Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

Duobu came out of Luhua Building, and hurried back to Yanshuang Building ahead of Kangxi.

The fifth elder brother drank very happily and didn't pay much attention to him when he came back.Only the eighth elder brother asked lightly:
"What does my brother-in-law think of the lake view?"

"Oh, yes, when the peach blossoms bloom in spring, it must be even more beautiful."

At this time, the elder brother came back from the female guest's building, saw the fifth elder brother and the others making too much noise, and warned in a low voice.

"Khan Ama will return as soon as he speaks, and you can drink some hangover soup."

Brother Jiu was in high spirits, and when he heard this sentence, he was depressed.

"Khan Ama doesn't like wine very much, and we don't usually allow us to drink too much. It's so easy to seize this opportunity, drink two more glasses, and have to put it down again."

Dobu was worried that he didn't know how to test Seventh Brother naturally. It happened that this complaint came together and he planned to make a fuss.

"Or, it's over here, go out and continue drinking?"

The fifth elder brother was in the army, he had seen a lot of hands and eyes, and he was able to arrange everything, so he suddenly became interested.

"I'm going, how about you?"

The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother also said to go.Dobu stared at Seventh Brother and asked him.

"Seventh brother won't show you face?"

"Where is brother-in-law? I don't know where to go?"

"Don't worry, the ninth brother and the tenth brother are not very old, how can I lead them badly."

During the few years when the elder brother went to Junggar, he was trusted by the emperor, which was visible to the naked eyes of the ministers in the court.So gradually, some people began to seek refuge, offering gifts and bribes.Even without Duobu's silver, his days would be getting richer and richer.

Even rich enough to afford a foreign house.

"Brother, can you arrange it? We have to go to a clean place."

Dobu knew that the eldest elder brother recently took over a small house and two Yangzhou skinny horses from an official in the south.He just hasn't found out who the official is.

The eighth elder brother who had been silent just now also expressed his willingness to go.

Surrounded by the expectant eyes of his younger brothers, the elder brother couldn't say no.

"Okay, go as soon as you want. But the ninth brother and the tenth brother can't stay too late. The empress dowager knows, I have to deal with the family."

Just after the discussion here, Kangxi came back.There is a hope of going out to play, elder brother is very honest at this table, everyone stands up to say hello.

The banquet broke up just after the end of the day.Kangxi wanted to go back to Qingxi Bookstore to take a nap, and Big Brother and Duobu took advantage of his happiness and came forward to ask for an order.

"Duobu has been in the capital for almost a month, and he hasn't taken care of him seriously. We have been to Mobei together, and we will add the ninth and tenth brothers, and we will have a lot of fun for him today."

Kangxi probably guessed what they were going to do, and smiled to express his permission.

"Old Ninth and Old Ten must return to Changchun Garden according to the time, and the rest are up to you."

Dobu knelt down to thank him, Kangxi patted him on the shoulder, got up and drove away.The fifth elder brother and the others endured until the last moment, and when Kangxi couldn't hear them at all, they couldn't wait to discuss it.

"I just said, brother-in-law asks, Khan Ama will not refuse. Brother-in-law is a proper person, Khan Ama often says. Go, go!"

Big brother's new house, coincidentally, is near Axiang's house, not too far from Ruixiangfang.Brother Nine caught a glimpse of the signboard by chance and beckoned Dobu to look outside the carriage.

"Brother-in-law knows that this is the property of the fourth sister. Among so many sisters and sisters, I admire her the most. This business has been in business for more than ten years, and now it is not only the number one in the capital, but also in Shanxi, Jiangning, and Shengjing. Go. Tenth brother, you have half of the shares left by Concubine Wen Xi, you know best. Tell brother-in-law, how much money do you get every year?"

Elder Brother Ten is a young master who spends whatever money he has, so he doesn't understand these things.

"Before Er Nie left, she asked the fourth sister to help manage the property, saying that I didn't have a plan, and I was afraid of losing it. However, as long as the withdrawal does not exceed 1 taels a year, the fourth sister will not ask me what I do with the money. I Just according to 1 taels of flowers, I lived quite comfortably."

Just at this point, the carriage stopped and everyone went down together.

Two tables of fine wine and dishes were prepared in the house early.The elder brother thought that talking like this was not affectionate enough, so he formed a table and seven people sat down.The two Yangzhou skinny horses are just playing the pipa and singing, so they don't sit with them.

Seventh elder brother had never experienced such a scene before, he just kept drinking and eating without saying a word.Dobu gradually brought the topic to Shu Tai.

"Brother, do the Fujins in the mansion know about this good place?"

"It should be that they haven't heard of it yet. Let them tell when they hear the wind."

The fifth elder brother just married Fujin this year, and knew the pros and cons of it, so he interrupted with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, before we get married, let's learn more. Fourth sister, I know that she will never allow brother-in-law to take a side room."

"That's not necessarily the case. Your fourth sister still knows the general idea, and asked someone to come out and ask me who is suitable for a trial marriage."

Whether Duobu doesn't want a trial marriage or accepts the imperial doctor's examination, it is all done quietly under the order of Kangxi, and none of the older brothers know about it.

"Where do I know who is suitable? But, don't you often mention that there is Shu Tai next to the fourth princess, who is very good-looking. I thought about fixing her, and I guess I won't be wronged. I'm afraid that the fifth and eighth brothers will be unhappy. .”

The eighth elder brother wants to be comfortable, mainly because he can take the opportunity to win over Haifeng, and the beauty is second.Hearing Dobu's tone was very serious, he decided to let go.Originally, the wife's personal maid, according to the custom, was reserved for the husband as the housekeeper.As the forehead, Dobu has priority.

"I don't mind, my brother-in-law should ask for it. Where's Fifth Brother?"

"Hey, a court lady, brother-in-law likes it, so it belongs to brother-in-law."

Brother Nine and Brother Ten, with their four eyes glued to the two singers, echoed.

Compared with Shu Tai who always does things with a straight face, the beauty with eyebrows and eyes who can talk is more worthy of their attention.

Seventh elder brother listened harshly, saw which leg under the table belonged to Duobu, and kicked it.

Dobu understood, and didn't continue this topic. He used the excuse of convenience and went out to wait for Seventh Brother.

Sure enough, not long after, Brother Seven came out angrily.

It is hard to find a proper house in the inner city. The present one was obtained after a lot of trouble by the gift-giving officials. After adding the furniture, it was hurriedly handed over to the elder brother.Dobu liked one of the jujube trees that was bearing fruit very much. He didn't dislike its crooked posture. He stood under the tree and ate a few jujubes as bright as red agate.

"Seventh brother, this is quite sweet, do you want it?"

"Brother-in-law, I, I have something to tell you."

"Oh, well, tell me, I'm listening."

Seventh elder brother finally did not hesitate this time, and directly confronted Dobu.

"Brother-in-law, Shu Tai, don't ask her to be Ge Ge for a trial marriage."

Well, that's pretty much it.

If a man is like a mother-in-law even if he wants a woman, it won't be a big deal.

Thinking of this, Dobu got out from the branches of the jujube tree and solemnly asked Seventh Brother.

"Tell me, why?"

Weishi is from [-] to [-] in the afternoon; Yangzhou Shouma is the reserve of concubines. This heinous human trafficking industry mainly caters to the aesthetics of Lianghuai salt merchants, and it flourished during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
