Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 578

Although Doctor Chen told Cao Yong to rest for a while, how could he rest?

The day after Brother Sixteen came, two old doctors from the palace came over, and they "looked, heard, asked, and cut" again.

After tossing Cao Yong, the two old imperial physicians read the prescription of Chen imperial physician again.After discussing with each other, they added or subtracted some medicines again.

Cao Yong knew in his heart that Kangxi was in a hurry.

Although it is understandable that he, as an emperor, worries about the Northwest War day and night, Cao Yong really cannot give birth to a heart of gratitude.

"The drug is three-point poison", although increasing the dosage can make Cao Yong's disease recover as soon as possible, but it can't guarantee whether his body has recovered.

This medicine is like thick wallpaper, which has pasted Cao Yong on the surface, but the actual situation is unknown.

Complaints in my heart are complaints, and Cao Yong also knows that it is not the time to be sick.

In the officialdom in the capital, there is a "rule" that the big guys know very well, that is, when they don't want to go to the yamen or have something to do at home, they often use "cold" as an excuse to ask for leave.

So when Cao Yong got sick this time, most outsiders thought he was "pretending to be sick".

From the doctor of the Ministry of War to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it seems that he has been promoted, but the position there is not easy to sit.

After all, there is still a word "administration" hanging on it, and Bao Buqi will be dismissed when he fails to do well.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs now has a chief manager, the current minister of the Ministry of Industry, He Yi, a well-known talent in the Eight Banners, whose old surname is Hesheli, and who is in charge of the White Banner.He has a lot of Nalan's heritage, he was born as a guard, he is not only very knowledgeable in piano and books, but also has a little bit of expertise in painting.

Since the 47th year of Kangxi, when the "Prince was abolished", there are very few people who can be the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and He Yi is an exception.

If you don't want to be strong, this sentence is really true.

He Yi is obsessed with calligraphy and painting, and has a mediocre view of fame and fortune, and has no desire to cling to them.He didn't know whether he was really stupid or fake about the prince's brother's courtship in private, and he said it with a bit of sourness, making the other party confused.

Because he has no ambition, he has won the emperor's favor.

Over the years, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has changed a lot, but He Yi has not been affected at all.

In addition to the painter in charge, there are several directors of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.Among them, there is Ma Qi, a senior scholar of the retired university, and Guan Bao, the first-class guard of the imperial court, and others.

Although the [-]th elder brother and the [-]th elder brother have not officially ordered the Minister of Internal Affairs to be in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is not a day or two that the [-]th elder brother is in charge and the [-]th elder brother is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Who among these top figures in the Ministry of Internal Affairs seems to be able to exchange money?
In this way, Kangxi hoped that Cao Yong's recovery would be justified.

In addition to the official business over there in the Yamen, Cao Yong has to worry about going home.

Although she had kept Li's secret before, Zhao Jia came over once and accidentally revealed it, which made Li very worried.

For various reasons, Cao Yong is not good to stay in bed and recuperate. He only hopes that he will get better soon.

Cao Yong "pretends to be sick", and the palace "gives medicine" repeatedly, but this kind of favor is eye-catching.However, the Cao family has never received less honor and favor over the years, and the big guys get tired of talking about it after dinner.

Today, what is being circulated in Beijing is the "Fan Shu Case" related to the abolition of the prince.

The second elder brother was circled, and it was forbidden to communicate with the outside world.At the end of last month, he took advantage of Fujin's serious illness and ordered the imperial physician to

He Mengfu delivered letters outside the palace.

Because there are guards outside the Xianning Palace, they will be checked and searched when they come in and out, and they are not allowed to take them out for a few words, so the second elder brother wrote letters with alum water.

After the letter is written and dried, it will become a clean white paper, which can avoid the inspection of the guards.

He didn't have any other bad intentions, but he was relieved to hear that many clans and officials who had been convicted were allowed to serve their crimes and make meritorious service in the Northwest War.

After all, as a prince for more than 30 years, the desire for power cannot be eliminated in a short while.

He bribed the doctor Meng, asked him to take the book out, and handed it to his die-hard supporter Zhenghongqi Manchuria Governor Puqi, and asked him to recommend himself as a general.

As a result, Puqi asked his cousin, Duke Abran, to give him the surrender before he made a fuss.

Puqi and Abran are both descendants of Guanglue Belle Chuying.

Chu Ying is the eldest son of the Taizu, and should have been the most honorable person among the kings.But because he is the "heir" who was deposed, the situation of his descendants is embarrassing.

Prince Li Daishan, who is also the son of Taizu, has three grandchildren among his descendants, how respectable that is.

Such a comparison makes the descendants of Guanglue Baylor's branch look forward to being cast, and they also look forward to being a king.

But I don't want to, you hope and I hope too, this own person can only hit seven inches by swinging a knife at his own person.

On the eighth day of November, the "alum" case finally came to a conclusion.

The second elder brother inquired about Hutuktu's letter of coming to Beijing, and also hoped that there would be news of an early release.

At the clan's mansion, Prince Jane Yarjan'a led people to try the "book case" that Abran first sued, but all the charges were pushed to Puqi.

It's not the second elder brother who "indulges in the imperial physician", but Puqi.

It's not that Yaerjiang has any friendship with the second elder brother, but that the second elder brother is the former prince after all, if he is involved, he will be blamed for "adding insult to injury" if he is not careful.

At the Clan's Mansion, Puqi was finally convicted of "knowing his feelings and not being allowed to hear about it", so a verdict should be drawn up; the imperial physician He Mengfu sentenced him to be executed by beheading.

On Kangxi's side, they were all demoted, Puqi was detained before the photo, and He Mengfu planned to be executed instead.

But it was "loud thunder, little rain", which disappointed many people, and made many people have some thoughts in their hearts.

Although Kangxi didn't intend to allow the second elder brother to go out to fight, but he didn't seem to want to continue to be harsh, which is something to say.

Men think about intrigue all day long, but women are confined to a small space, and their parents live short lives.

The ninth day of November is Qifujin's birthday.

After ten days of recuperation, Cao Yong has recovered and no longer needs to stay in bed.

It's just that Cao Yong hadn't reported to the yamen yet, and it was not good for Cao Yong to go out to socialize like this, so he asked Chuyu to bring Tianyou and Hengsheng back to Chunjun Palace to celebrate Fujin's birthday.

Tianyou has a beautiful face, Hang Seng has a thick head and a thick head, and the two younger brothers are about the same size, so it is really painful to look at.

Qifujin treats Chuyu like her own daughter, and treats her two grandchildren like her darlings, hugging her tightly and never letting go.

Not only the seven Fujins, but other Fujins and wives who came here to celebrate their birthdays also touched this little face, pulled that little hand, and praised Chuyu for being blessed.

All kinds of meeting gifts are indispensable.

After a while, Tianyou and Hang Seng were rewarded by many elders.

Qifujin invited a few concubines from the palace to sit on the kang with Sanfujin, Sifujin, Wufujin and others, and he sat on a chair next to the kang to entertain guests.

She has been in poor health for the past two years and has been recuperating.

Xu Shi is old and loses the sharpness of the past; Xu Shi is lingering on the sick bed, and talks about everything.

Seventh Fujin's temperament is much more peaceful now than before, and he no longer competes with the side Fujin Nala's for the limelight.

In addition to Qifu Jin's birthday, there is another happy event in the palace, that is Hong Zhuo's marriage.

In the draft held every three years, the showgirls who leave the brand will either enter the palace or be married to the princes, grandchildren and clan princes.This time, the one pointed to Hong Zhuo is this year's show girl.

Although her father's rank was not high, he was just a Yuanwailang from the fifth rank, but that woman was a real noble girl, from the Yiergenjueluo family, a common surname in Manchuria.

The female family members of the royal family who got the news had to flatter them a few more words, Qi Fujin listened with a smile, but felt a little bitter in his heart.Should the concubine be happy about the happy event?When a newcomer enters the door, his niece will start to set the rules.

In the end, it was my own negligence that made the inner curtain lax and caused the scandal of the year.

Chu Yu was sitting on the opposite chair, seeing her mother-in-law smiling forcedly, busy using the seasonal fruits of the twelfth lunar month to divert everyone's attention to other topics.

Apart from beauty, this woman also loves to eat.

Speaking of dim sum, everyone chattered about the new style of pastry made in their mansion, and the little sweet porridge they made.

Big guy, you and I were chatting lively, and both Tianyou and Hang Seng had longing looks on their faces.

At this time, I heard a woman's laughter from outside the door: "Is it because I didn't eat breakfast, or what, why is it all food?"

Everyone in the room, hearing this laughter, stopped their voices.

Chu Yu, the twelfth Fujin, the fourteenth Fujin and others have already got up from their seats.

Seven Fujin is the host, and he also got up to treat the guests.San Fujin, Si Fujin and others were sitting on the kang without moving a muscle.

The one who came was none other than the Eight Fortune Jin Guo Luoluo family.

She was wearing a mink cloak with a red embroidered phoenix and a peony pattern, and a fair and flawless pink face. She looked like she was in her twenties, not at all like a person in her thirties.

In her hand, she was holding a ten-year-old girl.

That little girl has a melon-shaped face, red phoenix eyes, and is wearing a pink flag dress. She is definitely a beauty.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Fujin couldn't help covering his mouth with a handkerchief, glanced at Fujin Qi, and said with a smile, "Why, sister-in-law Qi, I've become an uninvited guest, can't I disturb everyone's interest?"

Seventh Fujin hurriedly gave way to Eighth Fujin, and the prince Fujin who was younger than Eighth Prince, and other descendants of the palace, all greeted Eighth Fujin one after another.

After Bafujin nodded in return, he looked at the few people sitting on the kang, and greeted them with a smile.

Sanfujin has no relationship with Bafujin, it's just a face-to-face deal, and it's all courtesy.

Sifujin and Bafujin, one is very quiet, the other is very active, they have different temperaments, but they hit it off quite well.

Sitting on the kang was Prince Jian Jifujin Wanyan Yongjia.

She seldom spoke, even to her cousin Fourteen Fujin who was sitting on the chair under the kang, she didn't say a few words at all.

She just listened quietly, sometimes looking at Tianyou and Hang Seng, and sometimes at Chuyu.

When meeting Chuyu's eyes, she nodded.

"Whose family's daughter is this, she's really good-looking, and her temperament is also demure. She's your natal niece? Then I'll have to ask my third boy for the next draft." An old concubine of a county prince pulled the little girl With his hand, he carefully looked at the little girl's eyebrows, but the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

Tianyou and Hengsheng sat on the kang, looking at the little girl standing beside the kang.

The little girl had reached the age of shame, her face was blushing, and she turned her face slightly, not daring to look at the ladies of the palace.

But just in time to see Tianyou and Hengsheng staring at her with round eyes, the little girl smiled, revealing two dimples.

Sanfujin saw other people chatting with Bafujin, so he turned sideways and said to Yongjia next to him, "Where is Liu Gege from your family, why didn't you bring it out today?"

Yong Jia replied: "It's been cold these past two days, I dare not take her out to make trouble. After a while, when she's better, take her there to greet Fujin."

Sanfujin nodded and said: "You are still young, so there is no need to be impatient. You have to relax your mind, otherwise the more anxious you are, the harder it is to conceive."

Yongjia was baffled by what he heard, and turned his head to look at Sanfujin with doubts on his face.

Sanfujin always looked at Tianyou and Hang Seng before meeting her, thinking that she was envious of others for having a son, so she just said a few words in passing.

San Fujin's comforting intentions are good, but in the eyes of others, they think differently.

Not everyone is as lucky as her to have a legitimate son.

Let's not talk about it, let's just say that the four Fujin, seven Fujin, eight Fujin, twelve Fujin and others in this house, either the first son died young, or it was not easy to conceive.

Others can bear it, but Bafujin has a fiery temper, and she said this only after entering the door, so how can she bear it?
She twitched the corner of her mouth, looked at Sanfujin, and said with a sneer: "It seems that sister-in-law really loves us? It makes us small-bodied guys learn to behave, which is a big favor."

After San Fujin finished speaking, he also felt a slip of the tongue, and was thinking about what words to turn around, but Ba Fujin was already like a cockfight.

In terms of preface, Sanfujin is a sister-in-law, and Bafujin is a younger brother and sister; in terms of title, Sanfujin is Prince Heshuo Fujin, but Bafujin is Mrs. Baylor; in terms of honor, Sanfujin is also from the lord's mansion, more important than Guo Luoluo's family. power.

Therefore, for Ba Fujin's disrespect, San Fujin looked indifferent, and said: "It's nothing, it's just empty teeth, just a few words.

Ba Fujin frowned, and his face became more and more ugly.

Qifujin was afraid that the two of them would quarrel.He hurriedly sent people to send all the little girls brought by Tianyou, Hang Seng and Ba Fujin to the east room.

"Who are you?" Tianyou asked curiously, "Are you the little aunt of my uncle's family?"

"Uncle and grandpa?" The little girl smiled and imitated, understood the meaning, waved her hand, and said, "I'm not Gege from their family, I'm just borrowing."

While speaking, her eyes fell on a copy of "Zhuangzi" on the Kang table.

She is ten years old and has been enlightened for several years, so she can read and write easily.

She reached out to take it, and there were all kinds of patterns and shoes inside, presumably it was used by the big maid for the front.

She has already started to learn "Zhuangzi", and has already heard a lot from the teacher, but today, after seeing the intrigue between adults, she feels a little different about this book...

Cao Mansion, the living room.

Cao Yong was very surprised when he heard Yi Duli's words, and he couldn't help asking: "What? You were demoted three levels in a row? What is the crime? Didn't you make a contribution before?"

Yidu stood with a bit of embarrassment on his face, and said: "You have been ill these days, so you haven't heard about it, but it has been spread all over the forty-nine cities. This time, it is a big shame to lose face."

"What the hell is it? You were so careless, why did you get caught by the censor? This is a three-level downgrade, from the fifth rank. Do you want to enter the sixth division to become Yuanwailang?" Cao Yong pondered and said.

"What else? Going to naturalize in May, I took in a girl, hey...I'm not a military officer, what's the matter..." Yi Duli patted his forehead and replied: "If you don't go to Liubu, you should go The Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is not bad to be your helper..."

PS: Who is the little girl, the prototype of someone familiar to everyone.

From 6 o'clock to now, 7 hours, I'm sorry, it's even later, tears.
