"Fourth brother, how about I go and persuade Yuzhu again?" Seeing the sad look on the fourth brother's face, the thirteenth brother couldn't sit still.
Lao Si said very distressedly: "Yuzhu is a super realistic guy, he only cares about benefits. What can you do to persuade him? Is it okay to just talk in vain?"
"Hey, I don't know what Yuzhu is thinking. His Ama has long... It's good for him, but he doesn't rely on all sides. Is he planning to go all the way to the dark side?"
What Lao Shisan said was a bit vicious.
The road ends in darkness, which obviously means that the old emperor will not live long. As a lonely minister, if Yuzhu continues to be stubborn, he may not have a good death!
If there was a royal censor present, he would definitely reprimand Lao Shisan in person for his treason.
"That's all. If he wanted to help me, he would have stood up long ago. Why did he wait until today?" The fourth child waved his hand in a dazed manner.
Old Thirteen also has a headache, Old Four treats him like a brother and sister, and Yuzhu is also very kind to him. Being caught between these two people, alas, it is so uncomfortable.
However, Lao Shisan knew better than anyone else that only when Lao Si became emperor could he succeed.
This is the fundamental benefit!
In comparison, the little kindness that Yuzhu showed is not worth mentioning!
"Fourth brother, I want to ask you something." Although Lao Shisan sided with Lao Si, he was still a sentimental person after all.
"Tell me." Lao Si was aware of Lao Thirteen's request, and he strongly disagreed with it, but he was somewhat touched by Lao Thirteen's kindness and righteousness.
"Fourth brother, if, I mean just in case, the Yuzhu incident fails, I am willing to guarantee my life and property. I just ask you to spare his life." Lao Shisan took the initiative to kneel at Lao Si's feet.
The fourth child sighed, spread his hands, and asked the thirteenth child: "He has tens of thousands of troops and can influence the future situation. How can I spare him?"
After hearing this, Old Thirteen's heart brightened, and Old Four's fear of Yuzhu had penetrated deep into his bones.
Lao Si secretly attacked Yuzhu many times, but without exception, all failed.
The fundamental problem is that Yuzhu's position as a solitary minister is extremely stable!
Whenever Yuzhu showed any ambition to form a faction, the old emperor would not be able to tolerate him to this day.
There are also high-ranking officials of second rank and above in the Jade Party clique, such as Tang Bing, Seleng'e and Acton. However, none of them hold the real power of the imperial court.
The real power of the Manchurian bannermen is to either manage the flag, control the Eight Banners and the Green Camp military power, or join the cabinet and have a certain degree of decision-making power.
Yuzhu's people didn't do any of these things, so the old emperor could tolerate it.
If Lao Si wants to defeat Yuzhu, the most important thing is to make the old emperor no longer trust him.
However, Yuzhu is too cunning and slippery, making it difficult for people to grasp the big clues.
As for Yuzhu's habit of robbing Han ministers' wives, Lao Si never thought of instructing his own people to impeach him.
The reason is very simple. Without the acquiescence of the old emperor, Yuzhu An would dare to rob two girls in a row?
In addition, some people have said that as Xiao Fu Peng grows up, his features and eyes look more and more like Cao Yi.
Alas, the water inside is so deep that I can’t even think about going down!
"Thirteenth brother, you'd better stop looking for Yuzhu. Keep an eye on Longkodo for me first. He's been a little unstable lately, and he actually contacted Nian Gengyao secretly." The fourth child sighed and told the tenth child.
three.
Old Thirteen couldn't help but take a breath. He was the only one who knew best about Old Four's plan to seize the throne. Even Si Fujin didn't know anything about it.
If the fourth child wants to seize the throne, he must rely on Longkodo internally and Nian Gengyao externally. If these two people get involved, what's the point?
However, Lao Shisan vaguely noticed that Lao Si did not particularly care about Longkodo and Nian Gengyao getting closer to each other.
The only person Lao Si really cares about is Yuzhu.
"Well, I will definitely send more manpower to keep an eye on Long Keduo and Nian Gengyao." Lao Shisan suddenly asked Lao Si, "Fourth brother, Yuzhu is a very smart man. If he doesn't support you, is it possible?
You have seen what Khan Amma wants, do you want to support Hongxi?"
The fourth child was stunned by the question on the spot and could not answer for a long time.
To be honest, what the fourth child fears most is that the old emperor will hand over the edict to Yuzhu and order him to support Hongxi on the throne.
In the royal family of the Qing Dynasty, there was always a distinction between concubines and concubines.
Even though the eldest brother Yinti is the emperor's eldest son, the old emperor's real attention has always been his legitimate son Yinreng.
Hong Xi was originally Yin Reng's second son.
However, the older brother in front died before he could reach the end of his life.
In this way, Hongxi is the eldest grandson of the old emperor.
Zhu Chongba of the former Ming Dynasty was good at establishing the emperor's grandson, which led to the change of the state of Sheji. The main reason was that all the generals who had some ability were killed by Zhu with excuses.
After Prince Zhu Biao died of illness, Lao Zhucai went on a killing spree because he was worried that his military meritorious service would disobey his young master.
However, Hongxi's situation is completely different.
Although Yuzhu always keeps a low profile, even the hated Lao Shi has publicly admitted that Yuzhu can indeed win the battle!
Once Yuzhu supports Hongxi and ascends the throne, the risk of rebellion will be astonishingly high!
Now, in addition to Yuzhu, the problem before Lao Si is also a bigger difficulty.
As long as he is a qualified emperor, he cannot tolerate a certain minister unscrupulously manipulating the affairs of the court.
Who will the old emperor arrange to contain Yuzhu in the future?
This is indeed a serious problem!
As soon as Yuzhu returned home, he saw the wet nurse holding Jiu Shi and standing on the roadside waiting for him.
Seeing Yuzhu looking towards her, the wet nurse hurriedly knelt down and saluted, and whispered: "Master, the third master insists on waiting for you to come back. This servant dare not..."
Before the wet nurse could finish her words, Yuzhu had already stretched out her hands and said with a smile: "Come on, big brother, give me a hug."
Jiushi got into Yuzhu's arms with a smile, held her fingers in her mouth, and said affectionately: "Brother, you are so kind."
Yuzhu smiled slightly and said, "As long as you are patient, observant, and feel the hair, you won't be able to coax a child well."
"Third brother, what do you want to eat today?" Yuzhu hugged Jiushi and walked slowly towards the main courtyard.
Jiushi raised his little face and said seriously: "Brother, I want to eat kebabs, grilled fish, and grilled sweet potatoes..." and made a long list.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the Qing Dynasty, sweet potatoes were sweet potatoes.
Sweet potatoes are delicious if you eat them once in a while. If you eat sweet potatoes every day, you will not only suffer from abdominal bloating, but you will also easily get tired of them, resulting in a poor appetite.
When Yuzhu was suppressing bandits in western Hunan, local farmers mostly paid the imperial grain national tax for the rice they grew.
When the staple food is not enough, sweet potatoes and wild vegetables can only be used to make up for it.
Farmers in western Hunan, in most cases, eat thin food when farming is slack and dry food when farming is busy.
The porridge here refers to sweet potatoes, wild vegetables and rice, cooked together, and served with pickled pickles.
However, the planting area of sweet potatoes has always been far less than that of rice and wheat.
For southerners, rice has always been the staple food, while for northerners, wheat is the main food. The planting area of sweet potatoes is almost negligible.
Why?
The court's land tax and the landlord's land rent were levied on rice in the south and wheat in the north. The government and landlords did not collect sweet potatoes at all.
Between the government and the landowners, who dares to waste resources by planting too many crops that are not harvested?
Since Li Si'er moved away with Eighty-Nine, the family atmosphere in Tongfu Hutong has become stronger and stronger.
Yuzhu knew it better than anyone else.
In the more than ten years before Yuzhu failed to win the first prize, Li Si'er, Yuyan and Bajiu were able to live a prosperous life with him, and Longkodo's partial help played a decisive role.
Where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather.
As a result, Yuzhu's eldest brother, Yue Xing'a, the eldest son of the third bedroom of the old Tong family, was expelled from the family.
As long as the biological father in power is biased, any distinction between concubine and concubine will become nonsense!
Having learned from the past, Yuzhu was particularly affectionate towards Jiushi, his half-brother.
No matter what Yuzhu thinks in his heart, his love for Jiu Shi, on the surface, must definitely exceed that of his biological brother, Bao Jiu.
Seeing Yuzhu coming back with his brother-in-law in his arms, Xiuyun greeted him at the door. He quickly knelt down to salute and said with a smile: "Please, sir, third uncle."
In the Qing Dynasty, the issue of address was by no means a trivial matter.
After Yue Xing'a was kicked out of the house, Yuzhu became the eldest master of the third room of the Tong family. At eighty-nine, he was the second master, and at ninety, he was the third master.
Regarding Yuzhu's younger brothers, Xiuyun always calls them uncle. According to the ranking, eighty-nine is the second uncle and ninety is the third uncle.
What must be knocked on the blackboard is that uncle refers specifically to the husband's younger brother, and uncle is the father's younger brother.
For example, in "Water Margin", when Pan Jinlian seduced Wu Song for the first time, she said: "Uncle, stand still and let me measure the size."
Wu Dalang had only one biological brother, Wu Song. At this time, Pan Jinlian called Wu Song uncle, not second uncle, and it was definitely impossible to call him wrong.
After entering the house, Yuzhu put Jiushi on the ground.
Jiu Shi's nanny had sharp eyes and immediately discovered that the front chest of Yuzhu's official uniform was soaked with Jiu Shi's saliva.
"Come here, bring those gadgets that the third master likes to play with, and I'll be there for you." Before Yuzhu went to change clothes, he specifically warned people not to be left out in the cold.
Ninety is still a kid of a few years old. He is definitely not sensible, but he can clearly see who is really good to him.
After Yuzhu changed her clothes, she returned to the house and saw that the carpet was filled with various toys that Jiushi loved to play with.
Among the many toys, Jiushi's favorite is the building blocks specially made by the building office of Yuzhurang Palace.
Of course, out of taboo considerations, the buildings built with building blocks are all in the form of Western churches.
There is no way, if the shape of the building blocks built by Jiushi turns out to be the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City, then it would be disrespectful to seek death!
Jiu Shi sat on the carpet, concentrating on the game. Even Yu Zhu passed by him without knowing it.
When Yuzhu sat down to drink tea, his eyes inadvertently passed over the ninety-year-old wet nurse.
The wet nurse's surname is Zhang, and her husband, Tong Twenty-two, is not only the birth servant of the old Tong family, but also the confidant and second-in-command around Longkodo.
Note: The family-born servants of the Qing Dynasty were also the servants of the former Ming Dynasty.
I said it a long time ago, and I will repeat it again here.
What I write must reflect the customs, titles, clothing, official system, rank, etiquette, etc. of the early Qing Dynasty.
If you read history books, regardless of the historical flavor, and just focus on the trivial matters of usurpation, this book has no value in writing.
In addition, to be bragging, as long as it is a real person in history, the research on historical data is very solid.
Who can make money by writing and translating historical books such as "Records of the Holy Ancestor", "Records of King Sejong", "General Genealogy of Manchu Clan in Eight Banners"?
Issues of a professional nature have taught me a truth: it is better to speak in silence than to speak louder than words!
