My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 94 Out

Although I had to get up early, I should have taken a rest early, but I was afraid that it would be inconvenient outside, so the young couple would have to linger for half the night, and then I would sleep in a daze around the third watch, and was called again at the fifth watch.

The young couple yawned and struggled to get up.

Brother Jiu looked satisfied, and raised his eyebrows at Shu Shu with a bit of complacency.

Shu Shu was really out of breath, and only after two hard blows did she feel relieved.

Is this sick?

I'm afraid it's a disease of lust!

The luggage has been packed a long time ago. There are more than a dozen large boxes, including the bedding and clothes of Shu Shu and Brother Jiu, and the five or six boxes are filled with "road vegetables" prepared in advance.

Along with the four maids, there were also two servants, He Yuzhu and Sun Jin, and two young eunuchs who had just started working on errands.

There are five carriages allocated to the second institute, three for passengers and two for luggage, which is not rich.

Elder Brother Ten is so obedient, knowing that Shushu has prepared "road dishes", so he arranges for food to fit in the car of Sansu.

Elder Brother Shi didn't bring any female relatives, but only a few eunuchs, divided into three cars, and the luggage he brought was not as cumbersome as that of the second school.

Brother Nine naturally wouldn't be polite to him, so he shared half of the luggage and went there, and the two schools also worked together.

In order not to alarm the common people, Shengjia had to leave Beijing before the Kaicheng Gate.

It was still dark, and the team set off in a mighty way.

They walked out of the imperial city through Shenwumen and Di'anmen, and then they didn't go all the way north to Andingmen, but went all the way east, walked through Dongzhimen, and left the capital.

There are tens of thousands of people in the royal family, ministers of civil and military affairs, guards of the Three Banners, guards of the Eight Banners, and all the entourages and servants. The team stretches for more than ten miles.

At first, Shu Shu only felt it was a novelty, but when she left the city gate, she became depressed.

Outside Dongzhimen is the Imperial Road, which is smoother than ordinary official roads, but the current carriage does not have a shock absorber.

Fortunately, due to the continuous procession, the speed of the carriage was extremely slow, and it didn't feel too bumpy, but it was also extremely boring. There were also the sound of wheels, the sound of horseshoes outside, and the dust brought up by the carriages and horses, which was really dirty and noisy.

Xiao Song followed in the car, covered in hair, muttering in a low voice: "This is too difficult for Fujin, how many days will it take to get to Shengjing?"

Shengjing is the Shencheng of the later generations. Shu Shu calculated the distance from Shencheng to the capital in her mind. It is about [-] kilometers, which is [-] miles, which is still relatively short.

Shengjia will detour from Mongolia to Shengjing, and the distance is more than [-] miles.

I heard that the speed of travel is fixed, sixty miles per day.

Only one-way, it will take a month, not counting the intermediate stop time.

The so-called "meeting alliance" and pilgrimage will be carried out during the Holy Driver's itinerary.

"One month? Just bear it, it will be fine when you arrive at the station..."

Shu Shu yawned and said, also bored.

Because the carriage was shaking, it was not suitable for reading, and being shaken so much that I couldn't fall asleep, I just felt that the time was extremely long.

Ninth elder brother, as the prince's elder brother, is not with Shu Shu, but rides with tenth elder brother and follows the Chinese army to order.

But it's just a name, there are eldest elder brother, third elder brother, fifth elder brother, and seventh elder brother. They are all princes who have been entrusted with errands and knighted. They cooperate with a few ministers who lead the guards to make all the arrangements properly.

As for the emperor's side, the prince's elder brother was not left behind, but the six ministers who followed him took turns in front of the emperor.

Today is the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment, and the two ministers are serving in front of the imperial court.

The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother are two idlers, riding around with the royal driver.

There was a thirteenth elder brother beside him, and it was the first time he came out as a follower, and he was excited everywhere: "Ninth brother, are we going north? Shengjing is in the northeast of the capital?"

"I want to inspect Mongolia, so I will go to Miyun and go through Mongolia..."

Nine elder brothers have walked this road twice before, and I remember it clearly.

The thirteenth brother thought of the accompanying queen mother and two concubines: "That's going to Horqin? With so many tribes in Mongolia, isn't Horqin the strongest?"

Speaking of which, the descendants of Emperor Shizu all have Horqin blood, and they are naturally close to Horqin.

As for the Abahai Department where Concubine Duan Shun belongs, Brother Thirteen did not mention it.

That was Elder Brother Shi's Yue's family, he was afraid that if he said something wrong, he would end up in Elder Brother Ten's bad luck.

Brother Jiu nodded: "Monan Mongolia has sixteen divisions and forty-nine banners, and Horqin occupies four divisions and sixteen banners. It covers the largest area, has the largest population, and is the strongest... If you count Mobei and Moxi Mongolia, the military strength It is also second only to Khalkha Mongolia..."

The thirteenth brother was excited: "I heard that there is a 'Nadam' conference on the grassland, where there is a competition of wrestling, horseback riding and archery. It would be great if I can catch up..."

Brother Jiu heard "archery", inexplicably thought of the five-strength bow used by Shu Shu, and looked back at the team behind.

Several royal convoys followed behind Yujia, separated by the carriages of the Empress Dowager and the concubine, and the Zhulun carriage of the Second Institute could be seen in the distance.

The tenth elder brother had been upset for a long time, and couldn't stand the thirteenth elder brother's chattering, so he looked up at the sky.

Although it has been the beginning of autumn after the three volts, it is still hot.

It was early when we set off, and the weather was still cool. Now we have been marching for more than two hours, and the scorching sun is here.

"Brother Jiu, why don't you go back to the carriage to rest and stop drying yourself?"

Brother Ten suggested.

Brother Jiu looked around, confirmed the approximate address, and said, "It's halfway through the trip, and I'm going to take a break soon... I'll go back then..."

Brother Ten swallowed after hearing this.

We set off early in the morning and had an early breakfast, so we were already a little hungry.

"Then tell Khan Ama that my younger brother will send brother Jiu to rest..."

Brother Ten said with a cheeky face.

Brother Jiu glanced at him, but didn't expose him.

Brother Thirteen was still smiling, but shut his mouth honestly.

He's not a fool, how could he not notice Brother Ten's dislike?

But Elder Brother Ten is from a nobler background than him, and his preface is also in the front, so can he argue about why he doesn't like himself?

After a while, the team took a break.

The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother also dismounted. They were just about to go to Yuqian when Sun Jin trotted over.

"But what's wrong with Fujin?"

Brother Jiu couldn't help but worry when he saw this, after all, it was the first time for his wife to travel far away.

Sun Jin hurriedly said: "I don't know about this slave either, but Master Fujin sent this servant to pass on a message. If the master is free, it will happen once in the past..."

Liang Jiugong was ordered to come, and when he came closer, he heard this sentence, and passed Kangxi's oral order: "Jiu Ye, the emperor said, it's the first time for Jiu Fujin to go out, so let Jiu Ye go and take care of him more, and don't have to serve the imperial court... "

Brother Jiu listened with his hands down, worried about Shushu, and immediately led the horse over.

The tenth elder brother was not easy to keep up, and he ignored the thirteenth elder brother. He lowered his head to caress his mount, a white horse, given by Yi Sang'er, a scholar of the Wenhua Palace and official minister.

Ethan, speaking of it, he is still the cousin of the princes.

His stepwife Hesheli is the daughter of Soetu and the cousin of Empress Xiaocheng.

However, although he is Suo'etu's son-in-law, Weng and his son-in-law are about the same age, and they are notorious for their political disagreements.

Suo'etu was very wary of Niu Gulu's family, but Yi Sang'e went the other way and showed his favor to the tenth elder brother, the prince from Niu Gulu's family.

*
After getting away from Yujia, Brother Jiu got on the horse and arrived in front of Shu Shu's carriage in a short time.

"What's wrong? Is it motion sickness? Or do you want to get out?"

Brother Jiu got into the carriage, looked at Shu Shu, and asked.

Because Shu Shu didn't sleep well last night, she was very sleepy and sleepy, completely different from her usual radiant appearance.

The carriage is such a big place, Shu Shu waved his hand, sent Xiaosong to the carriage behind, and then pulled Brother Jiu closer: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't sleep much yesterday, and I'm a little tired... the sun is half high, and it's sunny outside, sir. Come with me in the car..."

Brother Jiu realized later: "It turns out that you called me back because I was afraid that I would be exposed..." When he was speaking, he was stunned for a moment when he remembered Liang Jiugong's oral order just now.

"what happened?"

Shu Shu saw his strangeness.

Brother Jiu said Liang Jiugong's message, and sighed: "Just now I was thinking that Han Ama treated his daughter-in-law with compassion and kindness, but now thinking about it, it means sending me back to take the car..."

A loving father? !
Brother Jiu was not used to it very much, and with a few twitches said: "I'm afraid I really think my son is a useless person..."

Shu Shu married into the palace for more than a month, and met Kangxi four times in total, which really overturned the established impression.

Maybe it's because he's an upright young man, and he hasn't reached the stage of paranoia and corruption.

He seems to be a distant parent, serious and considerate.

Shu Shu glanced at Brother Jiu, this mouth really needs to be cleaned up, even if it is cared and cared for, be grateful and appreciate it, wouldn't it be good to be a good son?

What do you hate?

Brother Jiu was really tired, so he directly pulled Shu Shu to lie down: "I need to rest for an hour, squint..."

Shu Shu rubbed her stomach, feeling a little hungry.

She was just growing up, even though she was lying in the carriage all the time, she was still hungry.

The box on one side contained dried pork and dried plums.

Shu Shu wiped her hands, grabbed two slices of dried pork, stuffed one into Brother Jiu's mouth, and ate one by herself.

Before roasting, the pork jerky is brushed with honey and sprinkled with sesame seeds. It tastes salty and fragrant.

Brother Nine was eating, his face became more smiley, and when he swallowed it all, he turned his head and looked at the box: "How well prepared are these? If there are many, give some to ten and thirteen, as a cushion..."

"I have prepared quite a lot, but it's fine as snacks. I'm not full. I also have some spiced tofu and pork dates, which are all in the car behind. I asked someone to send some over..."

Shu Shu is very generous and willing to be considerate in small things.

There are ten elder brothers, and there are fifth elder brothers in the retinue. When preparing to eat, they prepared a lot more.

Brother Jiu sat up, picked up the curtain of the carriage and called He Yuzhu over: "Go to the carriage behind, pack up a portion of spiced tofu, pork dates, pork jerky, etc., and send it to Master Shi and Master Thirteen..." He said , thinking of other people, couldn't help frowning: "Forget it, prepare two copies, and send the other to Fifth Brother..."

He Yuzhu left immediately.

Brother Nine came back to lie down dispiritedly, and complained: "If it wasn't for Fifth Brother, I wouldn't want to prepare for them and waste good things for nothing... It's just that I landed a few years earlier and was awarded the title, so I just act as Big-tailed wolf..."
