Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 42
On the contrary, Si Age's evaluation in Kangxi was very good.

Yinzhen had lived in a dream once, and he saw many things more clearly. Although he acted decisively, his methods could not be called gentle, but he acted with a certain degree of advance and retreat. Kangxi nodded in his heart to approve of his actions.

Kangxi saw many advantages of this taciturn son, and felt that he really deserved to be his son, and he was also well taught by his cousin.

As for Concubine De, who gave birth to Yinzhen, Kangxi didn't want to associate her with Yinzhen at all. The matter of choosing "Four Fujin" has not yet passed by Kangxi!

If he doesn't pay attention to his son, then just stay in Yonghe Palace honestly!
Kangxi was also a very tempered emperor, if he was not comfortable, then she should not be comfortable either.

The investigation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs by Yin Zhen and the third elder brother was not a small matter, although it was an internal matter of the royal family.

The coated slaves had existed since the Qing army entered the customs. After several generations of marriages, the relationship has become intertwined. Although it is not as intricate as the Manchurian clan, it is still a force that cannot be ignored.

Yinzhen checked carefully, and the more he checked, the more frightened he became. From his point of view, this problem is not small.

When he saw the relationship between the coated servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he thought about it in the long term. The food, clothing, housing and transportation of everyone in the palace were in the hands of the coated servants, even the midwife who gave birth to the concubine, the prince's elder brother, etc. Nanny and mother are all handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Those slaves in the Ministry of Internal Affairs have intertwined relationships and interests. It doesn't matter if the ruler is wise, but if the ruler is a little confused, then the Qing Dynasty can basically be said to be in the hands of the slaves.

This made Yinzhen unavoidably think of the fact that the eunuchs controlled the government in the former dynasty. Maybe he was the emperor for a while in his dream. The more he thought about it, the more frightening he felt, and then he "reported" this matter to Kangxi.

As for the original intention of the investigation at the beginning, it became secondary. However, the Ministry of Internal Affairs does have the habit of being greedy for good things, and the statement is exactly as Tong Chenger said. I am afraid that the nobles are used to good things, and they will not be able to produce so much. ,Offend.

When Yinzhen heard the words, he just wanted to swear, because the things were rare, he kept them for his own use. If they were really not enough, then he would just supply them to Huang Ama, and the others didn't dare to say anything.

Yinzhen sent the things he investigated to Kangxi's desk, and then said: "Go back to Huang Ama, I have written all the things I found on the booklet, please Huang Ama have a look."

Kangxi knew how hard he checked, picked up the booklet and said, "Okay, I'll take a look."

Kangxi actually understood the truth that when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and he also knew that this booklet might not look too good, but when he saw it, he still couldn't help being shocked, and then furious.

"These dog slaves really know how to fill their own pockets. They eat better than me. They don't dare to give me rare things, so they use them themselves. They are really capable. Those with rich families are almost catching up with me. It’s a private treasury, I really think it’s a display.”

Yinzhen was not surprised by Huang Ama's anger, and knelt down: "Please Huang Ama calm down, it's not worth being angry for these people."

Kangxi calmed down the anger in his heart, and then said to Yinzhen: "You have done a good job. The Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for the royal family's food and clothing. It is a contempt for the majesty of the royal family to enrich one's own pockets. I will never tolerate this matter. I leave it to you and the crown prince to do it, check what should be searched, and what should be ransacked."

Kangxi was really angry. He claimed to be an emperor who was as wise as Tang Taizong, but it turned out to be a good thing. The servants below dared to be obedient and disobedient, and their food and use were better than him.

It was also this result that made Kangxi a little shaken. Can he really be compared to Tang Taizong, is he really a wise emperor?
Even the Ministry of Internal Affairs dared to lie to him, so what about civil and military officials?

Kangxi also doubted himself for a moment, and then strengthened his will. He couldn't think like this, as long as he worked hard to rectify, he still had a chance.

Yinzhen was a little surprised when he heard the words. He and the third elder brother had done this together, but the prince had to inspect it with him.

"Huang Ama, where is the third brother?"

After Kangxi inspected the House of Internal Affairs this time, he had a problem with the son of Yinzhi. Since he didn't want to offend others, he should stay in the upper study room and study for two more years, so as to learn how to be a monarch, a minister, and a son of man.

"Where is the third child, I have other arrangements, you go out."

On the same day, the prince received the news that Kangxi asked him and Yinzhen to conduct a thorough investigation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and stated that the people involved would not tolerate it, and asked someone to copy the paperwork that Yinzhen had found for the prince.

After the prince read it, he was surprised that his emperor, Ama, was furious. He felt uncomfortable looking at this booklet. As a prince, he had never used many things, but the coated servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs could use them in private. .

No wonder Huang Ama was angry.

But thinking of investigating the House of Internal Affairs, the Prince also had a headache. After all, there is his nanny among the staff in charge of the House of Internal Affairs. It is very difficult to be alone in the whirlpool.

But when he thinks that the world will be his in the future, then the Ministry of Internal Affairs is now counting as having his share of greedy people, so it is time to investigate thoroughly.

Thinking of this, the prince ordered someone to find his nanny Ling Pu to discuss how to solve the troubles in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

On the other hand, the third elder brother received the oral order from Kangxi ordering him to go to the study to re-study almost at the same time as the prince.

The third elder brother just came out of the upper study room to run errands, but before finishing the first errand, he was thrown back to the upper study room, that is to say, Kangxi was very dissatisfied with his ability to handle errands, otherwise why would he have to study again.

And this is the first treatment of the prince elder brother, he doesn't look good on the inside, the third elder brother is full of anger, but he dare not tell Kangxi, and then put the grudge on Yinzhen, if it weren't for him If the investigation is serious, it will not be obvious that he is not good.

Yinzhen was thinking about how to rectify the Ministry of Internal Affairs at this time, but he didn't know that the third elder brother had already hated him.

As the prince's nanny, Ling Pu is very close to the prince, and because he works in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the prince can also get a lot of benefits on weekdays.

Ling Pu was hastily summoned by the crown prince, and he said respectfully, "My servant greets the crown prince."

"Get up!"

Seeing the seriousness on the prince's face, Ling Pu said cautiously, "I don't know if the prince is in such a hurry to call the slave, what orders do you have?"

The crown prince frowned: "Do you know that Huang Ama wants to strictly investigate the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

It's impossible for Ling Pu not to hear any rumors, so he said truthfully: "The slave knows something, and the fourth elder brother didn't hide it when he checked. Don't worry, the prince, it's all children's small troubles, and it won't make a difference."

Seeing Ling Pu's appearance, the prince knew that he probably did not miss the benefits of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"The fourth brother is no longer a child. He has checked everything that should be investigated. Huang Ama was very angry when he saw what the fourth brother found out. He wanted to thoroughly investigate the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then handed over the matter to Gu He. Fourth brother, do you think it can be successful?"

Ling Pu was startled when he heard the words: "How could it be? Can the fourth elder brother really find out?"

Hearing this, the prince didn't know what Ling Pu was thinking, that he belonged to him, and Ling Pu didn't tell him that it was inconvenient for him to do things in the palace.

Ling Pu will definitely survive, the key is how far he can survive.

The prince said: "What do you think? You have to deal with Gu. To be honest, how much have you meddled with the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Ling Pu really didn't dare to tell the truth. As one of the chiefs of the House of Internal Affairs, he should be involved in everything. It is one thing that he failed to withstand the temptation, and the other is that others are greedy. If he is "pure and pure" among them , I really can't get it together.

Ling Pu didn't say a word, and then the prince knew that he probably did a lot.

"If you don't tell Gu now, if you really want to find out something, Gu can't protect you. This time Huang Ama really wants to investigate thoroughly, and his attitude is very firm."

Ling Pu still didn't hold on in the end, and said everything that needed to be said.

What Ling Pu said was trembling, and the prince was also shocked when he heard it. He was a prince, so he was supposed to be knowledgeable, but he was still shocked when he heard Ling Pu's words.

Seeing the prince's face getting more and more ugly, Ling Pu finally said: "The slave's time in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is still short, and he only took a small part. In fact, the big head is not with the slave, and most of the slave's income is used to help you. Now, please ask the prince to show the slave a clear way."

Ling Pu's words were true. He knew that if he wanted to gain something, he had to invest, so he spent a lot of time in buying people's hearts for the prince, and spent money. He basically spent all the money he got from greedy money on managing contacts for the prince.
