Chapter 172

When Nanny Qi came to tell in a hurry that elder brother Jiu was coming to Yikun Palace, Yun Yi couldn't stay any longer, got up and ran outside, after running two steps, remembering that she hadn't greeted Concubine Yi yet, she again He stopped, saluted and greeted Concubine Yi, and then hurried out.

"Father!"

Finally seeing elder brother Jiu whose footsteps were a little swaying, Yun Yi's heart that had been straining all this time was completely relaxed.She didn't even need to ask, just by looking at Brother Jiu's face, she could tell that the matter was completely resolved, and there might be other good things.

"Fu Jin, why did you come out?"

When Brother Jiu saw Yun Yi, he said cheerfully, "Go, talk inside, we have to talk to Er Niang about this!"

"Oh!"

Yun Yi responded, and followed Brother Jiu into Yikun Palace.

Seeing Concubine Yi, Brother Nine bowed in a hurry.

Concubine Yi looked at the joyous Brother Jiu, frowned slightly, and said, "You have good news?"

"Mother Hui, son, you've been knighted!"

Brother Nine is very proud.

Knighted!

Although it is a matter of time before the prince can be knighted, it is quite enviable to be knighted alone.Generally speaking, the prince's elder brother's knighthood, to put it mildly, is all because of his meritorious service to the country.But in fact, in many cases, this so-called credit cannot withstand scrutiny.

For example, in the 37th year, Kangxi granted the title of Prince Elder Brother, and in the purpose of the title, all of them contributed to the country.But the so-called credit was all made by Kangxi's decals on his face.

Not to mention anything else, just put down the Galdan rebellion, Emperor Kangxi personally marched, most of the princes and elder brothers accompanied the army, and then, if they won, the princes and elder brothers all contributed.

Just tell me, how much gold does such a contribution really have?
But now, Brother Nine's knighthood is really different!

It is a joke to be knighted alone without any real credit.

Brother Jiu quickly told the whole story, and then looked at Concubine Yi as if waiting to be praised.

However, Concubine Yi has a troubled expression on her face.

There is no joy of Brother Nine's upcoming knighthood, but only a deep worry.

"Er Niang, is there something wrong with this?"

Brother Jiu saw Yifei's expression, and his heart skipped a beat, but what he couldn't figure out was that there was something wrong with this matter.

"pretty good!"

Concubine Yi sighed, "Emiang is also happy for you that you can become a knight so quickly. But this time, it's both a blessing and a curse. You have to be mentally prepared!"

"what……?!"

Brother Jiu's eyes are darkened, he will be knighted immediately, this is a real happy event, why come to my mother-in-law, this is a mixed blessing?

This kind of argument is very good, and it is not a disaster. Is it true?

"You can be knighted alone, Er Niang just say a little bit, will others be jealous?"

"Besides, the case this time involves Prince Gong's son Manduhu. So, is this the truth? Did you know that Manduhu was just thrown out by Prince Gong to abandon his pawn to protect the handsome man?"

"Also, as you said, many of the mansion's stewards went to Shuntian Mansion at that time. But, in the end of this case, only one Man Duhu was involved."

"Just for such a small amount of credit, your Empress Ama gave you a knighthood. Don't you think it's a little too easy? Is this knighthood so easy to get?"

After Yi Fei asked a series of questions, Brother Jiu stopped talking completely.The smugness in my heart was also extinguished.

Yun Yi didn't say anything, but Yi Fei's words made her think deeply.

"Emiang, if Manduhu is just a shield to end this case, then, do you think he is shielding Prince Gong or someone else?"

By clarifying this question, one can know what kind of trouble Brother Nine will face.

After all, Prince Gong was not very popular with Kangxi.If he wasn't one of Kangxi's few brothers, it would be a high incense to have the title of Beizi.

"The possibility of blocking arrows for Prince Gong is lower!"

Concubine Yi smiled slightly, "Of course, Er Niang is just guessing, it's really hard to say what the truth is."

"In short, in the future, you must be cautious in your words and deeds."

"What Erniang taught is that my son has memorized it!"

Although there is no definite statement, Brother Jiu has to admit that everything his mother said is very reasonable.

"Emiang, there is one more thing. If Huang Ama said that my son-in-law is going to leave the palace to open the house, I can discuss with you a time and report it to Huang Ama!"

"What do you think is the best time for your son to leave the palace?"

"You ask my mother this question?"

Concubine Yi glared at Brother Jiu angrily, "If it's according to Mother's wishes, Mother, it would be best to live in the palace for the rest of my life!"

"If you and Yun Yi go out of the palace, Eniang's palace will be deserted again!"

"Emiang, my servant will often come to the palace to greet you!"

Brother Nine quickly expressed his opinion to Concubine Yi.

Concubine Yi snorted, and said: "Forget it, Er Niang won't keep you anymore. As the saying goes, children can't help their mothers. If you keep not letting you out of the palace, you will probably blame Er Niang in your heart!"

"Emiang, you have wronged Erchen!"

Brother Jiu hurriedly replied, "If this son-in-law hadn't grown up, he wouldn't want to go out of the palace either!"

"Stop saying such sweet words to coax my mother!"

Concubine Yi glared at Elder Brother Jiu, "Okay, you can pick a good day for yourself and move out of the palace. Whether it's the Shengmen incident, Er Niang has nothing to do with it!"

……

Coming out of Yikun Palace, Brother Jiu and Yun Yi both had a slightly heavy expression on their faces.

Knighted!

Go out of the palace and open the house!
Double happiness.

But because this title was conferred alone, it is likely to attract people's jealousy and cause a lot of trouble for nothing. This is a rather unfortunate point in happy events.

The two walked back to elder brother's residence in silence, and when they entered the house, ninth elder brother hugged Yun Yi.

"Fu Jin, we are leaving the palace!"

Although Yifei said seriously, Brother Jiu was also in a heavy heart at the time.At that time, with a young heart, he turned his head and threw these troubles aside.

This person, you can't just do nothing just because you are afraid of trouble!
Besides, even if some people are jealous and envious, so what?
It is nothing more than soldiers coming to block it, and water coming to earth to cover it.

"Grandpa, let me go first!"

Compared with Brother Jiu's mood changes quickly, Yun Yi did not get out of these things so quickly.

"Is Fujin unhappy?"

Brother Jiu blinked and stared at Yun Yi, "Didn't you always want to leave the palace?"

Yun Yi smiled wryly, and said, "I want to leave the palace, but if leaving the palace means so much trouble, we might as well live in the palace."

"Fu Jin, what are you talking about as a child?"

Brother Jiu was amused by Yun Yi's words.

"The matter this time was Huang Ama's idea. I didn't ask for the knighthood, but Huang Ama promised it before. But, I didn't expect that this matter would involve Prince Gong's residence."

"That's not it!"

Yun Yi sighed, "Prince Gong is actually not a problem. What I am worried about is that Prince Gong's mansion is not the only one behind this matter."

The lottery was made by fellow travelers.

Since this person can get on the way of Prince Gong's mansion, it's hard to guarantee that he won't get on another way.

"Master, I think you should look up Man Duhu's relationship." Yun Yi's eyes suddenly brightened.

circle!

In the later generations, the second-generation ancestors often mixed with the second-generation ancestors to play.Then, if the lottery matter was really done by several people, and Manduhu was one of them, then the people involved must be those who are close to Manduhu on weekdays.

Follow the vines to find the melons, as long as you catch one melon, you can find a vine of melons.

"Makes sense!"

Brother Jiu didn't even need Yun Yi to explain, he understood why he did this.

"Fu Jin, tell me, if you really find out something, do you want to tell Huang Ama?"

"Of course not!"

Yun Yi gave Brother Jiu a look of "Are you an idiot?" This matter is over now.Regardless of whether Kangxi knew there was something hidden in the matter, but on the bright side, this matter was over.

Now that it's over, even if something is discovered, it shouldn't be made public.Because once it is put on the bright side, it means a declaration of war.

Moreover, if the matter is really as Yun Yi guessed, then if these people want to take revenge on Brother Jiu, they have to weigh whether they can bear the consequences of Brother Jiu uncovering the matter again.

"Fu Jin is so right!"

Brother Nine laughed, "Well, let's discuss the time to leave the palace!"

"This, it's up to you to make up your mind!"

Time to leave the palace?
Yun Yi naturally hopes that the sooner the better, but this matter still has to be decided by Brother Jiu.Whether the time is sooner or later, it's all Brother Jiu's idea.If it's too early, if Concubine Yi doesn't like it, it's also Brother Jiu's problem, and it has nothing to do with Yun Yi.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is very particular.

Yun Yi and Concubine Yi are getting along fairly well now, but this harmony has not reached the level of being a mother and daughter.Therefore, Yun Yi still has to be cautious when facing Concubine Yi.

"Then Fujin, do you want to leave the palace earlier or later?"

"..."

Hearing brother Jiu's nonsense question, Yun Yi really wanted to beat him up.

Does she want to leave the palace, whether she wants to leave the palace earlier or later, is this something that needs to be asked?

Brother Jiu couldn't help laughing when he saw that Yun Yi didn't say anything, and said, "Fu Jin, isn't it kind of you to be like this? You're afraid that Erniang will blame you, so it's too unkind to push everything to the Lord, isn't it?"

"So, do you want to make up your mind?"

Yun Yi also smiled when Brother Nine suddenly revealed what he was thinking in his heart.

Brother Jiu shrugged and said, "What do you think?"

"..."

Yun Yi simply turned her head away, not wanting to talk to Brother Nine anymore.

However, in the face of the shameless and skinless Brother Jiu, Yun Yi's ignorance was completely useless.

……

One night passed, and in the morning of the second day, Brother Jiu went to court refreshed.

Then in the court hall, Liang Jiugong personally read out the imperial decree of Kangxi, Jiu elder brother made contributions to the country, divided the Gushan shellfish, and chose the sun to go out of the palace to open the mansion.

As soon as the decree came out, there was a complete silence in the hall.

The eighth elder brother and others who were standing with the ninth elder brother were briefly surprised, and congratulated the ninth elder brother one after another.

Brother Jiu accepted these congratulations indifferently, and said that after he left the palace, he would have a banquet in the mansion.

However, when everyone was congratulating, Brother Jiu also saw jealousy in the eyes of many people.As for Prince Gong, looking at Brother Jiu's eyes, he was very cold.

Brother Nine's contribution was obtained in exchange for Prince Gong's son.

When the court meeting dispersed, Brother Jiu was stopped by Prince Gong.

"Ninth elder brother!"

"Nine beauties!"

Prince Gong stopped Brother Jiu with an unusually cold expression on his face.

"I met Uncle Chang Ning!"

Although Brother Nine saw Prince Gong's displeasure, as a junior, he still had to abide by etiquette.

"You also know that this king is your uncle?"

Prince Gong looked at Brother Jiu angrily, "Then you can remember, Man Duhu, he is your cousin!"

"Uncle, if you want to say this, please forgive Yinzhen for not agreeing. Man Duhu is indeed Yinzhen's cousin, but did I force him to do what he did?"

"Presiding over the scam, defrauding the common people of money, how short of money is he for that little money?"

"Things are exposed, and they still want to kill people to silence them!"

"In the end, he actually wanted someone to set fire to the prison in Shuntian Mansion!"

"Uncle, nephew would like to ask you what these things mean, you don't understand?"

do not know?

How could Prince Gong not understand?

However, the one who was expelled from the family and sent to Ningguta was his son who had once placed high hopes on him.

He understands the truth, but emotionally, he can't accept it.

"Yinzhen, this king knows that what he did is wrong. But since you have found out that something is wrong, you can come to this king, as long as you say hello to this king first, why is this?"

From Prince Gong's point of view, as long as brother Jiu greeted him first, things would be different.

He was indeed unaware of what Man Duhu did.If he knew, he would not wait until this step, but would directly clean up Manduhu.Lack of money?Although his Prince Gong's mansion is not first-class, it is definitely not short of money.

What Prince Gong couldn't accept the most was that Manduhu didn't tell him why he wanted so much money until the matter was revealed!

His dignified Prince He Shuo's son was actually planted for a little money, expelled from the family, and sent off. To Prince Gong, this was really unacceptable.

"Uncle Chang Ning, actually, I have a question. My nephew wants to ask you, what exactly does Manduhu want money for? Is he really the only one in charge of this scam?"

Brother Nine asked the question very calmly.

Prince Gong was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Brother Jiu, and said, "You mean, Man Duhu didn't do this by himself?"

"Nephew doesn't know!"

Brother Jiu waved his hand, "My nephew is really not sure about this! But, is Manduhu really someone who needs money? What did he do for money, does uncle know?"
