Emperor Yongzheng: Eagle Bow Sirius

Chapter 53
Yunxiang and Yun have been old enemies for decades, but in the "Eight Masters Party", it is the eldest elder brother Yun and the ninth elder brother Yun who are really bullying and humiliating themselves. The tenth elder brother is a firecracker. Come on, the ninth elder brother It was the one who was shaking the feather fan, and the "mynah" who was actually sitting on the flag actually had no personal grievances with him, so he often restrained Yunyun not to go too far.Yongzheng was merciless towards this group of people one by one, he was relieved, but seeing Yunrong's miserable face, waiting to die, thinking about the fact that they are brothers of the same father, he couldn't help feeling compassionate.Yun Xiang thought about it, coughed lightly and said: "Long live, we have discussed the matter of rectifying the flag affairs, myna, and now the Zongxue has been established, and many people have been arranged to work in Huangzhuang. Trouble, no less than bureaucracy. Master, don't worry, let the fire simmer slowly until the pig's head rots. Just follow your order, and we can discuss it again?" Yongzheng took out his pocket watch and said, "Okay Well, this is the end of today's discussion. I want to go in to see Aunt Shiqi, she is also sick. You have urgent matters, I will talk to Mr. Fang in the Hall of Mental Cultivation this afternoon, and you, Yunxiang, will come too. I will leave Beijing the day after tomorrow , go to Henan to see the flood control of the Yellow River. I will make a list of the things I should ask for instructions today and tomorrow, and I will do it after I think about it-kneel down!"

"Zha!" Several ministers got up and knelt down and kowtowed, and dispersed after Yongzheng left.

Yun held back his unknown anger, silently exited Donghua Gate, and had already left Lao Qihua Gate, and suddenly remembered that he was still following the purpose of "persuading the old fourteen", because he stamped his foot in the sedan chair and shouted loudly: "North Jade Emperor Temple, the House of the Fourteenth Lord!"

"Oh, yes—!"

The bearers responded in unison, and slowly turned to the north.With the monotonous and rhythmic creaking of the oak wood car poles, Yun's heart gradually calmed down.This place is already outside the city of Beijing, and there is no need to enter the city again to get to Yunfu, all you need to do is go north along the official road beside the moat, and go west two arrows from the east corner gate.It was mid-spring and March at that time. Looking through the sedan window, to the west was the dark and tall Beijing city wall, gloomy and lifeless. Dark red and bright green moss covered the bricks of the old city that had gone through vicissitudes for hundreds of years. It gives people a strange and mysterious sense of depression. Weeds and spring grass grow side by side on the sawtooth-like castellation pheasants, winding to the distance, as if to tell people something, only the rippling spring water below the city, the green shore willows, a little Bring some vitality.But looking to the east, it seems to be another world, the vast wilderness, and the dark green wheat fields reaching to the sky.People walking in the fields helped the old and the young, pointing, talking and laughing; the village girl carrying a basket to scoop out wild vegetables held a small shovel in her hand and lowered her head to search among the ridges. laughter.On the other hand, most of the children in the Zongjiao are flying kites, some are breathing heavily, some are running while dragging kites that don’t want to take off, some are teased by their parents, sitting on their heads. For those who watched the kites in the sky, there were also quite a few childish children sucking their fingers and looking this way... It was a scene of prosperity and joy in the world.Yunji looked at the peach grove in the distance, he took a deep breath, wanted to say something, moved his lips, put down the car window curtains, and stroked his forehead just in thought.After an unknown amount of time, the big sedan chair stopped flickering and landed steadily on the ground. He Zhuer said cautiously outside, "My lord..."

"Well?"

"It's already there."

"Well."

Yun vaguely agreed, bent down and got out of the sedan chair, and looked at the majestic and majestic Fourteen Baylor Mansion. There were five couplets in a row, and the green bricks at the main gate of the building. There seemed to be more than a dozen palace guards standing in front of the gate. There was no bird in front of the gate, only a few tall weeping willows against the wall, and the willows were hanging straight to the ground.Looking at the main entrance where the imperial plaque of "Great General's Mansion" has been taken off, Yun seemed to be pricked by a needle, his body trembled, and was about to speak when a man dressed like a brush came over and slapped Yun in front of him. He smiled and said: "The slave pays respects to Lord Ba!"

"I'll take a look at Old Fourteen." Yun Tai said calmly, "——I came here by order!" The post was startled, and hurriedly said: "I came here by order! Please wait a moment, my servant invites Master Fourteen Open the middle door and welcome in..." "No need." Yun Yi waved his hand and smiled, "I came here by decree, but I didn't declare an edict, so there's no need to be extravagant." He picked up his foot and entered the Yimen, walking while asking questions :

"What's your name?"

"Hui Baye, the slave is called Cai Huaixi." See the note on page 2 of this volume, his life experience described here is fictitious.

"When did the Fourteenth Master follow you? In the past, the Fourteenth Master lived on Qipan Street. I often went there. Why haven't I seen you?"

Cai Huaixi led the way, leaned sideways and smiled, "I used to be an errand in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Last autumn, I was assigned here with Qian Yundou to serve the Fourteenth Lord—Walk on the Wangye's side, and the Fourteenth Lord is in the study—in fact, eight The Lord is still the slave's benefactor, but the prince is a noble person, so how can he remember the slave!" Yun stopped, looked at Cai Huaixi with dead eyes, and shook his head.Cai Huaixi said with a smile: "My lord is a well-known 'eight sage kings'. He has done a lot of good things, so naturally he doesn't care. In the 56th year of Kangxi, the family of slaves went to Beijing to visit their relatives, and they were begging for food at Chaoyangmen Wharf. I went out for a walk to see the scenery. It was snowing in the twelfth lunar month of winter. I saw our family panicking under the eaves of the Heshen Temple. The Lord rewarded our family for a meal and asked the slave a few words, so he asked the head of the mansion to send the slave away. Going to work as an errand in the Ministry of Internal Affairs..." Said, the smile on Cai Huaixi's face was gone, and her eyes were full of tears.Yun stood and thought for a while, he had done many such things, and he really couldn't remember it, so he nodded and sighed: "It seems that he came from a small family with a conscience. The number of officials I give is much bigger than this." There are a lot of people who have nothing to do with your kindness." As he spoke, he walked forward and saw a row of three thatched-roofed mountain houses shaded by lush bamboo groves. Cai Huaixi smiled and said, "This is the study of the Fourteenth Master."

"You just wait here, I'll go in and have a look." Yun smiled and ordered, and walked past the study room, standing on the steps under the eaves and listening quietly, occasionally heard the sound of a Guqin ticking inside, and then stop.Yunzheng was surprised, and a woman's voice came from inside: "This song "Pingsha Luoyan" is hard to die, the score looks like a book from heaven. Fourteenth Master, please forgive me!" Yun couldn't help smiling, listening Yun said: "Success comes naturally. You have such aptitude, but you follow me and you can't play the piano. Wouldn't it be a joke?—Come on, do it again, remember, for this tune of changing signs, first use your little finger to hook this The first string, the thumb of the left hand pressed the king string, and the ring finger wiped the seventh string...don’t worry, you’re much better than before!” Yun didn’t think about it any more, and said outside the door: “Hi fourteenth brother Yaxing!" Stepping in, she saw a young girl in disguise sitting in front of the desk, with a cigarette burning next to her, the fourteenth elder brother Yuncai was wearing a rain-coloured Ningxia silk jacket, without a belt, Half squatting behind the girl, almost teaching her to practice the piano hand in hand, both of them were so busy that their heads were soaked in sweat.Seeing Yun coming in, Yuncai got up, the girl blushed with shame, got up embarrassingly, and stepped back to stand aside.Yun smiled and said: "It's the starling, I was taken aback, I thought the emperor asked the people at the sticky pole to bring me here!"

Yun smiled, stepped forward to take the piano score on the case, and saw that it said:

All are arranged in order of size of copper coins.Yun looked at the girl and said, "This is the tune of "Zheng". There are a lot of things to pay attention to: one mind should not be distracted, the second trial should distinguish the rhythm, the third finger should be facing the back, the fourth finger should be clean, the fifth finger should not overlap, the sixth tone should be light and heavy, the seventh rhythm should be slow and fast, the eighth should be high and low, the ninth string should be in harmony, and the ten should be left and right. You guys are hugging each other like this, can you 'not be distracted'?"

"Mynah is so embarrassing!" Yun couldn't help laughing, "Perhaps mynah has taught others this way, and if he failed to teach, he came to teach me again. Red scarf and green sleeves, beauty and vanilla, I really can't do 'mind is not distracted'—— Cited Di, serve tea to Master Ba!" Only now did Yun know that this girl was the one who caused the case of Tian Wenjing's impeachment of Shanxi Governor Nuo Min, and he couldn't help but look at her curiously, only to see Qiao Yindi wearing a moon white cheongsam with gauze, He was wearing a light green lambskin wind-fur waistcoat, and his thick black hair had been pulled into a "handle head". He had already let his feet go, because he smiled and said, "I saw you in the Ministry of punishment. I didn't expect you to be so graceful. I can't blame you very much." Fourth Master loves you! Can you pretend to be a Xishi in a flag dress? Those in my house are also made of the same material, and they only walk with their chests and belly protruding, so it's not pleasing to look at!" Yun smiled and looked at Yindi, He said to Yun: "mynah thought she was a Han! She is a Manchurian! The bad thing is the 'flowerpot bottom' shoes. I asked my sister-in-law and the others to take off the hard shoes and look at them again. I don't believe it. You go back and try it, you have to walk like this when you put on the 'flower pot bottom'!"

Yun looked at Yindi again, feeling familiar, but couldn't think of who it was, so he asked Yindi: "Are you Manchurian? Isn't your surname Qiao? Which flag?" Yindi looked at Yun coyly, and tiptoed to the ground He lowered his head and laughed: "My mother is Han, I heard her say... I have never met my own father, our mother, mother and daughter fled to Shanxi when we were two years old, and the godfather of the Qiao family adopted us, so we changed I have a surname..." As soon as Yun heard it, he knew in his heart that he didn't know which seed was left behind by a son of a romantic Eight Banners. Blessed. I was worried that your fourteenth master would go to Zunhua, and it would be good if you had no one by your side. Now I am relieved, you went with the fourteenth master—"

"Brother," Yun interrupted Yun coldly, "Tell me to go to Zunhua's secluded residence, I haven't received an order yet! Are you here to be a lobbyist for Yongzheng?" He shook his head with a "wow" A big sandalwood fan, leaning halfway in the chair and shaking gently, stared at Yun no longer speaking arrogantly.Yun was taken aback by his question, got up and took a few steps, seeing a few family members standing outside, she suddenly turned her face and ordered Yindi: "Go out, tell them to stand far away!" Yindi hurriedly agreed and squatted down. Then he walked out.

Yun's eyes shone brightly and he approached Yun with a cold smile on his lips.Yun was frightened by his terrifying expression and trembled, the shaking fan stopped involuntarily, looked at Yun in astonishment, and said, "Mynah...you are—?"

"You refuse to obey the edict?"

"Where is the 'tomb guard'? That's the same as confinement!"

"Even if it's 'banned', you don't obey the edict?"

"Not obeying the edict!"

"The guards of Qianqing Gate came to get you, what should you do?"

"They come and get it. Then, billions of people in the world will see how he, Emperor Yongzheng, treats his brother?"

"Your ninth brother, tenth brother and me, aren't he his real brother? Isn't the second brother his real brother?"

"That's different, I'm his mother!" Yun took a heavy breath, sat up straight, and said, "I just won't go, tell him to kill me, and let everyone know what he is!"

Yun stared at Yun, for a long while, "puchi" smiled, and said: "Old Fourteen, you are not enough! If you do this, people in the world will think we are 'poor' now, and the council of future generations will think we are 'ridiculous'! On the day when things cannot be done, of course we will take this step, now, it is absolutely impossible!" Yun looked away from Yun with depression, and sighed: "This is God's will, and it cannot be done by human beings. Starling, Nian Geng Yao has won the battle, and Yongzheng's political situation has stabilized. He is promoted and promoted, and Nian is willing to let us be in this muddy water? Longkodo, you have also seen it. It's useless at all-you and my brothers are scattered, and the screwdrivers in the past are sycophants, shrinking their heads, shrinking their heads, and losing their butts. Tell me, what kind of chassis do we have, and who can we count on? ?" Yun gritted his teeth, and a hoarse voice burst out two words: "Hongshi."

"Third elder brother!"

"Yes," the muscles under the corners of Yun's eyes bulged slightly, and only at this moment can one see the gambler's look in his gloomy eyes, "Don't forget, you, Yun, Yun are no longer 'Eight Lord Party' , we are all the 'Three Masters Party' now! This is the next round of brothers fighting against each other—everyone's abacus and everyone is playing, and they are all playing the card of Hongshi. Hongshi and Hongli are two 'lords', one 'Gong Baylor is a 'Prince Treasure', if we don't take advantage of this new party struggle, then we will be the number one idiot in the world!"

Yun looked at Yun motionless.Shi Shi got up with some difficulty, stared blankly at the bright spring window, and said, "Brother understands what the starling means. We can't cause trouble for Hongshi for a while, and we must bite the bullet and suffer a little bit. When the time comes, we can't help it." Yongzheng baby, you can't help Hongshi, can you?"

"Amitabha, you have a clear understanding!" Yun clasped his hands together and said gracefully.
