lied to Kangxi

Chapter 850

Chapter 850 Tat for Tat

The wine table culture is actually an extension of the official standard tradition.

The essence of the official standard is that whoever is a high official has the final say.

The three princes in the West Flower Hall, even if they add one piece, are far inferior to Yu Zhu's status in the old emperor's heart.

In the era of imperial power, staying in power with his eyes closed, and who to hand over the country and the country, have always been the two major challenges that the old emperor faced.

Yu Zhu, who was sitting next to the door, turned against customers, and became the object of everyone's pursuit logically.

The old sixteen held up the wine cup, approached Yuzhu, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhu, I would like to toast you."

Yuzhu got up quickly, picked up the wine cup, and lightly clinked glasses with Old Sixteen.

"Brother Sixteen, you have to pay close attention to the manufacturing office. There have been several incidents recently." Yuzhu casually reminded Old Sixteen.

The old sixteen is good at mathematics, good at rhythm, and often studies mathematical problems with the old emperor.

As the saying goes, if you are close to the water, you get the moon first, and the old emperor was happy to be served, so he ordered the old sixteen to act as the management minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The old sixteen sighed heavily, and explained: "Several old internal affairs officials from the construction office have joined forces to make a fortune. I really can't stand it anymore, brother. It's just a few gentle reminders. Who I thought, those bastards of them really dare to trip me up in secret."

The water in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in a word, is unfathomable.

Even the mighty Yuzhu didn't dare to intervene randomly.

To be honest, the Ministry of Internal Affairs' job is far worse than that of the Ministry of Household Affairs in terms of degree of difficulty.

However, the entanglement of people in the House of Internal Affairs is intricate and deeply rooted.

Not to mention the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, even the handymen who wash the vegetables all entered the palace by relying on hard connections.

Yu Zhu, who holds several important positions, is indeed powerful.

However, even if he wants to drive a little Baitanga back home, Yuzhu still has to find out the details and backing, and then find a suitable opportunity to do it.

As the saying goes, pull out a radish and bring out the mud, and one pull will move the whole body.

The objective fact in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is that even the most infamous clerk can always find a way to get involved with a certain empress through a network of connections.

Yuzhu has only one attitude towards the big greedy people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs: I don't bother to care about how much you are greedy.However, if the serious errands ordered by Lao Tzu go wrong, even if you are a relative of Concubine De, you will be kicked out if you should be kicked out, beaten if you should be beaten, and killed if you should be killed.

Facts have proved that the strategy of dealing with things and not people is very effective.

Because, Yuzhu's standing is extremely upright, he never puts private individuals in the House of Internal Affairs.

In this way, even if everyone has an opinion, they can only hold their noses and admit it.

"They're too arrogant!" Yuzhu cursed, and then suggested, "What are you afraid of, just report to Khan Ama, peel their skins, constrict their tendons, and tell them to have a memory, so that dogs don't look at them. People are low."

"Oh, let's talk about it." Old Sixteen felt very bitter, if he dared to tell the old emperor, he would offend Concubine Yi.

Yuzhu smiled, noncommittal.

In fact, Yuzhu already knew that the old sixteenth was actually the secret son of the old fourbu in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

On the night of Changchun Garden in history, after the fourth son proclaimed himself emperor in front of the coffin, there were rumors in the capital that the old emperor was actually poisoned to death by the fourth son with ginseng soup.

Regardless of the truth or falsehood of the rumors, Yuzhu has reason to believe that, in addition to Longkodoti soldiers encircling the garden, the old sixteen lurking in the Ministry of Internal Affairs must have played a significant role.

With the mean and ungrateful temperament of the fourth child, if the sixteenth child hadn't made great efforts, how could it be possible for the big pie of Prince He Shuozhuang to hit him on the head?

In many cases, without any emotional color, directly pushing back from the perspective of the biggest beneficiary is not far from the truth.

At the men's table, everyone was clamoring to overwhelm the jade pillar, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

The women's table was much quieter.

Under the strict etiquette, even the women who are the prince Fujin have many taboos in their words and deeds.

Guo Luoluo, the sixteenth Fujin, raised his glass high, and said to Yuyan with a smile: "Sister-in-law, come, let's drink up this cup."

Yuzhu has nothing to do with Old Sixteen, but Yuyan and Sixteen Fujin have a serious sister-in-law relationship.

Yuyan's capacity for alcohol is not good, as long as she drinks a little wine, Xiafei's cheeks will turn red.

"Good second sister-in-law, please spare me." Yuyan was so frightened that she waved her hands repeatedly, not daring to accept Shiliu Fujin's trick.

Today's Xihua hall is a typical family banquet, no matter who it is, they are all serious relatives of Yuyan.

When discussing family etiquette in private, there is no need to be prudish. Yuyan simply called Shiliu Fujin the second sister-in-law, and the relationship was drawn a lot closer at once.

Of the three sons born to the secret concubine, the sixteenth son is the second. Isn't the sixteenth Fujin Yuyan's second sister-in-law?

"Hmph, forgive me. You must agree to my conditions. If you agree, it's fine. If you don't agree, it's useless to call the second sister-in-law." Sixteen Fujin knew that Yuyan's alcohol capacity was not good, but deliberately tried to toast, obviously Another purpose.

"What condition?" Before Yuyan could open her mouth, Shiwu Fujin preempted her.

"Sister-in-law Fifteen, why are you in such a hurry? I haven't figured out the conditions yet, I owe you for the time being, and I'll talk about it when I figure it out." The sixteenth Fujin looked down on the fifteenth Fujin, and his words were somewhat embarrassing.

At first glance, the Sixteenth Fujin calling the fifteenth sister-in-law completely complied with the palace rules, and there was nothing wrong with it.

However, I'm afraid of comparisons. After Yuyan called her second sister-in-law, Shiliu Fujin was also called fifteenth sister-in-law.

Back then, when the fifteenth Fujin married the old fifteenth, her own sister was still the crown princess.

At that time, the [-]th Fujin, if you want the wind, you will get the wind, and if you want the rain, you will get the rain. It can be said that the scenery is infinite.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, anyway, the fact is that when the sixteenth Fujin participated in the draft, I heard the fifteenth Fujin deliberately loudly asked the Crown Princess: "What is the rank of a third-rank official?"

The profoundness of the Chinese language is so wonderful that the [-]th Fujin did not contain half a dirty word, but the [-]th Fujin was completely damaged.

Because, according to the official system of the Qing Dynasty, there are nine grades and eighteen grades, and each grade is very clear.

However, the rank of third-rank officials, to put it bluntly, is another way of saying that low-level officials below the fifth rank are rewarded for some reason.

The [-]th Fujin was obviously making use of the topic, accusing Sang and Huai of intentionally belittling the humble background of the [-]th Fujin.

why?

Because, Guo Luoluo Nengte, Ama of the sixteenth Fujin, is related to Concubine Yi.

Concubine Yi's son Lao Jiu, together with Lao Ba, has always wanted to depose Yinreng from the crown prince.

The power struggle outside the palace will inevitably be transmitted into the palace.

According to the general logic of turning his elbows inward and helping his relatives but not helping his relatives, Fifteen Fujin naturally wanted to vent his anger on his sister.

However, the world is really unpredictable.

After the crown princess was abolished twice, the [-]th Fujin changed from a phoenix to a grass chicken almost overnight.

Now, the Sixteenth Fujin who had gained the upper hand would take revenge as a matter of course.
