Chapter 1964: Worry (please ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket)(1/2)
Chapter 1965 Worry (please ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket)
The fourth elder brother works in the household department and the thirteenth elder brother works in the work department. Both of them have to go to the Yamen.
Seeing this, Brother Jiu hurriedly said: "Then I'll go home first!"
The fourth elder brother was stunned and said: "Aren't you going to manage the feudal court?"
Brother Thirteen also didn't understand and said: "Yes, it's time to go to the Yamen. You still want to rest. Look back carefully and I know that Amma knows how to train people."
Brother Jiu pointed to the sky and said: "Seeing that it's noon, what are you going to do in the Lifanyuan at this time? It seems rude, go there tomorrow morning when the office is open..."
After listening to this, Brother Si felt that it made some sense.
The key is that the Minister of Lifanyuan may not be in the Yamen all day.
After lunch in the morning, I had no choice but to go do other errands.
When Ninth Brother went to the Lifanyuan for a walk, he always said hello to the Minister of Lifanyuan first, and then made arrangements for room service and manpower.
Brother Jiu saw that he was no longer nagging and got into the carriage.
When the brothers reached the intersection, they split into two roads.
The ninth elder brother went north, the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother went south to the sixth division.
Brother Thirteen said: "Brother Ninth is still the same as before. If you can rest for half a day, you can rest for half a day."
The fourth elder brother is thinking about managing the vassal yamen. The current minister is Hayaltu. Before that, he was the censor of Zuodu and the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Later, due to the Mongolian lawsuit, he was demoted five levels in the imperial censor's office in Zuodu, and later he was promoted to minister of the vassal academy.
However, he is still the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
He and Brother Jiu are also old acquaintances.
The fourth elder brother was relieved and said to the thirteenth elder brother: "The North Canal will be repaired this winter, and the Ministry of Industry will be busy."
The river repairs must avoid the flood season and can only be started in autumn and winter.
However, some preparations in the early stage will not be easy.
Thirteenth Brother said: "Not only the North Canal, but also the Zhengzhou section of the Yellow River has not been repaired for several years. The Yamen side of the river also wants to have major repairs."
In the early years, most of the money spent by the imperial court on river management was spent on the Huanghuai section of the lower reaches of the Yellow River.
Now that the downstream is well managed, it is reasonable to move forward.
Fourth elder brother let the matter go.
Now that we have cement, it is suitable for flood control. The Treasury Department's coffers are also rich. The Hedao Yamen wants to flex its muscles. It is the right time and the right place.
The Ministry of Industry must cooperate with us. If we do it well, it will also be the political achievement of the Thirteenth Brother.
On the contrary, the thirteenth brother glanced at the fourth brother, hesitated, and said: "Fourth brother, the fourteenth brother is now walking in the household department."
Fourth elder brother: "..."
For a moment, I forgot that I still had this troubled younger brother.
The Thirteenth Brother and the Fourteenth Brother grew up together, so they naturally know the donkey temper of the Fourteenth Brother.
He still favored his fourth elder brother in his heart, fearing that the two brothers would have a dispute in the same yamen.
When the time comes, no matter who is right or wrong, most of the blame will fall on Brother Si.
Who calls him brother?
The thirteenth brother suggested: "The fourteenth brother is a docile donkey. Fourth brother, why don't you praise him more?"
The fourth elder brother frowned and said, "That will make him get more and more angry!"
Thirteenth Brother: "..."
With the temper of the fourteenth elder brother, this is really what he would do.
Seeing that the thirteenth elder brother was worried about him, the fourth elder brother said: "You should go on your errand. I know how to deal with him."
The two brothers talked and arrived at Qipan Street.
The fourth elder brother entered the Hubu Yamen, and the thirteenth elder brother continued to the Gongbu Yamen.
The two ministries are very close to each other and face each other diagonally.
The fourth brother entered his room and noticed the difference.
There are many more things in the middle hall.
There is an extra pot of banana tree and an extra goldfish tank.
There is also a tea set on the coffee table.
Fourth brother looked at it, feeling very awkward.
Who has a banana tree in a pot?
Whose goldfish tank uses a painted tank?
And what’s going on with that feather duster?
There is also the tea set, which is actually colorful and has not been cleaned and tidied after use. There is also half a bowl of tea soup.
Last year, he shared the small hall with Brother Jiu and didn't feel any inconvenience.
Brother Ninth also loves to toss, but he only torments his own West Wing.
The small hall in the middle will never be messed up like it is now.
This is the prince's room, who dares to touch it?
The fourth elder brother looked at the door curtain of the west room, his face darkened.
In the west room, Brother Fourteen was looking at the files of the Eight Banners Division.
It's just that what he is concerned about is not the changes in private property, but the number of remaining princes, lieutenants, and lieutenants in each banner.
According to the order of the elder brothers, the twelfth elder brother will most likely follow the tenth elder brother and raise the red flag together.
Then the Thirteenth Brother and he will eliminate the red flag.
Three princes have already flagged down the Xiangbai flag. The most likely candidates for him and Thirteenth Prince are the Xianglan flag and the Zhenglan flag.
It just so happens that the Two Blue Banners still have quite a few princes and lieutenants.
Although the fourteenth elder brother knew in his heart that the knighthood of the younger brothers might have to be postponed for a few years, he did not delay him in spying on the affairs of the flag.
Hearing movement at the door, the fourteenth elder brother raised his head and saw the fourth elder brother holding up the curtain and coming in.
The fourteenth elder brother put down his face and said with a bit of annoyance: "He is also my biological brother, and he didn't even tell me if he changed the gift list!"
Fortunately, he was young, not yet married, and had no children, so he was not deceived like the third elder brother.
The fourth elder brother endured his anger and said: "You haven't become an Ama, the emperor's grandson, or the emperor's granddaughter. What does it have to do with you?"
The fourteenth elder brother made a strong argument and said: "You shouldn't hide it from others. Humph, earlier everyone talked about brothers, friends and brothers, and they caught up with the truth. Why don't you think about 'brothers and friends'?"
Today's birthday gifts are all grabbing the limelight, making the younger brothers behind them seem like they don't exist.
The fourth elder brother was too lazy to grind his teeth with him. He pointed to the middle hall and said: "Take all the mess away. This is a yamen, not a place where you can live at home!"
The fourteenth elder brother was sitting there. After hearing this, he stood up and said: "I know you don't like me, so you really started to find faults with me. Why is it such a mess? Potted plants and goldfish are for eyesight, and feather dusters are too."
Indispensable!”
Brother Si patiently said: "Then you carry it into the house and don't put it in the hall."
The central hall is a place for talking and entertaining guests, so it would be nice to keep it as simple and clear as in the past.
The fourteenth brother crossed his arms and raised his chin and said: "It's well laid out in the hall. Why don't you move it into the house? This is a small place in the house. It's crowded even if you don't put anything in it!"
The fourth elder brother looked at the fourteenth elder brother with a dark face.
The fourteenth elder brother sneered and said: "As an elder brother, you can't be so domineering, right? Half of this valuable room belongs to me, so I can't be the master of the middle room? At worst, I will ask everyone to move to the west wing.
!”
Brother Si glanced at him and turned around to go out.
I really don’t want to say a word.
I thought that Brother Fourteen would make progress after he became a man, but he still behaved the same way in the monastery.
The fourteenth elder brother looked at the fourth elder brother's back, his face lost the pride and became more gloomy.
How is it like being an older brother?
He didn't ask a single question about the errands, and started to find fault with himself.
He finally saw that the brothers above him had selfish motives.
From now on, it will be normal for you to cheat me and I to cheat you.
Just be more secretive.
Just like today, the third brother fell into a trap without doing anything.
To be continued...
