After leaving the small east gate, the ninth elder brother and the third elder brother looked at each other.
In order to rush on the road, they didn't eat lunch, and they were very hungry now.
The Ninth Elder Brother's place is okay, since the Tenth Elder Brother is here, he can go there to eat directly; the Third Elder Brother's place is a bit pitiful.
Although the fifth elder brother currently lives in Haidian, he should still be in the Lifanyuan Yamen at this point.
As for the Nine Gege Department, there is a difference in age, so the brother and sister are really not familiar with each other.
As for Beiyuan, not to mention that although the third elder brother is the grandson of the Queen Mother, he does not have that dignity.
The third elder brother touched his belly, feeling a little pitiful. Do you want to go to Haidian town to eat?
Brother Jiu couldn't bear it when he saw him like this, and said, "How about Third Brother go to Lao Shi's place and have a bite!"
The third elder brother immediately said: "Hey, then brother will lend you all."
The brothers went to Beishuo.
Brother Ninth remembered a rule, "A guest does not bring a guest." Well, luckily he did not count as a guest.
Here at Liusuo, Ten Prince and Shi Fujin were not here, and the couple went to the horse racing field.
Climbing in the morning, fishing in the morning and horseback riding in the afternoon.
The young couple has a packed schedule.
But Brother Jiu didn't show up, and directly ordered the concierge and eunuch: "Ask the kitchen to prepare food. Eat whatever is available, and hurry up!"
After the instructions were finished, he and his third brother arrived at the front hall.
The eunuch and eunuch sent people to the horse farm and ordered the dining room to prepare food.
The third elder brother said sourly: "I see that you and Lao Shi have a close friendship, just like me."
Brother Jiu said without shame: "It's not my own home, so why shouldn't it be someone else's home?"
The third elder brother said: "That is to say, the tenth brother and sister have honest personalities. If you look at other families, you will be the most annoying brother-in-law!"
The ninth elder brother snorted lightly and said: "Look at what you said, you still think that my younger brother's popularity is as bad as yours. Not to mention other places, the eldest brother's family, the fourth brother's family, the fifth brother's family, the seventh brother's family, which family I can't mix in A meal? How can you compare yourself, are you shabby or not? "
The third elder brother had a toothache and said, "Okay, what are you asking me for? Am I missing a meal?"
Brother Jiu said with a hint of arrogance: "Don't feel bad, my brother is unique in his popularity, not everyone is like this..."
The third elder brother curled his lips. It had only been a few years. Did he forget it too quickly?
Who was it that people hated dogs back then?
Fortunately, the popularity is just for borrowing.
It's all because of Dong E's intelligence, otherwise no one except Lao Wu and Lao Ten would care to talk to Brother Ninth.
The Royal Horse Farm is in the northwest of the North Garden. Before the food in the dining room was ready, the tenth prince came back.
"Ninth brother, third brother..."
Brother Ten's steps were a little hurried.
The third elder brother nodded, wondering if he could still call someone like this?
Regardless of age?
The tenth elder brother asked the ninth elder brother with concern: "This is almost uncorrected. Why hasn't the ninth elder brother eaten? Can his stomach bear it?"
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I ate pork jerky on the road this morning. I was very hungry..."
At this time, the dining room also brought food, including ready-made red date cakes, gold and silver steamed buns, and seaweed and egg drop soup, eight dishes.
When the tenth prince saw it, he was very dissatisfied and reprimanded the kitchen steward: "I don't care about the master's things, so I'm fooling your ninth master with the leftovers? Isn't there still noodles? You can't spread the egg pancakes without the bottom? Can't you make pancakes?" Do you know how to bake? And that dish, the soy sauce bones were also from the morning, and you actually used them to make up for it?"
The tenth elder brother was really annoyed. If the ninth elder brother hadn't stopped him, he would have slapped him on the spot.
Brother Jiu said: "What are you talking about? It's what I ordered. I can't wait impatiently, so I can go ahead with what's ready..."
Brother Ten was persuaded to stop, but he didn't have a good look towards the kitchen manager. He only said: "Master wants to save trouble, which is not an excuse for you to fool me. I will give you half a year's salary and rice. If you do this next time, you will be kicked out directly..." "

In Qingxi Bookstore, father and daughter are sitting opposite each other.
It was different from what Kangxi expected.
After Princess Rongxian greeted her, she did not directly ask about Zhongcui Palace, but asked about the emperor's father's daily life.
Kangxi said: "Everything is fine, but you have worked hard to come out at this time."
It was a warm night outside the customs, and the ice and snow had not yet melted when Princess Rongxian set out.
Princess Rongxian shook her head and said: "It's not hard. I think that when I return to Beijing, I will see Khan Ama and the imperial grandmother. My daughter is only happy..."
At this point, she paused and said: "In Bahrain, the daughter is the wife of the consort and the wife of the two children, but in the capital, she is the daughter of Khan Amma and the granddaughter of the royal grandmother..."
Prince Consort...
Kangxi thought of Tuxie Tuhan of Khalkha and Karaqin's consort, and felt a little blocked. He said, "Are you still respectful, my consort? Even though you are married to Bahrain, you are still my daughter, and your dignity cannot be insulted!" "
Those two bastards, one of them won the throne of Khan, and they didn't want to have a husband and a wife, but to accept Fujin and unite with the big families of the Tuxie Tu tribe to rectify the Tu Xie Tu tribe.
The Tuxie Tu tribe is already the tribe with the largest population and the largest territory among the three tribes of Khalkha.
He still wants to straighten things out, what does he want to do?
There is also the prince-in-law of the Karaqin tribe, who is as stupid as a pig.
The Kalaqin tribe is so close to the capital and has a court presence, so he can do the stupid thing of imprisoning the princess and treat him as the emperor dead.
Rong Xian's brother-in-law was the grandson of the eldest princess, a bloodline of the Empress Dowager, and a cousin-nephew of Kangxi, but he could not kiss his daughter.
Princess Rongxian smiled and said: "The prince-in-law was chosen by Khan Amma. He was raised by his great-aunt. He is the most honest person."
Kangxi thought of the current situation in Bahrain. The eldest princess passed away and Princess Rongxian lost her first-level elders, but her mother-in-law was still there.
Bahrain Taifujin is either the aunt of the Tenth Prince, the eldest sister of Queen Xiaozhao and Concubine Wenxi.
Now it is the consort's eldest brother who is attacking the title.
Although the Princess Palace was built in Bahrain, it cannot be seen when looking up.
That Bahrain Taifujin is a man who loves to work hard.
In the early years before he came to power, the Empress Dowager chose several princesses to raise her in the palace, and later almost all of them left the palace.
Everyone got married separately, but Bahrain Taifujin came here and became the Mongolian princess.
"Can your mother-in-law and sister-in-law worry less? Don't be too soft-tempered..."
Kangxi said.
Princess Rongxian couldn't help but laugh. She really didn't expect that the emperor would ask about the relationship between mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and sister-in-law.
She said: "Don't worry, Tai Fujin is a sensible person, and he has always been polite and approachable to his daughter. My sister-in-law is also respectful to her daughter on weekdays, and she has never encumbered her."
The princess's eldest sister-in-law, the Princess of Bahrain County, is also the eldest daughter. She is the daughter of Beizi Zhangtai, the nephew of the Prince of Anhe County.
Kangxi nodded and said: "That's good. Although it's a matter of elder and younger, respect is irreversible. My daughter wants to have everything she wants, not to be a little daughter-in-law!"
He is the king of a country and takes care of everything. He did not pay attention to these in his early years.
In the harem, it is different from outside.
When the queens were there, they either served the empress dowager, or they managed the harem as imperial concubines. They were not considered mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but only respectful.
However, after the princes became adults, Prince Fujin married into the palace one after another, and Kangxi also saw the diversity of his mother-in-law.
There are good mothers-in-law like Hui Fei who are as close as mother and daughter to their daughter-in-law, there are cold mothers-in-law like De Fei who are cold and indifferent to their daughter-in-law as if they were outsiders, there are evil mothers-in-law like Concubine Rong who are critical and mean and get involved in her son's backyard, and there are Concubine Yi treated her daughter-in-law like a good mother-in-law who coaxed her children.
Not to mention other places, the number of good and bad mothers-in-law in the palace was mixed, and Kangxi was worried about his daughters.
The princess was born into a noble family, but if her temperament is too lenient and she is used to being scolded by others, it is not impossible.
Princess Rongxian saw the emperor's uneasiness and felt very worried.
Even though she was nearly thirty years old and had two children, she was still a worried daughter in the eyes of the emperor's father.
It seems that Khan Amma is still the Khan Amma, the Khan Amma who values his children very seriously.
But……
Princess Rongxian looked at Kangxi's appearance.
However, is Khan Ama too thin?
Princess Rongxian expressed concern: "Khan Ama's income has been reduced since last year when his daughter left the capital."
Of course Kangxi was also aware of his changes in recent years.
He smiled heartily and said: "I picked up the riding and shooting and exercised for half an hour every morning. My whole body felt comfortable. In the past few years, I indulged in food and ate too much. The imperial doctor said that I am just right now..."
After hearing this, Princess Rongxian felt relieved and said, "It turns out that's the reason. No wonder Khan Ama looks better."
Kangxi snorted softly and said: "You can't survive if you don't nourish your Qi and your body. You don't know that your brothers, now they are older, are not as obedient and filial as they were when they were children. Either one is a bastard or the other is causing trouble. They are all evil obstacles, especially It’s the third elder brother who has been stupid for the past two years..."
He knew that when his daughter came back, the people she would miss the most, besides him, were Concubine Rong and her third elder brother.
At Concubine Rong's place, he was still hesitating, but at Third Brother's place, there was nothing to hide.
He talked about how the third elder brother volunteered to be the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs after the ninth elder brother was impeached in April last year, and the series of incidents that followed. In addition, the ninth elder brother shared the dividends, and the third elder brother jumped out to make a fuss, and finally went to the emperor to play. Drunken madness.
"I almost got mad at him! The younger brother below has the right to come to me and criticize his favoritism. What qualifications does the third elder brother have? I have favored the first few in these years, and he and the elder brother are the same. When he was first appointed king of the county, he separated from his elder brother. What did he do? He beat his brother and his brother without repentance. He got sick when it came to money. I really regret that I didn't beat him twice when I was a child to correct this problem. …”
When Kangxi mentioned the third elder brother, he really got angry.
Not to mention the poor relationship with the brothers, but in the Qi family, the third elder brother also has a lot of problems.
If a concubine dies young, if it is normal, he should make it clear to his birth mother to avoid any disagreement between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law; if it is abnormal, he should also investigate and preserve his flesh and blood.
As a result, housework becomes a blur.
The daughter of Sanfu Jinxunnoble was selected from thousands of people earlier. She served her elders thoughtfully and intelligently, but in the end, she was trained by the mother and son, and she also followed her down.
Princess Rongxian was stunned. She didn't expect that the third elder brother, who was always timid, would actually roar in front of the emperor. This was really drunk and cowardly.
Also, does his cleverness appear on his face?
The title was reduced in the previous year, but I still don't have a long memory.
The emperor's father likes to see brothers, friends and brothers respectfully.
He actually took advantage of the situation and added insult to injury to plot against Ninth Prince's head of the Internal Affairs Bureau?
Put your calculations and thoughts in front of the emperor.
No wonder Khan Amma thought he was stupid.
Princess Rongxian sighed and said: "Brother Ninth has a gentle temper and does not hold grudges. My daughter saw their brothers being so warm just now. How could she have imagined that there had been so much right and wrong..."
Kangxi nodded and said: "His temperament is like that of a child. He can't stand anger. He will have an attack when he is angry. Once he has an attack, it will be over. The third elder brother is not without merit. Although he has made many mistakes, he can also change what he can change later. Yes, only being stingy and greedy for money is engraved in my bones and cannot be changed."
Princess Rongxian said: "Khan Ama, don't pay attention to him from now on. He is already in his twenties. He is good or bad. Let him suffer by himself. How can he still worry about it for the rest of his life? If you have that time, how painful will it be for you?" These little brothers don’t want to be angry with these big guys.”
Kangxi said helplessly: "I also want to let go, but who can make me feel relieved?"
Princess Rongxian was sitting on a chair by the Kang. After hearing this, she got up and knelt down, lying on Kangxi's knees.
Kangxi stopped talking and looked down at Princess Rongxian.
"Khan Ama, your daughter is unfilial and has put you in a difficult situation..."
Princess Rongxian choked up and said: "Khan Amma has always been fair and just, and only treated the harem concubines favorably and rarely punished them. E Niang must have done something stupid and made a big mistake, which made Khan Amma have to deal with it." , but you still have to take care of the dignity of your daughter and your third elder brother, and cover it up on your behalf..."
