MTL - Female Official In the East Palace-Chapter 169
The early death of the eleventh elder brother Yinyu really makes people feel regretful, the prince Yinren and the crown princess Gu Erjia have a heavy heart every time they think that he has endured a lot at such a young age .
However, after Rong Xin told the two about the interaction between the eldest grandson and Dongzhu, the two looked at Dongzhu with great excitement, but unfortunately, no matter how happy they looked forward to it, Dongzhu never again exhibit the behavior they want.
Prince, elder brother and other elder brothers did not observe the rules of filial piety for the younger brother, and they all had errands, so they left early with their families.
Kangxi also stayed in the palace for only seven days before returning to the palace to handle government affairs. Only the concubine Guo Luoluo couldn't bear the illness after the funeral of the eleventh elder brother, so she stayed in Changchun Garden .
The fifth elder brother Yinqi and the ninth elder brother Yinqi are the biological sons of Concubine Yi, and naturally they have to stay behind.
Concubine Yi lay on the side of the bed in a state of depression, and said sadly: "Before Yinyu went, I told E-niang that he was very happy, and taught me not to be sad for him..."
The fifth elder brother and the ninth elder brother were also saddened by the passing of their younger brother, but they, as sons of man, needed to be strong at this time, so they comforted the mother.
& nbsp; Think about Yin Yu."
The fifth elder brother and the ninth elder brother looked at each other, and then stopped their words of consolation.
Concubine Yi drove the two of them away again, "I have a palace maid here to take care of me, and I don't need the two of you to take care of me. What should I do, look upset."
The fifth brother is still worried, but he has been raised in the Cining Palace since he was a child. Compared with the nine brothers in front of E Niang, he feels a little strange, and his words are not very casual, so he has to let Nine Agora left him.
The huge Changchun Garden, at this time, because there are only three masters and few palace attendants walking around, it looks a bit empty.
The fifth elder brother and the ninth elder brother walked hand in hand, persuading: "You too, don't bother about those businessmen, lest Pope Amma know that you are not doing your right job."
"To make money with my ability, how can I not do a proper job?" Brother Jiu said in disbelief.
"Prince second brother knew? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?"
When Brother Jiu heard his series of questions, he had a look of "I knew this would happen for a long time", "I'm not afraid that Brother Five, you won't help me anymore?"
"If it's serious business, how can I not support you?"
"Why isn't it a serious business to make money?" Brother Jiu retorted, "You don't know, Brother Fifth, the second brother has praised his younger brother several times, and he has repeatedly asked his younger brother how to do business."
The fifth brother is very suspicious, but he also knows that the nine elder brother will not lie about this kind of thing, but the more clearly he knows, the more difficult it is for him to believe that the second brother of the prince will do such a behavior.
Haha Zhuzi Fenglu, who was beside the fifth brother, turned his eyes and speculated: "His Royal Highness, at nine o'clock, the Crown Prince's move is deliberately done to eliminate the threat? "
"Presumptuous!" The fifth elder brother scolded, "How can you judge the character of the prince?"
Brother Jiu was also dissatisfied and said: "The emperor Ama personally conquered, and the second brother of the prince is in charge. How stable is his position, how can he use such a method?"
Haha Zhuzi Fenglu's knees softened, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed while begging: "This servant made a slip of the tongue, don't dare, please forgive the fifth and ninth highnesses."
Brother Wu still frowned, "You won't have to follow me in the future."
Feng Lu kowtowed harder and begged for mercy, repeatedly saying "I don't dare anymore", but the fifth elder brother did not let go, and the nine elder brother did not mean to persuade him to forgive.
Brother Wu mercilessly drove away Haha Zhuzi, who had been with him since school, and told him and other people around Brother Jiu: "Be careful with your words and deeds, otherwise don't blame the master I don't remember old feelings."
Everyone swears and swears that they dare not do that.
Ninth Brother looked at his brother's stern appearance and joked: "I thought fifth brother was honest, but I never thought I would be lucky enough to see my brother so serious."
Ninth Brother reluctantly replied: "Understood, fifth brother is ready to marry his sister-in-law, no need to worry about his brother."
"Don't take it to heart."
"Yes, yes, I will not cause trouble."
"There is also the matter of doing business in the palace..." The fifth prince paused, and did not say anything of veto, but looked at the nine princes again and asked, "Prince two Does brother have any explanation for you?"
Nine Brothers answered honestly: "Just teach me to learn other languages, and get more exposure to Western learning."
When the fifth brother heard it, he guessed: "The second brother of the prince wants you to enter the Ministry of Rites?"
Ninth Brother doesn’t think so. From the direction that the second brother of the prince talked to him recently, he has some guesses, but this kind of guess is not something that the fifth brother can rest assured, so he casually perfunctory a few times. In other words, teach him to mistakenly think that the second brother of the prince really wants him to enter the Ministry of Rites.
As for the matter of the nine princes making money in the palace, because he passed the bright road in front of the second prince, the fifth prince thought again and again, and did not completely block his way of making money, but prepared A little more control.
Nine Brothers is not worried at all, because he has a new channel and his backing is stronger.
At the end of August, Concubine Yi had to end her leisurely and clean days in Changchun Garden and was ready to return to the palace. The fifth elder brother, who had returned to the palace for more than half a month, received the permission of Emperor Ama and came to pick up Eniang and her younger brother in person .
After returning to the palace to visit the other places, Brother Jiu couldn't wait to come to Yuqing Palace.
The little **** led the nine elder brother into the Dunben Palace and said: "Report to the nine princes, His Royal Highness is still in the Qianqing Palace and has not returned..."
"It's okay." Brother Jiu interrupted him and said, "Is the female official here? Just ask her to come over."
The little **** replied respectfully, "Officer Rong is in Yuqing Palace, the ninth highness will report later."
Brother Jiu nodded, sat casually on the chair, drank tea and waited for a while, when she saw the female officer Rong walking in with Dongzhu in her arms.
He immediately got up and said with a warm smile, "Aunt Rong, you're bothering me."
Rong Xin bowed slightly to Brother Jiu, and then asked, "Brother Jiu is looking for me for something?"
These brothers, Rong Xin has a better relationship with the big brother Yinzhuang, the third brother Yinzhi, the fourth brother Yinzhen, and the 12th brother Yinying, and the next one is the eighth Brother Yinsi, the tenth elder brother Yin Russia, and the fifteenth elder brother Yinsi, the relationship between the elder brothers is basically superficial.
Rong Xin was a little surprised that the nine elder brothers named her to see her today, and she was so enthusiastic.
The thoughts in her eyes did not hide, Jiu elder brother saw it at a glance, and immediately explained: "Aunt Rong, I don't know if the second brother of the prince has told you about Yin Tan, the second prince Brother let Yinzhen come to Yuqing Palace to look for you if needed."
Rong Xin listened to Jiu'er's explanation a few more words, and then suddenly realized, but still repeated his words to confirm: "You mean that your purchasing channel is broken, so you came to ask me for help?"
"Exactly." Jiu'er replied with a very natural expression, "Aunt Rong used to be a palace maid and took the phoenix drink, this matter must be easy for you. little things."
"You're too good."
Rong Xin did hear from His Royal Highness the prince that the nine elder brothers earned 8,000 taels of silver in less than a year when they were fifth elder brothers, but the prince never said that he would teach the nine elder brothers to come looking for her.
However, no matter whether it is true or not, Rong Xin can't agree to Jiu Brother.
The fifth elder brother and the ninth elder brother are innocuous and harmless. If she gets involved, the nature of the matter will change.
Then, Rong Xin guessed the prince's intention and smiled: "It's really not difficult to help you buy some items from outside the palace, but you are extremely smart in this way, if you work hard just to make money Some small money, I am afraid that some are overkill."
"What does Aunt Rong mean by this?"
Little hand, raised the hand gun, "Our Qing army is strong, and the place that can teach you to show your talents is convenient not only for the Qing country, but also for the wider world."
Ninth Brother stared at the hand gun intently, and asked tentatively, "Aunt Rong is saying, follow Zhang Qian and Zheng He?"
Rong Xin said with a smile: "I have little knowledge, and I didn't think of such a great significance, but I just thought that since we opened the four major customs in Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang in Qing Dynasty, the annual tariff With millions of taels of silver and countless merchant ships, the benefits must be huge..."
"The second brother of the prince taught me to understand Western learning and learn other languages. Is this the plan?"
Rong Xin listened to his words, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "His Royal Highness cherishes talents, but there will be no desire to force it, or your wishes are the priority. "
"I..." Brother Jiu temporarily forgot his plan, and thoughtfully said, "I'll think about it..."
"His Royal Highness has just not found someone who is proficient in this way and is trustworthy, so you are a treasure at first sight, but you must not be burdened."
Rong Xin gave a few more words of consolation, and the words were very generous, but the content expressed in the tone was all the prince's appreciation for Jiu Age.
Ninth Brother is young and energetic, and he has just experienced the denial of his own brother, Fifth Brother, and suddenly he is so recognized, and the person who has expectations for him is also admired by all brothers The second brother of the prince, even expressed his willingness to work hard for what Rong Xin said.
Rong Xin solemnly said: "This matter is no trivial matter, and it is not in a hurry, it is not too late for you to go back and think about it before making a decision..."
"Aunt Rong doesn't need to persuade her anymore, Yin Tan has made up her mind."
When Rong Xin heard this, he sighed slightly as if admitting defeat, and said, "Since you have made a decision, I won't be able to persuade me any more, I just tell you that this fact is my own opinion. , the prince is not aware of it, and this matter needs to be discussed in the long run, Wanwangjiu brother should not make a sound."
"It's nature." After Jiu Ge promised, he said goodbye to Rong Xin.
Rong Xin asked him to wait for the first-class prince, Jiu Ge declined, Rong Xin hugged Dongzhu and personally sent him out of Yuqing Palace, with a more enthusiastic tone than the previous Jiu Ge : "You often come to Yuqing Palace to walk around, His Royal Highness is very happy to get close to the brothers."
"I also admire the second brother of the prince, and will definitely come here often." Brother Jiu bowed his hands at Rong Xinwei and said goodbye, "Aunt Rong, please come back too."
Rong Xin stood at the entrance of Yuqing Palace, smiling and waving at him gently, in a gentle and amiable manner.
The prince returned to the Yuqing Palace before dinner. After hearing the visit of Jiu elder brother, he and his aunt looked at each other and accompanied the prince and the children for dinner as if nothing had happened.
After dinner, the Crown Prince invited Rong Xin to the study and said straight to the point, "Did Auntie persuade Xiao Jiu?"
"I promise." After Rong Xin replied, he gave the prince an angry look, "Anyway, you should tell me in advance, in case I don't understand, what should I do if I promised Jiu'er brother? ?"
The prince smiled heartily, "I know that my aunt will not agree to Xiaojiu regardless. It seems that it is not unexpected."
"Yes yes yes, you know what to expect."
The prince shook his fan and pretended to be modest: "It's not that Yinren predicts things like God, it's really aunt that you are especially reliable."
"Don't dare to be your Highness's compliment."
"Deserve it, deserve it."
Rong Xin laughed, shook his head, and asked seriously, "Do you have any plans for Brother Jiu?"
The prince nodded, "Xiao Jiu is smart, but he is a bit slick, and he is not very hard at studying. It is just this way to arrange more homework for him, and learn to use it for himself."
"You said so."
After the chat between the prince and Rong Xin, Jiu Age started a troubled day, and it was too late to regret it.
The fifth elder brother knew a little about the situation, and when he saw that his younger brother no longer asked him to help him buy, he felt relieved and ignored his lame head.
As for Concubine Yi, she only knows that her son is motivated, and doesn't care about the reason at all.
Kangxi, after the battle of Zhaomodo, he wanted to force Galdan to surrender, but he didn't want him to be stubborn and still led his troops to resist, so he decided to fight Galdan three times. Ningxia.
The period of the three expeditions is scheduled for the sixth day of the second lunar month of the new year. Before the departure, Kangxi ordered the third elder brother to drop out of Renzhao Academy and enter the court again as an official.
Rong Concubine Ma Jia’s decision was thousands of willing to the emperor, and even uncharacteristically sent soup and snacks to the Qianqing Palace, just ask the emperor not to obey Yinzhi any more Heart.
Kangxi... did not want to accept the sudden concern of some people, those soups and snacks were sent back to the Zhongcui Palace as they were before they entered the Qianqing Palace.
Concubine Rong was very irritable, so she chose a day specially, invited Rong Xin to come, and also called the third brother, to persuade him to "go back to the right path".
Rong Xin hugged Dongzhu, speechless, "Why are you looking for me today?"
"Isn't this a big deal?" Concubine Rong held her forehead with one hand and caressed her chest with the other, pretentiously, "They are all twenty years old, and the eldest son is born. , his sister married to Mongolia and gave birth to a pair of children, if he is sensible, how can he still be doing nothing in the academy?"
Years ago, Dong'e of Sanfu Jin gave birth to a son named Hongqing.
Since the third elder brother is a father, it is natural for him to do things when he enters the court, but Rong Xin has a word that Rong Xin can hardly agree with.
“How can reading and learning be idle?”
Concubine Rong paused for a while, then compromised: "Bento my words are inappropriate, but he must enter the court, otherwise... otherwise I will not recognize his son!"
"The emperor ordered, if the third elder brother violates the order, it is against the decree, and you really can't recognize your son."
As soon as Rong Xin walked out of Zhong Cui, he met the third elder brother.
When the third elder brother saw her, he couldn't help laughing and crying: "Did my mother actually find an aunt to be a lobbyist?"
Rong Xin put down Dongzhu, held her hand, and said to the third elder brother: "Concubine Rong is alone in the palace, it is inevitable that you will be thinking wildly, please be more considerate."
The third elder brother nodded, "Actually, even if Huang Ama didn't say anything, I am also going to drop out of school. I can live in the academy for more than two years. I am satisfied."
"Ms. Rongfei will be very happy to know your decision."
Concubine Rong was still waiting for the third brother in Zhongcui Palace, Rong Xin did not delay his time, and immediately asked him to go first, and then took Dongzhu back to Yuqing Palace.
They passed by Chengqian Palace when they saw two people in front, it was Lu Chen and a little eunuch. When they got close, they found that they were all happy.
"Female officer, rejoice! The Crown Princess is pregnant!"
Rong Xin was overjoyed, quickly calmed down, and asked Lu Chen, "Didn't he say to wait a few more days yesterday? Why did you ask for a doctor today?"
Prince Concubine's menstrual future this month, they have some guesses, and they are ready to confirm that there is no movement in two days and then ask the imperial doctor.
Lu Chen smiled and leaned into her ear, saying: "After you left the East Palace, the crown princess found that she was a little red, and she was disappointed and unwilling, so she hired an imperial doctor, it is not a big deal. hinder."
Rong Xin smiled again, shook the hand held by Dong Zhu and said, "Gege, you have another brother or sister."
