lied to Kangxi

Chapter 89

On the morning of the third day, Sang Qin, the cousin of the old twelve Yinxuan, came to the door in person and sent an invitation to Yuzhu.

Sun Chengyun also accepted the invitation, he ran to Yuzhu, and said with a smile: "Fifth elder brother, seventh elder brother, and twelfth elder brother, let's associate casually, and don't violate the taboos of the superiors."

Yuzhu smiled, Sun Chengyun's so-called superior, besides Kangxi, who else?
In fact, in his later years, Kangxi was a little neurotic and overly sensitive, and he always suspected that the prince Yinreng was going to carry out the Xuanwumen change.

Prince Yinreng is not only the son of the middle palace, but also the legitimate prince, plus he was doted on by Kangxi since he was a child, so he is unavoidably arrogant.

Suo'etu and his many sons were all killed because of Kangxi's suspicion without conclusive evidence, which is a bit too much.

Kangxi's doing this is tantamount to forcing Prince Yinreng to a dead end to seize the throne!
Yinreng made a lot of money and bought important ministers.Kangxi suppressed and killed people.Yinfeng made money again, and then bribed important ministers, and Kangxi suppressed and killed again.

As a result, the two most noble men in the world fell into the endless loop of power games and could not extricate themselves.

However, Kangxi's father-son quarrel is a great opportunity for Yuzhu to take advantage of, so he is naturally optimistic.

To put it bluntly, if the prince is not abolished, not only will the fourth elder brother have no chance, but Yuzhu will also not be able to take advantage of the opportunity to accomplish great things.

All the political turmoil after the 47th year of Kangxi was inextricably linked to the prince's abolition twice.

Yuzhu shook his folding fan lightly, and said with a smile: "They are all elder brothers who have no destiny with you."

Sun Chengyun nodded, and suddenly said: "Eighth brother, there are three princes and elder brothers who support him, and there are dozens of important ministers above the second rank. Sigh, in the long run, I am afraid that it is not the blessing of human ministers. "

Yuzhu glanced at Sun Chengyun. On the surface, this kid said he was just waiting to die, but in fact, he was as shrewd as a ghost.

Although Sun Chengyun's analysis did not expressly stated it, he understood all the taboos of Kangxi's later years.

To put it bluntly, the day when Yinfeng fell down was when the eighth elder brother was being rectified, regardless of anyone's will.

At the beginning, after Mingzhu collapsed, Suo'etu's situation also went from bad to worse.

Now, a group of the most talented men in the Hesheli family have all been killed, and they have never recovered from it.

Where is the eighth elder brother, the courtyard is full of important ministers, and the house is full of elder brothers, how can it last long?
On the day of Tuoerbi Jiazishou, Sun Chengyun came to have a Cantonese breakfast again, and then went out with Yuzhu.

Tuo Erbi is under the flag of Zheng (read the whole) Huang, and his home is located in Qitiao Hutong near Xizhimen in the inner city.

The Jialanyan Hutong where Yuzhu is located is just behind the Shuntian government office.They have to turn right from the Great Buddha Temple and cross the Desheng Bridge before they can go to Xizhimen.

Coincidentally, there are four temples in front of Yuzhu's house, Jingtu Temple, Liuli Temple, Fatong Temple and Dafo Temple.

After the carriage entered Qitiao Hutong, Tuo Erbi had already led his sons and waited outside the gate early.

Relying on Longkodo's strength, Yuzhu can walk sideways in Sijiu City.However, he is just a gifted person now, and his status is far behind.

Sun Chengyun is different, he is not only the first-class baron of Chaopin, but also the equivalent of the first-class Duke of the town.

Tuoerbi, a mere fifth-grade doctor, can't open the middle door to welcome him?
After the host and guest greeted each other, Tuoerbi accompanied Sun Chengyun and Yuzhu into the main room.

Yuzhu entered the room and saw, good guy, the old twelve has arrived.

Sun Chengyun knew in his heart that the old twelve had left the palace early in the morning, and he must have asked for leave in advance from the head master of the study in the name of Tuoerbi's birthday.

"Great Twelve Lord." Sun Chengyun has always been a low-key person, giving more salutes and speaking more obediently, which is absolutely right.

"Students pay homage to Twelfth Master." Yuzhu still pretended to be confused, and regarded himself as a scholar, which made people uncomfortable, but he couldn't find any major faults.

"Come on, are Niu Tai and Daxue here?" Yinxuan obviously missed Niu Tai and Daxue for a long time, and asked before Yu Zhu could stand up straight.

"Back to Lord Twelfth, Niu Tai came with heavy snow. But, afraid of shocking others, they all waited in the carriage and didn't dare to face each other outside."

Yuzhu knew that Yinxuan liked Niutai and Daxue, so he naturally brought them together.

Yinxuan got up and walked outside, leaving Yuzhu and Sun Chengyun behind.

Tuo Erbi was worried that Yuzhu would be angry, so he quickly said with a smile on his face, "Master Twelfth has such a temper, you two don't mind it, please bear with me."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "Master Twelfth likes small animals."

Sun Chengyun secretly laughed, the heavy snow like a pony, if it is a small animal, then what is a big animal?
Toerbi's family was not large, and after his wife passed away, he did not reunite.Today, Tuoerbi has three daughters besides his only son.

This Tuo Erbi is not good at words, he stutters a bit, no wonder he is still only a fifth grade doctor in his sixties.

Old Twelve's cousin, Sang Qin, hesitated for a long time, couldn't hold it back any longer, cupped his hands and said, "To tell the truth, my family has a big problem, and I want to ask Second Master Yu for your help."

Yu Zhuxin is a little strange, even if the old twelve is an empty-headed elder brother without a title, he must have some contacts inside and outside the palace, right?

Sang Qin had already opened his mouth, and he spoke smoothly. He glanced at the silent Tuoerbi, looked back at Yuzhu, and said in a low voice, "Second Lord Yu, you said that the palace wants to choose a maid. The third younger sister happens to be on the list. For more than ten years, the imperial concubine has presided over the selection of girls and maids in the palace. I would like to ask Second Master Yu to help me send a message to the imperial concubine to find a good time , let’s put down the brand of our family’s third girl.”

"Second Master, don't worry, my family will definitely have a big thank you." Sang Qin was speaking, and hit a thousand times.

How could Yu Zhu receive a gift from Sang Qin? He quickly supported Sang Qin, and said repeatedly: "Uncle Sang, don't mind, what are you doing?"

Yuzhu knew in his heart that Guo Luomafa, Tuoerbi, the elder twelve Yinxuan, was indeed in big trouble.

Even though Old Twelve is Kangxi's own son, so far, he hasn't even sealed a son.To put it bluntly, the old twelve was in the palace, so he couldn't talk at all.

To make matters worse, the old twelve's biological mother, Wanliu Hashi, was still an unknown concubine.Her status in the palace was too low, and she couldn't get involved in the drafting of girls or the selection of palace ladies.

Sun Chengyun was worried about Yu Zhu's embarrassment, so he said, "Uncle Sang, even if you spend enough money on the affairs of the palace, no one dares to guarantee it."

"Hey, Mr. Sun, look at what you said. Even if I don't know the rules, can I not know this?" Sang Qin was worried that Yu Zhu would not help, so he whispered, "I was also forced to nowhere. The Twelfth Lord is too upright, and he is not willing to ask the emperor for some personal matters."

Sun Chengyun secretly thought it was funny, Tuoerbi's family had been forced into a corner, and they all begged to Yuzhu, but they still wanted to cover up the embarrassment of being powerless.

Cough, Yinzhen really has the ability to settle this matter, do you still need Sang Qin to beg Yuzhu?

What does Yu Zhu not understand?

Yinxuan knew about this a long time ago, but he was too embarrassed to talk to him, so he slipped away early on the pretext of watching the heavy snow.

Moreover, Yuzhu has reason to suspect that Yinxuan insists on inviting him to celebrate his birthday, maybe it is a hole that has been dug long ago, right?

Cough, if you want to ask someone to do something, it's better for Yinxuan, he withdraws first, what's this called?

Sangqin's third sister is going to choose a court lady, not a draft girl.

According to the will of Kangxi 40 years ago, the rules for drafting girls have been changed.The daughters of Manchurian, Mongolian and Han Army Eight Banners officials who are above the fourth rank must participate in the palace draft girls when they are between the ages of 13 and 17.

The reason is actually very simple, Kangxi's taste has changed.

According to Kangxi's public statement, most of the daughters of banner officials below the fourth rank are illiterate or semi-literate and cannot chat well at all.

Yuzhu didn't believe Kangxi's nonsense.To put it bluntly, the lower the official position, the uglier the daughter in the family.

Because, low-level banner officials, in fact, have no money to take concubines.

Without vigorous genetic modification, how could the daughter's family be reborn?

As for the girls of the upper three banners who are below the fourth rank, they must participate in the selection of palace maids by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Old photos of the Qing Dynasty are widely circulated on the Internet, and Yuzhu has seen many of them.

Even Emperor Guangxu's favorite Concubine Zhen was, to be honest, rather ugly.

Objectively speaking, if Tuerbi had a wider circle of friends on weekdays and was willing to spend money to network in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he would not be so embarrassing.

To put it bluntly, if the old twelfth man can get on line with the powerful chief eunuchs in the palace, such as Liang Jiugong or Wei Zhu, it is just a matter of their words, there is no need to ask Yuzhu at all.

Yuzhu finally understood that Tuerbi's family was really poor and couldn't afford to take care of the powerful people in the palace.

It is said that asking Liang Jiugong to do something is just a stepping stone to meet and have a cup of tea, which is 1 taels of silver.Wei Zhu's status is slightly lower, starting at 8000 taels.

"Uncle Sang, to tell you the truth, my ama will meet the emperor in the palace today. You have opened the resume of the third girl in your family, and I will send someone to deliver a letter to my ama, let me Ma, give the imperial concubine a solid message, will it work?" Seeing that Sang Qin was about to hit him again, Yu Zhu quickly raised his hand to stop him, "However, let me keep the ugly words in my head first, and the final success of this matter will depend on it." If it doesn’t work, it depends on the right time, place and people. Amma and I don’t need Uncle Sang’s management here. If we really don’t need it, don’t be polite to us. If you agree not to manage us, I will Just send someone to deliver the letter. If you don’t agree, then you can only hire someone else.”

Sun Chengyun nodded frequently, Yuzhu's favor is too beautiful, it can be called a model of two-faced.

Others don't know, how can Sun Chengyun not know?
Noble Concubine Tong Jia has no son, no daughter, and no favor, and has been living alone in the palace.

Because Longkodo has been very close to Concubine Tong Jia since she was a child, she likes Yuzhu very much. She often rewards Yuzhu with tea, meals, oriental pearls, agates, calligraphy and paintings, and antiques.

Sun Chengyun's heart became clear.

Concubine Tong Jia deliberately rewarded Yu Zhu with a lot of priceless treasures, because she was afraid that after her death, her good things would be cheaper than Tong Guowei's old Tong family.

Kangxi was rich all over the world, so it was impossible for him to think about the idea of ​​Concubine Tong Jia. Most of the relics would be divided into two pieces, one was buried with him, and the other was rewarded to Tong's family as a souvenir.

It's just because Guifei Tong Jia didn't want to be Kangxi's concubine at all.Tong Guowei was reluctant to part with the overwhelming wealth of his relatives, and forced her, a concubine, into the palace, wanting to replace the vacancy of the fourth elder brother's adoptive mother, Empress Xiao Yiren, and also become empress.

However, after Empress Xiaoyiren died, Kangxi no longer had the idea of ​​establishing an empress.Tong Jiashi has been staying in the position of imperial concubine, and has not moved for more than ten years.

Yu Zhu has already said this, what can Sang Qin say, he can only admit it with his nose, and firmly remember this great favor.

After Sang Qin made a list of his three sisters' resumes, Yu Zhu called Wu Jiang in.

"Wu Jiang, you go to guard the master outside the Shenwu Gate. When you see the master, you give him this list. Please, the master must give a solid message to the imperial concubine, and you must find a way to put down the sign."

In this era, the clan Jueluo and relatives and princes all entered the palace through the Shenwu Gate, while ordinary civil and military officials could only go through the Donghua Gate.

"Hey." Wu Jiang held the list, repeated it, and then turned and left.

"Thanks... thank you." Seeing Yu Zhu's straightforwardness, Toerbi felt anxious, stammered for a long time, and finally choked out a word of thanks.

Sun Chengyun didn't say much all the time, but he admired Yuzhu's handling method to death.

In front of Tuo Erbi and Sang Qin, Yuzhu sent someone to find Long Kedo to give the imperial concubine a message without saying a word.

To put it bluntly, among the princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, who can compare with such a high efficiency?

Doing things for others, whether it can be done or not is another matter, the key is to have a correct attitude!
Sun Chengyun is a bystander.

It stands to reason that Tuoerbi and his son should wait until the birthday banquet is about to end before setting up a room to have a secret talk with Yuzhu.

It's fine now, the wine hasn't started drinking yet, so I asked for it first.

This shows that Tuoerbi and his son were worried that Yuzhu would drink too much and refused to help.

After all, they are their own daughter and sister, and they are reluctant to let her enter the palace to endure hardships. Tuo Erbi and his son dare not gamble, let alone lose!

According to the custom of this era, birthday banquets are held at noon, while wedding banquets are held at dusk.Marriage, also at dusk.

Yuzhu readily agreed to help, Tuoerbi and his son were naturally overjoyed, Sang Qin almost said his thanks, Tuoerbi stuttered a lot, but he frequently bowed his hands, showing his attitude of gratitude.

Several people chatted for a while, Tuoerbi's in-laws, that is, Sang Qin's father-in-law, came, they had to plead guilty, and then went to greet them together.

Seeing that there were no outsiders in the room, Sun Chengyun whispered, "Why is the Twelfth Master different from the one in the legend?"

Yuzhu knew that Sun Chengyun was afraid that the wall would have ears, so he didn't dare to speak clearly.

Elder Brother Twelve really did not do it very well.

Tuoerbi has three daughters, and the eldest daughter is Yinxuan's biological mother.The youngest daughter is Tuoerbi's old daughter and Yinxuan's real aunt.

The matter of his aunt's election as a court lady should have been handled by Yinxu himself, but it was better for him to slip away by himself.

However, since it is here, there is no reason to just leave.

Yu Zhu had no choice but to calm down and wait for the birthday feast to begin.

Not long after, Yinxuan came back, but his face was a little strangely red.

"Thank you very much, I will remember this great favor." Yinzhen clasped his fists solemnly.

How could Yuzhu dare to accept the gift from the prince's elder brother, he hastily took a big step, avoiding Yinxuan's gift in time.

"Oh, to be honest, I was forced to the point of nowhere. Liang Jiugong wanted 5 taels of silver, and Wei Zhu wanted 4 taels. Cough, I'm an empty-headed brother who hasn't opened a house yet. How can I get so much money? ?" Yinxuan shook his head, the expression on his face was so rich that it couldn't be described in words at all.

"To tell you the truth, I went to beg to see Ama Khan. But I haven't seen him all this time. Hmph, it's obviously Liang Jiugong's fault." Yinxuan wanted to scold her mother indignantly, but she didn't dare to scold her in front of Yuzhu. Not to mention the sour taste.

Sun Chengyun didn't believe Yinxuan's nonsense.

Now is not the era when the chief inspector of ceremonies in the Ming Dynasty held great power. Even if Liang Jiugong borrowed 1 courage, he would not dare to stop the prince elder brother from asking to see the emperor.

To put it bluntly, in fact, Kangxi didn't want to see Yinxuan, it's as simple as that.

There are always rumors outside, how a certain prince is so favored.Sun Chengyun, a super pragmatic guy, has always only looked at four points.

Is there any conferment of titles on the mansion?Is the title high?Is there a management department?Is the Kaifu silver and Huangzhuang rewarded big?

Don't fix those false things, just talk about the actual benefits!

Why are dozens of important court officials gathered around the eighth elder brother Yinhu?

To put it bluntly, in addition to the support of several younger brothers, as well as Xianming, there is also an inseparable relationship with the eighth elder brother who was exceptionally named Baylor.

Among the more than a dozen adult princes today, apart from the crown prince, apart from the elder brother and the third elder brother who were named county kings, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, the seventh elder brother and the eighth elder brother are all Baylors.

After Baylor was sealed off, there were not only private mansions, but also a large number of royal officials, as well as large-scale Huangzhuang and shops, which could receive money and food.

It is even more difficult to manage a department if there are people and money.

This is the real strength of Kaifu Jianya!
