It has been a year since Xin Ru returned to Jiangsu, and under the favor of Ama Eniang and her second brother, Xin Ru has lived a carefree life like the previous ten years, and of course Xin Ru has a few more nurturing grandmothers in her life.

Now Lan Rong and Cheng Yu have been relieved under Xin Ru's many persuasions, Suo Yuluo's family is already planning for her to become the prince Fujin, now only Yuan Hao is a little awkward, after all, he watched Shui Lingling's sister grow up, and was arched by a "pig" that he had never seen, and he naturally did not have a fork in his heart, but the family had already decided, and he really had no right to speak.

In the past year, Cheng Yu has been in contact with the spies in the capital, and his spies have been trained by him using modern methods of training agents, and the spies themselves do not know who their masters are, and he can guarantee that no one else knows about the existence of these spies except him.

Although the secret agents are secretive, there are also risks in using them, and usually his sources come from the dark lines of the Soyuro family.

This time, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to investigate the temperament of the fourth elder brother, he would not have used secret agents, after all, there was no outsider in the secret line of the Suo Yuluo family, and he was secretly looking for the news of the emperor's elder brother, if the suspicious Emperor Kangxi knew, their Suo Yuluo family would basically be finished.

In the Forbidden City, Kangxi listened to the tax reported by the household department that half of the tax was higher than last year, he was very happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "You did a good job, Liang Jiugong, you personally sent Master Ma Qi out of the palace." "Of course, along with Liang Jiugong out of the palace, there is also a holy decree of reward.

Ma Qi because of his good work in the household department, he was given the title of household secretary in the twenty-eighth year of Kangxi, and this year because the tax is much more than in previous years, and he was rewarded by Kangxi, and he was in the limelight for a while.

Ma Qi can do the position of the head of the household, naturally knows Kangxi's taboo, and when he sees someone who comes to give gifts to visit, he will let him Fujin be unwell, and he will not be able to see guests.

Although the rejected person knows that this is an excuse, they don't want to "form a party for personal gain", and they can't be forced to be anxious, right?

According to the memory of Yinzhen's previous life, this Ma Qi should be named the secretary of the military department this year, but this world is no longer the same as his impression, so it is not incomprehensible that Ma Qi's official position has changed or something.

He felt that if someone told him that the characters in the Dream of Red Mansions had suddenly appeared, he would not be surprised by anything.

Kangxi is still very happy this year, a few days ago, a secret agent came to report, saying that the group of officials released last year did a very good job, especially those "science" students, although some forces in the middle of it are hindering, but basically all of them have been resolved one by one, he is very satisfied!

In addition, this year's tax revenue is much more than in previous years, I heard that it is because of the emergence of new crops in Jiangsu, potatoes, the yield of potatoes is high, the requirements for the production area are low, because of the emergence of potatoes, even if most of the land is now in the hands of the powerful, farmers can eat enough.

When they can eat enough, some people want to earn money to provide for their children's education, and the tax revenue of merchants has been one of the important revenues of the Qing treasury after several reforms (promoted by Yinzhen), and there is naturally more silver in the treasury.

Kangxi thought that if he joined the successful promotion of potatoes throughout the country, he would basically be able to solve the basic food and clothing problem of the people of the Qing Dynasty.

As soon as he thought of this, his heart began to heat up, he decided to go to Jiangsu to investigate and investigate, and by the way, he always took it with him in the capital, and he also felt bored.
