starling is not a bird

At the end of the year to fight the famine again, the Ministry of Internal Affairs started to have a headache with the annual regulations list inside and outside the palace. The Emperor Kangxi's harem is not too much, but the elder brothers who come out to open a mansion and build a dental office when they grow up will spend money. !In the past, when I was young, my elder brothers were just basic necessities, food, shelter, and some pocket money. Now they come out to start a family and start a business. Raising Fujin and side Fujin all have to be paid by the emperor. , Adding and subtracting less than twenty people can still afford it.

Ba Prince's mansion also got something this year. Huang Ama said before leaving Beijing that he promised himself to go to the House of Internal Affairs to collect daily money. Although it is not much, it is also Huang Ama's wish, so he asked someone to go to lock it up early. Come, it's easy to distribute.

There is only one Fujin in the eighth elder brother's house, and the things he brings back are limited, but they are pythons, makeup, and japanese. The only thing that eighth elder brother likes is the ten Ula mink furs.

He was not raised by his mother and concubine in the palace back then, and it was not easy for the concubine Jia to surpass the concubine Hui to reward him. not much.This stuff is no better than anything else, good leathers are all found in the royal hunting grounds, and you can't buy them in the world, so you can only save a little bit.

I went through Fujin’s daily expenses again. I was never short of money in my previous life, so I really didn’t worry about it. It’s just that this time, the eighth elder brother was always afraid that he would be too high-profile. He obviously had a lot of money, but he taught Fujin every now and then. It's a blessing, too much use is not a good omen, so that everyone in the house dare not be too extravagant.

Occasionally, the eighth elder brother looks at the expenses in the mansion, and I really feel that the daily expenses given to Fujin by the Ministry of Internal Affairs alone can feed himself, plus Fujin, a few Gege, and the dozen or so people who are close to him Of course, the expenses of other people in the mansion are also there, but Xiaojiu's shop is too hospitable. Fresh vegetables are sent over, and they are sent again before they are finished.

Even all kinds of daily necessities are provided monthly, and even the days are not bad. The eighth elder brother has also sought out the ninth elder brother. What's the matter, help your poor brother?Grandpa also has Zhuangzi!There are also vegetables in it!Brother Jiu bulged his eyes and said, "Except for vegetables? My brother doesn't have a cloth shop or an oil shop under his name. The ones I send are all from his own shop. Isn't it true that my brother doesn't have shares in it? I have my own food. What's so great? In the future, the old ten will give it to me as well!"

The eighth elder brother thinks about it again, being raised by the emperor is also raising, being raised by the younger brother is also raising, forget it, let the mansion buy it by itself when the population increases in the future, to be honest, the eighth brother hates the mansion more As usual, the stewards used to buy a job to run amok outside and damage their own reputation.

From time to time, I called Ma Qiyun to beat him, and found out that his wife was in Jiangxi, and the eighth elder brother rewarded him with 50 taels of silver, and asked him to hire someone to bring my mother into the capital and put her in a village in the suburbs. Let Ma Qiyun choose an adoptive son from his nephew, so that he can go out of the house to live when he gets old!Ma Qiyun knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously a dozen times.

The other housekeepers in the mansion were very envious when they heard this, Ma Qiyun said triumphantly: "We are loyal and considerate for the master, the master naturally misses the slave, as the master said, the big guy will do his job well, Without grace!"

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, although the eighth elder brother was not in the mansion, the eighth elder brother led the princesses to manage the palace in an orderly manner. When the eighth elder brother came back, it was another reward, and the hearts of all the stewards were extremely warm.

He, he, Ragge, ever since the doctor gave birth, Fujin has spared her daily routine, and specially opened a small kitchen for her in the yard, so that she can eat whatever she wants.Ever since he had this child in his arms, he had been vomiting and feeling sick all day long, and Fujin often went to see her by himself, and even picked the best items for her to choose from.

One day, he he Ragge was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch, Fujin's personal maid brought in a plate of newly made jewelry, he he he Ragge looked at the plate, there were all kinds of brilliant literary talents, and he lost his temper. After rewarding the maid with money, he let someone put it in front of him to play with.

"Brother Qing, come and take a look. Do you think this golden lotus crab hairpin is more beautiful, or this green gold Fangsheng?" He, Ragage, has always liked brightly colored objects, so the two most eye-catching ones were naturally the first to be brought out. .

Brother Qing hurriedly came forward, carefully looked at his Ragga's hand, and said with a smile: "The coral pendant hanging from the crab hairpin looks good, and the rice beads on Fang Sheng grow well. Looks good, Gege, you can change it every day with one!"

He dragged someone to hold the mirror, Bibi on the left, Bibi on the right, very happy, gestured for a while, and suddenly became unhappy again: "Brother Qing, why didn't you come to see me these days?" ah?"

As soon as Qing brother heard this, he knew it was bad, and the master was about to start thinking wildly again, so he hurried forward to take the mirror over and let him take a clearer picture of his brother: "Master, you are so beautiful, and you are pregnant with Grandpa's child, Grandpa How can you not think about it, these few days must be busy!"

He slapped his lips: "What's the matter with being pregnant? I don't know if it will be born, and even if it is born, I don't know if it will be raised. What is there to worry about? My ex-son Fujin also said Well, I can't serve you, so I have to open the faces of those in the mansion and put them in my room to wait on you! There are too many people who give birth to you, can he think about it?"

Brother Qing smiled and said: "Are there many? Where are there many? You are the only one in the house, master? Or two in a row! No one is as lucky as you! In the morning, the small kitchen is the one that the master loves to use." Sweet-scented osmanthus cake, the servants were so confused that they forgot to bring it!"

Turning around, he said: "Xiao Ru, go to the kitchen and bring the master's snacks, and then make a cup of flower dew and give it to the master!"

He dragged himself to sit upright, and asked Brother Qing to play with the Jiulianhuan in the room: "Brother Qing, it's better for you and me, and I think about everything to make me comfortable."

Brother Qing said with a smile: "Serving the master is a servant's job, and you should be beaten if you don't serve well!" While talking, he went to the room and brought Jiu Lianhuan, and came out with a pillow in his arms, and gave him a laggard Snuggle your waist.

In the past few days, the two great Buddhas in the palace were not there, Concubine Tong was also a trouble-free person, everything in the palace was kept simple, life was very comfortable, even the maids in the palace felt relieved.

The concubine Jia in the palace was also very happy holding her little son. The child was white and strong, and he could already call her mother in a childlike voice. Thinking about the eighth brother who went out of the palace, he was already Lord Belle, I heard that Ge Ge in the mansion is also pregnant, and the concubine Jia can say that everything is going well, and she looks radiant every day.Even if Emperor Kangxi took his new favorite nobles of the Han family to go outside the Great Wall, it would not affect her happy mood in the slightest.

The Crown Princess Shi Shi sat in the palace of the Concubine Jia, her hand holding the handkerchief motionless, smiling as she watched her little uncle learn to speak, the Crown Prince had ordered him to go to the palaces for a walk if there was nothing to do, The younger brothers are all grown up and have gone out of the palace. It is inevitable that the concubines will be lonely.

The Crown Princess is not a fool, how can she not understand what her husband is thinking?How many brothers are there who went out to open the mansion?How many are worthy of a husband to win over his mother and concubine?But Concubine Jia is a quiet person, and she doesn't speak easily, which made the Crown Princess unable to do anything.

What's more, who doesn't have eyes to see the discord between eldest elder brother and his husband?Although the Crown Princess has not been pregnant yet, she can understand the concubine Jia, and her son is considered to have status in front of the emperor if he follows the elder brother, so why jump out and be scolded by others?

Concubine Jia thinks even more deeply, her son is just a younger brother of humble background if he follows the crown prince, but it is different if he follows the elder brother, at least he has deep feelings!The position of the crown prince is there, but as long as the emperor doesn't go for a day, this matter may not be certain, otherwise why doesn't the emperor deal with Mingzhu thoroughly?

The two women with different thoughts sat opposite each other for a long time, nothing to talk about except clothes and pastries, and looked at each other with smiles, but neither of them could see clearly what was behind the smiles.

The crown prince's father-in-law, Shi Wenbing, the third uncle Shi Wenbing, and his father, went there in the same year as the son-in-law Huashan. Speaking of which, it's not that the emperor doesn't love his son. The elders left so early, but the crown prince will be able to make several people less in the future.

In desperation, the emperor had no choice but to promote Shi Lin, Shi Wenbing's younger brother. Such an upstart should be more attached to his master, so that the future crown prince will not be upset.It's like how much the emperor hated Suo'etu's arbitrariness of power, and how much he liked Shi Lin's loyalty and ability.

Before leaving, the emperor specially ordered the Crown Prince that Yin Huaxing, the general soldier of Ningxia, would go to Beijing to report his duties. This man is brave and good at fighting and has a good governance. .

The crown prince is really happy to hear this, Shi Lin is the uncle of the crown princess, why shouldn't he be close?What's more, Shi Lin has served as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi for many years. With such a high position and authority, she is the person who can be used in the future.And Yin Huaxing's reputation was greatly shaken in the battle of Zhao Moduo, Huang Ama is going to give himself a man!

He personally used the seal of the crown prince, conferred on Yin Huaxing the position of Tuo Salahah, promoted him to be the admiral of Guangdong, and rewarded Shi Lin with peacock feathers and many belongings. Please say hello to the princess!

The eighth brother also heard that Yin Huaxing was coming, he didn't want to win over this person, but there was someone beside him that he wanted to care about, so he sent someone to quietly post and asked Yin Huaxing to come out and meet him.
