Chapter 1182: Sending the Son
When Hongli reappeared at the Governor's Palace, it was already mid-June.
Several prefectures and counties with a large number of acres of winter wheat fields in Zhili have already harvested wheat seeds and shipped them to Shandong and Shanxi provinces.
His errand was over, and he was going back to Beijing on an errand.
I heard that the mother of the fifth son was in the governor's palace, and Hongli specially invited her to come out to meet.
Of course, the word "please" is also read because Zhaojia's is Cao Hao's elder and Li's is a concubine.
Otherwise, the mother of a concubine is really not in the eyes of him, the prince.
Although it was the first time they met, Zhao Jia's was not guilty, and the response was decent.
Looking at the gentle young prince, Zhao Jia's heart couldn't help but feel a little pantothenic.
However, thinking that Wu'er was just the prince's concubine, and the prince had reached the age of marrying Zhengfujin and Fangfujin, he would not be able to survive in the future, and he had some pity for Wu'er.
Hongli saw that Zhaojia's eyebrows and eyes were not very soft, but when he said that Wu'er also brought kindness, his attitude was a little warmer, so that people prepared a jade ruyi and four ends of tribute satin as a gift.
Zhao Jia's was satisfied, returned to the Li family, groped for Ruyi, and kept praising the fourth elder brother for his good demeanor, his surname was gentle, and his fifth son was blessed.
Li listened with a smile, noncommittal in his heart.
The Holy Ancestor is known as the "Benevolent Monarch" by the world, and this Hongli Brother was raised by the Holy Grandfather, and he does have a bit of the shadow of the Holy Grandfather. It's just that it's hard to say whether it's gentle or not, as the prince's elder brother, who will easily reveal his true face.
At this time, Hongli, who was praised by Zhaojia's family, became clumsy, and sat opposite Chu Yu with a flushed face.
"Fourth elder brother, I am older than you, so I can't say a few more words. This Huang family, what charter does the fourth elder brother have in his heart? Your status is noble, even if it is the palace maid around you, you will find out three generations. Although Huang's color is good, she is a folk girl in the end. Chu Yu didn't ramble and got straight to the point.
When Hongli heard this, he hurriedly said: "Big sister, don't worry, I have asked someone to check in Wuqiao, the ancestral home of the Huang family is in Wuqiao, and it is an old local household in Zhili...... Although Huang's father is cheap, he loves this daughter very much, and has been raising her in the inner house, and has not made her show up. ”
Chu Yu didn't doubt that the Huang family's female guard, such a look, if she appeared in front of people, she didn't know which one would be snatched away, where would it be Hongli's turn?
Although this Huang woman has already reached the end of the line, her words and deeds can be observed, and her surname is as gentle as a piece of tofu. If she is with the fourth elder brother, she doesn't have to worry about her pit the fourteenth master, but she has to pity whether he can continue to live.
"Listening to the meaning of the fourth elder brother, it has been decided to accept the Huang family. Although the status of the Huang family is low, the rules in the palace must be observed. In order for her to have a better life in the future, the fourth elder brother still arranged for the two grandmothers to teach her carefully. Chu Yu slowed down his voice and said.
There are so many boys in the house, and the Huang family has this appearance, Chu Yu is really afraid that someone will be involved. If Hongli sent someone over, she would be able to worry less.
When Hongli heard this, his face was happy, and he said, "Thank you, big sister, for your advice, and when I return to Beijing, I will arrange for someone to come over." ”
As for when this Huang girl entered the palace and what she would do, Chu Yu didn't say a word.
Although the two are cousins and brothers, they are different in age, so there is really nothing to say.
Hongli said a few words, then got up and said, "Big sister, I'll go see the Huang family." Lonely and pitiful. ”
Chu Yu listened, his eyebrows and eyes bent, called a mother-in-law, and led Hongli to Huang Xiaoyi's ......* front yard and official residence.
Looking at Hengsheng, Cao Hao was very reluctant.
This time, the fourth elder brother returned to Beijing, and Hengsheng also went with him. However, he has already taken a long vacation in the upper study, because the Khalkha people have arrived and are now waiting in the capital.
When Hengsheng returned, he was going to Mongolia with the Khalkhas.
Even if he sent Hengsheng back, he would not let this son go on without a name or a share.
When Hengsheng returns from Mongolia, he will be the son of someone else.
Although he knew that there was this, but now, Cao Hao is still a little uncomfortable.
This child was delivered by him himself, and he brought it back to the capital when he was an infant.
"I will arrange for Cao Yi and Zhang Yi to go with you. It's thousands of miles away, and when you go to a strange place, you always have to have some of your own people around. Although China and Bara are good, they are Khalkhas. Cao Yi has taught several good players over the years, and this time he brought them all to save him from being bullied. Zhang Yi acted sleek and transparent, you went over there, dealing with people, and when you were confused, let him help you weigh it. We don't have a Mongolian nursing home in our house, and I have already written a letter to the sixteenth master, asking him to help arrange some people. Save your entourage from being Han Chinese, and it's not cheap to go there. Cao Hao said.
After all, Hengsheng is not a righteous son-in-law, and he grew up in the capital, who knows if there is any danger on the side of the Khan's palace.
Within the family, the brothers still have to fight for money; Not to mention a quarter of Outer Mongolia, such a large territory, I don't know how many forces are staggered.
When Heng Sheng saw that his father was bothering about himself, he was very moved.
Cao Yi is the worship of the Cao family, and he is one of the best in the Cao Mansion, and he has always only been escorted by his father's side when he travels; Zhang Yi is one of Cao Hao's most important stewards.
"Father, the child can't stay for his father's birthday, here is to kowtow to his father in advance." Hengsheng said, his knees already knelt down, and he kowtowed three times sincerely.
Cao Hao got up, helped him up, and said, "Filial piety to your parents, not here." As long as you cherish yourself, go safely, and come back safely, it is the greatest filial piety to your parents. ”
Heng Sheng's eyes were red, and he said in a dumb voice: "Father doesn't have to worry about the child, the child will go early and return early, come back before the Double Ninth Festival, and accompany his father to ascend!" ”
From the capital to Khalkha, if you rush all the way, you can go back and forth in three months.
Hengsheng's words are true.
Cao Hao shook his head and said, "It's rare to go to Saiwai once, and you can take a look at the vast scenery of the Wanli grassland, so you don't have to be in a hurry." When you get there, if you are comfortable, you will have more time; If you don't have a good time, you don't have to force yourself. Although the status of a father is not as noble as that of the prince of Khan, he can also protect you. ”
"Well, the boy does." Hang Seng buzzed.
"Go and see your mother, she doesn't know anything about the Khalkha people. But after being away from home for a few months, you are also older, when you look like a gentleman, do you still want your mother to coax you? Seeing Hengsheng's "bar" and "bar" shed tears, Cao Hao said with a straight face.
"Son doesn't dare!" Heng Sheng lowered his head, quickly wiped his eyes, and retreated from the mansion with red eyes.
Cao Hao stood in front of the window, watching Hengsheng's figure disappear from the gate of the courtyard, and then sighed.
Jiang Jian happened to send the official document over, and when he saw Cao Hao's appearance, he was puzzled: "If the adults are really reluctant to give up the second son, why don't you leave the people behind and refuse the Mongolian side?" ”
Cao Hao smiled bitterly: "It's me who is greedy, thinking that Hengsheng will reveal the identity of the Mongolian king and grandson, it is always easier to live in this world than the adopted son of the Cao family whose parents are unknown." After all, I can protect him for a while, but I can't protect him for a lifetime. But he forgot that if he wanted to restore this identity, he would have to bear the responsibility of the king's grandson. He's getting older, so let him go on his own and decide what to choose. ”
In the end, there was a bit of melancholy.
"The second son is very attached to the adult and the wife, don't worry, the adult, this son can't run." Jiang Jian comforted.
Cao Hao nodded and said, "I've borrowed non-phosphorus auspicious words!" ”
In the backyard, Chu Yu's emotions were a little more excited than Cao Hao.
Although I got the news last year and knew that Khalkha would send people to Beijing to pick up Hengsheng, there was no movement until June, so I couldn't do it.
Whoever thinks, now is the time to part.
Cao Hao arranged a civil and military entourage, fearing that Hengsheng would suffer in front of the Khalkha princes.
Chu Yu was worried even more, from the hardships of the long journey, to the food after the trip, the people waiting around him, to the clothes in autumn and winter.
"Although the horse ride is fast, it is better to bring a carriage. If there is a post station, if there is no post station, you can also spend the night in the carriage. You can't really eat and sleep in the open. If you're sick, how can you play? Chu Yu said with tears in his eyes: "Your father's carriage, which did not show his identity, looked simple on the outside, but it was also built on the inside, and it was very spacious inside.
The speed of the carriage, where to catch up with the horseback riding.
Zasaktu Khan was in the north-northwest direction of the Qing Dynasty, thousands of miles away from the capital, and if the carriage accompanied him, the time on the road would be half more.
Despite this, Hang Seng still honestly responded to Chu Yu's arrangement.
His parents' love and affection, he didn't want to disobey, and he couldn't bear to disobey.
The fourth elder brother, the Huang family and the like, are nothing compared to the Hang Seng Tour.
Chu Yu sent someone to the official residence to invite Cao Hao and tell him his decision. She wants to return to Beijing with Hang Seng, arrange travel for Hang Seng, and then return to Qingyuan.
Cao Hao thought about it and did not object to Chu Yu's decision.
Now, if it is not Hengsheng who travels thousands of miles, but the brothers and sisters of Tianyou and Tianhui, Chu Yu will also arrange it in this way.
Although Hengsheng was brought back to the Cao family by him, it was Chu Yu who had fulfilled the responsibility of raising him for more than ten years.
Chu Yu's love for Hengsheng will never be less than Cao Hao.
The next time, when Hongli left the Governor's Palace, in addition to one more Chu Yu in his entourage, there was also more Tianyou.
Although the fourth elder brother was a little confused, he didn't study it in detail, just thought that his cousin and cousin had something to do and returned to Beijing.
When they arrived in the capital, Chu Yu's mother and son returned to Cao's Mansion, and the fourth elder brother took people back to the palace to restore their lives.
"Every time the Mongols return to Beijing, they look at the top and no one pays attention to them. In addition to their status, because they are richer than the clan, they don't want money in their hands. The second brother went to Mongolia as a guest this time, and he couldn't be too shabby, in addition to bringing a few more boxes of gold leaves, pearls, imperial history or something, and he could reward people casually. "God bless.
Chu Yu was thinking about how much silver money to bring to Hengsheng, and after listening to the words of his eldest son, in addition to the gold leaf, he asked people to find two boxes of jade.
Although he was reluctant to give up, Hengsheng still embarked on the road to Khalkha on the third day after returning to Beijing.
Chu Yu had to cry a lot, and he couldn't even do anything with God's blessing.
On the Governor's Palace, there is still a large family to take care of. After staying in the capital for three days, she set off to return to Qingyuan......
