Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.
It's already time to turn on the lamp, and it's time to use it later.
Hearing that several princes were entering the palace at this time, Kangxi was a little surprised and nodded: "Pass it on!"
Liang Jiugong responded.
Kangxi took a sip of barley tea.
today……
Isn't it Tong Zhai's housewarming party?
I heard that the prince's brother, Longkodo, who opened the mansion, sent people to deliver the post.
The eldest brother, the third brother and the fourth brother didn't go?
Thinking of this possibility, Kangxi couldn't help but frown.
Even if the princes are not close to Longkodo, they are elders after all, so what if they socialize with each other?
He wanted to see what reason his sons had for rejecting the Tong family's banquet.
At this time, Liang Jiugong had finished delivering the message, and the eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother came in one after another.
The room was brightly lit, and the looks of the three people also fell in Kangxi's eyes.
Each and every one of them was holding their breath and looking cautious, as if they had a guilty conscience.
When he saw the bruise on Brother Si's chin, Kangxi's face turned dark.
He looked at the eldest elder brother and the third elder brother, and became angry and said: "Who made a move? For what reason? Even if the fourth elder brother is at fault, it is not your turn to take action as long as I am here!"
What's the point of beating up a brother?
Isn’t this because there are too few jokes in Beijing?
Even if the eldest elder brother and the third elder brother are the elder brothers, it won't work.
The eldest brother shook his head hurriedly and said: "Khan Ama, not my sons..."
The third elder brother also said: "The fourth elder brother was protecting his son, so he received a punch from Long Keduo..."
Kangxi was stunned and said, "What on earth is going on?"
On the way here, the three of them had a brief exchange and knew each other well.
The eldest brother said: "Master Long's concubine offended Prince Fujin and was punished. Master Long mistakenly thought that it was her wife who ordered her to kill his wife. When the nine brothers and sisters saw this, they stopped him. Master Long was angry and wanted to punish him. The ninth younger brother and sister took action, and the sons caught up and stopped them."
The third elder brother added from the side: "I don't know how Mr. Long made a promise to that concubine. It sounds like he is determined to marry Fengsheng and Niguzhu as long as he is born, regardless of gender. That concubine is very happy." With a big belly, she went to the living room and called the ninth younger sister 'mother-in-law'. The ninth younger sister asked Mrs. Long to control her. Mrs. Long was timid and did not dare to speak. The concubine said something dirty, so the ninth younger sister asked someone to give her a slap in the face... "
Brother Si pursed his lips and said nothing.
There was no need to say anything more, both of them had said everything they needed to say.
Kangxi's face turned darker.
Longkodo lived in the imperial city. Of course he knew who Longkodo's concubine was, Li Si'er who came from Longkodo's father-in-law.
There is no ethical thing!
That’s my concubine’s mother-in-law!
The eldest brother frowned and said: "Master Long is crazy and attacks the brothers. After all, he is the elder. My son doesn't want him to make a big mistake, so he has someone tie him up."
The third elder brother said with a bit of worry: "Khan Ama, Mr. Long wants to kill his wife in front of all the princes Fujin, treating human life as a trivial matter. This is also scary, because the nine younger brothers and sisters stopped him, The last kick missed, but the first one was a solid kick. Looking at the situation, Mrs. Long is afraid that it is not good."
Kangxi became more and more angry.
How could a small first-class guard slip away both the prince and prince Fujin with just one post?
That was because everyone was filial to him, the Khan Ama, and would respect the Tong family. As a result, Longkodo was so unsatisfied.
This was a slap in the face of the emperor.
It's really a compliment.
"Have you had anyone look at it?"
Kangxi held back his anger and asked.
The Tong brothers all have violent tempers, but that is only to the outside world, and they never expected to have a bad habit of attacking women.
Not to mention that the original wife was not someone else, but Longkodo's direct cousin.
Is this lust?
The third elder brother sighed and said, "I sent people to the Tai Hospital to call for help. My sons were still unconscious when they came out. There were also three or four inches of gashes on their faces. They looked scary. I'm afraid they won't be able to walk out in the future." .”
Speaking of this, he remembered something and said: "Looking at Mr. Long's actions, he is used to taking action. Now... should we check the population of the Tong family..."
According to the "Laws of the Qing Dynasty", killing slaves must also be punished.
Longkodo looked cruel, who knew whether there was a human life in his hands?
Kangxi was silent for a moment, and did not answer the third elder brother's words. Instead, he looked at the fourth elder brother and said, "Is it true? Does it hurt?"
Because the fist rubbed against the chin, the lips and teeth also rubbed due to external force, and the corners of the mouth looked broken.
Brother Si hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's not true, it doesn't hurt."
Kangxi's face was as dark as water.
Even if the common people are fighting, they all know how to hit someone rather than slap someone in the face.
Longkodo was wild and rebellious. He was rude to the princes and even punched them directly.
Do you think the emperor is dead? !
He was extremely annoyed, but he was always suspicious.
Even if the three elder brothers in front of him came together to talk about this matter, the eldest brother was upright and the fourth brother could be trusted, but he still had doubts and said: "Okay, how could Longkodo involve Fengsheng and Nigu?" On Zhu?"
"Baby marriage" is not popular in the Eight Banners. Most of them are marriages between family members or close family members.
However, the Ninth Prince's Mansion has no contact with the Tong family, and it is not a relationship that can lead to marriage.
Besides, the marriage between the emperor's grandson's elder brother and the emperor's grandson Princess is also a state matter and cannot be decided by the orders of the parents.
The eldest brother couldn't think of the reason.
The Eight Banners only look at age and not seniority when talking about relatives, but those are distant relatives and in-laws.
The Tong family is the grandmother's natal family and the aunt's natal family of the princes. It is a serious uncle's family and uncle's family, and the blood is relatively close.
According to the current Eight Banners' promotion of Confucianism, for such close relatives, children must be related to each other based on seniority.
Otherwise, they will be despised by the Han people as barbarian bad habits that are rude and disrespectful.
Regardless of seniority, how could a concubine with an unclean background have the nerve to challenge the prince's elder brother and princess when her birth mother was here?
The third elder brother thought of the Dong family shop mentioned by Long Keduo, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Maybe he saw the money of the ninth elder brother's family. In the past six months, there have been rumors outside, saying that the land in Xiaotangshan, the ninth elder brother made a lot of money." I have paid several million taels of silver, and I guess Lord Long is serious about it. He seems to have a hard time, and he mentioned to his son before that he wanted to take over Dong Dianbang's family's imperial city shop..."
Kangxi thought that he had given Longkodo a mansion with five entrances. As a result, the first thing Longkodo did when he arrived in Beijing was to evict his neighbors and expand it to five entrances and three spans. The Duke's mansion was about this size.
Those two places were official houses rented by the Dong family for many years.
"Did Longko drink too much? Is he unable to do anything after drinking?"
Kangxi then asked.
The eldest brother shook his head and said "Gululu", which was a burst of intestinal rumbling in response to the situation.
He didn't know that Longkodo had this kind of virtue.
When I was working in the palace in my early years, I looked arrogant, but I never had any dealings with him.
Today is a unique event that gives everyone some insights.
Seeing that the eldest brother didn't say anything, the third elder brother said, "The banquet hasn't started yet. My son seems to be interested in the concubine. The girl who sent the message is making nonsense, saying that 'the lady punished the grandma'. He cares about it." If there is chaos, people will do stupid things and shout to be beaten and killed..."
Kangxi felt a headache.
He promoted the Tong family also out of filial piety.
His parents were not closely related, his biological mother died young, and all his admiration was pinned on his two uncles.
As a result, first Tong Guowei interfered in palace affairs, and then Longkodo was arrogant and despised the prince.
Kangxi's eyes were cold, which was true from the beginning.
If the Tong family was really afraid of the imperial power, they would not interfere in palace affairs.
What did I get in exchange for being so tolerant? !
Kangxi rubbed his temples and ordered: "Longkodo disrespected the prince and brought it to the imperial family for discussion!"
The eldest brother agreed.
The third elder brother's expression remained unchanged, but he was a little surprised in his heart.
Huh?
Why didn't you get to the bottom of it?
Fahai and the palace people around Dong E were all outside, but the emperor had no intention of asking any more questions.
This can be regarded as a false alarm for everyone. Did this person just hit him?
The third elder brother was thinking in his mind, with a look of shame on his face, and said: "Khan Ama, my son hasn't apologized yet. At that time, Longkoduo punched the fourth elder brother, followed by another punch. His son stopped him, and he was speechless for a moment. Gu Shang restrained his strength, it seems that he hurt his arm..."
Kangxi looked at the third elder brother with a gentle expression and said: "He is crazy and rebellious, and you protect your younger brother. What's wrong with you? Yes, you are acting like an elder brother."
The third elder brother had a look of admiration on his face, but his heart was bubbling with excitement.
Choose correctly.
You will never fall into a trap again!
After Kangxi praised the third elder brother, he looked at the fourth elder brother and frowned: "Even if we divide the elder and the younger, there are still monarchs and ministers in front. If he attacks, why don't you know how to fight back?"
The fourth elder brother's face showed a hint of loneliness, his eyelids were drooped, he looked at the ground, and whispered: "My son thought Master Long was unintentional, but he didn't expect that he would take action again. If the third brother hadn't stopped him, I'm afraid he would have I have to be an unfilial person..."
The third elder brother was nearby. He remembered the scene at that time and said with fear on his face: "Master Long went crazy. He didn't care whether it was light or heavy. He just reached for his head. If this happens, I don't dare to think about the consequences!"
Kangxi tried his best to calm himself down.
In the past two years, he was worried that the older brothers would bully the younger brothers. The palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh. He personally raised the first few princes, and the father-son relationship was the deepest.
But the elder brother behind him is also his own flesh and blood, and the old Ama also has sympathy for the weak.
But I didn't expect that when I wasn't being bullied by my own people, there was bullying from outside.
"Snapped!"
He couldn't help it anymore and slapped it on the table.
This precedent cannot be set, otherwise when the throne changes and the princes become clan members, they will be bullied...
