At the end of May, Korqin and Shuozhuo Liketu Prince Bat Ma came to court. Accompanying him was his third son, Gushan Elu Laxi.

Because of that dowry, the Cao family had contacts with the prince's mansion. At the end of last year, Cao Hao prepared a gift for the palace in the name of his mother. On the side of the palace, in the name of Prince Fujin, he sent people to Cao's mansion to ask for peace for the Li family.

Although it was not revealed, both the Li family and Cao Hao acquiesced to the fact that Horqin was the Li family's foreign family.

It is really Yuyin's real life experience that involves the royal secrets of the year, and it has been a long time since the years. Therefore, the clue left in front of outsiders, Yuyin is the noble daughter of Horqin. Even the Li family and Cao Hao, who were descendants of the people at that time, thought so.

She went out of the palace to give birth to a daughter, Xu was involved in the first emperor's concubine, and Xu was involved in Kangxi and Prince Yuxian, so it was not known to the world.

Even Batma's nephew is regarded as "Concubine Hui" as a noble daughter close to Horqin, and the Li family has Horqin's blood in his body. Therefore, they treat Cao Hao and Hengsheng as relatives honestly.

On the first night they arrived in Rehe, they had a kiss with Cao Hao and Hengsheng.

In terms of seniority, Cao Hao wants to call Bat Ma "uncle" and Laxi "cousin".

Over the years, Cao Hao has followed the Saiwai several times and dealt with the Mongols a few times, and has a good impression of the Mongols. Not to mention the side, that year, when the Taifu Siqing was appointed, he went to inspect the pastures outside the mouth, and if he hadn't met the help of Mongolian herdsmen, he would have been buried in the white snow.

Although Bad Ma is a prince, he has lived in Horqin for most of his life, and he is still an open-minded surname, drinking wine and not allowing young people.

Lassi was a few years younger than Cao Hao, and it was the first time he had seen this cousin, but he was very happy to see him.

He came this time to meet his father with His Majesty. If you don't go on a business trip, after the father and son see each other, Bart Ma will hand over the seal to his son.

Rasi and Sukhbaru were in a similar situation, both were young sons. If it is left in the early years, the Mongols inherit the family business by their youngest son; Nowadays, under the influence of Confucian culture, the royal palaces of Mongolia are also mainly inherited by the eldest son. In this way, the status of other concubines is a little embarrassing, and they have no right to inherit the title, and they are not completely dependent on the palace like concubines.

Entering Beijing on an errand and seeking opportunities to make contributions has also become a way out for the sons and daughters of the Mongolian princes.

Although there are children in the palace of Prince Zhuoliketu in Beijing, most of them are collateral and their identities are not obvious.

Cao Hao's identity is hot, and now he is the official of the real power of the household department, it is best to help him, Bat Ma thought of this, and he only felt relieved.

In the early years, the women of Horqin held half the sky in Manchuria. When Emperor Taizong was alive, three of the five concubines in the harem were from Horqin; During the lifetime of Emperor Shizu, although the Horqin woman was not favored by the emperor, she occupied the back position; By the time he ascended the throne, Manchuria had already sat firmly in the world and no longer needed Horqin's help, so Mongolian nobles rarely entered the palace.

On the contrary, Aixin Jueluo's family is Gege, but he continues to marry into Mongolia, making Mongolians mostly become nephews of Aixin Jueluo's family.

Just as the imperial court guarded against the Mongols, the Mongols guarded against the Manchurians.

After the court's decree of marriage, Batma told Lassi that Gege must be married, but no matter what Gege's character is, he cannot be the mother of his grandson.

This is done just for the inheritance of the Golden Family's bloodline. It's not that I'm worried about my grandson who has Manchurian ancestry, but I'm worried that my grandson, who is the nephew of Aixinjue Luo, will become a soft knife for the imperial court to capture the Mongols.

This kind of thing is not uncommon.

The court looked for the son to be held accountable to the Mongol princes, seized the title and punished the crime, and then ordered the nobles of the clan to take the title of Taiji. Not only did he rightfully meddle in Mongolia's internal affairs, but he also controlled various Mongolian ministries in disguise.

When Ni Duan first appeared, these Mongolian princes thought of resisting, which is why there are so many clan daughters who marry into Mongolia, and only a few can really have children and reproduce. Those who can give birth to children are not princesses, who have a noble status and are not subject to the jurisdiction of the palace; If it weren't for the extremely low status, it would be a distant branch.

Like Baoya, it is not easy to give birth to two sons-in-law safely. Among them, thanks to the side Fujin, because of her high-profile favor and a pair of children, Baoya's marriage has become prosperous and unnoticed. Then, Baoya's youthful vitality and "grace" also made her husband feel compassion to some extent.

The story of that family, if it is really told, can also sprinkle a few large articles, so I will not mention it here for the time being.

After three rounds of drinking, Bart Ma spoke straightforwardly, did not beat around the bush, and as an elder, he saluted Cao Hao's three glasses of wine. It's just a loving father's heart, please take care of his young son more.

Cao Hao didn't dare to hold it up, stood up, and said "don't dare to be".

To tell the truth, Lassi is a descendant of the prince's mansion, and at worst he can be crowned a prince, and his status and title are more prominent than Cao Hao. is out of office, with the identity of Laxi, even if he does not have any resume, he is still from the second grade.

Bart Ma drank most of the catty, and his tongue was already a little hard. Seeing that Cao Hao was not happy, the old man was a little annoyed, and patted the table for a while in Mongolian and Chinese for a while.

Cao Hao saw him pulling his voice, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he nodded hurriedly.

Even if Bad Ma doesn't say these words, Laxi enters Beijing, he can still help. When he said "don't dare to be" he said that it was not good for the elders to toast, and it was not good to hold the big ones to "take care" of the cousins of the peers.

Seeing this, Bart Ma smiled.

Still Lassi felt embarrassed, and while the old man was not paying attention, he whispered to Cao Hao: "Abba is drunk, please take care of my cousin." ”

Cao Hao waved his hand and told him not to take it to heart.

The next time, Batma and his son saw the driver, and Lassi was given the title of auxiliary prince. Speaking of which, the seal is really not high.

For this result, it is difficult to say what the father and son of Bad Ma think in their hearts, but they are all happy to the outside world, and they are going to feast two guests, and the father and son of the Cao family are the guests.

Hengsheng, this little guy, from being cautious at the beginning, to pulling his neck and shouting "uncle" and "uncle", didn't even bring the word "table", I didn't know, I thought he was Bad Ma's own grandson.

Obviously, Bart Ma is a little happy about the misunderstanding of the outside world. He also made a special trip to make a few small Mongolian robes and gave them to Hengsheng.

Although Heng Sheng was full of curiosity, he only thought that these clothes were brightly colored, and he was embarrassed to wear them in front of people. Only Bara and Chi Na, when they saw this new tuft of robes, were eager for the little master to put them on immediately. However, they didn't talk much, and after half a year in Beijing, they also knew what "scruples" were.

In mid-June, Cao Hao received a letter from Wei Hei informing him that he had arrived in Xi'an with Fang Gong.

Shi Shilun was seriously injured, almost unable to survive, looking at what Wei Xin said, it should be past the dangerous period, and he will not be able to die for a while.

Cao Hao breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably in his heart.

In the following days, the official office of the household department made trouble in front of the emperor for the value of Shengjing rice grain.

Since a few years ago, the imperial court had ordered the Eight Banners to reclaim the fields, and now it seems to have come to an end. This reclamation has increased year by year, and the harvest has been abundant.

However, this reclaimed rice grain has become a big problem.

As soon as there is more rice and grain, it makes the folk valley cheap. There is a law in the partial court, and the northeast is the land of Longxing, and the other is to seal the harbor and prohibit the rice valley from entering the sea.

Cao Hao frowned when he heard this.

It was the rule of the imperial court, so that there was a surplus of grain and rice outside the Guan, and there was no grain relief in the southern provinces.

Cao Hao thought about it, and his only idea was to rationalize the transportation and management of rice outside the Guanwai.

First of all, there are the boats.

You can't use private boats, after the Manchurian Eight Banners entered the customs, their hearts were not steady, and they were always worried that the Eight Banners would be driven out of the customs. The best way to do this is to use official ships.

Second, the situation in several southern provinces in recent years should be written. With this Chen, Cao Hao is much more down-to-earth, although Kangxi cherishes his reputation, but he can't do it to prevent the back door and starve to death the people in need of relief.

A few days later, there was a holy decree, "Shengjing Shengjing rice grain, there is no need to ban it, let it be sold by sea." However, this sea transportation is not something that ordinary people can control. The imperial court will not allow outside forces to intervene, and it should be used to carry out the fortune.

As for where these southbound rice are transported, Kangxi's holy decree is also clearly written. Fujian, Guangdong, Zhejiang, a total of 300,000 stones. These rice are not subject to customs, are not taxed, and do not have to bear the cost of freight.

Although the matter of transporting rice was finally handed over to the Caoyun Yamen and did not do anything about the household department, Cao Hao was also quite happy and did his best to make more people healthy, which seems to be a good deed.

* Beijing, Cao Fu.

Today is the test list of the hospital, and Tianyou went to the Zhengbai Flag Official School, and he was not at home. Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng, two brothers, studied with their masters in a private school in the house.

The two sat behind a few cases, shaking their heads and reciting books, looking different from the usual. But looking at the two brothers, they kept looking at the door, and they knew that they were not as calm as they appeared.

After staying up until noon, Fan Fuzi finished teaching the homework and told the students to disperse, and the two brothers did not wait for news.

"It's not going to be the first place, is it?" Zuo Cheng said with a little apprehension.

Zuo Zhu listened, frowned, and said, "Even if I fall with my second brother, there is still Brother Zhan." Xu is delayed in releasing the list, and it is not guaranteed. ”

As the brothers were talking, they heard a commotion outside: "Hit, the three masters have been hit." Don't hurry up and give good news to the old lady and wife! ”

The two brothers glanced at each other, both afraid that they would listen to each other.

It wasn't until someone came to look for them, the one who went to the Yamen of Shuntianfu in the morning to look at the list, that the two brothers really believed it.

In just a few moments, the ladies in the backyard knew the good news.

Although it is said that the fame of this "Xiucai" is really nothing, and few people are willing to pass the test one by one. Even if there are children who love to study, they will donate a prison student directly, and then directly participate in the township examination, there are no longer a few.

In Tian's room, Tian's is really "crying with joy".

She knelt in front of her deceased husband's tablet, with a little piety on her face, a little unusually persistent, and just babbling like that, not noticing that her two sons had returned, and stood behind her.

Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng were both stunned, if they didn't hear it wrong, then did they mention their father and ancestor.

When I was a child, they didn't understand why my father was a wooden brand, but after a little memory, I knew that this was my father, and my father was sick and gone, why is it now involved in "wrongdoing" and "death"?
