Zhang Bao was standing nearby and couldn't help but nod his head when listening to Brother Jiu's words.
Throughout the dynasties, any dynasty that has a clear and transparent government has never targeted the censor.
This time the censor directly attacked Jiu Age. Although it was a bit unexpected, there was nothing he could do about it.
The relationships in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are intricate, forming aristocratic families of all sizes.
The censor thought that he had nowhere to start, so he used the impeachment of Ninth Prince to frighten the Imperial Household.
The twelfth elder brother felt a little weird.
Why is Ninth Brother so generous and tolerant?
Aren't you the most stingy?
The censor slapped him directly in the face but he didn't hold a grudge?
Speaking of laziness...
What kind of laziness is being late and leaving early?!
Officials sit in government offices and are divided into different levels.
The Lang officer below has to stay up for a long time, and I didn't hear that the chief officer has to stay on guard.
The twelfth elder brother felt something was wrong and looked at the ninth elder brother suspiciously.
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "Okay, work hard, why are you thinking so much?"
After that, he asked He Yuzhu to pack his things.
If he doesn't come here for two months, his things won't be taken away by others.
In the drawer of the bookcase, there is his little golden abacus.
On the book eucalyptus, there are placed an inkstone with lotus flowers, a pen washer with mandarin ducks, a penholder with branches, and a pen holder with lilies.
Brother Ninth Brother brought them all from home, some were given by Shu Shu, and some were bought by Ninth Brother.
In Shu Shu's study, Brother Jiu had similar changes.
I have no choice but to live a smooth life because I just like to see couples.
Brother Jiu told He Yuzhu: "Put it away carefully. If you bump into it, you will be suspended from your monthly salary for half a year!"
He Yuzhu became more careful and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine. Everything is fine. If my slave is broken, I don't dare to break my treasure!"
Brother Twelve looked puzzled and said, "Brother Ninth, didn't you say two months?"
Brother Jiu rubbed his neck and said, "Who knows, if Khan Ama finds out that I have great talent, he may arrange to reuse it elsewhere!"
Brother Twelve: "..."
I always feel that my ninth brother is somewhat unaware of himself.
After everything was packed and Brother Jiu left the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, his face was drooping.
At the gate of Xihua Gate, when the guards who were on duty came to greet them, Brother Jiu ignored them and walked towards the carriage without stopping.
Look at the eunuchs and boys following behind, all carrying large and small bags, and their hands are busy.
What news has Master Jiu made again?
Brother Jiu got on the carriage, but his expression did not improve.
He felt a little aggrieved.
He himself was timid, Khan Amma also sympathized with him, and his wife also warned him. In the final analysis, it was because those slaves were daring.
If they were really pushed into a hurry, they would go crazy without thinking and dare to attack him, the prince.
Doesn’t Khan Amma dare to force them?
The carriage was passing through the imperial city. Brother Jiu held up the curtains of the carriage and his eyes fell on the two guards standing next to him.
You must know that according to the statistics of the Shunzhi Year, among the Eight Banners, the Manchu population accounted for 17%, the Mongolian Eight Banners accounted for 80%, and the remaining 75% were Han troops and Baoyi.
Among these 75%, the Han army and Baoyi's population were almost equal.
In this way, the Baoyi population accounts for 40% of the Eight Banners.
Thirty percent of these coats are from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which in the imperial city amounts to tens of thousands of households with a population of 50,000 to 60,000.
Brother Jiu's face sank and his hands and feet felt cold.
At the entrance of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Shu Shu had just gotten off the carriage when he heard the sound of wheels coming from the street.
Xiao Song looked around and said, "Fu Jin, it's Master Jiu who's back."
Shu Shu was startled and left early again?
She came out of Ningshou Palace at the third quarter of the first lunar month, so it should be around the second quarter of the first lunar month.
She went in without any hurry and waited at the door.
He Yuzhu followed the car, saw it, and reminded him: "Sir, Fujin is back too, waiting at the door of the house."
Brother Jiu took a long breath and said: "Hurry up, don't ask Fujin to wait, the sun is shining!"
The carriage sped up.
In the time it took for him to speak, he arrived at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.
Shu Shu looked at the carriage and didn't see Brother Jiu, so she felt something was wrong.
The faces of the people following him didn't look very good.
Got reprimanded again?
Brother Jiu got off the carriage, looked at Shu Shu and said: "It's too hot, why don't you go in..."
After saying that, he felt uneasy again and asked: "Are your legs tired? First, you went to the West Sixth Palace and then to the Ningshou Palace. You have walked a lot today?"
Shu Shu did not answer hastily, but took Brother Jiu's hand and replied with a smile: "The queen has called the chariot, you are not tired..."
Brother Jiu's hands were covered in cold sweat, and he looked frightened.
Isn’t today the day when the Holy Emperor returns to the palace?
What's wrong?
Shu Shu was surprised in her heart, but she didn't show it. She only said with annoyance: "I'm really getting stupider and stupider. I promised to go over to ask my mother-in-law Guo Luoluo how to do the ceremony today, but I forgot about it.
I went there, and I didn’t think of this until I left Di’anmen.”
Brother Jiu comforted him: "It's too late to ask again next time. They didn't come to the house to say hello, which is already a sign of neglect. How dare they pick on our etiquette?"
Shu Shu said: "I'm right, they should have come to the door first. Now that I've seen my little girl for two months and no one is around, I have a grudge."
Brother Jiu sneered and said: "It must be because of a guilty conscience. When I took Guiyuan to top the tank, I had bad intentions. I didn't settle the score with them, so I already gave them an advantage!"
When he said this, he hated him so much that he said: "I shouldn't have left them with dignity, they just got angry. It would be honest if the whole family was sent to Ninggu Pagoda!"
Guo Guiren harmed the prince, which was a "big irrebellion", and the whole family was not taken lightly.
He was so angry that he was trembling.
Shu Shu followed beside him and echoed: "I'm wrong, I shouldn't think about asking the empress. When the time comes, what should I say to the empress? To say that I don't pay attention to them would seem to be unfilial to the empress; if I say
Talking to them seems to be making things difficult for us, so be it, if you don’t talk to them, don’t talk to them!”
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "That's right! If you are a filial mother, you are not above this. If you really get stuck with them again, if you don't pester me and fifth brother in the future, you will pester Shiba..."
Thinking of the "holes" in the Accounting Department, Brother Jiu remembered the corruption in the Construction Department the year before last.
One visit to the palace can cost thousands of taels of silver in repair costs.
Since the Guo Luoluo family occupies the site of the Construction Department, how much money will they get?
Most of the savings in the hands of the empress were given to their brothers, and they did not add up to twenty thousand taels.
The annual pocket money that Guo Luoluo's family gave Guidan was sixty taels of silver. This was just pocket money and did not include food and clothing.
The Guo Luoluo family has a gifted house, and there are about ten or twenty people who look after the house.
The old house in Shengjing is a large house with five entrances and three spans.
The sons of several families are not divided into families, and the population of the household below is estimated to be around a hundred people.
"I want to go to the Criminal Department..."
When they got to the house, Brother Jiu couldn't help but said to Shu Shu.
Shu Shu didn't know how to answer the call. Wasn't it so frightening that he went to the Ministry of Punishment to see the eucalyptus that he couldn't sleep at night?
Brother Jiu sat by the kang and said angrily: "If I were in the Ministry of Punishments, I would just ransack Guo Luoluo's house and see how much money he had embezzled!"
Shu Shu couldn't help but laugh and said: "But the Ministry of Punishment can't control Guo Luoluo's family!"
If Sanguan Bao still serves as the left leader of the Shengjing Internal Affairs Office, he will go directly to the Criminal Division if he commits a crime. Now that he is resigning, he will be under the control of the Infantry Command Yamen.
Brother Jiu remembered what happened there when he went to Shengjing, and said: "I really think that I am a relative of the emperor. The uncles and wives are not official, but looking at their clothes, they are no worse than the ones in Sanqi."
Seeing that he was getting more and more energetic as he talked, Shu Shu said, "Sir, I don't want to destroy my relatives right now. Even if I want to clean up the Guo Luoluo family, it's not appropriate for me to take action!"
Brother Jiu sighed and said: "That's what I said. It's just bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Daobao and Guidan have already beaten each other, so it can be considered a punishment..."
At this point, he whispered about what happened in Xinuang Pavilion in the morning, and said: "I felt aggrieved before, but after coming from the imperial city, I know why Khan Ama is careful.
There are more than a thousand people, and there are 1,200 people in the guard camp. These more than 6,000 people are all taking turns serving as guards in the palace..."
Except for the hundreds of guards at Shangsanqi, these more than 6,000 people were the closest to the Imperial Palace.
"I thought about it for a moment. Even if Khan Ama touches the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he won't do anything big..." Brother Jiu said.
Shu Shu was thinking that it was the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi's reign, and Kangxi was forty-seven years old this year, still in his prime.
If the matter were revealed ten years later, he might have dealt with it more gently.
Now, with this thunder and rain, it is really hard to say.
"Don't worry too much, sir. The population of Baoyi is very dispersed. A family with a large number of people will end up in one left collar. At most, it will overflow to the second left collar. Therefore, the influence of each family is in this left collar.
"Zhong, unlike the Eight Banners nobles, who often have six or seven left-wing leaders, now that the die-hards are eating the crops, how many of them really dare to risk rebellion?" Shu Shu comforted.
Brother Jiu thought for a while and said: "That's right. Also, the Eight Banners separated early. Even if they come from the same family, the brothers may have different futures and may not be united..."
Shu Shu said: "Since the Emperor is considerate, I can just 'ground him' honestly."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "I understand."
He lay down on the kang outside and said: "I really thought that Khan Ama had fucked my head of the House of Internal Affairs. He was also thinking about the front yard. Except for the Lifan Courtyard, I don't want to go anywhere else. If it really doesn't work, just
Go to the residence of Lao Shi Hun Sect..."
Shu Shu had previously thought that the Ministry of Internal Affairs was a safe place without involvement in the previous dynasty, but now that she thinks about it, it is also a big pitfall.
She thought about it and said, "When this time passes, if I want to manage the vassal academy, why don't I talk to the emperor?"
Brother Jiu was a little moved, and then he shook his head and said: "Forget it, the eldest brother is already twenty-eight and nine, and he is still walking in the ministry. If I go over there, you can't expect to supervise the affairs of the academy for ten or eight years. You will still be doing odd jobs by then. Now,
The teacher is a minister, and I don’t think he will last long. He has too many errands to do concurrently..."
He looked at Shu Shu and said: "Don't worry, Khan Ama has finished dealing with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it's clean over there. I don't want to make room for it..."
*
The main office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The 10th elder brother's face was ashen when he heard what the 12th elder brother said about the ninth elder brother's suspension from being in charge.
The twelfth elder brother still said angrily: "They just bully the weak and fear the strong. They knew that Ninth Brother would not attack before attacking Ninth Brother. They are all villains!"
Brother Ten was speechless, but he understood what was going on.
This is when Khan Amma is going to tidy up the Ministry of Internal Affairs!
It is better to have the censor reveal this matter than Brother Jiu to reveal it.
It's not a good thing to have resentment all over yourself.
However, when Ninth Brother checked Yufeng Tower before, his whereabouts were somewhat exposed, so he may not be able to hide it from those who are interested.
Looking back, the old foxes were alert, wondering whether they could have guessed Brother Ninth.
The tenth elder brother didn't show it on his face. He gritted his teeth and said: "What a censor, such a big official, he really doesn't know what he is up to..."
After that, he turned around and left.
The twelfth elder brother was stunned for a moment, then chased after him, saying: "Tenth brother, ninth brother is not angry..."
The tenth elder brother frowned and said: "Ninth brother is gentle, I can't stand this!"
After leaving Xihua Gate, the tenth prince asked the guard for a horse, mounted it and rode quickly.
The twelfth elder brother was at a loss, but he didn't know how to stop him. Seeing the tenth elder brother's horse getting further and further away, he hurriedly trotted to keep up.
Fortunately, in the middle was Jingshan West Street, which also had shops and lots of people coming and going. The 10th Prince couldn't ride his horse, so he slowed down.
The twelfth elder brother was panting and reluctantly put it on.
After a short while, the tenth elder brother arrived at the Yushi Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
This is a courtyard with three entrances. There is a plaque hanging at the door that reads "Inspection of the Imperial History Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs".
He got off his horse, picked up his whip and walked in.
"Damn slave, get out of here!"
The tenth elder brother entered the courtyard, ran to the door of the main hall and shouted, "Deng, Deng, Deng, Deng!"
The two censors and Bi Tieshi in the front hall were alarmed by such a big movement and came out of the main hall.
The tenth prince was wearing regular clothes but with a yellow belt, so he looked like the clan master.
The foreman came forward and said respectfully: "This is where the Yamen is. May I ask who this gentleman is..."
Before the tenth brother could finish speaking, the whip had already been thrown away, wiping the sleeves of the man's clothes, and landed heavily on the stone floor with a "snap" sound.
The censor was startled and hurriedly hid behind him. The other Bi Tie Shi didn't dare to stop him even if they wanted to.
The tenth brother's whip flew around, and he cursed as he whipped it: "I'm giving you face, right? It's not good to stare at someone. What's wrong with staring at my ninth brother? He's a bald prince who bullies our brother?"
The yard is a mess.
With just these two sentences, anyone who understands will know the identity of this person. This is the tenth elder brother who has the best relationship with the ninth elder brother.
Everyone looked at the two censors with complaints.
How brave you are, daring to go to the ninth elder brother with all your strength. The "Three Fires for New Officials" didn't do this.
The twelfth elder brother stood at the door, looking at where the tenth elder brother's whip fell, thoughtfully.
Is the accuracy of Brother Ten's whip so bad?
After beating for a long time, only two of them were whipped, but the whipping was light.
Such a big movement has already alarmed the people around.
All of a sudden, at the door of the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there were all the old and young men watching the excitement...
