[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

In the first lunar month, it is the day when every family pays New Year greetings to each other and eats wine.

Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shuwan and the fourth elder brother took their children to visit the brothers' home.After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the fourth elder brother entertained his trusted ministers at home.

Today is the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, Nian Gengyao, governor of Sichuan, came to the mansion to see him.The fourth elder brother asked Shuwan to prepare food and drinks, and asked Kang Bao and Xiaobao to accompany him.

The fourth elder brother valued Nian Gengyao, so Shuwan put all her heart into preparing the food and drinks.

Nian Gengyao is currently the governor of Sichuan. Last year, someone involved him in delaying the military plane. The emperor called him back to Beijing to report on his duties. It is not yet known whether he will be promoted or demoted.

Shuwan didn't understand Nian Gengyao, nor did she want to.She has always acted according to the opinions of the fourth elder brother. If the fourth elder brother asked Haosheng to entertain him, she would entertain him well.Anyway, Nian Gengyao only visited the palace once in a few years, and this time he was returning to Beijing to report on his work. I don't know when the next time he will come to Beijing!

Shuwan ate lunch with Guaibao. This kid has special preferences. He doesn’t like yams and pumpkins and other soft, glutinous and easy-to-digest foods. He is not interested in fine rice and white noodles. He likes barley rice, buckwheat rice, and sorghum rice the most. Wait for coarse grains.

But he was too young to digest these coarse grains, so Shuwan didn't dare to feed him more, which always made the little ancestor frown and pout.

Kang Bao used to laugh at this younger brother, that his taste is not very noble, but he is small but difficult to serve.

Shuwan coaxed Guaibao to have lunch, played with him for a while, and coaxed him to take a nap.As soon as the child fell asleep, Kang Bao and Xiao Bao came back.

Kang Bao looked at Guaibao who was sleeping, and gently touched his face, "This kid is only cute when he is asleep."

Xiaobao leaned on Shuwan's shoulder and said, "Emiang, Ama said to bring Nian Gengyao over to greet you later."

Shuwan frowned, "Greetings to me?"

This is really strange, the fourth elder brother never let his trusted ministers visit him before, Nian Gengyao is very special!

"Emiang, Nian Gengyao is a bit arrogant." Kang Bao reminded Shuwan, "If he says something that is not pleasant, Emiang, don't be as knowledgeable as him, just pretend that you didn't hear it."

Shuwan frowned even tighter, "Why, what did he say to offend you?"

Kang Bao shook his head with a smile, "That's not true, he didn't dare. It's just...Ama and I have different employment habits! If it were me, no matter how talented Nian Gengyao is, I wouldn't use him. If there is no other way If I reuse him, I won't be too generous to him."

Shuwan asked Xiaobao: "What about you?"

Xiaobao spread his hands, "What does it have to do with me? I am the second son, and I will be raised by my brother in the future. As long as my brother works hard enough, my childhood will be happy enough."

Kang Bao was so angry that he tugged at Xiao Bao's ear, "Stinky boy, drive you crazy!"

"Go, go, go and call outside." Shuwan asked them to go outside to communicate with each other, "I want to change clothes and dress up, and I have to meet people in a while!"

Kang Bao pinched Xiaobao's ear and walked out, Xiaobao yelled and begged Shuwan for help.

Shuwan pretended not to see, got up and went into the inner room to find clothes.

Shuwan changed into a more solemn dress and added a few more jewelry on her body before going to the main hall where she received guests.

In the main hall, the fourth elder brother and Nian Gengyao were talking.Seeing Shuwan coming in, Nian Gengyao hurriedly got up and saluted.

Shuwan was very polite to him, "Sit down quickly! There is no one else here, so you don't have to stick to these common etiquette."

Nian Gengyao lowered his head, looking very honest.

"Fujin is safe and healthy. I don't know if the Shu brocade and tea I brought from Sichuan suit Fujin's wishes. There is nothing good in Sichuan and Shaanxi, so I picked and bought some local products. I hope Fujin will not dislike them."

Nian Gengyao's New Year gift was delivered long before the New Year. The Shu brocade was indeed beautiful, and the Mengshan tea was sweet and rich, and the taste was sweet and mellow.

Shuwan nodded with a smile, "The things are very good, I can't bother you."

Nian Gengyao bowed his head and said, "Prince Fujin likes it, this is my blessing."

Shuwan thought in her heart: She looks very polite, not as arrogant as Kang Bao said.

Shuwan and Nian Gengyao really had nothing to talk about, they could only ask about the customs of Sichuan and Shu, and greet Nian Gengyao's family.

There are Si elder brothers talking next to me, and the atmosphere is not bad.

After chatting for a few words, Shuwan planned to leave.At this moment Nian Gengyao got up suddenly and saluted Shuwan very solemnly.

"I have a younger sister who is only twenty-eight years old. She is in the prime of her youth. If she can enter the mansion to serve Prince Fujin, it will be considered her good fortune, and she will not come to this world for nothing. I wonder what Prince Fujin intends?"

Shuwan: "..."

She glanced at the tea on the table, feeling regretful.

It's a pity, the tea is cold, and splashing it on his face won't ruin his face.

Shuwan looked at the fourth elder brother with a half-smile, no wonder she asked the outsider to greet me, so she was waiting for me here!

Shuwan was burning with anger and jealousy, wishing to give these two cheap men a few big mouths.

The fourth elder brother knew that something was wrong without looking at Shuwan's expression, he hurriedly scolded: "What the hell! I think you are drunk at noon, and your mind is not clear!"

Nian Gengyao still lowered his head, seemingly respectful, but deep down he was arrogant.

"My lord, Fujin, forgive me. I got drunk and slipped my words for a while. But I am wholeheartedly for the lord and Fujin. The younger sister of the minister is dignified and elegant, with a pure heart, and is good at taking care of others. If the younger sister of the minister serves the lord and Fujin, it is It's like serving the prince at the side of the prince. The minister can feel at ease when he is doing things for the emperor and the prince in Sichuan and Shu."

Shuwan rolled her eyes, she asked the fourth elder brother: "My lord, what do you say?"

The fourth elder brother felt apprehensive, wasn't this trying to destroy his family?

The fourth elder brother hastily stated, "Your sister must have grown up with a lot of love and affection. Your family is a family of poetry, books and etiquette. It is not easy to spend a lot of effort to raise a girl. You have wronged your sister by coming to the palace to serve others. You give your sister Choose someone carefully, and then I will ask the emperor or the queen mother to give her a marriage."

Nian Gengyao didn't know what it meant to accept as soon as he found it, but he still insisted on sending his sister to Prince Yong's mansion.

"Which other family in the world can compare to Prince Yong's Mansion? The prince is kind and kind, and Fujin is magnanimous. I think that Prince Yong's Mansion is the best destination."

Shuwan laughed out of anger, Nian Gengyao!You look very well-behaved in speech and behavior, and seem to respect the master, but once you touch his real thoughts, he doesn't care who you are, he must achieve his goals.

It doesn't matter that you are a prince, I will stick to my own ideas, as long as you still need me one day, you have to agree to my request.

This person is surprisingly tough, no wonder Kang Bao said he was arrogant.

The fourth elder brother took a few deep breaths, and he seemed to be very angry. He hated others to force him, and Nian Gengyao had touched his minefield.

Shuwan patted the fourth elder brother on the arm, she pointed to herself, and the fourth elder brother nodded, agreeing to let her come forward.

"Master Nian." Shuwan raised her legs and leaned on the armrest of the chair very relaxedly, "What do you want?"

Nian Gengyao paused, keenly aware of the change in Shuwan's tone.Just now Sifujin was holding it, but now she is very relaxed, this kind of relaxation makes people feel strange...

"I don't have anything else to ask for, I only wish the prince Fujin to be safe and healthy."

Shuwan sneered, "Oh, it's boring for you to pretend like this. There are many people who want to take refuge in the prince, but there are not many who can make the prince look up to him. There are only a handful of people who can come to this main hall and pay my respects. The prince likes you, it may be because you have accumulated great virtue in your previous life."

Nian Gengyao thought to himself, Sifujin's words were enough to hurt her.

Shuwan continued: "It can be seen that you are an ambitious and powerful person. You cling to the prince because you want the officials to prosper, and hope that someone in the capital can protect you so that you can rest assured when you are released as an official." Show off your skills.

I always hear the prince mentioning you, you are indeed talented, and you can be reassuring in your work.But... Who gave you the confidence to make you think that the prince would agree to your request?

If you can directly state your request, the lord and I may still agree. When you pretend to be good for the lord, I feel hypocrisy and disgusting to my ears. "

The fourth elder brother smiled, letting Shuwan play freely.He didn't like Nian Gengyao's dominance very much, and everything Shuwan said was in line with his wishes.

Nian Gengyao raised his head with his lips pursed. Although his eyes were still looking at the ground in a regular manner, his expression was full of dissatisfaction.

"Thank you Fujin for teaching me, I know I was wrong."

"Look, look, just finished talking about you, and you haven't made any progress! It seems that you have fallen on deaf ears to what I said!"

Shuwan sighed and shook her head again, as if Nian Gengyao was a piece of rotten wood that could not be carved.

"What did I just say? Go straight to the point, and ask for it. The prince and I admire capable and ambitious people. Since we have the ability, why not be a little arrogant? The prince can tolerate it, and appreciates this kind of ambition. On the surface, you Be as good as a little white rabbit, and persecute the prince behind every word, this is too ugly.

If you have a request, just ask, if you want a reward, just say it, if the prince can do it, he will give it to you without hesitation. "

Nian Gengyao raised his eyes, showing his sharpness.

"I want to ask for the position of Fujin on the side of the palace for my younger sister."

The fourth elder brother frowned in displeasure, while Shuwan smiled and clapped her hands.

"Look! If you say it openly, it will make people feel a lot better!"

After saying this, Shuwan immediately suppressed her smile.

"But no!"

Nian Gengyao secretly gritted his teeth, he was tricked!

"Prince Yong's mansion doesn't have a side Fujin yet. How can the Nian's name be so good? Entering the mansion is the prince's side Fujin? The prince's side Fujin is not easily granted. Regardless of whether this side Fujin is favored or not, she is in the jade plate. There are records. If she is lucky enough to be liked by the prince and give birth to a son and a half daughter, that would be even more extraordinary.

Nian has no credit, no qualifications, and is unworthy of being a side Fujin, so her natal family should do something.Are you the governor of Sichuan, or have you been given a copy? I don’t know if you were promoted or demoted to the governor.Do you think it's up to you, does your girl deserve to be a side Fujin? "

Shuwan sneered, "Let's move your father and your brother out!"

Nian Gengyao took a deep breath, "I was only ginsenged once, who has not been ginsenged by the court ministers? It is absolutely impossible for me to be ginsenged once and never have a bright future. Is the minister capable, please ask the prince and Fujin will wait and see."

Shuwan stood up and yawned lazily, as if she had no interest in Nian Gengyao's words.

"Many things in this world are transactions. How much effort do you have to do for the prince to become the prince's uncle? It's hard to say. Even if I become the prince's brother, I can't let your sister give birth to the prince's child. Threatening me. I really don't know if it's worth it in exchange.

But it's too early to talk about these things. I only know that you are unworthy of young adults. "

After speaking, Shuwan left the main hall directly, and the fourth elder brother also followed out, leaving Nian Gengyao to kneel on the ground alone.

The couple walked away, the fourth elder brother caught up and smiled at Shuwan: "After all, Fujin is the best, why do I like to listen to what you say so much!"

Shuwan sneered, "Don't worry, let's go back to the main room, I still have a lot to say to you!"

For example, is it your idea that Nian Gengyao wants to present his sister, or why you didn't hate him just now, is it possible that you really want to take a concubine?

The fourth elder brother hurriedly begged for mercy, "Isn't this Fujin here? With you here, I can save trouble and not waste my words. If you are not here, I will definitely refuse and order someone to beat him!"

Shuwan smiled and nodded, "It turns out that elder brother is a hardliner! Okay! Let's go back to the room and talk carefully about how to be tough!"

The fourth elder brother went back to the main room with Shuwan with a bitter face, scolding Nian Gengyao half to death in his heart.

It's really mud that can't support the wall. I was born to overcome me. I made a face for him, but he returned me a fire pit.
