Breeze

After Yinqi heard this, he curled his lips and said with a smile: "Go. Since you came in, I knew you had this idea."

As he spoke, he couldn't help sighing: "Before you were my accompanying student for ten years, and we were always lukewarm during the ten years. It's only been a few months since I came to Shengjing? It's so familiar Yes. When the late emperor chose you to be my reading companion, if he had known that your temperament would be compatible with mine, he would have been able to see thousands of miles away."

Chen Xi just got up, walked to the door, the curtain was lifted, and Zhang Zhenchun had already entered with several plates of snacks.Chen Xi retreated back with a smile, sat down again, and reported to Yin Qi, then pinched a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth.

When he swallowed what was in his mouth, just after Yin Qi's exclamation, Chen Xi flicked the pastry crumbs on his fingers, and said with a smile: "To say something disrespectful, the late emperor must not have expected today. If he The old man knows my virtues, how could he put me next to the prince? I'm afraid it's too late to kick me out."

Yinqi was stunned, and sighed: "It's not a day that you don't remind me. Or do you think that these things of splitting peaches and sleeves are really impressive? You are so comfortable when you say it... ..."

Chen Xi said: "Anyway, the prince didn't dislike me, so I couldn't help but said it twice more. If I say that this is visible to others, but in fact, I just think that I am more eloquent than the old men in the capital who play operas." Well. If I am close to someone, I really like him, not just for his color."

It's not the first time Yinqi heard this, and he was not as surprised as he was when he heard it for the first time, so he just sighed and said: "You just tell me, don't show it outside. "

Chen Xi smiled and said: "I can introspect myself. If it wasn't for being bumped into by the lord outside that time, the lord didn't spurn me. How could I say this to the lord now? It's just that I hid it and held it back. Don't say anything. But since the first time I talked to the prince, I always want to talk to someone from time to time."

Yin Qi pouted: "So, I have to scold you once before I can stop you?"

Chen Xi just smiled, and didn't mention the words just now.It's just talking about how to take turns to rest people on various projects during the Chinese New Year, so as not to arouse complaints, which deviates from what I said just now.

He was originally in the capital as an errand with Yinqi's Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he was already handy in these personnel matters. Yinqi only listened to him, and didn't answer if there were no major mistakes in the arrangement.But I felt a little emotional in my heart, I really didn't know Chen Xi was such a person in the past ten years, or I'm afraid I would have known him long ago.

But after thinking about it, if he learned about Chen Xi's sexual orientation when he was most impatient to think about the confession by Hong Zhou, he would have to be more distant, Yin Qi sighed secretly that he was actually with Chen Xi It is destined.

"...That's it, what does the lord think?" After finishing speaking, Chen Xi looked at Yin Qi.

Yin Qi nodded and said: "That's right. You go back and draw up a document, and then you can come up with a long-term solution based on this. Not only in our yamen, outside Shengjing City, the offices of each banner, but also so many in each station. Workshops and factories will continue to operate like this in the future, and there must be a charter. It starts here."

Chen Xi opened his eyes wide, and said in surprise: "My lord, how does it work? I still think we are newcomers, so everything should be more urgent, and it will be fine in the future. If it is like this for a long time, then everyone has to work hard Dead? This winter in the Northeast, where is the weather for working? I'm afraid there will be rebellions outside."

Yinqi raised his eyebrows, and said: "What do you think we are here for? To hang out? How is that different from being in the capital? We are not here to enjoy the blessings, but to work for a living. No work Yes, let me go back to Beijing and eat their hard-core crops. It’s just that I’m starving to death in Beijing, so don’t bring up things outside the customs or come here to complain.

"And what if I don't know? I can't plant the land in winter, and they can't do the work in the workshop? Is the field open now? Isn't it still in preparation? These words will be said next year!"

When Chenxi lowered his head, Yinqi said again: "Since I came to the outside of the customs, I just want to live a good life, right? The beginning is always difficult, and there are many people who understand this truth. It is not as good as it was when I first came here. How much? If you have the land and the work, you can take care of it. Otherwise, it will be regarded as gold everywhere outside the pass, and you just have to bend over? How can there be such a good thing!"

As he said that, Yinqi put the spoon in his hand on the edge of the bowl, took the teacup from Su Yao, and said, "Even now, I can't just say, who can relax from the busy work these days. Later After you have finished eating, go ask, the banners that are going to be distributed for work, they will be able to pay the bills on the [-]th of this month."

Chen Xi hurriedly asked: "When was the account settled this time?"

Yinqi said: "This is to be self-reliant. How can there be any silver in the future? I'll leave it here for now. When we came out of the capital, we only had three months of money and food. Now we have to keep it." For a month, when it is really impossible to start work in winter, they can live with it. If they can’t pay their bills, don’t say that the Lord is merciless, so that they can’t even live this year. This life is their own life. It's their own business anyway, let them weigh it for themselves."

Only after being able to settle down here and survive here can we consider the issue of the training of the flag soldiers.Yin Qi was indeed afraid of turning the flag soldiers into workers and peasants, who would lose their combat effectiveness.But farmers can at least support themselves, and this is the most important thing to solve in Huitun.It is better to let them be farmers or workers for a while than to let them all starve to death here.

Therefore, even though Yongzheng was a little dissatisfied with Yinqi's focus on production and construction for nearly a year without mentioning military training, Yinqi did not change the current policy even though he was approving the handwritten declaration on the paperwork submitted by Yinqi.At least Prince Yi supports him, and Yin Qi is not worried about whether the court will hinder him for the time being.

After all, the return of the Beijing Banner to the Tunnel has achieved initial results.The area around Shengjing prospered first, and then radiated outward. More than [-] fields were reclaimed in Bodune, Shuangcheng, Lalin, and Alchuka.In addition to self-sufficiency, there is actually a surplus. Yin sighed for the fertility of the black land, and became more confident in the measures he took here.

This year has passed by negligently, and it will be the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.On the twenty-eighth day of November, Yinqi was 16 years old. Everyone in the yamen knew each other well. Whether it was the officials in the palace or the subordinates in the yamen, they were all willing to get closer to Yinqi, so they got together After congratulating once, they gathered again and went to the restaurants in Shengjing City for half a day.

It was only at night that he went out of the city to return to Duanjun Prince's Mansion. Yin Qi didn't expect that Yongzheng still remembered his birthday and sent someone to Shengjing, but actually asked the angel to wait at home for a long time.

Dismounting from the horse and entering the door, he took off the hood when he reached the main room. Yin Qi was about to ask someone to come over to serve him undressed, but two people came out of the hall to greet him. They looked familiar, but upon closer inspection, one of them was actually Huang Peng.Huang Peng laughed when he saw Yinqi, and said: "Your lord has just come back! The servants are waiting desperately."

After the decree was announced, in addition to the words of praise, there was also a list of rewards behind, as a birthday gift.Yin prayed for his kindness and looked at it for a while, but he didn't see anything there.The rewarded coral decorations or white jade ruyis are eye-catching objects, even if they are packed in a box, you should see the piled boxes, but there is nothing here.

Huang Peng laughed and said: "Because they are all precious things, the road here in Shengjing is far away, and it is not easy to walk. I am afraid that they will be bumped and bumped, and they will be damaged. The servants really can't bear it with ten heads. The emperor is sympathetic. I'm sorry, let me move directly to the prince's mansion in the capital. The emperor has another order, and it was the prince Xuan who returned to the capital. I'm afraid it was approved in the book? The prince hasn't seen it yet. I don't know. The emperor said, and the servants will Wait here, and go back with the prince, and I will serve you on the way."

After finishing speaking, he took out another letter from the sleeve and said with a smile: "This is also a private job, it is a letter handed by Fujin before the servants leave the capital, saying that the servants are walking fast, and they can take it with them." Here we come. Fujin can't wait for the prince to send someone back to Beijing."

Yin Qi took it, and said with a smile: "You have all worked hard, and I also want to thank you all. It's late and cold at the moment, father-in-laws go down to have a drink and rest first, and plan to go back tomorrow morning."

I went back to the study and opened the letter. Inside was a thick stack of ten or so sheets of paper. From the beginning to the end, there were really not a few words.The top is crooked, the characters are big and small, the small ones don't mention it, but the big ones look like fists.Yinqi couldn't help laughing when he saw it, it was Harina who finally learned to write Chinese characters.

Earlier, Yinqi had also told her that she didn't need to learn Chinese characters, since Yinqi's Mongolian and Manchu languages ​​were all the same, so she could write in Mongolian.But she is stubborn and unyielding. No matter how difficult it is, she insists on learning Chinese and writing Chinese characters.Yinqi is far away, so he can't control so many things, and now he can really learn a few, which is not easy.

After laughing to himself, Yinqi looked at Harina's letter again, and talked more about her daughter who was only born in February besides Concubine Jing.

Thinking back to the appearance of the little daughter who had never met in the capital, Yinqi sighed, folded the letter again, raised his head and said to Su Yao next to him: "Order it, pack it up. Leave some money here." One honestly looks at the house, and everyone else follows back to the capital, maybe this time, they will have to stay in the capital for a long time."

~~~~~~~

Yinqi didn't think about it in vain, since Yongzheng let Huang Peng come over to preach the decree and announce his return to Beijing, he probably wanted to stay in the capital for a while.Otherwise, it's just a message, there's no need for such a serious announcement.

When I entered Beijing, the people in the capital had just eaten Laba porridge.Yin Qi put down the car curtain, breathed on his hands, and turned around, Chen Xi was peeling chestnuts with his head down.Yin Qi saw that he had finished peeling a chestnut, and then smiled and said: "When I left, I said that the Northeast has become much more prosperous, but when I arrived in the capital, I felt that there was a wilderness over there. After all, it is different."

Chen Xi said: "My lord, this is the end of the first year of Huantun. It's not bad to have such a look. You don't need to worry too much, your lord. With five or six years of hard work, you won't be the same as before." barren land."

Yin Qi leaned on the soft pillow leaning against the wall of the car, and said with a smile: "You are right, we have plenty of time."

First went around to the west of the city, next to Shichahai, and put Chenxi there, Yinqi poked his head out of the car window and said with a smile: "You said you want to scare your family members, so don't make a big fuss, you Ama'eniang's age is put there."

Chen Xi waved his hand at Yinqi, and said with a smile: "First, I wanted to scare my eldest brother, and then slowly told me that Ama Erniang knew. Thank you, Lord, for taking me this way. If you follow my own car, tomorrow I can't come back either."

Yin Qi put down the curtains of the car, with a slight smile on his lips, but his heart suddenly changed from the calmness just now to a little sad.In this capital, who can make him come back in such a hurry as Chen Xi, to meet him?

Although Concubine Jing was missed by Yin Qi, but she knew that she would be fine, so in fact, she would not be too anxious to meet her.Harina is like a little girl, she communicates frequently, so she won't miss her.The newborn daughter, who has never even seen her, is said to be missing, but in fact... how much affection can she have?

There is also Hong Zhou... Yin Qi has never been able to analyze his mood thoroughly. In fact, if he is far away, he can calm down and think carefully, but because he is out of sight, he simply leaves him behind. In the back of my mind.

If it is about Yongzheng... Yinqi sighed and laughed a little.

Really... Between the monarch and his ministers, there are so many misses.

Over the past year or so, I really realized that between Yongzheng and Yongzheng, it is better to be a monarch and minister.Father and elder brother, the so-called empathy, you should keep it in your heart.

The carriage headed east again and passed the Lama Temple, which was Yinqi's mansion outside the palace.Speaking of which, this was the first time he came back here. When he left Beijing, his family hadn't moved back from West Fifth Institute.

After getting out of the carriage, the door of the mansion opened, and many people came out, some of whom Yin Qi knew, some of whom were just familiar, and they were all selected by him before he left Beijing.The person in charge was given by Yongzheng, named Song Lian, and the whole family was allocated under Yinqi's name. Yinqi only met him once or twice, so he just remembered his name.

Entering the mansion, Harina ran out before going through the second gate. It was the first time Yinqi saw that someone was able to run while wearing a flowerpot bottom, so he hurried up to support her, so Harina didn't slip on the ice on the road fall down.Yinqi smiled and said, "What are you in such a hurry for? Are you still afraid that I will run away?"

Harina's cheeks turned red from laughing, and she said directly in Mongolian, "I'm just afraid that you will run away! Come and see our daughter!"

Yinqi was dragged by her from the corridor to the backyard, and only after passing through the Banyue Gate did she pant and say, "Go to Erniang's first, otherwise it doesn't make sense."

After hearing this, Harina stopped quickly, but did not let go of Yinqi's hand, turned around and ran in the opposite direction, saying as she ran, "I'm just in a hurry to show you our Naren Tuoya, and I forgot Ermo hasn't seen you yet. Tell them to carry Naren Toya to Ermo, and you two will meet together!"
