In the remaining paddock, the siege is also coming to an end. Various deers croaked in the middle, and arrows flew randomly. The third elder brother did not go on stage, but stood on a high ground on horseback and looked at the procession.
Seeing that the team was well organized and the hunting was well planned, the third elder brother looked for the thirteenth elder brother in the crowd.
The thirteenth prince was wearing a golden prince uniform and stood out among the crowd. The third elder brother thought of the holy cavalry patrolling the Yongding River in a few days, and ordered the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother to accompany him.
Fourth brother is just a serious person who works hard. Nowadays, when Hedao is involved in a lawsuit, money and accounts are also involved, and he is also close to Si Age's household department.
But what about Thirteenth Brother? I don’t want to know, I’m scared when I think about it. From the summer of thirty-seventh year, when the thirteenth prince first accompanied him, the next three years were a non-stop affair.
Whenever the emperor's father goes out, he will always take his thirteenth prince with him. In the past, only he and the eldest brother were treated like this. Even the fourth and fifth brothers only followed him a few times, and they didn't say they had to follow him every time.
In the past two years, the third elder brother has not always been here. It is a bit like the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother, and they have begun to come here intermittently.
The third elder brother stuck out his tongue and licked the back teeth.
"Love the house and the bird"? Not really. Nowadays, the most favored concubines in the palace are He concubine and Wang Guiren, as well as Yifei, the old favorite concubine.
There are decent ones, including Concubine Hui. A sensitive concubine is one who never fails. That's why the emperor's father is optimistic about the thirteenth brother's ability.
The Thirteenth Prince's civil and military skills are indeed outstanding, and even the Third Prince has heard about it. The third elder brother became nervous.
The last elder brother who excelled in both civil and military studies was himself! Isn't this kind of elder brother the most suitable candidate for political affairs?
The emperor's father changed his mind and planned to give the prince his 13th elder brother, so he took him with him to teach him? The third elder brother felt that it was time for him to strive for success and he could no longer live a comfortable life in Taichang Temple.
Next year the thirteenth brother will become a young man, and he will be married, go to school, and do errands. He will catch up with them...* That night, there was a small banquet in the paddock. There was no clan or ministers, only Kangxi and a few retinue Prince.
In addition to the throne, the prince below had a double seat. The first ones in the east are the eldest elder brother and the third elder brother, and the second ones are the eighth elder brother and the tenth elder brother.
The chief ones in the west are the fourth and fifth princes, and the second ones are the thirteenth and fourteenth princes. The banquet in the evening is a whole deer banquet, including roasted venison, fried deer tongue, deer tendon and yam hot pot, braised tofu with deer blood, braised deer intestines, stir-fried deer liver, steamed deer lamb, etc.
The one that goes directly with it is deer blood wine. Brother here, his eyes are glued to the wine bottle. He has been drinking heavily in the past two years, not to mention three meals a day, which is about the same.
As a result, in the past two days, I have been drinking less wine while accompanying the emperor. Yesterday I was on guard duty, so I couldn't drink. Right now, he was greedy, looking at the deer blood wine, the wine bug started to rise.
There was just a jug placed in front of one person. The jug was long and thin, and it looked like it only cost about two taels. What was this enough for?
He glanced at the wine bottle in front of Third Brother. If the two pots are added together, it will satisfy your craving. The third elder brother sitting next to him didn't realize that his bottle of wine was being missed, but he was looking at the thirteenth elder brother diagonally across the corner.
Compared with the disgusting Fourteenth Brother, the Thirteenth Brother really has no choice in appearance and behavior. You can't suppress him, you still have to win him over and let him know how old he is.
Even if both of them give Donggong an arm, they still have to prioritize. Naturally, my elder brother is the main one, and my thirteenth brother, my younger brother, is the second.
The thirteenth elder brother noticed the third elder brother's gaze and looked back. When the third elder brother saw this, he raised his cup and smiled at the thirteenth elder brother.
Seeing this, Brother Thirteen also raised his cup, looking very respectful. In fact, he was very dissatisfied. Among the brothers, the one he didn't like was the third elder brother. He really didn't act like an elder brother. He was also scheming, so he had to be careful.
It's just that he has a city, and he doesn't show any preference on his face. The fourteenth elder brother was looking at Kangxi. The emperor's father was tall and straight, with only a short beard on his lips. He looked like he was in his forties, much younger than Prince Zhuang and Prince Xin.
Kangxi was also looking at his sons, and was attracted by the eyes of the fourteenth elder brother. Kangxi raised his eyebrows, as if asking what happened to his fourteenth brother.
The fourteenth elder brother thought for a moment, picked up the flask and stood up. When he arrived at the imperial table, he said with a smile: "Son, are you pouring wine for Khan Ama?" Kangxi hummed softly: "I have nothing to do to show my courtesy. I can't drink this wine." Be practical!" The fourteenth elder brother said very honestly: "Khan Ama, my son doesn't want to be surrounded by palms. He is wasting his time and saliva, and he is not sure about his own archery. Can my son follow Khan Ama tomorrow? My son wants to see Khan Ama. Ma Shooting Hunt!" Kangxi was very curious and asked: "Aren't you looking forward to palming the circumference yourself? How come it's only one day and it's enough?" The fourteenth elder brother complained: "The palm circumference is boring. My son is still young. I don't want to palm the circumference. Surrounded, I want to learn archery from Khan Amma, and in the future I will shoot a fifteen-strength bow like Khan Amma!" Kangxi was in a good mood after hearing this, and his eyes were full of joy, and he said: "Be patient , practice every day and add half a barrel of arrows, lay out the foundation well, and then talk about other things." When he was young, he could indeed control the string with a fifteen-strength bow, but it didn't last long. He could only shoot three arrows at a time, and any more shots would miss the target.
When was that? He glanced at his sons who were sitting, and his eyes fell on the table of the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother.
Probably when they were as old as the fourth and fifth elder brothers. Among the princes, only the eldest and the third can barely catch up with him, and a thirteenth brother will probably be added in the future.
Although the princes were not as good as their masters, they still had their own strengths and did not embarrass the Khan.
The fourteenth elder brother was pouring wine beside him and said: "Well, well, my son must be down-to-earth and lay a solid foundation. He will be Khan's great general and king and open up territory for Khan's Arma!" At the moment, the Eight Banners The morals were rotten, and the martial arts among the bannermen and clan members was declining, which was exactly what Kangxi was worried about.
Seeing that the fourteenth elder brother had this ambition, Kangxi felt happy and praised: "Okay, I will wait and see that my general is invincible." The fourteenth elder brother was also secretly happy that he would not have to look forward to growing up in the future. .
The imperial father is not short of sons who have grown up, but he is short of sons who have not grown up. so-called
"Entertaining relatives with colorful clothes", that's it, right? Huh? Brother Nine is so naive, is that intentional? *Capital City, Ninth Prince's Mansion.
"Sneeze!" Brother Jiu was soaking his feet and sneezed heavily. Seeing this, Shu Shu hurriedly handed him a towel and said, "Did you catch a cold?" Brother Jiu shook his head and said, "No, he wasn't outside the house, the yamen, or the carriage." Shu Shu listened. Yes, but I feel uneasy.
It was hot at home, at the yamen, and on the carriage. Even if I didn't go anywhere else, it would be hot and cold several times during the day.
Shu Shu arrived at the door, called Ging Guo and said, "Ask the kitchen to boil two bowls of ginger tea, make it stronger." Ging Guo went down to prepare.
Brother Ninth heard it in the room and said: "I'm fine, and I don't have any symptoms. Maybe someone is talking about me." Shu Shu said softly: "I just stayed with me. I stayed in the greenhouse with my ten brothers and sisters at noon. After a while, I was sweating all over, I guess I blew it, and now my temples hurt." After talking in the morning, the two sisters had lunch and went to the greenhouse to pick vegetables and look at flowers.
There are several pots of camellias that are in bloom. Shu Shu asked people to bring them to Shi Fujin so that everyone can enjoy them tomorrow.
After hearing this, Brother Jiu quickly wiped his feet and reached out to touch Shu Shu's forehead. Fortunately, there was no fever.
"Are there any other symptoms?" Ninth Brother asked with concern: "Catching cold from the wind is no joke!" Shu Shu rubbed his neck and said, "There's something wrong, and my shoulders are a little sore." Ninth Brother said : "You caught the wind. You were really careless. Doctor Lao Jiang has repeatedly told you that your bone seams are still open in the past six months. You must keep warm this winter." Shu Shu's shoulders are indeed a little stiff, and the position around the shoulders is not right. Very comfortable.
She leaned on the kang and said, "Isn't there some plaster at home? I'll help me apply two pairs later." Brother Jiu helped her rub her shoulders and asked, "Only the shoulders and neck? What about the waist? Does it hurt?" Shu Shu shook his head and said: "No, there is no wind collar on my neck. It's because of the wind. It's not a problem." Brother Jiu said: "I'll ask someone to pick up Dr. Jiang again tomorrow. , I will check your pulse and prescribe two recipes." Shu Shu shook his head and said: "I can't spare the time tomorrow, let's do it the day after tomorrow, let me take a look, and let's make up for it together." Three-nine tonic for one winter, there will be nothing for the next year. Sickness.
Jinjiu
"Filling the winter" is also the normal health practice of Xungui. There are still a few days before Jinjiu, so it's time to prepare.
Brother Ninth Brother was rubbing his neck for her. Hearing this, he couldn't help but frown and complained: "Do you think Old Shi Fujin is stupid?" Shu Shu turned her head, looked at him and said, "Why do you say that again, Brother Ten?" She just has a simpler temper, and I understand it in my heart." Brother Jiu curled his lips and said: "What I'm talking about is not her temper, but about tomorrow's treat. You said that other people's treat are all legitimate reasons, including weddings, funerals, children and moving. Something like that, she can hold a banquet, collect money from members, and make a lot of money. What do you think she is after? She will also hold a 'treasure appraisal meeting'. When others take a fancy to it, will she give it away or not? Can't receive it. If you don't say the courtesy, but you still pay it back, what else is this but a big fool?" Shu Shu said: "Sisters-in-law are all sensible, and there is no one who likes to take advantage." Gifts must be given.
It's just that if you really see something new from Shifujin, who can take it for nothing? It all comes and goes.
Brother Ninth Brother still disapproved and said: "Old Ten is not at home. It is the time when one more thing is worse than one less thing, so we can't live in peace." Shu Shu couldn't listen any more, pinched Ninth Brother's waist and said "According to what I said, if I'm not in Beijing in the future, I will have to lock the door. I can't entertain guests, and I can't go out." Brother Jiu grabbed her hand and said, "You follow She is different. You don’t insist on treating guests even if you have nothing to do, and you still give such an unusual reason to treat guests." Shu Shu felt her head hurt, and said: "I really think it’s inappropriate? It’s just a girl getting together to have a meal. That's all, there's no one else..." Brother Jiu said softly: "We know that Lao Shi Fujin has no other intentions, but what do others think..." *It's the 1st, ho ho, rolling around asking for a guaranteed monthly ticket.
