Chapter 304: Chaos

Cao Yong was not interested in the "pie" falling from the sky. This was secretly tried by several princes, and several old ministers were fighting over and over again. Isn't this equivalent to "snatching food from a tiger's mouth"?

Even if the "pie" is "snatched", it may be made of stone, and you will chew your teeth while eating.

In addition, he was a little strange. Although he was raising the flag, he could only say that he was a Manchu Banner. The identity of the Han people has not changed. If he had made up for the gap, he would have made up for the gap of Han officials. Why did Kangxi now point out the gap of the staff and fall on himself? Hasn’t this emperor always been quite guarded against the Han officials? Could it be that his grace to the Cao family really made him lose the Manchu and Han ties in his heart?

No matter how he thought, after the 15th March 2015, after Kangxi's golden words and jade words, Cao Yong appointed the Minister of Taipu Temple.

Don’t think it’s an promotion. This “committee” is a statement that “temporary generation” is implemented in the text. Just because of these two words, Cao Yong’s grade has not been improved.

It can be said that the Heshuo's prince Cao Yong "issued" the Taipu Temple Minister, wearing first-class supplementary clothes; it can also be said that the fourth-class Taoist "issued" the Taipu Temple Minister, still has the original grade.

Regardless of whether Cao Yong was willing or not, he would not be able to stop for a moment after the court had dispersed.

According to the rules, even though he is an official who is a "commissioned" official, he must first go to the Ministry of Personnel to handle some complicated procedures, and then take office with the official documents issued by the Ministry of Personnel. Now, he can't control those.

After Kangxi retired from the court, he thought that these princes and officials were also bored in the room, so he came out of the arrow hall in groups of three or three.

Everyone looked at Cao Yong with different eyes, some smiles, some were gloating, and some were neither yin nor yang.

At the door of the Arrow Hall, although the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince both went to congratulate the Seventh Prince with a smile, their eyes looking at Cao Yong were a little cold.

The Fourth Prince opposed the appointment of Cao Yong just now. Although he did not go for the recommendation of the Seventh Prince, for his grudges, he could not help but come forward to explain to the Seventh Prince.

Cao Yong wanted to take the time to say a few words to his father-in-law and see what advice he had. He would never think of recommending him to take over Taipu Temple for no reason. However, when he was in the hall, the Seventh Prince was surrounded by the princes and he couldn't come forward.

As a result, as soon as he left the Arrow Hall, he was surrounded by the officials of the Taipu Temple before he could wait for the Seventh Prince.

"The elephant horses have been trained in advance, so please go to Nanyuan for acceptance." One of them said.

"The chariots used on Wanshou Festival belong to the carriages in Changchun Garden and Xihuamen two places..." Another person said.

"The Empress Dowager's ceremonial guards and concubines have been arranged at the second palace gate, sir..."

Cao Yong only felt his mind "buzzing" and his head was too big. He just left the court meeting. Why did they come to him? Looking at their top, they were all officials below the fourth rank, and they were all outside the hall just now.

It seemed that someone told them. He looked at everyone and Iduli and an official wearing fourth-grade clothing were looking at him there.

Seeing Cao Yong looking over, Yiduli smiled and called the official forward. The other officials retreated aside and gave up the place to the two adults.

Cao Yong smiled at Yiduli a little apologized. He really didn't want to do this position, but after all, he cut off Yiduli's promotion. If he had a grudge, it was normal for him to have a lot of people now, so it was hard to mention these things. When there was no one, he would still say to him so that he would not lose his friendship because of this lack of official positions. In that case, wouldn't it be difficult to wait until Cao Song and his brothers came to Beijing and were stuck in the middle?

Yidu stood up and greeted Cao Yong, and then introduced the one beside him to Cao Yong: "Mr. Cao, this is the young minister of Taipu Temple, Lord Tang Zhiyu Tang!"

Unlike Yiduli's dignity, Tang Zhiyu was in his forties and looked a little serious and powerful. Although he was not tall and thin, he stood there with his chest up, which made people unable to be looked down upon.

Everyone had seen it, and Cao Yong looked around and saw that the other officials were almost dispersed, only some officials from the Ministry of Rites were also talking about the ceremony in a few days.

However, Lu Jingyuan, Han Qing of Taipu Temple, disappeared, and Cao Yong was a little surprised.

Looking at the anxious appearance of these officials, it seemed that the Taipu Temple Minister wanted the final decision. He had just served for a while and even the procedures for "commissioning" were not complete. As a colleague and senior, Lu Jingyuan left without leaving any advice.

Outside Changchun Garden, Lu Jingyuan had a gloomy face and muttered: "Huangkou kid, Huangkou kid, a slander of the country!"

The old housekeeper who came to serve him on the car didn't know why the master was angry, so he carefully asked someone to bring the carriage frame over and helped Lu Jingyuan get on the car.

Lu Jingyuan got into the carriage, heard someone shouting "Dongting" outside, snorted a few times, closed his eyes, and stopped talking.

Not far away, Cao Yin was standing there, Li Xu and Sun Wen were two, smiling and congratulating.

Cao Yin smiled bitterly and said, "He can't bear such a heavy responsibility, how can this be considered a happy event?"

Sun Wenqi just thought he was humble and said, "What did cousin say about these things? Although Furuo is not in his prime, he has been working for several years. Taking this opportunity to return to the capital, it is good for his future."

Li Xuyi smiled and said, "Mr. Sun is right, Dongting, we have been outside for a lifetime. Now that their cousins ​​have returned to the capital, they can be considered a matter of everyone's worries."

Li Xu's eldest son married the daughter of the Sun family. The three families were considered to be close to each other and became familiar with each other when they were in Jiangnan.

Although Cao Yong was strapped in the garden by the official of Taipu Temple and was not in front of him, Li Xu and Sun Wenqi still asked Cao Yin to treat him to a drink.

Although Cao Yin was not in the mood, it was rare that the three of them had time today, so they were not disappointed and nodded.

Among the three, Sun Wenqi was a little younger and did not take a car but came on horseback. Cao Yin and Li Xu both got on the carriage, and the three of them returned to the city with their accompanying slaves.

Xicheng, Cao Mansion, Lanyuan.

Chu Yu changed his outfit and sent Wu'er to his mother-in-law.

These things were sent to the royal palace there, but they were brought to the Prince Chun County Mansion a few days ago. Because Prince Hongxin came to pick up the small items brought by Shandong the day before yesterday, he looked very fond of them, Chu Yu asked someone to prepare another one yesterday to the Prince Chun County Mansion. Among them, there is also the intention of inquiring about the news about Hongshu and Hongzhuo brothers.

After all, Hongshu asked Chu Yu to help lie to the royal palace. When they came to pick Hongxin that night, they didn't enter the palace, so Chu Yu was naturally a little worried.

Unexpectedly, the next day, I got the news that King Chun Fujin was ill.

Chu Yu didn't know what the two brothers were going to make a fuss. She was worried about Prince Chun and her biological mother Nala. Therefore, she told her mother-in-law that she would go back to the palace today.

Because he went to visit the disease and was unable to take care of Wu'er, Chu Yu sent Wu'er to Li's side.

Li couldn't help but give a few words of advice, and asked Amethyst to take two old trees collected in the mansion and ask Chu Yu to send them to King Chun Fujin. Although the royal mansion does not lack this, it is a dedication after all.

Chu Yu listened carefully, responded in a low voice, and then coaxed Wu'er here, taking Xiyun and Xicai back to Chun's mansion several times.

Last night, Chu Yu had already told someone to tell the royal palace that it was not Hongshu who came to pick him up, but the chief official of the royal palace brought someone to pick him up.

Chu Yu asked, knowing that Hongshu was ordered by the prince to stay in the study to "read" and knowing that his younger brother is a way to go from house to house, but he doesn't know what the reason is.

Although it is said that marriage is a husband, these things about the parents' family cannot be worried about, but after all, they are her closest relatives, so why don't she worry about them?

When Chu Yu entered the second gate of Prince Chun’s Mansion, Nala had already brought people to greet him.

When Chu Yu saw that his mother looked good, she felt relieved with a faint smile. It seemed that Hongshu's "disaster" was not serious, otherwise Zhao Nala's temperament would have been crying red.

Nala took his daughter's hand and said a little angrily: "It's only been a few days ago, why are you thinking about coming back? After all, you have a mother-in-law by your side, and there is no reason to run to your parents' home!"

Chu Yu said: "I heard that Fujin is sick and my daughter is worried. Come back and see her. Mother, Fujin..."

When Nala heard this, she frowned slightly and said to Chu Yu: "The concubine blew the wind yesterday and had some headaches. Hongshu's wife was serving medicine there. When she came back, you can go there again!"

Chu Yu agreed and followed Nara to Nara's courtyard first.

After entering the room, he sent the maid and the mother-in-law. Nala could no longer help but cover her mouth with a veil and chuckled, saying, "Chu Yu, you didn't see how ugly her face was the night before, so she couldn't breathe!"

"Mom, what did Hongshu think of a solution? Why did he get angry with Miss Wu?" Chu Yu was very puzzled.

After hearing this, Nala's face showed a sarcastic look and said, "Isn't it all her good niece who made trouble? I want to stuff Hongshu around. Looking back, what else can she have to do with these?"

Chu Yu was confused, but he also vaguely understood that he had something to do with Qiaofu and his sisters, and asked, "Mom, it's my cousin and the others..."

Nala smiled and said, "Don't call me cousin anymore, you can change your words in the future! The dignified Duke's wife, the general's wife, stay in our mansion with a stern face, and be a concubine for your brother. Let's see how she, the aunt, explains to the Jin couple."

Chu Yu thought of his sister-in-law Borjigiet, who had just entered the house for four months, and didn't know why his mother was happy. Didn't she say last time that Hongshu would have to wait a year before taking a concubine? Why did this be ahead of time?

Seeing Chu Yu confused, Nala smiled and said, "It's not for Hongshu to be a concubine, Hongshu to be a concubine, it's not for her to be her wish! It's for Hongshu to be a concubine, otherwise how could she be so angry that her face turned green? It's not that the Office of the Interior has done it, it's not even a serious side room. I want to give my name and endure it hard!"

Chu Yu was very surprised and didn't know why such a change happened. Qiaofu looked at the sixteenth and seventh years old, two or three years older than Hongzhuo. She had served Borjigit's tea before, so why did she get together with Hongzhuo?

Nala smiled and said, "Hongshu doesn't want to have a rift with his younger brother. I don't know why this happened. I arranged for Qiaofu to go over and be with Hongzhuo."

Can't the family live a family to stop and stop? Now, although my mother is proud, it seems difficult to live on her legitimate mother. Now it's better to be sick. When the disease is cured, who knows whether she will hold more and more hatred. The more hatreds accumulate, the more difficult it will be to resolve the holidays.

For some reason, Chu Yu suddenly remembered Qiaofu. Although his mother didn't say anything else, after these repetitions, the two brothers were able to reconcile as before. What about Qiaofu?

Chu Yu did not take up his mother's words, but said he wanted to go and see Qiaofu.

Nala's face showed disgust and said, "Let's see what she is doing? Anyone who follows the rules will not make such a mess! Now that this end is a matter of one's own consequence."

"Mom, when will Hongzhuo and the others do their business? Is the life decided? When I go back, my daughter prepares a gift for me!" Chu Yu said.

Nala picked the corner of her mouth and smiled, "I have to wait for her to recover from the illness. I'm afraid she won't dare to delay it. If she doesn't wait for her niece to open her face with her big belly, she will definitely be sick again!"

Chu Yu sighed in his heart, took Nala's hand, and advised: "Mom, it's not that my daughter is just helping the concubine. After all, they are all family members and will live in the same mansion in the future. You have been fighting with the concubine for most of your life, and both of them are not happy, so why not take a step back? Even Ama and his younger brothers, I think they are willing to have a family harmony!"

Nala's face gradually stopped smiling, and he looked at Chu Yu and didn't say anything for a long time.

After a while, Nala said quietly: "She has taken you for more than ten years and treats you really well. It is reasonable for you to feel sorry for her." As she said, tears had already come out and she said hatefully: "Is Mom that troublesome? Since she came in, Mom has been respectful everywhere and has never had any rudeness. But because she has no son, she tried every means to step on her mother to the bottom of her feet before she gave up. In the past two years, Balda has been hunched over the past two years, trying to seize the position of prince. If Mom takes a step back and lets her succeed, what should your brothers do? Should I leave the royal palace to Hongjing, be an idle royal family, and move out of the royal palace?

Chu Yu did not speak anymore, and the mother and daughter were silent for a while.

When Borjigit came back, Chu Yu had a few words about the condition of King Chun Fujin and got up and headed for the yard there. Nara originally wanted to follow him, but hesitated for a while, but stopped.

Prince Chun took his forehead and leaned on the kang, looking a little haggard, but he was still energetic. When he saw Chu Yu coming in, a smile came out of his face and said, "Why did you alarm again? You are already the princess who went out, so you don't have such willfulness!"

This is similar to that of the Nala family, and it is full of concern and care.

Chu Yu couldn't help but have red eyes, and went up to sit by the kang, saying, "My mother, you should be more at ease, just adjust your body first."

Prince Chun stretched out his hand and touched Chu Yu's face: "My mother's little girl has grown up and has become a baby girl. When you came to Mother back then, it was no bigger than Tianyou. In this moment, these years have passed. Mother is old!"

Chu Yu shook his head quickly and said, "Look at what my mother said, my mother didn't see her old age, she looks young!"

Prince Chun said with a smile: "I actually talked about children. My mother is still a grandmother, but she is not old yet?" After saying this, she sighed and said: "My mother is confused now. I really don't know which one of you and the fifth princess is born to me. My mother lay down for two days, and she came to see her with the second princess, and then left after dealing with the pretext!"

"Mom, my fifth sister has never liked to talk since she was a child, so don't think too much." Chu Yu comforted.

Prince Chun shook her head and said, "She was complaining about her mother in her heart. She was busy with her mother, leaving Qiaofu, Qiaorong and the other two made her embarrassed..."

*

When Chu Yu returned to the royal palace to visit several concubines, Cao Yong had already started his job as "appointing the Taipu Temple Minister".

He asked Tang Zhiyu to go to the city and check the chariots on the Xihua Gate first. He and Yiduli took several officials from Taipu Temple to Nanyuan Horse Farm.

Although it was noon and everyone was hungry, the job was very important after all. It was a few days before the ceremony, so it was difficult to delay, so no one mentioned the meal.

Changchun Garden is located north of the capital, and Nanyuan Horse Farm is near Fengtai Camp, which is nearly fifty miles apart. Everyone followed the official road and followed the outer city, whipping it up, and it took an hour and a half to reach Nanyuan.

The manager of the horse farm came with people. Everyone knew that there would be a new boss in the past two days, but they didn't expect that it would be such a young official. However, seeing him wearing first-class clothes, no one dared to neglect. He respectfully told the situation of elephant horse training here and asked the adults to go and inspect it.

According to the rules, before this ceremony, the emperor's chariot and elephant horses required for the chariot must start training a hundred days in advance. This time, it is also the seventh day of the first lunar month, and it has been nearly a hundred days since then.
