Chapter 339: Drama
On the side of the hall, Yiduli, Baizhu, Fengde and Fengche were all there, and there were several other relatives of the Thirteenth Prince. Although everyone was greeting, they were all confused.
In the past two years, the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, which has a cold family, has never had such a scene where the princes are present? If it were placed in other prince's mansions, the little prince would have been in full moon and a concubine, or something else, there would have been such a scene. But this is the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, and this situation is really abnormal.
Seeing that the Sixteenth Prince and the Seventeenth Prince came in with Cao Yong, everyone stood up to greet him. The Sixteenth Prince and Yiduli were also familiar with each other and said with a smile: "Old Yi, oh, Cao Yong is now a colleague of you! By the way, you are still relatives, so it is cheap to get along with each other."
Yi Duli smiled twice and said, "Sixteenth Master is right, cheap, cheap, if not, Old Yi wouldn't know that if Fu was used to being merciful." At this point, he looked at Cao Yong's expression a little ambiguous.
Cao Yong's old face turned red, knowing that he was laughing at the incident when he met Yang Ruixue that day. Although Cao Yong explained it over and over again, he only said that he was an old acquaintance in the south, but how could Yi Duli believe it? He just thought that he had returned Cao Yong's old lover. Now that the two are married, it is a pity for such a meeting.
Seeing that Cao Yong did not have the intention of rekindling his old love, Yidu immediately remembered Yang Ruixue and was still a little moved. Although the woman of color here is a good family, she is just a business owner and is very easy to get started. Therefore, he asked Cao Yong to ask Yang Ruixue about the place where he lives in the capital.
How could Cao Yong know this? Yi Duli didn't believe it, but he didn't know it. He just thought that he was hiding his own private affairs. Now he deliberately tried to slap him a few words, which was also to harm him.
The Seventeenth Prince didn't care, but the Sixteenth Prince heard Yiduli's words pointing to it. After sitting down, he asked with a smile: "Furuo still has something to pity for the fragrance and jade, why don't you know that he thought he was a lump of wood that doesn't understand the charm!"
Yi Duli just wanted to joke with Cao Yong, but didn't think about offending him. He smiled and said, "Well, Master Sixteenth, this is the case. A few days ago, Old Yi and Furuo went to have a drink together. They met a handsome young wife like a fairy and made a drink. They cried and shouted, saying that Furuo was like her brother-in-law. If it were someone else, this cheap sister-in-law would also feel sorry for her. But Furuo also looked like a brother-in-law, so he sent the waiter to call the young wife's family to help her! If it were other men, the meat she sent to her mouth could still be let go like this!"
Seeing these words, the Sixteenth Prince and the Seventeenth Prince laughed. The Seventeenth Prince looked at Cao Yong and said with a smile: "Fruo is quite steady!"
Speaking of which, he is three years younger than Cao Yong, but because he is an elder, he speaks so old-fashionedly.
The sixteenth prince looked at Cao Yong, smiled and shook his head, and said, "You are not romantic and useless. You can let go of such a romantic encounter. You really don't understand the charm!"
I heard Bai Zhu say, "There is no wind and waves, and the flies are not sure about seamless eggs. Even if this woman is at the top of her wine, she will not recognize people randomly! Cao Yong, have you raised an outdoor room outside and have such a cheap sister-in-law?"
Although Bai Zhu said it unintentionally, this sentence was unpleasant to everyone's ears.
Yi Duli regretted it and frowned slightly. He really shouldn't have mentioned this. Cao Yong just smiled and shook his head without saying anything.
Bai Zhu thought he had grabbed Cao Yong's painful foot and couldn't help but feel a little proud. He smiled twice and said, "Look, this is not the case! But Cao Yong, you are too arrogant. You are really afraid of me when you look at me! I didn't believe it when I heard that I didn't believe it now, but now I know it's like this!"
Because he was the cousin of Cao Yong's aunt Zhao Jia and the brother-in-law of the Thirteenth Prince, he didn't take Cao Yong much seriously. He was born to the same age as the two, and relatives and friends praised Cao Yong for being steady and sensible.
This time he seized the opportunity, how could he not make a few sarcastic sentences?
Fengde and Fengche brothers have always had good friends with Cao Song and have close relationships with Cao Yong. When they heard his uncle's words, they knew that it was inappropriate, but they didn't know how to persuade him.
Yiduli was old and waved to Bai Zhu and said, "Don't go far with these shadowless things. I heard that Master Jiu brought the opera troupe here today, but he hasn't listened to the opera for several days!"
Although the Sixteenth Prince and the Seventeenth Prince were annoyed that Bai Zhu was mean, neither Cao Yong got angry, and they were not easy to interrupt.
Cao Yong's face was a little gloomy. It was not because Bai Zhu said he was afraid of it, but because he thought of the reason why the prince gathered in the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion.
I heard that the old concubine in the palace was seriously ill. In the past few days, the empress dowager issued an imperial edict ordering the Thirteenth Prince and the Concubine to enter the palace. The old concubine was the queen mother's biological sister. She went to Beijing from Korqin, Mongolia with her sister in the eleventh year of Shunzhi.
The old concubine once raised the Eighth Princess, and the Eighth Princess's brother, Thirteenth Princess, has always been close to each other. The Empress Dowager summoned the Thirteenth Prince and Thirteenth Princess to the palace, because of the relationship between the old concubine.
Today, the princes gathered together. Except for a few who have always been close to the Thirteenth Prince, the others should have their own plans. Or they felt that the deposed prince was not likely to be restored, and the Thirteenth Prince, who had always been inconsistent with him, would turn around.
However, Cao Yong thought of Kangxi's suspicious nature now, and knew that the gathering at the Thirteenth Prince's mansion today would be something to think about. In addition, the old concubine was seriously ill, and the Thirteenth Prince was still listening to operas. When it was passed on to the palace, the empress dowager would inevitably feel unhappy.
The Thirteenth Prince, I’m afraid he’ll be cheated by these attentive brothers again.
Cao Yong wants to have this same point.
In the flower hall, the Seventh Prince looked at the brothers and brothers and sighed. In the past two years, he has been in contact with the Thirteenth Prince without avoiding suspicion. In addition to being influenced by Cao Yong, he also felt that things hurt himself.
Since the eldest prince and the prince fought against each other, the capital has not stopped over the years. However, no one took it seriously at all. The mother tribe is Baoyi and has a low status; he is also disabled and cannot win the emperor's heart.
It was not until recent years that the emperor's father was exhausted by his clever sons and he was willing to give up on these duties.
He didn't want to add icing on the cake, nor did he want to add icing on the cake. He just made a good relationship.
Now, the Ninth Prince framed the Thirteenth Prince so brightly, but the Seventh Prince couldn't sit still. He didn't want to offend people, and he was also impatient to deal with it like this, so he said goodbye to the Thirteenth Prince on the excuse of something in the mansion.
Except for the third and fourth princes, the other princes all stood up and the fifth prince said, "Lao Qi, I came with you, and I will go back together. There are many things waiting for me outside!"
The Twelfth Prince originally came with the trend, but when he saw the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince said goodbye, he also walked away.
In the hall, there were only the third prince, the fourth prince, the eighth prince, the ninth prince, the tenth prince, the thirteenth prince and the fourteenth prince.
The third prince held the teacup and smiled. The fourth prince was still as serious as ever, but his eyes occasionally looked at the ninth prince were a little cold.
The 14th Prince and the 13th Prince are about the same age. They talk and laugh, and look very close.
This was the butler of the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion came to report, but the theater was cleaned up.
The Thirteenth Prince smiled happily, stood up and said to the princes, "Since you are ready there, then all brothers and fourteenth brothers should move?"
The Ninth Prince smiled and agreed, "The most famous team in Beijing was going to go to the Kang Prince's Mansion today, but I forced someone to force me to come. They have two pillars, and the singing style is too authentic!"
The eighth prince hesitated for a moment, looked at the third prince and the fourth prince with a smile and said, "What do you mean by two brothers?"
The third prince smiled and tapped the table with his fingers, saying, "Of course, if you watch it, it will be a good show, and if you don't watch it, wouldn't it be a waste of a good show?"
The fourth prince turned his head and looked at the eighth prince and said, "Eighth brother, what do you mean?"
The eighth prince was stunned and then smiled and said, "Of course I'm following the arrangements of the two brothers!"
The Fourth Prince looked at the Eighth Prince with a deep look. He finally said nothing. He followed everyone to the theater beside the garden of the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion.
The female guest was in several rooms on the right side of the second floor, while the male guest went up the stairs on the left. Even Cao Yong and Yiduli and others arrived one after another.
Cao Yong was already sad about E Fei's death, but now he thought about the situation of the Thirteenth Prince, so how could he still have the heart to listen to the opera?
He came here mainly to remind the Thirteenth Prince. He did not follow everyone upstairs, but instead found a secluded place to stand at the bend downstairs. He also called a familiar manager in the Thirteenth Mansion and asked him to quietly invite the Thirteenth Prince down.
When the Thirteenth Prince saw Cao Yong standing here with a frown, he smiled and said, "Why, you are not patient and want to take the lead?"
Cao Yong whispered: "Thirteenth Master, Duke E has turned around. I heard that the old concubine in the palace is not in good health. Thirteenth Master..."
After hearing this, the Thirteenth Prince said with a little sigh: "E Fei is gone. When I was a child, I often pestered him to take me out of the palace..." At this point, he sighed and said: "No matter what, I always have to send him away."
When I heard the drums and music, a martial artist had already come out to warm up the scene first.
"Thirteenth Master, this drama... I'll find a ritual and tell everyone to part with you!" Cao Yong said earnestly.
Even though the Thirteenth Prince is open-minded, he grew up in the palace after all, so he knows these ghosts and monsters.
Seeing Cao Yong like this, he was quite pleased and patted Cao Yong on the shoulder and said, "You are a honest person, but... but since they have arranged the show, how can I let me go? Even if there is no such thing, others will be made. If the Emperor Ama wants to praise me, what is the point of listening to the opera on his birthday? If the Emperor Ama is too lazy to pay attention to me, even if the opera troupe is driven out, it will not be better."
"Thirteenth Master..." Cao Yong heard the bleak meaning in his words and didn't know how to persuade him.
There is no father and son in the Tian family. If the Thirteenth Prince hopes that Kangxi can treat him with a kind fatherly heart, he will probably be disappointed again.
The Thirteenth Prince looked up at the sky and smiled at Cao Yong and said, "It's warm today. The spring weather is so hot. I know you are impatient with social engagements. Don't stay here and go home to rest! Even Lao Yi and the others, I will send you away later. There are some things that you can't get involved in the end, so as not to get involved!"

West of the city, Cao Mansion, Wutong Garden.
Today is winter, according to the current rules, we have to burn a kang. Because the Shaoyuan on Zhaojia's side has not been inhabited for many years, the kang road is a little blocked, and the house is filled with smoke, so we can't treat people. Therefore, Chu Yu invited Zhaojia to Wutongyuan to sit in.
The same as Zhaojia's family, there is also a house in Tian's family, so Tian's family and Zuo Cheng are also on Chuyu's side.
Hang Seng, Zuo Cheng, Zuo Cheng, and Sier and Wuer, and five children on the kang on the ground. Zhao Jia couldn't help but feel a headache when she saw it.
Zhao Jia was very puzzled about Chu Yuli meeting Tian. He was just a relative of an aide, so why did he look like an aunt who returned to the door?
However, now she lives with her nephew and has no room for more words.
Cao Yong gave her a land deed a few days ago, and Zhao Jia was quite moved. The expenses from the public are different from the money she had in her hands. Therefore, she also reminded herself to keep her temper and not to feel uncomfortable with her nephew or niece-in-law. In the future, the future of her sons will be supported by Cao Yong, the elder brother, and she cannot be offended.
Although she knew it in her heart, when she saw the silver rat leather cloak that Tian was wearing, Zhao Jia couldn't help but pull down her face. She had seen this material last month, and she chose one piece and sewed two new clothes.
Hasn't the Cao family's industries all caused a loss? Since Gongzhong has no money, why is it so popular in the capital? Zhao Jia was really annoyed when he thought about several industries under Cao Yong's name.
Who is a fool? Before the family is separated, he fell down and was not on guard against their second house! Thinking of this, Zhao Jia felt that it was very troublesome. Even the land he received a few days ago now seemed to be dismissing her and blocking her mouth.
