Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1093
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, several things happened.

Nian Xi and his wife went out of Beijing. It is said that Nian Xiyao's wife fell ill, and Nian Xi and his wife went to serve the sick.The couple left in a hurry, and even the Cao family got the news two days before they left Beijing.

Cao Yong felt surprised. If Nian Xiyao was "seriously ill" and had no children, Nian Xi, a nephew of a direct relative, would be able to say that he was sick in the past; but Mrs. Nian Xiyao was "unwell", so he dispatched Nian Xi It's a bit of a fuss to go with a wife.

Surprise is surprise, according to etiquette, Cao Yong still went to visit Nian's house, and brought the prepared medicinal materials and supplements, which can be regarded as practice for Nian Xi.

After not seeing him for several days, the gloom on Nian Xi's body has faded a lot, but his expression is neither sad nor happy, nor worried.

Seeing this, Cao Yong knew that Mrs. Xiyao's "serious illness" was just a cover, otherwise Nian Xi would not be so relaxed.

Not only Nian Xi was like this, but the old man's expression was also gentle and peaceful, without restlessness.

The old grandpa heard from his grandson that Cao Yong suggested that Nian Xi should be released, and seeing him make a special trip to practice it, he was very grateful.

For the young Patriarch of the Cao family, at first he approached him boldly to save his descendants from misfortune.But Cao Yong has always been gentle and courteous to the elders, and he does not embarrass people because of his status and personal grievances.

Then Nian Xi married Da Gege, and the two became in-laws. The old man was very happy for his eldest grandson, and always felt that Cao Yong was restrained and transparent, and marrying him would be beneficial and harmless.

I don't want to, but in less than a year, I accepted Cao Yong's "life-saving grace".

"Fu Ruo came here to see you off. It's really intentional. Speaking of which, this is a family matter of the Nian family, so it's not appropriate to gossip to disturb Fu Ruo's ears. But you are not an outsider, and the old man has nothing to hide. The long house has no heirs, the old man Just make the decision and adopt my grandson to the long house." The old man said to Cao Yong with a smile.

The old man used to call Cao Yong "Nephew", but after Cao Yong and Nian Xi became brother-in-law, he changed his title.

When Cao Yong heard this, he couldn't help being taken aback.

It is not uncommon for the adoptive nephew to be the heir, but it is somewhat unreasonable for the eldest son to adopt.He had more doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to ask too many questions.

No wonder Nianxi and his wife went south, it was inappropriate for the nephew, niece and daughter-in-law to serve their aunt, but the heir and heir-wife should go there.

Nian Xiyao is the governor of Guangdong, and he is the governor of Guangdong. He is the parent of a province in Guangdong.When Nianxi left, Cao Yong had nothing to help.However, Cao Yong still informed Nian Xi of Cao Fang's address in Guangdong, nominally asking Nian Xi to take care of him in his spare time.In fact, I was also afraid that when Nian Xichu came to Guangdong, there would be something not cheap, so I wouldn't bother the elders, and there was a place where I could ask questions, so that the couple would not be blindsided.

After Nian Xi and his wife left Beijing for a few days, the news of Nian's eldest son's adoption gradually spread in Beijing.

I heard that it was the old lady of the Nian family who asked for an order, and the grace of the emperor and the imperial concubine, to adopt the eldest son of the second house of the Nian family, Nian Xi, to the eldest house as his heir.

Putting it in another family, the son of the second wife adopts the eldest son as the heir, even if the son of the first son adopts, the status is improved.But in the Nian family, the title and official position of the second house Nian Gengyao was much higher than that of the long house.

In this way, a lot of gossip came out.

The center of the gossip was not Nian Xi who went south, but Nian Gengyao's stepwife Xiang Junjueluo and Nian Gengyao's concubine son Nianfu.

Nianfu has been very active in the capital for the past two months. As the young master of Niangong's mansion, he went in and out to socialize.

Compared with Nian Xi who was recuperating by his grandfather's side, Nian Fu, the younger brother, was too powerful.

Many people sympathize with the "weak". Nian Xi's eldest son was born an heir, and in the gossip of the people in the capital, he was "forced" by his stepmother and concubine, which added a bit of sadness.

These words are so eloquent that even Li Shi and Chu Yu have heard of them.

Mrs. Li also sighed, "People's hearts are not ancient", and he was afraid that his daughter-in-law would be worried about her sister and brother-in-law, so she tried to comfort her.

In addition to being worried, Chu Yu was a little annoyed, and discussed with her husband: "If it is true as the rumors say, the Nian family committee is really deceiving people too much. The seventh son-in-law is not only the eldest son of the second wife of the Nian family, but also He Shuo's son-in-law. Did they bully them for nothing? Did you discuss it with Ama and ask the clan to decide?"

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sixteenth elder brother succeeded Yaerjiang A as the imperial order and took charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.Along with that, Chuyu, who is a niece, has a little more confidence.

Cao Yongdao: "It's mostly rumors, how can you believe them? Don't worry, Nianxi's adoption was arranged by the old lady of the Nian family. He can still let the eldest grandson suffer?"

After hearing what her husband said, Chu Yu felt relieved.

Cao Yong recalled that Nianfu used the guise of Nian Gengyao in the capital to go around and make friends with the powerful children, and said: "Hongshu and the others didn't have anything to do with Nianfu, did they?"

Chu Yu shook her head and said: "No, everyone knows that the relationship between Nian Fu and the Seventh Brother-in-law is not good, why would Hong Shu and the others associate with him?"

Cao Yong nodded and said, "It's fine if you don't have one."

Yongzheng was still wary of the brothers and nephews of the princes.In the past two years, he didn't make it clear that he had an affair with Prince Cheng, who had competed with him for the throne, but he also hung him up high and no longer had contact with Liubu Shiwu.

Prince Cheng Xu accepted his fate. In the past two years, he kept a low profile and left the prince Hongsheng to take care of all the communication in the palace.

However, the emperor's dislike for his elder brother did not decrease with his avoidance.Hong Sheng has already been reprimanded several times, and there are rumors of deposing the son.

Cao Yong was afraid that it would involve a few brothers-in-law, so he asked such a sentence.

In addition to Nian Xi going south and the sixteenth elder brother being promoted to the imperial order, the third thing that happened after the Mid-Autumn Festival was the queen's decree that the eldest daughter of the uncle's mansion, Tong Jia? wife.

The capital was in an uproar.

Although everyone knew that Mrs. Li from the uncle's mansion jumped up and down to find her husband's house for her daughter, but no one expected that she would find Prince Zhuang's mansion.

Right now, among Prince Zong's residences, Prince Yi's residence is very popular, but it is still no match for Prince Zhuang's residence.

As the hereditary prince's mansion, Prince Zhuang is the third prince in the lineup, second only to Prince Kang and Prince Jane.Right now, the one who inherits the throne is the emperor's own brother again, and the weight of the prince's mansion has increased a bit.

Although the second elder brother Hongpu is a concubine, he is the actual eldest son of the palace and has always been favored by the sixteenth elder brother.There is no heir in the palace, and the future heir position will mostly fall to Hong Pu.

Isn't Li Si'er's daughter about to become the future Prince Fujin?
Everyone is jealous of the affection of the uncle's mansion, who can invite the empress to marry him; and when they say that the eldest girl of the uncle's mansion is not worthy of being an elder brother Fujin, they are envious of the emperor's special treatment of Prince Zhuang's mansion.

Until this time, the marriage of the eldest girl in the uncle's mansion was settled, and those who had pinched their eyes and looked down on Li Sier's mother and daughter remembered the coveted dowry in the uncle's mansion.

If you marry a girl from the country's uncle's family, the dowry is enough to support several generations.

How many people stamped their feet, envious of the good luck of Prince Zhuang's mansion; how many people gloated and waited to see the jokes of Prince Zhuang's mansion.

With such a marriage, with a mother in law like Li Si'er, I don't know how much fun I will have.

"The sixteenth master's plan to slow down the army?" Cao Yong felt incredible when he heard this. When he saw the sixteenth elder brother, he said very bluntly: "Is this plan too bad? Marrying a wife and marrying a daughter , Half a catty is right, both are married to the uncle's house, what's the difference?"

Brother Sixteen seemed dissatisfied with the result, and smiled wryly, "How can I be the one to make the decision? If I don't hold my nose and admit it, can I still resist the order?"

"Huh?" Cao Yong was a little surprised when he heard this, and lowered his voice and said, "Could it be that the emperor is reluctant to part with the dowry from the uncle's mansion, and wants to have a hand with Master Sixteen?"

Elder brother Sixteen was eating tea, and after listening to Cao Yong's words, he didn't catch his breath and almost choked.

After coughing several times, his face flushed, he pointed at Cao Yong and said, "Okay, I won't see you in a few days, Fu Ruo is so courageous, he dares to say anything!"

After Cao Yong finished speaking, he also realized that he had made a slip of the tongue.

Yongzheng was not so stingy to be so stingy, even if he didn't wait to see the uncle's mansion, he wouldn't even worry about his cousin's dowry money of several 10 taels of silver.

I am a little outspoken and suspected of slandering the king.

Seeing Cao Yong chattering, he kept silent, Elder Sixteen stopped teasing him, and said honestly: "Furuo thinks too much, I see what it means, the emperor really loves the eldest daughter of the uncle's mansion. Said She was sensible and courteous at a young age, and she took the initiative to keep filial piety for her aunt, and she was also kind to her aunt. It's just that she was troubled by her biological mother, which made her a laughing stock of the rich and powerful in the capital at a young age, and she couldn't bear it. Instead of letting her biological mother make random arrangements, If you give it to a messy family, you might as well point it to me."

There are several meanings behind the phrase "not falling forbearance".

Even if the birth mother of the daughter of the dignified uncle's mansion is from a bad family background, no one else can take pity on her.

Cao Yong looked up and said in a low voice: "Is this going to start?"

He originally thought that Yongzheng would take care of Nian Gengyao first, and then clean up Longkodo, but now it seems that they are all going to be taken down.

Brother Sixteen nodded slowly, and said: "Look at the meaning, it won't take a year and a half. But the Tong family is honorable, even if there are many things in Long Ke, it is not a disaster of the Qing family, and it will not affect the married daughter. with the clansmen."

If Li Si'er married his daughter to someone else's family, after Longkodo was questioned, even if the other party did not divorce his wife, Yumin would not have a better life without the help of his father and brother.

Yongzheng's arrangement in this way is a bit more humane.

"When is the wedding date?" Cao Yong asked.

"Early next year. Even so, Hongpu is only thirteen. He married a daughter-in-law when he was thirteen, which is several years earlier than me as an old man." Elder Sixteen felt a little helpless, and said: "What else can I do, Quan To be raised by multiple daughters. If he is really a good child, it is also Hongpu's blessing."

Such a marriage is indeed like a farce.

The matter has come to this, Cao Yong can only comfort: "The eldest daughter of the uncle's house, our old lady has seen it before, and she praised it again and again. I think it is really good."

Elder Sixteen let out a long breath, and said: "Finally, I won't suffer. A dowry of hundreds of thousands, even if Hongpu doesn't inherit the palace, can make them both rich for the rest of their lives..."

These words are strange, he could regard Hong Pu as his heir before.

Cao Yong's heart was moved, and he said: "Master Sixteen, is this three blessings?"

Elder Sixteen couldn't help it anymore, his shoulders were trembling, and he said with a smile: "The letter I just got yesterday, Fujin found out the pulse..."
