Chapter 820 Playing Big Chess

Not long after Yuzhu returned to Shuchun Garden, the guards escorted four carriages and galloped away in four directions.

The person who had been guarding the door was immediately dumbfounded and wanted to chase him, but he didn't know which direction he should pursue.

After a slight delay, the carriage drove away.

In fact, when Yuzhu entered the garden gate, he heard the urgent call of the second princess.

However, Yuzhu deliberately pretended not to hear and went straight into the garden.

These days, experts in falcon boiling must all know that it is impossible to make an eagle obedient without boiling it down.

Since Boguoduo is in Yuzhu's hand, are you still afraid that the Second Princess won't come and ask for him?

As soon as Yuzhu returned home, Liu Kan, the minister of Dali Temple, came to visit him.

Before taking refuge in Yuzhu, Liu Kan was only the deputy of the Qintian Supervisor of the sixth grade.

Today, Liu Kan is able to ascend to the high position of Xiao Jiuqing, the third rank, all because of Yuzhu's promotion.

"I'll pay my respects to Mr. Zhu." After Liu Kan entered the door, he bowed his head to the ground without squinting.

These days, ordinary officials call Yuzhu: Prime Minister.

Only his subordinates who have been with him for many years are qualified to call him: Duke Zhu.

All in all, different identities and different occasions have completely different titles!

"Brother Bo Wen, you are too polite. Sit down. Come and serve tea." Yuzhu has always been gentle to his own people and never loses his temper easily.

Liu Kan often visited Yuzhu's place. He also knew that Yuzhu was easy-going and generous by nature, and he didn't stick to vulgar etiquette, so he took the initiative to get in front of Yuzhu, splayed his buttocks sideways, and sat down horizontally.

"I'll be honest with Mr. Zhu, I'm here to report something important." Liu Kan is a member of the Jade Party clique, and he is not afraid of offending others by speaking frankly.

What happened is this, Yuzhu's uncle Li Wu caused trouble again!

Because of Li Si'er's continuous subsidies, Li Wu's life in the countryside was extremely nourishing.

As a result, when we were diverting water and building canals, we had a dispute with our neighbors over land issues.

As we all know, when water is diverted for irrigation in the countryside, neighborly relations are of vital importance.

In fact, as long as you say a few more kind words and pay a few more cautions, it won't be a big deal.

However, Li Wu built the aqueduct into other people's fields.

If ordinary people were bullied, they would not dare to say anything.

It just so happened that Li Wu's neighbor had a cousin who was from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Under the guidance of the cousin, Li Wu's neighbor crossed Shuntian Mansion and went straight to Dali Temple to submit a petition.

As we all know, the imperial examination in Dali Temple will definitely alarm the old emperor.

After hearing the cause and effect, Yuzhu couldn't help but smile and said: "It doesn't matter, let them make trouble, the bigger the trouble, the better. Hehe, my reputation is already stinky on the street anyway."

Liu Kan is also a sensible person, he understood it instantly as soon as he heard it.

If Yuzhu's cronies stopped doing evil at all, the emperor would be suspicious!

Things are so ridiculous!

If Yuzhu was a gentleman, it would have been impossible for the old emperor to promote him to such an extent!

Precisely because of Yuzhu's pigtails, the old emperor dared to reuse him with confidence and boldness.

This is a typical tragedy of imperial supremacy!

Not to mention Yuzhu, doesn’t the old emperor know that Longko was making huge amounts of black money unscrupulously?

After sending away Liu Kan, who came to report the news, Yuzhu touched his chin and felt greatly in his heart.

Someone secretly reported Li Wu, but unexpectedly, Liu Kan, who received the petition, had already revealed the complete information to Yu Zhu in private.

If Yuzhu was more cruel and cruel, he would just wink and accuse the person, and his family would be destroyed immediately.

Not long after Liu Kan left, a report came to the door that the second princess of Prince Zhuang's Mansion came to ask for an audience.

"No. Just say that I went to the military camp." The heat has not yet come, and Yuzhu is not in a hurry.

Now, even if I meet with the Second Princess, the conditions negotiated are nothing more than gold, silver, jewels, land deeds, and other personal belongings.

Because the old emperor returned to the palace temporarily to pay homage to his ancestors, and it was dark before dawn, Yuzhu left the palace in a sedan chair and went to the palace for duty.

Yuzhu understood very well that although Changchun Garden was the old emperor's palace, it was only a royal garden after all. It was barely acceptable for him to ride in and out.

In the palace, how many veterans who are over seventy years old are still struggling on the way to go to court?

If Yuzhu rides into the palace in a majestic manner, God knows, how many spittles will he be sprayed to death?

According to the rules, outside Shenwu Gate, Donghua Gate and Xihua Gate, there is a "Dismounting Monument" each erected, with the words "Officials have been waiting to dismount here" engraved on it.

However, Manchu ministers or princes and nobles who were admiring the imperial horses could ride horses and enter the palace from Xihua Gate to the gate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the north side of Yingwu Hall, then dismount and walk.

Alas, the world is not as old as it used to be. We don’t worry about the scarcity of people, we only worry about the inequality!

"Please prime minister Guoan!"

"Meet the Prime Minister."

Starting from Xihua Gate and ending in front of Qianqing Palace, along the way, there was an endless stream of officials paying their respects to Yuzhu.

After the old emperor fell unconscious in Changchun Garden, he finally summoned Yuzhu to lead troops into the garden and finally calmed down the commotion.

Except for a few bookworm Qingliu, most of the officials knew very well that Yuzhu was already the old emperor's most favored minister, not one of them.

After entering the Qianqing Palace, Yuzhu first went to pay homage to the old emperor.

The old emperor slept well last night, so he asked Yuzhu with a smile: "I heard that the weird Er Gege in Prince Zhuang's Mansion is chasing you and beating you?"

Yuzhu accompanied the smiling face and explained: "King Zhuang has violated the national law, and he has his own Qing laws to severely punish him. How dare I show favoritism?"

The old emperor nodded and said: "Prince Zhuang is confused. Although he is four years older than me, he is already a lot older, but he has lived in the belly of a dog."

Yuzhu knew that the old emperor just wanted to express his dissatisfaction with Prince Zhuang, so he kept his mouth shut and waited for the old emperor to finish scolding him.

In fact, if the old emperor were ten years younger, Prince Zhuang's matter would have been laughed off at most and would not have been taken seriously.

The problem was that the older the old emperor got, the more suspicious he became, and his psychological endurance became much weaker.

After the old emperor had scolded him enough, Yuzhu asked in a low voice: "Khan Ama, do you think you should bring Boguoduo into the clan's residence?"

Yuzhu This is a typical strategy of retreating in order to advance.

If the old emperor agrees, when Yuzhu meets the second princess again, he can spread his hands and push them away.

However, the old emperor shook his head and said, "Don't worry, wait and see. I want to see who dares to speak for him?"

Almost instantly, Yuzhu understood.

I bet you, the old emperor is playing a big game of chess.

The fourteenth old man is coming back soon. If the situation in the court is unstable, will the old emperor still be able to sleep?

As a proper imperial party, there was no need for the old emperor to speak. Yuzhu immediately informed and reported: "I have ordered people to secretly monitor the major palaces and banner owners in Beijing."

The old emperor nodded with satisfaction. That's what he meant. He really didn't hurt Yuzhu in vain!

(PS: The third update will be sent. The fourth update will be updated in the early morning. My waist can’t bear it anymore, so I’ll lie down for a while.)
