There is no dog blood in the world, but if you spill too much, it will appear to be dog blood.

Cao Hao looked at the sixteenth elder brother in front of him, but he had a new interpretation of "dog blood" in his mind.

In order for him to "save the driver", Kangxi has made a decree and upgraded his title by two levels. Now, Cao Hao has been promoted from a first-class man to a second-class son.

The second-class son's salary is 385 taels per year, which is less than 310 taels before Cao Hao.

In addition, the holy decree also wrote that Cao Hao was given a thousand taels of gold to praise his "loyalty".

Thinking that it was his "life-selling" money, Cao Hao couldn't help but look at each other even if he wasn't stingy.

Let's talk about the title first, even if he can live for another sixty years, he will not be too much 4,500 taels of silver if he is promoted to two levels.

One tael of gold and ten taels of silver, and a thousand taels of gold, and ten thousand taels of silver.

He narrowly escaped his life and earned 14,500 taels of silver. Not to mention anything else, this time I want to replace these with small ingots, and I have nothing to do with a few under the bedside and under the pillow.

If you don't touch it, you can remember your surname for a long time.

Don't talk about human feelings and idle hearts, people, it's better to know your own weight.

Cao Hao looked around the room to recuperate from his injuries, but he didn't see the shadow of the thousand taels of gold.

When the sixteenth elder brother saw it, he coughed and said, "That gold...... You went on the fold again, and you refused to accept it, and donated it to the northwest as a military salary......"

Cao Hao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Although I have been awake for many days, why don't I remember when I was on the fold?

After being stabbed, he was already wronged, how could he still pretend to be that big clove of garlic?

This "donation" is too showy, and I don't know how many people will be jealous.

After all, if this opening is opened, then the prince Baylor, civil and military officials, will have to pay for the silver.

Not everyone is spacious, they don't dare to complain about the court and Kangxi, so they will naturally be angry with the "initiator" Cao Hao.

It's really used thoroughly, and in the name of a "reward", I'm afraid that the imperial court will be able to raise an army of 100,000 or 80,000.

Cao Hao's heart was already a little numb, but in front of the sixteenth elder brother and the palace maid Su Xin, he was not happy at all.

He nodded and said, "That's right, that's right." ”

The sixteenth elder brother sent Su Xin out, and then sat on the chair opposite Cao Hao, with a sneering expression, and said: "Fu Ruo, don't be annoyed, I didn't expect to make such a big move, and let you suffer a big crime, I'm really sorry." Huang Ama instructed me not to let you hear it, and I didn't dare to say it too thoroughly in front of Wei Zhu. ”

Cao Hao had resentment in his heart, but he also put it away, shook his head with a smile, and said: "The sixteenth master said that he laughed, he got the credit for nothing, and he was promoted to a two-level title. ”

The sixteenth elder brother was about to say more, and he heard someone say: "Be content and happy, your heart can be so open-minded, and you will definitely have a blessed place in the future." ”

It was Kangxi who arrived, the sixteenth elder brother got up busily, Cao Hao also got up from the bed with his chest on his chest, and wanted to bow down Now, it is already September, Kangxi has changed into thin tweed clothes, and the whole person looks much better than half a month ago.

Seeing that Cao Hao was about to kneel, Kangxi raised his chin to the sixteenth elder brother and said, "Help him to sit by the kang." Excuse me. The last two words were said to Cao Hao.

Cao Hao said firmly, and his body had been helped to the side of the kang by the sixteenth elder brother.

Kangxi looked at Cao Hao's somewhat sunken eyes due to this illness, waved his hand, and sent the sixteenth elder brother out.

This is the arrival of the play, Cao Hao sighed in his heart, but his face was deferential.

At this time, I heard Kangxi say: "I originally wanted to give you the credit for Qingtian to make a talisman, but I didn't expect it to be a big taboo and didn't notify you in advance." ”

Cao Hao's eyes couldn't help but glance at Kangxi, but he was quite unimpressed, is this a "talisman" or a "talisman"?

Kangxi was already sitting in the chair where the sixteenth elder brother had sit, rubbed his temples, and said: "The treasury is scarce, and the inner treasury is also lacking now, but the armament of the northwest is urgent...... Cao Hao, I need silver...... You have never liked to stand out, and you have hidden scruples in your heart, afraid of 'rabbits and dead dogs', and afraid of being hated by others. ”

It turned out that it was not to test his loyalty, but to allow himself to use the emperor as the backstage and speculate on gold openly.

Cao Hao's heart only felt ridiculous, but he still listened respectfully on his face.

"Ming'er I move, you go back to the capital to recuperate first, and the mission of the military department has been handed over in advance...... After your injuries are healed, you will be promoted to the Minister of Internal Affairs, help me plan and make some money! Kangxi's voice was a little helpless: "I didn't want to force you, but now the war in the northwest is urgent, and I won't wait for anyone." On the side of the Internal Affairs Office, you have a position, and you can be regarded as a famous teacher. I will ask the sixteenth elder brother and the seventeenth elder brother to assist you in taking care of the trivial matters of the yamen. ”

"It was said that you raised the military funds in the northwest, you are the hero of the Qing Dynasty, if anyone dares to frame you because of jealousy and slander, I will not spare it." In the end, Kangxi's face showed determination.

The Minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is also known as the "Minister of Internal Affairs".

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is a three-grade yamen, and the general manager is a three-grade civil servant. In addition to being promoted from the princes, ministers, scholars of various courts, and squires, there were also those who were promoted from the Manchurian guards and the subordinate officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Although Cao Hao is now a fifth-grade Langzhong, he has been promoted to the third-rank Taifu Siqing before. Because of the "mistake" of the errand, he was demoted three levels in a row, which has a warning effect.

From this point of view, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, who has been promoted to the third grade, is not too lucky.

Cao Hao was too lazy to think about it, he just wanted to go to bed earlier, heal the injury earlier, and get home earlier.

Since it is Kangxi's message, he can return to Beijing to recuperate from his injuries, and Cao Hao is very much like a sword.

This "gift" and "promotion" are all available, and he is afraid that it will spread to the capital, so that his parents, wife and children will worry...... On the sixth day of the ninth month, the holy car turned back to Rehe, and Cao Hao took a carriage and returned to Beijing by way of naturalization from Uriya Sutai.

Accompanying him, in addition to the Cao family's entourage and the naturalized fifty Mongolian Eight Banner soldiers, there was also Cui Fei, the foreign steward of Prince Jian's mansion.

At the beginning of the year, after listening to Cao Hao's words, he bought a lot of sheepskins and fox skins outside his mouth, and Cui Feiyuan was still a little worried, afraid of suppressing the cost.

Or Yarjianga can see it, and everyone says that Cao Hao is "good money", so he will believe it, and he won't lose a few dollars left and right. Even if you squeeze it in your hands, if you want to solve it, it's not impossible.

This year, Yaerjianga also went out of Beijing with the holy car, but after arriving in Rehe, he did not follow the grassland, but stayed in Rehe to escape the summer.

Cui Fei was ordered by his master to meet a deputy commander from King Jian's mansion and talk about the leather goods in his hand.

But it was just right, just when the Ministry of War needed to buy sheep robes and fox hats, and all Cui Fei's leather goods were sold to the Ministry of War.

His warehouse outside the mouth is naturalized. From before naturalization to the Northwest Army, the reason is also cheap.

Although the military department said that there was no money, it did not dare to take advantage of the Heshuo Palace. One mile and one away, Cui Fei also made a small profit for the palace this time.

To Cao Hao, he is more and more attentive and polite.

When Cao Hao was impatient to speak, he fell asleep in the car; When I wanted to speak, I listened to Cui Fei talk about the situation of the various tribes in the grassland.

Wei Hei and Zheng Hu were both uncomfortable with Cao Hao's injury, and they all gritted their teeth when they talked about the Jungger people.

Cao Jia's gaze was more insightful, and when he looked at Cao Hao, he seemed to be quite disdainful.

Cao Hao couldn't help but shout in his heart that he was wronged, it seems that Cao Jia regarded him as a villain who did "bitter meat tricks".

I still wanted to defend two sentences, but there was a lot to do with it, and it was not something that could be explained clearly in one sentence or two, so Cao Hao didn't say much.

The state of mind is also a little detached.,It seems that the opinions of others have become less important than in the past.。

If you want to misunderstand, you can misunderstand, speaking of which, it's not wrong to think that way.

There is an element of "bitter meat trick" in this, which is just a passive "response" to the battle.

The young men of Dzungar had different endings, and Temur and two other Dzungars of the same race were beheaded.

Knowing nothing of Temur's conspiracy, he and the other Dzungars came under the leadership of the Eight Banners Mongols, and were given money, property, and women.

Because of his scruples about Cao Hao's body, the road was slow and leisurely, and by the time he was naturalized, it was already October.

Cao Hao's body is only bigger at this time.

The newspaper here is complete, the holy car has returned to Rehe, but did not rush back to the capital before the first day of October as in previous years, and promulgated the yellow calendar of the coming year at the palace gate on the first day of the new year.

The battle reports in the northwest are also like cards, and Cao Hao has also read them roughly, but for various reasons, they are also mainly defensive......

It's nothing more than how to advance into Hami, how to garrison troops everywhere and so on.

After taking a break for a few days after naturalization, Cao Hao and his entourage set off again, and it took more than 20 days to get to Beijing after a journey of more than 1,000 miles.

* Beijing, Taihe Palace, Great Dynasty Meeting.

The Holy Driver returned to Changchun Garden on October 19, returned to the palace on October 21, and looked at the court in the Taihe Hall on the 25th.

Cao Yin stood among the courtiers, watching Wenwu be promoted to thank the officials in turn, but he was thinking about his son.

He learned about his son's injury at the end of September, and although he was worried, he was afraid that his wife would worry about it, so he didn't dare to show it at home.

For a while, the dynasty was scattered, Cao Yin pondered in his heart, and he didn't need to send someone to welcome Cao Hao back.

As soon as I got out of Jinshui Bridge, I saw Cao Yuan's face burnt, trotted over, bowed down and said, "Master, grandma sent someone to report the news, and my wife is afraid that she is going to give birth......"

"Huh?" Cao Yin's expression was unpredictable, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried.

But he didn't have the heart to go to the yamen, Cao Yin told Cao Yuan to go to the Ministry of Rites to take leave, and he quickened his pace, arrived at the place where the horse was parked, and shouted the horse to go back to the house.

In addition to Chu Yu, the mother and daughter of the second room Zhaojia are also there.

In a few days, the second room Cao Shuo's posthumous son Tianhu will be full moon. Although it is still in Cao Shuo's filial piety period, after all, it is the joy of the full moon of Tianhu, and he always wants to let the child show his face in front of his relatives.

Li had already entered the delivery room prepared in advance, and the maids and maids shuttled back and forth with hot water.

Cao Yin put his hands behind his back, thinking about his eldest son who was still on the road, and thinking of his second son who died young, but he also secretly prayed that he could have another son.

"Ah......h......h When the tired Cao Hao entered the second gate and passed by the Lanyuan to say goodbye to his mother, he heard the happy voice of his mother-in-law coming from the upper room: "Congratulations to Lord Cao, Mrs. has given birth to a little son, and both mother and son are safe...... Born with a different appearance, he must be a great nobleman......"
