Kangxi 40 years

Siyefu

The sunshine at the end of May is already warming up. Several pots of peonies in Fujin courtyard are in full bloom. Luoyang red, lady makeup, Yulou Diancui, pink and moon white are particularly gorgeous and noble in the afterglow of the corridor.

Yilha, who stepped out of the house, trotted to the peony pot, and gently touched the blooming petals with jade-like fingers.Afterwards, Nanny Li smiled slightly, Ren Yierha had seen enough, and then led the two little Gege out of the courtyard.

In the main room, after a strange silence, Fujin glanced at Xi'er, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said coldly, "Xi'er has been fined for negligence and dereliction of duty for three months, as a warning to others."

Xi'er froze, and hastily kowtowed to apologize.Li Shi pursed her lips, but finally remained silent.

After the three princesses resigned and left, Shi Yao helped Fujin into the inner room, "Master, what does Nanny Li mean? How can she be so troublesome as an old and retired nanny?"

Fujin glanced at Shiyao, and sighed, "She grew up serving the fourth master, so naturally she only has that one master in her eyes. However, her words did remind me that this is the fourth master's mansion, and the fourth elder brother will do it. No one can complain about this decision, and Mrs. Li is too unsteady."

Outside Caohezhuang, when the morning dew was still there, the northern patrol army had already begun to move out of camp.

Lord Kangxi skipped the greetings from the princes early in the morning, and went directly to the imperial chariot after a rough breakfast.

When the fourth master's team flowed into the army, Su Wei deliberately observed from front to back, left and right, from the crown prince down to the sixteenth elder brother, guards in yellow jackets were added around him.The imperial guards and the guards of the mansions formed their own way, seeming to live in peace, but they have a clear banner.

Su Wei pursed his lips, and when he set off, he didn't rub the luggage cart as usual, but walked beside the fourth elder brother's horse all the way.

The transfer of the imperial guards last night seemed to be an ordinary arrangement, and Lord Kangxi did not give any explanation.It's just that the fathers-in-law near the imperial tent said that there have been many bandits making trouble outside Gubeikou recently. After the Holy Majesty learned about it, he was extremely worried about the safety of the princes.

At noon, the fourth elder brother galloped out of the imperial chariot to greet him. Lord Kangxi responded briefly, but did not show up.When he came back, Mr. Su was holding a water bag to drink, his usual fair face now only had a pair of big eyes and a little vitality.

The fourth elder brother bent his lips, and drove to Su Wei, "Go to the car and have a rest, it's noon, let's eat something."

"Okay," Su Wei nodded vigorously, and followed the fourth elder brother into the carriage with stiff legs.

Zhang Bao brought a pot of hot water from the car driver in the dining room, and Su Wei soaked two pancakes in the water, and had a rough but full lunch with the fourth elder brother with beef jerky and kumiss.

"What did the emperor say? Have those people in front of the imperial court followed us all the time?" Su Wei stuffed the last bite of pancake into his mouth, puffed his cheeks and asked the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother shook his head, "Huang Ama didn't mention these things, and now it seems that he is going to follow along. There is no movement from the prince and the elder brother, so it is even more difficult for us to say anything."

Su Wei blinked and lowered his voice, "Has the emperor noticed something? Why did he send someone down so suddenly?"

"Who can guess what Huang Ama is thinking," the fourth elder brother smiled weakly, "But since Huang Ama has nothing to do further, thinking about it is just suspicion. At this time, the more impatient, the more annoying People pay attention. We are outsiders, and the crown prince and elder brother are the most difficult."

The prince's team followed Luanjia in the northern patrol army, and the noble and grand chariot of honor was particularly conspicuous even after the Ninth Five-Year Lord.

Unlike before, the prince rested in the chariot throughout the tour, and did not ride on horseback with other elder brothers as before.On the contrary, the eldest son of the crown prince, Hong Rui, the elder brother of Yuqing Palace, has been riding his horse along with the team.

Behind the prince's chariot, there was a row of accompanying carriages. Yuqing Palace's second elder brother and third elder brother were all in the team. Afterwards, the prince's side Fu Jin Li Jia, Shu Fu Jin Lin, Gege Tang, and Fan each took one However, Shi Shi, who is the crown princess, did not follow.

At noon, the Northern Patrol Army did not stop to rest. Except for the emperor, everyone basically took care of the food by themselves.

At the prince's place, the serving servants set up a small stove by the side of the road early in the morning, and although the lunch they served was not exquisite, it was all hot dishes with all kinds of spices, but it was not what the prince wanted.The servants scratched their heads and carried the food boxes back and forth in the marching team to replace them. Hong Rui, who was riding a horse beside him, frowned secretly.

Xiao Chuzi took the lunch served by the servants for the fourth time, opened the lid of the box to see that it was still light and palatable, so he opened the curtain and got on the carriage.

In the chariot, the prince leaned on the apricot-yellow soft couch, the gilt car wall, and the autumn-colored cloud-patterned brocade edge hanging down, flowing in a line with the prince's slightly open python robe, which made An Sixiang, who was slowly rising from the side, stained. Some romantic and decadent taste.

"Your Highness," Xiao Chuzi got into the car, "The servant sent someone to exchange some light food. You should use some anyway. It's still an afternoon's drive."

The prince looked at the earnest little Chuzi, and reached out to take a bowl of millet porridge, "Are the people in front of the emperor still following outside?"

"Yes," Xiao Chuzi hesitated for a while, then nodded slightly, "There are quite a few people with the other elder brothers, even the fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother."

The prince sneered coldly, and handed back the half-drunk porridge bowl to Xiao Chuzi, "I want to take a nap for a while, so that people outside will stay away, and even blood relatives have to guard against the couch, how can these imperial guards Let the father rest at ease."

Xiao Chuzi blinked his eyes, consciously didn't pay attention to the prince's words, packed his things and took orders.

Siyefu

After lunch, Mo Yaqi went to Nanny Li's room. Nanny Li let Da Gege sit on the couch, and let the little maid serve a bowl of lotus leaf tea.

"Big Gege has been absent-minded since he came back from Fujin's place, but what do you want to say to this old slave?" Nanny Li's complexion was gentle and her voice was elegant.

Mo Yaqi pursed her lips, her eyes flickered slightly, "In the morning, I always felt strange when I heard what the nanny said to Xi'er, how could the nanny suddenly meddle in the affairs of Li Eniang's room when she is always kind to others. Later, Mammy talked about Ama again, I thought about it for a long time, and felt that Mammy's words seemed to mean something..."

Nanny Li smiled, "The servant's words are very direct, nothing special, just talking about the rules that a slave should abide by. Now the world is the world of the Aixinjueluo clan, and everyone is a slave in front of the royal family. In front of the emperor, the royal family is also a slave. This slave is the same as a slave. No matter how high your status is, you must be respectful and loyal in front of your master, and you can't just hold grudges. In our house, the fourth elder brother is the highest master. Although Fujin and the two Ge Ge are wives and concubines, they cannot surpass their status as master and servant."

Mo Yaqi blinked, thought for a moment, and a trace of shyness appeared on his face, "I know, I have been reminded by my mother, I will always remember the difference in status when I become a pro, and I won't—"

"Gege is wrong," Li Nanny interrupted Mo Yaqi, Mo Yaqi looked at Li Nanny puzzled, Li Momo curled her mouth, "Ge Ge forgot her last name?"

Mo Yaqi was taken aback, Li Nanny's voice was soft but word by heart, "If Gege is married to the son of the clan, it's a different matter, but if she is married to someone else, the difference between master and servant is completely different from that in our house. You are the eldest daughter of the fourth elder brother, and you will definitely bear the title of Dorogege when you marry in the future, no matter whether you are a high-ranking official or a Mongolian or Han nobleman, you cannot be called a "lord" in front of you."
