Chapter 053 Another Year of Southern Tour

After Yongqi returned to the mansion, Minning threw him all the questions, but he didn't want to hide anything, he just said: "I have this plan. Xilinjueluo's family is full of talents, except for you, Ama, the rest are foreigners. It is not a good thing to be released as an official. It is better to take advantage of Emo's return to Beijing next year to report on his work and find an opportunity to let him stay in the capital."

Minning also understood what was going on. Xilinjueluo's family was a big family, but most of them were released outside, and very few stayed in Beijing.Now is the time for Yongqi to employ people, except for the people behind Concubine Yu, only people from her natal family are available.Although the Suochaoluo family was also a Manchurian family, they were not as good as before in Ruiyang's generation.She nodded and said: "I have already discussed this matter with Ama, right?" Otherwise, her mother wouldn't know about it.

"Just mentioned it a little bit." Yong Qi replied, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just heard what Eniang said." Minning said, "It's not impossible for the master to have this plan, but will Huang Ama fulfill the wish of the master?" She said that Qianlong was in some aspects It is indeed a bit out of tune, but it is very strict in terms of government affairs. Like the former concubine Ling and the current concubine Ling, she was so favored a few years ago. If her mother's family made a mistake, she would still be whitened.

"Let's see when the time comes." Even if you can't enter the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it would be nice to be able to return to Beijing.Yongqi knows that she can't interfere too much in the government affairs, so she still needs to be prepared in many ways.Thinking of Qianlong's will this year, he said again, "Emperor Ama has a decree to promote the sixth brother to beile, and the eighth and tenth brothers to be beile. The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs have already selected the location to build the beile residence."

"It's about time, the eighth younger brother is married, so it's time to split up." In April, Yongxuan married Zhang Jia in elder brother's house, and Minning went to have a wedding drink, "But since we're going to split up, Where does the emperor Ama plan to arrange for the eighth and tenth brothers to work?" Yongzhang was weak, so after working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a few years, he was transferred to the Lifan Academy, Yongxuan was in the Ministry of Industry, Yongqi was in the Ministry of Rites, Yong Rong is in the household department, it's time for Yong Xuan to leave the upper study and enter the court.

"Huang Ama means to ask him to go to the Ministry of Punishment." Although Yongxuan has a disabled foot and her academic performance is not very good, she is still a good helper.Qianlong originally wanted him to work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but in a blink of an eye, he thought that the imperial concubine Shujia was from the Jin family who was covered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It's not appropriate for brother to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so he was sent to the Ministry of Punishment. "As for the tenth brother, he has gone to the Ministry of Officials."

Min Ning said: "Since that's the case, I should also prepare the congratulatory gifts. After all, we are going to be ennobled and divided into mansions. As brothers and sisters-in-law, we should also express our hearts."

"You decide these things." Yong Qi stretched her waist, "I'm hungry, let someone pass the meal on."

As soon as September entered, news came from the palace that Mr. Fugui had died of illness.This noble lady entered the palace in 28 years. She was promoted to nobleman only a few months ago. She thought she was going to become a favorite concubine again, but she didn't want to die at such a young age. I can't afford the title "Fu".

"Where is it that she is not blessed, she was obviously killed by someone." Concubine Yu snorted and said, "But looking at what the emperor means, I don't intend to pursue it."

"He was murdered?" Minning asked, "Could it be that someone did it?"

"It was rumored in the palace that there was ambiguity between Mrs. Fugui and a guard, and she was caught right afterward. Although Mrs. Fugui cried out for her injustice, for the sake of the royal family's face, the emperor ordered her to be executed." Concubine Yu Gui He didn't intend to hide it, "Although it was announced to the outside world that he died of illness, everyone in the palace knows what it is like. I'll tell you what I'm talking about today, and you should keep it in your heart. Just don't tell others."

"Daughter-in-law never talks too much." This is the same thing again, why is it so similar to the matter of the peaches in Prince Rong's mansion.Minning asked, "The nobleman is really innocent?"

"Whether you are innocent or not is no longer important. I just don't want to say more about it to the outside world, but I am afraid that Fugui will not be able to enter the concubine's cemetery." Qianlong valued face. Even if Fugui did not do such an extraordinary thing, looking at Qianlong Temperament will still be rolled up in a straw mat and thrown into the cremation ground, and there will probably be only an empty coffin in the concubine's cemetery.Concubine Yu said, "The emperor's next step is probably to deal with Fugui's family. If their family members come to your door, you don't need to bother."

"I know." Don't cause trouble, she naturally understands.Minning lamented that this year was really eventful, and said, "Soon it will be Huangmama's birthday again, and Huangmama will probably have a big event to get rid of the bad luck."

"These are just for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to look at." Concubine Yu felt that Feng Shui was turning around when she thought of the current Ministry of Internal Affairs. In the past, the Wei family was favored like that, and even her natal family was also in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. , but now it's not like being overturned by a wave, and even Wei Qingtai has suffered and become a cripple, which is really satisfying. "By the way, I heard that the palace maids around Suo Chuoluo have made a lot of troubles again?"

Min Ning was tight-lipped about the matter of water peaches, but it was not impossible to talk about it in front of Concubine Yu, so she picked the key points and said: "It is suspicious that my wife is looking at the water cherry beside Suo Chuoluo, but for the time being We can't find out what her intentions are, so I temporarily spared her life. But my wife has ordered someone to keep an eye on her all the time, and take it down immediately if she finds any abnormalities."

"Although the Samala's family started with Empress Xiaoxian, they were not under Fucha's family. I'm afraid someone deliberately arranged them to enter the palace." Concubine Yu has been in power in the harem for many years and has a wide network of contacts. I will help investigate the matter. As for Suo Chuo Luo Shi, if there is enough spare money in the palace to raise an extra mouth, you can just treat it as an idler and don't bother with her."

Minning knew that Imperial Concubine Yu also valued the power and position of Suo Chuoluo's family, so she agreed with a smile: "Daughter-in-law is not a jealous person, as long as she stays in the backyard obediently and doesn't make trouble, it's fine for her to support her."

"It's best if you think like this, but if she really doesn't want to let it go, just come and tell me, and I'll make the decision for you." There are many ways to make people speechless in the palace. Her son is now It was the time when the emperor liked it the most, every step she took was cautious, she would never allow anyone to be foolish enough to drag her son into the water.The thing about Shuitao was obviously caused by someone throwing dirty water, it was not just a simple matter of jealousy and framing in the backyard, if she knew who did it, she would definitely not be able to forgive that person!

The Empress Dowager's birthday banquet is still so grand, and today is the first time that Hu Shi and Wan Liuha's as side Fujin participated in the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. Naturally, Minning had to make proper arrangements inside and out, so as not to lose face of Prince Rong's Mansion.After Suo Chuoluo was locked up for a while, she finally calmed down. Seeing that Yong Qi hadn't planned to let her move back to the Jingsi Garden, she even put her tail between her legs and behaved like a man who had changed her ways. She was looking forward to Yong Qi Can unblock her.

Min Ning tidied up Long Hua who was embroidered with group flowers, looked at the three well-behaved Fujin behind him, and took Mian Rui into the car first.Little Baozi is now one year and two months old, and he can already yell "Ama" or "Er Niang" vaguely, and he can walk a few steps steadily if someone leads him.Today Minning dressed him in a royal blue shirt with a small pocket watch hanging on the button. It was as round as a piece of dough, and Minning couldn't help kissing him several times.

Lan Hui is currently in the mansion, so she didn't attend. Although Minning has one less person to talk to, there are Mrs. Borzigit and Mrs. Zhang Jia sitting on one side, so there is no need to worry about not having anything to talk about.Yongqi is the only prince among the brothers, even the elder brother Yongzhang can't compare.However, Yongzhang has become bearish after these years. Anyway, his future was doomed in the 13th year of Qianlong, so he might as well act honestly and build a good relationship with his fifth brother.Mrs. Borzigit also understands that she and Minning are good friends, and Mian Yi likes Mian Rui, a younger brother, and it is also happy for a few women and children to chat and laugh together.

Mian Yi is also four years old this year. He is the only child in Xunjun Prince's Mansion and has no playmates on weekdays. When he sees his chubby cousin unexpectedly, he likes it very much. He teases Mian Rui with a soft mung bean cake.

"Looking at Mian Yi, I'm afraid I'm lonely. The third sister-in-law will give Mian Yi a younger brother or sister sometime." Minning laughed.

"Your mouth is getting more and more obscene." Mrs. Borzigit glanced at her, "The eighth brother and sister are here today."

"Fifth sister-in-law and third sister-in-law are sisters-in-law, don't worry about me." Zhang Jia's temperament is bright, and there are deep dimples on his face when he smiles.Her ama, Yin Jishan, is an important minister in the court and has a wide network of contacts. The marriage to the eighth elder brother is also to make up for the decline of the eighth elder brother's natal family.

Minning took out the handkerchief and wiped the crumbs from Mian Rui's mouth.The little bun had only grown a few teeth, so he still couldn't bite into these cakes, but the mung bean cake was very soft, and he ate half of it with a sip.But this is not his staple food yet, before the Queen Mother and the Emperor came, Minning asked the wet nurse to hold her down and feed her.

"I heard that Huang Ama intends to tour the south next year. Do you know, brothers and sisters?" Mrs. Borzigit told Mian Yi to sit down obediently and then opened up the conversation. Concubine and Fugui died of illness one after another, Huang Ama wanted to visit the people in the south and take a break."

"I heard a few words from Master Ba." Zhang Jiashi replied, "It's just that the exact time hasn't been decided yet?"

"It's coming soon, and the decree will probably be issued in a while." The talk of visiting the people is just an excuse for Qianlong to go out for fun.Although there was a drought in the south of the Yangtze River, there were several heavy rains in late summer and early autumn, and the disaster was not serious.So Minning didn't really believe how much Qianlong would like them about Concubine Shen and Mrs. Fugui, especially after Mrs. Fugui's death was so dishonorable.

Yin Jishan used to be the governor of Liangjiang, but Zhang Jia was born after Yin Jishan was transferred, so she had never lived in Jiangnan. She was curious and said, "Generally speaking, the scenery in Jiangnan is picturesque, but I want to see it with my own eyes." "There will be a chance." Minning smiled.This is Qianlong's fourth southern tour, right? By the way, in which southern tour did the empress hang up her remonstrance?Minning tried hard to recall, but couldn't remember anything clearly.
