Seeing the confusion on Brother Ninth's face, Kangxi's lips curled up.
He did not intend to let the prince fix the management department.
I took one turn when I went to the study, and I can take another turn in the future.
Otherwise, if the adult prince is really required to take charge of one department, it will easily lead to disadvantages over time.
Brother Jiu was a little confused, but today was New Year's Eve. If there was anything wrong with Mobei Mongolia, Khan Ama would definitely not want to elaborate.
On the other hand, the fourth sister lives in Guihua Princess Mansion, far away from Mobei, so it should not be involved.
Thinking like this, Brother Jiu's heart was determined again.
If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up, and it will not be his turn to worry about military and state affairs.
Kangxi waved his hand and said: "Kneel down!"
Soon the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Lifan will meet again, and he doesn't have much free time here to grind his teeth with Jiu Age.
Not lecturing his son today is the greatest mercy of his Amma.
Brother Jiu agreed and withdrew.
Liang Jiugong's red envelope was given away; Wei Zhu's share had no chance.
Don't be in a hurry, just give it to you when you go back to the palace to deliver the New Year's plate.
He Yuzhu was waiting outside Qianqing Gate.
Brother Jiu came out and said: "You go to Yikun Palace to announce the good news to the empress, and then go to Ningshou Palace to find me."
He Yuzhu agreed, and the master and servant separated.
Brother Jiu has not yet figured out the purpose of asking him to go to the Lifan Academy.
There is a fourth elder brother in the household, he can take things easy.
Lifanyuan...
He won't run errands for Fifth Brother, right?
Brother Jiu couldn't figure it out, so he gave up and didn't think about it.
The printing will not start until the 20th of the first lunar month, and there is still more than half a month left. We will talk about it then.
Khan Ama doesn't see himself as having any leisure time, so he probably spends the first half of the year at the household department supervising some small errands.
After a while, Brother Jiu arrived at Ningshou Palace.
When he entered Ningshou Palace, he covered up all his worries, leaving only a look of joy on his face.
When the Queen Mother knew that Brother Jiu was coming, she made a guess.
According to the rules, the princes will come with Kangxi to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow morning.
Come here at this time...
The Queen Mother's heart was lifted.
Seeing Brother Jiu's expression, the Queen Mother felt relieved.
"Royal Grandma, my grandson brings you good news. Shu Shu was born last night. Mother and son are safe..."
Brother Jiu came in, beat Qian'er, and happily announced the good news.
"well……"
The Queen Mother smiled, but was still a little worried. She called Brother Ninth to sit closer and said, "Are you tired from organizing the New Year? Didn't you say it was after the Lantern Festival? Why did you give birth early?"
The ninth elder brother said: "I'm not tired. Since it's the twelfth lunar month and the month is getting older, I don't dare to let her bother. I just started it when I said it. It's my filial piety. I really want to delay it for another ten days and a half. It's really true." It’s really heart-wrenching, now it only weighs seven and a half kilograms…”
This weight is really confusing.
I am happy that my child has grown up well, but I am also upset that he has grown up.
When the Queen Mother heard the weight, she was surprised and said: "That is really a big fat boy. Your fifth brother is considered fatter among the princes, and he only weighs five kilograms or four taels."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "When my grandson heard this, he didn't even want to see him. He felt that the child was unfilial, but he didn't want to torture him. It only took four or five hours from seeing red to falling to the ground.
I feel like my child is filial again."
The Queen Mother said seriously: "You are not allowed to anger the child. This child is sensible. He should feel more pain."
"Well, well... my grandson has figured it out and is wondering..."
As the ninth elder brother spoke, he described the little elder brother's appearance and said: "He looks like everyone. He is such a clever little kid. Just by looking at his appearance, his three brothers and sisters will all love him."
The Queen Mother seemed to see a familiar fat baby in front of her eyes, which combined the strengths of his three brothers and sisters. He was white and fat, and she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.
Shu Shu was really blessed. She gave birth to triplets with her first child, and gave birth to a healthy son safely with her second child.
This couple has three legitimate sons and one legitimate daughter. No matter what happens in the future, there will never be chaos in this house.
on the contrary……
Over at Wubeile Mansion, I don’t know what will happen in the future...
The Queen Mother was a little worried in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.
You shouldn't have to worry about the affairs of the next generation, let alone your great-grandchildren.
Who in this world can be perfect everywhere?
As long as you are in good health and have no serious illness or disaster, everything else is just a trivial matter.
Brother Jiu just came here for lunch.
The Queen Mother was always kind and knew that the princes would be busy in the afternoon, so she just left the meal.
Brother Ninth was not polite and said: "My grandson is also a good person now."
The Queen Mother smiled and ordered Nanny Bai: "Did you hear that? Ask the kitchen to cook two dishes that cannot be eaten outside..."
Aunt Bai said: "This year's spring fish tribute from Heilongjiang is four feet long. In the past two days, they were all fried into fish pieces. How about adding braised fish pieces?"
??????55.??????
The Queen Mother nodded and said: "Okay, okay, I'll also fry two plates of deer tongue and roe deer intestines."
Aunt Bai went down to deliver a message.
Brother Jiu was excited when he heard that Heilongjiang was offering catfish as a tribute. The meat was juicy and different from ordinary fresh fish. Unfortunately, Heilongjiang was too far away from the capital, and the amount of fresh food brought out each time was also small...

In the Yikun Palace, in the East Room.
Concubine Yi listened to He Yuzhu's description of Shu Shu's delivery yesterday, with a smile on her face, but she was worried in her heart.
She had given birth four times, so she naturally knew how much trouble the children would suffer when they were older.
The fifth brother she gave birth to for the first time here was quite heavy and lasted a day and a night.
This is also why the fifth elder brother was carried to the Queen Mother's Palace as soon as he landed.
At that time, her vitality was severely weakened and she was still suffering from redness, so she couldn't care about anything else.
She felt a little more guilty about her eldest son, and for this reason, she was worried that the child would not be smart enough after being held in the mother's womb for too long.
The ninth daughter-in-law is really lucky.
For ordinary people, it would take two days for a child of this size to be delivered safely.
As a result, this nirvana was in good health and the child was born smoothly.
"What about 'washing three'? What will your master say?"
Concubine Yi asked.
He Yuzhu said: "Master said it's the New Year's Eve and everyone is busy. My little master, we won't serve wine during 'Xi San' and 'Fu Yue'. We will serve wine later during 'Hundred Years' and 'Zhao Zhou'."
Concubine Yi nodded, looked at Peilan, and ordered: "Since Baylor Mansion does not serve wine, there is no need to wait for the next one. You can go to see Jiu Fujin and my little brother for me, and then go to the imperial dining room to ask Feilong if he has any leftovers."
If you don’t have any, bring two with you.”
Birthday gifts are all prepared.
Peilan responded and went down to get ready.
Feilong is the annual tribute from the Northeast and is not the norm for harem masters.
However, Concubine Yi rarely asked about things beyond the specific rules. When she rarely asked, she sent them to Jiubele Mansion. Four of them were transferred from the imperial kitchen and recorded in the account book of Yikun Palace.
Ninth Prince has been in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for three and a half years, and many people hate him.
Especially those who belong to relatives and wealthy families, but ordinary Baoyi people here are only grateful to Brother Jiu.
As the princes grew up, the rich and powerful families of their respective mother clans had support, and people from various ethnic groups and in-laws also firmly occupied the vacancies in various yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Many ordinary coatsmen who have had enough seniority and are eligible for promotion can be promoted.
There are many people like Gao Yanzhong who have been on the job for more than 20 years and have yet to reach the top position.
As a result, Ninth Prince came, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs turned the situation around, not only to clean up the atmosphere.
Everyone's promotion is no longer based on family background, but truly depends on qualifications and ability to fill vacancies.
For this reason, Brother Jiu's reputation is actually better than he knows.
It's just that these people's status is too low, and their voices are too quiet, so they can't reach Brother Jiu's ears.
Peilan took two women's servants and left the Shenwu Gate. When she was waiting for the car from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she saw Aunt Bai coming out.
Behind Aunt Bai, there were two women servants, carrying large and small bags.
Aunt Bai smiled and knew that the two of them were going to the same place. She greeted Peilan and said, "Girl, take my car, we will go there together..."
Peilan often followed Concubine Yi to Ningshou Palace, and was also familiar with Aunt Bai. She knelt down and said, "Then I'll disturb Auntie..."

Jiubele Mansion, west wing of the main courtyard.
Shu Shu is having lunch.
Small wontons stuffed with shrimp, served with stir-fried cabbage, yam and fungus, smooth chicken slices and twice-cooked pork.
Mrs. Bo ate with her. Seeing that she was eating well, she also ate half a bowl of more rice.
Shu Shu was full and her chest was swollen, so she asked Ging Guo: "Is my little brother still asleep?"
Bai Guo went to look at the south room and came back to report: "She's still asleep."
"I can really sleep, I've been asleep for three hours..." Shu Shu said.
The last time I was fed was in the morning.
The uncle said: "My baby is still able to sleep. He has to sleep for eleven hours a day. You should also sleep more to recuperate your energy."
No matter how much the child can sleep, he will wake up and cry when eating, drinking or having diarrhea.
Shu Shu was woken up once last night.
Shu Shu shook his head and said: "You're not sleepy yet, just take a squint and it'll be fine."
Now that she was free, Shu Shu thought of her daughter and said, "I have a good memory. I thought I didn't remember her aunt since I haven't seen her for several months!"
Mrs. Zhang went to Beijing to get married, so she lived in the back courtyard of Baylor Mansion and followed her sister-in-law into the mansion twice.
Later, Shu Shu returned to Beijing and invited Mrs. Zhang.
In total, we met three times, and that was before August.
The uncle said: "I forgot about it before, but I guess I remembered it after seeing her. She has met very few young elders. Mrs. Zhang used to be married, so she wore pink and tender clothes; now she is a bride, and she wears red every day.
