starling is not a bird

Emperor Kangxi’s journey back home was not peaceful. Although the university scholars had distributed rice in Tongzhou at a low price to the people affected by the disaster, the price of rice in the flooded areas in the Gyeonggi area was reduced, which was of great benefit to the people.There was not enough rice in the warehouses of the prefectures and counties along the river, and people were sent to intercept the water transport from Shandong to the northwest, and the priority was to sell it to the common people.

However, on the way back, there were rumors that there were unscrupulous local officials who sold rice to the common people at an increased price, and even took the opportunity to sell refugees and take the common people into slavery, so that the common people were not benefited and complained.

As a last resort, Emperor Kangxi issued strict orders and sent the third elder brother Yinzhi to lead the governor Guo Shilong to send people to inspect from time to time. If there is any violation of the order, it will be dealt with strictly.

Speaking of the governor Guo Shilong, he is indeed a capable official. He was born in the Han army with a red banner. , The military exploits are brilliant, the king of England loves him for his talents, so he raised his flag status, awarded him the assistant leader inlaid with the red flag, let him divide the subordinates, and tired the officials to the general army of Daozhou, Huguang.When Hong Chen passed away in the fourth year of Kangxi, Guo Shilong took over his father's leadership, but he was promoted from a member of the Ministry of Rites to Yushi in just over ten years.

In the 29th year of Kangxi, Guo Shilong succeeded Yu Chenglong as the governor of Zhili. He dismissed Zhang Zhongju, the governor of Fujian, and Zhang Yongmao, the chief envoy, in the name of eroding the treasury when he first took office. Goodness is not easy to follow, so you should be diligent and cautious in doing things."

Zhili has experienced constant floods and droughts year after year. It built embankments, raised reserves, and allowed the people to transfer the rice grains from the heavens.During this tour, the emperor saw that he managed the Zhili area well, and praised him a lot. Therefore, Guo Shilong became more conscientious, and he did not have enough energy to catch up, and there were unfinished business.

Yinzhi knew that Guo Shilong was originally from the Ministry of Rites and had an old relationship with the elder brother, but Huang Ama had assigned himself to the Xianghong Banner, and Guo Shilong was a capable official.On weekdays, Emperor Ama was very wary of elder brother's dealings with ministers. Now it is rare to have a chance to make friends. Yinzhi naturally puts on a gentle and elegant appearance. He is very polite and virtuous. It's here to help.

Guo Shilong met the arrogance of the irascible crown prince when he was in Beijing. When he first got along with the third elder brother, it was a lawsuit on his head. .But I didn't expect that the third elder brother has a kind and gentle style like a father, which makes people have to get close.

The crown prince was raised by Kangxi himself since he was a child, what is there that the emperor doesn't know about the art of governing the mind?He was secretly ashamed of his younger brother's deeds, but he was unwilling to make a confession in front of Huang Ama. He just grabbed his fourth younger brother Yinzhen by his side and acted like a good brother and friend.

Ever since the crown prince received the good news from the palace that Li Jiashi had given birth prematurely, he sealed the letter to Ling Pu and told him to be careful.

Originally, something happened to the Li Jia family, and he was most suspicious of the elder brother who was staying in the capital, but Ling Pu wrote back saying that the elder brother had not changed anything, which made the prince puzzled, who was responsible for it? ?

The crown prince was not most worried about this daughter. He thought in his heart that since someone could tamper with his side Fujin in the palace without anyone noticing, wouldn't it be common for him to murder himself?

As the crown prince, Huang Amali himself sacrificed to the ancestors of heaven and earth, but none of the concubines in the harem and his brothers can worry about it. And this heart is even more resentful.

Kangxi left his son to deal with the affairs of Zhili, and he took the crown prince and Yinzhen to check the embankment of the canal. Chang Chang, the minister of the storehouse, wrote a memorial saying that from Tongzhou to Xigu, he had destroyed Lijiakou and others. Five places should be built, Baiju Factory and other five places, the embankment is dangerous, so we had to allocate money and food from the Ministry of Households for emergency.

After the crown prince returned to Beijing, he never lost his temper when he heard the bad news about his daughter. He just fasted and bathed on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. secretly strange.

In April, Li Jiashi became pregnant again.

Yinzhi's attendant, Chen Menglei, finally got some clues about the matter at hand. Yinzhi immediately reported the good news to Kangxi. After hearing this, Kangxi went to the study to read it in person. The branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the old cranes have new feathers."The next day, an order was issued to assign Yinzhi and Chen Menglei to be responsible for setting up the Mengyang Zhaiguan, and asked them to recruit more people to compile.

The crown prince held the list in his hand, pondered for a while before asking: "Is this the person that Huang Ama plans to ask the third son to call into the capital to manage the book?"

The guard hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "Returning to the crown prince, it was copied and sent by our people in a building in the north of the city. The list is here."

The crown prince looked at the names in his hand: Xu Qianxue, Wang Hongxu, Gao Shiqi, Han Su, Tang Sunhua, Xu Bingyi!None of them belonged to me, and it took a lot of effort to drive these people out of the court. Unexpectedly, as soon as the third elder brother compiled a book, Huang Ama summoned them back.

Where is this for book repair?It is clear that Huang Ama is dissatisfied with Suo'etu's monopoly, and wants to re-establish the mountain and prepare manpower.

The crown prince will never forget that both Suo'etu and Mingzhu were powerful figures in the court back then, which one didn't say "If you want to be an official, ask Suo San; if you want to talk about love, ask Lao Ming"?Later, Huang Ama demoted Mingzhu for herself, and Yinfeng was only half relieved.

At that time, when Mingzhu fell, there was still a sentence that everyone didn't say clearly, that is, "If the sky wants peace, kill Lao Suo; if the sky wants peace, kill Lao Ming." Since Mingzhu left, Suo'etu has become increasingly arrogant and domineering.

Every time something bad happens, and I often get hurt, I don't know if Huang Ama is really determined to touch Suo'etu. Most of the people on this list are big brother's confidantes. If they return to the court, It's hard for me.

The crown prince looked down at the list, scratched under Xu Qianxue's name with his fingernails, returned it to the attendant, closed his eyes and said: "Mr. Xu is old, isn't it good to raise Jiangnan? , I really can't bear the old minister running around!"

In April, Xu Qianxue in Kunshan, south of the Yangtze River, died of illness. He left behind his compilation "Yi Tong Zhi", and Emperor Kangxi ordered a inspector to collect it.The crown prince, who had always been at odds with Xu Qianxue, actually wrote a letter asking Emperor Kangxi to give him favor and support. Kangxi secretly rejoiced that his son did not forget the old evil and was dedicated to serving the public. Only the elder brother secretly bit his teeth!

The fourth elder brother is more depressed than the crown prince. It has been three years since he was married. There is no news about Fujin Wulanara or Gege around him. He finally came back this time. He just returned to the palace on March [-]th. , Gege Song gave birth to a daughter.

Yinzhen is very proud of being a father for the first time, and the greatest pleasure every day is to go home and tease the little daughter carved in jade. Although the crown prince is bereaved, the people in the palace don't give this little baby a big deal , Yinzhen could only bow his head in sullen joy, not daring to show the slightest joy outside.

Even the concubine de concubine was delighted by this first granddaughter, and often ordered people to invite Sifu Jin to the palace to talk. This coke spoiled a few little elder brothers. Normally, her younger sister had nothing to play with, so she followed her. The nurturing mother is raised by the concubine's side, how can the little elder brother have a chance to play and tease?

The elder brother's daughters are all from the Yiergenjueluo clan of Fujin. They are very precious and should not be touched by others. Now that they are grown up, they refuse to play with others.The prince's children died before they could live long, and the older brothers didn't dare to play, and the third elder brother didn't move at all.

Now the fourth elder brother has raised a daughter, who loves to laugh and hug her, a few little elder brothers will run over to the sky, pretending to greet the concubine Defei, but in fact they are all playing with children.

Especially Yinhu, who had no relationship with children in her previous life, and her knees were desolate. Seeing this cute little guy, she wished she could hug her and raise her.When the big brother heard about this, he half-truthfully said that Yinhu was biased, and Yinhu laughed and said that your Gege would choose a small vest to wear by himself, so how dare you offend?It made the elder brother rub him for a meal before giving up.

This day, Si Fujin had just put on her clothes, ordered her nurse to hug Xiao Gege, and was about to go to pay her respects to Defei, but Si elder brother suddenly said: "Don't be so busy, wait for me to go there with you, there are too many things to do when I come back. I haven't greeted my empress properly yet." Sifujin wondered in his heart: My husband has always been estranged from his concubine De, and he would only go to the morning and evening appointments on weekdays when he had to, so why is it raining red today?

Immediately waiting for the fourth brother and his wife to go to see the concubine De concubine, the concubine de concubine saw nothing but her son and daughter-in-law, she was very happy to see her little granddaughter alone, she ordered the nurse to hug her and coax her personally.A palace official had tipped off the news to the outside, and within a short while, Yinhu rushed over with a few younger brothers, including Yinyu, Yinxuan, Yinxiang, and Yinti along the way.For a while, the Yonghe Palace was full of excitement.

As soon as Yinzhen came in, she clamored to be hugged by Concubine De, and refused to share the favor with her niece, so Concubine De had to return the little Gege in her hand to Sifujin, where Yinzhen was angry with her brother Xiaojiu and Xiaojiu. Ten ignored him when he talked, and didn't even accompany him when he was sick, but he wanted to sit among them. The three little elder brothers fought for a long time.

Yinxiang was left alone, with his mouth puckered and about to cry, Si Fujin was so troubled that he couldn't stand it, so he peeked at Si elder brother, the old god was there, and he was completely calm and calm.

From the moment Yinhu came in, he had been envious of the little baby in the hands of Empress Defei, holding his thumb in his mouth so docilely, rolling his black eyes to look at people, and kicking Sifujin with his calf from time to time.But his fourth brother was sitting upright, and he didn't dare to make a mistake. Since the last time the two broke up, they haven't spoken to each other yet.I don't know if the fourth brother's anger has subsided, but he doesn't want to mess with him for nothing.

But the fourth elder brother took the baby from Fujin and handed it to Yinhu: "It's so ugly to see my daughter drooling!" Yinhu blushed, but she couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and started to tease her while holding the doll .

Yinxiang saw that even the most talkative starling started to hug other dolls, tears began to roll in his eyes, Sifujin saw the misery of his little uncle as soon as he turned his head, and smiled secretly.Busily took the fruit on the table and started coaxing him to play.The fourth elder brother stood next to Yinhu, trying his best to talk to him without any connection, and didn't even look at his younger brother wantonly in his mother's arms.

Yinhu shook the doll in his arms, raised her up and down to make her laugh, struggling in his heart, should he thank the fourth brother for opening the door of convenience?Afraid that he would speak abruptly here, he was worried for a long time, but in the end, Xiao Jiu over there made a solution: "Fourth brother, thank you for your help last time, I haven't had time to thank you yet, fourth brother, follow Huang Ama It's time to go on tour! You just wait, when your niece is full moon, my brother will definitely back up a big gift, and I'm sure you'll be satisfied!"

Yinzhen looked at Xiaojiu with a half-smile but not a smile: "Sure enough, you are rich and powerful. Don't worry about your niece's full moon. You don't plan to make a big deal. But there is a disaster in Tongzhou. It is reasonable for you to donate some money to help the porridge."

The concubine de concubine above heard it a long time ago: "Lao Jiu, what your brother said is true, the Hebei area was hit by a disaster, and the palace is not suitable for holding weddings. I'm afraid that your Huang Ama will say that it is wasteful, so don't make him unhappy."

Xiao Jiuxing made a good show and was beaten again, so he had no choice but to respond indiscriminately, and concentrated on fighting for the position with his younger brother.Empress Defei turned her head and said to the fourth elder brother: "Si elder brother, His Royal Highness just lost Ge Ge, so it will be difficult for you."

The fourth elder brother has a new daughter, and he has to hide the joy in his stomach, not without ideas.The House of Internal Affairs is now under the care of the Crown Prince's nanny, so Li Jia can get whatever she wants, and when it comes to Ge Ge, everything is done according to the usual routine. The imperial doctor happened to meet with Ge Ge who died early, so he was transferred to recuperate Li Jiashi's body. Song Shi was the first child, and she was born after howling all day on the day of delivery, so she suffered a lot.

Although Yinhu over there is reluctant to let go, but the thirteenth brother is already happy, playing with a nine-linked ring, and the concubine De is busy coaxing the story in the fourteenth lecture.Sifujin looked at him eagerly, so Yinhu had no choice but to return the doll in his arms. The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "It's rare that you fall in love with my daughter. Since you like her so much, it's okay to come and see her more. Your sister-in-law will definitely welcome her." of."

Yinhu's eyes lit up: "Really?" The fourth elder brother smiled: "There's no need to lie, it's a great thing for an uncle to love his niece, I'm afraid that after you get married in the future, if you have your own children, you will destroy our family. Put it aside, it will be difficult to get close to you when the time comes."

Yinhu saw that his fourth brother rarely showed his kindness, so he hurriedly climbed up the pole: "Where did the fourth brother think of these petty words? It was too late for us to hurt her, so how dare we forget it? It can be seen that my brother intends to play tricks on us. We will meet again tomorrow when the full moon is full." No matter what, let a few of us go over and disturb the glass of water and wine."

The fourth elder brother wanted to reconcile with his younger brother on purpose this time, so he naturally spoke kindly and had a gentle face. He was even more happy to see his younger brother's face without any suspicion. and.Yinhu and Zhanger were confused, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in his fourth brother's gourd.Before going out, he teased himself inexplicably, and after a long trip, he changed himself again. Although he likes children, it's better not to act rashly.

At the end of March, there were several heavy rains, and the elder brother's eldest daughter died before the weather cleared up to celebrate her full moon.Poor Song Gege, shed tears all night under the quilt holding the child.Instead, it corresponds to the phrase: the tears in front of the pillow share the rain in front of the window, and dripping to the bright through the window.

When I woke up the next day, I had to put cold water on my eyes and go to set rules in front of Sifujin. Although Sifujin was a generous person, Song also knew that she was humble around her, so she couldn't invite any taboos. No mistake.
