starling is not a bird

The eighth elder brother who was relieved of his errands did not panic, and explained everything in his hand, so he stayed in his palace with peace of mind. He got up early every day to practice calligraphy, boxing, and occasionally watered the flowers in the garden. It's not interesting to take care of those flowers and trees.

Ba Fujin was a little worried at first, but seeing her husband so calm and relaxed, she felt a little more at ease. Even if her natal family sent someone to inquire, she also learned a little more deeply, and avoided the question with a smile. I took several reassurance pills for my natal family to eat.

There are also some rumors in the court, which are nothing more than rumors. Kangxi and the crown prince still have a deep father-son relationship, and they are getting closer in government and politics, and they always have the same position.Seeing that the eldest elder brother became even more angry, and got closer to Tong Jia's family, even the fourth elder brother was regarded as Tong Jia's to win over, but the fourth elder brother bowed and stood next to the prince, refusing to do so at all. Talk to big brother, but make big brother angry.

Long Kedo, who is at home behind closed doors, is not lonely either. He guards his beloved woman in the mansion, hugs his youngest son, and wears linen clothes to pretend to be a dutiful son. After playing tricks, Longkodo gained a lot of weight.

The ninth elder brother was sent by Kangxi to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be in charge of purchasing, the fifth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were thrown into the Eight Banners barracks stationed in Gyeonggi to practice, and the eighth elder brother was completely left out in front of the door.

At the end of the rare month, the fierce tenth elder brother came back to take a rest, spun around his house, and then rode straight to the eighth elder brother's house on horseback.

When the tenth elder brother arrived, the eighth elder brother was doing Nanquan in the small garden at the back, with his braids piled up on his head, his long clothes gone, and his bunt looked very energetic.

Elder Brother Shi rarely saw his elder brother move his arms and legs, and he became excited when he saw it, and he shouted, "Brother, how many tricks shall we do?"

Now that he took off his outer clothes, he tied up his lower clothes and took a stride before rushing forward. The eighth elder brother also regained his energy, wiped the sweat from his forehead, clenched his fists and started to fight the tenth elder brother.

More than 20 strokes back and forth, sweeping the legs, praying mantis fist, heart-warming feet and chopping in the face. Before the tenth elder brother made any big movements, the eighth elder brother felt strenuous. Although the younger brother still kept his hands, the eighth elder brother felt that he I couldn't keep up with it for a while, and my arms and legs were going to be numb. I hurriedly smiled and held my brother's hand and said, "Okay, okay, you won, but let me take a breath!"

Elder Brother Shi closed his fist and said with a smile, "How about it, brother, have I become stronger again?"

The eighth brother sat on the stone bench, took the warm tea brought by the waiter and drank it all in one gulp before saying, "It's more than a little bit better! It seems that you were trained in the military camp. You didn't make such great progress with the master before. "

Elder Brother Shi pushed away the cup handed over by the waiter, picked a pear from the fruit plate and began to chew: "That's right, the master taught me to learn, it's not interesting, the people over there are better than me, how can I do it if I don't work hard? I don’t want to be looked down upon by others!”

In the afternoon of autumn, the west wind rolled up some leaves, and swirled them on the stone path. A light red maple leaf swayed on the branch for a long time, and was finally caught by a naughty yellow warbler. The tender yellow bird Flying towards the blue sky with a light red leaf in its mouth, what it looks like is a sweet picture.

After losing the pear core, Elder Brother Shi still felt that it was not enough, so he asked someone to bring an eyebrow-level stick and danced a set of newly learned stick skills for Elder Eight. Worried about the delicate chrysanthemums I raised, the bunch of pearls that I just planted just now look very delicate!I'm afraid that the wind with the stick swept by the ten elder brothers will blow off the red and purple all over the ground.

Fortunately, chrysanthemums are able to stand against the frost, and can withstand a bit of stick wind. Except for the slight trembling of the leaves, not even a single flower has fallen.

Bafujin had already known the news that his uncle had come again, and asked what his uncle was doing. He was even more at ease. He sent someone to prepare a bath, arranged new clothes, and arranged the dishes for the evening. After thinking about it, he ordered a few delicacies. Maid, I'm afraid that the two brothers will have a few drinks with each other at night.

The tenth elder brother who was sweating profusely rested his hands, and his triumphant look showed some childish stupidity. The eighth elder brother stood up and said, "Your head is full of sweat, let's go, wash it off."

Elder Brother Ten obediently followed his elder brother into the wing room. Originally, Bafujin asked someone to put two bathtubs in the adjacent wing room, but Elder Ten was dissatisfied after seeing it. Forced to try his family's big bath with Eighth Prince.

Speaking of the big bathing pool at Brother Ba’s house, Brother Jiu took a lot of painstaking efforts. He specially found someone to go to Fanguo to ask for various blueprints, and asked the craftsmen to follow them.The materials used to build the pool were all selected high-quality materials, carved with exquisite patterns, one wall was demolished, and a few rows of green bamboos were planted, saying that it would give the eight princes a little fragrance when taking a bath.

The eighth brother smiled and said: "Okay, I don't feel embarrassed to use the bathtub after it's repaired. I thought it would be a bath in the wild. It just so happens that you are here, let's try it together."

Elder Brother Ten said: "Brother, you are more particular. I am in the military camp these days, eating and living with them. It would be nice to have a bucket to take a bath. There is not even a shower curtain. Brother, you are still afraid of this in your own home." ?”

The eighth elder brother laughed: "It's not that I didn't go out with Huang Ama and suffered hardships, but there is nothing I can do if I really don't get used to it."

The servants had already poured hot water into the bath, and helped the two elder brothers to change their clothes. They entered the water in small clothes, and a servant girl brought bath beans and fragrant soap. Elder Brother Shi waved his hand: "Mr. I don't want you to wait on me, let me soak the water first."

Eighth Brother leaned against the edge of the bath, closed his eyes and rested his mind, and let someone pinch his shoulders and press his feet.Looking sideways at his younger brother, his face was flushed like a boiled crab.

: "Come here, you won't enjoy it, let brother wash your hair!"

The tenth elder brother rowed over according to his words, and hit several small waves on the eighth elder brother, who was swung away by the eighth elder brother and grabbed him, held him in his arms and removed the braid.

The tenth elder brother buried himself in the eighth elder brother's arms and muttered, "Brother, be gentle."

The eighth elder brother moved a little bit with his hands, but his mouth was about to complain: "I don't know how your house takes care of you. Every time I come here, I wear this set of clothes. Could it be that you don't have a share of new clothes? It's like marrying a wife. Not married."

Elder Brother Ten grumbled and complained: "She is a Mongolian. It would be nice if she can take good care of herself, and you expect her to take care of me? My clothes are all controlled by haha ​​beads. What does she know? The mother who brought me here I can't even speak Chinese, so I'm too lazy to explain anything to her."

Brother Eight poured a handful of bath beans on Brother Ten's head, rubbed some foam out, pressed it down along the scalp, took a toothbrush dipped in some clear oil, and combed the knotted hair smoothly. Only then did Brother Ten bury his head in the pool to clean it up.

Elder Brother Ten came out of the water with his black hair draped over his shoulders, like a puppy falling into the water. Elder Brother Eight got up after beating his head a few times. Look, Fujin arranged new clothes for his younger brother. make a sound.

: "You wash again, I will get up first."

Elder Brother Shi hurriedly shook off the drops of water on his face: "What else do you want to wash? It can't be any more clean, brother, wait for me."

The sharp-eyed elder brother ten had already seen that he was being given new clothes, so he quickly stopped the eighth elder brother's hand: "Brother, don't be like this, I really don't lack anything. They say that people are not as good as they are, but the clothes are the same, old clothes It’s not abrasive at all.”

As he said that, he grabbed Eighth Brother's clothes and put them on himself. Eighth Brother had no choice but to let him go.

When the tenth elder brother passed on the clothes, the eighth elder brother couldn't help feeling that the young man grew up fast. The younger brother who was a little shorter than him at the beginning of the year was already about the same height as him, and he was stronger than himself in terms of body.

The eighth elder brother couldn't help but hammered his younger brother a few times, and found that the tenth elder brother looked at him with a face of confusion, and had no sense of being attacked at all, so he could only sigh silently in his heart, making up his mind to practice martial arts well and not be dragged by his younger brother down too far.

The little servant brought the snuff purse from the tray and tied it around the waist of the tenth elder brother. The eighth elder brother frowned, waved the little servant away, and then said, "Your mother and concubine's funeral is not over yet, why did you use it?" Bright yellow purse? Wouldn’t it be bad to show it to someone who cares? Why don’t you change it!”

Elder Brother Shi hurriedly tore off the purse and put it in his arms, smiling embarrassedly: "I was careless at the moment, thank you brother."

The eighth elder brother sighed in his heart, and loved this younger brother more and more. After the concubine Wen Xi left, the tenth elder brother became more and more inferior to the other elder brothers in front of Kangxi. He married a Mongolian Fujin who had no power and no love for others , Thinking of this, eighth elder brother feels uncomfortable. It is okay to act rough as a wife, but you must be cautious in your words and deeds as a prince Fujin, otherwise you will be a seedling who invites disaster.

Pulling my younger brother to sit down for dinner, eighth elder brother personally poured a cup of wine and handed it over, tenth elder brother drank it down with a smile, and smacked his mouth: "brother, this is a good wine, it's made with citron in the palace. The lotus flower is white, right?"

The eighth brother smiled: "You are getting better and better, but can you get your name out of one sip?"

Elder Brother Ten held up his glass and continued to ask for it: "That's right, it's hard to get such good wine, so naturally remember it!"

The servants at the back also laughed, and Shuang Cheng, who was serving him, was used to Elder Brother Shi, and said flatteringly, "My master got a few jars in total, but I haven't drank them all, and I just waited for you to come to open the seal!"

Elder Brother Shi picked up the chopsticks and said: "Of course the good things from my elder brother's house are biased towards me first."

After thinking about it, Brother Ten asked again: "Is this the new bar this year? Was it awarded by Huang Ama?"

The eighth elder brother pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes, there are some rewards from His Royal Highness, and the elder brother also sent a lot of them. Just think of me as a wine barrel!"

Brother Ten couldn't help laughing: "It's just that they have so many tricks! They like to play tricks on everything, and they never want people to guess their thoughts. I have also heard some gossip these days. Brother, you don't know, those people Everything should be made up, and he said it so vividly, as if he saw it with his own eyes."

The eighth elder brother shook the wine glass in his hand, and said lightly: "If you are a superior, if everything is written on your face, how can you achieve great things? Huang Ama and the others are all doing great things, how can you let those servants guess? Thoughts? You should learn a little bit, don't let people look down upon you!"

Elder Brother Shi shook his head, with a bit of resentment in his words: "I don't want to learn! Don't you exhaust me to death? I'm happy to be like this now. I can decide whether I like it or not. Anyway, the Lord is also a prince. Why bother?" Thinking too much? Mynah, you are always a life of worry, you should cherish yourself, which one of Huang Ama is reliable?"

The eighth elder brother didn't want to talk too much, but just persuaded the food. The ten elder brother was not allowed to drink more after the two pots of wine were hot. , you have been with me a lot, I'm afraid Huang Ama won't want to see you."

The tenth elder brother snorted a few times, but in the end he couldn't hold back the eighth elder brother, so he had to leave resentfully. Before leaving, he said: "Next time I sleep, I will come to drink!"

The eighth elder brother smiled and agreed, but he was thinking in his heart, next time he takes a rest, is he free?

Sure enough, the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, the hundred days of Long Ke Duo's mother's funeral were over, and the vegetarian meal that the Crown Prince ate for Empress Xiao Chengren was almost over, so someone went to sue the Imperial Court! !
