My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 986 A New Step

The fourth elder brother thought for a while, and said: "You don't need to go back. There is a commotion at this time, and people will see it as a joke. The Huangzhuang in other places also needs manpower. Just send people there, or send them directly to the Zhuangzi in Shengjing..."

The fifth elder brother looked at the fourth elder brother, and hadn't thought of handling it like this before.

"Then how to use it? I don't want them to be in charge..." Fifth Prince said.

The fourth elder brother said: "Just treat it as an ordinary tenant, how dare you be disobedient..."

Speaking of this, he said: "You don't need to show your face, just ask the people around you to warn you. If they work honestly, they will be punished in three to five years and behave peacefully, and they will be given other errands." , if it doesn’t stop, then don’t even think about going back to Beijing!”

The fifth elder brother nodded and said: "Okay! It's easy for them to deal with it like this. Otherwise, such a double-minded slave should be sent to the Punishment Department."

He asked about a good idea and left briskly.

Fourth elder brother here, when it's time to go to Yamen, he is a little more worried.

Before leaving the city, he went back to the Sibeile Mansion and told the master of ceremonies: "Revisit the coated population in the mansion, mainly to check the relatives and see if there is any inappropriate..."

The master of ceremonies listened to the alarm.

After the fourth elder brother explained, he left the city.

Immediately, he also thought about the manpower of the three schools in the palace in his early years.

The old man that Ernie left to him was all retired at the beginning of last year.

Earlier, there was a nanny whom he trusted and arranged to be beside Honghui.

Brother Si's sweat suddenly came down...

When they arrived at the Southern Third Institute, Si Fujin seemed hesitant to speak.

Brother Si looked at her and said, "What's wrong..."

He thought about the movement of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the past two days, and said, "Is there someone you know from the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the mother-in-law's side?"

Si Fujin shook his head, and said: "It's not me, but the empress sent someone here at noon today, saying she was asking about the affairs of my uncle's family, so that I can take care of him..."

Concubine De did not follow to the garden this time, she was still in the palace.

Knowing that asking people to go to the yamen of the household department to attract attention, he sent the palace people to spread the word in the name of visiting Sifu Jin.

The fourth elder brother felt a little stuck in his heart, it must be someone from Wu Ya's family who passed the sign into the palace and chewed his tongue.

He felt that it was a good thing to make up for the money, which could be regarded as smoothing out the previous mistakes.

Bai Qi also accepted his proposal, went back to collect money, and also handed over some money to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

But Bai Qi is not the only one in Wu Ya's family, there are other houses as well.

This is someone who is not happy, and complained to Concubine De.

The fourth elder brother said: "In the future, the mother will send someone, and you will push it all on the master, just say that you don't know..."

Si Fujin nodded, in front of her mother-in-law, she always regarded her husband as her god.

The fourth elder brother looked at his wife, hesitated for a moment, and still told about the chaos in the backyard of Wubeile Mansion.

Sifujin was dumbfounded when he heard that, and said, "What is Liu Gege trying to do? How dare she?"

The fourth elder brother thought for a while, and said: "It's better to have hidden bad thoughts long ago, so that you will be bewitched by the servants. What you are thinking about now is to fight for favor. If it goes well, I don't know what will happen in the future..."

Thinking of Wu Fujin, Si Fujin couldn't help feeling sympathetic, and said, "Fifth sibling is really not easy!"

The fourth elder brother shook his head and said: "If she had grasped the inner house early, she wouldn't be deaf and blind, it's just that she doesn't care..."

Si Fujin looked at the fourth elder brother and was speechless. Whenever there is a problem in the brother's family, it is the problem of the brother's wife, as if there is nothing wrong with the brother.

The fourth elder brother looked at Si Fujin and said: "Look what you are doing? Are you tanned?"

With that said, he got up and went to the mirror and took a few glances.

Seeing that it was getting hot day by day, the fourth elder brother coughed lightly, and said: "The face cream that the ninth sibling gave you before, don't waste it, it's a pity..."

Today I saw the fifth elder brother, white and fat; I met the eighth elder brother, spotless.

The fourth elder brother felt that he should not be too rough, otherwise he would look old when he looked back.

Sifujin smiled, and said: "The cream is for winter, and the oil is for Ergege and Honghui to wipe their hands in spring. I'm about to send someone to the shop of the nine younger brothers and sisters to buy it for them again." Some hand cream, then bring back two bottles for Grandpa..."

The fourth elder brother nodded and said: "Take it, I know they have opened a rouge shop, so I always want to support it."

Si Fujin said: "Yes, the nine brothers and sisters have taken care of our business. The clothing materials for changing seasons at the end of last year and March this year were all bought from my cloth shop."

According to the current rules, the servants of this family, whether they are coats or household members, in addition to monthly money, they also need to pay for clothes for four seasons every year.

This is not a ready-to-wear, but a reward for the material of the clothes according to different levels...

In the North Fifth Institute, Shu Shu and Brother Nine were walking around in the yard.

When I saw Princess Kejing today, I felt relieved.

The reception banquet prepared by the palace for Princess Kejing is scheduled for three days later, so the next few days will be free.

The two planned to go to Baiwang Mountain.

Because Princess Kejing mentioned smallpox, not only Brother Jiu cared, Shu Shu also cared.

This "cowpox" matter, find a thread and stretch it out.

Because she promised to take Jiu Gege to her own Zhuangzi, she went to the North Garden to find Jiu Gege.

Ninth elder brother called tenth elder brother and asked, "The past two days have been messy, everyone is running to elder brother's place, tomorrow we will go to Baiwang Mountain, we will go early and return late, will you go?"

Elder Brother Ten was bored, so he immediately agreed, and went back to tell Fujin that he had gone.

Ninth brother thought about it, and sent He Yuzhu to the school grounds to tell the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers.

Otherwise, Elder Fourteen would be chattering again.

After a while, He Yuzhu came back, followed by the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother.

The faces of the two of them were not very good-looking. When Brother Jiu saw it, he snorted and said, "It's not just this time, don't keep thinking about having fun, just go next time..."

Brother Fourteen shook his head and said, "It's not for this!"

Elder Brother Thirteen smiled wryly and said, "It's about the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Zhang's family is looking for me..."

Brother Nine was surprised: "You are a little brother who is still studying, what do you want?"

Elder Fourteen snorted coldly: "Guilty! I was too greedy before, but now that I have made up the debt, I am afraid of being liquidated. Come here and hug Thirteenth Brother's thigh..."

Speaking of this, he said angrily: "Why are you so embarrassed? The concubine didn't even pay attention to them, and they were still stuffing garlic when they were outside..."

I got out of the basket, thinking about burning incense.

"It's so beautiful that their noses are soaked, so they should clean them up!" Elder Fourteen said indignantly.

It is a common practice in the palace that the natal family of the head of state often sends subsidies to the palace, after all, the palace has a lot of expenses.

And because of the birth of a concubine, the natal family outside did benefit, not to mention chickens and dogs ascending to heaven.

Only Zhang's family was an exception. Concubine Min refused to accept her in the early years, so Zhang's family stopped this filial piety.

Ninth elder brother glanced at fourteenth elder brother, and said: "Don't be angry at this time, why should you stay at Zhang's house, Thirteen just listen to the concubine's order..."

The thirteenth elder brother lowered his eyes and said: "Emiang told me a long time ago, let me stay away from them..."

Elder Fourteen nodded and said: "That's right, why didn't Brother Thirteen see them send filial piety when he was young? When he went to the study, he started to give it away, and it was also light. Anyway, their family doesn't have much human touch."

Brother Jiu said: "Then what's the trouble, just ignore it in the future."

Elder Fourteen nodded in agreement, and said, "That's right, that's right, don't be too flattering, or you'll really think you're half a country's uncle!"

Brother Thirteen is not a person who likes to be entangled, so he nodded and said, "I won't talk to them from now on."

Brother Fourteen raised his eyebrows and said: "That's right, learn more from Brother Nine, Brother Nine's life in their house is so clean."

Brother Jiu said: "That's the thing about relatives, it's easier to get along with them far away."

The fourteenth elder brother thought that the ninth elder brother and the others would be able to go out to play tomorrow, and his heart was itchy. He looked at the thirteenth elder brother and said, "Why don't we talk to Han Ama and treat it as if we are avoiding it, or else tomorrow they will If we come to the door again, we will be troubled..."

Brother Thirteen was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Shouldn't you come again?"

Brother Fourteen winked and said, "Who knows, maybe they will come again!"

Brother Thirteen knows that this is to use this banner to skip class tomorrow.

The fourteenth elder brother didn't even care about eating, so he dragged the thirteenth elder brother along and said, "Let's go now, Khan Ama is free..."

The two came and went in a hurry.

Brother Jiu was curious whether the two of them could ask for leave, and also curious about how many people were involved in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

At this moment, Shu Shu brought Walnut and Xiaosong back from the North Garden.

Brother Jiu sent Walnut and Xiaosong down, and said to Shu Shu, "It's so strange, fortunately, it wasn't the master who revealed the matter, but even the matter of the imperial dining room was also revealed!"

Not surprising when you think about it.

The Accounting Department is connected to the Yufeng Building, and the Yufeng Building is connected to the Imperial Dining Room, which spreads out.

Even though the Ministry of Internal Affairs hadn't started to check the imperial dining room, the families involved felt guilty.

Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "It's all about the prince. It should be over. If it drags on, who knows what other yamen will get involved."

It is true that the Accounting Department is a den case, and the imperial dining room is also a den case.

It's just that now that the children of these families have all retired, and the imperial dining room has not been moved on the surface this time, it will not be obvious.

Brother Jiu let out a sigh of relief and said, "This time, Ama Khan must have figured it out, there might be more people in the Yushi Yamen..."

Turn around and wait until the matter of the Accounting Department is over, and everyone loses their guard, and then investigates one by one.

Shu Shu thought of the three major weaving.

With such an inventory of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the accounts are gradually open and transparent, which is not a good thing for the three major weaving companies.

Cao Yin would not be able to embezzle the weaving silver to welcome him, and he would not make more and more deficits, which later became a crime.

Shu Shu said: "When I return to the House of Internal Affairs, it will be difficult to continue to investigate people. You have to be relaxed. At that time, you will think more about ways to increase the income, and promote more people in the House of Internal Affairs. This power will be dispersed. , the harm will be less..."

Brother Jiu nodded, waving his fingers and said: "Tangquan Palace is one place, and Royal Pot Cooking Field is one place..."

In the past two years, wool has been continuously transported to the capital, but only the best wool and cashmere have been transported to Jiangning. The official warehouse at Tongzhou Wharf still holds half a warehouse of ordinary wool.

"Set up a felt factory in the capital, but that won't sell for a high price!"

Brother Jiu said.

Shu Shu said: "Didn't Jiangning weaving come up with a process for cleaning wool? Then use wool spinning to weave the cloth. The woolen cloth made is not as soft as cashmere, but it is not bad for warmth. I guess It can be worn in February and August, even middle-aged people can afford it..."

Brother Jiu nodded and said: "That's good, I will write a letter to Cao Yin later, asking him to arrange some craftsmen to come to Beijing to be masters..."

Outside Qingxi Bookstore, the [-]th elder brother dragged the thirteenth elder brother into the duty room and waited.

Now there are people in front of the emperor, and the third elder brother is seeing you.

Thinking about the events of the past two days, there are many rumors about the third elder brother and various speculations.

It is said that the third elder brother acts vigorously and resolutely. These are "three fires for new officials to take office", and the first fire is directed at the accounting department.

I don't know where to stare at the next two.

Anyway, this gesture is a deterrent to the coating of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

There is also a saying that Brother San not only has both civil and military skills, but also knows about economics. After reading the accounting department's brochure, he noticed something was wrong...

Anyway, the third elder brother mentioned is not like the third elder brother.

Fourteenth elder brother whispered: "If you want me to say, it's 'a blind cat meets a dead mouse', otherwise the third brother's temperament, maybe he would go directly to the doctor of the accounting department and blackmail some of the official shops..."

The thirteenth elder brother felt that the third elder brother was a little greedy for profit, but he might not really be like this.

He said: "It's wrong, it's good now, the inner treasury will have more money every year in the future, and Khan Ama's travel expenses will also be ample..."

The national treasury was not rich in recent years, so whether it was Kangxi's northern or southern tours these years, it was all money from the internal treasury, which was very frugal.

Brother Fourteen thought about rewarding silver, and said: "At that time, I can reward a few more silver..."

They didn't catch up with the silver reward at the end of the year...

In Qingxi Bookstore.

The third elder brother held another booklet in his hand. It took a day today to calculate the total number of corruption in the accounting department over the years, as well as the relevant personnel involved in the distribution of the spoils.

In addition to the more than 30 people arrested yesterday morning, there are also officials who have worked in the accounting department before, some of them have retired, and some of them have passed away.

But the account books are also clear.

The money that each family is greedy for, the money that needs to be replenished...

In this way, the number of officials involved doubled again.

Looking at the booklet, Kangxi knew that he couldn't dig any more. He looked at the third elder brother and said, "Tomorrow, let the Punishment Department draft a crime according to the regulations. The first offender will not be forgiven, and the accomplices will be severely punished. The rest will be dismissed and redeemed if they make up the shortfall..."
