When He Yuzhu came back with a quilt in his arms, the ninth and tenth elder brothers were already waiting.
Wenchang seems to be made of wood, and it seems to be integrated into one piece, but if you look carefully, you can see that there is a hidden cover at the base below.
It's just that the lid is coated with clear oil.
If you don't pay attention, you might as well give up.
The ninth elder brother waved his hand and said to the tenth elder brother: "Stand at the door, don't stand in front of me, I will try to figure out how to open it."
Before he finished speaking, Brother Ten had already taken two steps forward, picked up the statue of Wenchang and threw it heavily to the ground.
The wooden statue of Wenchang immediately fell into pieces, revealing the cotton wool in the middle and a black sign as big as a palm.
No wonder I couldn't hear the movement inside when I held the wooden statue before, because the gaps were filled with cotton wool.
The sign looks like iron but not iron, gold but not gold. It is actually a strange and colorful color. It is shaped like a big circle with a small circle on top. It does look like a seated boy.
Brother Ten saw the thing clearly, immediately pulled the quilt, covered the iron sign, and said: "Okay, just confirm that it is indeed this thing. The rest will wait for the Holy Judge."
Brother Ninth Brother was not sure, so he took Brother Ten out and said, "Don't come too close. Who knows what's weird. I'll go to Qianqing Palace to see Khan Ama."
Brother Ten was also a little worried, so he nodded in agreement.
Everyone is afraid of death, and young people are no exception.
Brother Jiu came to Qianqing Palace for the third time.
"It looks quite different. It looks black at first glance, but there are also gold and other colors. No wonder the elders of the Dong E family regarded it as a treasure at that time..."
Brother Jiu described: "It's probably as big as my son's hand. Fortunately, it's like this. If it were a small brand, I don't know what would happen if I carried it with me."
Kangxi couldn't help frowning after hearing this.
He felt a little regretful, not thinking carefully, and should not let the ninth and tenth elder brothers pursue this.
Before, I thought I would have to work hard to find clues, and then I would arrange for people to track it down after I got the information.
As a result, the things were not lost at all. They were at Dong E's house, and they were retrieved as soon as they were told.
These two are both silly and bold, and I really watched them.
In the end, it was because of his mistake. Kangxi said: "You don't have to worry about this. I will send others to keep an eye on it."
With that said, he told Liang Jiugong: "Ask someone to go to Guangchusi to pick up a box, and give it to Ma Wu to go to the Zongren Mansion to pack the Meteor Star tablet. After getting it back, it will be placed directly in Jingshan Ji'an Office."
Liang Jiugong responded.
Brother Jiu was extremely curious and said: "Khan Ama, are you going to try it in Ji'an? How will you try it? Chicken or duck?"
Kangxi glanced at him and said, "Don't worry about this, just do your job!"
Brother Jiu nodded reluctantly, and then remembered a piece of news he heard from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and said: "Khan Ama, I heard that Manager Ha is going to be promoted to the censor of Zuodu?"
Kangxi nodded and said: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has almost sorted it out. He was originally the censor of the Zuo Deputy City, and his qualifications are sufficient."
Brother Ninth was a little reluctant to let go.
Such a rigorous person would have less worries in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The previous packers who had their eyes high above their heads were all dealt with honestly.
Ma Qi saw that he was a bachelor, and he would be busy in the future.
He Yi was a bodyguard, and he was completely incomparable to those two. He was just a makeshift person in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The ninth elder brother said: "Then this means that there is a vacant general manager? If there is a capable person, Khan Ama, please name someone else, so that my son can free up his hands to do big things."
Kangxi said: "Don't think about being lazy, Haryatu will continue to serve as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs!"
As for the big things mentioned by Brother Jiu, Kangxi felt that they were just trivial matters and there was no need to spend too much energy on them.
Just like when he spent tens of thousands of taels of silver from the imperial palace to purchase chicken blood stones.
Brother Jiu frowned and said: "Khan Ama, don't you arrange a special head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Mr. Ma is also the minister, and Mr. Ha also wants to be the censor of Zuodu. Even Mr. He is the minister of Sanyi. He needs someone. Seated and stamped in court.”
Kangxi glanced at Brother Nine and said: "Okay, everything is ready, what are you doing? Four is a lot, in the early years there were usually three. If you are short of people, don't you still have Zhang Baozhuo and Gao Yanzhong? ?”
This time Gao Yanzhong worked with Ma Qi and met him twice. Kangxi had a good impression of him.
Brother Jiu saw that Kangxi had made up his mind and left without hesitation.
It was already the beginning of Youchu, and when the Yamen closed down, he did not go back directly to the Second Office, but went to the Zongren Mansion.
Ma Wu is here, with a set of boxes.
The so-called box set is a five-layer box of gold, silver, copper, iron and tin.
It was made from the eight-fold treasure letter of the family, and it was also used to store things.
The size of the brand is so large that even the gold and silver boxes cannot fit in it, so it is installed on three levels.
After Ma Wu left, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother also came out of the clan mansion.
"Khan Amma said that he will be placed in Jingshan Ji'an..."
The ninth elder brother said to the tenth elder brother.
The tenth elder brother said: "It's better to stay away from the palace. I don't know what to do. I know there may be something fishy about it, and I feel weird."
Brother Jiu touched his chin and said, "But it's different from the black meteors I've seen before. This brand is colorful and looks a bit extraordinary. Tsk tsk. If only it was really a good thing. I'll do it three times a day." It's okay to worship, but I'm afraid it won't be my turn when the time comes. The Yuqing Palace is also looking forward to a legitimate son, who can compare with them?"
The tenth brother advised: "The theory of ghosts and gods is too unpredictable. Ninth brother, you should not believe this. Take good care of your health and you will have nothing to worry about."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Well, that's what I said."
When he arrived at the door of the second house, Brother Jiu was about to ask for some food, but a little head had already popped out of the door of the third house.
"Master Ten..."
Shi Fujin was a little excited, and came over to him like a little bird. He took Brother Shi's arm and said, "I asked the kitchen to make egg dumplings. Sister-in-law Jiu said they are your favorite!"
Brother 10 smiled and nodded: "Well, this is delicious too. I was thinking of asking you to try it someday."
All men love to eat meat, and he is no exception.
He also loves to eat eggs.
Last year, the two dining rooms always had egg dishes.
Among them, there is a dish of "Meat Minced with Eggs" and another dish of "Egg Dumplings", both of which Brother Ten still wants to eat after eating them.
Seeing the two of them clinging to each other, Brother Jiu also felt anxious.
There must be delicious food in the own dining room.
He waved his hand to Brother Ten in disgust and entered the courtyard.
Brother Shi smiled, lowered his head and said to Shi Fujin: "I'll be late when I come back. You can take care of me first in the afternoon."
As for having dinner separately, he didn't say anything.
He doesn't want to eat alone.
Shi Fujin nodded and said, "I ate. In the afternoon I ate half a plate of cakes and a few pieces of fried noodles. Sister-in-law Jiu gave them to me. Sister-in-law Jiu also asked someone to give them to others, lotus root starch, almond tea, fried noodles with oil, and fried rice." With fried noodles.”
Brother 10 felt relieved and said, "Then you should eat well and don't lose weight."
Shi Fujin turned his head and looked at Brother Ten and smiled.
The tenth brother saw that her eyes were like small fans, flickering, as if scratching people's hearts, and felt itchy in his heart, and said, "Why are you laughing?"
Shi Fujin raised his toes, leaned close to Brother Shi's ear, and whispered: "Do you think my little one is too small? Don't worry, as long as it is well fed, it will get up again and it won't delay our raising it." child!"
Brother Ten's face was hot and he wanted to block her moist mouth.
,"eat first……"
He coughed and said.
Shi Fujin nodded in agreement and took Brother Shi's arm into the third house.
*
The second room.
Brother Jiu simply washed himself, changed into clean clothes, and sat in front of the dressing table to look in the mirror.
It was getting late, and Xiaotang had already brought people to set the dining table in the next room.
Seeing that Brother Jiu hadn't come out yet, Shu Shu got up and went into the room, saying, "What are you looking at? Is there a pimple?"
Brother Jiu put down the mirror and looked back at Shu Shu with a sad look in his eyes.
This pitiful little appearance...
Shu Shu reflected on it and didn't expect any oversight.
She pulled Brother Jiu to stand up and said, "Eat first. I'm so hungry waiting for you to come back."
Brother Jiu hurriedly said: "How can that be done? What did you say before, that the way to maintain health is to eat regularly and ration it? Otherwise, if you are hungry and full after a meal, your stomach will be ruined. How can you still knowingly do it? "
Shu Shu looked at him and said, "I'm not here. I don't want to eat bamboo shoots alone."
Brother Jiu said: "Now that the day is getting longer and there is not much going on in the yamen, I will come back for lunch at noon!"
Shu Shu hesitated and said: "Is this convenient? Aren't the adults around here having their lunch at the Yamen?"
Brother Jiu said: "Don't worry about others, they don't live in the palace."
Shu Shu said nothing more and said: "It's okay now. When we go into ambush, we will still deliver food. It's hot at noon and the sun is shining brightly."
Hearing what she said, Brother Jiu thought of Changchun Garden and said, "If the Holy Driver goes there to escape the summer heat with the help of the Queen Mother, we don't know if we can follow him. But this time there are more people like Lao Shi and Fu Jin. Lao Shi can't squeeze in with Twelve." If it’s gone, Hechi Four Houses will no longer be able to live in it.”
He began to worry about the problem of accommodation, and set his sights on several yards outside the West Garden that would be built in the next year.
"I'll discuss it later with Lao Shi and see if we can take advantage of it first."
Brother Jiu said, ready to make a move.
Shu Shu had to remind him, "Didn't I say there are only five courtyards?"
From the eldest elder brother to the seventh elder brother, even the eighth elder brother has no share, let alone him and the tenth elder brother.
How to occupy it first?
Isn't it offending someone?
Brother Jiu just thought about this quantity issue and found it difficult. He frowned and said: "I found that it is not good for these brothers to be too popular with each other. It is not convenient to rob. Otherwise, I will directly rob the third and fourth brothers." , or the third brother and the seventh brother, now only the third brother has the yard to grab..."
It's not enough to score even if you grab it.
The five courtyards over there are similar to the one here, but they are smaller in size, that is, the second courtyard.
There are sixteen rooms in each courtyard.
If he and Lao Shi were to squeeze into the same courtyard, he might as well continue to live in Hechi No. 4.
Brother Jiu said with annoyance: "You are so stupid. If you had just begged Khan Amma to build two rows of yards, wouldn't it have been solved?"
