Things are good things. How can the things that Prince Gong plays with be bad?
The nobles of the Manchu Qing Dynasty all loved to play finger-wrestling. This was a custom passed down from the past when they conquered the world on horseback. Although these nobles no longer use horses to fight, the custom has remained.
This is a thumb ring carved from topaz. After years of playing with it, it has a layer of moist patina on it, which makes it look like something extraordinary at first glance.
Although the item is good, there is only one item, and Prince Gong just said that he would like to exchange money to buy wine, which means that it will be difficult for Prince Gong to come up with a second gift item!
How sad, the Three Treasures felt as sad as a dead rabbit or a fox. The dignified Prince Gong gave gifts to a lower-class servant, and the gifts were not even enough. He really had nothing!
The Sanbao turned his head and pretended to cough, suppressing the pain in his eye sockets, and finally held back his tears. When he turned his head again, he still had a cynical look on his face!
"Hey... it's a thumbs-up! Brother Yisiha, just accept it..."
Isiha shook his head and said with a smile, "Oh, how embarrassing this is!"
"What do you mean? It's useless for me to want this thing! Ever since I joined the new imperial forest army, I have been playing with foreign guns. I haven't touched bows and arrows for many years. This finger pull is for nothing for me. You can take it Take it away..."
Isiha was just waiting for these words, so he took the topaz finger ring and put it on his finger!
The Sanbao smiled and said to Yi Xin, "Your Majesty, I would like to rest here for a while and look at the scenery, but you have to understand that we also have missions..." He took out his pocket watch and took a look, "Foreigners, it's half an hour! The slave can only It’s possible to do this!”
Yixin cupped his hands and smiled and said, "I appreciate it, I appreciate it... half an hour will do, half an hour will do!"
The thin Yi Xin, wearing a half-worn black satin cotton-padded jacket, without even a decent fur, with a yellow satin hanging around her neck to cover the iron chain, stood alone next to the carriage and looked up at the tall tower of Yongding Gate.
There were dead branches and leaves on the mottled urn city, and the paintings on the three-story gate tower with double eaves were peeled off. The northwest wind blew a burst of loess and blew through the city gate opening!
People coming and going trotted away with their necks hunched, and many people looked at the escorting people from a distance. Some people may have guessed Yi Xin's identity, but no one dared to take even half a step forward at this moment!
What a familiar picture. I used to see it often but never thought about it, but now it seems that I can't get enough of it. God knows if I can see it again in the rest of my life!
Yi Xin actually just wants to wait for someone, but he doesn't know who he is waiting for. Maybe he still fantasizes that after so many years of being in power, there will always be some conscientious officials to give him a gift, right?
But time passed by, and there were many people and merchants coming and going in the city gate, but no one came towards him!
Zai Cheng said cautiously to the side, "Amma... don't wait. Now those officials are flattering themselves in the Forbidden City to show their loyalty? No one will come..."
"Hey...I know, I know..."
Half an hour passed quickly. Such a short time was not enough for the children on the ice of the moat to compete in a round of ice carts. Looking at the hands on the pocket watch, the three treasures said apologetically, "Your Majesty... let's go! I'm on my shoulder." It's so narrow that it really won't last long..."
"Oh... ok, ok... thank you, little brother. I've never taken care of your family before. I'm so sorry... let's go!"
The coachman picked up his whip, and the three hundred guards were ready to mount their horses. The group was about to leave the capital, but at this moment, there was a heavy sound of horse hooves coming from the city gate!
"Wait a moment...wait a moment...walk slowly..."
Yi Xin's body was shaken, and one of his feet was on the wooden bench where he got into the car. He couldn't move now, and turned his head to look north!
Three strong horses came rushing in. The first one was roaring at his neck, followed by two servants who always followed him!
"Lao Liu...Sixth brother, wait for me...brother will send you..."
Tears welled up in Yi Xin's eyes, and he couldn't wipe them away with the back of his hand. It turned out that in the end, it was his fifth brother who came to see him off. Only now did he know that he was a blood relative!
Yi Pei rushed out of the urn city, and the soldiers at the gate quickly knelt down and bowed to the ground. The fifth master jumped off his horse and strode to Yi Xin, grabbed his hand and said, "Old Liu... I will give you a ride. Don't blame me for coming late. I just came out of the palace, and I haven’t finished the banquet yet!”
"It's... such a cold weather, why don't you even have a fur coat? How can you survive being so skinny!"
Yi Pei took off his wolf-skin cloak and put it on Yi Xin with his backhand, "Those dog slaves! The things they ransacked were cleaner than the ones licked by dogs! Can't you keep two cloaks?"
"A bunch of bastards! When he sees someone losing power, he will step on him harder than anyone else!"
With a quick glance, Yi Pei noticed that there was a bright yellow spot on the thumb of Yisiha's left hand. The fifth master didn't know anything and hadn't seen anything before. With a flash of his mind, he understood what was going on!
He was about to have an attack at that moment, and the evil fire in his stomach was burning upwards!
Yi Xin quickly used words to pull him away, "Fifth brother, fifth brother! You should take care of yourself in the capital. Those bastards in Xishan camp can still listen to you!"
"Don't tire yourself, these princes in the capital are the vitality of our Eight Banners!"
"Brother, I am unfilial. Now I have the opportunity to guard my father's tomb. It is also my fate... Brother, don't worry!"
The two brothers cherished each other, and finally Yi Pei picked up two packages from the horse, "Here are some wine and meat, you can keep them for the road..."
"You...come here!" Yi Pei waved to Yisiha and the three treasures, and the two people quickly ran over to greet them with a smile!
"Greetings to the Fifth Master! Fifth Master, please give your orders..."
Yi Pei took out a roll of banknotes wrapped with rubber bands from his cuffs. It seemed to be more than two thousand yuan, and he threw it directly into Yi Siha's hand!
"This money is from me to reward you for drinking and eating meat on the road. You guys are playing tricks with me one by one. I am also a charlatan. Why don't you understand what's going on?"
"Even if Prince Gong is imprisoned, he is still a bloodline of the Aixinjueluo family, and you cannot humiliate him!"
"The food and wine that should be given to Prince Gong must not be less. If you dare to deduct it, I will never forgive you!"
Isiha has already received two thousand silver dollars for food expenses, so what else can he say and hurry up and send it up!
There is no banquet that lasts, and farewells will eventually have to be parted. Zai Chun carried the two bags of food and got into his mother's car. Zai Cheng opened the packages as soon as he entered the car!
Fujin burst into tears when he looked at the golden melon seeds, silver dollars, and banknotes that were included in the food and wine.
"My child... remember the kindness of your fifth uncle! A friend in need is a friend indeed..."
The escorting team finally left. Yi Pei stood outside the city gate and stared blankly until he saw the convoy turning into black dots in the distance. Then he turned around and prepared to return to the city!
"Go...go back to the palace! Damn it, you dare to humiliate my sixth brother, I will make you walk around without food!"
