lied to Kangxi

Chapter 410
The imperial court issued a decree, ordering Yuzhu to be the official imperial envoy and Bo Qi to be the deputy imperial envoy to go to Huguang to investigate the shortage of fire in the fan treasury.

The ministers of Sanzhi in the early Qing Dynasty were not empty-handed, but real-time officials of the palace guards.Its power and status are lower than those of the leading bodyguards and inner ministers, but higher than the first-class bodyguards.

In the bodyguard office, there are two ministers in charge of the three banners, two for each banner, a total of six.There are six internal ministers for each banner, a total of eighteen.

There is no quota limit for the ministers of scattered ranks. As long as the emperor is willing, they can increase or decrease anytime and anywhere.

It's just that Bo Qi's Minister of Sanzhi is a little embarrassed.Because, although he is a military general of the second rank, he only eats the salary of an official of the third rank, and he has no title.

Yuzhu, as the left servant of the household department, served as the imperial envoy, and he should sit in eight sedan chairs as usual.

As for Bo Qi, he really wanted to sit in a sedan chair.However, the imperial court has rules, civil servants sit in sedan chairs, and generals ride horses.

That's all.

After leaving the capital, Yu Zhu laid out a full set of guards of honor for a second-class marquis in accordance with the regulations.

This time, Bo Qi, who fell behind the big team, was completely suppressed in terms of his style, and immediately took on the role of a follower.

In order to deceive people's eyes and ears, there is nothing about the old thirteen in Mingfa's Shangyu.

However, the old thirteen sat cross-legged in Yu Zhu's Marquis carriage.

Yu Zhu took a sip of tea and sighed: "It's a good day at home, but it's hard to go out." He looked reluctant to part with the world of flowers and flowers in the capital.

The old thirteen smiled softly, and said: "The fourth brother said, I can come out this time, it is all thanks to you, he can only stare blankly."

When Yuzhu heard it, um, the fourth child is indeed a smart person, such a big matter, paper must not be able to contain the flames.

Instead of hiding it, the fourth child might as well tell the thirteenth child clearly.

In any case, it was the fourth brother who went to pass on the will, and let the thirteenth come out. This kind of favor is still very important.

Ever since Concubine Min passed away, Old Shisan has become a wild child that no one cares about.

Kangxi didn't care about him, the empress dowager was too lazy to care about him, the third child had a grudge against him, the eldest was thinking about defeating the second child, the fifth child and the seventh child only swept the snow in front of their own house, and the eighth child hadn't matured yet.

However, the old thirteen was lucky, he was handed over to Concubine De to be raised for a period of time, but he became a hard-core brother with the extremely difficult fourth.

When the fourth child chose to become the prince's party, the thirteenth child also became the Yinreng party as a matter of course.

"Master Thirteen, in fact, the emperor misses you. I just found a suitable time and made a few words. How dare I take credit for it?" Never take credit has always been Yuzhu's motto, and he has never forgotten .

The old thirteen shook his head, sighed softly, and said, "I'm not stupid, who is good and who is bad, don't you know?"

Yuzhu smacked, and there were bones hidden in the old thirteen's words, which somewhat resented Kangxi.

That's right, the old thirteen has been imprisoned for so long, no matter how deep the father-son relationship is, it will fade away.

After boarding the ship from Tongzhou, Yuzhu led the team along the Grand Canal, all the way south.

Because the Yellow River seized the Huaihe River, it encroached on the old course of the Huaihe River between Xuzhou and Huai'an, and entered the sea from the "big silt point" in Funing County.

Therefore, Yu Zhu had to rush to the Yellow River breach in Kaifeng Prefecture, Yucheng County in Guide Prefecture.

Just take a boat through the Grand Canal to Huai'an Mansion, then transfer to the official boat on the Yellow River, and then go westward along the river.

From Dangshan County in Xuzhou Prefecture to Yucheng County in Henan Province, traveling against the Yellow River, it takes two days if it is slow, and one day if it is fast.

In the investigation of cases by imperial envoys in this era, the imperial court often adopts the strategy of pointing east to west, and guiding to the north, in order to confuse the corrupt officials who are waiting to be investigated.

Yuzhu's southward investigation is a typical example.

On the surface, he was going to Huguang to investigate the case.In fact, when Yuzhu arrived at Dangshan County in Xuzhou Prefecture, and then suddenly turned to Henan, he could reach it in one day.

As a result, officials in Henan Province must have been caught off guard.

In the past, Yuzhu and Lao Shisan did not have the opportunity to be alone for such a long time.

This time, it was different, since boarding the ship, Yuzhu stayed with the old thirteen all day long.

Old Shisan knew better than anyone else that if Yuzhu hadn't taken the huge risk to speak up for him, he might have to be locked up for a few more years before he could come out.

Along the way, the food and daily life of the old thirteen were all arranged by Yuzhu properly, without any omission.

The fourth child loves the thirteenth child mainly spiritually and in major matters.

Yu Zhu focused on the trivial matters.

After the old thirteen boarded the ship, the daily dishes were not the same.

What's more, the concubine that Lao Shisan loves the most, also pretends to be the big girl of the house, and waits on him in his room.

The human heart is fleshy.

The old thirteen looked at Yuzhu again, and it was much softer than before.

On the bank of the Grand Canal, the naked trackers who were forcibly recruited by the government shouted heavy numbers, dragged heavy cables, and moved forward with difficulty.

Yuzhu stood on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, but his heart was extremely heavy.

It is only right and proper for the government to levy corvee for free and force grassroots people to help the passing official ships.

Alas, in this man-eating society, he is temporarily powerless to change anything.

He can only wait until the future, when the power of the imperial court is in his hands, and then completely overthrow it.

When you are temporarily unable to change, you can only integrate into it first, and then try to change it, which is what a wise man should do.

"They are all ant people, they are not worthy of pity!" Old Shisan walked behind Yu Zhu, sighed softly, and expressed his inner thoughts.

Although the old thirteen is known as the king of heroes, he is a nobleman after all.

The so-called butt determines the head, standing on the class standpoint of the old thirteen, it is certainly impossible to have the idea of ​​equal rights for the trillions of ants in the world.

Yu Zhu is very realistic, but he is still a good man with feelings!

The past at Xiaozhan is easier said than done, almost ten deaths and no lives!

In the early Qing Dynasty, the power of the imperial court was completely in the hands of the bannermen, which was by no means comparable to the late Qing Dynasty when the Qing Dynasty was hammered down by the great powers.

If Yuzhu wants to force the army to self-respect and finally change the world, not only is the risk extremely high, but the road is still long.

It is not an exaggeration to say that if there is a little carelessness, what awaits Yuzhu is the abyss of death.

However, although there are thousands of people, I will go on, Yuzhu has made up his mind.

The mountains and rivers are so beautiful, attracting countless heroes to bow down.It's all over, count the romantic figures, and look at the present.

When Yuzhu was playing chess with Lao Shisan in the cabin, Zhou Quan suddenly came to report that Bo Qi, the deputy imperial envoy, had secretly taken in two Yangzhou skinny horses, and they were enjoying themselves on his official ship.

Old Thirteen opened his mouth, wanting to say something.The words came to his lips, but because Bo Qi was the uncle of the fourth child, he finally swallowed them back.

It has always been the basic principle of Yuzhu to be an official, not to talk about the right and wrong of others.

Zhou Quan actually said that on purpose, for one purpose, to tarnish Bo Qi's image in Lao Shisan's mind.

The fourth child's family affairs are not complicated.

Due to the eccentricity and lack of heart of the concubine De, almost no one from the mother clan of the fourth child supported the fourth child, and they all stood on the side of the fourth child.

Yuzhu smiled, although he didn't say anything, he knew quite well in his heart.

Historically, after the fourth son came to the throne, the elders of his mother clan and his peers basically rewarded him with titles and waited to die, but none of them held real power in the court.

(PS: It's late, let's watch it first, there are more in the early morning.)
