Chapter 813: Being a younger brother won’t hurt you (two-in-one, please vote for me)
"I'm not talking about these patent medicines!"
Kangxi frowned and said: "It is emergency medicine, such as heat syndrome, vomiting, high fever, cold and other symptomatic patent medicines..."
Who is a serious person who keeps thinking about those medicines?
That's not something that's easy to talk about between father and son.
Brother Jiu thought of "Huoxiang Zhengqi Powder" and nodded: "It's good to have some ready."
A cold is not an emergency, but this medicine is not bad.
If used at the early stage of symptoms to suppress high fever, the danger can be reduced somewhat.
And the "alcohol" created by Fujin.
Because the imperial court had a "prohibition on alcohol", there were not many preparations.
If potatoes are popularized and used to make wine, more alcohol can be prepared.
In addition to reducing fever, it is also good for dressing wounds and can be stored in the military.
Kangxi glanced at him and said, "What do you think about Prince Ping's affairs?"
Brother Ninth's face turned a little pale.
Thinking of this, he was still a little frightened.
I don’t know whether it was because I said the unlucky words first, and then it happened later; or if it was because of the later things, I mentioned this matter by some strange coincidence.
He had experienced several funerals in the past two years, but the death of Prince Ping never made him palpitate.
No warning.
Seeing Brother Jiu's expression, Kangxi regretted asking about this matter.
He had heard someone mention that Jiu Age was scared before, and thought he would be fine in the past few days.
Look at this, he is still cowardly.
Brother Jiu took a breath and said: "My son just feels that it is not easy to live a long life! My son is thinking about telling the teacher that after studying the "Book of Rites", he will study the "Book of Changes".
Time to measure good or bad luck..."
This was not just a random joke on his part, but he had actually had such an idea.
In addition to normal "aging" and "sickness", there are also all kinds of messy ways to die.
It would be great if we could really predict the future.
That way, you can avoid danger.
Kangxi shook his head and said: "It's nonsense. I don't want to talk about the strange power and chaos. Don't worry about those crooked demons and evil ways. It's just an accident. I mentioned this because I paid attention to the charcoal poison..."
Human life is at stake.
The person who died was a county prince, but Kangxi was worried about the people of the capital.
He had stayed outside the palace when he was a child and knew that the buildings outside were different from those in the palace.
There are earth dragons in every main hall in the palace, but not all the buildings outside are like this.
It would be nice to have a charcoal basin.
Thinking of this, Kangxi said: "I asked Shuntian Prefecture to collect the number of people who died from charcoal poisoning every year. Every winter, dozens of people died of charcoal poisoning, and hundreds of people were lucky enough not to die. They were also aphasic, paralyzed, and could only linger on the sick bed. Since
If you pay attention to the prescriptions, you can look up the prescriptions for treating charcoal poison..."
Not only in the capital, but also in the palace, there are people injured and killed by carbon poisoning every winter.
Just because "poison" sounds taboo, I usually record "typhoid" and "stroke" when recording.
Brother Jiu was surprised and said: "Are there so many people? My son didn't notice it."
Then you can really ask Le Fengming to look for this prescription. If you can try out a useful prescription and save people's lives, it will be a meritorious deed.
The biggest thing in the world is human life.
Kangxi nodded.
Although birth, old age, illness and death are inevitable, this kind of untimely death makes people uncomfortable.
Brother Jiu said: "Then my son knows, then pay attention to this matter!"
The deceased is gone.
No one has the power to bring people back to life.
It would also be a good thing if the living people could eliminate the charcoal poison and gradually recover.
Kangxi passed down the title of Ninth Elder Brother just for these few things.
Now that he had finished speaking, he sent Brother Jiu down.
Brother Jiu was not in a hurry to leave. He took a purse to Liang Jiugong and said, "This is a new year's gift for Shuda..."
Liang Jiugong did not put it away immediately, but looked at Kangxi.
Kangxi raised his eyebrows and said, "What is it? Show it to me..."
After this year, it’s not over yet.
Should he remind Brother Jiu that he should learn to avoid taboos?
Brother Jiu offered it with both hands and said: "Mint candies are used to remove the taste in your mouth. If you want to eat garlic white meat, leek dumplings, etc., that's fine..."
The eunuchs who serve in the palace are not allowed to eat strong-flavored food for fear that their breath will suffocate the emperor.
Brother Jiu has encountered it twice and found it tasteless.
Kangxi felt his hands were heavy, and when he opened it, there were sugar cubes wrapped in glutinous rice paper.
He dropped one unceremoniously and put it in his mouth, which was filled with the refreshing taste of mint.
Well, it tastes good.
However, he didn't want to praise anyone. He looked at Brother Jiu and said, "Can't you think about something serious all day long?"
Brother Jiu said seriously: "This is so serious. Eat meat without garlic, and the flavor will be reduced by half. You can eat meat as much as you want, even if it's just a few days a year, it's not bad!"
Fujin once said that in life, there are two words: "eat and drink".
People like Liang Jiugong and Wei Zhu have lost most of the fun of men. Even if they are restricted from eating and drinking, they are pitiful.
When Brother Jiu was thinking about New Year's gifts, he stopped getting gold and jade.
It's not just bribery, it's not good to always use gold and silver.
A pack of peppermint candies is a light gift but full of affection.
How nice.
It is enough that everyone knows that he is the generous Jiu Ye.
There is no need to act like a money-splitting boy, throwing money and money everywhere.
Kangxi threw the purse to Liang Jiugong and said: "Brother Jiu has given you a reward, keep it well, I will give you some meat this afternoon!"
Liang Jiugong took it with both hands, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He bowed to Brother Jiu and said, "Old slave, thank Master Jiu for the reward!"
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I only have mint paste now, and I haven't made any other flavors. When I get other flower pastes later, I will make osmanthus and jasmine flavors."
Liang Jiugong said "haha", a little afraid to think about what it would be like if he smelled like osmanthus or jasmine.
Kangxi waved his hand to Brother Nine and said, "Stop grinding your teeth and kneel down!"
Brother Jiu then left Qianqing Palace.
In front of the Qianqing Palace, all the other princes and elder brothers dispersed, leaving only the tenth elder brother, accompanied by his eunuchs, He Yuzhu and Sun Jin.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year last year, all the princes in the palace were asked to come out of the palace. The princes in the palace were also not allowed to go out by my elder brother, so they did not pay New Year's greetings to their biological mother.
As usual this year, this day is the day when the prince can pay his respects to his biological mother.
Unless there is the emperor's grace, the number of times the mother and son will see each other in a year is these few times, on the first day of the year, the prince's birthday, and the concubines.
Now, everyone has gone to the concubines' homes to pay New Year's greetings.
The imperial concubine has passed away, and the tenth prince is left behind.
Brother Ninth was feeling sour, but he didn't show it on his face, nor was he verbose. He directly greeted Brother Ten and said, "Let's go, your Majesty must be in a hurry..."
The tenth prince hesitated for a moment, then nodded and followed.
"Ama Khan is asking about moving to Changchun Garden?" he asked with concern.
Brother Jiu nodded and shook his head, and said: "I asked, but I don't think this is the case. The incident in Xiaotangshan was exposed. Khan Ama was afraid that all the money would be wasted, so she was a little anxious and asked a few more questions..."
Also, Khan Amma was frightened by what happened in Pingjun Prince’s Mansion.
I just thought about preparing more ready-made medicines.
It’s just that Brother Jiu feels that he has a city and knows what can and cannot be said.
It’s not that Lao Shi was lax, it’s that he was in the wrong place.
This is the palace, where all the guards and guards are the ears. In the future, he will listen to his fourth brother's instructions on matters related to the imperial family, and he will speak with gratitude and never say anything bad.
"What's exposed?" someone asked.
"It's just about buying the hundreds of thousands acres of land..." Brother Jiu responded casually, and then he noticed something was wrong.
It’s not Lao Shi’s voice…
He raised his head and looked over, and saw a few people standing in front of him.
It's the fifth elder brother and his eunuch.
It turns out that the person who spoke just now was the fifth elder brother.
After leaving the Qianqing Palace Square, the fifth elder brother first went to the Ningshou Palace and prayed for the New Year alone, and then went to the right gate of Guangsheng, preparing to go to the Yikun Palace.
Finally, I asked the guard at the door and found out that Brother Jiu hadn't come yet, so he was waiting outside.
Brother Jiu smiled and said, "It's a long story. Let's go and pay New Year's greetings to E Niang first. When I get out, my brother will tell you the details..."
The fifth elder brother was concerned and confused. He looked at the tenth elder brother and said, "Your ninth elder brother took money from Yu Qian again?"
The tenth elder brother didn't know what to say and looked at the ninth elder brother.
The ninth elder brother took the fifth elder brother's arm and said: "There is no second time, it will still be the five hundred thousand taels last time. Come out and tell you in detail..."
The fifth elder brother stopped asking and looked at the guards at the door with warning in his eyes.
The guards watch their noses with their eyes, their mouths with their noses, and their hearts with their mouths.
I seem to have heard some incredible news!
The emperor gave Master Jiu five hundred thousand taels of silver!
What a doting concubine and beloved son!
Even the other knighted princes only had 230,000 taels of silver divided into households!
Seeing this, the ninth elder brother pushed the fifth elder brother into the right door of Guangsheng and said: "It's not a rare thing, I know everything I need to know..."
He was talking about the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Yuqing Palace.
The fifth elder brother misunderstood and thought that everyone inside and outside the palace knew about it, so he followed him into the West Sixth Palace.
While talking, the brothers arrived at Yikunmen.
The chief eunuch had already been waiting at the door, bowing to greet them with New Year greetings.
Brother Jiu then signaled He Yuzhu to give him a magenta purse.
In the west room of Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi was talking to Wu Fujin and Shi Fujin. The seventeenth prince, wearing a red dragon hexagram, was sitting in Concubine Yi's arms.
Hearing the commotion outside, Concubine Yi complained to the two Fujins: "It must be Lao Jiu who is dragging his feet."
The chief eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Fifth Master, the Ninth Master, and the Tenth Master are here..."
Both the Five and Ten Fortunes have arisen.
Seventeenth Brother also got up from Yi Fei's arms and looked at the door curiously.
Concubine Yi nodded and said, "Please come in!"
Several brothers filed in.
The tenth elder brother walked behind and followed the two of them to pay New Year's greetings to Concubine Yi. He saw his own Fujin smiling at him.
His heart settled down.
The seventeenth elder brother looked a little unfamiliar with his elder brothers and became cautious.
When Brother Ninth saw this, he felt disgusted and said, "We haven't seen you for half a year, and you don't remember Brother Ninth? I'm such a heartless kid. I gave you food for nothing."
Brother Seventeen was only four years old, but he knew how to talk nonsense. He was unhappy, his eyes were wet, and he turned around and lay in Concubine Yi's arms: "Empress..."
Concubine Yi glared at Brother Jiu and said, "It's Chinese New Year, what are you recruiting your brother for?"
Brother Jiu frowned and said: "Son, tell the truth, Xiao Liu can answer the conversation, why can't he even remember people? He will enter the study room next year, how can he endorse it if he is so stupid?"
Concubine Yi frowned and said: "Why is it next year? Next year we will only be seventeen and five years old, so we are not even old enough..."
The prince usually enters the study at the age of six.
There are exceptions.
For example, the fifteenth brother.
The palace was supposed to be moved into the study in the thirty-seventh year, but as a result, there were many things going on in the palace that year, and Concubine De didn't take any action, and the emperor forgot about it, so it was moved to the second year.
The ninth elder brother said: "Khan Ama said that this year Xiao Shiliu will enter the study room, as well as the second elder brother of Yuqing Palace, the eldest brother, the third brother, and several eldest nephews from the fifth brother's house; next year Xiao Shiliu will enter the upper class room."
In the study, the fourth brother and the eldest brother of the seventh brother’s family enter the palace..."
Speaking of this, he thought of Yuqing Palace and said: "The third elder brother of Yuqing Palace should be the same group next year..."
Yi Fei groped the seventeenth brother's back, feeling really worried.
Entering the study room, in front of you is the palace.
It's okay to be one year older, but I'm really worried about letting go of one year younger.
The seventeenth elder brother whispered: "Madam, my son doesn't want to go to school..."
Concubine Yi hurriedly said: "It's good to go to school. There are many people to play with you. Even in Yikun Palace, there is no one to accompany you."
Brother Seventeen nodded and stopped talking.
Brother Jiu saw him lazily chirping, so he took him down from Concubine Yi's arms and said: "Sit tight, you are already a big boy, you still think you are two or three years old..."
Seventeenth Brother obediently sat down by the kang by himself.
Brother Jiu remembered the purse Shu Shu had prepared, got up and went out.
He Yuzhu, the fifth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were all waiting outside.
Brother Ninth asked for three red purses.
When he entered the room, he quietly handed one to each of the fifth and tenth elder brothers.
Then, he took the purse, handed it to the seventeenth elder brother and said, "Your ninth sister-in-law has prepared a New Year's greeting bag for you!"
Brother Seventeen took it with both hands and said: "Hello Sister-in-law Ninth, Sister-in-law Ninth has something delicious..."
Brother Ninth pointed at his forehead and said, "If you give up, Brother Ninth will be fine?"
Seventeenth Brother handed the purse to Yi Fei and hid behind Yi Fei.
The fifth elder brother was still confused when he took the purse before.
They are the same generation and are all adults, so they don’t need to prepare their wallets, right?
Even if he really had to prepare, he would give it to his younger brother, so why would it be his brother's turn to do it to him?
Only then did he understand Brother Jiu's intention and said: "Your fifth sister-in-law has already prepared it..."
The tenth elder brother also said: "My younger brother and Fujin are also ready..."
Concubine Yi looked at Brother Jiu and said, "Just stay at home and don't get sick. It will be bad for Shu Shu when the time comes..."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "My son is not going anywhere. He is staying in the mansion and will not come out until the Yamen opens."
Concubine Yi looked at Brother Ten again and said: "I have prepared big hawthorn pills here. You can take two boxes back later, and the holy driver will go to the garden. You two can go there if you have nothing to do. Then we will take Buyinduo for a walk."
"It's a good thing to eat well. If you move around more, you won't accumulate food..."
Brother Ten looked at Shi Fujin and said, "Would you like to go?"
Shi Fujin nodded hurriedly and said: "I want to go. It's the New Year now and I'm one year older. Let's go to Hongluo Temple?"
Everyone looked at the two people with a smile.
Brother 10's face turned a little hot, and he nodded and said, "You can go if you want to..."
Everyone did not stay in Yikun Palace for long.
They are all the ones who opened the mansion, and they still have to go back and wait for others to come over to pay New Year greetings.
Concubine Yi called Peilan and came out with three jewelry boxes, which were prepared as rewards for several Fujins.
As for the brothers, there is no preparation.
"I don't know what you are lacking, so I didn't ask anyone to prepare it. Why should I ask you, Fujin, to prepare it for you..."
Concubine Yi said to Fifth Elder Brother and others.
We are not children anymore. We have passed the age of looking forward to New Year gifts.
Only Brother Jiu muttered: "Your Majesty is really good at being a mother-in-law. With a daughter-in-law, my son has to take a back seat!"
Concubine Yi hummed softly and said: "Who can't count on my son? This is so considerate, and it has to be a little cotton-padded jacket!"
…
When they came out of Yikun Palace, everyone was divided into two places.
The female family members are leaving the palace through Di'anmen. The carriages of the fifth and ninth elder brothers are outside Qipan Street.
Shi Fujin whispered to Brother Shi: "I'll wait for you at Di'anmen?"
Brother Ten said: "No, there are many carriages and people are busy today. You go home and wait for me..."
Shifujin nodded obediently.
The fifth elder brother glanced at Wu Fujin.
He had already told his wife about Hongsheng's enrollment.
At first I didn't think there was anything wrong.
Every government has its own style, so concubines are inevitable.
I have never heard of any house where all the children are direct descendants.
But after being reprimanded by his younger brother, the fifth elder brother also knew what was inappropriate.
Liu Gege was a little worried.
He was glad that Hongsheng could study in the palace.
Separate the mother and son, so as not to teach the wrong things later, and the eldest son will become as annoying as Actun.
He thought for a while and ordered the eunuch beside him: "I'm going back with Fujin. You go ahead and take the others back!"
The eunuch agreed.
The tenth elder brother was a little hesitant after hearing this.
Shifujin said crisply: "Di'anmen is close to my home, while Daqingmen is far away. You don't need to accompany me, just accompany Ninth Brother!"
Brother Jiu was standing by, and he heard these words with displeasure.
Why do you feel like you are so pitiful?
After Shi Fujin finished speaking, he took Wu Fujin's hand and walked north along the corridor.
The fifth elder brother followed beside him.
Brother Jiu pointed at the back of Shi Fujin, and wanted to complain to Brother Ten, whether Shi Fujin was careless.
But thinking of Shu Shu's previous reminder, he still swallowed it and said: "You, Fujin, are alone, you can go if you want!"
The tenth brother shook his head and said: "No, my brother Fujin is right. It's a long way here, and it's not interesting for the ninth brother to be alone..."
Brother Jiu snorted lightly, feeling very satisfied.
The brothers left the palace and went home in a carriage.
Shi Fujin, who came back first, didn't get off the carriage at all. When he saw Brother Jiu's carriage arriving, he got out of the carriage and greeted him.
The young couple went back to the Tenth Prince's Mansion hand in hand.
When Brother Jiu saw this, he couldn't help curling his lips and said to He Yuzhu: "Look at this slime..."
He Yuzhu smiled and said nothing.
This is what true brothers do, and they follow the same style as their master.
They are all Fujin fans.
This busy morning actually lasted only two hours.
When Brother Ninth came back, it was just the beginning of the carving.
Shu Shu hadn't had breakfast yet, so the couple had brunch together.
When the dining table was removed, people came to pay New Year greetings.
It was Qi Xi and his wife who brought their sons over to pay their New Year greetings to Mrs. Bo.
After hearing the report, Brother Jiu quickly stood up and planned to go out to greet him. He looked a little nervous and looked at Shu Shu and said, "Shouldn't I go to Dutong Mansion to pay New Year's greetings first?"
What I was thinking about was going there to pay New Year greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Shu Shu shook his head and said: "No need, the second grade of junior high school is just right..."
In her heart, her mother's family is naturally closer to her cousins than her husband's family, but the current world situation is such that family members must come before in-laws.
In the flower hall ahead, I saw Luo gouging out her husband with a knife.
It really comes up as soon as I think about it.
He just mentioned at home that tomorrow, the second day of the Lunar New Year, his girl would be too heavy to return home, and he was very worried.
Otherwise, the children should just come over to pay New Year greetings.
I didn't ask anyone to deliver the letter, I just came here without warning.
Brother Jiu came in and said: "Happy New Year to my father-in-law, Happy New Year to my mother-in-law. I was supposed to go to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, so let's pay our respects first..."
Qi Xi coughed lightly and said, "Happy New Year, brother, we came in a hurry."
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "Don't be a heretic. It's not like other people's families. Your son-in-law's family is just like your own family..."
Having said this, he looked at Fusong and said: "You are too ignorant. We are all family members, not outsiders. Just go to the main courtyard directly."
Fusong bowed and listened.
Brother Jiu led everyone to the main courtyard.
Shu Shu, wearing a bell cloak, was already waiting in the yard.
When she saw Qi Xi and Jue Luo Shi, she stepped forward with a smile, hugged Jue Luo Shi's arm, and said: "I was thinking about Amma and Enie's red envelopes. Amma said that I would give it to my daughter until she is eighty years old. My daughter took it seriously."
!”
Qi Xi nodded and said: "Amma has prepared it a long time ago and brought it to you today!"
Shu Shu listened and smiled happily.
She had mentioned to Brother Jiu before that it would be easier to receive gifts after moving out.
Indeed.
The annual tribute paid to officials in various ministries of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is more generous than when they were in the palace.
Let's put it this way, even if Shu Shu and Jiu Age don't run a business, as long as Jiu Age is appointed as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the money of the two of them will be enough.
But my parents’ New Year red envelopes are different after all.
Shu Shu smiled and said: "I will prepare three portions next year, but we have agreed that my daughter's portion will be the biggest!"
Qi Xi said matter-of-factly: "That's natural. In the eyes of Ama and you, no one can get past you!"
What is a grandson?
Those were the bones and flesh that fell from my daughter's body.
If he had a choice, he would rather not have a daughter, so the couple wouldn't have to worry about it like this.
Brother Zhuliang has long been accustomed to it.
Xiao Liu couldn't help but look down at himself and muttered to Brother Jiu: "It's another day to be a little princess!"
Brother Jiu patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's no use being a little princess. Girls here have to be on a first-come, first-served basis. Your eldest sister has been a daughter longer than you, so she has the deepest bond with her parents.
"
Xiaoliu nodded and said: "Well, I know, the eldest sister is Amma, Eni's first child, so it's rare. When my second brother comes, only half of it is rare. Besides, there is my brother in front of me. When it comes to the third brother, it's rare."
When the fourth brother comes out, it’s just a bit of a surprise, but when it’s the fifth brother’s turn to follow me, there’s nothing special about it.”
Brother Jiu said: "That's because you don't have enough years. Your nine years are definitely not as good as your eldest sister's eighteen years. But it's okay. I'm a man, be more open-minded and don't care about these things. I won't care about them!"
Xiaoliu said with a smile: "Don't worry about it. If you really want to talk about it, eldest sister is also at a disadvantage. When we landed, we were all hurt by our elder sisters. When eldest sister was a child, we were not here yet!"
This is another person who can figure things out clearly.
Brother Jiu actually thought it made sense and said: "Then I won't pick on our mother-in-law anymore. When I was a child, I had a brother who hurt me, and when I grow up, I still have pain. As a younger brother, I won't suffer."
The mistresses three, four, and five next to him couldn't help but look at Fu Song.
The prince's brother-in-law didn't seem to be coaxing Xiao Liu, but rather he seemed to be coaxed by Xiao Liu.
Zhuliang felt a little uncomfortable.
My brother-in-law has grown a year older in vain, but he still looks not very smart.
I'm afraid my eldest sister will have to worry about her at home and abroad from now on.
Fu Song thought it was good.
I hope Master Jiu will always maintain this innocent heart.
At this moment, Shu Shu and her parents were all done talking.
The group of people went to Ning'an Hall.
Shu Shu had already sent away the walnuts and went over to report the news...
*
It's a two-in-one thing. One day is worth 12,000 yuan, so I'm asking for monthly tickets.
The next update will be at 12 noon on February 9th. Welcome to Qidian APP to read.
