Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 188
Chu Yu was speechless for a while, she was brought up by Di Fujin, and she was very close to her aunt, but on the side of her biological mother...

In addition to the Nala family, the Li family and the Ergenjueluo family of the Chunjun King's concubine Fujin also gave birth to younger elder brothers, and the death was a matter of a few years later. They did not think of their sons when they were young.Presumably it was because he originally expected to have a son-in-law, but now that he is older and his relationship with her husband is weak, Chunwang Fujin planned this way.

Chu Yu was in a bit of a dilemma and didn't know what to say. Although she didn't like to think about those matters of fighting for favor and retaining positions, after all, she came out of such a palace, and she understood those things in her heart.

If Di Fujin recognized Hongjing as his name, if she gave birth to a son in the future, this child would naturally be nothing. According to the noble tradition, his status is far above that of the eldest son Hongshu.

Hong Shuxu was fifteen years old, he thought that he would invite him to be crowned son in three or two years at the latest.Although he is a concubine, people inside and outside the mansion have already treated him, the eldest son of King Chun, as his son.Now Chunwang Fujin recognizes the little elder brother, but Hongshu's situation is a bit awkward.

Chu Yu wanted to comfort Na Lashi with a few words, but there was also a senior over there, and she really didn't know what to say, so she opened her mouth, closed it again, and finally just sat quietly with her mother.

Seeing Chuyu's embarrassment, Nalashi couldn't help feeling sad, knowing that her married daughter couldn't say anything, so she broke the dullness and said a few more gossips.

After a while, Xiyun who came back came to report, saying that it was a message from the servants of the two sects that the seats in the front yard were dispersed, and the forehead asked Gege if he would stay for a while.

Chuyu was worried about Nalashi, and was hesitating, but Nalashi had already got up, and told Xiyun: "Go and answer, just say goodbye to Fujin and go out!"

Xiyun went down in response, and Nalashi stretched out Chuyu's big red spring silk mink fur cloak to help her fasten it, and said with a smile, "I'm busy today. After a day of chaos, Erniang won't keep you any longer. Someday I'm free, come back!" As she spoke, her eye circles became moist again.

Chu Yu tightly shook Nala's hand, and finally persuaded: "Emiang, don't worry too much, Ama has always loved Hongshu the most!"

Nalashi forced a smile, nodded, and said in a low voice: "All these Erniangs are spared. Don't worry about our side, so that you can live your life well. If you live well, Erniang will be more at ease. .” Saying that, she led Chuyu to Fujin’s courtyard first, and then sent her to the second gate.

Chu Yu's heart was very heavy, whether it was the biological mother or the aunt, it was not easy for both of them.

Nalashi and Seventh Elder Brother were the earliest, but because they were not noble enough, they only became Shufu Jin. Later, after giving birth to their eldest daughter and eldest son, they were granted the title of Side Fujin.Then, when Di Fujin came in, just in time for Nala's family to give birth to Hong Shu, he carried Fujin to his side, and had the best relationship with Seventh Prince, so Di Fujin was naturally left out in the cold.

At the beginning, Fujin offered to bring Chuyu with him in order to find a way for himself and to show his favor to Seventh Elder Brother.After that, although she also gave birth to two daughters, she still has a little sincerity towards Chu Yu.

It's not like Chu Yu didn't know this, but in her heart, she didn't particularly prefer the birth mother or the aunt mother. In fact, both mothers treated her very well. This matter was really a problem for her.

Cao Yong waited for Chu Yu to come out, and the husband and wife said goodbye to the seventh elder brother and the relatives who had not yet left, and then left the Chunjun Prince's Mansion.

Although Chu Yu had a smile on his face, how could he hide the worry hidden in his expression from Cao Yong?
After returning to Cao's mansion, Cao Yong asked her: "What's the matter? They are not comfortable looking at Hongshu, but Er Niang is not feeling well?" Here, Er Niang is called Nalashi Yes, he called it this way in private, to distinguish it from Chun Wang Fujin's "mother-in-law".

Chu Yu was very worried when he thought about the conflict between his biological mother and his aunt, so he explained the reason.

Because Cao Yong and the male guests were in the front yard, they only took a look at the little elder brother when they were carried out, and no one talked about these miscellaneous things, so they didn't know that Chun Wang Fujin wanted to recognize the younger brother.

Although it was a matter of the palace, he shouldn't say anything, but in order to reassure Chu Yu, he thought about it for a while and said: "Emiang is too worried, this is raised as a 'sister', after all, not a son, this title It depends on what the father-in-law wants! You don’t need to worry about this, the relationship between the father-in-law and the mother-in-law has always been good, and I will definitely explain it to her as soon as possible to reassure her!"

Speaking of the relationship between the palace, Cao Yong also had a headache.Logically speaking, this Di Fujin is a serious hostess, and the other side Fujin and Shu Fujin should retreat.On the other hand, the Nala family of Fujin was the first to marry the king of Chunjun, and gave birth to five children in one breath, and had been in love with the king of Chunjun for more than ten years.On the contrary, this Fujin entered the family late, gave birth to two daughters, and died of one, and he really "respects each other like a guest" with King Chunjun.

Chuyu looked at Cao Yong after drinking, feeling a little tired, so she stopped talking to him about these troublesome things, called Xiyun and Zhu'er to bring in water, waited for him to change his outer clothes, wash his hands and clean his face.

The next day, when Fang arrived at the household department, Cao Yong heard the news that the nine admirals had changed.Tuo Heqi "begged for leave with illness", and ordered the first-class guards to go to Longkodo to be the commander of the infantry, that is, to "admiral the nine infantry troops to patrol and arrest the fifth battalion commander".

Nian Gengyao, the two powerful ministers of the Yongzheng Dynasty, was already the governor of Sichuan. Although he was impeached by the admiral for his ineffective suppression of bandits a few months ago, it was still safe and sound.Because Sichuan is so far away from the capital, although he was dismissed earlier, he still stayed on and was reinstated within a few months.Now, according to the historical development, Longkodo, who became the assistant of Yongzheng's enthronement in the legend of later generations, became the admiral of the Nine Gates.Although he is an "administration" right now, with his qualifications, he should be able to be formally appointed soon.

Right now, Tuo Heqi broke into the city gate because of Prince Shuncheng?Cao Yong remembered what Elder Sixteen said that day, King Shuncheng went to Rehe to plead guilty in July, and the accusation was not Elder Ten, but pushed Tuo Heqi out faintly.

But thinking about it again, he felt that it wasn't the case, and this time the capital's epidemic situation in the infantry yamen was considered a great contribution.It is estimated that because Tuo Heqi has served as the admiral of Jiumen for a long time, it is inevitable that he has some contacts with the prince, which is regarded as a violation of Kangxi's taboo.

Next, there were frequent transfer orders, and the deputy capitals of several banners were transferred.For those outside Beijing, governors and governors of several provinces were involved. Some ordered to investigate local deficiencies, while others were "Ding You" or "retirement", with various names.

Cao Yong counted the days, and there were only 51 days left in the [-]st year of Kangxi. Could it be that the abolition of the prince was a matter of the first month?

King Pingjun and the crown prince had a feud, which is widely known; King Chunjun has always kept a low profile, and among the princes, he only has a good relationship with the [-]th and [-]th princes; Jueluo Seishtu is now a guard in the inner class, so naturally he also has a relationship with the prince. Can't get involved; Zhaojia's mansion is the family of the thirteenth elder brother's wife, Wanyan's family is the wife's family of the fourteenth elder brother, Ning Chun's father-in-law is a disciple of the eighth elder brother, the Sun family came to Beijing...

Cao Yong counted these relatives and friends one by one, but no one has anything to do with the unlucky prince, so he was relieved.It doesn't matter how loud the movement is, as long as it doesn't affect your own body, just stand by and watch the excitement.

Cao Yong is not short of money right now, and he doesn't value power as much as other officials, so he can deal with it calmly, but how many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty are as casual as him?

Although everyone faintly sensed something, but they all had no idea, this is really Sacred Heart speculation!
Just when everyone was tense, Kangxi issued another inexplicable decree on October 25, telling the Eight Banners and the ministers of the Ministry: "Everyone will sign the name of those who practice filial piety below the ministers and above the scattered people." Baozuo. Although this flag does not have it, other flags have it, and those who wish to protect it will also do it. For example, the filial piety of Wenda, Shangshu Mu Helun, and Fu Ning'an is not only known to everyone, but I also know it well .Filial piety is the first of a hundred things. If there are people who practice filial piety, you and others can't be said to have no reason to know."

Only then have a group of court officials and governors been dealt with, how can they transfer to "filial piety"?Is this pointing to the prince?So is the prince abolished, or will he continue to reign?Those who thought they had figured out the holy will before felt confused again.

Even when Mr. Zhuang mentioned the various prefectures in the capital to Cao Yong, it was only four words "surging under the tide".

What makes Cao Yong smile the most is that whether it is Zhengbai Banner Dutong or Hubu Shangshu, Cao Yong is on the list of "those who practice filial piety" in Baozuo the next day.

Cao Yong is the son of Cao Yin, and there are allusions such as "asking for medicine in front of the emperor" and "serving his father a thousand miles away", all of which belong to the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs.

Back in the mansion, when talking about the matter with Mr. Zhuang, Cao Yong just shook his head.Where does this old man Kangxi mean to reward his filial son?I'm afraid I'm going to attack the prince.

Mr. Zhuang also sighed once. After all, he has been an aide in Suo'etu Mansion for more than [-] years, and those "Suo'etu remnants" who were sent down by Kangxi these days have more or less friendship.Although he was cold-hearted about these people's indifference when Suo'etu fell, he also knew in his heart that in the face of the supreme imperial power, who would dare to risk his future life to get close to Suo'etu?

He sighed, thought of himself, and began to think deeply. After a while, Fang said: "Yong'er, this Long Live Lord... If he really wants to spy on you, he will have an explanation to the old man. It's been more than a year, and I just asked about the Cao family's affairs, and didn't ask about the relationship between your father and your father and son. Could it be that the old man was arranged to help Yong'er?"

Cao Yong was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "How is it possible? What kind of character am I that can make him worry so much? Or maybe I'm afraid that my husband will be troubled, so I deliberately find a job to relieve my boredom!" Speaking of this, clicked Nodded: "Baoqi is really the reason. I heard from my father in the past, and I have seen it myself in the past two years. Today, I treat my old minister very well!"

Cao Yong will not be self-righteous, let alone Mr. Zhuang.The two talked a few words, but they still didn't understand Kangxi's intentions.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded outside the study.

"My lord, sir, the Banyan Court sent someone to say that Aunt Lian is about to give birth!" It was Xiaoman who came over to reply.

The banyan courtyard is not in the second gate, but in the east courtyard in front.

After hearing this, Mr. Zhuang stood up abruptly and walked out quickly.

Just as Cao Yong wanted to follow, he felt that it was wrong. It was unlikely that he could intervene, so he hurriedly asked someone to send a letter to the second gate, telling Chuyu and Zijing to come out and help with the cooking.

Aunt Lian Lianqiu of this Banyan Courtyard was one of the eight maids that Mrs. Li bought in Beijing in the 48th year of Kangxi.At that time, Cao Yong said that he would not add people to his yard, and asked Zijing to choose two stable waiters for Mr. Zhuang from among the crowd.

Among them, sisters Lianqiu and Xiqiu were the oldest and behaved properly, so they were sent to the Banyan Courtyard.In mid-February this year, because Lianqiu was pregnant, Mr. Zhuang arranged a banquet and took both sisters into the house.

According to what the doctor said earlier, this Lianqiu was pregnant for more than a month in early February, and this was born around the Spring Festival, so she should have been born in late September and early October.The mansion prepared the delivery room and midwives early, but after waiting for more than half a month, Lianqiu still had no intention of giving birth.

Mr. Zhuang was anxious at first, but after the doctor saw him and said his pulse was fine, he gradually calmed down.Somehow remembered that the ancient sages were all born with visions, so he couldn't help showing off to Cao Yong a few times.

Although Cao Yong didn't know much about the matter of childbirth, he also knew that it would not be a good thing sooner or later, but it was not easy to show it in front of Mr. Zhuang.After all, Mr. Zhuang is over 50 years old, and he is thinking about his old man all the time, and he is really afraid that he will hurt himself in a hurry.

In order to be on the safe side, Cao Yong specially asked the imperial doctor Chen to come over and give Lianqiu a pulse, and he also said that the pulse is stable and there is no need to worry.

*
This is the first time Cao's family has added a baby in recent years, not only Chuyu and Zijing hurriedly brought people over to look after them.Even Madam Zhang from Huaiyuan couldn't help coming over with a cane and a jade dragon.

Although the jade dragon has not yet accepted it clearly, she has long been Cao Song's housemate, and now seeing that Lianqiu is about to give birth, her heart is indescribably sour.Because Cao Song has not formally married, according to everyone's rules, the people in her room are not allowed to give birth early, and they drink contraceptive pills every month.

After a while, Cao Song, who came back from school, and Wei Hei, who was in the west courtyard, also got the news and came to Rongyuan to hear the news.
