Chapter 1426 Choice (asking for a guaranteed monthly ticket)
After dinner, the Holy Master left Tongzhou Palace and returned directly to Haidian.
Brother Ninth came in a carriage, which was just behind Kangxi's carriage and the prince's carriage.
The fourth elder brother, the twelfth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother ride horses.
Set off at noon, which is the hottest time.
Brother Ninth is fine in the carriage.
His carriage carriage is very spacious, made of bamboo, and has a heat-proof sun visor on the outside.
Brother Ninth leaned forward and said: "Fourth brother, twelfth brother, thirteenth brother, you should also get in the car, so as not to get too hot."
The twelfth elder brother looked at the fourth elder brother.
The thirteenth elder brother also looked at the fourth elder brother.
Brother Si looked at the sweat on his forehead.
He is a person who sweats easily, and he wears very rigid clothes and collared clothes, which makes him feel stuffy.
The fourth elder brother wanted to insist, but when he saw that the twelfth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother both had red cheeks, he nodded, got off the horse, and took his two younger brothers into the carriage.
As soon as they got into the car, several people noticed something different.
In this carriage, not only is it not stuffy, it's also a bit cool.
But there was no ice basin anywhere.
Brother Si looked down and reached out to touch the floor of the carriage. Sure enough, it was cold to his hands.
"Put in the ice?" Brother Si asked.
Brother Jiu felt proud and said: "I must be smart. The place where the charcoal is placed is replaced by ice cubes in winter. It can last for up to three hours."
This came to mind when the couple went to the city to attend a wedding a few days ago.
The carriage can be heated and cooled.
Similar principle.
Brother Jiu tried it yesterday and memorized the time.
Today is the second time.
Brother Thirteen also reached out to touch the floor, with a surprise, and said: "Brother Ninth, can the Ministry of Internal Affairs still make this carriage? I want to order one too, for travel convenience..."
Brother Jiu said: "It can be made, but this is not part of the regulations. You have to pay for it yourself."
The thirteenth elder brother said: "As long as you can make it, I will make one and ask someone to send the money back."
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you have to find a house outside. You live in the palace, and carriages cannot enter the palace."
This carriage looks big and expensive, so of course it can't just be left outside.
Brother Thirteen nodded and said, "Then I'll ask someone outside Di'anmen to ask if there is a yard that I want to rent."
The ninth elder brother remembered that the twelfth elder brother's mother-in-law had prepared a wedding gift for him, a house and two shops.
He asked the Thirteenth Brother: "You are already engaged and will be getting married in the second half of the year. Didn't your mother-in-law prepare a gift for you?"
After hearing this, Brother Thirteen felt a little uncomfortable and said, "I'm ready, but they asked for too much, and there was nothing I could do, so I sent them back."
"ha?"
Brother Jiu was surprised and said: "Why are they so thick-skinned? It's one thing to give you gifts, but it's another thing to ask for a favor. Why do they mix it up? Asking them to be filial is just showing respect, but they dare to negotiate terms?"
As for what he was asking for, he had a rough guess.
What else can there be, is that after the disciples retreated from the imperial kitchen and the military camp, they had no future.
It's just that asking for help at this time has the intention of teasing Brother Thirteenth.
It seems that they are quite trusting and really regard themselves as their elders and rely on their elders to show off their talents.
The fourth elder brother was listening, and his face didn’t look good either.
Is this to control the prince?
Minbi's biological father was an ordinary man in armor and had no future, but his grandfather and great-grandfather were both high-ranking officials in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and his uncle was the commander of the military camp.
Concubine Min entered the palace as a concubine as her uncle's daughter.
Many children of the Zhang family followed Zhan Guang and occupied a place in the imperial kitchen.
But starting from the year before last, the Zhang family, like the Wuya family and the Wei family, had their children removed from the imperial dining room.
But the situation at that time was fine, they were all flat calls.
The Zhang family was not greatly affected.
As a result, starting last year, the descendants of the Qi family were transferred out of the military camp again.
Zhang Bin's uncle resigned from his position as a counselor and was given the grace of a second-class bodyguard.
However, the foreign guards could not reach the imperial court and were just gatekeepers. They were not the same as the previous guards.
If the Zhang family is neither good nor bad, then they can count on Thirteenth Brother to help them.
However, the Thirteenth Prince knows how far away the family is and will not go to the Ninth Prince for the sake of his maternal family.
He is also close to the imperial court, and knows that the emperor's father has been critical of his relatives in the past two years. The Zhang family can maintain the status quo, which is already much better than other families, so there is no need to be greedy.
Otherwise, if you mess around at this time, it will not end well.
The Thirteenth Brother said: "Everyone has selfish motives. Let them go. They can take advantage of others and be soft-spoken. It's good to be like this now."
The twelfth elder brother was listening, nodded and said: "Save trouble."
Here, he has received the shop and house replaced by Ninth Brother.
He really wanted to give this to his maternal family, and then the two would be cleared, but thinking about the noble man, he still gave up this idea.
Because he was raised by Aunt Su Ma, the nobles were polite in front of their son and were not as close as ordinary mothers and children.
If the twelfth elder brother breaks off contact with his maternal family, it will hurt the noble man's face.
The fourth elder brother reminded the ninth elder brother: "Just use it now, and don't use it when you are in a state of depression. Then the cold and the hot will easily cause illness."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Well, I only used it today when I went on a long trip. It doesn't matter whether I use it on weekdays or not."
It is nearly seventy miles from Tongzhou to Haidian Changchun Garden.
We set off at noon and it took us two and a half hours to arrive at Changchun Garden.
When he got off the bus, Brother Jiu's waist was straightened.
This day's round trip covers more than a hundred miles.
Even though the roads are imperial roads, which are smoother than ordinary official roads, they are still tiring.
But for now, I still have to send the Holy Master back to the garden.
When Kangxi entered the garden, the ninth elder brother looked at the fourth elder brother, the twelfth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother and said: "Go back to the city now? It's time to go..."
No matter how late it is, the city gate will fall, and the palace gate will also fall.
Those who passed through the capital just now are not going back, and there is nothing they can do about going back now.
The Holy Driver's patrol team has not dispersed yet, and it is not easy for them to leave in the middle.
"How about you guys stay here all night and come back tomorrow?"
Brother Jiu suggested: "The three houses have only been vacant for a few days. They don't need to be cleaned and can be occupied directly."
Fourth Brother shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's go back to the city."
In this case, the brothers did not delay and mounted their horses to return to the city.
Brother Jiu then stretched himself and returned to Beiwusuo.
Shu Shu knew that Shengjia would return today and had not had dinner yet, waiting for Brother Jiu to come back.
When Brother Ninth came back, he was exhausted physically and mentally. He washed his face and then lay on the kang and rubbed his waist.
Seeing this, Shu Shu sat next to him and stretched out her hand to massage him.
Brother Jiu grumbled: "It's the same with Khan Ama. If you want to transport someone temporarily, you can't think of it two days in advance. In that case, you don't have to be so tired if you go for one day and come back for one day."
Shu Shu said: "Is it for the weaving factory? I was praised?"
Brother Jiu turned his head, with a proud face, and said with a "haha" smile: "You guessed it, it's really rare. Khan Ama praised me in front of the prince today, saying that he valued his economic ability, and the prince also praised me and said
He is not as good at reading people as Khan Amma, haha... This is an admission that he underestimated me before..."
Shu Shu smiled and said: "You should be proud of me. I have not been idle in the past few years, and I have achieved outstanding political achievements every year."
Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu and said, "When it comes to merit, you should be ranked first."
Shu Shu looked at Brother Ninth and said, "It would be great if I could be a wife and a noble husband. In that case, I would also like to take credit, but unfortunately I can't. So what's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. There's no need to distinguish it so clearly."
"
Brother Jiu remembered the meeting between the two before their wedding, and joked: "Why is it that the one biting you is yours, and what's mine is yours, but what's yours is no longer mine?"
Shu Shu pointed to the back room and said, "Whether it's mine or yours, it belongs to the three of them, so there's no need to worry about it."
Brother Jiu heard this and hummed: "What do you mean? Before the three of them, we were just two people with two surnames. But with the three of them, we became a family? How can it be calculated like this? We have agreed that we will be together now."
In your heart, you must come first before your children."
Shu Shu didn't answer and asked instead: "In my heart, am I behind Fengsheng and the others?"
Brother Jiu shook his head hurriedly and said: "How can that be possible? We want to grow old together. Parents, children, and children can only accompany us for half of the journey. The two of us can walk the whole journey..."
