Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 749 Flowering Period (seeking a monthly ticket)
Er Gege's voice was not loud, but the resentment in it was not concealed.

Wugege was by the side, afraid that Chuyu would blame her, the sisters would have a suspicion, so she quickly whispered: "Second sister!"

Er Gege glanced at Wu Gege, and said with a sneer, "Fifth Sister, I'm not lying, isn't Fifth Sister envious of Eldest Sister's good fortune?"

Hearing this, Wu Gege was anxious and embarrassed, his face was flushed from holding back, and he didn't know how to argue with Chu Yu.She really didn't understand, even if the second sister was annoyed about marrying away, why would she blame the eldest sister.

At this time, any words of consolation are empty.Chu Yu raised her head, looked at her sister's thin face and red eye circles, still supported Er Gege's arm, and said softly, "Second sister sit down and talk first."

Er Gege glanced at her sister, but sat down with her back on her back, not looking at her.

Wugege already regretted it a lot.Seeing that Er Gege was sad, she thought of asking the eldest sister to come over and untie it.Who would have thought that Er GeGe would have a fight with her sister first.

Chu Yu looked at her sister's back, and the circles of her eyes couldn't help turning red.Thinking of my younger sister who loved to cling to me the most when she was young, sometimes when she was sleepy, she had to coax her to sleep.It wasn't until the teenagers, when they started to learn the rules, that the two sisters became more distant.

Thinking of childhood memories, thinking of putting her sister on his lap and coaxing her to sleep, Chu Yu's eyes grew more and more compassionate.

At this moment, Er Gege has already turned around, just in time to meet Chu Yu's gaze.

Seeing that her face was red and then white, white and then red again, she said after a long while, "I've grown up so much, I've never begged my elder sister, how about begging my elder sister for something today?"

Chu Yu sat next to the bed, took her hand, and said softly: "What do you want, you are my own sister, don't say one thing, ten or eight things, as long as I can do it for you , can you still refuse? What's the matter, second sister, tell me."

Er Gege seemed to have calmed down, gently pulled out his hand, lowered his head slowly, and said, "I beg you, big sister, don't come here before I leave Beijing... Even if you come, don't come into my yard." ...

If I don't see my eldest sister, I will take it as my destiny. As the daughter of the Aixinjueluo family, who has enjoyed the honor of the emperor and grandson for more than ten years, I should do my best for the court... When I see my eldest sister, I will think: It turns out that not all princesses care about Mongolia, and there are some who stay in the capital like the eldest sister, marry into the Lord's family, and live in peace and beauty...

In this way, I will blame Ama, who is also a daughter, why I choose a son-in-law for my eldest sister, and go to Huang Mafa to plead for your life; Da Erniang regards you as her own daughter, and even her own fifth younger sister stands aside; Erniang pities you for not being around since childhood, for fear of wronging you; as for me, aunt, biological mother, who will look at me?Going to the country and leaving home, I am already very miserable, does the elder sister want me to leave Beijing with resentment towards Ama and Erniang? "At the end, she raised her head, with a bit of sadness in her expression, her face was already full of tears.

Wu Gege was closest to her, seeing her like this, felt sore in his heart, lowered his head, and wiped away his tears with a handkerchief.

When Chuyu saw her younger sister venting her anger, although she felt embarrassed, she didn't blame her, but when she heard about her parents later, she couldn't help frowning.

With a hard knot in her heart, she didn't want her sister to leave Beijing with resentment.

She said seriously: "Ama doesn't pay attention to you, and no one of the two sisters looks at you. What do you call that? If you really don't pay attention to you, why would you point it at Ao Han Taiji? Going to Khalkha Mongolia? Didn’t Ama bother to make you marry closer to Rehe? What’s the reason why the two mothers didn’t accompany Ama to Rehe and stay in Beijing? Ma has long said that your dowry, in addition to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, will also buy a copy in the house, and it will be handled by the two mothers. Because of your unhappy days these days, the mother has put a lot of money on her head. White hair, when I called over there just now, Erniang cried a lot. She is going to get married, and she will leave Ama Erniang and live with someone she has never met. I know that you are afraid. I also came here like this back then Yes, shyly and timidly preparing to get married in front of people, and weeping the pillow wet with fear at night. For this, you have to blame Ama Erniang, regardless of the kindness of more than ten years of childbirth?"

Er Gege was left speechless, and after a while he asked: "Is what the eldest sister said true? That... was also chosen by Ama?"

"What are you doing coaxing you? Aohan is only a few days away from Rehe, and Huang Mafa goes outside the Great Wall every year to escape the summer heat. If you miss Ama and Erniang in the future, send someone to send a letter to Rehe Reunion is it." Chu Yu replied.

Er Gege wiped the tears from his face with his hand, his expression relaxed a lot, and Chu Yu said: "Ao Han Taiji has been seen not only by Ama, but also by your brother-in-law. The young princes of the county palace are all good-looking. It's just because I met your brother-in-law, he treats people well, so it seems that I feel better. When the second sister gets married, I will know that all life is suffering, and I have to think about it myself to live happily. These years, Your brother-in-law and I are almost separated by yin and yang, and because of me, Tianhui became pregnant and sick, and it hurts my heart to think about it. If I think about all this, I'm afraid I'll have to cry every day."

At this point, Chu Yu paused, and then said: "But think about it again, both parents, siblings to support each other, and no catastrophe, isn't it a great blessing for us?"

Er Gege was originally an open-minded person, but because he was about to get married and lost his heart in anxiety, he said those angry words.Now after hearing what her sister said, she was ashamed.

The resentment I felt towards my parents before, but unconsciously disappeared...

Huke yamen, after a busy day, it will be time to drop the yamen in a blink of an eye.

Cao Yong handled the official documents on the case and looked out the window, according to the temperament of the fourteenth elder brother.Since Brother Sixteen said what he said yesterday, shouldn't he work harder and come to him today?

Sure enough, a person came in at the gate of the courtyard, wearing royal blue clothes, with a yellow belt shining brightly around his waist, it was the Fourteenth Elder Brother.

Several people in the yard saw the pen posts, even if they didn't know the fourteenth elder brother, they knew the yellow belt and knew it was the clan master, so they hurriedly bent over and stood up.

Huke is in the yamen of the household department, and the gate of the household department is guarded by soldiers.Those who can go directly to the Huke Yamen are all people of some importance.

Just when Fengche came out of the wing room, he saw that it was the fourteenth elder brother, so he hurried forward to say hello.

Fourteenth elder brother glanced at him, raised his chin and said, "So you are also working here, are you Mr. Cao there, I want to talk to him."

In a small yard, and his voice was so loud, Cao Yong couldn't pretend he didn't hear him, so he had no choice but to hold back his impatience and come out to greet him.

The fourteenth elder brother seemed to have changed his face, and he already had a smile on his face. He said to Cao Yong: "Master pinched a little, thinking that you should be in the office here, so he came here. If there is an errand here, I will go out to talk with you .”

Cao Yong didn't want to stay in the Yamen for such an attitude, otherwise he didn't know what would happen.Besides, the man in front of him speaks outspokenly, and Cao Yong is also afraid that what he says will implicate himself.

Therefore, Cao Yong said: "The Fourteenth Master please sit in the hall, and Rong Chen will come out after entering the room and explaining a few words."

Fourteenth elder brother waved his hand and said: "Go quickly, I can just stay in the yard, the room is very boring." While speaking, he pointed to Fengche and said, "I'm talking to him."

After hearing this, Cao Yong pleaded guilty and entered the house.After explaining a few words to Jiang Jian, he handed over several approved documents to the pen and sealed them up, and then he came out of the room.

The fourteenth elder brother is asking Fengche about the current situation of the old Shangshu Marhan, and he also said that his status is limited, otherwise he would have gone to visit Yunyun a long time ago.On Fengche's side, he had to thank his grandfather.

Come on politely, go politely, it's all nonsense.

Seeing this, Cao Yong just felt amused.

Although the fourteenth elder brother wanted to learn from other people's "honest and virtuous corporals", but he was born and couldn't let go of the prince's elder brother's genealogy. How awkward, how awkward.Even if the original words were good, but coupled with his condescending demeanor and arrogant tone, it was harsh to listen to.

Details determine success or failure, and this principle also applies to the battlefield of seizing the throne.

When the same household department came out, the fourteenth elder brother took Cao Yong to a teahouse in Xidan archway, asked for a private room, and sent someone to guard the door, and the two talked in the room.

Cao Yong sneered in his heart, it doesn't matter what the [-]th elder brother's ink marks are today, what is important is that it happened when the officials of the six yamen fell into the yamen.Even if the two of them only drank two sips of tea here, and said a few nonsense about the fine weather, the news received by the other princes tomorrow is that "fourteenth elder brother and Cao Yong have a close relationship, and they will enter the tea room on a certain day and at a certain hour." Secret language" or something.

In the teacup is this year's new tea, the top-quality Yuqian Longjing tea, which is refreshing and tangy.

Cao Yong has a plan, and he is no longer as irritable as before for these little moves of the fourteenth elder brother.

The fourteenth elder brother seemed to really regard Cao Yong as his "confidant". He put the document he had newly drafted today asking for the Qinghai military station in front of Cao Yong, and said: "Cao Yong, the military situation is urgent. I haven't slept for half a night, thinking about it all. Take a look at this brochure, tell me what you think, and see if this proposal of your master can be used?"

How did the two of them get so close that they could discuss important matters?Fourteenth elder brother can't help it, want to call soldiers into battle?

Cao Yong picked up the booklet and read it carefully.

This proposal is good, but there is a little oversight.That is, when it comes to vassals inside and outside Mongolia, the Li Fanyuan has to come forward.The fourteenth elder brother wrote a long and eloquent article, all of which were directed to Chen Yuqian, and did not mention the Fanyuan at all.

"Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. The fourteenth master's suggestion is very good." Cao Yong looked at the fourteenth elder brother, and his attitude was very "sincere": "It is said that the fourteenth master is familiar with military books and has opinions on military affairs. Everyone's flattery to the Fourteenth Master. From today's perspective, it is really a man who is worthy of his reputation."

The fourteenth elder brother was already proud, and Cao Yong's words were pleasant to the ear, which made him feel like a bosom friend, and he couldn't help but start talking again.

When Cao Yong saw him, he just felt lucky. Fortunately, the tea table in the middle was a square table, which separated the two of them far away.

It wasn't until the fourteenth elder brother said that his mouth was dry and he drank several pots of tea, and felt that the heat was almost ready, so he said goodbye to Cao Yong contentedly, and took people to the overseas residence in Shicha.

When Cao Yong saw his back going away, he got on his horse and said to Zhao Tong: "send someone out of the city to tell the master and wife, and say that there are more errands today, stay in the city, and go tomorrow."

Zhao Tong responded, Cao Yong looked at the sunset in the sky, turned his horse's head, and went to Jinyu Alley.

No matter how arrogant the fourteenth elder brother is, he should not be feared, because his foundation is not deep, and because he has too many weaknesses.For example, the Wu family in Haizibian.

After the Wu family committed crimes, his father and brother were implicated in the incident of "wasting the prince", sentenced to exile, and died of illness on the road.An orphaned daughter of the Wu family, who was sold into slavery by officials, has been tossed around in the world, and she also has a terrible past.Three years ago, I was met by the fourteenth elder brother and began to "golden house hidden beauty".

Fourteenth elder brother is surrounded by wives and concubines. Has there ever been a shortage of women?To be able to have such a long-term affection for Wu Shi can be seen that he has moved a little sincerity.

Different road non-phase plan.

If in the future, there is a day of falling out with the fourteenth elder brother, then being able to control this Wu family will also make the fourteenth elder brother jealous.

It is not a glorious thing to plot against a woman.Cao Yong was riding on the horse, feeling a little depressed.

Before I knew it, I entered Jinyu Alley and arrived at the gate of Brother Thirteen's Mansion.

While the steward welcomes Cao Yong in, he sends people to the second gate.

After a while, the thirteenth elder brother came in wearing regular clothes, saw Cao Yong, smiled and said: "Yesterday, I knew that the fourteenth brother pulled you to drink, and I knew it was time for you to come. I didn't expect it to be so soon."

"It's really helpless. The Fourteenth Master came to the Yamen to block me again today, and went to Xidan Tea House to drink tea for an hour in full view." Cao Yong said with some helplessness.

At this time, I heard a "gurgling" sound, and it was Cao Yong's Wu Zang Temple protesting.

"It's useless for dinner? Lord, I'm making people ready to go." Elder Brother Thirteen glanced at Cao Yong's official uniform and said.

"That's a good relationship. I'm really hungry. I'm going to forgive Lord Thirteen today." Cao Yong said with a smile.

Elder Brother Thirteen called a servant, and after finishing his orders, he turned his head and said to Cao Yong, "I'm so careful in life, I'm tired of doing it for you. He made you play for others, and you followed suit. What's going on in this world?"

"Be careful sailing for thousands of years. Besides, there is no other way." Cao Yong said.

There was silence in the room, and both of them were silent.After a while, Fang heard Thirteenth Elder Brother say: "Some days will be father-in-law's birthday, and I will think about taking Fujin and the children there to celebrate his birthday."

When Cao Yong heard the words, he couldn't help being startled, looked at Brother Thirteen for a while, and said, "Master Thirteen, have you thought about it?"

Cao Yong had already heard Feng Che and He Lian mention about the preparations for Marhan's birthday at the Shangshu Mansion.

There is an old folk saying, "73, 84, the king of Hades won't tell you to go".Malhan is now 84 years old, and his body is not as strong as before. His nephews and daughters are afraid that he will not be able to survive, so they want to hold a big birthday.

As the son-in-law of the thirteenth elder brother, it is also reasonable to come forward to "pay birthday wishes".

Cao Yong knew that it was not a simple "birthday worship", otherwise Brother Thirteen would not have made a special trip to mention this sentence.

"I originally wanted to use your strength, or the strength of the fourth brother to get out of the mountain, but now I see it away. Huang Ama doesn't want me to intervene in government affairs. Even if you two recommend it, it's useless. Apart from government affairs, there are other affairs I have been wasting these years, and I should start to live with the door open." Elder Brother Thirteen sighed a little.

Cao Yong has some conflicts in his heart, and some support the choice of the thirteenth brother. After all, as a big man, if he stays in the house for many years and doesn't go out to get some air, he will be useless; but thinking about the upcoming Northwest War and his temper The suspicious fourth elder brother, Cao Yong can't help worrying about the thirteenth elder brother.

Brother Thirteen saw Cao Yong's worry, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know my size. The number of 'targets' I have seen in recent years has been less, no matter how confused I am, I will not be that 'target' .”

It's good if you can understand this, otherwise, you might get caught up in the fire at some point...

Xidan archway, a restaurant.

In the private room by the window, there are two people sitting, Jiang Jian and Li Wei.

Li Wei was wearing an official uniform, but because there were six yamen next to it, and there were many officials coming and going, it didn't look too conspicuous.

This is not a place to talk, so when the food was served, both of them began to eat hard.

Thinking about it, Li Wei's life was also boring. When he saw his old friend, he had a good appetite and had two more bowls of rice.

Jiang Jian couldn't help smiling when he saw that he was gobbling, and said with a smile: "This official's cooking is not good for anything else, but his appetite is good. Why, the dishes made by the cook at home are not to your taste?"

Li Wei ate his belly, Fang put down his job, and said: "The crops in Xuzhou have not been good in the past few years. Except for the money sent back to Master Cao, there is a lot left. I didn't find a cook, I just called A burly woman is cooking in the kitchen."

"If money is tight, just speak up, don't be polite." Jiang Jian said.

Li Wei shook his head and said: "No, it's just right now. I used to think that all the officials were rich. I just thought it was funny when I saw those poor Hanlins walking squarely on the street. Now that I have entered the Ministry of War, I have met a lot of people. Colleagues, only then do you know what a "Beijing official" is. This is still an official, and if you can call slaves like me, you already know Dazu."

"'Between scholars for three days, treat each other with admiration', the ancients never deceived me. Youjie has been reborn." Hearing Li Wei's words, Jiang Jian couldn't help admiring.

Li Wei hesitated for a moment, and said: "Fei Lin, please tell Master Cao about something. I, Li Wei, are incompetent, and I must have offended Fourteenth Brother. These days, he intends to win over me, but I am impatient with this Brother Fourteen, if one day he thinks of punishing me, it will be a piece of cake. When it comes to that time, please be sure to watch from the sidelines, Mr. Cao, and don’t get involved. In the worst case, I, Li Wei, will pat my ass and leave, and go back to the countryside to be mine. Go to the local rich man. The fourteenth elder brother is now covering the sky with one hand in the military department, and his arrogance is in full swing. If Master Cao is against him, he will suffer a loss..."

"Hey, since you are worried about my lord, why didn't you tell him in person?" Jiang Jian sighed, and said, "Why do you have to make such a fuss? You know your lord's temperament. When it comes time for you to be wronged, what will your lord do?" Can you stand by and watch?"

"If you don't go to Cao's mansion, it's not your birth." Li Wei raised the wine cup in front of him, drank it down, and said, "Master Cao's great kindness, I, Li Wei, dare not forget for a moment..."
