"I know I was wrong." Yinzhen felt that every word struck a vital point in his heart, and the meaning behind his words did not allow him to argue. Nian Gengyao was silent for a moment. At first, he smiled helplessly in his heart, but then he was A bit of fear was replaced by fear, and he immediately bowed to him and apologized, solemnly saying, "I know that I have been arrogant and flamboyant in the past, but now is the critical point of the current situation. I will never dare to act arbitrarily and betray my master." Su Xi taught me. If the prince said that Gengyao had external thoughts, Gengyao would never dare to¡ª¡ª"
Yinzhen left him here to talk, which was not his original intention. Now that he heard what he said, he took the opportunity to open this article, motioned him to sit down, and asked him straight to the point, "What are the next few letters from you?" I have read all the letters you sent to Beijing. It concerns Cai Jue. Since I haven¡¯t met him, I don¡¯t know much about him. I will ask you one by one when I have time. You came to Rehe this time to meet His Majesty on your own initiative. ? When I saw the emperor, what was played? Did the emperor have anything to say to you? "
Nian Gengyao saw him squealing at himself with each sentence. He originally thought that because of Meng Guangzu's previous incident, he would not be able to get through this easily. However, unexpectedly, he was even more uncertain due to those words that he said sincerely and for his own sake. His temperament, after hearing him ask this question, he calmed down a little. Now that he was talking about serious things, Nian Gengyao put his hands on his knees, sat down and said, "Celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Emperor's ascension to the throne, for When I came to the capital to meet with your Majesty to report on my duties, I had given the report several times, but His Majesty always refused because the two-pronged war was on the road. This time, it coincided with the great victory of Larry, so I was able to leave the army. I was called here on an errand. The prince already knew about the emperor¡¯s promotion of me to the position of governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, but there were some other words in the memorial. I felt that the emperor had a profound intention. I originally said that if I could not see the prince this time, I would not be able to come here. I need to send my family members to send a letter to the prince to express my feelings."
"How do you say that?" Yinzhen pursed his lips inadvertently, then looked at Nian Gengyao expressionlessly.
"The minister was alone in front of the emperor for two or three hours. The emperor only asked about the situation of the Northwest War and the general's orders in front of the army. Although the emperor had some words of encouragement during the period, he only allowed me to discuss the merits of my subordinates. He didn't say anything else, and he didn't say a word of praise. At the end, the emperor casually said that I followed the right master" Nian Gengyao paused, looked at Yinzhen, and suddenly handed over his hand. He said solemnly, "I dare to speculate on the holy will. The emperor seems to be interested in his master inheriting the throne."
Yinzhen's heart suddenly moved. He glanced at Nian Gengyao and then asked in a deep voice, "Okay, why did it come to this?" This question reminded Nian Gengyao of the day before yesterday. Seeing the situation, he truly felt a sincere awe and admiration for Kangxi. Thinking of the comfort in those words, what a kind encounter between the emperor and his ministers, he moved his lips at the moment, and the words he brought out were also Extremely solemn, "I have little talent and virtue, and there is no lack of openness in doing things. However, my heart and actions are all in the Emperor's Holy Cave, but I have been favored by the Holy Will again and again. The Emperor said that I have made compromises in the past, except for Sichuan Province." The knowledge of local general affairs also showed the desire to achieve great achievements. This time, the purpose of ordering the ministers to lead the troops to join the Yanxin Second Road to suppress the attack was to see the talents of the ministers. The emperor also discussed the character and origin of the governors of each province. Experiences, etc., and I have repeatedly told my ministers to take good care of the Fourth Master¡ª¡ª" As he spoke, Nian Gengyao had already looked at Yinzhen and said sincerely, "The emperor's original words, 'You must have the proper etiquette and kindness, be loyal, obedient, benevolent and respectful. "Being cautious and cultivating yourself is the way to be a minister." At first, I thought it was the emperor warning me not to be arrogant based on my merits, so I replied that I knew I was shallow. The fourth master was my master, and he often sent letters to warn me, but the emperor did not I was filled with emotion for a moment, and then I said this. After I left the palace, I thought about it again and again, and realized that the emperor did not just say it casually."
Nian Gengyao's theory is not without purpose. He and Yinzhen know the meaning most clearly. Just as Nian Gengyao said, he was the best in the holy family of Xiangri. During the close exchanges, Kangxi even regarded Nian Gengyao as a nephew. This kind of favor was enviable to others, no matter what he had done when he was in Chengdu before. Following rumors of the imperial court's handling of the mutual impeachment of the governors of the two rivers, he had conflicts with the former governor Yin Tai, and later had private exchanges with Meng Guangzu. At most, the punishment was just dismissal and retention, and there was no more censure. Nian Gengyao himself also understood that in the past, because of his arrogant temper, he would not easily regard himself as a slave before the emperor. Although Kangxi knew about this, he let him go. Even Yinzhen sometimes said something wrong with him. Kangxi's words He was doting on him and wanted to die for him. However, this time when his Majesty saw him, Kangxi did not praise his benefits as usual, but instead gave him a clear warning. The profound meaning of this is self-evident.
After Yinzhen thought about it, he understood the whole story. He was secretly happy to see that Nian Gengyao was particularly sincere, and he couldn't help but admire him, "If anyone else told me this, I would never believe it. You have good sense and will never believe it." Even if you say something lightly, I can trust you." After saying this, Yinzhen's face became warmer and warmer, but his deeply twisted eyebrows showed deep thought. Yinzhen stopped talking for a moment, looked at Nian Gengyao and asked He said, "Tell me, has the current situation really reached the point of 'today' and 'someday'?" After hearing this, Nian Gengyao immediately raised his hands and said, "Isn't it that I don't know?"No one dares or forgets the kindness of the palace to a good and evil person. "At this point, the two of them had just wiped away the remaining discord in the house just now. Nian Gengyao was sitting on the edge of the Kang, and he relaxed a little. Then he bowed to Yinzhen and said, " I have some thoughts about this situation now, so I would like to discuss it with Fourth Master. "
Seeing Yinzhen nodding in response, Nian Gengyao straightened his thoughts and said, "Although the emperor's dragon body appears to be strong, he is still an old man after all. What will happen is always unpredictable The holy concerns are far-reaching. , judging from this section, it is not certain that the emperor has made preparations for the fourth master. However, having said that, the fourteenth master is now quite powerful, and he has a good relationship with the eighth master and the ninth master, and there are many foreign governors. If there are people who are optimistic about the Fourteenth Master, the Fourth Master should pay more attention to them. With my ministers away, the situation in Beijing is not clear. However, since the Emperor has made it clear that the Fourteenth Master will return to Beijing at the end of the year, the Fourth Master can take another look at that time."
"Well, let's see about this later." Yinzhen nodded silently. After thinking for a while, he remembered something again and couldn't help but ask, "You sent a letter before and said that since they can come to the army to find you openly, then what? Their activities are also indispensable in the governor's yamen elsewhere. Although people's hearts may not really be towards them, you still have to pay attention to me."
"Hey, Gengyao can save it."
Yinzhen breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered the hot tea on the table, and brought it to his lips, but found that it was already freezing cold, so he had to put the tea cup on the table with his hand, " Let¡¯s talk about that Cai Qing. If you go to see him in person, what will he say?¡±
"I obviously went to speak to him because of the fourth master, but he didn't want to offend this person. He just kept doing Tai Chi with me, saying that it was inappropriate and had to wait for another day. Even though he didn't say it clearly, I could tell. , now because of the promotion of the Ministry of Rites, he is definitely not willing to easily cause people to misunderstand his future."
"It's a rare thing. He can't invite anyone here and there, but he's willing to tell you this." Yinzhen has been worried about the past. When he heard this, he knew that this was a person who couldn't start from the beginning and had a real sense of integrity. He said with a 'hum' in his nose, "Didn't I tell you anything about 'Prince Yiyude Chunhua, you can't make friends with foreign ministers'?"
"This -" Nian Gengyao choked him up at first. He remembered that Yinzhen had sent him a letter before and told him that when he went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to entrust an errand, he was rejected by a small official, and then he couldn't help laughing. , "How can the fourth master care about Ertai if he is a large number? In the same year, I also heard that he was known as a straightforward person. But I think Cai Jue is definitely not such a straightforward person. In this flexible way, he can be a good person." He is the master of Ertai. Cai Ruopu, a smart and thoughtful person, will definitely come to the palace to worship the true Buddha if he hears any rumors."
