Saying goodbye to Yinzhen, Yinzhen hurriedly hurried all the way, and finally made it back to where he was in Tangquan before the full moon rose to the sky. He was born with a wealthy body, and he had not been through this battle for many years. He galloped down the road, and his bones were not shaken. At this moment, he just fell on the warm couch and panted to rest. Yao Zixiao hurriedly He hurriedly called the little eunuch to bring some fruit and refreshments, and then gently held them on his legs. After a while, he saw that Yin Zhen was different from the past. He only held a plum and was silent, leaning on the big pillow without saying a word. Yao Zixiao looked bored, so he waved his hand and sent the people down, and then he pressed close to join in the fun, "Master is tired today? I see, Master is really strategizing today"
After hearing this, Yinzhen felt very comfortable and just glanced at him, "Talk to your master about it." Yao Zixiao smiled apologetically and flattered in a low voice, "Among all the kings and elder brothers, master is the only one." Their backbone is gone. The Eighth Master is a Buddha and must be supported by the master; the Fourteenth Master I can¡¯t say for sure, but if the Fourteenth Master really gets the big position in the future, the master will definitely be the regent of our Qing Dynasty. ."
"Thankfully you have stayed with me for all these years, Xingdian doesn't understand my thoughts." Yinzhen rolled his eyes at him again when he heard this, and took a long breath, "I have told you so many times, I may not accept it." With such a big responsibility, I have to worry about state affairs for him every day, so how can I get any rest? I have to think according to my original thoughts, but it is enough for me to be a prince with an iron hat, and he can be leisurely and at ease. ." Yao Zixiao knew that what he said was pretentious, but he still smiled in agreement, "The emperor is afraid that he will have to wait until the autumn festival is over before he can return to the capital. Let's not talk about political affairs. At this time, the ginseng and medicinal materials in the Northeast, and the farms in Beijing , pawnshops, and those industries in the south, don¡¯t the masters have to take care of them all in Rehe? You can¡¯t take a break if you want"
Yao Zixiao's guess was correct. In late June, the emperor arrived at Rehe. Within a few days, he ordered to go to the fortress to encircle him. The emperor was old now. Although he could no longer shoot at bears and tigers with his bow, he immediately raised his whip. , The interest in hunting and reveling has not diminished at all. A group of elder brothers came with them, and naturally they followed the emperor's father to enjoy themselves. However, Yinzhen had never been interested in hunting. It happened that Kangxi mentioned that he wanted to go to his lion garden one day, so Yinzhen used the excuse of going back to the garden to prepare and went back to hide for a few days to relax.
On the second day after returning to the Lion Garden, Yinzhen was enjoying the scenery and cooling off in the Miao Gao Hall. In mid-July, when the weather is hot, this place is a cool resort. Miao Gao Hall is located at the highest point of the mountain top, nestled among the clouds, with Lion Peak on the opposite side in the distance. It was originally built after the Miao Gao Tower in Jinshan, Zhenjiang, and was built in Rehe, but it has a unique charm. I saw springs and rocks dancing for fun, and I saw Fu Nai leading two people up the stairs from a distance. The man in front was slightly smaller, only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a gentle and handsome appearance, and the man behind him was older. He is older, dressed like a scholar in a poplin summer shirt, but he is full of energy. When the two of them arrived in front of Yinzhen, the young man had already rolled down his sleeves to Yinzhen and made a full salute, "Nian Xi greets the prince."
The older man stretched out his arms and was about to lift up his robe, but was stopped by Yinzhen. During the moment of astonishment, Yinzhen nodded slightly and said to Fu Nai, who was standing by the side, "You take Nian Xi to rest. Mr. Songshan and I can go wherever we go, so there is no need to follow." "Hey." In response to Fu Nai's words, Yinzhen raised his hand to Cai Jue and walked forward. The two of them followed the winding path in the mountain and headed towards Chenghuaitang. As Yinzhen walked, he asked, "If Ruopu came today, there might be something wrong with him, so he ordered you to go to Sichuan. Why don't you avoid suspicion when you come to see me now?" Cai Jue followed behind. Hearing this, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He chuckled and took two steps closer and said, "This Thanks to Fourth Master for the suggestion, I always think poorly. However, although I have some private thoughts, in front of Fourth Master, But I don¡¯t dare to think about it at all. Although I am not under the Fourth Master¡¯s command, my respect for the Fourth Master is the same as that of a bright worker.¡±
Cai Jue came here today with the intention of planning for his family's future. Especially with a background in the two rankings, he also had a passion for fame and fortune, so his words of surrender were unabashed. It is true that as Cai Jue said to Nian Gengyao that day, he was promoted to Minister of Rites at the beginning of the year, and now he is still serving as the envoy of the Hanlin Academy. Now that he has gained the current stability, people will naturally be moved. Cai Jue increasingly felt that if he continued to wait and see, he would miss the opportunity. In the next year, Nian sent several letters to him, only showing the intention of asking him to join Yongdi. Although Cai Jue was still a little hesitant, seeing that Nian was such a holy family, he couldn't help but think twice. When he saw the decree that he should be appointed governor of Sichuan, he was overjoyed and frightened, and felt that he could not delay it any longer. He was about to come to Yong's residence to see him, but he was worried about coming directly to pay homage, and was afraid of being hasty, so he decided to The messenger carefully inquired about King Yong's days in the garden, and through his old friendship with Nian Gengyao, found his son Nian Xi to introduce him to him.
Looking at Cai Juexing¡¯s deliberate address, YanHe had made himself a member of his sect during the speech. How could Yinzhen not know what his plan was? He just smiled and said, "What Ruopu said is already a heretic." "Fourth Master" "I also know what you are doing today. I will be honest with you about my purpose of coming." Yinzhen waved his hand slightly, frowned, looked at Cai Jue and said solemnly, "Now that Sichuan's Fujun and feudal lords have gone to Tibet to take charge of military affairs, Liang Gong There, of course, you and him are needed to help. The imperial court's decision to fix the border is a big plan. The military affairs and people's livelihood in Sichuan and Shaanxi provinces are of great importance, which affects the entire northwest. There have always been many rifts between the governors. I hope that you two can work together to achieve mutual respect. yes."
At this moment, Cai Jue got rid of some of his uneasiness, thought about it briefly, and hurriedly answered with his hands raised, "I will definitely live up to Fourth Master's expectations." As they spoke, the two of them had arrived in front of the study hall. The eaves and corners of the five couplets are all hidden in the forest. In front of the hall, two green pines and cypresses cross each other side by side, filling the courtyard with thick shade, making it extremely quiet. Yinzhen walked slowly through the front yard and pointed at some exquisite scenery with Cai Jue. Cai Jue took the opportunity to praise a few words, but still couldn't help but think about the past. When the time came, he said again, "If there is trouble in Sichuan Province, If it is normal for me to come to invite the Fourth Master, I can just talk to Liang Gong and Dai Duo about it."
Yinzhen first sat in the courtyard of the back hall, and then sat down with him to rest. After hearing this, he just smiled silently: "It is true that Dai Duo was recommended by Nian Gengyao and the emperor. He is very capable in doing things." No, if something goes wrong, you don't have to look at me to protect him, just take it as it is." Immediately, there were eunuchs in the courtyard serving the tea, and the fragrance of tea lingered under the thick shade, and you smelled it again The stream was gurgling and the birds were chirping. Cai Jue raised his eyes and saw the words "Forgetful Words Pavilion" engraved on the plaque in the back hall. "I have the true meaning, but I have forgotten what to say when I want to argue" suddenly came to mind. He happened to be thinking of words of compliment, so he got this good sentence and took the opportunity to praise Yinzhen again.
After that day, Cai Jue waited in Rehe for a few days. After Kangxi returned from his encirclement tour, Fang Bi resigned and went to Sichuan to take up his post. After he left, it was already late autumn when he returned to Chengdu to see Nian Gengyao. Well, if the current situation is like this, the two of them naturally cannot help but have a detailed discussion about the central and northwest areas of the capital. What they say is nothing more than one sentence - Prince Yong is the only one where the Sacred Heart is. At the same time, Yinzhi, Yinzhen and others were also busy making preparations for the Holy Emperor's return to Luang at the end of September. Everyone's gardens on the outskirts of Beijing were also cleaned and cleaned. Unexpectedly, the Holy Emperor returned to the capital less than ten days later. , Kangxi fell ill, and the emperor's illness was extremely dangerous. Also at such an age, people inside and outside the capital could not help but feel panic
