Chapter 570

"Strange."

"What am I to blame?"

"I blame you for crying again."

"Master, all five grids are here."

At this time, Su Peisheng's high-pitched voice came from outside the door.

"Understood." After the fourth master responded lightly, he said to Ruoyin calmly, "Since your brother is here, I will go to meet him. You should rest earlier."

"Yeah." Ruoyin nodded.

Before leaving, he leaned over and whispered in her ear: "I will come to see you some other day."

After hearing this, Ruoyin pulled off the quilt and covered her face.

Fourth master had a panoramic view of the little girl's playful appearance.

But he has always been cautious and critical, and strict with himself.

So, he flicked the hem of his robe and went out.

That night, Wuge and Fourth Master had a long talk all night.

The two big men were puzzled by the amorous feelings, and they left their own women behind at the same time.

The next morning, Nanny Liu helped Ruoyin change and wash.

"Fu Jin, the servant heard that the five grids are all in the front yard, and they chatted with the master all night."

"Tut tsk tsk, it's really good, what is it, you can chat all night, and I would have dozed off long ago." Qiaofeng really yawned as he said.

Seeing this, Grandma Liu reprimanded: "Men, of course the country is the most important thing. Being a master is like a slob like you."

"That's right." Qiaofeng was not necessarily annoyed by being compared to a slacker by Grandma Liu, but echoed her.

At this time, Qiao Lan who was on the side also said: "Finally, the fourth master promoted Wugedutong. At this time, he has made great achievements, so naturally he should share it with the fourth master. This is called loyalty."

"Qiaolan still understands." Ruoyin agreed.

It seems that last night it was her wife's benevolence that made a joke.

It's also thanks to fourth master not being as fussy as her.

Fortunately, Wu Ge persisted in his heart and was not misled by her, otherwise Wu Ge would almost be harmed.

In this dynasties striving for the top, not everyone loves more than the sky.

Especially the men of the princes and nobles, they shouldered the fate of the family and the royal family, and even the entire Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, even a man as infatuated as Wu Ge is for the country first, and then for the family.

Moreover, Wuge and Siye have a special relationship.

After all, it was fourth master who rescued him from the dire straits.

In addition to people like fourth master, the city is extremely deep.

If there are no rules in the five grids, it will appear that he has made military exploits and rehabilitated the Yao people, his tail will be raised and his wings will be stiff.

"By the way, master, Wugedu ordered people to send a lot of satin. I heard that it is Hunan embroidery. The embroidery on it is exquisite, much better than the embroiderer in our house." Qiaofeng said.

Ruoyin nodded, and said, "Xiang embroidery is one of the four famous embroideries in the Qing Dynasty. Of course, it is better than the embroiderer in the house."

"Isn't that right? Those satins are more colorful than cloth shops in the capital, and have a strong texture. Moreover, there are embroidered themes on both sides, which is really beautiful." Qiaolan explained.

Grandma Liu also echoed: "This old servant has lived so long, and I have never seen it embroidered on both sides. The key is that both sides are embroidered so beautifully."

"That's called double-sided embroidery, which is a characteristic of Hunan embroidery." Ruoyin stood in front of the dressing table, turned around, and said, "It seems that there are beautiful clothes this summer."

With such fine satin, the clothes must be very beautiful.

Just as Ruoyin was thinking about making new clothes, fourth master and Wu Ge had already gone to court in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

In the huge Hall of Supreme Harmony, Kangxi's hearty laughter sounded.

"Wuge, this time you went to the south to rehabilitate the Yao people, and handled the matter very well." He just wanted to see Wuge's true ability.

After this incident, Kangxi's view of Wuge changed a lot.

He is a person who cherishes talents. He is as courageous and resourceful as Wuge, so he should be rewarded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise." Wu Ge kowtowed.

"You can rehabilitate nearly 10,000 Yao people in such a difficult situation. It is really indispensable. I will make you a first-class loyal and brave uncle." Kangxi said.

"The servant kowtows to thank the emperor Long En." Wu Ge kowtowed again and again.

Every time it knocked, the floor of the Hall of Supreme Harmony made a muffled sound, shaking everyone's feet.

It is too real to say that the five grids are unified.

But... the title given by the emperor is also true.

In the Qing Dynasty, official titles and titles were two different things.

The official position of five ranks is already regarded as the top among the military officers, and it will not rise much if it is promoted.

Therefore, Kangxi was promoted to his title.

And the first-class loyal and brave uncle with five characters can be regarded as a kind of earl.

Earls are divided into three levels, first, second, and third.

Apparently, the first-class earl with five ranks has the highest status, and loyalty and bravery are his titles.

And above the earl is the marquis.

Above the Marquis, the highest duke.

But these are all things for later.

After a stick of incense, when the court was about to disperse, many officials hesitated to speak, nothing more than about the new crown prince.

But the prince was abolished, the elder brother was imprisoned, and the eighth master was dismissed.

After so much experience, the crown prince has not yet been elected.

Even if they had questions, they didn't dare to ask again, for fear of getting involved again.

However, Kangxi, the leader, took the initiative to bring up the old matter again.

"About re-electing the crown prince, what are your thoughts?"

It is said that princes and ministers watch their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses.

The princes were dealt with one by one, how dare they recommend them.

This didn't harm the prince, but also caused him to be implicated.

Seeing that no one dared to answer, fourth master took a step forward.

Said: "Huang Ama, my son thinks that the second elder brother behaved abnormally because of being cursed. I hope Huang Ama will give him another chance to restore the second brother as the prince."

Kangxi raised his eyebrows, waved his hands and said calmly: "Fourth, I know what you mean."

After the fourth master cupped his hands, he stepped aside.

However, at this moment, someone spoke right after fourth master.

"Your majesty, this servant thinks that the eighth elder brother is the most suitable." It was an old and hoarse voice who said this.

Everyone followed the prestige and saw an old man with gray beard and wrinkled face.

In a pair of experienced eyes, there was a shrewd gleam.

Looks like a crafty old fox.

I thought, isn't this Tong Guowei, the confidant of Ba Ye?

Anyone with a discerning eye now knows that Ba Ye was too eager to take over the position and was dismissed from the Baylor title. It is probably useless to become the crown prince.

What is his old fox's plan?

But no matter what idea he had, the first person to be implicated was designated as Eighth Master.

Sure enough, Kangxi's face sank.

"I think that the eighth elder brother only dismissed his Baylor title because of his meritorious service, but even without the Baylor title, he actually secretly colluded with his party members."

The eighth master didn't go to the court anymore, and he didn't care about everything in the court.

But there are still people in the imperial court who admire him and recommend him, obviously because they still have private contacts.

"Huang Ama Mingcha, the starlings have been dismissed, how could they collude with the party members." The fourteenth elder brother rushed out to speak for the eighth master.

"You bastard, you step back." Kangxi looked down at the princes and ministers below, and said: "The eighth elder brother colluded with the gangsters and refused to change after repeated admonitions. Now I order the guards to detain him within the high wall of the mansion. Without my permission, he is not allowed to do anything. In and out."

After hearing this imperial decree, no one dared to speak up for Ba Ye.

Even the bluffing fourteenth elder brother never contradicted Kangxi again.

The matter has come to this point, it is useless to say too much.

However, fortunately, it is not a lifelong confinement, otherwise it will be over.

Maybe after Huang Ama's anger dissipated, there was still room for maneuver, so he wouldn't provoke the old man.

Immediately afterwards, Kangxi got up and continued: "I know the matter of re-electing the crown prince, and I will definitely make a decision in ten days."

As soon as this remark came out, it caused an uproar in the court.

After all, Kangxi has always adopted a roundabout attitude towards the re-election of the crown prince.

Except for bluntly saying that the elder brother is not good, Kangxi did not express his attitude towards the rest of the elder brothers.

He didn't say yes, and he didn't say no, it was really unpredictable...

Not only that, but there is no definite statement.

But in Kangxi's words just now, it is no longer sloppy, but has the exact time.

This shows that ten days later, there must be a result in the re-election of the prince.

I just don't know which prince it is, who has that blessing.

"Yes, long live the emperor, long live, long live." The ministers kowtowed and sent Kangxi away.

A moment later, on the steps in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The fourteenth elder brother grabbed the old fox Tong Guowei and pointed at Tong Guowei's nose angrily.

Cursed: "Well, you Tong Guowei, the starling needs to keep a low profile this time, and you still recommend him. You made up your own mind about this matter without discussing it. I think you are old-fashioned."

Tong Guowei is an old fox, not only cunning, but also top-notch acting.

He stroked his beard and said in a difficult way: "To be a man, one has to stick to one thing. Since the servant has recommended Ba Ye from the beginning, he will stick to it to the end."

"You stubborn old man, how did you become a minister? You must have gone through the back door!" Elder Brother Ten also accused Tong Guowei.

"Okay, okay." Seeing the people around him cast strange glances, Master Jiu pulled his two younger brothers away.

Tong Guowei stood where he was and winked at Longkodo.

After Longkodo understood, he nodded slightly, and the two separated and went down.

At this time, Wuge was surrounded by everyone, congratulating one by one.

"Thank you all, I will definitely invite you to the house for a short talk some other day." He said a few perfunctory words, and quickly broke out from the crowd.

After leaving the Forbidden City, he didn't even bother to take the car.

Riding a brown horse directly, he hurried to the mansion of the fifth princess.

It's been a year or so since he saw the little girl he's been thinking about, and he has a sense of anticipation that he's returning to.

Because he rode fast, he arrived at the destination in only half a stick of incense.

At this time, he saw a group of people waiting at the entrance of the mansion from a distance.

The leader is a little woman wearing a silver and red flag dress.

After getting close, he tightened the reins and got off the horse neatly.

A pair of dark and deep eyes never left the silver-red shadow.

The boy walked up to the little woman, and said gently and apologetically, "I went to Fourth Brother's place last night, drank some wine with him, and chatted all night."

"I know, the slave has already told me." The fifth princess looked at the boy in front of her.

These days, she prayed day and night, hoping for his safe return.

He looked a little tanned than before, a healthy flaxen complexion.

The body is more robust than before leaving Beijing.

That delicately handsome cheek has not changed at all.

Even, it looks better.

With a straight nose and perfect curvature of his lips, he was holding a slight smile.
