Chapter 188: Unfilial Son (Third update, please vote for me)(1/2)
Brother Ninth's chest felt tight, but he still replied truthfully: "Hilarson hanged himself yesterday, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is vacant, and Khan Amma asked his son to act as the acting director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."
Concubine Yi paused and said after a long while: "I heard that many people were arrested in the dining room yesterday. Is this the reason? Since you are the agent of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you must remember one thing: Don't move too much in the dining room.
If you encounter Concubine De's relatives, let them go..."
That was the territory of Concubine De's natal family.
Back then, Concubine Rong took advantage of her favor and inserted relatives into her family, but she ended up in disgrace.
Brother Ninth felt it was harsh.
What's going on, Mom?
What you want to do is to protect yourself wisely. Shouldn't you think that this is the wrong time to disturb the Ministry of Internal Affairs?
When something happened to Fifth Brother, the Ministry of Internal Affairs should be contacted first. The intermediary relationship should be considered first.
Or did she already know that Fifth Brother was accidentally injured this time, and it was not Fifth Brother who was plotted by those people?
But accidental injury is also an injury!
What is the difference between plotting against the eldest brother and plotting against their brothers?
Those who dare to plot against the eldest brother will naturally dare to plot against their brothers.
He had just told Thirteenth Brother that the Forbidden City was Khan Amma's Forbidden City, not Baoyi's territory, but the empress had to ask him to get out of the way.
Brother Jiu was very confused and did not refute.
Concubine Yi was worried and continued: "As for the Guo Luoluo family, whether they are relatives or in-laws, you don't have to worry too much... If you want the new official to take office, then start from them...
There is no need to light the fire outside and affect the relationship between brothers..."
Although the four concubines in the harem have handed over the power of the palace to the crown prince, they still maintain a balance between them.
Even if there were some small quarrels and resentments when I was young, they were mostly due to the passage of time and were not life-or-death situations.
Princes don't have to be close to each other, and there is no need to offend anyone.
Yifei didn't want to break this balance.
Brother Jiu was very surprised: "But that won't bring shame on E Niang and us..."
"Eniang is the head of the first palace, and your fifth brother and you are the prince's elder brother. The dignity of our mother and son has never been in the Guo Luoluo family..."
Concubine Yi said sternly: "Now that your grandfather is carrying the flag, other relatives are still in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there are also in-laws such as the Jin family, who are bound to be attracted to you... This gap cannot be opened, otherwise it will be wrong, and it is impossible to say
I still want to push it on you..."
Brother Jiu listened carefully.
Regarding the Guo Luoluo family being held back, Brother Jiu has already experienced it.
If he sends a reliable person to him, the prosperous shop in Gulou will not suffer a loss even if he earns a fortune every day.
And Guidan...
Now that I think about it, it is simply audacious.
The Eight Banners Dutong's residence was a member of the founding noble family. He dared to frame and file a lawsuit just because he was the nephew of his favorite concubine.
There are also buying land and shops...
It was originally marketable, priceless, and very scarce.
Others had to rely on favors to charge higher prices, so he directly lowered the price to 30% to 40% using the reputation of being the prince's cousin.
E Niang did not favor her parents' family, but still put their brothers first. Brother Jiu was in a slightly better mood.
Concubine Yi remembered something, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Wei Bin's mother-in-law is also a servant in the imperial kitchen, so don't interfere in his family's affairs... Can you take this opportunity to come forward? Will you be in conflict with De?"
The concubine’s family is facing each other, let them endure it on their own..."
Brother Jiu nodded: "Well, my son knows..."
He doesn't even get used to his own maternal family, so will he get used to the Wei family?
The Bage is the Bage, and the Wei family is the Wei family.
Brother Jiu didn't think that the friendship between the Wei family and Bage would go beyond the brotherly relationship between him and Bage.
"The Money and Liang Yamen is in charge of Concubine Hui's family... There is a lot of oil and water in it. If you want to check it out, you can find out that it is wrong... But if you can, don't move. It's better not to move... The royal village's rents and gifts are recorded in the books.
Well, it’s been put into the treasury every year. If you want to catch up on the previous accounts, it’s hard to catch up. It’s not interesting to check the three or five years in front of you... The internal management office was originally managed by the emperor’s people, who named themselves the crown princess.
The prince's nanny is in charge now... This is in charge of the palace affairs, so don't interfere... The construction department belongs to the Guo Luoluo family, and there are many in-laws... If you want to make meritorious deeds, just keep an eye on that side... Anyway
You checked the palace before..."
When Concubine Yi spoke to the end, she felt a little helpless.
Brother Jiu was stunned after hearing this, his face turned red, and he was in shock: "Why didn't E Niang say anything before?"
I had previously known that my cousin was the palace manager, but I didn't expect that the construction department was within Concubine Yi's sphere of influence.
Concubine Yi glanced at him and said: "It's a mistake... If not, how could the emperor believe that E Niang was deceived?"
Brother Ninth was stunned and wanted to ask a question.
Are you really being deceived?!
If you are greedy for so many taels of silver, will you show your filial piety to Yikun Palace?
Yi Fei smiled bitterly and said: "It was the custom back then. Everyone would choose a similar place to settle their relatives, so E Niang naturally followed suit... I knew there would be some trouble among them, but I didn't expect them to be so ruthless... E Niang was in the same palace.
Concubine, what can you do? Dispose of your natal family and internal officials in a big way? You just turn a blind eye, and now you can be considered free..."
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has its own system.
There are more than fifty yamen in total, and more than 3,000 officials.
The forces are complex.
The sphere of influence occupied by the fourth concubine’s natal family is only a very small part of it.
It's not easy to occupy a territory. Who would be willing to cut off their own arms? Cut off their financial resources?
Brother Jiu was panting and couldn't calm down.
He still remembers the indifference he received from the manager in charge.
A dozen taels of gold leaves...
How dare they?!
Others don’t know that the Construction Department is Yi Fei’s territory, and neither do the rats on their line?
Are you seeing his joke?
And Khan Amarna, who uncovered the matter himself at that time, took the initiative to ask for an investigation into the palace repair work...
If there is a crack in the ground, Brother Jiu thinks he can get into it.
Concubine Yi talked about the Ministry of Internal Affairs for half an hour. Her mouth went dry as she spoke. Thinking of her previous gaffe, she lowered her eyes and said, "Eniang admits that Eniang's heart is biased. She shouldn't have expressed her anger just because she was worried about your fifth brother.
Come to you..."
Brother Jiu looked blank and kept his mouth closed, not wanting to say any insincere polite words.
It's just partiality.
But before, he refused to admit it, saying that he treated them the same as brothers.
When will it be the same?
"That was E Niang's first child. She was pregnant for ten months. Once she gave birth, she looked forward to it day and night... But when she landed, she took her to the Queen Mother to raise... The little brother next to her was taken to Zhaoxiang House, but the mother and child were also separated.
, but it’s different... Especially after being a concubine for twenty years, E Niang ranked second, surpassing the senior Concubine Rong and the emperor’s new favorite Concubine De..."
Concubine Yi said, with red eyes: "At that time, there was an uproar in the palace, saying that E Niang was trying to please the queen mother, so she gave up your fifth brother to curry favor with the Queen Mother, so she changed this position... E Niang didn't, that was E Niang's first-born son, why?
Are you willing? Later, when your fifth brother got older and the Queen Mother moved the palace, the emperor let your fifth brother live in the Chengqian Palace and give him to the imperial concubine for his upbringing. Then there was that villain who instigated your fifth brother, saying that E Niang was born.
I don’t want your fifth brother because of you and Shiyi... Because of this, your fifth brother had a quarrel with E Niang, and he didn’t come around until he was ten years old..."
When Brother Jiu heard this, he spit in his heart.
Maybe I am cruel and ruthless.
Listening to these words, I really can’t relate to them.
Maybe it was too far away, maybe he could only remember that E Niang was partial to Fifth Brother and alienated him from Eleven.
There is a knot in the heart.
Will your life be difficult if you are sent away?
Except for the prince, who wouldn’t envy the life that fifth brother lived?
Because of the Queen Mother's habit, even Khan Amma would not be able to teach this son just a lesson.
Whoever stays with E Niang becomes a sweetheart?
That’s the Thirteenth Brother, the Fourteenth Brother!
To be continued...
