Chapter 1965 Worry (asking for guaranteed monthly ticket)
The Fourth Prince works in the Ministry of Revenue, and the Thirteenth Prince works in the Ministry of Works, and both of them have to go to the yamen.
Seeing this, the Ninth Prince hurriedly said, "Then I'll go home first!"
The fourth prince was stunned and said, "Not going to the Lifanyuan?"
The Thirteenth Prince was also puzzled and said, "Yes, it's time to go to the government office. Are you still planning to take a rest? Be careful later, or your father will find out and scold you."
The Ninth Prince pointed to the sky and said, "It's almost lunchtime. What are you doing going to the Lifanyuan at this time? It's impolite. Go there tomorrow morning when the court opens..."
The Fourth Prince listened and felt that there was some truth in what he said.
The key point is that the Minister of the Lifanyuan may not be in the yamen all day.
After logging in in the morning, I may have to go do other chores.
Whenever the Ninth Prince went to the Lifanyuan, he would always greet the Minister of the Lifanyuan first, and then arrange for the duty room and staff.
Seeing that he stopped talking nonsense, the Ninth Prince got on the carriage.
When the brothers reached the intersection, they split into two groups.
The Ninth Prince went north, while the Fourth Prince and the Thirteenth Prince went south to the Six Ministries.
Thirteenth Prince said, "Ninth Brother is still the same. He will rest as long as he can."
The Fourth Prince was thinking about the Lifanyuan Yamen, whose current minister was Hayaltu, who was previously the Left Censor-in-Chief and Director-General of the Imperial Household Department.
Later, because of the Mongolian lawsuit, he was demoted five levels in the Zuodu Censorate, and later promoted to the Minister of the Lifanyuan.
However, he still served as the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department.
He is an old acquaintance of the Ninth Prince.
The Fourth Prince was relieved and said to the Thirteenth Prince, "The North Grand Canal will be repaired this winter, and the Ministry of Works will be busy."
The river channel repair must be avoided during the flood season and can only be started in autumn and winter.
However, some of the preparations in the early stages will not be easy.
The Thirteenth Prince said, "It's not just the North Grand Canal. The Zhengzhou section of the Yellow River hasn't been repaired for many years. The River Administration also wants to overhaul it."
In the early years, most of the money spent by the imperial court on river management was spent in the Huanghuai section of the lower reaches of the Yellow River.
Now that the downstream has been well managed, it is reasonable to move upwards.
The Fourth Prince let the matter go.
Now that they have cement, it is perfect for flood control. The Ministry of Revenue’s treasury is also full, and the River Administration wants to make great strides. It’s the perfect time and place.
The Ministry of Works will have to cooperate. If it is done well, it will also be the political achievement of the Thirteenth Prince.
On the contrary, the Thirteenth Prince looked at the Fourth Prince, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Fourth Brother, Fourteenth Brother is now working in the Ministry of Revenue."
Fourth elder brother: "..."
I forgot for a moment that I have this annoying younger brother.
The Thirteenth Prince grew up with the Fourteenth Prince, so he naturally knew the Fourteenth Prince's stubborn temper.
In his heart, he still favored the Fourth Prince and was afraid that the two brothers would have a dispute in the same yamen.
At that time, no matter who is right or wrong, most of the accountability will fall on the Fourth Prince.
Who calls him brother?
The Thirteenth Prince suggested, "Fourteenth brother is a donkey that goes with the flow, Fourth brother, why don't you praise him more."
The Fourth Prince frowned and said, "That will only make him more arrogant!"
Thirteenth Brother: "..."
Given Fourteenth Prince's temper, it would really be like this.
Seeing that the Thirteenth Prince was worried about him, the Fourth Prince said, "Just do your job well. I know how to treat him."
The two brothers were talking when they arrived at Qipan Street.
The Fourth Prince entered the Ministry of Revenue, and the Thirteenth Prince continued to go to the Ministry of Works.
The two ministries are very close to each other and are diagonally opposite each other.
When the Fourth Prince entered his duty room, he noticed something different.
There are a lot more things in the central hall.
There is one more banana tree and one more goldfish tank.
There is also a set of tea sets on the coffee table.
The Fourth Prince looked at this and felt very awkward.
Who has a banana tree in a pot?
Whose goldfish tank uses a painted tank?
And what about that feather duster?
And the tea set was actually colorful. It had been used but not cleaned or tidied up, and there was still half a bowl of tea.
Last year he shared the small hall with the Ninth Prince and did not find any inconvenience.
The Ninth Prince was also a tinkerer, but he only messed up his own west room.
The small hall in the middle will definitely not be in a mess like it is now.
This is the prince's duty room, who dares to move?
The Fourth Prince looked at the door curtain of the west room with a dark complexion.
In the west room, the Fourteenth Prince was looking at the files of the Eight Banners Bureau.
However, what he was concerned about was not the changes in private property, but the number of Gongzhongzuoling left in each banner.
According to the ranking of the older brothers, the twelfth prince would most likely follow the tenth prince and be under the Zhenghong Banner.
Then the Thirteenth Prince and he will be eliminated from the Zhenghong Banner.
Three princes have already resigned from the Bordered White Banner, so he and the Thirteenth Prince are most likely to be from the Bordered Blue Banner and the Plain Blue Banner.
It just so happens that there are still quite a few lieutenant commanders in the two blue flags.
Although the Fourteenth Prince knew that the day when they, the younger princes, would be granted titles might be delayed for a few years, it did not stop him from spying on the flag affairs first.
Hearing some noise at the door, the Fourteenth Prince looked up and saw the Fourth Prince coming in by lifting the curtain.
The Fourteenth Prince frowned and said angrily, "He is my own brother, but he changed the gift list without telling me!"
Fortunately, he was young, not yet married, and had no children, so he was not cheated like the Third Prince.
The Fourth Prince held back his anger and said, "You haven't even become a father yet, so what does it have to do with you if the emperor's grandson or granddaughter is given a name?"
The Fourteenth Prince argued, "That shouldn't be hidden from others. Humph, earlier everyone was talking about brotherly love and respect, but now that things are serious, why don't you think about 'brotherly love' anymore?"
Today, when presenting birthday gifts, everyone is stealing the limelight, making the little princes behind them seem like they don't exist.
The Fourth Prince was too lazy to argue with him, so he pointed to the central hall and said, "Put away all those messy things. This is the government office, not a place to live at home!"
The Fourteenth Prince was sitting there in a loud voice, but he stood up suddenly after hearing this and said, "I know you don't like me, so you start to find fault with me. How come it's a mess? Potted plants and goldfish are good for the eyes, and a feather duster is also indispensable!"
The Fourth Prince said patiently, "Then carry it into the room, don't put it in the hall."
The central hall is a place for talking and receiving guests, so it would be nice if it was simple and clear like in the past.
Fourteenth Prince crossed his arms, raised his chin and said, "Everything is arranged well in the hall, why do you have to move it into the room? There is only a tiny space in the room, and it will be crowded even if nothing is put in it!"
The Fourth Prince looked at the Fourteenth Prince with a dark face.
The Fourteenth Prince sneered and said, "As a brother, you can't be so overbearing. Half of this duty room is mine, so why should I make the decision about the central hall? At most, I can ask everyone to stay in the half facing the west room!"
The Fourth Prince glanced at him and turned to leave.
I really don't want to say a word.
I thought the Fourteenth Prince would make progress after growing up, but it turns out that he is still like this even when he is working in the ministries and departments.
The Fourteenth Prince looked at the Fourth Prince's back, his face no longer had the pride but was filled with gloom.
How is this what a brother does?
Without asking a single question about the job, he starts by finding fault with himself.
He could see that the brothers above him all had selfish motives.
From now on, you cheat me and I cheat you, and this may become the norm.
Just be secretive.
Just like today, the Third Prince did nothing and still fell into the trap.
Who would believe that the eldest prince didn't do it on purpose?
The Prince of Zhi's Mansion is next to the Prince of Cheng's Mansion, so there's still enough time to send someone over in the morning to let them know.
But the eldest prince, who always behaved like an elder brother, did not send anyone to Prince Cheng’s mansion...
*
Jiubele Mansion, main room.
The Ninth Prince had already changed into some half-new homely clothes, washed up simply, and then pulled Shushu into the study.
"Where are the recipes at home? The ones you gave to Seventh Sister-in-law and Old Tenth Lady a few years ago, help me pick them out and I'll copy one for Fifth Brother..."
The Seventh Lady had a sweet tooth. In her early years, she was always eating sweet buns, and she was quite plump.
Later, Shushu helped her sort out some recipes for losing weight.
The same thing happened to the Tenth Lady.
The Ninth Prince still remembers this.
The family recipes are in a book box on the bookshelf.
Shu Shu found him and said, "In addition to going to the palace, didn't you go to Prince Gong's mansion to pay respects? Prince Gong's illness is caused by obesity?"
The Ninth Prince nodded, then shook his head, and said, "I remember that Uncle Wang was of normal stature before he got sick, not very fat, but he had diabetes, his feet were rotten, and he had difficulty walking. I thought it was a disease of the rich, and nine out of ten people with this disease are obese, so I thought of the Fifth Prince!"
Shushu thought about the Fifth Prince in history. Among all the sons of Emperor Kangxi, he had a good end, but he did not live long and died before Concubine Yi.
Shushu picked out two cookbooks with some seriousness and said, "These two are for light diet, half are vegetarian and have no meat recipes, and one is a meat-only recipe..."
After hearing this, the Ninth Prince said, "Then I'll have everyone copy it, and then I'll let the Fifth Prince eat it with it."
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Master, please take care of the arrangements. Fifth brother has always loved me, so it is only natural for me to care about him more."
She didn't show it on her face, but her heart was heavy.
If you have difficulty walking, it means you are in the late stage of diabetic foot.
With such symptoms, there is no way to heal on your own. Antibiotics and debridement are required.
antibiotic……
Shushu felt bald.
This is too professional and is her blind spot in knowledge.
She has been reading medical books for so many years, and there are hundreds of medical books at home, but there is no trace of antibiotics.
As for the fiction, do you want to ask someone to give it a try?
But everything I do is under the eyes of others, so I can't make trouble out of nothing. I have to find a reasonable source.
Seeing Shushu's heavy face, the Ninth Prince said, "Maybe I am worrying too much. Fifth Brother is still young, it's okay..."
At this point, he paused and said, "As for Uncle Wang, the Imperial Court should have already looked at Uncle Wang's pulse case..."
If it was the early stage of diabetes like the Empress Dowager, it would not be so serious, and she could still abstain from food and take medicine to regulate it; but now that it has reached this stage, she can only endure it...
"No, I have to remind Old Ten that if you want to live happily ever after, you still have to take care of her wife..."
After the Ninth Prince worried about the Fifth Prince, he became worried about the Tenth Prince.
Being a widower is not easy.
Just look at the eldest prince and you will know.
Another thing is that the concubine's background is not as good as that of the original wife.
It's already unfair enough that the Tenth Prince is not favored by his father. If his family is not doing well, it would be too pitiful...
