Chapter 1565 The Emperor’s Heart (Walling for monthly votes)
Brother Ninth's face looked a little strange.
When he was a child, he heard the story about Emperor Shizu doting on Empress Xiaoxian, but children didn't like to hear this and didn't take it to heart.
When he gets older, he thinks it's a joke when he thinks about the so-called "single pet" and not the only one.
Exclusively favored?
You must know that Prince Rong, known as the "first son", was not yet one month old, and then he gave birth to Prince Gong.
Behind Prince Gong, there are three princes.
The water content of this single pet is also too much.
Therefore, it is nonsense to say that Emperor Shizu was saddened by the death of Empress Xiaoxian and abandoned the throne to become a monk in Mount Wutai.
There are no two days in the sky and no two kings in the country.
If there really is a reclusive "late emperor" here, can the life of the court be so peaceful?
Kangxi saw the troubled look on his face and frowned: "Why, you don't want to go?"
When a man is born, he should broaden his horizons. How can he just think about dawdling?
Brother Jiu shook his head hurriedly and said: "No, no, this is the grace given by Khan Amma. It's not too late for my son to be happy. My son is thinking about how to offer lamps then..."
He is not stupid, so why would he ask if there are any substitute monks in Mount Wutai?
I can only talk about my own errands.
If Shengjia had used other excuses to go to Mount Wutai to pay his respects, the result would have been Emperor Shizu's dream...
Emperor Shizu's life sacrifice is on the 30th day of the first lunar month, and his death sacrifice is on the seventh day of the first lunar month. The emperor plans to set off at the end of the month and arrive at Mount Wutai in early February.
Khan Amma was a little filial to Emperor Shizu, but not much...
Kangxi actually listened.
He is familiar with the three religions and also understands the beautiful vision of offering lamps.
During the thirty-eighth tour to the south, the Queen Mother took all her female relatives to offer lamps along the way.
Lighting lamps for the living is a symbol of blessing; lighting lamps for the deceased is a symbol of respect and mourning.
He said: "Go back and tell the factory to have the copper craftsmen rush to make 108 lotus lanterns. I want to offer the lanterns in Mount Wutai."
Brother Ninth took note of it and planned to send someone back to the palace in the afternoon to deliver the message.
If we wait until after the Lantern Festival for the Yamen to open printing, time will be too hasty.
Kangxi looked at Brother Jiu and said: "In the past two years, your house has been busy with greenhouse vegetables. There have been several new vegetables. It's just that the Dongzi vegetables are against the weather. They are planting vegetables in spring and harvesting in summer. Looking back at the supply of seasonal vegetables in the imperial dining room,
You also remember to ask someone to make adjustments, and don’t let others fool you all the time.”
This is talking about peppers, persimmons, and peanuts.
The Ninth Prince's Mansion had served peanut sprouts earlier, and they were more refreshing than soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts.
Brother Ninth nodded honestly.
In fact, he was not convinced!
Who keeps fooling around?
He obviously took the initiative to add spring and winter vegetables, but instead of praising them, he raked them down!
He felt that this was a lesson learned from the past. From now on, he would only praise his children, and he could never do this without having kind words and only scolding them.
Kangxi thought of the discomfort he felt when worshiping his ancestors on New Year's Eve, and thought of Le Fengming, an official who collected ancient prescriptions.
He decided to find an opportunity to summon Le Fengming to see how many prescriptions he had collected and how many of them were about paralysis.
The reason why he summoned the ninth elder brother today was to express his gratitude for the incident in Mount Wutai. After he had finished speaking, Kangxi asked the ninth elder brother to kneel down.
Ma Qing remained silent the whole time, somewhat understanding the emperor's intention.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs will soon have a new manager, and the emperor seems to have begun to move the ninth prince away from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
From the looks of it, it doesn't look like he is dissatisfied with Brother Nine.
Does that mean it has another purpose?
Household Department?
There are currently two princes walking around in the Ministry of Household Affairs, but according to the rules of the previous dynasty, the princes have to rotate in the Ministry of Houses. The fourth elder brother has been in the Ministry of Household Affairs for several years...

After leaving Qingxi Bookstore, Brother Jiu left Changchun Garden and returned to Beiliu School.
When he passed the east gate of the North Garden, his pace slowed down.
The Queen Mother didn't come here today. If she came, he would definitely go to say hello and find out what was going on.
Shu Shu's family still lives in Beiwu House.
This is a house that we are familiar with. No one else has lived in the new yard since then, and it has been kept clean.
When Brother Ninth came back, Shu Shu was drawing a bow and shooting arrows.
The Chinese New Year was full of fish and meat, and her waist was thicker. She didn't want to be bored in the house all the time, but she didn't want to run around, so she took out her bow and arrows and practiced archery with Xiao Song.
Xiao Song was thinking about smashing ice to catch fish, so he followed him.
She also knew that her wedding was at the end of the year and she would have to go out then. It was hard to say when she would return to Fujin to work as an errand.
Just like Xiaochun, it is early to come back as an errand in the past two years.
If he is like Walnut, he may not be able to return to Fujin as an errand.
Xiao Song has been with Shu Shu since he was six years old. To be honest, the master and servant spend more time together than with the rest of the family.
At such a close distance, Shu Shu's accuracy was unparalleled.
What little Song praised was not Shu Shu's accuracy, but the finger on Shu Shu's hand.
The new thumb ring on Shu Shu's hand is an ivory thumb ring made by Komatsu himself. One side is engraved with "Fu" and the other side is engraved with "Shou", which means longevity and longevity. It is a New Year gift prepared by Komatsu.
Shu Shu likes it very much and feels it is just right to use it.
Xiaosong said happily: "From now on, I will prepare a thumb ring for Fujin every year. Fujin will use it every day and treat it as a slave."
Shu Shu rolled her eyes at her and said, "It seems like we have to stay far apart. The front and back yards are just a few steps away."
Xiaosong felt that it was different.
There is an example of Xiao Chun at the front. When you go out, you are out. When you come in again, it is a New Year and a holiday. Please say hello.
Shu Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "I didn't go out until the end of the year. Isn't it too early to feel uncomfortable now?"
Xiaosong's nose felt sore and his eyes were wet as he said, "But I can't bear to leave Fujin..."
Shu Shu said: "I can't bear to let you go either. When Fengsheng and the others are three or four years old, I still expect you to come in and become a martial arts master!"
After hearing this, Xiao Song immediately became energetic and said: "Little brother and little princess are three years old, and they will be four next year. At what age do they become enlightened?"
Shu Shu thought about when she was a child, she didn't pick up a small bow until she was five or six years old.
She didn't have a layman to guide an expert, so she just said: "You can ask Uncle Hei later and ask him how old it is to educate the children."
If you really want to talk about it, among the guards and soldiers of the Prince's Mansion, Chunlin's force value ranks first.
Whether it's horseback riding or archery, Chunlin is very good at it.
This is because famous teachers give birth to great disciples.
Although Heishan is no longer on duty at the Prince's Mansion, Shu Shu is also thinking about him because he is close to the water and the tower.
Komatsu wrote it down carefully.
Brother Jiu watched the whole process, folded his arms, snorted coldly, and looked at Xiaosong with an evil look.
One ring a year?!
Pooh!
Put them all away!
A girl in her twenties is still a child, and she knows how to be clingy in front of Fujin?
Shu Shu and Xiao Song were alerted, and then they discovered that Brother Nine was back.
Xiaosong took two steps back and stood behind Shu Shu.
Shu Shu smiled and said: "I'm back, have you seen your mother-in-law?"
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "I see, the empress said that the first month of the year is cold, so I am not in a hurry to go over to say hello. I will ask you to come over next month..."
The couple talked and went back to the main room.
It wasn't until Brother Jiu took off his mask and took the handkerchief handed over by Shu Shu to wipe his hands that he realized he had been interrupted.
He said with a straight face: "Chun Lin is good, why don't you find him a job under the flag?"
When the time comes, take the black girl with you and go away.
Shu Shu pointed at his head and said, "I don't plan to go out anymore? I don't have anyone behind me, so I can rest assured?"
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "Aren't there Cao Shun, Erhe and the others?"
Gingguo brought milk tea, and Shu Shu poured him a bowl without paying any attention to him.
Brother Ninth felt bored.
He also knew that he had taken advantage and got Chun Lin as a bodyguard through Fujin's light.
Erhe and Fu Qing are both noble sons, and they have mixed seniority in the prince's palace. The only person they can really use for a long time, except for Cao Shun and Gui Yuan, is Chunlin.
Seeing that his expression softened, Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu and said, "Are you being lenient to yourself and strict to others?"
Brother Jiu drank half a bowl of milk tea and said, "Is there any? Why don't you know?"
Shu Shu said: "I am also kind to the people around me. What did I say? I will reward you with me and make me look good. But when I come in front of my girl, I will lose my face. I said that I am
It’s not unkind…”
When Brother Jiu heard this, he also felt that he was being unkind.
He argued: "But my kindness to my slaves is different from your kindness to my slaves. I see that you treat a few girls a lot more, and you don't treat them like slaves..."
Shu Shu said: "They have been working with me since they were a few years old. After more than ten years of friendship, if you still treat them like ordinary girls, you must be a very hard-hearted person..."
In fact, Brother Jiu's feeling is correct.
Shu Shu is indeed very indulgent to a few girls.
Although except for Xiaosong, Xiaochun and Xiaotang were one year older than her, she looked at these people as if they were children and was willing to be their backer to make their lives easier and more comfortable.
It’s not easy for women.
She lives a happy life and is happy for the people around her to live well too.
Brother Jiu listened and sighed and said: "I am not as good as you. You have four girls around you. Except for one who is disobedient, the remaining three are loyal. I have eight companions and four little eunuchs."
, now apart from He Yuzhu, everyone else is also ordinary."
Shu Shu said: "What I said, I will cry out for Sun Jin and Li Yin, but don't say this in front of them..."
Of these two Haha Pearl eunuchs, one is with Brother Ninth and runs errands for Brother Ninth; the other is in the mansion and will be the housekeeper from now on.
The former is smart and well-informed; the latter can do accounting and now manages the front accounting room and study room.
Brother Jiu said with a bit of pride: "Xiao Lizi's abacus was taught by my father, I just make do with it..."
After talking about the people around him, he thought of business and mentioned the matter of meeting your Majesty today.
When Shu Shu heard that Shengjia was lucky enough to visit Mount Wutai at the end of the month, she became curious and asked, "Does Shengjia go to Mount Wutai in the old age?"
Brother Jiu thought for a while and said: "I remember going there once in the thirty-sixth year. Wasn't it a great victory for the imperial court? It was a place to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings. I heard that in the early years, the Empress Dowager even visited Mount Wutai, as if she was trying to regain Taiwan.
after……"
After hearing this, Shu Shu also remembered the rumor that Shunzhi became a monk.
The Holy Master was lucky enough to be in Mount Wutai, and he became famous as a teacher.
Because Mount Wutai is a holy land of Tibetan Buddhism, the emperor of the world is also revered as "Manjusri Bodhisattva" by eminent monks from Tibetan Buddhism.
In order to win over and appease Tibet and Mongolia, Kangxi's visit to Mount Wutai after the war was just a gesture. It was not that the imperial court was frivolous about war, but also yearned for peace.
But did the Empress Dowager go to Mount Wutai?
Is this just the filial piety of a grandson?
The imperial court regained Taiwan in the 22nd year of Kangxi. At that time, the Empress Dowager was already 72 years old...
For an old man, just to worship Buddha and pray for blessings, why not travel more than a thousand miles to Mount Wutai?
No wonder outsiders have come up with various speculations, this does seem a bit weird...

I have been diagnosed with diabetes, and my liver, kidney, blood lipids and blood pressure index are not good. I will start hospitalization the day after tomorrow and try to keep up to date. Everyone should keep exercising, order less takeout, and don't stay up late. Xiaojiu is a lesson learned from the past, and she is bursting into tears!
