Chapter 1613: Make up for it (rolling and asking for monthly votes)
It's just that the tenth elder brother was granted the title of county king. Where he was born, he couldn't stop Gao from being granted the title. The clan and nobles were still watching.
It is not a good idea for the third elder brother to beat his younger brother and younger brother Ling.
Concubine Rong is not clear either.
The mother and son are obviously his enemies.
If the third elder brother is promoted to a county king, where will he be placed as the prince?
The prince was angry and a little uneasy.
The next step is to let the concubine out?
He did not dare to summon the imperial doctor in a big way, because he knew that the pulse records were directly passed to the emperor, but he knew his own body.
Even though he was told to sleep with Princess, he still felt inadequate and needed some deer blood wine or something like that.
He is not even thirty yet!
Will Yuqing Palace have any heirs in the future?
The prince felt a chill on his back.
Can the news about Yuqing Palace be hidden from the emperor?
Is it for this reason that the emperor brought up the third elder brother?
The third elder brother is ranked high, he is good at both civil and military affairs, he has been in the South Study Room for a year and a half without any mistakes, and he has three sons. He is more suitable to be a candidate for heir apparent than the eldest elder brother.
The prince's anger faded away, and he sat behind a few cases, his mind in a mess.
Hongxi...Hongjin...
Hong Jin's qualifications are there, but he is too stupid to be cultivated.
If there were only these two grandsons in Yuqing Palace, the only one we could count on was Hong Xi.
But because of the Li family, the emperor was already tired of Hongxi.
How to break the situation...
*
Someone from Chengjun Prince's Mansion came to congratulate him, and Dunjun Prince's Mansion and Jiubele Mansion were no exception.
People with whom I have good friendships on weekdays will arrange for people to come over to express their congratulations upon hearing the news.
At the Dutong Mansion, the mistress came.
Now Zhuliang and Xiaosi went out with Fusong, while Xiaosan followed Qi Xi and walked with the flag, and they were free on weekdays.
These were real brothers, and there was no taboo between siblings, so the mistress was invited to the main room to talk.
The mistress is four years younger than Shu Shu and has become a teenager this year. She looks like an adult.
Unlike Xiaosi, he has a fourth-grade Spyker, so he can directly supplement the military officers from the fourth to the fifth grade, or directly supplement the civil servants from the fifth grade.
"Have you made up your mind yet? Should you replace military attachés or civil servants?"
Shu Shu asked.
The mistress said: "As a replacement for civil servants, Ama has already applied and is waiting for the vacancy."
Shu Shu nodded and said, "That's good. It has more room for maneuver than a military attaché, and it won't be in vain for you to study for ten years."
Because they were twins, Xiaosan and Xiaosi were a little weak in their early years. They both gave up martial arts and studied literature and wanted to take the Eight Banners imperial examination.
A few years ago, when Xindali's father and son died one after another, Qi Xi replaced the earl and gave his previous fourth-grade Spyge to Xiao San, so that Xiao San could directly skip the Eight Banners imperial examination and directly fill the corresponding vacancy as a Spyge.
Brother Jiu was listening to his sister and brother's conversation and said, "Why are you so verbose, Sunu Beizi? I'm afraid your father-in-law still expects you to surpass the second-in-law and succeed his father-in-law as the governor of Manchuria..."
The mistress didn't deny it, but she didn't mean to be affected. She said, "I am self-aware. Even if Ama retires in ten or eight years, there will still be a cousin waiting there, and it will never be my turn."
According to the previous rules, when the captain is vacant, he must be selected from the first-rank or above Spylords of the banner; when the vice-capital is vacant, he must be selected from the second-rank or above senior spies of the banner.
Xiao San's title is the fourth rank, and he is not qualified to be a candidate for the title of Capital Commander or Deputy Capital Commander.
Unless Qi Xi's uncle ends up with Xiao San.
Where does such a plan place the love between father and son and brotherhood in the Dong E family?
The relationship between Dutong Mansion and Beizi Mansion has been estranged in the past two years, which may be due to this.
Seeing that he knew what he was thinking, Brother Jiu said, "It's good to understand. He's just an official fan, so he just looks up."
Shu Shu changed his words and said: "Since we want to make up for the vacancies in the ministry, we should do more than this. Your brother-in-law is also in the ministry now."
The mistress looked at Brother Ninth.
Brother Jiu coughed, puffed up his chest, and said: "Yuanwailang is an auxiliary officer. He is supported by a doctor above him, and there are principals below who can handle him. It is quite good for him to become an official and serve as a Yuanwailang. I am currently in the Ministry of Household Affairs.
I also spent some time in the Ministry of Punishment a few years ago, and I know the general idea. When Que'er comes down, know yourself before entering, and don't be fooled by others. Others can just follow suit slowly. There are many hard-working people. Let's
There is no need to compete with them for such an identity..."
The mistress listened carefully, and although she agreed with the first sentence, she disagreed with the second sentence.
Ninth Prince is a prince, so he doesn't have to work hard; if he was dawdling in the fifth rank, he would have to squat in the fifth rank.
Shu Shu was at the side, fearing that Brother Jiu would trick Xiaosan, so he said: "Listen to your brother-in-law, it's good to know yourself and your enemy. At your age, it's time to study. When Xiaosi enters the Imperial College, he will have to complete his studies."
It takes three or four years to become a errand. Once you have learned solidly, worked steadily, and done your job well, and received a good evaluation from the Beijing Inspectorate, your qualifications will be up, and your grade will follow."
How can Jingcha be evaluated well?
The standard of Jingcha is four grids and eight methods.
If you want to be lazy and goof off, you have to make a note of it when you go to Beijing for inspection. How can you get there?
Brother Jiu also thought of this and said: "Then don't listen to me, you have to be more diligent in appearance, otherwise you will get a bad evaluation and be demoted, which is not economical..."
At this time, Cui Baisui came in to report, and several family members came over to congratulate him.
The mistress stood up and left, saying: "Sister and brother-in-law are busy, I'll go and say hello to Ah Mou and then go back."
When no female guests came, Shu Shu said, "I'll go with you and let your brother-in-law go meet people in front."
Brother Jiu went to the front to entertain the guests, while Shu Shu took the mistress to Ning'an Hall.
Madam Bo has already received the news and is happy for Shu Shu and Brother Jiu.
Being formally knighted is different after all.
In front of the mistress, Mrs. Bo didn't say anything. She just asked about the situation of everyone in the Dutong Mansion, and then asked about the date Zhuliang and others would return.
The house on Laobofu East Road has been renovated.
When Zhuliang comes back, he has chosen a date to move to the old man's house.
Zhu Liang will also be there when he gets married and has children in the future.
That was the ancestral home of the fifth eldest brother of the Dong E family, so it was reasonable for it to pass to the heir, Zhu Liang.
Xiao San said: "Ama, I'm fine, but Xiao Qi can't stay in the house and always wants to go out. She caught a cold a while ago and coughed for a while..."
After hearing this, Mrs. Bo said: "It'll be fine after a while. It was just because I felt aggrieved during the vaccination."
In February of this year, four-year-old Xiao Qi also got vaccinated and was kept in the yard for a month.
Xiaosan nodded and said, "Yes, Enie said the same thing, so I didn't want to hold him too tightly."
All in all, it is a happy occasion to have a safe vaccination, and Xiao Qi can be considered half of it.
Ni Guzhu sat nearby and listened honestly to the elders' words.
When everyone came to an end, she said: "Xiao Qi is not a brother, but an uncle, Gao!"
The mistress smiled, picked up her niece, and praised, "It's rare that I still remember it after two or three months!"
Ni Guzhu loved to be praised by others. She chuckled and said, "You are so smart..."
The mistress said: "Well, well, our big princess is really smart..."
Mrs. Bo and Shu Shu looked at each other. This was the mistress who didn't come here often.
I remember that Xiao Qi’s uncle was not Ni Guzhu, but Fengsheng and Akdan.
Ni Guzhu spends half a day with his two brothers every day. Yesterday, he happened to hear the two brothers mention it and made a note of it. Here he is learning and selling...
In the afternoon, Chengjun Prince's Mansion sent someone over. It turned out that they were delivering posts to Brother Jiu and his wife.
Chengjun Prince's Mansion chose March 26th to hold a banquet and invite guests again.
Brother Jiu asked someone to give the reward, took the post, read it over and over twice, and said to Shu Shu: "Do you want to treat us now? Then the third brother is serving wine, should we follow suit?"
Shu Shu nodded and said: "Hey, the emperor's kindness is so great that naturally we can't just be grateful and happy in our hearts."
This is the day when the wine is served, should we put it behind the Dunjun Prince's Mansion?
Logically speaking, once a title is granted, brothers will also be divided into seniority and inferiority in addition to elder and younger.
But now that the emperor is still alive, they are all princes, and they cannot be judged simply based on their title.
Shu Shu doesn't worry about this anymore.
In addition to rules, there are also favors.
If Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao, the one who suffers the most is the tenth prince.
Shu Shu said: "Then I will discuss it with my tenth brother. After the wine is served by Prince Cheng, we can choose two days to serve the wine."
The almanacs were all ready-made, so Brother Jiu asked someone to take them. After looking at them, he circled a few days suitable for banquets, collecting wealth, and celebrating gifts. He said to Shu Shu: "Then tomorrow morning I will ask Lao Shi,
Just choose one for each person. Don’t be in a hurry to treat the guests. Tomorrow, ask Cao Shun to go to the household department to pay the money first..."
Shu Shu asked curiously: "I want cash, why don't I get an official ticket?"
Brother Jiu said: "It's convenient to have cash in hand. Let's go back to the bank and find an opportunity to send it to Ji Hong and ask him to help buy some more land on Nanshan Island."
Now that we plan to cultivate pearls, the hundreds of acres of orange orchards and tea gardens on Nanshan Island seem small.
It would be best to purchase all the idle land on the island and use it to cultivate pearls.
Shu Shu said: "What I said is that there is no place to spend money on the left and right. The more land on Nanshan Island, the better."
The next day, when the ninth elder brother went out, he took the almanac with him and discussed with the tenth elder brother the date of the treat.
The tenth elder brother took the almanac and read it, and said: "Twenty-eight and thirty are good, if there is no taboo, then just these two days are enough. Ninth elder brother is twenty-eight, I am thirty..."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Okay, then let's do it like this and ask someone to prepare a post later."
In the eyes of Brother Jiu, he will not think that his younger brother is the king of the county, so there will be no elder or younger, only the superiority and inferiority.
Seeing that the brothers were still as usual, the tenth elder brother had a real smile on his face. He was also in the mood to joke and said: "Third brother couldn't wait. The decree of promotion was issued yesterday morning, and I sent out posts everywhere in the afternoon.
!”
Brother Jiu also laughed and said: "I guess I have been holding it in for the past few years. I finally let out my anger and raised my eyebrows, but I don't have to show off..."
When they arrived at Hubu Street, Brother Jiu did not go to Hubu, but entered the palace and went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In February, the twelfth prince went to the Rehe Acceptance Palace. He originally planned to wait until Xia Sheng drove over before returning to Beijing, but he came back in a hurry two days ago.
Aunt Su Ma is over ninety years old and feels a little uncomfortable when the seasons change.
Twelve Fujin didn't dare to hide it, so he sent someone to deliver a message to Rehe, and Twelve Brother hurried back.
Fortunately, Grandma Su Ma's physical problem was not serious. After a few days of conditioning, she has started to get better...
