It was late June when Zhang Tingyu received Tian Wenjing's decision to deal with Chao Liu's case. Prior to this, he had received excerpts from Che Ming and Hu Qiheng. At the same time, they also unanimously accused Tian Wenjing of being arbitrary, oppressing, and appointing bandits, cruel and cruel poisons, saying that the gentry of Henan Province "heard that Tian Zhongcheng wanted to pay grain for the officials and gentry in one place, and they were panicked and could not be at peace, or even 'talked about the fields and changed color,' and they sold their manors one after another, abandoned the peasants and went south to do business, and next year's plans are very worrying." He also said that Henan officials were not afraid of the laws of the imperial court but were afraid of Tian like a snake and scorpion, and "all had the ambition of abandoning officials and retiring." The reason why Zhang Tingyu didn't immediately present the excerpt to Yongzheng Yulan was because he wanted to wait for Tian Wenjing's excerpt, and he must explain these things. Unexpectedly, Tian Wenjing's excerpts were repeated and repeated, just talking about the case of Chao Liu's on the matter, and he did not torture the living people, but only one sentence: "It is not enough to deter the traitor and restore the decadence, and it is not so incapable of comforting the saint, loving and cultivating kindness, punishing the traitor, and eliminating the adulterer." As for the gentry's payment of grain and the officialdom's reaction to Chao Liu's case, they didn't mention it at all. Zhang Tingyu thought about it carefully, and it was not appropriate for him to speak easily about this matter, so he sorted out the abridgements of the excerpts of the three people, even brought the original manuscript, and went to the Heart Cultivation Hall to ask Yongzheng to meet. He didn't know how many times a day he had to come to ask for an order, so he entered the Hanging Flower Gate without waiting for the report, because he saw Fifth Brother Zhang standing on duty in Danqi, so he said: "Is the emperor still reviewing the chapter?" Have you had breakfast yet? ”

"Back to Zhongtang," the fifth brother said with a smile, "Mr. Fang came from Changchun Garden, saying that the Thirteenth Master is good today, long live and happy today, after breakfast, Mr. Fang is here to talk, Tu Lichen came from Fengtian and is talking inside!" Zhang Tingyu knew that Tu Lichen was specially for Yongzheng to take care of the affairs of the sect, since he returned to Beijing from Fengtian, he must have seen the seventeenth elder brother Yunli and the fourteenth elder brother Yun, he didn't want to get involved in the public enmity and personal grudge between the emperor and his brother, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said: "I'm not in a hurry, the emperor has seen someone in a while, you can send the eunuch to the upper study to pass me over." Unexpectedly, Yongzheng heard them talking in the Dongnuan Pavilion, and said through the window: "Fifth brother, is Hengchen here?" Let him in. ”

Zhang Tingyu had no choice but to agree to come in, and saw Yongzheng sitting cross-legged on the warm pavilion kang, but he was only wearing a beige gauze robe as usual, a shiqing gezu gauze gown, only a white jade hook and horsetail tie tied around his waist, a shaved head, and a crown of ten thousand silk tassels was placed on the case. Fang Bud sat on the carved porcelain pier with a rat's beard, but Tu Lichen stood on the south side with his hands down. Zhang Tingyu saluted, and saw that there was a fifth-grade official kneeling outside the warm pavilion, but he couldn't remember his name for a while, so he smiled and said: "I heard that the thirteenth master is sick and safe, the emperor is happy, and the servants are also happy!" ”

"There is joy and there is no joy." Yongzheng said, "That's the kind of person, take advantage of my joy to hand over the sign to ask for a table, and ask for a watch for his mother." He looked at the five-rank official with a blank face, and sneered: "How can I have the reason to use the national etiquette to show grace at will? When I appointed you to the prefect of Taiwan, what did I say? If you can make Taiwan self-sufficient in grain, I will reward your mother with grace! Did you do it? ”

Zhang Tingyu then remembered that it was Huang Liben, the prefect of Taiwan who went to Beijing to report on his work a few days ago, and saw him kowtow again and again without a crown, and said: "The minister is not taking the liberty to ask for a reward, the Fujian Domain Treasury has not allocated a stone of grain to Taiwan this year, which is a document——"

"You're the only one in the world!" Yongzheng cut off his words, "The sea ban has been sealed, you dare to use the mainland's medicinal materials to trade with the Hongmao Country by sea, and buy grain from the Zhangzhou Grain Market and ship it to Taiwan in exchange for money!" If you talk about governance, Taiwan is still quiet, so I don't offend you, but your move is really to deceive me and not know, flaunting pseudo-filial piety and selling fame, like such a heart-wrenching master, one day it will be difficult to protect the head, and you don't know if your mother is involved! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Go down! Think about my words! Yongzheng shouted loudly. Seeing that he was leaving, he stopped again, and his tone had softened: "Valuing agriculture and business is also a gentleman and a villain, and when I go back, I will definitely persuade farmers to reclaim the famine." Remembering that you are still incorruptible, and Taiwan's income has indeed increased, the governor of Fujian Province asks you to add two grades, and this article still counts. You are a virgin and do not hide your merits, and if you are not a virgin, you must also redress yourself bitterly - go! ”

Zhang Tingyu saw that it was empty, and hurriedly picked up the recitals and excerpts of the Henan Santai Division, and said: "The minister has been delayed for a few days to wait for Tian Wenjing's excerpts, please visit the Holy Emperor." Please ask for a decree again, there was a decree before the Chao case, Hu Qiheng was promoted to the governor of Sichuan, and Che Ming was transferred to the political envoy of Huguangbu, do you want to send a vote to the subordinates? Yongzheng ignored Zhang Tingyu's words, instead looked at the music carefully, and asked casually:

"Turichen, you're Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, aren't you?"

"Long live Hui, the minion dog is thirty-two years old."

"Is there a lady in the main room?"

"Yes, I died of fever last year."

"Hmm." Yongzheng put down the chapter, looked at Fang Bao, and said, "I want the Lord to give you a marriage." This has been in my heart for a long time, and it seems that you are still worthy of it. I asked Mr. Fang to see your eight characters, they are all very compatible, I want to ask you if you are willing? Tu Lichen hurriedly knelt down on his knees, kowtowed, and said, "The monarch has a gift, how dare the minister resign?" But the withdrawal of the dead has not yet passed, and the bones of the old man have not yet been cold to welcome the newly, and the heart is unbearable - but I don't know which woman the Holy God gave the marriage? "What I took is your heart." Yongzheng smiled: "You promised quickly, I won't give it to you!" Did you hear about last year's draft girl? I promised to choose a son-in-law for her, but it was not easy to find a military general who was quite old and knew how to write and ink! Come to think of it, it's you! This woman is knowledgeable and courteous, and her appearance is also very good, but her background is a little colder, and I have passed on the decree to the Zongren Mansion, and I think that my righteous daughter is ranked in six grids - how about it, I don't wronged you, right? ”

Zhang Tingyu then remembered that this was the son-in-law of Fu Aguang, who was admonished by the female protest in last year's draft, and said casually at that time, Yongzheng was so serious, and couldn't help laughing: "The emperor didn't say it, the minister has forgotten about this file, there was no file at that time, and it was a small matter, and it was really admirable." Since the Fu Aguang clan has been promoted to a high level, Tu Lichen is a minister and a lord, that is, he should be promoted to a first-class guard. "This matter is very holy, and it is a dereliction of duty for the Ministry of Rites not to keep records." Fang Bao said on the side: "Even if the government is missing, what should be remembered should still be remembered, and the precepts will be established for future generations of the Qing Dynasty." Yongzheng smiled: "That's it." Turichen, you kneel. Liugege has entered the palace today, and this time he will thank your master for his kindness in Zhongcui Palace. In the afternoon, you go in to greet the queen, and you can do whatever you want. ”

"Piercing!"

When Tu Lichen retreated, Yongzheng smiled and said to Zhang Tingyu: "Talk about your serious business." Just talked about Che Ming Hu Qiheng. Recently, I read some secret folds handed over by Henan, saying that there are all kinds of things, saying that there are bad ones, but there are no good people, and even I can't figure out who is bullying the king, anyway, there is. Hengchen, I still make an agreement with you, don't avoid resentment, speak directly about your chest, and I can judge by myself. Zhang Tingyu originally wanted Yongzheng to make up his mind and do things according to his orders, but when he heard Yongzheng say it so thoroughly, he felt embarrassed, and plucked up the courage and smiled: "The minister, like the master, did not come to the scene in person." But Ma Jiahua, the minister's protégé, had a letter the day before yesterday, saying the slang of Henan officialdom, which was very vulgar, and the blogger laughed when he said it. Fu, Domain, Zhen, three drives, each pulling its own set; Three divisions and three trumpets, each blowing its own tune; Tian, Che, Hu, three, each urinating his own urine - although it is said that it is down, it is indeed the truth......"

He didn't finish speaking, Yongzheng Fangbud smiled. Yongzheng saw that a few eunuchs were covering their mouths and giggling, so he immediately smiled, and said, "Minister, what kind of system do you look like?" Exit and go! ”

"According to the minister, Tian Wenjing is dedicated to doing things for the court." Zhang Tingyu frowned and pondered, and said after considering the words, "But if you act in a hurry to repay your kindness, you will inevitably lose a harsh reputation." He wanted to cure Henan Province overnight, so he used a very miserable punishment to deal with the case of ending Chao Liu. According to Ma Jiahua, some of the nuns deserved their crimes, but all of them were beheaded, and some were sentenced too harshly. After that, he glanced at Yongzheng. Fang Bao asked on the side: "How does Ma Jiahua know that there is a grievance?" How many unjustly killed? Zhang Tingyu said: "Baiyi Nunnery is divided into the front yard and the back yard, and a few little nuns in the front yard have a social façade, and there are occasional incidents, but they did not participate in the killing. Three of them are still stone girls, and the biggest crime is 'not knowing', and twenty canes are enough. Therefore, Tian Wenjing's case is reckless. He is a heart of service, and because of his lack of prestige, he wants to stand up, but like Che Ming Hu Qiheng, there is a background behind him, and there is power in his hands, seeing that Tian Wenjing is an officialdom, how can he be willing to cooperate with him? Hu Qiheng folded the piece with a list of Zhang Qiu's corruption, which is what it means. After thinking about this matter, it is a lawsuit before the emperor, and the head has landed, but it is still unclear, that is, it may not be beneficial to say that it is clear to the imperial court. Or according to the emperor's original will, it is the best policy to transfer the car and Hu Erren. ”

Yongzheng listened very carefully, while pondering, his eyes blazing outside. After a while, he turned his face and asked Fang Bao: "Mr. Linggao, what do you see?" Fang Bao was also looking outside the hall, and he didn't know when the sky was overcast. Looking through the glass, large gray-brown clouds slowly rolled southward, covering them for most of the day, and the breeze blew the fine grass on the crimson palace wall and swayed incessantly—although it was not the beginning of autumn, the wind blowing from the north was no longer as scorching as the smoky wind of the middle of summer. Several eunuchs were blowing the wind with their collars open in the hall, but the hall was still a little stuffy. After thinking about it for a long time, Fang Baocai said: "Che Ming is Prince Lian's person, Hu Qiheng is Nian Qianyao's person, and Tian Wenjing is a person from the imperial court. The water in Henan is really like a mirror. The last time Wu Sidao came to Beijing, we talked all night and benefited a lot...... The disease of scabies is not to be considered, and the trouble of the heart and soul cannot be left ......"

Zhang Tingyu couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Who is the disease of scabies, and who is the problem of henchmen? He is the prime minister, and he can't say anything like Fang Bao and Yongzheng, his messenger can only settle the situation openly, and Emperor Zanxiang rules the world with law. But from Fang Bao's words, it can be heard that Yun Yu and Nian Qianyao, the two "parties", have committed "holy taboos", to what extent has they reached, he can only follow this line of thought to "manage yin and yang", because of a smile: "The minister thought that it was originally planned that Che Ming and Hu Qiheng would be transferred, and Che Ming would be appointed as the political envoy of Hu Guangbu, but Hu Qiheng was promoted to the governor of Sichuan, which seemed inappropriate." When Yang Ming's Yunnan political envoy was vacant, it was better to let Hu fill it, and the Sichuan governor was temporarily vacant or temporarily signed by the Sichuan political envoy, I don't know what the holy will is? ”

"That's it." Yongzheng's fine white teeth bit his lower lip and said, "Yue Zhongqi is also the governor of Sichuan, and Hu Qiheng is the rank of Jin, and he will go to Yunnan to meet the ministry." Hengchen - you intend to praise Tian Wenjing, you want to add these two sentences, well--end the huge case that has not been settled for several years, sweep away the haze and perverse atmosphere of the provincial wall, and quickly hope that the people of Yu Province want to clear their hearts - just say this: Let him just do it violently, and today he will only suffer from no fierceness and no leniency! ”

"Piercing!"

Zhang Tingyu promised to quit, but Yongzheng stopped and said with a smile: "This is not military affairs, what's the urgency?" You and Mr. Fang stay here and accompany me to have breakfast before going to work. As he spoke, he ordered the food to be served. Zhang Tingyu and Fang Bao had no choice but to agree and thank them. For a while, I saw the eunuch Sula in the imperial dining room holding a box of imperial meals on the lacquered flower dining table, what pot roasted duck cold roll rolls, red and white duck stewed miscellaneous hot pot, sheep Silzhan, bird's nest chicken cake, wine stewed duck, as well as roasted roe deer meat plate, steamed fat chicken, deer tail plate and four silver plates side dishes, steamed buns and all kinds of small palace points, a table full of cloth is ready. Yongzheng changed his clothes and sat in the center, and said: "You just sit next to you, just use the amount, and it will be boring to be restrained." This table of imperial food is specially for the two of you, I don't have such a generous atmosphere on weekdays, and this warm fire meal, I can't taste it. ”

But Yongzheng is not fragrant, Fang Bao and Zhang Tingyu are even more unlikely to gobble up, the three of them have different identities, one monarch and two ministers, they are all very deep readers, and they pay attention to "food is silent", so this meal is very dull. At this moment, the sky outside is getting more and more overcast, and the slightly cool wind wraps itself in the courtyard, rolling up floating dust in the dark corners of the wall and in front of the wall, and spinning one after another, spinning all over the ground like a top, appearing and disappearing, giving people a sense of mystery and unease. The two of them took a few sips with Yongzheng, and when they saw Yongzheng letting go, they all got up and thanked him. Yongzheng looked at the scenery outside with a loss, as if he was preoccupied, and only after a long time did he take a deep breath and ordered: "All the eunuch palace people go out!" ”

Gao Wuyong agreed, and led the eunuchs and palace maids in the Heart Cultivation Hall to quietly retreat. Fang Bao and Zhang Tingyu exchanged glances, and they both realized that Yongzheng would have an important secret message, but Yongzheng didn't speak, they felt that it was not easy to ask, so they had to stand silently. After a long time, I heard Yongzheng ask:

"Hengchen, this master is more difficult to wait for than the first emperor - you know more about the situation outside than Mr. Linggao, do you have such words? You tell the truth. ”

"Yes." Zhang Tingyu's heart sank suddenly, this is a well-known thing in the officialdom, and he must not be bullied, because he bowed down and said: "The emperor is strict and resolute, does not smile, and has a different personality from the previous emperor. The bad habits of officialdom are figuring out and greeting, and now there is no way to figure it out, so naturally there are these casual remarks. Yongzheng's face became a little pale, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's more than that." There are all words such as 'Emperor of Raiders', 'Emperor of Robbers', and 'Emperor of Fighting the Rich and Helping the Poor', right? Zhang Tingyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, bowed down and acquiesced, and didn't dare to answer a word.

Fang Bao's eyes flashed faintly, and he said, "As far as the minister knows, these words are all there. But there are also courtiers who are considerate of the grace of God, and it is common for public opinion to be different, so please pay attention to the emperor. ”

"I'm not disappointed." Yongzheng said with a smile of self-deprecation on his face: "There are three kinds of people who hate me: those who want to be in the big position, and I sit in the seat; Corrupt officials and inkmen are afraid of me, because I kill and confiscate them, and they have no mercy; The gentry and the strong are not allowed to be in the fish and meat township of the official mansion, so they naturally have to make irresponsible remarks. But Tingyu, do you know how much treasury silver was stored when the first emperor died? ”

"Long live back, seven million taels."

"And now?"

"Fifty million."

Yongzheng slowly stood up and said: "The 50 million silver comes from corrupt officials, not from the small people, 50 million silver has gone into the treasury, and it has not been allocated to the inner treasury to repair the palace and build a garden, so I am confident that the people I will offend are very limited, I can't not offend, and I am not afraid of offending them." He paced slowly, and the blue satin cool soap boots whispered under the gold bricks: "Fifty million...... To keep this number, there are things that can be done, the rivers can be repaired, the disasters can be relieved, and the military can be prepared - I love Xinjueluo Yinzhen can be for the ancestors and ancestors, and for hundreds of millions of people! He looked up at the caisson on the top of the hall, and his tone was extremely heavy and miserable, as if with a flame that wanted to penetrate everything, which made Zhang Tingyu's heart also hot, and he said:

"Hooray......

"What I want to do will never be relaxed, whether it is a clan or a nobleman, if he blocks my steps, I can't tolerate him!" Yongzheng's gaze became green, flashing with fierce Yanwei, "I have made up my mind to pull out the nail of Nian Qianyao!" ”

Zhang Tingyu's heart seemed to fall straight down from the cliff, and it took a long time to freeze his mind, and he frowned tightly and said: "Nian Qianyao is proud of his achievements, and it is obvious that he hinders government affairs. But he has just made meritorious service in Qinghai, and he has been knighted and invited to the throne. Suddenly surrendered, not only did he not accept it, but he was also easy to provoke the villain, disrupting the situation, and it was extremely difficult to deal with the aftermath, please think twice. He paused for a moment and said: "Can it be delayed for a few years, cool down, and the ministers try to rise and fall secretly, strip off the military power, and then dispose of it, slowly and slowly, it seems more secure." Fang Bao sighed and said: "Brother Hengchen, I really don't hide this decision, I first consulted me and Wu Sidao, we are not in the bureau, we are not as responsible as you, maybe we are not thoughtful, just for the emperor's consideration." But Nian Qianyao is arrogant and domineering, and his power is expanding rapidly, and no one can predict what will happen in a few years. He intervened in Henan, and Tian Wenjing couldn't do it if he changed the government; meddling in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Li Wei had to change his position, so he had to come quietly in secret; He intervened in Guangdong, Governor Kong Yuxi, you already know, when the Holy Ancestor went to Qufu, he dared to refuse to open the middle door to greet him, and now Guangdong has nine lives and strange grievances, and he can't show it! Today, we secretly suggest that the Ming people do not speak secret words, and assume that a few years later, the Nian Party and the Eight Masters Party will merge, and Zhang Xiang, you will be under the authority of the king of the council internally, and the grand duke and general will be confined to the heavy army, and you can handle it easily? Will you be able to keep your phase? ”

"I'm forty-eight years old, I have so much to do, I can't wait a few years." Yongzheng smiled coldly, "Hengchen, the only one who can really control the army is Prince Yi, you look at Yunxiang's body and bones, if there are three long and two short, you can't do many things if you want to." Uncle is an unknown person, and Yun Xu, who has the heart to seize the throne until death, and there are already people secretly operating in the Nian army, and it is said that he has a lot to do with Prince Lian - you think about it, should you start now? Besides, I don't want Nian Qianyao's life, as long as he is not in the military and keeps to himself, this also means to save his life. Ma Qi is old, Mr. Fang is a scholar in white, I have high hopes for you! ”

They didn't finish speaking, Zhang Tingyu had fully comprehended, while listening, he was already searching for dry intestines and thinking about a way, at this moment it was really hard work, and Yongzheng didn't answer for a long time after speaking. The three of them were silent, and they didn't know how long it took, and the rustling and rain outside the courtyard gradually rose, and Zhang Tingyu said, "The minister obeys the order." The emperor doesn't know what to do? ”

"I'll see you this afternoon." Yongzheng was expressionless, and said slowly: "From Tu Lichen's edict to Xining, transfer Nian Qianyao to Hangzhou general." It is appropriate for him to do this kind of errand. Fang Bao saw Zhang Tingyu's face surprised, and said on the side: "If Nian Qianyao is edicted, everything will be over; If you don't obey the edict, you can set up a feast in Yue Zhongqi's camp and capture him in one fell swoop. Zhang Tingyu said coldly: "Mr. Fang, you can't copy the ancient books, this is the time when the legal system of the Taiping World is strict!" Be able to do things like acting! What if Nian Qianyao neither obeys the edict nor goes to the feast? Killing innocent heroes at the feast, how to explain to the world? What should I do if Nian Qianyao's subordinates are not satisfied? Yue Zhongqi is less than 10,000 in Qinghai, Nian Qianyao's army is more than 100,000, and Jiubeile Yunyu is also in the army - this will create a big mess! ”

This series of cross-examinations was linked one by one, and Yongzheng and Fang Bao were stunned. After a long time, Fang Bao lowered his eyelids and said, "Hengchen is responsible." I'm thinking about things to the left, and I'm in a hurry. It seems that it is necessary to rethink. Yongzheng smiled and said, "Isn't this being discussed?" You weigh it well, and you are worthy of the word 'Hengchen'. If there is a good idea, let's talk about it. ”

"It's still a step-by-step walk, but you can take a faster step." Zhang Tingyu said solemnly: "Nian Qianyao has no traces at the moment, and he has made great contributions, and the grace that should be given must be given in a dignified manner, and the military salary, money and food must be sufficient." Now that the war has stopped, the right to control the soldiers and horses of the eleven provinces must be withdrawn from the imperial court. I don't need the emperor's decree to do this, I will greet the military department and issue a court edict. He didn't dare to openly disobey. ”

"Hmm."

"On New Year's Day, summoning Nian Qianyao to return to Beijing to report on his work, this is the second step." Zhang Tingyu was thoughtful and said, "If he doesn't come, he will resist the decree, and the court will deal with it in a good way." Yue Zhongqi can be ordered to act as the general of Zhengxi, and transfer the Sichuan army to Qingqing. If you don't comply, it is a rebellion, with a corner of Qinghai, 100,000 soldiers, no food and salary, rebellion is nameless, no need to use soldiers, and the army itself will be in chaos. If he comes to Beijing, it is in my control, and what to do is all up to the holy will, but it cannot be punished, only a consolation, and the emperor's original intention is only to relieve him of military power, and it seems that there is no need to overdo it. ”

Yixi's words were clear and clear, and even Fang Bao lowered his head and secretly obeyed, and said with a smile of self-defeat: "Hengchen, this is a yang scheme, and he is a real minister." I'm ashamed of my conspiracy. Following Tingyu's line of thought, I thought, first, to reward the families of the officers and soldiers of the Nian Division, there is a comfortable nest here, and it is difficult to encourage them to do indecent things there. The second is the defense of Gyeonggi, the thirteenth master is sick, and the seventeenth elder brother can return to Beijing to support him. Yesterday, Gong Tai sent in the secret fold, uncle Long Keduo is now privately hiding his belongings to the homes of relatives and friends and the Xishan Temple, no matter what his face is, what background the search palace is, he has already had two hearts with the emperor. Although he has resigned as the commander of the Nine Gates, he has been in charge of the army for a long time, and it is difficult to dismiss him or punish him or sweep away his prestige. Third, I looked at Zhu Pi in the past, and the emperor praised and praised Nian Qianyao with a lot of criticism, and he wanted to take it back. As soon as the emperor receives it, the lower side will naturally be able to comprehend the holy will, and if it should be a little drizzle, you can try to talk to your subordinates, so that there will be no 'change of surprise', and people's hearts will be easy to settle down. With a pair of ideas, Fang Bao's suggestions seemed to be tightly tight, and Zhang Tingyu couldn't help but praise: "Good!" ”

When Zhang Tingyu resigned, the sky was even lower and the clouds were dark, and the drizzle and mist were gently sprinkled in the cool wind, and the bricks of the courtyard were as if coated with a layer of oil. Yongzheng personally sent out of the hall, standing in the courtyard looking up at the sky, the cool and fresh raindrops like nectar fell on his hot face, comfortable and relaxed, Xing Nian saw it through the glass, and hurriedly came out and said: "The master warms up, so if you catch a cold, it is all the work of the slaves, or open the umbrella, cool for a while, and you should enter the hall when you are refreshed." Yongzheng closed his eyes and looked up, bathed for a while, and said with a smile: "June day, where is it cold?" Go to Zhong Cui Palace to have a look, Tu Lichen saw Niangniang and asked him to come over. After that, he turned around and came in, and ordered someone to open the south window of the East Warm Pavilion, and read the recital with peace of mind. He had read all the high-stacked pieces on the case, but he hadn't approved them yet. After talking with Zhang Tingyu, some of the excerpts still have to be rewatched. Yongzheng thought about it, took out the secret fold handed over by the governor of Guangdong, Kong Yuxi, a few days ago, and wrote with the help of cinnabar, and wrote one stroke at a time:

In addition to asking An Fold, don't use the yellow silk cover, you are a descendant of a saint, and you don't know how to cherish material resources?

A drop of big cinnabar juice fell on the fold, Yongzheng was busy wiping, but it was stained with a larger piece, and he was busy adding small words "This is what I stained, don't panic" and then batched:

In the past, it was rumored that I went to Fengtai to parade the army, which was at the invitation of Nian Qianyao, I don't know who I listened to? Nian Qianyao's brother is in Guangdong Customs, how can he be Yunye? Such nonsense may come from the mouth of an uncle, but it is just a matter of jealousy of the merits of the year. How can I be the lord of Young Chong, and I will wait for the guidance of Nian Qianyao, and how can I be young and strong for Chen?

After writing, he looked at it with satisfaction, and pulled another copy, but it was an excerpt from Wang Jinghao, the governor of Sichuan. Because Wang Jinghao was recommended by Nian Qianyao, he pondered for a long time before writing:

Have you ever sinned against Nian Qianyao, and Inai will want to replace you with Hu Qiheng? If you don't go now, you can do things with peace of mind. Nian Qianyao came to see His Majesty today, and he felt very perverse, and I had a lot of things to lose, and I didn't know if it was caused by his spiritual decline, or if he was full of high achievements. Although you are recommended, don't be a dependent vassal, but a minister used by me, and I am not a lord of how Nian Qianyao can be.

He looked at the three words "Gao Qizhuo" on the fold and saw it, this is Nian Qianyao's sworn enemy, because he drew it, he wrote after a little thought:

What is the proximity of the feng shui of the mausoleum? Zunhua has no good land, but you can go elsewhere, and you can do it well and then yourself. Recently, Nian Qianyao played a number of things, and I suspected that his intentions were not pure, and he had the intention of stealing power by tricks and tricks. Si Qing played before, and I felt very ashamed of Er and Shi Yizhi!

After writing, I took Nian Qianyao's please fold, thought carefully for a while with a blank face, and wrote through the pen with a pen, but it was cursive:

The previous fold said that I "defeated not arrogant, and was dissatisfied with success" is very true. However, I really have no intention of not being arrogant and dissatisfied, out of sincerity, but the sky can show it. If the matter of the West Sea is not blessed, how can it be justified? But as far as things are concerned, it is really the work of the Holy Ancestors. From you down, which one is not the person used by the father, and which soldier is not a soldier who has been cultivated for decades? When it was in a crisis, I had a thought, even if I failed, I refused to admit my fault, so what? Do what was left behind by the Holy Ancestors. Now out of hope, so that he can recognize Qixun himself? I'm really ashamed! Wait for this effort, logically speaking, all of them are my heroes, and according to the situation, all those who serve with their lives are also my benefactors! You don't dare to listen to it, but I really live in such a heart and think so. Those who celebrate my private celebration can be carried out by those who have truly created great blessings, but they can only increase the amount with their hands, and turn this heart to God, so as to pray for the fulfillment of all the time, and they will always be vigilant and unwavering of this ambition.

In addition, in March, the preface of the "Lu Xuangong Recital" was drafted on your behalf, and the decree was issued, and I had the time to write it to reward you, and I could not set a date - I was more happy than anything about this recital, which is, that is, this piece of sincerity, I will feel the eternal blessing of God. This is how Fan Bai treats me, and I don't want to be good and don't know its evil. There are few disagreements, so I will naturally say it to you, rest assured.

As soon as he looked up after writing, he saw Gao Wuyong standing in front of him, so he asked, "Is Tu Lichen here?" Call in. With that, he got up and put on his shoes and walked underground.
