In Jiu Beile Mansion, Brother Jiu asked someone to come over to Cao Shun. Cao Shun thought he was asking about the siege and said: "Sir, the horses are ready. The guards and soldiers who will follow have also decided on the candidates. The guards have reported.
"At the Nanyuan paddock, you have to ride a horse, whether you are holding the flag or marching with the guard.
Brother Ninth Brother's mounts, Baylor Mansion has two of them, and the rest are at Xiaotangshan Villa. Brother Ninth Brother shook his head and said: "I didn't call you here for this reason. Fusong has other errands. He wants to step down as the chief of ceremonies. I want to promote you."
Come up..." After hearing this, Cao Shun hesitated and said: "I am not qualified enough, so I was promoted to the second-class bodyguard not long ago." The second-class bodyguard of the Lower Five Flags is from the fourth grade, and the chief of ceremonies is from the fourth grade. He just looked at it.
There's only half a level difference, but civil servants are different from military attachés.
When a civil servant is transferred to a military attaché, he or she is usually promoted at the same level or one level; when a military attache is transferred to a civil service officer, he or she is downgraded by one level. Brother Jiu shook his head and said, "It's okay if I say it. If you don't have the patience, choose someone new." That is to choose from among the staff.
The candidates were Cao Shun, Gui Yuan and Gui Dan, who usually took over the general affairs.
Cao Shun's experience and ability were both higher than those of the Guo Luoluo brothers. Cao Shun was not humble, and with gratitude, he said: "That slave, thank you for your advice..." Starting from the third day of the lunar month
Following Brother Ninth, it has only been four years since he went from being a student supervisor to a fourth-grade master of ceremonies, and his rank has almost caught up with his uncle's.
You know, his Amma has been serving as a third-class bodyguard for more than twenty years. Last year, he took up a job in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and went to Jiangnan to buy copper.
Brother Ninth was also in a good mood and said to Cao Shun: "I still remember that I tormented you a lot when you first came to Beijing. You spent most of the year on the road." From Jiangning to Beijing, from Beijing to Yunnan, and then from Yunnan back to Beijing.
, and then go to Jiangning.
In one year, he traveled thousands of miles. Cao Shun smiled and said: "Thanks to my master, my slave has also gained experience. Others can't get away with this hard work." This was also a sign of respect for him. First, he went to Yunnan to buy tea mountains.
Later, I took people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to Jiangnan.
"Private visit". Brother Jiu said: "You have been watching the chief of ceremonies' errands in the past few years. If you have any questions, ask Fusong immediately. After a few days, he should be busy." Cao Shun nodded.
Yes.
Brother Jiu thought that Cao Shun was living in the North Courtyard now and there was still someone free in the second courtyard in front, so he said: "I remember that the third courtyard in the south is still empty. You can arrange for someone to sweep it and move it there."
!" Cao Shun thanked him again for his kindness.
He had remarried and had more women, so it was indeed more convenient to enter the hospital for the second time. After Brother Ninth said this, he went back to the main courtyard.
Shu Shu also felt that Cao Shun was a good choice for the chief of ceremonies, and said: "I am impatient to change people. I can use them for a few more years this time." Brother Jiu thought about Cao Shun's age and said, "We will wait until he has served his third term.
.” When the seniority and age are available, it will be easy to get promoted.
Kangxi remembered that he had arranged for Prince Jian and Prince Yu to enter the palace on the same day.
When they met outside Qianqing Palace, the two looked at each other.
"Brother Wang, did the emperor send us to come over?" Prince Yu was a little uneasy. Although Prince Yu's palace is a close branch of the clan, he is also the emperor's nephew, but since the beginning of the record, the palace has been quiet, and the prince's temperament is very...
Modesty and restrained.
Prince Jian was more confident and said: "It must be about the siege. Khan Amma thought of us." He lost his mother when he was young. He was raised in the inner court when he was a child and was raised with the princes.
Called Kangxi
"Khan Ama". Prince Yu nodded, remembering that Prince Gong's Palace borrowed an imperial doctor a while ago. Today, he only called Prince Jian and him, not Prince Gong's elder brother. Is it because of that?
The royal family is the royal family, and the clan is the clan. There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. You should be more cautious. When Liang Jiugong came out, he sent two people in.
Kangxi indeed remembered the siege the day after tomorrow and said: "How are your riding and shooting skills? But you are slacking off, I will take the test the day after tomorrow!" Prince Jian immediately held his head high and said: "Khan Ama, just take a look at it. My son never slacked off for a day. He shot three out of three times with his twelve-strength bow, and he will not embarrass you!" Prince Jian's archery skills were taught by Kangxi himself.
Kangxi couldn't help but smile when he saw that he was like a little rooster, and said: "Princes of the royal family are supposed to be models of armor for the Eight Banners, so I will take a good look at it when the time comes!" After praising Prince Jian, he looked at Prince Yu.
Compared with Prince Jian who looked strong and mighty, Prince Yu looked a little weak. His elder brother also had a difficult time with heirs, losing sons and daughters one after another.
Of the six sons and six daughters, seven died in infancy. Five are now alive, two sons are adults, and one son and two daughters are still in their infancy.
This heir is too weak. Prince Yu, the eldest son, is more delicate. Kangxi said: "You have to read books, and you can't relax in riding and shooting. Riding and archery are the foundation of the Eight Banners." Prince Yu, the eldest son, said: "I will obey the emperor's order. Practice riding and shooting well." Kangxi nodded before telling them about the pox station.
After hearing this, Prince Jian's face became more solemn. Before he accepted the title, he had walked with the flag and had rotated with the six tribes in the clan mansion, but he had never done any errands alone.
This was the first task he took the lead at the moment. Prince Yu also listened carefully. When he heard clearly that Prince Jian was the leader above, and Fu Song was preparing the vaccine station below, he knew that he, the deputy, was just filling in the numbers.
Prince Jian became the head of the family, and knew that if he wanted to do this job well, he needed money and people. He said: "Khan Ama, how much money is expected to be? Select people according to the color of the flag. Dozens of clans and Jueluoque , plus the errands and worshippers, there are about a hundred people, this place is small and it is not enough." Kangxi said: "Now the household department is abundant, but we can't throw away the money. You guys make a budget. , if you can be frugal, you should be more frugal..." Prince Jian nodded and said: "This salary is a big one, so lower the grade. The highest is the sixth-grade principal, and the others are seventh-grade and eighth-grade, with no grade, so you can save one Big pen." Kangxi said: "You guys can discuss it and hand it over later." Prince Jian and Prince Yu agreed and came out from the imperial palace.
Prince Yu asked: "Did Jiu Beile propose this vaccine institute? Otherwise, why would the emperor order the chief of ceremonies over there?" Since Fusong is the chief of ceremonies of Beile Mansion, many generations of Jiu Prince have come forward to fight with Prince Yu. Face to face.
Prince Jian knew better and said: "In the thirty-nine years of experimenting with cowpox, it was Fusong who was in charge. The emperor chose him to build the vaccine institute. It was probably for this reason that we couldn't do it with our heads covered. We had to have someone knowledgeable as counselor." ." Prince Yu nodded and said: "It turns out that this is the reason. My Amma has praised Fusong before for his stability. Among the children of the clan, he is the first to return to the yellow belt." Prince Jian said as if he had something to say. He thought: "The work of the Pox Institute has been completed. A Feng'en general is the guarantee. It cannot be said that he is a Fengguo general. Then it is no longer an idle clan." This is
His cousin, the emperor is willing to reuse him, and he will be somewhat distinguished in the future. He, as an uncle, is also decent.
Just say that Jiubele Mansion is related to him, and he is also close to him on weekdays. Prince Yu thought of the difference between Prince Jian's Mansion and his own family.
Prince Jianxiu also participated in the Battle of Ulan Butong and was Prince Gong's deputy. He also tried to seize the title for his crime, but the emperor gave him grace and only fined him a salary of three years.
Among the eight great kings, Prince Jian is the only one who is not a descendant of Taizu. The emperor seems to be more tolerant to distant clans.
Yaerjiang'a's nephew is more dignified in front of the emperor than his own nephew. After leaving the Donghua Gate of Qianqing, Yaerjiang'a said: "Go directly to our house, and then call Xiao Fusong. Let's see what he has planned. Your Majesty is sending an errand at this time, probably hoping that we can strike while the iron is hot." Prince Yu agreed, got on his horse, and followed Yaerjiang'a to Prince Jian's Mansion.
Yaerjiang'a's people also went to Jiubele Mansion to look for someone. Fusong happened to come back from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so he followed him to Prince Jian's Mansion...* Waiting until the next day, Jiu Age went to Zhezi and recommended Cao Shunwei, the second-class bodyguard. Master of Ceremonies at Baylor House.
Your Majesty is right. In the past few years, Cao Shun has been with Ninth Elder Brother and met him several times. Because of Cao Yin, Kangxi loved his house and his family and had a good impression of Cao Shun.
Cao Yin's original heir...Kangxi was also a father, so he could understand that Cao Yin was closer to his biological son. However, thinking about Cao Yin, Cao Shun's uncle and nephew did not change their relationship because of their relationship. Cao Quan still regarded his eldest brother as the leader, and Kangxi was very It's gratifying.
In a small family, the three melons and two jujubes are all fighting for success. The Cao family has such a smooth transition, brothers, friends, and brothers are respectful, and it is also a good tutor.
This is a change in the staff of the Baylor House. Not many outsiders know about it, but everyone in the Baylor House knows it.
Cao Shun arranged for people to sweep the yard, which also fell into everyone's eyes. Zhang Tingzhan couldn't help but sigh when he saw that the newly minted fourth-rank official was not just a descendant of the clan like Fusong, but also the brother-in-law of the ninth elder brother, or he had been promoted by himself.
Outside, he didn't say anything. In the dead of night, when the couple were chatting at night, they said: "I have been in office for four years, and I am a twenty-six-year-old Zhengsi. At this age, I am still a concubine in the Hanlin Academy. This flag is missing." Turnaround is really fast." He was a member of the imperial examination in the 17th year of Kangxi's reign, and was ranked second and second in the imperial examination. He was an official for more than 20 years before he was promoted to the third rank.
Gu said: "I'm looking at you, it's not necessarily because the flag is rising faster, but because Jiu Beile likes to use young people." Except for Zhang Tingzhan and Cao Yueying, who were pointed out by the emperor, the people chosen by Jiu Age are all young people.
Zhang Tingzhan touched his beard and said: "It's a pity that the banner men are different, and the subordinate officers cannot be mixed. Otherwise, the sixth brother can get close to the ninth master..." *North Second Courtyard, Erhe's house.
Guizhen Gege looked at the gift list and felt that it was hot to her hands. It was not even the twelfth lunar month, and someone had already sent the New Year's gift.
When Erhe came back from Baylor Mansion, Guizhen Gege said: "Are you targeting me? The second-class bodyguard Cao Shun vacated, they want me to recommend..." Erhe waved his hand and said: "It will be better after a while. The gift in return has passed, and we will not interfere with this. It is up to Master Jiu to decide who is promoted to the second class and who is promoted to the third class." Guizhen Gege also abides by his duty.
They have benefited from Brother Ninth and have not made any contributions to Baylor Mansion, so how can they dare to be arrogant...
