My father-in-law is Kangxi

The next day, Brother Jiu and Shu Shu reported to Mrs. Uncle and went back to the city.

Prince Abahai and Fujin arrived in Beijing yesterday, and the husband and wife went to visit.

Not only for the sake of Elder Brother Shi, but also for the sake of Shi Fujin.

The year before last, Shu Shu was pregnant and had a bad mouth, so she got pickled wild apricots and various kinds of beef jerky from Shi Fujin, all of which were sent by Aba Haibu.

Although after receiving the gift, Shu Shu and Brother Jiu prepared a gift in return, but they still remember this kindness.

"At this time, it's not easy to welcome them with a banquet..." Brother Jiu said.

The situation in Taiji has not improved, and the king of the county and Fujin are still busy replacing their heirs, and they are not in the mood to feast.

But fortunately, the restaurant started to open under the guise on the sixth day of the first lunar month. Brother Jiu sent He Yuzhu back to Beijing yesterday, ordered two tables at Baiweiju, and sent them to the inner hall.

"The days are still long. In the future, the county king and Fujin will come to Beijing more often. When the time comes, they will hold a banquet in the mansion, and they will be respectful." Shu Shu said.

To change heirs, the king of the county and Fujin must come to the capital to take care of the second son.

Also, the second son was not raised as an heir. In order to make a smooth transition, most of them would ask for a marriage. Marrying the daughter of the noble family will only make closer contacts with the capital in the future.

Brother Jiu thought about it, and it was also the same reason, and said: "Then arrange it next time."

The carriage of the two went directly to the inner hall.

The chief on duty in the inner hall got the news and came out to welcome him. He was in his thirties and looked very smart, and he spoke simply, saying: "Greetings to Lord Jiu, greetings to Fujin Jiu, Master Shi and Fujin Shi arrived in the morning. Abahai courtyard."

Brother Nine motioned He Yuzhu to reward the purse, and said: "It's hard work for the New Year's Eve. Master brought Fujin here to pay New Year's greetings to the county king and Fujin."

The chief took the purse and personally led several people to the Abahai Hall.

*
In the front hall, the king of the county was talking to Elder Brother Ten, and a young man in his twenties was sitting at the bottom. His facial features looked more delicate than ordinary Mongolian youths, his face was clean, and he did not start growing a beard like his peers. , does not have long hair on his head like the Mongolians, but has a blue scalp with some stubble that has just been born.

"Master Ten, Enhe was sent to the temple when he was ten years old. After studying Buddhism for ten years, he can only speak Mongolian and also learned Mongolian and Sanskrit. In the future, he will have to take shifts in the capital. I want to give him Please ask a teacher..." the county king said.

Enhe is the name of this young man, he is the second son of the county king and the elder brother of Shi Fujin.

Elder brother Shi did not expect this second uncle to be in such a situation.

Neither Manchu nor Manchu.

This is pretty much taught from scratch.

He glanced at the king of the county and understood why the king of the county chose this way.

Taiji has a son, but the older one is born from a concubine, and the one born on the other side is still a baby. It is hard to say whether this can be cultivated.

Even if the son in front of him has to be taught from scratch, it is easier to raise than the infant.

The tenth elder brother said: "Dianyi in my house is from a pen post style, and he is proficient in Mongolian and Mandarin. When the time comes, come and teach the second brother how to speak."

The king of the county nodded and said: "Apart from this matter, it is his marriage. I want to submit a proposal to propose marriage. Is this appropriate?"

If the eldest son dies due to a short-term accident, then there is no need to be embarrassed, just let the second son take over.

But right now, he was lying there alive and dead, so he couldn't do that. That would be an insult to the eldest son.

Elder Brother Ten thought for a while, and said, "Come on, every year there are proposals for marriage proposals from various ministries."

The days of Zong Nu are not all easy.

There are two advantages for Fumeng to marry far away. One is that Fumeng, the daughter-in-law of the side and concubine, will be conferred the same title as the first daughter.

For example, Guizhen Gege, as the concubine daughter of the county king, is a family without a noble, but if she is Fu Meng, she can be named the county lord like the concubine daughter of the county king.

The second is the annual salary, which is more than that of the daughters of the clan who stayed in Beijing, and there is also the dowry bought by the court.

In this way, it is also a way out for the daughter of Wujue, with status and property.

Up and down the Eight Banners, they are also quite familiar with Aba Haibu.

The natal family of the late Noble Concubine Yijing and Concubine Duan Shun also gave birth to the only Mongolian prince Fujin.

In front of the imperial court, they are not as respectable as the Horqin tribe, but they can be counted among the tribes in central and western Inner Mongolia.

Especially the ten Fujin are still showing off their wealth.

In this way, in the palace of the royal family, it is not difficult to point out a Ge Ge who is willing to caress.

The king of the county heard this, and said: "Then I will hand over the booklet. If you get the grace of Bogdakhan, then let Enhe get married in the capital, and spend a year with Gege in the capital."

According to the annual practice of various ministries in Inner Mongolia, they arrive in the capital at the end of September every year and leave Beijing in mid-February, so that they can live in the capital for half a year.

Enhe took Fujin to live there for several years in turn, and also studied in turn.

*
In the back hall, the temple king Fujin's sideburns were all white, and his plump cheeks were much thinner, looking haggard.

But her eyes were bright, she looked at Shifujin, and said: "Don't delay any longer, move to the imperial garden today, marry to the capital, your honor comes from the ten princes, be a filial daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, and become a The tenth prince is proud of Fujin, not holding him back."

Shi Fujin hugged the arm of the county king Fujin, nodded and said: "Well, I'll be gone in a while, Ehe, don't worry, both the queen mother and the emperor like me, and my sisters-in-law are also close to me. My life is free and casual. It's because Shi Ye loves me, so I will take good care of Shi Ye."

The county king Fujin showed relief, nodded and said: "Okay, okay, Ehe's Buyin is a good girl who is blessed, and her life will be happy and healthy..."

As the mother and daughter were talking, a steward came in and said: "Fu Jin, Ge Ge, the Ninth Prince has brought the prince and concubine over, and the prince asked Fujin to greet him."

After hearing this, the county king Fujin and Shi Fujin hurriedly got up to greet them.

The king of the county and the tenth elder brother got the news, knowing that the ninth elder brother and his wife had come, and they also went out.

At this moment, a group of people are exchanging greetings in the yard.

The king of the county took the arm of the ninth elder brother, very close, and said: "Only Bogda Khan can raise such a warm and generous prince. I will take my wife to thank the ninth prince for his gift. The delicious food makes people feel relieved." After the fatigue of the journey, good wine makes people forget their troubles. From now on, you are the most popular guest of our Abahai Department. I look forward to seeing you and Fujin, and let my wife and I have the opportunity to be the landlord. Yi, present our Abahai’s kumiss for our distinguished guests.”

Brother Jiu is not used to being so close to people, especially a drunkard.

But he didn't push the county king away.

This is unlucky, it's almost like losing a child in old age.

He sent He Yuzhu yesterday to give the table noodles, along with eight altars of shochu, eight bags of tea, eight boxes of pastry, and eight pieces of cloth, which can be regarded as a supplementary New Year's gift.

The king of the county spoke clearly, but he smelled of alcohol all over his body, and his footsteps were a little weak. It was obvious that he drank a lot of wine in the morning.

What is there to care about with Jiumengzi?
Brother Nine has become a son-in-law himself, and he knows how to coax his father-in-law. He is also willing to take care of his brother's face and coax his brother's father-in-law.

Brother Nine was very supportive, and happily said: "Abahai has a warrior like you, and an amiable elder like the county king Fujin. When there is a chance, I will definitely take Fujin to see the vast scenery of Abahai. "

The king of the county was overjoyed when he heard this, and he didn't let go anymore. Elder Brother Shi still helped him by the arm and said, "Father-in-law, it's not good for brother Jiu to stand outside, let's go inside and talk!"

However, the king of the county refused to leave, and greeted the servants beside him: "Where is the hada, I want to present the hada to the amiable and respectable Ninth Prince."

The man next to him left and brought two blue khatas.

Holding the khata in his hands, the king of the county raised his hands above his head, leaned forward, and sang congratulations in Mongolian.

Brother Jiu followed the northern tour a few times and knew the Mongolian etiquette for receiving the khata, so he lowered his head, received the khata, and put his hands together to express his thanks.

Prince Fujin and Shi Fujin have arrived.

The county king Fujin followed behind the county king, and also gave Shu Shu a khata.

"Beautiful and kind princess, may Changshengtian bless you with all the best..."

Shu Shu also received a khata, and was welcomed into the inner hall by the county king Fujin and Shi Fujin.

When Shu Shu was served with milk tea, Prince Fujin said: "Thank you, Princess, for the banquet yesterday. The lord and I are very grateful."

Shu Shu said: "You are welcome, we have also received a lot of gifts from Fujin in the past two years, it is reasonable to accept the wind and wash away the dust, but now you are busy here, we don't want to disturb you, just wait for the warmer time, You and the county king are also free, and we will hold a banquet at the prince's mansion."

Prince Fujin said: "I have heard from Bu Yin that you have taught me a lot in the past few years. This kind of patience and love cannot be wiped away by gifts. This kindness, I will always remember with the prince."

She already knew that the foreign goods store under her daughter's name, which was making a lot of money every day, was built with Shu Shu's suggestion.

There are other kinds of help, too many to count on ten fingers.

This time his son was poisoned by charcoal, and he also got a lot of good medicine from the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

This is due to the brotherhood of the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince, but also the generosity and compassion of Shu Shu, the prince and concubine.

Shu Shu glanced at Buyin and said: "Being able to be a sister-in-law and living next to each other is the fate between me and Buyin. You don't have to be too polite about Fujin, Buyin has also helped me a lot. I went out with our master a while ago. It was Buyin who took care of the children for me, if I want to say thank you, I would also like to thank Buyin."

One set of one set, what the county king Fujin said was more sincere, not a scene.

Shu Shu glanced at Buyin again, remembering the meeting with Elder Brother Shi before the ceremony.

At that time, she was the elder brother Kua Shi who changed his ways, but today, with the passage of time, she has become the Fujin Kua Shi who has changed his ways.

Light and shadow intersect, as if yesterday.

The warm and hospitable county king Fujin did not neglect the guests because his son was ill, and sent a sincere invitation, wanting to keep Shushu and brother Jiu here for lunch.

Shu Shu declined.

Looking at the state of the county king just now, the wine has not yet woken up, and drinking is not good at noon, Brother Jiu's patience can't last until that time.

Earlier, brother Jiu also refused the invitation of the king of the county under the pretext of official duties.

The husband and wife probably estimated the time, sat for about three quarters of an hour, and then left.

This time, he brought ten princes and ten Fujins with him.

The two of them have ordered the Tenth Prince's Mansion to pack up their luggage and send it to Haidian.

The two of them didn't need to go back to prepare their luggage, they just followed Shu Shu and Brother Jiu out of the capital...
