The struggle of the eight blessings of rebirth

Chapter 72

At the beginning of April in the 42nd year of Kangxi, Suo'etu was convicted, and Kangxi angrily denounced him as "the first sinner in the Manchu Qing Dynasty". Because he was the uncle of Empress Renxiao, he was allowed to leave the whole body and confiscated his family property. His wife, concubine and children were exiled outside the customs. He will be banned from Beijing for life, will never be hired, and will be deprived of political rights for life.In the face of Empress Renxiao and Sony, Kangxi spared the rest of the Suo family and only disposed of Suo Etu, but the Suo family was no longer as brilliant as it was.

After Suo'etu's death, the prince was surprisingly calm, no protest, no defense, no revenge.There was a period of contention among a hundred schools of thought in the court. The one who benefited the most during this period was undoubtedly Yinsi, who was in the limelight. The direction of public opinion began to shift vaguely. He still supports the prince and pours dirty water on Suo'etu, but when more people mention Yinhu, they all give their thumbs up. They are sharp, courageous, and thorough in doing things, and they are so friendly and low-key. Such a strong evidence that he Instead of taking it as his own, he said it was all due to the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River. It is really rare that this calm and indifferent temperament was born in the emperor's family.

All of a sudden, more people came through the back door relying on relationships. Even though Minzhi was a female family member in the inner house, she could smell something wrong.On this day, she suddenly received an invitation. King Fujin of Chengjun invited her to go to the mansion to watch a play. Minzhi reported to Yinhu and took Qiu Ju and Magpie to the appointment. Princess Chengjun greeted her with a smile: "Eight younger siblings!" It's really hard to ask, today I finally gave my sister-in-law some face." Min Zhi hurriedly said politely: "Sister-in-law San will kill me, I'm such a lazy person, I'm really sorry."

The two talked and laughed and came to the courtyard where they visited last time. The stage was ready. Princess Chengjun sent Minzhi down the stairs: "Sisters and sisters, sister-in-law will not be polite to you. Go up and sit by yourself, sister-in-law." Greet the guests, come up later, just tell the servants what you want for refreshments and food." Minzhi immediately waved her hands: "Sister-in-law, you are welcome, just go and do it yourself, I will go up by myself." Princess Chengjun nodded and turned around gone.

When Minzhi went upstairs, servants had already greeted her, waited for Minzhi to sit in the seat facing the stage, and served refreshments.Minzhi was drinking tea while waiting for the play to start. Only then did she realize that 80.00% of the guests invited by Princess Chengjun this time were unknown to her. The clothes are obviously the wives of officials, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the princess of Chengjun?

Just when Minzhi was secretly recognizing someone, an acquaintance came from a distance, cousin Xin from Tong's family, she came swayingly: "Isn't this cousin Xuan'er, the eight blessings are auspicious..." Minzhi ticked off. Lips: "What's the name of this lady's husband?" The other party blushed suddenly: "Ethan..." "Well... Mrs. Ethan, how have you always been?" I think I’m so great that I’m too lazy to talk to you!” Then he shook his sleeves and threw out a rosewood box: “I’m giving this to you, and I wish you an early baby!” Minzhi looked at the box on the table inexplicably. The box, without opening it, looked at her inexplicably: "Are you sending me?" "Yes... yes... stay away from me in the future..." After finishing speaking, the girl walked away.Minzhi stared at the box on the table: It can't be a time bomb.The magpie on the side was about to reach out to open it, but Qiu Ju stopped her: "This thing looks strange...how does Fujin plan to deal with it?"

Minzhi fixed her eyes on the box, looked at it for a long time and suddenly smiled: "It's not from Xin Biaojie, but from the person behind her. It's really embarrassing for her...Qiu Ju, put it away and take it back." Qiu Ju was stunned: "Fu Jin..." "Do as I say..." The box was only the size of a palm, and Qiu Ju kept it in her sleeve.Not long after, the play started, Princess Chengjun came up, everyone commented while watching the play, several family members who had seen Minzhi came over and talked, Minzhi perfunctory them without saying a word, until the play ended, Cheng The concubine of the county kept the meal, but Minzhi refused, jokingly, these two days, Yin'e has become addicted to eating, and his wife is unlovable, which caused him to be tired of being with Yinhu all day long, and he had no choice but to go to work. Home, Xiao Shi followed, with a shy face: "Sister-in-law, what are you eating today?"

Seeing the situation of Mrs. Guan today, Minzhi knew that she was not the type she liked. She had to go back and do some research. Who did Cousin Xin marry...

It was already evening when we got home, and Yinhu and Yiner Yinhu were already waiting in the study.As soon as Minzhi came back, she was invited to the study room, saw Yinzhen was here, and after going up to greet her, she took out the box given by her cousin Xin: "I encountered a strange thing today, someone gave me a gift..." The three The man looked at the box, and Yinhu spoke first: "Who gave it to you?" "My cousin is my aunt's niece..." Yinhu frowned: "Who?" "Tong Xinlan, her husband's family name is Yisan." Ten said.Xiao Jiu's eyes widened: "But I met you at the third sister-in-law's house today?" "Yes? Brother Jiu knows who it is?" Yinhu and Yinhu looked at each other in dismay: "Brother, your book made such a big deal!" Yinhu glanced at Minzhi: "It's expected, let's put it away, if you give a gift and make a detour, let's pretend we don't know."

Minzhi smiled: "In that case, I won't keep this thing anymore, Brother Nine, let's see how much it's worth, let's put it in your shop and sell it..." Yinzhen spit out a sip of tea: "Sister-in-law...the inside is What?" Minzhi said indifferently: "I haven't read it..." Yin'er couldn't stand their ink stains, and stepped forward: "Then watch it, and eat after watching it..." Minzhi said blackly: "The ten younger siblings will Don't blame me, you eat here every day..." "She has no heart at all..." Yin'e muttered while reaching out to open the lid. When the lid was opened, everyone felt a chill, and squatted in the box. The three-legged toad jade ornament with only feet on coins, the strange thing is that the surface of the jade toad is always shrouded in a layer of light mist. Yinzhen held it up and looked at it, and blurted out: "Hanyu Jinchan, it's really a big deal, myna..." Yinzhen Hu didn't speak, Minzhi said: "Since it's very precious, I don't dare to keep it anymore, you guys can figure it out..."

Yinhu looked at Minzhi for a long time: "You keep it, the summer is going to be hot..." Minzhi waved his hand: "No, I don't need it, let's leave it at Jiudi's consignment and exchange it for silver..." Yinhu was stunned: " Sister-in-law eight, we are on a fifty-five-fifty basis, and the income these days is not enough to spend?" Minzhi rolled her eyes in her heart: children know wool, and political support requires financial support. Take a step back and say, no one thinks there is too much money no?Thinking this way, he said: This thing must be very rare. Cousin Xin is an official wife, how can she afford it?This thing, I absolutely dare not keep..."

Speaking of this, Yinzhen was silent: "Brother understands..." Yinhu's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly: "Okay, I will take care of things, let's go out..." Minzhi withdrew, regardless of what they discussed , I can tell with my toes that this thing is used by the Tong family to sniff out the rumors, but Tong Banchao is so generous, it is a rare item once he makes a move. , but seeing Yinhu's attitude, he was ready to remain unchanged. Minzhi went to Hanyin's residence for a routine visit. Wash your face and hands in your own room and change your clothes.Soon there will be dinner over there, this guy Yin'er is impatient, so he can't be negligent.

Minzhi decided to go to the kitchen to see what dishes were available. Since Yinzhen Yiner came to eat every now and then, the cooks in the mansion were at ease. The meal has always been served by Fujin, and seeing Minzhi come in, the fat cook brought his subordinates up to salute: "Fujin is auspicious..."

Minzhi asked routinely: "What kind of vegetables have you brought in today?" "If you go back to Fujin, Zhuangzi brought in some shrimps this afternoon. It is said that they were just caught in the afternoon..." "Well, after a while, the water should be frozen It's gone..." Minzhi looked at the shrimp in the bamboo basket and said to herself.The fat cook didn't know what the master meant, so he could only respond in vain: "Yes, what Fujin said was..." Looking at everything, she actually saw something: "This...is this a sea crab?" The fat cook's face froze: "This is from Tanggu. It is said that it will die when it is fished up. It is for the servants to eat..." Minzhi stared: "This... this is a good thing... Went to wash it and steamed it in the wok... The cooks were puzzled, but they chose to trust Fujin after the experience with clam meat last time. Minzhi also ordered to take a casserole to cook porridge, delicious crab porridge, no, She is drooling.

The crab is cooked, and the room is full of fresh and salty seafood. Minzhi took out the crab, skillfully peeled the shell and took the meat, mixed it with shredded ginger, waited for the porridge to thicken, then put it in and boiled it for a while, it was white and reddish Shredded crab meat mixed in the porridge, it is extremely delicious, Minzhi kept a small bowl for herself, and sent the rest to the study: "Let me try something new..."

After a while, Qiu Ju came in: "Fu Jin, Master Belle said that you should go over to have dinner together tonight..." Minzhi nodded, put down the kitchen knife in her hand, and picked up the crab porridge: I'd better have a bite first, over there Definitely not for me...

Sure enough, after Minzhi prepared all the dishes, he ran to the living room to see that the pot of porridge had bottomed out: "How do you guys feel after eating it?" Yinzhen smacked his lips: "This is seafood... use it to make porridge It's the first time I've tasted it..." Yin'e licked her lips: "Is this the taste of seafood? It's delicious..." Minzhi looked at Yinzhen: "Jiudi, where are the seafood in Tanggu cheap?" Yinzhen asked Dazed: "Seafood is not easy to preserve, it will die when you catch it, you have to eat it fresh, you have to eat it locally, sister-in-law, don't even think about it..." Minzhi 囧, originally wanted to say ice cold, but when she thought of Daqing The lack of a cold storage was instantly disillusioned. It seems that Dongzhuang has to develop foam plastic quickly...
