Chapter 255: Fog Lock Jingshi
The dispute over the ownership of the Eight Banners firm can be said to be a war without gunpowder, other brothers can not win, but Yinzuo can't afford to lose, the reason is very simple, most of the assets of the Eight Banners firm are from Yinzuo, if one accidentally falls into the hands of other brothers, Yinzuo will definitely have no good fruit to eat; If the operation of the Eight Banners firm is unfavorable and the problem of the Eight Banners cannot be solved, Yinzuo will also have a hard time; But the other elder brothers are different, anyway, the things are not taken out by themselves, and it is a big profit if they can get it, even if they can't get it, as long as the Eight Banners business is not under Yinzuo's control, it is an acceptable situation, at least it is a result of not losing or winning.
The brothers have their own intelligence system, while Yinzuo is monitoring the brothers, the big guys are also closely monitoring Yinzuo's every move, at this moment, any wind and grass in the Yinzuo Mansion can cause the big guys to attach great importance to it, Yinzuo will meet Yinzuo, and the banquet of the Zongren Mansion Zong Ling Old Prince Jian is naturally impossible to hide from everyone, but what Yinzuo talked about with these two, except for the parties involved, no one can know a rough idea, so the wolf smoke in the Beijing division is everywhere, and various versions of rumors are spreading, It's very lively.
Yinzuo's meeting with Yinxi, the big guy can still guess a rough idea, it must be related to the Eight Banners firm, there are dozens of versions of the gossip about this meeting in Jingshi alone, but in general, it is rumored that Yinzuo supports Yinzuo's head of the Eight Banners firm, needless to say, these rumors basically come from the Lianjun Palace. The officialdom of the Beijing division knows that Yinzuo and the Yinzuo brothers have never been on the right path, but what is strange is that such rumors have not seen Yinzuo's people come out to refute the rumors, which can't help but make people a little reverie, after all, these brothers have never acted according to the card, and it is common for the time to coincide, coupled with the secret promotion of the old eighty-one gang, such rumors are even more noisy, and the more they spread, the more true they are, the undercurrent of the Beijing officialdom is surging extremely turbulent, and there are still two days before the court meeting. The signing room is full of folds of Bao Juyin, and the number is jaw-dropping.
Yinzuo's banquet to invite Prince Jian of Zongren Mansion is extremely weird, not to mention the brothers, even the ordinary courtiers, no one has put such a chicken rib institution in the Zongren Mansion in their eyes, at such a juncture, Yinzuo does not contact the brothers and does not visit the important ministers of the court to seek support, but he still has the leisure to invite such a useless old guy as Prince Jian to drink, which is inevitably very surprising, and what is even more strange is that these two parties are closed to the guests, and no one is seen, Many of the banner nobles who came to the door to try to find out were all closed, but some people got an interesting news from the mouth of Prince Yi's palace who "didn't have a strict mouth" - isn't there still a vacant seat in Prince Yi's side Fujin? His old man is thinking about accepting a side Fujin, it is said that he has taken a fancy to the daughter of a certain Dutong, and is begging the old Prince Jian to come forward to protect the media, as for this "a certain Dutong" There are several different versions, and the Dutong family involved in the rumors for a while are a little happy and apprehensive, happy to be able to climb such a high branch of Yinzuo, then the future days will be better, I am worried that I don't know if this news is reliable, for fear that it will be empty joy, I have the heart to come to the door to verify but I can't enter, but it also makes those people itch and scratch.
At this extraordinary time, of course, there are a lot of strange rumors in the Jingshi, and there are many rumors about Prince Cheng Yinzhi and Yongjun Wang Yinzhen, these rumors are also very interesting - it is generally said that Prince Cheng Yinzhi and Yongjun Wang Yinzhen colluded with each other to seek control of the Eight Banners firm, one version said that if they could not control the firm, they would join forces to establish the Eight Banners firm in the court, and the rumors even pointed out that the two princes united those courtiers and other examples; Another version is that Prince Cheng is purely stupid, and he is used by Yongjun Wang Yinzhen and does not know, saying that Prince Cheng is a stupid scholar, how can he have the ability to be in charge of the Eight Banners firm, but he is just making a wedding dress for people, and also said that Yongjun Wang Yinzhen is insidious and cunning, hiding behind his back and putting dark arrows, he would rather destroy the Eight Banners than let the banner people live a good life.
These two versions of the rumors are said to have noses and eyes, and they immediately angered the gang of Ziqi people, you must know that the establishment of the Eight Banners business means that the old and young masters can take a lot of silver every year, and with the virtue of the old and young masters of the Eight Banners, how can they tolerate someone to sabotage this, so, under the instigation of people with a heart, many anxious gentlemen went to the two princes' mansions in groups to protest, and they were stunned to disturb the peace of the two elder brothers' mansions, but they really couldn't take those old and young masters- I can't beat it, it's useless to scold, I have no choice but to be patient and let the people in the house continue to come forward to clarify and explain, but there are some things that can be explained clearly for a while, the third and fourth brothers are stunned and tortured enough, knowing that these true and false news are either Yinzuo or the eighth deliberately released, but there is no way, in desperation, the two of them can only come forward to clarify the "facts", while stepping up their own preparations, for a while inevitably a little embarrassed.
Rumors stop at the wise? Hey, that's true, but the problem is that the vast majority of flag people are just mortals, there is a good saying: the people are the most gullible people, from ancient times to the present public opinion has always been swayed by the wise rulers, how many evils are done under the guise of public opinion, I am afraid that no one will ever be able to say clearly. The third and fourth busy embarrassed looks will naturally be fed back to Yinzuo, and Yinzuo will be happy enough when he lands, but he is happy, Yinzuo is also secretly vigilant in his heart about the power of the old Bayi gang - some of those rumors were released by Yinzuo, and some were spread by the old Bayi gang, but it was the subordinates of the old Bayi gang who organized people to go to the third and fourth houses to make trouble, it was obvious that the old Bayi gang was planning and then acting, and all this escaped the surveillance of the "Honghu" and "Dark Arrow", It can be seen that the old Bayi gang must have reorganized the intelligence system in their hands, and the 'Junling', which was beaten once by Yinzuo, has become an ornament on the surface. Although it is very important to figure out the hidden power in the hands of Lao Bayi and his gang, there is no time to take care of it at the moment, and Yinzuo can only let the "Honghu" and "Hidden Arrow" strengthen surveillance and investigation, as for how to deal with it or in the future, it is useless to be in a hurry at this time.
On the first day of the third month of the forty-third year of Kangxi, Ming'er was going to be early, and the big guys were holding back their strength to compete for a good time in the court meeting, to see if they could get the big pie of the Eight Banners into their arms, even if they couldn't, they wanted to think about whether they could get some benefits from it. The brothers and courtiers were busy enough, and in the inner courtyard of the palace, the old man Kangxi was not idle, it was almost time to hold the lamp, but the old man still didn't go to dinner, but just asked the eunuchs to send some pastries to cushion his stomach, and the minister of the study on a pole was also discussing the matter of the Eight Banners business that would be discussed by the court early in the morning.
Ma Qi, as the chief minister of the upper study, and the minister on duty today, naturally has to report the overall situation of the collation of the past few days: "Holy Lord, in the past four days, a total of more than 300 courtiers have put on the script, of which there are 307 people in favor of the establishment of the Eight Banners firm, 28 people are against it, and among those who are in favor, there are 160 people in favor of Prince Baoju Lian in charge of the Eight Banners Firm, 35 people in favor of Prince Baoju Yi, 81 people in Prince Baoju Cheng, 10 people in Baoju Yongjun Wang, and 2 in each of the remaining elder brothers. Three copies of capital guaranteed. ”
"Hmm." The old man Kangxi nodded noncommittally, looked at Ma Qi and said, "I'm a little curious, who is Ma Aiqing protecting?" ”
"The minister doesn't protect anyone, the minister thinks that the matter of the Eight Banners business is important, no matter who is in charge, it is a bit overstepping, and the minister thinks that this business should be included in the imperial court organization, rather than letting the brothers be in charge." Marzi knelt on the ground and said loudly.
As soon as Ma Qi's words fell, Zhang Tingyu and the other ministers of the study all knelt down and said in unison: "The ministers think that Master Ma's words are reasonable, please enlighten the saint." ”
Although the old man Kangxi is in the deep palace, but the farce outside can't hide from his ears and eyes, but he knows the rumors that have been boiling outside, and he is naturally clear about the importance of the Eight Banners firm, and the establishment of the Eight Banners firm is a matter of course, but he has not yet come up with an accurate idea of how to set up the Eight Banners firm. In the past few days, although the old man has never asked about the Eight Banners firm, but he has never stopped thinking in his own heart, seeing that Ming'er is the early court discussion, but also wants to hear the opinions of these ministers in the study, at this moment, seeing that everyone agrees to include the Eight Banners firm into the imperial court mechanism, it is also in line with his original idea, smiled and then asked: "Oh? In the opinion of Na Yi'er and others, should the Eight Banners firm be classified into that yamen? ”
This is a bit of a heart-wrenching question, the big guy who doesn't know what kind of demon moths those brothers are making a fuss, the words answered by the old man here didn't take long to reach the ears of the elder brother, no one can touch which cloud will rain, in case you answer the wrong word, it will definitely offend people, if it happens that the master ascended the throne, remembered this matter, the unlucky one is not himself, but the old man has already opened his mouth to ask, the big guy does not answer is not good, helpless, a group of ministers in the study replied with the singing: "All respectfully ask for the Holy Judge, There was no objection from the ministers. ”
The old man originally wanted to ask these important ministers because he didn't know the bottom of his heart, but he didn't expect the ball to kick back to his feet, the old man Kangxi had a tight chest for a while, his face turned pale, and he almost attacked everyone, but at the end he still sighed, waved his hand and said: "I'm a little tired, just wait for you to kneel down." As soon as the words fell, he walked out of the room on his own, leaving only a room full of ministers who were at a loss.
