41, Eighth Master Mingzhi

No matter how Li Wei didn't understand or was unwilling, Ergege was quickly picked up from the quilt and dressed up and carried out, she just simply put on a jacket and sent her out of the small courtyard. The jade bottle jumped to his feet in a hurry, grabbed a big cloak and threw it out, "Gege! It's still snowing! ”

In the dim night ahead, under a few oil-paper umbrellas held high, Su Peisheng and the nurse holding Ergege soon walked away without a shadow.

The rest of the time, Li Wei couldn't sleep anymore. The jade bottle looked at the sky and persuaded: "Gege, it's still early, you go back and sleep for a while." ”

"No, pack up, I'm up." After Li Wei wrapped her cloak and returned to the house, she washed and changed her clothes, and sat in the house as a lookout after breakfast. waited until it was dark, and Zhao Quanbao ran over panting and said, "I'm back, I'm back!" ”

She stood up, hugged her cloak, and went out the door to greet her.

Who knew that Ergege was wrapped in a small cloak that he had never seen before, and he was wearing a hood on his head, and he was sleeping sweetly in the nurse's arms. Su Peisheng accompanied the ones who sent them back, and there were a few people carrying boxes behind him.

Li Wei took her daughter down, went back to the house and put her on the bed, and was just about to undress her so that she could sleep well, but who knew that she woke up, and when she woke up, she hugged her and kept saying that it was fun today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince liked her very much, and kept holding her Yunyun, and said that she was hungry, and she ate snacks in the palace, and did not eat the main meal, which would make her stomach grow hungry.

While Ergege was holding her small golden bowl and burying her head in eating, Su Peisheng was next door and was explaining to the stunned Li Wei that the long string of boxes that followed was a divine horse.

It's all rewarded by the prince.

After the boxes were opened, the room full of golden light and treasure was about to dazzle people's eyes.

But seriously...... Li Wei doesn't want it very much......

Because they were prepared by the prince for the two Gege who died young, all kinds of girls like small hydrangeas, small fans, scarves, sachets, golden horses, jade rabbits and so on. There is also a small bow and arrow, a small saddle and a small leather whip, saying that the prince has always wanted to take Xiao Gege to ride a horse, so he is a little anxious to prepare.

What does the fourth elder brother mean, since it was rewarded by the prince, it is better to take it out and use it for Ergege. It's all good things, the prince's character, and the regulations are higher than him.

…… That's unlucky, isn't it?

The small cloak that Er Gege wore when he came back was made by the prince for Xiao Gege, who died young, and there were also two boxes of various clothes, boots, and hair accessories.

After Su Peisheng finished speaking, he saw that Li Gege's face was not very good, and he didn't want to use it for Ergege? After thinking about it, he added a sentence of friendship: "The fourth master will come over later." ”

When he came, he must have seen that these things were laid out, not in boxes.

Li Wei had no choice, so she asked the nurse to put the toys in Ergege's house first, and wait for a few days when the sun is good, and then give them to Ergege to play with. Clothes should also be sun-dried to see if there are any wormhole stains.

The next day, the mule cart from Yuqing Palace came to pick up Ergege again. Throughout the New Year's banquet, the mule cart never sets, and the two grids are brought into the palace. Li Wei heard Ergege say that most of her were with the crown princess, and the prince could come over to see her at most during dinner. Rewards are available every day.

Da Gege was a little embarrassed. On the first day, I only brought the reward given by the crown princess, and I didn't mention picking her up later.

Li Wei also felt embarrassed, but it was wrong to do anything at this time. Just don't do anything, pretend not to know. Seeing that she was worried, Mama Liu specially inquired about Da Gege and told her, "Da Gege's grandmothers and nurses around her are all counted, although Da Gege knows about Ergege's entry into the palace, but they all tell Da Gege that this is Ergege doing his filial piety for the fourth elder brother and Fujin, and Da Gege won't let her go because he wants to stay at home to take care of Fujin." Looking at Da Gege's appearance, he didn't take it to heart. ”

Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and Mama Liu said with a smile: "I heard that Da Gege cried the night he came back, saying that he would not enter the palace again." The rules in the palace are strict, and it is common for children to be afraid. Ergege is young, and he doesn't know how to be scared so he doesn't make noise. ”

"What about Sister Song?" She asked.

Mama Liu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled nonchalantly: "Gege, what do you care about her?" In this way, if Gege really doesn't want to go, the slave and maid will go and see? She paused and said, "Gege, this favorite thing is the most inexplicable, and there is no way to let it." On the first day, Da Gege and Ergege went together, and the next day he only took Ergege, which can only be said to be Ergege's fate for nobles. Otherwise, it won't take much to get in the car and bring more children. ”

It's still Mama Liu who can see it clearly. Although her words were cruel, there was no way to make that pampering true. What's more, this is Ergegede's favor, and Li Wei has no intention of letting her daughter go out at all. I'm just worried that she's too jealous. She has tasted enough of being jealous, and she doesn't want Ergege to even have a carefree childhood, and face the ugliness of **shijie.

In the evening, she discussed with Jade Bottle whether to ask a few more younger girls to come in and be Ergege's playmates. When she was a child, her friends were classmates, kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high school, and they were all a bunch of peers at all times. Even if you pass through, on the street where the Li family is located, the little girls from each family have grown up together.

Now it seems that it is a bit unscientific to let Ergege and Da Gege be good friends, the things around them are too complicated, even if they were born in the same house, but until now, the two have not met a few times, let alone play together.

The jade bottle said: "Gege is right, so let's go, I'll ask Mama Zhuang tomorrow to see if I can pick a few little girls to come in." ”

After the New Year, the emperor went to fight Geldan with his soldiers again. This time I didn't bring a single brother, the emperor himself took someone and went, I heard that he had found out where Geldan was, and this time he would definitely be able to capture it in one fell swoop.

The fourth elder brother took over from the prince before to build a mansion for his younger brothers, and the emperor said that the fourth elder brother did a good job and officially handed over this matter to him.

Now even the fourth elder brother can't deceive himself anymore, but the emperor does seem to have some ...... for the crown prince Subtle......

In the affairs of the court, it seems that the emperor also unknowingly washed away the traces of the crown prince's imprisonment. Before the emperor set out on the expedition this time, I heard that he also had a long talk with the prince, and it was a repeated reward, as if he attached importance to the prince as always. But this subtlety is felt by the brothers.

The third elder brother and the fifth elder brother are gradually estranged from the prince. And the prince no longer often appears in the upper study, and the scene of teaching them to write and draw a bow with the little brother's hand has never appeared again.

On the New Year, the prince also talked with his younger brothers, as soon as the emperor left, the prince closed the palace door, and the fold was also sent to the front of the battle by a fast horse once every ten days, and then the fast horse and the military newspaper were sent back together after being approved by the emperor.

The fourth elder brother began to worry about whether the proximity to the prince some time ago would make the emperor dissatisfied. I had to redouble my efforts to do the errand in hand, but I felt more and more afraid in my heart. It's not that he can't guess what the emperor meant, it's just that the crown prince has become an adult, and the emperor can't avoid this matter. Slowly, the ministers of the DPRK and China will also make excerpts and invite the prince to participate in political affairs. After all, you can't let the prince 'study' all the time.

The crown prince can't win the trust of the emperor, he sits in this position, and some people say that he is good or bad, even if he thinks badly or not, he will be said to be mediocre. Moreover, if the emperor's suspicions increase, it is difficult for him to believe that the prince will be willing to tie his hands.

The fourth elder brother doesn't want to be implicated in the fight between the emperor and the crown prince, but he is the senior brother in the top ranking, and this matter is not something he can't be involved if he doesn't want to.

These days, in addition to staring at the mansions of the seventh and eighth elder brothers outside during the day, the fourth elder brother sits in the study and meditates at night.

If the emperor wants to further expand the authority of the crown prince, it is most likely that he will not do it himself, but provoke several elder brothers who have become adults. At the top of the list are the eldest brother, the third elder brother and him. The fifth elder brother almost put the three words 'I am mediocre' on his head, and the seventh elder brother also pretended to be stupid.

It's the eighth elder brother...... As soon as he enters, will he obey the emperor's hints and force the palace on the prince?

The fourth elder brother took out a piece of paper, wrote down a few words, and drew a circle on the word 'eight'. Then he brought the piece of paper close to the candle and watched it burn to ashes.

In May, it was rumored that Geldan committed suicide with medicine, and the emperor returned to the court with a victorious class.

The prince breathed a sigh of relief, and his steps when he went to the military aircraft department were easier than ever. When he arrived at the military plane, he first said that the emperor had won a great victory, and Geldan was afraid of the emperor's divine power and had committed suicide by taking poison.

Although the ministers had already learned the news, they were all overjoyed at this time, and there was a rare laughter in the military aircraft department.

"The emperor will be back soon. Let's hurry up and do the things assigned by the emperor, a few adults, these things should have a result today. The fold has been sent back, and it has the emperor's Zhu approval on it. The prince said.

With the emperor's Zhu Pi, the rest of the matter is simple. In fact, these two things are just that the peasants in the two places cannot withstand natural disasters and corrupt officials, and they are just the opposite. Although there are only a dozen people, they have long been **, but from the moment the report came out, several ministers still did not dare to draw conclusions easily, and they refused to open their mouths after pushing back and forth.

Now that the emperor has decided, the officials who provoked the popular uprising will let two kill one. They also hurriedly wrote good words for these two people, the natural crime of killing was extremely evil.

The prince has been sitting on it, sipping tea slowly. The ministers of military aircraft prepared it, circulated it and sent it to his desk. The prince is not busy looking at it, so he asks all the adults first, have they all seen it? The ministers replied that they had seen it, and the prince looked at it, and after looking at the tea carefully, he smiled and said, "It's okay to look at it alone." After that, he took out the prince's small seal, added the seal, and then handed it back to the ministers, who copied it and kept it for the record, and then sent it down.

sat like this for a day, and the prince also pressed the seal for a day, and these folds with the prince's seal were his political deeds.

It was only in the evening that after the prince returned to Yuqing Palace and took off the crown prince's crown, he breathed a long sigh of relief as if he had unloaded a thousand catties of burden.

After the emperor returned to the palace, the fourth elder brother went to ask An to see the prince, and he was surprised to find that he had only seen him for a few months, and the prince had lost a lot of weight. The peacock blue regular clothes looked a little empty on his body, and the prince's face was a kind of weak pale.

He hurried over: "Say hello to the prince." ”

"Fourth," the prince smiled, and Zhanzhu beckoned him to come closer.

The fourth elder brother used to follow the prince's side, and when he looked closer, the prince looked tired, and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "His Royal Highness the prince seems to have lost some weight?" ”

The prince smiled gently and said, "Bitter summer." In the summer, the dining room still brings stews and steamed bowls, and I have no appetite at first glance. If you want to eat something light, they are a string of big truths. ”

The people waiting around the prince were all given by the emperor, and every move was taken care of by the emperor in accordance with the emperor's order. When the fourth elder brother heard this, he remembered his grandmother and the chief eunuch when he was a child, he frowned, and said, "That...... Your Highness might as well go somewhere else and change your taste. ”

"Where to change? Who would dare to give me something that I shouldn't eat? When the time comes, I will pull a bunch of people to play the board at the door, annoying. The prince waved his hand and sighed lightly: "I, don't hurt anyone." ”

The fourth elder brother swallowed the rest of the words.

The two of them walked slowly and were about to arrive at the Wuying Palace, and the prince reminded the fourth elder brother of one thing in a whisper: "There is something, you have probably heard of it." Mingxiang's Fujin was stabbed, and this matter has been handed to the emperor, and the emperor Ama is furious and is handling it strictly. It is estimated that I will have to ask someone to go to the Ming Prime Minister's Mansion to have a look...... Don't touch it. ”

It's taking sides.

The fourth elder brother was beating wildly in his heart when he heard this, and quickly bowed his head and thanked the prince for his reminder.

In the Wuying Palace, in addition to the emperor, the eldest elder brother, the third elder brother, the fifth elder brother, and the seventh elder brother have all arrived. The prince and the fourth elder brother came in one after the other, and the prince pleaded guilty first: "I ran into the fourth brother halfway just now, and I didn't pay attention to talking for a while, but I made the eldest brother and younger brothers wait for a long time." ”

The eldest brother just glanced at it and didn't say much.

As soon as the fourth elder brother stood in front of the fifth elder brother, the emperor said, "I know that you and the fourth elder brother are good, come and sit down." ”

The fourth elder brother saw that the prince's smile remained unchanged, but when he sat down, he owed slightly. He also took a wrong half step back, and the fifth elder brother glanced at him sympathetically, bowed his head and loaded wood.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Brother Ba. The fourth elder brother swept around, and swept outside the hall gate, and the fifth elder brother coughed lightly to remind him. The emperor said above: "What is the fourth child looking for?" Looking around? ”

The brothers of the first hall all laughed and teased him.

The fourth elder brother was laughed at by the brothers, relieved the embarrassment of being named by the emperor, and said: "The son can't see the eighth brother, I wonder if he is stumbling somewhere." ”

The laughter in the hall stagnated, and the fourth elder brother knew that something was wrong, so his head hung directly to his chest.

The emperor at the top said slowly: "Oh, you came late, I was watching an excerpt with them just now." Something disgusting happened to Nalan Mingzhu's family, and I asked the eighth child to go over and take a look, and then come back to learn from me and you. ”

Old Eight...... Are you really ......

The fourth elder brother smiled and stood back. The eldest elder brother stood under the crown prince, and since the fourth elder brother mentioned the eighth elder brother just now, he had been lowering his eyes, and he couldn't see his expression clearly. The smile on the third elder brother's face was like brushing a layer of slurry, and it didn't change for a long time. The fifth elder brother smiled innocently.

The fourth elder brother also talked with everyone to accompany the emperor, laughing when he should laugh, and listening when he should listen. The cicadas outside the hall screamed louder and louder. The fourth elder brother seemed to be listening to the sound of cicadas, and suddenly a burst of rapid and brisk footsteps came into the hall, and the eighth elder brother walked in quickly with a flushed face, knelt in the hall, and said loudly: "Huang Ama, my son is back." ”

The emperor smiled happily when he saw the eighth elder brother, raised his hand and said, "Get up, tell me and your brothers, how is it over there?" ”

The eighth elder brother said calmly: "Lord Nalan is grateful for the emperor's kindness, and I thank the emperor for his supreme grace......"

Seeing the eighth elder brother standing in the hall without fear, the fourth elder brother seemed to find out for the first time that this younger brother had grown up.

The eldest brother remembered the words of the eighth elder brother when he talked to the eighth elder brother last time.

He said, "Big brother, I understand. I also know that compared to the crown prince, I can't compare to him. It's not that I don't understand, in case Huang Ama just wants to find someone to practice for the prince, I will jump out in vain. ”

"Big brother, you watched me grow up since I was a child, you even saw the appearance of diapers when I was a child, you often say that I am like your brother. Me too, in my heart, you are like my Amma. I'm not afraid to tell you, I want to try to take a look. Even if the bait thrown down by the emperor is poisonous, I will bite it. ”

“…… Because if I don't follow the emperor's wishes, I won't get anything. ”

Saying this, the two eyes of the eighth elder brother were as bright as a hungry wolf preparing to pounce on his prey.

The eldest brother said in his heart: Eighth brother, if you jump out now, the future will not be up to you. I hope you won't regret it when it comes to Zuihou.

Thinking so, the eldest elder brother looked at the emperor who was sitting on the top and was looking at the eighth elder brother with loving eyes. When they were young, the emperor was their Amma. But when they grow up, he will be the emperor.

He was brave, but he didn't dare to make friends with Wenchen at all. What about the Prince? When he was a child, he didn't lose to those who pulled a bow and rode a horse to set up a formation, but now except for the occasional whip in the palace, he rarely rides a horse.

Eighth, what will happen to you? ――

The author has something to say: see you tomorrow
