Because Hongli began to learn to run errands, Hang Seng also ended his career as a companion.

For a moment, Hang Seng felt a little idle.

Brothers are preparing for the exam, and they are preparing to get married. He was an idler, resting at home for more than ten days, and he couldn't sit still, so he automatically asked Ying to assist a few stewards to handle the matter of Li's birthday.

Changsheng is going to take the boy's exam next year, and Hengsheng is still hesitating whether to end up with his little uncle. But of course, it's not a Kawen exam, but I want to take the martial arts exam.

He was hesitating to ask his father's opinion, and someone had already made up his mind for him.

"This is still a matter of thinking, naturally it is to make up for the guards!" Hongli listened to Hengsheng's plan and said without hesitation.

Hongday, who came with him, glared at Hengsheng with hatred and hatred, and said, "Is this still said by the fourth brother?" I haven't heard of any prince's companion reading, retired from the upper study, and was idle? Can't you really get rid of our relationship? ”

Hengsheng was stunned when he heard it, in his early years, when he was a child, he also wanted to be like his father, first to be a companion, and then to make up the guards; In the past few years, he also knows that the guards don't just want to make up for it.

Although if the prince intervened in this matter, it would be easy to do the difficult thing, but he didn't expect Hongli to take the initiative to help with this.

Seeing Hengsheng's face full of chaos, Hongli couldn't help but be surprised, and said: "It's been ten days since you came back, and about the future ahead, Lord Cao didn't show his mouth?" ”

"My father said that I was tired from running around and asked me to rest first, and my mother also said that I had lost weight, so I should make up for my body." Hengsheng replied with a smile.

When he first returned to Beijing, Hengsheng was a little haggard, but after half a month, he had already been alive and vigorous, and he had also grown stronger. He was already tall, and he didn't look like a fifteen-year-old boy, but like a young man.

Hongli is tall, but he doesn't feel anything; Hongli was not as tall and strong as Hengsheng, but now that he heard what he said, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, looked at Hengsheng several times, and said, "What kind of eyes are Sister Herui and Master Cao, where are you losing weight?" If you make up for it, you will become a fat man. ”

These two princes, but they were able to come to visit him, Hengsheng was in a good mood, but he didn't care about Hongday's jokes, and said with a smile: "No way, I didn't think it earlier, I went to Khalkha, and I felt that the food at home was delicious, and I could eat two more bowls of rice than in the past." ”

Hengsheng has been studying in the palace for many years, and everyone eats together at noon, and Hongtian knows the amount of his meal.

Hearing him say that he can "eat two more bowls of rice" at each meal, Hongtian couldn't help but be speechless, and said a little incredulously: "Your original amount of rice was three bowls, and if you eat two more bowls, wouldn't it be five bowls?" ”

As he spoke, he also stretched out his hand, five fingers open, and looked at Heng Sheng's gaze a little hotter.

Hengsheng nodded embarrassedly and said, "Well, it's five bowls." If you have a good time, you can sometimes eat six bowls. ”

When Hongtian heard this, his eyes widened even more, revealing a little envy, and he turned his head to Hongli and said, "Fourth brother, what are you talking about today, I will also have dinner at Cao's house before returning to the palace!" ”

Seeing him so dead-skinned, Hongli couldn't help but touch his forehead.

Fortunately, in front of Hengsheng, everyone is familiar with each other, otherwise others would have seen it, and he, the prince and brother, would not have enough to eat in the palace.

Speaking of which, it's not that the dishes in the palace are not delicious, it's just that after saying that year after year, similar recipes can't be eaten in delicious things.

At this time, it is normal to change your appetite and eat something outside, and feel that it is delicious.

Hengsheng's surname is bold, and he is willing to keep guests, but he still asked in a coarse and detailed manner: "The fourth master, the fifth master is willing to appreciate his face, which is the dignity of our Cao family, but do you want to make people go back to the palace to report, save the summons of the mothers, and you can't find the two masters to worry?" ”

Hongli waved his hand and said, "No need, you will be fine if you return to the palace before six o'clock in the evening." ”

After staying in the palace for all these years, Hengsheng's surname is also a little cautious, thinking that the two princes are light and simple, and they are still a little uneasy.

Hongday explained: "Today, the fourth brother took me out of the palace to inspect the birthday ceremony of the Wanshou Festival, and reported it in front of the emperor's mother and his mother. ”

Hengsheng was relieved at this time, called a small servant, and sent a message to his mother to tell the two elder brothers about leaving food.

Hongtian naturally smiled, and said, "By the way, I heard Bai Li say, two days ago, a Mongolian convoy came to your house?" Anyway, isn't it a good thing you brought back from Mongolia? ”

Bai Li is his companion and lives in Caofu Front Street.

When Hengsheng first came back, he was summoned by the fourth elder brother and entered the palace once. At that time, Hongyang wanted to ask for a gift, and Hengsheng said that he would return to Beijing first, and other luggage and belongings would be delayed to Beijing, promising that the gift would be presented in a few days.

Heng Sheng nodded and said, "It is true that some of the things that the minions bought over there are mainly gifts from the Khan Palace." Just thinking about how to send a message to the palace, the two elder brothers went down, but it was cheap. ”

After saying this, he called another servant and whispered a few words.

After a while, I saw the little guy come over with a tray. Hengsheng got up and took it, and personally served it to the two elder brothers.

Hongli is two pairs of Mongolian knives inlaid with lapis lazuli, and Hongday's is two pairs of silver wine jugs inlaid with eight treasures.

Hongli took it and thanked him, but Hongli was playing with the wine jug, frowning a little, and said, "You can't fool the master?" I have been thinking about it for so long, just a pair of small wine jugs? ”

Hengsheng smiled: "It's just a gadget, made by an old Mongolian craftsman over there, it can't be compared to the delicacy of the inner production, but it's just a meaning." The gifts of the two masters are collected in the Haidian Garden, and it is not cheap to see now. ”

When Hongli heard this, his eyes flashed, and he did not speak; Hongday's eyes lit up and said, "But the Mongolian horse? ”

Hengsheng nodded and said, "Exactly." Thanks to the gifts from the Khan's palace, the minions got dozens of horses. The slave has already made people keep a few horses, if the two masters do not dislike it, they will honor the two masters. Whether the two masters reward people, or stay for the opening of the mansion, follow the orders of the two masters. ”

Hongtian was a little excited, and couldn't stop saying: "Okay, good, this is a good gift." ”

Hongli was also interested, and asked, "Is it an adult horse, or a foal?" ”

"It depends on the minds of the two masters." Hang Seng Road.

Hongli said: "That master is going to be an adult horse, and after two days, you will directly send someone to the upper courtyard." Compare the horses from the pastures outside the mouth to see which one has better stamina. If it's really good, you can keep it as a stallion. ”

"Huh." Hengsheng got up and answered.

Hongyang thought about it for a while, and said: "I originally wanted a foal, so that people can train it, and then reward people in the future." Since the fourth brother wants an adult horse, then I also want an adult horse. If you keep it as a stallion, you will be able to have a lot of foals in a few years. ”

In such a joke, a steward came over to pass the word, and it was Chu Yu who invited the two elder brothers to speak in Wutong Garden.

Cao Hao went to the yamen and was not in the house, and Hongli was also looking for his cousin to talk about Hengsheng's guards.

Although with the current status of the Cao family, it is not difficult for the children to make up for the guards, but there is still a son of the Cao family before Hengsheng.

According to the old calendar, most of the powerful families sent their eldest sons with inheritance rights to supplement the guards, so that they had the opportunity to wait for the emperor and have a good future.

But Hengsheng's identity is different after all, although he is the second son, he is the prince's companion.

Even if he doesn't have a mark on his body, he can look at people from others, and he can be regarded as the fourth elder brother.

In fact, even if the two brothers of the Cao family make up the guards, it is not a difficult matter, but I don't know if the Cao family's side really recognized the career of the imperial examination.

Hongli thought like this, and together with Hongday, he entered the inner house with Hengsheng and went to Wutong Garden.

This time, the two cousins wanted to go together.

Chu Yu asked the two elder brothers to speak in Wutongyuan, which was to make up for Hengsheng's guards.

Cao Hao thought in his heart that he was the son of Hengsheng, and he didn't think of the side for the time being; Chu Yu's woman is careful, and she has already seen that Hengsheng is not comfortable staying in the house.

After all, when I was a child, everyone else had something to do, and he was idle alone, and he was really bored.

It's just that Cao Hao's sons, in order to supplement the affairs of the maritime trade regulations and the ministry, are very busy, and Chu Yu can't find the opportunity to discuss with her husband.

In her opinion, it is natural to make up a guard for Hang Seng to be safe and cheap.

Hearing that the two elder brothers were visiting, Chu Yu asked them to come to Wutong Garden, just to explore the fourth elder brother's style.

According to the old practice in the palace, a guard like Hengsheng, who was born as a prince's companion, even if he entered the guard's office, most of them had to be assigned to the prince's side as an errand boy.

Unexpectedly, Hongli took the initiative to mention this matter, Chu Yu was overjoyed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he only said that he was grateful to the two elder brothers for hanging on Hengsheng, and he would talk about it after discussing it with her husband.

Hongli recently learned to run errands in the Sixth Department, and remembered that Cao Hao was busy recently, and some of his earlier dissatisfaction with his negligence Hengsheng also disappeared.

After leaving the two elder brothers to talk for a while, someone came from the kitchen to say that the table had been prepared, and they came to ask Chu Yu where to place the table.

In the end, it was placed in the flower hall in the front yard, and when Tianyou came back from going out, he came forward to accompany him.

At a young age, he was selected for lifting, and he was a character like Zhilan Yushu, and Hongli talked to him more speculatively. Hongtian and Hengsheng were put aside, holding their rice bowls, but their bellies were open.

I don't know if it's because of the "incense in the pot", Hongtian ate three bowls of rice in one go, and held the bowl to call the little guy to add rice.

Hongli happened to see it, and hurriedly said: "How many times have you added?" I can't add more, what should I do if it breaks? ”

Although Hongtian was a little reluctant, he was still obedient and obedient, and drank half a bowl of bamboo shoot soup before putting down his chopsticks.

In the end, it was a little supportive, Hongday was touching his stomach and coming out of Caofu. Hongli had to preach, and when he returned to the palace, he was a little relieved, so he went to the Tai Hospital to prescribe a diet pill and sent it to Hongday...... When Cao Hao returned home, it was already the beginning of the year (seven o'clock in the evening).

The wind picked up outside, and small snowflakes began to rise.

When Cao Hao entered the house, he was covered with cold, and there was some snow on his hat and shoulders.

Seeing this, Chu Yu was busy serving him to change his supplementary clothes, and asked someone to bring hot water to wash his face.

Although Cao Hao had a cold air on his body, his heart was hot.

After several discussions, the Maritime Trade Regulations finally passed the ministerial meeting.

The sea trade regulations that passed this passage were no longer the ones originally proposed by Cao Hao, but were supplemented in detail by the Thirteen Elder Brothers, one of which was to open the Nanyang sea ban and allow Shishu to conduct sample trade within the legal scope.

Ming said that it was the rotation of the household in front of the emperor, and this sea trade article would be handed to the front by him and Zhang Tingyu. If the emperor approves it, then the sea ban will be opened next year.

Cao Hao's initial proposal of the Maritime Trade Regulations was a test to open the sea ban. Only when the imperial court really understands the benefits of maritime trade can it attach importance to this piece.

Unexpectedly, the thirteenth elder brother was even bolder, and directly asked Cao Hao to add the matter of opening the sea ban to Tiao Chen.

Has history changed little by little?

Cao Hao's eyes were bright, his eyes were a little moist, and he remembered the words of the thirteenth elder brother in his ears: "I have this thought, it's all because of Fu Ruo." Starting from the Holy Grandfather, he was very strict against foreigners. Foreign vessels entering the port of Guangzhou must first go to Macao for inspection before entering the port. Closing the door in this way is only to prevent gentlemen, not robbers. If one day they divide up the land of other places and beat the idea to the Qing Dynasty, how can we close the door if we want to? ”

The Chinese people have always been arrogant, claiming to be the superior country of the Celestial Empire, and treating foreigners as barbarians.

Only the thirteenth elder brother has a foreign goods shop in the palace, and there are also people in Guangzhou, so he knows more about the situation in the West. In addition, Cao Hao mentioned that the foreigners used muskets and cannons to open the way, occupy various places, and open up colonies, which made the thirteenth elder brother wary of foreigners.

Chu Yu sensed her husband's joy, and her mood also became happy.

Cao Hao is not only happy for business, but also because of the news from the sixteenth elder brother, Hengsheng's request for the son of the world is not far from ten.

After Cao Hao had dinner, Chu Yu mentioned the descent of the two princes, as well as Hongli's proposal to Hengsheng to make up for the guards.

This is not the first time these two princes have returned to Cao's mansion, and Cao Hao is not very surprised. Just when talking about Hengsheng's supplementary guards, Cao Hao hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not in a hurry about this, otherwise I'll wait." ”

Chu Yu was a little surprised, and said, "Could it be that you still have any plans?" Will you really let Hang Seng take the martial arts test? ”

Cao Hao shook his head and said, "The guards always have to make up for it, but if you wait a little longer, maybe you can cross Lan Ling and the third class, and directly make up the second class, maybe you can still make up the first class." ”

Chu Yu knew that her husband never told lies, but it was a bit too much to say that he could surpass Lan Ling and the third-class guards.

Among the clan guards, there are some who are not very old, and they can also make up for the first and second ranks, which is more of honor and decency; Foreign ministers make up for the guards, and more of them are still the holy bows of the guards, and most of them are boiled out one level at a time.

The matter will be done, and Cao Hao is not afraid that his wife will worry about it, so he will tell Chu Yu about Hengsheng's succession.

Chu Yu was happy at first, but then frowned: "In this way, if Hengsheng is canonized by the imperial court, he will have to open a mansion and live in another house?" He is alone, how can he be reassured? ”

Cao Hao shook his head and said, "It won't be so urgent, even if you want to open a mansion in the capital, it won't be available in a moment and a half, and it will take a year and a half to say it soon." You don't have to worry too much, Kaifu is Kaifu, and it didn't say that he can't continue to live at home......"

That being said, both husband and wife know that with such an enthusiastic momentum as the sixteenth elder brother, the son of Hengsheng is canonized, and the will of the marriage will be fast...... * The newly installed system 7 and Sogou are guilty, the code words are super strenuous, the mouse is always jumping, and the input is also a problem, and the speed of hundreds of words an hour. Tears. Reinstall the system tomorrow, and the two thousand words that are missing today will be completed within the day after tomorrow.

After fighting for five days, the monthly pass is still seventh, and the bonus is lost. The total number of monthly passes is nearly 1,040, 300 more than last month. ^_^。

Snickering, thank you from the bottom of my heart......
