The old emperor wanted Bajiu to marry Lao Ba's only daughter, how could Yuzhu agree?
Oh, Yuzhu’s in-law is the fourth child, and his sister-in-law’s biological father is the eighth child. Is this a life-threatening situation?
The old emperor was just testing it. Seeing that Yuzhu refused to die, he had to give up.
According to the old emperor's hint, he actually wanted Sun Wufu to marry Lao Ba's only daughter.
After Yuzhu saw Sun Wufu, he immediately remembered this incident.
Well, it’s quite appropriate for a grandson to marry a granddaughter, so that the wealth and wealth will not fall into the hands of outsiders!
Anyway, the Qing Tatar regime did not pay attention to the so-called human ethics from top to bottom.
In the inner palace of the old emperor, it can be said that it is common for sisters, aunts and nephews, and even grandparents and grandchildren to serve the same husband.
Just as Yuzhu sat down to drink tea, he came from outside to report that the fifteenth and sixteenth masters had arrived with Fujin.
Seeing Yuzhu turning his head and looking over, Lao Ba quickly explained: "Brother, you must believe me. Brother Fifteen and Brother Sixteen, I really didn't invite them here."
Old Fifteen, Old Sixteen and Old Eighteen are brothers from the same mother.
Yuzhu knew well that Lao Shiba was a truly filial son and was willing to talk to his concubine about anything.
Obviously, it was the concubine who asked Old Fifteen and Old Sixteen to join in the fun.
"I trust you. It should be your concubine who asked your two brothers to come together to support her." Yuzhu smiled slightly and took the initiative to absolve Lao Shiba of his responsibility.
Lao Shiba breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Yuzhu thought he had hired an outsider.
To be fair, Lao Fifteen and Lao Sixteen are just the closest siblings of Lao Eighteen. Do they have anything to do with Yuzhu?
Besides, today is different from the past.
As time went by, the old emperor's favor was transferred to the younger prince.
To be honest, the old emperor's love for Lao Shiba is far less than it was back then.
Everyone knows that besides the seven-year-old Lao Twenty-san, who else is the current pet peeve of the old emperor?
Old Fifteen and Old Sixteen were both princes, so Yuzhu and Sun Chengyun accompanied Old Eighteen and welcomed him out of the gate.
"Please greet Brother Zhu."
As soon as they met, Lao Fifteen and Lao Sixteen went down together.
The two of them had neither title nor divine favor, so naturally they did not dare to lay out the prince's genealogy in front of Yuzhu.
As the saying goes, things are rare and valuable, but the old emperor's son was born one after another, and he couldn't love him at all.
How can the status of the older and unfavored princes in the eyes of the old emperor be comparable to that of his adopted son Yuzhu?
Yuzhu turned sideways to avoid the Qianli from the two brothers. While returning the gift, he said politely: "Fifteenth brother, sixteenth brother, you are too polite."
Old Fifteen had almost no contact with Yuzhu, so he simply remained silent and waited for Old Sixteen to speak.
When the old emperor visited the south, Lao Shiliu insisted on hanging out with Lao Shiba, and he and Yuzhu were old acquaintances.
"Eighteenth brother, my concubine scolded us both so much that it was your Fu Jin's birthday. How can it be justified if our two brothers don't bring your sister-in-law and nephews to congratulate you?" Old Sixteen opened his mouth.
, he brought out the secret concubine. Not only was Lao Shiba not angry, but he felt relaxed all over.
Previously, Lao Ba was worried that he could not explain why Lao Fifteen and Lao Sixteen came uninvited.
It's okay now, Lao Shiba didn't say a word, Lao Shiliu has explained everything clearly.
Everyone is a person on the scene. Who doesn't know Yuzhu's habit of never taking the initiative to make friends with princes and ministers?
The old emperor was also very clear about the fact that Lao Wu and Lao Qi intersected with the jade pillar before it became apparent.
Lao Shiba, the sister-in-law, and Lao Si, the in-law, were also forced upon Yuzhu by the old emperor.
The old emperor's purpose of doing this may not be clear to others, but Lao Shiba fully knew it.
Having Yuzhu be related to the minor princes greatly reduces the possibility of Yuzhu supporting the new emperor and massacring his brothers in the future.
The fifth, seventh and eighteenth princes are all recognized as princes who value friendship very much.
The fourth child has a withdrawn temperament and is not gregarious. As long as he keeps his tail between his legs, he can save his life.
What the old emperor has been struggling with is that if Hongxi comes to power, he will inevitably have the idea of killing Lao Ba, Lao Ninth, Lao Ten and Lao Fourteen.
With Yuzhu restraining him from the side, Hong Xi did not dare to move rashly.
On the contrary, if the Fourteenth Lao comes to power, he will inevitably kill Yuzhu.
With Lao Si as his biological brother, and the gentleness of Lao Wu and Lao Qi, Yuzhu at least had a chance to survive.
Alas, it is not easy for the old emperor!
To be honest, the old emperor's attitude toward Yuzhu included suspicion and wariness, but also love and trust. His feelings were very complicated.
However, the old emperor never expected that Yuzhu had deliberately tried to defraud him decades ago.
The fundamental problem is that the old emperor was able to ascend to the throne because his mother's family, the old Tong family, contributed a lot.
Since Yuzhu is a junior of the old emperor's mother's family, and over the years, Yuzhu has never been confused when it comes to taking sides on major issues. How can the old emperor not feel this?
After entering the West Flower Hall, Old Eighteen smiled and asked Old Fifteen to take a seat, "Brother Fifteen, you are my brother, please take a seat."
Old Shififu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Brother Zhu is here, how dare I sit around?"
Yuzhu nodded secretly. Lao Fifteen was raised by the deposed prince, so naturally he was on the wrong team.
The result of standing in the wrong team is that Old Thirteen becomes the most disliked Passerby A, and Old Fifteen becomes the equally forgotten Passerby B.
Seeing Lao Shiba looking towards him, Lao Shiliu quickly shook his head and said, "Brother Zhu is older and should take the seat."
No matter how favored the prince is, he is also the biological son of the old emperor.
The princes all politely offered to take their seats. If Yuzhu sat down, he had brain cancer and it was incurable!
Yuzhu jumped in front of Lao Baxiang and sat down at the bottom, refusing to move.
Lao Shiba had no choice but to invite his two brothers to sit with Yuzhu on the left and right sides.
The next one is by the door, closest to where the food is served.
Lao Shiba was not an idiot, so he immediately ordered his servants to remove the partition door of the west wing and serve the food from there.
Since it was a family banquet and everyone was blood relatives, Lao Shiba ordered the people to remove the screen that separated the men's and women's tables.
After the screen was removed, Yuzhu was making excuses to drink wine, and he accidentally saw Lao Shifeng's direct descendant Fujin.
Fifteenth Fujin, surnamed Suwanguarjia, was born in the Zhengbai Banner of the Han Army, and was the concubine of the deposed crown prince.
From the appearance point of view, Fifteenth Fujin is much more beautiful than the deposed Crown Princess.
Because of the supervision of Xian'an Palace, when Yuzhu met with Yinreng once a month, he could almost see the deposed crown princess.
As we all know, the deposed prince and the old fourteenth are sworn enemies. No matter who gains power, the other will die without a burial place.
What is more interesting is that the old emperor chose to marry the niece of the deposed crown princess to Hongchun, the eldest son of the fourteenth prince.
In the blink of an eye, Hongchun became the enemy of the emperor who deliberately teased his own father!
