From that day on, Fourth Master became busy in a low-key manner. He often took Honghui and Hongyun to listen in the study.
Lin Yutong didn't know if this education model was right. She always felt that children shouldn't be told about these conspiracies.
The fourth master smiled and said: "What are you doing as a master? Are you plotting evil?"
Lin Yutong said in his heart, it's not good. It's better to control it a little. Don't let your sons learn your methods and deal with you in the future.
The expression on her face was so obvious that it was difficult for Fourth Master not to see it.
He tapped Lin Yutong's nose, "Don't worry, I can still hold my own son."
Lin Yutong rolled his eyes. The emperor probably thought the same thing. He felt that he still couldn't control his son. What happened? Someone was restless and was about to cause trouble.
The fourth master whispered: "The emperor ascended the throne at the age of eight and took charge of the government at the age of fourteen. In the early years, when there were three rebellions, how many times did the eunuchs in the palace cause trouble? What has the emperor not seen? The ones in their hands
Are you looking for someone to jump around? That's too simple. In the final analysis, it's just like gambling. Anyone who dares to gamble with his life will lose even his pants. If you have nothing, just gamble once
, use a small amount to make a big gain. This is the mentality of a gambler."
Lin Yutong nodded. These words really reflected what Master Ba was thinking. "But who can he use? The Nian family? No way. The Nian family has a family and a business. At most, one daughter should be given up. There is no reason to take the lives of the entire family.
To gamble with a slim chance of winning."
The fourth master shook his head, "Then you underestimate Lao Ba. He will gamble with other people's lives, but he will not gamble with his own life. And in this world, there are always some fools who are willing to make wedding dresses for others."
A name flashed in Lin Yutong's mind, "I'm talking about... Longkodo?"
The fourth master smiled and said, "Longkodo was born in the Tong family. The Tong family, starting from Tong Tulai, started with military merit. Since entering the customs, they have led troops to fight in many places. Therefore, the Tong family has a strong reputation in the army.
Basic. In addition, Tong Guogang died in battle, and Tong Guowei also went on three expeditions with the emperor. These relationships in the military have never been broken. And over the years, the Tong family has become the most prosperous Tong Banchao, and the people below have not.
Would be foolish to give up such a good supporter. Therefore, the bond between the Tong family and the military should be very stable after two or three generations of maintenance. This also gives Longkodo more resources to use. If we say, Tong
The family's resources will not be tilted to Long Keduo. If you really think so, you are wrong. The root is still in Long Keduo. This person is very talented. The relationship with the emperor is also the same as that of the other members of the Tong family and the emperor.
The feelings are different. He is the emperor's cousin. When he was young, he was the guard beside the emperor. Perhaps, he was not a guard at first, but someone who accompanied the emperor to play with Buku. Until the emperor captured Obai and Long Ke
Ducai officially came into everyone's sight. Although the emperor didn't say anything, judging from the emperor's trust in Longkodo, even the nine admirals dared to give it to him. It can be guessed that at that time, when he was capturing Obai, he should
He has made great achievements. By now, he is the first-class bodyguard beside the emperor. At that time, he was only a teenager, about the same size as our Honghui and Hongyun. It is said that childhood feelings are the strongest, and the emperor's love for Long
The same is true for Kodo's trust. To this day, he still wears the title of first-class guard. What is the concept of being a first-class guard for decades? This proves that there are no guards around the emperor that he is not familiar with. And based on age,
The guards of the same period as Longkodo are now afraid that their positions in the guard camp and the imperial army are not low. In addition, he has been the commander-in-chief, the infantry commander, and the nine-door admiral. Combined with these yamen officials
It is possible to control the situation if the relationship is connected. On the other hand, let’s talk about Longkodo’s temperament. When he was a teenager, he dared to follow the emperor to capture Obei. He was obviously a descendant of the Tong family and had no problems with his future, but he still dared to do so.
He risked his life for what, didn't he dare to place a bet? In the end, he won. He was called uncle by the prince for decades. Even though he was scolded by the emperor and fell into a trough, who dared to underestimate him? In addition, this time
What he committed was just indulging his concubines, doting on them and destroying their wives. In the eyes of many people, this is not a big deal. I’m afraid there are still some people who were deceived by him.”
Lin Yutong said clearly: "I mean, from a character point of view, he dares to take risks and bets. From a motivation point of view, he has entered a low point in his life, and he may still have some injustice in his heart. This is the reason why he takes risks.
.In terms of conditions, it is considered complete. In terms of ability, this person has the ability to connect up and down."
The Fourth Master nodded, "But Lao Ba wants to command Long Keduo, but he really can't do it. Just like Long Keduo wants to control Lao Ba, but can't do it."
"Aren't Longkodo afraid that Master Ba will cross the river and burn the bridge?" Lin Yutong felt that Master Ba must be such a person.
The Fourth Master rubbed Lin Yutong's head, "This is really stupid. It's not that the Eighth Master can't tolerate it, it's that no one can tolerate it. But I can't stand these two extremely confident people."
Lin Yutong's understanding is that we should first join forces to gain the upper hand, and then separate ourselves?
"So, don't worry. I can think of all this, not to mention the emperor who knows more about Longkodo. Over the years, the emperor has used Longkodo while suppressing Longkodo. Maybe he feels that this person's temper is too
It's wild and hard to tame." The fourth master said, and sighed, "The emperor is still very affectionate." He was thinking about the love between life and death when he was young.
Lin Yutong felt relieved. Now that he was on guard, he really didn't have to worry too much.
Fourth Master was busy with his work. Lin Yutong also started to be busy.
Because the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
Snowskin mooncakes have become the exclusive property of the fourth master's house. This year, Concubine De specially sent a message, asking her to prepare more and go in. She will reward them. This reward should be given to the concubines in the palace.
In today's harem, no matter how low-key Concubine De is, she cannot conceal her unique weight in the harem.
Concubine Tong will not stand up to concubines who have sons. Concubine Hui, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Yi have all retreated. There used to be good concubines, but now, the good concubines also stay in the palace, saying they are recovering from illness.
In fact, wherever there is real illness, it is caused by mental illness.
In the past, Ba Fujin often came to the palace to have a look, but now he usually does not enter the palace except on days when he pays respects. Later, there were faint rumors that Concubine Liang liked Nian more, and Concubine Liang did not go out anymore.
I asked Concubine De to say that this was all done. They should handle the affairs of their son and daughter-in-law by themselves. Which of these princes would wrong her? In the past few years, she had also done it to the fourth child. That was indeed the case.
There was a problem between the couple. In addition, others had already prepared someone for their son at that time, so he had to prepare for it. If he really acted independently, that would be really bad. If others thought about it, he would probably be saying that he was unhappy with his elders.
The fourth son was indifferent, or the fourth son wanted to appear lascivious. In the situation at that time, I really didn’t dare to spread such words and push their mother and son to the forefront. Although she had cheated on others, at least she had never treated her as a man.
A girl with a rich surname was given to the fourth child. Why, wasn't it because Honghui was there in Ulanala, and he was afraid of disturbing the back house? The Niu Gulu family in the mansion was designated by the emperor. It was just a fourth-grade ceremony.
The girls in the family, including the Fourteenth, the Shu Shujueluo family and the Irgenjueluo family in the mansion, were all appointed by the emperor. The wives she gave were all Han. Later, the Fourteenth also gave birth to the eldest son of a concubine.
, she was a little more tolerant towards the Wanyan family for this reason. She also often heard rumors that the two couples kept arguing in the house from time to time, but she just pretended not to hear it. She was not deaf or dumb, nor
She reminded herself that she had to remember this sentence. It was Lao Shi4 who caused this recent incident. Wanyan was also responsible, but Hongchun was more responsible. Didn't she say nothing?
It is his son who is causing trouble for his wife, and if he continues to get involved, there is really no way he can survive this day.
Aunt Ping came in and said with a smile: "The word came from Sifujin that this year we not only made meat fillings, duck eggs, quail eggs, but also various kinds of dried fruits, fruits, and flowers. I'm sure other people don't have them."
"
Concubine De smiled appreciatively, "It's also her ingenuity. Other people's mooncakes are half the size of a palm, and you'll be full once you eat them. She's good, she makes them all small and delicate, and you can eat them in three or two bites, and you can taste all kinds of flavors."
Taste it. Everyone in the palace really likes it." He said and smiled bitterly, "When this is elegant, it is really elegant. But when it is so rough, there is nothing to say. Tell me about the flowers sent yesterday.
Raw and tender soybeans are put in baskets made of wattle sticks, and there are big baskets of each kind. Who in the palace ate these in the past years? Many people secretly laughed at them."
This is not a complaint. It is clearly showing off that his son-in-law thinks of her. So he joked: "Where is the joke? I don't know how to be envious? You only said that the thing looks vulgar, but to be honest, is it delicious?
tasty?"
"It's a bit wild." Concubine De said with a smile on her lips, reservedly.
"Why are the delicacies from the mountains and seas rare to my mother? But this wild taste has not been seen for many years. What's more, the fourth master and several younger brothers planted it with their own hands, and Si Fujin and Da Gege picked it with their own hands.
I washed it myself. It’s a rare gift.” Aunt Ping smiled and said, “I heard that Concubine Yi returned a box of pearls that Master Jiu brought in yesterday.”
Concubine De smiled. They were in the palace, and the emperor was in the garden. They couldn't see each other twice a year, so who could show them the jewelry. Even the grandson has reached the age of marrying a wife. Don't act like a monster and let the juniors watch the joke.
The pearls sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in previous years can no longer be used. They are old and no longer bright. Her pearls from the past years were ground into powder and given to the concubines. She really does not have such an eager possessive desire for this thing.
Already.
Ting Ping continued: "Guess what, Master Jiu sent two more boxes this morning. One box contains peanuts beaten with gold, and the other box contains soybeans beaten with gold."
Concubine De burst out laughing. Concubine Yi probably wanted to slap Lao Jiu to death.
