I just heard a few days ago that Yongzheng promised to go to Horqin to marry the princess.It's just that the choice of the princess is really a problem.

Yongzheng had only four biological daughters, all of whom died long ago, leaving no one alive.The only Heshuo Huaike Gege who was raised to get married passed away in 56 years of Kangxi.

Now that Yongzheng is going to marry the princess, it must not be his own daughter.Instead, the clan's daughter should be adopted as an adopted daughter, and then married off as a princess.

I saw Prince Yi Fujin Zhaojia at Nala's place that day, now that I think about it, I'm afraid it's not to complain about grievances to the thirteenth elder brother, but to intercede for his daughter.

Among the clan members, if the status is sufficient, and Yongzheng dares to rest assured that his daughter will be adopted as an adopted daughter and married to Mongolia, who else is there?

In addition to Prince Yi, there are Prince Zhuang and Elder Sixteen. Perhaps there is still Prince Gong added.It's just that among these brothers, only the daughter of Prince Yi's family is of the right age.

His family's Er Gege is now Jiji's year, and it's time to get married.

So Zhao Jia entered the palace to intercede.Er Gege is her biological daughter, so she naturally doesn't want her daughter to marry far away from Mongolia.In the Qing Dynasty, all the aunts who married on the grasslands, how could they have a long life?Heirs are also few.

Furthermore, it is thousands of miles away from the capital, and it is uncertain whether we will meet again in this lifetime. Prince Yi and Mrs. Zhao Jia, they are not only courtiers, but also parents, how can they not be worried.

Maybe because Mrs. Zhao Jia interceded with her daughter, she chose Liu Gege from the abolished prince's family to replace Er Gege from his family?This Shuhua... I really don't know whether to say that her life is suffering, or that she finally jumped out of that cage.

Glancing at Shuhua again, Yinqi said: "Sister-in-law and niece must have something to say, so I won't disturb my brother. Brother [-] will move out tomorrow, and my brother won't go to cause trouble. After you have settled down, I will come to the door to say hello."

Mrs. Guerjia nodded, watched Shuhua salute and leave, and the two of them walked slowly towards Brother Shiwu's yard.Yinqi went out a long way, and then looked back.

~~~~~~~

Back in her yard, when she entered the main room, she saw Yu Hong instructing little Sula to move things into the house.Yin Qi then asked: "What are these box after box? Why don't they put them in the warehouse at the back, but move them into the house."

Yu Hong hurriedly saluted, and said: "If you go back to the Lord, this is the new book just given by the emperor, and there is a box of books given to the Lord by the previous emperor in the past. Today the emperor sent someone to say that these books are all Let it be put in the study of the master, and told the master to read well. So the servants cleaned up and asked them to put them in the study for the master. The master often reads on the kang, and put a few books in the bedroom. "

Yin Qi ordered to open the box, and sure enough, he saw many new books that still smelled of ink, so he took out one from the inside, held it in his hand, flipped through it, and said, "That's fine. Put the new books in the study room, and the books that were originally given by the emperor , put the ones I've read in the bedroom."

Yu Hong complied, and continued to instruct those little Sulas where to put things.Yin Qi looked at the little eunuchs with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and couldn't help but sighed with a smile: "Our yard has been cleaned up a lot since we got a newcomer that time. We don't hear those noisy gossips anymore."

He sat on the chair, read the book nonchalantly, watched Yuhong busy back and forth, and praised: "Yuhong is becoming more and more capable. I often think that after two years, Yuhong will be released. I don't have such smart people around me."

Yu Hong quickly smiled and thanked Yinqi for her praise, and said: "Master, the slaves and maids will serve by the master's side for the rest of their lives. Even if the master drives the slaves out, the slaves will not leave."

Yin Qi smiled and said: "Good girl! But you are not young, I can't miss your life."

As he spoke, he calculated, and said, "Yu Hong is going to be twenty this year? It's really fast! That year when you came to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, you were only thirteen, right?"

Yu Hong pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "My master remembers it perfectly. That year when the maidservant entered the palace, the queen mother pointed her to serve him. The servant also remembers that the master was only three years old."

Yin Qi thought for a while, then sighed: "It's been seven years, it's really fast."

Someone was pinching his shoulders, Yin Qi closed his eyes comfortably, and said: "Hong Xiang is really capable, I just said something a while ago, did you go to learn how to pinch someone's shoulders?"

There was no one answering behind him, Yin Qi opened his eyes, turned his head, but saw the man with red eye circles.

Gao Hui forced a smile, and said, "Master, it's a servant girl. Hongxiang is in the yard of Master Sixteen. I'm afraid I'm too busy to forget."

Yinqi groaned, and said: "It's not that I forgot. I'm used to Hongxiang being around. She's been away for so many months, and she still feels unaccustomed."

Before the words fell, a girl in a dark purple dress and a white waistcoat came in from the door, and said with a smile: "Master, sister Hongxiang has arrived at Master Sixteen, but isn't Bixiang still by Master's side? Bixiang I feel that I am no worse than Sister Hongxiang."

She has a bright and beautiful appearance, and she is very touching when she smiles.Seeing her smile, Yinqi couldn't help but smile, but frowned deliberately: "Bixiang is no better than Hongxiang. Bixiang, you are too naughty, and I will be upset when you see it."

The girl smiled and said, "Then Bixiang will not be an eyesore in front of the master. Come on, Aunt Wen, let's take my dinner and leave."

Another girl's voice outside said with a smile: "Hey, sister Bixiang, let's go."

Yinqi heard the two of them singing together, so he slapped the table and said with a smile, "You are so courageous! I will kick you out when you come back! Aunt Wen, you have learned to be unruly, haven't you?"

Seeing that Aunt Bixiang and Wen brought up the food with a few young maids and eunuchs, while serving Yin Qi to eat, while chatting and laughing with him, Gao Hui's eyes were a little sad.

Yin Qi caught a glimpse of her twisting her handkerchief, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.It's just... Even if I'm sorry for the friendship with Gao Hui all these years, he can't leave such a hidden danger...

Although Gao Hui looks young, she is actually approaching 25.Seeing that she was about to leave the palace, if she had anything to do, she had to do it as soon as possible, so that it would not be in vain that the master behind her arranged such a dark thread here at Yinqi's place.

If she can't do it, let yourself provoke her to do it...

Only then can she follow this line and uncover the person behind her.

Get rid of future troubles forever, so you don't have to worry about it all the time, right?

Those things back then, the drugged tea, the purse sachet that smelled wrong, the chance encounters with a certain brother or nephew from time to time, the eyeliner in the yard...

And the quilt that nearly killed him.

It's time to do some reckoning.

~~~~~~~

Because the sixteenth elder brother was named King of Jiajun, the construction of his prince's mansion began when Kangxi was still there years ago, and his prince's mansion began to be renovated to the specifications of the mansion of the king.Yin Qi originally wanted to visit his mansion outside the palace, but was rejected by Yongzheng on the grounds that "the county prince's mansion is being renovated and it is in a mess, you might run into it if you go there. And the master's house has no time to receive you".

When Yinqi came out of Yongzheng's study pouted, he saw Hongli Hongzhou and Prince Zhuang talking outside.As he was walking down the steps, Prince Zhuang smiled and said: "What's the matter, I said that the emperor will not respond. If you want to go out to play, you might as well go to my house for a stroll, it will be easier."

Hong Zhou also said with a smile: "The emperor has been forcing us to study recently, saying that he must make up for the homework that the former emperor missed before and after the funeral, so why would he let you go out. If Uncle 23 wants to play, wait The emperor has moved to the Old Summer Palace in a few days, and you are making trouble in the capital without him knowing."

But Prince Zhuang said as he walked: "Even if the emperor moved to the Old Summer Palace, I'm afraid he will take you with him. The emperor just mentioned that when you are over twelve, you will all have to go on errands. If you don't keep you by my side, the emperor won't be at ease."

Hongli was originally walking on the sidelines and didn't intend to start a conversation with anyone.Hearing this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he didn't care about being rude, he quickly interjected: "Did the emperor really say that?"

Prince Zhuang glanced at him, turned to Yin Qi and said with a smile: "The other person didn't mention it, but he was the 23rd brother. The emperor also said that day that since the first emperor brought you to court, he was not afraid to give you the errand. Such a little elder brother, you have failed. In fact, you are not good enough, the emperor will escort you to kneel in front of the late emperor's spiritual throne, and ask you to make amends with the late emperor."

Yin Qi frowned when he heard that, and said: "Brother Shiqi, you are scaring me. Do you think I can trust you? I am only a little older. Brother Shiqi, you were in your 20s and you were still hanging out in elder brother's office. What about swaying. Do you think I will believe you?"

Prince Zhuang shook his head and said with a smile: "I am in poor health, everyone knows that. You are young and strong, are you afraid that the emperor will not use you? I am afraid that you will not be able to evade it."

Hong Zhou also laughed and said: "I heard that the emperor also went to the court to run errands on the 23th day of the year. It can be seen that this is the practice of our family. We Manchus have always grown up and headed the house early, haven't we? Hey, Uncle [-] , you should be prepared. If you are exhausted, you will be more distressed as a nephew."

Yinqi curled his lips and said, "You're only talking about me, aren't you two years older than me? You must take over the emperor's job earlier than me."

A few of them only said these words, while Hongli was a little anxious. Taking advantage of the gap between Yinqi's words, he hurriedly asked: "Uncle Seventeen, Uncle Twenty-three, don't talk about this first. I just want to ask, is the emperor Did you really say that you want to send us an errand? What kind of errand is that? Let me see, Hongzhou and I are still young, and we don’t know what we can do.”

Before Prince Zhuang could speak, Yin Qi curled his lips and said, "You heard him scaring you. You haven't seen Third Elder Brother, he's nineteen? —— I remember that I received a post saying that he was going to celebrate his birthday , It’s not been a few days. Do you think he has any errands? He’s not just wandering around. You don’t have to worry about it, and you still have a few more years to live.”

Hongzhou patted Hongli on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, don't be afraid of being tricked by the emperor as a puppet. Uncle 23 also knows the emperor, and since he said this, we can rest assured It's been a few years."

Then he clapped his hands again, and said with a smile: "Oh, I just thought about going out on business with me, and I felt a headache. I just met Uncle Thirteen that day, and he lost a lot of weight, and his braids are gray. I don't want to It's like that."

Prince Zhuang couldn't help laughing and cursing: "You're worthless! This is for you to share the worries of the emperor. As a son, you dare to shirk? You should come back and let the emperor teach you a lesson!"

This sentence was spoken in Hongli's heart, and he also had a serious expression on his face, and said: "Hongzhou, it's not that I am an older brother looking for trouble to teach you today, just look at what you said by yourself Do you think it is plausible? We do errands to share the labor for the emperor. This is what a son should do, but you dare to say lazy words! It is not unfilial! If you let me hear such words tomorrow, I will definitely Go back to the emperor, so I can teach you a lesson!"

Hong Zhou curled his lips and said, "Fourth brother, I'm just joking. If you take it seriously, it's really boring. When you look at me, brother, do you think you're such an irresponsible person? Me too. The emperor's son, at least knows the truth. You told the emperor what I said today, and the emperor knows that it was me joking with my uncles."

Seeing that their brothers were about to quarrel, Prince Zhuang hurriedly said: "Come on, it's also my fault, which caused you to bicker. And Yinqi should also twist his mouth. What are you joking about? Let the fourth elder brother But it was serious, and he instigated Hong Zhou to say those disrespectful words. The fourth elder brother is a good boy, and has always been serious, which is good. It's just that the brothers, and our uncle and nephew, said some jokes , don’t take it too seriously.”

Hongli only glared at Hongzhou, and he calmed down when he heard that Prince Zhuang's words meant that he was facing him.Hong Zhou stood beside Yin Qi with an indifferent look on his face, and stretched out his hand to play with the white belt around Yin Qi's waist.

Yinqi snatched his belt from him, untied the purse on his waist and handed it to him to play with, then said: "Si elder brother has grown up in recent years, but his temper has not changed, he is still so meticulous. , this is good, it has the style of our royal family. Alas, as an uncle, I am really ashamed to see that the more I live, the more I go back.”

Prince Zhuang patted his head and said with a smile: "You also know that you are going back as you live? This should also be blamed on us brothers who are always spoiling you and don't know how to teach you a few words. That's what made you like this."

Seeing that he was about to go to elder brother's house, Prince Zhuang said: "Today your sister-in-law went to pay her respects to the empress, and she was given a meal. I might as well go to Yinqi's yard for a meal. Yinqi, please don't dislike your elder brother. "

After Yinqi smiled and nodded, Prince Zhuang asked Hongli and Hongzhou again: "You two little ones, will you come with me?"
