My father-in-law is Kangxi

Brother Jiu listened and thought about the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but he didn't understand who Jin Yiren had offended.

Could it be Dong Dianbang?
It's just that Dong Dianbang's qualifications are far from being promoted to the head of the House of Internal Affairs.

It's been less than a year since he took office in Zhengwupin Langzhong.

The oldest doctor?

Doctor of the Punishment Division?
Brother Nine thought about it for a while, then left it aside.

Whoever he loves, anyway, he doesn't dare to make trouble in front of him.

North Garden, Queen Mother's Palace.

Except for the juniors like Haidian, the other four granddaughter-in-laws all came from the capital, and after a while, the Queen Mother would naturally want to keep a meal.

Everyone has lived in the palace for several years and knows that the daily food provided in the palace is monotonous, but the Queen Mother is obviously an exception.

The food provided by others is Japonica rice and white flour, but here the Queen Mother provides six kinds, with a special pastry room.

Shu Shu ate rice cakes filled with hawthorn made from Korean rice, spring pancakes mixed with buckwheat and white flour, and hair cakes made from japonica rice flour.

There is also a kind of gluten, which is specially provided for concubines and above. It is cooked together with pork belly, and it is full of soup, which is delicious.

Shu Shu ate to her heart's content, and was not worried that brother Jiu would be hungry.

With Tenth Brother here, there is no need to look for food elsewhere.

After the dining table was removed, the Queen Mother urged everyone to go back, not forgetting to warn them, "walk slowly on the road, don't walk too fast."

The old lady was frightened by what happened last time.

Although the two young elder brothers were fine, it was because of the third elder brother beside him.

If the third elder brother wasn't around at the time, or if his reaction was slow, something big would have happened.

Everyone responded obediently.

Nanny Bai had already brought out a brocade box, which was the Zhou Zhou ceremony ordered by the Empress Dowager.

Shu Shu picked it up and gave it to Bai Guo to hold.

Everyone left the North Garden.

Shi Fujin held hands with Shu Shu, and greeted the other sister-in-laws, "Sister-in-laws, come to my house?"

Si Fujin glanced at Shu Shu and said: "The ninth elder brother has appointed the tenth elder brother. Brothers and sisters, please go over. We will go home first."

Qi Fujin didn't come here with them, after hearing this, he realized that Brother Jiu had also come, and smiled at Shu Shu: "This is too clingy."

Shu Shu said: "It happened that he was going to Yuqian, so he came together."

As for showing affection or anything like that, let’s not do that.

Ominous.

Not every life is going well, so there is no need to show off on this.

Jiugege was beside him, and when he thought of his forehead, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

My brother-in-law is also very clingy.

Although it is not as good as Brother Nine and Sister-in-law Nine's heart-to-heart connection, life is considered satisfactory.

Ninth elder brother sent someone to watch over here, and when he knew they were coming out, he followed them out, and tenth elder brother also came out to see them off.

The two brothers walked towards the gate of the North Garden.

Seeing this, Shu Shu patted Shi Fujin's hand, and said, "I won't stay today, anyway, I'll see you again in two days."

Brother Jiu had met several sisters-in-law before, and now he gave Qi Fujin a gift. Then he looked at Jiu Ge and said, "There is a beautiful girl in the palace who is from the Tong family. Are you close to me?"

Jiugege shook his head and said: "Those who live across the room only know that their seniority is the same as that of the forehead."

After hearing this, brother Jiu put it down.

Anyway, for some reason, all the members of the Tong family who came from Shengjing gave "Grace", and the one from the capital kept one, who was not slippery from birth.

Ninth elder brother is a little worried, this farewell is no longer for thirteenth elder brother.

If you use the word Tong, if you are arrogant, you will be disgusted.

This is not the place to talk.

Everyone got on the carriage and left one by one.

Seventh Fujin wanted to talk to Shu Shu, but when he saw that they were in a carriage, he had no choice but to go to Sifujin's carriage.

"Fourth sister-in-law, it's boring to be alone, I'll sit with you..." Qi Fujin smiled.

Si Fujin nodded and said: "That's just right, I just wanted to ask you when you went to Hongluo Temple. We won't go in the first half of the year, and we will go to fulfill our vows in the second half of the year."

While speaking, she looked at Fujin Ba.

If Fujin is willing, she also invites Fujin to get in the car, so as to save Fujin from being alone.

Ba Fujin lowered his eyes, and was very quiet from the beginning to the end, as if making up the numbers.

Seeing her sister-in-law and sister-in-law getting close in twos and threes, she turned a blind eye.

Seeing this, Si Fujin didn't say anything.

Wu Fujin, Jiu Gege and the Shi elder brother and his wife stood on the corridor, watched everyone's carriage leave, and then dispersed.

In the carriage, Brother Nine beamed and said to Shu Shu: "It's done! Khan Ama rewarded Akdan and Niguzhu with the same things. Akdan's is a safe card, and Niguzhu's is a small incense box. "

After hearing this, Shu Shu also said happily: "Thank you for your hard work, the emperor is kind."

Niguzhu's is an ordinary item for a little girl, but Akdan's safety card symbolizes auspiciousness.

Brother Ninth said: "When the plate is delivered tomorrow, I'd better let Akdan practice, so as to get the safety card..."

Although I knew in my heart that seniors and young were orderly, I was not as impressed as I am today.

Even if it is from a compatriot, the identity and future are determined before and after birth.

Brother Nine felt sorry for Akdan.

Shu Shu didn't object this time.

For an emperor and grandson who can't inherit the title, the quality of the imperial impression is too important.

Even if he wasn't flattering in front of Kangxi, but when Kangxi gave him something, he would feel more comfortable knowing that his grandson caught Zhou just right.

When he returned home, Brother Jiu realized that the Queen Mother had also received a reward.

The husband and wife opened the brocade box, and inside was a four-square grid containing four kinds of gold wares.

The first one is a small golden bowl, the size of a child's fist.

Both husband and wife were stunned.

Shu Shu stretched out her hand to pick it up, it was so heavy that she couldn't bear a catty.

She looked at Brother Ninth and thought of the golden bowl she had when she first got married in 37. It seemed like a long time ago.

Ninth elder brother raised his eyebrows, put Liu Mama and others aside, worried, and said, "Fengsheng and the others don't know how to bite, don't break your teeth..."

Shu Shu thought about the habits of the three children, and only Nigu Zhu was willing to stuff things into her mouth.

She just laughed and said, "Only Niguzhu can bite, so he might as well leave two teeth marks like Master..."

The second one is the little golden horse, and the third one is the smiling Jin Maitreya. These two are heavier than the golden bowl, and they are solid.

The fourth item is a golden sachet with a lotus pattern, which looks simple and looks like it has been around for a long time.

The husband and wife closed the brocade box without saying anything else.

There are also four, this is the rule.

The next day, Jin Yiren, who received the order, personally delivered the plate and rewards.

Brother Jiu is not here, and Ji Hong is going back to Jiangnan. Brother Jiu took Cao Shun to have dinner with Ji Hong.

The person who came was the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there was a reward from the emperor, so Shu Shu came to the front yard.

It was the first time for Jin Yiren to see Shu Shu.

Although Shu Shu lived in Zhizao Mansion, Hangzhou like everyone else during Shengjia's southern tour the year before last, but men and women are different, and they have never met face to face.

Jin Yiren took a look and lowered his head.

Tall, good-looking, with soft brows and eyes, which doesn't match his reputation.

You know, this Jiufu Jin is a general who can pull a ten-strength bow, and she is said to have a strong temper.

Anyway, she is a noble girl from a high family, with a arrogant air. When she first married into the royal family, she was at odds with the Eighth Prince. As a result, the Ninth Prince and the Eighth Prince were alienated.

It's really impossible for two people to sleep in one bed.

Jin Yiren thought of Brother Jiu's gentleness before, felt that Jiu Fujin was gentle, and really felt that the two couples were not sincere.

There is a difference between honor and inferiority, he can only be respectful.

Shu Shu is also curious about the former Jiangnan weaving.

According to the traceability of the red scholars, this family is the prototype of the Xue family of the four major families.

It was the one withered earlier among the four major families, without official power, but still not short of money.

The father and son have controlled the Hangzhou Weaving Mansion for more than 30 years and are responsible for the royal procurement. How much money has been handed over during this process?
You must know that compared with the other two weaving prefectures, Hangzhou has one more customs.

Not only merchants were passing through the customs, but also envoys from Southeast Asia.

Even if they are not involved in the ginseng trade, the Jin family is not short of money, let alone ginseng...

Di'anmen Street, Baiweiju, private room on the second floor.

Brother Nine is the host, and Cao Shun is the company, seeing Ji Hong off.

In addition to being close to each other for several years, Brother Jiu also wanted to find out about An Qi's influence in the south of the Yangtze River.

"It's not been a few years since he went to Jiangnan. Your family's Korean ginseng should have been from him before, right?" Brother Jiu asked.

Ji Hong nodded and said: "From the second half of the year before last, he monopolized the sales of Korean ginseng in the south of the Yangtze River. Most of the merchant ships in Korea also have his part."

Brother Jiu asked curiously: "At his age, someone will obey him even if he holds a big banner?"

Ji Hongdao: "He not only has a post from Mingxiang, but also a post from Prince Kang's mansion. He is the guest of the governor's yamen and Yandao yamen."

Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows, it was so simple.

However, Jiangnan is rich and prosperous. For the gentry and the common people, this is the hand and the eye.

It doesn't matter whether he is a domestic slave of the Xungui family or a real Korean businessman.

This is taking advantage of the situation.

There are also slaves from the prince's mansion who go to blackmail the officials under the banner of the master's family, but the food is ugly, and they directly want to honor the money.

It's not easy for someone like An Qi to have such beauty.

Cao Shundao: "He went to Yangzhou in 36. At that time, he went to Jiangning to meet my uncle. He was a member of the Nalan family. My uncle had an old relationship with Uncle Nalan, and he even greeted the chamber of commerce in Yangzhou at that time. "

As a result, within a few years, he was promoted from a third-rate salt merchant to a first-rate salt merchant.

However, the salt he got was added later and did not account for the share of the previous salt merchants.

He still has backers in the capital, so naturally no salt merchant would be willing to confront him.

An Qi also knows how to measure, earning about the same amount from the salt business, and it's not too big, so she got away from doing other business instead.

Ji Hong raised a glass of wine and said, "Although I thanked Lord Jiu for the matter of the imperial merchants, I have to thank you again here. An Qi's intervention in the foreign ship would have the greatest impact on the Ji family. Master Jiu's glory has become an imperial merchant, so whether the Wanbao Building can be preserved or not is a matter of debate..."

Brother Jiu heard this, and said nahan, "Your family has been rich for several generations, and you even got the title of the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, and you almost got swallowed by a brat?"

Ji Hongdao: "My family has a false name, and my children study a lot, some of my clan members go into official positions, and most of my in-laws are eunuchs from the south of the Yangtze River. I don't have enough confidence to face the nobles in the capital..."

This is also the reason why the accompanying princes dared to go to Ji's house to blackmail him during his southern tour...
