As soon as he entered the Qianqing Palace, Yinren was startled, and a bunch of ministers knelt on the ground of the Qianqing Palace. Yinren glanced at it casually and found that most of them were from the household department.

Yinren didn't say anything, and gave Kangxi a salute in a proper manner: "Erchen asks for peace to Huang Ama, and Emperor Ama is blessed with Jin'an." After speaking, Kangxi said softly: "Get up, but what do you have to say?" ”

Yinren saw that Kangxi didn't even look at the ministers kneeling below, but instead talked to himself by himself, and after pondering for a while, he had a plan in his heart.

"There are indeed some things that the retainer wants the emperor to pay attention to, but?" As he spoke, Yinren glanced at the ministers kneeling around. Kangxi may have been really angry, and snorted coldly at those ministers before saying, "You guys go down and wait first!" After going down, give me a good reflection and reflection! Don't you forget who you are! ”

After saying that, he stopped looking at these people. A bunch of ministers below, led by Hubu Shangshu, hurriedly thanked Kangxi for his grace and retreated. Since Kangxi gave himself such a good opportunity to sell favors, it was really in vain.

When the ministers all went out, the door of the Qianqing Palace was closed again. Kangxi looked at Yinren and said lightly: "Say, what is it that made you find it at this time?" ”

Yinren was not hypocritical, and hurriedly said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that Cao Hao, the sister-in-law of Jiangning Weaving Cao Yin, has already come to the capital yesterday." ”

"Huang Ama said before that he would let him be a companion to the clan, and the sons didn't dare to make their own decisions, so they thought of coming over and asking Huang Ama to see which sect's subordinates he sent this Cao Hao to."

When Kangxi heard this, he groaned slightly for a moment, and then said softly: "This Cao Yin is such an only son, and the Cao family will inevitably let Cao Hao take over in the future." His current temperament is really not very good. ”

After a pause, he looked at Yinren and said, "In my opinion, why don't you let him be a companion to Honghui's child?" Reading to Honghui left and right can also give him an identity. ”

Saying that, Kangxi also glanced at Yinren as if inadvertently.

As soon as he heard what Kangxi said, Yinren's heart tightened, Kangxi was clearly testing himself. On the surface, he asked Cao Hao to read to Honghui, but in essence, he was testing himself.

You must know that Cao Hao can be said to represent the future of the Cao family to a certain extent. And once they become companions, the master and slave are closely linked together, and it can be said that they are both prosperous and lossy.

Kangxi made it clear that he had dug a pit and was waiting for him to jump down, once he agreed to let Cao Hao read to Honghui as a companion, he would represent that he had an attempt on the Cao family.

But the Cao family is still an indispensable force under Kangxi, and once he agrees to let Cao Hao be Honghui's companion, it will be under Kangxi's hands. is digging the corner of Kangxi's wall.

There were many thoughts in my heart, but none of them were revealed on my face. Yinren thought for a while, pretended to be a little frightened, and said, "Huang Ama, please think twice." ”

"When this Cao Hao was in Jiangning, he was held in his hands by the whole family for fear of falling, and he was afraid of melting in his mouth. If she is still asked to read to Honghui's child during her stay in the capital, Pingbai will elevate his status. ”

"The child doesn't know anything yet, rashly let him have this status, coupled with Jiang Ning's spoiling, after a long time, I'm afraid that he will develop an arrogant and domineering temperament, not only will he not help him when the time comes, but he will also hurt him."

After thinking about it, Yinren gritted his teeth and said to Kangxi: "To put it mildly, this Cao family is the favored minister of Huang Ama, if Cao Hao is allowed to be Honghui's companion, I am afraid that the ministers of the court and the central government will have some thoughts." ”

After listening to this, Kangxi didn't speak, but nodded secretly, which was satisfied with Yinren's reply.

After Yinren finished speaking, after a while, Kangxi said: "Then tell me, who does Cao Hao's child mean to be a companion?" ”

Seeing Kangxi asking, Yinren didn't panic this time. After all, Yinren had already thought about this question on the way back to the palace. "Erchen thinks that it is okay to let this Cao Hao be a companion to an ordinary clan."

When Yinren said this, Kangxi became a little interested, and asked loudly, "Oh? Tell me, why did you want that child to be a companion to an ordinary sect member? ”

Seeing that Kangxi was interested in this matter, Yinren's heart finally calmed down. After all, if you have interest, then the rest of the things are easy to say.

Yinren sorted out his mood, then looked at Kangxi and said: "If you go back to Huang Ama, then Cao Hao is just a coat, and Huang Ama personally ordered him to be a companion to the clan, such as studying in the study, this is a grace." ”

"But if he is ordered to be a companion to the prince's son and grandson, then this favor will be a little too much, and the people below will inevitably not have some thoughts that they shouldn't have. In that case, Huang Ama's initial plan would be in vain. ”

After another pause, Yinren continued: "Moreover, now that the Cao family is in the territory of Jiangnan, its power is probably better than that of the eight major families in Beijing. ”

"If you are too much grace, I am afraid that the people's hearts are not enough to swallow the elephant, and in the end you will get into trouble for nothing." Yinren's words were not said casually, but deliberately said them to Kangxi.

Now that Cao Yin and Kangxi are too closely combined, even if they want to do things in the territory of Jiangnan, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape Kangxi's ears and eyes. Yinren naturally will not let go of all opportunities to separate the relationship between Cao Yin and Kangxi.

And with Kangxi's suspicious temperament now, if he doesn't have to say anything, Kangxi will be suspicious of Cao Yin or the Cao family.

As soon as Yinren finished saying this, sure enough, Kangxi's smile that he had just mentioned as interest had disappeared, and was replaced by a constricted brow and slightly pursed lips.

Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Yinren stopped talking and stood quietly aside waiting for Kangxi to make his decision. Kangxi is not a vegetarian, but he made Yinren wait for a while, and then said: "That is the case, this Cao Hao is indeed not suitable for Honghui's child to read." ”

"In this way, the kid in Prince Zhuang's Mansion who hasn't been accompanied by reading is just at the age of entering school, so let Cao Hao be his companion!" Yinren was slightly surprised in his heart, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Kangxi's gourd.

But he still said quite respectfully: "Emperor Ama Shengming." ”
