After Brother Jiu finished speaking, he noticed that the atmosphere was condensed.
The house seemed a lot quieter.
He was still a little confused. When he looked up and saw Kang Xi's dark face, he realized what he had said and hurriedly slapped his mouth.
The third elder brother knelt on the ground and couldn't listen anymore.
He really knows how to speak, and there are many praises here and there.
He raised his eyes to look at Brother Jiu and said, "When encountering such a thing, others would have panicked, but Mr. Qi is really calm!"
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "That's not what it should be. Khan Ama has such a sharp eye that he can fool a few dandies? If he is so easy to frame ministers, how many of them can still stand in this court?"
"Third Brother:"
Is Lao Jiu able to speak, or is he unable to speak?
Is this his speaking technique?
It seems like he can't speak, but he can still praise people in a roundabout way.
The third elder brother stole a glance at Kangxi. Sure enough, the emperor's father felt comfortable after being photographed, and his expression softened a lot.
Kangxi looked at the tenth elder brother again and said: "Let's report the news now. Don't forget your identity. Since you have received an errand from the clan mansion, you must distinguish between public and private affairs in the future, rather than relying on distance to deal with clan affairs! "
Brother Ten lowered his hands, with a look of shame on his face, and said honestly: "It's my son's fault. I won't be like this anymore."
Prince Jian was standing by, seeing this situation, and nodded secretly in his heart.
This is the normal response of the emperor.
The third elder brother and the ninth elder brother do not count.
It's just that they are also selfish and favor the Yue family, but now one is kneeling and the other is standing.
It seems that I will have to re-evaluate Brother Nine in the future.
When the ninth elder brother saw the tenth elder brother being scolded, he hurriedly said: "Khan Ama, it's none of Lao Shi's business. It was my son who told Lao Shi when he came out in the morning to keep an eye on these things and tell his son if there is any news. He just went over and said, who calls the son the elder brother? He is the younger brother, but he has to listen to the son? It is all the son's fault. From now on, the son will not ask these questions. "
Kangxi glanced at him.
This kind of loyalty is barely acceptable.
But it also depends on who is right.
He snorted coldly: "You are worrying so much. Your father-in-law won't let you interfere in Dong E's family affairs. Why don't you stop?"
Brother Ninth said frankly: "Who are you to say that the brothers-in-law over there are all compatriots of my son Fujin? If I don't have a serious future in the future, won't my son have to worry about it?"
Kangxi looked at Brother Ninth with a confused expression and said, "Why don't I know that you are so capable and can still worry about others?"
You haven't even started working as an errand in the previous dynasty, so you're thinking of employing people based on nepotism?
Brother Jiu said: "My son is a brother-in-law. Just like Khan Ama, haven't you been worrying about the uncles from several Cheng'en palaces in recent years?"
Hee hee, I just have more to worry about.
There are several mothers-in-law!
Too many brothers-in-law!
Kangxi felt that Brother Jiu's expression was a bit strange, but he could not imagine the number of times he was slandering his "uncle".
He said: "Don't act so impetuously in the future. Take care of yourself first and don't let others worry about you. That's filial piety!"
The ninth elder brother glanced at the third elder brother, but he did not speak harshly. He followed the example of the tenth elder brother and honestly admitted his mistake.
He felt that if he spoke back, the emperor's father would be trembling.
In that case, it would be easier for Lao San, so it would be better to scold Lao San.
Seeing that he was obedient, Kangxi turned his attention back to the third elder brother and said, "The matter has come to this. How do you plan to solve this matter?"
The third elder brother's mouth was bitter and he said: "Khan Ama, my son is really kind, but it can't all be attributed to him. Brothers Fuhan and Fuhai are unfilial, and there is something wrong with extending their lives. They have deceived the news about their father-in-law. Maybe it is My father-in-law has also reached his end."
Kangxi lowered his eyes.
The dead are great.
Whether it was intentional or unintentional, Peng Chun did die after listening to the third brother's words.
He doesn't think about his own faults and shuns responsibility.
"Peng Chun is conducting funerals as usual, so you will be responsible for this!"
Kangxi made a decision.
"Khan Ama..."
The third elder brother raised his head and pleaded, "Today's coincidence has caused bad consequences. I'm afraid the family over there won't hesitate to see my son. Or should my son copy scriptures and pray for his father-in-law at home?"
Although no one took action due to his status as the prince and elder brother, their faces were also very ugly.
Peng Chun's identity meant that if he was attending a funeral, even if the weather was hot, he would still have to stop by "three or five" or "five or seven".
Does he want to stay with Dong E's house for a month?
So embarrassing.
Kangxi looked at the third elder brother without nodding or shaking his head.
The third elder brother seemed to be encouraged. When he saw the ninth elder brother next to him, his eyes lit up and said: "It just so happens that the ninth elder brother is idle and he is also an in-law of the Dong E family. How about asking the ninth elder brother to help with the funeral?" Favor for the Dong E family?"
"ha?"
Brother Jiu couldn't help it anymore and sneered: "Third brother, what do you think? It's your father-in-law who died, not your brother's father-in-law. Is it my brother's turn to come forward?! You are really unkind, you know that The surviving family members around you won’t look down upon you well, you’ll be done with it if you hide, why are you pushing your brother to jack up the tank?”
Besides, the relationship between the two houses of Dong E's family is now very delicate.
A lawsuit lies in the middle, and outsiders are still waiting to see the excitement.
I am the son-in-law of the Dutong Mansion, but instead of looking after my father-in-law, I went to the Duke's Mansion to show my courtesy. What do others think?
I'm afraid that if Khan Ama is really tired of his father-in-law, someone will add insult to injury.
The third elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother and said: "Ninth brother, the overall situation is the most important thing. My father-in-law is an old commander of the Eight Banners. He also made many military exploits in his early years. Now that he has passed away so suddenly, there are many regrets. The royal family also needs to come forward to appease him."
Seeing his righteousness, Brother Jiu rolled his eyes and said, "Don't you understand the truth? Why are you still mumbling? Just do whatever Ama Khan tells you to do. I'll give you a slap in the face over there." After a few words, I got angry and the matter was over. To put it bluntly, this was half a 'revenge for killing my father'. I don't want others to be annoyed. You can't hide from it!"
The third elder brother blushed and defended: "I'm either hiding or feeling uncomfortable. My affairs are too busy and complicated. I'm afraid I've neglected the errands assigned by Khan Amma."
Brother Jiu curled his lips and said: "That's not just right. It's more sincere and sad. It's not 'a son-in-law and half a son' as the old saying goes. You can hold Peng Chun's sons and cry together. It will be fine after this period."
"Third Brother:"
I don’t really want to be half-child.
He looked at Kangxi, feeling worried.
Kangxi did not look at the third elder brother, but glanced at the ninth elder brother.
This person is worldly and has some small improvements.
The third elder brother represents not only himself.
Asking the third elder brother to come forward to attend Peng Chun's funeral was also the royal family's explanation to Dong E's family.
Kangxi glanced at the third elder brother lightly and said: "Accept the order!"
The third elder brother's expression froze, then he bowed his head and said: "I obey your order!"
When he came out of the Qianqing Palace and arrived at the square, the third elder brother stopped, turned around and looked at the ninth elder brother, gritted his teeth and said: "Lao Jiu, are you proud this time?"
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows, stretched out his fingers and gestured, and said: "Just let it go! Who told you, Third Brother, to drag my younger brother into the water? If it doesn't go down, I don't want my younger brother to be gloating about it. ?”
Brother San remembered what he had said to San Fujin before, Lao Jiu was really his nemesis.
If I hadn't heard that he returned to Dutong Mansion yesterday, would I have lost my sense like this today?
The third elder brother glared at the ninth elder brother and said: "Don't be complacent. Who knows what Khan Amma is thinking. The red flag at the front is monolithic. You should think that Khan Amma doesn't want to move. Don't think that your father-in-law's title is secure." !”
Brother Jiu disapproved and said: "So what? I didn't have a title at first, and my father-in-law was the Commander-in-Chief of the Eight Banners. Now that I have the title, I am also the Commander-in-Chief of the Eight Banners. There is no difference. It's just that the younger generation has a better future. Of course it’s better if they don’t have to earn it themselves!”
Third Brother didn’t believe it and said, “Then you still want Lao Shi to stare at you, so just be tough!”
Brother Jiu was stunned and remembered the brand.
He did not continue arguing with the third elder brother, but said to the tenth elder brother next to him: "You go ahead first, I have to meet Khan Ama."
After saying that, without waiting for the tenth prince's answer, he turned around and went to Qianqing Palace.
The third elder brother looked at the back of the ninth elder brother and asked curiously: "What happened to the ninth elder brother?"
The tenth elder brother roughly guessed the reason, but he had no intention of telling it widely. He only said: "Who knows, maybe he was frightened after hearing the third brother's words, and wanted to ask Khan Ama."
The third elder brother couldn't stand anymore and said hurriedly: "I didn't say anything. I have to go to the Ministry of Rites to find the Minister of Rites, so I won't delay..."
As he said that, he walked quickly like a dog being chased.
He already regretted it in his heart.
Lao Jiu won't file a complaint, right?
I just mentioned "Who knows what Khan Amma thinks", which seemed a little inappropriate.
*
Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.
Kangxi was puzzled when he saw the ninth elder brother coming back. His face was not the same as before, but with a bit of solemnity.
"Khan Ama, my son has something to report!"
Brother Jiu thought for a while and decided to report it to the emperor.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Works have reserves of materials for making meteorites. Who knows how many objects mixed with meteorites are in the palace.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
I want to test whether or not these things can harm people, or how they can harm people. It would be better to use them as queens.
Kangxi nodded and said, "Say! Knife."
The ninth elder brother talked about the speculation about the meteorite in the Tutong Mansion yesterday, and what he told the tenth elder brother this morning.
"My son thought that if the thing was really harmful, he would take it back and destroy it, so he told Lao Shi to interrogate the Zhao family."
Kangxi's expression became solemn and he said, "What notes are you Fujin reading?"
Brother Jiu shook his head and said, "I don't remember. She saw it in the early years. It was because of the 'Horse Stall' that she remembered it. As a result, I arrived at the Dutong Mansion yesterday. It really is such a coincidence."
He didn't have any books in Prince Kang's Mansion. If he really wanted to go to Prince Kang's Mansion to look for books for this, then who knows how other people arranged for Fujin to go to the Prince's Mansion frequently when he was a child?
Kangxi did not doubt what Brother Jiu said.
Because judging from current literary and historical records, there are records of "rain stone", "rain gold" and "rain iron" from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Meteorite is tough, and it has been used for casting for a long time.
After using it a lot, it is common to find something inappropriate and write down a few sentences.
Most of the people who handled Dong E's brand were dead.
Interrogating Mr. Zhao and finding the brand earlier is the best way at the moment.
Kangxi ordered: "Since you already know that it is inappropriate, you should pay more attention to this matter. Go to the clan mansion and work with the tenth elder brother to trace the whereabouts of this card!"
...When the brand is found and it is found to be inappropriate, then the meteorites stored by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Works must be used with caution.
