Chapter 252: The Order

Although the Thirteenth Prince smiled, he was covered with a thorn in his body and was filled with an indescribable sadness. Cao Yong frowned slightly. Even if the physical disease could be cured, what about the gloom of his mental state? If he was so depressed, could he avoid the fate of his illness in his prime?

When the Thirteenth Prince saw him, he looked a little surprised and asked, "What? The people from the Ministry of Revenue have stumbled on you and would not send a receipt? No, if someone else was leaving, it would be said that someone would leave for tea and cold. Do you have the Chunping Mansion here?"

Where is this and where, but since the Thirteenth Prince knows these, it seems that he is not a treacherous person, so why can't he understand it? But he can't blame him for being discouraged. The royal affairs are still different from those outside. Father and son may not be father and son, and brothers may not be brothers, so it is difficult to count on others.

Besides, as a prince, he also has his own pride. If he lets him rely on any brother, it would be a humiliation for him? As for the cold-faced fourth prince, the love between the two brothers... Cao Yong was just a bystander, and he could not guess whether it was true love or something else.

The truth doesn't matter, as long as everyone is safe in the end. Cao Yong thought of this and felt a little ridiculous. It was really boring that a famous brother in history worries about this.

However, he is unwilling to say more about the capital now, otherwise anyone who knows what is wrong and is listened to by those with a heart will be "resentful" or something.

Therefore, after hearing the Thirteenth Prince's question, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It has nothing to do with the errands. He is just thinking about the rules of becoming an official just now. He is just a little touched! My uncle died of illness, his family was old, and his brothers were still young, so he was a little worried! They all said, "Loyalty and filial piety are hard to achieve." Alas, now I understand the taste of it!"

The Thirteenth Prince nodded and listened, but at the last sentence, his face changed. After years of neglect and neglect, he thought that it was because he offended the crown prince and made the emperor's father angry, and he was always complaining. As a prince, even if the crown prince is noble, it would not be like this.

After hearing Cao Yong's nagging, the Thirteenth Prince woke up as if he was dreaming, and finally knew where he was wrong. He did something private and had a bad intention to be a minister to the crown prince chosen by the emperor's father, which was for "disloyalty"; the eighteenth Prince died young and the emperor's father was sad and sick, but he... was for "unfilial".

I only thought about the emperor's father's doting and cold treatment, but never thought about what I should do.

The prince who has always been the most favored person has become a "unfaithful and unfilial" person. The disappointment in the emperor's father's heart can be imagined.

Cao Yong still said to himself: "Long lively, I am the most generous. As long as I keep a 'loyalty', not to mention being in Shandong, even if I go to Guangdong, Guangxi or Yunnan and Guizhou, I am not afraid of villains' slander. In fact, thinking about it, I am worry-free now. Although Shandong is a little remote, it has ended up in purity!" At this point, I stopped talking. There is no need to say too clearly. Whether you can think clearly depends on the Thirteenth Prince himself.

The Thirteenth Prince was stunned and couldn't speak for a while. When he woke up, he looked at Cao Yong with a little surprise. Seeing that he seemed to be complaining, he was drinking tea with a tea bowl. He smiled and said, "Xiao Cao, are these words for me?"

Cao Yong looked puzzled and asked, "'These words'? What are the words of Thirteenth Master?"

The Thirteenth Prince looked at him carefully, not knowing whether he was intentional or intentional. In any case, he was a little grateful after all.

"Dingdengdengdeng", with the sound of slightly rapid footsteps, the manager Zhang Fuyuan came to report that the imperial decree came to the palace and asked the master to prepare to accept the imperial decree.

After hearing this, the Thirteenth Prince stood up from the seat with a "scarlet" sound. He was already trembling with excitement. He repeatedly said to himself: "People from the palace are coming! People from the palace are coming!"

Cao Yong looked at the silver threads in his braid and the water light flashing in the corners of his eyes, and felt his nose also sore.

"Go and get my python robe! Go and set up the incense table!" The Thirteenth Prince said loudly, with a little disbelief on his face.

After the people below responded, the thirteenth prince noticed Cao Yong who had also stood up at some point. He smiled a little embarrassedly on his face and said, "This... this is really too unexpected... I'm a little neglected by Cao Cao for a while..."

The incense table will be set up in the hall here soon, and the eunuch from the court will also be taken here. Cao Yong knew that he should avoid it and said with a smile: "You are polite, since the angel is here, then you can do it first, Cao Yong will say goodbye first!"

When the Thirteenth Prince heard that he was leaving, he waved his hand and said, "It's just a matter of dealing with it. It's all right for a while. What's the matter in a hurry to leave? I have something to talk to you here. If you don't mind being slow, you can go to the side hall to have a cup of tea. Let's talk later when I finish dealing with it!"

Seeing that the Thirteenth Prince was speaking earnestly and was unwilling to discourage his interest, Cao Yong responded with a smile and went to the side hall to serve tea with the manager. He also thought in his heart that he could not guess what kind of decree Kangxi would have.

After abolishing the prince, the Thirteenth Prince was also "refrigerated" for more than four years. Even the punishment for him to intervene in the battle for the throne back then should be almost the same.

Besides, the murder of the city gate during the epidemic last year was not a great contribution, but it also contributed to the country and the court. Although it was one and a half years late, it was reasonable to give some rewards.

Is it a title or a money or a grain? No matter what the Thirteenth Prince is, it is Cao Yong. He was happy for him when he thought that his situation might turn around.

The lowest was Gushan Bazi, with an annual salary of 1,300 taels of silver and 1,300 hu of rice. Cao Yong was relieved. Although he had a title, there were not much money. However, as long as the Thirteenth Prince got out of his current situation, he would offer silver and money everywhere and give it to the village.

It turned out that Cao Yong was still worried that after paying off the "debt" of the Thirteenth Prince's side in two years, the Thirteenth Prince might not believe the saying "profits and profits". If the situation improves now, he will not let him make up lies.

However, I felt something was wrong. During the Kangxi period, all the princes were enfeoffed in batches. There was no single prince. It was the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth princes who followed him to be awarded the title? But I didn’t hear anything before?

About a quarter of an hour later, the manager Zhang Fuyuan came to the side hall, but his face was not very happy, and said with a wry smile: "Master Cao, Master Cao feels a little uncomfortable, so he went back to the inner courtyard to rest. Send the servant to see Master Cao over and ask Master Cao not to blame!"

Cao Yong was very surprised. He knew that Zhang Fuyuan was a confidant from the Thirteenth Mansion, so he did not politely ask him and asked directly what he was confused about: "But the will..."

Zhang Fuyuan nodded and replied: "It was the Queen Mother's decree that he pointed out the two concubines to our master!"

Referring to marriage! This is really too unexpected to Cao Yong, but this should be a good thing. Why is the Thirteenth Prince even impatient to meet guests? He wouldn't have been too happy or afraid that the legitimate wife would be jealous, so he went to the inner house to coax him quickly?

Zhang Fuyuan is not a talkative person, but he knew that Cao Yong had always been respectful and kind to his master. Seeing that he was full of confusion, he whispered: "When I first heard this, I thought it was a good thing, but the master's face was not very good. I asked the father-in-law if there was an imperial edict at the Ding Family Jing's mansion. As a result, I knew that there was an edict over there, and I also pointed to two beautiful girls who had left the sign. My face looked a little ugly. After ordering me to come and see Master Cao, I went back to the inner courtyard!"

The Grand Prince's Mansion of Ding Family Jing was the earlier Zhijun Prince's Mansion, the residence of the eldest son Yinzhi. In the 47th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, after the deposed prince, the Grand Prince was defeated and banned in the original mansion for the sake of the crown prince.

This once prominent eldest son gradually faded out of the sight of the powerful and powerful in the capital. When he mentioned it occasionally, he just laughed at his "dragon and tiger spirit". Although he had been involved in the past few years, this little prince and little princess have been adding more than a young man.

If it were other princes' mansions, it would be a good thing to add these princely grandchildren, but if you were born in the aborted prince's mansion guarded by heavy troops, even if you live to adulthood, you would be just an idle royal family. What kind of blessing would it be?

The young Kangxi was quite kind to his eldest son. Whether it was the three-year general election for the women's show or the annual female election for the women's house in the Interior Affairs Office, he would send a few people there.

The Thirteenth Prince now seems to be treated the same as the eldest Prince. I wonder how disappointed and angry he should be at this moment.

After leaving the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, Cao Yong was in a heavy mood. He said those words indirectly, but he still hoped to help the Thirteenth Prince's Man's so that he could feel more open and not be hurt by the gloom. Who would have thought that this would come again?

Mr. Kangxi, why did you say that? After all, he is a biological child. Even if he is angry and dislikes him, he can just be cold on the side. Why bother to do this again?

Although the Thirteenth Prince rarely left the palace in the past two years, after all, there was no order to ban the circle. Some people dared to neglect them, and they still had to worry about it after all.

Now, this refers to the decree of the concubine. Not to mention that the Thirteenth Prince himself thinks about the eldest prince; even if the others contact the two of them, there must be a few. In the future, it is impossible to say that the situation here will become more and more difficult.

What is unpredictable is the emperor's heart!

When the cold wind blew, Cao Yong shivered, tightened his clothes, and urged his horse to go to the Prince of Ping's Mansion. He originally wanted to stay in the capital to see if he could find a chance to get Cao Yin back to the capital, but now he didn't think about it.

Kangxi was already old, and he was uneasy, and his suspicion became increasingly serious. He was a little mean and a bit sinister, and his behavior was very different from the past. When it happened, he would either take your life directly; even if he left one life, he might not be able to do so.

Whether it is an "old child" or a "menopausal period", from what he saw and heard after entering Beijing, Cao Yong could no longer see the constitution of Kangxi's actions. He only felt that he was a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, as if he was to eliminate his own uneasiness.
