Zhuer, this was the first time Kangxi called Yuzhu this way.

The connotation is so rich that it simply cannot be described in words.

Kangxi was getting older and couldn't sleep anyway, so he had nothing to do, so he took Yuzhu and talked about home affairs together.

"Old Eighteen, he is already fourteen years old." Kangxi said this suddenly.

When Yuzhu heard this, he understood that the old emperor wanted his most beloved son to have a grand wedding.

According to the rules of the royal family, the age at which a prince gets married, except for the special case of the fourth child, is generally over fourteen years old.

The fourth child, when he was thirteen years old, married the eleven-year-old Ulanara, who was actually only ten years old, and became his direct descendant when he was fourteen years old.

According to the marriage system of the imperial court, if the marriage is reversed, it means that the ten-year-old Sifujin is very precocious and has already given birth to Chukui.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, it was rapidly Chineseized.

Han Chinese women usually get married after their hairpin (ji).

The Hairpin Ceremony happens shortly after a woman’s menarche.

Yuzhu knew better than anyone that Sifujin got married too early and harmed his health. Therefore, the sons she gave birth to were born with deficiencies and were not raised to adulthood.

"Old man, I have a little selfishness. I have always been thinking about my sister being able to marry into the Baylor Mansion in a glorious way." Yuzhu did not dare to say it clearly. He wanted to postpone the wedding, but he cleverly said it through vanity.

thing.

Lao Ba was the son of a Han female concubine. He was canonized as Beizi and was already extremely favored.

You know, Old Thirteen, Old Fifteen, Old Sixteen, and Old Seventeen are all still empty-headed brothers without a title.

No matter how much Kangxi liked him, Lao Shiba would have to make a justifiable contribution before he could be promoted to Baylor.

Yuzhu used this to talk about things because he actually wanted to protect his own sister.

If Yu Yan gets married too early, not only will her body not be mature yet, but she will also be very likely to have one child and die in infancy.

Lao Shiba and Yu Yan have already been married, and there can be no further changes.

On the premise that the issue of principle was not questioned, Kangxi was led astray by Yuzhu. He really thought that Yuzhu's vanity was overwhelming.

Well, if his favorite son was promoted to Baylor through meritorious service, Kangxi's face would naturally be very bright!

However, if Lao Shiba wants to make meritorious deeds, he must either resort to martial arts or martial arts.

At present, there is no major war, so where can we gain military merit?

Kangxi thought for a while and said: "It's okay for Lao Shiba to study. It's not a problem to be bored in the study all day long. Why don't you let Lao Shiba go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to help you with your errands?"

Yuzhu wanted to laugh, but the old emperor was too protective of his shortcomings.

Kangxi openly said that he would let Lao Shiba help Yuzhu do errands. In fact, the old emperor wanted Yu Zhu to make a great contribution, and then give the credit to Lao Shiba in vain.

At that time, the boss was the deputy commander and followed Kangxi's brother Fuquan to attack Galdan.

In fact, the considerations were roughly the same. Kangxi clearly wanted his elder brother Fuquan and gave up military honors to his eldest brother.

As a result, the boss, that careless guy, was eager for quick success and quick gain, so he actually bit Fuquan back. From then on, he gained a sworn enemy.

Lao Shiba is Yuzhu's brother-in-law. If his elbows are not turned inward, are they turned outwards?

However, Yuzhu did not agree immediately, but took the initiative to remind the old emperor.

"Old man, you also know Prince Yong's temper." Yuzhu deliberately made trouble with the fourth child.

As we all know, the fourth child likes to eat alone. As long as it is a matter in his charge, he will fight whoever dares to interfere.

"Oh, oh, I almost forgot about this." Kangxi suddenly woke up.

A mere household department actually let two of his own sons in. Isn't this a natural quarrel?

Kangxi thought about it carefully, and among Yuzhu's various duties, it seemed that Cao Yin was responsible for the large shipbuilding business, which had the best hope of making a lot of money.

"How about asking Lao Shiba to go to Dagokou?" Kangxi thought about it and finally came up with the idea, which coincided with Yuzhu's idea.

Most of the so-called merits of civil administration are unrealistic for the prince Lao Shiba.

You can't give Lao Shiba a county and let him govern it, right?

However, if Lao Shiba is allowed to take charge of shipbuilding in Dagukou and overseas trade, it will be easy to make a lot of money.

In his later years, Kangxi was particularly vain, otherwise he would not have wanted to free the world of money and food.

When the imperial court was short of money, if the overseas trade that Lao Shiba was in charge of brought in millions of silver, it would partially fill the hole of lack of money.

This contribution is great enough to be canonized as Baylor.

Kangxi was good at keeping in good health and hardly ate at night.

Yuzhu is different. He is young and gets hungry quickly.

While the monarch and his ministers were chatting here and there, "Gurgugugu..." Yuzhu's stomach began to growl uncontrollably.

Kangxi couldn't help laughing, so he called Wei Zhu and asked him to go to the dining room to see if there was anything he could eat to satisfy his stomach.

However, no matter how stupid Yuzhu was, he would not dare to let the old emperor watch him eat midnight snacks.

Kangxi also understood Yuzhu's difficulties, so he pretended to bring a bowl of red dates and white fungus soup, took a spoon, and played with it in the bowl, but refused to take his mouth.

The small table in front of Yuzhu was filled with various steaming foods.

Hehe, the emperor is afraid of plots and needs eunuchs to test poisons. What is Yuzhu afraid of?

After Yuzhu was finished with the supper, Kangxi held a tea cup in his hand and asked him with a smile: "The third brother recommended to me that he is the governor of Zhili. What do you think of this?"

Shuida means master in Manchu.

Yuzhu's days with Kangxi were not short.

This was the first time that Kangxi asked Yuzhu for his opinion on personnel arrangements.

Let He Shou serve as the governor of Zhili?

Hehe, the third child wants to seize the power of the Green Camp soldiers in Zhili!

He Shou, the current governor of Liangjiang, surnamed Shumulu, was under the banner of Zhenghuang in Manchuria. He was once Lao San's Wai Zhida, that is, a riding and archery master.

The Governor of Liangjiang was in charge of the three richest provinces in Jiangnan and was known as the First Governor of Jiangnan.

In the past, Yuzhu had always been a little strange. Why was the third child, who was capable of both literary and martial arts, given up by Kangxi?

Now, Yuzhu is in the middle of the situation and suddenly realizes it.

Alas, the third child is not as good at pretending as the fourth child after all, and he is impatient to seize the military power of Zhili.

Yuzhu really didn't believe it. Kangxi couldn't understand the trick?

However, since Kangxi asked this question, Yuzhu, who was also the minister of the South Study Room, had to answer.

"Old man, I have no contact with He Shou, so I dare not make any unreasonable remarks." Yuzhu told Kangxi in disguise that those who control the military power in the suburbs of Beijing must be pure ministers loyal to the emperor.

"There are no outsiders here, so you can just say it." Kangxi seemed to want to hear Yuzhu's opinion, and he pressed hard.

Yuzhu also knew that what Kangxi was telling the truth now.

However, in everything, I am afraid of thinking about it afterwards.

Therefore, Yuzhu was bitten to death. He had been away from home for a long time and was not familiar with the situation in Beijing, so he could not speak nonsense.

In Kangxi's eyes, his mother's Tong family had their own characteristics.

Among the two uncles from the previous generation, Tong Guowei was an old cunning man and Tong Guogang was a reckless fool.

Among his peers, Orundai was an arrogant and lawless man.

Fahai is more cautious than courageous.

As for Longkodo, he was greedy and extremely arrogant.

Among the grandchildren of the Tong family, Yuzhu is the most promising.

Yuzhu, this boy, never disobeyed in major matters and always followed Kangxi's wishes.

However, sometimes, Yuzhu is very stubborn, and the kind of stubbornness that is not afraid of death.

Kangxi was already old and no longer had the aggressive and decisive temperament he had when he was young.

To put it bluntly, how many years does he have left to live? How much time will he have to cultivate another trustworthy pure minister like Yuzhu?

Above the temple, it is always about strength!

Yuzhu needed Kangxi's trust in order to gain greater military power.

As for Kangxi, the most distressing thing now is that, except for Yuzhu and Longkodo, he would not trust anyone else with the military power in the capital.

Yuzhu's qualifications are very low, his prestige is seriously lacking, and he poses no threat to the imperial power.

Kangxi also deliberately suppressed Yuzhu's official position and real power. When he rewarded his merits, he was mostly promoted to a higher rank or given honors such as Zhulun.

Yuzhu resisted and refused to express his position. Kangxi was so choked that he rolled his eyes and was helpless.

"You are the little bastard sent by God to make me angry." Kangxi scolded Yuzhu angrily.

However, Yuzhu didn't take it seriously and said with a playful smile: "Old man, I'm very greedy for your new Emei bird tongue. How many kilograms can I give you?"
