lied to Kangxi

Chapter 836

In Qingxi Bookstore, the old emperor was sitting on the couch, with Song Zhu, Yu Zhu and Ma Qi lined up on both sides.

"The Tang newspaper said that the old fourteenth had already passed Datong Mansion. Well, there is no delay in welcoming him back to the capital." The old emperor set a tone in advance to facilitate the subsequent discussions.

Yuzhu didn't care at all whether the old fourteen was Beizi, Baylor, or even a prince.

Song Zhu is not only the chief Manchurian scholar, but also the chief steward of the entire imperial court.

He actually felt that it was time to rectify the name of what kind of general the old fourteenth was.

Ever since he was hammered by the old emperor when the prince was abolished, Ma Qi no longer had any arrogance.

Anyway, the old emperor can do whatever he wants, and Ma Qi will definitely not be able to persuade him.

"Long Live Lord, from the perspective of a slave, the fourteenth son of the emperor has made outstanding military exploits, so he should be promoted to the rank of General Fuyuan?" Song Zhu is the highest-ranking prime minister, and the old emperor has been staring at him, so he must speak first.

"Yuzhu, what do you think?" The old emperor was not afraid of Ma Qi's discomfort, so he passed him and called Yuzhu's name.

Yuzhu is the old fourteen's deadly enemy, and everyone knows it.

"Huihan Ama, I think that General Fuyuan and Dorobeile can't have both." Yuzhu's attitude was very clear, and he couldn't let the old fourteen take away all the benefits.

The old fourteenth became the general of Fuyuan, and the title can only be Beizi.

On the other hand, it would not be appropriate to confer the title of General Fuyuan if he was promoted to be Baylor or King of the County.

The old emperor nodded, sure enough he didn't ask Yu Zhu in vain, Yu Zhu's opinion just spoke to his heart.

The old Fourteen led a heavy army outside, and the old emperor was worried that he would return without success, or even be defeated, and also feared that he would threaten the imperial power with his outstanding military achievements.

Yuzhu's proposal is a compromise solution, which not only remunerates the military merits, but also does not let the old fourteen's achievements overwhelm the master, it can be said to have the best of both worlds!

"Ma Qi, tell me." The old emperor finally thought of Ma Qi.

Ma Qiha lowered his waist and said cautiously: "Return to master, this servant thinks what Song Zhongtang said is true."

Yuzhu is more than 30 years younger than Ma Qi, and his qualifications are too far behind.

It is impossible for Ma Qi to openly support Yuzhu's position in front of the old emperor just to maintain the dignity of the veteran Zhongtang.

Correspondingly, Song Zhu was only three years younger than Ma Qi, and he was also the Prime Minister of Manchuria.Supporting his proposal, Ma Qi has no psychological burden at all.

In the study room, counting the old emperor, there were only four people.

The smaller the number of people, the easier it is to reach a consistent opinion, and a small circle of the highest decision-making is formed in essence.

"Okay, then, according to Song Zhuzhi's request, I will issue an edict to the old fourteenth Fuyuan general." The old emperor changed the subject, and then ordered, "As for the reception etiquette, follow the example of Prince Yu Fuquan. , plus [-]%."

Back then, Prince Yu Fuquan almost became emperor.

When Emperor Shunzhi was critically ill, the new emperor that the Empress Dowager first considered was Fuquan.

Unexpectedly, Fuquan said in front of the Empress Dowager that he was willing to be a virtuous king.

As a result, the big pie that fell from the sky hit the old emperor's forehead.

This concession of Fuquan gave up the inexhaustible glory and wealth and the good beginning and the good end.

In history, there is a similar lucky person.

As the eldest son of Tang Ruizong and the former crown prince, Li Xian took the initiative to give way to Li Longji. Not only did he have a good death, but he also had a very awesome posthumous title after his death: Emperor Ren.

Yuzhu's eyes flickered slightly, and the attitude of the old emperor was very clear.

The status of the old fourteen is higher than that of the emperor's brother Fuquan and lower than that of the crown prince.

General Fuyuan is not an official of the imperial court.

Back then, Yu Zhu, who had held this position, handed back his seal after victory and return to court.

To put it bluntly, in terms of etiquette, the old emperor was indeed generous.

However, the old emperor did not give the old fourteen any real titles and powers, such as the prince of the county or the military power to manage the Three Banners.

After the agreement, Ma Qi knelt down knowingly.

After Ma Qi withdrew, the old emperor asked Song Zhu abruptly: "The old fourteen took the initiative to submit a booklet and intercede for King Zhuang, what do you think?"

After Prince Zhuang Bo Guoduo was arrested, he was neither interrogated nor convicted, and was kept alone in another courtyard by Yu Zhu.

Song Zhu subconsciously glanced at Yuzhu, he felt a little strange, the old emperor didn't ask Yuzhu the person involved, why did he ask him?
The emperor asked, but Song Zhu didn't dare not answer, he said cautiously: "Long live Lord, King Zhuang is the prince who is the head of the clan, how to deal with him must not be careless."

Seeing the old emperor looking at him, Yuzhu said: "Brother Fourteen has made outstanding military exploits, and the court can't chill the hearts of the heroes."

Song Zhu didn't understand at first, why did Yu Zhu speak for the old fourteen?
Looking back, after the analysis of the staff around him, Song Zhu suddenly realized that the more Yuzhu praised the old fourteen, the more the old emperor feared the old fourteen.

The old emperor in his later years wanted to use the old fourteen, but refused to give him the crown prince, mainly because of Hongxi.

According to Yuzhu's guess, the fourth child who is too old has been completely out of the game.

However, the old emperor has been vacillating between Hongxi and the old fourteen.

Hong Xi, talented, pure character, very popular.The fly in the ointment is that he has never done an errand, let alone conspiring with secret parties.

Old Fourteen is ten years younger than Old Four, and in his thirties, he is the ideal candidate for Mr. Guo Lai.

However, the abominable old eight, leading the ninth and tenth, and the huge Manchurian noble group, publicly supported the fourteenth, which made the old emperor extremely disgusted.

If the old fourteenth was really appointed as the prince, the absolute authority of the old emperor would definitely be greatly weakened.

According to Yuzhu's secret observation, since the second abolished prince, the old emperor has been vacillating between Hong Xi and the old fourteen.

Yuzhu's biggest competitor now is not the fourth child, nor the fourteenth child, nor Hongxi, but Longkodo.

To put it bluntly, at the moment the old emperor died, whoever was the commander of the infantry, Yuzhu or Longkodo, had a great advantage.

After so many years, Longkodo has been infused with the ecstasy soup of the fourth child, so that he doesn't know his last name.

Even though they are as close as father and son, Longkodo has never discussed with Yuzhu about who will support him in the future.

Because Long Laosan and Yu Zhu took turns to control the military power in the capital, and their two public positions had no choice but to be pure ministers.

What's more interesting is that Yuzhu knows Longkodo's hole cards clearly.

As for Yu Zhu's hole card, Long Lao San had no idea at all.

The old fourteen is coming back soon, if Zhuang Wang keeps shutting it, it is tantamount to slapping the old fourteen in the face.

However, Yuzhu's words reminded the old emperor that the old fourteen should not be too complacent.

So, after careful consideration, the old emperor decided to continue to lock up King Zhuang.

The important task of receiving the old fourteen was also handed over to Song Zhu.

When he came out, Yu Zhu pursed his lips into a smile, and the tiger sometimes dozed off.

A wise man has a thousand worries, and he must have a loss!
The more the old emperor feared the old fourteen, the more room for Yuzhu to maneuver.

Family discord, outsiders bully, that's the reason.

When Yuzhu returned to the mansion, he just happened to see that the old twenty, the old 21 and the old 22 came to play with Xiaoxuanyu together.

"Greetings to Brother Zhu." The three little princes stood in a row and saluted Yuzhu respectfully.

If it's just the old twenty, Yu Zhu can just return the salute.

However, old 21 and old 22 also came together.

"Brothers, it's too much courtesy." Yuzhu dodged to avoid the salutes of the princes, and returned the salute with a long bow.

As we all know, Xiao Xuanyu is the companion of the old twenty.

Among the little brothers, after getting to know each other well, the thick-skinned twenty-year-old would often follow Xiao Xuanyu to come to Tongfu Hutong to eat and drink.

The imperial tea dining room in the palace, its grades, specifications, and safety measures are far better than those of Old Tong's.

However, if you ask about the taste of the dishes and the deliciousness of the snacks, the palace is far inferior to Yuzhu.

Jianghu really has no size.

In public, it is reasonable for the three princes and Yuzhu to call each other brothers.

However, in private, the little princes and Xiao Xuanyu are also called brothers and sisters, which is quite different.

Yuzhu called Xiaoxuanyu to him, and after a few instructions to pay attention to safety, he took the lead to enter the mansion and went back to Xiuyun's side.

Xiao Xuanyu wanted to bring guests back to play, Xiuyun already knew about it.

"Master, there are so many princes and elder brothers who always come to our house. I'm afraid it's not right?" Xiuyun asked Yu Zhu worriedly.

Yuzhu put down the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile: "What's wrong? The biological mothers of the old twenty and the old 21 are both concubines of the Han Dynasty. The biological mother of the old 22 was born under the flag of Zhenghuang. Not worth mentioning."

"Besides, among the three of them, the oldest, Twenty, is only 15 years old, and he is still young."

What Yuzhu said immediately made Xiuyun laugh.

In fact, Xiuyun is also very clear that the old 21 and the old 22 are willing to play with Lai Tongfu Hutong. The main reason is that the old [-] has a lot of glory from Xiaoxuanyu.

After the twenty-year-old's biological mother Gao entered the palace, her parents, brothers and cousins ​​also moved to the capital.

It is not an easy task to settle so many people.

Before Xiaoxuanyu served as a companion for Lao Er, the relatives of Lao Er's mother's family had a hard time.

Now, it is quite different!

Inquiring all over the capital, no matter what the Gao family is doing, which yamen dare not give face?
People go to high places, water flows to low places, even the prince is the same!
This is an objective law!
In the palace, the princes actually rarely had the opportunity to drink alcohol.

When they arrived at Yuzhu's house, there was enough wine, but some people drank too much.

This man, if he drinks too much, accidents will inevitably happen.

While Yu Zhu was eating, he listened to Wu Jiang's report.

"My lord, something has happened. My [-]th master drank too much. When I rested my feet to sober up, I took the accompanying maid..."

Yuzhu knew in his heart that it is difficult for a person who is really drunk to get up.

Since Old Twenty was able to clean up the accompanying maids, it meant that he didn't drink too much.

Having said that, however, the women in the palace were broken, and they were in great trouble.

Xiuyun was very anxious, but Yuzhu wasn't too worried.

There is a secret that others must not know, and it is impossible for Yuzhu to know.

Because, although the old emperor turned over his sign every day to call for bed, he hadn't had sex for a long time.

There is no way, the old emperor is almost seventy, even if he drank stag blood wine, at most he would feel hot all over his body.

"How many people know about this?" Yuzhu opened his mouth and asked the key point.

Wu Jiang knew how powerful it was, and said in a low voice, "I have carefully counted it, and there are five people who know about it."

"Well, put these five people and their families in one yard as errands, understand?" Yuzhu made a decisive decision.

This matter is big enough to pierce the sky.

To put it bluntly, in fact, as long as the 61 years of Kangxi have been hidden, it is not a big deal at all!
