The day before the Empress Dowager's birthday, Yinti came to the guard's office, just as Rong Ruo was on duty and planned to go home.
His life has been very regular recently, taking care of the children at home, but as cute as the children are, the rumors outside are so ferocious. Even Elondai said cautiously: "I heard something, don't take it to heart."
Seeing Yin Ti, Rong Ruo let out a breath of turbidity silently. This person probably came here too, "Cousin, don't forget this."
Unexpectedly, Yinti said: "Are you free? Let's go out of the palace together. I have something to tell you."
"Let's go."
The two cousins left the guards and walked around in a big circle out of Shenwumen. It was still cold, so they all wore warm hats and cloaks. Yinti has grown taller this year, and everyone behind him is also wearing similar clothes.
, no one recognized them along the way.
White smoke was still coming out from his mouth when he opened his mouth. Yinti rode on the horse and said: "That's it. Your rumors, Suo'etu may come back, Xu Qian wants to imitate them, that's what I think. Do you think it's you talking to your uncle, or...
I'll talk to my uncle."
"...Let me tell you." Rong Ruodao said: "I am the person involved, and so is he. Amma and I have made it clear. Let's see what he says."
Mingzhu has been going smoothly in recent years. He was promoted from a blue-ling bodyguard to a bachelor of Wuying Palace in twenty years. It is inevitable that he is a little overwhelmed.
So after Rongruo relayed these words, Mingzhu laughed loudly: "You kids just can't handle things. I work for the emperor, doesn't the emperor need me to do things? Who else can he use without me, Suo'etu?"
"Amma..."
Rong Ruo was about to speak but was interrupted by Mingzhu, who smiled and said: "Your mother and I are worried about you. The rumors outside are so fierce that we are afraid that you will feel sad. But it seems that you don't care this time. That's right. I want to
If you stay in the imperial court, you should be aware of those things, but don't take them too seriously."
"My son knows how much Amma and E Niang care for him, and he has always been deeply touched by it and dare not forget it."
Rongruo couldn't help but said at this moment: "But Amma believes in herself too much? You are in the cabinet, Fu Lata is also in the cabinet, and most of the people in the cabinet are promoted by you. On the grassland, the emperor once complained that the cabinet listened to Mingzhu
If so, he, the emperor, can just make the seal!"
"Amma, I am really uneasy. The Emperor is asking for the forehead picture again. You have been too aggressive in the past few years. If he wants to suppress it..."
"It's not over yet." Mingzhu still gained the upper hand with confidence, "Sabsu and Bahai fought well, and Yaksa has been defeated. The Russians submitted a letter asking for peace, and in May their envoys arrived in Beijing. Son
, the emperor has appointed you, Amma, to be the head of negotiations, what do you think? The emperor still believes in me."
On the birthday of the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng, Kangxi gathered all his children together early in the morning and went to Cining Palace to salute. This was the Empress Dowager's first birthday after she recovered from illness. Kangxi paid special attention not to overwork the old lady.
Relaxed and comfortable.
The prince gave a Buddha statue, which Suo'etu bought for him. It is said to be an old thing on the grassland. It is made of sapphire, and the old queen likes it very much. The eyes of several elders below collided, and the third brother secretly muttered:
Sure enough, it's nice to enjoy the shade under the big tree.
After the prince gave the birthday gift, Kangxi smiled and said: "Yinti, what have you prepared?"
"When I returned to Khan Amma, my sons prepared gifts together and asked the ancestors to accept them."
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager looked at this side with smiles. Kangxi also smiled and said: "Let's prepare together? What kind of gift can this be?"
Yinqi came up with a good idea. He said that the brothers could entertain themselves in colorful clothes and sing a Horqin tune to the Empress Dowager, about the vastness of the prairie and the blue sky and white clouds.
He grew up in Ningshou Palace, so he naturally listened to it a lot, so he found a piece of music like this. It was also very popular, and all their brothers had listened to it, and several of them could speak Mongolian, so this was not a problem.
The important question is, "Should we tell the prince?"
If I don’t say it, it seems that they are working together not to play with the prince. But if the prince feels that they are not decent and refuses directly without saying anything, they may not be allowed to do this.
But Yinti didn't care, he said: "Then let's cut it first and then play it. Anyway, the prince also knows this song. When the time comes, I will get him to sing together. There is nothing shameful in Caiyi's entertainment, he won't say anything."
Sure enough, before it was Yinti's turn, he pulled the prince out from the banquet, pushed him to sing first, and gave him the last line of the lyrics. From the eldest to the eighth, the seven princes stood neatly, with the prince taking the lead.
Congratulations to the Queen Mother on her birthday.
Everyone was happy. Kangxi was naturally happy that his sons were respectful brothers, loved and filial, and the old queen mother was also happy with the children's kindness.
Only the prince wanted to keep a straight face but couldn't, and his face kept twitching if he wanted to smile or not.
"Emperor, Baoqing's wife, which family do you like the children of?" the Empress Dowager suddenly asked.
Kangxi knew what the old lady was thinking. After the old lady suffered a stroke, she was happy to see her children and grandchildren. Kangxi said: "Grandma, don't worry, your grandson knows what to expect next year. If nothing happens, the decision will be made, and then he will get married."
.”
Old ladies like to tease their grandchildren, even the Queen Mother is no exception. At this moment, the old Queen Mother asked: "Baoqing, what kind of daughter-in-law do you like?"
"..." Yinti blinked and thought for a moment before saying, "I like girls as beautiful as the Gesangmei blossoms on the grassland or the moon in the sky."
"Hey, how can you only look at appearance when marrying a wife based on virtue?" Kangxi was dissatisfied and wanted to pay attention to virtue, virtue!
Yinti thought to himself, can I still say that I want a mother who is like the world?
He said straightforwardly: "Khan Ama, if the other party is as ugly as salt, and no matter how virtuous she is, it makes people feel miserable, will anyone really listen to her words? When selecting officials, the imperial court also has to look at their appearance."
The emperor himself doesn't like decent ministers, he always praises which minister is handsome and decent, tsk tsk.
But the Empress Dowager laughed so hard: "Yes, yes, the Han people say they are lustful and admire Shaoai. We Baoqing are also decent and handsome young men. Why can't we have a good wife?"
Kangxi was helpless, and the Queen Mother came to join in the fun: "Baocheng, what kind of woman do you like?"
The prince was more well-behaved: "My grandson thinks that ordinary appearance is enough, but his moral character must be good." The future queen, the mother of a country, must naturally be virtuous, otherwise there is no way to honor the world as a mother.
"Don't worry, your Khan Amma will definitely choose a good wife for you!" The Queen Mother said with a smile, "She must be like Kelsang Meiduo, and she must have outstanding virtues and good conduct."
I don’t dare to say that in the world, anyway, the banner women must be selected by the royal family, so they won’t go too far. But Yinti is still a little afraid of marriage. He is always afraid, what if he and the other party can’t get along?
The idea of wasting a woman's entire life for nothing was a bit hard to accept for An Xiu, who was born in New China and grew up under the red flag.
Although the feudal system kills people, the less it kills, the better it will be. Yinti held his chin and thought of this.
The eldest brother had something on his mind and drank too much fruit wine. After he was sent back to his home, he lay in bed in a daze until midnight.
After being drunk and thirsty, Yinti let out a sigh and decided to stand up and pour herself a cup of tea. Now that it was cold, there was a small stove to keep warm in the bedroom, probably right at the door.
"Ouch!"
The eldest brother turned over to get out of bed, but felt a warm and soft object under his hand... A woman's voice sounded, this is a person!
"Who are you!" Yinti woke up in shock. Now he was no longer thirsty. He had to urinate urgently and was frightened.
Everyone was on duty outside today. When he heard the screams, he rushed in and threw the woman leaning on the bed under the footrest. Yinti was wrapped in a quilt, and the eunuchs and palace maids who entered the room one after another lit the lamps.
"This is... you are the palace maid!" It was one of the ones sent over by the Jingsi Room. Yinti breathed a sigh of relief, and then said angrily: "You are so scary, why are you doing this! And, you guys
What do people do to eat, why does she come to serve them!"
Aunt Chen lives in the side room of the elder brother. With her qualifications, she does not have to stay with the eunuchs until late at night. Therefore, after making sure that the elder brother has slept well, she tells the eunuchs to take good care of her and then goes back to her room.
.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, there was a sudden noise in the main room, and Grandma Chen was also awakened. Qin Ji came over and reported, "Mammy, the eldest brother is scared!" This was bad, Grandma Chen put on her clothes.
, stepped on his shoes and ran out.
"Quickly send the imperial doctor to the eldest brother and ask him to prepare a soothing soup. What do you mean?" Aunt Chen was also in a hurry. She had never had such an obvious thing happen to her office in so many years.
"No need!" Yinti's breathing calmed down now. He pointed at the woman kneeling under the bed: "What's going on here?"
"Go get a bowl of milk for my brother." Aunt Chen said carefully: "Brother, this is from the service room, do you remember? She said in the evening that it was her turn to take care of her, so she shouldn't be lazy.
Even if she helps her brother drink water and change clothes, she is doing her best. Who knows..."
Who would have known that this man was so brave that he leaned directly beside his brother's bed, trying to climb onto the bed!
It was also unlucky. At another time, even if the eldest brother didn't accept it, he wouldn't have disturbed so many people. Who would have thought that when the elder brother was drunk, she was so frightened by her in the middle of the night. Grandma Chen glanced at the palace maid, and her life was bad.
No one else is to blame.
"Come here, tie her up and send her to the minister's office so that Mr. Gu can punish her!"
"Brother, please save me. I have something to hide, please help me!" As soon as the palace maid heard that she was going to be punished, she immediately cried and begged. She was not allowed to yell when being punished. Now the palace maid has become like this.
She was extremely unruly. Seeing Yin Ti's face, Grandma Chen quickly ordered someone to drag the palace maid away.
The palace maid has been pleading for help. This situation is really rare. Yinti frowned and said: "Wait a minute! Let her come here first, punish her without teaching her, and let her tell her what she has to hide."
"Replying to my brother, this servant is the coater under the banner of Xianglan." The palace maid tried her best to steady herself. Although her words were a little garbled, everyone in the room listened. This matter is really sensational!
The palace maid's name is Ji He. She is the eldest of four sisters in the family. As a rule, the palace maid can meet with her family twice a month, but in the past three months, Ji He has not seen her family. When she was selected to serve
My eldest brother, I just heard that her two eldest sisters were married to someone for a wedding at her home.
However, when Ji He asked Xu to sleep with him, the Ama at home was hesitant and could not speak out. Ji He had doubts in his heart. Her eldest sister failed to be chosen as a palace maid because her eyesight was bad. The second sister was born in Mopan when she was a child.
I fell down and my legs and feet were not good, so I was exempted from the selection process when I checked in.
The eldest sister has reached the age of marriage, but because of her eyesight, she has never had anyone to marry her, so how could she suddenly get married. Besides, the second sister is not old enough, and even if she gets married, Amma will not be unable to tell her uncle's family.
Bar?
It happened that a sister who entered the palace with her got the grace to leave the palace. Jihe asked her to help inquire. It was good to inquire. It turned out that her sister was allowed to go out for no reason. The neighbors said that they did not even mention the wedding.
Why is my uncle's family so anxious to get married?
After that, the neighbors never saw the two girls again, and the two living people disappeared without a trace.
Now Ji He was frightened. She couldn't get out of the palace. If her parents were so perfunctory, the matter would really go bad. By the time she left the palace, the day lilies were all cold, and Ji He really had no choice.
, I was confused for a moment and my brain was twisted.
The girl kowtowed loudly and her forehead was broken: "Brother, I really can't help you. I was confused for a moment. Please make the decision for me. If you want my life in the future, I will let you do whatever you want. Please.
Brother!"
Yinti shouted: "Stop knocking! Everyone take her down, clean up her wounds, and keep an eye on her."
After the palace maid was left, Yinti looked around and said, "This is a serious matter. If any of you dare to spread the word, be careful with your life!"
The eunuchs and the palace maids probably also retreated, leaving only Nanny Chen and others. Nanny Chen said: "Brother, if what the palace maid said is true...then this is unheard of.
!”
Not only is it unheard of, but according to what she said, if you ask, you will know that the possibility of lying is very small. So, this thing sounds like human trafficking... Eight Banners human trafficking? Ridiculous.
Yinti thought about it and felt that this matter still needs to be investigated. He can't just hand the person over to a consultant. He can't let go of an unknown person; but he can't just hand over a girl because she is helpless and confused.
Button it up.
"Qin Ji, you change your clothes tomorrow and ask Sulu and a few guards to go to Ji He's house to have a look. Don't reveal your identity. Just ask around in the neighborhood. Do you understand?"
"Hey, I understand."
It was not until the afternoon of the next day that Yinti knew that Jihe had not lied and that two girls in her family were missing, but the family refused to tell them. Then he went to find the general manager of the eunuch consulting firm, saying that he did not want to pursue Jihe.
, but the situation at her home is indeed problematic.
"Gu Shuda, I was afraid of misunderstanding, so I asked Xiao Qin to go and see it." Yinti said: "But the result is exactly what the maid said. I would like to ask you to check the rest. After all, if
If the girls under our banner are really kidnapped or sold, that would be a big deal."
The consultant's face was serious, and he leaned forward and said: "This is a big deal. It was only with the kindness of my eldest brother that I discovered this matter. Don't worry, I will send someone right now. If it is really such a dirty thing, I will report it to the emperor immediately."
"That's good. Please pay more attention to Gu Shuda."
In March, the most sensational thing in the capital was not the rise of Suo'etu, nor the fact that the crown prince was about to leave the cabinet, nor the fact that Mingzhu led the ministers of the Council of Ministers to argue with the Russian envoys. It was that something unprecedented had happened under the banner of Xianglan.
A ridiculous case: A confused couple thought they were marrying their daughter, but they were actually selling their daughter.
The most ridiculous thing is that after discovering that there was something fishy about their daughter's "marriage", the couple was threatened by the matchmaker, "You can't run away if you dare to report it to the official!" So the couple really hid the fact that their daughter was sold.
Come down.
When Emperor Kangxi heard the consultant talk about this matter, he also said that Yin Ti was really soft-hearted and even took the requests of his slaves seriously.
As a result, when the report from the nine admirals was delivered, the emperor became so angry that he almost passed away. He immediately ordered to find the two girls who had been sold and send them home properly, and then sentenced several so-called "matchmakers" to death by hanging.
, the fool who acted as guarantee was sentenced to exile.
The confused couple were sentenced to flogging and cane punishment. Starting from Prince Jian, the leader of the big flag, all the flag leaders down to the assistant leaders were reprimanded. As for Yinti, in addition to an additional oath, he swore to give
In addition to the palace maid who died for him, there is one more anecdote.
"It is said that the eldest brother was angry because my concubine was crying and begging, so the eldest brother acted righteously and discovered this case." Shen Zai said with a smile in Lushui Pavilion: "Even I
Everyone has heard about it, so it’s spread widely enough.”
Rongruo frowned and said, "I'm worried about another thing. Will King Jian Yabu hold a grudge against his eldest brother?"
"That's not true. Besides, what can he do even if he holds a grudge? Brother Rong Ruo, don't think too much." Shen Liao advised: "This year I have also gained a little understanding of the affairs of the bannermen. Prince Jian stood up on tiptoe.
He can't even reach the big brother with his feet."
This is the truth. Rong Ruo nodded, and Gu Zhenguan also knew it. However, at this moment, Mr. Gu was more concerned about another news: "Suo'etu came back this time and was appointed as the minister of bodyguards. The young master thinks, will he continue to increase the number of ministers in the Ming Dynasty?"
pressure."
"That's for sure, but I feel that I am absolutely not afraid of Suo'etu. I have said everything I should say, but he can't listen." Rongruo shook his head, "I have always been the only one to force my son. When has a son ever forced me to do anything?
Yes. I have no choice."
"Hey, has Xu Qianxue said anything recently?" Gu Zhenguan had an idea: "If he is hiding from the young master now, he must have something in his heart."
Rong Ruo didn't speak for a long time, and finally nodded heavily: "Master Xu and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Since he was kicked out of the south study room by the emperor last time, I haven't been able to see him on duty. Usually... he is indeed avoiding me,
As for what the plot is, will he really join forces with Suo'etu?"
"I heard that Master Suo is a collector of everyone. Although he is a bit arrogant in court, his temper has improved a lot in the past two years as he has cultivated his moral character."
Shen Ling recalled what he heard from the market, and finally said: "He can be considered a scholar. If he is nice to talk to, and the hatred between Xu Qianxue and Ming Xiang is too deep, it is not impossible for them to collude."
"Enmity is inevitable. I remember the last time I met him, Master Xu complained a lot about Fulun and Yu Guozhu." Rong Ruo sighed: "They despise each other, and I, Amma, chose Fulun and Yu in the end.
How could he not hate Yu Guozhu?"
Being an official is irreplaceable, Mingzhu cannot listen to her son's words, Rong Ruo has no choice, and Gu Zhenguan has no choice. Now their mood is a bit like watching a person walking straight into a pit, they can only look forward to the future.
The pit is a fake pit.
In April, the crown prince went out to study. The crown prince brought the Manchu and Han bachelors, Jiuqing, Hanlin Academy, Zhanshifu and other officials to salute Kangxi in front of the Baohe Hall. Kangxi also took out the prince's past coursework in the Wenhua Hall.
He praised the prince's hard work and hard work to his officials.
This doesn't make much sense. Yinfeng never slacked off in his studies, but it had nothing to do with Yinti. On this day, he was ordered to go to Kangxi's newly built garden to see the progress of the project. If this garden has been named Changchun Garden, if
After the repairs were almost completed, Kangxi planned to honor the Empress Dowager in the summer, and the Empress Dowager came to Changchun Garden to escape the summer heat.
"The Lei family's craftsmanship is truly top-notch."
The architecture here not only conforms to the environmental characteristics of the north, but also has the beauty of southern gardens. The style is simple and not extravagant.
Yinti praised a few words, and the manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs next to him, Yinti's grandma Galu, said: "The emperor has ordered people to find a place around Changchun Garden. From my perspective, it is to be prepared for the elder brothers.
Why don't you let the Lei family help you make a hot sample now?"
"If it's convenient, please help me. It's still early when I open the house, so the Lei family doesn't have to worry." Yinti said: "I heard from Sulu that grandma has suffered from autumn cough in the past two years. I don't know if she's better.
?”
Galu said: "Sulu, this little boy, it's troublesome for my elder brother to talk about this. She's okay. It's inevitable that she will have some minor problems as she gets older. It doesn't matter. But my brother is getting married. She spends all day at home burning incense and wishing her the best."
You have a good fortune."
"It all depends on Khan Amma's wishes." Yinti pointed to the west side of the garden: "I'll ask you to worry more about this side. Try to repair it as much as possible before summer. Khan Amma plans to come here with the old queen and the empress dowager. The rest of the surrounding areas
It’s just a matter of slowly renovating the place in time for autumn and winter.”
After the prince came out of the cabinet, Kangxi had settled one major matter, but he had three major matters to deal with. One was the Russians' request for peace, and the other was Jin Fu's control of the river for several years, but the floods kept recurring. Finally, it was family matters, Yinti.
She is already fifteen years old, and it is time to decide on the candidate for the eldest daughter-in-law.
Kangxi took out the list of people he had previously drawn, thought about it, and finally selected a few people. The emperor sent the birthdays and horoscopes of the selected people to the Qintian Prison, and also sent people to the people.
Do the math.
See if it is compatible with the eldest brother, and see if it is suitable for living in IKEA. However, Kangxi only did these things out of routine, and he himself was not particularly convinced of the prophecies of gods and ghosts. Which one to choose, you still have to wait until the big choice.
.
In the summer of this year, Kangxi did not go on patrol. Instead, he sent the two empress dowagers to Changchun Garden for summer vacation. The prince and the princes above the eighth prince accompanied him. However, as soon as he arrived at Changchun Garden, the emperor received a report that Jiangning Weaving Cao Cao
Xi died of illness, and his son, Xieli Weaving, Cao Yin wrote to Ding You.
Sitting in the Qingxi Bookstore, Kangxi sighed deeply and wrote, "Brother Cao Yin is ordered to honor his mother and carry the coffin back to Beijing for burial. We will discuss the candidate for Jiangning Weaving."
The author has something to say: The case is true, but after the mid-Qing Dynasty, the parents were unreliable, which was really fatal.
Mingzhu Laoyoutiao also became popular. From the 23rd year of Kangxi to his downfall, the loss of his son did not stop him from forming gangs.
