Lan Qi brought the palace maid to bring snacks, and saw her son kneeling to take over his father's long sword, Xuan Ye's sentence "General of the Qing Dynasty" made her care for a moment, but it soon passed, and she just came up to give her son a whole placket and said: "You received the reward of Huang Ama, the placket is still crooked, you, when will you grow up?" ”

Yinyu said proudly: "I have already grown up, and the imperial grandmother will choose Fujin for me and the thirteenth brother when I turn around." While bypassing his mother and stepping in front of his father, he said, "Amma, you also tell Eniang, Eniang always treats Erchen as a child, and Erchen's clothes are neatly held in front of the door, Eniang just doesn't feel at ease, and it doesn't please her eyes." ”

Xuan Ye scolded with a smile: "I don't know the blessing in the blessing, and if you don't have your mother to worry about you, you don't know where you are." ”

Yin Yu said with a smile: "Keerchen is a man who stands up to the sky, and he can't always be a mother-in-law." People outside say that the son and the thirteenth brother are not filial, and they don't often come back to see after leaving Yonghe Palace, we are thinking, after doing something in the future, E-Niang is also happy to see us, and now if we often run back to nest in the arms of our mother, then what do we do when we move to Brother, Amma, you have to be considerate of us. ”

Among the brothers and sisters, except for a few princesses who can laugh and be coquettish in front of the emperor, most of the princes are respectful when they see their fathers, only Fourteen has always been straightforward, and he can say whatever he wants, Xuan Ye has never blushed when he spoils him, which fuels this temper more and more. Now that he is sensible and more restrained, he can say that he is happy and excited, but he will still ignore it, Lan Qi can't help but blame him: "You still have younger brothers, be careful that they can also learn that you are so unruly." ”

But the next time the father and son will still be like this, no matter how much Lan Qi says, it is useless, but Xuan Ye said to her in private: "He is also presumptuous in front of you and me, the brothers are all good, our sons are all smart, you should worry less." ”

On that day, the news that the fourteenth elder brother received the emperor's admiration for the sword soon spread. Everyone inside and outside the palace knows that the fourteenth elder brother is the youngest child that the emperor and concubine have been looking forward to after the Yonghe Palace lost the sixth elder brother, the sixth elder brother's name is Yinzuo, and the weight of the national Zuo is on the child, although the child has not grown up, but the expectations that can be pressed on him may be naturally passed on to the fourteenth elder brother.

At that time, Empress Xiaoyi was still there, no one thought that the sick person would really die young, the Yonghe Palace at that time was different from now, some people felt that maybe at that time, at least the two sons born to Concubine De, the emperor valued the youngest son in the Yonghe Palace more.

But now, more and more elder brothers are entering the court, and the emperor is not as partial to which one he used to be, he must be calculated, the eldest brother has a lot of merits, that is the innate advantage given to him by age, and the young ones, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, and the eighth elder brother have gradually revealed their own posture. But at this time, the emperor gave the sword to the fourteenth elder brother who had not yet changed the matter, and asked him to be the general of the future Qing Dynasty, and he also went with this matter.

Being a general means gaining military power, looking at the princes today, although there are many who have gone on expeditions, but except for the eldest brother, even the prince has no military power.

Military power controls the lifeblood of a country, which is also one of the reasons why the eldest brother is still pretentious, although he can't lead a monstrous army like Prince Yu and Prince Gong, it is more than enough to compare with a few brothers. After the news of this incident spread that day, the eighth elder brother received a message from the eldest elder brother the next day, saying that the fourteenth elder brother was intimate with him, and asked him to take close care of the fourteenth brother.

On the day when the fourteenth elder brother went to Gubeikou with the eighth elder brother, because Concubine De was not at ease, Yinzhen and Yinxiang were sent to the city gate together. When they were about to separate, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother came in a hurry, followed by a tall white horse that no one sat on, and the delicate saddle was installed on the horse's back. ”

The eighth elder brother watched silently, since the fight between the old nine and the tenth and the thirteenth elder brother, the fourteenth has been ignoring them, and they are also stubborn and unwilling to bow their heads, but the eighth elder brother can't let them not get along, after a few persuasions, he found this opportunity, Yinyu likes the high-headed horse, let them send his favorite things, be the elder brother's bow, fourteen should be able to go down the steps.

Although the child looked at the handsome and extraordinary big white horse in the hands of the ninth elder brother, his eyes lit up, but when he saw the fourth brother and the thirteenth brother on the side, he made up his mind and said: "I have to go a long way, I am afraid that this horse will not be satisfied, the ninth brother's heart brother has been accepted, and when I and the starling brother come back, I will go to your house to tame this horse, and the horse that has not been tamed will not dare to go far." ”

The eighth elder brother glanced at the ninth elder brother, although Yinyu was a little embarrassed, he still smiled and said okay, after that, he couldn't delay the time, and the prince and his party set off in a majestic way.

Several elder brothers went back to the city, Yinzhen and Yinxiang also had to enter the palace to return to Eniang, seeing the nine elder brothers and ten elder brothers riding their horses, the big white horse followed behind, dusty and heroic, it did take a lot of thought, Yinzhen said to the thirteenth brother: "Regardless of whether Yinyu collects this horse or not, the fourth brother will find you a good horse when he turns around, and it is good to go out on patrol with him, it is indeed more decent." ”

The thirteenth elder brother smiled: "E-Niang just said the day before yesterday that she would give me silver and let the minions outside buy a good horse, E-Niang and the fourth brother care too much about me, and the fourteenth is indeed good with the starling brother to get this opportunity, but if I want to go, it is just a matter of one sentence, I really don't want to join in the fun, I just want to follow the fourth brother to the north and south." ”

Yin Zhen patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Where the fourth brother will go in the future, I will definitely take you." ”

After that, the brothers hurried back to the Forbidden City and went to Yonghe Palace to report their safety to their mother.

Although Yin Zhen already knew from Yuxi's mouth that his mother had done it, but at this moment, he was still a little hesitant, Lan Qi smiled and said to him: "Your Emperor Ama said, there are one and two, since you have accepted it, they will give it to you in the future, and the big truth on face has to be said, but this kind of thing has been repeatedly banned in the past dynasties, and Huang Ama also knows it in his heart." In the future, as long as you don't collect money and do things that violate your conscience and harm the court, you can take care of the silver yourself, keep it if you want to, and if you don't want to keep it, you will quietly send it to the emperor yourself. You have to understand for yourself that if you do something bad after receiving money, these are completely different things, if something goes wrong, E-Niang will not have the face to protect you in front of the emperor. ”

Yin Zhen nodded again and again when he heard this, and asked for a while: "Do you want to ask Huang Ama again?" ”

Lan Qi said: "It's the same whether you say it or not, anyway, you won't often be alone together, and if you have the opportunity to talk alone in the future, you can bring it up again." ”

Speaking kung fu, someone from Qixiang Palace came to tell her, saying that the concubine is not very good, Lan Qi sighed for a long time, while pitying the concubine being tortured by the sick body, and on the other hand, she didn't want her to drag on the New Year, otherwise although she is gone, the palace will still have to hold the festival, I am afraid that the aftermath will be a little sluggish, no matter how poor the concubine is, she has raised several princes for the emperor for so many years, and she doesn't want her to be too bleak after her death.

Yin Zhen waited for Eniang to go out together, Lan Qi wanted to sit in a sedan chair, and seeing the eunuchs pressing the sedan chair, she suddenly asked her son: "Where is the prince's eldest grandson, can you go to express condolences again?" ”

"I haven't brought it up again in the past few days."

"You guys...... Lan Qi wanted to speak and stopped, and hesitated again and again before asking, "The family is good, how are the Li Song Gege and them getting along with Yuxi now?" ”

Yin Zhen said: "It's always been very good, but the family has lost Yuxi." ”

Lan Qi looked at her son, frowning slightly, as if mother and son were connected, Yin Zhen couldn't help asking, "What do you want to say?" ”

She settled down and said: "You must not like to listen to what E-Niang said, E-Niang is not in a hurry and does not urge you at that time, even if outsiders say irresponsible things, I don't care, after all, you were only teenagers at that time, and I always feel that there is still a lot of time." But son, the years have passed, and now it is not the same as it used to be, and you should understand that children are also very important to you. But don't do to others what you don't want, E-Niang is worried about your heirs on the one hand, and distressed Yuxi on the other hand, that's all, I'm all I say, you can do it yourself. ”

The mother took a sedan chair to Qixiang Palace, and suddenly snowflakes fell in the sky, and the servants of Yonghe Palace chased out to give Sibeile an umbrella, and he took it himself and went outside.

E-Niang's words he understands that if he has that wish, he can't help but be thoughtful about everything, the country is to be passed on from generation to generation, and the heirs are the guarantee of inheritance. He lost his child who died young, and the prince's eldest brother raised him well until he was ten years old. In addition, seeing the sixth brother being poisoned in front of his eyes, no one can guess what will happen in the future, Eniang's worries are not unreasonable, but he also cares about his affection for Yuxi, is ambition and affection destined to not be able to have both?

Walking and walking, I met the group of people in front of me stopped on the side of the road, at this moment the snowflakes have been pulling cotton wool and fluttering, but the women and children did not hold umbrellas, and when the fourth elder brother walked over, he curtfell in the snow and saluted, the noble lady bowed to the ground and said: "The concubine is the wife of the governor of Huguang, and she was ordered to enter the palace to ask Concubine Hui for peace." ”

Yin Zhen thought about it and said with a smile: "Yes, Lord Nian was promoted to the governor of Huguang this year, is this coming to Beijing to report on his work?" ”

Mrs. Nian hurriedly said: "In addition to the adult's debriefing, the emperor gave the dog Tangyao a marriage, and the granddaughter of Lord Mingzhu was married to the dog, and Concubine Hui gave a generous gift, and the concubine entered the palace to thank her." ”

"Madame got up quickly, her clothes were wet in the snow." Yinzhen was polite, turned around and asked the eunuch behind him to give their umbrella to Mrs. Nian, only to see that Mrs. Nian had a seven or eight-year-old girl next to her, she stared at Yinzhen with a pair of beautiful eyes, and suddenly stretched out her hand to point at him, with a bright smile like a flower, and said crisply, "I remember you." ”
