Chapter 313 By Kangxis side

Danning House is located on the east side of the south gate of Changchun Garden (Main Palace Gate). It is covered with gray tiles and has a simple style. It is the place where Kangxi deals with government affairs on a daily basis, summons important officials, and discusses major events.

However, the Qingxi Bookstore where Kangxi lived was located in the small east gate one mile north of Danning House.

The place where Yuzhu lives is called Bamboo House, but it is actually a typical Jiangnan bamboo courtyard.

The Jiangnan Bamboo Courtyard is next to the east of Qingxi Bookstore, which is on the original site of the Enyou Temple built after Yongzheng.

Kangxi had always known that Yuzhu was lustful, so he agreed to him early, and could bring a concubine and maid to serve his daily life.

Yuzhu knew that Kangxi had to stay in Changchun Garden at least four months a year.

So, Yuzhu didn't be polite to Kangxi and brought Lin Yan'er and Xingjiao over.

This arrangement is mainly due to the need to get evenly rain and dew, and neither of these two women have a son yet.

Yuzhu knows better than anyone else that women in this era rely on the favor of men in the first half of their lives, and in the second half of their lives, they enjoy the blessing of their own son.

In the bamboo courtyard, Yuzhu lives in the main room, Lin Yan'er is in the east wing room, and Xingjiao takes over the west wing room.

After everything was arranged, Yuzhu washed his face, changed into the dusty old official uniform, put on his new official uniform, and then went into Qingxi Bookstore and went to Kangxi to serve him.

In Qingxi Bookstore, large ice cubes placed in copper basins can be seen almost everywhere. The little eunuchs held small fans in their hands and fanned the large ice cubes from time to time.

The whole indoor is at least twenty degrees lower than the outdoors, which is extremely cool.

Kangxi leaned against the imperial concubine's couch, held the book in his hand, and read it page by page.

The concubine Wang was peeling grapes for the old emperor to eat, while the old Eighteen was studying in the study next door.

Alas, Kangxi's little life was extremely free and happy.

After Yu Zhu was summoned by Kangxi, he saw that the eighteenth-old mother Wang was also there, so he knelt down and greeted her very cleverly.

"The Chief Executive of the Office of the Internal Affairs, Yuzhu, please respectfully invite the Emperor and the Holy One."

"Yili." Kangxi put down the book in his hand, looked at Yuzhu with a smile, and asked him deliberately, "I don't seem to call you, right?"

Yuzhu said with a saliva: "You are cool here, but it's too hot there."

Kangxi smiled silently. Yuzhu, the child, had always been talking about everything in front of him, and would never hide it.

To be honest, Yuzhu's personality is indeed good, and it is reassuring to use it.

The older the old emperor was, the more he liked young ministers who could speak, do things and were very loyal.

"Well, go to your aunt's house and see if the icebergs there are enough. If not enough, just order someone to pick them up and record them on my list." Kangxi glanced at Wang's towering buttocks, and suddenly became interested, so he made an excuse to drive Yuzhu away.

“Ware.”

After coming out of Qingxi Bookstore, Yuzhu led his eunuchs Qin Wang and Lai Fu to Ningchun Hall where Concubine Xiao Tong lives.

Yuzhu is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and naturally needs to walk through the emperor's backyard. However, it is impossible for servants such as Wujiang, Wu Sheng and others to follow him.

The little eunuchs Qin Wang and Lai Fu are both young eunuchs whom Kangxi appointed.

Among them, Qin Wang is Liang Jiugong's disciple, and Lai Fu is Wei Zhu's Gansun. The two of them are just watching each other.

Ningchun Hall is located on the north-south dividing line of Changchun Garden. The north is Houhu Lake and the south is Qianhu Lake.

Go to Yuanjianzhai on the east side from Ningchun Hall and pass through the large arch bridge.

It goes without saying that Concubine Xiao Tong lives here, which itself represents Kangxi's emphasis on her.

Yuzhu is now an insidious minister of the emperor. He wanted to meet Concubine Xiao Tong, which was ten thousand times easier than before. He could just find a reason and report it to him.

Because Yuzhu is the emperor's confidant butler, and Concubine Xiao Tong is the actual host of Changchun Garden's backyard.

Their aunt and nephew naturally need to meet frequently and discuss various matters.

After the ceremony, Concubine Xiao Tong was extremely happy and not only gave her a seat, but also ordered someone to brew the Biluochun that Yuzhu likes to drink.

"Look, your forehead is full of sweat, and your official uniform is soaked. Come and take a fan to relieve the fever for Zhuer." After Concubine Xiao Tong stopped taking charge of the Six Palaces, there were no more taboos. She directly ordered the palace maids to fan the Jade Zhu with the fan.

After bowing his hand and thanking him, Yuzhu smiled and said, "You are full of icebergs, which are very cool."

There were more than a dozen large icebergs in large copper basins here, and the hall was really cool.

"Hey, it's not your blessing. You have become the chief executive. My icebergs have also produced a lot of more pots than in previous years." When Concubine Xiao Tong said this, she deliberately glanced at Qin Wang and Lai Fu standing behind Yuzhu.

Qin Wang and Lai Fu were both clever. They understood very well, but they closed their mouths tightly and their heads were hanging very low.

There are indeed certain rules in the palace.

However, because of her special favor, Wang, the biological mother of the Eighteenth, has a comprehensive range of food, clothing, and consumption beyond the treatment of the poor concubine.

In a nutshell, if you have a holy favor, you are qualified to enjoy treatment that exceeds the standard.

Otherwise, even a little thing in the fixed order will be deducted layer by layer and turned into a cold soup left over from others.

Now, Yuzhu has become the immediate superior of the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Whether it is from Guangchu Department or from the purchasing office, who dares to neglect Concubine Xiao Tong?

If you offend Yuzhu to death, isn’t you trying to commit suicide?

Yuzhu knew it in his mind that Kangxi deliberately made an excuse to send him away because he wanted to be intimate with Wang.

Now when I go back to Qingxi Bookstore, I can only seek abuse from myself, and I feel sweaty when I am outside.

It would be better to have a comfortable time with my aunt and father, drinking tea and chatting.

Yuzhu stayed with Concubine Xiao Tong for two and a half hours until he had dinner before returning to Qingxi Bookstore.

Because the eight hundred people from Yuzhu were still on the way back to Beijing. Now in Changchun Garden, the guard forces are varied.

There are both the Shangsanqi Baoyi Cavalry Camp, the Shangsanqi Baoyi Guardian Camp, the Eight Banner Forefront Camp, the Eight Banners Knight Camp, the Guards of the Guards, the Luanyi Guards, the soldiers and horses of the Imperial Court, and the sword-bearing guards of the Imperial Minister, etc.

Among them, the cavalry camp and the military guard camp formed by the three flags and coats of the upper three flags are collectively called the three flags and battalions of the three flags of the inner court, and are dispatched by the general manager of the inner court.

Specifically, among the three general managers of the Office of the Internal Affairs, whoever is on duty has the right to temporarily control the troops of the Office of the Internal Affairs, the three banners and two battalions.

If you don't serve, you have no right to command.

Just from this mutual restraint arrangement, we can also see how powerful Kangxi's emperor's mind was?

Yuzhu, the chief supervisor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is also known as the Coat Counselor, or Coat Counselor.

In other words, as long as the Jade Pillar is on duty, all the coats of Shang Sanqi must follow his instructions.

Kangxi, who was comforted by Wang's service, heard that Yuzhu was back, smiled slightly and said, "Very nice little clever guy, I've never returned until now."

Yuzhu played a few games with Kangxi. When he arrived at Changchun Garden, he took his men and lanterns and began to patrol around.

Unlike the Forbidden City, there is almost water everywhere in Changchun Garden.

Yuzhu was more careful. When patrolling, he ordered people to light a torch, sit on a boat, and inspect it carefully around the lake shore.

The garden was too big, and it took Yuzhu two hours to complete the comprehensive inspection.

Unlike before, Yuzhu is no longer a first-class shrimp in the imperial examination. It is not his turn to patrol in Qingxi Bookstore.

Fujun Temple, located near the middle line of the garden, is the place where Jade Pillar enters the garden.

When Yuzhu returned to the temple, Qin Wang brought the hot tea with great strength and said in a slanderous manner: "Master, I just brewed it, drink it while it's hot to relieve my fatigue."

Lai Fu held a fan in his hand and was very attentive to blow the wind on Yuzhu.

Who is Yuzhu? He understood at a glance that he was dedicated to his care without any reason, either a traitor or a thief.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, Yuzhu washed his face with cold water, then took a cotton veil, wiped his whole body, changed into a silk jacket, sat at the desk easily, and began to deal with the accumulated official documents.

The one on the top is the small selection of a woman who was coated with three flags in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Yuzhu understood at a glance that the selection of the women of the Three Banners of the Interior Ministry is once a year. Qin Wang and Lai Fu must have specific candidates who need to be taken care of.

Unlike the women who are drafted once every three years, only women who are coated with the Three Banners of the Interior Ministry are eligible to participate.

In history, there are many examples of becoming a palace maid through small selections, but becoming famous. Among them, the most famous are Liangfei Wei, Defei Wuya and Lingfei Wei.

When Yuzhu finished processing the official documents at hand, it was already dawn.

When Qin Wang was giving Yu Zhu a wash water, he twisted a towel for Yu Zhu and said trepidly: "Master, you are still missing a few palace maids to serve you."

As usual, there can be two small eunuchs and two small palace maids around the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to show the emperor's special favor.

Unlike the beautiful girl, the palace maids are just low-key things, and the emperor doesn't care too much.

However, under normal circumstances, foreign ministers are afraid of suspicion of being under the melon field. No one of them dared to leave palace maids to serve them by their side.

Yuzhu washed his face, threw the cotton veil in his hand into the basin, and said coldly: "Stop having those bad thoughts, tell me, who do you need me to take care of?"

The palace maids arrange to do miscellaneous work or arrange to go to the empresses. The difference between them is like a world of difference.

Liangfei Wei, if she were not as beautiful as a fairy, would be difficult for her to stand out in the world where she was washing clothes.

Defei Wu Ya, if it weren't Yuzhu's father, Empress Xiaoyi would have wanted to keep Kangxi on the pretext of her, it would not be her turn to stand up.

Qin Wang handed over the order, and Yuzhu calmly glanced at it, and there were as many as eight people.

"It is impossible for everyone to take care of it. You can choose two of them yourself, and the rest will be helpless." Yuzhu rewarded Qin Wang for his face, but only gave him half.

Because, eunuchs with some abilities in the palace cannot hang themselves on a boat.

Qin Wang asked for Yuzhu and would try every means to ask for Ma Wu or He Yi.

Yuzhu is not a young bird in the officialdom, how could he agree?
