Kangxi 44 years

October, brother

The fourteenth elder brother was sent back to the elder brother's place with injuries all over his body. When Wanyan saw him, he almost passed out.

The imperial doctor was recruited and the medicine was given, and the outside of the yard was guarded.

The fourth elder brother stood outside the bedroom door, looked at the fourteenth elder brother lying motionless on the bed, and shook his head silently.

"Fourth brother, Yinti was confused for a while, please bear with me," Wanyan's face was tear-stained, and the handkerchief in her hand trembled unceasingly.

The fourth elder brother let out a sigh of relief and didn't talk about anything else, but his voice was extremely cold, "Let Yinti recuperate well, Huang Ama won't lock him up for too long, the fourth elder brother will go back first."

"Fourth elder brother, let's go," Wanyan blessed his body and sent fourth elder brother out of the door.

The guards outside the door flashed their armor, and Wanyan stepped back unconsciously.

"Fujin," Shantao hurriedly stepped forward to support Wanyan, Wanyan shook his head lightly, his voice trembling slightly, "this time, our master really did something wrong. Fourth Brother, I'm afraid it won't work for a while. Relieved."

"Fu Jin, don't think so much," Shantao helped Wanyan's family to walk into the house, "Didn't our master and young master have contacts with the fourth elder brother? The young master is planning to enter the fourth master's mansion, in the fourth elder brother's study Walking. With them working together, there is no barrier between brothers."

Wan Yan shook his head and wiped away the tears on his face, "At this time, father and elder brother cannot be involved, otherwise the fourth elder brother will definitely be taboo. You should try to send someone to send a message so that father and elder brother must not be in the four Mention this matter in front of my master. Everything will be discussed after our master lifts his restraint."

Shan Tao pursed her lips, bowed her head and accepted the order, "Yes".

In the bedroom, the fourteenth elder brother was lying on the pillow, the injury on his back was burning, and he was not very energetic.The serving servant soaked the veil and wiped the sweat off the face of Fourteenth Elder Brother.

Wan Yan walked to the bed with a cold face, took the handkerchief from the servants, waved his hand to signal them to retreat, and then helped Brother Fourteen wipe the blood on his back.

"Fu Jin has something to say to Master, just say it straight," Elder Fourteen lowered his voice, his eyes were cold.

Wanyan laughed lightly, and his subordinates exerted their strength evenly, "Master, I was too worried. I am a woman, so what else can I say at this time. Master played a hero in front of Huang Ama, for the love of eating, drinking and having fun. I don't hesitate to fight against my own elder brother. I am so clear about righteousness, I should applaud and celebrate my master. However, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of bed with my master's stick, so let's rest peacefully .”

Brother Fourteen took a deep breath, and slowly clenched his hand into a fist, "If I don't speak up for the starling today, I will be an ungrateful villain in front of my brothers in the future. I want to stand with my own brother in everything , but when will he turn around and give me a hand? In the final analysis, when I quarreled with him outside the Yonghe Palace, it was the starling who took me out of the palace to relax and relieve my worries. , Watching from the sidelines. Anyway, my fourth brother and I still have a knot in our hearts that cannot be resolved. If we go out today, it will save us from being tied up in the future, which is a lot of trouble."

"My master really has a good plan." Wanyan gasped, and threw the handkerchief into the basin, "My master intends to rely on the love of eating, drinking and having fun with Babeile, so that he will help you out of the palace in the future." Mansion, to gain a foothold in the court battle? The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother have been friends with Babeile since childhood, and the king of Zhijun grew up in the same palace gate as Babeile. The master is the son of Empress Defei , is Sibeile's younger brother, do you think Babeile has no idea?"

"I didn't expect my starling to reciprocate." The fourteenth elder brother turned his head and glanced at Yan Shi, "It's better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. My brother is like this, let alone one floor away."

Wanyan was stunned for a moment, and stayed where she was.

The fourteenth elder brother took a deep breath, his eyes were far-reaching, "Eldest brother and second brother are dying, and Huang Ama's body is getting weaker and weaker. Since ancient times, how long can Huang Ama protect us? In Aixinjueluo's house, if you don't fight or grab, you can only be a mermaid. You have good arms and legs. You don't want to be as cowardly as fifth and seventh brothers, and you don't bother to be as cowardly as thirteen. Everyone can share Why do you want to be a good brother for a lifetime if you have a piece of soup?"

Wanyan's hands and feet were cold, and she held the soaked handkerchief in her hand, dripping water drops, "Master, since you have this ambition, you shouldn't get into trouble with the fourth brother. Anyway, the fourth brother is in court. I have been immersed in the hall for many years, even if I live in seclusion on weekdays, I can always help my master a little."

"Hmph, living in seclusion?" Elder Fourteen sneered, rubbing his forehead in his arm, "Others don't know about him, but I, as his own younger brother, don't know about him? Among the princes, Fourth Brother hides the deepest, but also the deepest. A must-have one!"

Into the night, Qianqing Palace

Lord Kangxi was covered with a blanket and lay on a soft couch. After the imperial doctor felt his pulse, he bowed his head and saluted, "Long Live Lord is full of qi and blood, and his spleen and stomach are not smooth. Recently, he must not get angry anymore. The most important thing is to take care of the dragon's body in everything."

Lord Kangxi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, "I understand, you should step back."

"Yes, my minister is resigning," the imperial doctor saluted, and followed the little eunuch out of the Qianqing palace.

Liang Jiugong entered the bedroom with the boiled soup and helped Lord Kangxi get up.

"What's the matter with Old Fourteen?" Master Kangxi picked up the medicine bowl and scooped it up.

"Don't worry, Lord Long Live." Liang Jiugong bent over, "It's just some skin trauma. Lord Fourteen is in good health, and he will be able to go to the ground in a few days."

Lord Kangxi nodded, frowned, and drank the soup, "Let the Tai Hospital pay attention, don't look at Fourteen being grounded, just fooling around. If they hurt their muscles and bones like Yinxiang, I can't spare them .”

"Yes, I understand." Liang Jiugong helped Lord Kangxi lie down again, and tucked the blanket, "After all, this is his own. Sibeile can't do anything cruel. It's just that the suffocation in the chest, I don't know when it will be relieved." untied."

Lord Kangxi smiled softly, and shook his head, "Old Fourteen's temper is about the same as Yinzhen's, and those two stubborn tempers together make things difficult for Concubine De."

The Long Live Lord showed a smile, and Liang Jiugong breathed a sigh of relief secretly, "What the emperor said is that the four beiles over there will go up to ask for the crown prince, and the fourteenth master here will dare to challenge the emperor's father to intercede for the eight beiles. With such a temperament, Long Live Lord can save a lot of worry."

"Hmph," Master Kangxi straightened his body and took a deep breath, "Then I will be pissed off by them, don't worry."

In the morning, without sleep all night.

In the Xipei courtyard, Shiyue's room was the first to make noise.Xu'er yawned and waited for Shiyue to wash up with a basin.

Shiyue sat in front of the mirror, looked at Xu'er and smiled, "Why are you so lethargic? I'll go to Rong Yue's place later, you can go to sleep for a while."

"Thank you, my lord," Xu'er shook her head and smiled silly, "My servant will be refreshed after breakfast. My lord takes care of Niu Hulu Gege's baby all day long, so how can I do without my servant?"

Shiyue bent her lips, turned her head and looked out the window, "Master Belle should get up at this time."

"Well, the lights in the front yard were turned on very early," Xu'er helped Shiyue straighten her hair, "Master Baylor goes to court every day, it's very hard."

Shiyue pursed her lips, and slightly traced her eyebrows, "Where did Lord Baylor rest last night?"

"In the East courtyard," Xu'er glanced at Shiyue secretly, "Recently, when Lord Baylor comes to the West Courtyard, he mostly visits Niu Hulu Gege, and he seldom goes to Fujin's place every year. On weekdays, isn't it To rest in the East Courtyard is to go to Fujin."

"It's normal," Shiyue wiped the bronze mirror with her hands, "Fu Jin finally cheered up, Lord Baylor should have been there for him."

"Yes," Xu'er pouted, "I heard from the servants in the front yard that Lord Baylor intends to have another son, and Niu Hulu Gege is a concubine after all. Even if he gave birth to a brother, compared to the past His son Honghui is also much worse."

"Don't talk nonsense," Shiyue glared at Xu'er, "They're all Lord Baylor's children, what's the difference? Even if Lord Baylor wants a son-in-law, it's just—" Shiyue paused, then said with a sigh of relief , "It saves you the trouble of choosing a son, and saves the children from hurting their feelings by fighting for the title."

"My lord is right," Xu'er nodded, and raised the corners of her mouth, "By the way, my lord may not know that Eunuch Su came back yesterday."

Shiyue was taken aback for a moment, and the Danko in her hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Xu'er hurriedly picked it up, patted her mouth secretly, "Grandpa Su just walked around the front yard, saw Mr. Zhang Qilin, and left after a short stay."

"Oh, that's it." Shi Yue stroked her temples, looked at the figure in the bronze mirror, and fell silent.

Babeile was detained for leniently handling the case of Ling Pu, and the [-]th elder brother was punished twenty times for interceding. When the Long Live Lord was still in a rage, Wen Da, a university scholar, brought the Minister of Criminal Affairs, and submitted the details of the trial of Zhang Mingde's case. .

Zhang Mingde was originally recommended to the King of Shuncheng by Shi Alu, the head of the King of Shuncheng County, and then recommended to the King of Zhijun by the King of Shuncheng County.Because of his nonsense, he said a lot that the crown prince is violent, if he meets me, he will be assassinated!And fabricate rumors, saying that I have 16 people with supernatural powers, which should cause two people to meet the king, instigate the king to listen, and hope to get more money.The king of Zhijun was furious and sent him to Shuntian Mansion.However, he bribed officials and was able to get away with it.Later, Mr. Puqi recommended Babeile to Babeile. When he saw the acquaintance, he once said that Babeile was full of spirit and tranquility, benevolent and friendly, with a long life and good fortune.

The Ministry of Punishment approved Zhang Mingde's confession in many ways, and the emperor said: "Zhang Mingde uttered wild words, the crime is heinous, and the sentence should be executed!"

Lord Kangxi did not order immediately, but stayed in the middle to wait.In the next few days, memorials to intercede for Babeile sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and it was too much to say.The sages of the Eight Kings seem to have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Every time Lord Kangxi reads the memorial, his expression is extremely cold.

This year's Gold Awarding Festival was particularly brief. Lord Kangxi only showed up at the court banquet, and then went back to his bedroom to rest.In the harem, the small banquet hosted by the imperial concubine Tong Jia also left in a hurry before the lights were lit.

The king of Zhijun was detained, and Concubine Hui fell ill.Babeile was abolished from her position and reprimanded several times by the Lord Long Live, Concubine Liang was in panic every day.Ninth elder brother Yinzhen confronted the majesty because of Babeile's pleading, Yifei also had to hide her arrogance, and had no time to care about other things.The fourteenth elder brother was punished twenty times, and the concubine De was even more devastated.

Different from the chaotic situation in central Beijing, Daliang Village in the outskirts of Beijing is harmonious, but Eunuch Su feels guilty and sighs from time to time.

"Oh, master, don't worry," Xiaoyingzi handed a meat bun to Su Wei, "the future will be long, Master Fourteen, we can figure out a way when we get back to the mansion. You are so worried now that you can't exert your energy." Isn't it?"

Su Wei glanced at Xiaoyingzi, bit the meat bun bitterly, "I wish I could go back one day sooner, just one day sooner! I told Fourteenth Lord in advance, and Fourteenth Master would never be in front of his master." Plead with Babeile in person."

"Who can guess this kind of thing," Xiaoyingzi flattened her lips, "The Fourteenth Lord has learned a lesson, and the punishment is twenty. Anyone who speaks in the future will have to think about it before speaking."

Su Wei sighed again, momentarily frustrated.

Ku Kui entered from outside the courtyard, took out a letter and handed it to Su Wei, "Grandpa Su, thank you for the letter from the boss. They have already arrived in Zhangjiakou, and they have also contacted several companies that do business in Mongolia. I want you to have an idea. See Which one is the most suitable to cooperate with?"

"Let me take a look," Su Wei hurriedly opened the envelope, frowning and reading it again.

Xiaoyingzi tilted his head, took a look, pointed to a Tianyide firm and said, "Boss Xie said that this firm has the deepest foundation in Shanxi. If we want to cooperate, we must cooperate with the best one."

Su Wei shook his head, "A deep foundation doesn't mean it's good. Our master is at a critical stage, and it's not appropriate to have too much involvement with the Mongolian nobles. This firm's foundation is too deep, and the forces behind it must be intertwined. If something happens Trouble will outweigh the gain.”

Xiaoyingzi blinked, "Which one is Master looking for? Do we have to go to Zhangjiakou?"

"I can't go now," Su Wei pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes slightly, "This Jishengtang was a merchant who went to Galdan with the Lord Long Live, and now he has settled in Mongolia. It looks good to have a place here.”

Xiaoyingzi looked at it twice, curled his lips in disgust, and said, "Boss Xie said, this is a business opened by three porters, and there is only one small stall in Zhangjiakou, isn't it a bit shabby?"

"I'm not afraid of being poor," Su Wei curled his lips and stuffed the letter back into the envelope, "If you want money, we have it. Three porters who carry burdens can build a business in just a few years. To get a piece of the pie, one must have some brains. This kind of employing person must be someone who is a little smart and has no way to rely on, so as to save trouble in the future."

Ku Kui nodded, and interjected, "Then, let's send someone to tell Boss Xie to invite the shopkeeper of Jishengtang to Beijing?"

"Well," Su Wei pouted and nodded, "Just say that there is a big business waiting for him in Beijing, and whether he dares to come or not depends on the courage of these three people."

The author has something to say:

Jishengtang was renamed Dashengkui in the second year of Yongzheng. It was the largest trade house with Mongolia opened by Shanxi people in the Qing Dynasty. At its peak, it had 7000 employees and nearly [-] camels in the caravan. Most, Khobdo, Uliasutai, Kulun (now Ulaanbaatar), Kyakta, Inner Mongolia League Banners, Xinjiang Urumqi, Kuqa, Ili, Russian Siberia, Moscow and other places have almost monopolized Mongolia In the pastoral market, Mongolian princes, nobles and herdsmen are mostly its debtors.

Dashengkui was opened until 1947 before it was completely bulked.At that time, there was a saying that "there is Hu Xueyan in the south and Dashengkui in the north".

So, the golden finger I gave to Xiao Suzi is big enough!
