Rong Ruo came home and had just greeted her mother. Before the chair was warm, Mingzhu took her to the study and asked her carefully how the eldest brother and the prince were doing today.
"Yes. The emperor asked him again, do you know what the first priority is after the dynasty is established? My brother said, it is to attract people's hearts." Cheng De said: "The emperor told my brother about the beginning of the dynasty's establishment. The killings were too heavy, and after the three feudal lords were pacified, the emperor wanted to tour the south."
Mingzhu sat on the chair and pondered for a long time, and finally said with a smile: "He is really the blood of our Nalan family. My nephew is like my uncle, and my elder brother is as smart as me!"
Rong Ruo's face was numb. Is it interesting to praise herself? Is it interesting?
However, "Amma, will the emperor really go to Jiangnan? If he goes, will it be useful?" Rong Ruo felt that with such a blood feud, even if the emperor went, it would not help.
Mingzhu looked at her beloved son lovingly and helplessly: "Brothers Xu Qianxue and Xu Yuanwen are about to return to Beijing. Do you still remember why I asked you to worship Qianxue as your teacher?"
"The teacher is very knowledgeable."
"...Then where does his knowledge come from?" Mingzhu persuaded her son bit by bit: "It doesn't fall from the sky."
"Yes, Mr. Tinglin is from Gu Yanwu's lineage, and the teacher is his nephew."
Mingzhu smiled: "That's right. Naturally, the Gu family can be a remnant, and they don't have to serve as officials, because it's the same for the in-laws' children with other surnames to join the officials in our court. Qianxue wrote to me, saying that he would take Wan Sitong with him We went to Beijing together, do you know who Wan Sitong is?"
"He is a student of Mr. Lizhou Huang Zongxi..."
Mingzhu sighed: "That's right. Huang Lizhou's external tone has changed a lot in recent years, and it's almost flattering." Seeing his son's disapproving look, he smiled and said: "The children of his Huang family, his disciples must To serve as an official. So, who do you think the emperor is going to Jiangnan for? The common people. Or should he tell the remnants and celebrities, and keep it tacit to each other?"
Rongruo's face looked very ugly, and Mingzhu sighed: "Son, Ama will also grow old, so you have to take over slowly. Our family has been married to Aixinjueluo for three generations, and now we have an eldest brother. You have to handle it well. The errand assigned to you by the emperor is to interact more with those remnants and win them over. By then your future achievements will surpass those of your father."
"..." Rong Ruo was silent for a long time before saying: "My son is not interacting with them because he wants to repay the gods. I just admire their character and knowledge. If he is a spy, my son is not the material! And the eldest brother, My aunt only has this son, why bother dragging him into the water?"
His question was heartbreaking, but Mingzhu couldn't understand it: "How can this be called dragging down the water? No, son, the eldest brother is your cousin and my nephew. Your Ama is not a fool. How can you let me go now? What's wrong with him! Of course, we have to take our time. If we succeed, it's a win-win situation."
"Chengde, listen to Ama's words, you can't be blameless in life." Mingzhu sighed, and he suddenly reflected whether he raised his son too cleanly.
Rongruo lowered his head: "It was my son who made a mistake just now. Amma atones for his sin."
Mingzhu waved her hand: "Nothing, just go down and think about it." It doesn't matter, my son is still young, just teach him slowly.
Seeing that her son was about to leave, Mingzhu suddenly said: "By the way, your mother-in-law and I have already chosen a wife for you. She is Guarjia's daughter, the first-class Duke Pu Erpu."
Rongruo raised his head suddenly, paused for a moment, and then said: "Amma, I hope Amma will work hard for what Mr. Gu is asking for."
Soon after, everyone in the palace heard the news. This news was not told by anyone else, but by Queen Niu Hulu.
"Does Yin know that guard Nalan is getting married?"
When greeting him as usual, Yin A was stunned by the queen's question. He shook his head subconsciously, and the queen said: "I heard that the Taifu and the Minister of Internal Affairs Pu Erpu asked the emperor to marry him a few days ago. This is a good match. The emperor said
We should reward the newlyweds well, even the Empress Dowager said they are a match made in heaven."
"What the Queen Mother said is..."
Yin'a didn't know whether he should be happy or not. Although the contact was brief, Yin'a's impression and actual contact showed that his cousin was a person that ordinary women couldn't stand or understand.
Back at the head office, Yin A quickly inquired about the bachelor Alam, and then he found out that Pu Erpu, the first-class public servant, was serving as the minister in charge of the bodyguard. And this girl from the Guarjia family was Su Wanguarjia, the founder of the country.
The great-granddaughter of the Fifth Minister Fei Yingdong.
"Brother asked this, have you heard about the marriage between Master Chengde and the daughter of the Guarjia family?"
"You also know about this?" Yin A smiled and said: "It seems that the whole palace knows about it, but I don't know about it."
Aramu laughed: "Brother is young after all, so this kind of thing is natural... But, Lord Puerpu fell in love with Chengde and told the Taifu personally about this marriage."
"But she is the daughter of a first-class lord after all. Wouldn't it be aggrieved to have a second marriage?" Yin A just didn't want to understand this.
Aramu was stunned: "Brother, why do you think so? Not to mention the bannermen, there are few Han people who are not willing to wait for the successor. Like Li Dongyang in the previous dynasty, the third successor is still the daughter of Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi. Besides,
Because of the incident in San Francisco, there has been no talent show in the past few years. When a college girl gets married, her family naturally has to worry about it."
Oh, when you say this, Yin A understands. Anyway, the man's future is the most important thing. As a responsible father, it is very reasonable and reasonable for his daughter to choose a son-in-law like his cousin.
When Yin'a took advantage of his free time in the afternoon to find Rongruo, he was busy writing in the guard's room. Yin'a slipped over and took a look, and saw that it was the crown prince's move to the palace.
The Yuqing Palace built by Kangxi for Yinyin has been completed. Next month, the prince will move out of Qianqing Palace and live in Yuqing Palace by himself.
"You're catching a knife for your uncle!" Anyway, there were only two of them, and they were all guarding the door with Qin Jile. Yin A complained mercilessly.
Rong Ruo was not in the mood to joke today, and just wrote quickly: "Ama is busy, so I'll do it for you. Speaking of which, the prince is moving to the palace, and you have to follow him to salute him."
"He is the prince. Now he still gives lectures every day in person, and he has to run from Yuqing Palace to Qianqing Palace and back again every day. It's such a hassle."
Yin A smiled, jumped on the chair and stood opposite Rong Ruo, guessing her cousin's face: "I heard you are getting married, I don't see you happy."
"...What's there to be happy about?" Rongruo's tone became calmer. He put down his pen and looked at Yin A: "This is a daughter-in-law for my mother, not me."
It’s over, I’m afraid my cousin’s life will not be easy in the future. Yin A shook her legs: “Hey, I haven’t seen my cousins yet!”
"When you leave the palace and build a mansion in the future, I, your uncle, will only let you take care of the children at home."
Yin'a had nothing to say. He didn't leave the guard room until the eunuch came to report that the emperor had summoned him and asked his eldest brother to hurry over. As soon as Yin'a left, Rong Ruo also felt relieved. After talking to his father yesterday, Rong Ruo I felt a little afraid to see my cousin, as if I had tricked him.
In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor was telling Yinyin: "Didn't Amma take you to see the Yuqing Palace? Don't be afraid of moving to the palace..." Balabala said for a while.
But the little prince only had one thought: "Amma, my son can't live with Amma in the future. Can't he come to Qianqing Palace in the future?"
"Of course Baocheng can come here, but since Baocheng has grown up, he naturally has to live in the East Palace to be worthy of his status as a prince. You see, your brother lives in the first palace by himself."
Kangxi said to Yinyin gently: "Yuqing Palace is still next to Fengxian Palace, and your ancestors will also bless you." Your mother-in-law will also bless you to grow up safely.
When Yin'a arrived at Qianqing Palace, he happened to catch up with the Minister of Rites delivering a memorial. He asked where to celebrate the crown prince's move to the palace. Where should the eldest brother stand?
The emperor had rearranged the order of the princes before. Since Yin A is the eldest son of the emperor, no matter what the future holds, he will be the leader of Emperor Kangxi's family.
The problem is, there has never been a crown prince since outside the Guan Dynasty, so there is no need to worry about the rank of the crown prince's brother. The eldest brother is also Mingzhu's nephew. Sai Sehei, the Minister of Rites, has always been kind to others, and he is not willing to have anything to do with the Nalan family because of this. Discord.
Yin'a and Yin'i were staying in Xinuang Pavilion. I didn't know what Yin'a said, which made Yin'i giggle. The two brothers were having fun together, and they were very happy to hear it.
Kangxi listened to the childish laughter of his sons and said to the Minister of Rites: "My brother, Prince Yu, and I were in front of the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager was also reciting family rituals. Although the emperor and his ministers were discussed in court, I always respected Brother Yu, the Emperor." The same should be true for the prince. Yin a is the eldest son of the emperor, and Xuzhi is the eldest.
Let him stand behind the six hereditary princes and in front of the two princes Keqin and Shuncheng. If he is to be ennobled in the future, if the eldest son is a prince, he will be ranked second to the six hereditary princes; if he is a county prince, he will be ranked second to the two princes. times; if it is Baelor, it will be at the head of Baelor. And so on, it will be considered as a rule."
When the Minister of Rites retired, Kangxi walked to the door of Xinuang Pavilion and saw that Yin A was making random wishes, saying that if he left the palace, he would definitely bring something good to Yin A and so on.
"You only left the palace once, and I didn't even remember to bring anything with you." Kangxi lifted up his robe and sat down, saying, "Yinyi, don't believe what your brother said. He was having so much fun that he was afraid of forgetting you. It’s in the back of my head!”
...This is to sow discord between brothers!
"Brother, Khan Ama is teasing you! Haha, you have been deceived too!" Yinyi laughed so hard on the kang that she couldn't get up.
Yin A puts on a dead fish face, he really gets more and more alive... he has been tricked, and there is no room for rebuttal.
In June, Kangxi formally took the crown prince outside Cining Palace to greet him for the first time before he learned about Hongci. The next day, the crown prince moved to the palace. All the kings and below, as well as the fourth-rank officials in Beijing and above, all rushed to Yuqing The palace celebrates the prince's move to the palace.
It was the first time Yin A stood on duty. In front of him and behind him were either middle-aged people or old men with white beards. He was just a human cub who had just grown his hair. But there was an advantage. When he knelt down and kowtowed to the Crown Prince, Yin A Hiding in the crowd, he couldn't stand out at all. He just squatted and waved his paws, fluttered and finally stood up.
When the congratulations were over and the courtiers were talking outside Yuqing Palace, Mingzhu pulled Yin'a and said, "Brother, do you still remember me?"
"uncle!"
The uncle and nephew are enjoying themselves here. In Yuqing Palace, Suo'etu is also saying to the prince: "Does the prince recognize me?"
"Khan Amma said that you are the emperor's uncle and my uncle." Yinyi smiled innocently: "However, the queen mother told me that I still have my grandfather and uncle. Do you know that they are coming?
"
The ministers outside had not dispersed yet, waiting for the emperor's order, and Suo'etu walked out of the inner hall of Yuqing Palace with a dark face. Others didn't know what had happened, and they were all a little shy, but Master Suo San said it as soon as he saw it.
I saw Mingzhu and the eldest brother talking, both of them smiling.
"I'm so excited, Grand Master." Suo'etu said with a smile, "I'd like to say hello to my eldest brother. How are you, brother?"
"Okay, hello." Yin'a said with a smile on his face.
Suo'etu said: "When I saw it just now, Yuqing Palace is very exquisite. It's all because of the emperor's love for the East Palace. Hey, I wonder if eldest brother likes this Yuqing Palace?"
Yin A wants to curse. This is the first time since he came back to life that he wants to curse... Suo'etu, are you sick? I'm only seven years old. At seven years old, you can't start guarding against thieves now, right?
Mingzhu immediately grabbed Yin'a's arm, pulled her nephew behind her, and said coldly: "What does Suo Xiang mean?"
