Chapter 288: Don’t listen to evildoers (Third update, please vote for me)
Shu Shu's expression just echoed Si Fujin's words.
San Fujin was in a daze. Did he see it wrong just now?
Did you eat it reluctantly?
Maybe it's true.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have eaten so quickly.
Others only had two or three spoons, but she drank half a bowl.
It was this Yi Ming that Si Fujin and Shu Shu intervened in...
San Fujin's face drooped.
Even if I want to call my sister-in-law, shouldn’t I call her my sister-in-law?
Although it's not a good job, who doesn't know that the emperor has a very important brother, who has been designated to take care of the funeral ceremonies here.
At that time, those who follow Yi Ming will also be praised.
The fourth child is not as honest as he appears.
Seeing Shu Shu's appearance, Si Fujin hurriedly poured tea and put it in Shu Shu's hands: "Quickly press it..."
Shu Shu smiled weakly at Si Fujin and drank a cup of tea before suppressing the nausea in her chest.
But Sifujin...
The faint smell of clove oil...
Maybe it's not on Sifujin's body, but he's also infected.
Ahhhh!
Shu Shu felt that something was wrong.
The room was brightly lit, but I always felt like there was something else mixed in with the chanting outside.
There seems to be some whistling noise.
The windows also flickered.
Shu Shu's face turned even paler.
When Sifujin saw it, he felt pitiful and cute, and whispered: "I will sit down for a while, and then come back and take care of the two sisters-in-law's tea..."
This is said to be the Seventh and Eighth Fortunes. Pregnant women are here to avoid having to do anything. It is because of their close relatives that they come here today, but there is no need to go to vigils or funerals.
Shu Shu nodded hurriedly.
That's what is called fear.
It's nothing when you don't think about it, but when you think about it, you get more and more scared.
She's a little hairy.
Dafujin didn't have a coffin yet, so he was just lying on the coffin bed, with a mattress underneath and a quilt above. Thinking about it makes me panic.
At this moment, there was movement outside the door.
It was He Yuzhu who came, bowed in, and whispered to Shu Shu: "Fu Jin, I have sent you a cloak, please get out..."
Shu Shu hurriedly got up, apologized to everyone, and came out.
The Ninth Prince was wearing a large cotton cloak and was waiting in the leeward position about a foot away from the palace gate. Behind him were several eunuchs, including Sun Jin and two familiar ones who were the eunuchs around the Tenth Prince.
In addition to what he was wearing, Ninth Brother also had a cloak on his hand.
Seeing her coming, Brother Jiu hurriedly put it on for her and whispered: "Put it on quickly, I thought there were rich people, but I forgot to count the people from the two palaces, and I almost lost money..."
This cotton cloak looks inconspicuous, but it is very loose, has a hidden belt in the front, and the cuffs are half a foot longer, making it very warm.
Shu Shu heard this and breathed a sigh of relief.
I almost made a loss, but I didn't make a loss, which is pretty good.
Shu Shu said: "As long as it's enough, if it doesn't work, I can ask the needleworkers in the palace to make some right away. There's still tomorrow night..."
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "The clothes will be made in the future, and the mourning clothes will be worn in the sewing room. I'm afraid I won't care about anything else..."
Shu Shu nodded, having forgotten this before.
The day after tomorrow, when the coffin is buried, the servants of the royal palace, as well as the royal assistants and subordinates under the name of Prince Zhi, will all be enslaved.
The observance of filial piety means wearing white clothes for a hundred days.
On the contrary, Shu Shu, Jiu Age and others are just brothers of the same generation and do not need to pay heavy filial piety.
Seeing that the front of Brother Jiu's cloak was open and the hidden belt was not fastened, Shu Shu lowered her head and tied it carefully one by one.
Brother Jiu said: "No need to tie it up. You will have to untie it when you enter the house later..."
Shu Shu said softly: "Master, don't be afraid of trouble. It's windy at night, so you should be careful when going in and out. Otherwise, if I get sick, the emperor and the empress should worry..."
Brother Ninth said helplessly: "It's really long-winded... Well, who calls me a filial son... Among the princes like Khan Ama, I am the one who makes Khan Ama worry the most, and others can't..."
Looking at his stinky look, Shu Shu said something fair: "I see that I have caused the Emperor to worry a lot. It's just that the Emperor is merciful and doesn't care about me..."
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and said: "Who calls Khan Ama Khan Ama? You can't just pamper the elder brothers in front of you and not the ones behind you... When your stepfather becomes Ama, he won't be so doting on his children.
Hit me when you need to be beaten, scold me when you need to be scolded..."
Shu Shu couldn't help but smile.
It’s really a self-righteous double standard.
Brother Jiu saw that the wise man was thinking of Qi, so he also tied the fly of Shu Shu's cloak.
With a bit of schadenfreude, he said: "There are ten women's maroon cloaks in total, nine were delivered, and the remaining one was coaxed by my fourth brother to wear it. Fourteen is quite beautiful, so I think it's just the maroon one..."
Not only the ninth elder brother forgot to count the people in the two palaces, but the fourth elder brother also forgot.
In fact, the two palaces have been silent for many years.
The third elder brother of Prince Yu's family was often taken to the palace when he was a child, and he was also given the grace to enter the study room.
Later, in the 29th year of Kangxi's reign, Prince Yu disobeyed orders and took matters into his own hands. He stopped discussing affairs and took away the title of the third assistant. His family was not as good as before, and the third elder brother of the palace also withdrew from the upper study room.
Prince Gong was also a prince, but from the time he was ennobled, he was reduced in rank to Prince Yu. In the same year, he also seized the title of Sanzuo, and became completely silent.
The cousins in these two houses, Brother Jiu, were really unfamiliar with each other, and they had just left during the day to express their condolences.
Unexpectedly, I came here again after dinner.
The fourth elder brother is different in age from the two elder brothers from Prince Yu's Mansion. Even twenty-nine years ago, they had no contact.
As for the five elder brothers in Prince Gong's palace, because of their low background, they did not get close to the princes and were used to being ignored by everyone.
"My mother-in-law was very helpful this time. Apart from the ones here, there are still twenty-one cloaks left, but six of them are small and medium-sized and cannot be used... The remaining ones are only fifteen, which is still not enough...
The fourth brother originally planned to arrange for Thirteen and Fourteen to stay in the house with Lao Liu from Prince Gong's Palace. However, Fourteen refused, so the fourth brother pretended to give Thirteen the brown cloak. As expected, Fourteen was fooled and gave the brown cloak to Thirteen.
The cloak was snatched..."
Before Shu Shu married into the palace, Mrs. Bo sorted out her immediate family members.
The so-called proximal branch is divided from Kangxi.
The clan descended from the same grandfather as Kangxi, they are the descendants of Emperor Taizong and are close relatives.
There are five royal palaces in total, namely Prince Xian's Palace, Prince Zhuang's Palace, Prince Yu's Palace, Prince Chun's Palace and Prince Gong's Palace.
Among them, Prince Chun's palace was passed down to father and son for two generations.
The ones with inheritance are the four princes' mansions.
In fact, there is still a Guogong Mansion, which belongs to the branch of Kangxi's concubine. However, the old Guogong has been dead for three years. The eldest son is the son of the successor Fujin. The third successor Fujin, who is the head of the family, has two biological sons who are not yet adults.
, the title is on hold and has not been passed on for the time being,
Shu Shu knew more about these four princely residences.
Especially these two branches under Emperor Shizu are the modern sect among the modern sects.
The sixth elder brother in Prince Gong's palace is the daughter of the Wu family whose identity is in dispute. He is between the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother, so he can be considered a child.
After the ninth elder brother finished gossiping and making fun of the fourth elder brother, he handed Shu Shu two purses.
"This is from Xiao Fusong. It's dry, chokes people, and doesn't taste good..."
As he spoke, he took out another purse, took something from it, and stuffed it directly into Shu Shu's mouth.
Sweet and waxy.
Shu Shu was still hungry, so she didn't care to dislike Jiu Age for not wiping his hands, and tasted it carefully.
It’s packed directly in Dutch, so why are you picky?
It's black candied dates.
"Is it yummy?"
Brother Jiu asked proudly.
Shu Shu nodded and said: "It's delicious and sweet. This is just the right thing to eat..."
Brother Jiu handed it to her, and then, like a magic trick, he took out another purse.
"and this……"
It's persimmons, each one wrapped in glutinous rice paper and put in a purse.
Shu Shu couldn't wait and wanted to eat it right away.
Brother Jiu hurriedly persuaded him: "Okay, I'll go back to the house to eat later, so as not to overwhelm the wind..."
Shu Shu hesitated.
Besides her, there were eight other people in the room.
They are all sisters-in-law.
It’s not delicious to eat alone, but if we share it, half a piece of persimmon per person?
It seems a little strange.
Brother Jiu whispered: "I just came over from the palace kitchen and ordered people to bake the fruit for the offering, and bring it up with the tea..."
Offering fruit is also called furnace fruit.
It is a small noodle fruit commonly used in sacrifices.
It is not out of character to use this with tea during mourning.
Shu Shu nodded.
The branches rustled and the wind started blowing.
Brother Jiu blocked the direction of the wind, but the strong smell of incense was still everywhere along with the cold wind.
"Cough cough cough..."
Shu Shu coughed for a while, and his lungs almost came out.
Brother Jiu hurriedly pushed her: "Hurry in, don't wait outside..."
Speaking of which, I remembered that there are masks.
Shu Shu no longer had this place in his hands, so Brother Jiu asked He Yuzhu to hold it.
"My mother-in-law made several big bags...I know who you are for being so generous...not very frugal..."
Shu Shu covered her mouth and was speechless: "This is not a rare occasion for my noble son-in-law to speak. Enie must want Zhou Zhouquan..."
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "Don't blame me. I think my mother-in-law just spoils her children... She still treats you as a little Jiaojiao. I'm afraid she'll get smoked..."
I know that people outside are too arrogant and do not mention Shu Shu's chronic illness.
Shu Shu nodded and said: "No matter how old I am, I am still a child in the eyes of Enie; no matter how old I am, I am still a child in the eyes of the emperor and the empress..."
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and said: "It's good to be a child. If you do something wrong, you won't be criticized. If you do something right, you will be praised. I find it very comfortable to be praised by others... These days, there are always people praising me, and it's none other than Khan Ama..."
It was cold outside, so Brother Jiu didn't say much, pushed Shu Shu a few steps, and asked Sun Jin and others to take their cloaks and follow him into the west hall to deliver things.
He won't go in.
Brother Jiu stared at the door of the west side hall, watching Shu Shu pick up the curtain and enter.
As a result, a "cough" sound came from behind.
Brother Jiu almost jumped up and his hair stood up in fear.
Then there was a rustling sound. Brother Jiu wanted to look back, but he didn't dare.
Then, a hand touched his shoulder.
Brother Jiu thought of what he had said in the morning. His body stiffened and his teeth chattered. He closed his eyes and whispered: "Sister-in-law, you'd better leave... If you really can't bear to leave, don't come looking for me. I don't want to break up with you. I'm the eldest brother."
Miss you..."
At this point, after thinking about how the eldest brother had just gone to see the younger brother, he changed his mind again: "The eldest brother has gone to see Hongyu. The child's eyesight is bright. You'd better stay away and don't scare the child..."
"
"If you are really worried, go and find...my fourth brother. Fourth brother is a reliable person and worthy of trust..."
"How about the third brother, who is at the front of the line, reads a lot, and is good at learning..."
The first two sentences he said were still evasive, but in the second sentence, he became a bit enthusiastic.
"Third brother, let's forget it. He doesn't know how to deal with general affairs, so don't delay..."
"How about I, my eighth brother, be considerate to my brothers, considerate in dealing with things, and be close to my eldest brother..."
"My fifth brother is okay, but he doesn't do things very neatly and takes too much time..."
"If it really doesn't work, you can just go to Qi Ge... He doesn't seem to want to talk to others, but he has a cold face and a warm heart..."
Brother Jiu talked about the strengths of his brothers and felt a little scared in his heart.
He closed his eyes and prayed to the gods and Buddhas.
With so many brothers taking care of things, can the sister-in-law find someone else?
As a result, his neck was hooked.
Scared out of my wits!
Just as he was about to shout, his mouth was gagged, and then his arm was dragged out, and he was dragged to a secluded place.
Brother Jiu was so frightened that he didn't dare to open his eyes, but he began to struggle desperately.
Then, a familiar voice came from around me, like the sound of nature.
"Ninth brother, don't shout, Khan Ama is here..."
It's the eighth prince's voice.
Brother Jiu opened his eyes and looked forward.
Huh?!
so many people!
Khan Amma in regular clothes!
On the left hand side of Khan Amma are the third brother, the fifth brother, and the eighth brother!
On the right hand side of Khan Amma are the fourth and seventh children!
Everyone looked at Brother Ninth with different expressions.
Brother Jiu's eyes widened.
Is that the honorific you used just now?!
His mind was racing, and he immediately felt happy.
Shu Shu reminded him several times before, but he also changed his name without knowing it.
Even in private, I use the honorific title.
Otherwise, the "third child" or "fourth child" must be bald. In that case, Khan Amma will definitely reprimand them.
I seem to have praised myself too!
I didn’t dwell on which brother was bad!
Brother Jiu thought this and felt relieved.
Even though the emperor's father was now inscrutable, Brother Jiu didn't notice him and said with admiration and excitement: "You are here..."
It is said that the emperor of the world is the true dragon and the emperor, immune to all evils.
Khan Amma is here, even if my sister-in-law lingers, she will not come forward!
Kangxi looked at his ninth elder brother and was speechless.
Just now, the fourth elder brother also praised the ninth elder brother and his wife for a good meal.
The couple performed well today and were affectionate and righteous.
Lao Jiu persuaded the boss to come out.
The ninth daughter-in-law helped Dafu Jin improve his appearance.
As a result, before I could even think of how to compliment him, I saw the young couple talking nonsense.
The fourth elder brother wanted to cry out at that time, but Kangxi stopped him.
Kangxi felt a little confused.
Not only do I hope that my son and his daughter-in-law will have a good relationship and they will have a happy couple, but I also worry that if the relationship is too deep, if something happens, my son will be sad.
For example, Big Brother is a lesson learned from the past.
A few years ago, he wanted to point out Fu Jin, but his eldest brother declined.
Thinking that the county prince's palace was in short supply of a mistress, Kangxi thought of appointing a successor to Fujin after a hundred days.
But thinking about the eldest brother's affection for his first wife, I'm afraid he won't be willing to renew their relationship so soon.
Regarding Lao Jiu and his wife, Kangxi was determined to wait and see.
What did you see?!
Dong E's behavior is quite appropriate.
Treat your husband carefully and understand the principles of human relationships.
Lao Jiu was making a fuss and was not steady at all.
Everyone else was waiting patiently for the vigil, but he was the only one running around the house.
Not seen outside.
We even provide food and drinks and late night snacks!
Who did this bad-mouthed habit follow...
Kangxi was still grinding his teeth.
Brother Ninth Brother has already complained: "How many times has this happened?! Once, twice, not again! Even Khan Ama, my son has to remind you, don't listen to any inappropriate behavior..."
