My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1808 Disposal (rolling around asking for monthly tickets)

"You can't decide on marriages or dowries, but you can decide on the banquet. Are you the head of Shuncheng Palace?"

Kangxi was feeling angry, and when a few people came to report the matter, they realized what imperial power was.

Prince Shuncheng still had some hope, thinking that even if he was going to scold, it would be directed at Prince Kang first.

Kangxi was not confused and naturally knew that the two palaces had the same origin.

If Prince Kang really interfered in the internal affairs of Prince Shuncheng's Palace, he would not tolerate it.

After seeing the inside story of the incident and everyone's confessions, Kangxi looked at Prince Shuncheng and was speechless.

He had inherited this title for several years, and Prince Shuncheng had also gotten married, but it was still just a title.

Le Erjin was more restrained in his early years, but in recent years he has become more and more unscrupulous in his actions.

Although he was a deposed prince, he lived a more comfortable life than an ordinary prince.

Kangxi was very disappointed.

He didn't want Prince Shuncheng to be too capable, but he also didn't want him to be so incompetent.

In this case, the division of the Zhenghong Banner into small and large banner leaders would lose its meaning.

Prince Shuncheng was in panic and had already knelt down.

Kangxi stood up, walked up to him, and looked him over, as if he didn't understand why he, a prince, could be so cowardly.

"You are really unfit to be the prince. I will choose someone else to take the position!"

It would be fine if he was just in his teens, but Prince Shuncheng is already twenty years old.

Is there really such a filial son who, after having the legitimate right to take power, gives up power to others just because of filial piety?
Prince Shuncheng did not dare to be a quail anymore, he knelt on his knees and said: "I will not dare to be a foolish filial son anymore, and I will also advise my father well."

Kangxi said sarcastically, "Can you make the decision now? Will he listen to your advice? When he makes trouble next time, will you, the filial son, still be innocent and pitiful?"

Shuncheng County Prince had cold sweat on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and kowtowed, saying, "My slave father is ill. I will let him rest and recover."

The room fell silent.

Kangxi looked at Prince Shuncheng's forehead, and his face showed no emotion.

Prince Kang and Zengshou, who were standing nearby, both felt that something was amiss in the scene before them.

Prince Shuncheng is the son, and the old prince is the father. Do they want the son to imprison the father?

This way of handling the matter does not make Le Erjin innocent, but it will cause criticism.

Kangxi turned around and a flash of anger crossed his face.

He is an emperor, and he is happy that his subjects perform their duties and are in the position where they should be; but he is also Ama.

Le Erjin was wrong this time.

Prince Shuncheng is not as cowardly as he looks.

This is a wolf cub.

I don't know how long I took to weigh the pros and cons of this choice that came to my mind.

Kangxi was in a complicated mood. He sat back on the kang and said, "This time, not only did you lose face for Shuncheng County Prince's Mansion, but you also made the royal family a laughing stock. How should I punish you?"

Prince Shuncheng did not dare to raise his head, and kowtowed again, saying: "I am wrong, I will accept the punishment from my master."

Kangxi exhaled and said thoughtfully: "Prince Shuncheng is young and confused, and he has handled household affairs improperly. His salary will be suspended for three years as a punishment."

Prince Shuncheng put down his worries and said again, "Thank you for your tolerance, my lord. I won't do it again."

Kangxi did not wake him up. He looked at Prince Kang and said, "Go tell Le Erjin that my tolerance for him has come to an end. He is so sick that he has no face left. There is no need for him to show up again. Apart from submitting a memorial to his father's will, I don't want to hear any more news about him!"

Prince Kang bowed in response.

With Kangxi's words, Le Erjin could be contained without having to let Prince Shuncheng imprison his father, thus avoiding a new scandal in the royal family.

Kangxi looked at Zengshou again, his expression becoming even uglier, and asked, "Is it because I have been too gracious to the Dong'e family that you have forgotten your dignity?"

The Dong'e family and Prince Lilie's lineage are related for generations, and marriages are common, but this time it's too much.

An old widower who was uneducated and uneducated married a princess from a royal family as his second wife, which was against the rules of hierarchy.

Does that Selechi really have the guts to do that?
Zengshou could no longer stand and knelt down to apologize, saying, "It is my incompetence that has failed to properly discipline the tribesmen."

Kangxi said coldly: "At least you have some self-knowledge. Since you are incompetent and can't manage family affairs, I will let someone who can manage it! Qi Xi is older and more stable. If there is any trouble in the Dong'e family of the Zhenghong Banner in the future, I will talk to Qi Xi!"

Zengshou looked pale.

Although clan leader is just a title and does not involve the inheritance of the title, the emperor spoke with all his might and dismissed him as clan leader in just one sentence. How would his fellow clan members view him?

"What? I don't have the final say?"

Kangxi asked loudly.

Zengshou dared not remain silent any longer, and kowtowed, saying, "I dare not... I obey your orders..."

Kangxi looked away, looked at Prince Kang and said, "The second princess committed suicide. This is extremely unfilial. She will be expelled from the clan."

Prince Kang hesitated for a moment after hearing this and said, "Your Majesty, what about the funeral..."

Kangxi glanced at Zengshou and said, "Let the Dong'e family take care of the funeral."

This is to still recognize the validity of the marriage between the two families and preserve the sacrifices for the second princess after her death...

After the three knelt down to pay their respects, Kangxi summoned Zhao Chang and said, "Go and find out for me how Le Erjin got involved with the Dong E family? Is this marriage really just a marriage of convenience, or is there someone behind it?"

According to Mrs. Galin's statement, if the Heseri family had not asked to marry the clan's daughter, they would have wanted to marry the widowed aunt to Selchi as his second wife.

Selechi is just an old playboy, so why should anyone be concerned about his position as the second wife?
The one he was thinking about was just his brother Gal...

Housekeeping department.

The Ninth Prince was looking through the files of the Eight Banners Bureau, and the first one he saw was that of the Plain Blue Banner.

Guo Luoluo's home.

Ever since he learned that much of Guo Luoluo's family property was purchased through fraud from Shushu's maternal family, the Ninth Prince has been thinking about "returning the property to the original owner."

But this time it was naturally not Shushu's uncle's house, but his own home.

It would be a good opportunity to add new industries to the Beile Mansion.

After a whole morning, the Ninth Prince was dizzy with looking around, and he actually saw a few places that suited his taste. One of them was a farm in Haidian.

It’s just that the Eighth Lady’s great uncle did not take up the vacancy, and now he is just a lieutenant of the fourth rank, and there is not much room for spending money in this family.

There is no reason to sell off the property in the short term.

The Ninth Prince remembered the methods used by the Guo Luoluo family in the past. Are they setting up a gambling game?
The Ninth Prince immediately rejected this idea.

The Eighth Lady's grandfather used gambling to harm others, and in the end his son died in the gambling game.

It shows that God has eyes. We never know when retribution will come, so we should still accumulate good deeds.

"Brother Ninth..."

The Tenth Prince lifted the curtain and came in.

The Ninth Prince was puzzled and asked, "Why are you here? Do you have something to ask me?"

The two brothers came out together in the morning and have been separated for half a day.

The Tenth Prince said, "Prince Kang came to the clan residence just now and mentioned the follow-up of the Shuncheng Palace incident. I thought that the Ninth Brother must be thinking about it, so I came here to tell him."

"Tell me quickly, tell me quickly, have you punished Galin?"

The Ninth Prince became interested and urged.

The Tenth Prince had a complicated expression on his face, and said, "Neither Galin nor Selchi was punished. Instead, he was punished with Zengshou."

"Is this a fine?"

The Ninth Prince was a little confused.

The Tenth Prince said, "Zengshou is the patriarch of the Dong'e clan. All weddings and funerals must be reported to him."

The Ninth Prince said, "That's just what I said. According to the old customs of the Eight Banners, when a son gets married, he will be separated from his family and become two families. The father cannot intervene in his son's family affairs, let alone his brothers from the next room..."

The Tenth Prince said, "You also said that it was an old custom of the Eight Banners. Now that we respect etiquette, the weight of the clan leader will become more and more important in the future."

The Ninth Prince was not familiar with Zengshou. He only knew that he had average abilities and it took him several years to get a job.

The tenth prince continued, "Khan Ama has said that Zengshou should be dismissed as the patriarch and that Lord Qi should be appointed as the patriarch."

"what?"

The Ninth Prince was surprised and asked, "Is this a punishment to extend my life span, or a punishment for my father-in-law?"

This housekeeper has been hated by everyone for three years, not to mention taking care of clan affairs.

The Tenth Prince did not comment on the Dong E family's affairs, and continued, "Khan Ama confined Le Erjin, Shuncheng County Prince was fined for three years, and the Second Princess was expelled from the clan..."

The Ninth Prince listened and felt something was wrong, and said, "That's not right. They were all punished, but the people from the second branch of the Dong E family were not punished at all?"

The Tenth Prince whispered the inside story of the matter.

Mrs. Galin did not directly bully the Second Princess, but she did seem to be spreading rumors, but the real culprit was someone else.

After hearing this, the Ninth Prince frowned and said, "That person won't be punished?"

What is this thing called?

A wicked guest forced the bride to death, and both her husband's family and her own family suffered badly, while the culprit was unharmed.

Just because she is the prince's aunt, she has to consider the prince's dignity?

The Tenth Prince said, "The timing is wrong. If the Hesheli family is not good, they will be punished openly."

No title at all.

The older generation is dying or dying.

The younger generation were also cleared out from the Imperial Guard Office and the Guard Camp.

The Ninth Prince snorted and said, "It's not a good thing to save up like this. You will be severely punished when the time comes."

The tenth prince nodded and said, "Ninth brother is right. Khan Ama hates women who are not virtuous the most. Even if Changtai's title is returned in the future, Nara's imperial edict will be forgotten."

The Ninth Prince said: "What kind of punishment is that? Chang Tai has not done anything meritorious. His title is revoked. How can it be returned to him..."
