The two brothers know each other's thoughts, but they don't say anything about it, but even so, the two brothers Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei are still almost as deep as the sea, and now if it weren't for something big in the Tong family, Tong Guogang would never have stepped on the door of this younger brother's family for the rest of his life.

So Tong Guowei also knew that he had to win Tong Guogang's support at this time, otherwise he would not let Tong Guogang come over at all and accept his cynicism.

Tong Guowei kicked the juniors in the study out of the room, and then Tong Guowei explained to Tong Guogang in a low voice, "Big brother, although our family looks good now, but after all, the queen mother died early, and the emperor may only have face left for our family. ”

Tong Guogang's face turned blue and white for a while, and I have to say that Tong Guowei happened to say the hidden worries in his heart, Tong Guogang didn't look at his extremely arrogant personality, but in fact, he was much smarter than Tong Guowei, and he also knew that if they were just Kangxi's mother, they were not safe, so Tong Guogang also turned a blind eye to Tong Guowei's efforts to let his daughter enter the palace.

The reason why Tong Guogang tolerated Tong Guowei's small actions was also because he was the patriarch, and Tong Guogang could still tolerate things that were beneficial to the Tong family, but he was still unhappy in his heart.

This is also the reason why he came to Tong Guowei's mansion today, Tong Guogang knows the seriousness of the matter, but as soon as he sees Tong Guowei, Tong Guogang can't help his temper.

Now seeing Tong Guowei in a low voice, he is still quite useful, but Tong Guowei's previous behavior of not pleading with Kangxi made Tong Guogang instinctively feel a little worried.

Tong Guogang thought of this and asked, "What do you mean by that plea?" ”

Tong Guowei was relieved to see that Tong Guogang was no longer picky, but talked about business, so he said: "Big brother, I mean that since you are guilty of the crime, it is better to ask for the crime in the name of the concubine family in Jingren Palace." ”

Tong Guogang was amused by Tong Guowei's words, and said while laughing: "Second brother, you are a demon, your daughter has not entered the palace yet, and she still wants Jingren Palace as a dormitory..."

The more Tong Guogang spoke, the more he felt that something was wrong, and suddenly a terrifying look shot out of his eyes, looking at Tong Guowei, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Could it be the Empress Dowager that you are talking about?" ”

Tong Guowei saw that his eldest brother suddenly became like this, and his heart was a little weak, he also knew that it was not appropriate for him to do this, and he slapped the emperor in the face. I could only hold on and say, "Yes!" ”

As soon as Tong Guowei's words fell, Tong Guogang picked up the teacup at hand and threw it on Tong Guowei's head, but Tong Guowei was not powerless, so he quickly dodged.

Tong Guowei was really angry at this time, looked at Tong Guogang complainingly, and said: "What is the eldest brother doing, what has the younger brother done to anger and resent?" ”

Tong Guogang saw that Tong Guowei was quite reasonable, and he didn't know what to say.

Tong Guogang said angrily: "You still dare to ask for guilt in the name of the Empress Dowager?" Who sits on the throne? That's the son of the former queen mother, this is the emperor in an unrighteous place! "If Tong Guowei really does this, then the emperor will be attacked and annihilated by the courtiers, even if he doesn't pay attention to the affairs of the harem, he will know that the emperor has actually searched Jingren Palace, and when the time comes, those Hanchens will write to say that Kangxi is not filial, which is definitely not a small blow to Kangxi!

At that time, even if Kangxi explained that there were assassins in Jingren Palace, but now Kangxi is not the emperor who is full of words, and everyone will only think that the emperor is prevaricating when they know about it. Therefore, Tong Guowei's actions are definitely not a good thing for Kangxi.

Tong Guowei was a little weak at first, but he then thought that he was the emperor's uncle, and it was nothing to do this, so he said confidently: "What the eldest brother said is too serious, if something happens in this harem, don't you have to ask for offense in the previous dynasty!" ”

Tong Guowei didn't say anything, Tong Guogang didn't think about it yet, Tong Guogang asked urgently: "What other concubine family?" Are you still a sister or a concubine back then? ”

Tong Guogang remembered the difficulties of the year, when the Mongolian concubine of the Shunzhi harem was domineering, the first queen mother was repeatedly punished because she was made difficult by the Mongolian concubine, and at that time their Ama Tong Tulai had died, so the two brothers had to write a letter to ask for guilt, saying that the goddaughter was not strict, but this is also a case in the officialdom, after all, the concubine was punished in the palace, it was definitely not the emperor's fault, so if you find a person who made a mistake, it must be the family that is looking for the concubine.

Tong Guowei listened to the tone of ridicule, and still quibbled: "My sister is not the queen and has been promoted to the queen mother, so it is okay to use a sentence from the concubine family!" ”

Tong Guogang was almost speechless with anger, pointed at Tong Guowei and scolded: "It's okay to fart, you are pointing at the emperor's nose and scolding the emperor for being a concubine, if you really want to do this, don't use the banner of the Tong family, the Tong family can't stand your toss like this!" ”

Tong Guogang's temperament is said by everyone in the capital to be a bastard and he doesn't know the etiquette, but Tong Guogang seems that his younger brother Tong Guowei is bold.

Even if Tong Guogang is just a martial artist, he also knows some of the crooked things of the Han people, and the emperor now wants to follow the Confucian set of things, so he naturally has to follow the rules, and the difference between the concubine and the concubine is too great, just look at the emperor's treatment of the concubine Cheng Cobalt and other sons, you know that the emperor also agrees.

And Tong Guogang lives with himself, his concubine does not have a high status in his heart, and his son Oro Dai bullies his concubine openly, he also turns a blind eye, I am afraid that the emperor will think so in his heart. The emperor will not mind his status as a concubine.

Now Tong Guowei's move will undoubtedly insert the emperor's lung tube. When the time comes, as soon as Tong Guowei's excerpt goes up, how will the emperor not hate Tong Guowei, and even the Tong family.

Seeing this, Tong Guogang naturally wanted to stop Tong Guowei's stupid actions.

Tong Guowei still looked unwilling, Tong Guogang saw Tong Guowei like this, a little strange, and suddenly remembered a certain possibility and asked directly: "Are you joining forces with the Empress Dowager?" ”

Tong Guogang remembered the news he had heard before, because Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei were next to each other, so Tong Guogang knew more or less the news in Tong Guowei's mansion, he heard that the Empress Dowager had secretly sent someone to contact Tong Guowei before, and now seeing Tong Guowei's somewhat empty expression, Tong Guogang knew that it was true!

No wonder Tong Guowei insisted on going to the fold even if he would offend the emperor, it turned out that he had found the next home.

Tong Guowei asked with a stunned face, "How do you know?" ”

Tong Guowei was not stupid in the end, thinking that even if their brothers were not in harmony, it would not affect the intimate relationship between the two governments too much, Tong Guogang knew that it was not surprising, thinking of this, Tong Guowei secretly made up his mind and decided to rectify the mansion well.

Tong Guogang said angrily: "Join forces with the Empress Dowager? Don't forget how the Tong family got to this point! Can the emperor spare you? Have you spared the Tong family? ”

Tong Guowei said unconvinced: "Could it be that our Tong family is safe and keeps to itself, and the emperor will worry about our family?" The younger brother and daughter have been in the palace for so long, and the emperor even gave your niece a brand, as well as the title of first-class duke on your eldest brother, and the emperor has not been crowned for a long time, isn't he dissatisfied with our Tong family? The Empress Dowager promised that when the time comes, our two brothers will not be less in the first class public position! ”

Tong Guowei said this, and he had forgotten how many black hands Tong Guogang had on the way to inherit the duke's position. And the Empress Dowager disagreed with Tong Guogang's succession to the position of first-class duke.

And the Empress Dowager only promised him the position of a first-class duke, and there was no Tong Guogang, but this did not delay Tong Guowei from fooling his eldest brother.

The position of the first-class duke was so precious in the Qing Dynasty that without enough merit, there was no need to think about the position of the first-class duke.

The first-class position of the Tong family is Kangxi because his biological mother posthumously gifted his father Tong Tulai, that is, Kangxi's grandfather, and now this first-class public position has not been inherited by Tong Guogang, but outsiders call Tong Guogang his father, which is also the reason why Tong Guowei jumps up and down so much, and now he still has the strength to earn, if the first-class public security is inherited by Tong Guogang safely, he has no hope at all!

Although Tong Guogang felt that it was not appropriate, he was still moved. God knows that since Kangxi posthumously awarded him Ama the position of first-class duke, he has been thinking about when he will be able to inherit this first-class duke, but Tong Guowei is also very thoughtful, and Tong Guogang is also in crisis.

And although the emperor in the palace wanted him to be a first-class duke, after many years, the emperor did not officially award the reward, and Tong Guogang almost lost patience.

So after listening to the promise of the Empress Dowager, even if Tong Guogang was skeptical, he was a little moved.

Tong Guogang asked with some uncertainty: "Will the Empress Dowager break the contract halfway, and where is the emperor?" ”

Tong Guowei was overjoyed when he saw Tong Guogang's intentions, for Tong Guowei, as long as Tong Guogang was dragged into the water, it would be very beneficial to him, but he did not leak it on his face, and replied very affirmatively: "Aren't we still in control of that matter?" The Empress Dowager won't tear her face with us, as for the emperor... Big brother, now that the old fox in Tuhai is in the emperor's current position, where can the emperor look down on us, and the emperor is younger after all, the empress dowager is old and seeks the country, and the emperor can't compare with it overnight. ”

Tong Guowei's words made Tong Guogang hesitate, it stands to reason that their Tong family is the emperor's uncle, as long as the emperor does not fall, their Tong family will not have any problems, but the emperor has always been a little reluctant to leave the Tong family, which makes Tong Guogang a little worried. And the fact that his niece was picked up made him gloat, but the emperor's merciless attitude also made Tong Guogang feel cold.

However, as soon as Tong Guowei mentioned that incident, Tong Guogang knew that he couldn't hesitate, this matter was too much to do, it was related to the former emperor and his sister, and if they were not careful, their family would die without a place to be buried, so Tong Guogang would not be willing to mention it at all.

Tong Guogang asked quietly: "You didn't tell the Empress Dowager that you know about this, right?" ”

Tong Guowei didn't know that Tong Guogang had changed his mind again, and thought that Tong Guogang was really moved, so he hurriedly replied: "This matter is very important, the younger brother doesn't dare to tell others easily, and the younger brother hasn't replied to the person sent by the Empress Dowager!" ”

Tong Guogang asked again: "The Empress Dowager's people are still in your mansion?" ”

Tong Guowei said: "That person is still there, hasn't the younger brother been hesitating before?" ”

Tong Guogang breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly: "You don't have to meddle in this matter, I will deal with it from the Empress Dowager, and you don't have to go on the fold." ”

Tong Guowei saw that his brother seemed to be about to take over the initiative in the transaction with the Empress Dowager, so he was very anxious, and stood up to stop Tong Guogang and said, "Brother is too unkind like this!" ”

Tong Guogang finally couldn't help but scold: "Don't be kind, bullshit, if you tell the Empress Dowager about it, the entire Tong family will have something to do!" ”

Tong Guowei couldn't believe it and asked, "Impossible!" ”

Tong Guowei's tone of retort was not very strong, and at this time, Tong Guowei finally did not fall into the obstacle, he began to think that the Empress Dowager would not do this, and he was in a cold sweat when he thought of this.

Tong Guogang replied with a disdainful face: "I can't say that this is the Empress Dowager testing whether you know about the original incident, if you really threaten her with this matter, it will be in her arms!" Tong Guogang obviously selectively forgot that he was also shaken before.

Tong Guowei's expression was a little dazed, he was also blinded by the Empress Dowager's promise of the first-class public position at first, but now he was reminded by Tong Guogang that he finally discovered the Empress Dowager's sinister intentions.

Tong Guowei knew his mistake and said: "Thank you for the reminder, otherwise the little brother will jump into the trap!" Tong Guowei really wanted to thank Tong Guogang at this time, Tong Guowei can imagine that if he really did this, I am afraid that he would not want to live! Even the Tong family will not end well.

Tong Guogang saw that his younger brother had a rare sincere look, and felt a little strange, Tong Guogang stared straight at Tong Guowei, and Tong Guowei was very embarrassed.

Then Tong Guowei asked again: "How should the Empress Dowager deal with it?" ”

Tong Guogang waved his hand and replied: "Don't worry, just hand over that person to the emperor!" ”

Tong Guowei was a little puzzled and asked, "Big brother, can the Empress Dowager let the emperor dispose of it?" ”

Tong Guogang couldn't see the suspicious appearance of Kangxi just now, and replied righteously: "The emperor can control the government, it can be seen that he is also ambitious, so if the emperor knows that the empress dowager wants our family to have such a fold, the emperor will tolerate it." ”

Tong Guowei was worried about whether Kangxi could suppress the Empress Dowager, so he asked about it.

Tong Guogang said: "If it's just the emperor, I'm also worried, but what if Tuhai intervenes in this matter?" ”

Tong Guowei had to admit that if it was Tuhai, the emperor's chances of winning were not small. However, Tong Guowei was still a little puzzled, "How did the eldest brother know that Tuhai intervened in this matter?" Just because Tuhai is on the emperor's side? ”

Tong Guogang said: "Do you know why Mama Qian was caught by the emperor? ”

Tong Guowei said: "Didn't the emperor arrest it?" The emperor is a little reckless in this matter. ”

Tong Guogang shook his head and replied: "Of course it wasn't caught by the emperor, as you said, the emperor has a calm temperament, and he can't wait there, it was Concubine Zhao who found a way to find Mama Qian's fault, so she was tried by the emperor!" ”

If Yun Yao knew that Tong Guogang knew that she was the one who arrested Mama Qian, she would think that Tu Hai would only cry and laugh if she interfered, and this matter could really be regarded as a very coincidence.

But Tong Guowei believed it, there was no way, no one doubted Tu Hai's ability, if the emperor did this, they would still feel that the emperor was reckless, but if Tu Hai was an old fox, they had to think about why Tu Hai acted like this. This is also the prestige that Tuhai has accumulated over the years.
