After Brother Jiu said this, there was no movement.
It was Shu Shu's turn to fall asleep.
The prince is a direct descendant, and he was registered as the prince early.
All the princes and elder brothers knew the difference between the prince and other brothers long before they were sensible.
There is a difference between monarch and minister.
As a kid, you don't think about the difference.
For the same princes, due to different biological mothers, one is the future emperor and the others are reduced to clan members.
Now that it is getting bigger, the gap will become bigger and bigger.
There is not only one person who thinks like Brother Jiu.
Whether it was Kangxi or the princelings represented by Suo'etu, the more they defended the prince's power and status and suppressed and defended other princes, the more they would pressure these princes to rebound.
Why?
Is he a direct descendant?
But Emperor Taizong and Emperor Shizu were not direct descendants!
In Taizong's generation, Prince Guanglue Baylor and Prince Lilie were both appointed crown princes successively. What happened?
They were all ruined one after another!
One was sentenced to death.
One was also deposed with the reputation of "tampering with the harem".
By the time of Emperor Shizu, Prince Suwu was the eldest son of the emperor, and he was also the eldest son who followed Emperor Taizong to conquer the world.
In the early years when Emperor Taizong had few heirs, he was the only prince with the right to inherit.
However, because there was no support from the harem, after Taizong's death, he, a banner prince, could not compete with the young Emperor Shizu.
No matter how much Kangxi valued his legitimate sons, in fact he was also influenced by the Eight Banners' "merger of legitimate sons" trend, and treated the elder brothers born of his concubines no less than those of his legitimate princes.
According to the rules of Taizu Taizong Dynasty, these people all have the right to inherit.
The seventh prince is an exception.
This son is more like a guest...
Kangxi disliked him at first, but later because he was excellent, he was unwilling to give it away for nothing.
It seems that Detsutsu's matter has been settled.
But Prince Chun Fujin couldn't choose an heir.
It's like a best relative who wants his younger brother's family property but is unwilling to change his son's name to someone else's father and mother...
Shu Shu thought wildly and closed her eyes at dawn.
the next day.
When Shu Shu woke up, her eyes were dark.
Brother Jiu had already regained his composure. Looking at Shu Shu's appearance, he said, "Have you rested yet? You were exhausted yesterday. Do you want to sleep a little longer..."
Shu Shu glared at him, yawned and shook her head: "I made an appointment with Sister-in-law Seven to visit Brother Five..."
Brother Jiu said: "Then I'll catch up on my sleep when I get back... I don't have anything to do today..."
Shu Shu nodded.
Brother Ninth took a bit of schadenfreude and said: "The third child has asked Khan Ama to remember this time... that is to save him face, otherwise he would not be able to directly seize the two left collars..."
Shu Shu remembered what the third elder brother had said before and asked curiously: "How is Concubine Rong's brother doing?"
A housekeeper in Hirazon would commit suicide if something like this happened to him. How could a kitchen manager survive?
That one was among the stewards who was arrested while walking in the dining room yesterday.
"After the torture, it really has nothing to do with him... He was just 'instructed' by others to make honey twists, honey fruits and so on. It was originally to please the old thirteenth... His girl was selected in Zhang Bin's palace this year. As a errand, I was thinking about the future... After listening to what others said, I felt that I should give it to all the elder brothers, so as not to have to be criticized by the older brothers, I gave it to the third child, and also told me to share it with the boss. of……"
The ninth elder brother said with contempt: "Khan Amma can't tolerate this thought... One by one, they stared at the prince's elder brother's backyard... He was beaten forty times and dismissed, and several brothers and cousins were cleared. retreat……"
Shu Shu was silent.
The imperial dining room is one of the most lucrative departments in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
She lived in the palace for two months and heard a lot of gossip from the imperial kitchen.
There are two major families from the House of Internal Affairs, one is Concubine De's natal family, and the other is Concubine Rong's natal family.
In terms of seniority, De Fei's side is longer.
As early as before the Eight Banners entered the customs and was still in the Shengjing Palace, De Fei's grandfather had been the steward of the imperial kitchen.
However, since the early years of Kangxi, Concubine Rong was selected into the palace, and later became the emperor's first concubine. She gave birth to children one after another, and Concubine Rong's mother's family got up, and she also entered the imperial dining room, and controlled the fat vacancy.
It was not until the virtuous concubines in the harem came from behind to register concubines separately, and were ranked ahead of the Rong concubines when they were granted the title of concubine, that the power of the imperial dining room reached a delicate balance.
After Shu Shu knew this, he made up the "Yonghe Strategy" in his mind.
Now it’s the end.
I'm afraid that Concubine De will not thank Brother Ninth.
That's a smart guy.
It can be seen that the emperor was supporting Concubine Rong's family before.
It can also be seen that the emperor later suppressed Concubine Rong's natal family.
This balance is the balance that the emperor wants.
Yesterday's events were still coming to an end, so Brother Jiu left in a hurry after breakfast.
Shu Shu made an appointment with Qi Fujin yesterday with Chen Zheng. Seeing that it was almost time, she brought out walnuts.
She went to meet Qi Fujin first.
Their yards were next to each other, and Qi Fujin happened to come out.
No one is empty-handed when visiting a doctor, but now that we are out there, there are only so many things we can give as gifts.
But this is the eldest brother-in-law, and the two of them are still on good terms with Wufujin, so they naturally won't give away things they don't need.
Qi Fujin whispered in a low voice: "I searched around, and this box of donkey-hide gelatin is still close to the edge... This one is for beauty, and it can barely be regarded as symptomatic..."
"Treading on the Stars"
Shu Shu pointed to the brocade box in Walnut's arms and said: "They are all the same. I looked through them yesterday and found a jar of panax notoginseng powder. It is also used by women to replenish blood, but it is also good for trauma..."
While talking, both of them laughed.
Qi Fujin covered his mouth and said: "Fifth Master can eat it if he likes it. If he doesn't like it, let Fifth Sister-in-law make up for it. Don't waste anything..."
Shu Shu smiled and nodded.
She thought so too.
However, thinking about the fifth elder brother's injury and the need to apply medicine, she took precautions first to prevent Qi Fujin from being frightened, so she said: "It looks scary, Qi Sister-in-law, please bear with me..."
Qi Fujin hummed: "Who are you looking down on? I am the ignorant one..."
Shu Shu apologized with a smile.
She was just doing it just in case.
Speaking of which, Qi Fujin is indeed quite reliable on weekdays. Occasionally, he gets a little squeamish in front of people close to him.
While they were talking, the group of people arrived at the yard where the fifth elder brother and his wife were staying temporarily.
Wufujin had been waiting for a long time, and when he heard the movement in the yard, he came out to greet them.
Since we are visiting a patient, we must first see the real person.
Wufu Jinbian led the two people to Dongcijian.
The fifth elder brother is already dressed and waiting.
His face was still swollen, and there was no bandage on it. The stitched wounds still looked horrifying, and he had one eye narrowed.
Seeing the two younger siblings arriving, the fifth elder brother stood up politely with a smile on his face: "The two younger siblings are here..."
Because my face was so swollen, my speech was a little unclear.
Shu Shu followed Qifu and became blessed.
Qi Fujin said: "Fifth brother, please sit down and don't speak... We are not foreigners. We, our sisters-in-law, can talk among ourselves..."
The fifth elder brother nodded and looked at Shu Shu: "Lao Jiu..."
"The emperor is on duty, and he said he would come over to see Fifth Brother before noon..."
Shu Shu said.
The fifth elder brother nodded.
Shu Shu and Qi Fujin followed Wu Fujin out and went to the West Room to talk.
Qi Fujin's face showed worry, and he stretched out his hand to measure: "Hurry up and it will grow, it will not be good if you leave scars..."
Wu Fujin sighed and said: "I have already asked the imperial doctor. The wound is so deep that it is impossible not to leave a scar... The rest depends on how the recovery goes..." After saying this, he looked at Shu Shu: "Thanks to my brothers and sisters, Yesterday, the imperial doctor came over to change the dressing and said that it looked like he was growing well. The rare thing is that the wound did not fester, so it should be better than expected..."
Shu Shu hurriedly said: "I also know a little bit about it..."
Qi Fujin was deep in thought and seemed to have thought of something. He stretched out his left hand and said to the two of them: "Look here..."
She pointed to the spot on the first knuckle of her index finger.
Shu Shu and Wu Fujin looked carefully. They were white and tender, but there was nothing visible.
Qi Fujin had a proud look on his face, pointing to a shallow and almost invisible white line and said: "There used to be a scar here, left when I was ten years old... I was greedy at that time, and it was time to grow my hair. When I was 20 years old, my mother-in-law forced me to sew and thread. I was so annoyed that I carried the adults on my back to the kitchen, preparing myself to make delicious food... I don’t know how to use a knife, and the cucumbers were round and round, and they could be cut with just one stroke. I cut my finger...it was bloody and scary...when the wound healed, there was only a half-inch scar..."
She beat little Amy, how could she bear this?
Nao's family searched around for ways to remove scars and tried them one by one.
I don’t know if it has healed or if it has been used for a long time. Anyway, this scar is just a shallow mark.
Wu Fujin's face showed surprise.
"I tried not only ten kinds, but eight kinds... I will sort them out later. When the time comes, Sister-in-law Five, you can ask the hospital to see if there are any that can be used..."
When Qi Fujin said this, he added: "There are many empresses in the palace, and the Taiyuan Hospital should have the most beauty and beauty recipes. If it is not convenient for the fifth sister-in-law to tell me, let the empress go..."
Wu Fujin agreed and thanked Qifu Jin.
Shu Shu also remembered some common sense about scars left by trauma in later generations, and said: "Try not to eat dark-colored foods, such as sauces, soy sauce, etc... and some hairy foods, such as beef, mutton, fish and shrimp... peppers, soju, etc. If you grow spicy food, don't even touch it..."
Wufujin listened carefully and took notes carefully.
Qi Fujin said: "Fifth sister-in-law only thinks about the good things. It's so suspenseful. It's only half an inch away from your eyes... This is God's opening of eyes..."
Wufujin nodded gently: "I know, it's also the Buddha's blessing... I plan to fast for a month..."
Shu Shu and Qi Fujin looked at each other, unable to say anything.
It's just that the mood is a little subtle.
When he got out of here, Qi Fujin whispered: "Fifth sister-in-law may be scared... She didn't believe these people before..."
Shu Shu nodded: "It's okay, it's better to have someone to rely on than to worry about nothing all day long..."
Qi Fujin shuddered: "If you ask me to fast for a month and not let me eat meat, it will kill me... I am the fifth sister-in-law. She has always had a simple diet, so she should not be embarrassed..."
The two of them also dispersed and went back their separate ways.
Shu Shu was also tired and wanted to catch up on some sleep.
Walnut reported: "Fu Jin, your Majesty sent Miss Xianglan over..."
Shu Shu looked over: "Sending food?"
This was the tacit understanding between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Every time we exchange news or something, we always use the excuse of sending food.
Walnut shook his head and said, "No, the clothes they gave me look like..." As he said that, he took a booklet and handed it to Shu Shu.
Shu Shu took it and looked at it. It looked like a winter sweater.
"Aunt Xianglan said that the empress was worried about the lack of winter clothes for several Fujins, so she wanted to make clothes for several of them, four sets for each person... She asked Fujin to ask Wu Fujin and Qi Fujin to choose them each... Don't worry, they will be chosen before tonight. That’s fine, Aunt Xianglan will come to pick it up when the time comes..."
Walnut said.
Shu Shu felt her head was big.
There is really no way to avoid it.
This is allowing yourself to speak back.
What to do?
Shu Shu didn't want to use this cleverness.
It is better to wait for Brother Jiu to come back and let Brother Jiu, his own son, make the decision.
She handed the brochure to Walnut: "Why don't you go and ask the two Fujins to choose..."
The walnuts are gone.
Shu Shu thought about Concubine Yi's behavior.
He seems to be cheerful and cheerful, but in fact he acts very cautiously.
The news from the Ministry of Internal Affairs spread like wildfire, and Shu Shu believed that the Queen Mother was hiding it.
Because Ningshou Palace is under the emperor's control, it is easy to hide the news.
To say that Concubine Yi was concealed is nonsense.
But her sons kept it secret, and Kangxi didn't tell her. She could endure it until the third day before sending someone out, and it was still this kind of invisible prying.
After a while, Walnut came back, followed by Wufujin.
Wu Fujin looked worried, holding Shu Shu's hand and said: "What should I do over there, the empress? Are you hiding it like this? Tomorrow the Holy Spirit will leave camp, and our master will stay here to recuperate, what kind of excuses can we use..."
This was because I was a little scared after hearing the news that Xianglan was coming again in the evening.
The sons concealed it, out of filial piety and unwilling to offend.
No mother-in-law would be happy if the daughters-in-law kept it secret.
Shu Shu couldn't make up her mind for her, so she only said her own plan: "Anyway, it's right to listen to my father. He is the mother's son... How should I reply? Should I say it directly, or should I continue before the wound heals?" It doesn’t matter if you hide it, I will listen to Master Jiu..."
Wu Fujin bit his lip and nodded: "That's how it should be..."
When you get married, obey your husband, that is within the rules.
Wufujin went back.
Shu Shu was not so relaxed.
Could a person as transparent as Concubine Yifei see that this is a dirty trick played by daughters-in-law?
But what else can be done?
Digging out your heart and lungs, is it like a biological mother and daughter?
What a joke.
Shu Shu felt that she was stimulated by the eldest brother's incident, and set her sights on "Kowloon to seize the legitimate son."
As for the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it is better to be polite.
If you are too close, you will be picky and demanding.
This is the case with people's hearts.
After sleeping for less than an hour last night, her mind was already drowsy, so she went to sleep.
It wasn't until noon that she woke up from hunger.
There was movement in the yard. The ninth elder brother was back, followed by the tenth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother.
The ninth elder brother was still tense, while the tenth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother were both beaming.
Shu Shu came out and looked at the appearance of the three of them. She felt relieved and said with a smile, "Why are all of them so happy? Did the emperor reward them?"
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows, raised his chin, and said, "Better guess..."
This is a paddock. If it is more honorable than a reward of silver, let them hold the flag and march around?
But the incident between the eldest brother and the fifth brother happened...
As for anything else, Shu Shu really couldn't think of it at the moment.
The tenth elder brother couldn't help it anymore and said with a smile: "Ninth sister-in-law, Khan Ama asked ninth brother to act in the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."
