My father-in-law is Kangxi

On the royal chariot, the thirteenth elder brother was holding a teapot and pouring tea for Kangxi.

Starting from 37 AD, every time the Holy Emperor went on a tour, the Thirteenth Prince was on the list of accompanying princes.

He has ridden on both chariots and boats.

I was apprehensive earlier, but now I feel very comfortable.

He knew his identity, he was just a little brother.

In front of his brothers, he does not strive for superiority and acts like a good younger brother.

Except for the fourteenth elder brother who was unhappy with him, the other brothers had no intention of arguing with him, including the prince.

Kangxi picked up the tea cup and drank it, then handed a question book at hand to his thirteenth brother.

The Thirteenth Brother took it with both hands and read it. It was a document from the Prince of Wengniu Special Division asking for his clan daughter.

The Wengniute Tribe, next to the Kalaqin Tribe, is more than 700 miles away from the capital. It is considered the closest tribe to the capital among all Mongolian tribes.

Brother Thirteen's heart moved.

His two sisters, one is thirteen years old, 16 years old this year; the other is fifteen years old, 12 years old this year.

Nowadays, it is popular for eldest daughter to marry late, and most people do not get married until they are over [-] years old.

However, one must first pay attention to the choice of consort.

The thirteenth elder brother looked at Kangxi with gratitude on his face and said: "Khan Ama..."

Kangxi said: "The five princesses are different. They have to serve the Queen Mother and cannot marry far away. It is difficult for the other princesses to stay in the capital. However, if the princess does not point out to the various princes and princes, but points out Taiji, she can return to Ning and stay in the capital..."

The thirteenth elder brother became more and more grateful and said: "It's all Khan Amma's kindness. The thirteenth sister is close to the third sister, so she can take care of her."

He knew well that he had two sisters, but this time he only had one grace to live in Beijing.

Since he had seen the marriage proposal from Prince Wengniu, the one he was interested in should be Thirteen Gege.

Prince Wengniutebu is 14 years old this year. Although he is between thirteen and fifteen years old, early marriage is popular in Mongolia.

By the time Thirteen Gege is eighteen or nineteen years old, the county prince will be sixteen or seventeen years old. If it takes a few more years, all the children of the common people will be born.

In this way, as the younger sister of Thirteen Gege, Fifteen Gege can choose the prince-in-law in Taiji, which is not honored by the various ministries.

Kangxi said: "Don't worry, let's wait for two years. In the past two years, Prince Wengniute will come to court, so you should pay more attention."

Brother Thirteen nodded in agreement.

Kangxi pondered and said: "After you have studied at the Ministry of Justice for a year and a half, go to the Ministry of War!"

Brother Thirteen showed surprise and said: "My son must learn to work hard..."

When he was in the study, his favorite class was also the art of war class.

It's just that he was born at the wrong time, the world is peaceful, and there are fewer wars among the Eight Banners. Otherwise, which prince has not dreamed of becoming a general king?
Kangxi also showed relief on his face and said: "You are not young anymore, and you have a family. When you become an Ama, you will understand my heart."

The thirteenth elder brother smiled and nodded: "My son must work hard and give birth to a little princess as soon as possible..."

Speaking of this, he thought of Thirteen Fujin and smiled more on his face.

The couple can read together and talk together. Although they have only been married for a short period of time, they still have some common thoughts.

Kangxi saw this in his eyes, lowered his eyes and looked at the teacup.

In the teacup is longan and red date tea that nourishes qi and nourishes health. The red dates float in the teacup.

He was happy to see his son get along with his daughter-in-law Qin Se, but he could not tolerate his son being too deeply influenced by his wife's clan.

He knew that he was a little repetitive and felt sorry for the Thirteenth Brother, but he would not really let the Thirteenth Brother get too close to Malhan, Yisang'a and others.

This time he was referring to Princess, and he specifically gave two instructions to Masika. The first thing was that the princess in Sanbeile Mansion should have a bookish aroma, and the second thing was that the princess here in Thirteenth Prince should look good. It is also necessary to have a higher birth status, and to choose from the relatives of several consecrated ladies and patron saint ladies.

Brother Thirteen is smart. When he sees the person he is referring to, he will understand what he means...

*
It took Shengjia eleven days to go to Mount Wutai and thirteen days to return. It was not until the last day of February that Shengjia arrived at Changchun Garden.

The princes living in Haidian have returned to Beijing one after another in February.

On this day, everyone gathered in Haidian to welcome him.

The weather has warmed up completely.

Inside and outside Changchun Garden, everything is green to the eye. The magnolias are about to wither, the apricot blossoms are beginning to bloom, and the peach blossoms are also blooming.

The third elder brother stood next to the eldest elder brother, looking better and better, and his body became taller and taller.

The fifth elder brother likes the cold rather than the heat. He looked up at the sun and felt that the top of his head was steaming.

"It's getting hot early this year. I don't know when I'll change my hat..." He muttered.

The seventh elder brother said: "The Ministry of Rites chose March [-]th."

The fifth elder brother said happily: "It's okay, it's okay. It's six or seven days earlier than in previous years. If I hadn't been wearing a warm hat, I would have had prickly heat on my head."

The tenth brother was nearby and answered: "The fifth brother asked someone to make some velvet hats. Choose the one with sparse needle holes, the one that is breathable and cool."

The fifth elder brother was moved after hearing this and said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to pack up two new hats when I get back." The twelfth elder brother stood behind and listened to his brothers talking without saying much.

The eldest brother, on the other hand, looked at the fifth brother and said, "You have lost a lot of weight, why are you still afraid of the heat?"

The fifth elder brother grimaced and said, "It's getting hot very fast this year. My body hasn't gotten used to it yet, and it's already making me sweat."

The eldest brother looked up at the sky and said, "It hasn't rained since the beginning of spring. It looks like there will be a drought in Zhili this year."

When the third elder brother saw this, he said: "I have just finished regulating the Yellow River, and the work on the Yongding River has just ended. If it doesn't rain, I don't know what to do..."

The fifth elder brother said: "It's still hard to think about it. They all say that the treatment is good, so it's time to reward him. It's not easy."

The fifth elder brother also patrolled the Yongding River a few years ago and knows the difficulties of river construction.

After hearing this, the third elder brother felt very sorry for the money that was allocated every year, and said: "The money has been allocated like running water these years. It's time to wait for two years and take a breather, otherwise the national treasury will be empty of money."

The money in the river went from [-]% to [-]%. The burden was too heavy.

Fortunately, Junggar was disabled a few years ago, otherwise there would be no expense to prepare for war.

The brothers chatted here and there, and the third elder brother who talked the most became the center of attention without realizing it.

The princes and ministers who were waiting to greet him stood behind him. They could not hear what the princes were saying, but they could see the general situation, and they were also weighing the weight of the third elder brother.

The eldest brother is taciturn, the seventh brother talks even less, and the twelfth brother doesn't speak at all.

The tenth elder brother looked at the third elder brother's spirit and felt that it was different.

He couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought about the distribution of those beautiful girls.

Is this because he is afraid that the princes will not care?
He glanced at his elder brother.

Since the death of Dafu Jin, the eldest brother has lost his spirit.

The confrontation between the eldest brother and the prince also changed with the death of Suo'etu and the hiding of the pearl.

Are you trying to push Third Brother to the stage?
Will it turn into a three-way melee?

Why did you choose the third elder brother and not the fourth elder brother?

Brother Ten felt that he seemed to understand some of the truth...

After a while, the emperor's royal chariot arrived. Instead of getting off the bus at the gate of the palace, he gave a few instructions, asking the eldest brother and third brother to follow, and then went to the small east gate.

The accompanying ministers and guards dispersed directly at the palace gate.

The prince's car drove directly back to the West Garden.

The fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother were riding horses and came down to talk to the brothers.

Brother Ninth, still in the carriage, got out of the carriage and muttered: "We should go home halfway, this is such a hassle."

The Holy Spirit stayed in Nanyuan last night and set off from Nanyuan Paddock to Haidian this morning.

The tenth brother smiled and said: "If the ninth brother is tired from riding, just take a rest and go back to Beijing in the afternoon."

After hearing this, Brother Jiu hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I think we're in trouble, so we'd better go home earlier..."

He had received a letter from Shu Shu home and knew that Shu Shu had taken the children back to the city a few days ago.

The fifth elder brother looked at the thirteenth elder brother, remembered a piece of news, and said, "Congratulations to the thirteenth elder brother!"

After hearing this, Brother Thirteen thought about Thirteen Gege's marriage, and then felt something was wrong. It was just the emperor's father's preference, and the final decision had not yet been made.

He asked curiously: "Fifth brother, what are you talking about?"

The fifth elder brother said: "Didn't my brother and sister tell you? Among the batch of beautiful girls selected in the first month of this year, the most outstanding one has entered your head office. She has a respectable background and is the grand-niece of Mrs. Baosheng!"

Mrs. Baosheng is Kangxi's nanny Guarjia.

Although Mrs. Baosheng is deceased, her relatives and descendants have repeatedly given her grace, and she is a decent family in the world.

Brother Thirteen listened with a smile, feeling a little confused.

His wedding was less than three months ago, so he was given the gift of Princess?

Didn't it mean that this group of beauties were born to give birth to royal grandchildren?

He remembered the words on the royal chariot, was this accelerating birth?

"what?"

The ninth elder brother was a little surprised. He looked at the twelfth elder brother and said, "Didn't these breast-protection families receive grace and exempt their women from the primary election? Why are they still on the list?"

The twelfth elder brother said: "The people chosen are not Mrs. Baosheng's husband's family, but her mother's family, so they are not exempt from selection."

The fourth elder brother already knew that the thirteenth elder brother had a special status, but he didn't expect that he was born like this.

Seeing that the fourth elder brother and others were busy with work, the brothers chatted for a few words and then all returned to the city.

The tenth elder brother got on the ninth elder brother's carriage and said: "A while ago, the eighth elder brother was ill..."
