Mama Su Mala reacted to this, stretched out her hand to the emperor, Xuan Ye smiled and held her and said: "Mama came to see the emperor's grandmother in the future, remember to ...... for me" Before the words were finished, she suddenly became alert to someone in front of the door, and looked up, but seeing Yinxiang stunned there, Xuan Ye knew what he had just said to Mama, and the thirteenth elder brother must have heard everything with such a daze look.

"Mama, rest, I'll come back to see you tomorrow." Xuan Ye said this to Mama gently, and the old man made a little noise, which was already indescribable. Xuan Ye walked out with his hands in his hands, passed by his son, and said, "You come with me." ”

On the side of the female dependents, I heard that the emperor took the thirteenth elder brother to the garden for a walk, and the fourteenth Fujin knew that the emperor had arrived at the elder brother's office, and blamed himself again and again: "If Yinyu knows, it should be blamed on me, the emperor is really, and he won't say a word when he comes." ”

Thirteen Fujin smiled: "I can't blame you, you are raising a fetus now, what does he dare to do to you?" ”

Wan Yan said: "Yes, he is so busy that he is not in front of him for three days, and I am still looking forward to him talking about me." My sister-in-law has to come to accompany me from time to time, so we have something to say. ”

"I watched the concubines take turns to see you and see Mama, you are making a commotion here, I will only cause trouble for you here." Thirteen Fujin smiled and said, "There is no one else here today, so I should come." ”

Wan Yan did not hide it, and said a little impatiently: "Those people are here, where are they looking at me and looking at Mama, they are just doing something to show the top." He frowned again, and pulled his sister-in-law and said, "Especially Bafujin, she stared at my stomach, her eyes were stunned, and she felt a chill down her spine." Jiufujin and they came to shout for a while, I didn't care, it was quiet when I left, but Bafujin stared at my stomach as soon as she came, I didn't dare to look at her more, she left, I still thought about it, and my heart fluttered with fright. ”

The two of them talked about the affairs of the Eighth Elder Brother's Mansion, and they talked about it for a while, and no one cared about what the emperor did when he brought the Thirteenth Elder Brother into the Imperial Garden.

On this side, Xuan Ye and Yinxiang walked to the depths of the garden one after the other, in the Mid-Autumn Festival, there was no scene of Xiao Suo withering, there was still lush greenery in the garden, and there were cultivated chrysanthemums competing to open, and the smell was wafting with the sweetness of osmanthus, the emperor's footsteps gradually slowed down, smelling the fragrance of flowers, his tense expression couldn't help relaxing, he glanced back at Yinxiang, and asked, "Didn't you bring my little granddaughter into the palace?" ”

Yinxiang responded: "The little girl fell asleep when she went out, and she was afraid that if she was hugged out and the wind blows, E-niang would blame her." ”

Xuan Ye smiled: "Wen Ke and Dun Ke asked me to say goodbye a few days ago, and also mentioned your daughter, so that I asked you to bring it into the palace from time to time to take a look, and it is distressing to be an aunt." ”

Yinxiang responded: "Erchen remembered, E-Niang also said, take more children out to see the world, now a person is bored at home, afraid of spoiling." ”

"The female doll is afraid of being spoiled, so it's right to raise it with golden branches and jade leaves." Xuan Ye said, glancing at his son, "I still remember what you looked like when you were a child, and you gave birth to my granddaughter." ”

Yinxiang was thin-skinned and smiled shyly, but when he remembered what had just happened, his heart was suddenly startled again, his expression was cramped, and he didn't know how to deal with himself.

And the emperor caught him in this thought, and asked, "What did you just hear?" ”

Yinxiang instinctively shook his head, and nodded when he felt inappropriate, but immediately shook his head vigorously, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said: "Huang Ama, my son didn't hear it on purpose, although he knew that you were inside, but he was originally afraid that there would be some movement to alarm Mama, so he walked so lightly, and in the future, the ministers will remember that they have to walk with sound everywhere." ”

Xuan Ye said: "This is not necessarily, you just follow your own heart." ”

"Yes...... But. Yinxiang always felt that he was not as smart as the fourth brother, and he was not as clever as the fourteenth brother, if they were them, they would definitely be able to think of how to deal with their father at this moment, but he was completely passive and was taken away by his father.

"If I want you to keep this secret for the rest of your life, even if the new monarch ascends the throne a hundred years later, you can't tell him, can you do it?" Xuan Ye is very direct, the matter has come to this point, there is really no need to detour, his expression is serious, his tone is firm, but he does not have the momentum to threaten and intimidate his son, he raised his hand to signal Yinxiang to get up, and said calmly, "You think about it now, if you can't do it, say you can't do it, don't break your promise in the future, let me down, and embarrass yourself." ”

Yinxiang pursed his lips, lowered his head and had no idea for a while, Xuan Ye sighed lightly, and said step by step: "Do you think the prince is qualified to inherit the country?" ”

"Huang Ama, can the retainer tell the truth?" Yinxiang said.

"Say whatever you want, today is an offense against me, and you will be forgiven." Xuan Ye said, stretched out his hand and patted his son's shoulder and said, "At this moment, there is only father and son, Ama listens to you." ”

Yinxiang nodded, and responded to his father without thinking: "I'm afraid that among the brothers, no one thinks the prince is good, but the prince is the prince, we can't be respectful, Eniang often teaches us to strictly abide by respect and humility, not to be shorter than others or to be subservient, so that we can always be clear-headed, know who we are, and know what we are doing." Erchen looked down on the prince in his heart, but he never thought about who should replace the prince. ”

Xuan Ye listened to the freshness and asked, "Your fourth brother is not successful?" ”

Yinxiang shook his head: "It's not that it can't be done, it's that Erchen didn't think about it, anyway, follow the fourth brother on an errand, let's do a good job for Huang Ama and make profits for the people of the court." ”

"Your mind is very simple."

"E-niang said, put your mind right, and do everything openly."

Xuan Ye's lips hooked up a smile, and Lan Qi's heart was at ease when he mentioned it, thinking that although the children were born with different personalities, their early upbringing would really affect them for a lifetime.

"Huang Ama." Yinxiang spoke again, finally daring to face Fang Cai's matter, and asked his father, "Are you really going to change the prince?" You really want to set up a fourth brother to be a new ......"

Xuan Ye motioned for him to be silent and said, "These words shouldn't come out of your mouth. ”

Yinxiang panicked slightly, and was about to bend his knees again, but his father held his arm and said, "You haven't answered me yet, can you keep this secret." He smiled, "I can tell you one more thing, after the prince comes down, there will be no more prince, Ama chose your fourth brother, but no one knows what the result will be until the end, you brothers who can afford the country, who is worthy of being the emperor, and you too." ”

"The sons are incompetent." Yinxiang hurriedly waved his hand, "Huang Ama, Erchen doesn't have this ability, and he never thought about it." ”

"What about your fourth brother?" The Emperor asked coldly.

"The fourth brother is stronger than the prince, stronger than me, and better than the brothers." Yinxiang was very frank, and after rushing out, he felt that he had caused trouble for his brother, and he was even more confused.

Xuan Ye patted his son's thick shoulders and said lightly: "Since you think that the prince is not successful, and you think that your fourth brother can do it, then follow the fourth brother well and support him well, he is a little unsociable, it is rare to be close to you, I don't expect other brothers to be by his side, but you follow him, I am quite relieved." ”

Yinxiang frowned, still didn't quite understand, but he didn't expect Huang Ama to say it clearly to himself: "You can't tell others about this, but we don't have to avoid anything between us, Huang Ama didn't choose your fourth brother to replace the prince, but chose to train him to inherit the country." But if he lives up to Amma's wishes and is compared to other brothers, Huang Ama will still focus on the country and the capable. ”

"Erchen seems to understand." Yinxiang's heart gradually became clear.

"There is only one throne, but there are countless royal bloodlines." Xuan Ye solemnly said to his son, "It doesn't matter who is the new monarch or who is the heir, the important things of the Qing Dynasty can be passed on, and the people want an emperor who really thinks about them, not a mediocre person who is staring at the throne, but after sitting on it, he can't carry the world." ”

Yinxiang's eyes were full of righteousness, and he nodded heavily: "Erchen understands." ”

Xuan Ye said: "Then support your fourth brother well, help him watch the road ahead, don't be confused for a while, and do things that are as rebellious as others." You have to care about the world, not the dragon chair. He paused and said, "As for not being able to tell your fourth brother, Ama doesn't want your fourth brother to be complacent and enterprising from now on, thinking that you don't have to do anything, the country is his." ”

Yinxiang defended his brother: "The fourth brother will not be like this. But when he thought about it, Huang Ama's words were not unreasonable, and for himself, it would be good if he hadn't heard it at all.

"Can you keep it a secret?" Xuan Ye asked again.

"Yes!" Yinxiang finally agreed to his father proudly, with a straight face, "Huang Ama, Erchen originally planned to follow the fourth brother for the rest of his life, but now he just continues to do this, don't you say?" ”

Xuan Ye smiled with relief: "It's good that you can figure it out." It also fulfilled Amma's wish, I and you are father and son, and father and son should be able to talk about everything. ”

Yinxiang finally smiled and said honestly: "If my son wants to understand, he won't be annoyed in his heart, anyway, there will be no difference between the future and the present." It's just that he was curious, and asked more, "Does E-Niang know about this?" ”

Xuan Ye shook his head, but in the end, he still kept a thought, and responded: "Your mother doesn't know, such an important matter, she will only cause trouble if she knows." ”

Yinxiang nodded: "Don't worry, Huang Ama can rest assured, the son promised you, and he will definitely do it." ”

Xuan Ye nodded lightly and said nothing with a smile. In fact, after saying so many things, he kept asking himself in his heart whether he could trust Thirteen, but what he was thinking at the moment was that even if there was only one thing in this life, he and his son could simply be father and son, and with the trust between father and son that would never be shaken, his life would be considered complete.

What did the father and son say that day, no one knows, the emperor has always loved a few young sons, and it is not uncommon to take the thirteenth elder brother for a walk in the imperial garden, Yinxiang thought about it a lot when he went back that day, and then as usual, no one saw the clue, that is, to the fourth brother, he was as calm as ever.

But Su Mala's life has come to an end after all, not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lan Qi hurried to the elder brother in the middle of the night, Mama was already hanging her last breath, Lan Qi held Mama's hand, always felt that she had something to say, so she instructed the people below: "Go and invite the emperor to come up." ”
