Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1352

Cao Yong took the crowd and walked outside the gate.

I saw a piece of red confetti on the ground, and several palace guards picked up bamboo poles and set off firecrackers "crackling".

Amidst the smog, the figures of Elder Sixteen and Chang Sheng loomed.Behind them, two carriages were parked.

Although the firecrackers blared, those horses were all draft horses specially trained by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and they still stayed there obediently without any disturbance.

Seeing this, Cao Yong couldn't help laughing.

He didn't hide the matter of his housewarming from Sixteenth Brother.

It's just a custom in the capital, the banquets to congratulate the housewarming are usually held ten months after the housewarming, and the Cao Mansion is no exception. A post has been sent long ago, and the guests are scheduled to have a banquet in the new house on the eighth day of May.

Unexpectedly, Elder Sixteen came to join in the fun today.

The sixteenth brother over there was talking to Changsheng, but Changsheng saw someone coming out from here, and saw that the two elder brothers had arrived, so he hurriedly informed the sixteenth brother.

Brother Sixteen walked over with Changsheng.

Cao Yong also greeted him here, and met the sixteenth elder brother.Cao Xiang followed behind his cousin and greeted Elder Sixteen.

Elder Sixteen waved his hand and called Cao Xiang to get up, and then said to Cao Yong: "It happened that I just finished my errands in the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was free. I remembered that you moved today, so I came over to have a look. The other side is okay, but You are too quiet. The neighbors here are either clan relatives or dignitaries, why are you moving so quietly, you have to inform the neighbors..." At this point, he pointed to the two carriages: " This is a built-in firecracker, just listen to it..."

The sound of firecrackers is too loud.

It made the sixteenth elder brother shout at the end of his speech.

After yelling, he couldn't help laughing, patting his ears, and said: "This movement makes Grandpa's ears buzz..."

Cao Yong turned his head and asked Cao Xiang to help him take care of the moving matters, and he led the sixteenth elder brother to the flower hall.

A few walls away, the sound of firecrackers was still loud, but not as deafening as outside the gate.

Thinking of the two carts full of firecrackers, Cao Yong couldn't help stroking his forehead: "Master Sixteen, isn't this too ostentatious?"

For this boundary, Cao Yong is quite satisfied. Just saying that it is close to the Yamen, he can sleep for half an hour in the morning, but when he mentions "neighborhood", he can't help but give him a headache.

The archway in Xidan happened to be the handover of the Xianghong Banner and Xianglan Banner garrison, and there were many royal residences.

The front door of Cao Mansion’s new house is directly facing the backyard corner gate of Fourteenth Beizi Mansion; across the street from the back garden of Cao Mansion is Prince Jian’s Mansion, and on the same street as Prince Jian’s Mansion is Prince Li’s Mansion.

Two streets north of Prince Li's Mansion is Prince Zhuang's Mansion of Brother Sixteen.

Less than two miles southwest of Cao Mansion is Prince Ping's Mansion.

In addition, there is the Prince's Mansion of Jigezhi County, which is not far to the southeast of the new residence of Cao Mansion.

How can the palace in this circle not give Cao Yong a headache.

Fortunately for him, the "near neighbor" can be counted as someone else's house, the Fourteenth Beizi Mansion.

Fourteen Beizi Mansion, due to historical reasons, all children will behave with their tails between their legs within a few decades, and will not become domineering.

Elder Sixteen raised his eyebrows and said: "Swagger? Furuo doesn't even look at the boundary here? Modesty is necessary, but humility is not, otherwise it will not be the way to get along in the future. Even the masters of the mansion It's good, but it's hard to guarantee that there will be slaves who don't know the height of their eyebrows. This is a house bestowed by the emperor, and everyone must be aware of it."

Cao Yong said with a smile: "I can't say what the sixteenth master said, otherwise I will be suspected of despising the clan."

No matter how much the royal family fights internally, they are consistent externally, and their honor cannot be violated.

Cao Yong was full of joy when he got the gift house at first. After all, the emperor intended to rectify the name of the Li family, and he was close to the government office.

Although in this world, he has become a high-ranking official, he still likes comfort in his bones, so he naturally feels that his residence is close to the government office.

But after he understood the specific families living in this area, he felt very nervous.

Brother Sixteen gave Cao Yong a sideways look, and said, "Don't be a good boy for taking advantage of it! Before you move, you sent out He Qiaoqian's post. Isn't there any other meaning?"

Cao Yong laughed twice and said: "I just wanted to post the post earlier and look respectful, but I really didn't think about it."

What is the intention, but I want to borrow the tiger skins of the clan masters so that I can gain a foothold in this land where the princes Baylor gather.

Brother Sixteen saw that he was still stubborn, and said: "You don't have to worry too much. Even if there are more clans around here, there is nothing to worry about. The number of clan relatives that your family has been in contact with in these years has been less? They are relatives, but the distance is different. You are a household manager, and you don’t have time for short-term entertainment with your parents. The relevant communication is only done by Da Gege. If there are really thorns, the emperor will be watching."

Cao Yong nodded, understanding the unfinished meaning in the sixteen elder brother's words.

These clans can just stay away, don't worry about being bullied, and don't bother socializing.Even if someone really wants to bully others, just hug the emperor's thigh.

Cao Yong felt more at ease, Elder Sixteen took out his pocket watch, looked at the time, and said: "I heard from Changsheng that Mrs. Tai is not here, and it's almost time... someone will come down from the palace in the afternoon, should I pick Mrs. Tai over?" ..."

When Cao Yong heard this, his heart moved. Dao leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "How many plaques?"

Brother Sixteen pointed at Cao Yong with his fan, and said, "That's the imperial pen, how many more? You are not greedy!"

Cao Yong smiled and rubbed his chin, it's not that he was greedy, but this house was originally a princess mansion, and it became the new house of Cao's family, so the main house of Li's family must have an imperial treasure.

The big head gave Yongzheng all the rewards, how could he pull down this little head.

As for himself, of course he also has a little bit of greed.

The house of the Cao family has not been given a hall name since Fengrun was divided into clans.

Fengrun's hall name uses the word "Anding", and it is called Andingtang Cao's family to the outside world. This "Anding" is the birthplace of Cao Bin, the famous ancestor of the ancestor.

Before Cao Yin was alive, he hesitated for a long time about the appointment of the hall name, but he didn't make up his mind in the end.

The hall name of the family, or the place of residence, or the virtues of the ancestors, or the way of prospering the family, may be used as a good name.

The house of Cao's family lives in the capital, so "capital" cannot be used as the hall name.

There is nothing outstanding about the virtues of the ancestors. The greatest achievement of the ancestors is that they are not only the wife of Baosheng.

Assigning a hall name to the family, although it is not effective at present, it will also add appearance when the children and grandchildren enter the scholar forest and make friends with scholars.

Before Cao Yin died, he didn't draw up the hall name himself, but he also wanted to wait for the imperial treasure.

Before Cao Yong moved, he saw that most of the plaques of the new house here were empty. Thinking of this, he somewhat looked forward to it.

It's not because of Longwangchuan, but because the emperor bestowed a plaque, which is not too unusual, especially since the minister's mansion was bestowed by the emperor.

Seeing that Cao Yong didn't ask questions, Elder Sixteen couldn't hold back anymore, and said: "Your wish has been fulfilled, just have fun secretly..."

Cao Yong was so determined that he hurriedly called Zhang Yi over and told him to go back to the mansion to pick up the grandparents of the Li family...

Two cars of firecrackers went off for half an hour, and at the end of the street, many people came to visit.

Even Prince Jian's mansion to the north of Cao's house was also alarmed by the sound of firecrackers.

Regarding Cao's move, the happiest people around here are Prince Jane and his wife.

The precious daughter not only married in Beijing, but also married under her nose, so she didn't have to work so hard to meet her in the future.

Yaerjiang'a heard the constant sound of firecrackers in the distance, so he asked the steward to inquire about it.

After knowing that it was the sixteenth elder brother's handwriting, Yaerjiang couldn't sit still, and went out of the mansion in ordinary clothes, and walked to the gate of Cao's mansion in less than half a cup of tea.

Outside the gate of Cao Mansion, red confetti was spread all over the floor, and the air was still filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder.

Although Yarjan'a didn't wear a yellow belt glaringly, his arrogance can be seen at a glance.

Seeing him approaching, he stood loudly at the door, making it obvious to others, without revealing his identity or name.The servant outside the door didn't dare to be disrespectful, so he hurriedly turned his head to inform Zhang Yi.

On Zhang Yi's side, although he felt slander against the "guest" who came without warning, he still walked quickly to the gate and took a look.

Seeing this, he himself was taken aback.

A Prince Heshuo, without a servant, stood outside the gate in homely clothes.

Zhang Yi has been with Cao Yong for 20 years, so he knows the weight of Yaerjiang A, and he treats his temper like thunder.

He hurriedly turned his head and asked Cao Xiang, who was still in the Lion Court, to come forward to entertain the guests, while he hurriedly went to report to Cao Yong.

Yaerjiang Ake is not only the prince of the clan, but also the in-laws of Cao's mansion, his cousin's in-laws. Because Cao Xiang met him, he was respectful and close, so he directly invited him to the flower hall.

Although Yaerjiang had only met Cao Xiang a few times, he knew everything about the Cao family. He knew that the brothers in Dongfu lost their father when they were young, and they were brought up by Cao Yong and his son.

So Yarjana also felt pleasing to the eye when he looked at him, and his originally haughty expression became much calmer.

Seeing that the sixteenth elder brother who followed Cao Yong out to welcome him was amazed.

Yaerjiang Ah Xian said to Cao Yong: "Master Cao is overjoyed..."

In the eyes of the world, "housewarming" means backgammon. Unless the family is in decline and the days are getting worse, moving is a happy event.

Cao Yong quickly replied: "I am happy with you, I am happy with you, but I have nothing to do with being an official, so let the prince be clean..."

A while after the sound of firecrackers fell, Yarjan Ah arrived, so it goes without saying that he must have heard the sound.

Yaerjiang waved his hand and said: "You don't need to apologize, you have always been prudent, needless to say, the culprit who disturbed the cleanliness of the master is the one next to you."

The sixteenth elder brother shook his fan and laughed: "It's just watching Cao Yongniao move quietly and it's too deserted, so come here to join in the fun; Wang Ye, you are an in-law, don't say it's icing on the cake, you have to spoil the fun?"

Yaerjiang snorted, and turned to Cao Yong: "I heard from the housekeeper that you have decided to move today, and you want to come and have a look, but you are afraid of disturbing your move... This is because I know that there are unexpected guests coming to the door, so I have the cheek to do it." It's..."

The two princes were bickering, where there was nothing Cao Yong could say, they could only say some clichés of "flourishing and shining", and invited Yaerjiang Ahua Hall to have tea.

Cao Xiang pleaded guilty and continued to stare at the front yard.

After only sitting for half a cup of tea, Yaerjiang couldn't sit still, and wanted to take a look at this strolling house...
