Return to the Qing Dynasty (27)

The Fourth Master looked at the note drawn by the Ministry of Personnel, as if he hadn't seen Longkodo kneeling beside him.

Longkodo was once the admiral of the Nine Gate. The Fourth Master did not expect to avoid his eyes and ears, but he did not expect that he would know so quickly.

He did not go to find his concubine, but came to the palace and knelt down below, saying that he was apologizing.

Needless to ask, Longkodo knows what happened before and after the Silver Building.

But this is said to be accusing, but I don’t want to mention any sins in the past. So what sins are you here to ask for?

The Fourth Master is lazy to talk nonsense to him now, and said directly: "You go out."

"Slave..." Longkodo thought that the Fourth Master would be furious and scolded, but he didn't expect to be so light. This was different from what he expected. To be honest, he was really not used to such a Fourth Master. At first, he heard the news that he would serve as the Minister of Personnel, but there was no result later. In the first half of the year, just around May, he always felt that the Fourth Master was not very kind to him. Although he was given the title of Prince Taibao, he was also a minister of the Interior. But in the past six months, he had never been summoned by the emperor alone for political affairs. There is a problem.

Now that he saw this cold and indifferent attitude, his heart was cold. He said 'subter', and when he was thinking about whether he would be so soft, Su Peisheng spoke, "Long live, the Fourteenth Master is here."

Longkodo couldn't help but look at Su Peisheng. This old eunuch had wished he could wag his tail when he saw him, but now he is so virtuous. The Tenth Master is here, why don't he say it sooner or later? He interjected when he was about to speak.

Su Peisheng disdained Longkodo's eyes. No matter what you look at, I can't even fall down your grandfather.

The Fourth Master ignored the lawsuit between the two people and said, "Call Lao Si Si in."

Longkodo got up immediately. He didn't want to lose face.

Fourteen walked in and came out and met Longkodo who had withdrawn.

"Mr. Tong?" Shisi asked with a slanted eyes.

Longkodo nodded reservedly and nodded, but did not salute.

The Fourth Master looked through the bead curtain and narrowed his eyes.

The Fourteenth Master seemed to have become accustomed to Longkodo's attitude. The two of them just stood up. Longkodo was going out and Fourteenth wanted to go in. But they were unwilling to give in to each other. They just stared at them with big eyes.

If there is anyone who is most dissatisfied with the Fourteenth, it is undoubtedly Longkodo. What's going on with the will? But even if it is suspicious, he knows in his heart that this evidence may not exist at all. First, he feels that Longkodo is not so brave to pass on the will, and second, the late emperor really wants to pass on the throne to him, and he will not even have the intention to recall him to the capital. Recently, he often wondered whether the late emperor put him in Qinghai to take charge of the army, or should he separate himself from the eighth and ask his fourth brother, the fourth brother, to support the army of his brother.

After thinking about it, I still feel that the latter is more likely.

But what happened in the middle? If the fourth brother is a little bit narrow-minded, he may be the fate of being enclosed in the mansion. For example, now, it seems that there is no errand, but whenever he goes, he calls the Fourteenth Master. No Thirteen is favored, but they also know that he doesn't need to flatter the emperor. Even if he is a slander, he will be the younger brother of the Master. Others have a lot of themselves.

Now that we have come to this point, we have accepted our fate. But we have accepted our fate. For Longkodo, a slave who played a key role in a major historical moment, he still has no good face.

Longkodo straightened his back, raised his chin slightly behind his hands, signaling Fourteen to move out of the way.

Fourteen can let him?

Can he still be the Fourteenth Master if he lets him go?

Who is my master? He started to be a bear when he was the late emperor. Now he is a grandfather, but his brother is still the emperor, so he can still be a naughty child. I am here to fight you today. What can you do?

"Come in!" The Fourth Master called Fourteen inside.

Fourteen went over from Longkodo and slammed it with his shoulder. Longkodo almost fell down, then he raised his chin and went in.

When the fourth master came in, he glared at him, "What are you sceptical about with him?"

Why don't you care about it?

That's because you didn't see the slave's arrogant behavior. "...I'm still in front of you, he dared to force me. No matter how many old princes are, he doesn't buy it." As Fourteen said, he carefully looked at the fourth master's face. Seeing that there was no displeasure, he calmed down. Just say, if this fourth brother really changed his temperament, he wouldn't be the fourth brother. He is a person who has strict requirements on others and has even stricter requirements on his own people. Longkodo's arrogant spirit will sooner or later make the fourth brother unable to tolerate it. Look, it looks like

It seems that she has reached the limit of patience with Longkodo people. "Besides, this is where his concubine is treated the same as the profession of the wife. When she goes out, she is on par with the princess, and her clothes and accessories are even higher than the princess." This is what the unlucky concubine said. Anyway, she is now visiting, if she has that concubine, she will not keep it. When she sees the master, she will refuse to come back directly. Many people don't like that Li Sier, but it is not easy to offend. Who is the Saint of Longkodo?

The Fourth Master skipped the topic, "How is the arrangement in Qinghai?"

Fourteen then corrected his face, "I have already started, and the memorial will arrive in a few days."

The Fourth Master didn't ask in depth, but said, "The Admiral of the Nine Gate...you do it first."

Um?

Fourteen was stunned for a moment, "Fourth Brother, do you say the Nine Gate Admiral?"

The Fourth Master ignored him and waved his hand, "Go to see my mother..."

Fourteen went out of the Imperial Study Room, but I couldn't tell what kind of feeling I felt. The Admiral of the Nine Gate was not a person who trusted very much, and he didn't dare to give such an errand. But the Fourth gave it to himself, which was trust. This must be admitted. But since he trusted himself and knew that he would not rebel, why didn't he ask himself to lead his troops?

Speaking of which, my favorite thing is to lead troops.

He went to Cining Palace with his head down. The Empress Dowager became angry when she saw his virtue, "What's the matter?"

If you say that you are not satisfied with the Nine Gate Admiral, will you be beaten?

"It's okay." Fourteen was a little depressed. Seeing that his old mother glared at her again, she thought to herself, the old lady has patience to everyone in her life, but she has no patience to herself. She was originally asking for safety, but now she doesn't think about it. She just said, "Aren't you all going to find a wife and son-in-law for your children? My son wanted to ask if there is a suitable candidate for the Wuya family. You know, there are three sons who want their daughter to marry."

The Empress Dowager calmed down a little, "You are also a confused person. If you want to find him, don't look for him in this marriage. It's hard to say that the child is wronged. He either cares about this or that person. He suffers unnecessary grievances in vain." As he said that, he sighed, "Your wife is not a confused person. But you can't help but mutter to your two little wives in private. Are you planning to look for Shushu Jueluo's family and Yiergen Jueluo's family? Dispel this idea as soon as possible, otherwise I will ask your fourth brother to marry the child. If you are smart, you will follow your wife's wishes..."

Fourteen had a bigger head. He just made excuses, and he originally gave them to Wanyan. However, as soon as his mother said, he really remembered that the two concubines of his family had indeed talked about how their parents' family were. If this was just for their daughter, it would be easy to say. If they were to marry them, they would get married. But if they had the idea of ​​pulling out their parents' family, this would not be possible. He responded continuously, just as he was about to end the topic and go out of the palace. As a result, Madam Ping came over with a child.

This child looks like a golden boy, with a pink and jade-made look. His eyes are very clear, but he looks a little thin.

You know without asking, this is the Sixth Prince.

The child called softly: "Grandmother..."

The Empress Dowager's face softened instantly, "It's our sixth prince. Come here quickly and see your fourteenth uncle."

His fourteenth uncle had never seen a child before, so he quickly took the jade pendant from his waist and handed it over, "Please take it and play with it."

The child is only over two years old, and he is inevitably shy when he sees a stranger. He gets into Madam Ping's arms and can't come out. Madam Ping takes it on behalf of Prince Six, and joking a few words is considered to change the topic.

Fourteen did not stay too late, and praised the Sixth Prince for several words before leaving.

After the fourteenth left, Madam Ping whispered, "...Is it a brother, it's different from someone else... The Admiral of the Nine Gate, what a great trust is this... The Tong family is now looking at it, and Long Live treating him, and it's very common..."

The empress dowager didn't say anything, but her eyes showed a sense of pleasure. Empress Xiaoyiren didn't hate her. She raised the fourth child in the end. She hated the Tong family. Jiuer... Why didn't her Jiuer have lost her? The princess married the Tong family and went there a few years later. If the Tong family had the will to control her children, how could her daughter go early? Jiuer's death was like a thorn, and she dared not touch it, and it hurts her heart when touched.

After thinking about the past, shed tears silently for a while. Madam Ping persuaded her again and again, and then she stopped.

The Empress Dowager turned black again and continued to scold the Fourteenth, "What a great thing, he didn't say it, he came happily without saying it. He said that the Fourth of the Year had no choice but to think about it. This person is content. If he is insatiable, he will never think about happiness in his life."

"Ah snee!" Sisi was talking to Wanyan, and his nose suddenly itched and sneeze came out.

Wanyan handed over the veil and said, "You're going to do something to curse again."

Why don’t this girl ask me if I caught a cold first?

"You don't want me to order it." Fourteen wiped his nose, "I'm telling you the serious business. If you have any advice on the three daughters, no matter who asks you or who is not happy, just ask her to come and argue with me..."

Who gave me some advice? Why did you figure it out?

Wanyan sighed, "Everyone said that stepmothers are difficult. Why are stepmothers difficult? Isn't it just that their own mother and children don't trust them from the bottom of their hearts?"

"What stepmother?" Fourteen interrupted, "I want to find a stepmother for the child. Are you taking up a place without moving?"

Wanyan wants to hammer him to death!

"I am not a stepmother, but the truth is not the same? This legitimate mother and the concubine's daughter..." Wanyan shook her head, "I think I am helping the mansion. I find a lower-ranked family, but I feel that I have been neglected. This is the legitimate mother who is uneasy and sincerely suppressed. Anyway, no matter how she does it, as long as she is willing, she can see from it that she has bad intentions."

So, let’s make an agreement in advance. If you live a bad life in the future, don’t ask me for bad luck. If a person has a long life, who knows what will happen in the future? Especially for this marriage, the first two years may be tender and sweet, and it will inevitably become a resentful couple in the future, which is the most difficult to explain.

Fourteen glanced at Wanyan, "We have been sleeping in the same bed for so many years, who doesn't know who? Are you just afraid that I will cause trouble for you later? Look at what these little words say. Don't blame the child first, you have to look at yourself first. If you want to treat the child as your own child, you will give birth to it. How can this son-in-law choose? Just keep this kind of heart... No matter what happens in the future, what are you afraid of? You have no guilt."

Wanyan choked again, and what he said was relaxed. How many people in this world can do it? Everyone knows the reason why pork cannot be applied to sheep.

After she said this, Shisi was silent. He suddenly asked, "Then what is the attitude of the fourth brother and Shisan?"

That's all.

Thirteen is porcelain, you are rotten tiles.

But I dare not say that. Wanyan had to go against his conscience, "This is the same difference between you and Hongming and Hongwang. For Hongming and Hongchun, you will beat him whenever you want, and scold him whenever you want. What are you doing with Hongwang? Like, love... and be kind..."

Fourteenth, I understand. Hongming and Hongchun are the biological sons, and they can do whatever they want to do to their biological sons. Anyway, they won’t really blame them afterwards. But they will be different from Hongwang. You have to be polite to win over, otherwise the relationship will not be well done.

After thinking about it this way, I felt a little more balanced. Yes! I was kissing myself, and the fourth child would do whatever he wanted. It was kissing me! This one came out of my mother's belly, and this one could not be changed. But Thirteen is different. If it is not good to Thirteen, then Thirteen will not work so hard.

This is the truth, it is true that it is more comfortable to think about it.

Therefore, this concubine is not all bad. Some things are pretty good. It depends on whether she is willing to make me feel comfortable.

As the two of them were talking, the sound of footsteps outside from far to near, and seemed a little hurrying.

It was Hongming who came, "...A lot of customers came, Ama quickly go ahead and support..."

Fourteen slapped his head and then remembered that the story of the Nine Gate Admiral had been reported, and he forgot to tell Wanyan when he came back.

After hearing the cause and effect, Wanyan was happy first and then angry, "Why didn't you forget you..." As he said that, a gust of wind blew over.

Compared with the lively atmosphere in the 14th Prefectures, the Longkodo Mansion suddenly became deserted.

Longkodo asked the girl to go down, and he personally took the medicine to apply medicine to Li Sier, "I feel wronged today."

Li Sier's teeth were a little loose, "Master, did I cause trouble for you?"

"It's nothing." Longkodo said lightly, "When it comes to my master's position, if you can't even protect you, just hit him to death."

Li Sier grabbed Longkodo's hand, "I met the Four Concubine that day... No! Is it the Queen?"

Yes! It's the queen.

Longkodo wanted to blame her, but when she saw her swollen face, she didn't say anything, "In the future... how careful the queen's temper is not as good as before."

Sier thought to himself that if his man had the ability, his temper would not be better.
To be continued...
