Four elder brothers take the script of salted fish

Perhaps it was because the road from Hangzhou to Fujian was rough and winding, and it was already the end of April when Kangxi came back, and it was only a month before the prince left the court to study in April.Almost as soon as he returned to the Forbidden City, the first thing Kangxi did was to arrest Nalan Mingzhu and ask about it.

As the father of Nalan Xingde, Mingzhu naturally has a good appearance.Walking on the street at a young age is like a young lady throwing flowers in a pavilion, but the older she is and her son is outstanding, Mingzhu has always been a horizontal development trend.

But this time it was different.

Seeing that Mingzhu lost weight from a sesame seed cake to a deep-fried dough stick, even Kangxi felt a little guilty.Of course, in an instant, he threw the mistake on Suo'etu's head - this Suo'etu knew the trouble of finding Mingzhu when he had nothing to do.

Mingzhu didn't notice the abnormality in the emperor's sight.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and honestly explained the arrangement one by one.None of the officials who can make it all the way to the sky is an idiot, let alone this matter is related to the prince's first appearance.

Speaking of the whole process, even the picky Kangxi had to explain that Zhu was doing well.Satisfied, Kangxi looked at Mingzhu with more gentle eyes, and asked with a little worry: "Aiqing has been exhausted for the past few months, and I will give you five days off. You should rest and refresh yourself later."

Although he didn't say it directly, Mingzhu could hear it.

He responded with a smile, and then touched his face happily: "I thank the emperor for your kindness, but since the slave lost weight, even Fujin's eyes when looking at the slave are much better."

Isn't it?

The previous Nalan Mingzhu was not to mention the edges and corners of her face, but she was about to become a fat steamed bun.Now the edges and corners are sharp, the eyebrows and eyes are heroic, and the gestures and gestures are full of the charm of a mature man. It is not an exaggeration to call him a middle-aged handsome man. It is no wonder that Pearl Fujin is overjoyed.

Kangxi: ...

Looking at Nalan Mingzhu's happy and silly look, he felt so helpless.

Kangxi hurriedly waved his hand to let him go.

He sorted out a bunch of official duties that had to be dealt with, and sneaked out his sons, whom he hadn't seen for four months, for an assessment.After the assessment was over, the atmosphere in Dongnuan Pavilion suddenly relaxed. Kangxi, who was sure that his sons hadn't dropped out of school, was in a good mood, so he pulled them over one by one to ask about the recent situation.

The third elder brother Yinzhi was the first one.

He obediently answered Kangxi's question, and finally asked a question: "Ama Khan, where's the elder brother?"

As soon as the words fell, apart from Yinzhen who already knew the truth through the system, the gazes of the other elder brothers turned to Kangxi at the same time.

The prince's second brother's car has already entered Yuqing Palace.

But when the brothers left Elder Brother's house, they didn't see Elder Brother's chariots and horses, which was really worrying.

The scene of brothers and sisters made Kangxi satisfied.

He smiled and replied: "Your eldest brother has stayed in Fujian, and I don't plan to let him return to Beijing in three to five years."

There was an uproar when these words came out.

Not to mention Yinzhi's eyes widened, even the fifth elder brother Yinqi, sixth elder brother Yinzuo, seventh elder brother Yinyou and eighth elder brother Yinhu were all shocked.Especially Yinhu, his small mouth was opened into an O shape, and he looked at Khan Ama in surprise.

The clan of the Qing Dynasty was not as good as that of the previous dynasty.

Especially the princes, they can't go out of Beijing without purpose, let alone stay in a place as far away as Fujian for three to five years.And the eldest brother never went to Fujian in his previous life, and he should have never stayed in Fujian for many years!

How could Khan Ama let his eldest brother stay in Fujian?

Yinhu was shocked in his heart, and he was a little dumbfounded.

Kangxi was very proud.

Looking at the shocked expressions of his sons, he smiled and talked about the ins and outs.When Kangxi saw the sea-going ship in Yinti's study, he really thought it was quite valuable, but he didn't expect that after arriving at the Fujian Navy and handing it over to Shi Lang, he couldn't move his feet.If it wasn't for being the emperor, Shi Lang might not even have the spirit to entertain him, but it made him dumbfounded.

If he hadn't known that Shi Lang had such a temperament, Kangxi might have gotten angry in public.Just like this, Shi Lang's sons were also terrified and trembling, especially the eyes of the second son Shi Shilun.Thinking of this, Kangxi smiled cheerfully: "Shi Lang's family education is quite strict, and his sons are all outstanding. I am very relieved to entrust my elder brother to him."

Brothers were taken aback when they heard that.

Yin Zhi and You Rong Yan beamed with joy and said with a beaming smile, "Khan Ama, it seems that the help of Er Chen and the fourth brother has also contributed a lot."

Kangxi nodded.

Looking at the envious eyes of the sons in front of him, he said softly again: "Next time I will take you to Fujian on the southern tour to see your eldest brother."

The elder brothers stretched their brows and eyes immediately.

The bold Yinzuo has already leaned forward and pulled Kangxi to mutter, telling Khan Ama not to forget.

On the contrary, Yinzhen was thoughtful.

He suddenly raised a question: "Ama Khan, does Concubine Huimu know about this?"

Kangxi: ...

His expression froze. Needless to say, his sons also came back to their senses, and there was a hint of contempt in their eyes.

no?no

You left your eldest brother in Fujian and you didn't say a word to Concubine Huimu?

Kangxi really forgot about Concubine Hui.

On the way, he was worried that the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager would worry about the elder brother, so he didn't mention it in the letter.And after returning to the palace, he was busy and busy, so he naturally left this matter behind.

Once reminded by Yinzhen, Kangxi felt very guilty.

After all, I'm afraid that Concubine Hui is not the only one who will find him to settle accounts, but also the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager!

Sure enough, before Kangxi could send his son away, people from the Compassionate Palace came.It was Su Mala who came, with a solemn expression on her face and a deep blessing: "Your Majesty pays my respects to the Emperor."

"Why is my aunt here too..."

Without Su Mala going any further, Kangxi let out a long sigh: "I will now go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to pay my respects to Huang Mama and Huang Erniang."

The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were very upset.

Concubine Tong, Concubine Yi, Concubine De, and Concubine Rong sat around Concubine Hui with a feeling of sympathy.Think about it, if some of my sons went out and were left far away for several years without returning, their sympathy for Concubine Hui would soar all the way, and their dissatisfaction with the emperor would gradually rise to the top.

It was this menacing scene that Kangxi saw when he stepped into the Palace of Compassion and Peace.His heart skipped a beat, and after greeting the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, he tried to change the subject: "Why do the doors and windows of the Compassionate Ning Palace seem to have changed a lot?"

During the four months after Kangxi left Beijing, the Liuli Kiln Factory also produced the first batch of large-scale glass with uniform thickness and clear translucence.These glasses were immediately sent to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and now the Palace of Compassion and Ning is full of sunlight during the day, not to mention the bright and clear interior of the formerly dark hall, and because of the sunshine, it is warm during the day.The whole winter is very comfortable, and even the charcoal fire is used a lot less.

Speaking of this empress dowager's serious expression relaxed.

She said with a smile: "This is all researched by the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother! If the emperor likes it, then he can order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to replace the Qianqing Palace!"

"Mama Ukuma, Yinhu also helped!"

"Yes, yes!" The Empress Dowager thought of the eighth elder brother again, and nodded with a smile: "It's because Ukumama's memory is wrong, and I forgot about our Yinhu."

Yinhu smiled shyly.

His thoughts were still stuck on why his elder brother stayed in Fujian—whether he can go out when he grows up?Thinking of this, Yinhu's heart was very hot. As for Liuli, he was indeed a little surprised in the past two months, but now he is also numb.

Kangxi is different.

He walked closer and observed carefully, and found that the lower layer had transparent glazed glass, while the upper layer was made of enamel colored glaze. In addition, there were carvings that were even more gorgeous than the old Mingwa. I can't help being amazed.

Just thinking that even if the Mingwa craft is mature, it is expensive, and the thing in front of him may be even more expensive, Kangxi still chose to shake his head: "There is no need for other places."

From Beijing to Fujian.

Even though the past two years have been good, the people in many places are still skinny, especially those in the depressions are so poor that it makes people heartache.

The empress dowager also wanted to know.

It must have been something that he saw on the road that made Kangxi feel thrifty again, but this time it was different.There was pride in her eyebrows and eyes: "The emperor guess how much money was spent on the Compassion Palace of the Ai family?"

Kangxi was slightly taken aback.

He walked around with his hands behind his back, and the more he looked at the frown, the tighter his brows became.The Compassion Palace is vast, and hundreds of doors and windows were replaced with colored glaze... Kangxi calculated according to the price of colored glaze offered by the Europeans, and he was in a bad mood.

I'm afraid there will be six to seven to eighty thousand taels of silver to fill in!

Kangxi felt a throbbing pain in his heart. He claimed to be extremely filial, so he didn't dare to show abnormalities in front of the Empress Dowager, but it was a bit unpleasant to look at Yinzhen and Yinzhi, two losers.

Yinzhen and Yinzhi moved sideways in unison.

They blackheartedly exposed Kangxi's bad eyes. The empress dowager and the empress dowager were unhappy because of the elder brother's affairs. Seeing this scene, they even elongated their faces: "Emperor!"

Kangxi: ...

He would be a fool if he hadn't realized that he had been tricked by his son.

Kangxi coughed and did not explain.

The Empress Dowager repeated it again: "Emperor, tell me. How much money do you think this trip cost?"

Kangxi was aggrieved.

He thought as cheap as possible: "... 3 taels?" This was the lowest price he could think of.

The fifth elder brother Yinqi's nose was already going up to the sky.

Kangxi knew at a glance that he had guessed wrong, but how cheap could it be?I have seen the churches of the missionaries myself, and the huge colored glaze on it is quite exciting. The only regret is the price.

A full 1 taels of silver!

And because of the bumpy road, there are only a dozen or even a few yuan left out of a hundred yuan.

No matter how much Kangxi likes him, he will not be taken advantage of.

He tossed the Liuli kiln factory for several years but failed to find a trick, and finally threw it aside.

Maybe your own son can make it, right?

Kangxi looked suspiciously at Yinzhen, then at Yinqi: "Could it be that the two of you were deceived by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Maybe it was to please the little elder brother, so he paid out of his own pocket to make up for the loss!The more Kangxi thought about it, the more reasonable he became, and the more annoyed he became, he ordered Liang Jiugong to take down the manager of Liuliyao Factory.

"emperor."

"Khan Ama!"

The voices of the Empress Dowager, Yinzhen and Yinqi sounded at the same time.

Especially both Yinzhen and Yinqi's faces are not very good - what does Han Ama mean to doubt us?Yinzhen pushed Yinqi, and Yinqi stepped forward with small square steps. He held his head high and held his chest high: "Khan Ama, the Compassionate Ninggong only used 100 taels like this!"

Kangxi: ...?

He reached out and touched Yinqi's little head: "Little fool, be good."

100 two?

That is, you can't even buy one-tenth of a window, what nonsense!Kangxi told Liang Jiugong with a cold face: "Go and call all the stewards of Liuli Kiln Factory, and I will interrogate them one by one."

The word interrogation means disbelief.

Seeing that Eunuch Liang was about to step down, Yin Zhen also looked down upon him.He stepped forward in three steps and two steps: "Khan Ama, what the fifth brother said is true, if you don't believe me, you can ask the kiln manager to ask."

Kangxi raised his eyebrows.

Yinzhen added a bet: "If it's fake, we'll copy the scriptures!"

Kangxi waved his hand: "Just copy the scriptures."

He paused: "If it's fake, you won't be allowed to go out this year." Don't think that Kangxi didn't know that Yinzhen and Yinqi used to go to the Acne Clinic and the Liuli Kiln Factory. Jumping outside, it's time to control their temperament.

It's just that Kangxi didn't expect it.

The two brothers looked at each other, and agreed quickly.

The kiln manager thought he was here to receive a reward, but he didn't expect to be greeted by the emperor's request.The person in charge named Xin Wa Liang Wa Liang was lying on the ground crying bitterly: "How dare the slave deceive the emperor, the empress dowager, the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother, this colored glaze is really made in the kiln factory, Both big and small."

Kangxi's pupils trembled when a basketful of colored glazes of various sizes came in.In front of you, there are a variety of styles ranging from large pieces of colored glaze to glazed mirrors, from telescopes to kaleidoscopes, from clear and transparent glazed vessels to colorful colored glazes with intricate patterns.

In the end, the manager of the Liuli Kiln Factory brought out a small box with a mournful face: "The slave thought that the fifth elder brother asked the slave to send this thing."

Liang Jiugong raised his hand and took a look.

He hurriedly presented it to the emperor with both hands: the small brocade box contained a pair of glasses, gilded brackets, and slightly curved lenses. Kangxi's hand trembled slightly: "Is it possible that these lenses are——"

"It is Yinqi and Yinzhen's birthday gift to Aijia."

The Empress Dowager replied proudly: "The children are very filial. The prescription of these lenses is slightly different, and they are uncomfortable to wear. They have been adjusted back and forth four or five times."

She looked at Kangxi with a bit of contempt in her eyes.

Compared with the emperor who wrote the congratulatory speech, the empress dowager's eyes are now all biased towards the meticulous and serious grandchildren.
