Chapter 342: Plan ahead

Generally speaking, Yongjun Wang Yinzhen is a very boring person and not a good woman; I don't like to go to the theater; nor alcoholic; He is not too greedy for money, at least on the surface; Taciturn, not very good at communicating, if you have a hobby, in addition to power, it is to play Go, as far as playing chess is concerned, there are quite a few genetics of the old man Kangxi, a hand of chess stinks boundless, and he always likes to play, and he has been defeated repeatedly, and he has not changed. Since he lost his household envoy in August of the forty-fourth year of Kangxi, Yinzhen has been studying behind closed doors, no longer going to the court and not interacting with courtiers, even with his brothers, he has no contact with his brothers, he hides at home and enjoys himself, he reads books and plays chess when he has nothing to do, and he has a good time, but the pain in his heart can only be tasted slowly.

At the end of October, the Jingshi was already a little cool, although there was no need for heavy equipment such as fur fur, but the line shirt and the like were indispensable, Yin Zhen, who was dressed in a moon-white satin covered with a silver fox skin vest, frowned, holding a white child in his hand, and his eyes were stunned to inspect the chessboard back and forth for a long time, and he was never able to fall off, most of the time, he had to smile bitterly and put the chess pieces back into the chess box, stretched out his hand to push away the chessboard, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "This king lost again, Mr. Tang played this chess well, this king was stunned that he had never won once, hehe, This king also worked this when he was young, how can he always not understand the essentials, but let Mr. see the smile, alas, speaking of which, I and other brothers are the sixth to play good chess, it is strange to say, I have never seen the sixth on this to boil, no one can beat him, really admire people. ”

Yinzhen is talking about chess, in fact, he is talking about the political situation, which can be concealed from the Wenjue monk and others who are watching the game on the sidelines, but he can't hide the clever Tang Guoming, but at this time when the political situation is about to be clear, Tang Guoming can't give birth to too good a way to comfort the frustrated Yinzhen, so he can only smile and say: "Lord Wang, the chess player is also a small way, but life is like chess, unpredictable, the first move is important, but it is not an absolute guarantee to win chess, but where there is a mistake, the first move becomes the second hand, this chess momentum has the possibility of a sharp turn, Until the final game falls, no one dares to win easily. ”

"Well, that's the case, it's just ......" Yinzhen shook his head with a wry smile, got up a little angrily, didn't say more, and silently walked around the back garden, all the henchmen knew that their prince was in a bad mood again, and no one dared to come forward to persuade more, so they could only wait for Yinzhen to calm down. Just when everyone was embarrassed, Gao Fu'er, the chief housekeeper of the palace, tiptoed into the garden, peeked at Yinzhen who was pacing silently, opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't have the courage to step forward to disturb, so he had to say to Tang Guoming, who was smiling and sitting on the stone chair: "Sir, the sixth master is here, just outside, look ......"

Tang Guoming frowned quickly, pressed the feather fan in his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, got up by himself, hurried a few steps, walked in front of Yinzhen, and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, the sixth master is here, and he is outside." ”

"Huh?" Yin Zhen raised his head from his contemplation and looked at Tang Guoming suspiciously, although he didn't speak, his eyes were full of inquiry. Tang Guoming didn't answer, but just shook his head, saying that he didn't know Yinzuo's intention.

"Hmm." Yin Zhen thought for a while and said: "Let's just say that this king is sick, and when this king is well, I will return to visit." ”

"Groundless wind may not be without a reason, the sixth master must have something to do here, the prince might as well see it, but if you can not say it, you can not say it." Tang Guoming's words meant to probe Yinzuo's tone and then make a decision, Yinzhen groaned slightly, nodded and said: "This king knows, hey, this king's sixth brother has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and this time it's about the time when the weasel gives the chicken a New Year's greeting, so let Gao Fuer open the middle door, and the king will change his clothes and go out to greet him." ”

Yinzuo's upper body was covered with a light blue silk coat with a lilac mink fur coat, light green trousers, black riding boots, and a closed folding fan, standing in front of the Yongjun Palace's inverted summer gate in a chic manner, listening to the flattery of Gao Fu'er and other people in the palace with a smile, but never said a word. These days, Yinzuo is actually very bitter in his heart, not for anything else, just thinking about how to explain to Wang Xifeng that his eldest brother may have suffered is a headache, not to mention that there are so many government affairs waiting for him to worry about, fortunately, there are a lot of talents to use under his hands, but in just two or three days, Li Ke's appointment order was opened, and now he finally got a bunch of government affairs done in a hurry, so he had a free time to go to the old fourth mansion.

To be honest, Yinzuo doesn't like the fourth child very much, and always thinks that the fourth child is a very boring person, and there is no common language, if there is anything in common, in addition to the same desire for power, there is only one left - they are all born to a mother, and in addition, the brothers are people on two roads at all. Yinzuo didn't want to come to see the fourth, but he had to come, if he wanted to bypass the fourth to meddle in the affairs of the grain road, it was not impossible to say, but the time would drag on for a long time, at least it was impossible to get it before the news of the defeat came, and once the news of the defeat spread, Yinzuo wanted to rectify the grain road again, and the fourth level was stuck first, therefore, Yinzuo didn't want to come anymore and had to come hard, but he was not sure whether he could settle the fourth with the chips in his hand. After all, the fourth child has been fooled by Yinzuo many times, and he has already learned to be obedient, and he may not be fooled again, but if he doesn't try, how will he know if he will succeed?

"The sixth brother is here." As soon as Yinzhen, who strode out of the door, saw Yinzuo, his cold face immediately squeezed out a smile, nodded his head, and said with a smile: "Sixth brother, are you a busy person worth it today?" Why do you have time to run my brother here? ”

Damn, this dead fourth, as soon as we meet, I can't finish with guns and sticks, hey, let's not care, you just can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour. Yinzuo smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, there is little government affairs today, and the younger brother has to get back to being free, stealing a lazy child, haha, it's easy to talk about the fourth brother, I haven't seen the fourth brother these days, I miss it, hey, the fourth brother is white and fat, and the little brother is envious." Yinzuo replied unceremoniously, which means that the fourth child is not busy if you want to, so you can only hide at home to raise fat.

Although Yinzuo said this with a smile, the thorn in the words was fiercely pierced on Yinzhen's death hole, and the smile on Yinzhen's face that was originally squeezed out suddenly froze, and his voice was slightly hoarse and said: "The sixth brother loves to tell jokes, hey, the fourth brother is just a mixture of ingredients waiting for death, since the sixth brother is here, just sit in the house." ”

"Cheng, it's been a long time since I've tasted the fourth brother's new tea, and now the little brother has drunk enough, and I have to pretend to take some away, haha......" As soon as Yinzuo's voice fell, the brothers looked at each other and laughed, as if they had heard some funny joke, so that the people standing on the side didn't know why, so they could only laugh stupidly, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious for a while.

"Sixth brother, open the skylight and say something bright, I'm afraid that the sixth brother will not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, just say anything directly, my brother can help, try my best." Yinzhen knew that Yinzuo's ability to go around the bend was clever, and he didn't want to compete with Yinzuo on this, so when people made tea, he simply said it directly.

Hey, Cheng, just say it straight, we don't bother to go around in circles with you, and there are a bunch of things waiting to be dealt with when we go back. Yinzuo didn't have much politeness, and said with a smile: "Refreshing, the fourth brother has always been a cheerful person, the younger brother admires it very much, well, it's not a big deal, ha, sixth brother, you also know, the younger brother has accepted some unsuccessful minions, willing to do it, but also willing to do it, can also work hard, it's just useless, I didn't help the little brother, and I have to help the little brother as the master to help me have a future, hey, look at this whole thing, oh, there is a slave named Li Wei under the little brother, hey, this kid doesn't know a few big words, but the work is still good, It's a pity, what about the little brother, I also value this person, thinking about whether to promote, promote, but it's not good to promote for no reason, if it's a person who is accused of cronyism, it's not good, so I thought about discussing it with the fourth brother, haha. ”

The brothers are all a lot of minions, and it is actually a very head-scratching thing to figure out who they are, but who Li Wei is Yinzhen knows, not for anything else, but Li Wei is now a famous actor in Sichuan officialdom, a whole thorn in the head, even the old man Kangxi has heard of the jokes about Li Wei, but the old man Kangxi's evaluation of this kid is not bad, just four words - solid and willing to work. At this time, he heard Yinzuo mention Li Wei, Yinzhen couldn't help but be a little confused, and couldn't understand how Li Wei's future had anything to do with himself, and he didn't understand it after thinking about it for a while, so he simply asked directly: "Oh, it's Li Gou'er, this person's brother has heard of it, what's the matter, what kind of demon moth did he make?" ”

Ever heard of it? Ha, this Li Gouer should have been your person, but he was robbed by us, and it is very beautiful! Cool! Yinzuo was only happy in his heart, but his face was distressed and said: "Fourth brother, alas, Li Gou'er's kid has nothing to say about doing things, but the problem is that he can't do it without qualifications, It's not a coincidence, the North Sichuan Grain Road is supplying the army ahead, and the younger brother wants to come and go, so he has to be cheeky to ask the fourth brother for help, haha. ”

The grain road is a place with plenty of oil and water, especially when supplying the army, just pass your hands, catch a thousand children and eight thousand, and it will not show the mountain dew, if someone else opens this mouth, Yinzhen will suspect that the person is planning to make war money, and he will make a big fish, but the money in Yinzuo's family has long been too much to count, not to mention 10,000 taels of silver, even if it is 1 million or 10 million in front of Yinzuo, it may not be able to buy Yinzuo, there must be something strange here! Yin Zhen pondered silently, but he didn't speak.

Yinzuo has not played a trading trick with his brothers for a long time, but this skill has not been rusty because of this, naturally he knows when to speak, when to shut up, at this time Yinzuo's bid has been reported, and then wait for Yinzhen to bargain, no need to say anything, if Yinzhen doesn't want to help, he would have rejected it a long time ago, this thought about it, there must be his own plan, just wait, left and right these days tired and panicked, take the opportunity to rest, drink tea is also a relaxation, isn't it?

"Sixth brother, I'm afraid that this favor is not easy for the fourth brother to help, hey, the fourth brother has no messenger now, and what he says, I'm afraid it won't work." After being silent for a long time, Yin Zhen sighed and said.

Oh? It's not good to help, it's not that you can't help, hey, the difference between this word, the meaning is far worse, yes, let's let you bid. Yinzuo smiled and said: "What did the fourth brother say, hey, now the fourth brother in the household department is still very prestigious, haha, the fourth brother is too modest." ”

"Prestige?" Yin Zhen shook his head with a wry smile and said: "How can the fourth brother still have any prestige, the first and fourth brother's subordinate servants, oh, called Nian Qianyao, ask the fourth brother to help transfer it, but the result, alas, don't mention it." ”

Senior cakes? Hey, this is the bid of the fourth, ***, the fourth wants to transfer the senior cake back to Gyeonggi? Oh, that kid is a killer, although we are not afraid of him, but there is no need to find yourself uncomfortable, right? Well, it's absolutely impossible to go back to the vicinity of Gyeonggi, so it's okay to transfer elsewhere and give a high position. Yinzuo rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you are out of sight, haven't you, I've never heard you talk about this matter, haha, isn't it just a job transfer?" What's so difficult, well, the general of Guangzhou is vacant, and the first fourteenth brother also asked the younger brother if he wanted to recommend someone, just so that the little man could make up for it. ”

Nian Qianyao is now a guerrilla general of the fourth grade, if he makes up for the lack of the general in Guangzhou, he will immediately become a member of the second grade, this official is promoted fast enough, and Yinzuo's generosity naturally makes Yinzhen suspicious, and his eyes flickered as he looked at Yinzuo but did not speak.

Sample, I know you will be suspicious, we have been waiting for you. Yin Zuo smiled secretly in his stomach, but he said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Fourth brother, hey, there is one more thing, the younger brother also has to ask the fourth brother to help stretch out his hand." ”

"Oh?" When Yinzhen heard that Yinzuo still had something to ask for him, the doubts in his heart were much lighter, and he smiled and said: "You old six, you don't finish your words all at once, and you can't do it all at once." Anyway, what's the matter? ”

"Hehe, the fourth brother has learned a lesson, there is a slave named Zhou Yongcheng under the younger brother, well, it is the same as Li Wei's kid, but this Zhou Yongcheng is a scholar, originally the younger brother planned to let him go to the imperial examination to fight for fame, but then I thought about it, yes, why bother, we are not the master, why let our own slaves occupy the quota of scholars in the world, no, the younger brother is thinking about donating him the identity of a Taoist, just waiting to fill the vacancy, anyway, it is all missing, everywhere is average, but it is not bad to let him follow the chaos and fight the meritsIt just so happened that the Taiding of Northern Shaanxi Province was worried about the vacancy, and the younger brother pondered to let him make up for it, according to the younger brother who also served as the minister of the study, as long as he approved a note, but in this way, the gossip will go to the sea, hey, this matter is not bothering the second master, just let the fourth brother make a note, the younger brother signed, and this thing will be done, isn't it? ”

Yinzuo said a lot crookedly, but the meaning was very clear, these two Daotai Yinzuo are bound to win, if your fourth child refuses to help with this, it's a big deal, let's force the following, it's just that the reputation and face are not very good-looking. What Yinzuo said is also the truth, of course, the premise is that Yinzhen does not come forward to sabotage, otherwise, these two platforms may not necessarily fall into the hands of Yinzuo, which is like when Nian Qianyao changed his civilian career to a military position, and he turned around, but he was secretly kicked by Yinzuo and kicked to Yunnan.

Yinzuo's words are really not true Yinzhen knows in his heart, but whether there is a Xuanxuan Yinzhen in it is not very clear, according to Yinzhen's understanding, the battle ahead is going well, and this battle will not be long before it can be won and returned to the court, even if the two minions under Yinzuo go to the two platforms, they can't get too much oil and water, of course, it can still be achieved by mixing a military merit, plus the old fourteen is in charge of the military department, this war merit is a sure thing, as for the others, I can't see any great benefits for the time being, and General Guangzhou is an extremely affordable fat shortage, so that Nian Qianyao is on the throne, in the future, if you want to go up one level more, you will be the governor of a province, which is much more valuable than two daodao. This deal can be done! Yin Zhen secretly gritted his teeth in his heart, smiled and said: "Well, what the sixth brother said is reasonable, but it is just a matter of formalities, and the fourth brother will be infamous once." ”

Haha, it's done! Yinzuo was very proud in his heart, but his face was very calm, and he took out a piece of Chen from his sleeve with a smile and handed it to Yinzhen. Yinzhen took it, looked at it carefully, and saw that there was nothing suspicious, so he asked his subordinates to send pen and ink, and signed it casually, but he didn't hand it to Yinzuo immediately, but pretended to groan, staring at Yinzuo with his eyes.

Gotcha, sample, aren't you just waiting for us to send out a dispatch letter? Yinzuo laughed, and took out an official document from his sleeve again, which was stamped with the big seal of the Ministry of War, which was a blank order of the Guangzhou general, but it was still missing the seal of the old man Kangxi, which showed that the Ministry of War had agreed to the absence of the Guangzhou general to be recommended by Yinzhen, but the final procedures had to be approved by the old man Kangxi in the study. Yinzuo is a thief, now the study, the military department are in his own hands, if you want to spoil Yinzhen's business, just do it with your hands and feet, of course, Yinzhen is not a fool, took the letter just glanced at it, smiled, filled in the name of Nian Qianyao and stuffed it back to Yinzuo, and even handed it over together with Tiao Chen, the reason is actually very simple, the matter on the grain road is the household department in charge, as long as Yinzuo does not fulfill his promise, the two platforms can be used as platforms, But it's hard to say where the platform is.

Oh, the fourth child has grown, yes, we're done, and we don't have to talk nonsense with him, and we slipped away. Yin Zuo smiled and put away the two official documents together, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, the younger brother has drunk enough tea today, so I will leave." ”

"Oh, sixth brother, it's not early this day, why don't you have lunch at the fourth brother's place and then leave?" The fourth child pretended to hold back.

Yes, the fourth child, the dishes in your house are hard to swallow, looking at your stinky face, no matter how good our appetite is, we have to be defeated. Yin Zuo smiled and said: "No, the younger brother ordered the house to prepare a meal early today, and the younger brothers and sisters are still waiting at home, the younger brother will go first, and the fourth brother will stay." As soon as the words fell, he got up on his own, looked out of the door, Yinzhen sent Yinzuo to the door of the house with a smile, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately when he turned around, and he hurriedly turned back to the back garden, and told the henchmen in detail about the conversation with Yinzuo, a group of people and horses pondered for a long time, it was past lunch time, Wuzi had no clue, even Tang Guoming, a wise man, couldn't guess what Yinzuo's intentions were.

"Lord Wang, the sixth master has never done useless things, it is inevitable that there is something strange here, but now we really have no way to judge, as far as this transaction is concerned, although on the surface it seems that the prince is not actually at a loss, but I am sure that the sixth master must have taken a big advantage." Tang Guoming said with certainty.

"Well, if it is, well, if it's this king......" Yinzhen was embarrassed to say what would happen if he repented in front of his subordinates, but this kind of thought couldn't hide from Tang Guoming.

"Lord Wang, it's late, since the prince signed, the sixth master will definitely be able to complete this matter, and the sixth master is not a good person to discuss." Tang Guoming said with a wry smile.

"Ugh." Yin Zhen sighed and stopped talking, just silently looking at the clouds in the sky, no one knew what he was thinking......

Yinzuo went out of the Yongjun Palace, and did not go back to the house, he had to rush to get everything done before the news of the defeat spread, and as soon as he got on the sedan chair, he sent the order to go straight to Changchun Garden......
