The Struggle History of the Fourteenth Qing Dynasty

Chapter 071 The first visit to the capital

As a result, all the five schools in Gandong were vacated, and two little dolls were allowed to live in the first school and the other in the second school.

When the brothers moved, Xiao Shishi wanted to present a congratulatory gift for the housewarming. The concubine De concubine gave him the others, but he paid for the fourth elder brother himself. He gave his fourth brother 5000 taels of silver.

This is the money he earned from those recipes. The fourth elder brother gave him a bank note on time every month, which is called a dividend in the euphemistic name.

But Xiao Shisi didn't have any expenses, so he saved all of it, and then gave it to his brother as a gift.

The fourth elder brother didn't want to accept it, so he was pushed back by the fourteenth elder brother: "Brother, I have Huang Ama in charge of everything in the palace, so I don't have to worry about eating and drinking. When you go out, you just set up a door outside. There are many places to spend money. Don't look at saying that every prince and elder brother can get 23 taels of silver to settle down, but it can't stand your big family."

The fourth elder brother had no choice but to accept it.

Afterwards, Xiao Shisi rolled around at Kangxi's place: "They have all moved away, and my son also wants to go out of the palace to play, go to my elder brother's house, and it would be good if each family takes turns to stay for two days!"

"They just moved in, and they haven't cleaned up the smoke and the earthquake. What are you going to do? After they clean up, the weather will be cold. Let's celebrate the new year. Go during the new year. It's still lively in the first month." Kangxi refused to let Xiao Shi It's right to go four times, those few houses are not sorted out by myself now, so Xiao Shishi can't go.

"Then go out to play!" Little Fourteen actually wanted to leave the palace. He was 11 years old and would be 12 soon.

Kangxi thought about it and agreed!

"Okay, Huang Ama will personally take you to the inner city for a stroll." He didn't say to go to the outer city, because the inner city is full of banner people, and the outer city is mixed, there are all kinds of people.

"Take Brother Thirteen, Brother Thirteen has never been out before." Little Fourteen still remembers Thirteen.

"Take it!" Kangxi waved his hand: "Just the three of us go out."

"There's also Brother Twelve!" Little Fourteen added: "The three of us are all studying together. It's not good to go out to play without Brother Twelve."

Elder Brother Twelve is a nice person, delicate and cute.

"Take it!" Kangxi didn't expect Xiao Shishi to take Xiao Twelve with him. Since one brought him, the other should also bring him.

So, on the second day, Kangxi took Little Twelve, Little Thirteen, and Little Fourteen, pretending to be father and son, followed by a dozen or so inner guards, and left the Forbidden City.

At this time, it was the end of September and the beginning of October. The first snow in the capital had not yet fallen, but the frost on the ground could already be seen when I got up in the morning.

The four masters were all wearing very thick clothes, Xiao Shishi brought a small bottle, Xiao Shishi and Xiao Shisan also brought a person each.

When I left the Forbidden City, I walked through the side gate of Shunzhen Gate. This is the gate that the concubine's family usually enters and exits.

Every day, many concubines' families and clansmen handed over plaques to the palace to pay their respects.

The palace may not always be accurate, so there are many people queuing up here every day.

During this period, no one noticed them coming in and out. There were so many 60, No. [-] people gathered together, Xiao Shishi's mouth was wide open: "Ama, these people... are all going to enter the palace?"

"What do you think?" Kangxi glanced at those people, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"It's not like entering the palace to ask for an audience, it's like going to a fair." Little Fourteen was speechless: "Besides, it's inconvenient for so many people to enter the palace?"

Although the harem of the Qing Dynasty was not the same as that of the Han people, three-foot virgins were not allowed to enter.

But these are outsiders anyway, with so many people entering the palace, it is still the harem, if there is any conflict, it will be miserable.

This group of people is probably regarded as relatives of the emperor outside, right?

"They won't go in. At most one or two female family members will be allowed in. The palace won't allow everyone to go in. Besides, many people have no qualifications to see them at all." Kangxi told the three young boys: "They came here just to ask for an audience. Let me show you that there are people in their family. For example, the family over there, Wang's natal family, a group of ordinary people, although they look well dressed, they actually have no family background. It's just that Wang was favored and gave birth to two daughters. Brother, they started fighting. Recently, a cousin of their family committed a crime. The Ministry of Punishment over there has arrested him. Dali Temple has sentenced him. They rushed to see Mrs. Wang in a hurry, hoping that the emperor can release him from the Internet. On the one hand, even if they can’t, they went to Beijing, and when they returned home, they said that they had met Mrs. Wang, and even had a face-to-face meeting. Who could come to the capital to verify? But their guides did come to the capital, and there is even a record in the register here. Leave a request for an audience."

To put it bluntly, it is pulling the tiger's skin to pull the banner!

Little Fourteen understands why his Empress Mama doesn't want to see Wang Shi anymore, or she has too many eyes and is too shallow, or she has a group of natal families who are holding back.

Anyway, he remembered that in the TV series of the Qing Dynasty that he had watched, the Wang family had always been a concubine in the Kangxi Dynasty, and it was not until the Yongzheng Dynasty that his brother respected all the Kangxi women who gave birth to princes and survived as concubines. Concubine, and was given a title.

Moreover, Kangxi was harsh enough to the Wang family. Since he promised the concubine, why not grant it?Let Wang live in the harem so comfortably.

He also bore him three sons.

"Ms. Wang is also...and I don't know." Little Fourteen is kind-hearted after all. Although he only met Wang once in a hurry, she was indeed a weak beauty like a Jiangnan water town.

"You are so kind. Do you remember your big trumpet?" Kangxi felt that the fourteenth son was the kindest.

"Remember!" His favorite invention, now everyone can hear it.

"She was the one who insisted on staying at the beginning, but when your loudspeaker sounded, she became frightened and complained of a stomachache when she returned home. On the same day, she announced the imperial doctor and took the anti-fetal medicine. There is no problem with this pregnancy, but if there is What are you doing? People will talk about it!" Kangxi told Xiao Shishi about this matter: "That's why I will give Xiao Shiwu to your mother to raise, so that the Wang family will not dare What's more."

He has plenty of women, but only a few sons.

Little Fourteen is so cute.

The Wang family can't compare at all.

"Ama, Xiao Shiwu is a good person. I don't have much contact with his mother-in-law. In the future, it will be a big deal, let's take a detour!" Xiao Shishi is as open-minded as ever: "Besides, my mother-in-law will definitely not spare her."

Kangxi was amused by his open-mindedness: "Yes!"

Concubine De is not an ordinary woman, Mrs. Wang used to be a newcomer in the palace, like a fresh flower, but later she was very honest in front of Concubine De.

And what about Concubine De?After taking the child, Wang will be honest.

Now that the child has gone to elder brother's office, Wang's hand can't be stretched so long.

Concubine De can, but she can coerce Wang Shi in a disguised form.

Mrs. Wang and others stepped on her, that woman finally knew the seriousness.

The methods of those women in the backyard are not enough to be used in the palace.

A group of people arrived in the inner city, where the mansions of the royal relatives and relatives were majestic and dignified. They were all full of princes and ministers living here. After passing through this high-end residential area, there was a market.

It is said to be a market, but it is actually not that messy. After all, this is an inner city, and the people who live here are all bannermen, and those who can open shops here have backgrounds.

There are no street stalls, the streets are very clean, there are more shops, and there are seven or eight tables in the snack bar, which are clean.

There are restaurants, restaurants, cloth shops and embroidery shops, and even pet shops!

Don't think that there were no pet shops in ancient times. Little Fourteen and his party of three and a half teenagers couldn't get enough of them.

He even went to the embroidery shop to buy some embroidery. Xiao Shishi picked out a set of pillows with the Chinese zodiac signs, and specially ordered several pillows with the same zodiac signs.

There is also a lark's soothing pillow, which is actually filled with millet instead of buckwheat husks. Buckwheat husks make noise when they are moved, but the millet is filled solidly and does not make any noise.

This is deflated millet, and some people use it to feed chickens.

It's not a waste of things, not to mention if it's bulging millet, the grain inside should be broken after a long time.

There are also some dried petals in it, which is a good idea.

After buying these things, there are a few unique purses, sachets, fan pendants, and a big purchase.

A group of people went to a restaurant called "VIP Building" for dinner. This restaurant is three stories high, with cornices and corners, the lobby is bright and bright, the second floor is quiet, and the third floor is full of private rooms.

The group of them went directly to the third floor and sat down in a private room. This private room was very large, with two tables, enough for all of them to sit down.

However, the middle is separated by a screen, and the tables inside are small, while the tables outside are large, which is obviously different.

Later Xiaoshi realized that the outside was the place for the attendants to sit, and the inside was the place for the master to eat through the screen.

The waiter was all in high spirits, but there was no menu, so Li Dequan went to the door, gave some orders in a low voice, and the waiter went down.

They are here, only make people drink boiled water.

Bring your own teapot, teacups, and tea leaves.

Probably because this is a restaurant, they came a little earlier, and these people served the food very quickly.

"Eight bowls of flowing water, roasted meat made of iron", in traditional folk, "eight bowls" are spread all over the country, and the "eight bowls" of old Beijing are unique.

At the same time, because of the low production capacity in ancient times, it was not possible to eat meat every day.

The eight bowls of old Beijing are big bowls of three yellow chicken, big bowls of yellow croakers, big bowls of elbows, big bowls of meatballs, big bowls of rice noodle meat, big bowls of braised pork, big bowls of loose meat and big bowls of pork ribs.

Although the cooking is not as exquisite as in the palace, the dishes are good and the taste is also good.

In addition, a plate of big white steamed buns and two plates of cold dishes are presented, one is Shandong vegetable and the other is bean sprouts with vinegar pepper.

It can be regarded as a clear dish, because these eight bowls are full of oil and water, and it will inevitably get greasy after eating.

"Ama, eat pork ribs." Little Fourteen picked out a good piece of pork ribs and put it in the bowl for Huang Ama.

"Okay, you can eat too." Kangxi enjoyed his son's filial piety very much.

It's just that Xiao Shisan and Xiao Shisan are one level behind, and they didn't dare to serve Kangxi with vegetables, but Xiao Shisan brought Kangxi a steamed bun, and Xiao Shisan put Shandong mixed vegetables in front of Kangxi, so that He can eat it with just one stick of chopsticks.

Eat without talking, sleep without talking, now pretending to be like a gentleman, and finished eating in silence, in fact, the followers outside also have a set of eight bowls, but they have double servings here, after all, there are so many people.

Kangxi didn't leave immediately after eating, but sat down and needed to digest, not to mention Xiao Shisan and Xiao Shisi hadn't finished eating yet.

Little Fourteen loves the big bowl of loose meat and ribs.

Xiao Shisan prefers the big bowl of rice noodles and meat.

In fact, it was almost time to eat, but suddenly there was a loud noise outside.

The sound is quite loud.

A man said loudly: "Whoever you are, I am Hesheli, do you know? My niece and daughter are Empress Yuan, and my grandnephew is the prince! The prince has to call me when he sees me. An uncle! How dare you not let me in? You are courting death!"

"Lord, please calm down. There are already guests eating here. When they are finished, the little ones will be cleaned up for you immediately. This meal, the little ones, please use it!" The shopkeeper's voice sounded: "It seems that everyone In the face of relatives."

"Who is related to you!" The man insisted on coming in for dinner at this time.

"Then please look at the face of the master behind this VIP building!" The shopkeeper kept begging for mercy: "The owner behind this restaurant is..."

He automatically muted.

But the man ignored him: "What's wrong with Sibeile? Sibeile is only the emperor's son, not the emperor himself."

There is a lot of movement, and there are many people eating outside. Although there are few private rooms on the third floor, the people who can eat in the private rooms are all dignitaries. If you are rich alone, you can at most use the private seats on the second floor.

On the other hand, Xiao Shishi was very shocked: "Is this my brother's property?"

"Yes, this is your fourth brother's property. To be more precise, it's the dowry of Empress Xiaoyi." Kangxi laughed, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Tong Jia's used to be in charge, but now your fourth brother takes over. Afterwards, Tong Jia's family withdrew, and it turned out..."

Could it be that the name of a prince elder brother is no bigger than Tong Jia's, and can't suppress Hesheli's?

This is a big taboo!

Xiao Shisi understood his Huang Ama's thoughts in an instant, and everyone else bowed their heads and dared not speak.

It was getting more and more noisy outside, Kangxi saw that the two of them had finished eating, so he simply stood up: "Come on, let's go out and see who the Hesheli is, making endless noise in this VIP building."

"Ama, don't be angry, there is no one to replace your angry body!" Xiao Shisi stepped forward and held his hand, looking at Kangxi with a little worry. At such an old age, it is not good for his health to be angry all the time: "We Go and see who is yelling there."

"Okay, Ama is not angry." Kangxi took his hand and led him out of the private room.

Their private room is the largest and best private room here, not only is it divided into compartments, but the location of the station is also good. The design of ancient restaurants does not look like modern ones. Many restaurant tables can't wait to be full. The restaurant is elegantly laid out, clean and hygienic.

On the wooden stairs, two groups of people were confronting each other.

There are only three or five people in the group, one shopkeeper, two big guys, and two young guys.

The other group was different, and the leader was a middle-aged man in a fur coat.

The man wore a jade belt around his waist, and was playing with a pair of iron walnuts in his hands. His neck was tilted, and a folding fan was stuck behind his neck.
