In the backyard of Prince Yong's mansion, Yinzhen and Wu Sidao had a game of hand, and they were defeated, and while messing up the chess game, he asked in a sullen voice, "Mr. has heard of the rumors in the capital in the past few days?" What do you think? ”

Wu Sidao smiled and said nothing, took care of his own chess pieces, and said later, "The fourth master has a melancholy face, and his chess game is full of flaws, I think there is an answer, why do you need to ask Sidao again?" ”

Yin Zhen said with a smile, "Mr. Gaocai, this matter is suspected to be done by the eighth brother, but it is a bitter and unsolved method, does Mr. have a clever trick?" ”

Wu Sidao bowed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "This matter must have been done by the Eighth Master, and there is the shadow of the Fourteenth Master behind it." ”

Yin Zhen was not only surprised, "And the fourteenth brother's share?" ”

"Yes." Wu Sidao nodded, "There are different opinions outside, and the rumors are even more confusing, it is obvious that someone is pushing the waves and trying to confuse the public, what is the purpose?" Naturally, in order to cover up the true identity, why should such a great good deed of Ze and the people's livelihood be concealed?

Whether it is the court or a businessman, doing this kind of good deed, will be publicized with great fanfare, this thing is not tens of thousands of taels of silver to take down, the court is famous, businessmen are profitable, how can there be no publicity? It is even more impossible for officials, not to mention that they do not have this financial resources, even if they do, what good is it to do so? The downside is obvious. It was even more impossible for the plebeian gentry, who did not have the financial resources or the organizational ability.

Therefore, the only possibility is the prince, the benefits of the prince doing this, one is to invite the people and the other is to invite favors, why hide his identity? That's because I'm afraid, I'm afraid of being accused of inviting people's hearts. The saint has always been upright, and he is naturally happy to see this kind of good deeds of the people's livelihood, and will vigorously promote and commend them, and at this stage to cover up his identity, one can avoid the crime of inviting people to buy people's hearts, and the other is just to capture the old and indulge, first suppress and then promote.

The prince with this financial resources and ability can only be the eighth master and one party, why is there a shadow of fourteen behind him?

The main thing is this kind of unbelievable idea, this is a unique idea, the eighth master and the ninth master should not be able to think of it, only the fourteenth master who likes to be unexpected and likes to be different can think of it. The fourteenth master entered Beijing on March 18, and they had a discussion with the eighth master, and at the beginning of April, the project started, which is not a coincidence, followed by financial resources, this thing is difficult to complete without hundreds of thousands of taels, and finally it is the method of this matter, and it is an upright conspiracy, which is also the usual style of the fourteenth master, as for cracking, it is not very difficult. ”

Wu Sidao said this in one breath, and the problem of selling guanzi was committed again, so he poured himself a cup of tea slowly and tasted it slowly.

Although Yin Zhen guessed that it was the eighth child's doing, how could he analyze it like Wu Sidao, he was convinced to listen to these words, and secretly glad that this talent was in his own hands, if the opponent had such a talent, then he would really have to sleep and eat restlessly, seeing Wu Sidao selling Guanzi, he didn't urge, just sat and waited with a smile. Bayi Chinese~

Wu Sidao hung his appetite before he spoke, "Releasing a rumor can make the other party's project progress slow, or even completely stagnate." ”

"Oh?" This is a good way, Yinzhen couldn't help leaning forward, "What rumors?" ”

"As the so-called wealth is moving, the fourth master only needs to release the news that when Li Zicheng, a thief in the former Ming Dynasty, evacuated Beijing, due to the rush of time, he buried a large amount of gold, silver and jade in the gutter."

This is also outrageous, who would believe such nonsense? Yin Zhen hesitated, "Does anyone believe this news?" ”

"Naturally, no one believes it." Wu Sidao chuckled, "But now they are digging the ditch, and they refuse to say the main owner behind it, it is already suspicious, as soon as this rumor comes out, the fourth master will arrange a few more nurseries, saying that who has picked up gold, silver and jade in the ditch, so they can't believe it, especially the poor people." ”

"Wonderful!" Yin Zhen's eyes lit up, if the encouragement succeeded, those projects that dug the sewer ditch would inevitably be stopped by the people, and the sewer ditch in the entire capital would also be dug to the ground, and then someone would be found to impeach him, hehe.

Wu Sidao reminded in a deep voice, "Fourth Master, this is the next step, the erosion of the sewer ditch will inevitably lead to a commotion in the capital, and the saint will be angry, and he will definitely investigate it strictly, once the matter is not secret, the consequences are unimaginable." ”

Yin Zhen's face darkened, and he was happy again, "Mr. still has a clever plan?" ”

"It's going to cost money." Wu Sidao sighed lightly, "In the huge capital, there are many major events related to people's livelihood, they can renovate the drains, build garbage stations, and public latrines, can't the fourth master and the prince repair the streets, build a school hall, one can win the hearts of the people, and the other can win the hearts of the scholars, these two measures can at least be equal to the eighth master." ”

Yin Zhen frowned, "This is a good strategy, but where did you get so much silver, and the second brother can't count on it." ”

Qianqing Palace West Warm Pavilion.

Yin Yu respectfully kowtowed to Kangxi to say goodbye, and after the ceremony, Kangxi asked gently: "Has your body improved?" ”

Yin Xi replied cautiously, "Back to Emperor Ama, the imperial doctor said that you can recover after a month of rest." ”

"Well, the illness is like a thread, and you can't make any noise, so you should respect the doctor's advice and recuperate." Kangxi turned his head as he spoke, "In recent days, the Beijing division has been rarely lively, and the measures to improve the environment of the Beijing division and benefit the people of the capital division, such as garbage stations, public latrines, renovation of sewers, and tree planting, are from you?" ”

Yinxi had already expected on the way into the palace that Kangxi was suddenly summoned for this matter, since the start of the project, he had already calculated, the old fourteen both came up with ideas and money, this credit cannot be erased, and he does not dare to erase it, otherwise what will the brothers think of him in the future? Who wants to follow a master who is greedy for merit and envy? What's more, he is still recuperating in the mansion at the moment, and he can't come out of this.

"Back to the emperor Ama, this matter was set when the fourteenth brother returned to Beijing, and he also took out a share of the 'Four Great Heng' as funds, and the specific affairs were handled by the ninth and tenth brothers, and the sons were just praising them."

If it is really the handiwork of the old fourteenth, he also took out a share of the 'Four Heng', and this kid only left a total of four shares in his hand, which is really generous enough, and it is 500,000 yuan as soon as he makes a move. Kangxi was also secretly speechless, and couldn't help asking, "It costs so much silver?" ”

Yin Yu replied respectfully, "Back to Emperor Ama, the fourteenth brother said that this matter is not only about the people's livelihood but also about our own safety, the capital is clean, it is not easy to breed plague, since it is to be done, it must be done perfectly, not to fall into the face of the royal family, and he also said that if there is any remaining money, the streets will be renovated." ”

This temperament is somewhat similar to himself, Kangxi thought with great relief, he originally thought it was just a matter of people's livelihood, but he didn't expect it to involve the prevention of plague, this is government affairs, it is difficult for Lao Fourteen to see far, see thoroughly, and think thoughtfully. Thinking of the recent secret report about the old fourteenth, he was not only a little funny, this guy actually walked all the way to Xuzhou with a group of clan disciples, and he was really a bit fucked. Thinking of this, Kangxi also relaxed and said with a smile, "Such a good deed for the benefit of the country and the people, why do you deliberately hide it?" ”
