Chapter 986 Poisonous Gas (Part 1)

The next day, the Ministry of Revenue took shifts.

There were not many people in front of the emperor who heard the news, only three people, including the fourth prince of the head, the Secretary of the House, Sun Zaqi, and Cao Yong, the Minister.

The first thing I came out to report was the Fourth Prince or the matter of getting Kyokura.

In addition to the need to repair the granaries and add granaries, it is necessary to pursue the previous shortage of the Beijing warehouse, to recover the responsibilities of the corresponding officials, and to make up for compensation with their property, and to submit them to the Ministry for consultation.

This involves more than a dozen officials, and they are all inseparable from the official warehouse.

The so-called "ministerial discussion" is just a matter of whether they compensate for the money, whether the backend is hard or not, and then they are divided into three, six, and nine grades to be punished. Those who are unlucky become abandoned will not be dismissed from office or exile; those who have a master's protection will be demoted or transferred.

On the surface, they are just small officials, with high rank, and are only fifth-rank doctors, most of whom are sixth-rank or seventh-rank. In fact, if they are in the capital, how dare they embezzle the country if they have no reliance?

If you continue to investigate, you may have to uncover the fig leaf. Then, what is the face of the court?

With Kangxi's usual personality, for the good reputation of "a wise ruler", he would never allow the fourth prince to make such a big move.

I don't want to, but today is a bit abnormal.

After hearing the Fourth Prince’s report, Kangxi actually said “accurate”.

Cao Yong was surprised and couldn't help but secretly look at Kangxi.

At first glance, I just think Kangxi looks good, his face is rosy and radiant. When he pays attention, he will find that his forehead is covered with sweat and the flush on his cheeks is also a little wrong.

Cao Yong's heart tightened, he withdrew his gaze, and his heart was "thumping" and "thumping" in his heart.

Three hundred years later, people talked about the death of Kangxi and the ascension of Yongzheng's throne, and there was no accurate version. However, the roughly mentioned places are Changchun Garden.

Cao Yong never doubted this.

Because in recent years, when the Shengjia was in Beijing, most of the time he stayed in Changchun Garden and spent countless days in the palace.

The next day, it was Nanyuan Xingwei, and looking at Kangxi, it was already a bit reluctant.

Cao Yong was a little panicked, not because he felt a sense of affection, but because he knew that the Cao family's big tree was about to fall.

One day, Kangxi would remember the old love of the Cao family. There were three people with the relationship between the old lady, Cao Yin and Li family, which gave the glory of the Cao family for 60 years and three generations.

When the Fourth Prince ascended the throne, all these advantages were gone.

The Fourth Prince is also a nostalgic person, but he is a little bit over the extreme, and his likes and dislikes change too much, making people feel uneasy.

At this time, Sun Zhaqi had already left the list tremblingly, talking about the renovation of three palaces in Changchun Garden, Xiaotang Mountain and the Summer Resort.

After hearing this, Kangxi was silent for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The Ministry of Revenue's treasury and did not dare to spend money on it without using the teacher to provide hunger. It is said that this is all the fat of the common people. The repair matter will be discussed later."

It was Cao Yong's turn to leave the line, and the report was quite trivial.

The river work this winter and next spring will require three million taels of silver; the 18 counties of the three prefectures in Gansu and Shaanxi will be out of harvest due to severe drought, and hundreds of thousands of people need relief; the 25 counties of the seven prefectures in Jiangnan have caused floods, and in addition to relief, taxes will be reduced and exempted next year, etc.

There are seven or eight places in total, and Cao Yong has already handed over this detailed note this morning.

When Cao Yong reported the report, Kangxi had signaled Zhao Chang to find the memorial and sent it back to Cao Yong: "A river master will be approved, and the others will be discussed by the ministry." After saying this, he signaled everyone to kneel down and rest.

After Cao Yong followed the Fourth Prince and Sun Zhaqi, he heard Kangxi's suppressed cough before he could leave the imperial tent.

Sun Zaqi took a slow step, as if he hadn't heard it; the fourth prince frowned, hesitated for a moment, but the tent was still out; Cao Yong's thoughts thought of Longkodo again.

When we were walking around in Nanyuan, we came to the Eight Banners Guardians. There were also Eight Banners stationed in Changchun Garden. The commanders and deputy commanders of the Eight Banners in Beijing were all designated by Kangxi, so it was difficult to have any abnormal movement.

Will the Nine Gate Admiral’s Office block the capital?

Is there a big stir?

Cao Yong hesitated in his heart whether he should find a reason to get sick and avoid the storm. Then he denied this idea. At this turbulent moment, staying away from the center, the news will be blocked and everything will be passive. If there is a change, there will be no room for buffering.

At this moment, the fourth prince turned around and said a few words to Sun Zhaqi and Cao Yong, and then left in a hurry.

Sun Zaqi was trembling and had to take a step forward. Cao Yong had something to look for him, so he went with him and told him about the use of silver in the Lifanyuan.

Without further ado, Sun Zhaqi also knew that the silver was urgent. After a day of travel, the silver would be prepared soon.

This is related to the face of the court. There is also a hot Longkodo standing in the Lifanyuan. Cao Yong spoke again, so Sun Zaqi would not be boring.

But he was asked to be named, and he was very happy to sell this favor to Cao Yong.

But after the ups and downs of officialdom for a long time, he was cautious. When he returned to the tent, he deserved to be happy, but he did not immediately call the pen, but instead touched the reading glasses, looked carefully, and wrote down his name.

Because of his age, Sun Zhaqi was very afraid of the cold, so he left two servants in the tent to wait for the charcoal basin. Several layers of cotton pads at the door of the tent were used, covering the air conditioner so that even the air conditioner could not enter.

However, because it was snowing a few days ago, the charcoal was a little wet, which made the tent rush to have a strong smell of carbon dioxide.

As soon as Cao Yong entered the tent, he realized something was wrong.

He sucked it with his nose, sued him again, walked to the charcoal basin and looked at it, confirming that his guess was correct, Fang said: "Sir, wet charcoal produces gas, which is hindering the human body. Sir, please change two charcoal basins, and the gas in the room will also dissipate."

"Gas?" Sun Zhaqi put down his pen and touched his beard and said, "At first I felt choking. After two days of smoke, I have adapted a little, so it's okay."

Seeing that he disagreed, Cao Yong said, "Can you feel dizzy, nausea, palpitations, and weak all over the past two days?"

Sun Zhaqi hesitated, nodded, and said, "That's true, it's just like this when you wake up early, and then you'll be better off going out for a walk."

"This is the reason for the wet charcoal. Fortunately, the symptoms are mild, otherwise they will be dangerously tight." It was not Cao Yong's exaggeration that the harm of gas poisoning should not be taken lightly at all.

He had a cousin who died on the night of his newlywed trip and his husband, and the cause of death was gas poisoning.

After two years of colleagues, Sun Zaqi knew that Cao Yong was not a talkative person. He gave this for a few days just for his own good.

He thought about it and it was true. After staying in the tent for a long time, he would feel dizzy and stuffy; going out for some breathing will make it more comfortable, and there is something wrong with the tent.

He fell down with sincerity on his face and sent Cao Yong out of the tent.

The Han Shangshu Tian Congdian rested due to illness and was not good at disturbing him with official duties, so he no longer had to make a special trip to find him for his name, which saved Cao Yong a little.

Next, as long as the fourth prince checks out the document, he can hand it over to the imperial court. Therefore, after coming out of Sun Zhaqi, Cao Yong went to the fourth prince's account.

The Fourth Prince's tent is located in the east of the Imperial Camp, and several nearby tents are from the royal palace of Beile Mansion.

Cao Yong ran away because the fourth prince was not in the account.

Although Cao Yong was curious about where the Fourth Prince went, he was not qualified to ask about the appearance of a prince. He had to say that if he had something to do, he would meet the Fourth Prince and come back in the afternoon.

The memorial in his hand will be handed over to the imperial court tomorrow morning, and before that, the Fourth Prince must be allowed to look at it so that he will not be picked up by him.

Before I could return to the account, I saw Xiaoman coming to him.

"Didn't I say it? If there is no need, you should not leave the base easily." Cao Yong frowned.

As long as Kangxi is in the place, it is the center of fluctuation. Cao Yong did not want to have any hidden dangers, so he had already given instructions to several of his family members.

"It's the second master who is here, waiting for his master to go back in the tent. Unexpectedly, the prince has arrived too. The young man has no choice but to come out to find him." Xiaoman wiped the sweat on his head and said.

Cao Yong took out his watch and took a look. It was less than noon.

When Geek Yanpile wanted to see Hang Seng, Cao Yong was reluctant and arranged it for a while, just this afternoon. Unexpectedly, both of them were a little anxious.

Cao Yong speeded up his pace, and Xiaoman could only keep up.

In Cao Yong's tent, the scene of father and son meeting seemed a little deserted.

Geek Yan Pile looked at Hang Seng's face greedily and said in a hoarse voice: "You are much taller than last year, and your appearance is growing... More and more... I think about it more and more like your mother..."

Compared to his excitement, Hang Seng was much calmer.

Hang Seng is unfamiliar with the man who regards himself as his father, and he is wary of it.

In the past two days after returning home, Cao Yong had a plea to him and mentioned his future and future.

In Hang Seng's eyes, the Cao Mansion is the real home, not the so-called Khan's Mansion that is thousands of miles away.

After hearing Ge Keyan Pile's words, Hang Seng's expression remained unchanged and he did not respond.

Seeing that he was silent, Ge Keyan Pile felt very unbearable. No matter how good the Cao Mansion is, it would be a residence.

He thought Hang Seng was wronged, and finally couldn't help it and said, "I will go back to Khalkha in a few days. It's not easy to live under someone else's roof. You can go back with me!"

This did violate the agreement he had with the Cao family last year, but he did not feel guilty at all.

The adopted son of Cao's mansion and the companion of the emperor's grandson looked decent, but in fact he was vulnerable.

During these days, I met occasionally. Ge Keyan Pile looked at Hang Seng like a young follower behind Hongli, and felt very unhappy.

Hang Seng raised his head and looked at Geerkyanpile with a clear expression.

My father was right. The person in front of me was really coming to control his life under the banner of "collar workers".

Seeing that he didn't speak, Geynpile just thought he was moved and said, "You are my son, the little master of the Khan's mansion, and the people of Zasaktu will crawl at your feet. It is a place with plump water and grass and vast world. You will definitely like it."

When Heng Seng heard this, he felt a little confused in his eyes.

According to my father, the "father" in front of me has another wife and two legitimate sons.

There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate, and it is not revealed in the Cao Mansion, but it is very particular outside. Without legitimate sons, the illegitimate sons are inherited. Children all know why this person wants to deceive themselves?

Hang Seng has heard and witnessed over the years that he is a little tired of being the "cowardly son" of the Mongolian crown prince.

Hang Seng replied loudly, his tone very firm. "I want to study in the capital..."
