Zhou Yiyun dodged Liu Wu's punch and hugged the angry daughter-in-law tightly in his arms: "There will be no danger, my grandfather handed them the token." Liu Fu struggled and shouted: "The token is useless, the sword has no eyes, is you such a father?" Kidding with a child's life? ”

"Xu'er, don't forget that they are surrounded by secret guards, the other party is Brother Jiu, I just want to train them, if you are really injured, you will behead the master, okay! If you don't believe me, forget it, you still can't trust the children you taught with your own hands? After pressing the catkins on the chair and keeping a safe distance: "Your temper has not changed at all, and you will explode when you encounter a child's problem." ”

Liu Wu slapped the case: "You still blame me?" It's been a long time, and the child hasn't come back yet. ”

"Don't worry, it must be Brother Jiu who recognized them for the night, and the grandfather put on the iron coat you got for them, it must be fine, and Shi Jia, who was sent to protect him secretly, has not returned, rest assured, come and have a cup of tea to suppress the fire."

Liu Wu pushed the cup: "If you want to see Brother Jiu, you will go to see it yourself, is it the matter to let the child go here?" ”

"I don't want to," Zhou Yiyun cautiously touched his little hand: "Brother Jiu's temper is not very good, I'm a little afraid of him, but he likes children very much, so I want a few little ones to explore the way." ”

"Out of breath!" Liu Wu shook off his claws, and Zhou Yiyun clenched it tightly and didn't let go: "As soon as Brother Jiu returned to Beijing, Guo Shangshu sent someone to win him over, and he was impeached. ”

Liu Wu is still not at ease: "You said that Brother Jiu has a bad temper, will he ......?"

"Never, Brother Jiu's ambition is to lead troops to be a general, his sister-in-law went when he was four years old, and he has not returned to Beijing for more than ten years in a rage, and has been staying in the northwest, I know that he will never forget the pain of losing his son, you said that when I didn't protect Brother Ten, how could I let him follow the old path of Brother Jiu."

"The kid?"

"Trouble for favor," Zhou Yiyun sighed, and said sadly: "That child is chubby, round eyes, especially likable, the ninth brother has been gone for three years, and his mother and concubine are not idle, often recruit children into the palace to attract the attention of the father, the child is not comfortable, and when the ninth brother comes back, he will greet him with the white silk of the mansion." ”

Zhou Yihua was just about to put the child in his arms on the bed, and he opened his eyes in a daze and grinned: "Uncle Jiu, I'm hungry, take me out to find food, don't disturb my brothers to sleep." ”

"Okay, Uncle Jiu listens to you." Zhou Yihua hugged him and quietly walked out of the door, and smiled at the guards kneeling outside the room and pleaded: "Nine uncles are all bad for us, don't blame them." ”

Zhou Yihua made a straight face: "The little master pleads for you, and this king will spare you this time, not as an example!" Xiaoxiao struggled to get off the ground, imitating Lao Jiu's appearance at the moment, he felt that Jiu Bo was extremely majestic, like a big hero in his heart.

Moved all the food from the small kitchen to the courtyard, sat on the stone bench with a smile and looked at Zhou Yihua with a smile while serving food to his mouth: "Uncle Jiu, are you a general?" ”

Lao Jiuyi held him in his arms: "The stone bench is cold, Uncle Jiu is holding and eating, how can you see it with a smile?" ”

Xiaoxiao swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "The general is the most majestic, and Jiu Bo was majestic just now." ”

"Isn't your father imposing?"

"Not majestic," Xiaoxiao replied in the affirmative with his eyes half-pulled, and his father was still punished for kneeling majestic.

Lao Jiu laughed: "Do you want to be a general when you grow up?" ”

"Yes!"

"Why?"

Xiaoxiao patted the palm of his little hand, slapped off the dim sum dregs, and replied with his face: "Many people say that I look beautiful like a female doll, but I am a grandfather, my father said when he took me to ride a horse and gallop, people can not only look at the appearance but also have the temperament that exudes from the inside, the murderous spirit when fighting the enemy, the heroic spirit of being a general, and the domineering spirit of being a grandfather, so I want to be a general, and I must have murderous, heroic, and domineering." ”

"That's right, appearance can't be changed, but temperament can be cultivated."

"Uncle Jiu, you can tell me about the things on the battlefield, I like to listen to it with a smile."

In the courtyard of Jingxiao in the second half of the night, one is preaching and one is worshipping, and a few hours have become a pair of year-old friends, and the consequence is that when he returns home, Xiaoxiao is carried back by the eldest brother, and he is saved from school and finds catkins after waking up to continue to preach the glorious deeds of Jiubo.

Zhou Yiyun acted this time, not only offended his wife, but also obviously offended Zhou Yuhuang, after the next court, he was summoned to kneel at the door, Zhou Yiyun was wronged that everyone did not understand his heart, how could the child be spoiled again and again, it is easy to live only by the brain, but it can not be less practical experience, look at the last time he impulsively threw gunpowder, almost threw them into the cliff, this time he took away all the dangerous objects, and tested their ability to respond and reflect, and there was a token of the eleven mansions hanging on his chest, how could he be injured with iron armor.

An hour and a half later, Zhou Yiyun finally entered the main hall with one limp leg, and first ushered in Zhou Yuhuang scolding: "How old are you?" It's still a child's heart, my emperor and grandson are only three years old, and they are not as old as you, so you let them do such a dangerous thing, if there is a deficiency that is lost under the sword of your own people, how can you face me and your wife, it is really unreasonable. ”

Zhou Yiyun moved his legs slightly, and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it safe to go home?" ”

"Slap" Zhou Yuhuang slapped the table angrily: "Are you still reasonable?" You're not responsible when they're safe? I'm telling you they're fine, or I'll have to beat you up for dozens of boards. ”

"Father's anger, don't be angry with your son." Zhou Yiyun carefully looked at the face of the Jade Emperor of the next Zhou: "Father, you are really deaf and clear-sighted, and you should be old and strong." "Seeing his father glaring at him, it's done! Half of his anger was gone, and he continued to make persistent efforts and said: "You also know the knot in Brother Jiu's heart, I just want a few small ones to coax them Jiubo, your imperial grandson has a sweet mouth, his brain turns quickly, and you also know how to coax people, when Brother Jiu is happy, there will be nothing to do." ”

"Aren't you afraid that he will touch the scene and make things backfire?"

Zhou Yiyun immediately invited credit: "Erchen understands Brother Jiu, and the children are equipped with the latest weapons, plus the usual catkins teach them to be able to enter the eyes of Brother Jiu, you can rest assured, look at Xiaoxiao Erchen was still asleep when he left, he must have been chatting with Brother Jiu for too long, and the child likes the general......" received a cold look, and took a few steps back and didn't dare to speak.

Zhou Yuhuang tapped his index finger on the table a few times, and sneered: "My eleventh is so pleasing to people, go pick up your Fourth Emperor Brother, the guards will arrive in the afternoon." ”

Zhou Yiyun knelt down with a weak leg, and discussed with Zhou Yuhuang: "Father, can the sons and daughters not go?" ”

"You want to resist?"

"Erchen doesn't dare."

In the afternoon, Zhou Yiyun took his two sons to squat at the gate of the city, bags, cloth cloth is very employable, standing up to help the city guards check the suspicious objects and tokens entering the city, when there are few people, they will be patrolling soldiers back and forth, Zhou Yiyun is not as optimistic as them, the mind is still thinking about those painful memories, the four princes of the literati and inkmen, since childhood, the volunteer is to read all the books in the world, read the classics, learn the classics, people are like their name Zhou Yiwen, the four princes of the city, take literature as the industry, take the inkstone as the field, the most famous book building in Beijing is the library of the four princes' mansion, He often doesn't go out every day, hiding in the small building to chant poetry and paint, cook tea and touch the piano, what is even more terrifying for Zhou Yiyun is that he still has the spirit of appreciating strange texts and doubts, and the poor and sad person is him, occasionally Zhou Yiwen has to come to a sentimental drama, the food is fragrant, the flowers are falling, and the temples are white, he has to □□ a few sentences, and torture his eleventh brother's brain cells with random questions, and the punishment is even more miserable to see and punish writing big characters, stroking the piano, and placing the chessboard can also cultivate sentiment, and others are flying kites, catching birds, fighting crickets, He was punished for kicking the shuttlecock, where did he find reason, you have to ask Zhou Yiyun what is the best, the choice that is not afraid of being embarrassed should be to kick the shuttlecock, and the question of the four emperor brothers is punished to kick five each time, so as to accumulate, often kicking fifty or sixty a day, he lost a lot of weight that month, and the doctor ran several times, and the children should be told to say, I hope they can help them block the "evil spirit".

"Old Eleven?" Hearing this voice like a warm sun, and seeing the four princes who were as warm as jade, Zhou Yiyun's hair stood on end.

"Four...... Fourth brother, my brother has finally received you. "I don't know if it's excitement or fright. Zhou Yiwen was just about to comfort his eleventh brother who had "hurt" since he was a child, when he saw him drag two children: "Hehe, fourth brother, look at the eleventh brother-in-law." He smirked at his two sons.

"Zhou Zheng visited the fourth uncle, the fourth uncle is really talented and beautiful, and the talent of Yiqun."

"Zhou Ren visited the fourth uncle, although it is the first time to see you, but you can also see that the fourth uncle is more learned than the mountain, and he is both elegant and elegant."

Zhou Yiwen shook the folding fan lightly, waited for the two juniors to praise him, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and took a closer look from a distance: "It's true, there are too many people and the fourth uncle will get into the carriage and talk again." ”

The bags and cloths on the carriage were flattered by their might, and Zhou Yiyun shrank himself to squeeze into the corner of the carriage in order to escape the eyes of the fourth brother.

Zhou Yiwen is very interested in the two children: "Do you like to read? ”

"I like it!" Bao Bao and Bubu replied to him in unison. Zhou Yiyun patted his chest, fortunately, he didn't catch a smile, and he used martial arts talents to fight against literary giants.

"Can you write poetry?"

"The bag is not as high as the four uncles, but I have heard my father read a poem that is especially suitable for you, in the past there were madmen, the number of immortals, the pen fell into the storm, and the poem became a crying ghost and god." Bubu then recited: "The fame is great from now on, and it will not be extended for a while, and the literature and color will be very good, and the spread will be superb." ”

Zhou Yiwen "snapped" and folded the folding fan and praised: "Good poem, good poem, bag, cloth and four uncles go home, write down this poem, four uncles appreciate it, how about it." ”

"Listen to the fourth uncle."

As an "outsider", Zhou Yiyun leaned forward: "Four...... Fourth brother, I ...... that younger brother."

"Go, go, you go back to the house first, I don't have time to pay attention to you," he turned his face and smiled at the two children with a look of relief: "Much better than your father, he only kicked the shuttlecock when he was a child, and the first time the fourth uncle was punished was because your father couldn't make poems, and he was tired and thin after I punished him for kicking the shuttlecock." ”

Zhou Yiyun's face was full of red, and the fourth, Baobao, and Bubu laughed.

*

Zhou Yiyun, who was knocked out of the carriage halfway, returned to the mansion and ushered in the propaganda student with a smile, and after he finished talking about his ninth uncle's great achievements, he glanced left and right and asked strangely: "What about the eldest brother and second brother?" ”

Zhou Yiyun replied weakly: "Go to your fourth uncle's house." ”

"What? Why don't you bring me? Xiaoxiao was unhappy, he felt abandoned by his two older brothers.

"The third child," Zhou Yiyun advised earnestly: "Are you going to read the books on the first floor?" As far as your father and me, people like me who love and love wisdom are all disgusted by your fourth uncle, do you want to go? ”

He smiled dazzlingly when he mentioned the book, and waved his hand arrogantly: "Forget it, send me to Jiubo, I like Jiubo, he is a general, by the way, bring some delicious food, I want to honor Jiubo." ”

After being busy, Zhou Yiyun finally threw himself into the arms of Liu Wu, this day was really tired, not only was he physically punished, but also the mental blow was not small, Liu Wu looked behind him: "What about the children?" ”

"Sent away, two went to the Fourth Brother's Mansion, and one went to find the Ninth Brother," and finally reiterated: "Rest assured that they are safe." ”

Liu Fu pushed him away: "Then you rest, I'll go find this kid who started his martial arts late and has to practice more." Looking at the back of the catkins, Zhou Yiyun, who was physically and mentally exhausted, lay on his back on the bed, and secretly swore that his old age would never be like this. Suddenly thought that he hadn't notified the tenth brother yet, he promised last time that he would inform him of anything, and the fourth brother and the ninth brother returned to Beijing as a big event, so he quickly changed his clothes and drove straight to the Ten Princes' Mansion.

Three carriages carrying goods stopped at the gate of the Ten Princes' Mansion to block his way, Zhou Yiyun got off the horse and walked forward, and saw two strange mothers-in-law directing the moving of things, Zhou Yiyun recruited the guards: "What is this sending?" ”

"Back to the eleventh prince, it is a supplement for my aunt to protect the fetus."

Zhou Yiyun opened a few boxes casually, high-grade ginseng, and the best bird's nest......

"Stop it all for the master," Zhou Yiyun commanded in a stern manner: "Move these things to the hall." ”

"Eleventh Prince, this ......"

"What is this? It's the Ten Princes here, and the Lord said the same, what's the matter, the Eleventh Prince is in his pocket! Seeing this situation, the two mothers-in-law hurriedly took a few steps back and retreated to the backyard, Zhou Yiyun looked coldly at the boxes that were moved to the hall one by one, and said to the person who delivered the goods: "Remember, in the future, no one can buy the things here without the order of the Ten Princes, understand?" Beware of small mistakes. Saying that he was going to deliver the goods, he yelled at the guard: "What is delivered to the backyard has to go through the side door, what are you doing at the front door?" Do you ten princes have silver? The side door is too small to move in, so open it bigger, and if you make this mistake again, you will let the ten princes punish you to go to the toilet. "Half of the breath I had received this day was finally gone.

"The slave is guilty, and the eleventh prince and the slave went to find the tenth prince to return home?"

"No, I'll be back when it's time!" After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and entered the main hall, waiting for the ten princes to "return home".

Zhou Yiyun was still counting boxes and counting boxes in the hall, calculating the market price, and Zhou Yici took Zhou Yifeng into the hall: "Old Eleven, I really missed it, I went to your mansion with my twelfth brother to know that you came to me." ”

Zhou Yifeng saw that his eyes had been staring at this pile of boxes, and his heart was unbalanced: "Brother Eleven, you are too partial, the gifts for Brother Ten are piled up, and I haven't even caught a box for my brother." ”

Old Eleven glared at the brother in front of him: "I don't have the kindness to send supplements to pregnant women, Brother Ten, this golden egg in your house is pregnant, right?" ”

"Drink! Brother Ten is generous. Zhou Yifeng hurriedly stretched out his thumb, this supplement was too unexpected for him.

"Hehe," Lao Shi smiled awkwardly: "It's a bit too much, don't pay attention to her and turn back to Brother Ten to train her." You can pick and choose too, and take back what you like! ”

Zhou Yiyun didn't appreciate it: "Don't break the bank, if you really give it to your younger brother, I have to calculate how to turn it back into silver, and exchange some rice for a few days in the Eleventh Mansion." Lao Twelve saw that the limelight was wrong, so he obediently sat aside and drank tea, away from the dispute.

"Hey! Old Eleven, where did you light the fire again, Brother Ran Ten sent it here? ”

"Tenth brother, can you listen to my brother's advice?" Zhou Yiyun lost patience: "Father is strict with economy, you indulge them so much, aren't you slapping your father in the face?" You can't control the people in the backyard now, and you will suffer in the future, I don't know about other people's homes, Liu Wu didn't live alone in the side yard at that time and gave birth to a bag safely, I think your original idea was really right, after the child was born, send me there directly, so that the one who raised eighty percent can't raise it well. ”

"Did you curse your tenth brother like that?" Lao Shi was also angry, he didn't know about it, he was shocked when he heard it just now, this eleventh brother was still sneering.

"The two brothers, let's put out the fire and drink tea and tea."

Zhou Yiyun looked at his younger brother who helped extinguish the fire, and it was very pleasing to the eye: "Why are you here?" ”

"Brother Eleven, Brother Fourth and Brother Nine have returned to Beijing, let's go see Brother Nine!"

Zhou Yiyun didn't take his words, and asked another question: "Your father-in-law impeached Guo Shangshu, do you know why?" ”

"You know, I was also in the court that day, saying that he was good at self-mobilizing troops."

"Before, you know? Are you involved? ”

"Before? My younger brother has been busy with the affairs of the Ministry of Rites for the past few days and hasn't seen it, how can I know," Zhou Yiyun's gaze was anxious: "Brother Eleven, why don't you believe me, I really don't know." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Guo Shangshu sent someone to approach Brother Jiu and was known by your father-in-law, and his impeachment of the soldiers who are good at self-adjustment is less than 100 soldiers of Brother Jiu."

"Poof," Lao Shi didn't sulk anymore, and laughed after hearing this: "Lao Twelve, your father-in-law is really not simple." ”

Lao Twelfth was a little unconvinced: "It's impossible, my father has answered, let Shangshu defend himself." ”

Zhou Yiyun closed the door tightly, and only said after sitting back: "Why shouldn't my father, Queen Tong and the crown prince retire, the prime minister can only urgently find a backer or highlight his talents, he is in a hurry to go to the doctor and mess up his proportions, old twelve, you must remember not to let your wife get pregnant at this time, how much ability your father-in-law has, you should know it clearly, be careful not to pull you into the water, he is not sure to offend Guo Shangshu now, how can the fourth brother and the ninth brother return at the same time without the will of their father, How could my father not know the mistakes made by your father-in-law, my father is a reminder to Guo Shangshu, don't recruit troops everywhere and attract tongues. Today, I saw two more dolls in the school, namely the eldest brother and the third brother's grandson, you should think about your father's intentions. ”

Zhou Yici asked squeezedly: "Father wants to use these two great-grandsons to contain the eldest brother and the third brother?" ”

"I can't talk about containment, I just want to tell some people that he sees what they do."

The old twelve breathed a sigh and hugged Zhou Yiyun's arm and didn't let go: "Brother Eleven, you help your younger brother think of ideas, I don't want to offend the third brother, they are all my own brothers, I don't want to be implicated." ”

Zhou Yiyun pulled his arm out, but the kid didn't break free because he was too hard, so he could only ask kindly: "Is the Ministry of Rites busy now?" ”

"Hmph," the old twelve automatically let go, sat down and poured tea, and said a little angrily: "At the beginning, they respected me as the twelfth prince plus the prime minister, and after the sixth brother sent Shang Rui, they also looked up to me, and now they ...... It's all wind-swept guys. He ran over and hugged him tightly: "Brother Eleven helps my brother vent his anger." ”

"Don't let others be the masters of your affairs, those old people who eat dry food should let them go home and eat themselves, now my father still attaches importance to you, you have to strive for performance, the establishment of diplomatic relations is proposed by you, you will go out more when other countries have affairs, it is better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles." The tenth and twelfth looked at Zhou Yiyun at this moment, and they were a little stunned: "Brother Ten, you look so serious and majestic." ”

"Well, you want me to save some snacks, why should I do that?"

Zhou Yici cleared his throat and lowered his voice: "Last time, my father and emperor gathered all the royal brothers in order to make the fifth brother the crown prince, do you say that this time it is also ...... Eleven, what do you think? ”

"Brother Eleven, I support you."

Zhou Yiyun shook his head: "Who can control the thoughts of my father, we can only listen to it, watch it and make a sound now." "The status of the king has always been unquestionable, and the majesty of the emperor cannot be challenged.

Liu Wu kept looking out, and he didn't see the father and son for dinner, Zhou Yiyun just put the three small ones in the realm of strangers, he couldn't let go of his heart, what the composition of those two princes was, he didn't understand. As soon as Zhou Yiyun entered the house, he saw Liu Fu sliding at the door, and grinned: "Su'er, you miss your grandfather, Li Jin moved the tenth brother's reward to the main house, let's go back to the room." ”

Liu Wu, who was led back to the room, asked, "Have you raised the grade of the tenth brother?" ”

Zhou Yiyun shook his head: "No, the tenth brother forced it into the master." ”

"It's all this hour, let's pick up the kids."

"They didn't come back?" Zhou Yiyun felt sorry for a few babies: "It's much stronger than my grandfather at the beginning, no matter which brother I saw, I didn't expect them to be able to stay, tomorrow they will definitely enter the palace to see their father, so don't pick it up." ”

The Baobao brothers met at the gate of the palace the next day, Xiaoxiao had a small wooden sword hanging from his waist, and he circled around his brother to show off, flipped through the bag, Bubu held two books in his arms, and pouted: "The eldest brother and the second brother left your lovely brother just for these books?" ”

Bubu tilted his head proudly and praised: "What are the few books, even if the books of the fourth uncle family can be read in a lifetime, they can't understand the literary literacy in the books, there are treasures!" ”

"Third brother, go and see the fourth uncle." Bao Bao interrupts the younger brothers to show off to each other.

Xiaoxiao turned his head and saw a person smiling at him, approaching and saluting: "Zhou Xiao greets the fourth uncle...... The other party didn't reply, and glanced at the second brother who pointed to the book, and praised with a smile: "The fourth uncle is really a jade tree in the wind, a rich scholar and five cars, fresh and handsome." ”

"Well, can you make poetry?"

The smiling face stiffened halfway, and patted his head: "Fourth uncle, at first glance, you are a talent who can become a poet in seven steps, and the smiling poem is just a child's joke in front of you, so don't let the smile be embarrassed in front of the elders." ”

Zhou Yiwen picked up Xiaoxiao and said to Lao Jiu: "These children are better than Lao Eleven." ”

At this time, Lao Eleven was lying on the side of the door and looking in, Zhou Yifeng looked at the two elder brothers and asked, "Brother Eleven, are they the fourth brother and the ninth brother?" ”

"Haven't you seen that?" Zhou Yifeng was puzzled, this younger brother can't be brainy, has he even forgotten his two "demon" brothers?

"Brother Eleven, when they were in the palace, my brother was still young, how can I remember if I have seen it."

"How's your learning?" Zhou Yiyun decided to find out the bottom for his younger brother.

"In the past, the master said that it needs to be improved."

"What about martial arts?"

"The eleventh sister-in-law said that I am also a martial arts wizard, but I was delayed."

Zhou Yiyun nodded with satisfaction: "Go and meet the fourth brother and the ninth brother, you have to meet them, they will like you." The old twelve shook his head and went out to salute, and the old eleven smiled that he had his younger brother in front of him to pave the way, and his life would be better in front of the two elder brothers in the future.
