lied to Kangxi

Chapter 42 Jiangning Cao Zhizhi

After eating, Yuzhu walked to the pier and took a walk to digest food.

Lin Yan'er had only walked more than [-] steps with her, and then she began to pant, which was obviously due to lack of physical strength.

Yuzhu couldn't help frowning, with such poor physical strength, how could he survive when he had a child and passed through the gate of hell?

In order to see Lin Yan'er's real physical strength, Yuzhu deliberately walked around the pier a few more times. Lin Yan'er soon lost her strength, and her feet seemed to be tied with shot puts, and she was almost unable to move her legs.

"You, eating too little and exercising too little, this is not going to work. From now on, you can eat in my room, and you can't just take a small bite. After eating, just walk with me to digest food." Yu Zhuban With a straight face, she reprimanded Lin Yan'er.

What can Lin Yaner say?She had no choice but to bite the bullet and be obedient.

Sun Chengsi hadn't come back until before going to bed.Yu Zhu didn't pay much attention to it, so he put his arms around Lin Yan'er, and soon fell asleep.

Sun Chengsi stayed in Yangzhou City for three consecutive days, had a good time, and then returned to the ship contentedly.

When seeing Yuzhu, Sun Chengsi bowed in embarrassment and apologized, which was a great loss.

Yuzhu smiled very understandingly, and said, "You and I are young people, and it's not comfortable to play now. Do you want to wait until you get old and lose your teeth, and you can only watch and drool?"

Sun Chengsi slapped his thigh fiercely, laughed and said, "Second Master Yu is indeed a wonderful person, not such a prudish sour scholar."

This is an era of public fighting for fatherhood, and everyone chooses their own path.

Yuzhu chose to study hard and take the Jinshi exam, the purpose is to get on the rocket of promotion, it is best to master the military power in the capital, and he must do something earth-shattering in Kangxi's later years.

Sun Chengsi is different.Sun Sike's first-class baron had already been taken over by Sun Chengyun, and Sun Chengsi didn't like reading, so he could only let it go.

Soon after the fleet left Yangzhou, it arrived at the large ship lock at the confluence of the Grand Canal and the Yangtze River.

Because, Admiral Jiangnan Xuezheng He Zichang is currently in Jurong County, Jiangning Prefecture, presiding over the annual examination of the scholars.

And Sun Chengsi was going to Suzhou and Hangzhou to handle goods, so Yuzhu temporarily parted ways with him.

After the fleet entered the Yangtze River, it sailed directly to Jiangning Prefecture, and then passed through the Qinhuai River to Jurong County.

The Qinhuai River is the main river in the Jiangning area, and it has been an important natural tributary of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River since ancient times.It has two sources, the east source is from Baohua Mountain in the north of Jurong County, and the south source is from Donglu Mountain in the southeast of Lishui County.

However, since the fleet was going to pass through Jiangning Mansion, Yuzhu had to go to the city to meet his elders.

Qingtai, acting as General Jiang Ning, is Yuzhu's direct eighth uncle.

In the Tong family, Tong Guowei had eight sons.Among them, Longkodo is the third child and Qingtai is the eighth child. They are half-brothers.

Qingtai, formerly served as the deputy commander and assistant leader of the Xianglan Banner in Manchuria.After Longkodo served as the admiral of the Nine Gates, he was transferred to Jiangning because of the rule that father and son brothers could not share the military power in the capital.

Among Longkodo's brothers, he only has a close relationship with his eighth brother Qingtai, and his relationship with the other six brothers is very ordinary.

If Yuzhu dared to pass the door and refuse to worship, it would be tantamount to leaving a big stain of disrespect to the elders.The officials and censors only need a bullet, and they can easily ruin his official career.

Jiangning Mansion is not an ordinary small place, not only General Jiangning is stationed in the city, but also Governor of Liangjiang, Chief Envoy of Anhui and Jiangning Weaving.

Because the entire Jiangnan Province is really too big, taxes accounted for more than one-third of the entire Qing Dynasty.During the time of Shunzhi, in Jiangnan Province, there were left and right envoys.

In the sixth year of Kangxi, Jiangnan Province was split into Jiangnan Jiangsu Province and Jiangnan Anhui Province, and governors were set up separately.Among them, the governor of Anhui was stationed in Anqing, and the governor of Jiangsu was stationed in Suzhou.

At the same time, Jiangnan Left Chief Envoy was changed to Anhui Chief Envoy, temporarily stationed in Jiangning, under the jurisdiction of Anhui Governor.Jiangnan Youbuzhengshi was changed to Jiangsu Buzhengshi, stationed in Suzhou, under the control of Jiangsu governor.

However, Admiral Jiangnan Xuezheng is still one, so he can only run around the whole Jiangnan.

After the official ship docked, I saw a middle-aged man in a blue brocade robe approaching with a smile on his face, and asked loudly: "Dare to ask your honor, the nobleman on board is Yu Er from the family of Master Longsan in the capital. Lord?"

The guard with a knife, who was already guarding next to the springboard, immediately raised his head and replied, "It's my second master!"

"Hey, villain Zhao Shan is the chief steward of Master Qingba's house who is acting as General Jiang Ning. He came to welcome Second Master Yu by order of my master."

After Yuzhu heard the news, he couldn't help smiling. He had sent someone to take a fast boat to inform Qingtai in advance of the news that he was coming to Jiangning.

Now, it is reasonable for Qingtai to send the chief steward of the mansion to welcome him.

As soon as the jade pillar landed on the ship, Zhao Shan took a few steps forward, bowed his waist and greeted him, "Villain Zhao Shan, please rest assured, Second Master Yu."

"Get up. My eighth uncle is an old man, okay?" Yuzhu asked Zhao Shan casually.

Zhao Shan bowed his waist and said with a smile: "Second Master Lao Yu, you are thinking about it. My master's body is very strong. He can pull a three-stone bow and lift a hundred-jin big stone lock."

Qingtai is also a military commander, and he insists on exercising his muscles and bones every day. His physical condition is much stronger than that of Long Kedo.

Yu Zhu nodded and said with a smile: "My Eighth Uncle's body is strong, and it's also thanks to your servants. Come and see."

"Hey." Hanshuang graciously agreed, and at the same time ordered the little girls to bring a few plates of silver that had been prepared earlier, and rewarded them one by one to the servants and women brought by Zhao Shan.

Five taels of silver ingots, everyone who sees them gets a share, and none of them will fall.

For a while, the servants who came with Zhao Shan were all smiling and happy, and knelt down together to thank Yuzhu for his generous reward.

There is no way, Longkodo and Li Si'er have made a lot of black-hearted money over the years, at least a few million taels.

When Yuzhu went to Jiangnan to study this time, Li Si'er generously gave 1 taels of cash and 20 taels of silver.

Not only that, but Li Si'er also told Yuzhu in private, don't be too petty, and don't be afraid of spending money.

Yu Zhu knew in his heart that in this era without human rights, corruption, bribery and black money have never been a problem.

What's really problematic: being on the wrong team, or knowing too much.

If Yuzhu can deceive Kangxi, at the critical moment of Jiulong seizing the heir, the world will be completely reversed.Hehe, no matter how much money Li Si'er makes, it's not a big deal.

However, if Longkodo still fell into the trap of the fourth elder brother Yinzhen.Then, even if Li Si'er didn't make any money, they would have to lose their families!

No way, who told Yinzhen to be mean and unkind, which is rare in history, and Longkodo knows too much?

Zhao Shan happily picked up the jade pillar, called servant Qi and the wench, and surrounded the convoy back to the general's mansion.

Qingtai still has no children at all, and has neither son nor daughter. He came to Jiangning to take up the post, and brought his second wife Guerjia with him.

On the way back to the general's mansion, Yuzhu suddenly heard the loud drumming, so he raised the curtains to watch the excitement.

I saw a luxurious mansion in front of the gate, decorated with lanterns and festoons, drums and music, and a sea of ​​people, very lively.

It is impossible for a real wealthy family in this era to have a plaque on the door of Li's house or Lu's house.

Seeing the bustle, Yuzhu became a little curious and asked Zhao Shan who was riding outside the car.

"Old Zhao, whose mansion is this?"

Zhao Shan cupped his hands respectfully on the horse and said: "Second Lord Huiyu, this is Jiangning Weaving Cao's Mansion. Their mansion is really extremely rich. The old lady Sun of Cao's Mansion is going to celebrate her 75th birthday. Listen to me It is said that everyone who comes to kowtow in front of the door, even beggars begging for rice, will be rewarded with five hundred coins."

His implication was very clear, he was envious of the wealth and wealth of the Cao family, but also felt sour in his heart, feeling that it was too extravagant!

"Oh." Yuzhu understood that Ganqing was Cao Yin's stepmother, Mrs. Sun's birthday.
