Qingxi Bookstore.
Kangxi was sitting on the kang, and on the table were the records of the governor of the river.
Several places in the Huanghuai region are seriously flooded and require thorough treatment.
However, such projects cost a lot of money, and the court had limited money.
Construction cannot be fully started and can only be repaired in different sections of the river.
Regarding the location selection of several projects, the river governor and the local governor had different opinions, and a holy ruling was needed.
There are also natural disasters in Zhejiang in the past few years, which had a huge impact and destroyed a lot of farmland. People's livelihood is unstable and needs to be appeased.
These two things are the primary purpose of the southern tour.
It is necessary to prevent officials along the way from carrying out scientific research in the name of the Holy Emperor’s southern tour.
Otherwise, it will cause public resentment, which is counterproductive.
At that time, the prince will supervise the country...
Kangxi hesitated a little when he thought of this.
Will the boss be kept in Beijing or not?
Pros and cons.
He didn't realize that he was already a little wary of the prince, and that's why he had a relapse a few days after he personally convinced his eldest brother to follow him.
He was in a depressed mood and felt that there seemed to be a gap between him and the prince.
The prince didn't know the inside story and didn't know about Suo'etu's ambition. Did he already blame him for being cruel?
At this moment, Liang Jiugong came in and said, "Your Majesty, Brother Jiu is here, see you outside!"
Kangxi couldn't help frowning after hearing this.
Thinking of the pulse case in Taiyuan Hospital last night, he became more impatient and said: "He is spoiled and unruly, and he still has the nerve to come to the front of the court. Let him get out!"
Liang Jiugong bowed and went out, looked at Brother Si with a square face, and reminded loudly: "His Majesty asked you to get out of here, it seems that you feel uncomfortable!"
Brother Si stopped smiling, thinking that he might have come at the right time.
I was holding the food box in my hand, and naturally I could do somersaults like "dressing up to entertain a kiss", so I quietly left the house.
Kangxi saw me acting like a thief and scolded me: "What the hell are you doing?"
The fourth elder brother's eyes circled under Kangxi's face and said respectfully: "My son, it feels uncomfortable to see you. I am afraid that you will suffer the same disaster as Chiyu..."
Kangxi glared at me and said, "I can see that Lian is feeling uncomfortable. Now, can you tell me why Lian is in such a square shape?"
The four flags lost their courage, which was the biggest headache for me in those years. It turned out that no one outside my family was as good as Ding.
Fourth Brother is not confused, so where can we guess?
I wanted to touch my chin, but I didn't have the food box in my hand. I glanced up and said, "My son is smart, what if Ranhan Gege also guesses?"
Kangxi followed my gaze and said, "Guess what's outside?"
Brother Si shook his head and said with a smile: "No matter how powerful Han Gege is, he can still guess things through wooden boxes. Is this embarrassing someone?"
As I said that, I opened the food box and took out a ruler and plate.
There are eight glutinous rice balls in yellow and white colors below.
The eight pieces were round and looked the same: small and large, as if they had been measured with a ruler.
The other eight are in the same shape as the small and large ones, and they look like crooked melons and cracked jujubes.
"Seeing that the festival was about to take place, my son's food and drink expenses were all given by Khan Gege, and he repaid Zeng Qi, so he and his son Shu Shu personally made those glutinous rice balls as a tribute to Khan Xiangna..."
Fourth Brother said.
That's what I thought, and I said it sincerely.
Especially when you have just received such a small amount of property, the gratitude in your heart is real.
If you are an ordinary family, you should raise children to protect yourself from old age.
But Khan Gege was the young Qing emperor and needed someone to support him in his old age. It would be a shame to raise such a small number of children and grandchildren.
The fourth elder brother was vaguely unsympathetic.
In fact, it was said by Si Age that Kangxi also guessed it when he saw the ugly glutinous rice balls.
That is the filial piety of a son or a daughter-in-law.
I had a look of disgust on my face, but it was actually quite helpful.
When I saw that the food box had only two layers, I pointed and asked, "What's on top?"
The fourth elder brother also brought out eight glutinous rice balls.
There are also eight good-looking ones and eight ugly ones.
"That's a tribute to E Niang by the way, so E Niang can have a taste..."
The fourth elder brother answered honestly.
Kangxi looked at the number of two and felt satisfied.
Then I still felt heartbroken.
That's Si Age, Si Fujin!
But seeing the admiration on Brother Si's face, I swallowed the scolding of "It's about doing business properly", nodded and said: Okay, the skin is on..."
Speaking of which, I thought that Brother Si's walking just now was not a bit awkward, and then thought about last night's incident, the disgust in my heart was still there, but there was less heartache.
Stupid is stupid, but filial.
I had no choice but to send it to Fourth Elder Brother himself, and told Wei Zhu, who was serving as a penman next to me, to say, "He will run back to Fangshu for Fourth Elder Brother and tell Concubine Yi that this is the filial piety of Fourth Elder Brother and Si Shushu!"
Wei Zhu responded, packed the food box and carried it away.
Seeing that Kangxi's mood improved, Fourth Brother breathed a sigh of relief and grinned: "Guess, Han Gege, what are those stuffings?"
Kangxi raised his eyebrows, glanced carelessly for a few times, and said, "What kind of stuffing?"
The fourth elder brother sold his case and said: "It's fine now that you've said it..." After saying that, he gave Liang Jiugong a hint: "Shui Da, just in time for dinner, let's ask the kitchen to cook it. That's outside the palace." The common Yuanxiao rolls are easy to cook because they are wrapped in wet dough and cooked well.
Liang Jiugong did not move. He waited until Kangxi nodded, then bowed and took the soup dumpling plate.
The fourth elder brother felt that he was satisfied if he received any praise, so he had to leave because he was not willing to give up.
Kangxi was pleased with my relaxed and restrained look.
How busy are the other princes?
I hate having to live and eat in the yamen.
It's good for that bastard. I'm afraid he forgot that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is still preparing for the southern tour.
"If you have free time, go to the Yamen to run errands!"
Kangxi frowned.
The fourth elder brother Piya said: "It's a festival. After those eight or seven days, my son will go to the Yamen!"
At that time, Khan Gege should also return to the palace in front of the Queen Mother, so as to save me the trouble.
Kangxi misunderstood and thought it was because of my comfort. He looked a little anxious and said, "Well, it will only take a few days. Anyway, you can be lazy if you are diligent!"
Brother Si bowed in agreement and left Qingxi Bookstore with a bit of disappointment.
Did you get a word of praise?
It's a blessing but it's also a loss. The story of the sheep tripe has turned upside down.
Yesterday's case about the Imperial Physician's Pulse Case probably won't be over again.
The fourth elder brother explained to himself, and left Changchun Garden happily and angrily.
In Huichun Villa, I looked at the glutinous rice balls sent by Wei Zhu.
It was said that Si Age and Si Shu Shu made it by themselves.
There was a smile on Concubine Yi's face, and the corners of Xianglan's mouth, who was standing next to her, were also raised.
The master and the servant looked at each other, exchanged a look, and their eyes fell on these eight small and large glutinous rice balls.
Wei Zhu felt that the look was strange. It seemed to be critical, but more like it was from the side.
But I also guessed it was because of the reason, so I accepted a purse from Xianglan and went back to resume my life.
When I left, Concubine Yi burst into laughter.
Xianglan also smiled and said: "I really thought of it..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Yi Fei smiled heartily: "I really follow you everywhere. You are a good eater, but you are clumsy..."
Kangxi guessed wrongly about the real makers of Yuan Tangyuan and Chou Tangyuan, but Concubine Yi would guess wrong.
The fourth elder brother was naughty when he was growing up. He loved to play in the mud and was very round.
There were only two people involved, so it was obvious who made the remaining ugly glutinous rice balls.
The wine shop is the Palace of Virtue.
In front of the Queen Mother, there was also a plate of raw Yuanxiao.
Amma took the credit, pointed to these beautiful Lantern Festivals and said: "Those were made by the fourth master, and his hands are very skillful, but the grandson's daughter-in-law is stupid, and they are made into arcs..."
Taiqian took your hand, looked through it carelessly, and said, "Don't move forward, ask the girls to do it, your hands are rough."
Amma smiled and said: "There are a few in total, just yours and Hangege's. You are the one who makes the glutinous rice dumplings here. The others don't even move their mouths. They are just for the Fujins to have a fresh taste."
Si Fujin was standing by and said, "Last time, my fourth sister-in-law sent someone to call you. You also personally wrapped some filial piety to the imperial grandmother."
Amma nodded with a smile and said, "Remember this, sister, don't be lazy when you celebrate another festival!"
When it's almost time to eat, Taiqian wants to leave some food.
Amma said with a shy look on her face: "The royal grandmother doesn't have any younger sister to accompany her, but your grandson is at home alone."
The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hands: "Go, go, while you are out of the capital, please stay with me less, so that I don't have to pity my brother."
Amma was blessed and brought big chun and walnuts up.
Si Xiangna sent it out personally.
Amma reminded: "The sticky rice is easy to digest, just let the royal grandmother taste it..."
Si Fujin nodded in agreement, watched Xiang Na's master and servant leave, and then turned back to the wine shop, Weide Palace.
The Queen Mother was telling Bai Junwei: "According to Si Xiangna's instructions, these marked ones are cooked separately, and the soup is made of seaweed and shrimp skin. If you want salty ones, don't get confused!"
Bai Dudu responded and went up to cook glutinous rice balls with a plate.
Seeing Si Fujin come back, the Queen Mother called you to the Kang and said, "Did you learn anything today?"
Sifujin thought for a moment and said, "What the imperial grandmother said was 'wash your hands and make soup'?"
Taiqian shook his head and said: "Think about it again..."
Si Fujin frowned, thinking about coming out.
Tai Qian said: "It's the same thing as a gift, why are they first class and yours first?"
Si Fujin blinked and said: "Of course there is no order of seniority and no distinction between seniority and inferiority..."
The Queen Mother nodded and said: "That's not the truth. A new daughter-in-law behaves with respect for her elders and is friendly to uncles and aunts. No one can make mistakes, but she must also remember her identity..."
"It's not a bookstore, but it's also food that we don't cook with our own hands. That's not appropriate..."
Although the reserve position has been decided, farewell to the monarch and his ministers.
But living outside the garden is under the court, not brothers and in-laws.
If the Fourth Prince and his wife treated the Crown Prince and Crown Princess like they were filial to their parents and elders, it would be too flattering and would only make people think they were fawning and lost their sense of proportion.
"He has a golden branch and a jade leaf, and he is the same as his fourth sister-in-law, but the principles of human relationships are the same. In the past, even if you were willing to treat your husband's family well for the sake of your husband-in-law, you would lose your status as a princess. If you get someone else in front of you, The closeness will be taken seriously quickly
Waiting for a long time, retreating and losing ground..."
Tai Qian was explaining the truth seriously.
At first I thought Sifujin had a good temper, but now you are worried.
If you treat people too kindly, it will be fine if you meet someone who is sensible, but if you meet someone who is disrespectful, you may suffer a loss.
I can stand close to my side again and watch...
