Chapter 1002: Jin Jue (Tears Running for a Monthly Pass)
There doesn't seem to be any crisis in the Sun family, and the Li family's industry in the capital has been sealed.
The situation was so bad that even Li Xu's sixth brother, Li Wei, was arrested for a few days and asked for a confession. Knowing that their brothers had been separated for many years, Li Wei had not worked as an errand in Suzhou Weaving Mansion before he was released.
Li Wei was so bluffed that he didn't dare to come forward again, and he couldn't even fill the gap.
All of this was hidden from the Gao family.
Gao's whole day was eating fasting and reciting Buddha, not popular affairs, and he didn't notice any difference. Only occasionally chatted with the Li family, only the great-nephew Li Cheng was not at ease, hoping that his body and bones would be stronger and he would have children as soon as possible.
When Li listened, he remembered that his eldest nephew Li Nai, who was loyal and honest, was dragged down by his family, and was in prison, which was really pitiful. Thinking of his own happiness, if it weren't for the two generations of her husband and son, the Cao family would be another Li family.
When outsiders mentioned this, Cao Hao also showed a little anxious.
He was busy with the affairs of Tongzhou Yutian, and he cleared a lot. In the eyes of others, I thought that he was worried about the Li family, and he mostly said some comforting words. Behind the scenes, there is no lack of schadenfreude. There are even those who had grievances with the Cao family in the early years, and they are already thinking about how to frame the Cao family by taking advantage of the opportunity of the Li family's crime.
Only Cao Jia's family knows that his brother has never been close to the Li family, and he will never worry about the Li family's affairs. Even if he is worried, he is afraid that he will be implicated in his Cao family.
She made a special trip to call Cao Hao over and asked about the arrangements between Gao Taijun and Li Xiangyu.
Gao Taijun is Li Xu's widowed aunt, even if she has been raised by Li Xu for many years, with the "daughter" of the Li family, she will not be implicated in the relationship; Li Xiangyu is different, she is Li Xu's granddaughter in the room, and she has to be burdened by the family.
The last time the two sisters and brothers met, it was when Nersu first arrived in Beijing at the beginning of the month, and there were many guests at that time, and they didn't say a few words.
I haven't seen him for a month, and Cao Jia's complexion is very different. The last time I saw him, I was also happy, but I was somewhat tired; This time, it looks like he's a few years younger.
She was wearing a cheongsam with a butterfly and peony pattern embroidered on a green background, combing her flag head, and inserting two gold-inlaid eight-treasure hairpins, graceful and pretty, looking like she was in her early twenties, and she was smart, where could she see that she was going to be a mother-in-law.
"This person can't be saved, and even his family can't be saved?" Cao Hao was a little surprised when he saw that his sister was worried about this.
If the sin reaches Xiangyu, there is no reason for Li Cheng and other male grandsons to be spared, in that case, the Li family will really be completely defeated.
Cao Jiashi glanced at him and said, "The Li family is originally the coat of the Internal Affairs Bureau, and if you lose your official title, you will have to serve under the Internal Affairs Office." The small election of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not as old as the general election, and it is also the case that girls enter the palace at the age of seven or eight. If no one pays attention, let's say hello to the Sixteenth Master, and we can make her exempt from the election; Now that the Li family is being watched by the emperor, at this time, we can only watch. The eldest sister's sister said hello in advance, otherwise she would not be able to avoid this. ”
Although Cao Hao doesn't like the Li family, this little Xiangyu has been raised in his own family for several years, and the Li family loves him a lot, and he gets along with the children of the Cao family. Thinking that she is only ten years old, a little older child, and she grew up in fine clothes and jade food, and she wants to enter the palace as a palace maid, which is really unbearable.
"Even if you can't be exempted, can you think of a way to take care of one or two?" Cao Hao asked.
Cao Jiashi smiled: "You don't have to worry about this, the sixteenth master will be measured." He is also a cousin of the Li family, and he has no help to the Li family now, and he will give the Li family some affection in the future. Although Xiangyu is just the granddaughter of the Li family, she was raised in the Cao family. Just for the face of our Cao family, the Sixteenth Master will not stand idly by. ”
Cao Hao thought about it, and this is also the truth.
"Although everything is used outside, in fact, in the final analysis, it is because the Li family was too ostentatious in the early years, and it was a taboo to participate in the royal affairs. Honestly admit his guilt, and when the emperor has exhausted his breath, it will be too peaceful. Tell my mother, don't worry about her, with you and my brother and sister, will it really make the Li family begging for food? Cao Jiashi lowered his voice and said.
She is a royal lady, and if she pays attention to these things, she just feels sorry for the Li family.
Cao Hao responded and said, "I also told my mother these words. My sister doesn't have to worry too much, my mother will figure it out. ”
The sister and brother talked for a while, and Cao Jiashi sent someone to see if Nersu came back.
"It was your brother-in-law who asked me to find you, and there were people in the palace again. But he told me to keep you, and he had something to say to you. Cao Jia said.
Cao Hao also wanted to say something to Nersu, so he was not in a hurry to go home, and while talking to Cao Jia's family, he waited for Nersu to come back.
After waiting for more than an hour, I saw that Nersu was late.
I heard that Cao Hao had arrived early, and he didn't change his clothes, so he came to confess.
In front of his younger brother, Cao Jiashi didn't say anything, but he also slashed a few times with an eye knife. Nersu didn't care, the corners of his eyes were full of joy, and he walked lightly.
Seeing this, Cao Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother-in-law, is there a happy event?" ”
Nersu said "haha" twice and said: "It's a great joy to call Brother Hao, and I didn't dare to think of it." ”
Hearing this, Cao Jiashi and Cao Hao both looked at Nersu and waited for the follow-up. But he wanted to sell Guanzi, and said with a smile: "Fujin and Brother Hao guess, what kind of happy event?" ”
Cao Jiashi thought for a while and said, "Could it be that the emperor asked the master to go to the Zongren Mansion?" ”
With the identity of Nersu, even if he can't be appointed as the sect's order, he is still a sect, and he is a very noble and decent errand in the clan.
Cao Hao thought about the recent movements of the Yuzi court, and there was no special news, but he heard that the emperor was going to rectify the garrison of the Eight Banners in the capital, and he would select the princes from the clan and investigate the military affairs of the Eight Banners on the left and right wings.
This candidate will not fall to Nersu.
Even if the emperor believed that Nersu and the fourteenth elder brother did not collude, but for the prince who had been leading troops in the northwest for several years, there was really no reason for him to make meritorious contributions in martial affairs. In that case, the prestige is too great, and it is by no means what an emperor is happy to see.
"Now there is still a vacancy in the prince of the six departments, is my brother-in-law going to enter the six departments?" Cao Hao said.
After Nersu arrived in Beijing, he took a month's vacation, and seeing that the vacation was about to be full, it was normal to take errands.
Kangxi is alive, there are too many sons, and most of the six ministries are controlled by the prince.
Of Yongzheng's sons, only the third prince was a little older and began to work on errands, and the others were either in infancy or studying in the study. In this way, the kings of the clan have more opportunities.
Nersu shook his head with a smile and said, "Brother Hao guessed wrong...... Speaking of this, he turned to Cao Jia's family and said: "Fujin guessed half right, the emperor has already issued an order to point me to Zuo Zongzheng...... What is gratifying is not this, but that I have survived in the northwest for six years, and I have finally been rewarded, and the emperor has promoted me to Prince Heshuo! ”
"Huh?" When Cao Jiashi heard this, he was already surprised.
Cao Hao hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "It's really a great joy, congratulations to my brother-in-law for his promotion!" ”
From the king of the county and the prince, it seems that they have only been promoted by one level, but from the people of Yulu, the difference is doubled. Especially the prince of Narsu, who is still hereditary, and the promotion of the knighthood is a major event for future generations.
Cao Jia's eyes were already filled with tears, and he was blessed like wax, and said in a choked voice: "Congratulations to you for achieving your wish!" ”
Nersu picked up his wife, nodded, and said: "In the six years in the northwest, although I have not made meritorious contributions, I have finally fulfilled my duties and have not disgraced my ancestors. ”
He was raised in the palace when he was a child, inherited the title when he was a teenager, and in his early years he always wanted to emulate his ancestors and make contributions on horses.
In the six years in the northwest, he was not only in the garrison, but also once in Tibetan Province.
There is no need for the enemy, just because of the difficult roads and altitude sickness, the soldiers and horses are reduced by 30%. He also fell ill and nearly died. Because he was afraid that his wife would worry, he concealed this paragraph, but between life and death, he lost his fame.
When he returned to Beijing this time, he didn't expect to get any reward. As the prince in charge of military affairs, it is already a blessing not to be suspicious of the new emperor.
Unexpectedly, being summoned to the palace today is a matter of being promoted to the knighthood for himself.
Although Cao Jiashi didn't know that her husband had experienced this life and death catastrophe, she finally shed tears when she thought about the separation between husband and wife in the past six years.
Seeing his wife like this, Nersu also felt that his heart was unstoppable, his eyes were red, he "coughed", covered up his gaffe, and said: "This is a happy event, what are you crying about?" ”
He said strange words in his mouth, but his hands were soft, and he personally wiped his wife's tears.
Seeing that their husband and wife were affectionate, Cao Hao couldn't stay a little beside him, and said: "I was happy to catch up with my brother-in-law, and I should have accompanied my brother-in-law to get drunk." It's just that it's not good to compete with my sister, so I'll leave it to my sister and brother-in-law to talk about themselves. ”
In a word, Cao Jiashi blushed and said, "Okay, you are a younger brother, you don't want to think about a big gift, but you know how to make fun of people!" ”
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, I still have to have a drink with my brother!" Narsu hurriedly said.
Cao Hao waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not too late for Ming'er to eat, this is a great joy, and I will go back earlier to tell my mother that I am happy." ”
Seeing that he insisted on leaving, Nersu said, "Since this is the case, then I will go with your sister to ask my mother-in-law for peace." ”
Cao Hao said: "If the relationship is good, my mother will be happy." ”
Sending Cao Hao out, Nersu remembered something and said: "By the way, not only I have happy events, the fourteenth master wants to be the king of the county, and the seventeenth master will open the mansion and seal the king of the county." Even on the Seventh Uncle's side, there are also good things, and the emperor ordered him to take charge of the four banners on the left. ”
Although it is none of his business, they are all in-laws and friends, and Cao Hao is also very happy in his heart.
To be realistic, these people are decent, and the shadow of the Cao family being implicated by the Li family has faded a lot. Those who want to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Cao family's idea must think about the Cao family's noble relatives.
When Cao Hao went home and told the news that everyone was promoted to the rank of knight, Li and Chu Yu were also overjoyed.
"The emperor is benevolent, your brother-in-law is very good, and the seventeenth master is also very good." Li said with a smile: "The Seventh Prince is even more capable!" ”
She is really happy for everyone, and for the fourteenth elder brother, who has never been close to her, because of the Li family, she also hopes that he will get better.
If the emperor even forgives his siblings who seized the throne with him, then there is only a limit to the anger of the ministers and servants below.
Chu Yu is concerned about his father's flag service, which is certainly a great dignity, but also a laborious errand, I don't know if his father's body can stand it.
Cao Hao was thinking about another thing.
Recently, there have been many changes in the capital and local officials, among which the officials of Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Gansu provinces under Nian Qianyao have changed the most.
The chief officials of these three provinces are dismissed and transferred, and most of the promotions are the prefects and Taoist platforms in the province, which is the famous "annual election......
