Chapter 914: Second Brother Not Pleased?
I just thought about it for a long time, and the fourth master didn't remember where he had heard this name.
"Su Peisheng, come and grind the ink." The fourth master shouted.
"The minions are here!" Su Peisheng hurriedly responded.
The fourth master walked to the bookcase, thought about it, picked up the pen and began to write a letter to Jingli. He wanted to find out what the background of this Batu was.
It had been a few days before the capital received the report of the great victory.
Kangxi is naturally a dragon-faced delight! Although some time ago, we also won the battle, but after all, we suffered heavy losses. But this time it's the opposite. Not to mention the victory, there are no losses, and there are a large number of loot, which can be regarded as raising eyebrows! It's just that when he saw that the tenth master was injured, his face still changed!
"Huang Ama, when the tenth brother comes back this time, you can give a good reward. Where has he ever suffered this? I was also wounded by an arrow this time, and I don't know what the level of the military doctor over there is, will it hurt my body? The prince looked concerned.
"Hmm. What you're saying is. I didn't even think he would really go to sea to fight! Kangxi said.
His words are exposed. It turned out that he didn't expect the Tenth Master to really go to sea to fight. The reason why he agreed to the tenth master and sent the fourth master to go with him was to give him a chance to see and mix military exploits.
"The tenth brother really wants to be motivated. Before leaving Beijing this time, he also came to ask his sons a lot of things on the battlefield, and also deliberately studied the climate, maps, and so on. The eighth master stood up and brushed up on the tenth master.
No matter how the tenth master's injury came about, since he has been injured, he must take this military merit seriously. It is also necessary to reverse the consistent image of the tenth master.
"Oh? Really? I really don't know. Sure enough, Kangxi was very surprised, and said with great relief: "The words of the ancients really make sense." Started a family, this is marrying Fujin, and I know that I have to support a house. ”
The eighth master stood aside with a smile on his face, and saw the prince looking over. He nodded slightly, and saw a sneer flash on the prince's mouth.
He knew that the crown prince was dissatisfied. After all, in the eyes of the prince, the tenth master and him are in a wave. The tenth master is motivated and makes meritorious contributions, but it is not half beneficial to the prince.
The eighth master didn't pay attention to it, but continued to keep the smile on his face.
Coming out of the Qianqing Palace, the prince looked at the eighth master who was about to leave and couldn't help but scream.
"Is there something wrong with His Royal Highness the Prince?" The eighth master slowly turned around and said.
"The relationship between the eighth brother and the tenth brother is really good! Now that the tenth brother has made meritorious contributions, is the eighth brother full of gratification? The prince smiled faintly.
"Isn't the second brother pleased?" The eighth master suddenly changed his title, and said with a slight smile: "Second brother, don't you want to see the younger brothers all motivated one by one?" ”
These words poked into the prince's heart! The last thing he wants to see now is for these younger brothers to rise one by one. The eighth master still asked like this, what a stab!
"Of course I hope. You are all motivated, just in time to share Huang Ama's worries! The prince tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"I think the same thing as my second brother. Thinking about it, the second brother is also very relieved today. The eighth master smiled.
Hearing this, the prince couldn't wait to grind his teeth, but he still had to maintain his demeanor, and said, "What the eighth brother said is true." Lonely is very relieved. ”
The eighth master nodded with a smile and said, "If the second brother is fine, the younger brother will leave the palace first." ”
Seeing the eighth master smiling so indifferently, the prince couldn't wait to give two slaps. But now at the gate of the Qianqing Palace, he has to endure no matter how angry he is, and gives a smiling and not smiling expression.
Looking at the back of the eighth master leaving, a trace of gloom flashed in the prince's eyes.
It wasn't until the eighth master went out of the palace gate and got into his own carriage that he finally couldn't help laughing! It's so delightful to see the prince holding his breath!
In the past, he was still thinking about how to have a good relationship with the prince, brush less presence in front of him, and try to weaken the competition with the prince. But at this point, it is impossible to repair the relationship between the two. Since this is the case, there is no need to maintain those face-saving things, and those who should be scolded back must be swept back.
It's a very refreshing feeling. It is really a pleasant thing to make the other person angry and not be able to be angry. Thinking about the times when he was aggrieved in front of the prince before, a smile appeared on the corner of the eighth master's mouth. In the future, he will give the prince more time to block his heart!
When he returned home, the eighth master told Mao Tongtong about the tenth master's injury as soon as possible.
"I don't know if the tenth brother will let people send letters to his house. I don't think I'll talk about it even if I send a letter home. He must also be afraid that the ten siblings will be worried. The eighth master said: "Don't miss your mouth when you read together." The fourth sister-in-law and the ninth brother and sister must also know it. ”
"yes, I see." Mao Tongtong nodded in understanding.
At this time, Badama knows that nothing can help except worry. And now that she is pregnant with a child, she is already sad because the tenth master is not in the house, and if she learns that the tenth master is injured, she may hurt her body when she gets excited.
"The tenth master's injuries are not serious, right?" Mao Tongtong asked again.
"The fourth brother said in the recital that it was not serious. It's good to keep it up for a while. The eighth master said: "Now that they have cleared the Japanese invaders, they want to be able to leave for Beijing soon." ”
"That's good. If it's too serious, it's hard to hide it, lest there be any change in between, and then Badama will blame us. Mao Tongtong said.
"Hmm. This is a report to Huang Ama, and the fourth brother does not dare to tell lies. "The eighth master said.
While the two were talking, Wu Youcai suddenly asked to see him outside, saying that a letter was sent from Fujian.
"Fujian?" The eighth master was a little surprised, and muttered to himself, "Could it be the fourth brother?" But what does the fourth brother have to explain to me alone? ”
Wu Youcai sent the letter in, and when the eighth master looked at the words on the envelope, he knew that it was the fourth master.
"Sure enough, it's the fourth brother." The eighth master said while opening the letter.
Mao Tongtong didn't lean over to look. In addition to the report to Kangxi, the fourth master also specially wrote a letter to the eighth master, most of which are political matters, and the less she knows, the better.
After reading the letter, the eighth master frowned.
"Tongtong, I'll go to the study first, and I'll come back for dinner."
"Well, go ahead." Mao Tongtong nodded.
Actually, she was quite curious. Because the eighth master only goes to the study for important things. Now the front yard is almost like an ornament. Most of the eighth master's time is in her Yile Garden. But today, I went to the study because of a letter from the fourth master, and obviously the content of this letter is not ordinary.
But she knew that curiosity killed the cat, so she didn't ask a word.
In the Tenth Master's Mansion, Badama didn't know about the Ten Masters' victory. Because the tenth master did not write a letter back to his family. And she has no channel to inquire about the news in the court. I still waited until the reading club to learn from Mao Tongtong and their mouths.
