Hongyun is also busy now, and he came to Hongyun to borrow his master.

Obviously, it's time for him to get married this year, and he's met people, but now he doesn't have any leisure to care about the draft. Hongshi was idle and had nothing to do, so he deliberately ran around him: "Third brother, aren't you nervous?" What if your daughter-in-law asks someone to brush it down? ”

Hongyun smiled when he saw him coming, grabbed him and said, "It's good that you're here, come and help me make a summary of this stack." ”

Hongyun hasn't opened a mansion yet, so he is working in Hongyun's mansion, next to Hongyun.

At this time, their second brother happened to be busy for a while to rest, paced leisurely with tea, flicked Hongshi's forehead and said: "You really don't remember to eat, when you were a child, I always saw you bullying your third brother, why are you not as smart as before when you are older?" He's so busy now that he's even grabbing my people, seeing that you're a strong laborer, don't you want to catch it quickly? ”

Hongshi's face suddenly turned gray, he looked at the two stacks of files on the third brother's desk, and then looked at the case next to it that was also full, Hongyu kindly reminded him: "Don't look, there are several big boxes in the corner house." Your third brother has to start from the twenty-sixth year of Kangxi, early. ”

Hongshi wanted to cry without tears, he was just coming over for a turn, but he spent a day here, and the second brother just asked him to take his luggage from the garden.

"Tell E-Niang again, and say that I want your help here." Hongyun was very brotherly and brought a bowl of yogurt to Hongshi.

After a busy day, the brothers sat in the study and opened the window, chatting while blowing a small breeze. Outside the window, the sky is full of red clouds.

"Third brother, what are you busy with? I think it's all Shandong's files. "Hiroshi was tired all day before he remembered to come and see. The so-called summary is to ask him to read it himself and write an abridgement. For example, if there is a locust plague in one year, the harvest in the fields may be halved in the next year, and then there will be displaced people, and the people will lose their land, and the officials will lose their people. The farmer could not eat enough, so the people ran away.

Three years ago, there were more than 900 households and 2,000 people in this county, and three years later there were only 1,000 left. The cultivated land was originally four or five thousand acres of fertile land, but after three years, more than 30 percent of it was wasted.

But this can't just look at how the county official reported it back then, he said it was a locust plague? The front and back should not only be coherent, but also contrasting.

For example, this county reported a locust plague, but the place that was only a few dozen miles away from it did not report it, and there were bumper harvests year after year. This problem is very serious.

Hongyun alone will definitely not be able to see it, even if he borrows Hongyun's master, it is not enough. Of course, one person may not be able to do anything when adding Hong, but at this time, one more person is one.

Hongyun stood at the window and looked outside, and after teaching them to read for half an hour, they must look at the distance for a quarter of an hour. He has been busy for so long today and has not been able to take care of it, so now it is better to stand here and watch for half an hour.

He said: "It's nothing, after I get married and open a mansion next year, Ama probably wants to hand over an errand to me." ”

Hongshi said: "I can't see this?" "It's the same as not saying! Everyone said that he bullied Hongyun when he was a child, but he didn't remember that. But now it seems that he always feels that he may not be able to bully this brother when he is a child!

Hongyu smiled, tilted to Hongshi's side, and squeezed his eyebrows with him, Hongshi immediately came over: "Second brother, you are the best, can you tell me?" ”

Hongyun stood in front of the window and laughed, Hongyun took a red bean cake and stuffed him with a mouthful, and said, "The fourth one's mouth is sweet at all times." It's nothing, it's just that your third brother is ashamed. It starts with his father-in-law. ”

The fourth master chose this Fujin for Hongyun, and his father was the governor of Shandong. While in office, he made a proposal for the gentry to serve with the peasants.

Of course, it is impossible to really ask the old master and young master of the official gentry family to come out to repair the river and build the imperial mausoleum, but the original intention of the fourth master is not to let them serve, but to test the possibility of paying taxes under the official gentry.

He planned to do so, first said to serve, let the court quarrel, and then discounted, not to serve together, but need to pay silver to redeem.

After the progress of the silver ransom was made, the officials and gentry were to pay taxes and grain.

Step by step, this first step will be handed over to Hongyun to go.

Now there are four generations of the dynasty, and there are more and more wealthy gentry in various places, as long as they are admitted to Xiucai, they can be exempt from taxes, and the bigger the official, the more hidden fields. The land is not in the hands of the people, and the taxes will naturally be paid less and less.

The fourth master pulled out a household Shangshu of the Kangxi Dynasty because he also wanted to borrow the light of the first emperor. The son is always right to listen to Lao Tzu. Even pointing out the daughter of Folun to Hongyun was because of this consideration. After Hongyun gets married, it makes sense to mention his father-in-law's former proposition.

Hiroshi listened to such a long list, and said at first glance: "This is too troublesome, right?" How does Amma ...... "a little timid?" He is the emperor, what does he want to do, and it takes so much effort?

Hongyu slapped him when he heard him speak, which made Hongshi gasp and shrink on the chair with his head covered.

Hongyun felt that he had seen enough hours, turned around and came back to rub the back of Hongshi's head considerately, and said with a smile: "Hongshi, why do you say that you are not as smart as when you were a child?" You can say such stupid things. Let me ask you, if I mention it and someone objects, will Huang Ama see it very clearly from above? ”

Hongshi nodded, understanding a little, "Huang Ama is trying to play with the praying mantis to catch cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind?" After speaking, Hongyun also slapped it, "This is called strategizing." "I can't even say a word.

Hongyu said with a smile: "Huang Ama is long live, he mentioned it in the court, and the people below may not dare to refute it at first, but they have some small means behind their backs, so that it will be disgusting if they can't do it." Hongyun first entered the court, young and vigorous, and mentioned the matter of his wife, those people saw that he was young and could be bullied before he dared to 'speak freely', and the emperor Ama was good at it. ”

When those spikes are pulled out, Huang Ama's decree can reach all directions, benefit the people, and clean up the court, and Hongyun can also use this to make a name for himself, so that Huang Ama can seal him.

His Baylor was awarded because of his meritorious service in the last military affairs of the counselor. The thirteenth uncle has been said to be incorrectly named by the thirteenth uncle until now, and his words are not good. Huang Ama didn't want their brothers to be said like this, so he was so cautious.

really took the credit in his hands, and the sealed Baylor was justified.

The three brothers all nested in Hongyu's mansion, and they didn't come out once in ten days and half a month. Li Wei was staring at Hongyun's pox in the garden, as well as Hongyun's enlightenment.

Jingli, Wulanala and Tong Mansion are also silent a lot. As a result, it seems that there are fewer people on the street.

At the beginning of April, Li Wei returned to the palace to serve the Queen Mother and went to Changchun Garden to escape the summer. This is also what the fourth master instructed her before leaving, saying that he left early this year, and the queen was received the phoenix seal again, and the queen mother may not go to Changchun Garden.

He said: "You can't let the villain spoil the interest of the emperor's mother." ”

Li Wei listened to his words, and invited the Queen Mother to go to the Old Summer Palace every three days.

She also found a lot of reasons, like the emperor was still worried about the heat stroke in the palace outside, which hurt the queen mother's phoenix body; Or that the first emperor is not in Changchun Garden, the queen mother misses the first emperor every year, how can she not go this year?

The Queen Mother looked at the fold handed by the concubine and smiled, and the other aunt said, "You see how good she is." I'm afraid that the fourth child will confess to her, if I don't want to, she can pester me like this for a summer. ”

Aunt Fang played a fan for the Queen Mother and said with a smile: "This is also the filial piety of the Lord and your lord." ”

The Queen Mother put down her fold and sighed: "It's not that I don't know, it's just that there are hundreds of show girls in this palace now, and when the fourth child comes back, she will still get married, I don't stare at it, and I really give it all to that Nian?" ”

Aunt Fang has been by the Queen Mother's side for many years, and she doesn't have to be taboo when she has some words, so she whispered at this time: "She is small and weak, and she should do badly, do well...... Naturally, there are others who are anxious. Although Changchun Palace looks like it is not done, the tiger is still ......"

The Queen Mother thought about it and said, "Yes, what do I worry about for them?" Let them bite off. Changchun Palace is becoming more and more unrepresentable, even if it looked stupid before, it was not so bold in the end, but now it is like a mad dog. ”

If you want to fight mad dogs, natural people can't get on it, so they can only raise another dog, hang a bone between them, and let them fight on both sides.

Aunt Fang is not uncommon to see such people, she said: "There are such people everywhere, the master can't remember now, was there still a few in the palace before?" It's like the guy who lost at the table. People have times when they get lost. ”

The queen is now just a person who loses a gamble but refuses to leave at the gambling table, hoping to turn over the book.

The Queen Mother smiled: "Yes...... Or do you see clearly......"

Aunt Fang saw that the Queen Mother was moved, and said, "Then the slave maid asked people to pack their luggage?" To be honest, even the slaves and maids are happy to live in the garden, and they look forward to moving there as soon as possible. ”

The Queen Mother laughed at her words.

As a result, the next day, I actually heard that your lord had returned to the palace.

When Aunt Fang received the news, she hurriedly went to tell the Queen Mother, and said, "Did you see that you have been refusing to go to the garden, and the concubine is here to cut the first and then play?" ”

The Queen Mother was surprised and said, "No......"

As a result, I heard that the concubine did not go to the West Sixth Palace when she entered the palace, but went straight to Ningshou Palace.

The news came in one by one, and I heard that the concubine had not come back by herself, and even the eldest princess and the second princess who had already opened the mansion were brought back.

The Queen Mother understood here, this concubine really felt that she couldn't say anything, and wanted the juniors to come over and help beat the side drum. When the princesses are entangled and grinded, the Queen Mother really has no choice but not to agree.

The Queen Mother smiled and asked Aunt Fang to prepare to entertain the guests, "I remember that Yierha likes to eat apricots, and Erhe likes what kind of ice cream is it that her mother came up with?" Let them all be delivered. ”

Aunt Fang hurriedly agreed: "The slave and maid will go now." ”

The Queen Mother said: "She didn't bring a few Hongyu." ”

"The eldest brother is staying in Beijing, if you bring a few second elder brothers, it will be inappropriate not to call him. Presumably the concubine was only called the princess because of this. Aunt Fang said, this is also a matter of course.

Rushing back to the palace from the Old Summer Palace early in the morning under the big sun was not easy on the way.

Hongyun has come out of the pox house, although the person is a little weak, but as long as the pox is planted, the back is slowly raised. Li Wei thought that while the weather was still not hot, she would quickly take the Queen Mother out, so that there would be nothing else in this palace that she needed to worry about.

After entering Ningshou Palace, she hadn't pushed Yierha and Erhe in front of the Queen Mother, so Aunt Fang naturally told her that the Queen Mother's luggage was ready, and when she moved over, please set a date for your lord.

Li Wei was stunned, and Aunt Fang and the Queen Mother laughed together.

It was easily solved, and Li Wei suddenly felt very relaxed. Since she is here, she is not in a hurry to leave, I heard that after her frame entered the palace, the sign outside has been brought in.

After Li Wei took the princesses to accompany the queen mother for lunch, she left the princesses in Ningshou Palace, and she went back to Yongshou Palace to deal with things.

Chang Qing came in to say goodbye, and it was really aggrieved to leave him here alone. Li Wei thought for a while and asked him if he wanted to exchange with Zhao Quanbao?

"You discuss with Zhao Quanbao to see how often you are reincarnated." She said.

Chang Qing couldn't help but smile happily, kowtowed, and said, "It's still the master who is considerate of the slave." He always stayed in the palace, saying that his master was trustworthy, but he didn't know the bottom of his heart after staying for a long time. What is a slave called a slave if he doesn't follow his master? has been away for a long time, not to mention whether the master still remembers him, even he is afraid that he will be alienated from the master.

Please see that although the signs are delivered quickly, they are all people who don't care. Among them, there was one of the Tong family's Chengen Mansion handed it over, she took this sign and thought about it, guessing that it might be Li Si'er.

Although she guessed it herself, Roncodo must have not done anything good. Of course, it is impossible for her to be kind to Li Si'er, an 'old friend', here. And their friendship back then was not very sincere.

Li Wei only looked at it hastily once, and then asked Chang Qing to return these brands.

Then let someone call the grandmother of Chuxiu Palace to ask about the draft.

The queen took refuge in Changchun Palace with illness, and most of the draft affairs were carried out routinely by the grandmothers and eunuchs of Chuxiu Palace. The one that the fourth master said was handed over to the Nian family, and most of it was used to anger the queen. It is also because of this matter that there is a concubine as the nominal manager.

But the old rules are there, and no one dares to change one or two.

Since she has returned, she should follow her duty to ask.

The grandmother of Chuxiu Palace came in and kowtowed, and Chang Qing said: "This is Mama Dai who is waiting in Chuxiu Palace." ”

Li Wei looked at her familiarly, let the tea sit on the table, and said with a smile: "I think Mama has a good face, and I thought that I was taken care of by Mama back then." ”

Mama Dai didn't expect that after many years, your lord would still remember her. Hurriedly put down the tea bowl and got up to salute: "Your lord Lao remembered that the slave maid had indeed had the honor to serve your lord back then. ”

Li Wei invited her to sit down, not in a hurry to get down to business, but chatted about the year first.

Speaking of those years, she doesn't remember much anymore. The deepest impression is the palace maid sister who took care of her, at this time asked about the old person, Dai Mama smiled: "Xu Huagu's family is gone, she didn't go out, and she is still in Chuxiu Palace." ”

Li Wei nodded, and when Chang Qing saw this, he immediately went out and ordered people to prepare two rewards.

Turning to talk about these show girls, Li Wei only asked Hongyun about the future Fujin Shumulu clan. Mama Dai naturally knows it, and she will definitely take good care of her when she goes back.

After renewing a cup of tea, Mama Dai is about to retire. Li Wei stopped her, and seeing that Chang Qing had already asked people to wait over there with the reward, she couldn't help nodding lightly to him, and said to Mama Dai: "Mama and Aunt Xu took care of me back then, and I still remember this love." If it weren't for your care, I wouldn't be where I am today. ”

Mama Dai hurriedly wanted to kneel, but Chang Qing helped her on the side and said, "Mama and our master are old acquaintances, get up quickly." ”

Mama Dai was a little drumming in her heart, accepted the reward, and Chang Qing personally sent her out.

The little palace maid behind him followed behind with the things she had rewarded.

When she was about to leave the gate of Yongshou Palace, Mama Dai said: "Your master is really kind, and the old slave can't even say anything when he sees your master." Father-in-law, I didn't say anything wrong just now, did I? ”

Chang Qing smiled: "Why should Mama be polite? Even I'm a junior in front of you. ”

Mama Dai didn't say anything when she saw that Chang Qing was dead or alive, although your lord's words just now didn't have any other meaning, but Chang Qing's father-in-law's words always seemed to mean something, but she didn't say it, could it be that she wanted her to guess? How would she know what your lord was thinking?

Chang Qing has been sending Mama Dai outside the Yongshou Palace, not to mention the send-off, and asked the little palace maid to help Mama Dai take things back.

It made Mama Dai's heart go up and down.

Li Wei saw that Chang Qing went to send Mama Dai for a long time before coming back, and immediately understood what he had done, and couldn't help but retreat and leave him alone to speak, and said, "Say, what did you talk to Mama Dai about just now?" ”

Chang Qing knelt down and thumped Li Wei's legs, and said, "The slave just gave Mama Dai a ride, but he didn't say anything." ”

Li Weipin came out, this is the story of the empty city. This is cleaner than a direct threat or a point, leaving no trouble, and in this way, Mama Dai will do more than they want without a clue.

Changqing's method is a cut above Zhao Quanbao, and it is a condescension to keep him in the palace.

However, with him in the palace, the affairs of Changchun Palace can be seen more clearly.

She leaned back and asked him to tell him how the Changchun Palace had been in the past few days.

Chang Qing said: "Changchun Palace is still the same as before. Last time, I heard that a palace maid secretly hanged herself, and after reporting to the Heart Cultivation Palace, there were fewer people waiting in Changchun Palace. So far, I haven't said that I want to make up for a new one. Da Fu Jin has been there once in the past half a month, and he hasn't brought Da Gege yet. ”

Dai Jiashi only went once? Don't have Honghui's daughter yet? Is this what Honghui means? Or the Queen's?

If it was Honghui's, then she really felt cold. She can be regarded as a big brother who has seen her since she was a child, when did she become so 'sensible'?

Chang Qing said: "Before, Concubine Ning seemed to want Concubine Ke to move to Xianfu Palace, but Concubine Ke didn't agree. ”

Li Wei: "Xianfu Palace? ”

What does Concubine Ning want to do? Another helper for Nian's?

It's really getting more and more interesting in this palace.
