A younger brother actually gives advice on his elder brother's inner house?!

Seeing that he was angry, Brother Jiu knew that he had gone too far and showed pity, saying: "What if my brother has no son? At that time, I won't be able to adopt a nephew. Anyway, I don't want a bastard."

Brother Si couldn't bear it anymore and felt a little soft-hearted. He waved his hand and said: "Stop talking nonsense and go back quickly!"

Prince Zhuang is fifty years old, but he is still visiting Yizi's concubines all over the world. How old is the ninth prince to say this?

Brother Jiu hurriedly walked out.

Si Fujin just happened to bring bird's nest porridge over. When he walked to the door of the study, he heard Brother Jiu talking, and it was hard to come in.

When the ninth elder brother saw him, he grinned and whispered: "Fourth sister-in-law must hurry up and add an elder brother..."

After saying that, Si Fujin quickly walked away without waiting for anything to say.

Sifujin stayed where he was, his heart filled with tenderness.

Originally, she thought that her fourth brother would be uncomfortable, so she persuaded him to go to Li Gege.

Having someone with you makes you feel better.

Now, she doesn't want to persuade...

Brother Ninth came and went in Sibeile Mansion in a hurry. When he returned to the Second Mansion, it was not yet Xu Zheng, so he had to change his clothes and go there to continue to support him.

He didn't return to the second house until it was nearly the beginning of the year, after seeing off the guests.

snort!

That's all he said.

I don’t really want to adopt the little brother from Sibeile Mansion.

Not to mention Sibeile Mansion, even the son of the tenth elder brother and the ninth elder brother have given up their thoughts.

Too many people is troublesome.

The main reason was the files read by the Ministry of Punishments, which had a great impact on him.

Some of them were family feuds, and several of them were related to adoption.

Among them, there are many cases where the heirs abuse their elderly parents and are constantly involved with their biological parents.

There are also brothers who continue to adopt children among their brothers, who imitate the same example and find ways to kill their brothers so that their sons can continue to adopt children.

There are all kinds of things, all for money.

Those were just gentry and merchants, fighting for hundreds of acres of land and a few shops, and they were fighting to the death.

How much title and property does a prince's mansion leave behind?

In the early years of Prince Zhuang's Mansion, there were rumors of heir selection.

After all, he does not have a biological son, but he has two younger brothers and nephews, especially his younger brothers. There are many descendants there, there are only four of them, and there are only three legitimate sons.

His younger brother originally had the title of county king, but later he lost his title because of his career, so he was deposed and became an idle clan member. His sons lost their futures.

For this reason, they naturally focused on the position of heir to the royal family.

Prince Zhuang seemed to have a quarrel with his younger brother, and he didn't want to adopt his younger brother's son, so he still begged for a son.

Brother Jiu thought it was too troublesome.

Neither he nor Shu Shu likes trouble.

Therefore, he no longer only cares about the adoption of this daughter.

The nonsense I talked about in Sibeile Mansion just now was just to "reciprocate a favor" and say that Sifu Jin was good.

Brother Jiu was soaking his feet and thinking about sending someone to the south study room tomorrow morning.

According to Shu Shu's habit of writing one letter every ten days, isn't it time for a reply?

If you haven't, you've missed it.

A night of silence.

The next day, the ninth elder brother waited for the twelfth elder brother, and the two brothers went to Yuqing Palace together.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor are not in the palace, and Concubine Wen Xi has passed away. Today's "meeting ceremony" for Brother Ten and Shi Fujin is only in Yuqing Palace.

On the way, the ninth elder brother remembered that the twelfth elder brother behaved well yesterday and obeyed orders obediently. He was also a good younger brother, so he said: "They say that Jiangnan is prosperous. Do you have anything you want? I will buy it for you when the time comes."

The twelfth elder brother thought for a while and said: "They say there are many ancient temples in the south of the Yangtze River. If the ninth brother goes, please help me buy two strings of Buddhist beads..."

Having said this, he paused and said: "Next year is my aunt's ninetieth birthday. If it's convenient for Ninth Brother, I can help my brother provide some lamps to my aunt."

This aunt is his adoptive mother, Aunt Su Ma.

Aunt Su Ma was born during the Wanli period and is eighty-nine years old this year.

Brother Jiu listened and was about to nod when he remembered the trip from Paddock Road to Shengjing last year.

At that time, we passed temples along the way and they also offered lamps.

He said to the twelfth elder brother: "Since you are filial, you can't just offer lamps to Aunt Sumama, but also Khan Ama and the nobles."

Otherwise, it is easy for others to pick on you.

Especially Khan Amar's side. He has many sons, and he won't take it seriously if he forgets one. But if that son leaves him behind, he will be unhappy.

Brother Jiu felt that he had mastered the trick to make the emperor happy.

As for the "noble person" he mentioned?

In the first month of the year, concubine Wan Liuha, the mother of the twelfth elder brother, and concubine Dai Jia, the mother of the seventh elder brother, were promoted to noble status along with the concubine Wang, the mother of the fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother.

Although in terms of daily supplies, these people have long followed the rules of the nobles, but without the title, their names are not upright, and they are not qualified to go to Ningshou Palace to pay their respects.

It will be different from now on.

Brother Twelve obviously didn't expect this.

After hearing the reminder, he thought for a while, nodded and said: "Then just pay for everything. My brother will send someone to send the money to the second house later."

Brother Jiu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of you first, and I'll settle the score with you later."

It's not that he is stingy as an elder brother and is reluctant to part with dozens of taels of silver, but that this is the filial piety of the twelfth elder brother, and naturally he still has to be counted on the twelfth elder brother.

Otherwise, it will be his offering.

However, this also reminded Brother Jiu that after arriving in Jiangnan, he planned to find a temple with effective incense and offer it to Concubine Yi.

In fact, he didn't believe it in his heart.

But what if it works?

In the Yuqing Palace, there is a side hall at the front.

The princess has come out.

Because the Four Fortunes have arrived.

The princess followed him out and talked to Si Fujin.

She expressed her worries to Sifujin.

No matter whose belly it came from, it was the son of Si Age and his wife.

For Sifujin, it was uncomfortable to have a bastard who was just three months short of his eldest son.

But there is such a huge difference between the direct descendants and the concubines that it doesn’t matter.

With this concubine here, Sibeile Mansion seems to have less weak heirs, which is better.

Si Fujin sighed and said: "I was in poor health earlier, so our master specifically asked for help to suppress it. Unexpectedly, he was still very sad..."

Daimyo...

The princess felt a little confused.

The eldest brother of Yuqing Palace has already started to go to the study room to study, but he hasn’t officially been named yet. Why?

The Crown Princess knew clearly.

The prince is waiting, and so is the emperor.

She looked down at her belly, feeling a little out of breath.

How many more years will be left for her?

You can't wait until your eldest brother Aktun becomes a Ding.

She didn't know that because of her, Kangxi was not happy with the two grandsons born by Li Gege.

He felt that the biological mother of the two royal grandchildren was not of good character and was suspected of colluding with Aunt He to murder the mistress.

It's just that Kangxi didn't mention this to the prince.

There are only three elder brothers in the East Palace now, and the one from Li Gege occupies the first two, and he is already standing there.
To be continued...
