starling is not a bird

Babeile suddenly felt that the roots of his teeth were starting to hurt, and he could figure it out with his toes. Erniang was ill, and the chance of Hongshi, who was seriously ill, taking the initiative to provoke Sibeile was almost zero, so there was no need for Sibeile to suddenly lose his mind and go crazy The possibility of jumping into the master is high, so the sick Hongshi must have been angered by the fourth brother!

A son has already died, and the only seedling left is not cherished, and his temperament is so weird, it is really unpredictable for ordinary people!Holding the note, it's very hot. To be honest, Babeile really doesn't know how to persuade him. Besides, Babeile didn't feel that his words had any effect in front of Sibeile. His mother and brother didn't even recognize him. , Who will he talk to?In case of a slip of the tongue, if the person is not saved, it is a trivial matter for the two brothers to hurt their peace, but if Si Baylor is offended and Hongshi is beaten to death with a board, I will feel uncomfortable!

Stuffed the note into the sleeve, Babeile just eats wine and food, picks up some irrelevant topics to talk nonsense with Sibeile, Sibeile has been depressed at home for a long time, everyone in the family is afraid of him losing his temper, how can anyone Dare to talk to him casually?It was rare for someone to accompany him, and he relaxed his mind a little.

The two brothers were drinking, and a maid who was holding a jug accidentally spilled some wine, which happened to splash on the two of them. The maid hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, how could Babeile let people be punished for such a trivial matter?Waving his hands and saying it's okay, Si Bei Le's face was a little ugly, and Ba Bei Le also persuaded him to leave.

Then Fujin swayed out from inside, and personally took the clothes and asked the two to go to the side room to change. Babeile immediately understood that this was Fujin who came to beg in person, and sighed inwardly.

In the side room, the maidservants who came in all knelt down and begged Babeile in a low voice: "Master, please save the third elder brother, our master punished him to kneel for a whole day, Shui Mi never hit his teeth, and he is still sick Now, it won't work if anyone begs for mercy, if it drags on, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on anymore!"

Looking at the tearful maidservant, Babeile recalled how Hongshi was following behind his buttocks and calling him his eighth uncle with a smile. After he really adopted him, he also sincerely called himself Ama, and he was only Hongwang. My dear son, when he got Hongshi, he was really not bad to him. Although he is the fourth brother's child, he gets along better with me.

After changing his clothes, Babeile said softly: "Tell you Fujin, please do your best."

Going out, Si Bei Le had already picked up the cup and waited for him, and Ba Bei Le straightened his clothes and said with a smile: "It's boring for us to just drink, where is the eldest nephew? Is it all right? I'll call out to accompany my younger brother when I'm done." !"

Si Beile's mouth was pursed into a line, and he glanced at Ba Beile for a long time before saying, "Someone came to you to beg for mercy just now, right?"

Babeile didn't deny it either: "It's fine if you don't know, how can you ignore it if you know? Fourth brother, younger brother is not for others, Ge Ge in your room is indeed a bit stupid, but the child is innocent! I only went to one , I feel sorry for you, this brother is the only one left, why not take it easy? No matter how big a mistake is, you have to be punished slowly!"

Sibeile's eyes flashed brightly. Ever since the accident happened, he knew that there were many people laughing at him behind his back, but Babeile was the only one who said so to his face.

Babeile didn't wait for him to speak, and wanted to finish what was in his heart: "Brother knows that you are not convinced in your heart, and you always feel that it is you who is ashamed, but fourth brother, you only think like this, and it will exhaust you to death. This embarrassment is just a waste of face, who doesn't have a fool?"

Seeing that Si Bei Le didn't change his face, Ba Bei Le continued to persuade: "But you are holding your breath, and you are the one who is angry. Who else is there? You can’t hurt anyone if you hurt them? The people in the room are the people next to the pillow, and women are like clothes, but the son is his own flesh and blood. Don’t think we have many brothers. When it comes to eldest brother and the others, none of the heirs are particularly good, so it can be seen that this heir is God's will."

Other words, Sibei Le, when the spring breeze blew, but these words hit his heart, yes, the prince has only two sons, the eldest brother has only one seedling, the third brother is lucky, there are three elder brothers standing still Yes, there is another son-in-law.

When it comes to the fifth and seventh brothers, as for the eighth brother, there are no sons at all.Gradually, regret came up in my heart, Hong Yun was a good baby, and it was so easy to grow from a blood blister to be able to walk, why did he just leave like this?

Babeile saw that Sibeile's eyes were a little wet, and he knew something was going on, so he wiped his eyes with his sleeve: "Fourth brother doesn't know how my younger brother envies you, and my younger brother has been married for four or five years, but I only see flowers blooming but not bearing fruit. Every time I come here, I see The two nephews, I don’t know how envious they are. Hong Yun and Hongshi are considered younger brothers who grew up watching him grow up. As soon as he left, the younger brother’s heart seemed to be dug out. Who knows that Hongshi is still being punished. Brother, you Just let him go!"

Sibeile looked at his younger brother's red eyes, and couldn't help feeling all kinds of grievances and anger in his heart. He was just praying for God's blessing, so how could there be such a big commotion?Mother-in-law is looking for faults every day. Huang Ama sees that she is inferior to others in every way, and she is also stupid than others in giving birth to a son. Sibeile thinks about it for a while. It is not easy to punish Li Shi who is still sick, so she has to punish Hong It's time to vent your anger!It is only natural for me to punish my son, so you have nothing to say?

Now that I think about it again, others don't see my goodness, and I still have to follow their wishes. I have caused Li to be ill, and dragged down a son to death. I am afraid that the rest will be enlightened.

He waved his hands wearily: "Go and pick up the third elder brother and tell him, it's good to have a baby."

Babeile let out a sigh of relief, "Brother, let me see the child."

Sibeile gave Babeile a sideways look: "It's okay to have a look, don't let your mind wander!"

Babeile smiled: "It turns out that fourth brother knows that I am playing tricks!"

Hongshi was carried over, a little baby with a pale face and blue mouth, Babeile sighed inwardly, and stretched out his hand to take it: "Holding grandchildren but not children, fourth brother, you rest, I'll hug! "

Sibeile didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he just laughed a few times, seeing his son's pitiful appearance, his heart softened, how could he be so cruel?

Babeile coaxed the baby to drink some milk, fed two sips of soup, then cleverly asked someone to send the baby inside, and persuaded Sibeile to take a plate before leaving.

When going out, it was drizzling in the sky, the housekeeper of Sibeile's house brought a big silk umbrella over, and Babeile shook his hand: "Where is it so delicate? A few steps away, tighten the reins and we'll be there soon."

Several young elder brothers in the mansion were all poking their heads at the second door, and Babeile suddenly felt better, stepped up and walked over, each of them rubbed their heads: "Why, miss you brother?"

Elder Fourteen grabbed his head out: "Who misses you, we went out for a walk after dinner!"

Babeile pulled Brother Fourteen's braids and said, "Do you want to take a walk? Come on, follow me to your Fourth Brother's house. He has a big place, so you can walk as you like!"

Fourteenth elder brother rolled his eyes: "I'm not going, it's not warm yet, anyone who goes there will be heartbroken! He doesn't love his son, but I still love my nephew!"

Babeile smiled: "Hey, after playing at my house for so long, I still remember that your nephew is over there, you can clearly distinguish between close and distant!"

Fourteenth elder brother blushed: "Fourth brother is not good, my nephew is dear! I met him in the palace before, he is so good!"

What the fourteenth elder brother didn't have the nerve to say was that he was not very old at that time, and the imperial concubine also loved her grandson, and Hong Yun played well with him. Besides, at that time, the only elder brother in Wuyi Palace had a nephew. , I am so proud of my seniority!

Hong Yun is gone. He entered the palace by himself a few days ago and shed a lot of tears with his empress. You can't tell others about this, it's too embarrassing!

Babeile didn't make things difficult for him, and walked in with his younger brothers in his arms: "Did you enjoy eating tonight? Have you practiced your calligraphy? If you've finished your practice, I'll take you to watch Elder Brother Ten's martial arts performance tomorrow. If you don't practice well, you won't be allowed to eat late at night!" "

The younger brothers gathered around Babeile, the drizzle fell on the raised face, and the eyes became brighter. The martial arts field, what an interesting place to go!

In Babeile's small study room, Fujin is not allowed to enter on weekdays, only his personal servant can go in and clean, but the things cannot even be moved, and the walls are hung with watches of all sizes, with mineral distribution Maps, distribution maps of iron ore, detailed border maps, and a sand table in the northwest on the big table in the middle of the study.

There are no curiosities and antiques on Duobaoge. They are all Leilei's books, and all of them are military books on one side, from "General Description of Eight Battles", "Ten Treatises on Meiqin" to "Taigong Art of War", "Hundred Wars", "Mozi Brief Notes on Various Articles of the City Guard".

From "The Grand Duke's Art of War" to "The General Strategy of the Universe", "The Grand Duke's Golden Chamber" and "Military System", from "On the Hidden Fu" to "The Grand Duke's Conspiracy", "Celin", "Book of Quan".

From "Tang Taizong Li Weigong Questions and Answers" to "Holding the Strange Scripture", "Guiguzi", and "Six Secret Teachings", all dynasties and dynasties have included them. Since the fourteenth elder brother entered this study, he has been fascinated by these, every night Consciously waiting for Babele at the door, looking forward to the day's study, and carrying a book as a bedtime reading from time to time.

There are also several multi-treasure grids, on which are "Four Seasons Compilation Essentials", "Nongsang Clothing and Food Summary", "Jingshi Civil Affairs Record", "Nongyuan Handbook", as well as "Zheyu Guijian", "Suspect Prison Collection" "" "Washing Injustice Collection", there are many kinds, and there are many kinds.

Even Brother Nine and Brother Ten also admire Babeile, they are all ordinary elder brothers, why is he stronger than himself?Pingping is the older brother, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother combined are not as good as the starlings!

When asked about it, Babeile smiled and said: "It is said that half of the Analects of Confucius ruled the world, and the Analects of Confucius is just a summary of a sage. Can you really use the Analects to farm the land? There are hills and valleys in your chest, so you can't be bullied , to be able to predict things in advance and manage things first. Mingjun existed in ancient times, but the talents of the world are just knowing how to know people and be good at tasks. It is just that people in the world have different temperaments and different abilities. How can they all be geniuses? The Analects of Confucius Shangde, can Crowing and stealing are also useful. Gentlemen can be deceived by methods to measure people's hearts, character and talents, and the Analects of Confucius alone will not work!"

The fourteenth elder brother heard these words for the first time, he insisted on drawing a thousand lines of golden light on Babeile's back in his heart, even the most knowledgeable class in Wuyi Temple is not so thorough!As for the emperor?The fourteenth elder brother has long felt that his Huang Ama is stupid, and the word "Ming Jun" is just flattery from his subordinates.

So the increasingly stalwart ten elder brother still retains the old habit of facing Babeile, slightly arching his back, keeping his eyes level, and whenever Babeile speaks, he will listen sideways. When speaking, he insisted on holding back a bit of imperceptible low-pitched tenderness.

Brother Jiu didn't notice these differences. He is tall and tall, and he works in a hurry. How could he notice that his brother is a little shorter than himself?But the gap of three fingers, isn't it my elder brother who is short?My brother is always smarter than me, so listen to him in everything, that's right!

With Babeile's instructions, Elder Brother Shi carefully inspected his subordinates, and took a book from time to time to go back and ponder, and asked Babeile if he didn't understand, and took it to subdue his subordinates when he understood, persisted for a while, quite In order to be useful, the good reputation of Brother Ten gradually spread in Beijing.

: "Brother, why did Huang Ama refuse to fight Russia?" Fourteenth brother asked.

Babeile smiled, stopped pointing the stick in his hand at the sand table, and looked at Elder Brother Ten: "Can you tell my brother?"

Elder Brother Shi smiled. He would have been surprised by this question a few years ago, but now, he has learned to guess the emperor's intentions.It is nothing more than the layout of the overall situation and the consolidation of the country.No war will start so easily.It is easy to start a war, and the ability to decide when and how the war will end is a truly capable leader.

The ten brothers, who have always been awkward with words, rarely have the opportunity to talk freely. From the silver in the treasury, to the transportation of soldiers, to the situation in Russia, the tactics they are good at, and to analyze that if a war starts, the Han army flags in the army will be full. The ratio of the distribution of the military flags is reasonable, and the road for food and grass is not easy to be robbed halfway.

Brother Fourteen has the martial arts blood of the Eight Banners in his bones, he can only talk about wars on paper, and he is a little envious in his heart. At this moment, he understands what inspired his yearning in the past.

The younger brothers were in high spirits, chatting and chatting, and then the bell rang. Sometimes Babeile felt sorry for them and urged them to go to sleep, but seeing the shining eyes of the brothers, sometimes Babeile still softened his heart.

After staying with his younger brothers for a few months, Babeile looked forward to Kangxi's return as soon as possible, but Kangxi was still busy inspecting the Eight Banners at the Hangzhou Martial Arts Field, where are the green flag officers and soldiers!

In April, it was the season of warm spring and flowers blooming. Kangxi issued a decree to pardon criminals under capital crime in Zhejiang and Fujian provinces, and reduce their punishment. On the 22nd, the holy driver arrived in Jiangning. On the 23rd, he sent Shangshu Xu Chao to sacrifice to the Ming Taizu Mausoleum. On the 26th, he inspected the Jiangning garrison officers and soldiers, and pardoned criminals under capital crimes in Anhui and Jiangsu, and reduced their punishment. On the 27th, Emperor Kangxi went to the Ming Taizu Mausoleum to salute, then left Jiangning, and inspected the navy in Jingkou on the 28th.

The news spread to the capital one by one, Zhijun Wang sneered, Huang Ama was so excited, and took the crown prince around to show favors, fearing that the crown prince would return from the south of the Yangtze River, and there would be a few more certificates around his waist.

Fortunately, there are also people here who came to surrender. The king of Zhijun sent a boy to find the matchmaker: "Go, I want to show off to my younger brothers!"

Who was meeting him? It was Zhang Mingde, who was so popular when Jiulong seized the heirloom, a charlatan who won the favor of many princes and even dared to assassinate the prince.
