Although Ao Bai is a martial artist, he has been walking in the cabinet all these years, seeing a small number of people, seeing such a large group of people coming in, where does he not understand that Kong Sizhen is to avoid suspicion, not to mention arranging to meet here, but also to make the people of the Kong family come out, in this way, it has become a meeting in the house, and no one can say that she has intersected with foreign ministers.

But what he wanted to say was inconvenient for others to know, so he immediately arched his hand and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, can you take a step to speak?" Ao has something to discuss with the princess. ”

Hearing that Ao Bai even changed the self-title of "minister", Sizhen only pretended to be unconscious, and said with a faint smile: "I also have something to discuss with Lord Ao, but everyone can hear this matter, why don't you listen to me first?" ”

Ao Bai made a deaf appearance.

Although Sizhen said so, after the old lady and a cadre of female relatives saw the ceremony, they avoided the side hall, except for a few Bailing who were waiting for Sizhen, only Sun Bao and Sun Hu brothers stayed.

Sizhen thought of some of the news she had heard before, took a deep breath and said: "Lord Ao is now an assistant to the government, do you know that because of the enclosure, there have been many ragged people, yellow skinny faces, and skinny people on the street recently?" Those people begged along the road, froze and starved to death, but the freshly dressed and angry horses, the high-spirited soldiers and nobles of the Eight Banners and some Hanchen with status scolded them, punched and kicked, and even killed and shed blood. ”

Ao Bai disagreed: "Those Han people, they know that they are making trouble, I am in the Qing Dynasty, but I don't rely on them to achieve great things, in my opinion, it will be good to take the lead in making trouble, catch a few, kill a few, and naturally be fine......

Sizhen sank his face: "Lord Ao forgot, although our family is a courtier of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, they are also Han people, how can you generalize and indiscriminately push all those people into the chaos?" In this way, wouldn't it be a lawsuit to force the people to rebel, is it possible, have you forgotten the lesson of last year because you want to repair the emperor's mausoleum, and increase the training salary? ”

Ao Bai raised his eyebrows and suppressed his anger: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, women are not allowed to interfere in politics, and the matter of sending salaries was not stopped under the advice of Wei Yijie, the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and it didn't have much impact in a short period of time." ”

"Although I am a woman, I am a woman who is in charge of the affairs of the king, and the Empress Dowager still wants me to learn the theory of military strategy and politics, is it possible, Lord Ao is more knowledgeable than the Empress Dowager?" Sizhen smiled and said, "The matter of increasing the salary is because it stopped, so it did not cause a big chaos, presumably Lord Ao also knew about this matter After Lord Wei gave advice, the household department made a quick punishment and told the people all over the world, so that the small people in the world knew that Lord Wei's action of daring to speak out about the disadvantages of the times not only won the praise of the people, but also everyone praised the people for stopping the increase in the salary training, don't you want to stay like Lord Wei for a hundred years?" ”

"As long as I am prosperous in the Qing Dynasty, Ao's exploits will be commented on by future generations, how can I be like a shallow person who only cares about the gains and losses in front of me in order to sell my fame and reputation?"

Ao Bai Zhenzhen said, "As an auxiliary minister, Ao Mou is thinking about the eternal foundation of my Qing Dynasty, how can he change the plan of the imperial court because the interests of a few people have been lost?" …… The princess should not be bewitched by that villain, listen to the rumors, those are all stories made up by the talented people who only eat and don't work, they are under the guise of asking for the people's lives, nothing more than to win a clear name, hum, a group of people who deceive the world and steal their reputation, how can it be done! ”

He looked at Sizhen and showed a threat on his face: "The matter of enclosure is the foundation of my Qing Dynasty, I think that after I entered the capital of Beijing in the Qing Dynasty, in order to solve the livelihood of the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners, Shunzhi Ye issued this enclosure order, and all the ownerless wasteland of the Han people in various states and counties in Beijing was encircled and distributed to the kings and soldiers of the east, so the Han people were attached to the nobles of my Manchu Eight Banners, and some Han landlords also brought land to fill in order to seek political protection, so that not only supplemented the strong Ding team of the Qing Dynasty, but also made those Han people lose their roots, and no longer think about the former Ming, After the land was occupied, the nobles, officials, and soldiers of the Eight Banners were given a different amount of land according to their respective status and the number of strong men they belonged to, which was also more central to the imperial court...... Such a thing, how to listen to what the princess said, it seems that Shunzhi Ye did something wrong. ”

Being buttoned down by such a big hat as Aobai, Sizhen was a little helpless, she muttered for a moment and said: "At this time and that time, now my Qing Dynasty has been in the customs for nearly 20 years, and the situation is different from that year, I think, even if Shunzhi is alive, he will not let it go, the matter of enclosure, since the fourth year of Shunzhi, has not been implemented on a large scale......"

After a pause, Sizhen's words gradually became sonorous: "But at the end of last year, it happened repeatedly in the suburbs of the capital, the nobles and lords fought with the people for property, the people had no permanent property, and they all relied on renting flag land for a living, they lost their land, were displaced, and lived miserably, so that 'the displaced people fled south, and there were parents and husbands and wives who died by hanging; There are those who first vote for their children in the river and then vote for themselves; There are those who have gained hundreds of dollars, and sell their sons; There are those who scrape the bark and pick the roots of the grass and eat them; As for the tragic incident of the zombie servant on the side of the road, for the eater of the black kite and jackal, and he does not know its geometry, as an auxiliary minister, does Lord Ao feel sad when he hears these things? ”

"The safety of people's livelihood lies in the turbidity of the rule of officials. The turbidity of the rulers is all in the supervision. As long as the officials are clear, the officials abide by the edicts, clean themselves and love the people, reward the honest and eliminate the poor, and promote the good and eliminate the harm, the national government and the people's feelings in the Qing Dynasty will naturally be leveled. What does that enclosure have to do with it? Ao Bai swept around the people who listened dumbfounded and listened to Sizhen arguing with him, and smiled coldly: "The kindness of a woman is difficult to achieve a big thing!" ”

Sizhen's face was angry.

Sun Bao on the side hurriedly made peace with the mud: "The princess and Lord Ao may have some different opinions, but in fact, they are both for the court, why quarrel over this matter?" Lord Ao, it's just that we in the Confucian family, there are two Zhuangzi who have been circled by your cousin Ban Bushan, and I still hope that Lord Ao will be around. ”

Ao Bai snorted: "It's easy to say, although my cousin is a scholar of the Secretarial Academy, the minister of the guard and the minister of the study, and participates in the discussion of politics, but this enclosure is encircled on the Zhuangzi of Kong's family, which is really inappropriate, and I don't know the inside story if I want to come to my cousin, it must be the indulgence of the house slaves who fight with people, and when I tell him another day, I will return the two Zhuangzi." ”

He looked at Sizhen with a sarcastic look on his face: "It turns out that the princess has gone around in such a big circle, just to say those two Zhuangzi?" Actually, why do you bother going around in circles like this, just say it. ”

Sizhen is to ask for the two Zhuangzi, and Ao Bai to talk about the harm of enclosure, is to hope to be able to change some of the old disadvantages at the beginning of the new monarch, because at the beginning of the four auxiliary governments, they made the removal of the internal officials thirteen yamen, "the internal officials will never be used", check the affairs of the officials, etc., for the court to avoid eunuchs to interfere in politics, rectify the corruption of the officials to clear the way, can be said to be quite far-sighted, although she does not like the arrogance of Aobai, but also thinks that this person has great talent, so I want to know the pros and cons to him, the enclosure matter completely stopped......

But after this confrontation, she found that although Ao Bai was outstanding in military achievements, brave and good at fighting, and was a good hand at galloping across the battlefield and charging into battle, he was stubborn and self-serving, and he was full of light men, as long as he touched the vital interests of the banner people and endangered the dominance of the Manchurian aristocracy, he changed his face......

Sizhen was deeply disappointed, and there was a sense that the Tao was different and did not conspire with each other.

Hearing Ao Bai's sarcastic words, Sizhen smiled faintly: "Xia Worm can't talk about ice, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me and Lord Ao to reach a consensus." However, I can write down what Lord Ao said today to return the two Zhuangzi of the Confucian family, and I thank Lord Ao here first. ”

"The princess is gracious. After talking about your side, can you take a step to talk about what Ao wants? ”

Sizhen has lost interest in being with him, "Lord Ao, there is nothing to say to people, if there is anything, you can say it here." ”

"Ao wants to borrow someone from Dingfan, and I hope the princess will allow it."

"Oh? Although the Dingfan is a feudal territory, it is still the territory of the imperial court, who is used, you and the line are all said hello, not to mention the transfer to use, what to talk about borrowing or not borrowing? "Hearing what Aobai said, Sizhen was surprised.

"This person is the princess's clothed minion, and without your permission, even the capital can't arrange him."

"Lord Ao is talking about ......"

Ao Bai smiled slightly: "Dai Liangchen, someone wants to ask the princess to borrow this person is called Dai Liangchen, he is your family's coat and collar, quite talented, and I want to use it greatly, so someone wants to borrow him." ”

"May I ask Lord Ao what is the use of borrowing him? After all, he is the coat of our Kong family, and if he does that illegal thing, it will not matter what my Kong family's face is. Sizhen asked.

Hearing Sizhen say this, Ao Bai showed displeasure: "Ao is a minister of the auxiliary government, how can he be allowed to do something illegal?" It's just because he is familiar with the land in Guangxi, and he is a talented person, and there is something right now, he has to do it, so he opened this mouth with the princess, if you don't want to, Ao Mou will find someone else. ”

Si Zhen didn't believe his rhetoric of retreating as advance, if other people also succeeded, why did Ao Bai come to her house to borrow someone? Thinking of Sun Yanling's transfer to the outer city to patrol the defense, Sizhen vaguely felt that the two things were somewhat related, but he couldn't say the truth.

But at the moment, she didn't want to offend Ao Bai, who was in the limelight, and nodded at the moment and said: "With Lord Ao as a guarantee, of course it's better, I will lend this person to you, and I will go to the Ministry of Officials tomorrow to prepare for the bottom, and I will write another letter to him, if you have anything, arrange it for him directly." ”

Ao Bai listened to Sizhen's tone, and knew that if he was not in the ministry, he would not be able to borrow it, and thought that the ministry was in charge of himself, so he nodded and thanked: "In this way, Princess Lao will quickly write the letter, and after preparing the bottom tomorrow, it will be sent to Guangxi as soon as possible." ”

Are you so anxious? Sizhen had the heart to listen to one or two, but Ao Bai refused to reveal a word under the pretext of military secrets.

Seeing that Si and Ao Bai had finished talking, Sun Bao on the side said: "It's not early, why don't you have dinner at home at noon this morning?" ”
