Although Xinyu and Suo'etu are both the prince's great-uncles, because Suo'etu is the leader of the Hesheli family, apart from his uncle's room, it was Suo'etu's room before the prince came and went.
As for Xinyu and the legal guardian below him, the prince was not very familiar with them. He only knew that they were the two legitimate sons of his great-grandfather Sony.
As for the prince's deceased grandfather, he was the son of a concubine, while Suo'etu, whom the prince relied on, was the son of a concubine.
In the early years of Kangxi's reign, Xinyu almost became the master, but later because he chose the Yuan Dynasty Queen from his family, the matter of becoming the master could not be settled. The first wife married the Guarjia family, a cousin of her uncle's family, and the second wife married the daughter of the clan's aunt's cousin.
In recent years, with the silence of the Hesheli family, the female family member who came to socialize on behalf of the Hesheli family was Mrs. Xinyu.
In the prince's impression, the fifth uncle and grandpa were mediocre and honest, but he did not expect that such a big thing would happen. Although the fifth uncle and grandma were a daughter of the clan, her natal family had an ordinary title, otherwise she would not have become a successor.
She has a soft temper, is respectful to the Crown Princess, and is not as domineering as the clan daughter.
February thirty-eight...
The prince's heart trembled and he did not dare to look into Kangxi's eyes.
Suo'etu was not registered for execution, and before he died, he personally strangled his two older sons...
It was also after Xinyu tortured and killed the people in his household...
What on earth is the Hesheli family involved in that makes them so panic-stricken?
Kangxi mused: "When something happens, you must give an explanation to your subjects."
Others interceded with Xinyu, but the prince could not come forward.
The prince is the prince of the world, not the prince of the Hesheli family.
Kangxi sent the prince over today to tell him about the matter and to ask him not to get involved, so as not to involve him.
The prince nodded, understanding the importance, and did not want to dwell on the time when Xinyu killed the person, so he just said: "Khan Ama, do you want to correct the minister of the Huangqi Ling guard?"
Otherwise, Xinyu, a noble man who walks with the flag, would not be at the forefront of the storm at this time.
Kangxi looked a little gloomy. Although he was wary of the princes of the Lower Five Banners, he was still confident in his control of the Upper Three Banners.
Especially in the past few years, he has cleaned up several descendants and only treated them as subordinates of the Three Banners.
As a result, the selection of a minister in charge of the bodyguard caused trouble.
Kangxi wanted to clean up the dead branches and leaves of the Hesheli family, but he had no intention of destroying the Hesheli family.
Even if Xinyu is a strong candidate to become the Minister of the Bodyguard, he will not use Xinyu to be the Minister of the Bodyguard.
This is not only true for the Hesheli family, but also for the Niu Hulu family and the Tong family.
If they really wanted to be used, they would not have been expelled from the palace guards for reasons, calls, or dismissals.
But if he doesn't use it, it's not the same thing as if others don't want him to use it.
Kangxi thought about the families who were eligible to be candidates for the title of minister of bodyguard. Perhaps they were from the Zhenghuang Banner, perhaps from the other two banners, and possibly the Niu Hulu family and the Tong family.
In the early years, the selection of the ministers of the bodyguard was only limited to the nobles of one's own banner. In recent years, the high-quality flag vacancies of the Eight Banners are no longer limited to one's own banner. The nobles of the other two banners are also eligible to apply for the vacancy of the Zhenghuang Banner.
Kangxi didn't like the infighting among the three banners.
Therefore, Xinyu needs to be dealt with, and at this time, the person who exposed Xinyu's case must also be dealt with.
If the other party wanted to criticize the prince from across the mountain, he would not tolerate it.
The prince was talking about the vacancy of a minister in the bodyguard of Zhenghuang Banner, but he was thinking about the Hesheli family.
His uncle's title of Duke Cheng'en was suspended, Suo'etu's first-class Duke was dismissed, and Xinyu's first-class uncle could not be saved.
The Hesheli family is really going to be reduced to a second-class family...
After the prince left, Kangxi wrote instructions on the official document of the clan's residence, arresting Xinyu and thoroughly investigating his illegal activities...
There are only more than 400 miles between the capital and Rehe. Nowadays, there are hundreds of royal relatives and ministers of civil and military affairs in Rehe, and there are also a lot of people sending letters to and from the capital.
Within a few days, the news that Xinyu was detained and questioned by the clan spread in Rehe.
Brother Jiu was so curious that he murmured to Shu Shu: "No matter who revealed the matter, he has accumulated great virtue. The life of a slave is also a life. Can he really be regarded as the same as a cow and a horse? It's true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
When it comes to the fifth master of the Hesheli family, everyone says he is honest and cowardly. He has been quiet for more than ten years and there has been no movement. Unexpectedly, he is actually ruthless and evil in private."
Shu Shu felt something was wrong and said: "It looks like silence at this time, but considering Xinyu's age, he should not be able to interfere in the affairs of the palace, so it won't be like this..."
Xinyu is Sony's old son, and is about the same age as Yuan Hou's niece.
When Soni died, Xinyu had not yet reached adulthood, and the man who attacked the first-class man was six years younger, so the head of the Hesheli family became the bastard Soo Etu.
Brother Jiu said: "No matter what the reason is, if you kill him, you will kill him. It is not unjust to ask the crime this time."
Shu Shu felt surprised in her heart, as if something was guiding history to happen.
Historically, Soetu was only tried this year and executed next year, and the Heshel family was also implicated.
Now Suo'etu died three years ago, but the Heshel family is still not spared.
Brother Jiu also heard about the vacancy of the minister of the bodyguard of Zhenghuang Banner. He called Erhe and asked: "Two of your family are serving as ministers of the bodyguard. They should be better informed than others. What's going on? It's the capital."
There are rumors that Xinyu is the main recommendation?"
Erhe said blankly: "This servant is also confused. Now there are two vacancies among the ministers in charge of the bodyguard. This is different from the vacancies in the ministry. No matter who is the main or deputy presumptive, the selection still depends on the emperor's will."
Brother Ninth Brother said: "Then let's find out carefully. Is it because of this incident or because there are other enemies in the Hesheli family that this case was revealed?"
Erhe made a note of it and asked friends and relatives of Sanqi.
Regarding other people's affairs, Brother Jiu mentioned it to Shu Shu and then put it down.
Shu Shu, on the other hand, knew that the "death of the prince" was about to begin.
Now that Xinyu is being dealt with, it doesn't look like an official feud, but more like testing the emperor's feelings towards the Hesheli family, and cutting off the prince's wings.
She then indirectly reminded Brother Jiu: "I must be more respectful to the prince, otherwise the emperor will see it and may not be happy with it."
Brother Jiu gritted his teeth and said, "I don't like to curry favor with people. It's better to keep them at arm's length like you are doing now!"
Shu Shu didn't say anything else, and just said: "The emperor is pity for the weak. This is so heart-breaking. The Hesheli family has been completely suppressed, and the prince has lost the support of his mother's family. The emperor has always loved the prince, and he should not see others hurting the prince.
"
After hearing this, Brother Jiu thought thoughtfully and said: "Khan Ama is really like this. The fifth brother and I have been treated better in the past few years than before. Speaking of which, it was after the Guo Luoluo family was convicted. In recent years, I have taken love with you.
The thirteenth elder brother also almost broke up with his maternal family because of his concubine's serious illness. Saying this, it really gives the prince an advantage and there are no longer any hindrances."
Shushu silently.
There are no more people charging forward.
The prince can no longer stay behind the scenes and must confront the emperor.
There is no one to mediate.
Looking at this trend, even if the prince wants to keep his head down, others may not be happy.
Prince, can you persist until forty-seven years?
The days passed by, and Shu Shu's pregnancy was now three months old. The fetus was stable and her body felt looser.
The Thirteenth Prince and his wife are going to entertain Prince Wengniute and invite the Ninth Prince and Shu Shu to accompany them.
The two families lived next to each other, so Shu Shu and Brother Jiu didn't waste any time and went over early to talk.
The thirteenth elder brother and his wife came out in person, and the sister-in-law accompanied them to the backyard. The ninth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother went to the front to talk.
"Looks like a little chicken with no meat. How are you doing? How strong are you?"
This is what Brother Ninth is most concerned about.
The Thirteenth Brother, an elder brother-in-law, is able to entertain guests. Does this mean he recognizes the character and behavior of the young prince?
Otherwise, the marriage is just a marriage, and it is not worthy of him being a favored prince who takes the initiative to show his kindness.
The Thirteenth Brother smiled and said: "He doesn't talk much, but he is a sensible child. He also started to draw a bow at the age of five. Now he can shoot the five-power bow with ease, and he can shoot twice with the seven-power bow..."
Brother Jiu said: "The body should be fine. It looks thin, probably because of the stripping."
The status of the county king represents the inheritance of tribal titles, which will put great pressure on the heirs in the future.
If the young prince's health is not good, then the princess will also be affected.
The Thirteenth Brother nodded and said: "Yeah, well, the Fourteenth Brother and I were like bamboo poles in the past two years, and it's only in the past few years that our bodies have become fleshy."
Brother Ninth said: "The thirteenth sister's brother-in-law has been decided. As for the fifteenth sister, has Khan Amma selected a candidate? Horqin has many Taiwanese Ji in Beijing..."
When the Thirteenth Brother heard about this, his face became a little ugly, and he said: "The candidate has not been decided yet, but Aunt Duanmin took the opportunity to ask for a princess for her son. She said that either the Thirteenth Sister or the Fifteenth Sister would be fine."
Brother Jiu rolled his eyes and said, "Bah! When the princess is like a cabbage, it's her turn to choose?"
At this point, he blinked and said: "It can't be the son who changed Taiji, right? Are you thinking about the princess, or are you thinking about the throne?"
The princess’s son is Taiji, and Taiji’s son is also Taiji.
The princess's husband is E's consort, and the son of E's consort and the princess is also Taiji.
That Jiu Mengzi lost his Taiji title and married a princess. Not only would his status be higher, it would also benefit his children and grandchildren.
The Thirteenth Brother also thought of this and felt sullen, saying: "If you really want to get close to the royal family and want to get closer, you should ask Chengjue's son for a marriage. How dare you use that thing to cling to the princess?"
Princess Duan Min’s husband is the Prince of Darhan. In the future, Princess Duan Min’s children and grandchildren will inherit the princely title and take charge of the government affairs of the Horqin Left Wing Middle Banner.
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "She is daydreaming. Khan Ama will not pay attention to her. Let alone the princess, she is the princess. I am afraid that the county princess will not be able to ask for her. What do you want to do with her?"
Even though Brother Ninth only interacted with Princess Duan Min once, it was enough.
He despised the palace concubine and had limited respect for the queen mother. He held his neck straight in front of the emperor and was extremely arrogant.
It’s just that what you sow reaps the fruit.
Princess Duan Min thought that she could dominate Horqin and not be subject to the imperial power, but she forgot that the laws of heaven were cyclical, and there would always be times when she turned to the capital...
