Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1063 The Bed Warmer
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, let me stay with God Bless! Ah, let us stay!" Hong Pu circled around Cao Yong, begging with his eyes and face full.

Although Tianyou didn't say anything, but pursed his lips and followed Hongpu, it seemed that he was unwilling to return to Beijing.

When Cao Yong saw this, he couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "You and Tianyou are at the age of studying. It has been more than three months since I left Beijing. How long will you delay?"

Hongpu stared wide-eyed, and said: "Brother-in-law, you are not trying to teach me and God Bless spells and finances, this is also learning."

Cao Yong rolled his eyes, it was when he took them to inspect the military village before, he was afraid that they would be naughty and dishonest, so he taught them for a few nights.Now, the dispatch of troops to Qinghai is imminent, and he is busy with food, grass, soldiers and salaries, so he has no time to teach students.

He suppressed the smile on his face and said: "This is the arrangement of the prince. The prince is concerned about you in Beijing. You also sympathize with the prince's love for his son."

Hong Pu was embarrassed when he heard the words, he lowered his head and stopped talking.

Cao Yong turned his head and said to Tianyou: "Since I have taken on a new job for my father, I am afraid that I will not be able to go back years ago. There are women and children in the family, which is really worrying. You are getting older, so go back early to share your mother's worries. Good. The township examination will be held in February next year. Whether you want to participate or not is up to you. Make up your own mind. Don’t force yourself.”

Tianyou listened with lowered hands, and respectfully agreed, no longer showing reluctance, but with a worried look on his face, he frowned and said: "Father, my son will go back to Beijing with the guards of the palace, Wei Bo and the others should stay here side, to save father from not having enough manpower."

Cao Yong thought for a while, and said: "Wei Hei can stay, and let Wu Sheng take half of his entourage back with you."

"Father..." Tianyou wanted to say more.

Cao Yong waved his hand and said: "You don't have to worry, presumably in a few days, there will be guards from the capital, and there is no shortage of manpower here."

This is also a common practice. Whenever there is a war, even if the emperor does not personally conquer, the imperial guards will be sent to the front of the army.

This was the case when the fourteenth elder brother was the general, and Nian Gengyao was no exception when he was the general of Fuyuan.

After hearing this, Tianyou breathed a sigh of relief and stopped talking.

On September [-]th, Hongpu and Tianyou left Ganzhou with the head of the palace, and set off for the capital.

At this time, ten days had passed since Nian Gengyao broke camp.

Although Nian Gengyao took away [-] elites, Ganzhou Daying was not deserted.Civil servants recruited from Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan and other places, driving horses and camels, came to Daying in Ganzhou continuously.

Nian Gengyao had asked for a decree to build a city between Ganzhou and Xining.

Although it is only mid-September, it is already snowing in the northwest.

These civilian husbands who have arrived, together with the [-] weak brigades drawn from the Ganzhou garrison, will undertake the task of building the city.

This is really not a good time to build a city, but the imperial decree has been issued, and Cao Yong has no room for doubt, so he can only make arrangements as far as possible, and distribute tents, cotton clothes, grain, etc. in full, so as to build a new city as soon as possible and avoid freezing to death Several people.

Although the errands are trivial and complicated, but fortunately, the interpersonal relationship is simple, saving the communication and strife in the capital, Cao Yong's life is quite worry-free...

Capital, Prince Chun's Mansion.

It's been a long time coming, it's been postponed until now, and finally it's the day when Qi Gege will give away makeup.Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a standard system for the marriage of clan girls, but in addition to the dowry prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to the rank, there are princes and Fujin who add dowry to Qi Gege in the palace.

Although it was slightly inferior to the dowry of Da Gege and Fujin's descendants who were the first to leave the court, compared with the concubine daughters of other palaces, Qi Gege's dowry was very decent.

And because she didn't touch Mongolia, and married the nephew of the most favored concubine in the palace, which of the family members would not come to support her?
Fifty years after the reign of Emperor Kangxi, among the female family members in the emperor's hidden residence, the Nian family has become the only favored one, especially in recent years.In the three and a half years since the 50th year of Kangxi, the Nian family has given birth to three little elder brothers.Although two of them died young, there is still Brother Fuhui standing next to them.

Although the first emperor treated the fourth elder brother Hongli differently when he was alive, but the fourth elder brother has no mother to rely on.

Today, among the four princes of the emperor, the birth mother of Fu Hui, who is the youngest, has the most honorable status, and the Nian family of her mother's family has won the emperor's grace.

With the fortunes of Nian Gengyao and Longkodo in sight, how many people are thinking about Conglong's achievements.The power and wealth dazzled everyone's eyes, making them selectively forget the tragedy of "Nine Dragons Seizing the Inheritance".

Among the courtesies of the clan and female relatives, Chuyu and Wu Gege, who had returned to their mother's house, had to accompany and chat with each other.

As the hostess of the Cao family, Chuyu is used to socializing. She has always been good-tempered in front of others, with a smile on her face, and can say a few words to the female family members who come to say hello; Chu Yu avoided going out.

The two sisters went not to the side, but to Wugege's yard before she got married.

The wife of the eldest son, Borzigit, got the news, brought a few maidservants, and personally delivered some tea and fresh and dried fruits.

Because there are many female guests who need to socialize, Chu Yu and Wu Gege don't want to keep her. After thanking her, they invite her to accompany Qi Fujin.

After Mrs. Borzigit left, Wu Gege sighed, and said: "It's hard for my sister-in-law. In the past two years, Erniang has been in poor health, and she takes care of the housework in the house."

In the early years, Qi Fujin didn't like Borzigit, thinking she was not smart enough, after more than ten years of getting along, she gradually became harmonious, and even Wu Gege was willing to get close to his elder sister-in-law.

Seeing the harmony in the palace, Chu Yu was only happy, and said, "Emiang also only trusts her, and she is not at ease if she is replaced by another housekeeper."

The two sisters chatted a few words, talking about Qi Gege who was about to get married, Wu Gege hesitated, and said: "I heard from the old mother next to Er Niang that our brother-in-law has two concubines who have been concubines for many years. It's all given by the elders. Seventh sister is young, so I don't know if she can hold her back?"

Chu Yu had also heard of this matter.

Seven Fujin was very dissatisfied with this matter.But at Nianxi's age, if there is really no one in the house, it would be a waste of thought.

"Since you are married in Beijing, under the noses of Ama and Erniang, the Nian family still dares to be angry with Seventh Sister? Fifth Sister, don't worry!" Chu Yu is not worried. They are all maids and concubines, and wanting to get rid of them is just a matter of words.

Wu Gege's in-law's family is no less populated than Cao's family, with several layers of elders inside and out.

She had been angered by her mother-in-law's elders. Seeing Chuyu's indifferent look, she snorted coldly and said, "Eldest sister said it easily. Back then, your family was like the Cao family, treating your daughter-in-law like a daughter? Even the seventh younger sister If you become a princess and become a daughter-in-law, you still have three obediences and four virtues."

Chu Yu heard her speak harshly, and didn't want to argue with her, so she smiled and said nothing.

Wu GeGe saw her graceful demeanor and pleasant eyebrows and eyes, and felt extremely glaring.She touched her withered face, then looked at the still fair and supple face of her elder sister, not sure whether it was jealousy or envy.

Mingming Chuyu was five years older than her, and seemed younger than her.

Wu Gege raised his eyebrows, with a bit of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "When Huang Mafa was alive, it took four or five years to put down the Zhungeer rebellion; now that Erut's rebellion, it will take a few years. Years of hard work. It is said that the northwest is bitter and cold, so the eldest sister is willing to let the eldest brother-in-law suffer, and don't need to send two proper people to go there?"

Speaking of this, she paused, and said casually: "The one who knows the basics is always better than the one brought back from outside."

Chu Yu had thought about this a long time ago, and when she knew that her husband had been appointed as a food and grass officer, she wrote a special letter to mention it.Now her husband's reply letter has not yet arrived, but according to her settlement with her husband, [-]% will not agree to this matter.

She didn't expect that Wu Gege, who was still in good condition just now, turned her face and talked about her family affairs in a strange way.

Chu Yu was surprised in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said calmly, "Please trouble fifth sister, I'm thinking about this too. I've already selected a manpower, and I'm just waiting for my brother-in-law's permission." If so, send people to the northwest."

Wu Gege said that on purpose, because he wanted to see Chu Yu's ugly and jealous face. Seeing her motionless as a mountain, he raised his neck in anger, panting heavily, and his expression became stiff.

Chu Yu was afraid that she would start a fuss, that there would be too many people, so others would see the joke, so she got up and said, "Fifth Sister, sit down first, I have something to ask Er Niang." room.

Wu Gege looked at her back, his tense little face suddenly became confused.

Chu Yu left the Wugege courtyard, but did not go to Qifujin's main room, but sat in a side hall, and asked the servant girl to invite Mrs. Shizi.

Seeing her here, Borzigit was a little surprised, and said: "Big Sister, why are you here? It's a mess here, where is the place to rest? If Big Sister doesn't dislike it, you can go to my room for tea .”

"The banquet is about to start, what's the fuss? I invited my younger siblings to come over to ask. My younger siblings are by Erniang's side, but have I ever heard Erniang mention that my fifth younger sister is not feeling well recently?" Chu Yu asked.

"Big sister, did you see it?" Borzigit said: "I fainted once last month, and my mother went to see it on purpose, and said it was a weak spleen and blood loss. The imperial doctor prescribed two prescriptions, saying it was slow Take it easy."

Chu Yu frowned and said, "It's just a weak spleen? When I saw her last time, I didn't think anything of it. When I saw her today, my complexion was dull. There was also a yellow spot the size of a mung bean on the white of my left eye, and I was more likely to get angry than before. "

When Borzigit heard this, he was taken aback and said, "I didn't notice this."

Chu Yu said: "She loves petty things, so it's not good for me to say anything in front of Er Niang, otherwise she will be more careful. In the future, my brothers and sisters will help to pay attention to it, and if there is anything wrong , let Hongshu arrange for someone to invite the imperial physician."

Mrs. Borzigit solemnly agreed, and a little maid happened to come to look for her, and the aunt and sister-in-law went to the banquet hand in hand...

Ganzhou, Zhizhou Prefecture, Dongyuan, Cao Yongxing is here.

Looking at the quilt wriggling on the kang, Cao Yong felt very strange.He stopped in his tracks and couldn't help wondering if he had gone to the wrong room.

He looked around and found that there was his usual pen and ink on the table, as well as a copy of "Northwest Wind and Things" that he had read in his spare time, and he confirmed that this was his house.

His eyes sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Who? Come out!"
