On the third day after Xuan Ye returned to Beijing, the elder brothers also returned to Beijing smoothly, and went to the palaces to meet their mothers as soon as possible.

Yinqi was full of joy, and ran to Yikun Palace when he came out of Qianqing Palace, not wanting to delay at all.

"Erchen see Eniang." As soon as Yinqi saw Chunxi, he knelt down excitedly to say goodbye. She was startled by her sudden rush into the house, and was drinking tea at the time, and when she saw him, the tea bowl fell to the ground with a shake of her hand.

Seeing that he had disturbed his mother, Yinqi immediately restrained his smile and reached out to pick up the debris on the ground, but was stopped by Chunxi.

"Honey, let people clean up the mess in this place, this palace wants to talk to his son well." Chunxi pulled Yinqi to the north couch and sat down, looked carefully from top to bottom, and repeatedly checked whether Yinqi was injured. Seeing that he was intact and his spirit was very good, Chun Xi was a little relieved. just looked at his son's originally fair face, which had been tormented by the wind and sand and scorching sun, and felt distressed again.

After going out for so many days, people have lost a lot of weight. It's definitely not as good as being in the palace, where there are people waiting for you to eat and drink.

"Hurry up and get a basin of water, and then take the snow dew prepared by the palace in winter, which is the most beautiful and nourishing effect. My son has suffered, and he must recover as soon as possible with snow dew. Chun Xi hurriedly ordered Mu Hui, who was standing outside the door, and her fingers swept over Yinqi's face, and they all began to tremble.

Yinqi hurriedly grabbed his mother's hand and said happily: "E-niang, don't worry, Erchen is fine, but he hurt some skin and is a little darker." I'll be able to recuperate soon. ”

"It's to get better soon, if the two beautiful girls in your house see you like this, they won't turn you away." Chun Xi couldn't help but smile and said funny.

"Where can I be?" Yinqi lowered his head and laughed along.

The mother and son were happy, and suddenly Yinqi remembered something, and grabbed Chunxi and asked, "Eniang, has Fleur given birth?" ”

"Gave birth, gave birth to a big fat boy for you. On the sixth day of the fourth month, he was born from time to time. Born white and tender, as if you came out of the same mold. When Chunxi talked about his grandson, he was even more happy in his heart: "Yesterday, your emperor Ama also came over, just to see him." We also discussed what name to give him, thinking that this is your first one, and it is the first time to be Amma, so it is natural for you to choose the name yourself. ”

"Okay, well, Erchen must think about it, read the ancient books, and choose a good name for my son." When Yinqi heard that Fu Hui gave birth to a son for herself, she was so happy that she couldn't help but shout: "Eniang, let Erchen take a look at him." ”

"Fifth elder brother, don't worry." Miyi had already heard the mother and son talking about the child outside, so she went to the west side hall and picked up the baby.

Yinqi saw Miyi coming in, still holding a child in his arms, so he stood up excitedly, and ran to Miyi in three or two steps, but he didn't dare to pick up the child.

"Fifth elder brother, come, hug him." Miyi carefully handed the baby into Yinqi's hands, and taught him how to hold it so as not to hurt the child.

"I remember when your eleventh brother was just born, you didn't want to hug him, saying that he was crumpled and not good-looking, and he hated him very much." Looking at Yinqi's helpless appearance, Chunxi only felt funny. His own son, even if he looks ugly, he likes it. What's more, people are not ugly dolls in the first place.

"Who? Who dislikes me? Yinyu's voice came from the door, he heard that Yinqi was back, and hurried back to Yikun Palace after school.

Chun Xi sneered, pointed at Yinqi and said, "Go and ask your fifth brother." ”

Yinyu entered the door and saw Yinqi holding a doll in his arms, so he stood on tiptoe to look, and instantly forgot that he still had to ask a question.

Yinqi saw that Yinyu was so difficult, so he lowered his body, and for convenience, he simply held the child and sat on the couch beside him. Yinyu was very happy, so it was much more convenient for him to look at the babbling little doll.

"The fifth brother returned victoriously, do you miss your fourth sister's craftsmanship?" Jun Yao came in with a few little eunuchs, said hello to Chun Xi, and smiled at Yin Qi.

"Fourth sister prepared something delicious for me?" Yinqi looked up and saw that several little eunuchs behind Junyao were holding lacquer plates, and there were all kinds of delicacies on the plates, which seemed to be his favorite ones from a distance.

Junyao stepped forward, hugged the doll in Yinqi's arms, and then said to Yinqi and Yinyu: "I know that you are gluttonous, and you specially cook it, hurry up and taste it." ”

Yinqi and Yinyu couldn't help but approach the table full of food, and halfway through, they remembered that Chunxi was still there, so they both turned back and pulled Chunxi to sit down together.

As soon as I sat down here, before I moved my chopsticks, I heard a voice from outside: "Eighth Elder Brother, Ninth Elder Brother, and Tenth Elder Brother are here." ”

"Yo, it's going to be lively today, I'm afraid the dishes on my table are going to see the bottom." Jun Yao said with a smile, and when she looked down, she saw the doll in her arms smiling at her, and she was drooling, so she couldn't help but tease again: "Look at you, your teeth haven't grown, and you start to be greedy." ”

"Something delicious?" As soon as I entered the door, I heard Junyao's words, and Yinyu asked with a smile.

"Well, over there." Jun Yao raised her chin.

Yinyu took Yinqi and Yinqi to the table together, said hello to Yinqi, and shouted to Yinqi together: "Fifth brother" and then sat down to enjoy the food with them.

No one can resist the temptation of food, Jun Yao also handed the doll in her arms to Miyi, and then found a stool to sit down.

"Family, it's been a long time since I've eaten like this, so it's time to drink some wine." As soon as Jun Yao sat down, she couldn't help but propose.

"Yes, the fifth brother came back from outside, the wind and dust, we have to catch the wind, hurry up and prepare wine, I want to have a drink with the fifth brother." Yinyu also chimed in.

Mu Hui glanced at Chunxi, and when she acquiesced, she went out and let someone bring in a few jars of good wine.

This joy was enjoyed until dusk, and the people at the table were all drunk crookedly, and their mouths kept shouting: "Come again." ”

"Help them to rest." Chunxi shook her head and looked at this group of children, but she couldn't help but smile on her lips.

As soon as the night fell, Chunxi was reclining on the couch and pretending to sleep, when he heard Mi Yi come in and respond: "Fang Fujin and Shu Fujin are here." ”

Chun Xi's slightly closed eyes opened a slit, and she said, "Hurry up and invite in, Yinqi has been back for a day, and they haven't seen their husbands yet." After all, I couldn't help it, and I asked for someone from the palace. ”

"Where is the mother, the Fujin people are just missing the fifth elder brother." Before leaving, Mi Yi smiled at Chunxi.

Compared with the liveliness of Yikun Palace, the atmosphere in Yonghe Palace is extremely cold.

Lan Xin waited for a day and a night, but she never saw Yinzhen go to Yonghe Palace to ask for peace. She persuaded her master several times, but Lan Xin still had to wait, she didn't believe that her son was so ruthless. I didn't see her for months, and I didn't come to see her.

Yinzhen woke up in a daze, jumped out of bed and tiptoed to the outside of his mother's bedroom, but saw Lan Xin standing at the door waiting in a daze.

Yinzhen stopped, turned his head and saw his nurse coming up, so he pulled her and asked in a low voice: "E-niang is so late, are you waiting for Huang Ama?" ”

"It's not." The nurse shook her head and said, "I'm waiting for the fourth elder brother." ”

"Fourth brother? Why didn't he come? I heard E-Niang say that he returned to Beijing today, and he specially prepared a lot of things that the fourth brother likes. Yinzhen wondered.

The nurse reluctantly said that she didn't know.

Yinzhen was very sad when she saw Lan Xin waiting like this, so she said to the nurse: "Do you know where the fourth brother lives now?" You take me there. ”

The nurse immediately said no, and Yinzhen threatened: "Then I'll tell E-Niang, saying that you don't take good care of me and speak ill-mouthed, E-Niang will definitely not let you go when the time comes." ”

The nurse looked at the seven or eight-year-old master in front of her, and she had no choice but to agree.

Two people came together and went to the Qianxi No. 5 Institute, one big and one small, walking on the empty and lonely long street.

After a few words, the two of them successfully entered Yinzhen's dormitory, but they stood outside the door, embarrassed and did not dare to move forward.

"Hmm...... Ah......" There was a woman's wheezing sound inside, Yinzhen didn't understand, but the nurse was clear.

"Fourteenth elder brother, don't go in, the fourth elder brother is busy, let's go back first." Maybe a little later, he will come to Yonghe Palace by himself. The nurse hugged Yinzhen and whispered in his ear, and she was afraid of alarming the people inside, so she tiptoed away with Yinzhen in her arms.

Yinzhen didn't know why, but when he heard the nurse say this, he thought that Yinzhen might be busy with business, so he didn't come to visit Eniang for a long time, so he followed the nurse back with confidence.

After going back, Yinzhen was coaxed to sleep again. But Lan Xin waited for Yinzhen all night under the moonlight, and she didn't fall asleep until dawn.

In the evening of the next day, I saw Yinzhen, who was belated. He was as indifferent as ever, as if the Lan Xin in front of him was not his mother, but an unmasked stranger.

Although Yinzhen was very dissatisfied with his fourth brother's attitude, when he remembered that he was still busy with business in the middle of the night, he forgave him again. I kept saying in my heart: Well, he must be too busy, so his face is not good, and he doesn't want to talk. It's the same when I'm tired of playing. E-niang has been coaxing. So, he can't be blamed.

It wasn't until a few years later that Yinzhen experienced the affairs of men and women, and when he recalled what happened that night, he became angry. But he also understands that his fourth brother has always been indifferent to Eniang and him, and has never had half a good color.

Yinzhen's growth experience is destined to be different between their brothers. It wasn't until one day that Yinzhen saw that the fourth brother was closer to the thirteenth brother Yinxiang than himself, and he realized that Yinzhen was not an indifferent person. He was just indifferent to his closest family, indifferent to him and Eniang.

It was also from that time that Yinzhen began to resent the fourth brother, began to alienate him, and treated him with the same attitude.
