Chapter 798 Hard Backer

Logically speaking, there should be a deep conflict between Songzhu and Yuzhu, the prime minister and the deputy prime minister.

However, since Yuzhu never took the initiative to take power, the two of them always lived in peace.

Song Zhu was worried about Yuzhu's future.

Yuzhu was worried about the old emperor's suspicion.

Two guys with ulterior motives have a chance to cooperate.

If ordinary people had jointly signed the pledge and wanted to shirk responsibility, the old emperor would have been furious.

However, the old emperor knew well that Song Zhu and Yu Zhu were not in the same group.

Two important ministers who were not in the same group actually had the same opinion. It can be seen that the two people were really not willing to praise the old fourteenth too much.

The old emperor was both annoyed and relieved, and his mood was very contradictory.

Both the foreign minister and the internal minister stand on the side of safeguarding the imperial power and will never cling to the old fourteener. How could the old emperor be unhappy?

Now that Yuzhu and Songzhu had unified their opinions, the old emperor simply issued an order and ordered Prince Zhuang Boguoduo to take full responsibility for the matter of the fourteenth's return to Beijing.

After things took a turn for the better, Yang Sen quickly filled the gap as governor of Shanxi.

Song Zhu was also an old fox in the officialdom. He did not come forward himself, but secretly instructed other people's disciples to recommend Yang Sen.

In the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty, everyone knew how to do tricks, and it was up to them to trick the old emperor.

Yuzhu remained silent.

After Yang Sen accepted the order, he suddenly realized it and hurried over to see Yuzhu.

"I pay my respects to the Prime Minister." Yang Sen bowed to the ground and respectfully paid homage to the jade pillar.

Yuzhusheng accepted Yang Sen's gift, then smiled and said: "Senpu, you are too polite, please sit down."

"Thank you, Prime Minister." Yang Sen leaned forward and sat on the left side of Yuzhu.

Yang Sen was originally a fourth-grade Changbao Taoist priest in Pianyuan Province.

Since following Yuzhu, Yang Sen's long-stagnant official career has soared.

In the fifty-fourth year of Kangxi's reign, after being introduced by the Ministry of Personnel, Yang Sen was appointed as the Left Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

After completing his qualifications in the Ministry of Punishments and being posted as governor of Shanxi Province, Yang Sen's future was extremely bright.

With the support of Yuzhu and local achievements, if Yang Sen returns to Beijing after completing his term, he will be promoted to minister. If he is transferred to another place, he can be promoted to governor.

Anyway, in the Qing Dynasty, it was a clear rule that those with strong backing would be promoted quickly.

Among all the governors in the world, Yang Sen is the only person who can truly be regarded as Yuzhu.

"When your majesty meets, if the emperor asks about your governance principles, you must tell the emperor that you should put agriculture first and never mess around." Yuzhu gave Yang Sen face-to-face instructions.

Yang Sen nodded frequently and said very piously: "I would like to thank Xiang Guo for your teachings."

Yuzhu was a close minister of the old emperor, and he knew the old emperor's temper very well.

With Yuzhu's secret guidance, Yang Sen had obtained the golden key to please the old emperor.

Su Keji, the former governor of Shanxi, served for more than ten years and caused a lot of resentment among the people of Shanxi because of his nonsense.

When Yuzhu was in the capital, he had long heard that Su Keji had a bad reputation.

People from Shanxi deliberately made up jokes, saying, "Li Shu in Jin Province has a long history of hard work and great achievements."

The Su here means Tong Shu, and Shuo Su is the homophone of Shuo Shu.

Yang Sen was an honest and diligent official, and Yu Zhu had been secretly observing him for many years, but was not worried about his massive corruption.

However, not being greedy does not ensure career advancement. You also need to do things that the old emperor likes.

"I heard that the temples in Wutai Mountain are quite dilapidated?" the jade pillar pointed.

Yang Sen understood and said: "Most of the business people in Jin Province are good people and worship Buddha. I guess they will donate money enthusiastically, right?"

Yuzhu nodded slightly, cough, a boy can be taught!

The governor of this province wants to repair the temples in Mount Wutai. How dare Shanxi merchants not bleed?

Moreover, the special nature of Wutai Mountain determines that the old emperor will definitely be very happy when the construction is completed.

It is extremely difficult to figure out what you want. It is easy to say it is easy. In the final analysis, there are only four words: do what you like!

After sending Yang Sen away, Wu Jiang suddenly came to report, and Zhao Donghe brought Lin Yaner's sister Lin Xiaoer to the door to ask for an audience.

Yuzhu knew as soon as he heard that Yang Sen's appointment as governor of Shanxi made Zhao Donghe ready to make a move.

Speaking of which, when Yu Zhu first met Zhao Donghe, he was only the sixth-rank magistrate of Daxing County.

After more than ten years, Zhao Donghe has been promoted to the fourth rank of Shuntian Fu Cheng.

Objectively speaking, after reaching the fourth rank as an official, as long as you have a strong backer, your future will be bright.

Back then, Zhao Donghe was very discerning and took the initiative to give Lin Yaner to Yuzhu.

This is equivalent to becoming a brother-in-law with Yuzhu in disguise.

With Zhao Donghe's temperament that likes to work in camps, if Yuzhu fell in love with Lin Xiaoer, he would definitely offer him up without saying a word.

"Invite him to come over." Yuzhu told Wu Jiang calmly.

Wu Jiang bowed and added: "Master, do you want to ask Aunt Lin to show up?"

Yuzhu nodded, agreeing with Wu Jiang's proposal.

So, Lin Xiaoer was invited to Lin Yaner's side, and Zhao Donghe came to pay homage to Yuzhu.

"My disciples pay homage to the Prime Minister." When Zhao Donghe came to see Yuzhu, he always knelt before him.

Yuzhu knew that Zhao Donghe was a villain, but still promoted him. This involved an extremely profound philosophy of employment.

"That's all." Yuzhu knew Zhao Donghe very well, and this boy had a servile nature about him.

To put it bluntly, the more polite you are to him, the easier it is for him to get carried away.

On the contrary, being lukewarm to him made him more obedient.

Zhao Donghe was used to standing and talking. After he stood up, he put on a smile and said with cupped hands: "To the Prime Minister, I heard something, and I came here to report it to the Prime Minister."

After all these years, who still doesn’t know who?

The more Yuzhu pretends to be the prime minister, the harder Zhao Donghe will work to report, and he will succeed every time.

"What's the matter?" Yuzhu asked Zhao Donghe casually.

Zhao Donghe gathered his energy and whispered: "I heard that Prince Zhuang, under the instigation of the Eighth Master and others, planned to make a deal and use the courtesy of the Crown Prince to welcome the Fourteenth Master back to the capital."

"Oh, how did you know about such a confidential matter?" Yuzhu didn't take it seriously, but showed interest on his face.

Seeing that Yu Zhu's attention had been attracted, Zhao Donghe couldn't help but perked up, cupped his hands and said, "I heard what Eunuch He from Lord Jiu's house said personally."

Well, people like Lao Ba, Lao Jiu and Lao Ten are all idiots with loose mouths.

Not to mention anything else, just asking Taoist priests to tell fortunes, saying that the king is king, and telling the party members widely is an extremely serious act of stupidity.

Since ancient times, those seeking the throne have always entered the village quietly without making any noise.

As the old saying goes, when Wang Mang was humble and did not usurp the throne, he meant not to expose strategic goals prematurely.

Lao Jiu has always been lax in controlling his subordinates, and there are countless situations where people around him leak out.

Eunuch He in Lao Jiubeizi's Mansion, Yuzhu was extremely impressed by him.

Because, Eunuch He’s name is: He Yuzhu.
