Chapter 4 It's harder to be a brother
What do you want to ask the fourth elder brother how he feels?
In fact, she has long been used to it, and in her last life, until she died, she was planning for her fourteenth brother and sparing no effort to dig a pit to make him jump.
That is, he was lucky and became the winner, otherwise he would not be able to keep this Eniang and help bury him after he fell into the pit.
And in this life, it is the fourth elder brother's mother, not his.
Yongzheng is a stingy and cautious person, who loves and wants to live, and hates to die. Although it is not enough to let Concubine De die, just looking at her indifferent appearance, she is still unhappy in the end.
When Concubine De didn't know it, the fourth elder brother had already secretly made a note in her heart.
With the beginning of Concubine De, the attitude of the three concubines towards Yunlan is a little cold, and the reasons are also ready-made, everyone has this attitude, and it is always difficult for them to slap their sisters in the face. As for how things were, it can be seen from the occasional cruising to the makeup box rewarded by the Queen Mother.
After all, they are all people with children and daughters, who can not be careful.
Only Concubine Tong, she does not compete for favor, her status is dictated, she is very kind when she sees Yunlan, she helps people up, presses her hand, and says softly: "When my sister was alive, I decided for the fourth child, I didn't want to postpone it for a few years, but fortunately, the two of you finally got married, and she can rest assured." ”
Yunlan didn't know what to say, when Empress Tong Jia died, she was only seven or eight years old, and her family background was not obvious, so she really couldn't understand where she got into the eyes of Empress Tong Jia.
Maybe it's because he thinks of Concubine De's situation, and wants to find a partner who can rely on and support each other for the young and helpless fourth elder brother with a cold temperament, after all, if Yunlan has a family background like Bafujin's character, and the fourth elder brother is not the eighth elder brother, he will definitely not tolerate it, then the husband and wife will only become resentful.
Yunlan lowered her head, only making a shy, in fact, she didn't want to speak, the injury on her neck didn't heal, and because of the night of passionate worship, her voice was like a broken gong. The few words of greeting just now have been said with a hard throat.
The fourth elder brother slipped sorrow on his face when Concubine Tong spoke, he had feelings for his adoptive mother, even if he was not deep at the beginning, but under the backdrop of Concubine De, he naturally beautified the image of Queen Tong Jia in his mind.
In this life, he came back to life, but Queen Tong Jia still died of illness, and there was still no chance to see him again after all.
Concubine Tong sighed when she saw this, and she was happy for her sister.
Concubine De caught a glimpse of it, and her heart was even more unhappy.
In her opinion, you have to bear my indifference to you, but if you don't follow her, you will be disobedient and unfilial.
Does the fourth elder brother dare to be unfilial?
At least for now, the three mountains above us are still there, and everything has to be endured.
Concubine Tong's meeting gift gave a set of ruby heads, although she has no favor, she is not short of silver, not to mention that Queen Tong Jia also left a lot of private rooms for this sister before she died.
When Yunlan took it, she also pulled Yunlan and whispered: "Your queen mother also left a meeting gift, and I will send it to my brother when I go back." No matter how high-profile things are, she still can't do them. However, there are many eyes and ears in the palace, and there will be no fewer people staring at it, and this matter cannot be hidden.
This is also what Queen Tong Jia meant, she wants to take this opportunity to knock everyone, although she is dead, but the fourth elder brother is still there, even if it is an adopted son, he is also half a son-in-law.
Of course, this will have the opposite effect.
It's just that Empress Tong Jia seems to be the same cousin, your son of Hesheri can be the crown prince, why can't my son Tong Jia be the emperor.
She just wants the fourth elder brother to fight, even if she is forced. Since the name of the fourth elder brother was on the jade plate, even if he didn't want to fight, there was no way out.
What Queen Tong Jia did was to push her adopted son.
After the ceremony, the Queen Mother did not keep them, but called someone to send them to the Qianqing Palace.
The main owner left, and a few ladies were also bored, and after the queen mother revealed that she wanted to rest, she retired and left.
Concubine Wen Guifei was used to being in poor health, so she sat down and left directly.
Among the remaining five people, Concubine Rong asked Concubine Tong with a smile: "I don't know what treasures Sister Tong Jia left behind, I think it's not bad, after all, it's my daughter-in-law." ”
This is said harshly, and it is not pleasant to hear.
Concubine De sneered with a cold face: "Could it be that Sister Chengrong is like those shallow eyelids, and the things of the living are just worried, but ...... Hehe, "I have been immersed in the palace for many years, if I don't have any skills, she alone has the fastest promotion among several people?" Concubine Rong's intentions, she just understood it too well, so she didn't bother to pay attention to it.
What's more, a dead person, apart from some dead things, what else can be left?
No matter how capable she is Queen Tong Jia, she belongs to her Wu Ya clan, and she can't run.
"I don't care about it, I'm afraid that some people will climb the relationship and go up." Concubine Rong's face was ugly, and she said meaningfully: "Sister Concubine De and Sister Tong Jia are the closest, and no one else can compare." ”
Concubine Yi smiled slightly in the audience.
The palace maid who holds the foot-washing water is indeed close enough, but this history is almost the black history of Concubine De.
"Don't dare to be." Concubine De snorted, shook her sleeves and left.
Concubine Tong sighed when she saw this, and also took people back to the palace first.
Concubine Yi said to Concubine Hui, "Let's walk together." ”
"It's fine." Concubine Hui nodded: "I haven't drunk the tea of Yikun Palace for a while." ”
The second concubine tacitly knew that Kangxi did not come to Ningshou Palace, and what could make him make this choice was nothing more than the government and the prince, and the court had not heard of anything that had happened recently.
Then only the crown prince remains.
Prince Yinren has lived in Yuqing Palace since he was a child, and unlike other princes, he grew up with Kangxi almost alone.
Except, of course, the fourth elder brother.
When the fourth elder brother was still young, Queen Tong Jia also had the responsibility of taking care of the crown prince, and she was closer than others when she came and went, and it can also be said that the fourth elder brother also grew up in front of Kangxi.
The relationship between the two brothers is not bad, and at present, the fourth elder brother has also perfectly played the role of a little follower. As a staunch supporter of the princelings, the prince also spared no effort to win over this fourth brother with his heart.
He also understands that if he doesn't turn the fourth elder brother into his right-hand man, he may become his enemy.
When he knew that Yunlan's hanging might be a conspiracy against the fourth elder brother, he was directly stabbed in front of Kangxi.
Kangxi was furious at the moment.
It's not for Yunlan, a daughter-in-law's matter is not in his eyes. What's more, he already knew about this matter, and even made amends with the Queen Mother.
It's just that the prince doesn't know this, and what greets him is Kangxi's disappointment that the prince who taught him personally still does such a mindless thing.
Regardless of who is the real culprit behind the scenes, the intention to murder Sifujin is a royal scandal. Seeing that Kangxi was preparing to personally conquer Geerdan and needed the unity of the royal family, it was exciting, but the prince wanted to poke this matter out, isn't this dragging Lao Tzu back? What's more, in Kangxi's view, even if you want to do it, you shouldn't come out in person, this is a taboo to be a prince, too presumptuous, easy to arouse suspicion, at this time Kangxi still loves the prince very much, and he is the emperor who will be jealous if he doesn't think about it.
Kangxi can understand some of the prince's mentality, and the reason why he acquiesced in the fourth elder brother getting close to the prince was that he wanted to train the other party into a whetstone and hone the prince into a qualified emperor. Second, I also know that the identity of the fourth elder brother's half son-in-law will make the prince feel in crisis, but if he doesn't have the mentality of being prepared for danger in times of peace and only thinks about a comfortable life, then he is only suitable to be an idle prince rather than a prince or even an emperor.
When the fourth elder brother and Yunlan came, Kangxi's anger was still there.
After Yunlan asked for peace, he accepted Kangxi's reward, and followed the fourth elder brother out of the Qianqing Palace and walked to a palace next to him.
