"Master, the old master ordered me to come over. Please go over and discuss important matters."
When Yuzhu was joking with Qingwen, Longkodo's confidant Tong Jiu suddenly came to invite him.
"What did the old man say?" Yuzhu asked Tong Shijiu casually.
Tong Shijiu bowed his head and whispered, "Sir, it's your cousin Zhelkin, who came all the way to pay homage to the old man with a generous gift."
"Zheerjin?" Yuzhu felt very strange. Isn't Zheerjin a member of the Old Fourteenth Party? What is he here for?
Zheljin is indeed Yuzhu's cousin.
Yuzhu's grandfather, Tong Guowei, had six daughters. However, there are only five daughters whose names are listed in the family tree.
Among them, the third daughter, Yuzhu's third aunt's father, married Yanzhu, the fourth son of Ye Bilong, as his legitimate wife.
Well, Zheljin is her only son, and he and Yuzhu are indeed cousins who are close to their uncle!
"Oh, what did Zheerjin say?" Yuzhu asked Tong Shijiu subconsciously.
With Yuzhu's rich life experience, if a relative with whom he has almost no contact in the past and a subordinate of a hostile party suddenly comes to visit to give gifts, he is bound to get into trouble.
As the saying goes, if you show courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing!
Tong Shijiu was Longkodo's most confidant, and most of the black money Longkodo collected was handled by him.
In other words, Tong Shijiu probably knows the inside story.
Sure enough, Tong Jiu glanced around, deliberately lowered his voice and said: "Back to the master, I heard that there is a vacancy for the commander of the Zhengbai Banner Guard Army. Zhelkin is the guard commander. He is probably thinking about this.
Location?"
Yuzhu understood instantly and couldn't help but smile. He really didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything!
The Hujun Camp is divided into the Upper Three Banners and the Lower Five Banners. Among them, the Upper Three Banners Hujun Camp is responsible for guarding the palace.
As usual, when the commander of the Zhengbai Banner Guard becomes vacant, unless the appointment is made by the old emperor's special decree, the minister in charge of the guard must make a list, hand it to the imperial minister, and forward it to the old emperor.
It is also a coincidence that Yu Xiangguo is not talented, but he also happens to hold the important position of foreman and imperial minister.
To put it bluntly, if Zheerjin wants to climb up to the throne of the Zhengbai Banner Guards Army Commander, there is no point in looking for anyone. Yuzhu must nod.
Yuzhu's habit is not to touch the extremely sensitive personnel issues in the Eight Banners Army. However, he must not be displeased with the candidates recommended below.
To put it bluntly, Yuzhu had no intention of cultivating close associates in the Eight Banners Army under the old emperor's nose.
However, you can't vigorously promote your enemies or mortal enemies to create obstacles for yourself, right?
"Well, go and tell the old man that I am working in the palace as an errand." Yuzhu was clearly telling lies.
Tong Shijiu didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he had no choice but to salute and retreat obediently.
"Sir, that's your cousin." Qingwen held her big belly in her hands and looked at Yuzhu with a smile.
Yuzhu came over, put his hand on Qingwen's big belly, and said with a smile: "When my grandfather was still alive, I told him to be careful of Bibilong's big family.
Over the years, Qingwen has also read a lot of books, and has considerable attainments in chess, calligraphy and painting.
Of course she understood that Yuzhu was referring to the descendants of Bilong. Thieves like to fight in their dens.
Most people are afraid of making the family scandal public when they have to do housework, so they try their best to cover it up.
The descendants of Ye Bilong are particularly unique.
Back then, when Ye Bilong was still alive, the third brother Faka attacked the first-class Duke.
The living father and son are all members of the Duke's wealthy family. Apart from them, they are also the old Tong family.
Who would have thought that there was so much grudge between the seventh child, Aling'a, and the third child, Faka, that he secretly reported the bad things that Faka had done to the old emperor.
The old emperor was also a wonderful man. He simply took away the first-class dukedom of Faka and gave it to the informer Aling'a.
Of course, Faka was unwilling to fail, and bit Aling'a in front of the old emperor.
The old emperor was also wilting and bad. He only gave up his official position of Aling'a, but retained his first-class dukedom.
Damn it, brothers are so fiercely fighting each other that they can be described as ruthless and merciless.
The relationship between the big family of Ye Bilong is complicated.
For example, before Aling'a died, he was a key member of the Ba Ye Party.
However, Aling'a's legitimate wife, Wu Yashi, was the biological aunt of the fourth and fourth sons.
What's more interesting is that Aling'a's sons are basically members of the Ba Ye Party. However, his second daughter is Lao Qi's direct descendant Fujin.
The internal relations among the wealthy Manchu clan are intricate and intricate to the point of jaw-dropping.
Zheljin's Ama Yanzhu died early, and Aling Adai Zheljin's nephew was very good. Not only did he help him get into the army camp, but he also recommended him to Lao Shi4.
Therefore, Zhelkin is a proper member of the Fourteenth Party.
Alas, the popularity of the fourth child is so bad. Even if his uncle Aling'a doesn't support him, his uncle Bo Qi doesn't support him either.
After putting Qingwen to sleep, Yuzhu quietly stepped out, fearing to wake her up.
On the way back to the study room, Yuzhu felt quite satisfied.
Hey, his women gave birth to his cubs or daughters one after another, which just shows that his seeds have strong vitality.
When Yuzhu entered the door, he saw a graceful girl sitting at the desk, concentrating on reading. She didn't even notice that the male master had entered the door.
Yuzhu walked slowly behind the girl and looked around. He was actually reading "The Spring and Autumn Period·Gu Liang Biography".
Well, Yan Xiaoqing, the daughter of You'an layman Liu Taiqing, is also a very talented woman.
Last time, Wang Xifeng suddenly attacked. If Yuzhu hadn't stopped him, Yan Xiaoqing would have been killed and maimed long ago.
There is no way, this is just a trick of fate!
At first, Liu Taiqing's ex-husband Lao Yan and son Xiao Yan were sent to Ninggu Pagoda because they were involved in a major writing case.
The Yan family, including Liu Taiqing and her daughter Yan Xiaoqing, were all demoted to slavery by the old emperor's personal decree.
However, after Liu Taiqing gave birth to Yuzhu's biological son, Yuzhu took advantage of the overwhelming joy and begged the old emperor to show mercy and take her as a concubine, thus finally escaping from the sea of misery.
However, if Yan Xiaoqing wants to get rid of his slavery, it will not be that simple.
Because her surname is Yan, not Tong Jia.
These days, your last name has always been the basis for your daddy.
Yan Xiaoqing's surname is Yan, which is troublesome.
Even though Yuzhu was so powerful, she still had to find a suitable name to show that the old emperor had spared her.
To be honest, Yuzhu had a headache how to place the charming Yan Xiaoqing.
Because she is not an ordinary slave.
Xiao Qiuyu is not only her half-brother, but also Yuzhu's biological son.
When Yan Xiaoqing was originally asked to serve Wang Xifeng, Wu Jiang actually misunderstood and sent her there specifically.
The mother is half the master of the house, the younger brother is the serious mistress, and Yan Xiaoqing is a slave.
If they met often, all three of them would be extremely embarrassed and miserable.
Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with Wujiang's arrangement.
However, Wang Xifeng is a woman who can't stand a grain of salt in her eyes, and she is so cruel and vicious that she even dares to kill bannermen.
