Qing Palace: Biography of Concubine Shu

Chapter 769 Extra Story

For several consecutive days, Yinzhen was busy leaving early and returning late. Shu Yun had to wait in the study, waiting for Yinzhen's return.

Near midnight, Yinzhen dragged his exhausted body back, and found that the lights in the study room were still on, so he hurried in to have a look, and found Shu Yun sitting on the grand master's chair, waiting for him to come back.

"Master, why is it so late?" Shu Yun wondered.

After Kangxi sent envoys, Yinzhen was always busy until late at night, and even the twins hadn't seen Yinzhen for a few days.

"Little boy, why didn't you sleep?" Yinzhen sat beside her, looking at her with a smile on his face, "I told Su Lan to let you go to bed early."

Shu Yun pursed her lips and smiled, "Master, am I waiting for you?"

The study room is very cool, and the two of them are tired of being together, and they don't feel very hot.

He held her in his arms, and finally let go of his frowning.

"Little boy, it's really good to have you waiting for me!" Yinzhen's deep voice reached her ears.

There was a smile on her little face, and Yinzhen liked to spend more time with her and the twins, but he had to deal with what Kangxi told him, otherwise, this matter might endanger the safety of the military port.

"Master, aren't you going to train these few days?" Shu Yun asked in a low voice, lying on his shoulder.

Before Xu Zhen came over, he told Shu Yun that she must not interfere with the training outside.

"Well, I don't plan to go to training, I can't do it these few days!" Yinzhen hugged Xiaoguai and said, "Besides, this matter is related to the Cao family!"

Yinzhen has been holding back in his heart for a long time, and has been secretly investigating behind the scenes for the past two days. The Cao family has hidden a contact place here, and every year they will continue to send money to the Cao family. He must admit that these The silver must be transported to the capital.

"Little boy, we must use Yuelai Inn this time." Yinzhen thought about it for a while, Shu Yun had to intervene in the business affairs.

what? !

"Why did you prepare it at Yuelai Inn?" Shu Yun glanced at Yinzhen, did he start from the business world? "You have to have conclusive evidence, otherwise, you can't use the Yuelai Inn for business competition."

She has also experienced some things, so she knows that the Cao family has been entrenched in the south for many years, and it is not something ordinary people can solve, even if Yuelai Inn can compete with its store layout.

"Now, this is also a helpless move." Yinzhen sighed, Kangxi was still dealing with Cao Yin, hoping to buy Yinzhen some more time. "The Cao family's mistakes are complicated. In order to completely eradicate the source of the Cao family's silver, Kangxi has been keeping a close eye on the Cao family, hoping to make Cao Yin restrain himself. Now, Cao's mother is gone, and Cao Yin has always used the image of filial piety. It shows that the better the performance now, the lower it will be in the future.”

Yinzhen collected some information about the Cao family, those who were in collusion with the imperial merchants, and most of those volumes were benefits paid by the imperial merchants to the Cao family.

"What?!" Shu Yun exclaimed.

She always felt that most of the Cao family's silver was obtained from officials in the south of the Yangtze River, but now, she felt that she was narrow-minded.

"There are many movements in the business world, but the shopkeepers of Yuelai Inn can see it more clearly. Some imperial merchants even have some intersections with Yuelai Inn." Yinzhen asked Shu Yun.

In the past few days of investigation, the storekeepers of Yuelai Inn are all capable and can collect effective information from many places. The people at the sticky poles are not as good as the collection ability of Yuelai Inn.

"Of course, I personally arranged the people at the Yuelai Inn. They kept collecting and summarizing information. Ama asked me to keep monitoring the actions of the imperial merchants, so I can only do this!" Shu Yunle was helpless explained.

After the words fell, Yinzhen woke up instead. Kangxi told Yin Dehe that Shu Yun must keep an eye on the shop in the south, and the Cao family is Yinreng's largest provider of tribute silver.

Yinzhen's face darkened, Kangxi obviously didn't like Cao Yin's behavior of accumulating money, Yin Dehe was ordered by Kangxi to investigate, and he should have found something wrong.

"Hehe, in fact, the Cao family used the tax money from Jiangnan." Yinzhen's complexion was very bad, and Cao Yin's actions were hidden recently. If they want to really find the tax money, they must start from two aspects.

"What?! Is it taxes?!" Shu Yun looked at Yinzhen in surprise.

Yinzhen nodded, the tax was entirely paid to the Ministry of Households, but in the past few years, the tax has been reduced, which is obviously manipulated by someone maliciously.

"Master, do you think this tax is really from the household department?" Shu Yun laughed. Half of the tax money in the south is in the warehouse of the household department, and more of it is for the prosperity of the official circles in the south.

"It shouldn't be counted. Most of them will use the officialdom and military camps in the south of the road. You can see that the military camps in the south are so simple. It should be that the military salary is not in place." There are many troubles in the officialdom in the south. If there is no such military salary Foreshadowing, the gray income of the officials, the gray income of the officials has increased every year. In the past few years, under the leadership of Cao Yin, the officials in the south have been very rich in their pockets.

"Under the circumstances of Cao Yin's arrangement, the officials in the south are becoming more and more ignorant!" Yinzhen must admit that the officials have become more and more extravagant. During the southern tour, Shu Yun discovered the problem, "Moreover, those bankers They were all distributed by the officials, and if the military salary is not in place, those generals will definitely not work hard anymore."

When the military port began to recruit people, the generals came over happily.Some generals didn't do much in the barracks, and they came here, fully hoping that they would have a chance of promotion.

"No wonder, Ama always said that the city defense deployment in the south is worse than other places. Every time I come here, the officials in the south will make a lot of superficial actions during Kangxi's southern tour." Yinzhen said helplessly.

what? !

During the southern tour, Shu Yun found that the deployment of the city defense was weak. She has always found that every time Yin Dehe proposed some improvement plans, the officials in the south would obediently follow suit, causing Kangxi to repeatedly say that Yin Dehe's handling ability in the south is not good.

Now, Kangxi understands the truth, but thinks that Yin Dehe's handling ability is still okay.

"Don't worry, father-in-law will definitely not be talked about!" Yinzhen patted Shu Yun's back, making her completely relax. "Huang Ama recently punished his father-in-law for the sake of showing others, nothing will happen!"

Yinzhen's promise made Shu Yun relax, and it was not easy for Yin Dehe not to be involved.

"Little boy, father-in-law will come over in two days!" Yinzhen told Shu Yun in a low voice that Yin Dehe came here secretly.

Namu is training in the navy, so Yin Dehe said on the surface that he looks after his children.
