[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Shuwan thought about it carefully, and felt that the method used by the fourth elder brother to win over the ninth elder brother was similar to that of green tea.

First create a gap between the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother, and then send warmth to the ninth elder brother when he is sad, and poach this corner when the ninth elder brother loses his guard. Isn't this the standard green tea method?

But Shuwan doesn't care which method the fourth elder brother uses, as long as it can disintegrate the power of the eighth elder brother, that is a good method.

After the new year, the royal family and even the entire capital are busy, because the emperor's [-]th birthday is coming.

The law and order was strictly enforced in the capital, and all the pickpockets and beggars on the streets disappeared. The shops on the street were hung with red silk and red lanterns, and everyone was dressed up happily.

The screen embroidered by the princes and grandchildren has also been completed. The frame of the screen is made of high-quality rosewood. The side of the screen is double-sided silk.The screen is extremely exquisite, and the red sandalwood frame is inlaid with beads and jade, which is extremely luxurious.

Everyone was busy, and finally came the day of the emperor's birthday.

Shuwan's family got up early in the morning and ran to the palace before dawn.When they arrived at the palace, the fourth elder brother took the three sons to the front, and Shuwan went to the harem to join Concubine De.

Concubine De was dressed up grandly, with joy on her face, she seemed to be several years younger.

Shuwan just arrived, and not long after, the Thirteenth Fujin and the Fourteenth Fujin also came, and the three prince Fujin followed Concubine De to Ningshou Palace.

The emperor's birthday is also very tiring, and the schedule is very tight.He also got up early and went to Ningshou Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother and show respect.Then in the Ningshou Palace, waiting for the concubines and juniors to kowtow to celebrate their birthdays.

At noon, the banquet was held in front, and the relatives of the clan and all civil and military officials congratulated the emperor's birthday together. There was no room in the room, and the table had already been placed in the open space outside.The female relatives stayed in the harem and had a banquet with the queen mother.In the evening, the emperor came to the harem for a banquet. This banquet was regarded as a family banquet, and the atmosphere would be more relaxed.

Shuwan stayed in the harem, not knowing what the atmosphere was like ahead.She toasted with the crowd for a while, said the toast for a while, and had to recite the birthday poems that the fourth elder brother had prepared for her in advance. The whole process was extremely boring.

After staying up all afternoon, until the family dinner in the evening, Shuwan and the fourth elder brother met.

Shuwan had a decent smile on her face, but her mouth kept complaining.

"I would rather swing a sledgehammer and farm the land than come to the palace to have a banquet. My auspicious clothes and jewelry weigh ten catties, and I have to smile and maintain a good posture. Brother, my My waist is almost broken! I'm so tired!"

The fourth elder brother glanced at Shuwan's lower back. He reached out to rub it, but when he saw someone looking at her, he took his hand back.

"Be patient, wait until the family dinner is over, and I'll rub it for you when I get home."

Shuwan pinched the handkerchief with a smirk and pressed the sweat from her forehead, "Is the family banquet going to last until midnight? Come to an end, my smiling face is frozen!"

The fourth elder brother coaxed a few words patiently. In order to divert attention, Shuwan asked about their banquet in front at noon.

"How is it? Isn't it very lively?"

The fourth elder brother smiled and nodded, "It's really lively. There are many people who came to celebrate the birthday. Huang Ama was very happy, and it was a rare exception to drink several glasses of wine."

"What rare treasures did the big guys give? Tell me quickly!" Shuwan asked in a low voice, "How about the Haidongqing that the eighth elder brother gave you? Does the emperor like it?"

The fourth elder brother sneered, "Lao Ba sent some antiques and a scripture copied with his own blood, which is quite rare. He is shrewd! The rumors released by Hai Dongqing are all fake."

Shuwan raised her eyebrows, "With his personality, such a result is not very surprising."

At this time the queen mother and the emperor arrived, Shuwan and the fourth elder brother shut up quickly.

Everyone stood up to salute the queen mother and the emperor, and when they were flattened, Shuwan glanced in the direction of elder brother Jiu.

The corners of Brother Jiu's mouth were raised stiffly, and his smile was very forced.Jiu Fujin poked his waist while laughing, shaking Jiu Age slightly.

Brother Jiu rubbed his face and gave up his fake smile. He let out a sigh of relief, put a smile on his face again, and looked more sincere.

Shuwan lowered her voice and said to the fourth elder brother: "Look at the forced smile on the ninth elder brother's face."

The fourth elder brother explained in a low voice: "I heard that Lao Jiu found two slaves who are very good at domesticating Hai Dongqing, and specially sent them to the eighth elder brother's house."

Ninth elder brother originally wanted eighth elder brother to take good care of Hai Dongqing and look decent when giving gifts to the emperor. He didn't know that Hai Dongqing was just a smoke bomb released by eighth elder brother.

Shuwan has some sympathy for Brother Jiu. He is a big brother with a heart, but his brother doesn't believe him.

Soon Shuwan didn't have the heart to pay attention to Brother Jiu. At the family banquet, everyone congratulated the emperor on his birthday. All kinds of good and auspicious words were poured out like money, so Shuwan could only cheer up and say a few words.

There were songs, dances and juggling tricks at the banquet, which everyone watched with gusto. At the end of the banquet, there were gorgeous fireworks.

The emperor's [-]th birthday was successfully concluded, and everyone left the palace to go home, and they were still discussing this grand banquet on the road.

At the gate of the palace, the fourth elder brother helped Shuwan into the carriage, and Kang Bao Xiaobao took his younger brother into another carriage.There was a noise coming from the side, and the Si elder brother's family couldn't help but look in the direction of the noise.

The eighth elder brother, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother stood together. The eighth elder brother's family seemed to want to go back with the ninth elder brother's family, and the tenth elder brother echoed.

Brother Jiu shouted angrily: "No need! My driver can find the way, so I don't bother you!"

The eighth elder brother persuaded softly: "Our two families are close! Walking at night..."

"Walking together at night can brighten the hall? Am I a lantern?" Brother Jiu said fiercely, "Thank you myna for your kindness, there is no need for it!"

Elder Brother Ten scolded, "You took the wrong medicine! Why are you talking to Mynah?"

Brother Nine shouted: "That's how I speak!"

The eighth elder brother persuaded the tenth elder brother softly, "Forget it, the ninth brother drank too much, so let it be if he doesn't want to."

Brother Jiu was even more unhappy when he heard this, it always happens!This happens every time!Starling always speaks in a soft voice, he always takes reason, as if he is making trouble for no reason when he speaks loudly, as if he has been tolerating his bad temper all the time!

Ninth elder brother was anxious, he patrolled around and shouted at fourth elder brother: "Fourth elder brother, I will go with you! I will go with you more conveniently!"

The fourth elder brother was stunned for a moment. He took his wife to watch the fun, but he didn't expect the excitement to fall on him.

Before the fourth elder brother could answer, Shuwan spoke first.

"Okay! Everyone drop by, let's go together!"

Shuwan raised the curtain of the carriage and got into the carriage first.The fourth elder brother made up for his wife, "Let's join the eighth brother! Let's all drop by!"

The eighth elder brother forced a smile and didn't speak.The tenth elder brother was even more dissatisfied when he saw the eighth elder brother's dejected look.

Reluctantly, the carriages in the mansion of the fourth elder brother and the ninth elder brother left soon, and the tenth elder brother had no chance to reason with them.

It was the emperor's birthday, and everyone took advantage of the emperor's blessing to take a few days off.

The fourth elder brother stayed at home tending flowers and plants, cultivating his body and mind, and the ninth elder brother ran over early in the morning.

The fourth elder brother didn't ask him what he was doing here, but asked the people below to pour him a cup of tea, and then went on with his own business.

Brother Jiu sat on the chair in a daze, neither speaking nor moving, like a wooden man.

When the fourth elder brother finished pruning the fifth potted flower, the tenth elder brother also came.The fourth elder brother also ordered someone to serve him tea. He knew that the tenth elder brother was looking for the ninth elder brother, so he hid outside the house, letting the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother talk at ease in the room.

Brother Ten angrily accused Brother Nine, "How could you treat mynah like this? Yesterday you made him unable to step down in front of so many people!"

Brother Jiu said coldly: "So what? Could it be that you asked me to apologize to him?"

Elder Brother Shi didn't understand, "The three of us have been together for so many years, why did you go to the Ministry of Household Affairs and follow... after that, why did you change?"

The tenth elder brother glanced outside, he dared not speak too bluntly when he was at the fourth elder brother's house.

Brother Nine stared at Brother Ten angrily, "Who has changed? After I went to the household department, when did I do something to offend Myna? My heart towards Myna has never changed, let me swear that I dare You go ask mynah and see if he dares to swear.

You came here to ask me without thinking, why don't you ask mynah first?My fourth brother and I are in the household department, so we have to get closer, because of this, he doubts me.

And this time, he told me before that the congratulatory gift he wanted to give to Huang Ama was two Costinins, which were extremely rare.But what did he send yesterday?What about Costin?He even guarded against me, did he treat me as a brother? "

Elder Brother Ten explained: "I didn't have time to tell you about Hai Dongqing, I only found out about it yesterday. Hai Dongqing is not very energetic, and the starling was worried that something might go wrong, so he temporarily changed the birthday gift."

"Temporary? Such words can only deceive fools!"

Elder Brother Ten was silent, he believed the rhetoric of Myna...

Brother Nine said indifferently: "Just take care of yourself, don't take care of me. For so many years, brothers, mynah's defense makes me chill. I didn't call the door because I have self-restraint, so don't try to persuade me again." gone."

Elder Brother Ten was sweating profusely. He couldn't bear to watch this brotherhood ruined like this.

He was so angry that he screamed and walked around the room with his hands behind his back.

Extremely angry, he turned his anger on the fourth elder brother, pointed outside and shouted: "It was he who instigated it, right! You have become like this now, it is all because he instigated you!"

After speaking, the tenth elder brother rushed out, wanting to reason with the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother knew what he was going to do by looking at his posture. He was too lazy to talk nonsense with the tenth elder brother, so he picked up the small spoon for scooping up the fertilizer, scooped a spoonful of unknown objects and poured it on the tenth elder brother.

The strange smell interrupted Brother Ten's anger, and he almost jumped up holding the hem of his clothes.

"What are these!"

The fourth elder brother said lightly: "It's flower fertilizer, flower fertilizer that has been retting for a long time."

The tenth elder brother raised his finger, pointed at the fourth elder brother, and then pointed at his clothes.

The fourth elder brother still had the same indifferent look, "Make up some fertilizer and grow your brains. My ninth brother and I only talk about business in the yamen, and rarely visit each other when we get home. The number of times we meet each other in private is very small.

It doesn't matter to me that Lao Ba suddenly changed his birthday gift, he was too careful, who cares about ruining his birthday gift?That's the old man Wanshou, everyone is looking forward to a smooth and smooth life, and I'm not stupid, how could I dig a hole for others at this juncture?

As for my relationship with Lao Jiu... Since he is afraid that I will snatch Lao Jiu, why didn't he talk to Lao Jiu in person, why didn't he just come and talk to me?Why should you be sent to charge the front? "

The fourth elder brother sneered, and patted the tenth elder brother on the shoulder, "Think carefully! Don't be like a cannon fodder, rushing to the front again and again."

Elder Brother Ten's face froze, and his lips lost all color.
