starling is not a bird

In November, Emperor Kangxi issued an edict to appoint Li Guangdi as the governor of Zhilu. It has only been two months now, and Emperor Kangxi couldn't wait any longer, so he issued an edict to urgently recruit Li Guangdi to Beijing and ask Li Guangdi face to face.

And Li Guangdi regards this opportunity as a good opportunity for him to regain his favor. He didn't plan to celebrate the new year in winter, so he led people to explore the Zhanghe River and Hutuo River in person under the cold wind, and urged Fang Yulang to work day and night to make the river map. come out.

This time Kangxi summoned him, Li Guangdi was full of joy, the imperial prelude was right, and the river management plan he came up with was perfect everywhere, Kangxi nodded repeatedly, and praised Prince Yu: "Prince Yu, come and see, this is the best plan." He is an important minister of our dynasty!" Prince Yu also said a lot with a smile.

Kangxi thought about it and said: "I know those sour rots love to talk about morality. You should be pragmatic this time, and don't be swayed by those sour rots!" In his heart, he knelt on his knees and kowtowed: "The minister must work hard and live up to the emperor's grace!"

After getting Kangxi's order, Li Guangdi didn't go to see anyone, and he refused to go out except packing his luggage at home and preparing to go.Instead, he specially asked his housekeeper to go to Brother Nine's shop to do some rituals before setting off.

In the evening, Li Guangdi was already thinking about the treatment plan he had drawn up. The steward outside had returned from Brother Jiu's shop. Li Guangdi looked at the steward, and the steward hurriedly replied, "My lord, the little one went over there." , the stewards said, all the things will be delivered tomorrow.”

Li Guang nodded: "Is there anything else for you to bring back?"

The steward shook his head: "No, my lord, I didn't even take money from the villain."

Li Guangdi frowned: "Didn't you insist on paying?"

The steward smiled and said, "The steward said it was the master's order. Your lord governs the river for the benefit of the people. A little thing is just a wish, and it's just a thank you for the people of the world."

Li Guangdi waved his hand to let the manager go down to eat, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, although Brother Nine is young, he has shop caravans all over the world, but there is no need for Babaer to please him!He is the son of the dragon and the grandson of the phoenix, and there are the crown prince and the eldest son of the emperor on it. Even if he is fighting for the throne, he will not be able to turn to him. What does this mean?

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't come up with a clue, and then I remembered that I heard people talking about the affairs in the palace, saying that the eighth elder brothers, the ninth elder brothers, and the ten elder brothers have always been friends. Could it be that the eighth elder brothers are planning to win me over?

Seeing that the eighth elder brother also became Baylor, and his mother concubine also got the concubine position, it was obvious that the emperor valued him. Now that he is following the crown prince, it is impossible to guarantee that he will not be a Heshuo prince in the future. What can I do to entertain him?

I couldn't help being anxious for a while, and finally made up my mind not to offend him. If there is anything I can promise in the future, I still try my best to do it. After all, I can feel at ease after paying back his favor!

The palace is also intensively preparing for the New Year's Eve. This year, many princes have been entrusted to leave the palace. There are new children in the palace. Compared with previous years, it is a little more deserted. Emperor Kangxi specially ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to remember to prepare for the New Year's Eve for the elder brothers. He also made a decree to let the elder brothers bring Fujin into the palace to celebrate the New Year together.

Hearing this news, the happiest ones are the nine elder brothers and the tenth elder brothers. Since they came back, they are the biggest in school, and every time they want to put on airs, they see the annoying face of the thirteen elder brothers.

Fortunately, the thirteenth elder brother's mother and concubine were ill, and the emperor granted him a leave of absence, allowing him to serve Zhang Jia's entourage. Although the ninth elder brother was glad that he was not in school and had more authority, he was even more jealous of Kangxi's giving ten The privilege of the third elder brother.

With the fourteenth elder brother performing martial arts papers, life is quite comfortable, but it is not easy to go out of the palace to find elder brother to play. Now that the eighth elder brother is going to come to the palace during the Chinese New Year, the ninth elder brother is very happy.

Although the fourteenth elder brother is small, he is also the heart treasure of the concubine Defei. On weekdays, he will do everything with the ninth elder brother and ten elder brothers. Nosy.Concubine Min Zhang Jia's illness became more and more serious day by day, the thirteenth elder brother was worried about his mother, and was pregnant with a sharp knife to cut her butt, but was stopped by the accompanying palace servants and reported to the emperor.

Although the emperor reprimanded the thirteenth elder brother with a stern face, he praised him behind his back, so that the empress dowager even called the concubine Tong who was in charge of the harem to speak, and asked her to be more careful about Concubine Min's body.

Even the thirteenth elder brother received many rewards afterwards, and Kangxi also visited Concubine Min Zhang Jia several times, and the concubine De didn't even frown when she prayed to the Guanyin statue.

On the contrary, the concubines of the Han Dynasty were very jealous. The emperor had been out of the fortress for several months, who hadn't been free for several months?It's rare that the emperor is back, who doesn't look forward to Chengen Yulu, a man and a half woman who is full of love, and has someone to lean on in the future!It's okay for those concubines to say that they have children by their side, and their own status is enough.Those little Han concubines, who entered the palace not long ago, were all young, how could they have any sincerity towards the emperor who was nearly half a hundred years old?

There are a lot of things to do during the Chinese New Year, and it is rare for the emperor to have time to turn over the sign, and he has to spare several days to visit Concubine Min. I heard that he is planning to give Concubine Min the official concubine position during the Chinese New Year, because he has a clever son !

The little concubines of Han were bitten to the point of being disfigured, and the other concubines also thought about themselves, and hated the thirteenth elder brother for lying to Huang Ama even more than Concubine Min.

Concubine Yi nodded at Brother Jiu's head and hated iron and steel: "You are raising a son, why is his son so smart? Are you so stupid?"

How could Brother Jiu be willing to take this kind of anger, sniffing his nose and saying: "Why is my son so stupid? Madam, look for yourself, the white marble Guanyin in the room, the gold-plated eight-treasure bracelet on your wrist, which one is not filial to your son? Thirteen Elder brother, what can he do? Apart from deceiving Huang Ama, what can he do? Last time he bullied Fifth Brother!"

Concubine Yi raised her eyebrows: "I'm raising the prince elder brother, right? I married the emperor in this palace, not a vegetable seller in the south of the Yangtze River, right? So what if you earn a thousand or ten thousand? You are the prince elder brother. Zifengsun, Jingtianwei doesn’t want your plenary meeting, can you learn how to govern the country and secure the country? It’s shameful to pull your abacus beads all day long!”

Ninth elder brother's grievance against thirteenth elder brother was even worse. When he went back to school to see the well-behaved fourteenth, he felt more and more that thirteenth elder brother owed a lesson. Why cut shares?Why are you doing it in front of people?Isn't it just trying to be stopped?Isn't it just fishing for fame?What kind of filial son are you pretending to be?

Lao Tzu is also a filial son, okay?I won't let go of your vain airs!

Brother Nine was bored under the covers for several nights, and finally came up with an idea.

On the second day, the ninth elder brother dragged the tenth elder brother and chatted for a long time, and finally the two made an appointment to go out of the palace to talk to the eighth elder brother.

The eighth elder brother was also at home watching people pack up Dongyue's belongings, not only the palace rewarded silver objects, but also his own Zhuangzi, and those who were filial to the shop had to distribute them one by one for the festival.

In my heart, I wanted to give Fujin a chance to be the housekeeper, so I asked people to send many orders to the back, and let Fujin think about it. It was the first time for Fujin to manage things like this. The husband next to him looked at him encouragingly with a cup, Fujin The courage is also enough, and according to the teaching of my mother at home, I distribute them one by one, stopping from time to time to look at the expression of the eighth elder brother, and seeing the eighth elder brother smiling all the time, I feel relieved.

The population in Baylor's mansion is not large, and the master is only a dozen or so people, and the food is not wasteful, but there are a lot of people who use it, and the internal and external managers of the village have to reward them well, but most of the time is about half a day.

Gege from the Shang family obediently stood aside to serve the director of tea. He Lagege was authorized to go to the room to take care of the children, and the other Geges also stood on both sides to serve.

When the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother came, this place was not finished yet, the eighth elder brother dropped the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile: "You can do the rest according to your discretion, it is very good as it was just now, I see you You are also smart, you can’t go wrong, I went out first.”

The eighth elder brother heard the ninth elder brother's grunt, and said coldly: "He can climb along the pole, and his mother is sick like that, and he still has the heart to fight for favor. He is really cold-blooded and ruthless!"

Elder Brother Ten feels sad every time he thinks of Concubine Wen Xi, who passed away early, and he can't help but say at this moment: "There is a total of one Huang Ama and one Empress, he is heartless and only cares about one! If you are really filial, why don't you secretly cut him off?" Let people know after combining the medicinal soup?"

The eighth brother nodded, walked over to touch the tenth brother's face and said, "Don't be impatient, the big brother is about to make a big move, and then you can get a little bit of light!"

Brother Jiu shook his head: "I don't want to follow Big Brother, brother, I have other ways!"

The eighth elder brother looked at him and said, "Hey, my younger brother has ambition, okay, tell the elder brother, let the elder brother give you the staff!"

The tenth elder brother came up to him, whispering in his ears for a long time, the eighth elder brother nodded again and again, and finally said: "The method is a good method, but the effect is not so fast!"

Brother Jiu said without difficulty: "My mother said that I was expected to have the talents of all over the world. If this thing is done, isn't it considered capable?"

The eighth elder brother smiled: "You are still too young. It is a good thing for you to help Li Guangdi, but is it all yours in the end? Li Guangdi is an important minister appointed by Huang Ama, and the credit is first of all Huang Ama. of."

After a pause, he continued, "Besides, what if Li Guangdi refuses to ask you to help?"

Elder Brother Ten was amazed: "Why is he in such a rush to help?"

Eighth Brother said with a smile: "He has just recovered, and he needs credit to support him. If you intervene, you will make him hate you!"

Ninth Brother's face wrinkled, and Eighth Brother rubbed his nose: "But Old Ninth, you don't have to worry too much, you have already helped Li Guangdi! Don't worry, he will definitely give you an answer later at most." Great job!"

: "Don't worry, brother will vent your anger for you at that time!" Eighth elder brother is sure to promise!
