A Chronicle of the Growth of the General Manager in the Qing Dynasty

After the fourth master returned to the mansion, he leaned on the soft couch in the study room, closed his eyes, and didn't know what to think about. This situation lasted until night, Su Peisheng hesitated on the side, wondering if he should ask the fourth master, Su Wen was also extremely hungry, but he didn't dare to bother Fourth Master, he knew how bad it was now...

Just when the two of them were hesitating, Fourth Master himself sat up and waved his hands. Su Peisheng hurriedly called someone in to help Fourth Master clean his hands, and served the meal again. After the meal, Fourth Master said: "Su Peisheng, tell me about the recent situation."

Su Peisheng hurriedly replied: "Master, the eighth elder brother, the ninth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother have all been in contact with Master Ling Zhu recently, but Master Ling Zhu pretended not to know, and did not join them. Running an errand, the people below reported that there is another group of people in Lord Ling Zhu's mansion to investigate."

The fourth master tapped the desk with his left hand. He was wondering if it was worth it. Although Ling Zhu's work has been a bit good recently, he was just a guard after all. The Niu Hulu family gave Shisi. If he wants to change, he has to use the important nails in the palace. He thought of the conversation between Er Niang and Shishi in the palace today, and he felt uncomfortable. When he was young, he used to watch He will still feel a little uncomfortable seeing this scene, but as he grows older and is disappointed again and again, he no longer longs for this mother-child friendship, but he didn't expect that the emotions he had already controlled would still appear today fluctuation.

The fourth master thought of some investigations about Niu Hulu's family, and suddenly thought that Ling Zhu's guards can be regarded as entering the army. If he manages properly, he may be promoted to another level. Then there is hope in the later stage. Thinking of this, he said: "Su Peisheng, use that person in the palace to say that the Niuhulu family must enter the master's mansion. If he can't enter, no elder brother's mansion will be allowed."

Su Peisheng hurriedly went out to act, while Su Wen who was staying in the study was already too hungry. The fourth master didn't know about this at all, he was still sitting on the chair thinking about things, and after more than an hour, he got up and said: " Get ready, Master will be in Fujin's room tonight."

As soon as Su Wen heard that the fourth master was going to enter Fujin's room, and that he could eat, he was happy, and his face also had a joyful expression. His performance just caught the fourth master's eyes, and the fourth master frowned After a while, I thought: Could it be that Su Wen has already got involved with Fujin? It seems that the master will find a chance to beat him, to let him know who the master of this mansion is.

If Su Wen were to know what Si Ye was thinking, he would definitely cry and cry for injustice. He was really hungry, so he had to endure it in the study so as not to be known by Si Ye. Sometimes when his stomach growled, he would move A kick or something to silence the voice, now I can finally eat, with a smile on my face of course.

The fourth master went straight into Sifujin's yard, and Su Wen immediately went to the kitchen to get his own food and started to eat. Although it was already cold, he still ate with relish. Of course, the speed was also very fast. After all, he There is still a night watch to go, Su Wen thinks of listening to the corner of the room whenever Su Wen thinks of the night watch, and his heart is filled with grief.

But this time it was beyond Su Wen's expectations. The room was very quiet. When he was standing outside, he didn't hear any sound. Su Wen thought it might be that Fourth Master was too tired recently and had no energy. Thinking of this, he smiled evilly in his heart.

Yonghe Palace

Concubine De cleaned her hands after serving the emperor, and said, "Your Majesty, the draft is almost done recently."

After the emperor cleaned his hands, he sat on the couch and took a sip of tea from the teacup, and asked, "Well, did you choose a few for the fourth and fourteenth this time?"

Concubine De waited for the emperor's words, and said: "The concubine chose a Geng family and a Su family for the fourth child, and a Niu Hulu family for the fourteenth. What do you think?"

"Niu Hulu's family? Is it the one from Ling Zhu's family?"

Hearing what the emperor said, Concubine De knew that Ling Zhu really had a name on the emperor's place, and that he would have a future in the future, so she said: "Yes, when the concubine went to see it, she found that this Niu Hulu family He behaves well and behaves like everyone else, and Fourteen has a temperament of jumping out, so the concubine wants to give the Niu Hulu clan to Fourteen to be a side Fujin, so as to be good at suppressing Fourteen's temperament."

The emperor drank tea, but did not respond, and asked after a while: "Which family are the two for the fourth?"

"Returning to the emperor, this Geng family is the daughter of Geng Dejin, the leader, and this Su family is the daughter of Su Shiqing, the principal. The concubine intends to point these two to the fourth child as a princess."

The emperor put down his teacup and asked: "Except for Si Fujin, who is the daughter of a Manchurian family in the fourth mansion, there seems to be none?"

Concubine De was startled when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "If the emperor doesn't say anything, the concubine really didn't notice, but it's true, there are really few people in the fourth mansion."

The emperor didn't pay attention to the change of Concubine De's expression, and only said after a while: "In this case, the Niu Hulu family can point it to the fourth child, and the Su family can give it to the fourteenth."

Concubine De held the handkerchief tightly, but she also knew that the emperor's decision had been made, so she would not change it, so she said: "The emperor's arrangement is the most reasonable, so this Niu Hulu family will make it for the fourth son." Side Fujin."

The emperor stood up and flicked his sleeves and said: "No, the side Fujin is too much, let her be a concubine Fujin, otherwise the old fourth Fujin will not look good. Although the old fourth Fujin has only one son under his knees, but It's also a good one, if you mention her more in the future, it will also make more flowers bloom in the fourth mansion."

Concubine De saw the emperor getting up, she also hurriedly stood up to tidy up the emperor's clothes and said: "I know, the fourth Fujin is indeed a good one, and I hope that they will have more children, and my heart will be at ease."

The emperor didn't say anything more, and left the Yonghe Palace after Concubine De tidied up his clothes. Nanny Li hurriedly supported Concubine De to sit on the soft couch, and said, "Your Majesty, how are you doing now?"

Concubine De closed her eyes and said: "It seems that I didn't make a good plan. I knew that I should choose a daughter of a Manchurian family for the fourth child first, but now it drags down to the fourteenth."

When Nanny Li heard this, she sympathized with fourth master in her heart. After a long time, it became fourth master who dragged fourteenth master down again. This mother did it.

Concubine De didn't know Nanny Li's thoughts, she said to herself: "Now the emperor has said so, this time I have to wrong my Fourteenth." Speaking of this, Concubine De suddenly opened her eyes and said : "Things are not right, the emperor has never paid attention to these things before, how could he know such details this time." Concubine De felt that this time it must be someone who blew the pillow wind in the emperor's ear , I wanted this Niu Hulu family, but in the end the emperor got annoyed, so he made the fourth brother cheaper.

Nanny Li could see a thing or two after being with Concubine De for so long, so she said: "From my slave's point of view, the emperor's arrangement of this matter is still biased towards the empress. Some people noticed that although the emperor didn't give it to the fourteenth master in the end, he gave it to the fourth master for the sake of his empress, so it can be seen that the emperor still favors you."

Concubine De thought about what Nanny Li said, and thought it was quite right, so she said: "Well, yes, anyway, I will give it to the fourth child, I think, I will go to see those beautiful girls tomorrow, this time Choose a few more for Fourteen, you can't wrong him too much."

-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------

With the passage of time, the draft finally came to an end, and the most noticeable thing in the order issued was that the emperor pointed out Niu Hulu Lingzhu's daughter to the fourth elder brother to be a concubine.

Regardless of what other people think, after receiving the order, the fourth master's mansion became a little chaotic. Although Lu Yi, the Song family and the Wu family are tall, they are not from high backgrounds, so facing Shu Fujin, Although I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, it is still quiet on the whole, but Wu Yagege is different. Since Wu Ya was accused of being the fourth master as Gege, she has been secretly fighting against Luyi. Concubine De pointed it out to Fourth Master, but Wu Ya believed that she was Concubine De's niece, and she was from a famous family, and she was just a queer person, but Niu Hulu's family became a concubine, and she immediately felt annoyed. Come to think of it, of course, these are Wu Yashi's own thoughts, but in fact she is just the distant niece of Concubine De.

The people who reacted the most in the mansion were Li Shi and Si Fujin, and Li Shi was better. After all, she was a side Fujin, and she was higher than Shu Fujin, and she had two sons and a daughter under her knees. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she could I can bear it, but Sifujin is different, Sifujin knows the truth, this Niuhulu family originally planned to point it to the fourteenth elder brother, but now it is given to the fourth master, there is a big problem here Well, Si Fujin is not afraid of the threat from the Niu Hulu family. After all, she still has a son, and this Fujin's position is also stable. She is afraid because of this incident, which makes the fourth master, the fourteenth elder brother, and the concubine De have trouble in their hearts. Pimple, that would be troublesome.

This imperial decree in the palace is just a small fluctuation for the Fourth Master's Mansion. After all, he is only a Shufu Jin, and he is not even qualified to enter the clan's genealogy. Grid is not much different, at most it is a bit higher in status.

The issuance of this imperial decree made Niu Hulu Lingzhu's house lively. After all, his daughter pointed out to the prince. Although she is a concubine, she has a good future. Still smirking and not responding, others will inevitably say that Ling Zhu is a fool, but only he himself knows that this imperial decree is a big trouble, because after this imperial decree, his daughter became fussy.
