Chapter 60, Heart Disease(1/2)
After asking Minyi to question such words in person, Fu Kangan was shocked and woke up from alcohol.
He was not afraid of Minyi making trouble with him, but what he was afraid of was that Minyi was really able to hear the clues and implicate Liansheng again.
Liansheng can not want him...but he cannot implicate Liansheng because of his wishful thinking.
He never blamed Liansheng. He knew that Liansheng was accused of getting married just two months after he was born, and everything was already destined;
He also understood better that Liansheng was a princess of the Qing Dynasty. In addition to her personal love, her marriage also shouldered the burden of stabilizing the country.
Although he was unwilling to watch Liansheng marry Lawang, he only complained about God's unfairness; he also attributed to his previous life, and the fate he had with Liansheng was not enough, so he could only meet in this life, but he had no chance to stay together...
How could he tell Liansheng to be seen by Minyi because of himself? How could he bear it? Woman would spread such words because of jealousy?
He calmed down first, held his drunkenness, glanced at Minyi and smiled sideways.
"I have someone in my heart...yes, you're right."
Fu Kangan laughed foolishly with the intention of drinking, "Why, you are so sore, right? Minyi, you are my concubine, you can't be jealous... Being jealous for your wife is a seven-thing."
Minyi heard her heart pounding for a moment, and then she sank hard.
"Third Master, I didn't expect that you were so frank and admitted it in front of me!"
Minyi said as she grabbed a glass of wine, raised her head and fucked her, "I thought you would hide carefully, but I really didn't expect you to admit it so generously! I want to ask you: Are you crazy? You don't want to live anymore, right?"
Minyi's tone made Fukang An uneasy - it seems that Minyi really guessed it.
Fu Kangan made a fuss in his heart and laughed, "Am I crazy? Yes, I was crazy, I was crazy for that person."
"But if I say I don't want to live anymore... tsk, this isn't enough."
Fu Kang'an's eyes suddenly turned, "Isn't it just a concubine of a county magistrate? I like it if I like it. If I take it away, so what? I don't believe that a small county magistrate dares to sue!"
Minyi was shocked, "County Magistrate? Concubine? Master, what exactly are you talking about?"
Minyi originally thought she had understood, but after Fu Kangan said a few words, she was completely confused again.
Aren’t it the princess and the princess? Why did they go to the county magistrate and the concubine?
Where is this? How can it be like heaven and earth?
Seeing that Minyi was in chaos, Fukang An finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, smiled slowly, and his drunken eyes became hazy again.
"I didn't want to tell you, but since you said you knew, I won't hide it from you."
This time, Fu Kangan no longer held the wine jar, but changed to a small wine cup and carefully divided the wine, then he squeezed the wine cup and drank it in small sips.
"... Since getting married, I have been in Yunnan first and then to Yili. I served in the military camp, but you stayed in the capital to serve my mother. We were so far apart that my official position was not qualified to take care of my family. At home, Ama, the fourth princess sister-in-law and little sister have just passed away. You need to be served and help my mother take care of her family."
"Minyi, but you don't know the loneliness and hardship of me alone in the two military camps in the southwest and northwest - I need someone to serve me, know the cold and the heat, and serve me with a towel..."
Minyi had a twitch in her throat, "So the third master means, do you want to take a concubine?"
Fu Kangan smiled, "Those who know me are also good wives. I don't want to take a concubine, but I have met such a person!"
Fu Kangan said, reaching out to grab Minyi's hand with a thick face, and patting it with a smile.
"... Her name is Xiang'er, from Yili. She was originally a concubine of a county magistrate. The county magistrate was a Mongolian. She came back to Beijing a while ago and wanted to find a higher official position. As a result, he threw Xiang'er in his hometown for several months and ignored him. Xiang'er returned to Yili in anger... She happened to meet me; she followed me, not with the county magistrate."
Minyi was a little dizzy and stomped her feet in a hurry, "If the third master wants to take a concubine, what kind of person does not have it?! It would be the same if you use some money and buy a clean and good family daughter; if people outside don't like it, there are so many ready-made girls in the mansion, and the third master wants to praise anyone, isn't he more aware of the rules and better?"
"Why did the Third Master take a fancy to someone else's concubine and even force him to take it over? No matter how small the county magistrate's position is, he will be appointed by the court after all. Isn't this matter? If outsiders find out about this, they will not be allowed to report to the Third Master to a copy?"
Fu Kangan laughed so hard that he covered his stomach, but he didn't make any noise.
He smiled and then patted Minyi's hand, "You didn't understand the key, and you didn't understand her beauty... Listen, I'll tell you again."
"I said her name is Xiang'er; I met her in Yili... Didn't you think of anything?"
Although Minyi was far away from the palace since she was a child, she did not have the son of Fukang'an family, and her daughters had the opportunity to walk in the palace since she was a child. However, Minyi's Ama also served as the secretary of the cabinet and was well versed in the palace. Later, she was the governor and the chief magistrate, and had many friends with princes, so she was not ignorant of the affairs in the palace.
Minyi narrowed her eyes slightly, "Xiang, Yili... Are you trying to say that Xiang'er's appearance is as beautiful as Concubine Rong's master, and her body has a special fragrance like Concubine Rong's master?"
Concubine Rong was granted the title of "Rong", which is the title of Chinese characters. However, the Qing Dynasty was a dynasty with various ethnic groups and used in multiple languages in the palace. Therefore, in addition to the title of "Rong", Concubine Rong also has the title of Uyghur and Manchu.
The emperor himself was well aware of Uyghur, so he named Rong Fei the Uyghur as "Ipalhan", which means "Fragrant Girl". This is used to praise Rong Fei for bringing spices from the Western Regions and being good at preparing flower dew and fragrant dew.
So when we talk about the use of "incense" and "Yili", we think of Concubine Rong the most directly.
Fu Kangan finally smiled with satisfaction, but the smile was still silent, as if it had accumulated in his heart, so deep and so deep.
Seeing her husband's expression, Minyi's heart sinks even lower.
"It turns out that he is a beautiful girl. No wonder the third master is willing to ignore the official voice and even more willing to win over what he loves!"
Fu Kangan was still laughing, but he turned his eyes away, "This is fate. I can never forget it after taking a look. I will get her at all costs... Minyi, she will be my concubine, accompany me in the military camp, serving food and clothing."
"I won't take her back home, nor will I ask her to salute her mother... You are still my concubine. She won't enter the house, so you can rest assured."
Minyi's whole body trembled slightly.
Should she be happy? Can she go with relief?
Even if Xiang'er only stays with her husband in the military camp, even if Xiang'er is not qualified to enter the house... But as a woman, even if she has no status, she can take all her husband's attention. What else is there to be unsatisfied?
But she could only keep a name in her spare time, stay in the capital to serve her mother-in-law, and then look at her husband from afar, not knowing her return date!
Is this kind of life a blessing for her?
Looking at Minyi's struggle and pain, Fu Kang'an felt no guilt.
But he was not only guilty of his concubine, but also the innocent Xianger...
But at this moment, in order to protect the person in his heart, he could only make this bad decision. Just ask Minyi to treat the person in his heart as Xiang'er. He could ruin his reputation in this life, but he could not tolerate himself hurting that person at all.
Because he replaced Jiuye and invited him to serve in the Yunnan military camp, the emperor had already given Fukang'an's title of Right Assistant Minister of Revenue and the title of Deputy Governor of the Inlaid Blue Banner to Yili to work in Yili. This time he returned to Beijing, the emperor promoted his Mongolian deputy commander of the Inlaid Blue Banner to the Inlaid Yellow Banner to the Manchu Deputy Governor of the Inlaid Yellow Banner.
From the blue flags of the lower five flags to the yellow flags of the upper three flags; from the deputy commander of the Mongolian flag to the deputy commander of the Manchurian flag, Fukang'an has already walked steadily on the Qingyun Road step by step.
But the emperor's favor made Fu Kangan even more uneasy.
What he has done in the past few years is just to serve in the military camp on behalf of his father, and there is no question of making meritorious contributions. On the contrary, the emperor just rewarded Zhang'ai, the guard of the Qianqing Sect who went to the military camp to serve in the military camp. Since he arrived at the military camp, he was very brave and rewarded the title of "Tokmotebatulu" and still rewarded 100 taels of silver as usual.
As the saying goes, raising a thousand days is used for a moment. These guards who once walked in front of the imperial guards went to the military camp to make meritorious service... The emperor was so kind to him again. He knew that it was time for him to make great contributions to the court, to repay the emperor and to justify Ama's reputation.
At this time, the matter between Xiao Jinchuan was almost in a quagmire, and the emperor had fewer and fewer people available to him.
Even Princess Hejing's husband, Sebutenbalejuel, was sent by the emperor to Sichuan to interrogate the officials involved in the crime, but he did not understand the trial. Instead, he intended to favor the ministers who were in charge of the affairs of the emperor.
After the emperor was disappointed, he was furious and issued an order to scold: "Sebutenbalejuer is a confused person. Because he repeatedly begged to go to the military camp to practice military affairs, he ordered him to serve as a counselor. However, he still taught him earnestly and hoped that he would make changes."
"After I unexpectedly arrived at the military camp, I did not want to work together to suppress the bandits, favored Wu Dai, and based on his one-sided words, he demanded Wen Fu and wanted to add a crime. As a result, the matter of the fight was delayed for more than a month. The crime of eccentricity and delay was nothing to do!"
"Sebutenbalejul, all titles and responsibilities are all resigned!"
This third-eign prince, after being repelled by the emperor once when he pacified the Hui tribe, tried his best to make meritorious service on the battlefield and almost died in the military camp... In order to win back the emperor's heart, after winning the title back, he lost all the titles this time.
When the news reached the harem, even Concubine Ying and Concubine Yu and other concubines from Mongolia could only sigh, "I almost lost my life last time and won the title back; then this time, all the titles and responsibilities were revoked. Do you have to fight again to get it back?"
Yuqin stared at Wanxi, "It's also Gulun's prince. Look at the emperor's attitude towards us, and look at this third prince... tsk, it's not that I am partial, but that the emperor's mind is too big."
Although Wanxi knew that the emperor had always protected their children, she was even more worried about the overall situation of the court at this moment. "The people sent by the emperor to Sichuan were unable to understand Xiao Jinchuan's affairs. Not only was there no power to fight for the suppression, but the internal strife became like this."
"I don't know who the emperor can send next..."
If the Ninth Master is still there... or the veteran Yue Zhongqi, who helped the Ninth Master to pacify the Great Jinchuan back then, was still there, then the little Jinchuan would definitely not dare to make such a rebellion!
It's a pity...
The next day, news came from the emperor's orders to order the fourth prince Fulong'an to replace the third prince Sebutenbalezhuer and to go to Sichuan to investigate the matter.
Fulongan has always been safe in his work, and although he doesn't have to worry about being as partial as the third prince, Fulongan can only do the investigation and handling matters. He can't take the troops and can't completely solve Xiao Jinchuan's affairs.
Even the emperor sighed in his decree, "... At this time, the officers and soldiers are entering Xiao Jinchuan, and they are in need of command from the senior officials."
Wanxi couldn't help but stay in the small Buddhist temple for a while every day, just to pray for the emperor to the emperor that this senior official who could command the army to pacify Xiao Jinchuan appeared earlier.
Fulong'an just finished the Dragon Boat Festival and left Beijing on the seventh day of the fifth month and rushed to Sichuan. One day later, on the eighth day of the fifth month, the emperor ordered Fukang'an to study and walk in the Military Affairs Office.
This situation is quite similar to the situation when the Ninth Master was sent to Yunnan. As soon as he left, the emperor promoted Fulong'an in various ways and worked part-time.
Even Wanxi was so nervous that she was sweating in her palms.
The Great Jinchuan was pacified by the Ninth Master, and the one who could shock Jinchuan at this time must be the reputation of the Ninth Master. However, among the Ninth Master's son, Fu Ling'an, the eldest son who could lead troops, had already sacrificed his life for the country; the rest of Long Ge'er was not good at leading troops, and Fu Chang'an was less than old.
——So, there is only one Qilin to protect it.
When the battle of Jinchuan in the New Year is in a stalemate, the emperor is waiting for the appearance of a hero and can lead the imperial army to pacify Jinchuan. Wanxi can speak out and encourage Jiuye to volunteer... But that is where the relationship between Wanxi and Jiuye is;
At this time, it was replaced by Qilinbao. Although Wanxi and Qilinbao are in love with this child, Qilinbao has half grown up with Wanxi. But after all, Qilinbao is Qilinbao, not Jiuye.
Besides, there have been too many people lost in the Jiuye Mansion in the past few years, Qilin Bao is the heart of Jiufu Jin. Even if Wanxi understands the emperor's heart, she can no longer give Qilin Bao like she mentioned Jiuye back then.
This is worse than not knowing, but Zhilai can do nothing, and Wanxi is sick.
There is no serious illness, it's just a cough.
Guiyunsampan also said that it was caused by anxiety.
At this time, Xiaoqi was already married, and only Jiujiu was there in the palace to accompany his mother. Jiujiu kept asking why Wanxi was anxious, but Wanxi couldn't say anything. Seeing that Jiujiu was anxious, Wanxi could only say that it was because Jiujiu was about to get married and was reluctant to leave her.
Jiujiu had no idea. According to his childhood habits, he just went to find his younger brother Jalantai.
The two are about to get married, and Jalantai is walking in front of the emperor, so it is not difficult to meet each other.
To be continued...
