Chapter 70: I’m waiting for your occasional gain
Wuya Mansion.
The Wuya clan, who had lived in Hada for a long time, came back at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty.
Wuya Ecanli was promoted to the first rank of internal minister, and was awarded the title of baron during the reign of Emperor Taiji. He was added to the rank of first-class captain and served as an assistant leader.
At that time, the Wu Ya family owned a large mansion in the northeast corner of Gyeonggi Province, and the plaque was very impressive.
Later, E Shen's title was reduced because of the incident, and the plaque was removed at that time.
After that, even if the girls in the family entered the palace and were able to become concubines independently and take charge of the palace, there was no special plaque.
The Wuya family even rented or bought and sold some pavilions and never spent any more extravagance.
For one thing, the Wuya family had few heirs, and there was only one branch, and the other branches did not follow them to the capital.
Secondly, in addition to the empress in the palace, the current head of the family, the father of Empress De Fei, Wei Wu, has the highest position of only the fifth-rank military position.
After something happened to their ancestors, the Wuya family has always kept a low profile even though Kangxi is now treating them politely.
Wuya Yuese is the second son of Er Shen and the biological uncle of Concubine De. Now he is just an inconspicuous Si Zuo official because of his father's protection.
He happened to be working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
When Concubine De had something to tell the family, her father was in the military and it was inconvenient, so she would usually tell her uncle.
Nowadays, in the Wuya family, no matter from which angle you look at it, the most powerful one is the concubine De Fei from the first rank.
He relies not only on the emperor's favor for many years, but also on his two elder brothers and two princesses.
The eldest brother, the fourth elder brother, has grown up and has just left the palace to build a mansion. He should be the most important "nephew" among the next generation of the Wuya family.
Even if Wuya Yuese felt strange when Empress Dowager De spoke, she immediately took leave and went to Tong'an Imperial Manor in person.
Naturally, the Wu Ya family also heard many rumors about Si Age in Beijing recently.
However, Concubine De and Si Age did not speak.
No one inside or outside the palace would talk about the rumors about the emperor's heir in front of them.
Therefore, although the Wuya family is worried, they just don't know.
Back then, Wuya Ecan did too much and made many mistakes, and the lesson was right in front of him.
It's just a rumor. As long as it doesn't change the prince's image in the emperor's mind, no matter how many rumors there are, they will disappear in the blink of an eye.
Manager Zhang also warmly received Mr. Yue Se.
Wuya Yuese is here to help, not to ruin things.
After asking about the manpower and materials needed, and after dispatching everything, he asked Fourth Brother for instructions.
When Yinzhen was going to the study and rushing to the riding and shooting range, Su Peisheng asked his master in his ear.
He was stunned and then said: "Just follow the manager's list."
Wuya's family, that is, my maternal uncle, never makes his own decisions.
That is the explanation from Yonghe Palace.
What does this mean?
While practicing, Yinzhen thought about going to Yonghe Palace to pay his respects later.
At this time, the sound of whipping came from outside.
The palace people knelt on the ground: "See you, Your Majesty."
Kangxi entered the riding and shooting range with an expressionless face. He read them in order from smallest to largest, and occasionally said a few words.
At the end, I saw the eldest brother today, Yinzhen.
Kangxi: "Yinzhen, I heard that you have been very busy recently."
Yinzhen saluted like a bamboo: "If you return to Khan's Ama, you will reward the emperor's village. My son dare not slack off. He often visits the village and studies, and occasionally gets something. Compared with Khan's Ama, my son is not busy." "
"Occasionally, I get something..." Kangxi put his hands in his hands and repeated it, and then said with a smile, "Then I will wait for your income. Haha."
The emperor smiled and left, ending today's test.
Before anyone else could react, Yinzhen left first and headed to Yonghe Palace.

Baotang Courtyard.
On the second day after Lu Pheasant returned to the mansion, the amount of monthly letters was the largest.
Because the mistress hadn't returned for a long time, the whole mansion suddenly became agitated.
But Lu Pheasant was tired and impatient to deal with things.
Only two nuns from the public library were summoned.
Before she left, the cards and keys of the house were handed over to the two nuns, and ordinary things were handled according to the rules.
If there is anything that cannot be decided, someone will be sent to the Imperial Manor to ask her for advice before making a decision.
These days, except for the seasonal change, Xiao Gege asked the imperial doctor once and prescribed two doses of medicine.
The remaining Li family still lived in Huxinting, and the imperial doctor did not come frequently.
In the other courtyards, the mistress was absent, and the inevitable servants were lazing around, drinking, and gambling, all of which were secretly recorded by the two nuns.
Mrs. Liu is still making snacks and embroidering in the house.
The mistress had only been away for a few days when little Princess fell ill. Song Gege was worried and even guarded Little Gege, almost never leaving.
On the contrary, Mrs. Wu has been doing well these days and will help the two nuns with a lot of things.
Lu Pheasant: "You two have worked hard, I have a lot of things going on lately, and I will have to trouble you two to help take care of the house in the future."
"Fu Jin's words are too polite. Concubine De asked the old woman to come over, not only to listen to Fujin's words, but also to do her own thing."
Pin'er took the silver reward and sent the two nuns out.
After the two nuns took the money, they went to find Nanny Er and asked her to go out for a drink.
Lu Pheasant smiled slightly as he listened to the excitement in the corridor.
The two nuns are rushing to give you the leftovers from these days, so that you can consider giving her "eye medicine".
They are all people who serve the master, and they have the wisdom to get along with each other.
Lu Pheasant looked at the clock: "I haven't come back yet?"
Pin'er shook his head.
This is the practice of Si Age and his wife.
The master has assigned a special servant to come to Baotang Courtyard and let him know.
There is no news at this point, that is, there is no movement.
It was a little later than usual.
Lu Pheasant guessed that Xiao Liangren was just like him. Although he had returned to his own mansion, his thoughts were actually still at Tong'an Imperial Manor.
I heard that he arranged for people to find some seeds and plant them in the ground.
But unlike her, Lu Pheasant deliberately chose bad land to plant high-yielding crops, letting farmers at this time know how sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn are life-saving foods.
And the land that Fourth Brother farmed seemed to be very valuable. He chose the best land in Zhuangzi and cultivated it carefully.
Emperor Yongzheng in history was a man who was keen on farming.
At that time, there were many rice fields, wheat fields and vegetable fields in the Old Summer Palace. Even during the Qianlong period, pavilions and pavilions were built around these farmlands, which was quite wild.
Yinzhen lived in the Old Summer Palace and would go to the fields himself in his spare time.
Later posterity initially believed that the fourth prince was anxious to seize the throne and deliberately acted like a prince wandering around in the summer garden to let his brothers lower their guard and win the emperor's favor.
Now it seems that Xiaoliangren is willing to work in the fields at this age. It seems that he really likes farming.
"Send someone to ask."
During the monthly letter period, there was little food to eat, so Lu Pheasant was making arrangements for dinner.
Soon people came and went: "Back to Fujin, I went to Yonghe Palace to have dinner with Concubine De. He said he would be back later."
Lu Pheasant nodded.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the yard.
Someone ran in in a panic.
Sen'er scolded him.
After that, Pin'er opened the bead curtain and said quickly: "Fu Jin, someone from Huxin Pavilion said that Li Gege... committed suicide."
