My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1224 Great Wisdom Nine Elder Brothers

When it came to Fifth Prince's letter, his style was different from the other two.

The fifth elder brother's handwriting is obviously a circle bigger, and the strokes are also a bit blunt, like a child who has not been enlightened for two years.

What he meant was very simple, tell Brother Jiu not to work too hard, or just hand in the errands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the more you work, the more people will be picky, it is better to do less or not to do it.

There is less "Sincerely".

There is no idiom, but it means that filial piety is also white filial piety, not being protected, but relying on oneself.

Fifth elder brother is annoyed.

He was not a fool for several years, he knew the so-called impeachment of the censor, if Khan Ama objected, he would suppress it;

snort!
Don't look too filial.

Brother Jiu looked at it twice before handing it to Shu Shu, and said: "You said the year before last that you were the tenth inner beauty, look at me, Fifth Brother is the inner beauty."

Shu Shu took it over and looked at it, not surprised.

She said: "Fifth Brother was brought up by the Empress Dowager. Thinking about what the Empress Dowager does, I know that Fifth Brother is not a fool."

Ninth elder brother knew that fifth elder brother's advice was good, but he still shook his head and said: "Master is different from fifth elder brother. Fifth elder brother is far away from the imperial court, and no one dares to ignore him. The queen mother is his backer and confidence; master here, I still want to be the old ten's reliance."

He arrived at the desk and wrote back letters to the three elder brothers.

It's just that this time he has to go to the post station, so he knows what can be put on paper and what can't.

Here, Elder Ten, he mentioned that Niguzhu has already teethed, and Brother Fengsheng should be about the same. The Prince's Mansion has prepared a lot of molar sticks and bibs, and asked them to send someone to get them; he also asked about ten Fujins. For physical conditioning, you can ask the doctor Jiang to come forward.

For the fourth elder brother, he mentioned that the Chaohe River he saw on the road actually originated from Rehe. He would ask people to check along the river to see if they can sail. It can be transported by water.

Brother Jiu didn't just talk about it, but heard from Cao Yueying that there was a North Canal Transport in ancient times, and a section of the water of this Chaohe River was also in the water system of the North Canal Transport.

When I arrived at the fifth elder brother, the ninth elder brother told him that what is unclear in this world is the grace of childbearing and the grace of upbringing. He only looks at his own children and thinks about the hardships of his parents, so he has to bear it. Be tolerant of the younger ones, as well as the elders.

After the letters of the three of them were finished, Brother Jiu hesitated for a moment, and then wrote to Yuqian again.

This time he wrote in more detail. Yesterday he went to the Great Wall and climbed high to look far away; today he went to the Chao River and watched fishermen set up their fishing nets, and he was full of knowledge.

I was just worried about my family, worried that the emperor's father would be sullen about other people's affairs, worried that the Queen Mother and Concubine Yi would be uncomfortable when the season changed, and was also thinking about the vaccination of the seventeenth elder brother. I was a little worried. Finally, I mentioned that everything was fine. He has been sleepless for a few days, but after drinking the anticonvulsant and sleep-promoting medicine, he is already fine. There is also Fujin watching over his diet and daily life, just like at home, please don't worry about the emperor, and so on.

By the time the four letters were written, it was time to light the lamps.

Xiaotang brought people over to set up the meal.

The main course is a fish head pancake.

Although the fat head fish was not caught, the grass carp was too big, two and a half feet long, eighteen catties, and the head weighed three and a half catties, so Shu Shu still ate the fish head.

But I didn't cook a lot of fish.

Because according to the judgment of the head of the fish, this grass carp has been grown for seven years, and the meat of the fish is tough, not as tender as that of grass carp under three years old.

Therefore, a two-jin grass carp is used to boil the fish next to it.

There is also a plate of dry-roasted crucian carp, which uses half a catty of crucian carp the size of a palm.

There is also a loach and winter melon soup.

There are two kinds of river prawns, spicy river prawns, and fried shrimps with leeks.

Shu Shu ate the cake in the fish head, feeling satisfied.

Although it is not a fish head with chopped peppers, it does not taste as tender as the fish head of fat head fish, but this kind of fish head braised in sauce is also delicious. It uses pork belly as a side dish, and the fish meat is full of oil and has a meaty aroma.

Brother Jiu just ate the shrimps and said: "This is delicious, it's easier to eat than chicken and duck."

Shu Shu heard this, and said: "Longkodo's private property, there is a shop in Nancheng, which is at the entrance of the vegetable market. I will ask someone to take it back and make it a seafood stall."

As soon as Brother Jiu heard it, he understood, nodded and said: "That's good, it will be convenient to arrange people to go to the river or seafood, and it will be convenient for the mansion to eat."

Otherwise, it would be eye-catching to send someone to Tianjin to pull seafood.

This is not the case in the palace, but their prince's mansion is like this, and it seems extravagant.

Allotments outside the palace.

Zhang Tingzan sat opposite Cao Yueying.

When they first left Beijing, the two ate and drank separately, and they were all the same.

But Miyun stayed here for a few days, being idle and bored, the two of them also got together to talk or have tea, and the meal began to be eaten together.

There are four dishes here for two people, fish head tofu in casserole, braised fish, dry fried small river prawns, and garlic cabbage.

The two of them ate modestly, and they didn't eat much. There was a one-foot plate in front of them, and they only ate a small half.

When the dining table was removed and tea was served, both of them drank tea to digest.

Cao Yueying has only been here for a short time, but she can also see that the Ninth Prince's Mansion is very different.

He hesitated for a moment, and said: "Jiuye has been reluctant to enter the court for so long, because he wants to serve Prince Yu?"

The so-called matter of Prince Yu means that during the time of Emperor Shizu, the eldest son of the emperor died, and the second son of the emperor was already the actual eldest son.

At that time, the emperor Shizu promoted the Confucian etiquette, and when choosing this place for the emperor's heir, he also tended to "establish a descendant if there is a descendant, and establish an elder if there is no descendant".

As a result, when Emperor Shizu asked about his second son's aspirations, the young Prince Yu replied "willing to be a virtuous king".

In Cao Yueying's view, Brother Nine has advantages in the economy, so he can just walk in the household department, give full play to his strengths, and accumulate achievements.

Here in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there is nothing to do with the country, and it can't compare with the six departments.

The emperor Shizu has few sons, so no one can snatch Prince Yu's "virtuous king", but there are too many princes today, brother Jiu wants to be a virtuous king, but he can't get it.

It's okay right now, but when the throne changes, it will be a head behind other princes.

Scholars all have a kind of paranoia and belief that scholars die for their confidants.

Right now, it's not enough to say that Brother Jiu has become their confidant, but this kindness also makes the two of them really plan for Brother Jiu.

Zhang Tingzan shook his head and said, "Master Jiu is not good at planning. This is a disadvantage as well as an advantage. Although sticking to the House of Internal Affairs may seem lazy, it may not be a disaster..."

He was a little ignorant of the world earlier, and he didn't have too many predictions about the court situation, but now that his father is about to resign, the root cause is the Zhan Shifu of Zhan Shifu who was hanging up a few years ago, and the former master of the East Palace.

He also read history books, but the politics of this dynasty are different from those of previous dynasties, and he did not expect the struggle between imperial power and power reserve.

Who is the emperor is not only the emperor, but also the master of the Eight Banners.

No one can shake the imperial power.

According to the Manchurian custom, the child is more precious than the mother.

But as long as I think about it, I am also shocked.

Emperor Taizu abolished two heirs.

Both Guanglue Baylor and Prince Lilie, who were more precious than their mothers, lost their reserves.

The one who won the throne was Emperor Taizong from the concubine.

It can be seen that the child is more expensive than the mother, and it is not absolute.

Now the elder brother is the eldest son, and the tenth and fourth elder brothers are the noble sons. It's hard to say what will happen in the future.

The prince has no foreign aid.

The prince's uncle lost his title of Duke of Cheng'en and was idle at home.

The prince's father-in-law has long since died of illness, and the clan of the prince's concubine also released more local officials, so they are not involved in the affairs of the capital.

The two old Confucian scholars looked at each other, knowing what was going on.

Cao Yueying said: "Jiu Ye is on good terms with Zhi Jun Wang, Si Bei Le Mansion, and Ten Princes..."

Huh?
Is this great wisdom? !

Qin lost his deer, and the world chased it.

When the East Palace loses its Sacred Heart, these three are the most qualified to succeed as Crown Prince.

Cao Yueying looked at Zhang Tingzan with sparkling eyes, and said, "Master Jiu, is this wise and foolish?"

Zhang Tingzan took a sip of tea, looked at Cao Yueying and said, "Needless to say here, Master Shi and Master Jiu are friends of the general manager; King Zhijun and Sibeile had no contact with Master Jiu in the early years. The current situation is probably Because of Jiufu Jin."

He has been in the prince's mansion for a long time, and he has also heard people mention the bad popularity of elder brother Jiu when he was a child.

All the changes started after the wedding.

After hearing this, Cao Yueying fell into deep thought, and asked for a while, "Is this Jiufujin's plan?"

Although Confucian etiquette restricts women, they are not old and corrupt, and they really despise women.

Throughout the dynasties, there is no shortage of outstanding women who have left their names in history.

Zhang Tingzan didn't nod or shake his head, and said, "I don't know, I can't see it, I can't guess it, maybe it's a coincidence, maybe it's intentional."

Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, it was to move Brother Jiu to the shore, a safer location.

From the merits of the dragon, which courtier has not thought about it?

When Cao Yueying thought that Dong E's family was the emperor's confidantes, the capital of Zhenghongqi, and the in-laws were from the line of Prince Li Lie headed by the clan, he couldn't help being shocked.

It's just a matter of great importance, and it's not something that can be discussed with others, so he lowered his eyes and looked at the teacup.

Even if Master Jiu doesn't fight on his own, if he stands up in the team, he will be the real power and deliberative king in the future...
