starling is not a bird

The fifth elder brother is the happiest person to return to the capital. When he left for the expedition, Mrs. Liu Jia of the side Fujin had just given birth to a baby. When he came back, the child was already full moon. His white and fat arms were like lotus joints. It's a pity that I didn't even catch up with the day, but the empress dowager in the palace remembered this grandson, but she raised the fifth elder brother herself.It can be almost as festive as when the Crown Prince got Hongxi, but now the Empress Dowager has also caught up with four generations living together, how can she not be proud?

But the palace is still lonely after all, besides the only seedling of the crown prince, the fifth elder brother is also the only great-grandson!Full moon wine to eat the whole day.

The sons and grandchildren are not around, and the empress dowager is inevitably lonely. Fortunately, there is news in the rooms of the elder brothers. Dafujin Ergenjue Luo's belly is bulging again, pointy, not like a female fetus , It's just that Dafujin Ergen felt that Luo Shi had given birth to too many daughters, and the empress dowager didn't ask, she was not embarrassed to guess whether it was a boy or a girl.

Jin Lin, the side fortune in the crown prince's room, is about to give birth. Although it is not the first time for the crown prince to be a father, having many sons is always a blessing, and having luxuriant branches is a great celebration, so he is in a good mood.

The third elder brother got married early, and there were quite a few people in the room. However, there has been no news of anyone in the past few years. The empress dowager brought Concubine Rong over to discuss it for a long time. It's just that being an elder is not easy to manage the affairs of the children and grandchildren's room. , there is no other way except to hint to Concubine Rong to be more careful.Finally, Sanfu Jin Dong E's family became pregnant, and the empress dowager finally let go of some worries, whether it is a man or a woman, it is a happy event!

Si Fujin Ulanara's face is also full of red light, even though the fourth elder brother is still injured, but looking at his Fujin's round belly, it is more effective than any medicine. It's not easy to smile a little bit!It is said that good things come in pairs. Si Fujin just won the reward from the Empress Dowager, and Li Shi, the side Fujin in the fourth elder brother's room, also has a big belly, and his wives and concubines are pregnant one after another.

Brother Seven, who was bedridden and recovering from his injuries, also heard news in the room. She also heard that Mrs. Fang Fujin Nala was vomiting acid.I deliberately found an opportunity to talk to Kangxi, and my son was also happy for a while. The mother and son made up their minds to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival!

Only the eighth elder brother Gege went, and the emperor was quite sympathetic, thinking that the concubine Yi said that the ninth elder brother and ten elder brothers are all grown up, and there will be more people in the room. How many to put?Otherwise, his elder brother has children, and it's not a problem for him to be desolate under his knees alone!

Only then did Kangxi realize that his two sons were not too young, and they should be admitted to Fujin at the age of 15. Now is the time to let people into the room, so don't miss it!Thinking that next year I will go to war again, the eighth prince's Fujin doesn't have time to get married, so I might as well wait until the war is over and the three younger ones will get married together and divide the mansion. At that time, everything will be appropriate, and besides, it will be more lively to hold happy events together Woolen cloth!These little ones play well at ordinary times. Thinking of his three sons standing tall and wearing red and wearing flowers to marry their daughters-in-law to worship the world, Kangxi couldn't help but twirling his beard and smiling, the son is growing up!As a human emperor, Ama, it's time to think about my son's blessing!

"Empress Dowager, although I don't dare to trouble you, you are still in charge of the draft. The eighth elder brother, the ninth elder brother, and the tenth elder brother are all grown up. It's still early. You should look at a few more daughters. This time it won't work. And next time, be sure to pick out the good ones for them!" Kangxi took this matter seriously.

The empress dowager squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "Just choose for your son, you don't want it?"

Kangxi laughed: "I'm someone who has grandchildren in my arms. Naturally, I'm going to be close to my old sons first! Otherwise, I'm afraid they will whisper behind their backs that I don't love them!"

The empress dowager pursed her lips on purpose: "Is there anyone in this world who loves his son more than the emperor? Let me know if you say it? Your father was not as good as you in those days!" In those days, apart from Concubine Dong E's son, who was there? On his mind?The empress dowager is not without ideas, but fortunately Kangxi succeeded to the throne, otherwise she would not know where she is!Thinking of this, the empress dowager felt that the word blessing was really rare!

Kangxi got up when he heard that, because his Huang Ama was mentioned, he smiled and didn't answer. Huang Ama's indifference when he was a child has always been a shadow in Kangxi's heart. After so many years, when he was mentioned again, Kangxi has already There is nothing to be reconciled to!

I am different from Emperor Shizu. Emperor Shizu only has his concubine Dong E in his heart, but I have this world in my heart.For the sake of a woman, Emperor Shizu gave up his responsibilities as the son of heaven, and also gave up his responsibilities as a son, wife, and father. Kangxi was never willing to judge him!

But Kangxi has his own pride. As an emperor, he created such a prosperous world, as a son of man, he took the lead in filial piety, and as a father, he cared and taught his children well. What regrets are there?Those unpleasant things are over after all.

: "Hehe, empress dowager, you are too well-respected. This year, remember to pick a few and put them in the rooms of the ninth and tenth elder brothers. They are both out of character, so we need to pick the calm ones. The eighth elder brother is steady, so it would be nice to add a few to him." He is well-educated and reasonable. It can’t just be the elder brother who blooms and bears fruit and is happy. The eighth elder brother should also have a child, don’t you think so?” Kangxi pondered his son’s temper one by one.

The empress dowager stretched out her hand and pushed the emperor: "Emperor, don't worry, I have remembered everything you asked me to do. Eighth and tenth elder brothers can talk about it. Ninth elder brother, why don't you tell Concubine Yi? She is someone else. Mother!"

Kangxi smiled: "Of course I want her to see it too, and it's up to you to make the final decision then!"

Kangxi knew very well that the Empress Dowager was a simple person, lonely in the palace, and had no entertainment, and besides, her Chinese was so mediocre that she couldn't even understand opera.Giving her something to do now would make her happier than anything else.The beautiful girl sent in still has to marry herself in the end, why not let the old lady kill time too?

Under the orders of the two masters in the palace, the Mid-Autumn Festival is naturally prepared carefully, but there are two big festivals waiting to be celebrated, the Qixi Festival and the Ghost Festival!Qixi Festival is nothing more than setting up colorful sheds and installing spider basins to beg for cleverness. This year, the imperial concubines and empresses in the palace are gone. Who is responsible for bringing the sixth palace to face "Jianguniuhegu Tianguixingjun" and "Heavenly Weaver Girl Fuxingjun" Perform a sacrifice?Who burns incense?Who is going to pray that the agriculture and mulberry in Zhi Province are prosperous?

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is the most obedient, they don’t report it at all, and only ask people to prepare: "Slaves have been careful, when the day of the ceremony, someone will come out to burn incense and salute, we just need to hold up the incense table to see clearly, don't send it to the wrong master. That's it!"

For the Mid-Autumn Festival, you need to prepare river lanterns, and for the Mid-Autumn Festival, you must first sew a purse of jade rabbit and osmanthus branches. Fresh lotus root is easy to get, but the cockscomb was not popular enough last year. Put more leaf mulch, and put it in the greenhouse to cover it, so the new master can't find fault with it!

In the midst of being busy and busy, the life of the little elder brothers is particularly easy. When the emperor and the empress dowager have no time, except for the morning and evening, the homework is also easy to perfunctory. Is it going to be a holiday?

Concubine Yi has already ventilated the nine elder brothers and the ten elder brothers. This time, the draft will add people to your room, so be careful with your skin, don't mess around!What Empress Yifei didn't say was, Old Nine, hand over the key chain that is pinned to your waist!Whose elder brother manages the house himself?Do you want face or not?

It's a pity that brother Jiu can't understand the voice of Empress Yifei, his biggest hobby every day is to light candles at night, hold an abacus, and pick how much money he has earned in his small coffers!Now elder brother Jiu is the most valuable among all elder brothers, even the crown prince can't compare to him!Since Brother Xizheng Jiu handed over the terrain map, Kangxi has credited him with credit.So Brother Nine's business went through the Ming Road, and under the banner of the imperial court, it expanded wantonly.

Brother Nine is worried about letting others take care of things. They all say that white wine is popular, and gold touches people's hearts. This wealth is earned by brothers and sisters. It must be managed well to be of great use!Brother Nine set a precedent. An elder brother fastened all the keys to the cabinets in the yard to his waist. The nurses and servants in the yard didn't trust anyone!Concubine Yi was so angry, how could she keep such a thing by herself?

Concubine Yi took her heart, so she blew on the pillow all day long, hoping that the emperor would appoint a noble woman to be the head of the house for her son, so that her son would not be laughed at!

Brother Jiu got advice after advice from his mother and concubine, but he didn't pay attention to it at all, and went to find his brother with a clang, the man is going to patrol the shop!

I feel that Luo Xianhua is very lucky. When he complained that the fourth elder brother was too cold, God made the eighth elder brother fall in love with him. When he complained that the eighth elder brother was too enthusiastic, God sent the elder brother to save him!

But I don't know if the good luck will run out?Jue Luo Xianhua doesn't want to think about this matter so far, it's rare to meet Xiu Mu, make an appointment with three or five friends to meet in a restaurant, drink a few light wines, talk and laugh about many things!

Friends and confidantes have not seen each other for many days, and they both feel that it is rare. It just so happens that someone brought a few pots of Du Ruo flowers to share with everyone.

Asking the store to bring up pens, inks, papers and inkstones, everyone expressed their heartfelt feelings. Speaking of it, Nalan Kuixu's poem "Magpie Bridge Immortal" was the head of the case: Pu Tao halos brocade, rouge touches snow, dyes the depth of famous flowers, and contains smoke. There are two postures of Yilu, each dipped, half of the autumn light.

Ziqiong cuts lightly, bright clouds are reflected, and it is difficult to cut with a skillful hand.Chu Cikong explained Fangzhou, fearing that this kind of thing would not realize that Luo Xianhua is also a good poet. After reading such a beautiful sentence, he couldn't help but sigh in admiration: "Brother Nalan's family has a long history, which is hard to come by!"

Nalan Kuixu raised his glass and drank it all down: "Brother Jueluo is flattering, the dead brother is far more talented than me, it's a pity that God forbids him to see his gray hair in the world!"

Thinking of Nalan Xingde's brilliant talent, those present couldn't help sighing, if this person didn't go, I'm afraid Master Mingzhu's position would not be so ups and downs, that person is the emperor's favorite minister!It's a pity that people's death is like a lamp going out, and it will not be easy for the Nalan family to go further!

Just talking and laughing, Na Qingfu smiled and said to Nalan Kui: "I said that on such a good day, your brother will never stop coming. It turns out that there is an errand!"

Nalan Kuixu followed his hand and looked downstairs, and sure enough, he saw his younger brother Kui Fang following the eighth elder brother, holding a lot of pieces scattered in his arms. Elder Brother also wore the full princely guard of honor.Seeing the helplessness on his younger brother's face, Nalan Kuixu smiled even more happily: "I made an appointment with him yesterday, and he said that His Highness the Eighth Prince had something to take him with him, but it was such an easy job, so you must laugh at him when you go back." Play a few words!"

However, Jue Luo felt that his back was starting to itch. Everyone said that His Highness was kind and polite, but he had been with him for many days, but he had had enough of tossing, so the straightforwardness of His Highness suits him, right?

Qingfu over there said, "Brother Nalan, why don't you go say hello to your brother?"

Nalan Kuixu looked at Qingfu and remained silent, Tong Jia was the adoptive mother of the fourth elder brother, and the fourth elder brother was naturally not bad for Qingfu, even if he followed the eldest elder brother, he also got a little respect from Ama.But in front of the eighth elder brother, the younger brother didn't know what status he was, so he went there rashly, it's not good to cause trouble for the younger brother!

He was thinking about it, but Jueluo pushed himself and said, "Don't think about it, they are coming up, get up quickly and prepare to say hello!"

Nine elder brothers had a great time with the festival of filial piety under the Mid-Autumn Festival. If eighth elder brother hadn't dragged him to the calligraphy and painting stalls and antique shops, today's harvest would have been even richer!The eighth elder brother squinted at his younger brother and said: "Is there anything good in the palace, do you want to buy it here? If you take it back, you won't be able to display it. It's a waste of money!"

Brother Jiu straightened his shoulders: "Can it be the same? The palace is all rewarded by others, but I earned it myself, and the flowers are comfortable!"

The eighth elder brother smiled and ignored him, and the tenth elder brother next to him looked at the guard holding the scroll behind him: "Mynah, when did you start liking calligraphy and painting?"

The eighth elder brother smiled mysteriously: "I don't like this, it's for giving away!"

Elder Brother Shi frowned and said: "These calligraphy and paintings are very crude, starling, you can't give them to Huang Ama!"

The eighth elder brother pursed his lips: "Of course this is not for Huang Ama, don't worry about it, I have my own use!" After speaking, he turned back and asked the ninth elder brother: "Old ninth, does your caravan go to Hebei? "

Brother Nine was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and thought for a while: "Brother, there is no caravan in summer, so if you have something to do, just tell me, what's the trouble in sending a team?"

The eighth elder brother thought for a while and nodded and said: "Alright, you can contact the Nakang family to see if they have a store in Hebei. !"

Brother Nine replied: "Myna, don't worry, let them take care of it properly!"

Eighth Brother said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that it's not easy to come forward directly. Come here and I'll tell you!"

Brother Nine went over with his ear.The eighth elder brother said softly: "You ask Nakang to do some charity, find some excuses for him, and let them report the damage to the Zhanghe River over there!"

"Brother, just say it straight, who do you want to help in your heart?" Brother Jiu is not an idiot, he has already understood what his brother means, isn't it just to distract others?

The eighth elder brother twisted his ears, and said affectionately: "You are smart, it is Zhangnan Academy! I want it to continue to open!"

The tenth elder brother next to him was already jealous: "Myna, I'm thirsty, let's go to the restaurant over there and have something to drink!" The eighth and ninth elder brothers smiled knowingly: "Don't worry, I will tell you when I go back!"

Elder Brother Shi curled his lips: "I don't care to listen to it, you two are the only ones with a lot of gossip!"

As soon as I got to the second floor, I saw a few people bowing and waiting!The two sides met each other, and sat down according to the priority. Ba Yago specially asked Nalan Kuifang to sit at his brother's table, and his side was served by another person, and Jue Luo Xianhua was pulled to his side. say.

Jue Luo Xianhua passed by, seeing his reluctance on his face, the eighth elder brother was happy: "Master Jue Luo, what do you think about following the elder brother?"

Jue Luo Xianhua was alert to the imminent danger like a rabbit: "If you return to the master, the slave will benefit a lot from following His Highness, I only wish to see each other later!"

The elder brother next to him all laughed: "Da Fujin is already pregnant with her fourth child, it's not Jue Luo's turn to meet our eldest brother!" Jue Luo made a sudden blush by slipping the tongue, and simply shut his mouth tightly and refused. speak out.

The eighth elder brother looked at the two brothers of the Nalan family over there, even though they were brothers, they did not dare to let go of their conversation, and simply turned their backs to ignore them.

Xiao Er has already come up to serve, and the crisp Beijing film announces the name of the tea. Although the tea eaten in the palace is good, the elder brothers still want to try something new.The eighth elder brother wanted Shiting bean green, the ninth elder brother wanted Yongxi Huoqing, and the tenth elder brother wanted Enshi Yulu.After a while, the teacups were set up, Xiao Er held up the brass pot and poured a bowl full of boiling water, and the cups of the elder brothers began to be different.Some are as thin as a cow's hair, some are frivolous like a bowl, and some are like a crescent moon. They look quite interesting.

He ordered some details at will, and served some fresh food to the guards over there. After all, they are relatives of the mother clan, and those who can take care of them should take care of one or two.

Eating the fragrant and delicious lotus root powder balls, Eighth Brother suddenly remembered something. He remembered that Lao Jiu's San Gege was related to Nalan's family. Did he marry Kui Xu's son or Kui Fang's son?

Biting the slippery ball, the eighth elder brother racked his brains to recall the memories, only remembering that the Fujin married by the old nine was also from Dong E's family, and seemed to be the prostitute of Zhenghongqi.

Lao Jiu’s daughter-in-law is from a good background, her grandfather is the first-class public Jeerben, and her great-grandfather is He Shuo Tu (who married Princess Dongguo’s younger brother Daishan’s daughter Princess He Heli) fourth son.The only bad thing is that the ninth daughter-in-law and the third brother's Fujin are cousins, and Qi Shi and Peng Chun are brothers!I don't know why, Lao Jiu's knees are also very desolate, but those nieces and daughters are cute!

After eating a bowl of lotus root noodles, Brother Ba finally remembered that Sangege married Yongfu, the son of Kuifang, and the grandson of Prince Kang Lijie!

But Kui Fang went early, his two sons, An Zhao and Yuan Pu, were renamed Yongshou and Yongfu by his nosy Huang Ama, and they were adopted by Nalan Kui!I remember that Nalan Kuixu didn't have a son. After his death, all his property was entrusted to Lao Jiu, and Yongfu Yongshou didn't get it at all!

So which in-law should we please now?The eighth elder brother is depressed, and looking at the ninth elder brother who is not worried, he is almost angry, and I will try to please your daughter-in-law's future husband, can you stop being so happy?

Speaking of which, the eighth elder brother didn't want the ninth son to marry the daughter of Dong E's family, but also preferred his niece to marry Yongshou. At any rate, she was the deputy governor of the Zhenghuang Banner Manchu army, and later married the deputy governor of the Zhenghuang Banner Han army. Daughter, she looks more reliable than his brother!

It's a pity that the eighth elder brother's inner cries were not heard. Everyone drank tea and ate snacks in a friendly manner. Over there, Nalan Kuixu was seriously discussing with his younger brother how to serve the country.

They both feel so awkward!
