Nine hundred and eighty-ninth chapter sunset (2)(1/2)
Chapter 989: Sunset (2)
Cao Yong did not go to inquire on purpose, but at noon, he still heard the news that he was not hesitant.
The Holy Lord returned to Changchun Garden. Except for the Sixteenth Prince, the other princes of the escort continued to stay in Nanyuan and participated in the siege.
In the seventy years of Emperor Kangxi, he came to Nanyuan for half a month to entertain the Khalkha kings, and he was extremely honored and favored.
This time he returned to Changchun Garden, he did not cause much fluctuation among the Mongolian princes. Because the great lama was not as good as Kangxi, he only stayed in Nanyuan for two days and returned to Beijing to settle in Huangsi.
Other Manchu and Han ministers who were ordered to join the siege did not look strange after hearing the news. Everyone knew that it was heavy snow yesterday, and the weather became colder after the snow. The emperor's dragon body was noble and could not bear the bitter cold in the camp.
Only Cao Yong was drinking tea when he heard the news.
In amazement, he almost dropped his cup.
Only he knew that Kangxi died at the end of the 61st year, and next year was the first year of Yongzheng.
Cao Yong stood up, his heart stormy.
He paced back and forth, but could only wait.
The second-class uncle and the second-class minister of the Ministry of Revenue are considered to be a high-ranking official in the eyes of foreign officials, and they are nothing in the place where powerful people gather in the capital.
Longkodo has the ability to block the nine gates after Kangxi's death and control the political situation in the Gyeonggi.
Cao Yong never doubted this.
These nine gate admirals are commonly known as, not only to control the guards of the nine gates, but also to control the chief officer of the infantry chief yamen. This infantry chief yamen controls the infantry army of the Manchu and Mongolian Banners, and also to control the three battalions of the north and south police, which are both green camps and horse infantry.
In addition to the inner city, the north of the city where the South City and Changchun Garden are located are all defense places for the police camp.
Longkodo controls one-third of the troops in Gyeonggio.
If there is a minister in the capital who can turn the world upside down, only Longkodo can do it.
In the third year of Yongzheng's ascension to the throne, only those who were Genronkodo dared not reduce his rights at all. In addition to taking care of him, he also used him to intimidate the royal family and the powerful people of the Eight Banners.
Seeing that Longkodo has been extremely fond of Li Sier these days.
And this Li Sier, looking at her past behavior, was definitely not a good person. If she really hated the Cao family because of the Cao family's refusal to marry, it would be a big trouble for the Cao family.
Even Yongzheng had to say "uncle" and make a respectful gesture, which was not something the Cao family could compete with.
Cao Yong straightened his forehead, hoping that Yongzheng would come to power and end the show of fighting for the throne, so that the court would be calmer. Who would have thought that when it was about to come, Li Sier ran out and made the Cao family commit a villain.
But there is no room for maneuver. No matter what the Tong family’s daughter is, the Cao family cannot marry him because of the prosperity of the Tong family.
Isn’t Li Sier the wife of Prince Xiao Xiangjian’s wife? It seems that it’s better to have trouble in the east. In a few days, Chu Yu’s birthday will let her talk about Wanyan.
Although this is suspected of being provoked, it is not a gentleman who can avoid villains.
Cao Yong was thinking about it when he saw someone picking the curtain in. It was the seventeenth prince who was breathing heavily.
Seeing that Cao Yong's expression was gloomy and sunny, the seventeenth prince said, "Furuo, are you invited to give me the silver reward from Lifanyuan?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Yong glanced at the direction of the desk and smiled bitterly: "Not yet. Shangshu Sun has signed his name, but he didn't see the Fourth Master yesterday, so the memorial was not handed over to the imperial court."
Upon hearing this, the seventeenth prince frowned and said, "How is this good? It's time to throw money tomorrow?"
Cao Yong's heart moved and said, "Seventeenth Master, why don't you go down and look for the Fourth Master?"
The seventeenth prince's eyes flashed slightly, then nodded, and said, "It's right, what's the use of being anxious? Let's go find him."
Cao Yong walked to the desk, took the note of the Lifan Court for money, and followed the Seventeenth Prince to leave the account.
The seventeenth prince was very fast, and Cao Yong rushed to keep up with him. His face was gone without the anxiousness he had just now, his brows were frowning, and he felt a little solemn.
This feeling is a bit strange.
Cao Yong's feet were fast and his mind was changing rapidly.
The Seventeenth Prince searched for himself, not like money, but more like finding a remark to find the Fourth Prince.
These princes were afraid that Kangxi's dragon body would be unhappy.
But it was a waste, and the Fourth Prince was not in the tent.
The Seventeenth Prince showed some anxiety and asked the eunuch who was on duty in the tent.
This eunuch is named Chen Fu, who is an eunuch who is needed by Prince Yong's mansion. Although his status in the palace is not as good as that of Su Peisheng, the general manager of the palace, he has often served the Fourth Prince in the past two years.
But he was not old and had no seniority, so he did not have the arrogance of Su Peisheng. He was still respectful to the Seventeenth Prince and Cao Yong: "Seventeenth Master, I am still the same sentence as I said just now, I really don't know. After our master sent the Holy Lord out of Nanyuan, he came back and sat for a while, and then went out after only a moment. Where did you go, the master did not leave any words."
Cao Yong was listening, a little strange.
The Seventeenth Prince has already come to the Fourth Prince’s tent? Then come back now, what’s the point?
"I'm looking for your master in an urgent matter!" The Seventeenth Prince sat down, looked like waiting, and said angrily: "When you see the time of lunch, your master must not stop eating, right?"
Chen Fu didn't dare to say anything, so he had to ask the eunuch to make tea.
He really didn't know where the Fourth Prince went, but as a slave, it was hard for the Seventeenth Prince to wait, a prince. If there was anything delayed quickly, how could he afford to take it?
But he couldn't let people go out to search for things without headless flies. He was a little embarrassed and didn't know what was going on for a while.
Because of the errand, Cao Yong has been to the Fourth Prince's account these days, and is quite familiar with Chen Fu. Seeing that he seemed to be in a dilemma, he explained: "There is a Ministry of Revenue who is involved in the Lifan Court, and he has to wait for the Fourth Master to review it and hand it over to the imperial court. I should wait yesterday, because I was negligent."
After hearing this, Chen Fu was relieved only when the Ministry of Revenue Affairs was in trouble and nodded gratefully to Cao Yong.
At this moment, the seventeenth prince's mood was also stable, and he said to Cao Yong: "I have said hello to Furuo long ago, but Furuo has been delayed until today. Isn't this a worry?"
He had a little complaining tone, and his eyes looked at Cao Yong as usual.
Cao Yong nodded and said yes, but he knew in his heart that the seventeenth prince's words were like Chen Fu's explanation.
It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain.
This eunuch has few physical and healthy temperaments, and is mostly sinister and vicious. The seventeenth prince has been in the palace for a long time, so he knows that he cannot offend them easily.
Chen Fuchang is by the Fourth Prince, but he does not infect the Fourth Prince's stereotype. Instead, he is a person with a clear mind and smart personality.
Seeing that the Seventeenth Prince was pressing down his anger, he looked at the clock standing next to the desk, then personally served tea and delivered it to the Seventeenth Prince. He smiled and said, "Seventeenth Prince, don't worry, it's almost not right (two o'clock in the afternoon). Our grandfather should come back for dinner."
The Seventeenth Prince nodded and said, "Do your master still fast these days?"
Chen Fu nodded and said, "Since we came to Nanyuan, our grandfather has been vegetarian. Our grandfather is merciful and cannot bear to kill. Hunting is another matter of killing. We will sooner or later chant the sutra for an hour."
Cao Yong felt thrust in his heart when he heard this.
The Fourth Prince believes in Buddhism, but he does the work of being angry at Vajra, and there is really no connection between "compassion".
After hearing this, the Seventeenth Prince was quite interesting and said to Cao Yong: "That is, the Fourth Brother, who can be so pious. If it were me, if I didn't eat meat for three days, the Five Insect Temple would be in opposition to the sky..."
As he said this, he heard footsteps outside the tent. The seventeenth prince couldn't help but stop and looked at the door of the tent.
The one who picked up the curtain was the stern prince.
The seventeenth prince and Cao Yong both stood up to greet each other. The fourth prince was slightly stunned when he saw them in the tent, and then his eyes swept across their faces.
"You... look for me..." The Fourth Prince nodded and returned the greeting, returned to the master's seat, sat down, and then asked in a deep voice.
With the Seventeenth Prince here, Cao Yong was not in a hurry to answer.
The seventeenth prince stood up and said, "Fourth brother, it's the matter of rewarding silver after the Khalkha hunting! It will be used tomorrow, and the Ministry of Revenue has not invited the silver yet."
When the fourth prince heard this, he looked at Cao Yong: "You came to look for me yesterday for this?"
Cao Yong stood up and said, "That's right when it comes to the Fourth Master. But the Fourth Master is not here, so Bei Zhi went back. I was supposed to come back to ask the Fourth Master to show me last night, but it was because Bei Zhi was negligent." As he said that, he took out a note and sent it to the Fourth Prince with both hands.
The fourth prince looked at him and took the letter. His originally rigid face turned a little soft in an instant. However, in a flash, he returned to the same appearance, which made Cao Yong suspected that he had read it wrong.
Even if he had read this note yesterday, it would be useless to deliver it to the imperial court this morning.
The emperor's father's dragon body is unhesitant...
Before leaving Nanyuan, the emperor's father saw the sixteenth prince and the imperial physician, and did not summon others.
The Fourth Prince was a little uneasy, and the imperial physicians were accused of taking the throne to Changchun Garden. The Sixteenth Prince just showed his face. In the public eye, there were others there, so it was hard to say anything.
Just as his eyes were facing each other, the Sixteenth Prince's lips moved quickly.
For Wei Wei, Wei, dangerous?
The Fourth Prince was shocked, afraid that he would read it wrong, so he stared at the Sixteenth Prince.
The sixteenth prince was quite concerned and did not dare to do anything else, so he rode his horse and followed the lord out of the yard...
It was not until just now that the Fourth Prince received the news of preparation.
The Holy Lord taught the Imperial Doctor before breakfast, but did not teach breakfast. Then the Holy Lord left the capital at noon, but except for entering the imperial medicine, the imperial tent did not teach lunch.
Even if you are more sick, you always have to eat some food; if you don’t even have a meal, you will not only be seriously sick, but you are afraid you will not be able to get rice and water.
Thinking of this, the Fourth Prince could not sit still, so he directly searched for Longkodo to find out the news.
There was no accurate letter in Longkodo, and the two of them were suspicious and did not dare to move.
Unexpectedly, when he returned to the tent, Cao Yong sent a note.
Since the money was so urgent, it was reasonable for him to go to Changchun Garden to ask for Your Meeting.
The fourth prince raised his eyebrows and just spoke, so he swallowed it back.
Why did he forget that Emperor Ama was the most suspicious when he was old. If the old man was not as serious as he imagined, he would be accused of "spying for the condition" and "unpredictable intentions", wouldn't that be wronged?
To be continued...
