starling is not a bird

The army guard led a bunch of disheveled mobs to end the riot. The eighth prince and Li Guangdi rode the horses together towards the Secretary of the General Administration. There were no people on both sides of the official road, only the lonely sound of hooves.The guards at the back also refused to make a sound, and it was rare to follow the master out, but there was such a commotion on the way, and they lost their status even if they went back to eat and hang up!Seven or eight guards couldn't protect the master, and in the end it was the little master who saved him, which was quite boring.

The eighth elder brother looked at Li Guangdi next to him, his face was only respectful, and he refused to reveal the thoughts in his heart. In the past few years of training, he has become more and more stable. It is no wonder that Huang Ama used him so much in the end.It's just that this person is too shrewd, he has always stood on the dry bank and watched the Yellow River, so it is probably difficult to accept him as a confidant, anyway, he doesn't dare to embarrass himself anyway, let him go.

As he was walking, the eighth elder brother saw a Jishitang in front of him, and hurriedly beckoned to pull Kui Xu to his side, and said to him in a low voice: "You go to the medical center over there to get a parcel first, and then go to the Secretary of the General Administration later." Serve me!" Kui Xu smiled when he heard the words: "Thank you for your kindness, why bother with such a small injury? It's okay!"

The eighth elder brother looked down at Kui Xu's knee, there was no trace of blood oozing, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I think I've underestimated you, but I don't think there is any good tea for the Secretary of the General Administration." He said from his purse He took out a small silver ingot and handed it to him, "Go and buy some chrysanthemums, I want to drink some."

Kui Xu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't take the money, and pulled the horse's head away: "This is a small host, and the servant can afford to be filial, so I will come right away." The eighth elder brother smiled faintly, and said loudly on purpose: "You can carefully Pick the good ones slowly, I won't drink the broken ones!" Kui Xu went straight without looking back.

In the lobby of the Secretary of General Administration, Li Guangdi originally wanted to let the eighth elder brother and his party go to the lobby for a hearing, but the eighth elder brother waved his hand: "This is the duty of the adults. The master is just an errand elder brother. Where can I speak? Li Your Excellency will deal with it by yourself, and the men are resting here, just want to see what's going on, please be yourself first, Your Excellency."

Without waiting for Li Guangdi to reply, he raised his head and led people into the wing room. There was a sound of people bringing tea and water, twisting towels and putting tea and fruits. Seeing this, Li Guangdi didn't say anything, and called a few handsome and smart people on the second door. The boy went to serve.The eighth elder brother leaned on the kang table, propped his chin and closed his eyes to rest his mind, and several guards also sat down below, and the servants stood behind after spreading the tea and fruits, pinching their backs and beating their waists.

Li Guangdi at the front sat in the hall, before the big board got down, the people below had already started to speak obscenities, Li Guangdi ignored them, and just threw down the red-headed sticks one by one, hitting fifty and fifty until the lying down No more energy to scold, Shi Shiran began to ask questions.It's just that the soldiers of the Eight Banners are poor and helpless, and they don't want to be down-to-earth.

It is not impossible to deal with them, simply scrape them clean, and let them work hard.It's just that the Eight Banners are the lifeblood of the imperial court, and no matter how determined the Manchu emperor was to reform, he would not dare to move, so what can he do as a Hanchen?There is no other way but to send more people to patrol the streets every day.

Thinking of the eighth elder brother waiting in the back hall, Li Guangdi felt dizzy. Today, the eighth elder brother suffered a loss. He must go back to the emperor to answer. body.Li Guangde was thinking about how to put the words in Yuan Fan's words, so as to dismiss the elder brother without causing trouble for himself, he insisted on being in a daze in the courtroom for a long time before asking the prisoners to give the official record to the prisoners for fingerprinting.

Carrying a large pile of statements from the prisoners, Li Guangdi picked out a few statements with the most peaceful tone in his hand and walked towards the back hall. He secretly hated that the green bricks on the ground were too solid, and there was no sound at all, so he raised his voice and greeted Ann, and it took a long time before he heard Eighth Brother said slowly: "Master Li is coming in, get up!"

The eighth elder brother heard Li Guangdi's footsteps a long time ago. He hadn't been crowned king yet. If Li Guangdi made a big gift, he should go to help him. , deliberately pretending not to see it, and show him some color, no matter how bad a man is, he is still a son of a dragon, and you are a Hanchen who only takes advantage of the cheap and does not suffer, how can you succeed!

Listening to Li Guangdi's reply, Ba Ge naturally understood what he meant. It was not up to him to take care of the affairs of the Eight Banners, but he just happened to meet him. It's a good idea to push the trouble to the infantry commander, but the eighth elder brother will bear the reputation of deceiving the emperor for him.

Li Guangdi vaguely confessed his own plans, but didn't he want to deal with a teenage brother every minute?But the eighth elder brother was sitting in a state of mind, just holding the teacup and slowly sipping, neither looking at himself nor speaking, Li Guangdi gradually felt that the top of his head began to sweat.

I thought that if Li Guangdi was smart, I would give him a chance to stand out. Even if this person can't be used by himself, he would sell him well and meet him in the future, but Li Guangdi's knife-cut tofu has two sides. He didn't agree, put down the cup, Eighth Prince looked at Li Guang with a half-smile and said, "Master Li, you have always had a reputation, see you today, tsk tsk!"

Li Guangdi lowered his head. Beads of sweat were already streaming down his forehead and cheeks. He could hear the implication of Eighth Prince's words very clearly, but the words he said were like splashed water. dare not.

The eighth elder brother was playing with the small quilt cover, waiting for Li Guangdi to surrender. There was a sound of footsteps outside. Looking up, Kui Xu rushed in with a medicine bag from Jishitang, and was about to salute. , the eighth elder brother stood up and supported his arm, and said with a smile: "What are these vain people to care about, where is my hair?"

Kui Xu didn't wait for those little boys to do it, he poured the residual tea in Ba Prince's cup and opened the paper bag. It turned out that besides the chrysanthemum, he also bought Chinese wolfberry and Polygonatum odoratum, put them in according to the amount, and rinsed them with boiling water. The fragrance of chrysanthemums floated out, and it looked very gratifying in red, white and white.The eighth elder brother was not in a hurry to drink it with the cup, but just smelled the aroma, and then leaned over Kui Xu to smell it, and nodded when he smelled the medicinal oil, and asked him to sit down.

No matter how dull Li Guangdi was, he knew that he had offended the nobleman in front of him. After thinking about it, could it be that the little elder brother felt that it was his fault that he suffered a disadvantage on the street?Li Guangdi felt wronged, really wronged!

Brother Ba put down the chrysanthemum tea in his hand, took a closer look at Li Guangdi, saw that he was sweating profusely, and thought to himself, come on, now is a good time, and said slowly: "Today's matter is the internal affairs of the Eight Banners, so it has nothing to do with Li Guangdi." Sir, don't worry about Master Li, please sit down."

Where Li Guangdi dared to sit, he was about to resign with his hand arched. The eighth elder brother winked at Kui, and he quickly came up to pull Mr. Li to sit: "Mr. Li, why are you polite? The eighth master is the most easy-going, don't be polite!"

Li Guangdi pleaded guilty, sat down slightly, and eighth elder brother said: "Come in, I follow my brothers to handle affairs, and I know a lot about the world, those shabby rogues are just too poor to do anything, man Naturally, I don’t care about them! It’s just that although Master Li doesn’t care about the affairs of the flag, the security of the capital is also closely related to the Secretary of the General Administration. Could it be that Master Li is so clumsy and refuses to share the worries of the court?”

As soon as he said this, Li Guangdi got up and knelt down and replied: "Ba Ye is serious, I am willing to be so heartbroken, this heart can only be expressed to the sky!" Said: "Confused? Don't you need it? Master Li is a capable minister, but he is troubled by his clan, how can he not think of a way to deal with such a small matter? Seeing that the imperial court is about to use troops to the northwest, could it be that the army has reached the border, and you still want the emperor? Worried about the safety of the capital?"

Li Guangdi didn't dare to answer, he just kowtowed non-stop, the eighth elder brother knew that he didn't dare to take over, as a Hanchen, he meddled in the flag affairs at will, could it be that he was tired of work?It's just that Prince Yu is in charge of these things now, if he stretches his paws a little to cross the boundary, he will not care about himself.

"Since you know you're wrong, why don't you make amends? Lord Li has been in this position for a long time, so it's time to make a move. Even if you can't talk about flag affairs, can't you handle the security of the capital?" Brother Ba thought that since everyone They are all smart people. When it comes to this point, if you don't understand it, you might as well not understand it for the rest of your life!

Li Guangde knelt on the ground, feeling as if he was in a dream, but there was still a trace of clarity telling him that the elder brother above seemed to have no malice towards him.The law and order of the capital city is indeed under my jurisdiction. As long as I avoid the poverty of the Eight Banners and only talk about the turmoil of the refugees, the emperor will arrange for the Eight Banners to be settled. I have the hearts of the nine races.

Looking up at the eighth elder brother who is seriously sipping chrysanthemum tea with his head down, he is just a boy who has not yet reached the weak crown. The boy of the world.Li Guangdi was in the Department of General Administration, and several elder brothers had seen him, but even the prince, who had a high status, didn't seem to have such a stable and dignified demeanor.

After earnestly agreeing, Li Guangdi didn't dare to have those thoughts anymore, and carefully replied to the situation he had mastered. If the eighth elder brother wanted to listen or not, he finally gave some pointers.

In the evening, Li Guangdi wrote the scriptures, saying that there were frequent incidents of fighting and killing people with knives in Manchuria. Today, the prince was almost injured. Fortunately, the prince was wise and wise, and defeated the gangsters.It can be seen that if the customs are weakened, the words of the sages must be enlightened, and it is better to make everyone honest and honest.There is no mention of the Eight Banners at all.

The eighth elder brother went to meet Kangxi when he returned to the palace. He neither said that he was injured nor how brave he was. He knew that Li Guangdi would naturally sing praises for him in his scriptures, so he didn't need to brag and lose his demeanor in front of Kangxi.He only mentioned his worries about the affairs of the Eight Banners and the rear of the Western Expedition.

Kangxi was overjoyed when he heard the words. This son always hides behind the elder brother's back. Although he is careful and steady in doing things, it always makes people feel that he lacks momentum and does not have the style of a general. Now it seems that it is just my family who has not grown up.Think ahead of yourself in everything, quite capable of assisting, and will become a great weapon in the future!

Under the delighted Kangxi Longyan, all the guards who went out with the eighth elder brother were rewarded and given sabers, and the few guarding the eighth elder brother were even raised in rank, and they were called to question him.After they explained their family backgrounds, they found that Kui Xu who contributed was Nalan Xingde's younger brother. In the blink of an eye, Rong Ruo had been gone for ten years. At that time, Kui Xu was granted the title of attendant of the Imperial Academy, serving as an official commentary on daily life.The eighth elder brother fulfilled his wish and didn't waste any energy. Huang Ama cared about the old man by himself, wouldn't it be better than what Baba asked for?

It's just that why do you have to have fun when you are happy in life?It's just because misfortune and good fortune are unpredictable, the eighth elder brother has been a human being for two lifetimes, but he still forgot this sentence.
