Chapter 2024: Seven Granted Gardens (rolling to ask for monthly votes)
Chapter 2025 Seven Granted Gardens (rolling to ask for monthly votes)
When Fourth Brother left the Hubu Yamen, he saw a familiar figure in front of him.
"Fourth brother..."
It's the eighth prince who is here.
Fourth Brother said: "Are you asking about moving tomorrow morning?"
The eighth elder brother nodded and said, "Well, I'm thinking of moving with my fourth brother. The elder brother's side will be a day late."
Fourth Brother said: "Then let's go together, it will be convenient to take care of each other."
This time the two families went to Haidian. Sibeile Mansion was in South 3rd House, and Babeile Mansion was in South 4th House. They were still next to each other.
As the brothers spoke, they got on their horses and rode side by side.
"Is the Hanlin Academy busy these days?"
Brother Si asked.
The results of the general examination have been released, and the palace examination is about to begin.
After passing the top three grades in the imperial examination, it’s time to take the shujishi examination.
The eighth elder brother said: "Fortunately, I just went there for my younger brother. There is still a lot to learn."
The Hanlin Academy is busy right now.
A while ago, the Shujishi were dismissed, but now they are waiting for the new Shujishi to take the exam.
"Zhang Xiang's second son ranked first in Mandarin in this exam. I don't know why Khan Amma didn't give him grace, but only gave him a self-criticism."
Eighth Prince said.
The fourth elder brother said: "The right minister of the Ministry of Industry is vacant. I will wait until after the imperial examination to ask for an order to recommend him."
The eighth prince suddenly understood and said: "Is there Zhang Tingzhan as a candidate?"
The fourth elder brother nodded.
It had only been two years since Zhang Tingzhan was promoted to the third rank, and he still had little qualifications to be promoted to minister.
But if his father gives him a favor, this shortcoming can be easily made up for.
The favor given to the Zhang family fell on Zhang Ying's eldest son, and the second son could not take care of it.
The brothers chatted and the carriage arrived at the Beiguanfang.
At the gate of Sibeile Mansion, the fourth elder brother dismounted, the eighth elder brother said goodbye and continued to move forward.
Si Age went directly to the main courtyard, where Si Fujin was looking at the account books.
Brother Si asked: "Have your luggage been packed?"
Si Fujin nodded and said: "It's packed..."
Speaking of this, she hesitated a little and said: "Master, do you really want to keep the second elder brother in the house?"
Before, the fourth elder brother only asked her to pack the luggage of the second elder brother and the third elder brother, and planned to leave the Li family and their son in Baylor Mansion.
The second elder brother is four years old.
Even if it’s not yet time for enlightenment, shouldn’t it be time to start teaching rules?
Fourth elder brother said: "Stay in the house and move to the front next year."
Sifujin said nothing.
Brother Si thought that all the nephews in Jiu Beile Mansion had their names circled by petition, so it was time for him to petition for the decree too.
The second elder brother and the third elder brother have both been vaccinated and passed the test of life and death...

Babel Mansion, East Cross Courtyard.
The eighth prince looked at the same furnishings as before, feeling a little guilty and said: "We must keep proper people in the house..."
This time when he returned to Haidian, Ba Age didn't notify Fucha to pack his luggage.
Mrs. Fucha looked as usual, served the eighth prince a cup of tea, and said: "It was just a temporary measure for me to go out on Fujin's behalf before. Now that Fujin has taken good care of himself, it is my duty to return to the inner house."
Seeing that there was no trace of resentment on her face, Eighth Prince looked at the tea cup and said, "After all, I have wronged you."
Ma Qi is very popular now, and he is willing to give Fucha this honor.
However, although the Fucha family was in his name, the Fucha brothers had no intention of getting close to him, and he was also worried.
Mrs. Fucha shook her head and said softly: "I am not aggrieved. Since I entered the Baylor Mansion, I have been very loyal to you. Fujin is also tolerant to my servant. If my servant is not satisfied, he will be too ungrateful."
The eighth prince didn’t want to take the eighth prince to Haidian.
But he knew that husband and wife were one, and protecting the dignity of the Eighth Fortunes was his own dignity.
Ba Fujin has been "sick" for four or five years, and if he doesn't come out again, what do the brothers of Anjun Wang think?
Now that Zhenglan Banner has a new flag owner, Babeile Mansion and Anjun Prince Mansion should go in and out together so as not to be bullied by others.
For the time being, the only option is to aggrieve the Fucha family.
The eighth prince thought so and glanced at Fucha's belly.
Although Fucha has many brothers, they are all half-siblings, and her biological mother only gave birth to her.
The same is true on the Bafujin side.
The eighth elder brother was a little anxious.
Where can I find someone who is suitable for my son and my husband...

Early the next morning, Brother Jiu entered Changchun Garden and told He Yuzhu: "Take my belt, go to the queen's place to say hello to the queen, and ask the queen when she will be free these two days. I and Lao Shi will
I took Fujin and the children over to pay my respects to the queen."
He Yuzhu responded and went.
Brother Ten asked: "Did you pick up Xiao Shiba this time?"
Brother Jiu shook his head without hesitation and said: "No! There are too many children at home. Let's wait until Brother Seven and Sister-in-law Seven come back."
It would be nice if the children were older, because they are so close together and so noisy and full of excitement.
Brother Ten smiled and said, "I used to see Brother Ninth being very patient with my children, but it turns out there are times when I can't stand it."
Brother Jiu said: "There are too many children, it is difficult to control them, and they will make people angry."
The tenth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother and said: "Feng Sheng and Akdan are already obedient enough. If they are replaced by 'Bu Geer', the ninth elder brother will probably take care of them long ago."
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "That's because I am obedient in front of you, Fengsheng is still a man of good will, and there are times when that little brat Akdan can be annoying..."
Not to mention choking like "Brother Bu", it's not much better.
The tenth brother couldn't help but smile when he thought about Akdan's intelligence, and said: "He is a smart boy. In the future, the ninth brother and the ninth sister-in-law will have less to worry about..."
Brother Jiu also smiled and said: "The younger one can't see it yet, but the older three are all fine..."

Huichun Villa.
Concubine Yi met He Yuzhu.
She also missed the triplets, and was a little curious about the eldest son of the tenth prince.
During her lifetime, Concubine Wen Xi could not be said to be close friends with her, but she was also somewhat of an old friend.
But she was not in a hurry to see anyone.
The two princes brought their wives and the emperor's grandson and granddaughter into the garden, which was so eye-catching.
It was hard for anyone to mention the "auspicious" name of the triplets, so it would not cause more trouble.
There is also the eldest brother of the Prince of Dunjun. Concubine Yi Fei sent Peilan out of the palace to visit him before, and heard that his appearance was different.
Concubine Yi said: "Don't worry, there are many people in the garden now, and it's easy to get into trouble. There will be a palace examination in April, and the Holy Driver will return to the palace to preside over the palace examination. The garden will also be pristine by then. Let the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother come over in the next two days.
.”
He Yuzhu responded and went down to resume his duties.
The Eighteenth Prince sat in front of Concubine Yi and said, "Mother, today is only twenty-eight, so there are still several days left."
Yi Fei looked down at her youngest son and said, "Brother is worried?"
The eighteenth elder brother thought for a while and said: "I'm not in a hurry, I just want to see Akdan. My mother-in-law told Khan Ama that Akdan looks like her son."
Concubine Yi smiled and nodded, saying: "As the old saying goes, my nephew, Uncle Xiao, is talking about you. You will understand when you meet me."
The eighteenth elder brother was puzzled: "But shouldn't the triplets look the same? Then shouldn't the eldest nephew and niece look like me?"
There are two little maids in the Yifei Palace. They are twins and look the same.
Concubine Yi said: "There are similarities, but they are still the same. You will see them when they come in."
"Uh-huh……"
The eighteenth elder brother responded, looking forward to seeing his nephews enter the palace to pay their respects.
He Yuzhu went directly to Brother Jiu to revive him.
After hearing this, Brother Jiu thought it was appropriate to do it when the Holy Master was not in the garden.
There's no need to worry, there are still a few days.
At noon, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother left the garden and went back to their respective houses for dinner.
Shu Shu has received news here that Sibeile Mansion and Babeile Mansion have moved to Haidian.
But she didn't send anyone to deliver the meal box. It was far away and it wasn't her turn to worry.
"Only the Zhijun Prince's Mansion is left..."
Shu Shu mentioned this matter to Brother Jiu.
Brother Jiu said: "Just move. It's three miles away. It's further away than when we were at home."
This is talking about the people of Babel Mansion.
Shu Shu said: "Sir, is Changchun Garden surrounded by Wang Garden? Are there many open spaces?"
She thought of the land where the North Garden was built, which was the occupied Royal Garden of Pingjun Prince's Mansion.
Brother Jiu thought about the distribution in the vicinity and said: "No, there are many royal gardens in the east and north, and there are royal rice fields in the west. Didn't we get birds in the past in the past? There are also some royal rice fields in the south, and further south is the official road.
, there is the Eight Banners Barracks on the other side of the avenue, and to the southwest is Haidian Town..."
Shu Shu thought about the location of Old Summer Palace, which was to the north of Changchun Garden, that is, not far from the North Garden.
It seems that seven gardens were built for the princes at that time, and the Old Summer Palace was just one of them...
Seven gift gardens...
It had been built before Prince Yi was deposed and rewarded.
Shu Shu counted in her mind and looked at Brother Ninth with helplessness.
Prince Zhi, Prince Cheng, Four Beile, Five Beile, Seven Beile, Eight Beile. Everyone has a share in this wave of older princes. These are the six seats.
There is only one prince in the back who has given the garden. After calculation, it is either the tenth prince's or the thirteenth prince's.
There is no such thing as Ninth Brother.
But that's history.
Now the butterfly's wings have flapped several times.
This wave of princes grant gardens, and I want to occupy one myself.
From the time when the crown prince was deposed, the garden would be granted no later than forty-six years, and the enclosure construction would begin in the next forty-five years.
That won't be long.
It would be better if it could be done in advance.
Shu Shu said to the Ninth Brother: "The population of our house is relatively small. It is inconvenient to live in my house, let alone other people's houses. I will tell the Twelfth Brother later that he should take a look at the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
How about a little excerpt over there, mentioning the prince’s gift of a garden?”
"The prince granted me a garden?"
Brother Jiu was a little moved.
The ministers who led the bodyguards were from noble families and had gardens in Haidian, as were the princes under the Five Banners.
Shengjia is permanently stationed in Haidian, so it is very convenient for the princes and nobles to stay with him.
On the contrary, the princes like them could only stay at my elder brother's house every time they were in Haidian.
"How much land do we need to free up? Not counting the younger brothers like Fifteenth Brother, we have to build eleven gardens..."
Brother Jiu said, but felt that it was impossible: "Unless all the royal gardens nearby free up some land, we won't be able to move it."
Shu Shu said: "Those royal gardens are too close to Changchun Garden..."
Brother Jiu said: "They are all right next to each other. The old garden of Pingjun Prince's Mansion and Changchun Garden are separated by a wall..."
Shu Shu whispered: "It's too close, it's very inconvenient. I don't think the emperor has thought about this, but he just can't take the initiative to mention it."
The ninth elder brother listened thoughtfully and said: "But the twelfth elder brother doesn't like to stand out, so we can't let the eighth elder brother repair the garden..."
At the end of the sentence, he rolled his eyes and said, "I can't say that Lao Ba is the best candidate..."
