After dinner, Yuzhu went inside to his study, writing furiously.
Qian Yinglan silently polished her ink, but she was thinking about how to talk to a man.
The governor of Liangjiang whom Longkodo was about to take office happened to be in charge of Changshu, the hometown of the Qian family.
Qian Yinglan's father, Qian Jincheng, and her two brothers have been secretly engaged in activities against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, and are in an extremely dangerous situation.
According to Qian Yinglan's idea, she naturally brought her father and brothers to the capital to enjoy their old age in peace, so as not to be frightened all day long.
However, Qian Yinglan himself also knew that this hope was extremely slim.
Just because the infamy that Qian's family was burdened with was too irritating to Qian Jincheng.
At the worst, if the Qian family and his son fall into the hands of the government, can someone rescue them?
Scholars, regardless of gender, are very clever.
Qian Yinglan wronged herself and obeyed Yuzhu, mainly because she was worried that Yuzhu would be angry and might cause harm to her father and brother. At the same time, she also wanted to leave a way for her father and brothers to survive in case of rainy day.
Yuzhu's status as a great nobleman allows him to naturally speak and contribute to the Qian family without having to worry too much.
If Yuzhu was just a Han minister, no matter how high his status was, he might not have the courage to speak for the Qian family and his son who were arrested.
People under the eaves must bow their heads!
After Yuzhu finished writing the excerpt and put down his pen, he suddenly realized that Qian Yinglan had lowered his head and kept sharpening his ink.
Hey, obviously I have something on my mind and got distracted!
Yuzhu is naturally aware of Qian Yinglan's biggest worry.
If he hadn't had too many worries, Qian Yinglan wouldn't have complied with Yu Zhu's wishes so humiliatingly.
As for Yuzhu, I don't expect Qian Yinglan to really have him in her heart.
Anyway, Yuzhu's idea is that if there are flowers that can be broken, just break them, don't wait for the flowers to fall and break the branches.
As long as Qian Yinglan stays by his side obediently and satisfies Yuzhu's special feeling of holding his wife, that's fine.
In this cannibalistic society, there is almost no one in the powerful class who does not do evil.
For example, the so-called Fourth Prince of England, who is admired by hundreds of millions of people, has a record of extorting money in private, forcing businessmen and their families to hang themselves, and then forcibly seizing property.
Relatively speaking, when Yuzhu came back from robbing Qian Yinglan, he was already the whitest crow among the black crows!
As long as we are human, we must have shortcomings.
To be honest, when the power in Yuzhu's hands gradually became unrestricted, thanks to the soul of modern people, it helped him suppress his evil thoughts.
Objectively speaking, as long as Yuzhu can serve Kangxi comfortably, if he wants to do evil, the price will be infinitely close to zero.
Yuzhu picked up the tea cup, took a sip of the slightly cold tea soup, and deliberately teased Qian Yinglan: "You want to show off again?"
Qian Yinglan was stunned for a moment, and then she woke up and couldn't help her pink cheeks getting hot.
Yuzhu smiled slightly and said: "You, you read too many books and think too much, which is not good. Now, take a look at this first, and then think about it carefully, how can you repay me?" He raised his hand.
On the note I just wrote.
Qian Yinglan was a little hesitant, but in the end he stretched out his bright wrist, picked up the booklet whose ink was not completely dry, and read it word for word.
"Walking in the South Study Room, the slave Yuzhu...recommended Jiangnan scholar Qian Jincheng and his two sons to participate in the compilation of "History of the Ming Dynasty"..." Qian Yinglan read out involuntarily, and the more he read, the more excited he became, and the more he read, the more beautiful his eyes became.
Bright.
After Yuzhu entered the South Study Room, he remained silent unless the emperor asked.
Recommending Qian Yinglan's father and brother to participate in the compilation of "History of the Ming Dynasty" was the first time he took the initiative as a staff member of Nan Shufang.
Seeing Qian Yinglan staring at his face shyly, Yuzhu laughed softly and said: "The so-called big things in your family are trivial to me. Qingqing, how can I do this? How can I do it?"
It all depends on your performance."
Qian Yinglan has been eaten up by Yuzhu a long time ago, and now she has to pretend to be as protective as a jade, then she is making herself uncomfortable!
"Master, I don't hate you anymore." Qian Yinglan jumped into Yuzhu's arms, bit the man's ear, and hummed softly, "Bully this slave hard."
Zhang Ailing's famous saying can only be interpreted in a subtle way.
On Lao Ba's side, the review process was quickly completed.
Everything in the palace must be done according to the rules.
Now that Lao Ba passed the test, Yuzhu came to see Concubine De with the roster of candidates.
From the standpoint of the fourteenth old man, Concubine De naturally had no favorable impression of Yuzhu.
However, we are all actors in the scene. When we cannot take advantage of each other, we must continue to act in accordance with the requirements of the script.
What's more, Yuzhu is definitely not a soft persimmon who can be manipulated at will by Concubine De.
After Yuzhu made the grand ceremony, Concubine De politely offered her a seat.
"Manager Yu, I heard that there is a beautiful girl who doesn't respect herself?"
Concubine De spoke very well. Although she didn't say it explicitly, she was hinting to Yuzhu, don't you, the specific person in charge, have some responsibility?
Yuzhu stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Back to your Majesty, I have indeed made some oversights. Please allow me to avoid you."
In official circles, it is a big taboo to go forward and never retreat.
Yuzhu had long wanted to stay out of the matter and watch the drama of the three kings competing for a girl.
If Concubine De allows Yuzhu to go home, Yuzhu will definitely accept it happily.
Isn’t it nice to watch the fire from the other side?
But the problem is that the old emperor personally assigned Yuzhu to be responsible for drafting girls. If Concubine De asked Yuzhu to go home and rest, wouldn't she be going against the old emperor?
"Since you know that you have made an oversight, you should do your job well and not let down the emperor's trust and entrustment." Concubine De has been in the inner palace for decades and has never failed. How can she be like this?
"Hey." The jade pillar went down and listened respectfully to the instruction.
In this round, he and De Fei were tied, with no winner.
However, after this fight, De Fei had a new understanding of Yuzhu. The little bastard was slippery and was an extremely difficult guy to deal with.
When masters compete with each other, as soon as they make a move, the expert will know the details.
"Kneel down." Concubine De and Yuzhu really had nothing to talk about, so they simply kicked him out.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Unexpectedly, Yuzhu knelt down and said: "I'm sorry, Weichen's aunt has not been in good health. Weichen kindly asks you to go over and visit. Please allow me."
Since Yuzhu became the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he actually had many opportunities to meet Concubine Tong Jia.
For example, the charcoal is low, the vegetables are yellow, the clothes are not made to satisfaction, the reasons are all ready-made, and there is no need for Yuzhu to deliberately think of ways to make up stories.
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
However, Yuzhu applied to see the imperial concubine in front of Concubine De, which seemed very meaningful.
Except for the imperial concubine who is not a permanent member, the concubine ranks first among the concubines. This is the unquestionable palace rule of the mother.
Ordinary people, who would dare to make the Concubine De, who has the power to photograph the Sixth Palace, angry?
However, Yuzhu had this confidence and was not afraid of offending Concubine De at all.
The truth is actually obvious. As long as Concubine De loves Lao Shisi, she will never be happy with Yuzhu.
The greatest advantage of Concubine De was that she was good at disguising her true thoughts and trying her best to cater to Kangxi's wishes.
"You also know the rules in the palace. I can't make the decision. I can only submit to the Emperor's Holy Judgment." As soon as De Fei's words of excuse came out of her mouth, she secretly regretted it.
Because, Concubine De suddenly remembered that Yuzhu was not only the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but also the commander of the infantry.
The commander of the infantry army had a privilege that no other minister had, that is, he could go to Changchun Garden anytime and anywhere to deliver a sign to the old emperor.
"Honoring your aunt is the way of human ethics. I will take the risk to make the decision and take care of it for you. Go and see the imperial concubine." Concubine De's courage to quickly correct her wrong decision really surprised Yuzhu.
Now, Concubine De took the initiative to give in, but did not say that she would send someone to accompany Yuzhu to Jingren Palace.
This means digging a hole and waiting for a suitable time to bury the jade pillar in the future.
On the contrary, it was not convenient for Yuzhu to go see his aunt immediately, so he could only find an excuse and leave the palace on his knees.
In this round, De Fei took the initiative to lower her body, used softness to overcome strength, forced Yuzhu back, and gained a slight upper hand.
After Yuzhu left, the fourteenth old man came out from the back of the palace and shouted angrily: "Such a treacherous and sycophant, Khan Ama would believe him. I really don't understand."
Concubine De frowned and stared at Old Fourteen, feeling quite unhappy.
Compared with Yuzhu, who is good at assessing situations and taking the initiative to avoid pitfalls, Lao Si4 is like a spoiled child, and his words are extremely ridiculous.
"Old Fourteen, listen carefully. It's best to stay away from Old Eight. The further away, the better. Do you understand?"
Just as Concubine De wanted to teach her own son a lesson, she was silenced by the fourth son.
"Concubine, you have the roster for the second round in hand, what else do you have to hesitate?" The fourteenth old man thought that the overall situation was decided, so he happily urged Concubine De to quickly handle Nian's matter smoothly.
"Old Fourteen, have you thought clearly? Are you really willing to offend your brother to the bone for a lowly woman?" Concubine De felt her scalp numb and her head tingling as soon as she thought about how she had no way to explain to Old Four.
Buzzing.
"Concubine, to tell you the truth, Khan Ama's body has always been very strong. However, the fourth brother is too old..."
The Fourteenth is not a fool, he is reminding Concubine De in disguise that the Fourth is close. If the Nian family is taken over by the Fourth, it will be a waste of huge strategic resources.
Fifty years after Kangxi's reign, the old emperor's physical condition became a top secret. Even the Queen Mother was not qualified to access the records of the imperial physician's pulse examination.
However, this did not affect Concubine De's understanding of the old emperor's physical condition.
Because Concubine De had long played the role of chatting with the old emperor, and she could always tell some clues when she was very close.
Old Fourteen was right, the old emperor could at least live for a few more years.
By that time, the fourth child will probably be over forty.
A prince who is too old will basically have no chance of being crowned king.
Because when Kangxi was chatting in private, he often lamented that among the 16 emperors of the Ming Dynasty, very few lived beyond the age of forty.
Moreover, if Emperor Shunzhi lived to be forty years old, the new emperor who would take the throne would probably not be Kangxi.
"Oh, I'm tired, please kneel down and make peace." Concubine De waved her hand and drove away the fourteenth old man.
Just because she has been thinking about it, if Nian is intercepted by Lao Sijun, what will Lao Si think?
