Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1289 Granting a house (seeking double monthly tickets)
"Moving?" Cao Yong was a little confused after hearing Elder Sixteen's words, "My family has no intention of moving, where did Lord Sixteen hear the news?"

Elder Sixteen was not in a hurry to say, he ate half a cup of hot tea before explaining the reason.

It turns out that in recent years, due to the rapid increase in the age-appropriate entrustment of the clan's children, many mansions are needed. In the early years, when the prince of the clan, Belle, was conferred, there were also many mansions that needed to be replaced. The emperor ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to clean up all the mansions under his name .

Today, Elder Sixteen wanted to report to the imperial court with the property booklet that had been sorted out. Just as Cao Song sent people to the House of Internal Affairs to put the tribute into the warehouse, Elder Sixteen brought the tribute list with him.

When Yongzheng saw that the white sandalwood arhat was listed on the list of tributes, he became very interested and made people take it to the imperial court. He was very happy.

"After the emperor saw the tribute list, the signature was Cao Song. Remembering that your old lady's birthday is also at the end of the month, he said that your family's population is increasing, and the three generations live together in the old house. It is not cheap, so he pointed out a spacious house for you. Home. Graciously, the emperor chose a house with a garden, saying that it is just a place for the old lady to retire, and arranged for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be responsible for the repairs. It should be almost completely repaired around the Dragon Boat Festival next year." Elder Sixteen said with a smile.

Cao Yong was very surprised. There were not many civil and military ministers who had been given houses, but most of them were Han officials whose native place was not in Beijing.

According to the rules of the capital, non-banner people are not allowed to buy property in the inner city.Even if a Han official is a servant of Shangshu, as long as he does not get grace to enter the banner, he is still a citizen and can only buy property in the outer city.

Most of the mansions in the city are official residences arranged by the Ministry of Household Affairs, with only the right to use and no ownership.

On the side of the House of Internal Affairs, there are two kinds of residences. One is the palaces of royal families like Prince Baylor. Except for the hereditary titles, the mansions belong to the princes and princes.

The other is the house given to the elders of the scholar's pavilion, and most of them only have the right to live.

Cao Yong hesitated and asked: "Is it the house where the Duke of the clan lived?"

Yongzheng wanted to reward the Cao family, but he would not bestow a mansion at the level of a palace.In that case, it will be troublesome to rebuild, and it will almost have to be rebuilt.In addition, the Emperor Shengzu had too many heirs, and there were many princes and princes all of a sudden. There is no old palace that is idle in Beijing.Therefore, Cao Yong asked this question.

Brother Sixteen smiled and took out two pieces of paper from his purse, and handed them to Cao Yong: "Look for yourself."

Cao Yong took it over and looked at it, but his eyes widened.

The location is Xidan Pailou. There are 130 six rooms in the main house, 56 rooms in the east house and 58 rooms in the west house. There is a garden and twelve pavilions.

Seeing Cao Yong's stunned look, Elder Sixteen snorted softly and said, "Didn't you always envy the scenery of the Lord's Mansion Garden? In the future, Master will envy you."

Those two pieces of paper were the house deed and the land deed, on which Cao Yong's name had already been written.

With this, the bestowed house becomes the Cao family's private house, which can be passed on to the descendants.

Cao Yong also worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in his early years. Although he can't say that he knows all about the properties below, such a large mansion is limited. After thinking about it for a while, he remembered the origin of this mansion.

This is the old house of Princess Kechun's mansion.

Princess Kechun is the daughter of Huang Taiji, aunt of Kangxi, married to Wu Yingxiong, the son of Wu Sangui.Later, when the San Francisco Rebellion broke out, Kangxi killed Wu Yingxiong and his son Wu Shilin.

The eldest princess was then a widow for 30 years, and Kangxi died in more than [-] years.

Later, both Princess Duanmin and Princess Rongxian took a fancy to this place, one was her elder sister and the other was her daughter. Kangxi was in a dilemma, but no one gave it to him, so the house was left unused.

Although he knew that Yongzheng's move was a kindness to his subordinates, Cao Yong was still quite moved.

Although Li's life experience is not a secret in the clan, there are only a limited number of people who are qualified to know.Above the officialdom, there are more unreasonable guesses.

Yongzheng bestowed the princess's old mansion to the Cao family, which also showed the royal position to the world.

Regardless of whether Li's name is on the royal jade plate or not, the emperor recognizes her identity.

The noise in the distance was still there, Elder Sixteen frowned, stood up and said, "This Tian Wenjing has a temper, I don't know why Zhang Tingyu didn't go over there, in order to prevent him from searching for someone, I think you should avoid it." , just let's go and have a look at this house."

Cao Yong didn't want to confront Tian Wenjing either, so he left a message for Jiang Jian, and followed Brother Sixteen out of the Household Office.

The Princess Mansion is near the Xidan archway, very close to the government office of the household department, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to ride a horse.

The history of this house can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, it was the "Changzhou Guild Hall", the place where Jiangnan Juzi lived after entering Beijing.Banner people entered the customs, and the people in the inner city moved to the south city, and this house was taken over by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After Princess Kechun got married, this place became the Princess Mansion.

Counting the time, the place has been idle for more than 20 years, but what is surprising is that after entering the house, it does not feel desolate, and the house and the blue bricks on the ground seem to have undergone certain repairs.

After asking sixteen elder brothers, Cao Yong proved his guess.

It was indeed repaired once in the second year of Kangxi. In the early years, I wanted to learn from the imperial clan and officials here, and later settled in Jingshan.

The two walked around the house, and looked at the garden at the back of the house.

After all, it was early winter and the vegetation was withered, but looking at the layout of the pavilions and pavilions, they were all very good.What is rare is that there is running water leading to the Kunyu River, which is extremely rare in the city.

Cao Yong is very satisfied, in addition to Lee, but also for himself.

Although the Cao family's house and palace are not too far away, they are not too close either. Every time there is a big court or a small court, it is extremely painful.

Changing to Xidan, at least it is close to the yamen and the palace.

"In a few days, the master will send you the blueprint of this garden if you can't find it. If you need to add or subtract anything, you can just talk. Since it is a one-time repair, it will be in place in one step. It will save you the trouble of changing it after you live in it." Ten Brother Six said.

Cao Yong remembered that there was a water pavilion in the garden of Zhizao Mansion in Jiangning that was Li's favorite, and after hearing Li's chanting a few times, he was a little moved.

Brother Sixteen saw him like this, smiled and said: "If you are worried about showing off, you can pay for it yourself. In that case, even if others want to talk about it, they can't find out."

Cao Yong nodded and said: "This is the best. Our old lady has been thinking about the south side recently. I really want to add two water pavilions in the garden."

Although both of them were wearing small woolen clothes, they both felt cold after walking outside for more than half an hour, so they came out of the Princess Mansion.

Elder Sixteen remembered something and said, "Although the granting of the house is not public, don't forget to ask people to say hello to Prince Jian's mansion. If you give Liu Gege a dowry like your old house, it is estimated that the mansion of the mansion will also do it." It's hard to die."

Brother Sixteen didn't mention it, Cao Yong hadn't thought of this yet.

Indeed, Cao's mansion is just a house with four entrances, and a cover room is added at the back, which is also for servants to live in.There are only two larger courtyards, the Orchid Court and the Wutong Court. The other courtyards have at most seven rooms, and they are all small rooms, with only three rooms at most.

The Kwai Courtyard where Tianyou lived was originally the residence of Cao Yin and Cao Yong before they got married, so the place is of course not spacious.

Cao Yong touched his chin, it seems that the house is indeed a problem.

I always claim to be indifferent to fame, but these days I think about the Minister of the Ministry of War and the upcoming Northwest War, and I am negligent about family affairs.

Although Tianyou's marriage has been decided, he always feels that he is still young and has some days before he can marry a wife, but in fact, if he gets married at the end of next year, there will only be one year left.

The sixteenth elder brother still has official business in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Cao Yong also needs to go back to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

When Cao Yong returned to the official office of the household department, the household department returned to its former tranquility.

Jiang Jian had already inquired clearly, and before Cao Yong asked, he reported the follow-up in the Yamen just now.

Tian Wenjing was making a fuss at the Henan Division, but Yin Jishan, the Henan Division doctor, was neither humble nor overbearing. He only replied in accordance with the rules and regulations, and did not ask anyone to invite Zhang Tingyu and Cao Yong.

Cao Yong and the sixteenth elder brother went out, but Zhang Tingyu stayed in the household department, but he never showed up.

I don't know who went to report the thirteenth elder brother, and Tian Wenjing stopped talking when the thirteenth elder brother came over.

Afterwards, Brother Thirteen asked the reason, but it was not Yin Jishan's fault.

According to the six-part practice, official affairs will be heavy in October, especially the various departments of the household department.

Although Tian Wenjing is the governor of Henan, the Henan Department of the Ministry of Households has the Secretary of the Ministry of Households, and he is not directly responsible to the governor of Henan.The progress of various errands on the Henan Division's side did not follow Tian Wenjing's thoughts.

However, Elder Brother Thirteen did not reprimand Tian Wenjing, instead he found a step for him and took him away.

Cao Yong heard it, and he knew it well.

Tian Wenjing's actions are mean, not unreasonable. If the Henan Department hadn't delayed Henan's related money and food documents, he would not have made trouble with the Ministry of Households.

Yin Jishan's move is also a choice.

Choose to be in the same spirit as Hubu, or choose to get married with Tian Wenjing.

He made a choice.

Slightly sleek, but not annoying, just the right size.

Look at Zhang Tingyu, already a bachelor, but still so patient.

Cao Yong reflected on himself, his energy-raising skills were not enough, if Brother Sixteen hadn't told him to go out, maybe he couldn't help but show up.

When Cao Yongluoya returned to the mansion, Zheng Hu was already waiting in the front yard.

Zheng Hu's complexion is very good, it seems that his life as an errand is going well.

He entered the capital of the Infantry Army. Although the senior officials there are of high rank, the military officers below are not of high rank, and they all do the thankless and tedious tasks of public security in the capital. In the protective gear camp, most of the people staying here are honest people with no background, so there is less official disputes and rivalry among colleagues.

Cao Yong said hello to Zheng Hu, then went to change his uniform and had a deep talk with Zheng Hu.

In the words of A Cao Yong, what he said today came out of his own mouth and entered Zheng Hu's ear.Zheng Hu listened to it, and if it was passed on, Cao Yong would not recognize it.

After hearing what Cao Yong said, Zheng Hu's complexion changed, his mind was in a trance, and he didn't eat well afterward.

Several times, when he poured wine for Cao Yong, he didn't notice the overflow.

Seeing him like this, Cao Yong couldn't help shaking his head, and said: "Don't be in a hurry, you don't have to be like this, it's good to think about it. No matter what you decide, I will support you..."
