Chu Yu has been pregnant for more than five months, his stomach has begun to show signs of conceit and he has become tired and sleepy.

As the end of the year approaches, there are still many chores in the mansion. Cao Yong was worried, so he asked Eunuch Tian to help. Eunuch Tian has been in the mansion for more than two months and has entrusted the housework in the house, which is also considered "righteous".

It was not Cao Yong who asked the ambassador to call him, but he took the initiative to ask for help.

After all, the emperor ordered him to come to Cao's mansion to serve as a servant, and his bones would be rusted if he stayed like this.

In addition to Eunuch Tian, ​​Tian and Niu Niu often stay in Wutongyuan. In recent years, they have followed Chu Yu and learned from the housekeeper. Niu Niu has only learned it in the past two years, and Tian has learned it when Amethyst was still alive.

Although the Tian family and his son are now living in Cao's Mansion, they still have to set up their own families when their brothers grow up and get married and have children.

Since the business in Guangzhou was settled, Cao Yong gave her part of the principal of Tian, ​​and the rest had been purchased and shops. Now, the account books are all under the control of Tian himself.

Because Niu Niu is getting older and will be married in a few years, she is taught by Chu Yu.

The two were named Sister-in-law, but who didn't know that Chu Yu was so worried about her.

The three-year draft finally settled.

In the royal family's royal palace, many families organized wedding events. Even ordinary officials also took advantage of the kung fu at the end of the year.

Hongxin, the fourth prince of the Prince of Chun County, pointed to his legitimate wife Dong E. He was the niece of the Ninth Concubine Jin. Because he was a partial branch, his father and grandfather did not show his official position. His grandfather served as a Taoist platform during his lifetime, and his father was now the chief minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

Hongxin is twenty years old this year, which is logically considered three years ago. But at that time, Nala was in poor health, and the mansion was in a mess, and he had no intention of getting a wedding, so he was delayed.

This brother-in-law has loved to stick to Chuyu and Cao Yong since he was a child, and he has the deepest relationship with them.

He was neither a legitimate nor a eldest, and even if he was awarded a title, he would be just a general in charge of the country. Therefore, Cao Yong and Chu Yu prepared a good place to send him to private property according to Hongzhuo's example.

The marriage date of the fourth prince's legitimate son Hongming was also set. On November 30, he would marry directly in the palace.

The Sixteenth Prince also got two concubines. I heard that Concubine Yi pointed out to him. Because he was not a high status, he did not hold a banquet.

The most annoying thing was Concubine De, her two niece-girls from her parents' family. She thought that Hongming was not good, so she pointed it to the fifteenth prince and the sixteenth prince as concubines, but she didn't want to be rejected by Kangxi, saying that her identity was not enough.

Although it was the truth, it hurt Concubine De's face.

She had been taking advantage of her discomfort to "retreat", but the 14th Prince went to pay her respects and didn't know how to comfort her, but she finally got better.

Since the two nieces and granddaughters had left their signs, they always had to give an explanation. But at this time, the emperor's grandson and the royal family with high titles were almost the same. In desperation, they pointed to the two royal generals.

There is an atmosphere of weddings everywhere. Every day, you can hear the sound of firecrackers on the road.

Occasionally I took a break and went out for social events, and it was also wedding banquets for each family.

Seeing others marrying women and daughters, Cao Yong thought of the children at home, and felt that he was old.

On this peaceful day, there was a thunder rushing on the ground and someone knocked on it.

Hegong was dismissed from his post and wrote a letter to Nie Dafeng, and sued the governor of the river, Zhao Shixian, who invaded and deceived the money and condoned his family to accept bribes.

It really caused a lot of waves, which caused a lot of controversy between the government and the country.

On the same day, there was an order to come down. The river governor Zhao Shixian came to Beijing for trial, and the printing affairs were represented by Chen Pengnian, editor-in-chief of Wuying Palace.

This river yamen involves the errands of six provinces, which is a big piece of fat. If there are too many people, people are naturally afraid of climbing and biting it out, so they will wait with their necks.

The person in charge of the trial of this matter was Zhang Penghong, the Minister of Personnel. He had been ups and downs in the officialdom for decades, but he didn't know how powerful it was.

The riot was so intense, but in the end it was still loud and the raindrops were small.

The pen and posting style of the knocking pen was designated as "false". Zhao Shixian was demoted to the sixth level for improper selection of officials. Instead, two officials from the river were charged with embezzlement of "reeds", and the department was punished with serious punishment.

This time, the Ministry of Revenue also affected the Ministry of Revenue.

However, the Ministry of Revenue has a fourth prince in the hall and is in an orderly manner. The accounts between the two river yamen are clearly checked and nothing can be found.

However, Cao Yong watched coldly and became more and more shocked.

This officialdom is really terrifying. Even if a person with a low rank is committed to his duty, he may be punished by the Shangguan; if a person with a high rank is close to the emperor, he will take the blame for the emperor.

Thinking of Cao Xiang being away, Cao Yong was a little worried, and his brothers had more diligent letters than in the past.

In December, the aftermath of the case was still alive, and Shanxi Governor Su Keji Ding's mother was dismissed from office, and the cabinet bachelor, the Governor of the Deyin Bureau, was in charge of Shanxi Governor.

Although according to ethics, officials are just a matter of justice, bannermen do not value filial piety like Han people. Han officials have few people who have lost their feelings; the official position depends on the emperor's mood.

Just like the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Jueluo Manbao, who is also Ding Muyou, who is responsible for robbing love.

Like the Cao family and the Li family, because they were royal robbers, the emperor wanted loyalty and he could not worry.

Su Keji lost his holy heart and had a long history of his journey.

After the February examination this year, the "fraud case" was investigated. Although there was no evidence in the end, among the ministers named by Kangxi, Su Keji, and his two nephews were on the list.

This is the third governor who resigned in a year. The first two were the governor of Yunnan, Jiang Chenxi, who was ordered to send grain to Tibet; and the former governor of Shaanxi, E Hai, who went to Turpan to farm.

These are all old ministers, and they were awarded by Kangxi in their early years.

Originally, Cao Yong thought it was because of the geographical location of Yunnan and Shaanxi, which made Kangxi afraid and replaced the ministers from these two places, so as not to connect them with the fourteenth prince in the Northwest Army.

This time, even the Governor of the River and the Governor of Shanxi were replaced, which was a matter of consideration.

You should know that Chen Pengnian, who replaced Zhao Shixian as the governor of the River, was a famous upright person. He has been in Jiangnan for more than ten years and has been in Jiangnan. He offended two governors of Jiangnan for the first time. He was falsely beheaded and was lenient and exempted from death. The latter was defeated by Gali and was recalled to the capital to compile books. This silence lasted for more than ten years.

Such a person has no foundation at all.

Another cabinet scholar, De Yin, was not famous and was exposed for the first time.

This is dealing with the old minister, Cao Yong was secretly shocked.

I wonder if Kangxi's intention was to protect his ministers or just in case.

A newly appointed governor and a governor who have been re-elected for many years have an incomparable influence in the local area.

Next year is the 61st year of Kangxi. Cao Yong only remembers two things about this year, one thing Kangxi is lucky to meet Hongli in Wangyuan, and the other thing Kangxi dies.

For some reason, thinking about these things makes people feel urgency.

In a blink of an eye, it was the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, and Hongxin got married on the same day.

Cao Yong and his wife took Tianyou and Hengsheng to the Prince Chun’s Mansion for drinking. Tianyou and Hengsheng met the Hongli and Hongzhou brothers of Prince Yong’s mansion for the first time.

These two young princes are the same age as Chu Yu's half-brother Hongjing, and Prince Yong's mansion and Prince Chun's mansion are in the Inlaid White Banner. These skinny boys have met in the Inlaid White Banner official room. Somehow they have a friendship, but they are more close than other cousins.

Tianyou is the grandson of the Prince's Mansion. He is not considered a separation from the same place as these young princes.

Tianyou's appearance, combined with his parents' strengths, is handsome and beautiful. Hongli and Hongjing are also willing to get close to him. Hangsheng is so smart that he is honest and cute, but he is right for Hongzhou's appetite.

Hongzhou was lively and fond of moving, and thought the wedding banquet was boring. He heard that Hang Seng was very powerful, so he insisted on pulling Hang Seng to the school to play. Although everyone was the first meeting, the little prince was enthusiastic, so Hang Seng naturally listened with a smile.

Hongjing, Hongli and the others felt that it was cold outside and wanted to take Tianyou to Hongjing's yard to see the kaleidoscope. Tianyou was worried about his younger brother and wanted to go with Hengsheng, but was persuaded by Hongli.

On the side of the school ground, there was a piece of cast iron hanging, which was usually used by the instructor of the mansion to gather guards.

Now, it is the cold and cold season, and there is a layer of white frost hanging outside the cast iron.

Hongzhou has always been accustomed to making trouble. After walking around the cast iron twice, he stopped and had an idea, and his eyes fell on Hang Seng.

Heng Seng was stupid and unaware of it. He even measured several stone piers on the ground to show off his new friends.

"Hengsheng, come here!" Hongzhou's eyes were circling, and he smiled terrified, and he called Hangsheng over.

"What are you doing?" Heng Seng stood up, wondering why this new friend smiled so happily.

"Hang Seng, look, what is this?" Hong Zhou pointed to the hanging cast iron: "This is the frosting of cast iron, it's so sweet."

Hang Seng tilted his little head, but he was a little confused.

Hongzhou's eyes shined, he sucked from the cast iron, put it in his mouth, and said with a smile: "It's so sweet!"

Children love sweets, and Hang Seng is no exception. However, Chu Yu is afraid that the children will eat their teeth and control their sweets.

When Hengsheng listened to Hongzhou's words, he didn't understand why there was icing on the outside.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Hongzhou pulled down his little face and said, "You are still fooling you? If you don't believe it, lick it yourself."

How could Hang Seng withstand this? He gave birth to a small arm and wanted to learn from Hongzhou's appearance and rub the frost on cast iron.

Hongzhou stopped his arm and said, "Look directly with his tongue, it's sweeter."

Hengsheng did not doubt that he was there, scratched the back of his head, and said with a silly smile: "Then I lick here, leave the rest for my brother and the princes."

"Yeah, yeah!" Hongzhou nodded with a smile and watched Hang Seng approach the cast iron.

In the past nine days, the warm little tongue stuck to the cast iron and could not be returned.

Not only his tongue, but Hang Seng even glued half of his lips to the cast iron.

Hang Seng only felt his tongue numb and wanted to speak, but he couldn't. He could only ask Hongzhou for help. For a moment, his little face turned red and tears had already come out.

Hongzhou succeeded in his prank and wanted to laugh, but he was also a little shocked when he saw Hengsheng's pitiful appearance.

"Shut your mouth and back your tongue!" Hongzhou stepped forward and said in a panic.

Once Hang Seng tried hard, he didn't retreat from the cast iron, and his tongue was also numb.
Chapter completed!
