The New Year's Eve of the first year of Yongzheng was not very lively. Even if the filial piety was not over, even if there was no white paper in the palace, people's hearts have not yet come out of the haze of the late emperor's death. Even their smiles are reserved for fear of laughing too much. Recklessly making people look at it is a trick.

On the [-]th night, there was only a family banquet in the palace. After the fourth master's brothers learned that not only did they not have a title, but they had to work, and not only did they have to pay back the money, they all felt ashamed.Especially Yinyou, who has gone to the Ministry of Household Affairs now, how comfortable he was with the protection of the late emperor a few years ago, how unlucky he is now.

Outside, it doesn't matter whether he likes it or not, it is a great grace for the emperor to mention him to the household department at this time, and everyone rushes to him, just wanting to ask if the money can be delayed for a while.Or just go to him to inquire about the news, whether the court is short of money or not? What is the emperor's attitude in such a hurry?

The old courtiers, who were used to living a good life under the late emperor, were not sure how the fourth master, the new emperor, took the throne, and whether the tricks he was using now were to scare people or they wanted to be real.

What's more, the banner owners and commanders in the Eight Banners also take turns to go to the Ministry of Households to bother Yinyou. Their kind of aristocratic families don't borrow much money, but their noses are better. As stingy as before, the life of the Eight Banners will be difficult in the future.

Yinyou almost didn't bother them to death, Zuo Xing'er came up and put up a sign at the door of the household department: Prince Chun is dying, and he has to go to the palace to find the emperor.

Putting this sign out can be regarded as a joke for the common people in Sijiu City, only Yinyou is as stable as Mount Tai in the yamen.He has a perverse temper, but he is by no means a person who does not know good and bad. The king of Zhijun wanted to jump out of the mansion but was suppressed by the emperor. The military department is now in charge of the fifth brother, and the household department gave him that plan. Money and soldiers It must be in the hands of one's own people.

Don't look at the 14th and [-]th people ostentatiously, the emperor asks them to handle any big or small matters, there is no place in the capital where they don't show their faces, but if you want to talk about the family's affairs seriously, you have to be yourself and the fifth child What matters is what's in your hands.

With this understanding, Yinyou's complaints are nothing but complaints, but he is also unequivocal when he manages the account books of the accounting department.After seeing it all, I became more and more frightened, and understood why my fourth brother insisted on offending all the civil and military officials and brothers of the Manchu Dynasty as soon as he came to the throne.

It is true that the national treasury is really out of money. Before the death of the late emperor, he exempted Shandong and Jiangnan from taxes for two years. The old man became a good man and walked away, leaving behind his son and even the money for the funeral. Those who come out, if you don't try to rule the old officials who rely on the old and sell the old in the court, you can only drink the northwest wind with the big guys.

For this reason, Yinyou looked particularly ashamed at the New Year's Eve family banquet. Even the hand holding the wine glass was two points heavier than usual. It seemed that the other clansmen who wanted to get close to each other and the emperor's close officials who had the grace to go to the banquet were a little bit He hesitated, afraid that this master Zuo Xing'er would come up and say a few more words in front of so many people, that would be unbearable.

"Lao Qi, what's the matter, there's something wrong with the drooping face of the New Year's Eve." It's just that other people don't poke the firecrackers, and someone pokes, the fourth master sits on the top and looks at this younger brother, and then thinks about the old note he secretly handed into the palace the day before yesterday, There is a calculation in my heart.

"If you go back to the emperor, my brother has something to worry about, so don't ask about it, so as not to disturb your good mood for the New Year."

Otherwise, it would be true at any time to say that those who are favored are confident and fearless. Because of leg problems, Yinyou has never been destined for the throne since he was a child, but he was also given preferential treatment by the first emperor since he was a child.If you say this to someone else, there are no rules or rules, but no one was surprised when Yinyou said it, but everyone lowered their heads and waited to see how fourth master would fight this younger brother.

"Oh? Tell me what's on your mind, maybe I can solve your problems for you." The fourth master was also so cheap that he wanted to put the firewood on the shelf. Jinyu looked at him like that and felt that he hated him so much that he lit the fire himself. all.

"Your majesty, my ministers are worried about the imperial court. The household department and the national treasury have long run out of money. Your majesty has issued an order to recover the debt owed by the household department, but none of the people in the court take it seriously. The younger brother went to sniff out the news, trying to hide the debt.

Youdao is the great grace of the emperor. When I first rewarded you, I didn’t see you pushing three-five-six. Now I don’t want to ask you to contribute one by one. Why use it? "

Yinyou's words were so blatant that all the clan ministers and ministers in the hall drooped their heads in embarrassment, but there were also some stubborn people who didn't fear Yinyou, and dared to retaliate sullenly. Why should this debt be paid to you princes Baylor? Do not pay back first.

"Repay, why not. See, this is your grandfather's and my IOU. I just went to the household department to repay the money yesterday. This is called no debt and a light New Year. See it clearly, don't turn your head and deny it .”

This time it was Yinti who jumped out to speak. After Jinyu left a message with the queen mother last time, the queen turned around and called Wan Yan into the palace. Also leaving the palace was the 20 taels of silver bills subsidized by the Empress Dowager in private. Yinzhen received the subsidy and also got the wish of the Fourth Master to go to the west in the coming year, but he was unwilling to be the first one to go to the household department to pay back the money.

Yinzhen shook the IOU he signed at the beginning and the receipt newly written to him by the Ministry of Households, and the faces of the people in the hall were extremely exciting.Some thoughtfully planned to pay back the money, and some looked around to see what everyone was planning, while others wanted to stretch their heads a little bit more without making a sound.

But no matter what it is, this scene has always been sung to the bottom of everyone's heart, and it also makes people know that this is not a joke. If you dare to ask for debts at a family banquet on New Year's Eve, this emperor is probably really a person who knows everything. Master who can do it.

The undercurrents of the previous dynasty surged and the harem did not stop, but Fourth Master and Jinyu both knew that this was the only way to go, and no one would be convinced if the new emperor did not smooth out this situation.For this reason, Jinyu also bears a lot of pressure. There are always family members of ministers and clans begging her to come to her, either because of the money or because of the rank.

At this time, no one remembered the rule that the harem should not interfere in politics. They only knew that the empress had been living behind the Hall of Mental Cultivation since she entered the palace. Maybe it will happen.

For this reason, not only Jinyu has no quiet time all day long, but even Ulanara's family sent letters in, saying that the current Cheng'en Gong's mansion dare not even open the door, and their elder brother and the others only dare to sneak in and out through the corner door , afraid of being caught and unable to escape.

But even so, the concierge and the outside of the house were still full of gifts from someone who didn't know. It was only now that my eldest brother and second brother understood why the fourth master had not given real power to the Ulanara family before.

However, Cheng Engong's mansion with a false title is so full of flowers and flowers that people can't help but feel dizzy. If they are really given a real power and rich job, it will be over if they accidentally step into the wrong house.

After all, it is Jin Yu's mother's family. When she was outside the palace before, Jin Yu went home to see Lao Fujin from time to time. Lao Fujin is now in her [-]s. To put it bluntly, it means that she sees Lao Fujin once less .After entering the palace, it is no better than being outside the palace, except for two letters delivered by someone, there is no other contact.

After the new year, the fourth master decided to take Lao Fujin into the palace to see his daughter. Sitting in a sedan chair all the way into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, even Aixinjue Luo, who had seen a lot all his life, was a little flustered until he arrived at the Yangxin Palace. Seeing Jinyu at the back of Xindian, he calmed down and kowtowed to pay his respects.

"Er Niang, what kind of empress is the empress? If you call me that, I won't be able to sleep tonight." Er Niang was naturally happy to see Jinyu, the only thing that was not happy was that the old lady kowtowed as soon as she entered the door. It made her feel uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, you have to call it that way whether you can sleep or not. You child is still too willful, and you can do everything according to your own temperament." Aixinjue Luoshi took the girl's hand and looked up and down, confirming that the girl entered the room. Gong didn't suffer any hardships, so she was relieved, "Ma'am, are you still living here after the Chinese New Year?"

The fact that the empress lives in the Hall of Mental Cultivation has become a rarity that everyone in Sijiu City knows about. Some teahouses even compiled this story into a story as a book, and the gentleman with better morals can only make up some love stories for the empress. Affectionate, some are in order to earn a few more coins, Jinyu is only short of becoming a demon queen who can turn clouds and rain in their mouths.

"No, where can I live if I don't live here?" When she first entered the palace, Jinyu also wanted to move to Chuxiu Palace, not for anything else, but she always felt that she must have her own place after staying for so long , now that I have been in the palace for a long time, I realize that fourth master is more thoughtful.

This Forbidden City is really too big. It is said that there is only one palace separated, but in fact it is really far away, and it takes a long time to pass through and pass things. Whatever you want to do, as long as there are no outsiders, Jinyu can go there and come back as the fourth master. Anyway, come here as you feel comfortable.If you really move out, this friendship will go away.

"Grandma, Erniang is someone who came here and knew that you and the emperor are on good terms, but you don't even have a name behind it. I heard them say that the one behind the Hall of Mental Cultivation is behind the Hall of Mental Cultivation. This is outrageous. Now is a good time It's easy to say, in case something bad happens one day, I don't even have a palace of my own."

As soon as Jinyu said this, she suddenly had no words to refute. The place where she lives now is, to put it bluntly, the east corner room behind the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so what can she say?There is everything in the house, but it is true that it is not as grand as the big palace from the outside.

When Aixinjue Luo looked at her daughter, she knew that she was moved by what he said. When the fourth master took time to come back to eat with his mother-in-law at noon, the old lady said this to the fourth master again in another way. It seemed that if Jin Yu lived in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he would delay Fourth Master's world affairs.

"Old Fujin is right. I was negligent about this matter." It's just that the fourth master is so shrewd. Hearing Aixinjue Luo's words, how could he not know what she meant? Not only did he not nod to let Jinyu move to the harem, Instead, they called Su Peisheng to pass down the oral order, and from now on the back of the Hall of Mental Cultivation where the empress lived would be called Tishun Hall, which was officially given to the empress to live in.

Jinyu saw Fourth Master so sluggish, covering his mouth and holding back his laughter, his stomach ached, so he couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch Fourth Master's thigh twice, and only gasping for breath when he saw Long Live Master baring his teeth in pain Evened out.

Naturally, these little actions could not escape Aixinjueluo's eyes, and there was no need to talk about what I had been full of, so let's talk about what will happen in the future.
