Yinzhen: Become the favorite of the group in the Qing Dynasty where the brothers were reborn

Cheng Qiangong

Yinzhen was talking to the queen.

The Ministry of Revenue was not very busy today, so he just went over to take a look and quickly returned to the palace.

When he arrived at Chengqian Palace, the queen was looking at the list of concubines.

There will be another general election next year, and as the ruler of the six palaces, she will have a harder time.

Seeing Yinzhen coming, the queen's eyes lit up, and she quickly waved him over, "Zhen'er, come quickly."

"What's wrong, Ene?" Yinzhen walked quickly forward, and as soon as he sat down, several portraits were stuffed into his hands.

The queen smiled happily. She pointed at the portraits and asked Yinzhen to look at them, saying, "Take a look at them. What do they look like?"

While asking Yinzhen to look at the portrait carefully, she also looked at Yinzhen seriously.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. In the blink of an eye, my son Zhen has grown up so much.

She still remembered what it felt like when she first held the soft little baby in her arms. She remembered the panic and satisfaction clearly.

Now, her Zhen'er has grown into a fourth prince who can stand on his own. In two years, he will leave the palace and start a family.

Thinking of this, the queen felt sad, yet also somewhat expectant.

She thought that although her body was still a little weak compared to others, after several years of recuperation, she had gotten much better and it would not be a problem for her to live another 10 or 20 years.

If Zhen'er got married and had children, she would become a nanny and could help her son and daughter-in-law take care of their grandchildren and enjoy the happiness of family life.

The more she thought about it, the more she looked forward to it.

"How is it? Is there any princess that catches your eye?"

Seeing that Yinzhen had finished looking through the portraits, the Queen spoke with anticipation.

These were all carefully selected by her. She thought that if she could decide on a wife for Zhen'er as soon as possible, the two of them would have some time to get along with each other, so that they wouldn't end up in a blind marriage.

Yinzhen knew his mother's feelings and felt helpless.

Looking at the first few portraits in his hand, Yinzhen said with a smile: "Ene, Zhen'er is still young. You see, the second and third brothers of the crown prince don't have wives yet. Why are you worrying about your son?"

Let's shift our focus first. He is the fourth child in the family and his older brothers are all unmarried, so how could it be his turn?

Then he said, "Besides, Ene, Khan Ama said that we younger brothers have to be like the eldest brother and can only get married after the age of 18. It's a bit too early for you to choose a wife for me now."

Hearing this, the Queen was puzzled, "After the age of eighteen?"

She was extremely puzzled. Although the eldest prince got married at the age of nineteen, it didn't mean that all the princes had to be like him, right?

She frowned, looked at Yinzhen, and asked, "Zhen'er, please don't fool your mother. Did your Khan Ama really say that?"

Thinking about the fact that the prince is already seventeen years old but still has no wife, the queen became somewhat skeptical.

Yinzhen nodded calmly, responding without hesitation, "Really, Ene, that's what Khan Ama said."

"He also said that he had someone do some research and found that getting married after the age of 18 is beneficial to our physical and mental health. If we get married too early, our bodies will not develop properly and it will be difficult to raise the children we give birth to."

Yinzhen was very serious. He mixed together various research results of later generations and told them to his own mother, but he attributed all of them to his Khan Ama's name.

The queen listened to his words and began to ponder.

She thought of the concubines in the palace, such as Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui, who had many children who died young. It seemed that few of them were able to raise the children they gave birth to when they were young.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. The queen couldn't help but grab Yinzhen's hand, her face pale, "Your father-in-law is right!"

This is really no small matter.

She herself had experienced the pain of losing a daughter and had seen the sorrow of others losing sons and daughters, so she did not want her son to suffer the same.

Her eyes fell on the portraits, and the queen quickly put them away, saying, "I won't look at them anymore. I'll choose a wife for you in a few years."

For now, let’s just forget it.

It is better to believe it than not to believe it. The queen is unwilling to take that chance.

Anyway, Zhen'er also said that the Crown Prince and the Third Prince don't have wives yet, so it's not his turn to worry for the time being.

After thinking for a while, the queen reminded Yinzhen again, "Zhen'er, listen to your Khan Ama. Your Khan Ama is well-informed and his words are very reasonable."

The more the queen thought about it, the more upset she felt. After a moment's silence, she reached out and rubbed Yinzhen's head, "Do your job well, and follow your father-in-law in everything."

Yinzhen nodded obediently, his whole body expressing the word "well-behaved".

"Don't worry, my son loves working the most and doesn't like anything else."

He was almost about to raise his hand to swear, and his eyes were so determined that even the queen laughed.

"Alright, alright. I trust you and I'm at ease with you."

The only people she was worried about were others.

As the queen, she can control the harem and not send anyone to Zhen'er, but the foreign ministers have treacherous minds, so she may not care so much. What if some ministers with bad intentions send women to her Zhen'er?

Why ... ...

The queen sighed inwardly again before changing the subject, "By the way, Zhen'er, your sister-in-law will be coming to the capital soon, but will you and the third prince go to pick her up together?"

Thinking of the pregnant First Wife, the Queen's eyes softened a little.

The eldest prince and his wife also called her "Empress Dowager", and the child she gave birth to would also be called "Empress Mama". When the queen thought of this, she felt that time passed very quickly.

When Yinzhen was asked by her, his thoughts turned to his eldest brother who was far away in Shengjing. He said with some amusement: "My eldest brother said that only my third brother and I are the most stable. He only trusts the two of us to go pick up my eldest sister-in-law."

"Ene, you don't know that my eldest brother even mentioned the names in the letter, saying that the second brother, the crown prince, must not be allowed to pick up my eldest sister-in-law."

The more Yinzhen spoke, the more he wanted to laugh. Although he was only going outside the capital to pick up his eldest sister-in-law's carriage and not going there for fun, his eldest brother had specifically refused him, so his second brother, the Crown Prince, really wanted to get involved.

"Really?" The queen was curious. She really thought it was interesting to see these princes getting along with each other. They were good brothers, but they quarreled every day. They could be said to have a bad relationship, but they did have deep feelings for each other.

Especially the Crown Prince and the eldest prince, these two have been quarreling since they were young and have never had a single day of harmonious coexistence, but their brotherhood can be seen everywhere.

Yinzhen also complained, "Big brother just loves to provoke second brother. If he hadn't told second brother not to go, second brother might not have gone with us."

But once those words came out, it was definitely a provocation.

His second brother, the prince, said: "Damn the boss, the more he doesn't let me go, the more I want to go!"

"Otherwise, you really think I'm afraid of him!"
