Kangxi and Yinfeng wanted to come forward to comfort Yinzhen.

There are many things that can't stand the court, especially the arrival of the Raksha Kingdom's mission disrupted many preparations.Not to mention that Kangxi non-stop started to summon all kinds of ministers to discuss matters, even the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager and Concubine Yi were also busy.

To receive the Longevity Festival banquet of foreign envoys, the grade must be raised.Concubine Yi's head was as big as a bull's head, so she directly put forward the idea of ​​asking Concubine Tong Huanggui to move to Huangzhuang for arrangement.

It's a pity that, firstly, the imperial concubine is in poor health, and secondly, the concubine De is about to be pregnant, and the noble concubine Niu Gulu can't wait to split herself into two people and run on both sides, and thirdly, most of the previous preparations were made by Yifei.

As for Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong... as one of the four concubines, if they called out to Huang Zhuang, rumors about Concubine Yi might spread inside and outside the palace.

The empress dowager thought for a long time.

She finally looked up at Concubine Yi: "The Ai family looks at this matter and you have to take care of it, Concubine Yi, so that the Ai family can rest assured."

Not allowing Concubine Yi to refuse, the Empress Dowager added: "The Ai family will also ask Su Mala to help you, so don't worry."

A wry smile appeared on Yifei's face.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and give a blessing: "The concubine will definitely do her best to handle this matter properly."

Even with the help of Su Mara, it is not an easy task to raise the whole Longevity Festival to a higher level in the last ten days.

Concubine Yi, the four princesses and Su Mala gathered together to discuss with a serious face, while Concubine Zhang Jiashu in the backyard was also nervous.She twisted the handkerchief on her hand, stared at the clothes and jewelry on the table, and took a deep breath.

The Longevity Day will be adjusted from a family banquet to the emperor's reception of imperial courtiers and envoys, and the concubines and female relatives will accompany the empress dowager and the empress dowager to have tea and watch a play.This is a good thing as well as a bad thing. I originally wanted to get the emperor's attention by dressing at the banquet... Concubine Zhang Jiashu dared not use it.

If he loses face in front of his wife's relatives, even if he can escape from the Yonghe Palace, he is afraid that he will only be treated as a cold palace for the rest of his life.Concubine Zhang Jiashu would never do it, so she could only show it in front of the emperor.

"Has the emperor turned over his cards these days?"

"Reporting to my lord, the emperor has been resting in the study for three consecutive days."

"Then Master Yi...?"

"I heard that master Yi is very busy today, even the third princess invited young master Bu to help."

It is your own good opportunity.

Concubine Zhang Jiashu took a deep breath: "Zuilan, go and ask Eunuch Li for a favor... Mi Cui is here to help me change my clothes."

Kangxi finally finished processing the memorial.

He leaned on the chair and closed his eyes to rest, thinking about how to make up for Yinzhen. The easiest way is of course to find a small pet to distract Yinzhen, but it is not a good idea to compare with Erha... simple task.

Kangxi frowned.

Animals flashed through his mind. At this moment, Eunuch Li walked into the room along the base of the wall. He was holding a plate with both hands, and there were only three signs on it: "Slave pays respects to the emperor."

Kangxi opened his eyes and took a look.

To flop or not to flop?Do you want to discuss it with Concubine Yi?After thinking about it, he didn't go to Concubine Yi's place for several days, Kangxi nodded along the way: "Talk to Concubine Yi, I will have dinner with her later."

Concubine Yi got the letter.

She froze for a moment.I am so busy that the emperor still wants to intervene?What's wrong with this?It was Qingyun's reminder that made Concubine Yi think of Concubine Zhang Jiashu.

Concubine Zhang Jiashu kept a low profile.

Concubine Yi almost forgot that there was a person like her in the backyard.Qingyun described in detail what Concubine Zhang Jiashu had done recently, she was resting in the house properly, strolling around the yard from time to time - some palace people saw her stroking her belly.

It's just that Concubine Yi never pays much attention.

As for Bu Changzai, she was an honest person, and she was happy to be able to get along with the three princesses, but she actually pretended to be deaf and dumb throughout the whole process.Concubine Zhang Jiashu doesn't say that she is blind, she will never find out that Concubine Zhang Jiashu is pregnant...

"That is to say...the news of Concubine Zhang Jiashu's pregnancy hasn't spread yet?" Concubine Yi was startled: "It will take two months...? Three months?"

Qingyun nodded with a wry smile.

Concubine Yi fell into deep thought, she smiled and shook her head after a while: "Then give her a chance."

I don't know what Concubine Zhang Jiashu is thinking?

Do you feel jealous?Will it prevent Concubine Zhang Jiashu from seeing the emperor?Concubine Yi thought about it for a while and still couldn't understand Concubine Zhang Jiashu's thoughts, she could only secretly shake her head and suspect that she was another one who had been pregnant for three years and was stupid.

The little eunuch who rushed to the main courtyard to answer the question was fighting.

He knelt down on the ground, staring straight at the ground: "Master Yi said that he is preparing for the Longevity Festival, please the emperor... the emperor finds another place."

Kangxi: ...? ? ?

He blinked his eyes and belatedly understood what Concubine Yi meant.

Kangxi almost laughed angrily.

If he doesn't go to you, he can't go to others?Kangxi coldly ordered to drive to Bu Changzai, but the little eunuch cried sadly: "Bu Changzai is also here to help Master Yi!"

Kangxi: ...

His nose was almost crooked: "... Then, I remember there is another one?"

Liang Jiugong thought about it.

He reminded the emperor in a low voice: "There is another Zhang Jia who is next to Master De of Yonghe Palace."

"Well, what about Zhang Jia?"

"Young master Zhang Jia is not helping." The little eunuch thought for a while and quickly replied.

"...Then let her be." Kangxi couldn't remember what Zhang Jia looked like, and he probably was the gentle and gentle type...

He casually yawned.

Anyway, it is to tell Concubine Yi that I have a place to go.

Kangxi was in a good mood when he walked in.

But as soon as he called Concubine Zhang Jiashu, his face darkened instantly, and he turned his head and left without even taking a step into the room.

This action startled everyone.

What made Liang Jiugong's eyelids twitch even more was the makeup of Concubine Zhang Jiashu, which was three or four points similar to Concubine Yi.

Concubine Zhang Jiashu... so courageous!

Kangxi's face was gloomy.

He spoke slowly: "Do you think Concubine Yi instructed Concubine Zhang Jiashu to do this or did she choose to do it herself?"

Liang Jiugong: ...

How dare he say that?Liang Jiugong racked his brains, and it took him a while before he suddenly said a word: "Your Majesty, what this servant said is not pleasant."

"You said."

"Master Yi really wants to do this, Yikun Palace and Guo Guiren... This concubine Zhang Jiashu belongs to Yonghe Palace." Liang Jiugong said in a low voice.

Kangxi did not speak.

Liang Jiugong didn't dare to speak, he didn't speak until he saw the emperor with his hands behind his back blowing in the cold wind for a while, "Your Majesty, it's windy outside, let's go back to the house to rest?"

Kangxi shook his head.

He turned around and went to the courtyard where the elder brothers lived: "Go, go and have a look at Yinzhen's place."

The courtyard where the brothers live is very lively.

When Kangxi walked in, he saw that Yinfeng was there, and several people gathered around the stone table in the middle of the courtyard, watching their movements with extreme caution.

Seeing Kangxi arriving, the elder brothers saluted and greeted him in unison.Without waiting for Kangxi to ask, Yinzhen put her hands under Maomao's armpit and sent it to Kangxi in a showy tone: "Khan Ama, look!"

This is a young kitten.

It was only a little bigger than Yinzhen's palm, and it was a chubby ball.It has blue-gray hair all over its body, and its pointed eyes are like two crystal clear emeralds, and it looks unusually beautiful.

The rare color made Kangxi raise his eyebrows in surprise.

He turned to look at Yinfeng: "You picked this from the cat and dog room?"

This boy Yinfeng.

How dare you take the lead without saying a word to me.

Yinfeng waved his hands again and again: "This was not done by my son-in-law."

He really wanted to choose a beautiful color from the cat and dog room, but he hadn't let the cat and dog room pick it out yet!

"Where did this cat come from?"

"Reporting to the emperor, this is a kitten sent by Mr. Sasha, and it is said that it is also a unique cat breed in the Raksha Kingdom." Guerjia's guard replied respectfully.

"...? Rakshasa brought a dog and a cat this time?"

Kangxi couldn't laugh or cry: "Did they come to Qing Dynasty to travel?"

Speaking of this, Kangxi couldn't help frowning.

Don't think that the Raksha Kingdom has shown much harmony with the Qing Dynasty. The small disputes on the northeast border will never stop, especially in the occasional wars in Mobei, where the shadow of the Raksha Kingdom is looming.

"When Yinzhen is in contact with the envoys of the Raksha Kingdom, he should also pay attention to his sense of propriety, do you understand?" Although Kangxi didn't think that Yinzhen would be bribed, people who were not of my race would have a different heart, even though Yinzhen was still young. Small, but you can't guarantee that the other party will use the idea of ​​gaining favorability from a young age and reaping benefits when they grow up.

It's like Kangxi could accept Nan Huairen and Xu Risheng as officials in the court, but he didn't allow them to promote the Jesuits in the Qing Dynasty.

Now that I think of it here.

Kangxi told Guerjia's guard carefully again with a straight face: "Don't pay attention to these things."

Guard of Guarja: ...

He always feels that the burden on his shoulders is getting heavier and heavier, he won't wait until he returns to the palace and he has to be the babysitter of brother Jiu... _(:з」∠)_

But now Guarjia's guards have to be honest.

After hesitating for a while, he added: "Brother Jiu is very sensible, and all he asked was about the customs of the Raksha Kingdom, and he didn't mention anything else."

Kangxi shook his head: "I am worried that the envoys of the Raksha Kingdom are planning for the future." What he has to do is to kill this opportunity.

After thinking about it, Kangxi told Yinzhen again.

Yinzhen pouted a little dissatisfied.He put his hands on his hips very seriously: "My son will not be a traitor... full of traitors... pure traitors?"

Yinzhen hesitated.

For a moment, he didn't know which one to use to describe himself, so he stood there in a daze.

"...what a mess."

Kangxi's face was full of black lines, and he reached out to knock him on the head: "I see that you accept bribes so smoothly, maybe you will become a big corrupt official when you grow up!"

Yinzhen: ...?

He looked at Kangxi in surprise: "Khan Ama is not allowed to wrong my minister, when did my minister accept bribes?"

"Isn't this the blue cat?"

"This is not a bribe." Yinzhen replied confidently: "Khan Ama, do you know how big Erha's appetite is? He needs to eat five kilograms of ribs for one meal! How many catties of ribs are three meals a day? There are also management fees, Relief fees, child support fees, and children’s mental damage fees, all of which have to be converted into money and have to be collected by the two envoys, right?”

Is it possible that after saving Erha, and raising Erha so fat that he can be taken away by the envoys of the Raksha Kingdom?When Sasha and Fei Tian heard this, they couldn't laugh or cry, and with a wave of their hands, they asked Yinzhen to choose: money or a cat.

Yinzhen babbled a lot.

The elder brothers were amused first: "Yinzhen, how can this Erha eat so many things?"

"It's not the ninth brother, you're just like a little pig!"

"Your brothers are right. How can a Erha eat so much?"

Kangxi shook his head again and again.

He stretched out his hand and patted Yinzhen's forehead: "No nonsense—wait a minute, you didn't use these excuses to snatch your cat from the envoy, did you?"

The Qing Dynasty must be laughed to death.

Kangxi stared at Yinzhen with a stern face, but Yinzhen put on a stern face unwillingly: "I am not lying, I have checked the account book and counted it myself!"

As soon as this remark came out, the scene was completely silent.

The elder brothers looked at each other, and Yinti and others who were still laughing gradually stopped laughing.

Kangxi raised his eyebrows high.

He stared at Yinzhen in disbelief: "The ledger? Which ledger are you looking at?"

"It's the ledger on Zhuangzi!"

Yinzhen muttered: "It clearly says that Erha needs to eat five kilograms of ribs for a meal, and each catty of pork ribs costs 400 Wen. Do the math! How can you not ask the envoy of the Raksha Kingdom to return the money?"

Yinzhen spoke with confidence.

His eyes were as clear as water, clean and translucent, and Kangxi did not see any evil intentions or deceit in them.

If it wasn't for Yinzhen lying.

Who is that……?

Kangxi suddenly laughed.

He turned his head and ordered Liang Jiugong and Guerjia's guards: "Go and move all the account books from Zhuangzi yourself, and all the accountants will be imprisoned by me. If anyone resists...you will be killed on the spot."

Guerjia's guard trembled in his heart.

He should be respectful, followed Liang Jiugong and left in a hurry.

The atmosphere at the scene dropped to freezing point in an instant.

Yinzhen was a little restless, and wanted to run away while holding the blue cat.It's a pity that he was one of the parties involved, and Kangxi grabbed his neck on the spot: "Sit down honestly, I want to see what's wrong."

If Yinzhen dared to talk nonsense.

There was a trace of coldness in Kangxi's eyes—then it was time to hang out Yifei's mother and child.

Zhuangzi has a lot of account books.

Especially the various expenditures since this month are thick and thick.

"Where did you see Yinzhen?"

Kangxi's voice was obviously very gentle, but Yinzhen sneezed for no reason.He felt that the hairs all over his body were about to explode, Yinzhen trembled, then walked to the account book with the blue cat in his arms, and pointed it to Kangxi after looking at it twice: "Khan Ama, look. "

Not just Kangxi.

Yinfeng, Yinti, Yinzhi, Yinzhen, Yinyou and Yinhu also joined together at the same time.

It clearly and plainly read: "Dog, Erha, eat five kilograms of pork on the third day of March, and the market price is 40000 Wen."

Everyone fell into silence.

Kangxi's face remained unchanged, and he turned two or three pages, only to see that there were registrations of Erha's food on each page, and the prices were not much different.There are also records such as three and a half feet for dog clothes, one foot for dog shoes, and 50 taels of silver for dog bridle products.

Yinzhen frowned deeply.

He pointed to the line of dog clothes, shoes, dog reins and other products on the top, and said dissatisfiedly: "Yinzhen——did you ask the palace people to make dog clothes?"

Yinzhen shook his head without hesitation.

He tilted his head: "Didn't the fourth brother say that Erha likes to run and is not suitable for wearing shoes and clothes, so he doesn't need to do these things?"

Kangxi was even more angry in his heart.

He looked up at Guerjia's guards: "Where are the accountants?"

Guarja's guard looked serious.

He clasped his hands and replied: "The servants have already ordered them to be locked in the yard, and there are more than twenty guards outside to guard them without any mistakes."

"Very good." Kangxi's smile completely subsided.

He looked around - all the older brothers happened to be present, who is more trustworthy than the sons?Kangxi smiled slightly: "Come on, sort out all the books."

Brothers looked at each other.

They bit the bullet and started looking through the pages one by one. Yinti and Yinzhi were dizzy by the numbers above, and they didn't see any problems for a long time, while the three like Yinzhen, Yinyou and Yinhu were confused. It was much more sensitive, each of them frowned.

This ledger.

Outrageous!It's too ridiculous!

The first grooming only addresses the obvious issues.

But the number of these questions alone is frightening and jaw-dropping.

For example, there is one article: Concubine Yi bought tables and chairs for the Longevity Festival, and the quantity was directly marked as 1. This is the first time Kangxi heard that he would invite [-] guests for the Longevity Festival?

These 1 guests.

Don't you just blow up my house?
