The capital, the royal palace of Zasaktu County.

The gate has turned white, and it is announced to the world that this place has become a mourning home.

Hengsheng was a companion for the prince, and later became a guard, plus the surname is bold, and he has also made a group of friends.

It's just that Princess Khan's coffin is not here, and everyone is called a hanging sacrifice, but in fact, it is more to sell Hengsheng's face to give him a salute.

It was only at this time that no one remembered the identity of the princess of the Khan, and there was a palace of Prince Xian behind her.

The crowd was dissatisfied and gossiped.

Haven't you heard that Hengsheng has anything to do with Prince Xian's mansion?

Yes, I heard that Hengsheng was raised by the Cao family, if it was really the son of the concubine, how could he be in the capital?

Mother-in-law and concubine, nephew and uncle?

Some people make up the familiar things such as wives and concubines competing with each other, and the mother-in-law does not allow the concubine, so that the husband has to talk about raising the concubine elsewhere, and the identity will not be announced until he will become a child...... It is for this reason that there is no contact between the county king's mansion and the prince's mansion...... Hengsheng was dumbfounded when he heard many comforting and unfair words.

That little pity in their mouths is themselves? What endures humiliation and burden, and what sends people under the fence?

Hengsheng didn't feel that he had anything bad about the eldest son of the county king before he was canonized, he really couldn't stand it, so he confessed, closed his door, and no longer saw those guard colleagues who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

Because of the harmony of these people, no one thought of finding fault with Hengsheng after opening the mansion and not having anything to do with the Xianwang Mansion; On the contrary, some people began to say that Yan Huang was unkind and did not wait to see Hengsheng, the nominal nephew, so that the two governments did not have contact.

The rumors reached Yan Huang's ears, causing Yan Huang to vomit half to death.

He's the most embarrassing one, okay?

It is common for the clan to soothe Mongolia, but which of the prince's mansion has gone to a far place on the other side of Zasaktu?

It's just because his great-grandfather participated in the seizure of the heir, even if he was forced to commit suicide by Dolgon, he was also jealous of the royal family. His grandfather, Prince Xianyi, inherited the title of Prince at the age of six, and his father, Prince Xianmi, also inherited the title of Prince at the age of six, and he himself inherited the throne at the age of twelve.

Three successive generations of princes have been inherited by young lords, making Prince Xian's mansion have been separated from the center of the court for many years, and their power has declined.

The Xianwang Mansion is scheduled, and in the prince's class, it is the third, after the Prince Kang's Mansion and Prince Jane. Then, because his grandfather inherited the title at a young age and withdrew from politics, Prince Zhuang became the third person in the prince's class, and the position of Prince Xian's palace became the fourth in the prince's class.

The three-grid is like uncovering the last fig leaf, like the world to show that the emperor does not want to see the branch of Prince Xian's mansion.

Yan Huang really had no way, so he arranged for someone to impeach Cao Hao.

He can't impeach the sixteenth elder brother, right? The sixteenth elder brother has a higher rank than him, a higher ranking than him, and has always been popular in the clan.

Prince Xian's Mansion had no help in the clan, and it was clear that if it was against King Zhuang's Mansion, it would be isolated by the clan.

Unexpectedly, before the Cao family could react, the emperor's punishment arrived.

was nominally implicated by his cousin Yanxin, but in the words of reprimand, there were eight characters such as "eye-pointing and commanding, public and private use", and he was fined for half a year.

And his cousin Yanxin was dismissed from the title of king of the county, and the cousins of the other two rooms were also removed from the title of general.

The descendants of Prince Suwu, who once established countless martial arts for the Qing Dynasty, have been inherited for four generations, and only three titles remain, the prince of Yanzhi, and the general of Fengguo, two half-brothers of Yanhuang.

Yan Huang was really scared.

Worried, the Prince of Heshuo, who was in the prime of life, fell ill and was bedridden.

He had also heard about his cousin's encroachment on military supplies. Although there was no participation in the palace, he knew that his two brothers were also involved.

If it weren't for the emperor's scruples about the clan's reputation, I'm afraid that his brother's two general titles would not be able to be kept.

And he himself, in his early years, was damaged, injured his children and grandchildren, and lost his heirs, so far there is only one concubine in the palace, several rooms, no famous concubines, and no one in the palace to point people down.

A dignified Prince Heshuo, sick in bed, changed to other palaces, and countless people have already come to visit the door.

Prince Xian's mansion was deserted, and only a few palace stewards were ordered to come over to ask for peace.

Yan Huang's heart pulled out the cold, and his repentant intestines were cleared.

If he knew that his cousin's case was happening now, where would he dare to make these superfluous small moves as the face of the head of the palace?

Lying on the kang, he felt that everything was lost, and he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.

Yan Huang couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

He was so upset that he had ordered that no one should be disturbed.

I saw someone pull the curtain and come in: "Second uncle, Lord Zhuang is here!" ”

The one who came in was his brother Chengxin's third son, Yongjie.

Since he fell ill, Yongjie has been sent to serve the sick, and the deep meaning of it does not need to be said.

Yan Huang became more and more angry, he was still worried about the title of his sibling, and the other party hoped that he would die early.

How not to be discouraged, so treat this Yongjie is also indifferent.

But now the news reported by Yongjie is not allowed to be ignored by him.

He hurriedly turned over and got off the kang, and because he was in a hurry, he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.

Yongjie hurriedly stepped forward to help, and his face showed a little concern.

Yan Huang closed his eyes and slowed down, pushed Yongjie away, and called someone to come in to change his clothes.

At this time, the sixteenth elder brother had already arrived, and when he saw this, he hurriedly said: "I know that you have to toss, and you are not a foreigner, where you need to do this, lie down quickly." ”

Seeing this, Yan Huang was busy bending down to salute, but was supported by the sixteenth elder brother and pressed to the edge of the kang.

At this time, Yan Huang saw a person standing behind the sixteenth elder brother.

When he saw the person's appearance clearly, Yan Huang couldn't help but be stunned.

It is Hengsheng, the eldest son of the king of Zasaktu County.

Seeing this, the sixteenth elder brother took a step sideways, pointed at Hengsheng and said: "It's not that I'm stopping your uncle and nephew from getting close, it's just that Meng Ke is the son of Outer Mongolia after all, although he grew up in Beijing, he can be close to other palaces, but he is not too close to you, and he hasn't come to Xiangqin before." Now the rumors outside are too ugly to hear, I can't listen to it, so I will take him to greet you. ”

With that, he motioned for Hang Seng to step forward.

Hengsheng honestly saluted and said, "I've seen my uncle, please be safe with my uncle." ”

Yan Huang woke up after a while, and said with a forced smile: "Okay, okay, nephew get up quickly......"

Although he was really angry about Hengsheng's lack of contact with the Xianwang Mansion before, he didn't expect that the sixteenth elder brother would directly bring Hengsheng to the door to recognize his uncle.

He has already decided that Yongzheng is disgusted with Xianwangfu, just like a bird with a frightened bow, after listening to the words of the sixteenth elder brother, he actually feels that there are twelve points of truth.

Prince of the banner owner, colluding with the prince of the Khan of Outer Mongolia, what will the emperor think?

The original heart was full of resentment, and immediately turned into gratitude, and it was pleasing to the eye when he looked at Hengsheng.

Yongjie was beside him, but he was half angry.

Because of this Hengsheng, Prince Xian's Mansion has long become a joke. Prince Zhuang is so partial to his son-in-law, it is really too deceitful.

Although he is the concubine of the third-class Fengguo general, because his uncle has no heirs, he has already been tacitly asked by his father to come to the palace, so he also added to his heart, and he couldn't help but snort coldly on the side.

When the sixteenth elder brother heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Yongjie and said to Yan Huang: "This is ......"

Yan Huang glared at Yongjie and replied, "This is the third son of my nephew and brother, come and ask for peace." Saying that, he scolded Yongjie and said, "Don't hurry up and ask the prince for peace." ”

"My grandson has seen the sixteenth uncle, please ask my uncle to be safe." Yongjie hurriedly snorted and said enthusiastically.

When the sixteenth elder brother heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Although they are all bloodlines passed down from the same ancestor, not everyone is qualified to call him "uncle".

Yongjie's Lao Tzu Chengxin saw himself, and he was not qualified to be his "uncle", so Yongjie called him "uncle"?

Is it taking advantage of the opportunity, or is it arrogant and ignorant?

Yan Huang only felt that his temples jumped, waved his hand and said, "Go back quickly, tell you Amma, I'm all right, I don't need to be served......"

Yongjie still wanted to speak, but was scolded by Yan Huang for "don't retreat quickly", so he left indignantly.

Seeing that Yan Huang's face was flushed, the sixteenth elder brother was obviously angry, and after thinking about it in his heart, he knew the root cause.

It seems that the palace of Yanhuang is not peaceful, and maybe the old things of the Zhuang Wangfu will be reproduced again.

At that time, the old Zhuang Wang had no heirs, and his nephews fought for the title almost to the death.

It's just that Yan Huang is in the prime of life, will it be too early for them to worry about the title?

Looking at Yan Huang's style, he had no disgust with Hengsheng, and the sixteenth elder brother breathed a sigh of relief.

Hengsheng is frank and unrestrained, without the slightest guilt.

He had already heard his adoptive father say that his mother's two sons were dead and one disabled, even if he did not inherit the title, the title would not fall to the brothers, but mostly to the son of the favored side concubine.

This title was not for him to grab.

If the Xianwang Mansion blamed him, he would have nothing to say.

Today, the sixteenth elder brother brought himself here, but he didn't want the rumors to spread to his adoptive father and adoptive mother.

If he insisted on not recognizing his relatives in the Prince's Mansion, no one would press his head to come over, but he would have to question his upbringing.

Although he is not delicate, he can also detect people's likes and dislikes.

Prince Xian didn't have much dislike for him, so he naturally reciprocated the favor and added a little sincere respect.

Where can't Yan Huang notice it?

There are servants in the Xianwang Mansion who marry with Sangege, and there is also news coming back, and he also knows a little about the situation in the Khan's Palace.

Although the nephew's broken leg has something to do with Hengsheng, the biggest suspect is not Hengsheng, but the Mongolian concubine of King Khan.

Yanhuang is a clan, where do you not know these tricks of competing with concubines?

If Hengsheng hadn't been born out of thin air and inherited the heir of King Khan, I'm afraid that my sister and nephew would have been killed by that concubine a long time ago, opening the way for her own son.

Only then did he understand this, and he regretted it even more.

For the sake of face, get those little hands and feet, and get suspicious of Cao Fu in the end. Otherwise, if you accept Hengsheng's nephew briskly, through the in-law network of Cao Mansion, will you be able to get closer to other clans and palaces?

Thinking like this, Yan Huang's attitude towards Hengsheng became more and more warm, and he talked about family routines with him.

Hengsheng is also experienced in the palace, and he knows the sentence "Etiquette must be asked for by others", and his response was a little blunt, and he looked at the sixteenth elder brother from time to time.

The sixteenth elder brother knew that Yan Huang had not been easy these years, but he did not interrupt his enthusiasm, and looked at the two uncles and nephews with a smile.

Hang Seng was passed on by Cao Haoyan and has always respected the elderly.

Yan Huang is not only his nominal uncle, but also looks like a person who is fifty years old, although he is wary in his heart, but his face is not disrespectful at all, and he answers Yan Huang's questions honestly.

When Yan Huang saw this, he felt that this nephew also really wanted to be close to him, and he was overjoyed, and most of his upset was immediately dispelled.

On Hengsheng's side, there are some words that are running out.

He is really not familiar with this uncle, but why did this uncle ask about the housework of the Cao Mansion?

The sixteenth elder brother was beside him, and seeing that Yan Huang was becoming more and more dislike, he hurriedly "coughed" twice.

Only then did Yan Huang realize that he was so excited that he forgot the sixteenth elder brother on the side, and hurriedly laughed: "Sixteenth uncle, this, my nephew really likes his nephew, he neglected the sixteenth uncle, and asked the sixteenth uncle to forgive ......"

The sixteenth elder brother waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just that you are young, don't treat a minor illness as a major illness, it's almost enough, don't let the emperor ...... up."

After saying two more words, the sixteenth elder brother took Hengsheng to say goodbye.

Yan Huang wanted to send him off in person, but was drunk by the sixteenth elder brother, so he could only walk under the porch and watch the two go away...... After leaving the gate of the Xianwang Mansion, Hengsheng remembered something and said, "Lord, I am in mourning, is it too rude to come to explore the disease?" What annoyed the third elder brother? ”

There is such a taboo in Beijing, after all, sick people care about good luck and evil, and people with filial piety are not good to come to the door.

The sixteenth elder brother sneered: "Ignore him, he is looking forward to Prince Xian's serious illness." You see, Prince Xian is annoyed? ”

Hengsheng thought for a while and said, "Prince Xian looks a little haggard, but his spirit is fine. ”

The sixteenth elder brother smiled: "He is just sick of his heart, and his heart is sick, and he will be alive in less than two days." We don't treat him as a patient, he only rejoices; If he is really like his two brothers, and looks like he is preparing for the future, he will be annoyed......"

As the sixteenth elder brother expected, within two days, Yan Huang was "cured" and reappeared in the court.

It wasn't until this time that Yan Huang knew about it.

In addition to the rumors that he was dissatisfied with the sixteenth prince taking the heir for his son-in-law, there was an even more fatal rumor, that is, he was sick because of his cousin Gejue and his complaints against the emperor.

The moment he heard the news, Yan Huang only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and he was terrified to death.

Although it was caused by heart disease, he was indeed sick a few days ago and avoided the house. But his two good brothers are deaf? Haven't heard the rumors that this is enough to make Yan Huang lose his knighthood?

But no one thought to tell him.

He treated his brother like a sibling, but his brother didn't even have time to wait for him to die, wishing that he would be ......dismissed immediately.* On July 23, Cao Hao and his wife returned to the capital.

Since it is a "serious illness" that alarmed the emperor, of course he can't be alive after half a month. The prescriptions prescribed by Imperial Doctor Bai are still all kinds of nourishment.

It's as if Cao Hao's body is full of holes, and he has to rely on him, a master of the apricot forest, to hang himself.

In this way, even Yongzheng's side only felt that Cao Hao was seriously ill, and he sighed in his heart.

Yongzheng knew that he was afraid that he would change anyone, and after weighing the pros and cons, he would rather choose to flood the imperial tomb than blow up the bridge in front of the imperial tomb.

Cao Haosheng did so.

It's just because he is wholeheartedly public and has no selfish thoughts.

Such a courtier, if Yongzheng doesn't protect him, do you still have to punish him?

The three imperial histories who impeached Cao Hao had already been demoted by Yongzheng. If it weren't for the persuasion of a few university scholars, he would have dismissed a few courtiers who were willing to be the dogs of the clan and never hired.

Think about what a few scholars said, if the official is so heavy, I am afraid that the way of speech will be blocked in the future.

It's just that Cao Hao is here, and he still has to be rewarded, and all kinds of precious tonic are like flowing water, and they will be given to Cao Mansion when Cao Hao returns to Beijing; Imperial Physician Bai also received the will to stay on duty in Cao Mansion for the time being to regulate Cao Hao's body.

Cao Hao was sick and couldn't be invited, so he asked his cousin to give him a thanksgiving excerpt on his behalf.

Yongzheng personally summoned Cao Xiang, inquired about Cao Hao's condition, and asked about Li's current situation.

Cao Xiang had to say a few words of gratitude and praise, which was nothing more than the emperor's grace, after the careful conditioning of the white imperial doctor, his cousin's body gradually healed, and he could be cured with some more children; On my aunt's side, although she was frightened, she was stable under the persuasion of her cousin and sister-in-law, and now she is eating a long fast and praying for her cousin.

Yongzheng listened, and was not relieved in the end, and personally summoned Imperial Doctor Bai to confirm Cao Hao's physical condition.

Doctor Bai's previous excerpt took Cao Hao's illness very seriously, and this time of course he wouldn't slap himself in the face and say that Cao Hao was not seriously ill, and now he is almost recuperating.

He was afraid that others would find out the clues, so he had to say in a deeply touching tone, and praised Cao Hao again and again.

Although Lord Cao is seriously ill, his surname is resolute, and every time he faints, he grits his teeth and does not fall down, and does not show weakness in front of people...... Lord Cao devoted himself wholeheartedly, even if he was seriously ill and bedridden, he couldn't let go of flood control when he was in Shengjing, and he was strong enough to ask about flood control. After confirming that everything is okay, you can close your eyes and fall asleep...... Lord Cao's maid mother is very filial, and in order to be afraid that Mrs. Li will worry, she forcibly drags the sick body, cleans up the sick appearance, and looks like she is almost cured, but the amount of medicine in the back has to be doubled to support it...... In the end, Imperial Physician Bai almost had to believe that what he said was all the truth, and there was no exaggeration.

Cao Hao has done this, Cao Hao has done this!?

Only then did Yongzheng understand why there was some repetition of Cao Hao's return at the sticky rod.

One moment he said that he was very sick, and the other he said that he would be fine.

Although he did not suspect that Cao Hao was faking illness, he was somewhat puzzled.

Now that he listened to Imperial Doctor Bai's words, he understood why the contradiction came from.

Yongzheng only felt that his eye circles were hot, this Cao Hao, he really didn't misread it...... * Cao Mansion, Jiuru Courtyard.

Cao Hao pinched his nose and drank two bowls of medicinal soup in a row, his stomach rolled and he almost vomited.

Seeing this, Chu Yu hurriedly pinched a candied fruit and sent it to her husband's mouth.

Cao Hao held it in his mouth, only feeling sweet and silky, dispelling the bitterness in his mouth.

He looked at the two empty bowls for a moment and said, "When will it be restored to one bowl?" ”

Chu Yu glanced at her husband and said, "The old man is rushing back to Beijing, and his energy is not good, so he naturally has to be empty for a few days before he can slowly get better......"

She now knows the truth about her husband's illness, but if it alarms the emperor, it can only be regarded as a serious illness, otherwise she will be suspected of bullying the king.

Therefore, Chu Yu also cooperated with the various medical orders of Imperial Doctor Bai.

After all, it is true that her husband is not energetic, and it is good to take advantage of this period of leisure to have a good life and recuperate.

She and Cao Hao were secretly happy, fortunately, Imperial Doctor Bai and Imperial Physician Chen had an old relationship, and they were old acquaintances with the Cao family. Otherwise, if you change to Geng Jie's old lady, Cao Hao's situation will be embarrassing.

The two of them didn't know that Imperial Doctor Bai not only helped Cao Hao hide his true condition, but also gave Cao Hao a hard show to the emperor......
