Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 515

After coming out of the Zongren's mansion, the sixteenth elder brother and Yaerjiang went to beekeeping, Wei Zhu happily received the reward from Yaerjiang, and went out of the city to return to the front of the imperial court.

Although it was almost dusk, the sun had not yet set, and it made people lazy and didn't want to open their eyes.

It's almost February, the weather is getting warmer, and the snow on both sides of the road has melted.Occasionally, half a branch of magnolia can be seen exposed from the roadside wall, holding flower buds, dispelling the chill of the whole winter.

The sixteenth elder brother rode on the horse, walking side by side with Yarjan Ah.

Yaerjiang pondered for a while, but finally couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, and asked, "Why does the matter between Yanshou and Cao's family involve the eighth brother? Long live... what do you mean?"

Elder Sixteen heard this, shook his head and said: "I don't know, I haven't heard that it has anything to do with that side? I'm also wondering, how come the emperor thinks about myna again? If it's like before It's like, it's good to rest for a while, after a long time, Huang Ama's anger has subsided, and the starling may have a turning point... Now the situation will only make the father and son feel worse..."

In the end, there was a bit of sadness in his words.

Although the eighth elder brother moved the mind that shouldn't be moved and violated the holy taboo, but the family relationship of flesh and blood, why is this so?

Thinking of the elder brother and the deposed prince who are now imprisoned, and the thirteenth elder brother who has been reduced to an idle clan, the sixteenth elder brother can only sigh helplessly.

The brave eldest son of the emperor who once made Huang Ama proud, the deposed prince born by the Yuan Dynasty who has been the crown prince for more than 30 years, and the thirteen elder brothers who followed the holy driver to tour the south and north at an early age, these three are Huang Ama's favorite son.

In Huang Ama's heart, his son is like all the people in the world, he must first obey him as the emperor, and then he will occasionally put down the emperor's face and show the appearance of a loving father.

The three favorite elder brothers, because they offended his emperor's authority, were circled by him, useless, useless, indifferent.

Not to mention the eighth elder brother who has never been close, there is no way to make him treat him differently.

The farce of the courtiers recommending the crown prince after the "abandoned prince" caused the eighth elder brother to cover up and join the team of winning the heir apparent.

Recommended by more than half of the courtiers, the name of this "virtuous king" was not in vain.

But he was a fan of the authorities, recommended by half of the courtiers, what does this mean?Even before the crown prince was abolished, not half of the ruling and opposition parties would dare to pat their chests and say that they supported the crown prince.

Is the prince really indispensable?Apart from indiscriminate personal morality, is he so useless?
University scholars Zhang Ying and Li Guangdi are the crown prince and Taifu. Huang Ama has taught by example for many years, but they have not made any progress?
To put it bluntly, it's just that Huang Ama Gangang is used to arbitrariness and does not allow power to be dispersed...

The sixteenth elder brother was thinking wildly, and Yaerjiang Ah was not idle, thinking that the eighth elder brother was suspended from his salary.

How did it get involved with the eighth elder brother?
Could it be that the person who encouraged that idiot Kui Hui to play tricks was the eighth elder brother?

It's just fine, what is Eighth Brother doing with these hands and feet?The Cao family is not only the relatives of Prince Chun and Prince Ping, but the most important thing is that Cao Yin has returned to Beijing.

Although Cao Yin's title is only uncle, he usually doesn't like to be lively and rarely goes out of the house to socialize.
But anyone with a discerning eye should be able to see that Long Live Lord transferred Cao Yin back to the capital just for him to be honored and raised.

The Cao family has been in the south of the Yangtze River for many years, and some people have forgotten the relationship between the Cao family and the Long Live Lord...

Hitting people doesn't slap people in the face. If you want to step on the Cao family, you have to see whether the Long Live Lord is willing or not.Since the grace is there, if you act like this, isn't it courting death?
It's just that everything has a cause and effect, so who is plotting against the Cao family, and why...

The beekeeping lane is not far from the clan's mansion, and it only takes a cup of tea before the sixteenth elder brother and Yaerjiang Ah arrive. .Although Yanshou confessed to what happened the night before, the case has not been finalized yet, so it is not too much trouble to see him.

When they entered the beekeeping lane and saw Yanshou, Brother Sixteen and Yaerjiang couldn't help but change their colors.

Yanshou was arched, lying sideways on the ground, the pain was condensed on his face, and he was completely out of breath.Beside him, there is a legacy.

The dead cannot speak.After pleading guilty, he was afraid of being exposed by others and bringing trouble to his son.That's why he used the method of "suicide in fear of crime" to silence himself, right?
Poor parents all over the world, Kui Hui, that bastard, it is his great blessing to have such parents.

Wu Zuo had already given Yanshou a general inspection. There was no external injury, and he had not drunk anything, so he did not die of poisoning.

I asked a few jailers who were walking outside at that time, but they couldn't explain clearly.

After a while, a jailer whispered: "Master Baylor hugged his stomach and cried out for pain, maybe he swallowed gold?"

The sixteenth elder brother and Yaerjiang E'a heard the words, and their expressions became solemn.

After another half an hour, Laidu and Longkodo got the news, and they were very surprised to see Elder Sixteen here.

The adults in front of me, those who are in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, those who are in charge of internal and external law and order, and those who are in charge of the clan, are quite suitable to stay here.It's not appropriate to stay by yourself.

To attract the attention of the gang of censors who were staring and looking for trouble all day long, it was greasy and crooked, but not disgusting enough.

Thinking of this, Elder Sixteen, after seeing the adults, said goodbye and went back to the palace...

In Cao's East Mansion, the upper room in the inner courtyard.

Seeing her son coming back alone again, Zhao Jia couldn't help frowning, and said: "It's been several days, and you have to be on duty again, why doesn't the wife come back? Is it because the mother-in-law insisted on staying, or the daughter-in-law just wanted to enjoy herself? Will you come back?
Cao Songhan smiled twice, and said: "Mother, mother-in-law is fine, she didn't force her to keep it, but the son was greedy for the food and drink in front of him, drank a couple of extra sips, and forgot to mention this. It’s okay for my son to go again in a day.”

Hearing this, Zhao Jia frowned and said, "What is this called? I have already married two daughters-in-law. Do you still want me to take care of the housework? There are so many things going on here every day. If you love your daughter-in-law, forget about your mother!"

As she spoke, she was already a little angry.

Cao Song didn't want to chat with his mother, so he diverted the conversation and said, "Mum, have you heard about the fire house in Pine Tree Alley the night before? The person who lives there is the shopkeeper of my sister-in-law's shop. Hey. What kind of world is this? She is a little girl." It’s not because of the dim sum shop that the woman provoked someone. It’s so easy to run a business in the capital? If you make money, you’ll prevent others from being jealous. If you don’t make money, you’ll delay the rent for a year.”

Mrs. Zhao Jia frowned when she heard this, and said: "It's not all because of your good brother. I can't find any kind of manager in these two houses, but I want to order a little widow! There are many gossips in front of the widow. The matter has become such a big mess, there is no guarantee that Qi Minger will gossip about it..."

Ba Age Mansion, study room.

The eighth elder brother stood at the door, raised the curtain, and looked at the sky.

Sunset on the western mountain, leaving only the afterglow of the sunset.

The eighth elder brother only felt his head was a little dizzy, so he took a deep breath.Get your spirits up.

On the desk in the study, there is a plate of orchid grass, and next to it is a half-drawn sketch.

After the eighth elder brother walked to the book case, he picked up the pen again, but he didn't know how to write it.He put down his pen, sat down, looked at the plate of orchids in front of him, the corners of his mouth could not help but feel a bit sad,
Noble mountain orchids are not as tenacious as weeds when cultivated in an uncomfortable environment.Is it an orchid, or a weed mixed in the orchid?
In the past three or two months, he has gone from panic to numbness to helplessness, but he has become more and more silent and doesn't like to speak.

Thinking about it, Eighth Brother was a little dazed.

When he recovered, Brother Jiu, who was full of anxiety, was already standing in front of him, and said anxiously: "Brother, something is wrong, Yanshou swallowed gold!"

"Did you swallow gold?" Brother Eight frowned and said, "When did it happen?"

"Just now, I heard that there is still a legacy." Brother Jiu said: "You are so stupid, why did you make such a fuss?
The eighth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother with a dignified expression.

"What's the matter, what are mynah thinking?" Brother Nine replied
I heard the eighth brother ask: "Ninth brother, tell the truth with the elder brother, do you have any hands and feet in the matter at the Songshu alley?"

"This... this..." Brother Jiu waved his hand, and said innocently: "My dear starling, your brother and I have to be honest these days. At this time, I'm full and I'm going to provoke Cao Home, wouldn’t that be a nuisance to the old man? Although their shop is booming, they still have to look at Brother Seven, so I can only watch.”

Eighth Brother smiled wryly, even if it wasn't Ninth Brother who did the tricks, but in the eyes of outsiders, this scapegoat might have to be blamed by Ninth Brother...

Cao Mansion, study room.

The lamps have already been lit here, and Cao Yin and Mr. Zhuang are both sitting cross-legged in front of the kang table.On the kang table, there are several dishes of exquisite side dishes, as well as warm wine,

After two days of busy work, I finally got some clues. The two of them were getting old and tired.Therefore, Cao Yin ordered the kitchen to deliver food here...
