starling is not a bird

In Duke Aling'a's mansion, it can be said that the traffic is like flowing water and horses are like dragons these few days. The people coming and going are all high-ranking people. The emperor is going to elect a prince. This is a big event. Who doesn't yearn for a hot stove?The Duke's family has a brother-in-law of the emperor, a son-in-law of the prince, and a niece and daughter who are also married to the royal family. They go to the palace to play and play from time to time. They must be well-informed.

: "It's all here at the prince's mansion, and I'm here to ask if it's the third elder brother, a bunch of idiots!" A Ling'a spoke angrily while rubbing her gray braid.

There was a smile on Fujin's face: "My lord, sit down and take a rest, what are you arguing with those who are blind? They are afraid they are still dreaming about the Spring and Autumn Dream! Could it be that they can't see the situation clearly at this moment?"

A Ling'a spread herself out on the chair, unbuttoned her neckline, and the girl next to her put on her fan and waved her fan, A Ling'a snatched the fan and shook it desperately: "Why is it that the prince hasn't come over these few days? You don't want to go and see, grandson's birthday is coming, how are the gifts prepared?"

Fujin did it properly: "Where is the prince to worry about, I have already prepared it, Baizi quilt, Qianjia clothes, golden lock and jade pendant, small sword, refined dried noodles and red buns, would you like to have a look at it?"

Ah Ling groaned a few times: "Jianbo, Jianbo! Even if your daughter doesn't care about it, does your son-in-law like it?"

Fujin was not happy: "That year, the grandson of the emperor was one year old, and he was only two points thicker than this. The prince still took care of himself on the surface, so why make others unhappy?"

A Ling'ah jumped up: "Who is not happy? Who is not happy? Who will talk? They are already locked in, and they have to send their children out to be an eyesore. What a nuisance! Why do you want to overwhelm our grandson? Hasn't he had enough of being angry? It's all like this now, why should he still be angry!"

Fujin hurriedly went over to press him: "My lord, what are you doing with such a temper? Just hold it in for a few days, isn't it a big deal that hasn't been settled yet?"

A Ling'a exhaled from his nose: "How many days are left? Look for yourself, how many people come to our side today, how many people go to Ulanara's side, people in the world have eyes I'm telling you, Master Ming will go to the memorial, and it's not too many to sign hundreds of names later!"

Fujin sighed: "My lord, at the beginning, you thought that the family was not of a high family background, and you felt that your daughter was at a disadvantage in marrying her. Looking at it now, why did you lose it? Not to mention anything else, compared to the concubine De, the concubine Jia's mother-in-law, she is really good! "

A Ling'a's face was red and her heart was not beating: "Which one dislikes him? It's not that you women are nagging, your hair is long and your knowledge is short, you pick this tune and that, tell you, what is good fortune first? Those who are capable will enjoy it for a lifetime." Your blessing is your blessing! Mother-in-law is also a matter? But if the master and son have the heart to praise Concubine De, Prince Yong dares to shamelessly pick Tong Jiashi like that?"

Fujin rolled his eyes in his heart, it was obviously the prince who came back alone and couldn't eat all night, and sighed, he would rather his daughter choose to be the prince's side concubine, and force her to be a maidservant's son as the main house, so to speak, he is the prince, My mother's family has long been in ruins, and my mother-in-law is only the one in the palace. She has been married for eight lifetimes, and she still wants to marry a pro-daughter, and make a strong marriage. With such a son-in-law, the distribution is indispensable , what can I get?

It was later that the son-in-law loved his daughter and was filial in every possible way, so his lord's face was so open. It wasn't until the son-in-law supported his daughter to give birth to a son-in-law and kept his younger brother that the lord praised him as a man, although he was a little weaker .

In the future, the position of the son-in-law is getting higher and higher, and the attitude of the prince is not so high. Later, the son-in-law became a prince, followed by a bunch of important officials. His daughter was still so comfortable at home, which made Fujin secretly admire him. He wondered if he walked smoothly and steadily all the way, so what about the emperor's son?

Emperor Kangxi has more than 20 sons, and the eldest son is in the circle, and the aunt's son is also in the circle. Among a bunch of concubine sons, this one is not high-born, but the one who is not in the first order has a faint leadership demeanor. Just look at how he treats his wife and family , it can be seen that he is a man with ideas and ambitions, and his daughter really made money by following him.

The former son and daughter brought their grandchildren back for the festival, and gave their sisters Qixi Festival gifts. Everything they brought out was good, and their conversations were full of energy. It can be seen that they are used to being the masters of the house, and their son-in-law loves them very much. That face is my prince. Yanyan's words and smiles are not deceiving.

Fujin herself is also the hostess who is the master of the house. She also fought against concubines back then, and was put on the fire in a side room. In comparison, looking at her own woman, she was in a honeypot.

A good father-in-law, a good mother-in-law, a good son, and a good daughter are not as good as a husband who treats himself well, real blessings, and real good days.

"My lord, Fahai is in the emperor's heart, and he only wants to rescue the second elder brother! He sees that Orondai thinks highly of our son-in-law, and he is afraid that he is only trying to make things difficult for Orondai, and he may also make trouble for him!" Fujin suddenly remembered something.

"What is Fa Hai? A maidservant has a son, and he is favored by writing articles. This kind of person reaches a high position by luck, can he continue to be lucky?" Alinga didn't think so.

: "Besides, he is not the only one in Tong Jia's family. Long Kedo has already fallen, and Yue Xing'a is afraid that he will be able to defeat Fa Hai! What are you worried about? The people in Tong Jia's family are stronger than you. Afraid that those who have no dignity will come to power." A Ling'a has been in and out of the clan's mansion since she was a child, and the family knows all about the secrets, so she doesn't take the beloved Tong Jia's family seriously.

Fujin sighed: "This nomination, the nomination, does the prince really plan to come forward by himself? Do you want to avoid suspicion?"

: "The ancients said: If you don't avoid relatives, this king is also sharing the emperor's worries, and doesn't care about your own name. Why not? Besides, this king is not alone. However, if they become backward, they still let the prince of the Jueluo family be ahead!"

Ah Ling and Achai are right, the most important papers are indeed not written by him, a prince with a foreign surname, who has no merit and no job, and took the papers written by a few lost ministers, what is it?

Even the articles jointly written by professors and students from several major academies in the south of the Yangtze River thousands of miles away, every word is pearls and full of beauty, is much better than Ah Ling'ah.

Kangxi had expected that there would be clan members with ulterior motives, and it was acceptable to recommend the prince he was optimistic about, the prince who was easy to fool, and the prince who was close to each other.

When Kangxi put down the bait, he was mentally prepared. There would be unfavorable remarks and unfavorable thoughts. What he had to do was to suppress some, promote some, show his attitude with clear rewards and punishments, and then further establish himself as a king authority.

In the process of this kind of screening, the imperial power was consolidated, the opposition within the empire was cleaned up, and those hidden worries that were not discovered at ordinary times, so that the servants could see their status clearly.

Then find loyal courtiers, praise them, promote them, reflect the king's insight, the king's kindness is mighty, everywhere, how wonderful.

However, what Kangxi did not expect was that nine out of ten people who are unsatisfactory in the world, it is easy to catch snails with three fingers, throwing a stone and expecting that he can control a pool of spring water is obviously overestimating his own ability and underestimating the vicissitudes of the situation Measurement.

The most important book was written by Prince Yu. After getting along for most of his life, Prince Yu has always been obedient to Kangxi and obedient to his orders. If such an elder brother is placed in the court, it is Kangxi's success and the emperor's victory.

Prince Yu didn't bother the emperor with state affairs and family affairs, and he also helped the emperor solve problems. As long as the emperor's attitude was shown, Prince Yu's attitude would be followed. He was the emperor's most staunch supporter.

However, in the brochure that was placed in front of Kangxi today, Prince Yu expressed his attitude in the most flat tone and the shortest sentence, and he supported Prince Ding.

Prince Yu seldom has his own thoughts, and Kangxi never needs to care about his thoughts, Prince Yu will always understand, he will always give in, just like what happened to the elder brother back then, just like when he faced the big brother. Prince's business.

Kangxi always thought that he would be kind to his elder brother and take good care of him. This time, for the benefit of his elder brother, he had already reminded him in advance to support the prince and the elder brother who was born in the first place. He originally thought that everything would be done according to his ideas go down.

The courtiers and clansmen were ready to move, Prince Yu came out to provoke the leader, and then the loyal and upright people stood up, two or three parties fought to the death, and attacked each other in various ways, sending the opponent's handle to the emperor.

You can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, get a good hand, and strive for more room for operation in the later stage, not only the matter of establishing a reserve, but also various policies, and various reforms can be carried out according to your own wishes Achieved.

The self who jumped out to show his attitude, stood high, implemented arbitration, set things right, completed the purge of the court, and completed the consolidation of the great cause.

But why did Prince Yu change?

Kangxi had no chance to keep Prince Yu's note, because Prince Yu stood up to play the book when he was in court, and then a bunch of ministers seconded it.

The throne was high above, and the bead curtain on the crown dazzled Kangxi's eyes. He couldn't see Prince Yu's expression clearly. It must be because he lowered his head, not because his eyes were getting dark.

After Prince Yu finished reading his memorial dryly, he bent down silently and fell silent. Then the courtiers who came out one by one, all of them spoke beautifully and made long speeches, which sounded very reasonable. Even Kangxi himself felt that after listening to so many reasons If I still refuse to choose the prince as the crown prince, I must be a faint king, King Zhou, partial listener, partial believer, and unwilling to accept advice.

Not wanting to listen to the nonsense of those courtiers at all, he turned his head to look for Prince Ding's face. As a prince, the emperor's own son, and the person in charge of the six departments, Prince Ding stood very close to the emperor.

But his face was very calm, without any superfluous expression, neither complacent nor panic, just standing there with nothing to do with him, without any reaction at all.

Kangxi's chest was tight, and his heart was congested. When did he start to lose sight of his son's expression?

Even if it is the prince who has been carefully raised and has a noble status, when facing his own favor and the king's wrath, he can clearly see his thoughts, whether there is any small move, whether there is any deviation, whether it is the truth or not.

The emperor's mind is kept secret, and the prince who earnestly taught him has practiced for 30 years, and he still can't hide his emotions and anger, but the Prince Ding in front of him has become unfathomable to this day?

Looking at the angry Thirteen Baylor, the unwilling Cheng Baylor, and the envious and unconvinced Prince Yong, Kangxi regained a little confidence.

But he became more and more uncertain, Prince Yu's attitude, was it Prince Ding's wooing, or did he really want to surrender to the locator?

And those generals, those Hanchens, those clan relatives, and even those students who were studying hard thousands of miles away, what did they rely on to make their choices?

Since when has there been so many things I don't know?Kangxi gradually felt a little cold all over his body, and the sweat was still coming out.
