The third elder brother looked at Qi Xi several times.
I saw that his expression looked familiar, and he looked very upright and awe-inspiring.
The third elder brother said "poof" in his heart, looking at the kindhearted person, he didn't expect that this person was also unkind.
No wonder he started to work hard even without any military merit. In recent years, he even supported his father-in-law and secured the red flag in Manchuria.
Villains will be repaid for their anger.
Not generous enough.
The third elder brother re-characterized Qi Xi, but shrank back and said: "Master Qi has such a public heart, it is really admirable!"
Qi Xi stopped talking, the corners of his mouth and eyes drooped, looking sad again.
Third Brother: "..."
Sanfujin is a dear girl and wants to stay here all night.
The third elder brother received another oral instruction, and he wanted to attend the funeral here, and it was not possible to leave.
The couple stayed in the palace.
Sanfujin felt guilty at first and cried hard.
I am sad to lose Ama, but I am also worried that Ama's death is related to the third elder brother. If my parents' family and Baylor Mansion fall out, I will be in a difficult situation in the future.

Later, when the third brother came back to attend the funeral, she cried several times until she was dizzy.
However, she still noticed the changes in the women's emotions.
Neither the wife nor the sisters-in-law were as resentful as before, but returned to their original polite appearance.
When Sanfujin found out that the third elder brother had been ordered to provide funeral services to Amma, he felt at ease.
If you put in more effort at this time, even if you can't smooth over the previous issues, the brothers won't have to worry too much.
In the mourning hall, the coffin bed was empty, and Peng Chun had not yet laid his body in clothes.
Seeing that the funeral order was restored, Peng Chun also wanted to be buried.
This requires children to take action.
And all the children and grandchildren must be present.
As a result, there was a commotion in Peng Chun's dormitory.
According to current customs, when the burial is carried out, the eldest son should hold the head, the second son should hold the waist, and the third son should hold the legs, and then clean and change the clothes.
Not only was Zengshou not happy about the Fuhan brothers taking action, but the younger ones below were also not happy about it.
Zengshou said with a cold face: "You stay away from Ama, don't let Ama leave and make you uneasy!"
Fu Han knelt down and howled: "Amma, as soon as you leave, there will be people who are intolerant of others. Elder brothers are unfriendly and cannot tolerate their sons!"
You must know that during burial, tears of relatives are taboo, as it will make the deceased feel uneasy when they leave.
Zengshou had been holding back his anger for a long time, and because he was disturbed by the crying, he kicked Fuhan hard.
Fuhai protected his brother, but stopped and knocked Zengshou down directly.
Before the brothers below took action, the two outer chamberlains did.
They will still depend on the government in the future, but they have already secretly taken refuge with their eldest brother.
What a fun time.
Everyone else looked at Qi Xi.
This is the elder of the immediate family.
This is the time to speak, right?
This mess is so unlikeable.
Qi Xi, on the other hand, felt as if he was mourning his heir, lost his soul, and seemed to be unaware of the outside world.
There is no other way, so everyone can only ask the third elder brother to come forward and intimidate them.
The third elder brother was so angry that he scolded his brothers-in-law before letting Yi Ming continue...
The next day, the in-laws from the clan also came to visit the funeral one after another.
Here, Shu Shu is waiting for any movement from Brother Jiu.
Brother Ninth also has some numb claws.
There is no precedent to follow.
Should I go during the "pick-up" time, the "first seven" time, or the funeral time?
You can't be rude, this is related to your Fujin's face.
Brother Jiu wanted to send He Yuzhu to Dutong Mansion to ask his father-in-law and mother-in-law for advice. Then he thought of the old Ama in Qianqing Palace, so he changed his mind. After handling official business for an hour, he went to Qianqing Palace.
"Khan Ama, if this is an innocent matter in the clan family, there are still precedents, but in-laws and sons don't know what to do? If we follow the example of the eldest brother's father-in-law, we can just send someone to deliver a memorial ceremony, but This is my son Fujin's family, but that is too simple, what should my son do?"
Brother Jiu explained his difficulties and asked for instructions respectfully.
One sentence stopped Kangxi from questioning him.
He is the emperor, and this knowledge of favors and etiquette is also unfamiliar to him.
He treats his in-laws and clan relatives with all kinds of rewards.
But he didn't show it on his face, he just said: "When Keer Kun passed away, what did you ask people to give you?"
Brother Jiu thought for a while and said with a little heartache: "It's a hundred and twenty taels of silver."
His monthly payment has been deducted, and without deduction it would only be fifty taels a month.
One hundred and twenty taels of silver is really a lot of money.
The key is that he has so many brothers, and his father-in-law will inevitably die in the future, so this money is inevitable.
Kangxi also felt that the money was quite a lot and said: "Whose example is this?"
Brother Jiu said: "My son is asking about the fourth brother. It seems that the fourth brother follows the example of the emperor's uncles."
Kangxi was satisfied and said: "You are the last one, so you should follow the rules. This time, just follow your brothers' actions."
The ninth elder brother blinked and wanted to remind him that although it was the third elder brother's in-law family, it was still the Dong E family, and he was also his cousin in Fujin.
Even if there is an example of the eldest brother’s father-in-law, should we add a memorial ceremony to the exception?
However, he was obedient and nodded: "Well, my son understands. My son sent someone to ask what the fourth and fifth brothers are doing..."
After returning from the Qianqing Palace, the ninth elder brother sent He Yuzhu out of the palace to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to find the fourth elder brother, and then to the Lifan Courtyard to find the fifth elder brother.
He himself still returned to the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
It seemed that the emperor's father wanted to treat the two Dong E families separately.
Doesn't count as being in one place.
If you want to separate, just separate, so as not to get involved with that loser Lao San.
Brother Ninth felt strange.
After weakening the clan, the imperial father also split up the aristocratic families.
The imperial power was indeed stable.
But the life of princes and nobles has lost its ease.
Otherwise, it would be leisurely for everyone to guard their own territory.
Before waiting for He Yuzhu, he waited for Gao Bin first.
"Didn't you go to Beiguanfang again today? Why are you back?"
Brother Ninth said.
Yesterday Gao Bin went to the Beiguan Office and came back with the drawings of the new mansion.
Brother Jiu and Shu Shu wanted to go together and build an independent guest house in the garden.
At that time, if he has an errand and leaves the capital, he can pick up Mrs. Bo or Mrs. Jueluo to accompany him, so that he can feel more at ease.
"Master Jiu, Uncle Fu is here. I have something to ask Master Jiu..."
Gao Bin bowed and replied.
"Little Fusong..."
Brother Jiu was confused, so he came out from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and went to Xihua Gate.
Fu Song was waiting outside Xihua Gate.
When he saw the ninth elder brother, Fusong stepped forward and whispered: "Amma asked me to send a message to the ninth master, saying that he wanted the ninth master to pay his respects to the elder brothers of other princes."
Brother Jiu didn't ask why.
He remembered his wife's words. It seemed that his father-in-law had also figured out the emperor's pulse.
He only scolded Fu Song: "What do you call 'Master Jiu'? You call me brother-in-law!"
Fusong grinned and said, "The etiquette cannot be abolished!"
Brother Jiu said: "Listen to me, asking you to come over to serve as an errand is not a matter of etiquette, but a matter of human relations..."
Fusong smiled and changed his words: "Brother-in-law..."
Only then was Brother Ninth satisfied, and said: "You can also help me tell my father-in-law that I will be careful and will not be self-absorbed. If I don't understand something, I will ask Khan Ama and my brothers for instructions."
Fusong wrote down these words.
Brother Jiu thought for a while and didn't mention the boy card.
The emperor's father was not happy for him to intervene, and he certainly would not be happy for the Dong E family to ask about this matter again.
He asked: "Are you going to delay your engagement again?"
Fusong said with a bit of shyness as a young man: "Eni originally planned to hold the ceremony in mid-June, but now it should be postponed to July."
This will have to wait until the 100th day for the service.
Counting from the death of Xinda Li.
Brother Jiu nodded and wrote this down.
There is a piece of land behind the Prince's Mansion, which is also allocated to him and the tenth prince.
Construction is currently under way there, and they are all terraced houses with two entrances, intended to accommodate the staff of the Prince's Mansion.
At that time, a yard can be arranged for Fusong.
It's just that Fusong's identity is here, and he will not always be attached to the prince's palace. When he gets older and has more seniority, he still has to fill the gap, which is the right way.
When they returned to the second residence in the evening, Brother Jiu mentioned the matter to Shu Shu and said, "For Fusong's wedding, why don't we give him a courtyard and have people walk around and touch him?"
Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid it won't be easy. The merits of setting up a yellow flag are much higher, not to mention the land and gold, and there isn't much empty space. It doesn't have to be a border with a yellow flag, it can also be bordered with a blue flag."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "That's fine. Let him live in the back when the time comes. The rent collection in the yard over there will also be a benefit."
Shu Shu remembered Xiao Chun's previous advice and said: "It doesn't need to be too big, just Xiao Er can come in, A Ma and E Ni will also prepare it."
As for her sister, she still doesn't treat her brothers favorably, and she tries her best to keep a bowl of water even.
This will avoid arousing resentment to Fusong, and will also cause difficulties for Amma and Eni.
Before, Fusong was her cousin, and she could still use Fusong's loneliness as an excuse to favor him. Now that she has officially changed her mind and become the adopted son of the Dutong Mansion, she, as a sister, still needs to be more fair.
No matter how close or distant you are, you don’t need to be in front of each other.
Brother Jiu said: "Even with Fusong, there are seven sons. The father-in-law and mother-in-law will have to worry about it in the future. They must be taught well and don't make a joke like the one in Peng Chun's house."
Shu Shu heard this and said, "What's wrong?"
Brother Jiu was also speechless and said: "I heard that there was a fight in Yi Ming last night. It seems that the brothers at the back said that Fu Han and Fu Hai falsely accused their cousins and elders and wanted to rebel. They became a person who was sentenced to death and were unworthy of being a descendant of Dong E's family.
, we need to divide them into households..."
After hearing this, Shu Shu also felt embarrassed and said: "This is the funeral ceremony, isn't it far from separating the family?"
Brother Jiu sneered and said, "Why else? I'm afraid that if I keep my filial piety, I won't be able to expel people!"
Shu Shu frowned and said, "Although these two brothers are ridiculous, they still have my uncle's family here!"
It's just that my uncle is gone, my cousin has dismissed Beizi, and now the head of the family is the nephew of the Duke of Fuguo.
That was the Zhenghongqi clan, a descendant of Prince Lilie, a branch of Prince Kang's family, and they also had a say in Zhenghongqi.
Brother Jiu rolled his eyes and said: "We are just two snobs. Instead of asking for help from Duke Fu's Mansion, we sent people to Prince Kang's Mansion to ask Chun Tai to make the decision..."
Shu Shu was also speechless.
What is this operation?
Chun Tai is his cousin. After the two brothers framed Qi Xi, do they still have the nerve to go to Prince Kang's Mansion for help?
