The world is majestic

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly stepped forward and reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about? These are the four beiles and the eight beiles. Why don't you hurry up and greet the two beiles."

Hearing this, Liu Qi glanced at Yinhu in disbelief, and quickly leaned over to salute, "I have seen Si Baylor, I have seen Eight Baylor, and just now I have spoken without words, I hope the two Baylors will not take offense."

Yinhu smiled and stepped forward to help him, and said with a little apology: "The situation was limited that day, so I couldn't tell the truth to my lord, it was not intentional to deceive, my lord should not mind it."

Liu Qi had already guessed the identities of countless 'Ai Zhen', from the eunuch's young master to the general's son, he knew in his heart that this Ai Zhen's background was by no means an ordinary person.It's just that he didn't expect that he was actually a nobleman, the current Babeile.And the place where the two met again was actually the yamen of the Ministry of Industry. Liu Qi felt joyful and complicated at the moment, but now that the status of the two is very different, how could he accept Yinhu's gift?Thinking of this, Liu Qi hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "How dare you, my subordinate, Babeile also said that it is due to the situation, and it is also for the people of Jiangxi."

"Master Liu is really young and promising, and now he has become an official servant," Yinhu said to Liu Qi with a smile, "In the future, when I am in the Ministry of Industry, I will have to ask him for advice."

"Where is it, Babeile is really polite."

Yinzhen watched the two people's comings and goings with cold eyes from the side, talking and laughing, coughed lightly twice and said to Yinhu: "Since this lord is an old acquaintance with you, then I can rest assured .It's getting late, so I'll leave first." As he spoke, he made a gesture to leave.

Seeing this, Yinhu hesitated for a moment, although he was annoyed at what Yinzhen did on the carriage just now, but he was always good-natured, and now he was happy to meet Liu Qi, which diluted a lot of his anger just now.So he followed Yinzhen and said, "Let me send fourth brother off."

When the two of them walked outside the yamen, Yinzhen suddenly lowered his voice and said, "It's really interesting that you got that alias."

"Ah? What?" Yinhu couldn't react when he said it so suddenly, and asked inexplicably, "What's wrong with the alias?"

"Ai Zhen... Ai Zhen, does the eighth brother carelessly plant the shade?" Yinzhen had a smile in his eyes, and his tone was slightly teasing, deliberately emphasizing the pronunciation of the two characters.

Only then did Yinhu understand, and seeing the smile in Yinzhen's eyes, Yinhu hurriedly argued: "This... I just said it casually at the time, and didn't think so much about it..."

"Oh... Just said it casually, and you remembered my name?"

The eighth elder brother, who has always been eloquent and eloquent, was completely blocked by these words. Yinhu just felt that any defense now seemed extremely powerless. Seeing Yinzhen's determined smile, Yinhu could only whisper: "Fourth brother believes Believe it or not, anyway... anyway, I didn't think so much at the time..."

Seeing him frowning and defending himself in a serious manner, Yinzhen couldn't help but feel amused, and lightly raised the corner of his mouth and said to Yinhu: "It's okay for you to be stubborn, as long as I understand. It's alright, fourth brother is leaving first, you can go in quickly .”

After Yinhu sent Yinzhen away dumbfounded, he went back to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry saw that he and Liu Qi were old acquaintances, so he simply asked Liu Qixian to talk to Yinhu about some daily official affairs.Liu Qiyin also took office not long ago, so he talked to Yinhu roughly.

The engineering department is divided into the four divisions of Dushui, Tuntian, Yuheng, and Yingxiu. In addition to the fourth division, there is also a factory in charge of manufacturing honor guards such as Shengshang Cheluan and a material estimation office in charge of the quantity of materials.All official affairs such as civil engineering, water conservancy, weaving and smelting of the country are handled by the Ministry of Industry, and daily dredging and construction in various places are also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry.

"I'm afraid there are more trivial things in normal times, but the Ministry of Industry is the one that has the greatest relationship with the people among the six departments. Compared with the other several departments, it is more pragmatic." Liu Qi was afraid that Yinhu would not tolerate the trivial matters of the Ministry of Industry Complicated, I added this sentence after I finished speaking.

"Lord Liu and I are old acquaintances and we have been through the same business, so there is no need to be so cautious." Yinhu smiled and put down the list of officials from the Ministry of Industry in his hand, and said to Liu Qiwen, "When did Master Liu transfer to work?" Department? Where did you work before?"

Liu Qi saw that his attitude was gentle and modest, without Baylor's airs, so he was no longer as restrained as before, and said with Yinhu: "The chief secretary who served in Shanxi for a year, later offended the governor of Shanxi, and moved to the left. When he came to Yunnan and Guizhou to participate in politics, he was recommended by Mr. Tong Guowei, and then he was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he only took office for more than a month."

After hearing what he said, Yinhu's eyes lit up, and he asked Liu Qi: "The governor of Shanxi that Mr. Liu mentioned is Kari?"

Liu Qi nodded, and a look of displeasure appeared on Ruya's face: "Galli was in office in Shanxi, and he searched for people's fat, people's cream, fish and meat, and several important county officials in Shanxi are his confidantes. I have repeatedly written letters to impeach him. It didn’t work out, after Gali found out about this, he demoted me to Yunnan, and I heard that the censor impeached him a few days ago, but nothing happened.”

"Gali has been quite a holy family these years, and is appreciated by the crown prince's blue eyes. Naturally, he can cover the sky with one hand in Shanxi. It's just that he was able to retreat unscathed in the face of impeachment by the censor a few days ago. This person is not shrewd." Yin Yin Si and Liu Qi were sitting in armchairs in the room, there were only two of them in the room, and he was well aware of Liu Qi's character, so he didn't shy away from it, and said straight to the point: "Your Excellency has a noble character, it's only natural that you don't like it. It's just that my lord was too reckless, Yunnan is a place of poverty, and my lord must have suffered a lot in the past year."

Liu Qi was quite annoyed when he talked about this matter, and said with a wry smile: "It can only be said that the subordinates are asking for trouble, but after spending so much effort, Gali is still domineering in Shanxi, just thinking about it It's hard to calm down."

Yinhu smiled and took a sip of the teacup, and said leisurely: "Your Excellency, don't worry, as the saying goes, the sky net is full and sparse, and Kari does a lot of evil, even if we can't bear him now, sooner or later, he will fall from the horse. "

Liu Qi saw what he said calmly and firmly, so he also nodded and said: "I hope so." Fu recalled something and asked: "Babeile first came to the Ministry of Industry, and the Holy Majesty didn't give any errands. What are your plans?"

Yinhu smiled and said, "I'm still young and have no experience in the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. Naturally, I should first learn from the adults."

Liu Qiwen nodded and said: "Even so, after a while, I will ask the little official to bring some recent papers to Babeile. Although the matter is small and trivial, it is not difficult to get started. Babeile is talented and intelligent, so he must be able to master it very quickly.

Yinhu responded with a smile, and then asked Liu Qi: "I have a predestined relationship with Mr. Liu. I wonder if Mr. Liu has words?"

"The official name is Ziqian."

"In this way, when there is no one in private, I will not address you as an adult, and I will just call you humble."

Liu Qi suddenly felt a little flattered, and quickly thanked: "Thanks to Babeile's love."

Yinhu smiled and said to him warmly: "I admire Ziqian for your character and talent, why should Ziqian be polite to me?"

His deliberate wooing of Liu Qi is not only to cherish this person's upright virtue, but also to know that he has a great talent in his heart, so he intends to recruit him as a confidant to make great use of him.

When Yinhu returned to Babeile Mansion, Hui Ning had already been waiting in the hall, seeing him coming in, he quickly went up to meet him, changed his court clothes for him, and ordered the chef to bring the food.Yinhu saw several dishes on the table, hawthorn jerky, fried asparagus with lily, longan pheasant stew, and a fish soup, all of which were exquisite and delicious, smiled and said to Hui Ning: "Today's dish is good, Look at it and you will have an appetite."

Hui Ning smiled after hearing this, and said softly: "This fish soup is made of fresh sea bass, and now it's almost winter, so it's the best time to eat sea bass. Please taste it while it's hot. It's good to eat." Then he took a chopstick of fish soup and put it in Yinhu's bowl.

Yinhu smiled and picked it up and used it, praised: "It's really fresh and tender, you put so much care in the food, how can I thank you?"

Hui Ning pursed his lips and smiled softly, "This is what I should do, how dare I ask you to thank me? I'm going to the Ministry of Industry today, everything is going well?"

"Everything is fine, you don't have to worry about it for me. Didn't you enter the palace today to greet Er Niang? How is Er Niang?"

Hui Ning added a look of worry on his face, and said softly: "Since autumn, Er Niang's cough has become more and more severe. I went to the palace today and saw that Er Niang still didn't get better. The imperial doctor only said it was Yin. Deficiency disease, in addition to slowly recuperating, there is still nothing to do."

Yinhu was taken aback when he heard the words, and suddenly lost his mind when looking at the dishes on the table. In the previous life, the concubine Liang's body was also inappropriate, but in this life, the physical illness came much earlier. Yinhu knew that in this life Many things have changed, if the concubine Liang...Yinhu hurriedly dismissed this idea, and told Huining: "I have an errand now, so I can't serve you every day. You should go and see Erniang more often It's good to talk with her, this disease must be cured gradually, so don't make Erniang feel bored."

Hui Ning naturally knew about it, and after answering, he thought about what happened during the day today, hesitated for a while and said to Yinhu: "Er Niang also mentioned something to me today, saying that we have never had any children, thinking... ...Thinking about putting another person in the mansion." Seeing that Yinhu was silent, she hurriedly said: "Er Niang said, this Wang family is very honest and responsible, her father is Wang Pu, a member of the Ministry of Rites, and the first family Not high. Er Niang asked me what I meant, and I agreed, as long as the master nods here, I will go back and answer Er Niang."

After hearing this, Yinhu frowned and said, "I don't intend to take a concubine, you go and take care of it for me."

Hui Ning was very embarrassed, lowered his head and said softly: "Er Niang may be sick these days, and she has become more and more concerned about her children, the Lord asked me to push this matter now... I'm afraid Er Niang Mother is not happy." Besides, it is true that she has nothing to do all the time. When Concubine Liang told her about this matter, although she was not happy, she had nothing to do. Can't stop Yinhu from taking concubines.

Yinhu said lightly: "If you are not easy to speak, then I will return to Erniang myself in another day." In the last life, Haizhu was hot-tempered and he was not allowed to take concubines, but in the end he couldn't resist Kangxi personally bestowing two concubines. From then on, it was even harder for Haizhu to have a happy face.In this life, Hui Ning is gentle and virtuous, she thinks carefully for herself everywhere, she is a rare good woman, although Yinhu is not in love with her, but she respects her very much, and she doesn't want to wrong Hui Ning by accepting a newcomer because of her heir.

And when Yinhu went to greet Concubine Liang the next day, Concubine Liang really mentioned it to him, Yinhu just smiled and refused: "My son and Hui Ning are still young, why should Er Niang be in a hurry?"

Concubine Liang's complexion turned yellow due to illness, and her voice was obviously weak, she took Yinhu's hand and said, "Er Niang has been in poor health these days, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait to see your successor, er Mother is going to let go."

"Er Niang!" Yinhu held Concubine Liang's hand tightly, frowned and said, "Er Niang is just a little hypocritical, how can she be so powerful? If this is an unlucky word, Er Niang must never say it again."

Concubine Liang's soft and beautiful face looked weak, she coughed twice and said: "Emiang's own body is clear to herself, Emiang has grown up from her infancy, and it is an honor to be able to live today, but Emiang is only your son , Hui Ning is good, but you have been married for more than a year, and there is no movement... How can Er Niang not be in a hurry?"

Yinhu is the most filial, and seeing this, she couldn't bear to disobey Concubine Liang's wishes, so she complied with her wishes and accepted Wang as his concubine.Hui Ning has always been gentle and submissive, so naturally he would not say anything, and Wang Shi is a cautious and quiet character, and respects Hui Ning wholeheartedly, so the two get along peacefully.
