The fourteenth blessing of the koi carp in the Qing Dynasty

After Kangxi said this, he went straight to the table, and he snorted, "Yinzhen, your table is quite strange."

At this time, the tables everyone used were Eight Immortals tables with sharp edges and corners. In the middle of Yinzhen's hot pot eating table was a stove built with green bricks. There was a large copper pot on it. Divided into red and white.There is a round table outside the blue brick, and there are several elder brothers sitting on the edge of the round table.

The tenth elder brother said proudly, "Khan Ama, this table was thought up by my son. We have many brothers, even if some brothers don't like to join in the fun, the fourteenth brother can't sit at the table." The Eight Immortals table has edges and corners, and at most two people can sit on one side, so he suddenly thought that it would be fine if all these edges and corners were removed.

Then he figured out this round table, a round table of the same size can seat half as many people as the Eight Immortals table.

The eldest brother to the fourteenth brother just sat at the same table and it was not crowded. The fifteenth brother took the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth brothers to sit with a few married nephews, and the rest of the little ones were just right with Hongxuan. Three tables.

Kangxi looked up at the room, and there was nothing else in the room, just four tables like this.

Elder Brother Ten came up to him, "How about it, Khan Ama, even if you don't eat hot pot in winter, you won't be cold if you eat around the stove. Isn't your son very talented?"

He raised his hand and lightly tapped Brother Ten, and he looked around, "Why didn't the fifth, seventh, and twelve come?" He knew that these three had a normal relationship with Fourteen, but Fourteen had no friendship with the eldest and the third. , Boss, they are all here.

"Huihan Mafa, Ahma has something to do and he can't get away." Hongsheng said with some embarrassment. He didn't understand what was wrong with Fourteenth Uncle. Let's eat together, why doesn't Ama look down on these things?Fortunately, although Amma himself did not come back, it would not stop him from interacting with his cousins.

Elder Brother Ten curled his lips, what's the matter, he clearly looked down on them.But he didn't say it because of Brother Jiu's words.

The atmosphere was a little stiff, and Fourteen said with a smile: "The three elder brothers of Khan Ama made an agreement with Er Chen yesterday, and they will not come today if they have something to do. You know that brother Qi has trouble with his legs and feet, especially in the cold weather, his legs" He Seventh brother's legs are only a little lame when walking on weekdays, and the pain will be unbearable in the cold winter season. Their brothers are free, and seventh brother can't force people to come here because it is inconvenient.

"Brother Twelve, it seems that my little nephew is sick again." Yinfen didn't know what was going on. The wives and concubines in the house had a lot of children, but few of them were kept. The son-in-law was still because Fujin gave him a lot of good medicinal materials, but the two children's physique was also very bad, and they often fell ill when the seasons changed.

As far as these two sons are concerned, Yinfen attaches great importance to them. He originally planned to bring his sons here today, but it is said that he did not come because he caught a cold last night and had some coughs.

Kangxi nodded, "I still have a lot of good medicinal materials in my private treasury, I'll let Li Dequan go there later." It's also strange, because the twelve heirs are struggling and he even wonders if he didn't choose the mansion well.

In this dazed effort, he found that everyone was standing and waved his hands, "Sit down, sit down, it just so happens that our father and son haven't had a meal together for a long time." Everyone looked at each other and finally sat down.

When Kangxi came, he naturally had to sit at the head. It was difficult to distinguish the head of the round table, so Kangxi was asked to sit facing the south.On the left and right of him are Yinzhen and Yinreng. These two are the current prince, the former prince and the first son, and they are indeed the most suitable.

In the past two years, Yinfeng has not been on errands, and he just walks around every day, and his health is better than before. Kangxi hopes that he will live a few more years, and seeing that he himself does not like to do errands, he assigns the errands to Hongxi And Hong Jin two brothers.In his mind, Yinreng can stop working, but he can't be without work. He is worried that others will look down on Yinreng after a hundred years, and the same is true for his son to share Ama's worries.

Yinzhen always has weird food here, and it's the same this time.They eat a lot of pots in winter, and he has never eaten such a soup pot. The red one looks very appetizing.

When Yinzhen saw this, he introduced it to him, "Khan Ama, this is called a mandarin duck pot. You see, the red one here is the bottom of the pot fried with chili from Fanbang. It is numbing and spicy. The white one is the bottom of the pot with big bones. It's more healthy." Among his brothers, only the fourth brother can't eat spicy food, although the other brothers can also be very spicy, haha, the chopsticks will still stick to the bottom of this spicy pot.

Yinreng stood up, picked up a chopstick of mutton roll, rinsed it in the spicy pot, and put it on the plate in front of Kangxi, "Khan Ama, try it, it's fun to eat in winter."

Kangxi took a bite of chopsticks, and the spicy taste rushed straight into his heart. He let out a sigh, "It's comfortable, everyone eats it." The bottom of this spicy pot is really choking, but the taste makes people love it more and more.He doesn't need to be waited on by others, he can cook whatever he wants to eat.

I tasted both pot bottoms, and finally focused on the spicy pot bottom.Seeing that the fourth elder brother had been eating the white soup, he shook his head, it's a pity that the fourth elder brother can't eat this delicacy.

Receiving Khan Ama's sympathetic gaze, the fourth elder brother tightened his hand holding the chopsticks, and then ate the white soup as if nothing had happened.

No way, who told him to be allergic to chili, not to mention vomiting and diarrhea after eating, and some small red bumps all over his body.

Seeing the look in his Ama's eyes, the tenth elder brother couldn't help but secretly laughed. If he said that the fourth elder brother deserved it, who made him keep a cold face, look at it, he was punished.

The tenth elder brother rinsed another dish with chopsticks and deliberately shook it in the fourth elder brother's direction, then stuffed it into his mouth, and closed his eyes happily.

"Childish" the fourth elder brother opened his mouth and sent the word ten elder brother.The tenth brother is such an old man, and he only knows how to eat. It seems that he should give the tenth brother some errands.

Although there was an extra Kangxi in this meal, everyone was a little restrained at the beginning, there were ten elder brothers and Yinzhen, Yinreng making jokes, but as time went by, everyone let go and chatted all over the place.

Kangxi couldn't get enough of the meal. He looked at these children and grandchildren and said, "You guys, the wool can't just be gathered by one person. I don't think it's better than this. Next month, everyone will go to the elders together. Starting from the eldest, every month One family, how about it?" One family a month, one year happens to be the sixteenth, and the next year the next year will continue from the seventeenth.

Probably because of old age, Kangxi has attached great importance to family affection in the past two years, and he is also happy to see his sons in harmony.

"That's a good thing, I'm sure I won't be polite to my elder brother then."

The elder brother sneered, "Second brother, you forgot again, you are under me, you are not polite, how can I be polite to you." When it was the second child's turn, he did not eat breakfast, Go to his house on an empty stomach to see who suffers.

The two began to bicker about what to eat again, but no one interrupted, and it was their brothers who benefited from their bickering.And it was quite interesting to see the two of them acting like children like this, even Kangxi laughed.

This is the first winter solstice after the establishment of the crown prince. The Manchu Qing Dynasty had the custom of offering sacrifices to heaven during the winter solstice, and this year is no exception.Yinzhen followed closely behind Kangxi as the prince, while Fo Erguochun followed the imperial concubine.

The sacrificial ceremony was cumbersome, and Foer Guochun broke out in a cold sweat in winter.As the crown princess, she had to be present the whole time, kneeling three times and knocking nine times. Although she was exhausted, she dared not be sloppy at all. If something went wrong, it would be very unlucky.At that time, if there is no need for ministers to recite, I am afraid that the emperor will have thoughts about her in his heart.

At the end of the fight, she began to feel dizzy, and Chunhe could tell that something was wrong with her from a distance, and when someone came over from the altar, she walked over quickly.Fo Er Guochun leaned on Chun He's body, Chun He whispered: "Master, are you alright?"

At this time, Foer Guochun still had to maintain her demeanor. She grabbed Chunhe's hand and forced herself to stand upright, "It's okay, I can still hold on." I really can't hear it.

Keeping smiling, the two leaned on each other and walked to the carriage. At this time, Foer Guochun had no strength at all.

He grabbed her with both hands behind him and carried her to the carriage.

"His Royal Highness."

Yinzhen nodded, and he looked at Foer Guochun, "Are you okay?" During the sacrifice to heaven, Khan Ama and Er Niang were in front, and next to him was Foer Guochun, so he naturally found out that something was wrong with Foer Guochun, It's just that he couldn't speak at that time, and he could only keep his worries in his heart.After the sacrifice was completed, he hurried over.

"It's okay, just a little bit out of strength." The princess's auspicious clothes are very heavy, and it is easy to get tired when wearing them.Maids and palace maids are not qualified to go up during the sacrifice, they can only go up by themselves, wearing clothes weighing nearly ten catties and bowing back and forth, can they not be tired?

In addition, she has been busy studying the rules and regulations in the palace recently, so she didn't have a good rest.

Foer Guochun only thought that she was too tired recently, and didn't think about other things at all, especially since she had her period last month.

"Go back and let the imperial physician take a look. The palace rules will be memorized after a long time. Don't worry and take your time."

Fol Guochun originally wanted to say that she was fine and that she would be fine after resting for an afternoon, but she passed out after returning home in the afternoon.Chun He didn't care about what she said earlier that she was not allowed to call the imperial physician, so she hurriedly called the imperial physician on duty.

"Miss Chunhe, don't worry, the princess is fine, she's just too tired."

Tired?How could her master be so tired that he fell asleep after practicing martial arts since he was a child?Chunhe acted like you don't lie to me.

"The princess is happy, so naturally she can't compare with others. Fortunately, the princess is in good health, so she doesn't need to take medicine. She can just rest for a few days." It is medicine that is three-point poisonous. Normally, he does not approve of taking medicine, unless it is time The point of last resort.

"But master just had menstruation some time ago." Could it be that it was not menstruation at that time, but fetal gas?

The imperial doctor smiled, "Girl, don't worry, this happens to some people, it's all normal."

When Foer Guochun woke up, it was already the beginning of the night. When she found out that she was pregnant, she subconsciously touched her lower abdomen, "I'm probably the most sloppy mother-in-law. It's not the first child, but I haven't found out until now." A little bit of reaction This baby is really no reaction at all, and I blame her for being too careless.

Yinzhen hugged her, wrapped her arms around her waist, and covered her hands, "Then I am the most sloppy Ama," he has never been out of the capital these years, and the two have lived together and have not deliberately avoided it. Pregnant, he now has five legitimate sons, he doesn't care too much about whether he has children, but he didn't expect to have another one.

The most sloppy duo looked at each other and smiled, and Foer Guochun said: "I can still imagine the expressions of Er Niang and Fourth Sister-in-law tomorrow." Tomorrow is exactly fifteen, and Fourth Sister-in-law and the others will enter the palace to pay their respects.

She is now in her 30s, and she can be regarded as an "old woman" in Daqing, not to mention that her son will get married in two years, and several of her nephews have become Ama.

With the temperament of the fourth sister-in-law and the others, it's strange that they don't make fun of her.

"What are you afraid of? Brother Thirteen just added a little princess." Brother Thirteen was older than him, so if he wanted to laugh, he would laugh at them first.He just pretended that those people were jealous of him.

What Yinzhen said was right, the news spread that the princess was pregnant again, except for those who were not favored and cursed shamelessly behind their backs, their eyes were red with jealousy.Others are envious, and those who are smart know how to use this to discipline their men.

You see, the prince has only one woman, the princess. Could it be that you are more expensive than the prince?

The prince respects his first wife, why do you spoil your concubine and destroy your wife because you are going to confront the prince?

It's not good for the emperor to be old, the world will belong to the prince sooner or later, so they naturally dare not fight against the future emperor.For a while, all the ministers treated their first wives a lot better. The relationship between the husband and wife has improved, not to mention the peace in the mansion, there are indeed several wives who are pregnant at an advanced age.

Foer Guochun was nine months pregnant and finally gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, so Yinzhen had six elder brothers and three little princesses.

Kangxi thought this was a good omen, otherwise how could he have given birth to twins of dragon and phoenix after he canonized the crown prince?If you want him to say that the crown princess is really capable of giving birth, adding these two will make eight children, whether male or female, eight heirs are enough.

So when someone cryptically mentioned that there were few women in the prince's backyard, he ignored it as if he hadn't seen it.

Kangxi doesn't care, it doesn't mean others don't care.Foer Guochun's two twin brothers are also starting to go to court now. After learning about this, the two of them investigated the minister who proposed to the prince Sai's woman.From his own official position to how many women in the backyard.

In a word, with this lord's official position, he absolutely cannot afford to support these people.

And the prince actually agreed to ask someone to investigate the person carefully.

How many officials are really clean and honest?Most of the time, he just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. This person is also unlucky. It's not good for him to mess with the Crown Princess.Bad luck now.Although they also felt that it was inappropriate for the prince to have only one woman, they also wanted to send their own woman in.

The emperor ignored this matter, and everyone knew that the emperor acquiesced in this matter.Many people are waiting and watching, some people think that the prince does not take concubines now, and when he ascends the throne in the future, he can't just guard the queen, right?If the crown prince still doesn't choose a concubine by that time, the censor probably won't be able to sit still.

This wait and see, the twins are one year old.After the twins were one year old, Kangxi suddenly announced the Zen position.

In March of the 58th year of Kangxi, Kangxi made the imperial concubine Wu Yashi the queen. On the sixth day of June, Zen was located in the crown prince Yinzhen, and the name was changed to Yongfeng. The next year was the first year of Yongfeng.

The first thing Yinzhen did when he ascended the throne was to canonize Foer Guochun as the queen, all brothers, and then Enfeng the queen mother's natal family and the queen's natal family.

It was only natural for Foer Guochun to be conferred the title of empress as a concubine Fujin, and it was only natural for Hongxuan to be crowned prince.

The new emperor's brothers have also been promoted, and Zhijun Wang and Chengjun Wang have become princes. The relationship between the two of them and Yinzhen is considered average.Prince Chen and Prince Yong enjoy double the prince's salary, and their titles are hereditary. They are a son of the original spouse and a brother of the new emperor, so they are naturally different from others.

Old Nine and Old Ten followed Fourteen from the very beginning, and they went up three levels in succession from Bei Zi to Prince.

The thirteenth elder brother has not received much attention since that year. He has always been a bald elder brother. He is the adopted son of the queen mother.

The rest of the fifth, seventh, etc. have been promoted to a level, as are the young elder brothers like fifteen and eighteen.

No one can tell a mistake in this reward, but the fifth elder brother still feels uncomfortable.He used to be Baylor, but now he is promoted to the county king. His status is not as good as that of the old ten who only knows how to eat and drink.Even if there are fifteen people behind him who are not as good as him, he always feels that other brothers are looking at him as a joke.

He felt that Yinzhen did it on purpose, so he became less and less careful in handling errands.

Yinzhen will not be used to the fifth child. He discussed this reward with Khan Ama and got Khan Ama's permission.There are more than a dozen elder brothers in his generation, and there are also nephews from the older brother's family. If you don't work hard, someone else will be able to stand up.

The Ministry of Officials is an important department, how can Lao Wu be allowed to spend his days at leisure like this.Seeing that the fifth child is so unmotivated, Yinzhen mentioned him a few times, and seeing that he still went his own way, he immediately gave up his position.It happened that Han Ama said that he should use Hong Xi and Hong Jin more, so he handed over the affairs of the official department to Hong Xi and his brothers.

When Kangxi knew about it, he just sighed deeply, but didn't say anything.It's up to Lao Wu to come out on his own. It's not like he didn't say it a few years ago.Fortunately, Yinzhen didn't implicate Hong Sheng and Hong Xun because of the fifth child. Although Hong Xun had a scar on his face, he still arranged errands for him according to his ability.

Even Concubine Yi kept apologizing to the Queen Mother and Foer Guochun after knowing this, saying that she hadn't taught the fifth child well.

"Concubine Yi, don't think about it too much. Just like what the Supreme Emperor said, the fifth child can only figure it out for himself. In fact, if I say that he is still young, he can just make two meritorious deeds to raise the emperor to a higher level. He is like this now. Even if the emperor wants to seal him up, there is no reason for him to do business negatively. Those ministers are all staring at him."

If we want to say who the women in the harem are the winners in life, it is undoubtedly the current Supreme Empress Wu Yashi.Wu Ya's family was born in Baoyi. After he ascended the throne, the emperor not only enshrined her brother as Duke, but also carried Wu Ya's family from the Baoyi Banner to the Yellow Banner of Manchuria.

This is a real turnaround. From then on, members of Wu Ya's family no longer need to serve others in the palace, but participate in the general election like other noble ladies from the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

In addition to Concubine De's natal family, Wanyan's family also received awards. Foer Guochun's eldest brother became a Duke, the second and third brothers were given the title of baron, and the two younger brothers were also made viscounts.

Kangxi was originally worried that Yinzhen would reward the Wanyan family in this way, and he was worried about affecting the imperial power if his relatives were too powerful.

Unexpectedly, Yinzhen smiled, "Ama Khan, Foer Guochun said that none of the daughters are going to marry the Wanyan family, that's why I gave them this honor." In his plan, Hongxuan's wife Fujin It cannot be from the Wanyan family, but Hongyu can marry a Fujin from the Wanyan family.

As soon as he said this idea, Fol Guochun rejected it, and her attitude was very firm.Although he didn't understand why, since Foer Guochun insisted, he would not object.

The Tulu brothers have good tempers, he can't guarantee that the other Wanyan clan is the same, and he doesn't want to have a dispute with Fo Erguochun because of the Wanyan clan.

Not being married is actually pretty good.

Kangxi didn't expect that Foer Guochun would say such a thing, he saw many people who would benefit his mother's family Bala once he gained power.In his opinion, marrying the royal family is undoubtedly the greatest benefit, and Foer Guochun can persuade her natal family to refuse.This is really rare and surprising.
