In the early morning, Yuzhu reluctantly got out of Liu Taiqing's fragrant quilt.
When I was washing up, it was already snowing heavily outside.
The eldest girl, Han Hua, was arranging Yuzhu's clothes and said with a smile: "Master, I ordered someone to put an extra charcoal basin in the warm sedan to avoid the cold on the road."
Yuzhu nodded but said nothing.
When clothes come, he reaches out his hands, when he comes to eat, he opens his mouth. He is always being served by someone, like a parasite. This is the true portrayal of Yuzhu's life today.
In the past eight years, the girls around Yuzhu got married one after another as they got older.
The newly appointed chief maid, Han Hua, was just a rough girl when Hanshuang was in power.
A woman these days is considered a leftover as long as she is over seventeen and has not married.
As the saying goes, when in a country, do as the Romans do, and jade pillars are not exempt from the customs.
The girls around Yuzhu, as long as they are over 18 years old, will be arranged to get married regardless of their rank.
Objectively speaking, among all the girls around him, Yuzhu's favorite is Niu Tai's wife, Hanshuang.
That girl Hanshuang not only knows the current affairs, but also has a kind-hearted temperament and a very pleasing tongue.
To be honest, even if Niu Tai didn't take the initiative to propose to Hanshuang, she wouldn't be able to marry badly.
With Yuzhu's status, there are countless scholars who want to become his disciples.
As long as the rumor goes out, someone will come to ask for Hanshuang's hand in marriage.
To put it bluntly, with Yuzhu's power, he secretly made a deal with Li Guangdi, so that the scholar can be promoted and the scholar can be promoted as a Jinshi.
Li Guangdi had been prime minister for decades, and his disciples were all over Hanyuan. It was not easy to do anything secretly.
It must be admitted that the strongest has its own right.
No matter how shrewd Yuzhu was, he was not as thorough as Li Guangdi in understanding the tricky tricks that could be done in the imperial examination.
As for Li Guangdi, as he gets older, the day when he begs for bones is getting closer and closer.
Relatively speaking, Li Guangdi needs the unparalleled favor of Yuzhu to secretly protect the Li family's nephews.
As an official, who is not afraid of being liquidated by political opponents for future generations after stepping down?
When Wu Jun was alive, he suppressed Li Guangdi for the rest of his life.
Even if Wu Jun died, the Wu family would still live a happy life under Yuzhu's special care.
As the old saying goes, if there are people in the court who support you, it will not only be easier to be an official, but it will also be easier for your family to be blessed.
The relationship between Yuzhu and Li Guangdi is not a mentoring and mentoring relationship in the traditional sense, but more like a cooperative relationship of equality and mutual benefit.
Li Guangdi's disciples were all over the government and the public, and Yuzhu's real power shrouded the capital. The two guys hit it off and had secretly cooperated many times.
After so many years of cooperation, Li Guangdi and Yuzhu have always been very happy with each other. They have always been careful about each other's tyrannical strength and have not broken the contract.
Both parties to the cooperation are roughly equal in strength. Even verbal promises without paper are still effective. There is no need to worry about breaking the promise.
In winter, Yuzhu prefers to go to court in a warm sedan chair.
After entering the palace, the two young eunuchs who accompanied him carried lanterns to light the way ahead.
Yuzhu, on the other hand, walked calmly and squarely towards Qianqing Palace.
When I arrived at the gate of Qianqing Palace, I saw someone riding a horse who had arrived earlier than Yuzhu.
Riding horses in the Forbidden City, also known as court horse appreciation, is an extremely honorable special treatment.
Under normal circumstances, only important ministers who are over sixty years old and have served as prince's disciples are entitled to the special gift of riding horses in the Forbidden City.
This kind of gift is extremely glorious and extremely beautiful!
Yuzhu knew well that so far, there was only one veteran alive who enjoyed the treatment of riding horses in the Forbidden City.
Xu Yuanmeng, whose surname is Shu Mulu and whose courtesy name is Shanchang, is from the Zhengbai Banner of Manchuria. He was a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Kangxi's reign.
This year, there were still more than ten years before Yuzhu was born.
Xu Yuanmeng's deep qualifications are evident from this.
Since it was Xu Yuanmeng who came, out of respect, Yuzhu did not rush him, but stepped aside.
Just under Yuzhu's nose, Xu Yuanmeng slowly entered Qianqing Palace.
Looking at Xu Yuanmeng's back, Yuzhu thought to himself, if he entered the palace so early, he was here to persuade the old emperor to re-appoint his second son as the crown prince, right?
In the old TV series, because of the needs of the plot, the prince's teacher was deliberately described as Wang Juan.
According to historical records, Xu Yuanmeng, who once served as Crown Prince Zhongyun, was the serious teacher who deposed the Crown Prince.
Moreover, Xu Yuanmeng was also a serious teacher of Yongzheng and Qianlong.
Through four dynasties, he served as emperor twice, and was also a Manchu scholar. In the entire history of the Qing Dynasty, Xu Yuanmeng was the only one!
As for Wang Tuan, he only explained the daily life notes to the princes in the study room.
After Yuzhu entered the Qianqing Palace, as usual, he first led people to inspect the palace's defenses, and then came to see the old emperor.
However, when I walked outside the door of the old emperor's study, I heard the old emperor's angry roar of filial piety coming from inside.
"I have spoken long ago, and anyone who dares to speak about the establishment of a prince will be severely punished. This old man dares to turn a deaf ear to all my words. He is arrogant and arrogant. If anyone comes, he will be thrown out and beaten to death with sticks. !”
"Hey." Yuzhu smiled bitterly in his heart and led the guards in.
Unfortunately, Yuzhu will not be here sooner or later.
However, when Yuzhu arrived at the door, the old emperor lost his temper.
Xu Yuanmeng, relying on his seniority, actually raised the proposal of reinstating Prince Yinreng in front of the old emperor.
From Yuzhu's point of view, I actually understand the old emperor's anger.
Prince Yinfeng was deposed twice, despite the numerous crimes listed. In fact, they were all crimes he wanted to incriminate, so why bother and have nothing to say.
In the final analysis, it’s just one thing.
As long as Yinfeng sat on the throne of the prince, the dying old emperor had no sense of security. He had to worry about the changes in the Xuanwu Gate all day long and did not dare to sleep a wink.
The prince who had been in power for more than thirty years, after being deposed once, was still able to gather a large number of party members who held real power. The old emperor was really worried!
When he deposed the crown prince, the old emperor deliberately killed all of Yin Reng's haha beads, in order to cut off the loyal wings around the second son.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, what is unexpected is that before the second deposed prince, Suo'etu was already dead, and there were still several important Manchu ministers at the level of minister.
, gathered around Yin Reng, forming a huge force that threatened the imperial power.
To be honest, the old emperor was really shocked and frightened!
Just imagine, Yin Reng was deposed once, and his prestige was greatly damaged, but he was still able to gather a huge force, and even reached out to the army.
How could the old emperor not be on high alert?
After Yuzhu entered, he walked quickly to Xu Yuanmeng, waved his hand in a measured manner, and said politely: "Master Xu, please."
The old emperor was furious. When he saw Yuzhu's style, he couldn't help but said angrily: "What kind of Master Xu? He wants to rebel, do you understand?"
Ordinary people, faced with an old emperor who was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, would have been so frightened that their legs would be weak and they would kneel down.
Yuzhu was not afraid of the old emperor's anger. He deliberately lowered his head without making a sound, but kept urging Xu Yuanmeng with his eyes.
Leave quickly, if you stay here you will die.
However, Xu Yuanmeng not only did not leave, but instead frowned and said: "Master, even if you kill the slave, the slave will still say that the country cannot live without reserves..."
Yuzhu's head ached for a while, and he didn't have time to think too much. He stepped forward and covered Xu Yuanmeng's mouth with his hand, and shouted sternly: "Slave dog, you old man, you dare to talk nonsense, why don't you get out of here?"
Seeing Yuzhu secretly making a familiar gesture, Seile, who had followed in, also hurriedly stepped forward. The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, forced Xu Yuanmeng out.
The old emperor was very angry, and it was obvious that this matter could not be let go.
After dragging Xu Yuanmeng to the side hall, Yuzhu raised his hand and slapped Xu Yuanmeng hard in the face.
Xu Yuanmeng was completely confused. He stared at Yuzhu stupidly, his mouth trembling with anger and his whole body shaking.
Objectively speaking, Xu Yuanmeng never expected that as the mentor of the princes and a senior minister, he would be slapped sometimes.
"Humph, Xu Yuanmeng, all your sages' books have been read into the dog's belly? Well, besides being older, what else do you think you are? How dare you force yourself into the palace by yourself? Dog, beating you is already considered a light thing.
, I will ask for an order when I get back, and kill all your family members." Yuzhu scolded loudly on purpose.
When serving the old emperor, you can't be disobedient, but you can't be too obedient.
How should I put it, if it weren't for Xu Yuanmeng, Yuzhu wouldn't bother to take care of what happened today.
If anyone else wanted to be killed or beheaded, it would be up to the old emperor to deal with it, and Yuzhu would definitely not be able to intervene.
However, Xu Yuanmeng's is extraordinarily different.
After the Tatars entered the customs, in order to stabilize their country and out of practical needs, they had to win over Han landowners and scholars.
The basic national policy of the Qing Dynasty, in addition to uniting with the Mongols to control the Han and using the Han to control the Mongols, was to particularly respect Confucius, the eternal teacher.
Kangxi often claimed to be a benevolent king and boasted frequently!
However, after killing the prince's master in a rage, Kangxi's reputation as a benevolent monarch would definitely collapse completely.
At that time, what would the old emperor think if he knew that the jade pillar was outside, but ignored him and allowed Renjun's archway to collapse?
Therefore, Yuzhu thought very clearly. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Instead of temporarily avoiding it with huge consequences, it is better to intervene directly.
Anyway, after the old emperor's anger subsides, he will figure out Yuzhu's sincerity in maintaining the good image of his father.
On a cold day, when Yuzhu slapped Xu Yuanmeng on the cheek, he slapped her on the cheek very skillfully.
Soon, two extremely obvious purple finger prints were left on Xu Yuanmeng's round, fleshy face.
There were two finger prints instead of five. In fact, Yuzhu deliberately held back his strength when he was about to be slapped in the face, so as not to knock the sixty-year-old man unconscious suddenly.
In case of excessive force, Xu Yuanmeng was old and would be beaten to death without being beaten.
By that time, no matter how favored Yuzhu is, it will be tragic.
That would be self-defeating!
Just when Yuzhu was scolding Xu Yuanmeng with a bang on his face, Wang Chaoqing trotted over and said with a bow: "Master Zhu, long live the master asked you to come in."
