Chapter 882 2-sided Bet
Chapter 882 Hedging the Bet
In the 40th year of Qianlong, He Zhongtang began to make a fortune.
However, He Zhongtang stayed until the second year of Jiaqing, and after Agui died, he officially became the Chief Minister of Military Aircraft.
It took a total of 23 years.
As the saying goes, if the name is not right, the words will not be right.
Although, He Zhongtang had already grasped the real power of the Military Aircraft Department.
However, Qianlong was also a smart man. He only gave real power and no titles, and kept Agui deliberately on He Zhongtang's head.
On the other hand, Yuzhu, since the 45th year of Kangxi's reign, although there are often small twists and turns in his official career, the overall trend is all the way up.
It took only 15 years for Yu Zhongtang to become the legitimate Prime Minister of Xi Dynasty.
In terms of the speed of promotion, Yu Zhongtang was eight years faster than He Zhongtang.
To be honest, because Yuzhu is the younger generation of the old emperor's mother clan, although the old emperor has suspicions about him from time to time, he still favors him and uses him repeatedly.
The old emperor treated Yuzhu with kindness indeed.
So, as long as the old emperor doesn't close his eyes, Yuzhu will always pretend to be a loyal minister and a pure minister, without any second thoughts.
As for, after the old emperor kicked his legs, then he can't help it.
"Reporting to Zhongtang, Wang Zhongtang came here in person suddenly, please see me outside." Wendner came in and reported a new situation.
In the current cabinet, there are two Wang Zhongtangs, namely Wang Xuling and Wang Jian.
In order not to be confused, which delays important events and hurts people's heads.
Officials in the court, big and small, called the older Wang Xuling Wang Lao Zhongtang, and Wang Jian Wang Zhongtang.
Before following Yuzhu, Wendner was only a ninth-grade pen sticking to the royal family's censor's yamen.
In just over ten years, Wendner also rose to the sky following the rooster and dog as the jade pillars skyrocketed.
Today's Wendner has been promoted from the third-rank Zhili inspector to the acting cabinet bachelor, and is in charge of the cabinet's classics department.
Cabinet bachelor, from the second grade, for example, the title of minister of the Ministry of Rites.
The Department of Classics and Books to which the cabinet belongs is divided into two departments, the North and the South, and its scope of authority is roughly equivalent to that of the Cabinet Office.
In order to reduce the power of the cabinet, the old emperor deliberately did not stamp the cabinet.
Therefore, the foreign language of the cabinet must be guarded by the classics office.
To put it bluntly, the seal of the cabinet is in Wendner's hands.
Yuzhu never formed a party for personal gain.However, since he is the prime minister of the cabinet, he must hold the seal of the cabinet.
Otherwise, Ma Zhongtang, Wang Zhongtang and others can use printed layman at will, how decent is it?
In the ceremonial supervisor of the former Ming Dynasty, only Eunuch Wei, who had the palm seal, was eligible to be praised as: nine thousand years old.
In his position, seeking his own government, the name is justified!
As soon as Yuzhu sat in the cabinet lobby, Wang Jie came to him, no need to ask, it must have something to do with the deposed prince Yinfeng.
If it was an ordinary first- and second-rank official, Yuzhu was fully qualified to avoid it.
However, Wang Jie is not an ordinary person.
As early as the ninth year of Kangxi, Wang Zhen had already passed the Jinshi examination and selected Shujishi, whose subject name was far before Yuzhu.
That's all, in the 30th year of Kangxi, when Yuzhu was only two years old, Wang Jian had been promoted to a second-rank cabinet bachelor.
In the 51st year of Kangxi, Wang Zhen officially entered the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister, and has been re-elected to this day.
If Yuzhu avoids this kind of experienced old Zhongtang, he will definitely give someone a handle.
By that time, the impeachment papers of the Qing rumor officials will definitely submerge Yu Zhu in the ocean of saliva.
Yuzhu tidied up his clothes a little, walked out of the cabinet lobby quickly, and went down the steps to greet him personally.
Wang Jie stood with his hands behind his back, facing the main entrance of the cabinet lobby, obviously wanting to show off his seniority.
"Oh, senior Zhuan, the younger generation is late to greet you, please forgive me a lot!"
Yuzhu didn't care about Wang Ji's behavior of relying on the old and selling the old at all, and bowed to the ground politely, very respectful.
Because he was inferior to Yuzhu, Yuzhu was simply incompetent for an official position, but respected him as a senior in the imperial examination.
Wang Jie, styled Zaoru, named Zhuan'an.
Yuzhu, the dignified Prime Minister of the Qing Dynasty, politely called him Senior Zhuan, just like Zhang Zhidong was respected as Zhang Xiangshuai, which was very dignified.
"Qingqing, do you know that people don't have long-term worries, but they must have near-term worries?" Wang Jian opened his mouth and pretended to hang up.
Yuzhu almost laughed out loud, Nima, is it interesting to deliberately pretend to be a ghost in front of the true Buddha?
Seeing that the old emperor favored Hongxi, Wang Zhen's mind became active again, and he thought about getting Yinrong out of Xian'an Palace first.
According to Wang Jie's logic, since the old emperor wanted to make Hong Xi the grandson of the emperor, in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family, he should at least release his own father, right?
Wang Jie was able to serve as prime minister for ten years, how could he be a political idiot?
Yuzhu's heart is like a mirror, and Wang Jian's seemingly reckless behavior is actually a red heart, with both hands ready.
Wang Zhen is old, and he really has not many days to go.
The worst ending would be to sacrifice him alone in exchange for Hongxi's favor to the descendants of the royal family after he ascended the throne in the future.
How could such superficial wishful thinking escape Yu Zhu's eyes?
"Senior Zhuan, please take a seat in the inner hall, and while sipping fragrant tea, wouldn't it be good to teach the younger generation slowly?" Yuzhu deliberately avoided answering, but politely invited Wang Jian to come in and serve tea.
Wang Jian was slightly taken aback. He originally thought that Yuzhu might not be able to hold his breath, so he gave him a chance to make use of it.
Who would have thought that Yuzhu was like a ten thousand year old fox, not only his posture was extremely low, but also his speech was particularly pleasant, so there was no fault at all.
In the central hall of the cabinet, the young new prime minister is fighting with the very senior minister, and the subordinates only dare to hide behind the windows and peep quietly.
The dignified prime minister actually uttered the four words of teaching the younger generation a lesson. Wang Jie immediately realized that his original plan might come to naught.
However, Wang Jie was not even afraid of the old emperor, so how could he be afraid of Yuzhu?
So, accompanied by Yuzhu himself, Wang Jie walked in four directions and slowly walked into the cabinet hall.
Wang Jie knew clearly that Yuzhu's signing room was located in the east wing of the cabinet lobby, but he walked towards the west wing.
Yuzhu couldn't help but smiled slightly, and turned her head to wink at Wendner.
Wendner immediately went down to make arrangements.
After Wang Jie sat on the main seat with a big grin, Yuzhu simply stood up to accompany him.
Yuzhu knew in his heart that Wang Ji's visitor was not kind, and he was probably instigated by the fourth child secretly.
Others don't know Wang Jie's old background, how can Yu Zhu not understand?
At this juncture, the more Wang Yu mentioned Yinreng, the more the old emperor hated Yinreng.
According to the normal logic of hating Wu Jiwu, if the old emperor hated Yinfeng, if he got involved with Hongxi who was about to rectify his name, it would be like doing the fourth brother a great favor.
In the last years of Kangxi, although the eighth and fourteenth were having a good time, the only thing Yu Zhu really cared about was the fourth.
The so-called Nine Dragons seized the heir, in fact, those who should be eliminated have already been eliminated, and now it depends on how the fourth child plays chess.
