The ninth elder brother said in front of the fourth elder brother that he would think of other ways, but in fact he had already made up his mind.
This is it.
Nowadays, the officials who borrow money from the Ministry of Household Affairs are all Beijing officials and nobles of low rank, so it is a good time to stop them at this time.
If you really want to wait until someone of high status like Prince Baile starts borrowing treasury money, then you would be a fool to stop him.
Brother Jiu said he was not afraid of offending anyone, but he still had to distinguish between them.
When those princes, nobles and nobles join forces, even the emperor's father will be afraid of him. If he, a little prince, goes up against them, he is in serious trouble.
In the afternoon, Brother Ninth began to look at the large expenditures of the Ministry of Household Affairs this year.
There is no difference from every year, except that the money for river control has increased by 200,000 yuan.
After finally getting through Shen Zheng, the ninth elder brother couldn't wait, said hello to the fourth elder brother, and left the Hubu Yamen.
It was really hard not to come to the office for several months.
Brother Ten was already waiting at the yamen gate.
Brother Jiu asked: "Have Prince An and Sunubeizi entered the palace today? Is it time for Xinyu's sentence to come down?"
Xinyu's case has been exposed for so long, and it has triggered various follow-ups. We can only wait for the return of Shengjia to make a decision.
The tenth prince nodded and said: "The people from the imperial court have sent Sunu Beizi over, and there should be results."
By the next day, everyone would know Xinyu's final disposition.
He was spared death, his country was lost, and his whole family was exiled to Ningguta and the armored slaves as slaves.
When we were having lunch, the ninth elder brother and the fourth elder brother also mentioned this matter.
"Soetu's wife and children are also in Ninggu Pagoda, and the two-bedroom Hesheli family is over there..."
Brother Nine muttered, "More than forty lives were taken, and the sentence was too light!"
However, he also knew that the law was such that there was no reason for a householder to pay for his slaves' lives.
That is to say, the number of people involved in Xinyu's household is large, so the treatment is so serious. Otherwise, if there are only two or three lives, it will be demoted.
Therefore, he is also lucky. He was born in the royal family. As long as he becomes a subordinate, life and death will be decided by others, so he can just wipe his neck.
The fourth elder brother ate millet steamed buns and glanced at the ninth elder brother.
This treatment is not light!
For the nobles of the Eight Banners, it is either saving their lives or giving a light sentence. Losing their status is the most important thing.
True grace is to die without losing your title or property.
Seeing that the fourth elder brother did not answer, the ninth elder brother said, "Does the fourth elder brother also feel that the sentence was lenient? Alas, Khan Ama misses the old relationship the most, and there is nothing we can do about it."
The fourth elder brother nodded slightly, agreeing with the ninth elder brother.
Nostalgia for old friendship?!
I always feel that the imperial father is a little harsh on the Hesheli and Tong families, but the two families are not unjust.
This...is not a good sign...

Babel Mansion, study room.
The eighth prince also received the news of Xinyu's verdict and felt happy in his heart.
The royal father has no extrajudicial tolerance towards the Hesheli family. Does this mean that the royal father's love and patience for the prince are about to disappear?
Prince, the reserve is unstable...
The eighth prince took a writing brush and entered the question book for errands.
He thought about the ministries, but it was difficult to choose. The powerful yamen were easily feared, and the deserted yamen was just a waste of time.
Brother Ba looked to the west and had a choice.
*
Jiubele Mansion, main courtyard.
Ging Guo came in with the post.
"Whose family is it?"
Shu Shu asked.
Bai Guo said: "Post from the Fifth Princess's Mansion."
After hearing this, Shu Shu understood.
Jiu Gege is of the same age as her, and is also twenty years old this year. Her birthday is in mid-September, and this is a small birthday party.
Shu Shu asked Ging Guo to bring the warehouse brochure and selected a few items from it to prepare as a birthday gift for Jiu Gege.
Ging Guo was standing by, hesitating for a moment and said, "Does Fujin want to go?"
Shu Shu shook her head and said, "I'm not going. I'll just ask Shi Fujin to take the birthday gift with me, so as to save me the inconvenience and the princess's inconvenience too."
With a big belly, she even skipped greetings in the palace and continued to socialize around, which was also suspected of being unfilial.
When Brother Jiu came back from the Yamen, he talked about Xinyu's disposal and discussed with Shushu: "Xinyu's family has a lot of property, including more than a dozen houses and shops, and seven or eight villages. It is about to be sold to the government. Our family
Do you want to buy some?"
Shu Shu said: "This...according to the usual practice, isn't it bought back as a relative? Are they going to take out?"
If all the Hesheli clan is defeated, it is inevitable that the property will be divided up.
But only one group was punished, and most of the property was bought back by the family.
Brother Ninth Brother said: "Soni's five sons have lived to adulthood. This is the fourth branch to be punished, and there are no good ones left. If my cousin wants to come forward, he must weigh whether he has enough weight."
Sony's five sons, the three sons and one uncle, were originally rich and powerful, but now they have lost all their titles.
There was only one dandy, the fourth son, who had no title and no charges, so naturally he was not qualified to come forward to rectify the properties of other house owners.
After hearing this, Shu Shu was very moved and said: "It's a waste of money to just let it go. Then just buy a few houses and shops in Zhuangzi. There are not many Zhuangzi in Zhili that have good weather, and the income is average. Our own is enough."
"
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "I think so too. I can rent out the shop to make money. I can train it for Fengsheng and the others in the future, and it can also be used as a dowry for our big princess."
After the couple discussed it, Brother Jiu asked Cao Shun to prepare 20,000 taels of silver for the officials to buy.
Their family's money is naturally more than this, but Brother Jiu knows that the fatter the meat, the less delicious it is to eat alone, so he only needs to pick a few places.
He was at the Ministry of Household Affairs, thinking "the first to get the moon is those who are near the water and the tower". When he arrived at the Yamen, he went directly to the Eight Banners Division.
When he saw the valuation of the government-sold property, Brother Jiu's face dropped.
There are five shops on Gulou Street, with a discount of 235 taels of silver.
There is a small courtyard outside Di'anmen, with a discount of one hundred and eighty-nine taels of silver.
There are three shops on Dongsi North Street, and the exchange rate is one hundred and sixty-four taels and three cents.
Daxing Dazhuang covers an area of 680 acres, worth two thousand and forty taels of silver...
With a dark face, Brother Jiu asked the person in charge, "Who estimated the price? On what basis?"
Houses in Beijing are so popular, how can they be priced at this price?
As early as thirty-seven years ago, the five shops on Gulou Street could sell for a thousand dollars and hundreds of taels of silver, but they couldn't even buy them.
The price of land in Daxing, no matter how cheap the saline-alkali land is, is only three taels of silver per acre.
This is not cheap anymore.
This price is only 20% to 30% of the market price!
Ninth Brother himself is thinking about how to provide revenue to the Ministry of Revenue, but he really cannot tolerate such blatant misappropriation of the property of the Ministry of Revenue.
You know, if you don’t have a posthumous title, all the money you get from selling it will go into the household treasury!
If official sales were really allowed at this price, a property worth one hundred thousand taels would only be able to produce two or thirty thousand taels.
The manager was trembling and said: "It is estimated in writing, based on the red deeds of these properties..."
Brother Jiu took the valuation book, looked at the person in charge and said, "This is the custom of the Ministry of Household officials to sell properties, not according to the market price outside, but according to the red deed list from thirty or fifty years ago?"
The manager looked confused and didn't know what to say.
Brother Jiu rolled his eyes, put away the valuation book, and walked out.
The boss was startled and hurriedly chased him out, saying: "Master Jiu, Master Jiu..."
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "Don't seek death, be honest!"
The man didn't dare to chase him, but beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Brother Jiu walked to the front yard and did not go back to the check-in room. Instead, he went directly out of the Hubu Yamen and entered the palace.
There is no need to drag Brother Si with him for such an offending thing.
He was valiant and high-spirited. He entered the Qianqing Gate directly, only to find that there was a row of officials waiting to see him.
It seems like it came at the wrong time.
It's the time for foreign officials to meet and say goodbye.
Brother Jiu then slowed down and considered the matter carefully.
If this matter is revealed, you won't be able to take advantage, nor will others, and you will offend others.
But it doesn't matter.
If he really allowed the Eight Banners Division to sell off these properties at a low price, then he would be heartbroken.
Besides, if you don’t uncover this matter yourself, you won’t be able to protect others from uncovering it, and you won’t be able to make a living if you buy the property at a low price.
Brother Fourteen and Nersu had finished breakfast and were standing at the door of the study room talking.
When Brother Jiu arrived, they looked at each other and came over.
"Brother Ninth..."
"Ninth uncle..."
Brother Jiu turned his head and looked at his grandson and grandson coming over. Thinking about this seniority, he couldn't help but smile and said: "You two can play together..."
The fourteenth elder brother had no choice but to make gestures on his waist and said: "Except for Nersu, everyone else is so big, so we can't talk about it together."
Nersu smiled shyly and said: "My fourteenth uncle takes good care of his grandson..."
He was born in the 29th year of Kangxi's reign. He is thirteen years old. He is tall and his voice has begun to change.
The fourteenth elder brother puffed up his chest and said: "I am an elder. It is not my duty to take care of you. I won't be afraid when I go out to study next year. I have already told the fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother that they should be more careful."
Take care of you."
"Thank you, uncle..." Nersu said with gratitude.
Brother Jiu remembered something and asked Narsu: "Have the four buildings been repaired?"
The seventeenth elder brother has started studying this year and should have been moved from the concubine's place to the elder brother's place.
However, there was heavy rain last year and the renovation of the palace was delayed, which delayed the move of the palace by the seventeenth elder brother.
Nersu nodded and said: "It was repaired before the end of June and is now being painted."
It is not easy to apply paint during the rainy season.
This is to wait until after the rainy season and before winter to paint.
Brother Jiu heard that there would be no delay, so he let the matter go.
The fourteenth elder brother remembered something and said, "Is Hong Sheng from the third brother's family also old enough to go to school? Will he go to the study room?"
The upper study room was originally the area where the prince studied.
It is a blessing for the emperor and his grandson to come to study.
The previous wave of emperors and grandchildren had different identities. Will there be a second grace?
The upper study room is located in the Qianqing Gate, and it is not a place for children to play.
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "I don't know..."
The third elder brother did not mention this matter, and others could only wait and watch.
If the second son from the third elder brother's family is qualified to enter the study, then naturally the second son from other families can follow him.
There is also the issue of numbers.
If two grandsons from the third elder brother’s family enter the palace, can two grandsons from other houses also enter the palace?
When the fourteenth elder brother heard what the ninth elder brother said, he felt like he had not been waiting for me.
It's really one step too late, one step too late.
He was young, was knighted late, got married and had children late.
When his son can enter the study and show his face in front of the emperor, the nephew above will be able to work as an errand...
