Yin De's house, main house.
Yin De is like baking pancakes, but he still has no sleep at night.
Mr. Dong endured his impatience and said, "What are you worried about, Master?"
Yin De sat up and said, "Don't worry about asking the housekeeper to see you off. How about I make a trip."
Not only is the capital city thousands of miles away from Shengjing, but also because only the steward sent him there, which seemed too negligent. When he arrived in Shengjing, he would probably be looked down upon by the Tong family.
Although the Niu Hulu family's family status is no less than that of the Tong family.
But they are concubines, and those over there are direct descendants, which is a big difference.
The Eight Banners clearly distinguish their direct descendants and common people.
Dong also sat up.
The room was dark, and she had no intention of getting up and lighting the lamp. She only said: "But isn't the Tenth Master going to open a mansion? At that time, many things will happen inside and outside, and I, a third-rank official, will be in front of him. It all depends on the Tenth Master's grace, not to mention repayment." Other than that, we can’t slack off on our duties!”
Yin De struggled and said, "Why don't you tell Fifth Brother?"
Mr. Dong frowned and said, "Master, it's better not to cause trouble to others..."
The brothers were originally the same, but over the past year they have been separated, and their relationship has long been awkward.
Yin De said sadly: "What should we do? Zhengtai is only twelve years old and is not very useful. He can't just be a slave accompanying him!"
Mrs. Dong felt that her heart was boiling. She suppressed her anger and said, "There is no reason to abolish public service for personal reasons. Why don't I go and ask the Tenth Master tomorrow when the day of the opening of the mansion is? There is really no way. I can only I can give it away in a few days."
Yin De nodded and said, "That's right."
He put his worries aside and lay down to sleep.
Mr. Dong followed and lay down, but his eyes stared for a long time.
As long as she doesn't have a girl, she won't care about Da Gege.
But she has a daughter, and the eldest daughter is about to grow old.
Thinking of this, Dong's back molars were almost broken.
How dare she let Da Gege go through troubles in the capital and cause trouble later, which would implicate her daughter, and it would be too late to regret.
Now she doesn't ask for anything else but to throw this hot potato away.
At dawn the next day, Yin De woke up early.
When he saw that his wife had not moved yet, he pushed her.
Dong yawned and sat up, feeling weak and dizzy.
Yin De saw her ugly face and said, "What's wrong?"
Ms. Dong felt sick in her chest and hurriedly covered her mouth.
Yin De saw something was wrong and hurriedly went down to the ground and brought a spittoon over.
"Wow."
Mr. Dong lowered his head and vomited.
They are an old married couple with several children.
Everyone knows this kind of reaction, and this is happening again.
Although there are several sons in the family, including Zhengtai, the adopted son, and two Dong legitimate sons, no one would dislike having too many sons.
Yin De was overjoyed and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Ms. Dong felt bitter in her heart.
There are many children, but those who are sitting on nothing will spend their money in the future.
The thing she regrets most in her life is that she agreed to her husband three years ago to pick up the Zhenglan siblings and raise them.
What he thought at the time was simple. Aling'a had suppressed his two concubine brothers, Fifth Master and Sixth Master, for more than ten years by virtue of being an internal minister. Her husband was also the son of Duke Kexi and the grandson of Duke Hongyi. Why should he be bullied all these years in vain? ?
There is no hope for the future. Could it be that Aling'a harmed his two brothers and still dares to continue harming others?
Half of them really pity Zhenglan sister and brother, and half of them are just selfish.
As a result, we ended up in this situation now.
There was a buzzing sound in her temples and she was tired. She whispered: "Master, I don't feel very well. I slept late last night and I need to take a rest..."
Yin De nodded and said, "Then you have a good rest and get some sleep. You will have nothing to do today."
It's getting late now, and it's almost dawn before it gets bright outside.
Yin De didn't want to go directly to his niece at the back, so he walked to the window of the east wing and whispered: "Zhengtai, Zhengtai"
Someone inside responded vaguely.
Yin De said: "Don't rush out. I'll be free in a few days and take you there."
There was another response inside.
Yin De felt relieved and went out to the clan's mansion.
Wood.
In the east wing, Zhengtai's face was red and he was confused by the fever. He murmured: "Ama... Ama... Enie... don't leave."
Wood.
The door of Shenwu Gate.
The carriage of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was already waiting outside.
Shi Fujin held Shu Shu's hand and whispered: "Sister-in-law is leaving now. I won't say goodbye to the imperial grandmother and the empress..."
Shu Shu shook her head.
There's no way to say goodbye in advance, it's not good to be too calm.
When the time comes, will the elders ask to keep it, or will they not keep it?
Are you obedient or disobedient?
She said softly: "If my brothers and sisters go to Ningshou Palace to kowtow today, remember to kowtow on my behalf. Just wait until the Chinese New Year and I will kowtow to the imperial grandmother again to ask for red envelopes."
By then she was slightly pregnant, but not yet clumsy.
As for the Queen Mother's birthday, it was in early October, so it was too late.
Shi Fujin then asked: "Where is the concubine?"
Shu Shu said: "I'd like to trouble my brothers and sisters to go out for me and accuse me on my behalf."
Shi Fujin shook his head and said, "It's not my fault, sister-in-law, it's all for my little brother."
As she said this, she glanced at Shu Shu's belly and said with awe, "Both the imperial grandmother and the concubine will be considerate."
Shu Shu nodded.
The tenth elder brother was standing by and was also talking to the ninth elder brother, saying: "Why don't the ninth elder brother stop worrying about coming back and spend the whole day with the ninth elder brother? I'll just keep an eye on you. I won't go to the clan mansion for the next few days."
Brother Jiu said: "Yesterday Gao Bin sent someone to deliver a letter. Today I will come back to pick up the banknotes. I also want to ask how the situation is over there."
The matter in Xiaotangshan is indeed not a trivial matter.
Do it beautifully, and when the time comes, your brothers will all be indebted to you, and you can even give Yu Qinggong a slap in the face.
The tenth elder brother said: "Ninth brother, don't be in a hurry to come back. You can come back after lunch in time."
Brother Ninth said: "I've met with Gao Bin and arranged the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I'll go there in the afternoon."
Tenth brother:
It seems like all the worries were in vain.
but.
He suppressed his laughter and said, "Brother Ninth plans to stay in Dutong Mansion tonight?"
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Of course, I won't worry about leaving your sister-in-law alone."
He is already an adult prince and has a family and a career, so why can't he still stay out?
The tenth elder brother said: "But the ninth elder brother, there seems to be a rule that husband and wife cannot have sex while returning to Ning."
"Huh? y."
Brother Jiu was surprised and said, "Where do you sleep?"
Brother 10 thought for a while and said, "Guest room?"
Brother Jiu glanced at him and said, "Okay, why are you asking about this? Are you planning to go to Abahai?"
There are many restrictions on the clan leaving the capital.
Unless he is a guard or on an errand, he usually stays in the capital.
The tenth prince coughed slightly and said, "On the southern tour, I heard Fu Nai talk about some wedding customs in the capital, so I just remembered a few words."
At that time, he was newly married and on his way.
Fu Nai was a good talker, so he mentioned a few current marriage customs to him.
After hearing this, the ninth elder brother believed in the tenth elder brother, but he still refused to give up. He leaned close to Shu Shu and said, "Have you ever heard of the rule that couples cannot have the same room in Guining?"
Shu Shu nodded and said, "There is such a thing. It seems to say that having sex with husband and wife will stain the ancestral gods of the mother's family and ruin their luck."
Brother Jiu pursed his lips and was unhappy.
All these nagging things mean that they cannot see the love between husband and wife.
However, he didn't mean to mess with the customs. He just said: "Then what will you do tonight? I don't have you here."
Shu Shu thought for a while and said, "Enie should come to sleep with me. Tomorrow I will go to the uncle's house to sleep with Amou."
Brother Jiu also wanted to reach out and twist Shu Shu's waist.
Shi Fujin said enviously: "If I go back to Abahai, it will be like this. One day I will sleep with my Ehe, and the other day I will sleep with my grandma."
Amogg means grandmother in Mongolian.
Brother Jiu and Shu Shu got into the carriage.
Xiaosong took peanuts and got on the carriage behind.
He Yuzhu took Zhou Song to sit beside the carriage.
The guard officer of Shenwu Sect saw this and stepped forward: "Master Jiu, do you want me to send someone to inform the guard office?"
There were no guards accompanying him.
That means he didn't report it to the guard office.
Brother Jiu picked up the curtain of the car, glanced at the leader, and said, "No need, just go back to Dianmen and ask Shi Hujun to follow."
The counselor watched Brother Jiu's carriage go away, but he felt uneasy.
He thought for a while and went to the commander of the banner guard who was on duty.
News in this palace always spreads quickly.
In just one night last night, many people got the news.
Brother Jiu was scolded and wanted to move out of the palace.
The counselor didn't dare to hide it because he was worried about it.
The commander of the guard army did not dare to hide it and went directly to Qianqing Palace.
I reported it yesterday, but I didn't hear that the emperor summoned Brother Ninth, but he did summon Empress Yikun Palace.
Master Jiu's identity as his "loved son" is still very stable, so leaving the palace like this seems a bit pitiful.
If they kept it secret and expressed their anger later, they would not get anything good.
Wood.
Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.
Breakfast has just been served. Concubine Yifei stayed overnight yesterday and was serving the meal nearby.
Liang Jiugong came in and said, "Your Majesty, Toulun, the commander of the Zhengbai Banner Guards, would like to see you."
Kangxi glanced at the clock, it was only the second quarter of the lunar month.
Is there anything important that you can report at this time?
"Pass it on!"
He put down his chopsticks and said.
Yi Fei stood up and wanted to avoid it.
Kangxi said: "No, just sit down."
Concubine Yi left the dining table and sat on the small stool.
When Tuo Lun came in, he called Qian Qian and said, "Slave Tuo Lun, please greet me, Master."
"install!"
Kangxi said: "What's the matter? Come here at this time?"
Tuolun said: "Master, Brother Chen Chujiu brought Jiu Fujin out of the palace. He didn't call any guards. He only brought two palace people and two guards, and called a few guards at Di'anmen..."
Kangxi frowned after hearing this.
©He looked at Concubine Yi with questioning eyes.
Isn’t it said that twenty-five is a good day?
Why did you move today?
The key point is that he was extremely unfilial and did not even go to the emperor to say goodbye!
Concubine Yi was also surprised. She looked at Na Toulun and said, "Are there only Jiu Age and Jiu Fujin? There are no Ten Ages and his wife?"
Tuo Lun did not dare to look directly at Concubine Yi, but he also knew that no one else but the mother of the ninth elder brother would dare to directly ask about the matter of the ninth elder brother in front of the emperor.
He said respectfully: "Ten Master and Shi Fujin sent people out of Shenwu Sect and returned."
Concubine Yi was kind-hearted and looked at Kangxi and said, "It must be that Brother Jiu was worried about Jiu Fujin and sent Jiu Fujin back to the capital..."
