He Yuzhu also woke up, looked at the movement at the door, picked up the lamp and came over, staring in confusion: "What are you looking at?"
Before he finished speaking, there was another movement in the southeast corner.
"Woof woof woof woof..."
He Yuzhu suddenly woke up and said, "Master, come in quickly!"
Brother Jiu didn't insist, but looked to the south.
Such a loud noise was heard by everyone in the main courtyard, and the guard at the front would also hear it.
Then he thought of Ning'antang, kicked He Yuzhu, and said: "Stop standing there stupidly, put on your clothes and go to Ning'antang to see, don't scare the county master..."
He Yuzhu glanced at him and said, "But the county master and his wife are both in the back building."
Brother Jiu was worried because he was afraid of shocking Shu Shu and the children.
He pulled on his shoes, put on his cloak and came out. After passing through the hall of the penthouse, he saw that the back building was quiet, and it didn't look like he was disturbed, so he tightened his cloak and came back.
After a while, there was movement in the yard.
Seeing the lights on in the main room, the people outside called someone through the door: "Master, a thief has been captured in the east courtyard and is locked up in the front. The black guard asked me what to do with him?"
It was Cui Baisui's voice.
Brother Jiu came out and said, "Let's go take a look!"
Fusong took Chunlin to Tianjin early yesterday morning. Brother Jiu sent him privately, just to let them buy some seafood to satisfy Shu Shu's greed.
Brother Jiu felt distressed when he kept eating those kinds of food.
According to the distance, it is estimated that Fusong and the others will not be able to come back this afternoon or tomorrow.
Montenegro came over to watch the night.
While talking, Brother Jiu took He Yuzhu to the front.
The side hall at the front was brightly lit.
In addition to Heishan and Xing Jiang who were on night watch, Xing Hai, the eldest son of Xing, was also on duty. He happened to be on night watch in the greenhouse tonight.
There were several people tied up on the ground, looking at the deer-headed mice with their mouths stuffed with rags.
The leader was in his twenties, wearing black clothes, and looked to be of good quality.
The remaining few should be followers.
"Who?" Brother Jiu looked at Heishan and asked.
Heishan glanced at those people and said, "They look like Manchus, and there are calluses on their palms."
Everyone practices riding and shooting, and their palms have calluses.
Brother Ninth Brother has come to his senses, he is not stealing vegetables, he is here to steal bamboo!
This was when I saw the bows and arrows and red silk hanging in front of my house, and I got interested.
He almost laughed in anger.
There was a riot in Qianqing Palace yesterday. I thought of "killing chickens to scare monkeys", but ended up causing robberies that night. Is this a slap in the face? Or a slap in the face?
In the eyes of the old and young men in the inner city, his ninth elder brother is really not a big deal.
"Okay, let's tie them up and hand them over to the Criminal Division tomorrow for questioning for violating the imperial ban..."
Brother Ninth said.
It is true that this is the prince's palace, but now it is under the control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so naturally he can follow the rules of the palace.
Brother Jiu's mouth was sarcastic.
No matter how weightless he is, he still has the word "emperor" attached to him.
Since you dare to come, peel off your skin before leaving.
Ordinary petty theft is not a capital crime, but what about breaking the law?
violate a ban?
Brother Jiu's face drooped, he looked at Heishan and said: "Before sending to the Shenxing Department, send him to the Dutong Yamen, give him fifty lashes, and then send him to the palace. We are in short supply of eunuchs..."
This last sentence is just to scare people.
He thought that the banner men would be whipped fifty times if they broke the curfew. He didn't want to take advantage of these few, but he also wanted to bring shame to the Infantry Command Yamen.
How do you arrange for patrols?
I missed it and there was no response...
Those people on the ground were frightened.
They all live in the inner city and are well-informed. They also know that there is indeed a shortage of eunuchs in the palace.
Sometimes eunuchs were sent from the palace outside.
The leader turned over and knelt down, kowtowed to Brother Jiu, and winked, as if he had something to say.
Brother Jiu sneered and motioned to He Yuzhu to take the veil from his mouth.
"My servant Xikui has met Master Jiu, and he is obsessed with me. Please forgive me this time for the sake of my sister and brother-in-law, Master Jiu..."
The man pleaded hurriedly.
Brother Jiu heard the surname Ersheng and said, "Which family are you from?"
The surname is Xi...
Is it directly the old surname, or some old surname changed to a Han surname...
The man said: "This slave is from Zhenglan Banner, and my sister is the third successor of Xin County Prince Fujin..."
After hearing this, Brother Jiu's face was still drooping. He looked at the man and said in a bad tone, "Did Prince Xin send you to steal?"
The man shook his head hurriedly and said: "No, no, this slave was so happy after hearing that Master Jiu was so happy that he had a wrong idea.
Brother Jiu was too lazy to listen.
Okay?
We just dealt with Prince Zhuang's cheap father-in-law before, and here comes Prince Xin's brother-in-law.
Is it important that each of them is a clan elder?
According to his original intention, which was the process just now, he was sent to the Infantry Command Yamen to be whipped, and then sent to the Sentence Division for trial.
But in that case, you will have to be taught a lesson if you look back.
After all, Prince Xin is also his cousin from another branch, and he is also the prince who owns the Zhenglan Banner.
Brother Ninth's face was gloomy, but he also learned a lesson.
So what to do?
If it is handled lightly, it will set a bad precedent and lose its deterrence.
If he is strict, he will appear to be mean and unreasonable.
Brother Jiu's eyes rolled around and he looked to the east.
The eighth prince is from Zhenglan Banner...
But other than pretending to be a good person and being friendly, there is probably no good solution...
Fourth brother can’t help but have sand in his eyes...
Think about it and forget it, there is no need to drag him into the water...
Prince Xinjun’s Mansion is different from Prince Zhuang’s Mansion.
Prince Zhuang is the second generation king, with only one younger brother standing, and he has even worn the title of county prince.
There are already three generations of kings in Prince Xin, including many uncles and cousins.
Brother Ninth looked to the south.
Khan Ama always taught him that he didn’t understand human nature, so let Khan Ama handle it!
Brother Jiu frowned, stretched, and signaled He Yuzhu to gag the man. Then he looked at those people and said, "Okay, I'll give you a favor. Put aside the fifty whips for now..."
When he came out, Brother Ninth ordered Heishan: "Send directly to the Shenxing Department tomorrow morning."
He won't have to worry about how to deal with it when the time comes...
But when he returned to the main room, he asked He Yuzhu: "I have only heard that Prince Zhuang's Palace is looking for a son. Is Prince Xinjun's Palace also in need of a son?"
He Yuzhu shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it. Doesn't Prince Xin have grandchildren?"
Brother Jiu thought about what Xikui said just now, and he said that this is the brother-in-law of Prince Xin.
Prince Xin seems to have lost several wives. Is Fujin now the third or fourth successor...
That’s because the current Fujin has no son, so his natal brothers went astray...
After all, Prince Xin is not young anymore, he is in his forties.
After a lot of tossing, Brother Jiu was tired and fell asleep.

The back room is in the east room.
When Shu Shu was pushed awake for the second time, tears came out.
She glanced at the clock, it was Yinzheng three o'clock.
The little guy in my arms started to eat.
She felt that her maternal love was almost gone.
This is the third time in one night.
Jue Luo was standing by and hummed: "Don't you want to live or die if you are fed by yourself? Even the wet nurse can't tolerate it..."
Before going to bed, Jue Luo made such an arrangement and planned to let the nannies feed her at night. However, when Shu Shu heard this, she immediately became angry and cried and wanted to send several nannies away.
Jueluoshi didn't say anything at the time, but he woke her up three times a night and asked her to breastfeed by herself.
This is a tiger mother.
Shu Shu didn't want to care.
Shu Shu pulled Mrs. Bo and said coquettishly: "Ah Mou, let's divide the classes into different classes, and let a few nannies feed them at night?"
Mrs. Bo looked at her and said helplessly: "How could I have listened to you earlier? You are still fooling around..."
Shu Shu lowered her head and whispered: "That was not my original intention. I was affected by the childbirth. I was protecting the baby..."
But she also knows that her body is the most important.
If your body is really damaged, the suffering will be yours alone.
Mrs. Bo groped her back and said, "I'll let you feed the little one by yourself, and I'll let you feed the eldest brother and eldest brother by yourself. That's enough. Even if you feel sorry for the little one, you have to do what you can." "
Shu Shu nodded, not daring to be stubborn anymore.
After feeding the child, Shu Shu lay down again and fell asleep almost without stopping.
Mrs. Bo tucked her in the quilt and came out from the room.
Jue Luo was already on the kang.
The two sisters-in-law stayed with her every time.
Mrs. Bo persuaded her in a low voice: "You should be gentler. What are you doing to make her cry?"
Jueluo Shi hummed and said: "If you don't stop being honest, you still have to go through troubles. This idea comes out all at once..."
The uncle said: "Didn't you suffer this time? If you are squeamish, be more squeamish..."
Jueluo Shi pointed to the direction of the main courtyard and said: "Then we can't go back as long as we live. These two living treasures are so coquettish that they won't be able to survive in the future? I know my sister-in-law is kind, but at our age, we can't grow too long. After watching for a long time, there will always be a time when they let go and they have to stand up on their own..."
Mrs. Bo was speechless when she thought of Brother Ninth. She could only say: "Let's be optimistic, there is nothing perfect in the world."
Jueluo Shi nodded and said: "I know, but life is not just playing house, especially now that we have three children. If Ama and Enie are not reliable, that will make people worry."
Mrs. Bo didn't say much more, just said: "Although red ginseng is not as dry as ginseng, the imperial doctor said that it should be in an appropriate amount. The amount of ginseng tea you usually use is enough. You should also mix it with sea cucumbers, bird's nests, etc."
Jueluoshi thought about Shu Shu's waist and said: "After these few days, the lochia has been cleared, and it's time to ask someone to make a small piece of clothing to tighten the belly. Otherwise, there is no way to see..."

When Brother Jiu woke up the next day, it was already Chen Zheng.
Although I only slept for three hours, I felt much better because of the solid sleep.
The previously red and swollen eyes have also mostly disappeared.
It was time to sleep, so I asked He Yuzhu to prepare a hot towel and apply it.
The "thief" has been sent to the Criminal Punishment Department, and the remaining Ninth Brother is not going to interfere, since he is "grounded" anyway.
He went straight to the backyard.
Shu Shu was still asleep, so Brother Jiu crept in, took a look, and then went to the West Room.
Several children are here.
In addition to Nanny Qi, who was keeping a close eye on Ginkgo, there were also three nannies.
As for the nanny, she stayed in the enclosure, waiting until several babies were ready to be fed, and then she asked people to come over in turn.
When Brother Ninth came over, the three younger ones were also asleep.
Although they are triplets, they can be distinguished at a glance because of their different sizes.
Brother Jiu came directly to the sweet girl's place, and his heart almost melted when he saw the sleeping baby.
This is a big baby who is close to him through his belly.
Immediately, he realized something was wrong and thought about the birth order of his children.
The one who harms Shu Shu every time he punches is not the boss, but the third child!
Look at Da Gege’s bulging little face, and she is a bit bigger than her brothers. It turns out that she is not a good baby, but a naughty one!
And what's going on with this brain gate?
Looks strangely familiar...
He Yuzhu followed beside him and also looked at the three young masters. When he saw this, he whispered: "Da Gege looks so much like me..."
Brother Jiu couldn't deceive himself anymore and couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Didn’t you say that your daughter is Xiao Mu?
Where is the precious girl he is looking forward to?
He Yuzhu had already looked at the other two people and said: "The eldest brother is delicate and looks like Fujin. The second brother can't tell now..."
The ninth elder brother walked over and saw the fair and clean eldest elder brother, but his eyebrows and eyebrows were the shadow of his wife's, and he looked more well-behaved than his younger brother and younger sister.
He thought of the little bulge in his belly these days, and touched his elder brother's little fist.
As if sensing something, the elder brother also raised his little fist and touched the hand of the ninth elder brother.
Brother Jiu felt soft in his heart.
I didn't feel connected by blood before, but it seems like there is one between our hands...
