My father-in-law is Kangxi

Several ministers in charge of the guards felt a little baffled.

When the Mulan paddock was sieged before, the guards did not have a single day, and they used colored flags as units.

But when they thought of the tenth, thirteenth, and fourteenth elder brothers who came with them, they knew it well.

It should be to let the three little princes hold the flag and coax the children to play.

If the three-flag vest is used, the momentum will be great, and the Nanyuan paddock is not that big.

There are only a few hundred guards in the upper three banners, which is suitable for small-scale hunting.

They didn't know that Kangxi had already planned to sort out the guards.

It's just that it has something to do with the interests of the three leading guards, so he didn't say anything.

He has already ordered Seventh Elder Brother to draw people, stare at tomorrow's encirclement, and make assessments based on everyone's riding and archery results.

Kangxi said the arrangement, but he didn't mean to explain, he waved his hand to signal them to go down.

Liang Jiugong stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Sibeile is seeking an audience outside."

Kangxi was a little surprised, it was already noon, and it was time to eat.

He nodded and said, "Let's pass it on!"

When Liang Jiugong went out, the fourth elder brother was talking to Fushan: "Master Fu, the guards are here, they are outside."

Fu Shan showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, he nodded and said: "Then servant, go and have a look."

It was not Fushan's original intention that the youngest son quit the bodyguard office.

Before, the old wife and the eldest daughter-in-law had some grinding teeth, but he didn't take it to heart. He also had a rough plan in mind for the future of the eldest grandson, that is, to make up for Luan Yiwei first.

After a few years, Erhe's qualifications came, and he was promoted to the first-class bodyguard to fill the deputy capital commander, and the eldest grandson was transferred to the bodyguard office.

He didn't expect his youngest son and youngest daughter-in-law to have such an idea. After hearing some sour words from his elder sister-in-law, he immediately withdrew and found a place for himself.

These days, father and son are also fighting coldly.

Even the old couple were not happy, the old wife said that he was an afterthought, since there was an arrangement, she didn't know to say it in advance.

In fact, Fushan was a little disappointed with the eldest daughter-in-law, so he deliberately refused to grant the letter, and also wanted to see what the eldest grandson was doing.

If he was really instigated by E Nie and couldn't tolerate his uncle, then he wouldn't be at ease in handing over the family inheritance to the eldest house.

There are many mistakes.

became the present situation.

When the fourth elder brother and Liang Jiugong entered the house, Fushan went out and met his son.

Seeing him coming out, Erhe said cautiously, "Ama..."

The gate of the palace is not a place to talk, so Fushan said with a straight face: "Be on duty, don't be too fast when you go back to the city to ride a horse!"

Erhe respectfully agreed.

Fushan left with a straight face.

In the palace, Kangxi had already read all the letters from brother Jiu, and was a little excited when he saw the harvest on it.

But when he saw the "half-divided land", he calmed down again, and instead fell to the last page, on the fifteen stones planted by Daming Huangzhuang.

Not to mention the intensive cultivation of the greenhouse in the Nine Brothers’ house, there is also sufficient water, which cannot be guaranteed by ordinary land outside.

But even if it is only half of the greenhouse, and the output is the same as that of the former Dynasty Huangzhuang, the output is amazing.

He felt sullen, pointed at this one and said, "What do magistrates do? They don't pay attention to this one?"

The high-yielding crops that existed in the previous dynasty have been popularized for so many years since the founding of the country.

The fourth elder brother is more concerned about people's livelihood. Since he talked about taking over the trial planting in the ninth elder brother's mansion in early November, he asked someone to investigate and inquire about it, and he really knew about it.

He said: "My son has checked Wanping County Chronicles and Daxing County Chronicles, and found several records. At the end of the previous dynasty, a county magistrate wanted to promote potatoes. The first year's harvest was very good, but the second year it was not even [-]%. Potatoes consume soil, so we need to use fertilizers to keep up, and we can't continue to stubble. The harvested potatoes should have been improperly preserved, turned green and sprouted, and became poisonous. It's over..."

When Kangxi heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "Since it can't be preserved, how can we replace the food?"

If it is not a substitute for food, but only used as a vegetable, there is no need to promote it.

The fourth elder brother said: "My son also asked the ninth elder brother about this. Before the ninth elder brother tried to plant, he had a plan. One is to make cornstarch, and it can also be used to make vermicelli and vermicelli."

After hearing this, Kangxi said, "We need to see how much cornstarch and vermicelli can be produced from a hundred catties of potatoes, so that we can see the need for promotion."

Raw flour, vermicelli, and vermicelli are all ingredients that are currently available in the Imperial Dining Room.

It's just that mung beans are mostly used as ingredients, which are extremely easy to preserve and can indeed fill your stomach.

If potatoes can also be used to make cornstarch, vermicelli, and vermicelli, then there is no need to worry about preservation.

If it can reach one catty out of ten catties, that would be great.

At present, the most grown millet and wheat in the suburbs of Beijing is two stones in the top-grade field, and less than one and a half stones in terms of net grain.

The middle field and the lower field have less harvest.

In contrast, this potato promotion has something to do.

The fourth elder brother said: "It takes three and a half months from planting to harvesting potatoes, and they can be planted in rotation with crops, so you can harvest twice a year..."

Kangxi shook his head and said: "On paper, since you found out that potatoes consume land, then it should not be planted in rotation with crops, unless there is suitable fertilizer that can enrich the land..."

Speaking of this, he thought about the fourth elder brother's trial planting in the next spring, and pondered: "Choose a dry field in Huangzhuang near Changchun Garden, plant corn and potatoes, and try to plant potatoes again after the corn is harvested. "

The fourth elder brother wrote it down carefully.

Kangxi thought of corn, and said, "Why did you only mention potatoes and corn?"

He has personally been to the greenhouse, and the area where corn is planted is twice as large as potatoes, so there should be a lot of land.

Although that is not delicious, it can be regarded as a decent food without processing.

The fourth elder brother said: "My son doesn't know either, but the ninth elder brother sent the guard Erhe over to deliver the letter, and the son prepared Khan Ama to ask him, and told him to wait outside."

Kangxi was really curious about this Erhe.

Since he was the bodyguard that Brother Nine wanted to mention, Kangxi asked Zhao Chang to inquire about it.

Even if he is the son of a confidant and veteran minister, he still needs to look at his character and conduct himself, so as not to mislead Brother Nine.

As a result, he discovered his strange fate.

"Bazi Chunyang", "Children's Fate"...

Kangxi Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism all dabble in the three religions, and he is also familiar with Western learning, so he scoffed at the theory of fate.

Too coincidental.

In addition, Shu Mulu's family still has the title of first-class duke, Kangxi wondered if someone had tampered with it, and asked Zhao Chang to investigate carefully.

As for the suspect, it was Erhe's not very virtuous elder sister-in-law, Jue Luoshi.

The women of Abatai's family are all domineering and courageous.

It turned out that the first time they said they were married, they were actually cheated into marriage, and the other party was a sick child, who died after a cold.

The second time the other party didn't die, but eloped with his cousin. The family was afraid of shame and offending Shu Mulu's family, so they directly said he was dead.

Only the third time, it was really unlucky, just like what was said outside.

The bride was thirsty, ate the apple, choked it down her throat, and died.

Later, Erhe married no one else, but Da Gege from Shuncheng Palace, the eldest daughter-in-law of Dong E's family and Li.

When Erhe came in, he was in his twenties, tall and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked a little rustic.

In addition, he was filial to his parents and courteous to his elder brother, and Kangxi's impression became even better.

Kangxi said: "Brother Jiu only asked people to dig potatoes, but what about the corn?"

Erhe got the order from the ninth elder brother in advance, and knowing this, he said: "Jiuye said that the corn is still watery, and it can be dried again, so as not to break it early and produce shriveled seeds, and let people harvest it after it is completely dry after New Year's Eve." .”

Kangxi nodded, and asked again: "What is brother Jiu doing at home?"

Erhe pursed his lips, feeling numb.

"Ok?"

Kangxi looked over with majesty in his eyes.

Sweat dripped from Erhe's forehead, he bowed his head and said, "The slave is on duty in front of the mansion, so I don't know what's going on in the main courtyard."

He actually knew something.

For example, Brother Jiu and Fujin Jiu got up very late, had breakfast late, took a walk in the yard, and then went to dig potatoes in the greenhouse.

It's not that they are staring at it deliberately, or that the servants of the Prince's Mansion are talking about the master or something, but that the big kitchen is in front.

Also, Brother Jiu came to the front when he took Jiu Fujin for a walk.

He witnessed Jiu elder brother holding Jiu Fujin's hand, taking care of it like a big baby.

However, Jiufujin has a big belly, which is inconvenient to look at, and it's Jingui's time.

Although it was not someone else asking, but the emperor asking, but he also shut up.

I don't know which one to say and which one not to say.

He chose not to speak.

Kangxi looked at him, waved his hands, and said, "Kneel down!"

Erhe agreed, but glanced at the fourth elder brother.

This is to ask if there is a reply.

The fourth elder brother thought about making potato flour and vermicelli for potatoes, so he couldn't wait. He was afraid that the ninth elder brother would not know the importance, so he sent the potatoes directly to the dining room as a dish, so he said to Kangxi: "Khan Ama , son, go back and have a look!"

Kangxi glanced at the clock next to him and said: "Then there's no need to be so anxious, I'll turn back after eating."

The fourth elder brother responded and took Erhe down.

After leaving the imperial court, seeing that Erhe was still nervous, the fourth elder brother comforted him: "It's okay, the emperor didn't mean to blame you..."

Erhe said embarrassingly: "The slave has been on duty at the front, and Master Jiu called the slave over after writing the letter..."

So his previous sentence is not considered bullying, right?

The fourth elder brother was not picky either, and said: "It's time for dinner, deal with me, and then go back to Beijing together..."

Erhe was very cautious, so the fourth elder brother stopped talking and took him to the place where he stayed.

Su Peisheng went to fetch meals.

Brother Ten came over first, his forehead was sweaty, and he walked eagerly.

Seeing Erhe, he asked anxiously: "What did Brother Jiu send you here for, but what happened to Brother Jiu?"

Concern is chaos.

He directly thought of Shu Shu.

Brother Nine cares most about Sister-in-law Nine and Sister-in-law Nine's children.

Twins are precious because it is not easy to conceive.

The birth of brother nine and sister-in-law nine is even more difficult.

Ever since Shu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Elder Brother Ten was very worried.

He was afraid that Shu Shu would not be able to sit still like Fujin Bafujin, and that his brother and sister-in-law would not be able to bear it.

Erhe got up early, and said: "There is nothing wrong with the mansion. It was Master Ninth who asked someone to dig potatoes in the morning. He wrote to Fourth Master about this..."
