MTL - Female Official In the East Palace-Chapter 165

Beijing has banner people fighting in the street, and taught the third elder brother Yinzhi and the eighth elder brother Yinsi to meet, they will definitely report to the palace soon, so Rong Xin did not bring Dongzhu with him After staying in the mansion of the third elder brother for a long time, he returned to the palace about an hour earlier than usual.

Prince Yinren and Crown Princess Guerjia had been informed that they were waiting in Yuqing Palace. As soon as they saw the two returning, they immediately greeted them and saw the hand in Dongzhu's hand at a glance. pistol.

"Auntie, this is..."

Rong Xin put Dongzhu in the arms of the Crown Princess, and said calmly, "I saw that Grid's opponent was interested, so I unloaded the bullet for her to play with."

The Crown Princess could not agree with the fact that "handguns can be played", but looking at Dongzhu's focused eyes, she could not say anything against it.

The prince also noticed the difference in his daughter, "Auntie, did Dongzhu take the initiative to show her liking?"

Rong Xin nodded and described the situation to the two of them.

So self-pity?"

Rong Xin comforted the Crown Princess a few words.

She was also angry at that time, but it was not because of singing and other issues. After all, when the world was bad, women could not tolerate self-esteem and self-love, and today's world is not for ordinary people. how nice.

Prince Concubine knew that her daughter was not hurt and her anger was not too big, so she quickly subsided, and said with a smile: "Before Dongzhu liked those mortise and tenon objects, and now she likes it again. Handgun, if I hadn't watched her grow up, I would have raised the wrong child."

The princess's casual remarks are in response to the different requirements of the world for men and women.

In the concept of ordinary people, only men like this kind of things. Most of the women in the world are famous for playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

The daughters of most common families don’t even have the opportunity to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. They can only manage the housework day after day and have children.

But Dongzhu is the eldest daughter of the crown prince. With such a rare opportunity, Rong Xin does not want her to grow up according to the vulgar views of the world and eventually live with the flow.

Pampering should teach her to do what she wants.

So, Rong Xin smiled disapprovingly and said: "What's the harm in liking handguns? It's not something that can't be played. In the future, when the grid is bigger, I will take her to the eldest brother's village. Get acquainted."

At this time, the prince glanced at the handgun in his daughter's hand again, and said to Rong Xin: "Dongzhu took aunt's self-defense, and I'll ask the eldest brother to give you one."

"The gun you gave me earlier is still there..."

The prince raised his fan and shook it from side to side, and said with a smile, "Big brother left and right is willing to give it to you, how can we have a relationship with him?"

Rong Xin saw through his smile and asked, "Isn't it because you don't have to spend money?"

The prince did not refute, he turned his head and asked the princess to take Dongzhu back to the backyard first, and then said to Rong Xin: "Brother took my 10,000 taels of silver, let's take some gadgets from him , is also a courtesy exchange."

What a gift exchange, it is so fresh and refined to take advantage of it, worthy of being a prince.

Rong Xin laughed, thinking of Juming Teahouse, and asked, "Can I go to your study and ask you to solve my doubts?"

"Of course, aunt please."

The two moved to the prince's study, Rong Xin did not hesitate, and said directly: "Today, the third brother invited the eighth brother and I to a teahouse called Juming Teafang. , It is said that it is the property of the king of Xijun, but his character is not like a person with good elegance."

When the prince heard the words "Juming Teahouse", he raised his eyebrows slightly, and when she finished speaking, she immediately nodded and said: "This teahouse is nominally dominated by Jingxi, but in reality It really belongs to me."

Rong Xin had already guessed it when he was in the tea house. At this time, when he heard the words of the prince, he asked again: "Which one is Qian Juren?"

"This person is a descendant of Wu Yue's Qian clan. He went to Beijing to study with several Jiangsu students three years ago."

Wuyue Qian's family is also a famous family in Jiangnan, Rong Xin is both proud and helpless, "You are really blatant, in case the emperor knows..."

"Emperor Ama tacitly allows the princes to find some ways to make money."

However, there are a lot of scholars in the teahouse of Prince Prince, and if you look at the paintings and calligraphy on the lobby wall, you can see that there are famous people in Toshilin who come and go, I am afraid it is difficult not to teach people to think more.

More...

Rong Xin tapped the tea bowl twice with his finger, "The emperor tacitly agreed that you and the eldest brother were on business to get some oil and water from it, right?"

Difficulty in communication.

The prince received the books presented by the officials of the DPRK, and it was regarded as filial piety.

However, the prince did not face the problem directly, but changed the subject: "Today, the children of the Eight Banners were fighting in the street. After the nine-door admiral reported to the Qianqing Palace, Huang Ama was very angry."

Rong Xin knew that the prince had made up his mind, so he had to follow his words: "Only the third brother and the eighth brother got off the carriage, so I don't know the specific situation, only know if the teahouse is destroyed or not. There are few things, and a few innocent people have been hurt."

"The two sides in the fight are the idle bannermen of the Eight Banners. If they have nothing to do, they will cause trouble. Today, I happened to teach you to meet Yinzhi and Yinsi. Otherwise, they will definitely settle down afterwards."

"Now that the emperor has learned about it, he shouldn't let it go, right?"

The prince frowned and sighed: "This is extremely difficult."

It is difficult to get an imperial examination, so there are many people who are bright on the outside and poor on the inside.

What's more, there is no guarantee of livelihood.

Rong Xin listened to the prince's words, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What do you care about?"

The prince shook his head, "This matter happened suddenly, Yinren has no idea for now, and the new law is the key time, I am temporarily at a loss."

In this case, Rong Xin can only know the result of today's events after Kangxi's disposal will is issued.

The prince put aside this matter for the time being, and asked with a smile: "Yinsi is invited to leave the palace for the first time today, must be very happy?"

Rong Xin nodded, and then talked about the attitude of the eighth brother when he encountered this pair of siblings, and said: "the eighth brother is quite thorough in dealing with people and matters."

The prince looked at the void and disagreed: "Xu is young, has few affairs, and is a little soft."

"I don't think so." Rong Xin retorted, "You don't stick to one pattern, and the eighth brother is like this, which is suitable for matching with others and singing a white face."

The prince heard the words and said with a smile: "I think it's the aunt who is eclectic."

Rong Xin is really not like an ordinary person, she will divide people into three, six, nine, etc., and then teach the prince with the faction of the enemy and us, so the prince is now boldly using his brothers, and he is indeed tolerant Xin's influence.

Prince didn't think it was bad either.

"Yinsi wanted to go to the academy to study, although I rejected him after opening his mouth, but after seeing him diligently and diligently, I made it clear to Huang Ama."

"So today the emperor agreed to my eighth brother to leave the palace, in fact, to allow my eighth brother to enter the Renzhao Academy?"

The prince nodded and said, "Exactly."

Rong Xin unconsciously rubbed his forehead, "Entering the academy is not a bad thing, only the third elder brother set a precedent, now the eighth elder brother has a wish, and other elder elder brothers will do the same in the future. Heart, isn't it still asking you?"

The prince said very broad: "If they are knowledgeable enough to enter, what reason do I have to hinder me as a brother?"

Rong Xin is not unwilling that the prince loves his younger brothers, but is a little worried, "You are bothering to establish the academy, it is for the students of the world, the princes entering the academy may affect the students of the academy to study."

Wouldn't this go against the original intention of the prince?

The prince wants to create more opportunities for ordinary scholars to contact the great Confucian scholars, but scholars say that they should have no distractions. Will it change sex?

As long as there is one, the promising student who had a good future went the wrong way, and it is not what he hoped to see.

So Rong Xin said again: "It's okay to enter the academy, the eighth brother is for studying, not for the imperial examination, and he can completely hide his identity and enter the school, what does the prince think?"

"It's also a solution, but it only requires the consent of Huang Ama."

After hearing this, Rong Xin suggested: "Eighth brother has also reached the age of marriage, it's time to take care of it, you tell him about this matter, and then Eighth elder brother will ask the emperor himself. "

The prince thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

On the second day, Rong Xin deliberately did not take Dongzhu out of the palace, and then stared at her with good eyes.

Prince Concubine also put aside the palace affairs for a while, and observed Dongzhu with Rong Xin. Seeing that she did not look out like the previous time, she knew that this gun was really very popular with Dongzhu. The people and things around are incomparable.

Then, Rong Xin said to the prince in private: "When you ask the elder brother for a handgun for me, can you ask him for some discarded handguns?"

As for other cold weapons, Rong Xin has never thought about it. After all, since the first emperor's enlightenment, there have been all kinds of miniature wooden weapons, and Dongzhu has never paid attention to it.

The prince agreed to his daughter for the sake of his daughter. When he met the eldest brother, he said his request.

The eldest brother did not indicate whether he could or not, but said: "It just so happens that I have something to tell you. After the court, I will go to your palace."

After he finished saying this, he hurriedly stood elsewhere, the prince did not know why, and had an ominous premonition.

After facing down, the eldest brother immediately walked to the prince and urged him to return to the Yuqing Palace.

Both of them ignored it and went back to Yuqing Palace. After the prince asked the **** to serve tea, he asked, "Big brother is looking for me, but something?"

The eldest brother withdrew his gaze from the prince's bogu frame and said bluntly: "Dai Zi has built a new cannon. After several tests, he found that its power far exceeds the current cannon in the army."

"Really?!"

"Don't be too happy, this cannon is too bulky, even if it is made into a cannon car, the marching speed is extremely slow."

"I haven't reported it yet." After the elder brother finished speaking, when he looked up and saw the prince's expression, he immediately stared, "Did you forget to tell me?!"

His expression was quite like if the prince forgot the answer, he would have to stop with the prince.

The prince paused for a moment, and then he only cared about joy. He almost forgot what he had said to the elder brother, and then said calmly: "I haven't forgotten, what price is the elder brother going to sell to the imperial court?"

Big brother didn't forget to hear him, leaned back on the Taishi chair, and slowly spit out a number: "One hundred thousand taels."

Prince: "…"

The atmosphere was stagnant.

The big brother frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "What? You think the cannon I spent countless money making is not worth the price?"

The prince was still in a state of distrust of his ears, and reconfirmed: "What did the elder brother say, one hundred thousand taels of silver?"

The big brother said, "Of course."

The prince held his forehead, "Big brother is swallowing an elephant with a snake..."

The elder brother heard him say this, and immediately distinguished: "Do you know what role a powerful cannon can play in a war? If I have dozens of them in Qing Dynasty, it may even be possible In an instant, the situation of the battle is left and right."

"That's it..." The prince said helplessly, "Why didn't the eldest brother directly discuss with Huang Ama and the Ministry of Industry?"

Supply Dai Zi to continue research and development?"

Of course, the prince knew that it would cost a lot to build a cannon, but the elder brother would ask for 100,000 taels, and Huang Ama would agree, which is simply a fantasy.

"Big Brother." This is the first time that the Prince spoke softly in front of Big Brother, "Why don't you think about it again, this number is too much."

Big Brother shook his head firmly, "It can only be 100,000 taels, if there is one word missing, I need you to fill it up for me."

"Am I going to **** it?" The prince stood up abruptly, took two steps back and forth, then pointed to his bogu frame, and said, "I just saw the eldest brother and seemed to be interested, what did I see? Take it away, but this matter is definitely not my ability, big brother can change his mind or solve it by himself, there is no other way."

"Who wants that from you?" The elder brother looked at the prince suspiciously, "Really?"

The prince nodded, "But it doesn't work."

The big brother gave him a few more glances, pointed at the country, and said: "In private business, you have to start with a high price and then negotiate, how can you fall to a low point in the first place? "

The prince looked back and said, "That eldest brother just looked so determined..."

"Pinch your posture."

Prince Fang was a little confused when he taught the 100,000 taels to fight, but at this time, he became more and more enlightened, "So, eldest brother thinks that if the emperor does not agree, I will make it up. guest?"

"That's right." The elder brother said proudly, "You can make peace in it, and then I will reluctantly reduce the number, and it will be much easier to achieve the goal."

The prince was hesitant about this seemingly perfect plan, but the eldest brother left without saying a word. The next day, he entered the Qianqing Palace and talked with the emperor Amami. for a long time.

Rong Xin has learned about the big brother from the prince's mouth. Seeing that the prince seems to be busy with business, in fact, his mind has been falling out of the window from time to time, so he went out and told people to keep an eye on the big brother Brother's movement.

And the two waited for another quarter of an hour or so, the little **** came to report, the elder brother came out of Qianqing Palace and went straight to Yuqing Palace, presumably it took less than a cup of tea to arrive .

The prince heard the words, put down the book, and waited for a while, and sure enough, the elder brother entered the Yuqing Palace and went straight to his study.

Rong Xin looked at the elder brother with a dark face and felt wrong, so he asked the **** to make tea, and then followed the elder brother's footsteps into the study.

"Big brother..." The prince opened his mouth, but just called out, he saw the big brother parked in front of the Bogu shelf, and said to Rong Xin, "Auntie helped me pack all these, the prince promised to send give me."

Rong Xin was slightly surprised, turned to the prince, and asked with a question in his eyes.

The prince was also puzzled, and asked, "What is the meaning of this, eldest brother?"

"What do I mean?" The elder brother said blankly, "Do you know what happened to me in the Qianqing Palace?"

"Isn't eldest brother talking with Huang Ama about selling cannons? What? It's not as eldest brother expected?" The prince could only think of this.

The eldest brother twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled strangely: "It went well, how could it not go well, it's too smooth!"

However, his attitude is obviously lying.

Rong Xin stretched out his hand and gently pulled the eldest brother twice, and when he sat down, Fang asked: "What happened, you said to listen to us, the emperor did not agree with what you said. number?"

"No, Emma agreed." The elder brother looked sullen.

Rong Xin and the Crown Prince looked at each other and asked, "Isn't this a good thing? Why do you look like this?"

The eldest brother picked up the tea bowl on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and then let out a long sigh and said: "Huang Ama did agree, and it was extremely refreshing, and even praised me. ."

"That's a good thing."

The big brother looked at them as if to say that they were naive, "When you hear the next content, you won't think so..."

How could anyone be so rude, Rong Xin gently pushed him on his arm, "Speak quickly."

"Huang Ama said, credit, the next emperor will pay."

The prince's expression was blank for a moment.

The eldest brother walked back to the Bogu frame again, and said to Rong Xin, "Auntie help me put it on, and I will take it away when I leave the palace."

Rong Xin clenched the bead tightly, but she couldn't stop laughing in front of the prince. As for the elder brother, she could only reply "Oh".
