Shu Shu did not shake his head in a hurry, but felt that this suggestion was quite reliable.
"Don't worry, the entourage order will be delivered in a few days. I'll find a chance to ask Jiu Gege first."
Otherwise, it would be too arrogant and impolite to worry about using the other party's manpower without saying hello to the owner.
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Well, if Xiaojiu is not happy, just tell the Queen Mother directly. Doesn't the Queen Mother have no restrictions on people?"
Shu Shu smiled and said nothing.
Although Concubine Hui said this, the Queen Mother would also reduce the number of people who followed her.
In the past, we planned to bring twelve or fourteen people, but now we estimate there will be no more than eight.
There will be no more than five people around the two concubines, past Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong.
Although the honor of a concubine is higher than that of a palace concubine, the status level is the same.
After Brother Jiu said this, he heard that Concubine Yi had given him some pocket money, so he opened his purse and said, "How much pocket money did your concubine give you?"
While I was talking, I took out the banknotes from inside and counted them.
Inside are two banknotes, each with a denomination of five hundred taels, for a total of one thousand taels.
Brother Ninth has been on duty for half a year, and he is not ignorant of the world. He sighed: "What's the use of having a son? When you get a wife, you have to coax him!"
The annual salary of the imperial concubine is only three hundred taels a year.
In addition to birthday rewards and New Year rewards, a thousand taels a year would be pretty good.
Shu Shu said: "The reason why I love Wujiwu is because I love my fifth brother and me."
Like Concubine Rong, there are many evil mothers-in-law who cause trouble for their daughters-in-law no matter what.
It is indeed rare for someone like Concubine Yifei, who only hopes for a happy life for her son and daughter-in-law, and does not follow her mother-in-law to make things worse.
This is Shu Shu and Wu Fu Jin's good luck.
Shu Shu was grateful and sympathized with Concubine Yi. She thought of the purses that were coming in from outside and said: "A few years ago, I asked Yinlou to make some gold pins, silver pins to hold the purses, and some gold and silver necklaces. After they are delivered,
, first take out a box to honor your empress."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "That's good, it will save the queen from being tight."
There is no need to follow the example of Fifth Elder Brother and the others for this kind of filial piety that is neither year-round nor unfaithful, and there is no need to show it in front of others with great fanfare.

Five Belle Mansion, upper room.
Wu Fujin was talking to his fifth elder brother about the situation of meeting the Queen Mother, and the assignment of tasks that the sisters and brothers had discussed.
Here, the couple prepares home remedies for acclimatization, and then sends people to Tongzhou to find out how to deal with seasickness.
At Shu Shu's place, various street dishes will be prepared based on the Queen Mother's spring meal list in previous years.
The fifth elder brother listened carefully and said: "Tomorrow morning I will go to Tongzhou in person..."
After saying that, he praised Shu Shu for being careful: "She is a filial person and very attentive."
Wu Fujin nodded and said: "Yes, and he is very knowledgeable. I have learned a lot by following him."
Hearing this, the fifth elder brother was a little worried: "Lao Jiu doesn't like reading very much, so will my younger siblings dislike Lao Jiu?"
Wu Fujin smiled and said: "My brothers and sisters are not that shallow. They never rely on their talents and are arrogant. They only look at the harmony of the young couple. I don't have to worry about this."
The fifth elder brother breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, it's because Lao Jiu is not motivated..."
However, Wu Fujin heard the uncertainty of the fifth elder brother, and it seemed that he was not just talking about the ninth elder brother, and said softly: "There are hundreds of people, all kinds of people, they can all be modeled? Let's look at the advantages."
The fifth elder brother said sarcastically: "That man doesn't seem to have any merits."
Wu Fujin looked at him with gentle eyes: "I have a kind-hearted nature, be kind to others, and be filial to my elders. There is nothing better."
The fifth elder brother's face turned red and he felt more uncomfortable. He did not dare to look into Wu Fujin's eyes: "How can I be so good? I am not good at studying and my errands are ordinary."
Wu Fujin praised: "But I am patient and cautious in my work, otherwise the emperor would not have entrusted me with the important river work to inspect."
The fifth elder brother has been working in the Ministry of Works for the past two years, and most of the errands he has taken on are mainly about water conservancy in the Ministry of Works.
The fifth elder brother felt that his face was getting hotter and hotter, so he changed his words and said: "When the weather gets warmer in February and the foundation can be dug, the ninth and tenth prince's mansion will be built. It's a pity that I am not here, otherwise I would go with him
Khan Amma asked for an errand."
The Prince's Mansion was built by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Zongren Mansion Branch, the Ministry of Industry and the Construction Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
After hearing this, Wu Fujin said with worry on his face: "My younger siblings said that they will become vegetarians on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month in order to have children. I am a little worried..."
The fifth elder brother also frowned after hearing this and said, "It's useless to burn incense and worship Buddha. It all depends on whether Lao Jiu lives up to his expectations or not."
Wu Fujin sighed and said: "I'm worried about this too...Master, let's also beg for children and prepare for the birth of two elder brothers. When the time comes, there will be room for the ninth brother and the ninth younger brother..."
She was serious, but the fifth elder brother felt his scalp numb.
He was embarrassed to say that he was ashamed and did not dare to look at Wu Fujin. He nodded casually and said: "Then... I'll ask for you when I get out of the service..."

Shu Shu and Brother Jiu had a good night's sleep.
Who would have thought that there would be another candidate for their heir?
When the couple talked about their little goodbye, they found an excuse for Brother Jiu to get his wish.
The next day, after breakfast, Brother Jiu came out from the second house with great satisfaction.
He did not go directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but first went to the Third Office to find Brother Ten.
"Yesterday, Khan Ama directly promoted Master Yinde to the position of Chief Historian of the County Prince's Palace. Our title is not sealed, but it is almost equivalent to being sealed. I plan to go to the imperial court to tell Khan Ama about Fusong..."
Brother Ninth said.
The tenth prince had a very good impression of Fusong.
However, I didn't judge his character based on a chance encounter, so I sent someone to Zhenghongqi to inquire about him.
We know a lot about Fusong's situation.
More pitiable than myself.
I lost my biological mother and my maternal family was ruined. If I hadn't had Mrs. Dutong, my biological aunt, to take me over, whether I could have grown up well was one thing. I didn't have to choose my conduct and character.
The tenth prince felt sympathy for each other and believed in the tutor of Dutong Mansion, so he paid more and more attention to the matter of marriage.
"Go ahead and tell him. Whether it's the chief of ceremonies or the bodyguard, once he's approved, my brother will take him to his uncle's house."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "That's what you said. Whether you like it or not, let me give you an explanation first. If you delay it for too long, it will hurt your feelings."
The two brothers were talking and came out of the third house.
Passing by Yuehua Gate, the ninth elder brother went to Qianqing Palace, while the tenth elder brother continued to walk south, leaving the palace to go to the yamen of Zongren Mansion.
Yesterday, many civil and military officials were present at the Palace of Supreme Harmony, but not many people handed over signs this morning.
When Brother Jiu arrived at the gate of the Qianqing Palace, the eunuch serving as the eunuch had already brought his men to prepare for the meal.
Brother Ninth had no idea of waiting for the dining table to be removed and immediately called someone to report it.
Kangxi was reading the post of Wang Shen, the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Because the incident on the first day of the first lunar month had just passed, it was not suitable for unrest in the palace. Therefore, Wang Shen was ordered to investigate the wealthy families of the Ministry of Internal Affairs these days. He did not directly investigate each household, but first went through the Eight Banners Department of the Ministry of Household. Statistics of the industries under each company's name.
If it is a division of ancestral property or a wife's dowry, etc., separate it separately, and the remaining increase must be accounted for.
If a family's income does not match its expenditure, it must be marked.
The larger the difference, the more fishy it is.
As a result, there was something wrong with the leaders and stewards of the imperial dining room, Guangzhou Department, Construction Department, Qianliang Yamen, and Internal Management Department.
Needless to say, the imperial dining room is famous for its oil and gas.
There is a pawn shop run by the Ministry of Internal Affairs under the Guangchu Department, which regularly cleans out old and worn-out items. There are also things that can be done in this.
Needless to say, the Construction Department conducted an inspection once in July and August last year, and only found the Palace Manager, and did not continue to investigate further.
You don't need to guess to know that the big boss who is greedy for ink is still in the Construction Department.
The Qianliang Yamen is in charge of renting taxes in Huangzhuang. This person also handles a large amount of money, food and things, so it is easier to do anything.
In addition, it is very simple to take charge of the internal affairs and handle the errands in the palace.
Kangxi had already been prepared and was not surprised by this verification result.
His eyes first fell on the collar of the inner tube.
This place was previously managed by his people, and in the thirty-fourth year, the Crown Princess was granted the title. After the Crown Princess began to take control of the palace, in order to facilitate the Yuqing Palace, Kangxi asked the Crown Prince's nanny Ling Pu to take charge of it.
As a result, the two leading doctors before and after him were both greedy for money.
The former bought several properties, paid a heavy dowry to one of his daughters, and married him to the concubine of the clan and the Duke's mansion as his legitimate wife.
The latter has been executed, and a lot of the hundreds of thousands of family assets confiscated should have come from the internal management department.
Immediately, he focused his eyes on Qianliang Yamen.
This is under the control of Concubine Hui's natal family, and the person in charge now is Concubine Hui's brother.
On the contrary, he is less greedy than others, and his added property is only six or seven places.
Kangxi was very satisfied that Concubine Hui behaved respectfully and knew how to restrain her mother's family.
Even though she had been the head of the four concubines for many years, she had never sought an official position for her natal family.
Three of the properties acquired by the Ulanara family were transferred to the Yin Ergenjueluo family of Dafu Jin in the 26th, 27th and 36th years respectively.
These three years were the years when the eldest brother got married, gave birth to his eldest daughter, and gave birth to his eldest son.
This is by adding makeup and congratulations to the great fortune, and dedicating the property to the eldest brother.
Kangxi was even more satisfied when he saw it.
Very good, the Ulanala family has not forgotten their roots and knows that their favor lies with their eldest brother.
The Construction Department is left...
Kangxi's face turned cold.
There are no brothers of Concubine Yi here, but there are the in-laws of her half-brothers and her natal family.
Thinking of Guo Guiren, Kangxi showed disgust on his face.
If he hadn't been concerned about Princess Kejing, he wouldn't even have given Guo Guiren the title of nobleman.
The Guo Luoluo family had merit in giving birth to Concubine Yi, but giving birth to a Guo nobleman was also a crime.
Kangxi took up his pen and circled the names of several people, marking them as "deposed and thoroughly investigated."
As for the Qianliang Yamen, Kangxi marked "recovery of suspension of salary".
Tolerance is tolerance, and we should also remind Ulanara's family.
As soon as he put down his pen, he heard the eunuch report that it was brother Jiu who asked to see him, so he nodded and called for a message.
Brother Jiu came in and saw Liang Jiugong standing next to the basin with a towel, apparently about to help the emperor wipe his hands.
After that, without waiting for Liang Jiugong to respond, he grabbed the towel, put it in the basin, wring it out carefully, and said with some flattery: "Oh, wipe your hands, Oma!"
Kangxi glanced at him suspiciously, but did not take the towel and said: "What do you ask for again? Do your business well and don't think about what you have and what you don't have all day long!"

Brother Jiu was dissatisfied and said: "My son just wants to be filial to Khan Ama. Just accept it. If you do this again, who will dare to be filial to you?"
Kangxi took the towel and said angrily: "Who told you to 'not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything'? I'm not just reminding you..."
"Hehe! No wonder they say, 'There is no better son than a father'. Khan Ama, you are really discerning..."
Brother Jiu smiled brightly, showing his small white teeth, and said boldly.
Kangxi snorted lightly.
Where is the prince here?
Simply a night owl.
Every time I come here, there is always an accident.
Kangxi didn't ask either.
Maybe it’s related to the Southern Tour?
Or is it related to the old ten weddings?
No matter what it was, Kangxi was not going to agree to it.
After letting your son experience love and tolerance, you should also let him see what a "strict father" is.
Especially at Lao Shi Da Wen, there have been several exceptions. If we add more grace, it will lead to speculation and easily cause trouble.
Brother Ninth Brother did not beat around the bush and said the reason for his visit: "My son is not thinking about the long history of the tenth brother. My son also recommends a master of ceremonies. When the time comes, he will also have someone to keep an eye on the house, and he will be more attentive."
Kangxi was a little surprised. He really didn't expect it to be because of this.
"Who do you want to recommend?"
Kangxi asked, thinking about the people Brother Jiu had contact with, and found that this son was not a sociable person.
Not close to my mother-in-law.
Brother Jiu smiled and said: "It's no one else, but Brother Fusong, the adopted son of my son's father-in-law..."
The Eight Banners were appointed by Kangxi himself.
Kangxi naturally knew the situation in Qi Xi's family.
It is common for the clan members to come and go.
There are not many that are truly evil.
He did not criticize Fu Song's background, but said with disdain: "You are too young, the chief of ceremonies should choose someone mature..."
