Chapter XIV Arrangement

Yes, Cao Yin is in charge of Cao Yun at this time. If Cao Yun took the lead in this matter, even if Cao Yin did not participate, he would not be able to escape the crime of lax supervision. Moreover, this matter is widely implicated, and Kangxi has always treated his ministers leniently, even if he reports it, he can only grasp the big and let go of the small. offended people for no reason, couldn't punish the first evil, and caused a fuss to himself, he Cao Yin is a capable minister but not a direct minister. He probably won't care about it.

"Who is the current Governor of Caoyun?"

"Contained. Oh, this person you may not be familiar with, hereditary ****. I don't really want to admit it...... Oh, but this person is already a rare cadre in the Qing court. It's just that the matter of Cao Yun involves many children of the clan, and he is afraid that he can't manage it. After Ye Tianxiang finished speaking, he took a sip of tea.

Xu Yougui shook his head: "Ganchen? There are two kinds of officials in this world who are the most hateful. One is that the heart is weak. I am compassionate and sympathetic to others every day, but I can't do anything because of my limited ability. The other is to turn a blind eye. is obviously capable, but he is constrained by various considerations, and in the end he can only choose to turn a blind eye. Cao Yin is the first type, and this implication is the second type. ”

Ye Tianxiang: "Your idea is interesting! ”

Xu Yougui waved his hand and said, "I'm still the same sentence, what do you want me to do, and what can you help me do?" ”

"It's up to you to get there."

"What do you mean by that?"

"In addition to the previously mentioned officialdom in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the relatives and nobles of the clan are involved, and Brother Jiu also has to intervene. The first two don't want to poke things out, but the latter must pass the fold into the Heart Cultivation Palace. It just so happens that my side and Brother Jiu have the same purpose. It's just that if the ninth elder brother wants to climb His Royal Highness the prince, he will inevitably only say things that are unfavorable to the prince. I didn't care about it, I wanted everything involved to be exposed. ”

"You're not here for the victims!" Hearing this, Xu Yougui suddenly felt a little angry. He always thought that although this person had a lot of background, but looking at the jealous and cynical appearance before, he should be a person who asked for the people's life. But he didn't expect him to have no such intentions.

"How so?" Hearing Xu Yougui say this, Ye Tianxiang felt even more funny, why did he think that he wanted to ask for his life for the people?

"You're here to muddy the waters, aren't you? If it is really for the sake of the people, as long as the emperor attaches importance to this matter, there is no need to expose all the people involved. This will not only fail to help the people, but will also anger the emperor and the entire Jiangnan officialdom. Counterproductive. I don't know who you are, but if you have this kind of thought, I would advise you to be smart! I don't want to accompany you. "Get up and get ready to leave.

As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Ye Tianxiang behind him say, "I can give you a lot of money...... Didn't you promise the shopkeeper of Quanfu Lou for his money? ”

Xu Yougui smiled disdainfully at the corner of his mouth, turned around and said, "It used to be, but now it's not." Now that I have seen what the hungry people look like, I have a scale in my own heart. What to do and what not to do doesn't need to be taught. ”

"Good!" Ye Tianxiang slapped the table and stood up. I'm afraid that I've been sitting for a long time, my legs are a little numb, and I can't stand firmly. Yu Ziyan, who was on the side, hurriedly stepped forward to help, but was blocked by him. insisted on walking in front of Xu Yougui and grabbed his arm, "I, Ye Tianxiang, didn't see the wrong person, I have ideas and backbone." Hahaha! ”

"Ziyan, come here!" Ye Tianxiang beckoned Ziyan to come closer, pointed at Xu Yougui and said, "From today on, you follow Mr. Xu." Listen to him. ”

Then he turned to Xu Yougui and said: "You can do what you want, and the result you want is the result I want." ”

……

After the two of them left, Ye Tianxiang returned to the desk. And in the room where I thought there were only the three of them, someone flashed from the light and darkness at this time, and said respectfully: "Military advisor." The prince's case has been closed, and we have already lost a leader. Why did the military advisor get involved in this grain snatching case and openly support an outsider? The subordinates really don't understand. ”

Ye Tianxiang sighed: "Yes." The prince went. But I'm not reconciled! How can I be willing to throw in the towel? Come on, you see. As he spoke, he pulled him to look out the window, with a sad expression, "Look at the people outside the city walls, they are surviving under the rule of the Tartars. You listen! They are calling us, calling us to save them, to revive our Ming dynasty. How can I live up to them, hehe, how can I live up to ......"

wiped away the unwarranted tears, and returned to that calm and breezy appearance: "Let you collect the secret letters exchanged between Ke Shaolong, the leader of the Groove Gang, and Ah Shan, the former governor of Liangjiang, can there be results?" ”

"Back to the military division, Ke Shaolong's people are very cautious, all the documents are hidden very hidden, and his subordinates have not found them. However, the governor of Liangjiang, who is now dismissed from his post and retained in Liangjiang, is a rough billet and has no warning. The subordinates have sorted out the letters in chronological order, I wonder what the next arrangements will be for the military advisor? ”

"Good. I've always been relieved of you. Two copies were transcribed, and one was given to Ziyan. As for the other copy, hand it over to the prefect of Suzhou! He and Ahsan have a grudge for a long time, and he is not afraid that he will not want the handle to send it to the door. ”

"Yes, Strategist."

……

Xu Yougui and Yu Ziyan walked side by side on an arch bridge, and there were two bridges on the left and right of this bridge. The three bridges are parallel, and one hole is intersecting. Originally, it was because of the prosperity and pedestrians, but now it is deserted and sparsely populated, far less than the prosperous scene of rubbing shoulders in previous years. The shops on both sides of the river bank were only left with all kinds of flags hanging quietly, there was no shouting for merchants, and there were no customers, and even the sunlight reflected white light on the stone surface, revealing a lifeless atmosphere. The only sound was the seven-masted ship on the canal, moving slowly, and the sound of the trumpet pulling the boat became the only life.

"When the boats that used to carry out the transportation of the bridge not only shook the sky, but the people on both sides of the strait would also set off firecrackers to respond to the occasion and cheer." Yu Ziyan lay on the railing of the bridge and leaned out half of his body to look under the bridge.

"You're a local?"

Yu Ziyan nodded: "When I was a child, I used to cross this bridge with my grandfather. Grandpa was carrying a flat pole, and I followed behind. With a pigtail, he didn't care about it. As if remembering the happy days of childhood, he smiled brightly, "Look at this railing, I stepped on it, swayed, and didn't know the danger." Hehe, grandpa was always afraid that I would fall off this. I shouted, 'Don't be afraid, there's a boat under this bridge!' When the rivermen who were passing by heard this, they comforted my grandfather and told him not to worry, even if he fell, they would follow. ”

Xu Yougui followed and leaned against the bridge and turned his face to look at her. The white and transparent cheeks under the sun, even the fine fluff can be seen clearly, the delicate facial features, and the smart eyes are very beautiful. He could even imagine this face being naughty and cute when he was eight or nine years old with pigtails.

"And then? What about your grandfather? Why follow Ye Tianxiang? ”

"Later...... Huh? Why are you asking me about my private affairs? Could it be that you are interested in me? He stopped halfway through his sentence, feeling two eyes on him. Yu Ziyan turned his head suddenly, but he didn't expect to meet Xu Yougui's gentle eyes. I thought to myself, it turns out that this stupid boy still has such gentle eyes.

Before she could look at it for a while, she reacted to the convenience, and quickly withdrew her gaze, her face was red, and her eyes were evasive, "What...... What are you interested in? Didn't you just say it yourself...... I'll just follow in."

"Hey! What are you hiding!? I'm not a tiger. Seeing that he was scared like that, Yu Ziyan felt bored again, "Let's go!" Don't hide, get down to business! ”
