The struggle of the eight blessings of rebirth

Chapter 268 Four Brothers

In the first month of the 55th year of Kangxi, Kangxi, who had not been out for a year due to various reasons, couldn't hold back anymore. Just after the Lantern Festival, Yinhu was dragged to go on a north tour with him, and there was Yinzhi who went with him. Yinzhen, Yinxu, Yinlu, Yinli, Yinying, and of course Hongzhe.

Another thing worth paying attention to is that Yinxiang got the opportunity to come out this time to let the wind go. He didn't accompany him on the north tour, but was ordered to visit the graves of his two younger sisters, the eighth princess and the tenth princess.

The eighth princess died of dystocia after two years of marriage, and the tenth princess also died young after only two years of marriage.Kangxi was furious, and withdrew the title of Prince Consort of the Tenth Princess, and ordered him to go to Sichuan to join the army.He also issued a strict order that if Wang Shi did not return triumphantly, he would not be allowed to return to court.

The ten princesses were buried in Horqin, and Kangxi, as the emperor, of course couldn't visit his daughter's grave, so he slipped Yinxiang out and asked him to pay homage to his younger sister.The thirteenth son at that time was no longer the heroic young man of the past. After being locked up at home for so long, his vigor had long since worn out.

Knowing that Yinxiang was going out, Minzhi heaved a sigh of relief. After ten years of confinement, there really was no such thing. Yinxiang's suffering was over.No matter what kind of opportunity it was, it was a blessing for the old man to remember him.

The gate of Thirteen Beizi Mansion was reopened, and Minzhi accidentally received an invitation letter from Thirteen Fujin, looked it over and over, and sighed: "Come back, it's been cold these days, and my shoulders feel a little uncomfortable again." The housekeeper Just as he nodded his head and was about to go out, Minzhi called him: "Prepare some things for the children to play with, for the second elder brother to play with."

While combing Minzhi's hair, Mo Yu asked puzzledly: "Fu Jin, you have been delivering things to Lord Thirteen's house on weekdays, why are you alienated today?" When she comes, she needs to say some words of thanks. After those words come out, the affection will fade." Minzhi said leisurely, while looking at her hair in the mirror: "Do you think it's strange? After all these years, er There is not even a single white hair on the mother's head."

Mo Xue answered quickly: "That's not because of your health-preserving prescription, and the good concubine is inherently beautiful." Minzhi smiled: "Little girl is dragging the text, and you know what natural beauty is." Just as he was talking, a word came from outside that Mrs. Cai, the side Fujin, brought the concubines from the West Garden to greet him.

Min Zhi didn't realize it, and asked Qiu Ju: "Is this the day they pay their respects?" Qiu Ju nodded, "Yes, Fujin." I'm confused." Qiu Ju pursed her lips and smiled: "You told Nanny to just enjoy life. If Nanny Jin and Nanny Li listen to this, they will inevitably complain a lot."

Aunt Tara is just 78 this year. Minzhi vacated a separate room for her and assigned two maids to serve her, while Aunt Tara's work was handed over to Nanny Jin and Nanny Li, who were rewarded by the Queen Mother. Most of all, in Minzhi's opinion, the two of them have reached the age where they can confess.Minzhi respected and had a headache for these two nuns. They are the most senior old nuns in the deep palace, and their words and deeds follow the rules. Although Minzhi knows that they are out of good intentions and for her own good, she still treats them Thank you for your work attitude from hair tip to toe.

The two of them are not here at the moment, they must be at Hongwang and Hongyan's place, Minzhi immediately ordered: "Let the nanny bring the fourth elder brother, the house rules are good, but you can't ignore the relationship between mother and child." Qiu Ju just thought After exiting, Grandma Jin came in: "Fu Jin, this is not appropriate." Minzhi held his forehead: "Mommy, the fourth elder brother is no longer a baby in swaddling clothes, he also recognizes people, if Mrs. Cai and the fourth elder brother are not allowed to It's not good for the fourth elder brother to grow up if he gets close."

Nanny Jin bowed: "The rules of the ancestors cannot be violated. Regardless of elder brother or Gege, they will be handed over to the nanny to be raised at birth. They are not allowed to meet their biological mother unless they are paying their respects. This is especially true for concubines." Minzhi looked at the serious old man speechlessly. Ma'am, the word "shuchu" popped out so easily. If Mrs. Cai heard this at the door, I don't know how she would feel.With a long sigh: "The nanny brought the fourth elder brother here, and the right is to greet me, isn't that okay?"

Nanny Jin bowed her knees: "I would like to obey Fujin's orders." Min Zhi let out a sigh of relief, the fourth elder brother, born of the Cai family, Kangxi has not yet given a name, but the Cai family is already a mother and a child, and was promoted to the side Fujin at the end of last year .According to Yinhu's wishes, he was arranged in a separate yard with a nanny to take care of him. Cai could visit him every day, but he could not take him back to his house.And the visiting time should not exceed one stick of incense.

Minzhi thinks this is very inhumane, but she will not be as sympathetic as before, foolishly pleading for Cai's mercy, there is no sympathy and pity in the rules of survival in the inner house, especially for concubines who are one level lower than herself, who I didn't know that my kindness would not turn into a disaster where Little Red Riding Hood met Grandma Wolf.

Not long after, the door of the main house opened. Nanny Jin and Nanny Li stood behind Minzhi, Qiuju stood on Minzhi's right, and Mo Shuang stood on her right. The tables and chairs in front of her were already set up. Such as Avalokitesvara sitting and waiting to be worshipped.Mrs. Cai led Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Hu to stand at the door but did not come in for a long time.

Only when Mrs. Tong came from Nanyuan, supporting Chuntao's hand, Mrs. Cai nodded and lowered her eyebrows as a respectful gesture: "Sister is here, please go first." Come in." Tong Shi and Cai Shi stepped forward together, Cai Shi was two steps behind knowingly, and they both bowed at the same time: "My concubine greets Fujin." Min Zhi raised her hand, and the two got up, both standing on the Tai Shi chair on Min Zhi's right Sitting in the room, the servant girl serves tea, and Tong's usually serves Qingshui.

Immediately after, the three princesses sat down in the chair on Minzhi's left after saluting, and the maid served tea.Minzhi naturally didn't need to look at their eye contact and expression changes, as there were two more professional than her behind her.Followed by the concubine were Hongwang and Hongyan. The two younger brothers came in from the outside hand in hand. When they came in front of Minzhi, Hongyan took a step back and the two of them knelt down: "Son, pay respects to Emiang." Zhi frowned, she had been entangled in the fact that at such a young age, she knew that her parents and children were in order, would she be more mature when she grows up?

Hongzhe is still being tortured by the old man, will he feel superior to others when he comes back, and create a gap with the other two brothers?Worry about having too many sons!After the two brothers, it was the nanny who was holding Hongye who could not walk. Seeing him, Minzhi felt even more headache. Can a concubine have a son, and the three brothers born to him can live in harmony?Will the public opinion environment in this mansion change the character of this child?

Minzhi was worried about many things, and the concubines were all sharp-eyed. Seeing Fujin frowning at her son, Cai's heart fluttered. After she married in, she felt that the master of Fujin was not as jealous as the rumors said. On the contrary, he acquiesced to the prince to stay in the concubine's room for several days, and even let him give birth to a son to promote his position.

However, the child she gave birth to was a son after all, which aunt would tolerate a concubine's son threatening the status of the aunt's son?She shouldn't be harboring ill intentions towards her son, right?The prince was not as happy as he imagined when he gave birth to a son. Everyone can tell that the prince's favorite is the third elder brother who was born by Fujin Fujin. If Fujin really dislikes his son, then this child is really It's a cup.

Mrs. Cai was worried. She was a smart person. Back then when the imperial concubine was in Kunyi Palace, she was ordered to go through the stage in front of Princess Lianjun. She didn't really want to help her have a good future in the palace. There was already a Lianjun in the Tong family. The princess of the county king.In addition, Princess Lianjun dared to pretend to be confused in front of Concubine Tong, which finally made her turn pale with anger.Definitely not a good match.The Tong family has the emperor's grace to do whatever they want, but she can't. Her father is just an ordinary foreign official.

You can't be someone else's cannon fodder if you don't have a clear mind. You must put yourself in the right position and be clear-headed.After straightening her mind, Cai's demeanor also returned to normal.Minzhi nodded secretly when she saw it. Yinhu's eyes are really accurate. This Cai's eyes are pure and peaceful, and her emotions are well restrained. At first sight, her son's ups and downs can be calmed down so quickly, and she is promoted to be a side Fujin. It really is the best choice.

Thinking of this, Minzhi had a smile on his face: "Bring the fourth elder brother here and let his mother-in-law take a look, he must be thinking about it very much on weekdays." Cai stood up in a hurry: "Thank you Fujin for your grace." Minzhi waved: "This It's not a grace, it's natural for mothers and children to have a blind date, you just hug Xiaosi, but it's a pity that Huang Ama is out of the palace, so she can't give her a name. I can only call according to the ranking first."

Cai patted and coaxed the child in her arms and said, "Si'er is blessed to be taken care of by Fujin." After speaking, she was about to bow down again, Minzhi gave Qiu Ju a wink, and the latter took a step forward to hold her Hold on.Minzhi only looked at the child in her arms looking around: "The royal family pays attention to many children and grandchildren, many blessings. Since Hongyan, there has been no child born in the family for a long time. Mrs. Cai, this time you can be regarded as a meritorious service."

Cai's face is full of joy, seeing the boss's displeasure in the eyes of others, Wang and Cai married together, seeing Cai become a man in one fell swoop, the scenery is boundless, don't mention how envious and jealous he is in his heart, his eyes are aimed at the little elder brother Just as she was about to say something, Minzhi's eyes turned to her: "Master is very concerned about Si'er's daily life and food, you people who serve you should be extra careful, if anyone's mind is not clear and hurts the child, don't blame Ben Fujin for turning his face Ruthless! Always give me some guidance! I put my ugly words first, in this family, except for the master, the children are the first, remember?"

As soon as the words fell, the maids and women knelt on the ground: "Slaves would like to obey Fujin's orders." Minzhi then smiled: "Okay, let's all go back and rest, the master is not in the house these few days, so relax appropriately Loosen." Everyone got up, saluted and left, during the whole process, except for Mrs. Cai, the other concubines didn't say much.This is also a difficult problem that Min deliberately puts on Cai, to see how she can deal with the envy and hatred of others.Are you still at a loss as you were back then, or are you calm and calm?
