The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 232
When returning home, the faces of the maids were not quite right, Gu Huaishu saw the bird cage outside the corridor, stopped in his footsteps, and asked: "What's wrong?"

"Returning to Madam, the father-in-law of Prince Yong's Mansion came just now and said that this is the prince's return gift."

The servant girl replied tremblingly, but she didn't dare to look up at Gu Huaixiu's expression.

It was a beautiful cage with a dead parrot.

Gu Huaishu walked over and only lifted up the cage. The cage is very beautiful, and so is the parrot.

A solid birdcage filled with dead birds.

Yinzhen was warning her not to act rashly.

But he didn't know that she really wanted to poison him to death, but...

Not yet.

Gently put down the birdcage with slender white hands, Gu Huaixiu thought in his heart that he didn't know who was the bird in the cage.

He thinks that the throne is a good thing, but he doesn't know if he really sits on the throne in the future, will he be able to casually call himself "the most idle person in the world" like today?
Counting all the way, you might as well see who is more capable in the end.

Sovereign power, subject power.

Gu Huaishu bent his lips and said, "Get rid of it, the cage is connected to the bird inside."

Originally, Yinzhen meant that Gu Huaishu was the bird in the cage, but in Gu Huaishu's view, she was not the bird in the cage, but Yinzhen was.

The royal family is this cage.

As for the parrot, Yinzhen poisoned him to death with the poisoned wine she sent, right?
Gu Huaishu knew it all in his heart, but he didn't care too much.

She doesn't care about the dead parrot, just like Yinzhen doesn't care about the poisoned wine she sent.

For some things, it may be better to deliberately ignore them.

If you really want to pursue it, Gu Huaishu should lose his head now, but if you want to pursue it, Fourth Master shouldn't have a good end.

Just like what she said to Sun Lianqiao, everything should be done.

Others plot against her, she plots against others, others retaliate against her, she retaliates against others.

Gu Huaishu was too lazy to think about it, she began to plan a completely different path, although Fourth Master was still not clear about it.

Now that the prince has fallen, Zhao Fengzhao, the confidant of the old prince Yidang Li, has also been impeached. It is conceivable that the prince's party will be implicated next.For Kangxi, this is a completely intolerable thing, but he still doesn't know about it, maybe he thinks that Zhao Fengzhao is an upright official just like his father?

This Zhao Fengzhao also recommends that Gali is not corrupt, which is just a joke after all.

In Zhang Tingyu's calculations, there are very few omissions.

The only thing is that this day was chosen too trickily. Ever since I played riddles outside that day, Gu Huaishu felt that everything Zhang Tingyu did now had a strong purpose. Others might think it didn't matter, but Gu Huai On the side of the sleeve, it seems that it is frightening.

Longevity in Kangxi's 52nd year is Kangxi's [-]th birthday.

Seeing that Lord Kangxi is getting older, everyone in the palace seems to know that he likes to be lively, and the preparations for this year's Wanshou are also very lively. They will entertain ministers of civil and military affairs in front of the main gate of Changchun Garden, and they will also invite all over the world to the capital for him. Happy birthday old man.

All clan nobles and even ministers have prepared gifts for Kangxi.

At this time, Kangxi will not mind if you are corrupt or not, as long as something makes him happy, he will generally not mind.

This is Zhang Tingyu's calculation. He has been exposed to this kind of gift list in the South Study Room a lot. Prince Yong, who has always lived frugally, handed the birthday gift to him this time.

From Wanshou sea house with added glass screen, Wanshou gilt inlaid collection treasure tripod, Wanshou enamel square peace flower statue, to natural Ganoderma lucidum presenting longevity fairy peach plate, immortals celebrating birthday enamel bonsai, Antarctic auspiciousness picture, pine and crane picture enclosure... ...everything that one could expect to find, so rich that it is not like what the usual Prince Yong can do.

Although as a prince, Yinzhen has a lot of properties under his name, there are also a lot of banks and the like, there are even a few hill paddocks, and even the people in them, but these things are not only priceless, but also hard to find in the world. The precision is breathtaking, and it really doesn't seem like it can be found in a short time.

Zhang Tingyu thought of a person's name when he read the gift presented by Prince Yong's Mansion.

With Shen Qi here, what else is impossible?

He laughed and recorded a gift list.

The prohibition of criminal names around Kangxi's [-]th birthday should not see blood, but Zhang Tingyu felt that Zhao Shenqiao should pick an unforgettable day.Zhao Fengzhao was impeached in February, and in March, the case was clear enough.

Zhao Fengzhao returned to Beijing to report on his work and was subsequently assigned to be the magistrate of Taiyuan. He was planning to return to Shanxi, but he never expected to leave the capital.

Zhang Tingyu thought, his fate should also be accounted for here.

"Master Li, longevity is approaching, this book..."

What he held in his hand was the case of Zhao Fengzhao. Zhao Fengzhao was involved in corruption, and the amount was quite scary.

Li Guangdi was already a little trembling, old and frail, and suffering from constant illnesses, now he could only look at Zhang Tingyu, no matter how he asked, there was only one sentence: "You decide..."

decide for yourself.

That would be difficult.

Zhang Tingyu didn't speak for the time being, but put the notebook aside.

Longevity in the future, all the ministers will participate, if Zhang Tingyu handed over this booklet, I don't know if Zhao Fengzhao can escape?
Now it is only found that Zhao Fengzhao has embezzled more than [-] taels of treasury silver, which is not shocking enough.

He glanced at Li Guangdi, and said: "Long Live Lord is happy recently, it's better not to bother him...Let Mr. Zhao be happy for a few more days."

Next to him, a man in plain clothes without a robe glanced at Zhang Tingyu, then lowered his head to write something again.

"Linggao, let's rest after copying. Now the government and the public are resting..." Li Guangdi seemed to have noticed it, and only gave a casual order.

Fang Linggao, also known as Fang Bao, finally put down his pen.

In February, Fang Bao, who was involved in the Nanshan collection case, should have died, but one day Kangxi asked where there is anyone who can write ancient Chinese?Li Guangdi claimed that Fang Bao was the only one in the world, so he presented Fang Bao's work in prison, which greatly pleased Kangxi. Alone.

That is to say, now that Fang Bao is neither an official nor an official, how many people are looking sideways at her being able to walk in the center of power in the entire Forbidden City.

Back then, Fang Linggao wrote the preface to Dai Mingshi's "Nanshan Collection", and now he escaped, it may not be a bad thing for Zhang Tingyu.

Although I don't know how Fang Bao thinks of Zhang Tingyu, one is Zhang Tingyu's protégé, and the other is from Tongcheng. Although their identities are different, they are both on duty in the South Study Room.What matters is Dai Mingshi who has already been executed.

Fang Bao glanced at Zhang Tingyu just like that, and then at the memorial pressed down below.

It was almost noon, people tend to get sleepy in spring, let alone Li Guangdi?
The emperor went to the imperial garden to enjoy with the concubines, and their work in the south study was almost done.

Zhang Tingyu changed Li Guangdi to a cup of hot tea, then put down the teapot and cup, saw Li Guangdi sleeping on the chair, turned around and walked out lightly.

He went to sit in the warm pavilion next to him for a short while as an errand, and just said something in his heart when he saw Fang Bao come out.

Fang Bao's footsteps were also very light, as if afraid of waking up the elderly Li Guangdi.

"Why is Linggao here?"

"Seeing Mr. Li Guangdi taking a nap, I was afraid that reading would disturb him, so I had to disturb Mr. Zhang for a while."

Fang Bao is Zhang Tingyu's protégé, first bowed to Zhang Tingyu, and then got up naturally.

Zhang Tingyu smiled, but he sighed: "The temples and lakes can accommodate Fang Linggao like you, but not Dai Nanshan like him..."

Speaking of which, Zhang Tingyu began to think of the case two years ago again, and Zhang Tingyu felt ironic in his heart.

Fang Bao's eyes flickered, and he looked at Zhang Tingyu, he was Dai Mingshi's best friend, how could he not know Zhang Tingyu's kindness to Dai Mingshi?But really, without Zhang Tingyu, where would Dai Mingshi have such a miserable experience?

"The student has been in prison for two years, and there is always a sentence hidden in his heart, and he wants to ask Mr. Zhang face to face."

"……You ask."

Zhang Tingyu was indifferent.

Fang Bao said: "Brother Dai is superior to the world. Everyone knows that he is unrestrained and unrestrained, so he is a madman. Mr. is the Bole of Nanshan. Why can't he be protected, instead of the so-called killing relatives with righteousness, which is actually a bloodless injustice. Killing? How can you not know that he is innocent?"

indeed.

Zhang Tingyu killed his student unjustly with his own hands, and he even issued a signature ordering the execution!
He personally dealt with his own students.

Zhang Tingyu naturally knew that Dai Mingshi had been wronged, but so what?

He was silent for a long time before looking at Fang Bao: "Right and wrong, fairness and justice, you have it in your heart, why ask me?"

Right and wrong, fair and moral.

In the Lilu field, people actually don't have these things.

During Fang Bao's stay in the South Study Room, he was deeply influenced by his ears and eyes. Is it unusual?
He looked at Zhang Tingyu, the old Mr. Zhang who was kind to Dai Mingshi, and he sighed after a long time: "Success is Mr. Zhang, failure is Mr. Zhang..."

Zhang Tingyu served tea and said, "Now, you are the one who succeeds and loses."

What he said had a profound meaning.

Fang Bao glanced back, there were a few young eunuchs far away, but Zhang Tingyu didn't care about them at all when he spoke...

With a shudder in his heart, Fang Bao remembered the note Zhang Tingyu put down just now.

If he could break the rules and put Dai Mingshi's answer sheet in front of Huiyuan, he would know how much Zhang Tingyu admired Dai Mingshi, but he was forced to supervise and kill Dai Mingshi himself. Although he is calm and calm now, he may not hate him in his heart.Zhao Shenqiao and his son's retribution has arrived today, if Zhang Tingyu doesn't have a plan, then it's a fake.

Zhang Tingyu looked at Fang Bao with a smile: "Long live Lord Changchun Garden banquet for thousands of old people, what a good day, the auspicious day among auspicious days..."

After finishing speaking, he put the teacup away: "I'll go and see if Master Li has woken up, Linggao should rest here first."

Fang Bao just looked at Zhang Tingyu with his hands behind his back, and walked out of the Nuan Pavilion step by step, the little eunuchs on both sides did not move.

Longevity Day, March [-]th, a good day.

Originally, when he couldn't see the blood and didn't try the criminal name, but Zhang Tingyu...

too poisonous.

However, after the prince fell, he has been seeking to recover. Manzhou Zhenghongqi Gali is a loyal supporter of the prince. Zhao Fengzhao among Zhao's father and son is Gali's confidant. Gali will definitely try to rescue Zhao Fengzhao , because Zhao Fengzhao knew too much about Kari.

Kangxi Wanshou was delayed for more than half a month. If they were given a chance to turn things around, it would be troublesome.

The most fearful thing is that the trapped beasts will fight back and fight back. Zhang Tingyu likes to end them with one blow.

Fang Bao looked back at the water stains left on the coffee table, and finally understood.

Kangxi likes to talk to Fang Bao about ancient and modern poetry, because Fang Bao has no official position, let alone involved in various interests, so Kangxi trusts him.Zhang Tingyu gradually became busy, especially when he had to handle government affairs on behalf of Li Guangdi, a bachelor who is now in name only, and he didn't even touch the ground, so Fang Bao became the only person Kangxi talked about recently.

Today Fang Bao talked to Kangxi about Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism.

Kangxi suddenly asked him if the sky is bigger or the emperor is bigger.

Fang Bao replied: You are the Son of Heaven, and the meaning of the sky is your meaning, and your meaning is the meaning of the sky.Where you point your fingers is the king's land, when you think about it is an auspicious time, when all evils in the world will retreat, the sky is bigger than you, and you are bigger than the sky.Long live is the day, what is the size?

When Kangxi heard this, he clapped his hands and laughed, and rewarded Fang Bao with a hundred taels of gold and twenty pieces of silk silk on the spot.

Zhang Tingyu heard about Fang Bao's award at home, so he happily poured himself a cup of tea.

He has been thinking of Dai Mingshi a lot lately, the death of his protégé has become a big turning point in his life.

Back when Gu Huaishu entered the palace, Kangxi said that "the death penalty is inevitable, but the life penalty is inevitable." At that time, he knew that he could not protect his woman; Personally supervised and beheaded Dai Mingshi, at that time he knew that he could not protect his disciples.

There are all kinds, all kinds.

For example, Zhang Tingzan.

Zhang Tingyu glanced at Gu Huaixiu, she had an empty box in her hand, and a golden hairpin beside it: "Did you find the hairpin?"

Gu Huaishu looked back at him, and shook his head: "The Nian Mansion gave it back again, but I was not careful, and I don't know where to throw it. It was originally a pair of hairpins, but one was missing, or Better to throw it away."

"It's just that I lost a hairpin... If you think it's not good, just press it into the bottom of the box and throw it away? You really are a little God of Wealth."

Zhang Tingyu came over, picked up a hairpin, put it down gently, and said suddenly: "On March [-]th, don't go out..."

Gu Huaishu suddenly looked up at him, a little confused: "You..."

Zhang Tingyu was standing behind her, pressing her shoulders with both hands, without any force, gently, but she saw the turbulent look in Zhang Tingyu's eyes, it was the changing situation, the hatred and ambition that had been suppressed for a long time, as well as the vigorous ambition and Liaoyuan's desire to control.

Stretching out one of his palms and clenching his fist, he asked Gu Huaishu, "Do you know what you have in your hand?"

"Nothing."

Gu Huaishu laughed, and then said: "If you let go, you will own the whole world."

"...It makes sense."

But Zhang Tingyu didn't mean that.

He gently turned his fist over, with the back of his hand facing up, and then slowly opened it, and then turned it over inadvertently. The moment Gu Huaishu saw what was in his palm, his scalp would explode. If Zhang Tingyu hadn't pressed her , at this moment she has stood up!

"you!"

"Shh-"

Zhang Tingyu squinted his eyes, and pressed her lips so lightly, signaling her not to make such a fuss.

When people accomplish something, they often have a kind of complacency that cannot be concealed.

Zhang Tingyu is just an ordinary person, in his palm, there is a red bell seal, which is the old prince seal of the abolished prince Yinfeng.

Gu Huaixiu only felt cold sweat coming out of her back. She looked at Zhang Tingyu, but found that Zhang Tingyu's eyes were dim.

"you……"

"You said that at the time of the Longevity Lord's longevity, Gali, the backbone of the prince's party, suddenly received a sealed letter from the prince's cronies, would he take any action immediately? Zhao Fengzhao is Gali's confidant, He is also the prince's confidant, this letter, why not let Yinreng take advantage of this longevity to give a gift to Karma who is going to the banquet..."

Zhang Tingyu said lightly, then pulled the brocade handkerchief in Gu Huaishou's hand, and gently wiped off the imprint on the palm of his hand. The color of the ink pad was deep blood red, like a big ball of blood.

He was already standing in front of the lamp, so he lightly touched the flame of the candlestick with his finger, watching it change shape when his finger brushed it, "This fire... when it was in the lamp, it was a small ball , but if it is placed on the wilderness, where the grass is luxuriant, it will change from docile to ferocious almost immediately..."

Slightly squinted eyes, there is only a slight light and shadow in the eye slits.

Zhang Tingyu didn't speak for a long time.

His shadow was elongated by the light of the lamp, covering a small half of the rich blue and red blanket with a picture of blooming flowers, and there was a strange depression.

At this moment, Gu Huaishu knew that he had changed.

She didn't know whether such a change was good or bad, but she just remembered that a long, long time ago, she was summoned into the palace by the emperor, and she either scratched her face or lost her life.In the end, she choked with the emperor and slashed her hand... I still remember that day, when she sold herself to Yinzhen and completely became the fourth master's slave.Zhang Tingyu took her out of the palace, and the majestic shadow of the Forbidden City was behind them, gradually elongating, elongating...

Looking at Zhang Tingyu's figure now, she felt in a daze that the entire Forbidden City was pressing on him.

Gu Huaixiu was a little out of breath, her eyes were blurred with tears and she saw that his temples were already graying.

Zhang Tingyu turned around: "The virtuous minister, the powerful minister... seems to be no different..."

Aren't they all the word "Chen"?
Zhang Tingyu said: A gentleman is magnanimous, and a villain is long.

He also said that a hypocrite is long-suffering, but a real villain is open-minded.

But Gu Huaixiu suddenly felt that a gentleman is a villain, and a villain is a gentleman, and there is no difference between people.

It's like Zhao Shenqiao was an upright official, but falsely accused the innocent Dai Mingshi, like Zhang Tingyu, the pillar of the country, but killed two cases unjustly, counting the Zhao family.

On March [-]th, Kangxi held a banquet for thousands of seniors at the gate of Changchun Garden.

The entire capital city, from Changchun Garden to Xizhimen, is full of gorgeous decorations along the way, colorful silk archways, auspicious objects of good fortune and longevity, and a royal seat a few miles away.All temples and courtyards in the six parts of the capital are decorated with lanterns and festoons, and everyone is smiling, just waiting to welcome Kangxi's [-]th birthday and celebrate the emperor's birthday.

With Huang En Tong Mu, even the death row prisoners in the prison gate can have a good meal.

It seemed that there was peace and joy, even people who usually do not go out, went out to watch this rare spectacle at this time.

The entire capital city is filled with a kind of artificially piled up jubilation. In the spring of March, it looks like apricot blossoms and snow falling, so brilliant that it makes Gu Huaishu palpitate.

In the old age of the emperor, in the prosperous Qing Dynasty.

Crowds of people are surging, and cars and horses are flowing.

But Gu Huaixiu didn't go out, she sat quietly in the room and calculated the accounts of the house.

While the abacus was being moved, the sound was not as loud as the thunderous sound of silk and bamboo outside the mansion.

However, her heart is very quiet, prosperity and decline, after the prosperity and behind the prosperity, what is it?
It was the unjust death of Prince Zhu's family, the beheading order of Shen Tianfu's family, and the blood from Dai Mingshi's guillotine.Wencheng Wude, the world is peaceful...

Ping Sanfan, destroy Oboi, personally conquer Galdan...

Great achievements.

"Snapped……"

The finger that turned the abacus suddenly stopped, Gu Huaishu sat in front of the makeup mirror, looked at himself carefully, and finally found the first white hair on the sideburns.

She watched and stroked it with great care, then buried her head in her arms, and fell asleep like this.

The scenery in spring is beautiful, the birds are chirping, the falling flowers are colorful, and the world is prosperous.

And she is just looking for a corner of stability in this prosperous age.

The singing and dancing outside is in full swing, but Zhao Fengzhao's fate is exhausted.

In the peacefulness, Zhao Fengzhao had knelt on the guillotine, his father Zhao Shenqiao and brother Zhao Xiongzhao were there, and Zhang Tingyu was also there.

Holding a dossier in his hand, Zhang Tingyu put the dossier lightly on the case as before, and smiled at Zhao Shenqiao, who was pale and in a daze: "Galli is in prison, Zhao Fengzhao embezzled 20 yuan of money from Kuyin." , Lord Long Live personally determined that you are the most corrupt official in the world. Mr. Zhao, you are the most honest official in the world, and it is time to execute."

Zhao Shenqiao couldn't recall the scene at the banquet at all, and he didn't understand it until he was sitting in the position of the supervisor and executioner in a trance.

His eyes were blood red, Zhao Shenqiao was getting old, white-haired people give black-haired people.

"What kind of vicious person would deliberately take revenge here..."

Zhang Tingyu laughed: "What kind of vicious person would put an innocent family member of mine to death? I, Zhang Tingyu, work for Lord Long Live, and I have absolutely no selfish revenge, let alone the slightest selfishness."

How similar are these words to what Zhao Shenqiao said to Zhang Tingyu back then?
What Zhao Shenqiao said back then is now echoed by Zhang Tingyu!

What's wrong with Dai Mingshi?
How are the hundreds of people implicated and displaced?
Now that Zhao Shenqiao came to tell Zhang Tingyu viciousness and scheming, what a big joke!
Gently cupping his hands, Zhang Tingyu retreated to the side: "The time is coming, it's time for you to supervise and kill. Mr. Zhao, don't ruin your future. Long live God is still waiting to hear the news."

Such a big incident happened at the banquet of the thousand old men, and the letters plotted by Yinfeng Gali and others were intercepted, and even Zhao Fengzhao, who was corrupted by the giant, came to dissuade Kangxi from seeing blood at the banquet of the thousand old men. Kangxi was angry, everyone said that seeing blood today was unlucky, but one Fang Bao came out and said: "The emperor is the sky, and the direction of the sky is auspicious!"

Once this statement is made, who dares to object?
As soon as the emperor spoke, he saw blood today!
With trembling hands, Zhao Shenqiao pulled out the lottery and threw it out almost howling. Watching the executioner behead his son, he fell to the ground in grief.

Zhang Tingyu only put a piece of paper torn from the yellow calendar in his sleeve on the desk.

On March [-]th, it is advisable to marry and start a market, and avoid burial and funeral.

Isn't it a good day?
With his hands behind his back like two years ago, he walked slowly along Chang'an Avenue, passing through the bustling crowd, seeing and hearing, he was full of prosperity.

Dai Mingshi was crushed and turned into ashes, where is the heroic soul now?
Walking slowly past the Mingzhu mansion where the power was all over the court and the people in the past, and suddenly seeing the gates and courtyards being deserted and saddle horses sparse, you know that the old things of the Six Dynasties are going with the flow.

In ancient and modern times, princes and generals, in the years, there is only a handful of loess.

Before the body, after the name.

How do you know about the dead?

Let go of the false name, wait for me to pour it out and sing in a low voice, once crazy, once real...
