Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1359
The thirteenth elder brother sat at the bottom, and when he heard Yongzheng's gnashing of teeth, he felt a chill down his back.

He didn't know at the time that just after the Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor was annoyed by Jiangnan's Zhezi three times, and each time became more angry.

For the first time, he thought that the emperor's tolerance for Fan Shiduo had come to an end, but then he saw the emperor raised the matter high and put it down low.

The same is true for the second and third time.

Today is the fourth time, and there will be no surprises if I think about it.

Sure enough, Yongzheng threw the booklet onto the imperial case, rubbed his forehead and said, "I don't worry about any of them, and it's this time again..."

Compared with the previous nothingness, the emperor can't say nothing this time.

He thought for a while, then frowned at the thirteenth elder brother: "Cao Song has been on the Northwest battlefield, is it more murderous?"

The thirteenth elder brother couldn't help being startled when he heard this.

He thought it was Fan Shiduo and Li Wei who attacked each other, how could it involve Cao Song?

The battle between governors and governors, and between governors and governors in the Jiangnan officialdom has long been a routine. If the Jiangnan officialdom is really monolithic, then don't worry about this one on the dragon chair.

It was Hades fighting again, and the kid suffered.

The thirteenth elder brother woke up, and hurriedly said: "I'm afraid it won't happen. Cao Song was a bodyguard in his early years. Even in the northwest, he was ordered to guard the commander of the Chinese army. There is no chance to face the enemy... Besides, that kid is with I grew up beside Cao Yong, even if I practiced in the south of the Yangtze River for the past two years, I wouldn't have such courage all of a sudden..."

When Yongzheng heard the words, his expression softened a little, and he said, "I don't think so." He smiled and said to Brother Thirteen, "Speaking of which, is this Cao Song related to the Thirteenth Brother and Sister?"

Brother Thirteen said: "His biological mother and Hongtun Eriang are cousins ​​of the same ancestor, so they are not far relatives by marriage."

Yongzheng nodded and put the matter aside.

The thirteenth elder brother retreated from the imperial court, somewhat uneasy in his heart.

He was not afraid that Cao Song would cause trouble, but that the emperor would push Cao Song to the stage in order to protect Fan Shiduo.

He knows the emperor's temperament, and he is most protective of his weaknesses.

The meritorious family of the Fan family did not take part in the battle for the heir apparent in the early years, but in fact secretly joined the fourth elder brother. Otherwise, the fourth elder brother would not push Fan Shiduo to the position of governor of Liangjiang after Fan Shijie's attack superior.Even Fan Shijie, even if nothing more than the governor, was appointed as a bodyguard and worked as a errand in the palace.

If you really hate the Fan family, how could it be so?
Moreover, Fan Shiduo's layout in the south of the Yangtze River is more or less driven by the emperor.

Even if he did it, the emperor would not really put him to death.

Generations of meritorious deeds like the Fan family, but their talents withered, the emperor used it decently, and he didn't have to worry about losing his tail.

The rivalry between Li Wei and Fan Shiduo became more and more intense, and Fan Shiduo also made a lot of money in Jiangnan. The reason why the emperor didn't get angry was nothing more than worrying about the floods in Jiangnan this year.

If there is a flood, Fan Shiduo, governor of Liangjiang, will also be able to "calm public anger" at that time.

If the flood is not serious, then Fan Shiduo's crime will not be serious.

In order to beat Jiangnan's ministers, maybe the emperor will have [-] big boards.

Li Wei is the emperor's confidant, and if he intends to use him to suppress the south of the Yangtze River, he won't be too shameless. The one who accompanied Fan Shiduo to lose his official position should be Li Wei's right-hand man, Cao Song...

Two days later, Cao Yong and Yiduli's Zhezi were sent to Yuqian in an expedited six hundred miles.

Cao Yong's book is worth mentioning, the embarrassing position of the Six Departments of Shengjing is known to everyone, and most of the ministers and workers are old and weak, which is not unusual; Yi Duli's book made Yongzheng half dead.

Garrisoning the Eight Banners outside the customs is the most important cornerstone of the Qing Dynasty.

Even if there is any instability inside the pass, as long as the Eight Banners are stationed outside the pass, there will be capital to make a comeback.

Unexpectedly, it is not only the Beijing Brigade Eight Banners who are lazy, but also the old roots of the Eight Banners.

Yongzheng had long seen that the clan kings were not pleasing to the eye, but he knew the severity and it was difficult to deal with them.Even if the clan is beaten, it is mostly the sons and grandsons of the ancestors.

In this way, the other clans only thought that the emperor was avenging the great revenge when he seized the heirloom, and it was the royal family's housework, and no one interrupted without knowing it.

But the real strength of these brothers in Yongzheng is no match for those old-fashioned palaces.

Those palaces have discussed politics in the early years, and there are many assistants under their names.

Actually, the number of people was less than [-]%...Yong was very annoyed on the front, but he was pleasantly surprised in his heart.

Elder Brother Thirteen knew that the Emperor was afraid that he would make a big move, and his brother-in-law Yi Duli had stabbed a hornet's nest this time.

It's not easy for him to excuse Yiduli, he can only mention the flooding of the Liaohe River, please the emperor to focus on Shengjing's flood control first.

Yongzheng thought about it too, since he caught the tail of the clan kings, he couldn't do it anytime soon; the disaster prevention work in the northeast couldn't be delayed, otherwise if the floods really happened, the clan kings would have another excuse.

Although there are many officials in the capital, there are many errands on them, and there are some people who can be transferred; those alternate officials... think about it or forget it. If they really want to be used, how will they be placed after a few months?

After thinking and thinking, Yongzheng decreed that [-] strokes should be dispatched from the six departments to be sent to Shengjing as errands, and Cao Yong was ordered to be dispatched from various government offices in Shengjing due to insufficient manpower.

As for the Eight Banners garrison, Yongzheng was very hesitant.

The capital is garrisoned by the Eight Banners guarding the capital, and it is not easy to move lightly. It seems that only Generals Heilongjiang and General Jilin have selected manpower.

Then, the eight banners garrisoned in Shengjing have been corrupted to this point, where can the eight banners garrisoned in Heilongjiang and Jilin be better?
Do you want to take advantage of the child to attack at the same time?
While hesitating, there was an urgent report to the front of the resistance.

On May 27, the Jiujiang section of the Yangtze River broke its embankment, and several followers of the prefect of Jiujiang died without water beside the embankment.

Yongzheng looked at it, and immediately changed his face.

Floods in the Yangtze River are not uncommon, but before June, the water overflows and bursts the embankment. What will happen to the next rainy season?

Just as I was thinking about this, I heard several thunderclaps outside the hall, and heavy rain poured down...

Shengjing, the official post.

Cao Yong stood under the porch, looking up at the sky.

The sky is overwhelmed by dark clouds, making people feel heavy in their hearts.

Yi Duli just came over, and seeing Cao Yong like this, he also stood beside him and looked up at the sky.

The sky was full of dark clouds, and the south direction was even darker.

"Oh my god, I've only lived in peace for a few years, and I'm starting to toss again..." Yi Duli couldn't help muttering.

Cao Yong said: "Except for Shengjing and Liaoyang around the Liaohe River, other places are sparsely populated. Even if there is a flood, it will only threaten Shengjing or submerge the army... Jiangnan, I am afraid there will be a catastrophe..."

The last sentence is inaudible.

Yidu Liyin handed over the notebook, thinking about his future situation, he has been getting angry these few days, and his mouth is full of blisters.

He didn't hear Cao Yong's last words, only heard the words in front, his eyes lit up.

He always thinks about it, and after a few days of getting angry about that book, it seems that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.The left and right things have come to this point, it is useless to worry about it, it is better to follow the order.

After listening to Cao Yong's words, Sheng Jing was safe and sound, and he was even more relieved.

"I didn't have any appetite for the past two days, and I didn't have a serious meal... Now that I have come to Shengjing, how can I not eat Feilong soup?" Yi Duli became more interested, so he became more calm, and said to Cao Yong: "Furuo also take care of yourself , Waiting for the decree of the Central Committee of Beijing to come down, there is still work to be done, these few days are time to recharge your batteries."

Since Yi Duli was interested, Cao Yong was not a disappointment, so he ordered people to go down and buy it without mentioning it.

Before the Feilong soup was delivered, Zhang Yi came in to report that there was a visitor.

When Cao Yong heard the words, he couldn't help being puzzled.

On Shengjing's side, if there are any acquaintances, it is Baoyagege, but as far as he knows, since Prince Daping and his wife returned to Beijing, Baoyagege has also returned to Horqin.

After reading the greeting post, I really know someone, Eqi, Minister of the Ministry of War in Shengjing.

Eqi is the heir of Efei, the Duke of Fu, and he inherited the title after the death of the old Duke.

Although Cao Yong called "Father" before the death of Duke E, which fulfilled the fate of the two, he did not intend to get married with Duke Fu.

Eqi was not able to stand at that time, he was appointed to the position of deputy capital, and he inherited the title of duke of Fuguo from the original level.

After the old Duke's funeral was over, the two families naturally broke off contact.

When Cao Yong and Yiduli first arrived a few days ago, Eqi participated in the "reception banquet".However, the two had met each other on several occasions, but they were not closer than others.

Now that Eqi sent a post to visit, Cao Yong was a little confused.

On the other hand, Yi Duli was a little unhappy.

"Shangshu of the Ministry of War, you don't come to see me, but you come to worship Furuo? What does this mean? Could it be that you want to be on the same level as me and refuse to listen to my orders?" Yi Duli complained.

Complaints belong to complaints, he still urged Cao Yong to go out to meet the guests.

Even if the other party is dispatched to Shengjing, he is a prince of the clan after all, so it is not good to be too negligent.

Cao Yong also wanted to know E Fei's intention, so he went out to meet him in person and led E Qi to the living room to sit.

In fact, they are the Ministers of the Six Departments of Shengjing, each with their own "suffering" behind them, so even though Cao Yong met E Qi a few days ago, he didn't ask much.

E Qi's expression was awkward, he was no longer as energetic as when he was serving the sick in Fuguo's mansion.

Cao Yong made the servant serve tea, thinking about Eqi's intention in his heart.

E Qi was also feeling awkward, he was not familiar with Cao Yong at all, it was just that he had met Cao Yong twice before and after the old Duke's death.

Thinking that Cao Yong was younger than himself, and he was a trusted minister of the emperor, but he was too close to the royal family of An County in the early years, and was disgusted by the emperor. He couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

Both he and An Jun Wangfu are descendants of Rao Yumin County King Abatai, if they get close to each other, how can they violate the law of human relations?

It's just that the emperor is tired of the lineage of Anjun Wangfu and just vented his anger.

E Qi felt suffocated, and was dispatched to Shengjing, but also lived in a muddle, and did not plan to return to Beijing.

Since he was rejected by the emperor, he would be a fool to make do with it under the emperor's nose.

The left and right titles are still there, the official positions are still there, and the salary, money and food are not lacking. Being in Shengjing has the benefits of Shengjing.

But today, I had no intention of mentioning my stepfather's life with my wife, and mentioned Cao Yong and his wife, but his wife Ma Jiashi couldn't sit still.

Cao Yong is the Minister of the Ministry of Households with real power, and behind him is the three in-laws of the Chunwang Mansion, Ping Wang Mansion, and Yu Wang Mansion, who are the hottest people.

When Prince Ping and his wife were "resting" in Shengjing, they even came to greet them.

Even if Prince Ping is not favored by the emperor, he can still enjoy the glory and glory, which is probably because of his wife and family.

"Master, this concubine is willing to accompany Master to live a peaceful life in Shengjing, but what about the children? The elder brother and the second elder brother have seen the age of Kaofeng, and Da Gege will be old in two years... No one will do it for this." A few children are planning, brothers are okay, a few years later, Gege's age is filed in the clan mansion... Her status is low, if she is raised in Mongolia, she is not a high position, and I don't know how much trouble she will suffer ..." Ma Jiashi said with tears.

She knew the pain in her husband's heart, and she didn't want to mention these things to upset him.

But as the children grew up, she was not only a wife, but also a mother.

Although she has never met Cao Yong, she has met Chu Yu.

After the old Duke passed away, Chu Yu followed her husband to pay homage, crying sincerely.

Ma Jia felt surprised, and asked her husband about it in private.After all, Chuyu's status is noble, and He Shuogege's status is no lower than that of Duke Fu, so he will not plot against the Duke's government.

When Xiao knew that because her father-in-law had taken care of Cao's son-in-law, who was a bodyguard in the early years, the princess and his wife came to pay homage at the door, so Ma Jia didn't take it too seriously.

When he ascended the throne today and her husband was assigned to the Sixth Department of Shengjing, Ma Jia didn't think of finding someone to get her way.

But Prince An's mansion was in a weak state, and her natal family didn't have any prominent officials, so she followed her husband's wishes and lived in peace in Shengjing.

Hearing Cao Yong, she remembered the origin of the two families.

Maybe because of the old relationship between the old man and the old man, maybe the other party is willing to help?

Although the couple had experienced the cruelty of the world in the past few years, for the sake of their children, even if there was only a little hope, Ma Jiashi was not willing to let it go.

Under the begging of his wife, E Qi was also moved, thinking that Cao Yong came here to control the water, and he must need manpower.

Even if Yi Duli, the minister of the military department of the capital, arrives, in the Northeast, there may not be him, the minister of the military department of Shengjing, who is familiar with military affairs.

Regardless of whether Cao Yong is willing to help or not, if he takes the initiative to do his part in water control, can he also make a name in front of the imperial court?
Thinking of this, E Qi came to the official post to hand over the greeting card.

Listening to Eqi's report of his intention, Cao Yong said happily: "Seeing that the flood season is approaching, the river dam is worried about manpower..." Speaking of this, thinking that the emperor will transfer the power of the garrison to Yi Duli, he is not easy to be self-sufficient, so he said : "Before leaving the capital, the emperor had entrusted this matter to Lord Yidu Liyi, it seems that I will ask the two adults to trouble you..."

Although it is pointed out that Yiduli will be the main force in the Ministry of War, Eqi is not depressed.

It is true that Eqi and Yiduli are on the same level, but Yiduli is under the imperial order, so he should be the main one.

As long as Cao Yong and Yiduli are willing to accept him to participate in this matter, Eqi will be satisfied.

The two palms came to Shengjing to prevent floods. If the errands were not beautiful, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the emperor?

Therefore, E Qi said honestly: "All according to Mr. Cao's orders."

Cao Yong said: "Master E is polite..." Then he invited Yi Duli to come over.

Their paperwork has been handed out for three days, and it is estimated that they have also brought it to the capital. When the decree comes out, various flood control matters here will start, and preparations will be made early.

Yi Duli came over, and when he heard that Eqi had taken the initiative to participate in flood control, he was all smiles.

But after E Qi left, he couldn't help but paused and said: "Since you have that kind of heart, why didn't you come here sooner? When you came three days earlier, I dragged him to hand in the joint name book..."

This update complements last night's.

It was the second-to-last day of the monthly pass, and Xiao Jiu cried and begged for the monthly pass. . . .
