After listening to the words of the sixteenth elder brother, Cao Hao laughed twice and said, "This is a good thing..."

The sixteenth elder brother said: "The emperor has ordered the Internal Affairs Office to prepare the Shizi Mansion here, and this time even Fupeng's Shizi Mansion will make up for ......."

Cao Hao was really surprised this time.

The regulation of the prince's palace is between the prince's palace and the county prince's palace, and it is undertaken by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is definitely not a small expense.

In addition to the construction costs, after the prince opened the palace, he also had to be equipped with corresponding subordinate officials, and this part also led the imperial court to Dai Lu.

Although according to the law, the eldest son of the prince and the prince of the county can be invited to be the son and the eldest son when he is over twenty, and the third elder brother of the Jian Wangfu is established when the year comes, and he should have asked for the title of the prince, but in fact, it still depends on the emperor's wishes.

Not to mention that there is no invitation, it is the eldest son of King Cheng, King Heng, and King Chun canonized by the Kangxi Dynasty, except for the last one that has not changed, the first two have been removed from the title of viscount.

Yongzheng's move, in addition to the grudge when he seized the heir, also has the meaning of opening the way for his son.

Otherwise, when the next emperor ascends the throne, there will be a few more "brother kings" who will inevitably be tied.

In addition, even the money and food can also save one or two.

Unexpectedly, the emperor took the initiative to mention this matter.

Cao Hao pondered for a while, and asked hesitantly: "Sixteenth master, is there filial piety in the southwest?" ”

The sixteenth elder brother "haha" smiled and said: "The master knows, you can definitely guess that Ortai is worthy of being trained in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there are some means of grabbing silver, which not only weakens the power of the local officials and nobles, but also earns silver for the emperor, but it is not much of his credit, speaking of which, it is still Furuo who planted tobacco in the southwest in the first discussion, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is in Guangzhou, and the income has been a lot in recent years."

When Cao Hao heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Sixteenth master, I don't dare to take this credit."

The two knew each other, so Cao Hao directly talked about his conversation with Zhao Tong, as well as his worries about Ortai's selling tobacco in the southwest.

Brother Sixteen smiled.

From the cultivation of opium by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the southwest to the marketing of opium pills in ancient times, most of them were related to the sixteenth elder brother, and he naturally knew the harm of opium better than others.

After half a cup of tea, the sixteenth elder brother said: "Fu Ruo, don't meddle in the matter of smoke and soil" Speaking of this, he paused and said: "The emperor has decided to repair the garden, and the expansion of the Old Summer Palace is about to ......"

Since it is to repair the garden, the silver huā fee will be like flowing water.

Cao Hao heard what the sixteenth elder brother was referring to, and sighed heavily.

The sixteenth elder brother said: "Okay, you don't have to worry about the country and the people." If it's really bad, the most anxious thing is the emperor, but now the emperor is on the rise, and he feels that Ortai is very sympathetic, if the lord is wordy, it seems that he is angry with him, and after a while, he will remind the emperor to pay attention to this matter. You are not allowed to participate in the cooperation again, you have already offended people, and this time again, I am afraid that you will be hated to the bones......"

Cao Hao nodded, although he was still worried in his heart, but he also knew that what the sixteenth elder brother said was right, so he didn't say anything more......

To say Ortai. Really good at being human.

Because of the remoteness of Yunnan and Guizhou. Because the people's livelihood is not rich, Yungui has been in arrears of money and grain over the years.

In the past few years, the Ortai governor Fu Yungui has received money and grain in full every year. The top and bottom of the household are also very well pointed.

When the people mention this man, they are to praise him.

Even Jiang Jian, who rarely commented on foreign officials, couldn't help but say to Cao Hao: "Governor E is indeed a capable minister, and he can manage it so far, no wonder the emperor is serious." ”

Cao Hao listened, thinking that Ortai was using the silver money obtained from selling tobacco soil, and was a little uncomfortable, and said: "Outsiders treat Yungui as remote and poor, but in fact, Yungui has the benefits of salt tea, as well as all kinds of forests and mountains, and if you manage it carefully, you can also make achievements......

Jiang Jian said: "Even so, only the governor of Hubei can be so brilliant and change to other people, in order to seek peace, and deal with the local officials and appease the people, you have to take up all your energy, where is the energy to take care of him?" ”

Cao Hao didn't speak, but thought about what would happen if he was the governor of Yungui.

As a result, he reluctantly found that he did not have the courage to kill people, nor did he have the ruthlessness to sell opium, and if he went to the governor Yungui, he might not be as clear as the will of the three princes of Ortai to remove the flag, which immediately caused panic in the clan.

After all, in the clan, there are a number of princes and county kings, and there are only a dozen of them.

Among them, Prince Cheng, Prince Heng, Prince Chun, Prince Jian, and Prince Ping were already "idle" and "idle" at once.

Unexpectedly, the day after the will was issued, it came down because of the new will.

In the main hall of King Jian's mansion, Yaerjianga took his wife, concubines and children, knelt facing the north and listened to the holy decree.

When he heard that he was ordered to take care of the two blue flags, Yarjiang's body trembled.

It's too surprising not to blame him for being so out of shape.

Since Kangxi Shengzu didn't wait to see him a few years before his death, he has been idle for ten years.

If he was mediocre, he wouldn't be so difficult.

But he was crowned the son of the world at the age of twenty-one, and became the prince at the age of twenty-six, and was relied on by the Holy Ancestor Emperor and became the mainstay of the clan, what a scenery?

It is said that a young husband should not be without wealth for a day, and a big husband should not have power for a day.

has tasted the taste of power, and the feeling of shrinking his head and pretending to be a grandson has become more and more difficult.

It's just that Yarjianga is the same age as the emperor, and he has dealt with many times in his early years, so he knows that he doesn't treat him well, and he is not a generous person, so there is no other way for the sake of his children and grandchildren.

He thought that as long as he kept the title until he died, he would not lose it.

Even if the emperor guarded against the clan and stopped his eldest son from being the son of the family, so that the younger son could inherit it, he would admit it.

For this, he has taken care of the young son born by Xilin Jueluo in the past two years.

The other children are still gone, they have all grown up, those who marry far away, and those who are knighted, but what he is most worried about is his stepwife and several young daughters.

In order to take care of them, he also moved the idea of transferring his young son to his wife's name at the beginning of this year and letting his wife raise him, but he was persuaded by Yongjia.

Yongjia said: "No matter what happens to the emperor in the end, don't chill the hearts of the children, the third elder brother and the third lady are all filial, as the eldest son, it is natural to inherit the title of the lord, and we must always fight for one or two for them." Now that he has made a back road, how can the third elder brother deal with himself? Besides, on the side of Fujin, he regards the eighth elder brother as the root of his life. I can't give up the eighth brother."

Although Yarjianga has no affection for his wife, he pities the two sons-in-law and loses their mothers, and treats his two sons with leniency, because he is afraid that they will suffer what he did back then.

Now that I think of the retreat of the palace, I don't think of my sons as outcasts, but I just think about the holy will and plan for the worst.

After listening to his wife's words, he put this thought aside for a while.

In addition to the reasons Yongjia said, it was also more or less because the eighth elder brother was seven or eight years old, and he was taught by Xilin Jueluo to have a small family spirit and was estranged from his mother-in-law, which made Yaerjianga not very satisfied.

He regretted it a little in his heart. If he had brought the eighth elder brother to Fujin earlier, he would not have raised his son like this.

Despite this, he didn't think that he could add more children, and in the past few years, he has stayed in Fujin's room, and Fujin has not moved.

He has reached the age of knowing his destiny.

Unexpectedly, in March, the Jin family of Shufu Jin held a banquet, invited Yaerjianga to eat wine, and left him in his room after he was drunk.

Although there are many concubines in Yaerjiang, the Jin family has been favored for several years because of their good looks, gentleness and pettiness, but they have bad luck, and they have never been pregnant since they had a child in their early years.

Now seeing that the prince doesn't care about the woman, he regards Fujin as an "old companion": Fujin is a worry-free person, and he entrusts all the housework of the palace to Mrs. San's brother, and the Jin family is bitter and bitter in his heart.

In her early years, she was young and frivolous, and under the provocation of others, there was no shortage of third elder brothers who took eye medicine, and she also calculated to succeed Fujin.

She is a childless concubine of the palace, and if the two want to retaliate against her in the future, it is just a matter of one sentence.

So, she found her mother's brother, discussed it secretly, and finally thought of "borrowing the womb to give birth".

But she herself is from the palace, and her status is not high, if she lifts the people around her, she will have her own plans if she can't keep the other party together.

In addition, her brother was reluctant to be rich and noble, and finally the Jin family took his niece into the mansion.

That night, the one who waited for Yaerjianga was the niece of the Kim family.

Although Yarjianga is drunk, he is not completely confused, whether it is a concubine who still has charm or a virgin who has no personnel, he can tell more or less, but in the dark, he is only a girl arranged by the Jin family, and he is bowed on the string, so he laughs.

The next day, when he saw that the person next to him was the niece of the concubine who had invited him and Fujin, Yaerjiang immediately darkened his face.

Sleeping a maid, he didn't take it to heart: but the nominal "guest" he was annoyed.

How do wives and children see themselves in this way, are they not able to do it?

He also ignored Xiao Jin's and immediately called people to pass on Jin's.

Jin is the best at looking at people's faces, where I don't know that he is annoyed, he immediately knelt down, wept and pleaded guilty, miserable, all he said was the suffering of childless people: "Don't say that it is a slave who is not in the ranks, the best outcome is the green lantern ancient Buddha, just say a word disrespectful, even if the dignity is as Fujin, the prince is here, and there is the protection of the prince: if the prince is traveling west, don't you have to look at the face of the third lady... 

Speaking of which, she wanted Yarjianga to love Liugege the most, so she said: "Even if Liugege is wronged after marriage, and Fujin wants to stand up for Liugege, she has to beg the third elder brother and the third lady If Fujin has a biological elder brother, where will this be?" ”

I have to say that Kim did speak of Yarjana's heart.

It's not that Yongqian treats his stepmother disrespectfully, it's just that when Yongjia entered the door, he was already a half-grown teenager, and mother and son got along with each other a lot.

In addition, Yongjia's xìng son does not deliberately envelop the stepson, so that the mother and son are more respectful than close, and the closeness is insufficient.

Yarjianga believes that Yongqian will not treat Yongjia slowly, but he knows that Yongjia's behavior is most unwilling to trouble people, and he is afraid that even if he has grievances, he will not speak.

Xiao Jin is eighteen years old, xiōng shrug tún fat, and it looks really suitable for life and raising.

Seeing this, Yarjianga couldn't help but be a little moved.

It's just that on the Jin family's side, he didn't let it go, but he didn't deal with it personally, but sent someone to the upper room and asked Yongjia to send it.

When Yongjia heard this, he felt angry and ridiculous.

Although she is impatient with this, it is not easy to push it to her daughter-in-law, after all, it is not good for her daughter-in-law to discipline her mother.

So, Yongjia fined Jin half a year's money and sent her to the Buddhist hall to copy the scriptures.

As for Xiao Jin's family, she didn't want to be embarrassed, and she didn't bother to lift it, so she directly asked someone to clean up the wing room in the Jin family's courtyard and placed Xiao Jin's family according to the example of the general house.

Although Yarjianga felt that Xiaojin's "land was fertile and promising" and wanted to "cultivate one or two", he was somewhat weak in front of his wife.

Thinking about waiting, wait for the Jin family to come out of the Buddhist hall, the province deliberately looked for it, but it seemed that he looked down on the little Jin family.

Unexpectedly, before the Jin family came out of the Buddhist hall, Xiao Jin's had a happy reaction.

Winning the bid once.

Yarjianga was very proud, and already thought in his heart that if his daughter was left to the Jin family, if he was really lucky enough to give birth to a little brother, he would beg his wife to raise him on the grounds that the Jin family was misbehaving and was not conducive to the heirs.

Yongjia didn't care about Xiao Jin's pregnancy, but the two side Fujin couldn't help but care.

You must know that Prince Heshuo, according to the system, you can ask for three side blessings.

If the little Jin family gives birth to an elder brother and is raised by the Jin family, then in order to raise the identity of the little elder brother in the future, the prince may have to ask the Jin family to seal the side of the blessing.

This is unacceptable to both Ilgen Jue Luo and Xilin Jue Luo.

Similarly, they are not happy to put the little elder brother under the name of Chang Fujin and suppress their son. After all, the throne of the prince of the palace is undecided, Yongqian is not a sacred heart, and the same mother and brother are also implicated, and the remaining two elder brothers are from the two side Fujin, hoping for half and half.

After Yongjia had a son under her name, they were completely out of action.

However, in October, it was revealed that the Jin brother was relying on the power of the royal government to bully men and women and bully the market.

Yarjianga himself pretends to be a grandson, where can he tolerate the clothes and noses of the door?

The Kim brother was about to hit the knife edge, and Yarjianga directly sent him forty boards and fired him from his errand.

It's just that Yarjana is not brainless after all. knew that this matter was poked out, most likely because of Xiao Jin's pregnancy.

After some investigation, it fell on the head of Xilin Jueluo, and Yaerjiang breathed a sigh of relief.

He was very worried about how many sons there were, if the sons had such calculations, then how could he entrust his wife and daughter with peace of mind?

Xilin Jue Luo didn't know that his small movements were violent, or he went to Yaerjiang'a softly and weakly, and one of the eighth elder brothers had entered school, and he was not happy with Fujin, he would rather hide in the small courtyard, just to take Xiao Jin over to take care of him, not only to share the worries of his cousin and Fujin, but also to relieve loneliness.

When Yarjana heard this, it was very harsh.

These words are all eye medicine, and if you don't know what you hear, you will definitely treat Fujin as a domineering person.

Yarjianga said with a cold face: "Are you still lonely?" E-Niang's several companions have been released with grace, and you can still catch up with the line, and use their sons and nephews to check the coats under the master's door, how capable........."

Xilin Jue Luo's face turned white with horror, and he hurriedly denied it with a cry.

Yaerjiang Ah Buddha left with his sleeves, and Xilin Jueluo was directly grounded.

Ilgen Jue Luo went directly to Yongjia, the reason was also loneliness, but the words were more real: "Although I have six elder brothers, I have now gone out of the mansion, and I can only see each other in October... Fu Jin knows the rules of the clan, as long as the master is alive for a day, the slave will have to stay in the mansion with white teeth, looking at the spirit of the lord and the horse, it must be a long life in the early years, copying Buddhist scriptures, praying for the prince and Fu Jin, and passing the time. Now that I'm getting older, my eyes are huā, and I can't stand it after sitting for a long time, I can't wait for death in vain like this, if there is a little brother and Chuan Gege with me, it will be easier to pass the life If it is a child of the Xiaojin family, Fu Jin wants to raise it by his side, if Fu Jin does not plan to raise it himself, he also begs Fu Jin to help the slave intercede in front of the master, whether it is Xiao Gege or Xiao Gege, the slave will become his own."

Yongjia listened with a smile.

She knew how many people in the palace were watching at this time, and many people thought that she would not let go of this opportunity, but even if Xiao Jin's family really gave birth to a little brother, she didn't have that mind.

Why bother to turn the two filial and courteous stepsons of the third elder brother and the fifth elder brother into enemies for the sake of a child who will not only be good in the future?

"I have to prepare six grids to go out, and I also have to teach seven grids and eight grids, I am afraid that I will be powerless. Fang Fujin is willing to share his worries with me for the prince, and I want to thank Fang Fujin here. It's just that I don't know if the master should inherit the Jin family, I still have to ask. Yongjia replied.

Ilgen felt that Roche's heart was relieved, and the joy on his face became more and more sincere, and he got up to thank him.

Later, Yongjia mentioned this matter to Yarjana.

Yaerjiang has grandchildren, where are there still rare sons, but they want to take care of Yongjia's mother and daughter, so they are looking forward to adding a son.

Seeing that she was blindly virtuous and ignored her kindness, Yarjianga couldn't help but be depressed, and said, "Is Fujin confused?" Even if you don't think about yourself, you don't want to think about it? Multiple elder brothers, even if they don't attack the title, the knighthood is higher, and Zhen'er will be able to rely on multiple brothers in the future. ”

Yongjia was unmoved: "The third elder brother, the fifth elder brother, the sixth elder brother, and the eighth elder brother, which one is not Zhen'er's own brother?" For the sake of a small one, but to a few big hearts, why bother? Even if it is a biological son, there are still unfilial ones. The third elder brother is filial, and the third lady is also polite, I don't worry, so don't Zhang Luo anymore, the suffering that the master suffered in his early years, do you have to let the children suffer too? ”

Yongjia was resolute, and Yarjianga had no way, so he followed her arrangement. Move the little Jin clan to the courtyard of the Ilgen Jue Luo clan and let the Ilgen Jue Luo clan take care of it.

Because of this incident, Yongqian was open-mouthed, and when he faced Yongjia, he was both ashamed and ashamed.

After all, the clan has no heirs, and it is almost customary to raise a concubine by his side.

Yongjia didn't do this, but he was afraid that they would be embarrassed.

Yongjia didn't say much, but said: "Don't do your business, I have always liked to be quiet, and I can't stand the noise of children, so I bother to side Fujin......"

The third lady Namudu Lu is not good to say anything, but Yongqian said sincerely: "The sixth sister will be out of the cabinet in the next year, and the seventh sister and the eighth sister will also grow up here, and the love of the mother to treat her son will be cold, and the son will be engraved in the bottom of his heart, whether it is a little Gege or a little brother, as long as he is raised by his mother, his son will be regarded as a compatriot, and he will never be suspicious of this."

Yongjia still shook his head, and when he saw that Yongqian was going to say more, he said bluntly: "I don't like to do a lot of things, it's rare that life in the palace is still peaceful, so it's better not to make extraneous branches."

Speaking of this, she thought for a while and said: "The prince is now old, and his heart is a little soft, so it is inevitable to cherish the younger ones more, you are a son, be more considerate." Yi Bin is already getting older, and when Yi Chen is older, he can send Yi Chen over......"

Yongqian and Namudu Lu husband and wife get along, so far the four sons are all grandchildren, Yichen is the youngest son, just caught Zhou a few days ago.

Yongjia said this, which means that for the sake of the peace of the palace, he would rather raise his grandchildren than raise his concubines.

By mid-November, Xiao Jin's full-term gave birth to a little brother.

Ilgen felt that Luo had already prepared a nurse and a nanny, and the little brother hugged him as soon as he landed.

The ceremony of "washing three" was also organized by Ilgen Jue Luo.

This newly baked ninth elder brother, although he has not passed under the name of Ilgen Jue Luo, his biological mother still remembers that he is the Jin family, but he has officially become the adopted son of Ilgen Jue Luo.

Up and down the palace, a piece of harmony.

Although Yarjianga had some regrets, he also knew that Fujin had handled it more appropriately than himself.

Therefore, on the day of the full moon ceremony, although there are not many foreign guests, the whole palace is gathered together.

Unexpectedly, on a good day, there was Neishì who came to pass the decree, and double happiness came.

In addition to the astringency in his heart, Yarjiang's nose is also sour, if he hadn't forcibly restrained himself, he was afraid that he would have rolled down tears.

Yongqian City Mansion is not as good as Yaerjiang, when he heard the will, he was already stupid, but it was the Mudu Lu clan who pinched his waist, so that Yongqian woke up and thanked the emperor.

Nei shì took the rich silver seal and went back to the imperial court.

Unwilling to lose her temper in front of her children, Yarjana went back to her room under the pretext of being drunk.

Yongqian was stunned, unable to say what he felt in his heart.

The emperor pressed the palace's request to seal the fold, and made him, the eldest son of the prince, a prince, a prince, a prince, how could he not worry in his heart.

It's just that it's been a long time, and I can't help but be a little disheartened.

Not to mention others, even the people below, sī flattered the sixth elder brother and the eighth elder brother.

Now, the throne of the heir, who has been unsought for many years, has finally fallen to his head.

Seeing him like this, Yongjia was a little uneasy, and called the Namudu Lu clan to the front and ordered: "Joy and sadness, anger hurts the liver, you take the third elder brother back to the room, explain more and wait for the third elder brother to wake up, you go to the pillar incense to Dafu Jin, and later go to the imperial front to thank you."

Namudu Lu responded with a sense of humor, and led Yongqian down without mentioning it.

Because it is a full moon ceremony in the name of Ilgen Jue Luo, most of the female guests who come are entertained by Ilgen Jue Luo.

Yongjia called the fifth and sixth elder brothers, instructed the two of them to wait for their father and brother to accompany the male guests, and went back to the upper room by themselves.

When Yongjia picked up the curtain and entered the house, Yaerjianga had already cleaned his face and sat on the kang stunned.

Yongjia said: "Should the prince be ready to go out of the city?" ”

Yarjana nodded, still silent, not counting.

Seeing this, Yongjia did not cut him, and ordered people to prepare auspicious clothes and crowns, pearls and other objects Cao Hao's side, since the same day to get the news of King Jian's mansion.

In the end, it is the in-laws, and it is related to the future help of their son, Cao Hao and Chu Yu are very happy, and immediately make people prepare a gift list.

When Tianwei came back from duty, Cao Hao instructed him to go to King Jian's mansion to congratulate him on his behalf.

Tianyi responded in front of Chu Yu, but said to Cao Hao: "Father, the emperor summoned his son and instructed his son to settle the errand over there tomorrow and arrange shifts in the Qinzheng Palace."

Tianxuan is an inner shì guard, who is already in the front of the royal shift.

It's just because of the fourth elder brother's side that was arranged at the beginning of entering the shì guard, and most of the errands he received later were from the elder brother's side.

Cao Hao said: "What do you think of it yourself? ”

Tian estimated: "Most of it is because the fifth aunt began to be favored, and the emperor is willing to have a relationship with the fourth elder brother, but he doesn't want to get too close......"

Cao Hao nodded and said, "Since you understand, I won't be too wordy, Ansheng is an errand ..............."!
