The little petite bag of the fourth master of Qingchuan

Chapter 329 Wait and see
As a result, when Hongyun came over, he had just sat down, and before he had time to wipe his sweaty face, he said to Gu Yaoyao, "There are a lot of people at Ama's place!"

When he was in the front yard just now, he saw all of Ama's usual staff come over - there are a few faces here, Hong Yun is already very familiar with them.

The staff greeted the little elder brother in a hurry, and they didn't bother to say anything, so they were led into the house by Su Peisheng.

Then the people in Ama's study were closed for a long time.

It wasn't until the next night, when the fourth elder brother came to Huabu Xiaozhu, that Gu Yaoyao found out that something happened to the eighth elder brother.

The flood of the Yellow River became more and more serious. At the time of the crisis, Kangxi decided to transfer money from the treasury to the disaster area, but at this juncture, he discovered that the treasury had already been short of money.

The household department managed by Ba Age is in big trouble.

It turned out that after the eighth elder brother took office with anxiety, nothing happened for half a year.

After recuperating for a period of time, the eighth elder brother gradually relaxed his vigilance, and gave birth to the heart of returning to favor.

After all, his heart of wanting to seize the throne has never been calm.

People's hearts need to be won over, but they should be won over in the dark.

It should not show up in the open.

The eighth elder brother understood that his biggest mistake before was: exposing his strength to his father prematurely.

So this time, the eighth elder brother continued to govern the household department, and borrowed money from the ministers of the DPRK and China many times in order to win people's hearts.

Some officials need to rely on borrowed money to live because of family difficulties; there are also some officials who are greedy and aim at the silver in the treasury like a piece of fat.

The eighth elder brother harmed the interests of the imperial court in this way and provided convenience for everyone, and everyone was naturally grateful.

After a long time, this trend became popular, and everyone came to the household department to borrow money.

Those who are short of money will keep accounts, and those who are not short of money will come here to profit from it every now and then.

Although the amount of silver taels borrowed each time is not much, but after all, the scope is too wide and the number of times is too frequent—a small amount becomes a lot, and after only half a year, it has rolled into a big snowball.

That's why this time the Yellow River flooded and the national treasury was short of money.

After Kangxi finished listening to the report, he dropped the notebook on the spot.

What an old man!

But after all, the threat of floods is imminent, and now is not the time to pursue these matters.

Kangxi had no choice but to order on the spot to pursue the money.

It's just that Kangxi didn't say which prince was specifically responsible for the recovery work.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor actually wanted to give Eighth Brother a chance to make meritorious deeds.

After all, he was the one who lent the silver taels, and the national treasury was in deficit because of him.

Now this mess should naturally be cleaned up by him.

This makes sense and is presentable.

As long as the eighth elder brother has a little bit of shame, he should stand up at this time and take the initiative to ask for a job——Kangxi thought so.

But... He never expected that the eighth elder brother would actually fall ill right here - it is said that he was overwhelmed with worry, physically and mentally exhausted, overwhelmed, and couldn't even get out of bed.

Now they are all taken care of by those who serve the tea and pour water from the Blessed Fortune.

Kangxi just sneered when he heard the imperial doctor came to report.

What was even more unexpected was that the eighth elder brother followed up with a book, pushing the fourth elder brother Yinzhen to take over the matter.

To recover the shortfall and check the account department.

Hello fourth brother!
The fourth brother has always taken the overall situation into consideration, and understands the stakes involved, plus the qualifications accumulated in the court over the years, as well as the relationship with the Zhijun King and the deposed prince...

To deal with this matter, is there a more suitable person than the fourth brother?

……

Liang Jiugong was teaching a young maid who served the wrong tea outside, when he suddenly heard the laughter of the Long Live Lord inside.

Liang Jiugong was taken aback, and waved his hand to make the little maid retreat, and he quickly stepped into the hall.

Lord Long Live sneered.

After laughing, he threw the notebook in his hand heavily to the ground, and all the pens, ink, papers and inkstones on the table were also pushed to the ground.

Kangxi's face was tense, and his beard trembled slightly.

Liang Jiugong had no choice but to kneel on the ground, and tremblingly went to pick up the booklets, his whole body shrinking back, almost turning into a tortoise.

He knew that in the past few days, the matter of the household department was a big problem lingering in Long Live's mind.

This is the basket that the eighth elder brother poked out, and now it is the book that the eighth elder brother handed over - it is estimated that, as expected, the other elder brothers must have been pushed out to pick up this hot potato.

Long live Lord has no shortage of people to use - even if the elder brothers are not needed, there are still a bunch of capable people and ministers below.

He just wanted to see that the eighth elder brother could make a statement, at least he could take this responsibility.

But at the moment, Eighth Prince's idea is obviously the opposite of Long Live Lord.

Alas, the eighth elder brother is clever but is mistaken by cleverness-too smart is not a good thing.

Comparing with Long Live God?
You are too young.

……

Kangxi stood up, got off the dragon chair, walked around the imperial case three or four times, and finally said: "Jiu Gong, let someone clean up this place, and pass it on to Si Baylor."

Liang Jiugong repeatedly agreed, and his disciple behind him was fast and wanted to run outside the hall, but Liang Jiugong grabbed the whip.

idiot!

Don't look at Long Live saying these words in one breath, in fact, he is very particular - make sure to clean up the place first, and then invite Sibei Le over.

Can't let Si Baylor see that Long Live got angry just now.

……

"So you want to check the household department?"

Gu Yaoyao asked the fourth elder brother.

The four elder brothers nodded.

Gu Yaoyao whispered: "You don't need to leave the capital, do you?"

She was really scared - after this epidemic, she was especially afraid that the fourth elder brother would leave the capital.

The fourth elder brother knew what she wanted, raised his hand to touch her cheek, and swallowed what he wanted to say: "Basically, there is no need."

He cleverly left a leeway for this sentence.

It is not necessary for the Ministry of Accounting to leave the capital, but if it is necessary to raise funds for disaster relief in the later stage, then maybe.

And this kind of task is often just walk away.

Gu Yaoyao is not stupid, hearing the subtext of his words, she lowered her head and thought in her heart: Si elder brother's luggage has always been packed by the main courtyard, she is a side Fujin, so it is not good to do it for her.

But if he really wants to go out, she must fully learn from her experience and lessons, and prepare a super complete epidemic prevention gift package for him!The kind that is invulnerable to all poisons.

He must never be tricked again.

The fourth elder brother looked at Gu Yaoyao without speaking, his eyes flickered and flickered, as if he was full of thoughts, he raised his head and lowered his head for a while.

He knew she was worried about him.

The fourth elder brother felt warm in his heart.

He stretched out his hand to pull Gu Yaoyao into his arms, smoothed back the slightly messy hair on her face, and smiled nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I can handle it."

His tone was full of eager self-confidence and ambition. Compared with his calmness over the past few years, he was hardly the same person.

Gu Yaoyao looked up at him, and felt that the subtext of his words was actually—a great opportunity was just around the corner.

And wait and see.
