From beginning to end, Brother Si was silent for a long time.
He closed the book, looked at Brother Ninth, his eyes were inquiring, and his voice was a little cold: "Why Zha Yaqibu?"
It was wrong for Yaqib to be greedy and unfaithful, but wasn't the behavior of Brother Ninth Brother wrong?
Brother Jiu looked him directly in the eyes and said, "The fourth brother also knows about the old girl in his family. Do you think it was Yaqib who made his own decision, or is it something else?"
The fourth elder brother was stunned.
He was speechless.
No one is a fool. He doesn't want to think too badly of his brother, but he also knows that there is something fishy about it.
But this matter is too disgusting to be discussed openly.
It’s not easy to delve into.
Brother Jiu snorted softly and said: "Just think that the old boy is dreaming. I beat him up, so I can't prevent him from causing trouble!"
"I thought I knew myself and the enemy, and acted as a back-up. Who knew I could find out these things."
"I originally planned to pass it to Ba Fujin and tell them to go dog eat dog, but who would have thought that now that person is no longer useful..."
"Years ago, my brother wanted to leave the palace. Looking at Fusong, are you a match for that old boy Yaqib?"
"Anyway, I keep this person next to my brother's house. My brother feels uneasy..."
Brother Jiu knew that this brother was serious, so instead of making up lies, it would be better to tell the truth.
Anyway, he is not harming others and not benefiting himself.
Hearing him tell the truth, Fourth Brother's expression softened slightly.
He still warned: "Such a thing is taboo and will not be allowed in the future."
According to the rules of the Eight Banners, even if a bannerman violates national law, he must be returned to his owner after being dealt with according to the law.
This kind of servant who bypasses his master and directly deals with others does not behave like this.
This is a slap in the face of Eighth Prince.
Brother Jiu said irritably: "Then the younger brother didn't take care of him himself, why did he wait for the eighth brother to take care of him? The two of them are the internal and external housekeepers of the Babel Mansion, and the eighth brother treated them as confidants. The younger brother went over and said directly, this proves that he is blind, isn't it a fight? Face?"
Fourth elder brother frowned, feeling troubled.
This slave is the source of trouble and cannot be kept.
Keeping him is just a thorn in the side of the brothers, and he must be guarded against instigating him in front of the eighth prince.
However, this matter must be kept confidential.
"Who else knows about this?"
The fourth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother and said, "Does the tenth brother know?"
Brother Jiu hurriedly shook his head and said: "I just found out that it was Gao Bin. I found it out through Yaqibu's uncles and brothers. No one knows..."
As for Shu Shu, there’s no need to forget it.
Not "who", husband and wife are one.
Brother Si nodded and said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about this anymore."
Brother Ninth hesitated a little and said: "Will it embarrass the fourth brother? How about leaving it to Khan Ama directly? The nanny and the nanny are not good. It's also because he didn't choose a good person. He just asked the Shenxing Department directly. tidy!"
The fourth elder brother looked at him and said, "So no room left?"
When it comes to the Department of Punishment, things get serious.
Although Yaqibu and his wife will not fare well, the eighth prince will also be laughed at.
The ninth elder brother lowered his head and said: "Anyway, I don't want him to continue wandering around the capital. See what he can do?! I am still the prince's elder brother. I have provoked him once and twice. There is such a person in the eighth brother It’s because of my surroundings that even the mynas followed and went astray..."
He felt bad too.
No one wants to admit that they are blind.
Seeing that he was drooping, Fourth Brother could not reprimand him. He only said: "It's unreasonable for brothers to be so stiff all the time..."
Brother Jiu looked at him and said: "Fourth brother wants to be the middle man, and then listens to Eighth Brother pretending to apologize to his younger brother, right? Let's forget it. It's boring, and we won't keep in contact with each other until we die. It's just that we are married and working together, so there is no need to deal with it." Day and night are mixed together..."
Fourth Brother sighed, still feeling it was a pity.
If you make a mistake, you have to admit it and correct it.
Since they are brothers, there is no need to be too harsh.
Seeing that he wanted to say more, Brother Jiu hurriedly said: "My younger brother is timid and cowardly. You see, Brother Baz is the support given by Khan Amma to my elder brother, and he is also regarded as a 'Great Qiantai Party' behind his back. My younger brother should stand farther away. Don’t worry about offending the prince later!”
Fourth Brother glared at him.
Why didn't you think of the prince when we were having dinner today?
Now you know how to avoid suspicion? !
but.
Brother Si felt a little strange. It seemed that he had heard Lao Jiu's nonsense a lot recently, and every time he felt that it made some sense.
He gave up his thoughts of making peace and said, "Okay, let's stay away from Qiqing from now on. The elders and younger ones should be in order, and we should be able to look good on the face."
Brother Jiu sneered twice, nodded and said, "Okay, my brother understands."
It’s true that the crow can’t see how bad he is. He has such a sour temper, but he actually has the nerve to stop himself from Qi Qing!

When he returned to the Fourth House, Brother Jiu couldn't help but complained to Shu Shu: "I really couldn't bear it at that time, otherwise I would just fight back! I have the nerve to say it, but Ama never said anything about my happiness or anger. indefinite'"
Shu Shu said: "It's the same with older brothers. I'm afraid that my younger brother will do something wrong. Zhu Liang also likes to nag in front of the younger ones..."
Brother Jiu said: "But I know what's good. I remember this favor. Let's return the favor later when we find an opportunity."
Shu Shu nodded in agreement without any objection.
Just as the fourth elder brother warned the ninth elder brother, it is taboo to go beyond the master to clean up other people's clothes. Now that this hot potato is handed to the fourth elder brother, it is a bit unkind.
The fourth elder brother took it all in, whether it was for the ninth elder brother or the eighth elder brother, he acted like an elder brother.

The prince listened to the eunuch's report.
"Prince Zhijun gathered several elder brothers for a banquet, and the emperor also passed by..."
The prince was a little surprised and said, "What day is today?"
Even if you want to have a banquet, don’t you have to have a reason?
The eunuch said: "I don't even know."
After the prince finished speaking, he knew that he must have made a mistake.
If it were any elder brother's birthday, it wouldn't be a few of the younger elder brothers from Hechi Sisuo.
He looked at the eunuch and said: "There is no need to stare at that place from now on, and there is no need to ask others about the movements of the holy driver, which is a taboo."0
If you are caught then, it will be a serious crime of "spying on the emperor's traces".
The eunuch bowed in response.
The prince felt that his heart should be calm, but he couldn't help but look in the direction of the new fifth institute.
The eldest elder brother, fourth elder brother, fifth elder brother, ninth elder brother and tenth elder brother now live there.
Even the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother are out on errands.
Hasn't the eldest brother always been aloof and arrogant, so he started to win over his younger brothers?
Then one waxes and wanes.
Khan Ama had previously intended to get close to the third child.
The prince's mind raced and he remembered the "Book of Han".
The deposed prince Liu Rong·
That is also a lesson learned from the past.
Even though his biological mother was deceased, Khan Amma would not worry about his harem, but Khan Amma treated the princes very seriously.
Until now, he believed that he was still Khan Amma's most valued son, but he was not the only son he valued.
The eldest son of the emperor is different after all.
He looked at the four places of the lotus pond.
Not only does the boss win over people, he also treats his younger brothers well.

Looking at the first-class guard Bose who came to apologize, Kangxi looked ugly and said: "Let's start from the beginning, what is going on?"
Bose's forehead was dripping with sweat, but he didn't dare to quibble and told the truth about the situation on the school field in the evening.
"Brothers were rehearsing in the afternoon, and the haha beads next to Brother Akedun got into a dispute with the haha beads next to Brother Fifteenth. Brother Akedun got angry and wanted someone to hit Brother Fifteen's haha beads. …”
"The fifteenth elder brother refused to let me go. The fifteenth elder brother said that he didn't know how to respect me."
"The fifteenth elder brother's haha Zhushou Shan said that there is order between elders and young ones. There is something wrong with the fifteenth elder brother. The emperor can teach the prince, but elder brother Akedun should not say it."
"Brother Akedun said that the fifteenth elder brother was born from a humble mother and is the youngest elder brother. He will also become the banner genus of other elder brothers in the future."
"Shoushan said that the fifteenth elder brother's dignity comes from the emperor. No matter who his biological mother is, he is a distinguished prince. The same is true for elder brother Akdun. His dignity comes from the prince..."
"Brother Akdun was angry and was about to beat Shou Shan. Brother Fifteen and Brother Baofu stopped him. Later, Brother Akdun's companion also came forward."
In one group, there were four imperial grandsons who accompanied the reading, and in the other group, there were eight princes who accompanied the reading.
The fifteenth elder brother should have won, but the fifteenth elder brother was young and there were several of his companions who were similar in age, so it shouldn't be used.
On the contrary, the four imperial grandsons accompanied the older ones, who were thirteen or fourteen years old, and the younger ones, who were also eleven or two years old.
So when the guards separated the young masters, the prince was at a disadvantage.
Brother Baofu was hit on the head, Shoushan had a cut on the corner of his mouth, and Brother Fifteen also received two blows on his body.
Kangxi looked at Bose and thought a lot in his mind.
This is a descendant of the Niu Hulu family.
Was it too hasty that I originally arranged for him to be the martial arts master in the study?
Then he thought that the tenth prince was still in the palace and his relationship with the Niu Hulu family was just like that, and he knew that he was overthinking.
He looked at Bose and said: "There are only twelve people in total. It makes no sense that you remember a few names but not others."
Bose's forehead sweated even more.
Kangxi said: "Who around Akedun had a dispute with who around Brother Fifteen?"
Bose said with a pale face: "It's Dening and Xishan..."
The companion of the emperor's grandson was chosen by Yuqing Palace himself, but the companion of the fifteenth elder brother was hand-picked by Kangxi.
Xishan, the nephew of the Crown Princess, is also the youngest among this group of princes' companions. He is the same age as the fifteenth elder brother and is only seven years old.
"Which family does Dening belong to?"
Kangxi asked.
The nephew of the Crown Princess and the young master of the uncle's house are not outsiders to the people of Yuqing Palace.
If you don't say you are respectful, why do you still take the initiative to provoke?
Bose said: "He is brother Aktun's uncle and cousin."
Kangxi glanced at him and knew why Bose was confused before.
This was mixed into the internal fighting in Yuqing Palace.
He asked: "What did the imperial doctor say?"
Bose said: "Brother Baofu needs to rest for a few days to prevent dizziness."
Kangxi nodded and asked, "Who took action against Brother Fifteen?"
Bose's eyes turned dark, but he still responded honestly: "Brother Aktun..."
Kangxi was not surprised and nodded: "Okay, let's kneel down!"
He was extremely angry, but he had no intention of punishing Bose right now.
In that case, the internal fighting in Yuqing Palace will be exposed to the world.
Bose went down tremblingly.
Kangxi looked at Liang Jiugong and said, "Pass on Zhao Chang."
Liang Jiugong responded and went out.
After a while, Zhao Chang came in according to the order.
"Investigate, investigate the dispute in the school grounds this afternoon from beginning to end."
Kangxi ordered.
Because Li Gege once hooked up with the prince's wet nurse, and the two had a private deal, Kangxi didn't like the eldest and second elder brothers of Yuqing Palace, and now he felt even more disgusted.
His prince's elder brother is not in the turn of others to be scornful of.
The Crown Princess is Aktun's legitimate mother. As long as he knows the rules, he should restrain the people around him instead of letting them bully the Crown Princess's nephew.
In terms of etiquette, Xishan is his cousin.
