Chapter 807: The Eighth Master Returns to Beijing
The prince talked for a while, just to remind them that the eighth master is growing too fast now, and it is already a threat.
The eldest brother and the fourth master are not stupid, so they can naturally hear the provocation in these words. The two occasionally picked up a sentence or two, but did not agree with the prince.
Now it is obvious that Kangxi wants to cultivate the eighth master, are they going to do it? Besides, what good is it for them to pull the eighth master down? It's nothing more than doing *** a favor.
Coming out of Yuqing Palace, the fourth master and the eldest brother glanced at each other, revealing a tacit look.
"Will the eldest brother leave the palace? I'm going to say hello to Eniang, and I'll go to Yonghe Palace first. The fourth master said.
"I'm going to see E-Niang too." Big Brother Road.
Yonghe Palace and Chuxiu Palace were not in the same direction, so the two parted ways.
In Yuqing Palace, the prince sat in the study and pondered alone.
Just called the eldest brother and the fourth brother, he also wanted to test their attitude. Especially the attitude of the big brother! When the eighth grows up, it is not good for him, the prince, but is it good for the boss? Although Concubine Hui has the grace of nurturing the eighth. But when it comes to interests, what is this nurturing grace?
Besides, Concubine Hui has not been good to Concubine Liang over the years. How much friendship can the eighth child have for Concubine Hui in his heart? Although the fourth child has always shown an indisputable appearance, he has worked hard in the court in the past few years. Unconsciously, it left a lot of weight in Huang Ama's heart. He has always had a good relationship with Lao Ba, and now that Lao Ba is so reused, will he support him secretly!
Everyone thought that the fourth child was standing behind him. Only he knew in his heart that the fourth child was actually loyal to Huang Ama! It's just because he is the crown prince of Huang Amari, the fourth child has been helping him with things!
And the fourth child also has his own principles, and he is not willing to help him do everything. And he has always been defensive of the fourth child, and he didn't tell him all the most private things.
Speaking of which, everyone is a brother, but now that they are all adults and have entered the court on errands, who knows what they think in their hearts!
Now that Huang Ama is still in his prime, he, the crown prince, doesn't know how long he will be in charge. These brothers have no covetousness for the crown prince?
Thinking of this, the crown prince couldn't help frowning. It's getting harder and harder for him to be a prince!
Early in the morning of the second day, the prince led the eldest brother, the third master, the fourth master, the fifth master, the seventh master, the ninth master, and the tenth master out of Beijing to welcome the eighth master.
It's a good day, and the morning sun brings warmth, dispelling the chill of early autumn. Thinking about the victory of the army today makes people feel more and more happy.
In addition to the princes, some ministers also went out of the city to greet them. A group of people stood outside the city gate, but it was also very imposing.
The sun gradually rose higher and higher, and the sound of horses' hooves finally came not far away, and everyone couldn't help but be shocked, the army had arrived!
The leader is naturally the eighth master. Dressed in silver armor and riding on a war horse, he looks very majestic.
He obviously did not expect the battle to be so large, and after seeing the people at the gates of the city, the horse under his crotch stopped.
"Eighth brother, Lone represents Huang Ama to welcome you back to Beijing!" The prince said loudly.
The eighth master hurriedly got off the horse and walked quickly to the prince to salute, "Brother see His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"Eighth brother, please get up quickly." The prince held him up and said with a smile: "You have made a great contribution this time!" Huang Ama was overjoyed! ”
"Don't dare to be, it's all everyone's credit." Eight Masters said.
"That's it! Don't be modest! The prince patted him on the shoulder and said very affectionately: "It's your credit to you!" The credit of others will not be less! ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an overreputation." The eighth master smiled.
"Congratulations to the eighth brother on his triumphant return!" The eldest brother just came over at this time.
As soon as the eighth master saw that the brothers were coming, he was busy greeting everyone.
For a while, everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Let's go, let's go back to the palace. Huang Ama is still waiting in the Qianqing Palace to reward you! The prince laughed.
The eighth master has no opinion. But I was still a little surprised by today's situation. Although he won the battle, is it an ulterior purpose to exaggerate his merits alone?
No matter what doubts he had in his heart, he still returned to the palace surrounded by everyone. After entering the city, the eighth master let Chen Guo go home. He also specially instructed Chen Guo to tell Mao Tongtong and wait for him to come back and have lunch together.
"The eighth brother is not afraid of the emperor's meal? Then your side Fujin will have to wait in vain! The prince joked on the side.
"Second brother!" The eighth master was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect to be heard by the prince.
"Okay, if Huang Ama really wants to stay for dinner for a while, Lone will say that there are still people in your house who are worried about it, and you can't accompany Huang Ama to eat!" The prince laughed.
The eighth master's face couldn't help but turn red, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't laugh at your brother!" The younger brother has been away from Beijing for more than two months, and he really misses the food in the house. Even if you drink porridge, it is comfortable. ”
It's an exaggeration, but it's true. The princes have all been on the battlefield. I can be regarded as empathetic to the eighth master's feelings, so I didn't tease him anymore.
When he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, the eighth master had to make a report. Kangxi nodded frequently when he heard it, which was naturally a compliment.
Regarding the reward, Kangxi did not elaborate, probably preparing to leave it in the morning tomorrow to announce it. But the degree of his happiness made everyone think that the eighth master's reward this time would not be less.
"Well, you've worked hard for more than two months. Go back and rest today, I won't leave you to eat. At the end, Kangxi said this.
"Poof." The prince laughed from the sidelines.
Kangxi couldn't help but look at it, looking a little puzzled, but the eighth master blushed all of a sudden. The eldest brother and the fourth master also laughed on the side.
"What's going on? What did I just say? Kangxi became more and more puzzled.
The crown prince smiled and told what had just happened at the city gate, and said, "Huang Ama, fortunately you said that you would not keep food, otherwise the retainer would have to help the eighth brother find an excuse!" ”
Kangxi looked at the eighth master's red face, and couldn't help laughing, and said, "I can understand this!" Then you should go back quickly, so as not to wait in the house in a hurry. I remember what it was called, it was Mao, right? It's a good one! No wonder you're worried. ”
"Erchen, Erchen, thank Huang Ama." What else can the eighth master say at this time? could only respond with a red face and retreat from the Qianqing Palace.
Today's prince's close attitude made him strange, and he couldn't help but wonder if Kangxi had revealed in front of the prince what the reward was to be given. But even if the reward is rich, it won't make the prince have this attitude, right? After two months away from Beijing, the eighth master suddenly felt that his brain was a little insufficient!
Although on the battlefield there is also a need for stratagem. But compared to these hearts in the capital, it's still much simpler!
