Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1355

For Kuadai, when he received the order to go to the south of the Yangtze River, he almost danced and was secretly delighted.

Along with the decree of inspecting the river works, there is also the secret decree of Yongzheng, and the fourth prince Hongli will accompany him to the south.

As long as you are not a fool, who doesn't know that the fourth prince is the default prince.

It's just that the Shengzu Dynasty seized the heirloom too fiercely, and today it's not lenient, no one dares to hug the fourth prince's thigh openly, but it's so, there are countless people who have the opportunity to curry favor secretly.

After two and three blows, the Tong family has already declined.

Kuadai, the younger brother of Empress Xiaoyi, the dignified uncle of the country, was raised like a little woman. He was the last one in the six books, and he was a man with his tail between his legs.

As for Cao Yong's work as a minister of the Ministry of Households, Kua Dai didn't take it seriously.

The emperor has always loved the monk clearly, and the Cao family is hot, so he will not compete with it so shamelessly.

No matter how much the emperor hates the Tong family, he has to stay on the line; if he hugs the fourth prince's thigh, the Tong family might get up at any time, after all, the Tong family's title is still there...

Cao's new house, Jiuruyuan.

This is the third entrance of Xinzhai Middle Road, where Cao Yong and his wife live.

The name of the hospital "Jiu Ru" is taken from "The Book of Songs Xiaoya", which means longevity and longevity.

Although Cao Yong and his wife are not yet ready to be confused, but in this era, when the children are married, it will be time to have grandchildren.Therefore, when Cao Yong chose the name of the hospital, he delineated this.

In the upper room, Chu Yu was packing up her things, all in duplicate.The emperor's order came in a hurry, and today the decree was delivered, and Cao Yong and his son will leave Beijing tomorrow, going north and south, which made Chu Yu feel a little panicked.

Seeing his wife frowning, Cao Yong shook his head and said: "Tianyou has grown up, so he can't always be in front of him... It's rare that the emperor treats them differently. We should be happy when we are parents..."

If she works next to the prince, she will most likely follow the prince to open the mansion and become a team member of the prince's mansion.

Due to Hongli's status, unlike ordinary princes, Tianyou may become the next emperor's team.

The emperor's move can be said to be to support and preserve the Cao family, after all, the emperor and the courtiers.

Chu Yu is a loving mother, thinking of the rumors of floods in the south of the Yangtze River, how can she be happy.

In addition, her husband's departure is also for flood prevention, so it's no wonder she can feel relieved.

Cao Yong knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he sighed and said: "If Ma'am is like this again, the old lady will not be able to hide it... Tianyou is with the fourth elder brother, what danger can there be... That is Li Wei's territory , and there is Xiaoer..."

Chu Yu nodded, feeling at ease.

That's right, the prince went out in micro-clothes, and I don't know how many people followed him secretly.It was said to be inspecting the river workers, but no one dared to lure the prince into danger, but there was really no danger.

On my husband's side, the outside of the pass is not as good as the south of the Yangtze River, and the waterways are limited, but it is much better.

But why does she still feel uneasy...

Chu Yu suddenly thought of something wrong, quickly raised her head, and said, "Master... I'm going to pay my respects to Prince Jian's residence at the end of July... Will Master and Tianyou come back?"

Cao Yong was taken aback when he heard the words, half a day after receiving the order, he thought about how to behave outside the pass, but forgot that there was still this important event at home.

My side is fine, Shengjing is closer to the capital, and I am the head of the household department. If the flood control and disaster relief are properly arranged, it is possible to return to Beijing before the end of July; Moon can't come back no matter what.

"Tianyou can't come back. I'll have to wait and see what's going on in Liaohe before making a conclusion... No matter whether our father and son come back in time, everything will remain the same...Please help fourth brother and Hongshu..."

These two, one is the uncle and the other is the uncle, they are the candidates who can come forward to help God.

Chu Yu had no choice but to agree with it with a nod.

The father and son are on a business trip, Li's side can't hide it, so they can only change their rhetoric.

On Cao Yong's side, it is said that he was ordered to go out of the customs to inspect the land and taxes outside the customs; on the other side of Tianyou, it is said that he was ordered to guard the four princes to inspect the two rivers and salt taxes.

True and false, only to cover up the flood.

Mrs. Li really believed it, and didn't explain anything to her eldest grandson, but was very worried about her son.

Seeing that he was about to enter the ambush, even though it was cooler outside the pass, Cao Yong's body was not as good as when he was young, and he had a serious illness a year ago, and now he looks too thin.

The old man was worried, so he had to tell his wife to bring more anti-heat medicine, and filled most of the ginseng slices from his own side for his son, so that he could relieve fatigue when he was tired, and he must take care of himself.

Cao Yong was grateful for the love of a loving mother, but he only said it was right, and when he looked back, he became a strict father again in front of his son.

"You are a bodyguard, you only need to fulfill your responsibilities as a bodyguard, don't talk too much about other things... Fourth elder brother has his own ideas, and you don't need to have your own ideas when you work in front of him..." Cao Yong confessed.

It's not that I don't want my son to become a dragon, it's just that Tianyou's age and experience are here. If he is too late, it will easily expose his shortcomings. It's better to be a respectful and obedient courtier.

If you are a confidant, you have to weigh the weight.Since ancient times, there have been a few counselors around the king who died well. Even if the fourth elder brother is not the king now, he will be in the future. The risk is too great.

In the eyes of the ears, it is close, and the credit has been built, but it is easy to be underestimated.

For siblings, forget about it.

The emperors of the Qing Dynasty did not pay attention to siblings, but the difference between master and slave.

Even if Yongzheng and the fourteenth son have the same father and mother, one is the emperor's master and the other is a servant; not to mention God bless a little foreign minister.

After God blesses, all you need to do is to work hard.

Not the most intimate with the emperor, as long as it is indispensable.

Tianyou respectfully listened to his father's instruction, and thought of him in his heart.

Before the emperor ascended the throne in the morning, Cao's mansion had a friendly relationship with Yongwang's mansion, but his father never took advantage of this to step over the thunder pool and strictly abide by the duties of a monarch and a minister.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, there have been many trusted ministers, such as Nian Gengyao and Longkodo in the past; Li Wei and Tian Wenjing now.

However, Nian Gengyao and Longko stole their homes and seized titles, but they did not end well; Li Wei and Tian Wenjing became sharp knives in the hands of the emperor and offended many powerful scholars.

Let alone the emperor, Li Wei and Tian Wenjing have backers; if the emperor... what will happen to these two...

Tianyou felt his back go cold, and understood his father's intention...

While the father and son were talking, a boy came to report, and someone outside the door handed over a post, please see.

That is to say, the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, Cao Yong could not be a polished commander, and then he went out of Beijing, as well as one or two principals and four miscellaneous officials from the Department of Officials of Dushuiqing, Ministry of Industry.

Those who are posting posts outside the door are the few who will accompany him out of Beijing tomorrow.

Looking at the signatures under the greeting post, one of them, whom Cao Yong knew, was Yongliang, the clan uncle of the Zuozhu brothers.

Cao Yong remembered that Yongliang was the treasurer of the seventh grade, and he had a serious job. How did he become a miscellaneous employee who traveled with the principal?
The errands in charge of the Ministry of Industry are related to the mausoleum of the emperor and empress, and related to the common people. Many projects are mostly outside Beijing, and most of the low-level officials of the Ministry of Industry are out of Beijing.

At this time, travel is not easy, and business trips are not a good thing.

It’s good that the rank is high, and there are local officials who are filial; for small officials, they only have to work hard, and even have occasional credit for hard work and effort, but it is mostly for the icing on the cake of the accompanying superiors, not for themselves.

Although Cao Yong was surprised in his heart, he didn't say anything, so people led the six people to the west hall of the front yard to meet the guests.

The six people came to ask for instructions on tomorrow's travel and assembly time. Cao Yong immediately hung up the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he was the immediate boss of everyone. Naturally, everyone took Cao Yong as the leader.

It was the two principals who were talking, and Yong Liang, who was at the end of the four miscellaneous staff, bowed his head in silence, and did not deliberately show that he knew Cao Yong.

Cao Yong here, said the time and place of departure tomorrow morning.

However, after everyone left, Cao Yong asked Tianyou about Yongliang.

Sure enough, Tianyou knew about this matter. It turned out that the fact that Yongliang was expelled by his stepmother and returned to his house was not impeached by the imperial censor.

In addition to Yongliang's biological mother's several disturbances, in the eyes of uninformed people, it seems that Yongliang is greedy for wealth and honor. Even if he is rejected by his wealthy stepmother, he is unwilling to return to his poor biological parents' home to fulfill his filial piety.

Being unfilial and unrighteous, Yong Liang was naturally rejected by the Shangguan.

He lost his real job as a treasurer and became a miscellaneous employee in the Ministry of Industry.

For some reason, Cao Yong recalled the first time he saw Yong Liang, but he was just a boy; thinking about how much Yong Liang had taken care of Zuo Zhu, he couldn't bear it.

He thought for a while, and said: "Zuo Zhu didn't say anything, did Yong Liang ever defend himself in the yamen?"

Tianyou shook his head, and said: "Probably not, but Zuo Zhu was full of grievances for Yongliang twice, and almost fought with others. Zuo Zhu should speak harshly, and don't Zuo Zhu mention the elders, so that Zuo Zhu can be honest."

Regardless of whether Yong Liang treats Zuo Zhu sincerely or pretends, a family uncle is not afraid of causing trouble to him...Keep him, but it can somewhat restrain Old Madam Ning...

The next day, after breakfast, Cao Yong went to Fuyuantang to say goodbye.

Changsheng, Tianhui, and Tianbao were all there, and Cao Yong had to give orders to each of them before leaving the house.

Several officials from the Ministry of Industry, Cao Yong made an appointment with them to gather downstairs in Andingmen.

Yiduli, who was traveling with him, also made an appointment at Andingmen.

On Cao Yong's side, there were not many people traveling with him, but they were all needed. There were Zhang Yi, Cao Man, Wei Hei and Cao Jia, and four other guards who were trained by Cao Jia.

Although the emperor didn't have a decree to ask Cao Yong and Yidu to set up a post, Cao Yong thought about it, but he didn't ask someone to prepare a carriage, but went out on horseback with everyone.

When I arrived at Andingmen, Yiduli and several officials from the Ministry of Industry had already arrived.

Yi Duli's face was flushed, and he was in a good mood, chatting and laughing with several officers.

However, several judges were cautious and carefully talked with them.

When everyone saw it, they cooperated together, left Beijing from Andingmen, and followed the official road all the way to the north.

Cao Yong and Yidu walked side by side, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.

Cao Yongdao: "Unexpectedly, after so many years, I still have the opportunity to go on a business trip with my lord..."

Yi Duli laughed and said, "Anyway, I'm with Fu Ruo..."
