On the tenth day of October in the seventh year of Yuanzhuo, Prince Yong Yunzhen and the eldest brother Hongli jointly signed the table, in order to ask all localities to reduce or reduce the deficit, saying that the old accounts have been accumulated for a long time, and it is not reasonable for the people at present to bear them. On the great music, quasi-playing, the edict of the world, to the implementation of the land into the mu, the official gentry integrated grain matters as the scale of consideration, or reduce or inevitably.

On October 15 of the seventh year of Yuanzhuo, the "Jingshi Chronicle" reported the relevant news in a large format, the controversy in the world rose again, but although the opponents were numerous, but there was no basis for what they said, after the debate of the three newspapers, the opponents were few and silent, and the praisers gathered, and the text praised the words of the big brother Hongli, the so-called young and old, worried about the country and the people, and so on, and occasionally some people wrote articles praising Prince Yong Yun Zhen Gong loyal to the country, is a virtuous king, for a time Yun Jin, Hongli's reputation rose, widely spread in all directions, but I don't see what abnormalities these two people have because of it, Presiding over the work of the household department is still the same, and the household department that is running at full capacity is in good order.

The devil is in the details! Yes, everyone understands this truth, but it's so difficult to do, it's been a year, a whole year, right? I've been in this warehouse for a year, but where is the harvest? I don't know! Can there be a harvest? Still don't know! He looked up sullenly from the pile of old papers, looked at the huge glass skylight that was the only one in the storeroom that could let in the light, and sighed, feeling as melancholy as the gray sky at the moment.

"Second master, second master. "Gongbu Langzhong Wan Ming saw that he wanted to be fascinated, and he had to shout twice.

"Oh, Lord Wan, is there something wrong?" Carry forward came to his senses, smiled self-deprecatingly, looked at Wan Mingyao and asked gently.

"Second master, that's right. Wan Mingyao squirmed. With an apologetic face, he said: "Second master, it's Chinese New Year's Eve today, and the little ones are all worried about going home, but, but, but they don't have the courage to mention it to the second master, Xiaguan, that, Xiaguan......"

"Oh. "Only then did I remember that today was Chinese New Year's Eve. According to the usual practice, the officials of the various ministries can take a holiday until noon, and it is the end of the hour, and it is already past the time to take a holiday, and it is time to enter the palace by carrying forward himself, and a trace of apologetic smile suddenly appeared on the face of Hongyang: "I'm sorry everyone, it's Ben Baylor who delayed the big guy's time, well, it's all gone." Go home early for the New Year. Then he instructed Liu Xie, who was accompanying him behind him: "Liu Xie, go, reward every official who participated in sorting out the information, regardless of the size of the official position, 300 yuan per person." ”

"Second master. You are ......, the little ones are just doing their part, and you can't break the bank. When Wan Mingyao heard that he was rewarded, a light appeared in his eyes, and his heart had already blossomed with joy - for a technical official like Wan Mingyao. There is nowhere to make money and water, so I can only point to the court's income and raise incorruptible silver to live, and it is only an income of two thousand yuan all year round, and three hundred yuan is a lot of money.

"Well, let's go back early, and Ben Belle is counting on your help in the coming year. Go for it. Seeing Wan Mingyao and the others happy, Hongyang felt a pain in his heart for no reason - these technical officials are not from the imperial examination, but they all have the ability to do it, others don't know, but they have been with them for a year and understand it very well, if it weren't for this group of technical officials, how could the military of the Qing Dynasty achieve such a brilliant victory, but their treatment was the worst of all officials. Such contrasts often make Hongyang's heart uncomfortable.

Maybe it's time to talk to Huang Ama about the treatment of technical officials. They are the hope that the Qing Dynasty will continue to be strong, hmm. The wisdom of Emperor Amma will not fail to understand this. He looked at the officials of the Ministry of Industry who were very happy when they got a little reward with a heavy heart, and then looked at the seconded personnel of the Eight Banners who were happy on the surface but didn't care at all, so he let out a sigh, got up, strode out of the warehouse, got into the sedan chair, and went straight to the palace......

There is a Chinese New Year's Eve every year, there is a Spring Festival every year, every year Chinese New Year's Eve is the same old, in addition to eating a reunion dinner, listening to the play, there is actually nothing to look at, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is no exception, if there is any difference, that is, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is rarely snowing, and then there is to carry forward some private plans - take advantage of the moment to ask for peace in the palaces, try to see if you can see Yi Xue Gege, even if you only see one side and don't speak, it can be regarded as a small comfort to Xiao Yao, who has lost a lot of weight.

Xiao Yao, alas, Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao is not at ease at all at this time. As soon as he thought of Xiao Yao's haggard appearance and forced himself to smile, Hongyang's heart was so irritable that he couldn't do it, he was sitting in a sedan chair and felt wrong, he couldn't wait to rush into the palace, pull Yixue Gege and go to his own house, of course, Hongyang can only think about it, and he still knows the truth that if he can't bear it, he will make a big plan.

"Second master, the palace gate has arrived, please get off the sedan chair. Liu Xie's words woke him up from his thoughts.

"Oh. Carry forward responded casually, jumped out of the sedan car door, strode towards the palace, laughed a few words with the officers and soldiers of the Shanpu Battalion on duty at the palace gate, and searched the sergeant of the Shanpu Battalion, and then walked into the palace with a smile, asked where the holy place was, and hurried to the study, and when he arrived at the door, let the little eunuchs go to hand over the sign, and stood alone in the open space outside the Yuehua Gate thinking about it:

Huang Ama's overall control is really powerful, at this point, I am afraid that the Holy Ancestor is far inferior to Huang Ama, the eldest brother and I have been fighting for many years, but there has never been a head-to-head confrontation, let alone a confrontation, not even a chance to hit the ground head-on, this is basically a fight but not a fight, the battle for the heir throughout the ages is only afraid that there has never been such a phenomenon, but no matter how not to fight, it is almost time to divide the victory and defeat, maybe it is next year, but, alas, It's just that the eldest brother should be in the hands now, what should I do? Mr. Xiao always said that he was not in a hurry, he was not in a hurry, but could I really not be in a hurry? What if you're just in a hurry? So far, it can only be a step at a time.

"Yo, the second brother is here too. Hongli, dressed in a full silver fox robe, walked out of the upper study in a chic manner, and greeted Hongli with a smile on his face.

"The eldest brother is fine, the younger brother has just arrived. Hongyang replied politely.

"Oh. Hongli smiled and said, "Huang Ama is waiting for you inside." Looking back, at today's reunion banquet, you and my brother can have a good life and drink a few more glasses. ”

"The little brother must accompany him. Hongyang said calmly, nodded, followed behind the eunuch Gao Nianying, turned around the Yuehua Gate without looking back, and stepped on the corridor leading to the upper study, Hongli looked at Hongli's back. He shrugged his shoulders, didn't say anything, and walked away.

"The retainer knocked to see the emperor. As soon as he walked into the upper study, he saw Yinzuo looking at him with a smile on his face, hurriedly took a few steps forward, and knelt down to say goodbye.

"Get up. Yinzuo raised his hand with a smile, signaled to promote his body, and looked at him with interest. The corners of his mouth smiled and said, "I heard that you are still staying in the treasury of the Ministry of Industry until the end of the day, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Back to the emperor's words, there is indeed a matter. Hongyang didn't understand why Yinzuo asked about it, so he didn't dare to hide it, and replied honestly.

"Hmm. Diligence is a good thing, but it also depends on the time, and the officials below have a few big festivals in a year to relax, and they should be considerate of their subordinates for their superiors. Otherwise, how to convince the public? Yinzuo's smile remained unchanged and said lightly.

"It's the retainer who forgot the time for a while, and asked the emperor Ama to forgive him. Carry forward replied hurriedly.

"Well, that's it, don't mention it. Yinzuo waved his hand and said, "I ask you, how is the information of the Ministry of Industry organized?" ”

Carry forward a little and groaned: "Back to the emperor's words, most of them have been sorted out, according to the progress. The full assessment should be completed by the beginning of June next year. ”

"Early June?" Yinzuo's brows furrowed, and he muttered for a while: "Okay, then it's June, how about I give you a time limit to complete it on June 10th?" ”

"The son must finish it in time. Carry forward said categorically.

"Okay, I like to listen to this, it's okay, I've seen it, you go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye. Let's go back and walk around the palace. Go for it. Yinzuo smiled and waved his hand.

"Yes, Huang Ama. Carry forward replied in a low voice. Just about to withdraw, but he paused again, glanced at Yinzuo, and said respectfully: "Huang Ama, Erchen still has one more thing to make clear, Erchen has often dealt with the officials of the Ministry of Industry since he received the Ministry of Works, and the technical officials are the mainstay, and the Erchen ......" carried forward a pause, gritted his teeth and said: "Erchen thinks that the treatment of technical officials in my court is low, and it may not be a good thing for a long time, and Erchen thinks that it should be appropriately promoted." ”

Uh-huh, it's really not easy for this kid to think of this, hehe, it's not in vain that we will send you to the Ministry of Engineering. Carry forward what Yinzuo said in fact, he has long been aware of it, but just because the time has not come, he has never operated on the cabinet other than the Ministry of War - it is very difficult to change the rejection of "kit kat and obscenity" in Confucianism, not that it can be changed, how to change In fact, Yinzuo has already made a decision in his heart, but it is not yet time to reveal the place, at this time, seeing that he can see through this, Yinzuo is still very happy in his heart, and smiled: "Then according to your wishes, how should it be adjusted?" ”

"Erchen hasn't figured it out yet. Carry forward did not dare to hide it, and replied honestly.

"Okay, then I'll go back and think about it, and submit it together with the excerpt from the Ministry of Industry in mid-June. Yinzuo smiled and nodded.

Hongyang is a awake person, and immediately understood the meaning of Yinzuo's words, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Erchen retires." He got up and went straight to Cining Palace.

Changchun Palace, Concubine Lan's dormitory, originally no different from other palaces, but since Yi Xue Gege was encircled in this palace, there is always a group of eunuchs from the Zongren Mansion outside the palace, and people who are not in this palace must have holy will if they want to enter and exit this palace, of course, there are exceptions, this exception is the big days of Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Chinese New Year's Eve every year, the royal family members can enter and exit this palace to ask Concubine Lan for peace, as for whether they can see Yi Xue Gege, it is difficult to say, it depends on whether Concubine Lan agrees. After carrying forward came out of Cining Palace, and after seeing his mother in Kunning Palace, he hurriedly came to Changchun Palace, but the signs were handed in for a while, and he didn't see Concubine Lan Xuan, so he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and he didn't pay attention to the eunuch of the Zizongren Mansion, and stood outside the palace gate with a calm face.

"Second master, Concubine Lan announced your visit. Just when Hongyang was waiting a little impatiently, a little eunuch ran out and said with a smile on his face.

"Hmm. Carry forward responded casually, straightened his clothes, and took out a few ten-yuan tickets to reward the little eunuch, and asked seemingly casually: "Is Gege ever okay?" ”

The little eunuch got the benefit, his mouth was already smiling crookedly, and he hurriedly received the reward money into his sleeve, nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, good, okay, the second master may be able to see Gege today." ”

"Oh?" Carry forward smiled noncommittally, didn't say much, silently followed the little eunuch into the Changchun Palace, just turned a jade screen and saw Concubine Lan dressed in a costume, sitting on the couch with a calm face, Hongyang didn't dare to slack off, hurried up a few steps, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "The child has asked Concubine Lan to say goodbye." ”

"Excuse me. Chunlan didn't even raise her eyelids, she just said coldly, and the cold air in those words could almost make a big head.

Carry forward naturally understands in his heart that for the sake of Xiao Yao's affairs, the master in front of him doesn't treat himself very well, the first few times he came to ask for peace, it is all this virtue, as for wanting to see Yi Xue Gege, he doesn't even have a door. At this time, seeing that Concubine Lan's face was not good, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, it was estimated that he had run for nothing again, but he didn't dare to be rude, so he had to suppress the irritability in his heart, kowtow and said, "Thank you for your grace." He stood up with his hands down to the side, looking respectfully listening.

Concubine Lan didn't even look at Hongyang, snorted coldly, got up and turned back to the harem......
