lied to Kangxi

Chapter 392 Jade Phase
Zhuer, this is the first time Kangxi called Yuzhu that.

The connotation is so rich that it cannot be described in words.

Kangxi was getting old, he couldn't sleep anyway, and he was idle, so he took Yuzhu to talk about family affairs together.

"Old eighteen, he is already 14 years old." Kangxi dropped such a sentence suddenly.

As soon as Yuzhu heard it, he understood that the old emperor wanted his favorite son to have a grand wedding.

According to the rules of the royal family, the age of marriage for princes, except for the special case of the fourth child, is generally above 14 years old.

The fourth child was 13 years old, and when he was 14 years old, he married the 11-year-old Wulanara, who was actually only [-] years old, as his wife.

According to the marriage system of the imperial court, if it is reversed, it means that the ten-year-old Sifujin is very precocious and has already come to Chukui.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, it was rapidly Sinicized.

Han women usually get married after Jiji (jī).

Jiji Li, shortly after a woman's menarche.

Yu Zhu knew better than anyone that Si Fujin married too early and hurt his health.Therefore, the sons she gave birth to were not congenitally deficient and were not raised to adulthood.

"Old man, as for me, I have a little selfishness. I have always thought about my sister marrying into the Baylor Mansion with honor." Yuzhu didn't dare to say it clearly, and wanted to postpone the big wedding, but said it cleverly through vanity thing.

The eighteenth child was born to a concubine of a concubine of the Han Dynasty. He was conferred the title of Beizi, which is already extremely favored.

You know, the thirteenth, the fifteenth, the sixteenth, and the seventeenth are all empty-headed elder brothers of Wujue.

No matter how much Kangxi likes him, the old eighteen must make a justifiable contribution in order to be promoted to Baylor.

Yuzhu used this to talk about the matter, in fact, he wanted to protect his own sister.

If Yuyan was allowed to marry too early, not only would her body not yet mature, but the child she conceived would probably give birth to one child, and one would die prematurely.

The old Shiba and Yuyan have already been married, and there is no possibility of any changes.

On the premise that the question of principle was not questioned, Kangxi was led astray by Yuzhu.He really thought that Yu Zhu's vanity had exploded.

Well, the most favored son, if he made meritorious service and was promoted to Baylor, Kangxi's face would naturally be radiant!
It's just that if the old eighteen wants to make meritorious service, he must either practice martial arts or martial arts.

At present, there is no war for the time being, where can there be military merits?

Kangxi thought for a while, and said: "Old Shiba can still study, and it's not a problem to be bored in the study room all day long. Why don't you ask Old Shiba to go to the Ministry of Households to help you with errands?"

Yuzhu wanted to laugh, the old emperor was too defensive.

Kangxi Mingli said, let the old Shiba gang Yuzhu do the errands.In fact, the old emperor wanted Yu Zhu to make a great contribution, and then give the credit to the old eighteen for nothing.

At that time, the boss was the deputy commander, and he followed Kangxi's brother Fuquan to attack Galdan.

In fact, it is roughly the same consideration.Kangxi obviously wanted his elder brother to be blessed and gave up his military merits to his boss.

In the end, the boss, that heartless guy, who was eager for quick success and quick profit, lost his job, and actually bit Fuquan back.Since then, he has gained a big enemy.

Old Eighteen is Yuzhu's own brother-in-law, his elbows don't turn inwards, do they turn outwards?
However, Yuzhu didn't agree to it outright, but took the initiative to remind the old emperor.

"Old man, you also know Prince Yong's temper." Yu Zhu purposely brought up the matter with the fourth child.

As we all know, the fourth child is a person who likes to eat alone.As long as it is something he is in charge of, whoever dares to intervene will fight against him.

"Oh, oh, I almost forgot about this." Kangxi immediately came to his senses.

Isn't it natural for a household department to let two biological sons in?
Kangxi thought about it carefully, and among Yuzhu's other duties, it seemed that Cao Yin was in charge of the large shipbuilding business, which had the most hope of making a lot of money.

"How about letting the old eighteen go to Dagukou?" Kangxi thought about it, and finally put forward an idea that exactly matched Yuzhu's thinking.

Most of the so-called merits of Wenzhi are unrealistic for the old eighteenth prince.

You can't give old Shiba a county and let him manage it?
However, if the old eighteen is allowed to manage the shipbuilding of Dagukou and overseas trade, it will be easy to get back a lot of money.

In his later years, Kangxi was particularly fond of false fame, otherwise, he would not have thought of exempting the world from money and food.

When the imperial court was short of money, if the overseas trade that the old eighteen was in charge of brought in millions of silver, it would make up part of the lack of money.

This credit is big enough to be canonized as Baylor.

Kangxi is good at keeping in good health and hardly eats at night.

Yuzhu is different, he is young and hungry quickly.

When the monarch and his ministers were chatting, "Cuckoo..." Yu Zhu's stomach began to growl uncontrollably.

Kangxi couldn't help laughing, so he called Wei Zhu and asked him to go to the dining room to see if there was anything to eat?
However, no matter how stupid Yu Zhu was, he would not dare to let the old emperor watch him eat supper.

Kangxi also understood Yuzhu's difficulty, so he pretended to take a bowl of red dates and white fungus soup, and played with the spoon in the bowl, refusing to eat it all the time.

On the small table in front of Yu Zhu, there were all kinds of steaming food.

Hehe, the emperor is afraid of plotting against him, so he needs eunuchs to test the poison, what is Yu Zhu afraid of?

Waiting for Yuzhu to be used up, Kangxi held the teacup in his hand and asked him with a smile: "The third brother recommended it to me. His master, Da Heshou, will be the governor of Zhili. What do you think of it?"

Adept means master in Manchu.

Yuzhu's days by Kangxi's side were not too short.

This was the first time for Kangxi to ask Yuzhu for his views on personnel arrangements.

Let Heshou be the governor of Zhili?

Hey, the third child is trying to seize the power of the green battalion in Zhili!

He Shou, the current governor of Liangjiang, surnamed Shu Mulu, under the Zhenghuang banner of Manchuria.He used to be the third child's foreign expert, that is, the master of riding and archery.

The governor of Liangjiang, in charge of the three most affluent provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, has always been known as the first governor of the south of the Yangtze River.

In the past, Yuzhu had always been a little strange, why was the youngest who was capable of writing and martial arts abandoned by Kangxi?
Now, Yuzhu is in the middle of the game, and suddenly realizes it.

Alas, after all, the third child is still not as good at pretending as the fourth child, and he is impatient to seize the military power of Zhili.

Yuzhu really couldn't believe it, Kangxi couldn't understand the tricks in it?
However, since Kangxi asked such a question, Yu Zhu, who is also the minister of the South Study Room, must answer.

"Old man, I have never had any contact with He Shou, so I dare not make unreasonable remarks." Yuzhu told Kangxi in a disguised form that the person who controls the military power in the suburbs of Beijing must be a pure minister loyal to the emperor.

"There are no outsiders here, so it's okay for you to talk." Kangxi seemed to want to hear Yuzhu's opinion, and he pressed very hard.

Yuzhu also knew that what Kangxi was saying now was the truth.

However, in everything, I am afraid of thinking about it after the fact.

Therefore, Yuzhu was bitten to death. He has been working abroad for a long time, and he is not familiar with the situation in Beijing, so he can't speak nonsense.

In Kangxi's eyes, the Tong family members of his mother's family have their own characteristics.

Among the two uncles of the previous generation, Tong Guowei was a cunning old man.Tong Guogang is a reckless and reckless man.

Among his peers, Orondai is a megalomaniac and lawless.

Fahai, on the other hand, is more than cautious, but lacks courage.

As for Longkodo, he is greedy and extremely arrogant.

Among the grandchildren of the Tong family, Yuzhu is the most promising.

This kid Yuzhu never disobeyed in major matters, and always followed Kangxi's wishes.

However, sometimes, Yuzhu is very stubborn, and it is the kind of stubbornness that is not afraid of death.

Kangxi is already old, and he is no longer the killing and decisive temperament he was when he was young.

To put it bluntly, how many years does he have to live?How much time do you have to cultivate another pure minister who is as reliable as Yuzhu?

Above the temple, it has always been about strength!

Yuzhu needs Kangxi's trust in order to gain greater military power.

As for Kangxi, the most distressing thing now is that, except for Yuzhu and Longkodo, no matter who the military power in the capital is handed over to, he is not at ease.

Yuzhu's qualifications are very shallow, his prestige is seriously insufficient, and he has no threat to the imperial power.

Kangxi also deliberately suppressed Yuzhu's official position and real power, and when rewarding meritorious service, he mostly rewarded him with honors such as being promoted to the rank or bestowing Zhu Lun.

Yuzhu stubbornly refused to express his opinion, Kangxi was so choked that he rolled his eyes, and he had no choice.

"Hey, you are the little bastard sent by heaven to anger me." Kangxi scolded Yuzhu angrily.

But Yuzhu didn't take it seriously, and said with a playful smile: "Old man, your new Emei sparrow tongue, I'm quite envious, how many catties will I give you?"

To this day, Kangxi raised his eyes and looked around, and all the courts were ministers promoted by me.

As Kangxi got older and more authoritarian, no one dared to behave wildly in front of him.

However, Yuzhu is an exception.He dared to play tricks in front of the old emperor, begging for tribute openly.

"Little Monkey, if you are brave enough, I will give you two catties. However, I will tell the third child later that I have nothing to do if you do not agree with He Shou as the governor of Zhili." The black pot was pinned on Yu Zhu's head.

What doesn't Yuzhu understand?

The old emperor was not willing to give the third son military power near the capital.However, he didn't want to publicly offend the third child, so he deliberately pushed Yu Zhu out as a scapegoat.

In fact, Kangxi also learned [-]% of what Kangxi played.

Once, when Yongzheng was criticizing the scriptures, he deliberately said: If King Yi refuses to allow it, there is nothing I can do about it.

Isn't this bullshit?

Prince Yi's Lao Shisan wanted to keep the Cao family safe, but in the end, the Cao family was ransacked.

What Kangxi said was decision, not negotiation.

Yuzhu had no room for objection, so he had to keep quiet on purpose, which was acquiescence to the status quo of being blamed.

However, acting as a shield is actually not a bad thing for Yu Zhu.

Think about it, the old emperor publicly said that he couldn't hold back Yuzhu, didn't this help Yuzhu to gain prestige?

Yuzhu obediently took the blame, and Kangxi felt relieved, so he teased: "Your son is sleeping next door, do you want to go and see him?"

Hey, this is another sending proposition.

Cao Yisheng's son is the seed of a jade pillar. This is an absolute royal taboo and cannot be touched!
"Old man, I have to go out to inspect." Yuzhu found an excuse and bid farewell to the old emperor.

In the early morning, after Yu Zhu left the Qianqing Palace, he turned around and went to the South Study Room.

The South Study Room is not big, occupying only three small rooms, so the rotation system has been adopted all the time.

This south study room is an important place for dealing with state affairs.As Yu Zhu was the imperial minister, he had to show his badge to the guards if he wanted to enter the South Study Room.

After entering the room, Yuzhu went to meet Li Guangdi, the grand scholar who was in charge today.

Li Guangdi looked at Yuzhu, and said calmly: "Thank you for your hard work. You have just returned to Beijing, and you have been busy running around."

People in the officialdom, obedient but not listening, is like a blind man riding a blind horse, and sooner or later he will collapse.

As soon as Yuzhu heard it, he knew that at the gate of the yamen of the Ministry of Households, Li Guangdi had already heard the news that he had given the Ministry of Punishment a month's food and money.

"Master Hui Zhongtang, on the first day of your appointment as an official, you can't be troubled by others, can you?" Yu Zhu didn't answer directly, but explained the reasons clearly.

As soon as he took office, he ran into a case of leapfrogging to appeal. Yuzhu can't fall into it by himself, can't he extricate himself?

Li Guangdi pursed his lips and smiled in understanding.

To be honest, Yuzhu handled it just right, with a strong sense of proportion.

In the officialdom, the most taboo thing is to reach into the sphere of influence of the boss.

Li Guangdi is Yuzhu's teacher in the township examination, so it's hard to say anything in public.

Following Li Guangdi's order, Zhang Tingyu and Fang Bao were assigned to Yuzhu's subordinates.

Zhang Hengchen, that is an old acquaintance, no need to introduce.

Fang Bao, Yu Zhu had only heard of his name before, but had never met him.

In the history books, Fang Bao's evaluation is: prime minister in civilian clothes.

It's interesting to think about it. A veteran of the three dynasties and a prime minister in civilian clothes have now become Yuzhu's direct subordinates.

There is no way, although Yuzhu is very young, he is walking in the South Study Room (Minister).

But Fang Bao and Zhang Tingyu are just going straight to the South Study Room.

The difference is very similar to the relationship between the Minister of Military Aircraft and Zhang Jing of Military Aircraft.

The South Study Room is a study room in name, but in fact, it is the office structure of the prime minister.

Today's Yuzhu, although his status is much lower than Li Guangdi's, he already has the strength to stand up to court.

Of the three rooms in the South Study, Li Guangdi occupied half of the room, and Yu Zhu occupied the other half.

Yuzhu has already been promoted to work at the kang desk, Fang Bao and Zhang Tingyu, their desks are back to back next to the door.

However, not long after Yuzhu sat down, a guard came to report that the emperor had already boarded the Jianyu and was walking outside the gate of Qianqing.

So, Li Guangdi hurriedly led Yuzhu to the front of the imperial gate.

When he came to Yumen again, although Yu Zhu didn't speak, his heart was full of emotions.

Looking back, Yuzhu is already qualified to participate in politics!

There is no better way to change fish and dragons than to stand in front of the emperor and discuss major events in the world together!

However, Yu Zhu was a bit unfamiliar after all, and he wanted to stand in the back row.

Unexpectedly, Li Guangdi quickly grabbed his cuff, and reminded in a low voice: "The shift of the Minister of the South Study Room is the first among all the ministers."

Yuzhu understood in seconds, good guy, it turned out that Kangxi greatly promoted the status of Minister of Nanshufang.

From then on, some clever sycophants dared to brazenly call Yuzhu in private: Yu Xiang.

(PS: There is another update at night. If there are many monthly tickets, there must be an update in the early morning!)
