Chapter 706: Loyalty and Filial Piety (II)
"Imperial Doctor?" Zhao Feng was a little hesitant when he heard this, and whispered: "Master, didn't you say that this smoking addiction should be hidden from the imperial doctor?" ”
The sixteenth elder brother sat up, took a long breath, and said, "Whoever asks you to come to see the disease, just say that the master has diarrhea, and let them prescribe two opium treatments." As he spoke, he yawned twice.
Opium is a common medicine, dizziness, diarrhea and diarrhea, can be cured.
Only then did Zhao Feng understand the intention of the sixteenth elder brother, so he answered, and immediately went out to find the imperial doctor......
The sixteenth elder brother sat on the couch and muttered: "If you only stay in Zhongguan for a while, you will be able to reach Rehe later." ”
Thinking about the more and more frequent smoking addictions, even the sixteenth elder brother, who has always been optimistic, can't help but be a little worried.
* Beijing, Caojia East Mansion, Inner Courtyard.
Zhao Jiashi sat on the kang and took a few puffs of cigarettes. Cao Song came back from duty, sat on a chair, and talked to his mother. The next is the joy of the full moon of the little elder brother of the Thirteenth Elder Brother's Mansion, but Jinghui is in the middle of the month, and Zhao Jia's wants to go in person.
But there is no reason for the brother-in-law to give birth to a concubine and the aunt to go to eat and drink, after all, she has to take care of the face of the Thirteen Fujin. If you let other women go, who in the family will have the face?
The seat of the palace, you can't send a girl to show up here.
Looking at Zhaojia's embarrassment, Cao Song said: "Mother, otherwise, I will salute with my aunt and sister-in-law in Xifu, so that even if people can't go over, it is not rude." ”
When Zhao Jiashi heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "Together with the gift, where can we show our sincerity, or you will give a gift before you go on an errand." As she spoke, she put the cigarette holder in her mouth and took a hard puff.
Cao Song listened and nodded. He sniffled, with a little curiosity, and said, "Mother has a new tobacco leaf, and it smells so good." ”
Zhao Jiashi said casually: "The filial piety outside is only half a catty, and most of them have already gone." After eating this cigarette, I will eat anything else, and I am planning to ask people to look for it in the tobacco house outside. ”
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Cao Song accompanied Zhao Jia's family to say a few more words, and then went back to the East Cross Courtyard.
*The weather is fine.
After Cao Hao finished his errand from the Yamen, he went to the Thirteenth Elder Brother's Mansion to eat full moon wine. Because it was a concubine, I didn't do much, only a few ordinary people came and went to give gifts.
Among the male guests, in addition to Cao Hao, there are also two cousins of the seventeenth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother and several nephews of the thirteenth Fujin lady. Everyone was about the same age, and they sat at the same table, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Even Cao Hao, who doesn't like the things in the cup, has also been poured into several cups in a row, and some of them are on their heads, and their faces are flushed.
Compared with half a month ago, the thirteenth elder brother's complexion is much better. He added two sons in a year, and he was really happy in his heart.
When the fourth elder brother came, everyone had already drunk three rounds. Because he was so stern, everyone fell silent.
The thirteenth elder brother looked at the cold scene, and he really couldn't, so he had to invite the fourth elder brother to sit in the flower hall, and asked the seventeenth elder brother to accompany everyone to continue eating and drinking, and called Cao Hao to come over and talk to the fourth elder brother.
Seeing that Cao Hao was a little drunk, the fourth elder brother couldn't help frowning, and scolded: "Are you so idle? ”
This sentence without a beginning or an end not only made Cao Hao confused, but even the thirteenth elder brother was puzzled. He was afraid that Cao Hao would not be able to come to the stage, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Fourth brother, Cao Hao was called by his younger brother." It's rare to have a reason, the big guy eats a meal. ”
was inexplicably attacked by the fourth elder brother, Cao Hao couldn't argue here, and he couldn't argue either, so he could only bow his head and make a deferential appearance.
"Prince Jian has cut off most of the gold in the capital, aren't you afraid?" The fourth elder brother snorted coldly and said, "When the gold is scarce and the price of gold is soaring, see how you resolve it?" ”
To tell the truth, this Cao Hao didn't have a bottom in his heart, so he had to tell the truth and said: "I really didn't expect that Prince Jian would exchange this gold all of a sudden, and the ministers were also worried." I'm afraid that it will have little effect, and it may not be so profitable. ”
When the thirteenth elder brother heard this, he was a little upset for Cao Hao, and said, "Fourth brother, I really can't complain about Cao Hao." 20,000 taels became 120,000 taels, a sixfold increase. Only Yarjianga has the courage to make such a big move. ”
The fourth elder brother pointed at Cao Hao and said to the thirteenth elder brother: "It's not because he gave the idea of a 'good money boy', so much trust." ”
The thirteenth elder brother glanced at Cao Hao and said: "Cao Hao has a little ability to collect money, and he also borrows the light of 'the right time, place and people'. If you offer him up to worship, you can have silver, then wouldn't Cao Hao be the living god of wealth? If nothing else, I'm going to snatch him to the house first. Speaking of which, there was already a little smile.
The fourth elder brother still had a stiff face, looked at Cao Hao, and said, "Don't be complacent." Prince Jane's surname, is it a good match? This time he raised gold with great fanfare, such a momentum. If there is something unsatisfactory and you lose face, how can you be spared? ”
This is not true, but it is true.
Cao Hao's side, hearing this, said in a low voice: "There is really no way, Prince Jian moved out of the holy decree, and the minister can only plan hard." ”
The thirteenth elder brother was close to Cao Hao, and when he heard this, he smiled, and said, "Even if Yaerjianga is arrogant, he has to be reasonable." The idea was that Cao Hao was not fake, but it was his own idea that he raised an extra 100,000 taels of gold for his private claim, how could he blame Cao Hao for his business trip? Fourth brother, if he is messing around, you can help Cao Hao. Can't bother to work hard, be a cow or a horse, and still suffer this grievance? For a long time, who is willing to do their best for the court? ”
Listening to the thirteenth elder brother speaking for Cao Hao, the fourth elder brother glanced at Cao Hao with a complicated expression.
In fact, in Cao Hao's heart, although he knew that Yaerjiang loved face and that things were not handled properly, he would be annoyed, but he didn't think that the two sides would have a grudge.
Even if Yarjana is really annoyed, he will have a seizure openly, and he will not make yin. It's not that he can't, but with the arrogance of Yarjana, he doesn't care about those curves.
This surname, to put it bluntly, is a "real villain". Cao Hao didn't know if he had a dark side, but he didn't dislike Yarjiang, who was surnamed this "real villain".
Seeing that there was some coldness, the thirteenth elder brother remembered something, and hurriedly called an attendant at the door and gave a few orders.
One less time, there was a waiter who sent a brocade box.
The thirteenth elder brother opened it and sent it to the fourth elder brother, saying, "Fourth brother, how about this object?" ”
The fourth elder brother took it and looked at it carefully, and it turned out that there was a gold wire enamel snuff bottle in the brocade box. On a golden background, on top is a picture of a Western angel.
Looking at the chubby little angel, the fourth elder brother's expression was much softer.
Similar to snuff bottles, I have also seen them here in Beijing, and most of them are copper-tire. It's rare that this is golden, and the workmanship is getting more and more exquisite.
"A few days ago, I just came from Guangzhou, and I knew that the fourth brother liked this, so I told the shopkeeper to pay attention, but I didn't expect it to be really good." The thirteenth elder brother said with a smile.
With Cao Hao by his side, how could the fourth elder brother admit that he was a plaything and a lost mind.
He coughed twice and said, "Thank you Thirteenth Brother for bothering, spring is sleepy and autumn is lacking, it is the use of snuff." ”
The fourth elder brother likes this, and it's not a secret, the thirteenth elder brother also gave it before. Seeing that he was always so serious, Cao Hao and the thirteenth elder brother glanced at each other, and pretended not to pay attention to ...... * Haidian, the eighth elder brother's garden.
Looking at the eighth elder brother who didn't know anything on the bed, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were worried.
The ninth elder brother couldn't help it, turned around and asked Bafu Jindao: "Eighth sister-in-law, hasn't the imperial doctor consulted you, why is it still like this?" Burn it like this, burn it like this......" He really couldn't say the rest of the sentence.
Ba Fu Jin bit his lip and said, "The Tai Doctor who has good medical skills in the Tai Hospital has gone a lot with him; I heard that the Queen Mother was uncomfortable last month, and she passed a little more. On this side of the capital, most of the remaining imperial doctors are lulu. Looking at the danger of the master, he was afraid of being involved, so he didn't dare to go down. ”
When Brother Jiu heard this, his face was already gloomy. Brother Ten couldn't help it, and said, "That can't be dragged either." Let's write an excerpt to Rehe. Calculate the calculation, the holy car still has half a month to arrive in Beijing. Wait until then, and still have it? ”
He had a loud voice, and he was still pressed in front of him, and he raised his voice at the end.
The ninth elder brother was afraid of disturbing the eighth elder brother, so he pulled down his sleeve, and the two brothers came to the outside hall. Seeing this, Bafujin also followed.
"Three days ago, I wrote an excerpt asking for a doctor to send people to Rehe, and there has been no movement so far." Beatitude Jin sighed and said.
After hearing this, thinking about the current situation of the eighth elder brother, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were only speechless, and they didn't know what to say.
Ba Fu Jin looked at the sky outside and said, "It's late at night, the guest room has been cleaned up, the ninth brother and the tenth brother should go over and rest first." ”
After these times, it was said that Bafujin was the hardest, and the whole person was not to say anything, and his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked very haggard.
Brother Jiu looked at it and said, "Let's go and rest with my eighth sister-in-law." It's rare for us to come over and take a night with my sister-in-law. If you continue to stay up like this and fall ill, who will take care of the starling? ”
Bafujin is a cool person, and he knows that what Brother Jiu said is right. Her husband is sick, and now she is the pillar of the house, and she must not be sick. Therefore, she thanked the two elder brothers, and sent two new beds to cover them, and arranged them properly before going down to rest.
The ninth elder brother and the eighth elder brother have always been good friends, and they don't think about whether they are sick or something; The tenth elder brother glanced at the eighth elder brother and whispered to the ninth elder brother: "Ninth brother, let's also write a doctor's excerpt, right?" ”
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Well, I also have this intention." 'Tiger poison does not eat children', even if Huang Ama has a problem with starlings in his heart, he will not just hope that he is gone. In the end, although the volume was lowered, it was difficult to hide the resentment.
Listening to the dissatisfaction with the imperial father in the words of the ninth elder brother, it resonated with the tenth elder brother. He sighed and said, "What else can Huang Ama have besides eccentricity?" It's all sons, Xiao Seventeen was sick last month, and he asked several times in a row; Right now, starlings are like this. Starling lying in such a daze is also a blessing; If you're awake, you're afraid you'll be stunned. ”
"In any case, this is a doctor's deal. If Huang Ama doesn't move, I'll go to Rehe to beg. Brother Jiu said, his attitude was even resolute.
Brother Shi's surname is bold and righteous, so he naturally supports this.
After Brother Jiu finished speaking, he glanced in the direction of the capital and sneered: "The old fourteen are getting more and more excessive, and these faces are not showing." I want to see, Ming'er and his joint name are not co-signed? ”
…… Every time Cao Hao went to the yamen in the house and the yamen went home, he said that his life was peaceful.
The renovation project of Changchun Garden is almost complete, and now it is doing the finishing work. Cao Hao and Dong Dianbang went to see it, after all, it was where the palace was located, and the stakes were important, but no one dared to fool them.
The rest is to pay attention to the Tangquan Palace.
When the holy driver returns to Luanjing on the hot river, he will pass by the Tangquan Palace. Before you stay there, you need to cook it properly.
Because Tangquan is still some distance away from the capital, Cao Hao and Dong Dianbang discussed and decided to stay in Beijing and go to Tangquan to accept the project there.
Although it is said that it is dozens of miles out of Beijing, there is some rushing, but this is a meritorious service. In addition, in Tangquan, it is also decent to be able to drive directly after a while. Therefore, Cao Hao gave this opportunity to Dong Dianbang.
Dong Dianbang is now the head of the Internal Affairs Office, and he must make some contributions before he can be officially promoted.
Although he is sometimes verbose, he is very careful in his work. With such a colleague, Cao Hao's side also feels a lot more relaxed.
Because of the last mention of the remuneration, Dong Dianbang was also worried that Cao Hao would blame him. Seeing that he had a heart to fulfill, Dong Dianbang was very grateful.
The fourteenth elder brother is not so comfortable.
A few days ago, he was forced by the ninth elder brother to sign a joint account on the excerpt of asking the eighth elder brother for medical treatment. Before, he used the excuse that the military department was busy with "errands", and only asked people to visit the eighth elder brother, but he did not visit the sick once.
He also wanted to drag it until the holy car came back, so as to save himself from being implicated and disgusted by the imperial father.
But Brother Jiu came angrily, and that look made people's backs chill. The posture put on, if the fourteenth elder brother refuses to join forces, he will immediately turn his face and become an enemy.
Although the fourteenth elder brother has set up his own door, the foundation is still shallow, relying on the connections of the eighth elder brother and the tenth elder brother and the financial resources of the ninth elder brother.
Even if he was unhappy in his heart, he couldn't tear his face with Brother Jiu, so he had to bite the bullet and co-sign on the fold. Unexpectedly, the holy decree was sent back, but it was criticized that "the fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen has always been on good terms with the eighth elder brother Yinzhen, and Yi discussed with the imperial doctor for treatment."
The fourteenth elder brother was both frightened and worried.
was shocked by the emperor's father's move, or he still attributed himself to the "Eight Masters Party"; What worries me is that if the matter is sent to my head, if the eighth elder brother has a mistake, he will have to take responsibility.
Under the anxiety, the fourteenth elder brother really had no choice, so he had to tell his biological mother, Concubine De, about the matter and seek a solution.
Concubine De pondered for a moment and said, "Don't think too much, just follow the holy decree and go on an errand." The prince is sick, and no one can bear it alone. The Zongren Mansion and the Internal Affairs Mansion, when will they not be used at this time? ”
"Eniang, Ya Jiang A's side is a child who can move? Without a holy decree, it is strange that he is willing to come forward. The fourteenth elder brother frowned.
"There's no Zongren Mansion, isn't there still the Interior Affairs Mansion? The Tai Hospital was originally a yamen subordinate to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the prince's elder brother was sick, so they could get involved? Concubine De said slowly.
When the fourteenth elder brother heard this, he was already stunned.
It is true that the Internal Affairs Office can't run away, there are two internal affairs directors in the capital, Dong Dianbang went to Tangquan, and only Cao Hao was left.
If it is really for the sake of the eighth elder brother, it is also a great good thing to tie Cao Hao to his boat.
Seon lost his horse, how do you know if it is a blessing?
The fourteenth elder brother raised his eyebrows, and the troubles of Fang Cai had been thrown out of the clouds......
