The Struggle History of the Fourteenth Qing Dynasty

"The Clan Order is the chief official of the Clan Mansion." The fourth elder brother said: "The Clan Mansion is in charge of the clan roster of the emperor's nine clans. No., burial. All clans state their requests, report to the emperor for them, bring in talented people, and record crimes and faults. What's so funny about that?"

The fourth elder brother is a gentleman, and he hasn't thought of anything wrong.

The same was true for Kangxi outside the window, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with the Zong Ren Ling.

"Brother, you are really a solid-minded person!" Elder Fourteen laughed out loud, "Think about it, our Uncle Wang is on the same level as Huang Ama, right? Not the highest generation Well, I don’t have Huang Ama’s out-of-sight and out-of-mind status. The Zong Renling became a person, which seems to be very beautiful, but look at what the Zongren Ling is going to do? Whose old man went away in the middle of the night in the morning? Report to the clan mansion, if it’s a distant relative, it’s okay, but most of them are the elders of our family, Uncle Chang Ning has to go to cry in plain clothes or even wearing mourning, at least for a while? Leave this house for a funeral In the afternoon, someone gave birth to a fat baby, wash three, full moon, don’t you go and see it? Serve the jade plate or something, right? He has to change clothes and lick his face to congratulate the other party on getting a baby! What about in the evening? Who will marry a daughter-in-law in the evening, and accept Fujin, and he has to change his clothes and go to the door for a wedding banquet. Will the wedding be happy? From morning till night, people are crying and laughing, and everyone is going to be smart! "

You must know that ancient weddings are different from modern ones. Modern people pay attention not to pass twelve o'clock, but ancient weddings must be held at dusk.

How about calling it "marriage"? Marriage is at dusk.

In fact, Xiao Shishi just wanted to understand that the work of Zong Renling was not done by humans.

Because there are too many things to be in charge of, and there are few people in Manchuria. They are all relatives. Can you say no?

"Not only to go, but also to make a gift, and it has to be appropriate. You can't give a wedding gift to a newcomer. You go out in the morning and go to someone's house covered with white sails and filial cloth?" Not good looking.

The fourth elder brother has been dumbfounded by his brother's explanation, okay?

And outside the window, Kangxi couldn't laugh or cry, he never thought that Chang Ning's Zong Renling would do it in such a way.

Thinking about it, the seniority of the three brothers is high or low, full of people and few people, they are all relatives, and they have to go to the clan's house for trivial matters.

Although it is said that there are not many people in the Manchu population, compared with the Han people, it is really quite a lot. If something happens to a family, the clan government must come forward to solve it.

This is true for the Eight Banners in Beijing, and even more so for the Eight Banners in other places.

A draft every three years is enough to keep the family busy; in addition, the Eight Banners are not only the full Eight Banners, but also the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners.

There must be a lot of things, he took over Chang Ning's military power, just beat him, and this patriarchal order, he didn't want him to continue working.

Those two women didn't matter, but his son didn't learn to respect the imperial power and dared to provoke the prince, elder brother, damn it.

But that one looks good for the balance.

Just because the mother is not good does not mean that the son is not good.

Just like Wei Shi, she has a heavy heart, but Lao Ba is a good boy, as gentle as jade.

He has the style of a gentleman at a young age.

"Brother, is Huang Ama very angry?" Little Fourteen asked the fourth elder brother again.

"Shouldn't it? You're vomiting blood." The fourth elder brother also felt uncomfortable.

"No, the matter between children and women has bothered Huang Ama." Xiao Shisi glanced at the corner of the window outside, which was reflected on the window.

He doesn't say orders and prohibitions here, but no one would dare to listen to his words blatantly, only Huang Ama is here.

If it was Defei Erniang, she would see the flag on her head.

"This is not an ordinary child's vindictive matter. You are still young and don't understand those things. Huang Ama naturally has his reasons for doing things. Uncle Chang Ning also knows it. Besides, women in the backyard should keep their own place and stretch their hands too long. It’s not good.” The fourth elder brother said righteously: “The rooster is in the morning, it is not necessary in our Qing Dynasty, when Uku’s mother had no choice, Huang Mafa died young, and Huang Ama was too old Ascend to the throne, if Wuku's mother doesn't get tough, what's going on with our Aixinjueluo family in this palace!"

"Brother got it, brother, how about eating white meat and blood sausage tonight? Let's have some clear soy sauce mixed with garlic." Xiao Shishi changed the topic and changed it to a safer diet.

"Why did you think of eating that?" The fourth elder brother looked at him: "The blood sausage is very good. It nourishes the blood. By the way, you have to eat one of the donkey-hide gelatin dates that your sister-in-law gave you every day."

Sifujin entrusted someone to find the best donkey-hide gelatin dates and came back, and presented a portion to the empress dowager, and gave a portion to Concubine De and Concubine Min, and kept one for himself, and the rest after knowing that Xiao Shisi vomited blood , I sent it over immediately, and gave Xiaoshishi a big one!

"Eat, there is food every day, never miss a meal!" Little Fourteen hurriedly explained: "Eldest Nanny, Sun Nanny and Ma Lianying are very strict."

He didn't say that after he vomited blood and came back, Grandma and Ma Lianying looked like the sky was falling.

The girls were all crying, and everyone's tears almost drowned him!

During these few days of recuperation, okay, the soup and water have never stopped.

It is a true portrayal of pain and happiness.

"Everyone cares about and loves you." The fourth elder brother was happy: "Did Huang Ma also send someone to see you?"

"That's right!" Little Fourteen said happily, "Emperor Ma is the best for me!"

"That's because Huang Ma gave you two big gold ingots to scare you, right?" The fourth elder brother knew his younger brother's temper very well, and he was the most vulgar thing that liked gold and silver.

I didn't see him liking jewelry much, but he just recognized money.

He didn't know that modern people basically have such a dog temper.

Moreover, gold and silver in the Qing Dynasty are more valuable to preserve than banknotes.

The two brothers began to talk about the mountains, mainly the little fourteen chirping, and the fourth elder brother occasionally said a few words, which showed that the little fourteen was lively, and Kangxi quietly left with peace of mind.

This relieved everyone outside who knew that Kangxi was coming.

Especially the grandma and the others, they are even more afraid that the fourteenth master will offend the long live master if he doesn't know what to say.

The thirteenth elder brother who the fourth elder brother picked up at night came here, and the third elder brother was going to have dinner.

It turned out that the meal at night was given by Emperor Kangxi, not only the white meat and blood sausage that Xiaosi wanted to eat, but also grilled elbow, pork skin jelly, roasted venison, red stewed meat, cabbage vermicelli, roasted wild boar, roasted yellow lamb, casserole Bear meat, chicken stewed with mushrooms, pork stewed with vermicelli, stewed sauerkraut, vinegared cabbage, simmered Hash ant, etc.

It's okay to eat three or five dishes usually, but this time the table was full, and the corners of Xiao Shisi's mouth twitched when he saw the Northeast-style dishes with pure Manchu characteristics.

The characteristic of Manchu cuisine is that it is very rich in taste and heavy. Although some people do not recognize the Northeast cuisine, but from the perspective of facts, Northeast cuisine has its own characteristics in terms of raw materials, seasonings, and cooking techniques.

Manchu cuisine is based on Northeast cuisine, with more refurbished tricks. In fact, many Northeast dishes are Manchu cuisine, with the original flavor and no change.

Xiao Shisan also came to eat, and when he saw so many delicious food, he cheered, "Fourth brother, it's time to eat! Xiao Shisi, move your chopsticks quickly."

And the fourth elder brother saw what dishes Yuci had given him, and he knew that Kangxi must know what to order this afternoon.

He tapped Xiao Shishi on the head with his chopsticks: "You, you!"

Little Fourteen gritted his teeth, and gave his brother a piece of stewed chicken with mushrooms, "Brother, eat mushrooms. These are hazel mushrooms from Changbai Mountain outside the pass."

The fourth elder brother ate the hospitality offered by the little fourteenth.

After dinner, they went out of the room for a walk, just strolled in the yard to digest food, and then went back to each other.

In the evening, Little Fourteen called Nanny Sun over. Compared with Grandma Fei Moshi, Nanny Sun made mistakes, but that was not on her own initiative. Master Fourteen called her to order a small matter. .

Grandma Sun patted her chest and promised to do it well: "Young Master, don't worry, I will let my son do it. The husband of this servant is an honest man, and he will never ask anything that should not be asked."

Grandma Sun has three sons and a daughter in her family. The daughter is married, and her husband is a petty official in the House of Internal Affairs. The whole family is a coated slave who eats the imperial rations.

There is basically no fire in their house, and even meals are eaten by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Okay, then I'll give the TOEFL to Nanny." Little Fourteen was very proud to see Nanny Sun leaving quickly.

It is better to use it than to work.

After Sun Nanny experienced the incident of falling into the water, no matter in front of the master or the slave, she was stained, and she would always be overwhelmed by the eldest nun Fei Moshi.

But being able to regain the attention of the fourteenth elder brother and entrust things is a good start, which means that the fourteenth elder brother can still trust her and need her.

After Grandma Sun left, Grandma came in: "Master, it's time to rest."

"Eldest Mother, aren't you jealous?" Little Fourteen pointed at the back of Grandma Sun as she walked out: "Nurse Sun's back is straight."

"She didn't even bend her back." The eldest mother was happy: "Besides, I need a few such people around me to be at ease."

Similarly, the eldest mother also understands the truth that hard work is not as good as practice.

Xiao Shisi Yile: "Then there is one more thing I want the eldest mother to help with. Do you have connections in Shengjing?"

"My servant's younger brother is working in the Shengjing General's Mansion, he is a lieutenant general." The eldest mother's words are quite surprising: "Now my younger brother and his family are in Shengjing, and I have never thought about returning to the capital."

In Shengjing, a lieutenant is basically a high official, and in the Qing Dynasty, development outside the pass was prohibited, and those who could have Zhuangzi outside the pass were basically royal family members.

But in the capital, there are eight hundred if not one thousand lieutenant generals. There are so many dignitaries here, and they might be dispatched to Ninggu Pagoda anytime soon.

"Then please do me a favor, Grandma." Little Fourteen took out a 1000 tael banknote and handed it to Grandma: "Buy a yard and two shops in my hometown in Shengjing. It’s a small business that can support a family.”

The eldest mother was puzzled: "Master, who do you want to support?"

"A genius!" Little Fourteen said temporarily, "Don't tell others."

"Eldest mother knows." The eldest mother put away the things. The young master is only seven years old, but he is already very extraordinary. If he were 17 years old, she would have thought that the young master would raise a woman, but he was raised in Shengjing... Is it too far?

Little Fourteen had to plan ahead, because his uncle sent someone to bring news that Dai Zi had already joined forces with Nan Huairen for the manufacture of weapons, or firearms.

He is about to be demoted.

Little Fourteen had recuperated for half a month, the imperial physician came and went several times, asking for pulse every day, and became familiar with those who came and went, and Xiao Fourteen knew that the imperial physician's surname was Sun, Sun Qian, Sun Xingjian, and the word was "Tian Xingjian" , a gentleman strives constantly for self-improvement".

He is from the Xinglin family, a pediatric expert conscripted by the imperial court, in order to be responsible for the health of the little princes.

This day, one big and one small, one was lying on the kang, and the other half-kneeled there to check the pulse. Little Fourteen sent the others away. Doctor Sun said with a look of lovelessness: "Master Fourteen, you are in good health."

"But I'm dizzy!" Little Fourteen spoke forcefully.

"You're too lazy to lie down!" After half a month's contact with Sun Qian, he knows this fourteenth elder brother too well, he is simply a monster, but no one else thinks about it, and he dare not say it out.

"I have no strength in my limbs."

"You just need to move more."

"I have chest tightness and shortness of breath!" He said and coughed twice.

"You speak with confidence, where is it short? Except for your short body."

"Physician Sun, you were not like this before." Little Fourteen resented very much.

"When I first met you, you were still alive and kicking, Brother Fourteen, but after half a month, I think you are still alive and kicking, Brother Fourteen, I don't understand, why do you have to pretend to be sick? ?” Sun Qian is also the first and the second elder.

This fourteenth elder brother's method is really simple and rude. After the pulse diagnosis alone on the first day, he said that he would tell him that the disease is as serious as possible. It is best to let him rest for ten days and a half months. If you don't listen to him, vomit blood again and show him.

On the other side, his nanny sent someone to give his family a 100 tael silver note, two bolts of silk and satin, one hundred catties of rice, and one hundred catties of pork.

Not much to say, but in the eyes of Sun Taiyi's family, who lives in the capital, it is a generous gift.

Dr. Sun has only one wife, two sons and one daughter in his family. He lives in a simple courtyard house. He employs two old mothers to wash and wash, and two long-term workers to do some chores for his family. His monthly salary is 20 taels of silver, fifty taels of silver. Jin Lumi.

He managed to earn enough food and clothing in the middle of Beijing, and his extra income came from seeing a doctor for the children of various wealthy families. The medical fees and red envelopes he earned were the bulk of his income.

But no one gave 100 taels of silver, Sun Qian even had the heart to hit the wall at that time!

Being an imperial physician in the palace is a dangerous profession, and you can't accept money from unknown sources!

But he couldn't get it back because the money was spent. His wife took the money, plus their family's savings, and bought the courtyard house with the landlord. They used to lease the house, but now they are the landlord.

The silk and satin were also torn to make clothes, and the pork was also cooked, so why return it?

What's more, the person who came here was dressed in a coat, and he only said that he was ordered by the nobleman to deliver something to Sun Taiyi's family.

The nobleman is ranked fourteenth... what else does Sun Taiyi not understand?

"Let me rest for another two days!" Little Fourteen really didn't want to go to school. Going to school in Shangshufang was a kind of torture, and he couldn't understand many things, and the content of the lessons was also confusing.

"No, Fourteenth Master, you are obviously healthy, I dare not prescribe medicine for you." Sun Qian made up his mind to announce to the Fourteenth Master that he was cured.

"Come on, there is something to discuss." Little Fourteen was not reconciled.

Just when he was about to cheat, Kangxi came!
