Prince Heng [Qing wear]

"So Yangui, you sent fifth elder brother's pet dog to my house?" Shi Shi couldn't help laughing as she looked at the fidgeting little nephew in the next seat.

"Yes, Yangui has caused trouble for aunt." Shi Yangui lowered his head guiltily.

"There's no trouble at all." Shi Shi felt that it was really interesting for the old-fashioned little nephew to change into this childish look, "But if the fifth elder brother's pet dog is sick——"

Shi Yangui cupped his hands and said: "Auntie, you don't have to worry, Yangui will naturally explain it clearly to the fifth elder brother."

Shi Shi put down the teacup: "Then you leave the dog and the eunuch behind. Xiaoru and Mu'er should be piling up snow in the back garden right now. They haven't seen you for a long time. Go and see them."

"Yes, my nephew is leaving." Shi Yangui bowed and left.

The back garden of the Minister's Mansion.

"He Tara Huru, what are you doing! Cousin—" The little girl looked at the snow rabbit destroyed by her younger brother, and immediately complained to her cousin.

"Huu Ru, you are bullying your sister again, are you looking for a beating?" As the older brother, Qi Buchen threatened his little cousin with a fist.There is no way, there is only such an aunt in the family, and the whole family loves her, even Mafa, who is the most strict with children, dotes on this little sister.What's more, it's true that Lu Ru hasn't been beaten for quite a while.

"Brother, don't be like this. I just want to help her paint the snow rabbit. Who knew that snow rabbit is so fragile?" Ru Ru argued, "Brother, don't come here! Qi Buchen, I am you too Brother, don't come here, don't come here." Seeing his cousin walking towards him with his fists waving, Lu Ru backed away step by step, and happened to run into Shi Yangui's arms who had just approached the back garden.

Shi Yangui cupped his hands towards Qi Buchen: "Brother Qi Buchen, how is he doing?"

Qi Buchen greeted his hand gracefully: "You have always been well, and you must be the same."

After seeing the ceremony, Qi Buchen and Shi Yangui stretched out their claws to Lu Ru who was about to slip away, and grabbed him: "Come here, brat! Come with me to apologize to your sister." Qi Buchen yelled Shi Yangui smiled awkwardly, and walked together to the small pavilion in the center of the garden.

"Cousin, help me, cousin!" Yu Ru, struggling under Qi Buchen's hands, asked the gentle and refined Shi Yangui for help.

"You made Xiaoru angry again! Anyway, you are the one who caused trouble every time, so you should go and apologize to Xiaoru obediently." Although I don't know the reason, but judging from the past practice of this brat, it must be to trouble her again sister.Shi Yangui suddenly thought of the fifth elder brother. Compared with Ru Ru's mischievousness, the fifth elder brother seems to have never done anything out of line. From this point of view, although the two have similar personalities, the fifth elder brother is more sensible in comparison. .As for the kid, Ruru, it's worth not mentioning it.

The three of them approached the small pavilion, and the maid on one side was grilling venison over a charcoal fire.A cute three-headed little girl was waiting obediently.

Seeing Shi Yangui, the little girl's eyes lit up: "Brother, you are here. It's really great, the venison is almost ready, brother and cousin, come and taste it."

"Okay." The two nodded.

Hu Ru approached his sister step by step: "Sister, I was wrong. I shouldn't have broken your snow rabbit, I'm sorry. Don't be angry with me."

"Humph—forget it, who told you that you are my younger brother. Don't be so naughty in the future." The little girl muttered.

"Yeah, I promise. I'll make another one for you later. Sister, you're so kind." Juru took Chunru's hand and acted like a baby.

"Forget it, just your hands, don't make trouble for me. Be good, go eat." Chunru was helpless.Although she knew that this kid did so many mischievous things because he liked her and wanted to attract her attention, but it was like this every day, even a saint couldn't stand it.This smelly brother, let's teach slowly.

Chunru said to Shi Yangui: "Brother, I have finished copying the volumes of "Jinshilu" that you borrowed from me last time, and I will ask the servant girl to bring them back to you later."

"It's okay, I don't plan to read those volumes recently. Just put them here with you. Recently, I sorted out its preface and postscript from the study, and I have brought them. You may as well Have a look." Shi Yangui laughed.Strange to say, women nowadays love poetry and vernacular books, but his cousin is different, preferring unofficial stories and rubbings of gold and stone.It's also fortunate that she was born in such a family, where her temperament can be controlled, and she doesn't know what kind of good husband she will find in the future.

Chunru smiled brightly: "Then thank you brother. I knew that brother is the best, and he is not at all like a brat who troubles me all day long."

Hu Ru pursed her mouth: "Sister, didn't you agree that you don't care about it?"

Amid the laughter, the 22nd year of Kangxi has passed, and the 23rd year of Kangxi has come in the expectation of the people.

In the first month of this year, a major incident occurred in the court.

"What's the big case, second brother?" Fifth elder brother tugged at Prince Yinreng's sleeve.

"How dignified it is to pull and pull. Look at your fourth brother, and then look at you, do you have a bit of royal bearing?" Yinfeng tried hard to pull the sleeve back from the fifth elder brother's hand, but the fifth elder brother's hand It stuck to Yinfeng's sleeve like a dog's plaster, and he couldn't shake it off no matter how hard he tried.

"Second brother, second brother, let's continue. You go and get a plate of sugar melons." The fifth elder brother ordered the little eunuch beside him.

"Xiao Wu, you should have heard of the book, and even ate it." Yinfeng lost his temper completely.

"Come here, second brother, fourth brother, eat sugar melon. I have compared, this hazelnut candy and this corn candy are the best." The fifth elder brother passed the sugar plate between the crown prince and the fourth elder brother, "Second brother, let's continue."

"Hey, I really can't do anything about you." Yinfeng opened his mouth and bit off the candy handed over by elder brother Wu, and then said, "Little Wu, you should know Shang Zhixin."

"The previous Prince Pingnan, Shang Zhixin, I remember that he was arrested and interrogated by Khan Ama's decree because of his brutality and domineering, his unspeakable words, and the uncertainty between the rebel Wu Sangui and the court. Let the crime be punished. Second brother, what does this case have to do with him?" Fifth elder brother was puzzled.

Yinfeng stuffed a piece of candy into Fifth Elder Brother's mouth: "In this case, the relationship between Monk Zhixin and Monk Zhixin may not be irrelevant, but it is somewhat involved. You know, Khan Ama is kind, although the handling Shang Zhixin was forgiven, but his family was pardoned. Shang Zhixin held his own in Guangzhou and accumulated a lot of money. Does Xiao Wu know where he got so much money?"

"I don't know, does fourth brother know?" Xiao Wu looked at fourth brother.

"Guangzhou is close to the sea and Guangdong, and the imperial court allows the Netherlands to pay a tribute every eight years, and pay tribute in Guangzhou. Coupled with the private maritime trade, I think it will be profitable." The fourth elder brother replied.

Yinfeng continued: "Your fourth brother is right. After Shang Zhixin's death, the imperial court sent people to clear up the dirty money and confiscate the property of the officials. I didn't expect the money to be confiscated, but it fed a lot of rats. The former Ministry of Punishment The servant, Yichang A, and the former governor of Guangdong, Jin Jun, together engaged in malpractice for personal gain, embezzled the soldiers’ salaries in Guangzhou and the property that should have been confiscated by Shang Zhixin, the former king of Pingnan, and accepted bribes from Shang Zhixin’s businessman Shen Shangda. They were afraid that Shen Shangda would report them, So he took the lead in killing Shen Shangda to silence him."

"Damn it, these people are really hateful." The fifth elder brother sighed.

"Corrupt officials should be killed!" Si elder brother said silently.

Yinfeng sighed: "That Shen Shangda was originally a dark move by Khan Ama to find out the official circles in Guangzhou, but he died so unclearly."

"Is Shen Shangda important?" Fifth elder brother asked doubtfully.

"Shen Shangda is the head of the kings and merchants in Guangzhou. His relationship with the official circles in Guangdong is intricate and entangled. Khan Ama has always wanted to ask him for evidence of corruption and perverting the law in the southern officialdom. Who knows that Chan Tahai, the current servant of the Criminal Ministry When he was ordered to try the case, he actually reported that Shen Shangda hanged himself, and even said that if Shen Shangda's death had other hidden reasons, he would be willing to suffer the death penalty." Yinfeng sneered.

"Isn't this Zen Tahai a bit stupid? Isn't this place without silver 300 taels?" Fifth elder brother took a pine nut candy from the sugar plate and put it in his mouth, "What does the death of a businessman have to do with him? What kind of poisonous oath did you make? How did this person become the servant of the Ministry of Punishment in the first place? He has no brains at all."

"Ahem, Xiao Wu." The fourth elder brother gave the fifth elder brother a warning look. Of course, Khan Ama accepted the position of servant, and Xiao Wu was still so outspoken.

"So the more Zen Tahai swears that there is no inside story, the more Khan Ama thinks there is a lot of inside information. Sure enough, it was found out that Zen Tahai accepted bribes from Yichang A and Jin Jun, and helped them kill people to silence them." Yin Yin Reng rubbed Fifth Brother's little head, Xiao Wu's dazed look is really funny.

"Then what's going on now?" The fifth elder brother opened the big hand on his head.

Yinfeng: "Khan Ama ordered severe punishment and thoroughly investigated the case. Detain Chan Tahai and strictly discuss and punish him with Yichang Ah, Jin Jun and others."

"Oh oh oh, does that mean that the imperial court is going to reopen the sea trade again?" The fifth elder brother suddenly took a strange direction.

"Why did Xiao Wu suddenly mention Haimao?" Yinfeng was a little puzzled, what was going on in this kid's little head.

"Hey? Isn't it? There is chaos in the north, the court is short of money, and the sea trade has benefited a lot. That's why Khan Ama wants to thoroughly investigate the official circles in the south. What's more, Jinghaihou killed the last remnant of the former Ming Dynasty last year." , Now is a good time to reorganize the south and reopen the sea trade." The fifth elder brother was puzzled.

"Well, maybe, but Khan Ama didn't tell me." These things obviously have nothing to do with the corruption case just now, but why did Xiao Wu's words sound reasonable? Could it be that I am not as good as Xiao Wu? ?Impossible, Prince Yinreng threw this terrible thought out of his mind, "Okay, the story is over, let's pass on the meal. Gu'er is eating at Elder Brother's."

"Yes." The people around the prince went down to pass on the meal.

Yinfeng always feels that he has forgotten something today, ah, by the way, today he is clearly ordered by Han Ama to see if Xiao Wu is really working hard to learn martial arts again, if it is too much, he will stop him, why? Did you tell Xiao Wu about the court affairs?What's more, this kid is obviously listening to it as a story.How did he get caught by Xiao Wu?

"Second brother, is there anything else? Is there anything new recently?" Fifth elder brother asked with big innocent eyes.

"No, no, Xiao Wu, why are you so busy. Oh, by the way, Khan Ama plans to tour the south this year, but it's definitely not for you." Yinfeng laughed.

"Nahhan Ama won't take you with me either, you can't put all your eggs in one basket. I won't be sad if you are with me, second brother." The fifth elder brother mocked back.

Yinreng bent Xiao Wu's head with his index finger: "Stinky boy, why are you so reticent when I hear your words? Who is the egg?"

"If the words are rough, the rationale is not rough, whoever admits who is it." The fifth elder brother made a face at Yinfeng.

"I'm too lazy to quarrel with you. Xiaosi, what's the matter? I've noticed from just now that you've been in a daze for a long time." Yinfeng asked the silent fourth brother.

"Huh? Second brother, I'm fine. I was just thinking that it would be great if there were no corrupt officials in this world." The fourth elder brother replied with firm eyes.

"When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when people are watching, there will be no disciples. How can there be fewer corrupt officials in this world? We can only hope that they will be less greedy and leave a way for the people to survive." Yinfeng said with emotion.

How can the truth in this world be so strange? How can it be to ask corrupt officials to be less corrupt instead of eliminating corrupt officials?The fourth elder brother asked himself, if one day he has the right to dismiss corrupt officials, can this world be clearer?
