[Qing Chuan] Koi Little Promise

Yinti took the file and went to find Yinti without saying a word.

Knowing that he was coming, Yinti showed surprise on his face, he glanced at the little eunuch who came to inform, "Let him in."

He also has something to discuss with Yinzheng.

Ling Pu's words before he died caused him a lot of trouble. Yinti had a clear conscience, but he was afraid that people would think too much. Now that Yinti came by himself, it saved him an extra trip.

"Big brother."

As soon as he entered the room, Yinti greeted Yinti with a smile all over his face.

Seeing his expression, Yinti breathed a sigh of relief, and stood up with a smile, "Sixth brother, why are you here?"

"I came to see elder brother because I have something to discuss with elder brother."

Yin You spoke softly, and he said: "Recently, my fourth brother and I heard about something, and felt that it should not be ignored, but fourth brother and I couldn't think of a good way to solve it for a while, so I thought that you are old and experienced, elder brother. I want your help to give me an opinion."

Yinti felt a little proud of Yinyou's flattering words.

But he was not so stupid as to take Yinyou's words seriously, but said with a smile: "Sixth brother, you are being polite. If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Then I'll say it straight."

Yinyou scratched the back of his head, and said: "My fourth brother and I heard that the crown prince had bought and sold official positions during his supervision of the country. We thought it was just a rumor, but when my fourth brother and I investigated, we found some clues. "

After he finished speaking, he took out the file from his sleeve and handed it to Yinti.

Yinti looked at Yinzhen with a puzzled face. He took the file and opened it for a look. After seeing clearly what was written in the file, his pupils shrank involuntarily, "This is?!"

"That's right, big brother, this is the proof." Yinyou said slyly with the corners of his lips curled up.

Yinti looked at Yinyou, and after the two looked at each other for a while, Yinti laughed loudly, and he patted Yinyou's shoulder, "Okay, good boy, you really have grown up now."

"Brother is too famous." After noticing that Yinti's strangeness had faded, Yinti said a word modestly with satisfaction.

a few days later.

A doggerel was circulated in the capital, and this doggerel was so catchy that children in the streets and alleys could learn to sing it.

"It is said that there is Li Dingshan in the east. He does not know how to read or write. His parents shook their heads when they saw it, but now he is a high-ranking official. This is said to be a thousand and ten thousand, and it is all the trouble of the money. The money is really powerful. You can call a stupid pig a genius."

This doggerel was neither fish nor fowl, but once it was sung, everyone in the capital knew it within a few days.

How can the censors who have always been good at hearing this doggerel sit still?

They went to inquire about the origin of the doggerel one after another, and after a search, they found Li Dingshan, the Ministry of Industry.

this afternoon.

More than a dozen memorials flew to Kangxi's desk like snowflakes.

When Kangxi read the memorial, his face was green.

Wait until the next day.

In the early morning, Li Dequan had just finished saying "play if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do", when a censor couldn't wait to stand up.

The person who stood up was none other than Guo Xiu.

Guo Xiu has an upright character, and he is a veteran of the imperial court. In 27 years, he played the governor of the river, Jin Fu, and Mingzhu, and he has a good reputation.This time he heard the rumors in the alley, so he ordered people to investigate the situation early.

Once confirmed, Guo Xiu went directly to the memorial without saying a word.

"Long live my lord, I have a book to play!"

Guo Xiu is not young anymore, he is already in his early years, but his voice is full of spirit.

"What is Guo Qing going to play?" Kangxi asked.

Guo Xiu held the wat board in his hand, and he said straight to the point: "I want to report that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has misbehaved. He took advantage of the period of supervising the country, and Long Live Lord was not in the capital to buy and sell officials."

Yinfeng's expression changed.

He subconsciously scolded: "You are talking nonsense! How can Gu do such a thing?"

"His Royal Highness, don't rush to refute. Even if you don't know about this matter, it may not have nothing to do with your subordinates."

Guo Xiu's tone didn't soften at all, he said sonorously, "Right now in the capital, even an illiterate white man can be an official, and I'm afraid that sooner or later, as long as someone pays enough money, even a boar can be an official." official."

Guo Xiu's words were so pungent, but those censors screamed in their hearts.

The other elder brothers also felt as if they drank a bowl of iced sour plum soup in the summer, and felt extremely comfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

"I've already seen the memorial."

Kangxi said, and he said in a solemn tone: "Guo Qing has done his duty faithfully, and has investigated this matter thoroughly. Someone, pass on Li Dingshan."

Yinfeng's face changed slightly, he really didn't know about it.

Although he acquiesced in the matter of buying and selling official positions, but he has so many things to do every day, how could it be possible to ask about this matter one by one?

Yinfeng couldn't help but cast a questioning look at Suo'etu.

He is in the palace, how can he know everything that happened outside?

Suo'etu should have told him about this, but Suo'etu was no less confused and shocked than Yinrong.

These days are not easy for him. Once Ling Pu dies, he has to rearrange many things. In this busy process, he ignores the changes outside.

And the people below are probably watching that the two big bosses have nothing to do, and each of them still has lingering fears about Ling Pu's death, so how dare they make trouble again?

All of a sudden, Yinti, Yinzhen and the others did the calculations intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Dingshan was escorted to the Golden Luan Hall.

His legs were trembling, and he was almost unable to stand. Rather than saying that he walked up, it would be more appropriate to say that he was dragged up.

"You are Li Dingshan?"

Kangxi asked calmly.

Li Dingshan was so afraid that his teeth chattered, he replied tremblingly: "The criminal is Li Dingshan."

"Oh, you call yourself a criminal minister, so what are you guilty of?"

Kangxi asked back.

Li Dingshan was timid, and now he was on the Golden Luan Hall as a sinner, he was so frightened that he lost his courage, he said in a panic, "It is the sinner's fault that he shouldn't buy an official!"

Hey!

Quite a few people had strange expressions on their faces.

A smile flickered across Yinti's eyes, the prince really did nothing this time.

Even Li Dingshan himself admitted it, so can it be fake?

Yinfeng was angry and angry in his heart, he clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could kill that Li Dingshan.

Such courage, dare to buy an official? !

"You are honest."

Kangxi was laughed out of anger.

He raised his chin and said, "Tell me, how did you buy it as an official?"

Li Dingshan didn't dare to tell lies, he stammered and said: "The guilty minister heard from his brother-in-law that he could buy an official position for only 3 taels of silver. It is said that he is the prince's confidant. At first, the guilty minister thought he was a liar, but later he did not expect that he actually bought it. Thinking about it now, he might as well be a liar."

Li Dingshan regretted it in his heart. If he knew this was a U-turn business, he shouldn't have done it in the first place!

"Oh, you dare to say anything."

Kangxi was amused, this man is really a fool, he dared to say such words in the Golden Luan Hall, I really don't know if he is brave or cowardly.

"In front of the Lord Long Live, how dare the guilty officials tell lies?" Li Dingshan said flatteringly,

"Okay, just shut up."

Kangxi waved his hand and said angrily.

This man is really a big fool, and he can't complain about being caught.

"twitter!"

Li Dingshan was halfway through his answer when he suddenly realized that he quickly covered his mouth.

Someone in the hall couldn't help but sneered.

"Prince, you heard what Li Dingshan said, what do you have to say?"

Kangxi looked at the prince with calm eyes, neither angry nor sad.

There was a feeling of emptiness in Yinreng's heart, and he reluctantly replied: "Huang Ama, this matter is because my minister is not strict in governing, and my minister asks Huang Ama to punish him!"

Although he was unwilling in his heart, he also knew that he had no other choice.

With the testimony of Li Dingshan and the white aides, even if the prince wanted to defend himself, he couldn't open his mouth.

Up to now, I can only admit it honestly.

Kangxi took a deep look at the prince.

He closed his eyes, then opened them, and said slowly: "The crown prince is supposed to be loyal to his duties, but he is not strict in governing the country. He made such jokes and doesn't care about state affairs at all. Now he is punishing the crown prince Yu Yuqing." The palace confines for half a year and is not allowed to go out, and Yinzhen is ordered to investigate the matter strictly, and no one involved will be let go."

"Yes!"

Yinfeng and Yinzhen answered in unison.

But of these two people, one has a low tone, and the other has a high attitude.

This punishment can be described as a tragic blow to the princelings.

After this incident, the prince's majesty was swept away. Many officials who were originally optimistic about the prince felt that the situation was not right.

Right now, among the dozen or so elder brothers under Long Live Grandpa, the fourth elder brother is the most respected and famous.

Even Han Chen, who has always believed in "establishing a son and establishing a leader", is quite supportive of the fourth elder brother.

Yinzhen's attitude towards these sloppy things is lukewarm.

On the contrary, he promoted several low-level officials to help, many of whom were capable ministers from his previous life.

A month later.

Yinzhen dug out all the people who bought the officials while the crown prince was in charge of the country. He acted meticulously, not only dug out these people, but also those who were in charge of making connections.

As soon as the list was up, the next day, Kangxi mercilessly punished them one by one, executing those who were executed, and those who were exiled.

Most of the people involved in this are the prince's confidantes.

When Yinreng heard the news, he was so angry that he smashed all the decorations in Yuqing Palace.

"You bastard fourth, how dare you take advantage of others!" Gritting his teeth, he thumped the table hard, as if the table was not a table, but the Yinzhen he was talking about.

He Yuzhu and the others dared not speak.

Ever since he was grounded, the prince's temper has grown stronger day by day, and even He Yuzhu has been slapped in the face these days.

The Yuqing Palace lost everything, and had to go to the House of Internal Affairs to collect it later.

Now that Ling Pu is gone, no one can hide it for him.

Kangxi knew about the current situation of Yuqing Palace without inquiring, but he just snorted and didn't say anything about the prince's temper.

But this is enough to show Kangxi's attitude.

There is a saying - there is nothing more sad than death.
