Chapter 559 Emperor Kangxi: The fourth year old is still young...
"Hey, isn't this how all women survive? The prince is still good. He comes to our yard every day and has enough food and drink. If you meet a heartless person, that would be miserable." said Nanny Song.
"Hawthorn girl, Hawthorn girl!"
Just when they were feeling sentimental, they suddenly saw the silent man walking into the yard with a mouthful of white teeth grinning.
Noticing that several people were looking at him, he scratched his head a bit embarrassedly, then took out a bag of chestnuts from his arms: "Ms. Hawthorn, I have some free time today, so I bought a bag of chestnuts... Don't you like chestnuts? Here you go..."
Shanzha looked at him quietly, then glanced at the chestnut in his hand. Suddenly, she sneered, "Oh, men, none of them are good."
Bu Yu was stunned by the scolding: "...Ah?"
Yesterday, she was calling me Brother Buyu sweetly and said she wanted to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts. But today, I put aside many things to go buy her. What happened?
"What are you talking about? Are you being wronged? Are the top beam crooked and the bottom beam crooked? Tell me! How many girls have you bought chestnuts for?"
Without saying anything, he immediately explained anxiously: "No..."
"Stop talking, I don't want to listen! Goodbye!" As she spoke, Hawthorn slammed her own door shut.
Without saying a word: "...this...what happened?"
Liusu and Nanny Song exchanged a tentative glance, and finally Nanny Song said, "Miss Shanzha is in a bad mood today. Master Buyu should come back another day."
Buyu's brows were twisted into a knot, and he secretly repeated everything Shanzha had just said in his mind.
The upper beam is crooked...the lower beam is crooked?
Buy chestnuts for the girl next to you?
Although Buyu was a rough man, he had been helping his master with errands for years, and now he was quite good at understanding information. In the end, he came to a conclusion, which was...
My brother bought chestnuts for several girls and got himself into trouble!
He immediately sat down at the door with his fists clenched. "My eldest brother has followed the master into the palace. I'll wait for him to come back. I have to ask him some questions!"
Palace of Heavenly Purity.
The Fourth Master glanced at the sky, clasped his fists, and said, "Father, it's getting late. I should go home."
Emperor Kangxi frowned. "Your mind is completely focused on returning home! I'm asking you, did you hear clearly what Lord Guarjia just said?"
The Fourth Master was stunned and asked, "What did Lord Guarjia just say?"
Lord Guaerjia was stunned when he heard this, and immediately stepped forward and clasped his fists, saying, "Your Highness, I am talking about my daughter's marriage. She is old this year and has reached the age to get married..."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on the Fourth Master's face and she carefully observed his expression.
The Fourth Master nodded upon hearing this: "Now that I'm old enough, it's time to talk about it."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lord Guaerjia's cloudy eyes brightened a little. Ruyu had waited until today, and finally her wish came true.
He smiled and said, "Prince, you mean..."
The Fourth Master said, "Your Excellency is right. However, Your Majesty, I don't know many men, nor am I familiar with the noble families, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help. Your Majesty, why don't you ask my second and eldest brothers to help with the consultation?"
The Prince of Zhi, who had just hosted a banquet for a young nobleman, twitched his lips and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Father Your Majesty, I'm not familiar with this place either. How about letting the Crown Prince come?"
Without saying a word, Prince Zhi threw this hot potato to the Crown Prince.
This fourth brother dug a hole for himself after just two words. Was he intentionally trying to remind the emperor that he was trying to win over his subjects? Too shady!
The Fourth Master nodded after hearing this and said, "That's fine."
Prince Zhi: "Hmm?"
What kind of move is this? Why can't he understand it?
The prince: “…”
Is this the focus now?
What's Master Guaerjia's expression like? They're still discussing who is more familiar with the prince!
The smile on Lord Guaerjia's face froze, and he couldn't help but look at the Fourth Master again.
What does Prince Yong mean by this?
Emperor Kangxi, who was in charge, glanced at his son, then at his ministers, and suddenly slammed the table. "Fourth Brother, what are you talking about? Ruyu is a beautiful and intelligent girl with outstanding character. Why does she need you to help her find a husband? You are all so careless and speak nonsense. If you tarnish her reputation, I will punish you! Why don't you apologize to Lord Guarjia?"
Lord Guarjia came back to his senses from a trance, and with a pale face, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, absolutely not. The prince was kind-hearted, why does he need to apologize?"
The Fourth Master was stunned for a moment, then clasped his fists and said, "Sir, Yinzhen has spoken out of turn..."
Lord Guarjia immediately dodged away: "It's unacceptable."
The Fourth Master nodded, glanced at the time, and said to the emperor, "Father, I'm not very good at talking, so I won't stay any longer. The full moon banquet will be held tomorrow, and I have other matters to attend to at home. I'll be leaving now."
When Emperor Kangxi heard this, he glanced at the pale face of Lord Guarjia and finally waved his hand: "Get out of here!"
After the Fourth Master left, Emperor Kangxi said to Lord Guarjia, "The Fourth Master... is still young and not very steady. My dear, please don't mind him."
Lord Guarjia wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the smile on his face was a little forced. He said directly: "Your Majesty, I know."
"Just looking at your ability to raise the Crown Princess, I know Ruyu must be no less capable. I also like this child; she's a good girl. I'll help you arrange her marriage and will definitely find her a perfect husband."
Upon hearing this, Lord Guarjia was stunned for a moment, then kowtowed immediately: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
"Okay, it's getting late, you may leave now." Emperor Kangxi said, then glanced at the Crown Prince: "Why don't you see your father-in-law off?"
"No, no, Your Majesty, I will take my leave now..." Lord Guaerjia trotted out of the hall as if someone was chasing him.
The prince replied "yes", but before he could take two steps, the person disappeared from sight.
"What a curse! It's all curse! Look at your fourth brother, what has he become?"
After all, he was an old minister who had always served him. Seeing that the old minister was unable to back down from the situation, Emperor Kangxi felt very uncomfortable.
Thinking about his fourth son's stubborn attitude, he became extremely angry.
"Father Emperor, why don't you just give the person to the fourth son?" Prince Zhi asked after trying it out.
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Kangxi hit him on the forehead with a memorial.
"You're talking nicely, how about I point the person out to you?"
When Prince Zhi heard this, his face turned pale. "Father, I don't want this. Why are you bringing this up on me?"
No matter how good a woman was, he wouldn't want her, let alone a woman who had her heart set on the fourth brother.
Besides, he was just testing the waters. The Guarjia clan was quite powerful, and if he really married her to the Fourth Brother, it wouldn't be a good thing for him. He didn't know why the Fourth Brother was so foolish as to refuse to accept her. Taking her home and putting her in the yard as a decoration would be a good idea.
"Oh," Emperor Kangxi glared at Prince Zhi unhappily, "Don't worry, it's not your turn."
Hand the person over to him, and then go to his house to suffer injustice?
How could he treat his old minister like this?
The key point is that the fourth brother doesn't seem to care about the girl at all.
Besides, Ruyu has been in love with the fourth brother for many years, and everyone in the capital knows it. Which family would be willing to marry her?
I couldn't help but feel a little confused for a moment, and couldn't understand why the fourth brother was so straightforward. Who did he take the blame from?
