On the morning of the second day, when Kangxi mentioned the Hebei River Works, the prince really stood up and recommended the eighth master for the first time.

The reason why he has this proposal is actually also considered.

As a child who was raised by Kangxi himself since he was a child, the prince's understanding of Kangxi's heart is not bad.

Among today's princes, he and the eldest brother are secretly as powerful as fire and water. Kangxi also knows this. However, his affection for both sons was deep. One was his first surviving child, and the other was a child who was personally raised since childhood. In his heart, he hoped that the two could live in harmony. Even though the two had always been fighting, he wanted to maintain a balance.

So this is the reason why the last time I went to Fujian, the sailor did not send the big brother. It's because he has enough military exploits. As the king of his county, if he continues to have a higher prestige in the army, it will be a threat to the crown prince.

In the same way, Kangxi will not consider the prince for this errand of the river work.

In fact, the most suitable candidate is the fourth master! Not only because he is calm, but also because he has experience in this area. But the fourth master has just returned from Fujian, made military exploits, and was crowned the king of the county, so it is really inappropriate to send him a big errand again.

The fifth master and the seventh master can't get into Kangxi's eyes at this time. And although the third master has the intention to do a bad job, he has been snubbed by Kangxi for several years, and he will not be given a chance at all. Further down, there are the eighth, ninth and tenth masters.

The Tenth Master had just returned from the battlefield, and the injuries on his body were just right, so it was obviously impossible to send them out.

As for the ninth master, he has never done a decent errand since he entered the court. If such an important matter as Hegong is handed over to him, let alone Kangxi, even the courtiers will not agree.

So in this way, the eighth master is really the best candidate!

Of course, the crown prince can actually be chosen from among his own people. But he still decided to push the eighth master to the front.

Sure enough, as soon as he recommended it, many courtiers echoed it.

The prince stood beside Kangxi and looked at the courtiers who stood up one by one below, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.

The eighth master didn't say anything, but quietly glanced at the fourth master standing beside him out of the corner of his eye.

After a while, after the courtiers finished speaking, before Kangxi was about to speak, the fourth master stood up.

"Huang Ama, the son feels that the eighth brother is not qualified for this errand alone."

"Oh?" Kangxi paused for a moment and said lightly: "You tell me the reason!" ”

"This matter is very important, although the eighth brother is thoughtful, but after all, it is the first time to contact this matter. Erchen felt that it was better to send someone to handle it together. "The fourth master is not in a hurry.

He seldom disagreed with the crown prince at court. Thinking of him being crowned the king of the county, the eyes of many courtiers also changed.

The prince was equally surprised. He thought that the eighth master might take the opportunity to say something. But it was the fourth master who didn't want to stand up!

Of course, Erchen is just a suggestion, not a denial of the eighth brother's ability. The matter of river work is complex and important, and Huang Ama is also requested to consider it carefully. The fourth master said again.

He made everyone feel that he was really talking about things, not to oppose the prince or have an opinion on the eighth master.

Often a simple sentence in the court will be reminiscent of Pianpiao. The fourth master is well versed in this. Of course, I know how to help the eighth master and leave myself alone.

Kangxi pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "What you say is reasonable." It coincides with my thoughts. ”

The heart that the eighth master was carrying suddenly relaxed. A hint of gloom flashed in the prince's eyes.

So everyone began to discuss who to send with the eighth master. In the end, it was decided that the Ministry of Works, Fu Ling'a, was decided. After all, the Ministry of Engineering has always been responsible for the affairs of river workers. As a waiter in the Ministry of Works, he knows the most about this. With him going with the eighth master, he can also have a discussion and suggestion in case of trouble.

After the next dynasty, the prince was left behind by Kangxi. The eighth master and the fourth master went out of the Qianqing Palace together, and the two were about to speak, when a voice came from behind them.

"Eight masters, stay behind!"

The eighth master looked back and saw that it was Fu Ling, the waiter of the Ministry of Works.

"The minister has something he wants to discuss with the eighth master." Fulinga laughed.

"Okay." The eighth master did not refuse. After all, in the next month or two, the two of them will have to deal with each other together.

Speaking of which, the eighth master has not had much contact with the Ministry of Industry before, and he is not very familiar with the officials of the Ministry of Industry. But this Fulim has an impression. Guy Mao Tongtong's cousin Chen Ruzhu is their daughter-in-law!

"Go to my study. It just so happens that I have something to talk to adults. The eighth master said again.

"Eighth brother, I'm going to say goodbye to Eniang, so I won't leave the palace with you." The fourth master said.

The eighth master nodded, and after parting ways with the fourth master, he went out of the palace with Fu Ling'a.

In fact, all he wants to say is the current situation of the Yellow River section of Hebei Province, and the reason why the construction of dikes and reservoirs is being proposed now. There are also some preparations made by the Ministry of Industry in the early stage and so on.

To put it bluntly, a large part of the role of the eighth master this time is to be a supervisor.

With such a large project, it is easy to have quality and corruption problems. If a prince goes, it can also play a deterrent role.

The two talked for a long time in the study. After all, the eighth master is the first time to come into contact with this kind of errand, so there are many problems. Naturally, Fu Linga did not dare to say anything in detail. So the two of you asked me to answer, and they talked for an hour! The eighth master has a basic understanding of this errand.

"Thank you, sir." The eighth master nodded with satisfaction.

"This is what a minister should do. Lord Belle understood clearly in advance, and when we went to Hebei, we could start doing errands faster. "Blessed Spirit.

The eighth master still likes this kind of serious errand person. Because partnering with this kind of person will get twice the result with half the effort, and he can also be more relaxed.

"It's not too early, so you'll have lunch with me today."

"Huh? No, it's not very convenient. Fringing was a little flustered.

In fact, it was the first time he had dealt with the eighth master. Besides, he's not a sociable person. If it weren't for the errand involved, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to stop the eighth master today, and he would have come to the eighth master's mansion to say so many things.

The eighth master laughed and said, "What are you doing that adults are so afraid of?" Is it scary? ”

"No, no, no, no." Fu Ling hurriedly clarified: "Weichen, Weichen is just not good at words. ”

"I think what the adults just said is very good." Eight Masters said.

Fu Ling's face was at a loss, and he didn't know what to say.

"Actually, adults and I also have some connections." The eighth master said again.

"Huh?" Fowlinga looked dazed.

The eighth master smiled and said nothing, and he didn't want to tease this honest man, so he said: "Since it is inconvenient for adults, then I will not force it to stay." There's a chance for another day. ”
