"Other workshops are fine, but the watch workshop here needs to be set up..."
The Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince came out of the Little East Gate while talking.
The Tenth Prince did not respond, but slowed down his pace and looked to the side of the road.
Seeing this, the Ninth Prince also looked over, showing surprise: "Why are you here? Are you looking for me? Why don't you come into the garden?"
"Your servant greets the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master..."
It turned out to be Zhang Baozhu. When he saw the two men coming out, he stepped forward to greet them and then answered the Ninth Prince: "I am here to see the Fifth Prince. I have asked someone to pass on the message."
The Ninth Prince looked at the Tenth Prince, not knowing what to say.
It turned out that he was not looking for himself, but a private matter.
At this time, I found Haidian eagerly, what to do?
To promote the Fifth Lady?
You can't be that confused, right?
The Ninth Prince didn't know how to respond.
The Tenth Prince reminded in a low voice: "I heard that the Fifth Prince brought the Second Prince here yesterday."
The Ninth Prince was very surprised. He was thinking whether to leave immediately or ask someone to urge the Fifth Prince, when he heard movement at the door.
The Fifth Prince came out from the Little East Gate.
"Fifth Master..."
Zhang Baozhu bowed in greeting.
"father in law……"
The Fifth Prince looked uncomfortable.
Seeing this, although Ninth Prince was curious, he still said tactfully: "Fifth Brother, we will go back first..."
The Fifth Prince nodded hurriedly and waved his hand, saying, "You guys go back first. I'll take my father-in-law to the police station."
The Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince turned and left.
When they turned a corner, the Ninth Prince whispered, "What did Fifth Brother think? Didn't he explain this to Fifth Sister-in-law before he brought the person here? Even if Fifth Sister-in-law didn't understand, it's not someone else's turn to interrupt!"
The Manchus attach great importance to relatives by marriage.
When it comes to matters concerning married daughters and grandchildren, the maternal uncle’s family has a say, but this does not apply to the royal family.
The royal family doesn't have that rule.
If Zhang Baozhu really speaks up about the emperor's grandson, and the matter gets reported to the emperor, there will be no good consequences.
The Tenth Prince said, "I don't know. Maybe the Fifth Sister-in-law is desperate and is trying all kinds of treatments?"
The Ninth Prince frowned and said, "I hope Zhang Baozhu won't be confused..."
*
It is not the place to talk outside Xiaodong Gate.
After the two princes left, the Fifth Prince took Zhang Baozhu to the headquarter.
When they arrived at the living room and the guests and hosts were seated, the Fifth Prince asked directly, "Did Fu Jin send someone to look for my father-in-law?"
Zhang Baozhu was almost forty years old and had a beard, but he looked young and elegant, as if he was in his thirties.
When the father-in-law and the son-in-law sat together, they seemed like equals.
Zhang Baozhu was a quiet and taciturn person. In the Fifth Prince's impression, his father-in-law seemed to be practicing silence and would not speak if possible.
Before the wedding and during the "returning gift", the Fifth Prince went to Tatala's house, and it was Zhang Baozhu's eldest brother who came forward to talk to the Fifth Prince.
Seeing Zhang Bao looking up at the Fifth Prince, he hesitated and said, "It is a blessing for the grandson to be raised by the Fifth Master himself. Fu Jin also knows that this is the Fifth Master's kindness to the grandson. It's just that I am nosy. Thinking that the grandson is four years old this year and is about to start learning, I want to ask the Fifth Master, is it for the purpose of the grandson's education?"
"Well, Khan Ama's grace, the second prince will be allowed to study in the upper study room next year."
The Fifth Prince said.
When he went back to the Prince's Mansion to pick up his son yesterday, he mentioned this matter to the Fifth Lady, but the Fifth Lady was very emotional at the time and only wanted to stop him, so she probably didn't hear him.
Although the couple did not resort to physical combat, they still had an unpleasant quarrel.
Seeing that even people from the Hetala family had come today, the Fifth Prince felt a little regretful that he had not explained the seriousness of the matter clearly to the Fifth Lady.
The Fifth Lady loves her son dearly, and for the sake of her child, she would not stop it even if she was unwilling.
Zhang Baozhu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the answer.
This is the best result.
If there was no such reason, and it was just to prevent the Fifth Lady from raising the emperor's grandson and to separate the mother and son, that would be the worst.
Thinking of the Fifth Lady's eyes that were swollen like rotten peaches, Zhang Baozhu gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know how to choose the Haha beads for the emperor's grandson? I am your youngest son, who is nine years old this year..."
He is the best student among his three sons.
If we really want to talk about future, it would be more appropriate to study hard and take the Eight Banners imperial examination.
But when he thought of the Fifth Lady... Zhang Baozhu finally softened his heart.
If a close relative could be arranged to make haha beads for the emperor's grandson and have him stay by his side, the Fifth Lady's worries would be reduced.
The Fifth Prince looked at Zhang Baozhu with a stern face.
Although it is customary to select the study partner of the princes and grandchildren from their mother's family, the Fifth Prince had never considered his wife's family before.
He had some doubts about his family's upbringing.
Although this father-in-law has never caused any trouble, he has also shown a tendency to be easily influenced.
The Fifth Prince was afraid that the children of the Tatala family also had the same problem.
If he turns around and instigates the emperor's grandson, there will be a rift between father and son.
"Since my father-in-law loves his children, he should also understand my love for him..."
The Fifth Prince was not a cold-hearted person, and he had no lack of respect for his father-in-law Zhang Baozhu, so he spoke carefully.
Zhang Baozhu looked at the Fifth Prince, his lips moved, and his heart sank.
Not wanting the children of the Hetala family to accompany the emperor's grandson to study would still separate the emperor's grandson from the Fifth Lady.
"Fifth Master..."
Zhang Baozhu's voice was filled with pleading: "My family is poor and poor, and I am not well-educated. My wife's vision is not as broad as other noble ladies. She only sees the small space in front of her, and she only cares about the health of the little prince..."
The Fifth Prince looked away, picked up the teacup, and said, "Father-in-law is too modest. The wife is also a lady from a famous family, otherwise the Khan Ama would not have appointed her as the prince's wife. It's just that the emperor's grandson has come this far... The wife is asking too many questions, which may do more harm than good."
The child is about to start to understand and be sensible, but the people around the concubine clearly distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate children, and there is a possibility that the child will be taught in the wrong way.
The Fifth Prince also felt upset.
He hoped that his eldest son would recover, but he also knew that the hope was slim, so he had to make preparations for both scenarios.
He raised his head, looked at Zhang Baozhu, and said, "Father-in-law, the current situation is already the best. Asking for anything else is just greed..."
Zhang Baozhu looked at the teacup in the Fifth Prince's hand, let out a breath, and stood up from his seat.
This was the first time the Fifth Prince had spoken about this matter since the Emperor's grandson became seriously ill.
Zhang Baozhu knew that it was meaningless to distinguish them at this time. The Fifth Concubine was still doing well in her position as a Concubine, which was indeed due to the tolerance of the royal family.
"I understand..."
Zhang Baozhu said in a deep voice: "It is my fault for not thinking things through..."
Zhang Baozhu said goodbye.
The Fifth Prince stood up and escorted him out personally.
After watching Zhang Baozhu leave, the Fifth Prince looked into the inner courtyard for a moment and then went to the Fifth Residence.
*
Five main houses.
The Ninth Prince had finished washing up and was mentioning to Shushu that Zhang Baozhu had come.
"Fifth sister-in-law is confused. Why would she drag Zhang Baozhu into this? He is the father-in-law in name, but it doesn't carry much weight. If she really wants her family to come forward, she should go directly to Mafa..."
The Ninth Prince was familiar with Zhang Baozhu and was worried that he would be angered, so he thought that the Fifth Lady's behavior was inappropriate.
Shushu listened and was a little worried: "This...why didn't Fifth Brother discuss it with Fifth Sister-in-law? Will there be trouble?"
For the Fifth Lady, her position as mistress of the house was in name only, and the only thing she could hold on to was her son.
If the emperor's grandson was around, there would be a fig leaf. In order to take care of the emperor's grandson, the housekeeping and socializing were left to the concubine.
But when mother and child are separated, this fig leaf disappears.
By then, not only the relationship between mother and son will be hurt, but also the dignity of the prince's wife.
The Fifth Lady is a proud person.
The Ninth Prince glanced at Shushu and said, "Are you worried that she might commit suicide? Don't worry, she doesn't have the courage to do so!"
Shu Shu thought about the Fifth Lady's personality. Although she was said to be as gentle as a chrysanthemum, she was actually a bit timid.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been suppressed by Princess Liu when she first married into the palace, unable to stand on her own feet, causing everyone to be worried.
Shu Shu said: "It's good that nothing happens..."
There was movement outside.
Cui Baisui came in and reported, "Master, Fu Jin, the Fifth Master is here and is in the front living room."
The Ninth Prince stood up and said to Shushu, "Master, go and take a look. If you come at this time, you will probably want to eat for free. Ask the kitchen if they have ready-made braised pork, braised pork, or something like that."
Shu Shu said: "For dinner, I asked someone to make lotus leaf spare ribs and bacon..."
Ninth Prince said, "These two dishes are enough, they are all what Fifth Prince likes."
The Ninth Prince took Cui Baisui out.
Shushu instructed Baiguo, "Tell the kitchen to arrange a table for them in the front yard. Add a lotus leaf pancake with meat to the main course."
Baiguo agreed and went to the kitchen to pass on the message.
Shushu remembered what the lady had said before and couldn't help but rub her forehead. She had forgotten to tell the Ninth Prince that her nephew was coming to study.
However, given Ninth Prince's temper, he would definitely agree immediately.
I just don’t know if the Fifth Prince will say it today.
According to Shushu's understanding of the Fifth Prince, if the Fifth Prince really wanted to send his legitimate son here to study, he would not bypass his brother's wife.
I always have to say something to myself...
*
In the living room, several plates of steamed buns were neatly arranged.
The Fifth Prince sat there with a confused look on his face, which was completely different from every time he came here to eat and drink.
The Ninth Prince came in and said, "Is it because the Fifth Sister-in-law has invited external help to take my nephew back home?"
The Fifth Prince shook his head and said, "It's not that. My father-in-law wants to send his youngest son to be a companion to the Second Prince."
The Ninth Prince said, "Isn't that good? Having your own uncle serving you is always more dedicated than others. I heard that Chang Tai almost became the prince's study companion, but he didn't get in because of his father's death. Chang Hai is also known for his weak health."
The Hesheli clan members who later came to work in Yuqing Palace were all the prince's cousins or uncles.
The Fifth Prince looked at the Ninth Prince, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I want to choose a son from the Guarjia clan to be a companion to the Second Prince."
Brother Ninth: "..."
After a while, the Ninth Prince frowned and said, "Fifth Brother, do you want to hand the Second Prince over to Guaerjia's care?"
It is different from this case where a stepmother arranges someone to take care of one's daily life.
It is not quite appropriate to hand over the education as well as the upbringing.
"What on earth do you think?"
The Ninth Prince was a little confused: "Is it necessary to do this?"
She is already four years old, and has a wet nurse and a nanny by her side. It is better for the Fifth Prince to take care of her personally than to leave her to the care of the concubine.
The Fifth Prince said, "Prince An was given to Concubine Jin to raise by Prince An..."
The Ninth Prince rolled his eyes and said, "How can they be the same? At that time, Prince An's mansion was famous for having dead children. All the children born to the first wife, the second wife, and the second wife died. Not only was the third second wife young, but she also gave birth to one every year. If Prince An didn't intervene, I'm afraid the next one wouldn't be able to survive..."
