The ninth elder brother looked at the twelfth elder brother and Gao Bin.

Brother Twelve lowered his head and was looking at the paperweight in front of him.

What catches your eyes?

Aren't they just two sapphire plates?

It's bare, not even a word of auspiciousness.

Gao Bin was helping Brother Jiu organize his official documents on the desk, as if he didn't notice anyone else in the room.

This kid is quite sensible. If you dare to laugh at him, ask Fujin to save that walnut until twenty-five!

Brother Jiu grinded his teeth and followed Wei Zhu out.

"Prince Zhuang went to the Imperial Palace this morning?"

He was worried and asked in a low voice: "What did you tell Khan Ama?

Apart from this one, there seems to be no other place to be punished, right?

The fourth brother's lesson was right, he was too generous.

He only remembered to strike first and block Prince Zhuang's mouth, but he left a small tail.

Wei Zhu shook his head and whispered: "Prince Zhuang didn't come, but Prince Jian came..."

Brother Jiu was not angry after hearing this.

snort!

Complainant!

Even if you think he is wrong, shouldn't you say it in private first?

Why do you have to go to the imperial court?

Isn't this a fire?

He should be taught a lesson in private, and then he would go to apologize to Prince Zhuang and settle the matter.

Take the credit for yourself!

He remembered clearly that Prince Jian asked Lao Shi to send a message to inquire about the hot springs in Xiaotangshan.

I fell in love with a piece of land to the west of the palace.

This time, if he doesn’t raise the price, he is not the ninth master, but the ninth grandson!

After a while, we arrived at Qianqing Palace.

Brother Ninth let go of the injustice and anger in his heart.

Otherwise, by showing traces, wouldn't Wei Zhu be deceived?

Wei Zhu wanted to give him a heads up, but he also had to think about not hurting others.

All he could think about were the two official documents he had dealt with yesterday, and he entered Xinuang Pavilion with a sense of apprehension.

Kangxi was feeling unhappy. Looking at Brother Jiu's expression, he said angrily: "You still know that you are guilty?"

Brother Jiu glanced at him and said with some caution: "This...did Concubine De say something? Or did the Empress say something?"

Kangxi was startled, then frowned and said, "What did you do again?"

Brother Ninth told him honestly about the two job vacancies he had dealt with yesterday.

Kangxi's brows relaxed a bit, but he still reprimanded: "It's superfluous! Since the previous candidate is out of line, just reject it directly and let the other party draft it again. What else are you talking about?"

They are both "selfish" and "bad people"...

"Hit people without slapping them in the face, and expose people without exposing their shortcomings. What will the people below think of you if you do this?"

It seems that we are talking about the Wu Ya family and the Guo Luo Luo family, but there are not only these two surnames in the harem relatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but there are more than ten families.

Brother Jiu said sarcastically: "My son just thought too much and was afraid that they would be working outside in the name of the prince, so he wrote one more sentence."

Kangxi shook his head and said, "Then there's no need to confront him with a glare like that. It's better to deal with it slowly."

But overall, he was quite satisfied.

If the Ninth Prince is really nepotistic, or using the civil and military positions in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to sell to other princes' mothers, then he will be worried.

But when he thought of calling Brother Jiu over, he glared at him again and said, "I have learned etiquette for more than half a year, but have I learned it in a dog's belly?"

Brother Jiu immediately admitted his mistake and said: "My son felt guilty at the time. He was afraid that the uncle would come to question him, so he thought of taking a preemptive strike and ignored the rules..."

As he spoke, he told the situation at that time: "My son sent Gao Yanzhong to deal with the affairs of Qingde Ban. Not knowing that it was Prince Zhuang's family, he thought there was someone behind it, so he sent him directly to the Infantry Dutong Yamen.

I went there, and after interrogating the shopkeeper and the manager, I found out that it was related to the palace. At that time, my son was afraid that the uncle would come to question him, so he took an excuse and sent He Yuzhu to find Shi Gui..."

Since Kangxi had read Si Age's excerpts, he naturally knew who Shi Gui was.

He looked at Brother Jiu, still dissatisfied and said: "If you don't do anything wrong, why do you feel guilty?"

There was nothing wrong at first, so even if he sent someone there, the Yamen would have been a bit reckless, and I wouldn't blame someone who didn't know, but the handling afterwards was too bad.

The one who was in the wrong became the ninth elder brother.

Brother Jiu glanced at Kangxi and whispered: "That is my son's cousin, or an old prince. He is respected and noble. How can my son not be afraid?"

"Hmph! Are you afraid? Then you dare to sell the land in Tangquan for fifteen taels of silver per acre?"

Kangxi said with a dark face.

If he remembered correctly, the land in Xiaotangshan ranged from high to low, and at a moderate price, it seemed to be less than five taels of silver per acre.

Brother Jiu had promised him before that he could sell twice as much.

The results of it?

This is more than three times.

Brother Jiu hurriedly cried out: "Khan Ama, that's different. That's the boundary next to the palace. Originally, my son planned to leave it to Khan Ama as a reward. There are two particularly good springs with very high temperatures.

He can boil eggs, which is most suitable for health. That is to say, the uncle is the elder. If it were anyone else, let alone fifteen taels of silver per acre, even twenty taels or twenty-five taels would not be available here..."

"real?"

Kangxi looked suspicious.

Brother Jiu nodded hurriedly and said, "Why are you lying to me son?"

Speaking of this, he hesitated and said: "But my son did neglect a little bit, and he was just thinking about how to remind the uncle..."

Kangxi asked: "What's wrong with that land?"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "The land is good, and the spring is also a good spring. The son is afraid that the uncle is too eager to ask for a son, and it is not good enough. After all, it is hot soup... The eggs can be cooked. If you soak it for a long time, it will not be good.

Already..."

Kangxi didn't understand what "that" was at first, but when he figured it out, he stared at Brother Jiu speechless.

Brother Jiu hurriedly warned: "My son was frightened by the uncle's madness, so he was worried about this. Khan Ama, just listen to it, but don't leak it to anyone. My son has rummaged through the medical classics, but there is no relevant information."

According to the records, I estimate that the impact will not be big. My son just thinks about hot spring eggs and is a little worried. Maybe his worries are unfounded..."

Kangxi felt that he would not be able to eat eggs within a few days, and did not want to hear the words "hot spring eggs".

"I'm still too busy, thinking about these useless things all day long..."

Kangxi snorted coldly: "How many emperors in the past dynasties have praised Tangquan. If there are really the disadvantages you mentioned, will the imperial doctor look at it in vain?"

Brother Jiu still felt that he couldn't say anything, otherwise he would have to bear the consequences.

He said: "Anyway, my son thought of a way to deal with it. He took some soft linoleum cloth from Guangchuku and planned to ask the needleworker to make two pairs of trousers and then give them to the uncle. The uncle will understand what it means.

Bar!"

Kangxi: "..."

Does he feel that his brain hurts more?

Did you hear that right?

Want to send obscene pants to Prince Zhuang?

Are you afraid that there will be no news in Beijing?

But Brother Jiu's ability to think of these also shows that he still has elders in his heart.

He knew that for Prince Zhuang, heirs were the most important thing, so he was so careful.

Most of the unhappiness in his heart was gone.

He used to be very worried that the princes and elder brothers would use their status to despise the princes of the clan.

It is true that they are princes, but the princes of the clan were also princes and grandsons.

If they are now using their status as the current princes to despise their elders, can the next generation of princes also follow their example?

If that happens, the atmosphere will be bad.

The relationship between the clan and the royal family will become tense, which is not conducive to stability.
To be continued...
