[Qing Dynasty] "Gege" is polite
Chapter 79
Liang Jiugong thought he was indeed a crow's mouth.
Bright yellow.
When he saw the crown prince really appearing in front of his eyes, Liang Jiugong could only go up to him, controlling his gaze not to fall on the soft whip on the crown prince's waist.Right now, he has no interest in being whipped by the prince.
Even if the crown prince should not attack him, it doesn't mean that Liang Jiugong is not worried. A slave is always inferior to a master.
There was a time when the East Palace was reckless, even if the prince at that time threw Liang Jiugong a few whips in front of Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi would just laugh and look at his prince lovingly.
"Liang Jiugong, I just want to see Huang Ama."
Yinfeng said as usual, as if this was a simple meeting.
Liang Jiugong said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is meeting with someone, please invite His Royal Highness to go back." This set of rhetoric was the same as before.
The prince raised his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile, "Meet? With whom?"
Even if he knew who the damned person in the palace was, Yinfeng couldn't reveal anything at this moment, even if they knew each other well, the accusation of spying on the emperor's trace was still unnecessary.
Liang Jiugong smiled, "Long Live Lord is meeting with Mr. Wen, His Royal Highness, Long Live Lord said that he will not see anyone today, so you should go back."
Yinfeng will come in person, and he certainly cannot be sent away at will.His gaze was suddenly dark, and he stared at Liang Jiugong intently, his gaze seemed to burn two holes in Liang Jiugong.
Liang Jiugong took it calmly, in this position, he had to suffer such sight every day.Even if the source of this line of sight is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, no matter how honorable this person's position above ten thousand people is, there is still a long way to go before that honorable position.
"Eunuch Liang."
A cold voice came, and Liang Jiugong looked up at Yinzhen who was gradually approaching on the palace road in surprise.What kind of wind is blowing today, these masters are here in groups?
And it just happened that these few masters who had personal vendettas ran into each other?
Liang Jiugong secretly complained in his heart, feeling that he really didn't read the almanac when he went out today.
Yinzhen met the gazes of Yinreng and Liang Jiugong, and when he approached the corridor, Yinreng said, "The fourth child is also begging to see Huang Ama?"
His mocking tone was really obvious, as if he was waiting for Yinzhen to take his own humiliation.
Yinzhen shook his head calmly, "My brother is just here to deliver something for Concubine De." As his voice fell, a palace man behind him came forward with a cup of soup.
"Huang Ama has been very tired these few days, and Empress Defei is very worried. This is the soup she made specially for Huang Ama, and I asked Eunuch Liang to bring it in." Yinzhen nodded lightly at Liang Jiugong.
Liang Jiugong hesitated for a while, Emperor Kangxi did not forbid this matter, and Fourth Master did not intend to go in.Liang Jiugong thought about Wen Liang who was still in the hall, and motioned for someone to take the soup.
Yinzhen nodded to Yinfeng to say goodbye, and when he was about to take someone away, he was stopped by Yinfeng, "Fourth, we haven't had a good conversation these days, choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, today I will come to the East Palace Have a good talk?"
That gentle smile couldn't see the haze just now.
Yinzhen had no intention of stopping, and soon left with Yinreng.
Liang Jiugong waved his hand to let the soup be sent in, and frowned as he looked at the direction Yinfeng and Yinzhen left. After a while, there seemed to be some dispute between the two of them. His Royal Highness and Prince Yong did not leave, but stood still and spoke. , each other's faces are not very good.
For some reason, looking at these two masters, Liang Jiugong always felt that something was wrong.It seems that because of the appearance of His Royal Highness when he left just now, it really looks very different from before.
Liang Jiugong calmed down, let the master worry about these things.
In the hall, Emperor Kangxi looked at the soup and said with a smile, "Danggui wolfberry, I don't know whether this soup is for you or for me."
Wen Liang said calmly, "Since it was made by the concubine De, it is naturally for the emperor, so you don't have to worry about it."
Emperor Kangxi glared at him, took a spoon to drink the soup, and said after a while, "Since you have defeated me, you should know what to do next."
"I don't know." Wen Liang said.
Emperor Kangxi looked at him with a strange gaze, and couldn't help but said, "Do you know that you are messing around?"
The warm and cool eyes seemed to be blank for a moment, and then he shook his head calmly, "I have never been in the officialdom, so I don't know what the emperor will do next."
Emperor Kangxi said casually, "Who said I'm going to let you go into officialdom?"
The emperor said cunningly, "Naturally let Wen Liang continue to use his nonsense ability to make this situation even more turbid."
"Whoever should not, just kill it."
"I want to see how many tough bones there are."
……
When Wen Liang came out of Qianqing Palace, he was rarely dizzy, but he didn't expect to see Yinzhen when he came out.
Yin Zhen was standing not far away talking to Yin Reng, their faces were not pretty, but there was no atmosphere that was difficult to resolve, it just looked like they were arguing.However, in front of Qianqing Palace, no matter who they are, they restrain their temper, and no one intends to cause trouble here.
Wen Liang's suspicious eyes fell on Liang Jiugong, Liang Jiugong explained something in a low voice, and Wen Liang quickly understood the matter.
Yinzhen was one step ahead of the prince when he found out that Wen Liang had come out. He didn't know what he said to Yinreng, and before Yinreng could react, he passed Yinreng and walked forward.
Wen Liang nodded lightly at Liang Jiugong, "Please trouble Eunuch Liang to pay attention to Long Live Lord's body these few days."
It was not easy for Emperor Kangxi to concentrate for a long time.Earlier, Wen Liang and Emperor Kangxi never played chess with a competitive mentality, and it was considered a simple matter for each other, but this time it was different, it was a real game.
Even Wen Liang couldn't bear it, let alone Emperor Kangxi.
Liang Jiugong nodded.
Wen Liang walked towards Yinzhen who was waiting at the bottom of the steps, "Master, are you here to visit Lord Long Live?"
Yinzhen glanced into the hall, and said softly, "Huang Ama won't see me waiting at this time." After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Yinfeng, who was not far away with dark eyes, and said, "His Royal Highness, I Wait and go back first."
Yinfeng originally planned to discuss with Yinzhen in the East Palace, but the two had some conflicts with each other before they approached for a long time, so they stopped directly.
Even if he went to the East Palace, it was useless, as the space in front of Qianqing Palace was spacious, even if someone wanted to eavesdrop, he couldn't do it. Liang Jiugong just watched the two masters start talking in front of him.
Fortunately, he couldn't hear a word.
Yinfeng restrained his expression, and said gently, "In this case, I will not stay alone. Don't forget, Mr. Wen, you still owe me one more time."
Yinzhen's breath was cold, "Since Mr. Wen is my minister's staff, his affairs are naturally my minister's affairs. If His Royal Highness has something to say, you can come directly to find my minister."
After Yinzhen finished speaking, he left Qianqing Palace with Wen Liang, and Yinreng's expression became more and more ugly.Liang Jiugong knew that His Highness the Prince's target this time should not be the Qianqing Palace, so he quietly entered the palace before Yinfeng noticed.
Yinfeng stood there for a long while, finally suppressed his anger, and then led the people out of here.
Yinzhen and Wen Liang got into the carriage together, and the scenery of the Qing Palace was left far behind by the carriage.
As soon as Yinzhen got into the car, he looked carefully at Wen Liang's expression, and said helplessly, "Sir, it's rare for him to torment himself like this." Wen Liang was resting with half-closed eyes, but when he heard this, he opened his eyes, and the dark eyeballs He looked at Yinzhen seriously.
Wen Liang knew his own self-cultivation ability, and even Liang Jiugong, who was used to observing words and expressions, might not be able to see the subtle changes.
"Lord Long Live lost." Wen Liang said.
"I can see it." Yinzhen sat solemnly, even though the carriage was swaying, his sitting posture was very straight, "If it weren't for this, sir, he wouldn't look like this now."
Wen Liang was a little surprised, he didn't think there was anything wrong with him.
Yinzhen seemed to have no intention of explaining, and quickly diverted Wen Liang's attention, "Huang Ama's move should pave the way for Wen Liang."
Wen Liang said indifferently, "It's not a good thing."
Yinzhen shook his head helplessly, "It's just for Mr., if not, who can say exactly what will happen in the future?"
Wen Liang said nothing.
Yinzhen said again, "Your status is different. If the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, judging from the few elder brothers who may be considered by Huang Ama, none of them can protect you."
Wen Liang frowned, "Someone is related to the Shang family, and that's not the case." It is true that the Shang family favored the princess, but the obedience of the princess has not changed. At most, it can be regarded as a side branch of the royal family and has nothing to do with the royal family. .
"Right now, Huang Ama's too much attention to her husband is enough to obliterate it." Yin Zhen knew more about these people's thoughts than Wen Liang.The existence of Wen Liang was a thorn in some people's hearts. The more Emperor Kangxi loved him, the more he hated Wen Liang in their hearts.
Wen Liang is an outsider, but not an outsider. If there is no more power, it is indeed unknown what will happen in the future.
"So what if there is more power?" A warm and cool voice sounded in the increasingly dim compartment, without any fluctuation, "Is it the emperor's land in the whole world, no matter who becomes the emperor, it is the Lord Long Live who left something for a certain person." There are too many ways to make a certain accidental sudden death by playing the gold medal for avoiding death."
Yinzhen doesn't like the way Wen Liang describes himself, that kind of indifference... is almost an insult.However, what Wen Liang said was true, if someone else came to the throne, even Yinzhen would be a mermaid.
Yinzhen's fingertips tapped impatiently on his knees, the owner of the fingers seemed to be in some kind of trance, they couldn't see each other's appearance in the dimly lit carriage, but Wen Liang could hear that at such a short distance Another knocking sound.
Wen Liang quietly closed his eyes and walked through the entire drive. It was not until the slight movement of the carriage stopped that Yinzhen seemed to recover from his contemplation.
His deep eyes looked at Wen Liang's direction accurately, and at the moment Wen Liang took the initiative to dodge and ask Yinzhen to get off the car, those low words brushed Wen Liang's ears, and stayed clearly by his ears.
"I won't let sir have trouble."
After Wen Liang got off the carriage, looking at Yinzhen's calm expression in front of him, he only heard him say, "Sir, why don't you rest earlier, and we can discuss this matter tomorrow."
Wen Liang pursed his lips, and parted ways with Yinzhen at the door, he followed the path back to his small courtyard, the courtyard was brightly lit, Tongque had already cleaned up the mess in the morning.
Seeing that her husband finally came back, Tongque breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard a warm voice, "Tongque, let the small kitchen boil some hot water."
Tongque said softly, "The small kitchen is always ready, sir, do you want to take a bath?"
Wen Liang nodded slowly, his movements a little slow.
Tongque immediately asked someone to take care of the matter. After a while, Wen Liang comfortably soaked in the large wooden barrel, and rested in the warm water with his eyes closed.
Wen Liang came out after two quarters of an hour of soaking, he was a little more awake than before, and he didn't intend to eat at all.However, Tongque had already had someone prepare meals, and Wen Liang frowned and sat down, at least he did not eat dinner.
Less than half an hour later, Wen Liang quietly fell asleep.
He didn't like people watching the night, the house was quiet and there was no movement at all, only the closed window was still faintly beaten by the wind and snow, and there were some noises from time to time.The snow in the courtyard is getting bigger and bigger, falling from the sky, it seems that there is only this white falling from the sky in the world, covering the beautiful mountains and rivers.
In this snow scene, Yinzhen stood on the porch and looked up at the endless snow, and reached out to catch a few snow grains, "How is it, sir?"
A hoarse voice came, "I have already fallen asleep."
Yinzhen silently put his left hand, which was wet by the melted snow, behind his back, and looked at the scenery outside the house calmly, until Zhang Qilin came back from the outside and brought the news Yinzhen wanted.
In the middle of the night, heavy snow covered the eaves, and no one knew the elegant scenery of the snowy land, only the sound of splashing water could be vaguely heard.
Everything is silent, covering up some voices that people don't want to know.
The snow is white, but in the snow, it is black.
……
Emperor Kangxi was playing with the walnuts in his hand, and after hearing all the news today, except for his sneer when he heard Yinyin and Yinhu colliding, there was no movement at all after that.
"How about the East Palace?"
"I heard that the prince lost his temper." Liang Jiugong replied cautiously.
These words indeed summed up the situation of the prince today, but compared to reality, it has condensed a lot of things.
Emperor Kangxi knew Yinfeng very well, and when he heard the words, he just closed his eyes patiently, and then said, "Remove Yinhu from the position of chief manager of the House of Internal Affairs."
Liang Jiugong just lowered his head and quickly helped Emperor Kangxi draw up the decree.
Emperor Kangxi looked at the imperial decree in front of him, took the jade seal himself after a while, and opened the red clay.
"Two days later, you will personally take people to Yinhu's mansion to announce it." Emperor Kangxi seemed to have planned for a long time, and said after throwing this decree to Liang Jiugong.
After Liang Jiugong wrote down this matter, he watched Emperor Kangxi stand up, "I'm resting."
Liang Jiugong personally sent Emperor Kangxi back to the palace, and he was busy with everything else. When finally Emperor Kangxi really rested and the eunuchs who watched the night were in place, Liang Jiugong felt a down-to-earth sense of panic.
He stood here with a calm expression and listened to the wind tonight, not knowing what was beating in his ears.After a while, Liang Jiugong realized that it was his own heartbeat.
Liang Jiugong has been Emperor Kangxi's personal servant for many years, even though there is still a bead competing with him for the position, but he is always the most convenient chess piece used by Emperor Kangxi, and he is also the servant who knows Emperor Kangxi's deepest thoughts.
Any actions of Emperor Kangxi are what Liang Jiugong needs to speculate on, and the recent actions, as well as the imperial decree in his arms... Liang Jiugong swallowed, feeling a little inexplicable fear.
Once the emperor and the courtiers, even if Liang Jiugong is so powerful now, he doesn't expect any good changes after the change of dynasty.It's just that it's too early.
……
When Wen Liang woke up the next day, it was much earlier than his usual schedule.
He lay on the bed looking at the gloomy appearance in the room, got up slowly, and then changed the clothes hanging on the bedside last night.The floor heating in the house is very comfortable, and I can't feel the cold wind whistling outside at all.
Wen Liang listened to the wind outside, weighed it for a while, and went out as he was now.
When Tongque heard the movement and came out of the house, Wen Liang had already punched in the gallery.It was so windy and snowy outside, Wen Liang was not someone who knew how to adapt and insisted on punching in the courtyard.
Tongque watched quietly by the side until Wen Liang stopped moving, and the inner lining was soaked in sweat, which was very uncomfortable.Tongque handed over the hot handkerchief that had been prepared earlier, and then prepared a change of clothes for Wen Liang.
When Wen Liang came out of the house, porridge and side dishes were prepared outside.
Su Peisheng seemed to be stepping on a spot, and came after Wen Liang finished eating.Wen Liang got up and walked into the house, "Master is awake?"
Su Peisheng didn't say that the prince didn't rest at all last night, but just said with a smile, "Please come with the servant, sir."
outside study.
The warm air in the room spread a little along the open windows, and when the warmth and coolness entered, the falling snow on the cloak melted a little, and Su Peisheng took it away and hung it up.
"Master." The warm and cool gaze briefly stayed on the incense burner in the house for a moment, it was a refreshing spice, the smell was ordinary but the breath was long, Yinzhen rarely used it.
Yinzhen was burying his head in the desk and looking at something, and when Wen Liang came in, he just motioned for him to sit down, and when Yinzhen finally raised his head from the table, it was already a quarter of an hour later.
Yinzhen wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Wen Liang's words, "My lord didn't rest last night."
Yinzhen was startled, and stretched out his hand to touch his eyelids, "Did you see it?"
Wen Liang shook his head, pointed to the censer in the corner, Yinzhen noticed the spice that had been replaced at some point, and said in a low voice, "That idiot Su Peisheng."
The early morning meeting soon ended. Although Yinzhen didn't rest last night, staying up all night didn't affect him too much, but his brows and eyes were a little tired, but he returned to normal after returning home.
"My lord, what did you find?" Wen Liang didn't worry about this kind of thing, Yinzhen is indeed young, once in a while is not a big deal.
Yinzhen nodded, then shook his head in denial, and handed what he had just read to Wen Liang, "That's not the case, look at the news above."
Wen Liang took a few glances at it, the first page was full of people's names, and then some trivial numbers.Wen Liang only read half a page before looking up at Yinzhen, "Are these officials from the household department?"
Yinzhen said, "Most of them are, and the last one is the royal family."
It is said that it is the royal family, but it is actually a side branch, and now it is the position of the county king or the general of the town, and it is not too big or small in the capital.
Then Wen Liang lowered his head and wrote down all the names of the people above, "Several of them here sound like rich and powerful people." After all, some of the descendants are well-known figures in the capital who spend a lot of money.
Yinzhen sneered, "Borrowing money from the national treasury to distribute it is naturally chic."
After reading it, Wen Liang said calmly, "It's very difficult. Except for those who have the ability to repay, a small part has no permanent property at all, and I heard that it has begun to go bankrupt." And the borrowed money is not easy to repay. of.
"If it wasn't so, why would Huang Ama know this and keep turning a blind eye." Yinzhen frowned slightly, feeling a little dissatisfied.
Once this kind of thing opens the gate, it will only roll bigger and bigger like a snowball, until it finally triggers an avalanche.Even if it is temporarily contained, it is much more difficult than choking the throat at the beginning.
Emperor Kangxi's methods in the past two years have become more and more gentle, whether he is dealing with Jiangnan or the capital, he often has a muddled attitude.Except for sensitive matters such as the throne, there is no longer the original passion.The emperor's methods are gentle, which is why the people below dare to make trouble.
Wen Liang said calmly, "It's not difficult to face difficulties." His eyes were drawn to a few sensitive people, and he remembered that these people were either princelings or Baye Party members, plus others who were not Those who are willing to repay are almost half of the court officials.
"What did Huang Ama tell you yesterday?" Yinzhen finally asked this question.
"When you meet a god, you kill a god; when you meet a Buddha, you kill a Buddha."
Yinzhen raised his eyebrows, hearing this sentence from his cool and calm voice, he felt a strange feeling no matter what.
"Long Live Lord has been aware of this matter for a long time, and he has not planned to do anything because of the peace of the government. However, those who reach out are more and more unwilling to restrain themselves. Even this time, no one provoked this matter, and Long Live Lord is also planning to attack." Wen Liang held his hand. Put the list in the table on the table, "Uprooting is naturally not what the emperor wants. Shocking all the officials is the ultimate goal of the emperor."
"It's not enough to use Mr. as a deterrent." Yinzhen said solemnly.
Wen Liang nodded, this was indeed what he was puzzled at the beginning, even if he guessed that Emperor Kangxi planned to involve him in this matter, but Wen Liang has no natural deterrent force, how could he do what Emperor Kangxi wanted.
"No matter who is looking for it," Yinzhen's expression became more condensed after Wen Liang said this, but he didn't interrupt Wen Liang's words, "If anyone disobeys, someone is the one who has the right to order."
Wen Liang holds this power.
Yinzhen said coldly, "Huang Ama intends to use you as an executioner!"
This kind of thought made Yin Zhen frown, Wen Liang's temperament was indifferent, and he had nothing to do with the government, this matter should not have been for him.
Wen Liang shook his head calmly, "That's not the case."
Wen Liang recalled the conversation in Qianqing Palace little by little, and then shook his head lightly, Emperor Kangxi was indeed paving the way.
It is paving the way for warmth and coolness.
He carefully told Yinzhen about the Qianqing Palace, looked at Yinzhen seriously and said, "Long Live Lord was just trying to induce someone before, but now he brings up such thoughts again, I wonder if the emperor has seen something."
Emperor Kangxi didn't want Wen Liang to be the one who actually executed it, and it wasn't a good idea for Wen Liang either.What he wants is for Wen Liang to have this power.He can not use, but not without.
Yinzhen is the one who really does things.
"Huang Ama just saw through certain things." Yinzhen said calmly.
Compared with Wen Liang, Yinzhen knew more about Emperor Kangxi's thoughts. If he knew Yinzhen's thoughts about Wen Liang, he would definitely not have such thoughts at the moment. No matter how much he loved Wen Liang, he would send Wen Liang away.
Wen Liang has been by Yinzhen's side for many years, and Emperor Kangxi thought that the two had a good relationship and were brothers to each other.Wen Liang is willing to ford for Yinzhen, and Yinzhen is also willing to make some concessions for Wen Liang.
That's why today's plan came into being, which not only rectified the majesty of the court, but also shaped the warm and cool status.This is the strategy of killing two birds with one stone.
"Lord Long Live is holding me back." Wen Liang said.
From calling Wen Liang into the palace at the very beginning, to inviting Wen Liang into the game for a game, and spending most of the time today playing chess with Wen Liang, this is just a game.
It begins with warm and cool concern, and ends with Yinzhen's attention.Older gingers are more spicy.
At the beginning of the 47th year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi wrote about Yinzhen's thorough investigation of the treasury bank, and personally granted Wen Liang the imperial saber to assist Yinzhen in his work.
As soon as this incident happened, the earth was shocked immediately, and the courtiers criticized it.
The next day, Emperor Kangxi issued a decree to confer Wenliang officials and titles. At first, he was appointed Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and later he was appointed as the deputy director of the House of Internal Affairs.
Previously, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was originally Yinhu, but was captured by Emperor Kangxi at the end of the 46th year of Kangxi, and was awarded to Yinzhen to take over.Wen Liang's role as the deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is just a stunt in the eyes of outsiders.
The focus is still on the power granted to Wen Liang by Emperor Kangxi. The emperor even issued an order with great interest, and the imperial decree is now on display in Prince Yong's Mansion.
Although Wen Liang concurrently served as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple and the deputy director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, these two positions are equivalent to empty positions.The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple may still need Wen Liang to do his daily work, the deputy chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has no fixed position, and Emperor Kangxi did not specifically specify the part in charge, so there are not many things about Wen Liang.
Emperor Kangxi specially avoided Wen Liang's daily morning court, which also saved Wen Liang from being viewed as a monkey by courtiers.
The 47th year of Kangxi was not a good year. Whether it was for the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs or Yinzhen, it was indeed becoming more and more difficult.Ever since Prince Yong started to be in charge of the affairs of the household department, all civil and military officials have realized Prince Yong's stern and selfless face. Even if it is Prince Yong's own people, if they run into his hands, they will still be tracked down.
This caused the courtiers to complain and wail endlessly.
It was at this time that Wen Liang completely entered the courtier's field of vision.
In the past two years, Emperor Kangxi has loved an ordinary person more and more, and this person happens to be an aide in Prince Yong's mansion. Now the Lord Long Live has given Wen Liang the imperial saber and ordered him to assist Prince Yong in his affairs. This undoubtedly aroused the anger of the courtiers Surprised and dissatisfied.
However, Emperor Kangxi tried his best to reject all opinions on this matter, completely ignored everyone's opinions, and forced the matter to pass. In the 47th year of Kangxi, he received many complaints. Even more, even the other elder brothers expressed their dissatisfaction with this matter intentionally or unintentionally, but Long Live Lord has never expressed his position.
Longkodo and others also expressed their opinions one after another, but after discussing with Emperor Kangxi in detail, this group of people who were valued by Emperor Kangxi calmed down one by one, and did not continue to jump to express their opinions.The people below don't know the reason, and they can't learn a thing or two from them. Naturally, there are still people who are still dissatisfied.
The carriages that Wen Liang came in and out of were all driven by Prince Yong's mansion, and because Prince Yong cared and trusted Wen Liang so much, there were guards on the way to and from, so it was very clear to find out Wen Liang's identity.
There is a sound of horseshoes, Wen Liang just came back from Taichang Temple, Taichang Temple Qing is a kind old man, and he didn't have any spying on Wen Liang's identity, I don't know if it was Emperor Kangxi who made it clear earlier or this person has such a temperament, Wen Liang has been with him for half a year Did not feel any difference.
In the past six months, the courtiers have been both annoyed and angry with Prince Yong, fearful and fearful, no matter what their status is, as long as they are related to this matter, they will never tolerate it, and I don't know how many people have blocked their way of making money.At first, because of Emperor Kangxi's attention to Wen Liang, no one dared to shake him. However, money is touching and desires are endless.After half a year of silence, when Wen Liang's reputation gradually settled down, someone blocked Wen Liang on the official road.
"Sir, someone stopped the carriage." This was Lu Yi's voice.
Emperor Kangxi's methods prevented Wen Liang from leaving Beijing before the matter was over. Wen Liang had been away from Jiangnan for a long time, even if Luyi stayed in Jiangnan to maintain its operation, it would not be of much use. I'm back in Beijing.
Lu Yi went in and out with Wen Liang, usually just waiting in the carriage, kneeling and sitting near the curtain of the carriage.There was a slight movement of the carriage, and Lu Yi opened the curtain slightly to take a look, and immediately frowned.
Not long after leaving Taichang Temple here, there are government offices all around, and the people who stopped the carriage can't be seen, but the official uniforms on their bodies are of the fourth grade. These people are not conspicuous in the capital, and they are not ordinary people.
The driver reined in the reins, and his accompanying guards went to question him. Wen Liang half-closed his eyes, knowing that the opportunity that Emperor Kangxi was waiting for had arrived.
Kangxi would not give the imperial saber for no reason, nor would it be possible for Wen Liang to have the power to kill first and play later for no reason, but it just fell on today's incident.
Wen Liang listened to the increasingly serious quarrel outside the carriage and the movement of pushing and shoving, and stretched out his hand to open the curtain of the carriage. As expected, there were quite a lot of people around the carriage.
There are three floors inside and three floors outside, which is really lively.No matter which side it is, it must be waiting to see the jokes in Prince Yong's Mansion today.
Prince Yong urged the treasury to pay back the treasury and forced the officials to stop the carriage of the palace and cry. If some officials hanged themselves, it would be a wonderful thing.
Wen Liang said calmly, "Is your identity confirmed?"
"Liu Yuanzhong owed 3 taels of silver to the treasury of the Ministry of Punishment, returned 3000 taels, and owed 7000 taels of silver." Lu Yi's voice was crisp and clear, without any concealment, suppressing the noise outside with an inexplicable charm The sound was heard clearly by most of the people around.
Liu Yuanzhong, who was supported and stood in front of the carriage, suddenly turned pale, and his already pale face became even more ugly.It's really embarrassing to feel this fig leaf being torn off in an instant.
Wen Liang held the saber that was placed horizontally on his knees in his hand. Ever since Emperor Kangxi bestowed on Wen Liang this royal saber, he has been going in and out with Wen Liang every day, without exception.
During this brief silence, Wen Liang stepped out of the carriage and stood on the ground.Clutching the saber tightly behind his back, the Qingjun youth's eyes were indifferent and his face was expressionless.
Liu Yuanzhong half-closed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him. This man was the one they needed to deal with, but he was just a kid, so what if he had the so-called bestowed saber?Long live Lord's methods are weak, forgive this person and dare not kill him, as long as he arouses public anger, it will be considered a success.
Thinking of this, Liu Yuanzhong immediately beat his chest and stomped his feet, describing his difficulties and Prince Yong's urging eloquently.
Among the onlookers, some came intentionally or unintentionally. Most of them were officials. They were disturbed by Liu Yuanzhong's weeping behavior. height.
Liu Yuanzhong was proud of himself, although this action was a show of face, if it could stop Prince Yong's reckless behavior, it would be a great thing for him, not to mention that there are endless benefits waiting for him to enjoy in the future.
The chatter in the ear was getting stronger, as if it was going to drown out the tall young man, but no matter how calm he looked, the situation was hard to turn around at this moment, it depends on how he handles it.
"Liu Yuanzhong."
The frosty voice sounded, immediately attracting everyone's attention, and they all noticed the young man standing with his arms folded.
"I owe 7000 taels of silver to the state treasury, and I can't repay it. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, I am guilty of taking stolen goods. 500 taels of silver, one hundred, three years. If you plead guilty, you can be sent to the government office to wait for exile and execution." .”
As soon as the warm and cold words fell, Liu Yuanzhong hit his head like a heavy hammer, and his ears were buzzing. He broke away from the slave's hand and said sharply, "I have not committed a crime, and you have no right to punish me!"
"It's not one's own stolen goods, but it's just a matter of sitting and talking about it, so it's called the crime of taking stolen goods. A certain one is personally ordered by the Long Live Lord, and has the right to kill first and then play it."
Wen Liang said indifferently.
"Come on."
"exist!"
The guards of Prince Yong's Mansion immediately came out, and the gleaming weapons caused the onlookers to push away in fear.
"Take it away and send it to the government office."
Liu Yuanzhong was gagged and suppressed, and the whole official road was silent for a moment.
Bright yellow.
When he saw the crown prince really appearing in front of his eyes, Liang Jiugong could only go up to him, controlling his gaze not to fall on the soft whip on the crown prince's waist.Right now, he has no interest in being whipped by the prince.
Even if the crown prince should not attack him, it doesn't mean that Liang Jiugong is not worried. A slave is always inferior to a master.
There was a time when the East Palace was reckless, even if the prince at that time threw Liang Jiugong a few whips in front of Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi would just laugh and look at his prince lovingly.
"Liang Jiugong, I just want to see Huang Ama."
Yinfeng said as usual, as if this was a simple meeting.
Liang Jiugong said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is meeting with someone, please invite His Royal Highness to go back." This set of rhetoric was the same as before.
The prince raised his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile, "Meet? With whom?"
Even if he knew who the damned person in the palace was, Yinfeng couldn't reveal anything at this moment, even if they knew each other well, the accusation of spying on the emperor's trace was still unnecessary.
Liang Jiugong smiled, "Long Live Lord is meeting with Mr. Wen, His Royal Highness, Long Live Lord said that he will not see anyone today, so you should go back."
Yinfeng will come in person, and he certainly cannot be sent away at will.His gaze was suddenly dark, and he stared at Liang Jiugong intently, his gaze seemed to burn two holes in Liang Jiugong.
Liang Jiugong took it calmly, in this position, he had to suffer such sight every day.Even if the source of this line of sight is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, no matter how honorable this person's position above ten thousand people is, there is still a long way to go before that honorable position.
"Eunuch Liang."
A cold voice came, and Liang Jiugong looked up at Yinzhen who was gradually approaching on the palace road in surprise.What kind of wind is blowing today, these masters are here in groups?
And it just happened that these few masters who had personal vendettas ran into each other?
Liang Jiugong secretly complained in his heart, feeling that he really didn't read the almanac when he went out today.
Yinzhen met the gazes of Yinreng and Liang Jiugong, and when he approached the corridor, Yinreng said, "The fourth child is also begging to see Huang Ama?"
His mocking tone was really obvious, as if he was waiting for Yinzhen to take his own humiliation.
Yinzhen shook his head calmly, "My brother is just here to deliver something for Concubine De." As his voice fell, a palace man behind him came forward with a cup of soup.
"Huang Ama has been very tired these few days, and Empress Defei is very worried. This is the soup she made specially for Huang Ama, and I asked Eunuch Liang to bring it in." Yinzhen nodded lightly at Liang Jiugong.
Liang Jiugong hesitated for a while, Emperor Kangxi did not forbid this matter, and Fourth Master did not intend to go in.Liang Jiugong thought about Wen Liang who was still in the hall, and motioned for someone to take the soup.
Yinzhen nodded to Yinfeng to say goodbye, and when he was about to take someone away, he was stopped by Yinfeng, "Fourth, we haven't had a good conversation these days, choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, today I will come to the East Palace Have a good talk?"
That gentle smile couldn't see the haze just now.
Yinzhen had no intention of stopping, and soon left with Yinreng.
Liang Jiugong waved his hand to let the soup be sent in, and frowned as he looked at the direction Yinfeng and Yinzhen left. After a while, there seemed to be some dispute between the two of them. His Royal Highness and Prince Yong did not leave, but stood still and spoke. , each other's faces are not very good.
For some reason, looking at these two masters, Liang Jiugong always felt that something was wrong.It seems that because of the appearance of His Royal Highness when he left just now, it really looks very different from before.
Liang Jiugong calmed down, let the master worry about these things.
In the hall, Emperor Kangxi looked at the soup and said with a smile, "Danggui wolfberry, I don't know whether this soup is for you or for me."
Wen Liang said calmly, "Since it was made by the concubine De, it is naturally for the emperor, so you don't have to worry about it."
Emperor Kangxi glared at him, took a spoon to drink the soup, and said after a while, "Since you have defeated me, you should know what to do next."
"I don't know." Wen Liang said.
Emperor Kangxi looked at him with a strange gaze, and couldn't help but said, "Do you know that you are messing around?"
The warm and cool eyes seemed to be blank for a moment, and then he shook his head calmly, "I have never been in the officialdom, so I don't know what the emperor will do next."
Emperor Kangxi said casually, "Who said I'm going to let you go into officialdom?"
The emperor said cunningly, "Naturally let Wen Liang continue to use his nonsense ability to make this situation even more turbid."
"Whoever should not, just kill it."
"I want to see how many tough bones there are."
……
When Wen Liang came out of Qianqing Palace, he was rarely dizzy, but he didn't expect to see Yinzhen when he came out.
Yin Zhen was standing not far away talking to Yin Reng, their faces were not pretty, but there was no atmosphere that was difficult to resolve, it just looked like they were arguing.However, in front of Qianqing Palace, no matter who they are, they restrain their temper, and no one intends to cause trouble here.
Wen Liang's suspicious eyes fell on Liang Jiugong, Liang Jiugong explained something in a low voice, and Wen Liang quickly understood the matter.
Yinzhen was one step ahead of the prince when he found out that Wen Liang had come out. He didn't know what he said to Yinreng, and before Yinreng could react, he passed Yinreng and walked forward.
Wen Liang nodded lightly at Liang Jiugong, "Please trouble Eunuch Liang to pay attention to Long Live Lord's body these few days."
It was not easy for Emperor Kangxi to concentrate for a long time.Earlier, Wen Liang and Emperor Kangxi never played chess with a competitive mentality, and it was considered a simple matter for each other, but this time it was different, it was a real game.
Even Wen Liang couldn't bear it, let alone Emperor Kangxi.
Liang Jiugong nodded.
Wen Liang walked towards Yinzhen who was waiting at the bottom of the steps, "Master, are you here to visit Lord Long Live?"
Yinzhen glanced into the hall, and said softly, "Huang Ama won't see me waiting at this time." After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Yinfeng, who was not far away with dark eyes, and said, "His Royal Highness, I Wait and go back first."
Yinfeng originally planned to discuss with Yinzhen in the East Palace, but the two had some conflicts with each other before they approached for a long time, so they stopped directly.
Even if he went to the East Palace, it was useless, as the space in front of Qianqing Palace was spacious, even if someone wanted to eavesdrop, he couldn't do it. Liang Jiugong just watched the two masters start talking in front of him.
Fortunately, he couldn't hear a word.
Yinfeng restrained his expression, and said gently, "In this case, I will not stay alone. Don't forget, Mr. Wen, you still owe me one more time."
Yinzhen's breath was cold, "Since Mr. Wen is my minister's staff, his affairs are naturally my minister's affairs. If His Royal Highness has something to say, you can come directly to find my minister."
After Yinzhen finished speaking, he left Qianqing Palace with Wen Liang, and Yinreng's expression became more and more ugly.Liang Jiugong knew that His Highness the Prince's target this time should not be the Qianqing Palace, so he quietly entered the palace before Yinfeng noticed.
Yinfeng stood there for a long while, finally suppressed his anger, and then led the people out of here.
Yinzhen and Wen Liang got into the carriage together, and the scenery of the Qing Palace was left far behind by the carriage.
As soon as Yinzhen got into the car, he looked carefully at Wen Liang's expression, and said helplessly, "Sir, it's rare for him to torment himself like this." Wen Liang was resting with half-closed eyes, but when he heard this, he opened his eyes, and the dark eyeballs He looked at Yinzhen seriously.
Wen Liang knew his own self-cultivation ability, and even Liang Jiugong, who was used to observing words and expressions, might not be able to see the subtle changes.
"Lord Long Live lost." Wen Liang said.
"I can see it." Yinzhen sat solemnly, even though the carriage was swaying, his sitting posture was very straight, "If it weren't for this, sir, he wouldn't look like this now."
Wen Liang was a little surprised, he didn't think there was anything wrong with him.
Yinzhen seemed to have no intention of explaining, and quickly diverted Wen Liang's attention, "Huang Ama's move should pave the way for Wen Liang."
Wen Liang said indifferently, "It's not a good thing."
Yinzhen shook his head helplessly, "It's just for Mr., if not, who can say exactly what will happen in the future?"
Wen Liang said nothing.
Yinzhen said again, "Your status is different. If the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, judging from the few elder brothers who may be considered by Huang Ama, none of them can protect you."
Wen Liang frowned, "Someone is related to the Shang family, and that's not the case." It is true that the Shang family favored the princess, but the obedience of the princess has not changed. At most, it can be regarded as a side branch of the royal family and has nothing to do with the royal family. .
"Right now, Huang Ama's too much attention to her husband is enough to obliterate it." Yin Zhen knew more about these people's thoughts than Wen Liang.The existence of Wen Liang was a thorn in some people's hearts. The more Emperor Kangxi loved him, the more he hated Wen Liang in their hearts.
Wen Liang is an outsider, but not an outsider. If there is no more power, it is indeed unknown what will happen in the future.
"So what if there is more power?" A warm and cool voice sounded in the increasingly dim compartment, without any fluctuation, "Is it the emperor's land in the whole world, no matter who becomes the emperor, it is the Lord Long Live who left something for a certain person." There are too many ways to make a certain accidental sudden death by playing the gold medal for avoiding death."
Yinzhen doesn't like the way Wen Liang describes himself, that kind of indifference... is almost an insult.However, what Wen Liang said was true, if someone else came to the throne, even Yinzhen would be a mermaid.
Yinzhen's fingertips tapped impatiently on his knees, the owner of the fingers seemed to be in some kind of trance, they couldn't see each other's appearance in the dimly lit carriage, but Wen Liang could hear that at such a short distance Another knocking sound.
Wen Liang quietly closed his eyes and walked through the entire drive. It was not until the slight movement of the carriage stopped that Yinzhen seemed to recover from his contemplation.
His deep eyes looked at Wen Liang's direction accurately, and at the moment Wen Liang took the initiative to dodge and ask Yinzhen to get off the car, those low words brushed Wen Liang's ears, and stayed clearly by his ears.
"I won't let sir have trouble."
After Wen Liang got off the carriage, looking at Yinzhen's calm expression in front of him, he only heard him say, "Sir, why don't you rest earlier, and we can discuss this matter tomorrow."
Wen Liang pursed his lips, and parted ways with Yinzhen at the door, he followed the path back to his small courtyard, the courtyard was brightly lit, Tongque had already cleaned up the mess in the morning.
Seeing that her husband finally came back, Tongque breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard a warm voice, "Tongque, let the small kitchen boil some hot water."
Tongque said softly, "The small kitchen is always ready, sir, do you want to take a bath?"
Wen Liang nodded slowly, his movements a little slow.
Tongque immediately asked someone to take care of the matter. After a while, Wen Liang comfortably soaked in the large wooden barrel, and rested in the warm water with his eyes closed.
Wen Liang came out after two quarters of an hour of soaking, he was a little more awake than before, and he didn't intend to eat at all.However, Tongque had already had someone prepare meals, and Wen Liang frowned and sat down, at least he did not eat dinner.
Less than half an hour later, Wen Liang quietly fell asleep.
He didn't like people watching the night, the house was quiet and there was no movement at all, only the closed window was still faintly beaten by the wind and snow, and there were some noises from time to time.The snow in the courtyard is getting bigger and bigger, falling from the sky, it seems that there is only this white falling from the sky in the world, covering the beautiful mountains and rivers.
In this snow scene, Yinzhen stood on the porch and looked up at the endless snow, and reached out to catch a few snow grains, "How is it, sir?"
A hoarse voice came, "I have already fallen asleep."
Yinzhen silently put his left hand, which was wet by the melted snow, behind his back, and looked at the scenery outside the house calmly, until Zhang Qilin came back from the outside and brought the news Yinzhen wanted.
In the middle of the night, heavy snow covered the eaves, and no one knew the elegant scenery of the snowy land, only the sound of splashing water could be vaguely heard.
Everything is silent, covering up some voices that people don't want to know.
The snow is white, but in the snow, it is black.
……
Emperor Kangxi was playing with the walnuts in his hand, and after hearing all the news today, except for his sneer when he heard Yinyin and Yinhu colliding, there was no movement at all after that.
"How about the East Palace?"
"I heard that the prince lost his temper." Liang Jiugong replied cautiously.
These words indeed summed up the situation of the prince today, but compared to reality, it has condensed a lot of things.
Emperor Kangxi knew Yinfeng very well, and when he heard the words, he just closed his eyes patiently, and then said, "Remove Yinhu from the position of chief manager of the House of Internal Affairs."
Liang Jiugong just lowered his head and quickly helped Emperor Kangxi draw up the decree.
Emperor Kangxi looked at the imperial decree in front of him, took the jade seal himself after a while, and opened the red clay.
"Two days later, you will personally take people to Yinhu's mansion to announce it." Emperor Kangxi seemed to have planned for a long time, and said after throwing this decree to Liang Jiugong.
After Liang Jiugong wrote down this matter, he watched Emperor Kangxi stand up, "I'm resting."
Liang Jiugong personally sent Emperor Kangxi back to the palace, and he was busy with everything else. When finally Emperor Kangxi really rested and the eunuchs who watched the night were in place, Liang Jiugong felt a down-to-earth sense of panic.
He stood here with a calm expression and listened to the wind tonight, not knowing what was beating in his ears.After a while, Liang Jiugong realized that it was his own heartbeat.
Liang Jiugong has been Emperor Kangxi's personal servant for many years, even though there is still a bead competing with him for the position, but he is always the most convenient chess piece used by Emperor Kangxi, and he is also the servant who knows Emperor Kangxi's deepest thoughts.
Any actions of Emperor Kangxi are what Liang Jiugong needs to speculate on, and the recent actions, as well as the imperial decree in his arms... Liang Jiugong swallowed, feeling a little inexplicable fear.
Once the emperor and the courtiers, even if Liang Jiugong is so powerful now, he doesn't expect any good changes after the change of dynasty.It's just that it's too early.
……
When Wen Liang woke up the next day, it was much earlier than his usual schedule.
He lay on the bed looking at the gloomy appearance in the room, got up slowly, and then changed the clothes hanging on the bedside last night.The floor heating in the house is very comfortable, and I can't feel the cold wind whistling outside at all.
Wen Liang listened to the wind outside, weighed it for a while, and went out as he was now.
When Tongque heard the movement and came out of the house, Wen Liang had already punched in the gallery.It was so windy and snowy outside, Wen Liang was not someone who knew how to adapt and insisted on punching in the courtyard.
Tongque watched quietly by the side until Wen Liang stopped moving, and the inner lining was soaked in sweat, which was very uncomfortable.Tongque handed over the hot handkerchief that had been prepared earlier, and then prepared a change of clothes for Wen Liang.
When Wen Liang came out of the house, porridge and side dishes were prepared outside.
Su Peisheng seemed to be stepping on a spot, and came after Wen Liang finished eating.Wen Liang got up and walked into the house, "Master is awake?"
Su Peisheng didn't say that the prince didn't rest at all last night, but just said with a smile, "Please come with the servant, sir."
outside study.
The warm air in the room spread a little along the open windows, and when the warmth and coolness entered, the falling snow on the cloak melted a little, and Su Peisheng took it away and hung it up.
"Master." The warm and cool gaze briefly stayed on the incense burner in the house for a moment, it was a refreshing spice, the smell was ordinary but the breath was long, Yinzhen rarely used it.
Yinzhen was burying his head in the desk and looking at something, and when Wen Liang came in, he just motioned for him to sit down, and when Yinzhen finally raised his head from the table, it was already a quarter of an hour later.
Yinzhen wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Wen Liang's words, "My lord didn't rest last night."
Yinzhen was startled, and stretched out his hand to touch his eyelids, "Did you see it?"
Wen Liang shook his head, pointed to the censer in the corner, Yinzhen noticed the spice that had been replaced at some point, and said in a low voice, "That idiot Su Peisheng."
The early morning meeting soon ended. Although Yinzhen didn't rest last night, staying up all night didn't affect him too much, but his brows and eyes were a little tired, but he returned to normal after returning home.
"My lord, what did you find?" Wen Liang didn't worry about this kind of thing, Yinzhen is indeed young, once in a while is not a big deal.
Yinzhen nodded, then shook his head in denial, and handed what he had just read to Wen Liang, "That's not the case, look at the news above."
Wen Liang took a few glances at it, the first page was full of people's names, and then some trivial numbers.Wen Liang only read half a page before looking up at Yinzhen, "Are these officials from the household department?"
Yinzhen said, "Most of them are, and the last one is the royal family."
It is said that it is the royal family, but it is actually a side branch, and now it is the position of the county king or the general of the town, and it is not too big or small in the capital.
Then Wen Liang lowered his head and wrote down all the names of the people above, "Several of them here sound like rich and powerful people." After all, some of the descendants are well-known figures in the capital who spend a lot of money.
Yinzhen sneered, "Borrowing money from the national treasury to distribute it is naturally chic."
After reading it, Wen Liang said calmly, "It's very difficult. Except for those who have the ability to repay, a small part has no permanent property at all, and I heard that it has begun to go bankrupt." And the borrowed money is not easy to repay. of.
"If it wasn't so, why would Huang Ama know this and keep turning a blind eye." Yinzhen frowned slightly, feeling a little dissatisfied.
Once this kind of thing opens the gate, it will only roll bigger and bigger like a snowball, until it finally triggers an avalanche.Even if it is temporarily contained, it is much more difficult than choking the throat at the beginning.
Emperor Kangxi's methods in the past two years have become more and more gentle, whether he is dealing with Jiangnan or the capital, he often has a muddled attitude.Except for sensitive matters such as the throne, there is no longer the original passion.The emperor's methods are gentle, which is why the people below dare to make trouble.
Wen Liang said calmly, "It's not difficult to face difficulties." His eyes were drawn to a few sensitive people, and he remembered that these people were either princelings or Baye Party members, plus others who were not Those who are willing to repay are almost half of the court officials.
"What did Huang Ama tell you yesterday?" Yinzhen finally asked this question.
"When you meet a god, you kill a god; when you meet a Buddha, you kill a Buddha."
Yinzhen raised his eyebrows, hearing this sentence from his cool and calm voice, he felt a strange feeling no matter what.
"Long Live Lord has been aware of this matter for a long time, and he has not planned to do anything because of the peace of the government. However, those who reach out are more and more unwilling to restrain themselves. Even this time, no one provoked this matter, and Long Live Lord is also planning to attack." Wen Liang held his hand. Put the list in the table on the table, "Uprooting is naturally not what the emperor wants. Shocking all the officials is the ultimate goal of the emperor."
"It's not enough to use Mr. as a deterrent." Yinzhen said solemnly.
Wen Liang nodded, this was indeed what he was puzzled at the beginning, even if he guessed that Emperor Kangxi planned to involve him in this matter, but Wen Liang has no natural deterrent force, how could he do what Emperor Kangxi wanted.
"No matter who is looking for it," Yinzhen's expression became more condensed after Wen Liang said this, but he didn't interrupt Wen Liang's words, "If anyone disobeys, someone is the one who has the right to order."
Wen Liang holds this power.
Yinzhen said coldly, "Huang Ama intends to use you as an executioner!"
This kind of thought made Yin Zhen frown, Wen Liang's temperament was indifferent, and he had nothing to do with the government, this matter should not have been for him.
Wen Liang shook his head calmly, "That's not the case."
Wen Liang recalled the conversation in Qianqing Palace little by little, and then shook his head lightly, Emperor Kangxi was indeed paving the way.
It is paving the way for warmth and coolness.
He carefully told Yinzhen about the Qianqing Palace, looked at Yinzhen seriously and said, "Long Live Lord was just trying to induce someone before, but now he brings up such thoughts again, I wonder if the emperor has seen something."
Emperor Kangxi didn't want Wen Liang to be the one who actually executed it, and it wasn't a good idea for Wen Liang either.What he wants is for Wen Liang to have this power.He can not use, but not without.
Yinzhen is the one who really does things.
"Huang Ama just saw through certain things." Yinzhen said calmly.
Compared with Wen Liang, Yinzhen knew more about Emperor Kangxi's thoughts. If he knew Yinzhen's thoughts about Wen Liang, he would definitely not have such thoughts at the moment. No matter how much he loved Wen Liang, he would send Wen Liang away.
Wen Liang has been by Yinzhen's side for many years, and Emperor Kangxi thought that the two had a good relationship and were brothers to each other.Wen Liang is willing to ford for Yinzhen, and Yinzhen is also willing to make some concessions for Wen Liang.
That's why today's plan came into being, which not only rectified the majesty of the court, but also shaped the warm and cool status.This is the strategy of killing two birds with one stone.
"Lord Long Live is holding me back." Wen Liang said.
From calling Wen Liang into the palace at the very beginning, to inviting Wen Liang into the game for a game, and spending most of the time today playing chess with Wen Liang, this is just a game.
It begins with warm and cool concern, and ends with Yinzhen's attention.Older gingers are more spicy.
At the beginning of the 47th year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi wrote about Yinzhen's thorough investigation of the treasury bank, and personally granted Wen Liang the imperial saber to assist Yinzhen in his work.
As soon as this incident happened, the earth was shocked immediately, and the courtiers criticized it.
The next day, Emperor Kangxi issued a decree to confer Wenliang officials and titles. At first, he was appointed Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and later he was appointed as the deputy director of the House of Internal Affairs.
Previously, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was originally Yinhu, but was captured by Emperor Kangxi at the end of the 46th year of Kangxi, and was awarded to Yinzhen to take over.Wen Liang's role as the deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is just a stunt in the eyes of outsiders.
The focus is still on the power granted to Wen Liang by Emperor Kangxi. The emperor even issued an order with great interest, and the imperial decree is now on display in Prince Yong's Mansion.
Although Wen Liang concurrently served as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple and the deputy director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, these two positions are equivalent to empty positions.The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple may still need Wen Liang to do his daily work, the deputy chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has no fixed position, and Emperor Kangxi did not specifically specify the part in charge, so there are not many things about Wen Liang.
Emperor Kangxi specially avoided Wen Liang's daily morning court, which also saved Wen Liang from being viewed as a monkey by courtiers.
The 47th year of Kangxi was not a good year. Whether it was for the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs or Yinzhen, it was indeed becoming more and more difficult.Ever since Prince Yong started to be in charge of the affairs of the household department, all civil and military officials have realized Prince Yong's stern and selfless face. Even if it is Prince Yong's own people, if they run into his hands, they will still be tracked down.
This caused the courtiers to complain and wail endlessly.
It was at this time that Wen Liang completely entered the courtier's field of vision.
In the past two years, Emperor Kangxi has loved an ordinary person more and more, and this person happens to be an aide in Prince Yong's mansion. Now the Lord Long Live has given Wen Liang the imperial saber and ordered him to assist Prince Yong in his affairs. This undoubtedly aroused the anger of the courtiers Surprised and dissatisfied.
However, Emperor Kangxi tried his best to reject all opinions on this matter, completely ignored everyone's opinions, and forced the matter to pass. In the 47th year of Kangxi, he received many complaints. Even more, even the other elder brothers expressed their dissatisfaction with this matter intentionally or unintentionally, but Long Live Lord has never expressed his position.
Longkodo and others also expressed their opinions one after another, but after discussing with Emperor Kangxi in detail, this group of people who were valued by Emperor Kangxi calmed down one by one, and did not continue to jump to express their opinions.The people below don't know the reason, and they can't learn a thing or two from them. Naturally, there are still people who are still dissatisfied.
The carriages that Wen Liang came in and out of were all driven by Prince Yong's mansion, and because Prince Yong cared and trusted Wen Liang so much, there were guards on the way to and from, so it was very clear to find out Wen Liang's identity.
There is a sound of horseshoes, Wen Liang just came back from Taichang Temple, Taichang Temple Qing is a kind old man, and he didn't have any spying on Wen Liang's identity, I don't know if it was Emperor Kangxi who made it clear earlier or this person has such a temperament, Wen Liang has been with him for half a year Did not feel any difference.
In the past six months, the courtiers have been both annoyed and angry with Prince Yong, fearful and fearful, no matter what their status is, as long as they are related to this matter, they will never tolerate it, and I don't know how many people have blocked their way of making money.At first, because of Emperor Kangxi's attention to Wen Liang, no one dared to shake him. However, money is touching and desires are endless.After half a year of silence, when Wen Liang's reputation gradually settled down, someone blocked Wen Liang on the official road.
"Sir, someone stopped the carriage." This was Lu Yi's voice.
Emperor Kangxi's methods prevented Wen Liang from leaving Beijing before the matter was over. Wen Liang had been away from Jiangnan for a long time, even if Luyi stayed in Jiangnan to maintain its operation, it would not be of much use. I'm back in Beijing.
Lu Yi went in and out with Wen Liang, usually just waiting in the carriage, kneeling and sitting near the curtain of the carriage.There was a slight movement of the carriage, and Lu Yi opened the curtain slightly to take a look, and immediately frowned.
Not long after leaving Taichang Temple here, there are government offices all around, and the people who stopped the carriage can't be seen, but the official uniforms on their bodies are of the fourth grade. These people are not conspicuous in the capital, and they are not ordinary people.
The driver reined in the reins, and his accompanying guards went to question him. Wen Liang half-closed his eyes, knowing that the opportunity that Emperor Kangxi was waiting for had arrived.
Kangxi would not give the imperial saber for no reason, nor would it be possible for Wen Liang to have the power to kill first and play later for no reason, but it just fell on today's incident.
Wen Liang listened to the increasingly serious quarrel outside the carriage and the movement of pushing and shoving, and stretched out his hand to open the curtain of the carriage. As expected, there were quite a lot of people around the carriage.
There are three floors inside and three floors outside, which is really lively.No matter which side it is, it must be waiting to see the jokes in Prince Yong's Mansion today.
Prince Yong urged the treasury to pay back the treasury and forced the officials to stop the carriage of the palace and cry. If some officials hanged themselves, it would be a wonderful thing.
Wen Liang said calmly, "Is your identity confirmed?"
"Liu Yuanzhong owed 3 taels of silver to the treasury of the Ministry of Punishment, returned 3000 taels, and owed 7000 taels of silver." Lu Yi's voice was crisp and clear, without any concealment, suppressing the noise outside with an inexplicable charm The sound was heard clearly by most of the people around.
Liu Yuanzhong, who was supported and stood in front of the carriage, suddenly turned pale, and his already pale face became even more ugly.It's really embarrassing to feel this fig leaf being torn off in an instant.
Wen Liang held the saber that was placed horizontally on his knees in his hand. Ever since Emperor Kangxi bestowed on Wen Liang this royal saber, he has been going in and out with Wen Liang every day, without exception.
During this brief silence, Wen Liang stepped out of the carriage and stood on the ground.Clutching the saber tightly behind his back, the Qingjun youth's eyes were indifferent and his face was expressionless.
Liu Yuanzhong half-closed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him. This man was the one they needed to deal with, but he was just a kid, so what if he had the so-called bestowed saber?Long live Lord's methods are weak, forgive this person and dare not kill him, as long as he arouses public anger, it will be considered a success.
Thinking of this, Liu Yuanzhong immediately beat his chest and stomped his feet, describing his difficulties and Prince Yong's urging eloquently.
Among the onlookers, some came intentionally or unintentionally. Most of them were officials. They were disturbed by Liu Yuanzhong's weeping behavior. height.
Liu Yuanzhong was proud of himself, although this action was a show of face, if it could stop Prince Yong's reckless behavior, it would be a great thing for him, not to mention that there are endless benefits waiting for him to enjoy in the future.
The chatter in the ear was getting stronger, as if it was going to drown out the tall young man, but no matter how calm he looked, the situation was hard to turn around at this moment, it depends on how he handles it.
"Liu Yuanzhong."
The frosty voice sounded, immediately attracting everyone's attention, and they all noticed the young man standing with his arms folded.
"I owe 7000 taels of silver to the state treasury, and I can't repay it. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, I am guilty of taking stolen goods. 500 taels of silver, one hundred, three years. If you plead guilty, you can be sent to the government office to wait for exile and execution." .”
As soon as the warm and cold words fell, Liu Yuanzhong hit his head like a heavy hammer, and his ears were buzzing. He broke away from the slave's hand and said sharply, "I have not committed a crime, and you have no right to punish me!"
"It's not one's own stolen goods, but it's just a matter of sitting and talking about it, so it's called the crime of taking stolen goods. A certain one is personally ordered by the Long Live Lord, and has the right to kill first and then play it."
Wen Liang said indifferently.
"Come on."
"exist!"
The guards of Prince Yong's Mansion immediately came out, and the gleaming weapons caused the onlookers to push away in fear.
"Take it away and send it to the government office."
Liu Yuanzhong was gagged and suppressed, and the whole official road was silent for a moment.
