Chapter 352: Godson
Sisi gave him a blank look. took his sons into the car and left, without looking at the old eight again.
After Lao Bamu sent Sisi away, he summoned his own carriage and asked his sons to go up, and he rode leisurely on the horse, and went back to the garden near him.
Today, Sisi said a word of gratitude, not to say that he spoke in front of the old man to ease the atmosphere, but to thank him for downplaying the whole incident to the greatest extent. If it spreads, the Manchu ministers will think that the Honghui brothers are still playing on the topic because of Xianzhi's matter, and deliberately retaliate against Arsonga. Now that he is so confused, he has become a child who is ignorant and high-spirited, so the favor that Lao Ba gave Sisi this time is a great gift, and he doesn't expect Sisi to be grateful, he just hopes that Sisi will stop using him as a competitor.
When he returned to his place, he took a shower and changed into comfortable homely clothes, and then lay on the rocking chair in the study and drank hot tea. Fan the cool breeze, looking at the two baby sons who still had a serious face, "Haven't figured it out yet?" ”
"Yes!"
"Your Emperor Marfa is right, Amma has forgotten the most important thing, and as he said, it is conscience. Honghui did the right thing, found the grievances, upheld justice, and asked for the people's lives, this is what Lord Belle should do, you are all people who have a good fortune, what is a good fortune? It is the people's fat and the people's ointment. The common people spend money to support us, but they don't let us step on them to look good. The eighth child was still smiling, but the smile made Baozi feel that his father's smile was very different from when he went to the study. He couldn't tell.
"But Huang Marfa still said they were wrong." Tuanzi was thoughtful, basically the old man didn't praise Honghui, but what he said meant was that he was wrong and he was not thoughtful.
The eighth smiled, put down the tea bowl, shook the fan, and let out a long sigh, "So you four uncles said that the most inexplicable thing in this world is the truth, what is the truth?" Anything you say is justified, it depends on what you say. So, you say, which is bigger? ”
Baozi and dumplings, think about what Sisi and Lao Ba said. It does make sense. The expression was even more painful.
The eighth didn't force them, he closed his eyes and thought of a series of things that happened to him in the people, at that time he was not as painful as Baozi and them at this time, but he had no choice, slowly, he began to believe that poor people must have something to hate, and tracing the root cause, although the superior is at fault, but the humble person is not necessarily without fault.
People can be self-reliant in order to be self-reliant, and they are like courtiers in front of the old man, isn't it also pitiful? But who has sympathized with himself? People will only say that they are useless, and they will not fight.
"Then do nothing?" It's still Baozi who asks, and his weird sense of fairness is still at work.
"So Amma said, until you don't have the ability, you won't do anything." Tuanzi said for the eighth child, but still sighed faintly, which was a bit too big for a child.
"Amma, are you capable now?" Baozi looked at his father with anticipation, and his father was already a prince. In addition to Huang Mafa in the world, even uncles have to give their fathers some face, not to mention the lower-class people.
"The new firebolt Amma gave you is still in your boots, right?" Instead of answering Baozi's question, Lao Ba asked a seemingly unrelated question.
"Of course." Although the two brothers were stunned, they immediately replied honestly.
"Is the new firearm any good?"
"Okay, it's lighter than what Huang Ma Fa gave, and it can be fired in bursts, the speed is much faster, and the sound is not so loud, my son often wants to show Huang Ma Fa and let him make more, and our Qing Dynasty will be invincible in the world." Baozi nodded seriously, he likes the new pistol very much, often fiddles, and now he has mastered the skills of operation, and can even quickly disassemble the gun and restore it.
"Then why didn't you tell Huang Marfa?" The eighth deliberately did not tell his sons to pay attention to confidentiality.
Baozi lowered his head and didn't explain, but his expression had already answered, they knew that this matter was very important, and they also knew that this was an important part of their parents' lives, in case it really didn't happen, their family would have to rely on this to escape from Beijing. So you can't let people know that they still have this secret weapon.
Lao Ba let out a long sigh again, "That's what it means, Amma's ability can only be used secretly outside, many things, even if Ama wants to." can't do it, this dynasty has too many entanglements, and when a common man collides with the criminal department, the old man naturally wants to keep the criminal department. Because when there is a variable of Honghui in the middle, then your Huang Marfa doesn't mind killing one or two county officials or even prefects.
Anyway, there are a lot of officials under the five grades of the Qing Dynasty, and the old man will be very happy to use one or two corrupt officials with no background to show the virtue of the old man. But not to compete with the system, even the old man himself, he didn't dare.
This is also the reason why he didn't ask about the case at all in Changchun Garden, because he knew very well that this kind of thing happened every day in various places, including in the capital, one Honghui can manage a few things, and he also directly pointed at the criminal department, the old man didn't mind dealing with a few petty officials at all, but when it really touched the bottom limit of the ministers, he had to scruple. ”
"The eldest brother has already stabbed the old man, and the criminal department knows how it will end." Tuanzi decided not to ask about the past, but about the future.
"Big things are small, small things are small. See for yourselves in a few days! The eighth smiled coldly. Thinking of Sisi's coffin face when he got into the car, he smiled again, Sisi didn't have so many words to himself, and he was willing to explain to his sons that Honghui was afraid that they would be punished when they went home, but what the old man said was thorough, Honghui should understand.
As the eighth child expected, the storm of clean government blew urgently, but it also ended quickly, Honghui led people into the criminal department, and quickly rescued the person who shouted injustice. By the way, several relevant petty officials were beheaded in the market, and Arsuna was guilty of the crime, and the old man punished him for half a year, and he was used for his original job.
The bun has also matured thoroughly after this battle, although his face is becoming more and more out of shape like the eighth child, but his reading is becoming more and more sophisticated, and even the little stories written by Xia Mo He took them out and re-read them, and thought about it seriously.
At the beginning of the fifty-fourth year of Kangxi, Baozi officially told the old man that he wanted to travel the world, and like his father, it was better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.
"You're not married?" The old man heard that Aling's family had been preparing the dowry since the marriage, and the people seemed to be much more anxious than the eighth family.
"My grandson is still young, isn't Xianzhi still young?" Baozi blushed a little.
"You still don't ask me, go and ask your Ama Eniang, just go out like this, can they be willing?" The old man can't afford this responsibility, isn't it, if Baozi says that he agrees, it should be a holy decree, and he will go out of Beijing directly, and the old man must not complain about him?
"If they agree, will Huang Marfa agree?" Bunzi's eyes lit up.
"Little slippery head, I won't be fooled by you, go back and tell your Ama Eniang, what I said, they promised me to agree, let them come to me for trouble?" Kangxi has been fighting wits and courage with him for many years, and he has lived in vain for so many years if he can't see through this.
"Huang Ma Fa, you just let your grandson go out to see the world!" The bun pulled the old man and sprinkled coquettishly.
"Why? It's not like you've never been out of Beijing, and I haven't taken you to Mongolia too? ”
"What can you see when you go out with Huang Marfa, my grandson wants to be like Amma, like a commoner." The bun is arrogant.
"And then?" The old man smiled, the eighth learned the three no's principles when he came back from a trip, could it be that Baozi also went out to learn this?
The bun choked, and he really went out, can he not listen to anything, ask or say anything like the eighth child? If so, what's the point of going out on your own?
"Think about it and come back." The old man patted the bun on the head. Laugh loudly.
In fact, the old man was not happy, he also knew that the matter of the Criminal Department was already a thorn in his heart for Baozi and Tuanzi, if he hadn't asked them to go to Changchun Garden to tear apart some hypocrisy, maybe everything would not have happened, Baozi is still the Lotte Baozi, although Tuanzi is gloomy, but it is still a caring little Tuanzi.
Now when the ugliness has been torn apart, and then you want to cover them again, how can that be? The buns matured instantly, and they did not participate in Honghui's case, and Honghui accepted the favor of the people, but was indifferent, which made the old man very moved.
For fear that his image in Baozi's mind would be damaged, in the past half a year, the old man has been resolute and let Sisi handle several big cases, just to let Baozi and Tuanzi see that he is not a vegetarian. Why do buns still have to go out at the beginning of the year?
Baozi went home and told his parents about his decision, Lao Ba and Xia Mo were supportive, children should have walked more, their minds would become broad-minded, and they could cultivate a sense of the overall situation. Every day is confined to this small square inch, no matter how good the children are, they are still very relieved about the buns, but they also have to ask as usual, "Can the old man agree?" ”
Baozi is helpless, yes, the old man will definitely not agree.
But it's also the wish of the bun, when the bun is in trouble, Taiwan's second master is sick, the old man has been planning to let the second Fujin and the children go to Taiwan to reunite with the old 2, but there is no excuse, the old man does not do things as he wants, he has to convince the other sons that it is not, now it's okay, the old 2 is sick, and it is natural for the second Fujin to take care of his husband in the past, so the old man immediately agreed.
And the emperor's eldest grandson Hongchen was at this time, a side Fujin was about to give birth to a child, and he couldn't get on the road, so Hongsheng went to the old man on the fold, anyway, he said a lot of good words, but he didn't mention the matter of side Fujin, saying that he should do his filial piety in the capital for his father...... It is precisely like this that makes people feel that he is actually afraid to go on the road for the sake of side Fujin.
In fact, this is nothing, the second master's family has to leave someone behind, and they can't all leave, but if Hongchen stays, then who will take on the heavy responsibility of sending the second blessing?
After the eighth child got the news, he hurriedly sent someone to inform the bun, if it was because of an errand and went out of Beijing, it was better than being trapped in Beijing, and after sending the second blessing, the bun could also be slowly stopped, and it was better than seeing nothing.
