The door of the head office.
Everyone came out and watched Kangxi leave.
Kangxi did not call for the chariot, but walked quietly into the chariot, and left with the eunuchs and guards.
Only then did Brother Jiu notice that the person leading the imperial guards following him was none other than Ma Qi's younger brother Ma Wu.
He didn't even say hello just now.
From now on, he will also be a master uncle.
He looked at the direction where Kangxi and his party left, showing an annoyed look.
The eldest brother glanced at him and said, "You know you regret it? Weren't you very brave just now? You dared to say anything!"
Brother Jiu looked at him and said with helplessness: "What's going on here? My younger brother just regrets not saying hello to Ma Wu, and so do you, elder brother. Why can't you listen to the truth? The truth doesn't sound good, but it's well intentioned! "
"Rosacea? Smelly all over? Is this your kindness? You're so kind!" the eldest brother laughed and scolded.
Brother Nine bared his teeth and said, "Rude!"
The eldest brother rubbed his fists and said, "How about I show you what it means to be really rude?"
The ninth elder brother jumped away and hid behind the fourth elder brother, saying: "Fourth elder brother, look at the elder brother, does he still act like an elder brother? You don't want to set an example, that is, in front of us, if you look back below, If you guys talk to me about it, you will be a bad boy!"
Fourth Brother: Teeth.
It's not entirely unreasonable to ramble on here and there.
The eldest brother rolled his eyes and said, "If you are really promising, you will learn to complain!"
Brother Jiu's eyes were full of joy and he said: "When you see a wise man, he will always think of you. Old... Third brother's trick worked well, so my younger brother learned it. I told you that everyone should learn it, so that we can level up in the future and avoid suffering a disadvantage against Third brother!" "
The eldest brother laughed out loud "Haha" and said: "In the past year, how has the third child taken advantage of you? Every time I have been unlucky, my body hurts from the fine. I guess I will avoid you when I see you in the future!"
Brother Jiu said proudly: "That's not just right, my brother wishes he was the 'ghost seeing sorrow'!"
The fourth brother listened to his words becoming more and more outrageous, and scolded: "Okay, shut up, and don't talk outside in the future!"
After hearing this, Ninth Brother put down his little face and said: "It's not in front of others, or in front of my brothers, why can't you tell the truth? Fourth Brother, you are too vain, and you are too pretentious. You are still a human being." You have to be like a younger brother and be more realistic..."
The fourth elder brother had a dark face.
Is this true?
This is stupid!
The fifth elder brother was a little scared.
My fourth brother also loves to hold grudges.
Lao Jiu doesn't have a long memory.
He changed his words and said, "Do you have anything to do with Ma Wu?"
Otherwise, it doesn't matter whether you say hello or not.
The corners of Brother Jiu's mouth drooped and he said: "Khan Ama pointed out Ma Qi to be the prince's tutor. This is not Ma Wu but his brother. He has also grown up a generation, so the younger brother should think more carefully..."
Except for the tenth prince, everyone else was stunned.
Before, they heard that Brother Jiu mentioned something about the prince's division. They thought it was the person pointed out by Hanlin who was walking in the South Study Room, similar to Fahai.
He is said to be the prince's tutor, but in fact he is the attendant who watches his elder brother read.
I didn’t expect it to be Ma Qi.
The eldest brother frowned and said, "Is there something wrong with the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
Brother Si also had concern on his face and said: "Aren't there several general managers now? When you encounter ordinary things, you should do it as usual. If it's an embarrassing errand, you should ask a few more adults for advice..."
Brother Ninth raised his chin and said with dissatisfaction: "Eldest brother, fourth brother, are you looking down on others? Is younger brother the kind of incompetent person who fails in his job and makes Khan Ama worry about making amends?"
The eldest brother hummed softly: "Okay then, Khan Amma points to a master? Khan Amma is full, or is Ma Qi just an idler?"
Brother Jiu's face showed a bit of embarrassment, and he said: "Hey, my brother also spent half the night thinking about it yesterday, trying to figure out what went wrong. It should be that Chengjue's decree came down from his father-in-law a few days ago, and my brother took Fujin to Guining. , empty-handed..."
"Khan Amma made a fuss and asked his younger brother to recite the Zhou Rites, and even pointed at Ma Qi and stared at him."
"This is really unfair. Every time I went there, I was always empty-handed. I just came back in a hurry that day."
The eldest brother twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Then what were you doing at Yue's house that day?"
"Congratulations! Wasn't this the case where the title of Viscount was suspended a while ago?"
The ninth elder brother glanced at the eldest elder brother and said, "Brother, you are too ill-informed!"
The eldest brother hummed softly: "You also know that it is a congratulation, so why are you still empty-handed?"
The fourth elder brother, who was standing by, also shook his head.
Isn't this what we deserve?
Since he is not complete in terms of favors and etiquette, it is no wonder that he should be given a teacher to learn "Zhou Rites" all over again.
The fifth elder brother also said: "It's your fault. Isn't it time to prepare for the congratulatory ceremony? My siblings are in good condition. To preserve your dignity, you should also preserve the dignity of your siblings!"
Not long ago, my father-in-law was transferred back to Beijing. Brother Jiu asked people to send congratulatory gifts and went through all the etiquette.
Now that I think about it, that must be the concern of my younger siblings.
Even the tenth elder brother didn't expect this to be the reason, and looked at the ninth elder brother with disapproval.
Brother Jiu touched his forehead and said, "Even if I forgot, it's not that I was unprepared. I remembered it after I left the palace, so I didn't ask anyone to go back to get it. I thought that my brother's father-in-law and mother-in-law loved my daughter the most, so they took Fujin back. If you’re happy, a gift won’t hurt!”
"It can't be calculated like this. My younger siblings are originally the family's daughters. Going back to spend a day with their parents is part of the relationship. You shouldn't use the things in the relationship as a favor!"
The fifth elder brother brought condemnation: "Besides, renqing is renqing and etiquette is etiquette. It's okay to have too much, but it shouldn't be too little!"
The eldest brother said: "This gentleman made a good point. People who are almost 20 are not young anymore. They should also learn to be worldly."
The fourth elder brother said: "The male is responsible for the outside and the female is responsible for the internal affairs. If you don't learn how to do things outside, do you still need your younger siblings to worry about them?"
Brother Ninth felt his head was getting heavy, so he nodded quickly and said: "Yeah, um, I will definitely study hard and go visit Master Maqima tomorrow morning."
The fourth elder brother was more worried and said: "I have inquired, Mr. Ma will not take a bath tomorrow?"
Ninth Prince: Teeth.
Ma Qi had so many errands on his shoulders, and Khan Ama used them so hard that he wished he could split him into two envoys, and Xiu Mu?
Brother Si said helplessly: "You didn't ask, where did you go to visit Ma Qi?"
"Yuanzi is a housekeeper. It just so happens that my brother plans to work here in the future."
Brother Jiu said: "It's getting hot and I don't want to bother with it. Let's just send official documents here every day!"
The eldest brother felt that it was inappropriate and said: "No, it's too contemptuous and too public. You can't do it like this."
Being arrogant means being stuck in the office to apprentice, while being public is exposing the relationship between the two and attracting attention.
no need.
There is always a small group of people who are afraid that the world will not be in chaos.
Concubine Yi was already favored, but now that she has given birth to the emperor's youngest son, the ninth prince is still openly worshiping Ma Qi, who is about to join the cabinet. Who knows what others will think.
The fourth elder brother said: "Listen to my eldest brother. Tomorrow, send someone to Ma Qi's house to send greetings. Also ask Ma Qi's family when he will take a rest. Make an appointment and then come to the door in person. Please be patient and be polite! Please be polite. Okay, no need to make a big deal about it.”
The corners of Brother Jiu's mouth drooped even more, and he said: "My brother is in trouble. Not to mention the 'three festivals and two lifespans', if Ma Qi marries a girl now, will my brother also have to follow the family?"
The eldest brother saw that he still cared about this and wanted to kick him.
It's no use thinking about these things all day long.
This means that Suo'etu is no longer there, otherwise, it would really make people sweat.
The fourth elder brother frowned tightly, thinking of the relationship between Ma Qi and the eighth elder brother.
Brother Jiu also thought of this and couldn't help complaining: "What is this? Is it still too late to encourage Ma Qi to regret his marriage?"
Fourth Brother glared at him and said, "What did you say?!"
Brother Jiu's face became more irritated and he said: "If we don't have this relationship, I will ignore Fujin if I don't want to talk to him. If I don't have this relationship, I have to be more polite."
Brother No. 10 said from the sidelines: "You don't have to be so careful. One code is one code. How dare Ma Qi find fault?"
The fifth elder brother also said: "That's right, you don't need to take it too seriously, and it's not like the Han people. You are just the prince's attendant. Just be polite. No more is necessary."
People are distant and close, so in their hearts, Shu Shu, the sister-in-law (sister-in-law) is naturally closer to them.
Brother Jiu murmured: "Who knows whether Khan Ama will find fault with him when the time comes. He keeps saying things repeatedly..."
The fourth brother stared back at the second half of the sentence.
The eldest brother's vision was a little distant.
He looked in the direction of Changchun Garden and then in the direction of West Garden.
Without Suo'etu, the atmosphere in the court seemed to have relaxed.
He no longer goes on a rampage, and the prince no longer needs to be on guard.
What will be the pattern in the future?
The prince is getting older.
If he doesn't move, will the prince feel at ease?
Can Khan Amma feel at ease?
The eldest brother felt gloating about his misfortune and wanted to drink again. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, let's go!"
Everyone nodded and came out of the front door.
The ninth elder brother stood at the door of the second school, and then said to the fifth elder brother and the tenth elder brother: "I have something to do with the fourth elder brother."
The fifth elder brother and the tenth elder brother responded and then dispersed.
The fourth elder brother glanced at the ninth elder brother.
Brother Jiu looked around and whispered: "Fourth brother, find a quiet place to talk."
The fourth elder brother nodded.
Brother Jiu then ordered He Yuzhu: "Get the book from the second drawer in the study."
He Yuzhu responded.
Brother Ninth thought of Yaqibu's family.
It can't be delayed any longer.
I have to prepare it before I move there.
Save yourself the trouble.
You also have to be on guard against villains.
Seeing that he was serious, Fourth Brother also became serious and took him directly to the study.
"Fourth brother, I'm afraid this matter will embarrass you."
The ninth elder brother saw the concerned look on the fourth elder brother's face, and had a rare conscience attack.
The discussion had nothing to do with Fourth Elder Brother, but Fourth Elder Brother got involved, which might have affected his friendship with Eighth Brother.
Brother Si frowned and said, "What are you talking about? What on earth is going on?"
Brother Jiu said: "There is no basis for what I say. You will know when He Yuzhu takes the booklet..."
In just half a quarter of an hour, He Yuzhu arrived.
Brother Ninth said: "Just hand it to Fourth Brother to see. They have been gathered together for a while."
The fourth brother took it out of curiosity and took a look at it. The more he looked at it, the darker his face became.
