The fifth house in the north, the main house in the backyard.
Shu Shu was lying on her stomach, holding a jade Ruyi in her hand.
Not to mention, touching this in summer is really comfortable and brings a cooling effect.
If you can get a big piece of jade, you can make it into a pillow or something, it will definitely be comfortable to hold.
Shu Shu was very moved and said to her uncle: "I'll ask someone to buy some jade materials later, which can be used to make pillows and mats..."
Mrs. Bo shook her head and said: "Jade is cold in nature and is not suitable for direct use."
Women should avoid being exposed to the cold, and Jiu Age is too weak to be exposed to the cold.
Therefore, Shu Shu and the others have no use for the bamboo mats that are commonly used nowadays. They only use a straw-woven silk mat.
Shu Shu thought about the old coarse cloth sheets from later generations. She could look for them and try that one.
Although Mrs. Bo rarely goes out, she heard Shu Shu mention the third elder brother's "misbehavior in front of the emperor" and said to Shu Shu: "Don't be nagging about the ninth elder brother. The ninth elder brother is as innocent as a heart. Even if he makes a mistake occasionally, he will never go out." It’s not a big mistake. If it’s too formal, the relationship between father and son will become estranged.”
Shu Shu rolled over, resting his head on Madam Bo's lap, and said with a smile: "If it were someone else's elders, I would definitely want to warn him to be careful in his words and deeds, and not to follow the example of Sanbeile, but Ah Mou did the opposite. OK."
Mrs. Bo held a fan in her hand and fanned her, saying: "If you behave yourself, the distance will be far away. The emperor is not a fool, and the ninth elder brother is not scheming. Then he really becomes a monarch and his ministers. They should deal with each other and there should be no room for mistakes." ; There is still room between father and son."
Shu Shu nodded and said: "I don't advise you. With Master Jiu's current status, it's better to be careful than to be careful. His age is here, no matter how lenient the emperor or the prince's elder brother is to him, then Just a few years of freedom, and there will be many more years of being a minister."
Mrs. Bo thought for a moment and said, "Three Belle being punished at this time may not be a bad thing for our family."
"Huh?"
Shu Shu was surprised, sat up and looked at Mrs. Bo.
I knew the future situation and the decline of the Dong E clan, so I thought so. I didn't expect Mrs. Bo to have such insight.
Mrs. Bo patted Shu Shu's head with a banana fan and said: "What's so surprising? In the royal family, a child is valued by his mother, and a mother is valued by her son. The three bells are placed in front of each other, and they can be used by both civil and military officials. The biological mother She is still the most senior Concubine Rong..."
Shu Shu smiled and said: "In addition to the prince, isn't there also Prince Zhi? What's going on outside about a 'great thousand years old'..."
Mrs. Bo hummed and said: "The prince was taught by the emperor. The sword is in the box and the whetstone is not that easy to make. It is not easy for the eldest brother to save himself, let alone succeed. When the time comes, Those who went up were either the polished prince, or the third and fourth elder brothers following behind..."
Shu Shu couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Mrs. Bo and said: "You said it so well..."
That's right.
After the second deposed prince, the most popular ones are the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother.
Then the fourth elder brother went to practice Buddhism, and the third elder brother emerged, and he was a serious and prosperous person for several years.
"The brothers in the palace have high ambitions but low ambitions. If Sanbeile continues to have a high title, he may have another idea, and it will also affect our family..."
The uncle said: "The punishment over there is heavier now, and everyone will live in peace in the future."
Shu Shu nodded.
If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.
She didn't have the kindness to look forward to it.
After a while, there was movement outside.
Brother Jiu is back. He knew Shu Shu was in the backyard, so he came directly.
Shu Shu stood up, called Brother Jiu to come in and sit down, put a cup of sour plum soup into his hand, and said: "I was talking to Ah Mou about Sanbeile. Please tell me, has there been a turn for the better today? Is it time?" Let go?"
Brother Jiu took two sips of sour plum soup and said, "There is a big turning point. I guess I should be released tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
"What's the punishment, Jiangbeizi?" Shu Shu asked.
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "I can't guess. The clan's plan is Gebeile. Who knows whether Khan Ama is a real Gebeile or a descendant of Beile? Something happened in the palace. Concubine Rong's mother was demoted to concubine, and Zhongcui Palace was closed. Now, Third Brother, Khan Ama should be more tolerant and not punish harshly..."
Shu Shu and Mrs. Bo looked at each other.
The couple had just finished talking about Concubine Rong's qualifications, but it turned out that Concubine Rong was no longer a concubine, but a concubine.
Although the third elder brother is an adult knighted prince, mother and son are mother and son, and the rank of his biological mother will still affect him.
Especially in the eyes of the clan and nobles, they still value the old Manchu customs.
Shu Shu said: "We are already twenty-two today, and it is only a few days since the Eighteenth Brother's 'Capture Zhou'. If there is such a change in the palace, it will be difficult to prepare a banquet."
Brother Ninth nodded and said, "It's indeed inconvenient, but Sister-in-law Five should come over."
Shu Shu thought for a while and thought that the fifth blessing was one month earlier than the fourth blessing. She was conceived in the winter of last year and saw seven months.
She said: "Your Majesty will probably send Peilan out to spread the word, so that Fifth Sister-in-law won't have to worry about it."
Brother Jiu thought for a while and said: "Khan Amma has returned to the palace. According to his old habit, in order not to disturb the people, he should close the city gate before returning. You can go to the garden to meet the empress and tell her about what's going on outside. News, please don’t mess with the news, don’t make any more taboos.”
In the past, Shu Shu could not go directly to Changchun Garden to pay his respects, because the access control in the garden was no different than that in the palace.
If the Holy Master is not in the garden, there will be nothing to avoid.
Now that the application has been confirmed, Shu Shu did not delay and said: "Then I will go now..."
You need to tell her, otherwise, Yifei won't know anything about this place, and she will prepare as usual for the "week-grabbing" at the end of the month.
In that case, in the eyes of others, it would appear that Concubine Yi was cold and cold, and Kangxi would not be happy even if he couldn't help it.
Brother Jiu said: "Don't worry, let He Yuzhu go deliver the message first. The guards over there have to report to the empress."
With that said, he sent He Yuzhu to take the first step.
The couple also said goodbye to Madam Uncle and returned to the main room.
In Shu Shu's place, the ninth elder brother told everyone about the news compiled today, and everyone visited the third elder brother, who wrote an apology letter and so on.
Shu Shu listened carefully and took note of it in her mind.
After she was fully dressed, the couple came out together.
Without taking a detour, the two of them went directly to Xiaodongmen.
He Yuzhu was already waiting and had asked someone to go to Huichun Villa to deliver the message.
After a while, Peilan hurried over, greeted the two of them, and then said to Shu Shu: "Fu Jin came just in time. The master is worried about the fifth Fujin and is planning to order the slave to find Fujin..."
After registering in the book at the door, Shu Shu took Walnut and Xiaosong into Changchun Garden.
The small east gate is not far or close to Huichun Villa, just a few hundred steps away.
Concubine Yi was already impatient. Seeing Shu Shu come in, she couldn't wait to ask: "What's going on outside?"
Is there any other bad news about the Guo Luoluo family?
then what?
The doors and windows are open here, and there are only Peilan, Walnut, and Xiaosong in the house.
Shu Shu did not speak in a hurry.
Upon seeing this, Peilan asked Walnut and Xiaosong to retreat outside, leaving the house to their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Shu Shu then whispered: "It's not news from outside, it's news from the palace..."
She talked about how Concubine Rong was demoted to the throne yesterday, how the third elder brother was sent to the clan residence yesterday morning, and how the Ma family and Wuya family were inspected the afternoon before yesterday.
Concubine Yi was stunned and speechless for a long time.
She thought about the emperor coming over for dinner yesterday and looking very worried. It turned out that he wanted to deal with Concubine Rong.
This is indeed a big deal.
Concubine Yi rubbed her temples and said: "I have lived so long that I can see everything rare. The emperor has always been lenient to the harem. I didn't expect that there are still concubines who have been demoted in this dynasty..."
Dong's previous one doesn't count.
It was Dong who was the first to harm others and almost forced Min Bin to death.
Even so, the emperor thought that Dong had given birth to an imperial daughter, so he left some room for it and just lifted the ban.
Shu Shu said: "Master Jiu was afraid that the mother-in-law would not know anything about this in the garden, so he sent his daughter-in-law to come over and ask about the matter of 'catching Zhou' from the eighteenth brother..."
Concubine Yi said: "At this time, I can't care about anything else. Let's just be honest."
Having said this, she took Shu Shu's hand and whispered: "Tell Lao Jiu, no matter what the relationship with Third Brother was in the past, you have to pretend to be closer now. The Emperor values affection and does not want to see sibling strangers... "
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Well, my daughter-in-law will tell Master Jiu properly."
Yi Fei thought for a while and then said: "You don't have to go to Wubeile Mansion. I'll just send Peilan there tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
The "Zhuzhou Banquet" is cancelled, and there must be a name for it to the outside world.
Most likely it was Concubine Yi who suffered from heatstroke and felt unwell.
Shu Shu nodded, took out a palm-sized brocade box from his sleeves, held it up with both hands and said, "This is what Master Jiu sent in. It should have sent back one hundred thousand taels directly, but Master Nine left fifty thousand." , He said he would let the empress rest..."
Yi Fei pushed it back and said, "I don't want it. Just keep what I gave to you. I will leave a share for Lao Wu when I get back."
Shu Shu said: "Even if the empress wants to separate herself, she can't do it now. When will the eighteenth younger brother and sister come in, you can do it again..."
Concubine Yi wanted to say something more, but Shu Shu had already listened and whispered: "This time Master Jiu has more than 300,000 taels of silver left, and his daughter-in-law has also earned 40,000 taels. The children have enough money to divide their families." …”
After hearing this, Concubine Yi no longer refused.
The money came too fast.
Brother Jiu and Shu Shu were generous and loose. Who knew whether they would disperse later, so they had better keep them for next time.
She looked at Shu Shu and warned: "Don't tell the outside world that you have earned so much, only tell half of it, and be careful, so as not to come back to borrow money."
After hearing this, Shu Shu couldn't help but smile and said: "Jiu Ye is very tight. People from Waiba Road come to borrow money without even a single coin. Relatives who come around the corner come to help the urgent rather than the poor. They still have to live in a shop. As a guarantee, don’t worry. When it comes to money, Master Jiu is generous, but it doesn’t matter who he is, others can’t easily take advantage of him..."
