Chapter 10 The 10th Committee's imperial envoy to Shandong to investigate the huge case heard rumors that Shi Yao was afraid of "black bricks"

He Shen's detailed physical and human relationship can be said to be predictable. The sedan chair stopped beside the dismounting stone at the gate of Hefu, and a group of Beijing officials swarmed out of the gate, including friends from the House of Internal Affairs, colleagues from Luan Yiwei, and others. The pen posts, books, offices, masters, and even handymen in the military aircraft department of the study room are all waiting for him to come down to court, congratulating him on his promotion to the military aircraft and being released as an imperial envoy.At a glance, Liu Quan saw that the bald man who gave Cathay Pacific that night was also crowded inside.Seeing Heshen getting off the sedan chair, some of the group of people smiled flatteringly, foolishly, smirking, and laughing loudly, with different identities and different smiles. Those who salute salute, those who pat shoulders and shake hands, some pretend to be forthright and make jokes, some deliberately reserved and sincere greetings, and some try to make use of each other to keep friendship, ghosts and snakes go their own way.Shouting, "This is a great happy event--I will make a fortune with the uncle, and I want to treat you!" All over the world... Shall I go with you?" "My Lord and Lord proclaimed masculinity and worshiped ministers at such a young age, there is no precedent for the founding of the Qing Dynasty..." "The holy family is rich, and it is the first branch!" "Tian Han Lu Yao, be careful all the way Bones of the body"...and so on and so forth.

He Shen stood calmly and generously on the spot, and the audience said the holy words of hoarding a car, and nodded with a modest smile. After the sound of the people stopped, he arched his hands and said: "Brother dare not. I am lucky to be blessed by God, That's why we can have today. One is that the grace of God cannot be waived, only hard work is required, and the rewards are generous; the other is that friends who are poor and humble cannot be forgotten, and wives who are poor will not go to court. You don't despise me, and you still come and go as usual, Heshen, who should take care of him, dare not refuse. He sleeps on the bed at home and leans against the wall when he goes out, and he also hopes that his friends will help him a lot. Don’t leave anyone who comes today, it’s commonplace to keep guests—but brothers can’t accompany them. I’ll come back When you bring your luggage, you will be reported by the imperial envoy Xingyuan, what's the matter, wait for me to talk to you when I come back from the business trip!" After finishing speaking, he gave a long bow with a smile, raised his foot and went into the mansion.

"My lords, my lords!" Seeing that everyone was about to chase He Shen into the mansion again, Liu Quan stretched out his arms to stop him, and said loudly: "It is a rule for imperial envoys not to see foreign guests on the day when they are entrusted. If you want to treat me, I, Liu Quan, will do it for you—the conference hall in the mansion is spacious and warm, let’s set up a table, and let’s eat him until we get drunk!" Coaxing and teasing, I and a few family members let the group of cronies Please enter the mansion.Seeing the gift giver standing around under the pomegranate tree, he came over with a smile, clasped his fists together and said, "What's the name of this honored brother, Taifu? Since you're here, please join us."

The man looked left and right to see if there was no one there, and he also clasped his fists, and said with a smirk: "Your Majesty, Hob Knife Meat" Liu Quan, really lives up to his reputation, is he so forgetful?My name is Mao Zuhui, and I am Master Qian Liang of Shandong Governor’s Yamen—" "Oh - oh - I remembered!" Liu Quan suddenly realized, slapped his forehead and smiled, "Look at my memory! Old Master Mao, I have been looking forward to it for a long time!" He suddenly lowered his voice, and said with a sinister smile: " There are so many people now, it’s not the time to talk. Master He can’t see you at the moment either. The things you sent are unopened, and they are still piled up on the gift shelf in the back room. The master is very grateful for the kindness of the country, and this time I went to Shandong to meet Now, let’s treat Mr. Guo to a few drinks!”

Mao Zuhui couldn't taste it when he heard the words "unopened", his face changed color, he sneered, stroked his bare forehead like a wine jar, and said, "Play with me! I'm not easy to provoke by swallowing knives and eating fire." As long as I raise my arm like this, and shout 'He Shen received Cathay Pacific's one million taels of silver!' the imperial envoy will not be an imperial envoy, and an adult will become a villain!" "If you want to shout, you can shout, shout If you come out, you are a lunatic." Liu Quan laughed, "If you shout out, it will kill Cathay Pacific, and you will not be able to bring down a hair on us and your lord!"

"Let's go, let's drink first." Seeing Mao Zuhui in a daze, Liu Quan pushed his shoulders, "Brother, I will take care of everything. After I finish drinking, I will have a detailed talk with you—to tell you, Mr. and I have already left the house at this moment." Went out. According to the order, Hui Shuntian Mansion is ordered to block your yamen to see the Zhezi master!" Mao Zuhui seemed to have been hit on the back of the head suddenly, his face was so pale that there was no blood in it, he stood on the ground and swayed before he regained his footing, and murmured: "The study is closed? I haven't gone to Shandong to investigate the case, so I'm going to do it here." Is it? This... this..."

"Don't be so bearish of your mother, you're still 'swallowing knives and eating people'!" Liu Quan patted him on the shoulder, making Mao Zuhui tremble all over, "This is a matter of order, and no one can stop it You just live in the reading room, right? I'll give you another place - we and the adults have plenty of ways, don't be so f*ckingly depressed. What's going on after people see it?" Saying that, he made a gesture of embarrassment The idiot Mao Zuhui entered the room and introduced to everyone: "Bring a new friend to everyone. This is Mr. Bai Xiuwen, the teacher in front of the Minister of Tibet, Mr. Amuha! Come, come, please sit down and talk..."

He Shen went back to the mansion after a while and left. First, he went to the wife's room in the back hall and explained that he was about to go on the road according to the order. First, it’s my wife’s illness. Let’s find a good doctor and get along well with Aunt Wu. If there is any important matter, I’ll discuss it with Aunt Wu... My daily life and food are taken care of. ..." Then he said, "Don't forget that I was looking for women in the alleys outside. The imperial envoy made a move, and dozens of people followed the rules. How to do it? Besides, I am not that kind of person..." Speaking seriously, the eldest second aunt and the upper house The girls all turned their faces and smiled.Feng Shi, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Don't be such a mother-in-law, we can save..."

He Shen came out with a smile, went to Wu's room again, saw a room full of wives and old women standing there, waved their hands and said, "You go out." Zhang was busy pouring tea, and He Shen said, "I'm leaving right away. You don't have to be busy. You have a large sum of money to pay. You hand it over to Liu Quan. I came here specially for this." After talking about fifty thousand silver, he said again: "You pay 160,000 for this item, and give Liu Quan 60,000. The one hundred thousand is your own silver. I'm leaving. You and the second aunt are on good terms. Don't make a fuss. She can do whatever she says about housekeeping. I will help the emperor outside, so don't set fire to the backyard." Wu Shi said: "You gave me a Zhuangzi before, and I want so much What about the money? All the money has been released, and there is only a little over 100,000 change in the account, and the house has to be overturned. If it is too tight, the people in the house will be wronged..." He Shen saw that her face was radiant, and his eyes were bright. God, she leaned closer and smiled softly: "It's really considerate and caring...you just figure it out! I'll reward you when I come back..." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, and twisted the clothes on her chest Suddenly, Wu knocked him down angrily, and He Shen went out with a smile. When he turned his head and saw the mulberry paper packets on the file of the main room, he stopped and asked, "Where did these come from?"

"It's not that dirty official in the front yard!" Shi Wu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are so proud of being promoted, they all rushed here to give gifts!" "Well... that's not going to work." He Shen frowned and said, "I asked Liu to return all the original seals to me. Just say 'a gentleman's conversation is like water', I should do things for everyone, and give them a pack of good tea. Count me in." There is no intention of slowing down customers. From now on, no money will be accepted—I will go.” ...He went out here in a sedan chair and hurried for about half an hour. Through the window of the sedan chair, he saw the tall and gloomy three-storey Amoy in Shuntian Mansion.Because Shuntian Prefecture is the capital government of the Fukuo Imperial City, it manages the two Fukuo counties of Daxing and Wanping, and has jurisdiction over Gu'an, Bazhou, Changping, Tongzhou, Sanhe, Xianghe, Yuhui, Liangxiang, Fangshan, and Jizhou. , Huairou, Shunyi, Pinggu, Zunshi... Twenty-eight counties are 691 miles from east to west and 510 miles from north to south. They are known as the "No. 1 Mansion in the World". , Zhifu Yamen Fu Yin is a third-rank official position, which is the same as Fengtian Fu Yin's official rank, and the Yamen is viewed in parallel with the provincial general affairs departments.The sedan chair gradually approached, and He Shen saw a large group of yamen servants standing in line in front of the screen wall outside the Fuyi Gate. Holding the notebook and trotting all the way to greet him, the magistrate of He Shenqing has already got the news and is waiting for him, standing and waiting for him to salute.He didn't take the book either, he raised his hands and said with a smile: "Guo Yaocao, what kind of mystery are you doing?"

"I was interviewed at Zhongtang and Ji Zhongtang this morning." Guo Yingnian narrowed his eyes with a smile, "He told me to wait in the mansion for the boss, and there is a big case that I have to deal with - I will have lunch today." It is to let everyone start a gang in the room, and everyone who is on the criminal name will have to wait for me... Oh, ah! In the morning, Tang Zhao, the official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, invited me to go to the house to pay congratulations, and then saw Fourth Master Fu, It’s not necessary to go overboard, and the imperial envoy is so busy today that he may not be able to leave the house... Tsk tsk... I still remember that Ma Erpangzi treated guests in the morning, and Wu Tiezui looked at you at the banquet, saying that you, the roots of Wuyue Qiguang Mountain are bright and colorful, At the age of twenty-five, you will have great luck, and the Tathagata is unstoppable, and you will do everything you want, and there are no taboos. Take a look, do you agree? If you have a decree, please order it first, and I will treat you when it is over!" He Shen laughed while listening, and said, "A lot of nonsense, only the last sentence is useful-do you know that the governor's office in Shandong Province doesn't know about the bookstore?" , the courtyard house in Xizhe is—why, do you want to copy the house?” “Yes.” He Shen nodded solemnly, “However, if you want to drop a little fancy, you can’t force it...” He said, Pulled him over a corner, muttered and confessed again. Guo Yingnian nodded while listening, and said with a smile at last, "This is the current way of making money in the foreign mansion. Capture all the pheasants in the hall, interrogate which officials have gone whoring, and then arrest people, even scare them." Take the guard, get bail and leave, and it’s okay to send the money—it’s just that this is a violation of the rules, not a violation of the king’s law. You have to search for the memorials and letters in the study, and I can’t interfere with it. The papers have been taken away, Governor of Shandong The yamen asked, I can't explain it. But this is a matter of order, you want to check, just check it, just pretend that I didn't see it, can it be done like this?" He Shen smiled and said: "No wonder people call you 'Glass egg', as slippery as a loach—OK, just eat two lunches like this!" Guo Yingnian wanted to explain the dispute over the porridge shed in the Beiyuhuang Temple, and He Shen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry! Yaocao, who am I to follow who! The subordinates will grind their teeth and bite their butts in the future! ——Let’s go, go on an errand, and when I come back from Shandong, you can fix me a table of noodles and eat a bit of greasy food. Good friend!" Guo Yingnian grinned as he said that. …The Shandong governor’s yamen’s book-reading study was sealed off, the sky was getting dark, the winter days were short and the nights were long, and it was not long after He Shen looked at his watch in Xizheng.Meeting in the first half of the day, and going around the west and south of the city in the second half of the day, housework and official affairs were mixed up, and he traveled for fifty or sixty miles.When raiding the study room, the other government servants took advantage of the fire to loot, searching every corner for gold and silver; for someone with a heart, he only picked up Cathay's personal letters and collected them in a net, and he didn't have time to look through them. It was full of letters.Guo Yingnian still wanted to invite him to dinner, so he laughed again and again and resigned. He lifted his sedan chair and went straight back to the Yamen of the Criminal Department in Shengjiang Hutong.At that time, the yamen had already dispersed, except for the yamen servants on duty at the gate, the front and back yards were dark and quiet, and there was not even a shadow of a person.He felt that he was forced to come up, and he poured the Luliang tank in the east toilet for a while, and then he was relieved. He came out with his crotch tied and his trousers tied. Seeing that the signing room was also dark, he said to himself: " Did you say they were waiting for me in the signing room...why don't you see anyone?" Just as he was surprised, he saw a few yamen servants walking slowly in a line with lamps in their hands, and only when they got closer did they see clearly that the leader of the team was Xing Jianye, the official of the criminal arrest hall. .He Shen, who knew him very well, stopped and said with a smile, "Old Xing, have you eaten yet? Aren't Liu Sikou and Qian in the yamen? Now the signing room is dark, where are they going?" "Ah—it's He-sama!" Xing Jianye was over the age of hearing, and his body was still as strong as a strong bull. Seeing that it was He Shen, he laughed and said with a loud voice, "They are all in the back hall! Zhongtang, Ji Zhongtang, and Li Junmen are here to see off the three imperial envoys——Look at my eyes, I thought you were the master of the Prison Division! You are old... useless... I'll take the master there..." Then he walked forward.He Shen knew that this person also had the status of a guard, so he didn't dare to take him, and smiled as he walked: "It's not easy for you, you should take a rest at such an old age, and you have to come here to check the night duty— ——I will tell Master Chongru later that these tasks should be done by young people." Xing Jianye said: "Long Live God personally ordered me to go on a business trip with you, what's the trouble with such a decent job? Yes, I get sick every time I rest, and I’m so cheap! My three sons asked them to follow, I have to show them what it means to be on a job! They are too young and too delicate... Last time I told them to go to Shandong with Mr. Liu and be surrounded by others. I couldn’t send out an urgent letter, and when I came back, I was so proud that I would spit on them in the face: Hundreds of muddy poles will scare you from hiding in the temple. Son, how dare you show off in front of me! What Thirteen Taibao, the three heroes of the Xing family—Xiong Baoer!" He Shen listened to him nagging and said, "I went to the south of the Yangtze River with Lord Qianlong back then" - this is even Huang Renba's thirteen Taibao. He smiled and asked, "Who will follow the imperial envoy this time? Besides your father and son, will Huang Tianba's disciples go?" Xing Jianye said: "The Taibao! Thirteen of them fought and killed one, and the remaining twelve are only Huang Fuguang, Huang Fuzong Mao Huang Fuyang, and Huang Fuming Wuliu The individual is still whole, and the rest are either broken arms or lame legs, and they are still "taibao"! This time, Long Live God still has Liang Maoyun and his legs, which are also in it! Alas... Having said that, I can't say that these Taibao are incompetent , Now it’s been a long time, his mother’s people have changed their temperaments! They’re all like irritability and phlegm syndrome, and they’ll get evil fire at every turn, and they want to fight when they’re fucked! A group of people with one trick, beat the boss to resist the government, destroy the family and ransack the house. The shabby one——Liu Xianlu from Surabaya, Shandong, said to the one who weighed the scales when paying the rent, "There are too many weeds and chaff in it. Your windmill is about to break down and repair it." Isn't this a gossip? Let's fight!—Thousands of people rose up and smashed the owner's granary with just one greeting! Because of this sentence, Fourth Master Fu killed more than 70 people—do you think this is still the way of the world now?" The speech was in the back hall In the patio, I saw that the upper room was brightly lit, because it was bright inside, and I could see it clearly through the bamboo curtain. There were dishes on the table of the Eight Immortals, and Liu Yong, Qian Feng, Yu Minzhong, Ji Yun, and Li Shiyao were all there, and there was actually Fukang Anhe Hubu doctor Guo Zhiqiang!Surprised in his heart, he stepped in, except for Liu Yong, everyone got up from their seats to salute.He Shen estimated the seats, Liu Yong was in the middle, followed by Minzhong's left companion, and Qian Feng was the first one on the right, and the chair on the right of the main seat was empty, presumably reserved for himself.Before taking his seat, Liu Yong patted the back of the chair and said: "Don't let me do my part—you should sit here, don't give up. I guess you will have a moment to come. They still have something to go back to business, so I decided to sit down and talk first." "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." He Shen smiled and entered the table, took the tea offered by the yamen servant, and said, "Otherwise, I could have come back a moment earlier! There are two masters and their families living in Beijing, and several women are holding back. People, noisy and noisy, butcher price crying and Sapoer called Zhuang Tianqu, saying that their men are "serious people, they are not allowed to eat flowers and wine, how can they go shopping in brothels?" Shuntian Mansion...It took me a long time to coax me..." Ji Yun said with a smile: "How do you coax people?" He Shen said: "I said that you really eat a casserole with one mouthful - you only know that it is crispy but not gritty. Have you ever sued the imperial court? That is the path that people who have been wronged and died at the bottom of the sea are willing to go! First stop the sedan chair at the entrance of the criminal department, take off your pants and bare buttocks, beat thirty sticks, and then roll nails The paper on the back of the board may not accept your case. If you win the lawsuit, you will be "sued by the people" and sent to hard labor for three thousand miles-you men are also guilty of adultery, and the crime is very minor. Get back home safely, and still have dinner for the New Year—you are so tossing, your own sin is greater than your man! Come, they resist the government, yell at the official business, and I will take them all!——Such coaxing, stop making trouble .” While talking, everyone laughed, and He Shen looked at the table noodles. Although the hot aroma was overflowing, the table was full of dishes, such as green celery mixed with lotus vegetable slices, apple slices, peach crisps, steamed crispy pork, spiced fish, and scallops. Roasted cabbage heart, crystal shrimp, boiled chicken, stewed ham, roasted two winters, stewed three delicacies, etc. There are no expensive dishes, and the general calculation is worth two, two, six or seven dollars. There is only a Panlongru porcelain buckle in the middle. The bowl is as bright and white as jade with glutinous rice buckle. The top of the bowl is inlaid with cherries like small red agate beads. The name is nicely called "Snow Mountain Red Jade". "XX Chef Respect System", the "seat" stands out on the red sandalwood pedestal, and it can be seen at a glance that it is a meal bestowed by the emperor. He Shen immediately understood that it was not Ji Yun and Yu Min who were stingy. Since the emperor appreciates the food, No other dish can be more expensive than it.Seeing that Liu Yong got up and carefully picked up a piece of "Red Jade", he did as he was busy, and the rest of the people followed suit, so everyone was free to do so. All the people in the seat are the nobles of the Chinese and Korean courts who are very respectable ministers, and everyone has to show their manners. This is the first time for Yu Minzhong, He Shen, and Guo Zhiqiang to sit at the same table with Ji Yun and others. The topic of "Gifts to Honor" is in it - this kind of banquet is always just for show - it is better to "eat" and go back to eat than to eat here.Therefore, when Liu Yong moved the chopsticks and Ji Yun persuaded the dishes, everyone also moved the chopsticks and greeted the dishes. They were all as rigid as marionettes. After the three rounds of toasting, "take care of the road and dust", Liu Yong said, "it's convenient, let's eat more." Sincerely," he stood up, and everyone left their seats one after another, all "full". "Yu Yi Jian and I were taught by Mr. Huang Yingnian Zhengjun in the past years. At that time, the character and character of the articles were not bad." Withdrawing from the table and sitting around for a while, Yu Minzhong sighed, "Who knows the world The ghost realm of things is an illusion, and it will change if it changes. The three adults go, don't be polite with him, if you find out the clues, you will take someone to ransack the house, and I will beat him hard! He is so unbelievable, I really want to be swept away To lose face, humiliate the ancestors and ruin the family, I feel angry and miserable when I think about it. But he is my younger brother after all. When it is over, I still have to ask the emperor for grace. If he can’t keep him, it’s his life. I still drink a bowl of cold syrup. I want to give it to him..." As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.There was nothing to comfort the crowd, and they all just fell silent.Liu Yong couldn't stay silent, and sighed: "Zhongtang doesn't have to be too sad, I feel sad when I hear this, the case must be investigated first, Cathay's covetous extortion is a case of corruption and bribery, and it's not clear how much Yu Yijian has got involved. He is the chief envoy. Cathay Pacific sells the rich and the shortage. Without him, nothing can be done. If it is just flattery, it is just a matter of punishment. Hate, righteousness must be understood, and personal friendship must be weighed. Yu adults can see it." Qian Feng thought, thinking that Yu Minzhong would definitely reprimand Yu Yi Jian, blindly "strictly deal with" the tone, and put himself aside to gag everyone's mouths. What he said was reasonable and affectionate, and it was painful and sincere, and he couldn't help feeling empty in his heart, and said slowly: "Master Liu's words are also what I want to say in my heart. Even brothers, there are also Liu Xiahui and Zhe. He has long been independent. The family is far away and is an official thousands of miles away, and he can only blame himself for not cultivating virtue when he is near the ink. What Sir Yu said just now, the students were very moved when they heard it, which shows the integrity of the adults and understands the feelings of the adults." He Shenyuan is the one who is the most able to help make fun of the conversation. As the saying goes, "a bastard" can make the scene lively and joyful, but at the moment he wants to say a few times and keeps silent.One is that he feels that he is "not on the table", and he can't speak such decent and weighty words, and he is ashamed of his appearance as "too vulgar"; There were still some "sorry" things stuffed in the pouch, no matter how sneaky it was, the "human words" could not be spoken with confidence, so after holding back for a long time, he said: "Please relax Zhongtang." Yu Minzhong But he changed the subject, turned his face and asked Guo Zhiqiang: "Just now you and Fukang'an came here and said you have something to report, what is it?" Fukang turned pale.No one has dared to call him by his name before. Ji Yun present here always calls him "Brother Shi". From now on, Liu Yong has always called him by his name and avoided his name, "Fu Si Ye", "Fu Ye", "Si Ye" , even Qianlong himself often called him "Kang'er" privately.He established himself as a marquis with military merits, and was the head of the waiting guards. He had always been proud and devoted himself to being a general and a prime minister.Yu Minzhong was so careless, he just looked at him as a member of the Xiangfu Yamen, his self-esteem was lightly stabbed by Yu Minzhong, blood immediately dripped, a sneer hung from the corner of his mouth, and he turned his face to Guo Zhiqiang and said: "You report to him. "Everyone fell silent immediately. "There are two things to report to Ji Zhongtang and Yu Zhongtang." Guo Zhiqiang said in breathless silence, "One is to follow Hurd to send counseling papers from Tianshan Daying to the Ministry of Households, and there was a mudslide in autumn. The road from Tianshan to Urumqi, more than a thousand miles away, has been washed away and needs to be repaired quickly. Half of the money has already been allocated, and it will not be enough even if it is all allocated. Please ask for instructions to allocate another 200,000 taels from the military expenditure, and the total is 650,000. It was winter at this time, and the Ministry thought it would be easier to walk after the snow melted in spring, so Hurd wrote to Fu Zhongtang again, saying that it was extremely difficult to recruit migrant workers without cash. Fu Zhongtang was sick, so the fourth master took me Here it is—this is one piece." He licked his lips and said: "The other one is from Wuhu Liangdao, Fu Siye led troops to suppress Zhang Luxian and his son in Sishui County in September last year. Daoist borrowed 50,000 taels of salary, and now it is necessary to quickly make up for the shortfall. Wuhu Grain Road handed over 480,000 taels of silver to the treasury last year. The customs in Surabaya and other places are tough and easy to change. The soldiers have just been conscripted and suppressed. The "robbed households" should pay more attention to pensions and precautions. Don't wait for the spring to be caught off guard. Calculated in this way, the household department should allocate 100,000 silver to Wuhu Road to make up for the slack. Please Zhongtang judges." As he said, he held up a stack of documents with both hands and asked Ji and Yu to have a look. Ji Yun took it and only looked at the cover, then handed it to Yu Zhongmin, and said with a smile: "everywhere is asking for money, money is really a good thing! Usually it's the book that takes care of these things, and then it's Ah Gui, I The bachelor only talks about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and doesn't ask questions about how to play, but listens to the opinions of the audience. Brother Fu Shi, what rules do you have? And Shi Yao, why are you so reticent tonight?" Yu Min just finished speaking. Zhong asked: "What is 'stolen household,'?" "Stolen households belong to bandits." Guo Zhiqiang said: "There are also families who cause trouble from bandits, collectively referred to as 'stolen households'. These people are all poor, and they all believe in cults. It is easy to be incited by others to take risks——I was a county magistrate in Shandong, and when I heard the word 'stealing households', everyone in the yamen felt numb!" Ji Yun said with a smile: "Old Yu has never read "Liaozhai" What? It contains a vixen, who has been put into a gourd by a Taoist priest, and is still yelling in it, 'I steal a house too!'" A few words of ridicule, the already hostile atmosphere in the room suddenly eased.Everyone laughed, only Fu Kang'an sat with his hands on his knees and said nothing. Li Shiyao has been feeling bored today, and he said goodbye to Liu Yong tonight, hardly saying a word.In the morning at the military plane, I heard Urasu, a small military plane, make a whisper, telling him to beware of someone "smashing black bricks" and saying that the news from the inner court "has a bad tone".What is "black brick" and what is "tongue" but he can't figure it out at all. He has led troops to fight in wars, and served as the "Yintai" of the copper political department. Lei Li has just made a decisive decision to kill and attack. Who is the offender, how old is it, and what is the reason?It wasn't until Ji Yun asked by name that he felt that he was too preoccupied and couldn't even take care of the scene in front of him.Taking advantage of a few words of laughter, he stabilized his mind and said: "I have a few opinions. Please decide between the two middle halls. Since there is a mudslide, you must not wait for the spring to transport the money. The spring is warm and the ice is melting, and the road is even worse. Difficult to go. Following Hurd to ask for 650,000 yuan is false. Because the Ministry of Household Affairs is no better than the Ministry of War. It has never paid for the money, "extravagantly asking prices to pay back the money", and prepares you for a knife. This level does not have to I made it clear to Sui, saying that there is a lot of money in various places. Please ask the general to be sympathetic to the difficulties of the household department and give him a high hat. The 450,000 silver will be allocated immediately. If it is not enough, it will be replenished. Recruiting migrant workers in Tianshan Nonsense. It is suggested that the general should add this silver to military expenses and give it to the soldiers to supplement food. Those soldiers are hard workers. One is worth three civilians. They also have silver rewards and tooth sacrifices. All soldiers are not happy. So Come on, Tianshan Daying must have nothing to say." The words made Ji Yun nod repeatedly, and even Fu Kang'an secretly said: "Father said that Li Shiyao is full of tricks, it is true." Just a smile appeared, Yu Minzhong said: "Gao Tao's words are true. In this way, first allocate 400,000 yuan to use, and make up for it if it is not enough. Even the relief from stolen households should not be too generous. It’s hard to come out.” This is not bad at all, but everyone knows that Fu Kang’an is the most “generous” in rewarding soldiers, and he is the famous “General Weifu” who spends tens of thousands of taels of gold. Yes, even with the lingering aftermath of the previous words, Yu Minzhong had unknowingly hurt Fu Kang'an again and again, Fu Kang'an quickly withdrew his smile, although he was calm, a cold light was shining in his eyes.Ji Yun's current status is still on the list of Zhong Min, and he was unhappy to hear that his words were not rude, and he didn't even discuss it, so he turned around and asked: "Brother Shi, what do you think?" "I also want to hear how Yu Zhongtang's supply of Wuhu Road will be arranged." Fukang'an sat still, and said with a smirk: "At that time, Liu Sikou was besieged in Huangluji, and I was in Qufu on behalf of the emperor. To my place, 250 soldiers from the Jiangnan camp stationed in Yanzhou were transferred, plus servants from the Fu Yamen, Sishui County Yamen, and my relatives, Ma Qi, a total of 500 people. The salary is borrowed by me. Yes, the responsibility is also mine, so I am very concerned." Yu Minzhong's eyelids twitched quickly: "What? Five hundred people, fifty thousand salary?!" The smile on Fukang'an's face did not change, and he said with a smile: "Yes! Why, is there more?" "It's too much." It was only then that Minzhong noticed that Fu Kang'an's expression was wrong, and the arrogance on his face was undisguised.Of course he knew that Fukang'an was "sacred and generous", but he was a headstrong person by nature. "Keeping upright and not Ananda is a strong song" was the testimonial given to him by Qianlong. He took a breather, and said unhurriedly: "One hundred taels of silver is the property of a well-off family, and the number of meritorious persons killed in battle is only this amount. If you reward silver like this, Sui Hede from Tianshan Mountain, and Zhaohui Hailan Chadu If we do it like this, it will not be enough to sell the Old Summer Palace.” "It is to give the conscripted soldiers a well-off life, and to reward and punish those who died in battle!" Fukang An raised his face and lowered his eyelids, full of the charm of "'just' to push you", his tone was as hard as a nail, and his wording But he refused to be rude: "Yu Zhongtang, the conquest of a large army is different from the raid of a small group. The riot in Sishui County shook the south of Shandong and the west of Lu. Not only the hungry people, but also religious bandits fanned the flames everywhere. I received a report that it was a 'four thousand mob'. When the raid arrived, 20,000 people had already besieged—it was a sea of ​​people! Mulberry forks, kitchen knives, axes, sickles, guillotines, hoes, and picks were held up like a forest! There is such a huge disparity between the enemy and us, what can the soldiers be encouraged to use if they don’t throw money away? When the money was paid, I shouted, "Give rewards according to the rules of death in battle, and rush to that high platform to kill people!" To be honest, I still have fears that Xu's money will be less! The White Lotus Sect Incense Hall is assembled, and the imperial court will spend millions of treasury silver to calm down!" Everyone was dazzled and palpitated at this moment. Li Shiyao thought of Liu Yong's work in Tianjie and confirmed what Fu Kang'an said, and couldn't help sighing: "Shandong people are really hard to mess with." How can you take it lightly?" Fukang'an said: "If you want people to sacrifice their lives, you can't begrudge the money for their lives—this is Fukang'an's regulations." Yes, this matter is done quickly and cleanly. It is not only a military strategy, but also eliminates chaos at the beginning, cuts violence at the moment, saves big money by turning small money, and has political and economic methods.” , glanced at Ji Yun and Yu Minzhong, and leaned back, "The country uses troops in the west, and the Central Plains can't catch fire in the backyard. This time when I go to Shandong, except for Surabaya, the rest of the state capitals mainly focus on relief. It seems to be a waste of money." , In the long run, it will be saved.” "It sounds thrilling." Yu Minzhong laughed at himself, "But Wuhu's money should be paid according to the amount. It's not that I'm being stingy, there are too many places to spend money, and it's too late to worry when the money is stretched. Shandong Don’t make any noise about the incident, it’s just some clowns jumping around and making trouble, what kind of situation can the mob become? Not only Shandong, but also Jiangxi, Guizhou, Shanxi, Henan, and Huaibei. In what year will they not save hundreds of trillions of food? Your Majesty Rende exempts taxes every year, the treasury will naturally decrease, and the expenses will increase every year without a bottom or a head. Last time I saw the emperor, he repeatedly warned me that I can't eat the rations every year, and I have no choice but to do so." Everyone knows that the imperial court spends a lot of money.But Fukang'an didn't know what to do when he heard it.Who is "fearful"?What is the "rabble" again?Thrilling but also a "really"!Everywhere seems to be saying that he is grandiose and sensational, because he sneered: "There are some things that you will never understand when you sit in the Imperial Academy, and you will still be ignorant when you sit in the military plane. What's the matter? The national treasury is empty, the people are extremely poor, who is eating the money? You should ask those black-hearted officials! If you can't rectify the government, the people will not be able to survive and the country will not be able to survive. I'm afraid it's enough to scan the storerooms of the governors of other provinces. I have followed Hurd to train with my father for many years, and I know him very well. He is not a liar. Please pay attention to me. "While looking at his watch, he got up and took a drink of tea, "my father is seriously ill, and he dare not waste his time serving the soup and medicine, so please stay with him." Hugged to everyone, picked up his feet and left.Seeing everyone sitting in embarrassment, He Shen got up with a smile and said, "I will send you off on behalf of Mr. Chongru." Then he came out and saw Fu Kang'an standing at the gate of the east courtyard, standing upright and shouting: "Hu Kejing, prepare the horse for me." !" Turning around, he said to He Shen again: "Don't dare to labor to send each other off, the two prime ministers are on top, you go back and accompany them!" As he said, Hu Kejing had led the horse out, and went out. "Fourth Master, don't be angry. I'm listening. It's a misunderstanding." Fukang'an took a long step, and He Shen followed at a trot, and hurriedly apologized, "If Fu Kang'an Zhongtang and Gui Zhongtang are here, so there is no way they will be born. Ji Zhongtang has always been in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and Yu Zhongtang is a novice. He is good in martial arts, but he is really ignorant in military affairs. He just came to the military plane, not only can't manage affairs If there are omissions, you have to make achievements to establish your prestige. Fourth Master, you have to fulfill him..." "Pooh!" "Look, look, are you still angry?" "He just underestimates people, thinking that I'm just Fu Heng's son, the emperor's nephew! If you want this kind of person to lead troops, if the enemy doesn't come up, you'll have to kill yourself Goshha first!" "I don't dare to say that there is no such thing as snobbery. The queen is dead and the father-in-law is sick! Although I don't think so, there are things where respect has diminished. I don't think there is nothing wrong with Ji Zhongtang. Yu Zhongtang feels uncomfortable. Yi Jian is muttering about things, and his words are not good for others. You can hear it. It's just to suppress your arrogance. I'm sure you don't have any other thoughts. Fourth Master also has some indiscretions in his speech today, isn't that right? Because the old father at home is seriously ill, and the official business here is not going well-so I said that when an unhappy person meets an unhappy person, there are other angers in his heart, and it is natural for him to talk negatively." "Joke, what's wrong with me?" "...you said... the princes are to blame. Yu is a newcomer to the military aircraft, and the chief assistant minister of the military aircraft is still your lord!" This really picked out "indiscretion", and it was picked upright and impeccable-Fu Kang'an stood still, looked at the two large beige watermelon lanterns swaying in the wind at the gate of the Ministry of Justice, hissed, and said : "They have such intentions, it can be seen that they are not upright and gentlemen, not good material - Lao He, you go to Shandong, give me a hard treatment! Don't be afraid, don't be soft-handed, just be fair, don't care if he suffers or not! What Cathay, Yu易简，只管拾掇——要我说话，我就到皇上跟前给你说！” “四爷，我有直奏皇上之权，一定尽心办理。”和珅说道，天色太暗了，看不清他是什么脸色神气
