Chapter 111: Big Country and Small Fresh
Front-court service means direct access to more politically relevant content, which is very beneficial for keeping track of the situation. But it's also very dangerous for me as a woman.
Although Yin Zhen now has no defensive psychology because he values and trusts me, but after a long time, the more I know, the more I will inevitably participate, and when he has a heavenly position, he will begin to be suspicious and disgusted because he is worried that Si Chen will give birth to Wu Zhou, and it is even very likely that he will kill. So serving in the front yard is an honor and a crisis, and it is what I want it to be, and it is what I need to worry about.
The winter moon of Kangxi's forty-third year passed in a blink of an eye in the heavy snow and light snow for several days. The charcoal fire in Yinzhen's study is extremely prosperous. Su Peisheng said: "In previous years, the master was extremely economical, and the old slave was always worried that the master would not be able to stand it, but it was useless to persuade him. Now the master knows that Gege's body has been cold and easy to chill before, and he is worried that Gege will not be able to bear it, so he will not save it, which also saves the slave some heart. ”
Speaking of chills, this is an old disease that will sit down in the years, although it has been carefully regulated, but every time the weather changes or when it is humid and cold, there will always be a faint pain in the knee. The menstrual affair also became not very good because of that incident. Although I have seen it with a doctor who specializes in gynecology, the prescription prescribed is similar to the prescription I have been using for recuperation, so I can only find a way to raise it slowly.
Unexpectedly, although Yinzhen was in the front yard, he was concerned about the trivial matters of his body, and these little bits and pieces of silent warmth were inadvertently touched into his heart, which made people unable not to be moved.
Entering the wax moon, we will start preparing for the New Year. Xiao Shunzi has been cured under careful care, but fortunately there is no root cause of the disease, which makes me feel a lot more at ease.
As for the Ulanala clan, they all let the people in the courtyard usually avoid it, and if they really can't avoid it, they will also find a way to be thoughtful and courteous, so that the Ulanala clan will feel comfortable and will not be embarrassed. As for Jiao Xing, she has not been seen since that day, and it is said that the Ulanala clan takes her fetus very seriously, and everything is personally prepared, without pretense to others, and she takes care of her meticulously and even thoroughly. However, those who know the thoughts of the Wulanala clan know that the more Fu Jin values this child so much, the more bleak Jiao Xing's fate will be in the future. Therefore, even Mama Xu, who has always been estranged from Jiao Xing, did not have the slightest complaint to serve this delicate master, so that she could give birth to the child safely.
On the first day of the lunar month, after Yinzhen returned home, his face was very ugly. Su Peisheng followed carefully behind him, and said to me in a deep voice when he entered the house: "There is something in the court today, the master is in a bad mood, talk and do things by yourself, don't twist it." ”
Su Peisheng has always been very good to me, and he will always mention more. When he said this, I also understood a little in my heart, and it must be something in the court that made him feel and began to be entangled.
In fact, Yinzhen's temperament is not as cold and calm as he usually sees, he is easy to be impatient when encountering things, and it is said that Kangxi criticized him for being "moody" back then. So he has been trying to endure and suppress his character, wanting to make himself a good son in Kangxi's mind.
But when a person's personality is suppressed for a long time, it will become depressed, which may be one of the reasons why he always seems to have unsolvable sorrows. I think it's better to let him vent his emotions at this time, otherwise it will inevitably damage his body.
I followed Su Peisheng into the house, and after waiting for him to change clothes and serve tea, I left the study and entered the small dining room to gather up, and it was not until lunch time that I entered the house with a pot of fragrant beef stew.
"I'm busy now, I don't need lunch, you can eat it yourself. He said lightly without raising his head, his tone as cold as the ice ridges hanging from the eaves.
I didn't screw it with him, but put the beef stew on the couch table, and said to myself in a voice that he could hear: "It's a pity that the beef that has been slowly stewed in the morning has not been tasted." You must know that beef stew is a technical job, if the heat is too urgent, it will be too old, but if the heat is not enough, it will not taste good, so you must be patient and watch the heat slowly. “
Yinzhen listened to me muttering, first felt disturbed and frowned, but when I finished speaking, he put down his pen and got up and walked to the couch and sat down, picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks and tasted it, raised his eyebrows and said: "It's not bad, the heat is just right, and the taste is moderate." But how can I hear that you don't seem to be talking about beef, but what is being implied by something in your words?"
In the face of smart people, it is always easy to speak, I know that he heard the sound of the strings, but he pretended to be stupid and said: "No, I am just talking about beef, otherwise what else can I say?" "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh-isn't that what you mean?" Yinzhen didn't look at me, just reached out and picked up another piece of beef, and put it in his mouth as he spoke. "I'm just a woman, where do I know what the principles of governing the country, I really talk about things, I'm just talking about beef stew. Or are you smart enough to think of so many truths at once. "I knew that this person knew better than anyone else in his heart, and I guessed that I was trying to remind him, but I didn't admit it, and said it on purpose. "Okay, don't try to hide from me with your little thoughts, if you have anything to say in the future, don't fix those twists and turns. Yinzhen stopped me and put a piece of beef in my bowl. "Okay, let's talk well, what happened to the court today, can make you angry like this?" he didn't like to turn around, and I was tired, so he simply asked directly.
Speaking of this, Yin Zhen slapped the chopsticks on the table coldly, startling me, looking at him inexplicably, waiting for his answer.
Yin Zhen stood up and paced in the room, thinking about it before he spoke: "At the beginning of the year, Huang Ama issued an edict, saying that mining is not beneficial to the place, and those who request mining in the future are not allowed to do it. Only government-run mining or imperial merchants can open mines, but private mining, including landlords, merchants, and poor people, is strictly prohibited, especially private mining and large-scale mining, with the implementation of this edict, some mines in Guangdong, Hunan, Sichuan, and Henan have been banned. However, the ban on mining caused miners to lose their jobs and reduce local incomes. "Why would the emperor suddenly have such an edict?" I was not very clear about the details of the political system during the Kangxi period, and I asked in confusion when I heard him say this. "In fact, it is also helpless for Huang Ama to issue such an edict. The corruption of officials in various localities is only visible, and there are countless cases of land being forcibly annexed. The situation of the peasants is getting worse day by day, and along with the contradictory plans, civil unrest of various scales occurs from time to time. In this case, Huang Ama is naturally very sensitive to trouble, and takes very strict precautions, and everything is important to avoid causing trouble. Private mining inevitably recruits a large number of strong men, and these people often become a hidden danger of gathering crowds to make trouble because of some resentment, so the emperor Ama issued an edict to avoid gathering too many people. Yinzhen explained. (To be continued.) )
