The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 369 Attacks
A few days later, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households sent official documents to various places, and the main destinations of these official documents were Xuanfu Town and Liaodong Town.

And following these official documents are letters sent by Jia Ke to various places. These letters are Jia Ke's method for his generals to deal with the court. Didn't you not pay me a military salary?Then I'll do it myself, and then we'll see who can't step down.

And the court is now starting to be turbulent. With the news that Jia Ke's direct troops have been deducted from the army's salary, those civil servants who were afraid of Jia Ke's authority and hid before have all jumped out now.

So various memorials to impeach Jia Ke reappeared, the most of which was that the servants in Jia Ke's house bullied others, and Jia Ke was not strict in discipline.Some people even made up nonsense that Jia Ke invaded and killed people.

Jia Ke was already very annoyed by the emperor's tricks, he thought this time it was the emperor's trick again.What does it mean to reduce the military pay for his direct descendants just now, and now command so many people to impeach him?
So this time, Jia Ke did not send these authors to the emperor, but used his power as the head minister of the military aircraft department to directly reject them all.

Jia Ke's attitude clearly told the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty that if you want to impeach me, you must first take away the power of me, the head minister of the Military Aircraft Department.Otherwise, none of your memorials will be delivered to the emperor.

Although several other military ministers also had the power to submit memorials to the emperor, they all knew that the emperor had just made a move a few days ago to deduct four tiers of salary from Jia Ke's direct army.If you continue to get entangled in this matter, I am afraid that the emperor's great affairs will be ruined by then.Therefore, these people turned a blind eye to Jia Ke's actions, as if it had never happened.

Besides that, they also warn the people of their faction.Be more honest during this time, don't hold on to Jia Ke, in case Jia Ke gets annoyed and misses the important matter of the emperor.In the end, neither the emperor nor Jia Ke could let them go.

And the emperor had known Jia Ke's method for a long time, and he dismissed the memorial privately, and didn't even send it to him. To be honest, he was very annoyed.But looking at Jia Ke like this, it is obvious that he, the emperor, is in charge.If there is a conflict with him now, then the next plan will cause trouble, so the emperor also pretended not to know that Jia Ke rejected the memorial without his consent.

In fact, the emperor was not clear about this matter, and if he wanted to blame him, his action of weakening Jia Ke's power was so obvious that almost everyone could see it.So these ministers rushed to impeach Jia Ke in order to please him.

Those who impeached Jia Ke in the court saw that the paper was quickly dismissed, and the instructions above were all: not allowed, and the official name of Jia Ke was signed. Only now did they know Jia Ke's power and did not accept it. Not as shaken as they thought.

They even saw the weakness of the emperor, and which emperor could tolerate the existence of such an unscrupulous power minister like Jia Ke.

They also saw Jia Ke's strength in this matter. This is not something that a human minister can do. It seems that the emperor and Jia Ke will never die.So everyone quieted down and waited to see who would win in the end, the emperor or Jia Ke.

But before the result was reached, Jia Ke even wrote a document, demoting all four or five people who impeached him the most viciously to Hainan.

Originally, according to the rules, the appointment and removal of officials had to go through the emperor and the Ministry of Officials, but this time Jia Ke directly sent an official document to the Ministry of Officials in the name of the Military Aircraft Department, ordering the Ministry of Officials to demote these people to Hainan.

Liu Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials and Military Affairs, knew Jia Ke's situation well during this time, and at the same time, as the emperor's confidant, he knew how unhappy Jia Ke was feeling now.Therefore, there was no obstacle to Jia Ke's outbreak this time, and he sent it directly in the name of the Ministry of Officials.

This can also be regarded as a kind of appeasement from the emperor to Jia Ke, otherwise Jia Ke will continue to be suppressed, I am afraid that Jia Ke will really die.

So these unlucky guys went fishing in Hainan together, and even the court officials were afraid of Jia Ke's power. When these people left, none of them went to see him off.

Jia Ke actually didn't want to be so tough, but since Jia Ke became the head minister of the Military Aircraft Department, these civil servants have united to impeach him several times. The Supreme Emperor protected him a few times ago, and this time the Supreme Emperor also had a rift with him. , I'm afraid I won't help him.

So this time it was all up to him to get through it, and the emperor had deducted his military salary a few days ago, if he didn't lose his temper, everyone in the world would think he was a piece of dough, and whoever wanted to knead it a few times.

After this incident, Jia Ke, in order to show that his power had not declined, and to give the emperor a warning, ordered the infantry commanding the Yamen army to go to the streets immediately. The apparent order was to strictly investigate Xiao Xiao and maintain law and order in the capital. In fact, Brother Jia sent troops to the streets this time to show the ministers who put eye drops on him. I, Jia Ke, still lead an army of hundreds of thousands, so stop dangling in front of my eyes with your little tricks.

When the emperor got the news, he was reviewing memorials in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. During this period of time, the number of memorials reviewed by the emperor has become less and less. This is because Jia Ke deliberately suppressed many important things, and only gave some trivial matters to him. The emperor approved it.

The emperor is well aware of this matter, if not for the fact that the emperor is still in control of the hidden guards, several military aircraft in the military aircraft department are also loyal to the emperor, and often report the situation to the emperor privately, so that the emperor is well aware of the situation outside the palace , Now the emperor is blind.

The emperor was looking weakly at a memorial from a certain county in the south of the Yangtze River. It was about a rich family forcing a widow to remarry in order to occupy the property, causing the widow to commit suicide by hanging herself.

At this moment, his personal eunuch Xia Shouzhong came to the emperor in a hurry.

Seeing the emperor, Xia Shouzhong didn't even have time to salute, so he came to the emperor's ear and whispered: "Long live, Jia Ke ordered the infantry to lead the army of the yamen to the street."

When the emperor heard this, he trembled with fright.He thought Jia Ke was doing the opposite.The emperor forced himself to cheer up and ordered directly: "Go, let our people in the imperial guards send troops immediately to protect the palace and prevent Jia Ke from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

Xia Shouzhong didn't delay after listening to the emperor's order, and immediately went out to deliver the order.

After a while, the main generals of the forbidden army who had already had contact with the emperor surrounded the palace with their troops.

And this incident also alarmed several people in the Military Aircraft Department.

Liu Yu, Lei Ying, and Tian Ye didn't care about other things when they got the news, and ran to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as the three of them entered the hall, the emperor asked them directly: "Jia Ke ordered the infantry to lead the yamen to go to the streets, do you know?"

As the leader of these people, Liu Yu immediately replied: "Long live, Jia Ke didn't greet us at the military plane, we don't know about it."

And Tian Ye, who was standing below, also came out of the class and said: "Long live, the current situation must not be fueled. Jia Ke's situation is that during this period of time, the long live Lord and the civil servants in the court are persecuting too much. If he doesn't respond, then the It's strange. Now that he has reacted, we can rest assured that Jia Ke will not be caught in this matter."

After listening to Tian Ye's words, Lei Ying, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, also nodded and said yes, "Master Tian is right, as long as the emperor sits in the palace and Jia Ke quarrels for a while, he will be fine after losing his temper."

After listening to the analysis of the two of them, the emperor was relieved. He was really frightened just now.At the same time, he also regretted his reckless action this time. He only considered how to force Jia Ke, but he didn't expect Jia Ke to resist so fiercely.

This incident was exactly as Tian Ye had expected. After Jia Ke made a fuss for a while, he sent the infantry yamen back to camp.This matter gradually calmed down, but the consequences were huge.Because of this incident, the courtiers have fully seen that the offense and defense between Jia Ke and the emperor have been out of place.

Many factions that previously swung left and right have now tipped the scales in favor of the jacket.

And it was in this situation that Zhou Rui brought Jia Ke's invitation and 4000 taels of silver.Visited Nan'an County Prince's Mansion.

As the housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion, although he brought Jia Ke's invitation, he still couldn't see the head of the Nan'an County Palace.However, the long history of Nan'an County Prince's Mansion warmly received Zhou Rui.

The two parties sat down in a small hall in Nan'an County Prince's Mansion.

The long history of Nan'an County's Palace was the first to speak: "Steward Zhou, what is the important matter of coming to our Palace this time?"

Zhou Rui didn't dare to neglect this long history.Hearing his question, he quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, please ask me, this time I am here for nothing, because my son-in-law had some conflicts with a relative in your mansion a few days ago, so he is still detained in Shun In Tianfu Prison. I apologize for coming here this time."

After Zhou Rui finished speaking, he ordered his servants to bring in the wooden box behind him, and opened it himself, only to see a box of silver shining brightly on the other side.

Seeing him like this, Chang Shi understood what it meant, and he also knew about it.A poor relative of their old concubine went bankrupt and came to the capital with money, intending to buy a good thing for the old concubine in order to please the old concubine. Little officer.

But he didn't expect that the things he bought this time were wrong. As a result, he almost hanged himself because he had already lost his fortune for this little money.The old concubine is getting old now, and she hasn't seen anyone from her hometown for a long time, and this time she got angry immediately when she heard about it.Immediately took her post and sent people to Shuntian Mansion.This led to this case.

He also went to Shuntian Mansion to inquire about this matter, and knew that the person who was taken down had some relationship with Rongguo Mansion, and the two masters of Rongguo Mansion had already handed over posts, wanting to get him out.As a result, Yin of Shuntian Mansion did not dare to let him go because of the post from the old concubine of Nan'an County.

Now this Zhou Rui came to visit with the post of Jia Ke, the pillar of the Rongguo Mansion, and sent back 4000 taels of silver, which is already enough face for the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion.Logically, things should go like this, after all, the two families are family friends, and the Rongguo Mansion handed over the ladder to go downstairs.

But now that the old concubine's anger is still there, he dare not make decisions about this matter.So he said to Zhou Rui: "I have accepted your uncle's post, and put the money here first. I will report back to our old concubine to see what the old man means? Go back and wait for the news."

Then without saying anything to Zhou Rui, someone sent him out.Zhou Rui had no choice but to go back home and wait for the news, but was scolded by his wife as soon as he got home.He thought it was too humble for him to go this time, and if he showed some aura, the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion wouldn't dare to treat him like this.

Now that Zhou Rui thinks about it carefully, what his wife said is still reasonable. He was too low-key just now. If he showed some momentum, the other party would not dare to kick him out directly.
