Chapter 2046 Gangs

The grand ceremony of Chuan Lu is a great dynasty.

Luan Yiwei set up a lubufajia in front of the Taihe Hall. Under the eaves of the Taihe Hall were music clubs and vocal attendants on both sides.

Prince Heshuo and below, and those above Duke Bafen, lined up to ascend to the throne.

The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs is on Danqi.

According to the ranking, the Bengshi Gongshi are ranked after the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.

In this way, even before the roll call, everyone already knows the candidate for the top pick.

It's just that I'm too far away, so I can't see clearly.

Brother Jiu stood in the queue and was also curious.

It's just that he is preceded by Ba Age, and behind him is Baile Yanshou.

The one in the front didn’t want to talk, and the one in the back was unfamiliar.

Brother Jiu suppressed his curiosity.

Amidst the sounds of ritual music, the ceremony was solemn and solemn.

However, Jiu Age is not unusual. He has already participated in it three years ago and has seen it before.

The complicated ceremony didn't end until the second quarter of the lunar month. The holy driver got up and returned to Qianqing Palace in his imperial chariot.

Everyone knelt to see him off.

When Brother Jiu stood up, he felt that his waist was straightened, his legs were weak, and he staggered.

I stood there for more than two hours.

The tenth elder brother was walking over, and when he saw this, he helped the ninth elder brother's arm.

"Brother Ninth..."

The ninth elder brother relied on the tenth elder brother's strength to stand firm and said: "I ate too few sesame cakes this morning..."

The food I ate in the middle of the night was almost gone after half a day, and I was so hungry that stars appeared in my eyes.

Brother Ninth took out his purse directly from his sleeve, put a piece of pork breast wrapped in glutinous rice paper into his mouth, and stuffed another piece into Brother Ten's mouth.

"Fortunately, He Yuzhu was sent to Baiweiju early to book a table, but he was still hungry..."

Brother Nine said.

“Baiweiju’s banquet?!”

The fifth elder brother was following the fourth elder brother. Hearing what the ninth elder brother said, he hurriedly looked over and said, "What's the deal?"

Brother Jiu said: "I ordered a few roast ducks, a lamb to be roasted, and the 'yellow diamond' transported from the Chaobai River..."

Although he planned to have a banquet, he did not plan to eat alone. He also planned to call a few brothers over.

But I couldn’t eat so much, and I was planning to take half of it back to Haidian.

The fifth elder brother touched his stomach and said to the fourth elder brother: "Come on, hurry up, let's go together, we are already hungry."

The princes are all on the throne. The difference is that the three who are not knighted are in the prince's class, and those who are knighted are arranged according to their title.

As a result, several young brothers are behind.

The thirteenth elder brother and the twelfth elder brother walked side by side, neither of them spoke.

Here, the fourteenth elder brother is following the eldest elder brother and mentioning the banquet in Nantou.

"It's so fast. In the past, it was the older brothers who treated guests, but now the juniors are old enough to treat guests..." said the fourteenth elder brother.

The eldest brother said: "We are all uncles and sisters. They are no different from real sisters. We can't all know each other. We can just play together."

He pitied his daughters for losing their mothers. He was a loving Ama and hoped that his daughters would live a relaxed and comfortable life at home in the past few years.

The fourteenth elder brother looked at the prince's silver chariot going away, nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, the first master, Gongsun, and the relatives are not much different. If you leave them outside in ordinary people's homes, and those who separate the family late, they are still in the same pot.

There’s food in there!”

Tsk tsk!

Princess of Yuqing Palace had not organized a banquet, but Princess of Zhijun Prince's Palace had already organized a banquet.

According to the order of seniority and youngness, it is not wrong.

But in the royal family, there is still a distinction between superiority and inferiority.

The boss is also very thoughtful.

Does this count as deliberately trying to win over people?

Even if he didn't bring the brothers under his command, he was still showing off to the prince.

The eldest son and eldest brother are different after all.

Although it was Sangege who was hosting the banquet, the fourteenth elder brother also thought that Dagege from Zhijun Prince's Palace was actually the same as himself.

He looked at the eldest brother's beard, his face was warm, but his heart was full of curses.

Why did Emperor Taizu later choose his youngest son to be the heir to the throne of Yutong County? It was not because of the old Manchu custom of "the youngest son guarding the stove", but because he disliked the older son who was too old, right?!

In the later years of Taizu, Prince Lilie was in his late forties, and Emperor Taizong was also approaching forty.

The third elder brother and the eighth elder brother asked about the banquet at Xinjun Prince's Mansion.

He had heard a lot of gossip in the past few days, and he was also curious.

"Lao Jiu really didn't give face to Prince Xin, the banner leader, and left without even using his chopsticks?"

Third Brother asked in a low voice.

There are rumors outside that the ninth elder brother has become a gangster.

The third elder brother always felt that it was a bit nonsense. If he really didn't want to see Prince Xin, he would just not go to the banquet.

Even if you are gone, you have to be okay on the surface, otherwise you will have nothing to do to show off your temper at a relative's house?

It's just that Brother Jiu has always been picky about his diet, and he doesn't eat well, so he probably doesn't use chopsticks as much.

The eighth elder brother glanced at the third elder brother and didn't know how to answer.

He had also heard some rumors from outside, most of which were exaggerations, but they were not groundless.

It is estimated that the elder brothers in the palace were dissatisfied with the arrogance of the ninth elder brother and complained to others.

He didn't want to say anything to the third elder brother. Later, the third elder brother would make things even more jealous and he would be the one stirring up trouble.

Prince Xinjun's palace has been in a state of flux these days, and the Eighth Prince doesn't want to get dirty.

However, the eighth elder brother did not want to defend the ninth elder brother. The worse the ninth elder brother's popularity in Zhenglan Banner was, the better it would be for him.

He changed his subject and said: "The pox epidemic in the capital last year delayed a lot of weddings. After the new year, the clan was swarming with wedding banquets. I heard that many families borrowed money from the Ministry of Household Affairs."

The third elder brother lamented: "There is nothing we can do. Who said extravagant marriages are popular nowadays? The dowries are getting richer and richer, and the betrothal gifts are also rising. Even if the Khan Ama is gracious and gives money to the clan for marriage, but that few silver

What's enough for you? Marrying a wife and a daughter is not something you have to break your muscles and bones."

The eighth elder brother nodded and said: "Yes, usually in the general's palace, a married woman will borrow thousands of taels of silver; in the Duke's palace, the loan will exceed ten thousand taels..."

It's getting hot today, and it's almost early afternoon, when it's about to get hotter.

The third elder brother took out the folding fan from his sleeve and waved it: "Nonsense, that's just taking advantage. It's taking advantage in the name of marrying off your children!"

If you really lend money, half of it will be spent on your children, and the rest should be put out to earn interest.

Saying this, the third elder brother's heart moved.

Eat interest?!

Everyone knows that the imperial court has not had any large expenditures in recent years, and the household department has been rich in money.

This borrowing of money is a gift. If others can take advantage of it, why not take advantage of it yourself?

It’s just not good to do it in your own name.

I have money from a separate family and my children are young, so I have no suitable reason to borrow money.

But there are many officials under his name, the highest official is the fourth rank, and he is qualified to borrow money.

The third elder brother was about to make a move, but the eighth elder brother lowered his eyes when he saw it.

The third elder brother is known to be greedy for money, but he is timid and loves fame.

By borrowing official silver, you can take advantage without taking risks. How could Third Brother miss it?

It can only be said that the eighth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother thought of getting together.

What I think is "the law does not punish the public".

Different from the Fourteenth Prince, in addition to "the law does not punish the crowd", he also wants to "conform to the crowd".

There's nothing wrong with turning back like that. I wasn't the one who took the lead. I just followed the crowd, so I can't bear the blame.

The third elder brother was distracted and slowed down.
