Chapter Forty-Eight: Master

"The powder face is full of spring and is not revealed, and the red lips are not smiling first", Mo Jing didn't understand why an image of Wang Xifeng suddenly appeared in his head after seeing Gao Shiqi, could it be that Gao Shiqi gave himself the impression that he was kind on the outside like Wang Xifeng, but fierce on the inside? However, it seems that there is no need to think about this now, looking at the Gao Xiangye who walked towards her with a spring breeze on her face, Mo Jing already understood something in her heart, so she could take the time to think about the "hatred" of being betrayed.

……

"Gao Xiang, when you see the county lord, should you kowtow first?"

“……”

Gao Shiqi's cheerful pace was suddenly interrupted by a stumble, his face was more like swallowing a toad, and the laughter that had just been raised stopped abruptly! Just a sentence flashed in my mind from time to time: "June debt, pay it quickly!" ”

And without waiting for Gao Shiqi to react, Mo Jing gave him another smile, but there was not much warmth in this smile, but there were a lot of swords, guns, swords, and halberds. …… At this time, Mo Jing really hoped that his eyes could kill people...... If you can't kill someone, you can hurt someone.

"Gege said and laughed," Gao Shiqi laughed dryly, turned his head to look at Mo Jing's room, barely avoided this embarrassment, and pulled Zhang Tingyu who was following him, and introduced to Mo Jing: "Gege, this is Zhang Tingyu Zhang, the new minister of the study." ”

"You are Zhang Tingyu?" Unexpectedly, it was one of the four prime ministers of the dynasty who interrogated herself, Mo Jing secretly said that Kangxi really gave himself face, but she still had a good impression of the person who was already in the position of Zaifu at this young age, and reminded her with her eyes in the "court", and immediately blessed Zhang Tingyu to show her courtesy.

"Xia Guan has seen Jing Gege." Zhang Tingyu also bowed to Mo Jing seriously and said.

"The two adults are here to tell me what the emperor plans to do with me?" Stretching out her head and stabbing her head, Mo Jing's mood had sunk to the bottom after she arrived at the Shen Criminal Division, but Zhang Tingyu's presiding judge was not very severe, especially when he reminded her with his eyes, which gave her hope again, and those Goshha did not take her to the cell, but to this room, which also made her more sure that she was not so unlucky, and now seeing Gao Shiqi and Zhang Tingyu coming, her mood has been very stable...... Do you still need two prime ministers to deal with her? Therefore, based on this idea, she became bold again, and she was not afraid of taboos when asking questions.

"Disposition? Yes, it's disposal! This one...... Lord Doro listened to the order! Gao Shiqi suddenly said loudly.

“…… Listening? "Damn, I haven't let you kneel yet, you actually let Miss Ben kneel first, good you Gao Shiqi, we can be regarded as a feud! Mo Jing had a secret hatred in his heart, but he had to kneel down in front of Gao Shiqi. …… The evil feudal system! When he knelt down, Mo Jing added this sentence in his heart.

"The noble concubine Tushetu Baori Longmei has been feeling cold and depressed recently, and I am very worried, and now I have specially ordered Mo Jing, the county lord of Doro, to enter the palace to serve him, in order to comfort his heart, admire this!"

“……”

"Gege, the leader!" Gao Shiqi screamed.

"Huh? …… Oh! Mo Jing led the grateful. ”…… Kowtowed, and stood up again, a layer of fine sweat appeared on Mo Yan's head, but he felt very refreshed, okay?! Although she had already thought of it, she still felt a sense of relief that she had never felt before.

"Gege, a sedan chair has been prepared outside, and this will send you into the palace." Zhang Tingyu arched his hand and walked to the door to lead Mo Jing.

"Thank you." Mo Jing was sincerely grateful to Zhang Tingyu, and then, without looking at Gao Shiqi, he walked out.

"This isn't the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is it? Otherwise, the two adults shouldn't be able to get in! After walking a few steps, Mo Jing asked Zhang Tingyu again.

"Gege is really smart, but this is indeed the Internal Affairs Office, and the lower officials and the high lord are allowed to temporarily use the hall of the Punishment Division because they have the emperor's order!" Zhang Tingyu replied.

"Oh!" Mo Jing answered, and then stopped talking.

Although the Internal Affairs Office is not small, and the Criminal Punishment Division is also behind the Internal Affairs Office, Mo Jing and his party are the back door to go, so they quickly walked out.

"Gege, there are rules in the palace, after entering and returning, you should be careful." Seeing Mo Jing sitting in the sedan chair and not yet starting, Gao Shiqi suddenly said to Mo Jing through the window of the sedan chair, and at the same time, Mo Jing found that in the sleeve where Gao Shiqi was leaning against the edge of the window, a paper ball fell out and fell into the sedan chair.

Then, get up the sedan car and move forward.

********

Watching Mo Jing's sedan chair gradually move away, Zhang Tingyu also arched his hand to Gao Shiqi and prepared to leave. At this time, Gao Shiqi grabbed him and said, "Tingyu, how about accompanying me for a drink?" ”

"Gao Xiang is joking, you know I've never drunk a drop of alcohol." Zhang Tingyu refused.

"Tea then?"

"Gao Xiang," Zhang Tingyu gave Gao Shiqi a rare smile, "If you have something, just say it, you don't have to be like this." ”

"Okay, Tingyu, it's really refreshing." Gao Shiqi looked around, and asked Zhang Tingyu in a low voice: "Tingyu, it's not your character to intercede, especially Mo Jing is a woman and has no friendship with you, why do you want to say good things for her in front of the emperor?" ”

"Didn't Gao Xiang also say good things for her?" Zhang Tingyu asked rhetorically.

"Tingyu, your intelligence is not inferior to mine, don't you know why I said that? On the contrary, you have always been able to do everything without interfering, but this time, it helps so obviously, why is it? ”

"Gao Xiang, can't you see why I did this?" Zhang Tingyu asked.

"I guessed a little, but I didn't dare to say it completely, Tingyu, do you still want to hide it from me?" Since the last time Zhang Tingyu explained to Gao Shiqi the way of being an official in the study, although the two still do not communicate with each other and do not say a few words on weekdays, the relationship between them is much closer, so Gao Shiqi said this to Zhang Tingyu.

"High phase ...... The four ministers of the upper study, Suo Tong and the two are Manchurians, and you and I are both Han, however, according to you, who does the emperor trust more? Hearing Gao Shiqi say this, Zhang Tingyu couldn't hide it anymore, not to mention that he didn't need to hide it for people like Gao Shiqi, so he said it very directly.

"This ...... This has nothing to do with Mo Jing's incident, right? ”

"Gao Xiang, is it really irrelevant? If Mo Jing is not guilty, no one will leak the matter, at most, the matter will be circulated among several people in Manchuria; And if Mo Jing is guilty, her four companions will definitely not give up, this matter will spread at that time, how can Suo Tong and the others not be blushing at the holy favor you and I have received, Gao Xiang, you are a difficult time, I am just a new junior, how can I deal with these two royal relatives? What's more, the emperor has no intention of blaming that Mo Yan, even though I am the presiding judge, how dare I go against the holy will? ”

"Yes, at this time when the western expedition is imminent, the emperor does not want to have disputes with the big northern country again, otherwise, the country does not know when it will be peaceful, and the military salary will be extravagant! Besides, when the two countries negotiate, they naturally know that the more hole cards the other party has, the better, although Mo Jing is a woman, she is the only person on our side who knows about Russian affairs, hehe, she is not like the kind of person who will repay grievances with virtue! If she is condemned, the emperor will not want to know anything from her. ”

"Actually, there is another reason why the lower official spoke for Na Mo Yan!" Zhang Tingyu said again.

"Listen up!" Gao Shiqi knew that Zhang Tingyu had always cherished words like gold, and since he wanted to say more at this moment, it must be a very important thing, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off.

"Mo Jing and the other five, you have seen Gao Xiang, how did you feel?" Zhang Tingyu didn't say it directly, but asked Gao Shiqi a question.

"This ...... That Luo Xin is a little sharp, and in recent days, he feels that this Mo Jing is indeed a little smart, but it is still the same sentence, too uncomposed, and ill-thought-prone! Just like this time, she came to the capital right, but if she went directly to the Zongren Mansion to find someone to ask to enter the palace, nothing would happen, but she found me instead......"

“…… Yes, this Mo Jing is indeed not calm enough, however, that Ferdinand is different. Zhang Tingyu said slowly: "I still say the same thing, if there is no Prince Jian who is deliberately an enemy, when we notice him, I am afraid it will not be the current situation!" …… How many barren places are there in Manchuria? Even if rice can't be grown, there are other grains to grow. At that time, he only had to choose a famine year and ship a large amount of grain to Dagukou or Shandong and other places via Bohai in a few days...... Who would dare to object? At that time, above the second grade, the emperor can only be rewarded for his merits if he is allowed to be a feudal official, a secretary of the six ministries or the head of the internal affairs office! ”

"There are few people in Manchuria, how can we grow more food?"

"One word: 'Lead'! …… In my opinion, Ferdinand is by no means boasting, he must be able to find enough manpower. Zhang Tingyu affirmed.

"......" Although Zhang Tingyu is young, Gao Shiqi knows that he is by no means the kind of alarmist, and he is very accurate in looking at things and people, since he said so, then there will not be much mistake. …… It seems that Ferdinand is the real spicy character, the real master.

"Tingyu, do you have anything to say?" After thinking for a while, Gao Shiqi asked Zhang Tingyu again.

"Gao Xiang, you forgot? A few days ago, the emperor demoted Ferdinand to Fengtianfu Yin. Zhang Tingyu said.

“…… Yes, it's true, although the deputy capital is expensive, but he has no real power, far from being comparable to Fengtianfu Yin, it seems that although the emperor said on the surface that he would not change the edict of Taizu, he still intended to let Ferdinand stretch out his hand. Gao Shiqi was stunned.

"Yes, the emperor has eaten too much food and not enough salary! At the time of the pacification of the three feudatories, the imperial court and the rebels of the three feudatories were robbing the people, and some of the civil affairs left behind are still giving the imperial court a headache; Now it will take several years to raise Pingyi Geerdan, but Geerdan's strength has become stronger and stronger in the past few years, so that the emperor has more and more soldiers and horses to mobilize and more food and salary...... This is like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and it is the imperial court that suffers, and it is the emperor who works hard and worries about it; Fortunately, there have not been many natural and man-made disasters in the past few years, otherwise ......" Zhang Tingyu shook his head and didn't say any more.

"I see! Thank you Tingyu for another warning! Gao Shiqi bowed deeply to Zhang Tingyu, just like Zhang Tingyu reminded him once, "Ten thousand words are better than one silence", he still thanked Zhang Tingyu very sincerely this time...... Ferdinand has already grabbed the itch in Kangxi's heart, and he is a Manchurian identity, he will definitely be a great character in the future, if Mo Jing is convicted this time, then, he Gao Shiqi and Zhang Tingyu are equivalent to forming a deep enmity with such a character, and the capable Manchu is easy to be an official, and to be a big official, and in the Qing Dynasty, the strength of the Manchu ministers will always be stronger than the Han officials, at that time, if Ferdinand wants to take revenge, he Gao Shiqi and Zhang Tingyu will be in trouble, and as a person who "betrayed" Mo Jing, He Gao Shiqi will definitely have more fun.

"Don't dare, there is still something at home, Gao Xiang, leave for the time being." Seeing Gao Shiqi saluting, Zhang Tingyu didn't have any expression, just arched his hand and said.

"Well, take your leave."

Without further ado, the two parted ways!

**********

"In the past, there were four Hao Lao people in Wei Dongting's mansion, and the relationship with Wei was still more than Wu Dan, and he also fought to the death when he captured Aobai, but after he captured Aobai, the saint did not award it, and killed it! Because of his secret surrender to the dead party Ban Bushan, he was learned by the secret agents in Wei Dongting's mansion and reported to the emperor. This secret agent, the one who supervises Wei in the Holy Place! ”

Mo Jing looked at the note in his hand and was secretly frightened!

No wonder Gao Shiqi would tell Kangxi, it turned out that he was afraid that Kangxi would know that he would cause a big disaster for his secret news!

Think about it, as an emperor, what he hates most is that the courtiers are clever in front of him, and he wants to seek refuge through Gao Shiqi entering the palace to see Baori Longmei, even if he can enter the palace, he will definitely be known by Kangxi, and of course Kangxi will not believe that he met Baori Longmei in the Yellow Temple, as long as he checks it out, even if Kangxi does not plant any spies in Gao Shiqi's mansion, he can also find out who passed the letter for himself, at that time, he was guilty, and he had no strength in the court. Gao Shiqi, who relied on Kangxi's trust to maintain his position, is even worse!

"Since you have a hard time, I don't blame you for informing, but if you make me kneel, we still have to remember this hatred." Mo Yan said secretly.

"Who is in front, Concubine Hui Niang Niangluan is here, immediately dodge!" Just when Mo Jing was thinking about how to make Gao Shiqiduo kowtow to her twice, the sedan chair she was riding in suddenly shook, and then, after a whip, she fell to the ground!
