Chapter 891: Mountains of gold and silver are no match for the filial piety of a son (wowling for monthly votes)
Among the sixteen birthday gifts, Kangxi pointed to Baiyu Shanzi and the water control map, and told Wei Zhu: "Keep the water control map, keep the Baiyushanzi, and put it back in the Qing Palace..."
Wei Zhu agreed and signaled the young eunuchs to carry other things down.
Except for the things you clicked, everything else must be filed together and put into the large warehouse of Qianqing Palace.
Later, when it was time to reward people, I selected them from the book, then turned them out and used them.
If you can't remember it, you'll just put it away forever and never see the light of day.
Next are the twelve items from the eldest brother. In addition to the furnishings and gold utensils, there are also two medicinal materials, a box of cordyceps and a box of 120-year-old Polygonum multiflorum.
Everyone looked at the eldest brother.
This is the first time that medicinal materials appear in the Wanshou Ceremony. Although they are good things, they are medicinal materials after all. Are they not afraid of violating taboos?
Sending medicinal materials doesn't sound good, as it seems to be a curse to make people sick.
Kangxi was also a little surprised and looked at his eldest brother.
The eldest brother looked at Kangxi and did not give any other explanation. He only said softly: "Khan Ama, my son has a weak relationship with his wife. He only hopes that his parents' relationship will last forever and he will be a blessed person..."
Kangxi's heart softened, and he shook his head and said: "It's Ergen who thinks Luo's fortune is poor. You don't have to belittle yourself. You'll still be blessed for the rest of your life. What's wrong with this..."
The prince was beside him, but he felt that the roots of his teeth were sore and itchy.
Who taught this?
Boss is shameless!
How old is he? I didn’t see him acting mean when he was a teenager. He is already in his thirties and he is still acting like a bitch. Isn’t it disgusting?!
Dafujin has been gone for a year and a half, why is it still selling here?
Is it true that you still hope that your parents’ fate will last forever?
Isn't he afraid that it will come true and die due to a short break?
The third elder brother looked puzzled.
The boss stole his words!
Kangxi looked at Wei Zhu, pointed to the two boxes of medicine and said: "Enter the pharmacy."
Wei Zhu also wrote it down.
Next came the gifts from the third elder brother, which were reduced to eight items.
Although it seems unremarkable, there is still an unbeatable "Book of Filial Piety".
Others were fine, but Brother Jiu was watching and felt that he was at a loss.
I didn’t notice it before, but it turns out that this is how other people’s goldware was given!
Even a pair of cups are the same!
What does a one-inch-square gold box mean?
According to this, his set of gold wine vessels used several kilograms of gold. Can it be split into three pieces?
Gold plate, gold pot, gold cup?
The third child is really picky. He just returned two sets of gold-plated ones. What happened to the two sets of silverware?
Everyone felt strange and looked over.
One is a silver candlestick with five seats. It looks very delicate and not shabby.
One is an engraved silver fruit plate, which looks very different from common silverware.
But for this birthday gift, it is not recommended to give silverware. Most of them are silver and gilt.
The third elder brother said: "Khan Ama, these are two sets of antique silverware that my son bought for exchange. They came from the palace in Europe and are not common outside."
Kangxi glanced at it for a few times, nodded and said, "Thank you for taking the trouble..."
Let's talk. He pointed to the silver fruit plate and told Wei Zhu: "Keep this one and file the others..."
This is an older brother, and he always has to retain some dignity.
Wei Zhu agreed.
Next is the fourth elder brother, also eight.
Kangxi also pointed out one of the crystal snuff bottles and kept it.
When I arrived at Fifth Brother's place, the gifts were a bit strange.
In addition to the four gold utensils, there are four other items, including a pot of Guanyin bamboo, a blue and white jar with a picture of a hundred children, a pomegranate gem bonsai and a plate of peach bonsai.
"Khan Ama, I don't know what the bamboo son next to me is like, but this one in my son's house is extremely effective..."
The fifth elder brother said with sincerity on his face.
His idea is relatively simple.
It’s so dazzling that my mother-in-law has three princes, and she also raises her seventeenth brother.
It would be best if there were other concubines in the harem, and the concubines also had an elder brother, Ge Ge, and so on.
Zhang Concubine is either with Wang Guiren, or with the concubine...
If it weren't for Concubine De's mother...
Kangxi looked at the fifth elder brother, dumbfounded, and said: "Last year you gave a circle of bamboo as a gift. You didn't show respect to the palace, just to see if it works or not?"
The fifth elder brother nodded and said: "Yes, it has worked now. Khan Ama, there is something happening with my son Fujin, and the fourth brother's house is also..."
Having said this, he looked at Brother Si and said, "Isn't that right? Brother Four?"
The fourth elder brother looked at the fifth elder brother and was speechless. Is this something convenient for father and son to say?
Are these items used for childbirth suitable as birthday gifts?
Why is the fifth elder brother even more stupid?
Kangxi laughed loudly, nodded and said: "Okay, okay, I have received this filial piety!"
Then, he pointed to those four items and told Wei Zhu, "Keep all four of them!"
The seventh elder brother followed behind, feeling his scalp numb.
Are there so many tricks for Longevity Festival this year?
Isn’t it a casual birthday this year?
Can't it be the same as in previous years?
Kangxi listened to the seventh elder brother's gift list, looked around at the birthday gifts, pointed to a gold sandalwood pen holder and kept it.
The only one left is the eighth prince.
The eighth prince's gift list was originally drawn up based on last year's gift list, but after being demoted, he took out two items and only six items were left.
When the gift list was read out, the fourth elder brother frowned.
The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother looked at each other.
Forgot about this one.
They previously thought of comparing it to their elder brothers, and then reducing the gold items.
In the end, there were six different ones!
However, the gift note has been handed in, and it is too late to change it now.
It's not like there's a big court at the moment, it's just my own family, so it doesn't matter.
Kangxi glanced at the eighth prince twice, and finally pointed out the purple and gold Xuande furnace among the six rituals.
The next one is Brother Ninth.
Brother Jiu couldn't help but burst into tears and came out with pride.
Just by looking at his expression, everyone knew there was something good and everyone was looking forward to it.
Only the fourth elder brother knew the inside story and looked at the floor tiles with a bit of embarrassment.
Wei Zhu had already taken the gift list and said: "A handle of agarwood as you wish, a set of gold wine bottles, a jasper pen holder, an inkstone, a plate of coral beads, a plate of small beads, ten pieces of colored satin, four saddle horses..."
This gift also contains something strange, it actually contains a living creature.
Kangxi looked at his ninth elder brother.
The ninth elder brother came out and said: "My son is weak and is afraid of cold and heat. He can't ride a horse. It would be a pity to keep the good horse. I will give him filial piety to the Khan's Ama, and the Khan's Ama will reward people..."
Kangxi was very satisfied with Brother Jiu's performance and did not compete with his brothers in terms of gifts. He only prepared one set of goldware.
Although it was a little selfish to give the horse away, I still couldn't bear the hardship, but I still explained the matter of riding in the car.
Just when he was about to give a compliment, Brother Jiu had already taken two steps forward and called the little eunuch who was carrying the ceremony to come forward. He carefully held the agarwood Ruyi and said in a tone of offering a treasure: "Khan Ama, look at this.
, even if my brother next to me gave him mountains of gold and silver, it still can’t compare to my son’s affection!”
Seeing Brother Ninth's tail raised, Kangxi swallowed his words of praise again and looked at what Brother Ninth was holding.
The thin version of Ruyi has no style. The Ruyi head does not even have the simplest auspicious cloud pattern, it is just a perfect circle.
Brother Jiu presented it with both hands and said: "This is Ruyi carved by my son himself. It is either for decoration or for Khan Amma's daily use..."
"bring here……"
Kangxi said.
Brother Jiu took a few steps forward and raised his hands.
Kangxi took it and pressed it carefully. It was a submerged grade agarwood seed, which had a faint fragrance and a refreshing smell.
Although the style is a bit simple, it feels smooth to the touch, which shows that a lot of care has been put into it.
Just as he was about to praise him, he saw Brother Jiu shrinking back and looking a little embarrassed.
"Reach out..."
Kangxi said.
Brother Jiu sneered and said: "It's okay, everything is fine..."
Under Kangxi's gaze, he still stretched out his hand honestly.
The scar on the top has indeed healed a lot, but there are still traces of broken blisters on the right palm.
Kangxi took the agarwood Ruyi and wanted to smoke someone!
This is agarwood!
Not sandalwood, nanmu!
Even if you carve an agarwood object, you'll get a hand injury, this bastard!
Thinking again about Brother Ninth's copybook, he looked at Brother Ninth and said with dissatisfaction: "You only learn half of everything, and you fool yourself. When the time comes to use it, you will suffer, right?"
Brother Jiu's face fell, and he said: "Khan Ama, today is a good day, I don't want to scold my son! This is my son's filial piety, just accept it. If you scold me for being filial, and then you don't show your filial piety, what's wrong with you?"
Don’t rely on your son!”
Kangxi held Ruyi and brought good luck.
Goddess behind your back!
Goddess behind your back!
The eldest elder brother and the fourth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother and felt that he deserved a beating.
Is this how filial piety is fulfilled?
Come with angry people?
Loves to talk back!
The prince looked reserved and looked at Brother Ninth, but he felt relieved.
It doesn't matter whether it's the seven emotions or whether you feel happy or angry as you please.
Anyone who is ambitious will not be so willful.
Khan Amma should also be able to see this. He is a person with little potential, so he should be pampered twice as much.
In fact, the princes in the palace were divided into different levels many years ago.
Starting from the ninth elder brother, they all belong to the younger elder brother.
It's just that Brother Jiu has been jumping up and down in the past two years, which makes people forget this.
The gifts from the eleventh elder brother are also eight kinds, all of which are Western objects.
"It's a good thing from my son Fujin's shop. My son picked it up and kept it..."
The tenth elder brother said.
Everyone knows that Shi Fujin opened a foreign goods shop in the capital, and the goods supplied by the Jiangnan Ji family were all good items from Hangzhou Customs.
But shouldn’t that be regarded as Shifujin’s private property?
Why does this weakling like Lao Shi eat so confidently?
Kangxi couldn't help but glare at Brother Jiu.
This is "the one who is close to the ink is black"...
Abahaitaiji has returned to Mongolia, and it is estimated that the reputation of the tenth prince as a "soft ricer" will also spread to various Mongolian tribes...
The eighth prince stood in the queue, his face turned white.
He was very upset as to why he had lost two things.
No one seems to care that the number of gifts he has here is not quite right.
But who knows what everyone is thinking...
Do people think that he should be lowered compared to his brothers?
Did the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother do this on purpose?
Although they are bald princes, they are not young princes, so they also prepare birthday gifts according to the eight items.
The prince's palace of the ninth prince is regulated by the Baylor Mansion, and the prince's palace of the tenth prince is regulated by the county prince's palace, but his own Baylor Mansion is to be demolished...
The eighth prince looked at the gold bricks on the ground and wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl into them.
Next it's the twelfth brother's turn.
Four kinds of gifts, jade vase, jade cup, paperweight and pen wash.
Kangxi glanced at it but said nothing.
Although the twelfth elder brother has grown up, in Kangxi's eyes, he is still a young elder brother, and giving birthday gifts is just a matter of time.
The thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother are also the same.
Fourteenth, here is an antique dagger from the Yuan Dynasty, which was carefully purchased from outside.
At the Thirteenth Brother's place, there is a tortoiseshell thumb ring, which looks simple and grand.
Kangxi pointed out these two things to keep.
When the fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother arrive, they will each have two.
The fifteenth elder brother’s gift is a pair of agate cups and an enamel stove; the sixteenth elder brother’s gift is a gold tea bucket and a string of small sandalwood rosary beads.
At first glance, it seemed that the two elders had prepared it.
Kangxi left the enamel stove and small rosary beads...
