Chapter 198 The Emperor Wants Money

Chapter 198 The Emperor Wants Money

After Liang Jiugong at the door reported, Yuzhu heard the emperor's laughter: "Tell him to come in quickly."

Yu Zhu was really puzzled, yesterday he was excited to kill Lao Jiu, why is he in such a good mood today?
After entering, Yuzhu suddenly saw a tower-shaped building on the chessboard.

Yu Zhu was about to salute, when the old emperor said with a smile, "That's all."

That's all?

How is it possible?That's called Muwujunfu!

Small things are very casual, and big things are not overstepped. It has always been Yu Zhu's basic principle to serve Kangxi, and he will never forget it.

Yu Zhu insisted on kneeling down and bowing, respectfully invited Sheng'an, and then moved closer to carefully observe the style of the building.

"You little bastard, when you shouldn't be more polite, you should be more polite." Kangxi obviously spoke the truth, and didn't want Yuzhu to be too restrained.

However, this was when the old emperor was in a good mood.If he remembered Yuzhu's arrogance and rudeness when he was furious, he would be in big trouble.

Courtesy, respect also.

When getting along with the old emperor in private, you can't be too polite, but you can't be without it.

Yo, isn't this the Leifeng Pagoda in Hangzhou?

"How is it? Lei Jinyu's 'Tangyang' masterpiece." The old emperor asked Yuzhu with a smile.

Yuzhu knew very well in his heart that what the old emperor was asking was on the surface, but in fact, it was just a veiled way of asking for money.

After getting more than ten years of taxes at once, the old emperor's mind became more active and he wanted to toss.

To put it bluntly, the Three Yuanming Gardens, which have been under construction since Kangxi, are simply a gold-swallowing monster.

In his later years, Kangxi indulged in pleasure.Who has no money to fight Rakshasa bandits and Junggars, but piles up money to repair gardens, what kind of sage is he?
Holy Patriarch?Holy ancestor wool!

However, how can Kangxi's future temple titles and posthumous titles have anything to do with Yuzhu?

Yu Zhu pretended to appreciate the ironing appearance, but he was thinking in his heart, what conditions should he ask the old emperor before paying the money?
The old emperor wanted money, and Yuzhu wanted to do great things, so they hit it off.

In the blink of an eye, Yu Zhu thought of a countermeasure.However, he continued to "study" the beauty of Leifeng Pagoda without haste.

It wasn't until the old emperor coughed lightly that Yuzhu woke up suddenly, and blurted out: "This scene is wonderful! I seem to have seen it in a dream?"

The old emperor was amused, and said with a smile: "You are talking nonsense, and you have never been to Hangzhou, where are you going to meet?"

Obedient and listen to the sound, Yuzhu understood in seconds, the old emperor wanted to repair the garden, but also thought about going to the south of the Yangtze River for the sixth time.

Whether it is to build a garden or go to the south of the Yangtze River, the biggest question is where does the money come from?

Hey, Manchao civil and military, who can get so much money?

Only Heshen, no, Yuzhu too!

"Old man, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money for such a beautiful scene?"

Yuzhu asked this question on purpose, just to let Kangxi form an inherent concept.As long as you are looking for money from Yuzhu, it's time to talk about the terms.

"Look at your financial obsession, I was gagged by you before I could speak."

How shrewd is the old emperor?
As soon as Yuzhu opened his mouth, he knew that this kid might have already guessed that the 40 taels of silver left in the tax supervisor's office might not be able to keep it.

"This scene is very beautiful." Kangxi pushed forward implicitly, and told Yu Zhu clearly: "It's fixed, bring your money!"

Between smart people, is it necessary to tell everything thoroughly?

"Old man, you also know that it seems that so much money has been collected this time. In fact, it's just a one-off sale, and there will be no second time."

When it comes to Yu Zhu's strengths, he will naturally cry out of poverty.

The old emperor naturally understood that money confiscated or obtained from house raids belonged to the category of killing chickens and taking eggs, and it was impossible to have them every day.

However, the old emperor has already believed in one thing, Yuzhu must have a way to get him money.

"Grandpa, I've been thinking about opening a few businesses. When the time comes, can you inscribe some plaques, okay?" Yuzhu purposely didn't ask for too many conditions, but only asked for two personal calligraphy.

Doesn't cost a big man, just spend some pen and ink, how can Kangxi not allow it?
"Yes!" After Kangxi nodded, the 30 taels of silver that hadn't been warmed up in Yuzhu's pocket became the old emperor's pocket.

"Grandpa, I'm thinking, can't we want the horse to run fast and not let the horse eat black beans?" Yuzhu took advantage of the opportunity to propose the idea of ​​​​giving benefits, "If I think about it, some money should also be distributed in the supervisory office. gone."

"Well, in the future, there is no need to report similar things in detail, you can figure it out." Kangxi took the big head and was in a very good mood, so he was naturally very easy to talk about.

"Old man, you'd better give me a handbook. In case the officials and officials will be jealous that I pay a lot of money, they will stare at me and bite me, which is annoying."

Wei Zhu thought to himself, only Yuzhu dared to talk to Longevity like this, including the most bastard Orondai in the whole court.

Since ancient times, one thing is one thing, Yuzhu has the ability to make a lot of money, and Kangxi really did it.

In order to win over Yuzhu to help make more money, Kangxi actually wrote a handwritten letter, and after using the seal, handed it to Yuzhu.

"Now, are you satisfied?" When Kangxi said this, he was actually asking, when will the 40 taels of silver be transferred to the treasury of the Guangchu Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

But Yuzhu said: "Old man, I miss my aunt."

Kangxi also understood that Yuzhu had come to Xiaoxinger.

That's right, all the silver that Yuzhu just got was drained, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone else.

"Haha, go ahead, come play chess with me tomorrow." When Kangxi was in a good mood, he was extraordinarily reasonable.

This time, Kangxi did not let Liang Jiugong accompany him, and Yu Zhu went directly out of Qianqing Palace and went to Jingren Palace.

When little Concubine Tong heard that Yu Zhu had come again, she immediately understood that her little nephew was very favored.

Over the years, I have never heard of anyone whose nephew can visit the palace frequently to see his aunt and father.

After the aunt and nephew met, Little Concubine Tong took Yuzhu's hand, and asked questions about eating, dressing, and Xiuyun's stomach.

However, from the beginning to the end, Little Concubine Tong did not mention Tong Guowei.

Taking advantage of Concubine Tong's intentional distraction from the maid, Yuzhu deliberately lowered her voice and said, "I went to see her and she is still in good health, but I have never married a wife."

Little Concubine Tong's complexion darkened immediately, that bastard dared to be so foolish, isn't this abusing her heart?
"He..." Little Concubine Tong suddenly felt a little dazed, not knowing where to start asking.

Fortunately, Yuzhu was very clever, he whispered: "The official luck is good, and now I am the deputy governor."

Little Concubine Tong wanted to continue asking, but the maid just happened to come back with a tray, so she had to give up.

Because she didn't know when she would meet again next time, Little Concubine Tong kept Yu Zhu for dinner together.

After dinner, while sitting and drinking tea, Yu Zhu told Little Concubine Tong Gui about the matter of Ninth Princess's mansion teaching Nanny Jing Qi.

Little Concubine Tong nodded, and said, "Originally, I'm too lazy to take care of Xiao Jiu's affairs. After all, her Ernie is still alive, right? Since, you little monkey said it for her. If so, then I know it in my heart, and when I change another person, I will just refer to someone with a more gentle temper."

As soon as Yuzhu heard this, he knew that the next time the next time he sent over to teach and guide Jingqi, it was probably the little Concubine Tong's person.

When it was almost time to "down a thousand taels", Concubine Tong let the jade pillar out of the palace.

This time, because Liang Jiugong was not watching, Yuzhu's harvest was much greater than last time.

Many things that were not easy to say last time, I also made it clear to Concubine Tong this time.

After returning to the mansion, Yu Zhu had just changed his official uniform when he heard a report from the porter, "Go back to the second master, the Cao family in the south has sent someone to deliver a message."

Yuzhu thought to himself, Cao Yin finally remembered him, maybe he is coming to Tongzhou soon?

Sure enough, the housekeeper of the Cao family in Beijing said that Cao Yin would arrive at Tongzhou Wharf tomorrow morning.

After the housekeeper left, Yu Zhu ordered people to get the carriage ready, and he was going out to find Qingtai.

Because Yuzhu is a concubine with two wives, Qingtai is Cao Yin's serious family.

The serious in-laws are here, and logically, Qingtai should go to Tongzhou Wharf to meet them in person.

After Qingtai heard the news, he couldn't help but smile, and said, "It can be seen that when you were in Jiangning last time, you offended your Abuha too hard!"

Yuzhu smiled slightly. To be precise, he relied on Qingtai's power to blackmail Cao Yin's large sum of money.

To be honest, Cao Yin is too stingy.Last time, Yuzhu knew nothing about the itinerary that Naersu knew about, which is a good explanation for the problem.

Naturally, Qingtai would not make Yuzhu difficult, he nodded immediately, and accompanied Yuzhu to Tongzhou Wharf early tomorrow morning to welcome Cao Yin's arrival.

That night, Yuzhu rested in the yard Qingtai left for him.

The chief housekeeper, Zhao Shan, rushed to serve him, fearing that he might neglect Yuzhu.

Yuzhu knew what Zhao Shan was thinking, so he went as he pleased.Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't let him find something to do, you'll be so hairy that you won't be able to sleep.

The next day, before dawn, Yuzhu and Qingtai went out of the city to Tongzhou in the same car.

From Chaoyang Gate to the inner city, to Tongzhou Wharf, about fifty miles away.

It takes about two hours to get to Tongzhou by horse-drawn carriage.The reason is actually very simple. A pack horse is not a car, and it is impossible to run such a long distance continuously. It is necessary to rest for a while, drink some water, and eat some forage and black beans.

Starting at Maochu, until Sichu, Qingtai and Yuzhu rushed to Tongzhou Wharf.

Originally, Yuzhu thought that Naersu must have arrived early, but in the end, only a big housekeeper from Pingjun Wangfu was guarding the official ship wharf.

Seeing this situation, Qingtai couldn't help sighing softly, and said, "The son-in-law who was valued by the in-laws didn't come. The son-in-law who didn't value him came, what is this?"

Yuzhu could hear Qingtai's displeasure, and said with a smile, "Ama, turn around, the private room in Zhimei Building, may I get you a room?"

Seeing Yuzhu's filial piety and sense of humor, Qingtai no longer pursued Cao Yin's ignorance, and sat on the second floor of the teahouse on the pier accompanied by Yuzhu.

 Notice: If there is no update around 12:[-] noon, don't worry, there must be a major event delaying it, please understand.Within a day, no matter what, there will be two updates, don't worry.
