Chapter 240: Isn’t it easy to cause trouble?
"Again another imperial mansion? The area has doubled compared to before?"
The eldest brother stood up immediately.
Nalan Mingzhu's hand holding the teacup on the side shook.
The eldest brother has never been able to see the point clearly.
He even immediately ordered the guards: "Go and investigate the situation of the New Imperial Mansion immediately. Come and report immediately!"
Nalan Kuifang added: "Yes. Let's see if they have planted any new rice varieties..."
Soon he received an elbow from his brother on the side.
"Ouch."
Nalan Mingzhu didn't even bother to give his younger son a look. He stood up and said, "Eldest brother, did you know that in addition to the prince and you, the emperor asked you to participate in the promotion regulations, did the fourth brother also have some discounts?"
The eldest brother suddenly had an idea: "I remembered that when Khan Ama summoned us that day, the fourth brother had already been hiding in the Nuan Pavilion. There is no guarantee that he would also be cheated."
"He has such a huge appetite that he dares to ask for territory as big as Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan!"
Nalan Mingzhu thought to himself: "In my opinion, it may not be that Fourth Brother wants it himself."
The eldest brother frowned: "Sir, you actually speak for the fourth brother?"
"Based on the eldest brother's understanding of the fourth brother, he didn't even say anything about it after he found out that we had taken the rice seeds from Tong'an Imperial Village. Do you think he would directly ask for two places?"
If it were the eldest brother himself, his eyes would only be on the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. Naturally, it was impossible for him to look at the vast wastelands of the southwest, northeast, northwest, etc.
But once the emperor gave it to someone else, the eldest brother would inevitably feel uncomfortable: "If people's hearts are not enough, a snake swallows an elephant. Who knows what he did secretly?"
Nalan Mingzhu reminded: "Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan are desolate and not worth mentioning. No matter how big the imperial village is, even the princes will be enfeoffed in the future, but the fourth elder brother is ahead of schedule."
"Eldest Brother, the most important thing right now is that the Emperor mentioned that if Fourth Brother does well, he can then take charge of the promotion of high-yielding crops across the country. Neither you nor the Prince have this point."
"What do you mean? Is Khan Amma asking me to listen to my fourth brother's words?"
Nalan Mingzhu took another dose of medicine: "More than that. The purpose of Huangzhuang is breeding. This means that the emperor has no intention of asking Si Age to hand over the hybrid rice in his hands."
The eldest brother was confused: "According to Ming Xiang's intention, this decree is actually so beneficial to the fourth brother!"
Nalan Mingzhu sighed: "Maybe the emperor is quite satisfied with Si Age's disaster relief trip to Shanxi."
"It must be the old fox Fuca Mazi." The eldest brother walked around, "It's a pity that Prime Minister Ming was impeached before and is now unable to confront the Minister of Household Affairs."
Nalan Kui expressed his anger.
Nalan Mingzhu just bowed and said: "It's the old minister who is incompetent."
The eldest brother waved his hand: "That's all. Anyway, Khan Ama just said that if the fourth brother can handle it, then let him handle it if he can't handle it."
It's not easy to get something done, but it's not easy to make trouble?
After seeing the eldest brother off, Nalan Kuexu couldn't help but said: "Amma, when the eldest brother knew what the fourth prince had done, the first thing he did was not to reflect on him for not caring about disaster relief and other matters. Instead, he blamed us for not helping him enough. big."
"Is such a prince really worthy of our continued support?"
Nalan Mingzhu had a straight face, drank Longjing and said: "I have said before that the eldest brother's advantage lies in the army, not in the court."
"Only a master who is not good at political skills has a place for us. Next year will be the time for the big brother to show his talents."
"Besides, if we withdraw at this time, with my elder brother's temperament, do you think it is possible for us to escape unscathed?"
Nalan Kui said: "With Amma's talent, I will definitely not be able to stop you."
Nalan Mingzhu put down the cold tea: "Yes, yes, but what about next, who should we choose?"
"You don't want to choose the fourth prince, right?"
Nalan Kuixu did not deny it: "The fourth prince used to be inconspicuous, but now he seems to be humble and down-to-earth. His vision, strategy, means, mind, and structure are all lacking. Isn't this the best choice?"
"The fourth prince is very good, but there is someone behind him. Are we going to fight with the Tong Jia family and the Wu Ya family? Can you bear to be inferior to them?"
Nalan Kuifang pouted: "I don't want it!"
Nalan Mingzhu made the final decision: "There is no need to mention this matter again."
"Kui Xu, what do you think of the fourth prince's promotion in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan?"
Nalan Kui was stunned for a moment: "My son has been working in Huguang and Huguang before, and he hasn't thought about it yet..."
"Yungui, Sichuan and Huguang are close together, but you have never considered it. It can be seen that even if you want to be by the fourth prince's side, he is afraid that he will not want you."
Nalan Kuexu's face suddenly turned red.
"What if I let you cause trouble?"
Nalan Kuexu quickly raised his head, his eyes showing shock: "Amma, this is a high-yielding crop, related to people's livelihood."
"Things cannot be limited. Things can be done well, but the credit can belong to others. Think about it slowly, and let me know when you think about it."
Leaving behind her homework, Nalan Mingzhu leaves.
Nalan Kuifang stepped forward and said, "Brother, if you can't think of it, why don't I go and take the lead for you?"
Nalan Kuexu said with a cold face: "You are not allowed to go. No matter what you want to do, you are not allowed to interfere in this matter! Do you hear me?"
"Then what do I do?"
"If you can't win Princess Shushen's heart, then think hard about how to get married to the next princess."
Nalan Kuifang jumped to his feet: "Najueluo Shushen is about to go to Guihua City with his Amma, am I going to chase him too?"
Nalan Kuexu raised his feet and walked away: "It's better for you to chase him than to look after the outer room."

Xiangling County, Pingyang Prefecture, Shanxi Province.
Fucha Maqi was sitting in the tent, looking in the direction of Sijiu City with a melancholy expression on his face.
The accompanying officials came in: "Sir, is there something going on in the capital?"
Ma Qi mentioned the information received.
The official was happy: "Sir Brother got the job of promoting high-yielding crops. This is a great thing."
"He is now working in the Ministry of Household Affairs, which is also good news for our Ministry of Household Affairs. Why is Master Shangshu worried?"
Ma Qi said: "I'm not worried about the household department."
"I just feel that Fourth Brother is a little aggrieved."
The official was confused: "Didn't you say that he only mentioned Yunnan and Guizhou at first? But Long live the Lord also added Sichuan to him."
He also gave away Dahuangzhuang and gave him the right to follow up. How else can he not feel aggrieved?
Ma Qi: "The emperor is well aware that Yunnan and Guizhou are desolate and the land is barren. Although Sichuan has Tianfu, there is not much land for farming. Fourth brother, he is in trouble!"
"Besides, the prince and eldest brother were the ones who issued the imperial edict from the court, but the emperor chose the prince after his wedding and secretly sent it to his home. No one knew about it, how desolate it was..."
The official's expression was very complicated for a moment. Could it be that Lord Shangshu was bribed by Brother Si's bag of potato starch?
Originally, he was not cold-blooded towards his fourth elder brother.
Why are you suddenly defending him like your own nephew?
Fourth elder brother, do you know that you are the Minister of the Ministry of Finance?
