Prince Heng [Qing wear]

The imperial physician originally thought that it was just the common summer heat combined with the child's sensitivity and thoughtfulness, which led to the fifth elder brother's coma, but unexpectedly, the fifth elder brother developed a high fever in the middle of the night.

The imperial physician didn't dare to specialize, so he hurriedly reported it to the Lord Long Live.

Kangxi soon arrived and stayed with the fifth elder brother for a whole night. During this period, he had to hide from the pregnant Concubine Yi, which was very hard work.

The fifth elder brother burned for three full days. Although Kangxi didn't stop courting for ten days like when the prince had acne, he always came to watch as soon as he came out.The prince and all the elder brothers have also come to visit the fifth elder brother to express their brotherhood, but except for the prince and the fourth elder brother, the other elder brothers did not stay for long.

After going back and forth, the prince developed a good impression of this fourth brother.Firstly, they are connected with the fifth younger brother, so they are more intimate than others; secondly, the prince feels that although this younger brother was raised by the imperial concubine, he is rarely ambitious and down-to-earth. Opportunities can be helpful; thirdly, apart from himself and the fifth younger brother, this fourth brother is rare in terms of status, but he is not born to the imperial concubine, and the relationship with the concubine De is not good, no Embarrassing or not, it happens to be a loner.

The fourth elder brother also showed [-]% enthusiasm for the olive branch extended by the prince.Although he is the adopted son of the imperial concubine, but the imperial concubine already has her own child, the Tong Jia family may not be able to give him much help; as for the empress de concubine, Wu Ya's family does not have any outstanding figures, let alone the empress now has Xiao Liu And Qi Gege, I'm afraid they can't take care of him either.The second brother of the prince is orthodox. If you follow him, even if you don't get great credit, you won't make any big mistakes.With credit, he can look better when he leaves the palace to open the mansion.

On the night of the third day, Fifth Prince's fever finally gradually eased.The imperial physicians on the side finally breathed a sigh of relief, and don't have to worry about the head falling to the ground.

"Khan Ama—" Fifth Prince called out weakly.

"Xiao Wu is awake, but why is there any discomfort?" Kangxi held Brother Wu's hand, "Where's the imperial doctor? Come and have a look."

Physician Wang stepped forward and carefully took the pulse of the fifth elder brother, then gently touched the fifth elder brother's head, got up and reported to the emperor: "If you go back to the Lord Long Live, the fifth elder brother has lost his fever, and now his pulse is stable. , it should be all right, just two more days of cultivation will be fine."

"That's good. If something happens to Xiaowu again this time, you can go to Ninggu Pagoda to accompany Imperial Physician Zhang."

"Yes, yes, the servant must take good care of Elder Brother." Imperial Physician Wang wiped a sweat in his heart, and Imperial Physician Zhang had already exiled his whole family because of Fifth Elder Brother's illness this time.If it hadn't been for the empress dowager to pray for the fifth elder brother's illness and reduce the murder, the heads of the whole family would have been lost long ago.

The fifth elder brother just woke up, still a little confused: "Khan Ama, I had a long, long dream." Although I don't remember anything, I still feel very sad.

Kangxi's voice has never been so gentle: "It's okay, Ama Khan is here, and Ama Khan will watch over Xiaowu. You are recovering from a serious illness, so you can sleep for a while after taking the medicine."

"Hmm. Khan, please stay with me for a while longer." The fifth elder brother gently held Kangxi's big hand with his small hand, and fell into a deep sleep.

Shang Shufang welcomed the fifth elder brother again, but this time, no master dared to embarrass him anymore, and no master dared to teach him.The previous chief master of the Shangshufang was still a member of the royal family, because he offended the fifth elder brother, he was driven home by the Long Live Lord for a reason.The newly appointed Chief Master of the Shangshufang was trembling, wishing he could confess to the fifth elder brother who caused such a big incident on the first day of school.Speaking of it, his predecessor did nothing wrong, but this world is the world of Aixinjueluo's family, and how can these remote clansmen compare to their serious sons and grandsons.That's all, from now on, I'll just hold the Fifth Brother.

In the Qianqing Palace, Kangxi put down the imperial brush in his hand, and said to the few ministers who were on duty: "You guys also take a rest, and follow me to see those brats. I don't know how they are learning." Nothing major happened in the day, so he should have gotten used to Shang's study, this child is always worrying.

Several people walked into Shang's study room, Kangxi asked Liang Jiugong not to be reported.

In Shang's study room, the teacher who lectures is teaching.

The master said: "Today we will talk about "The Analects of Confucius·Yanghuo". The master said: Those who hate purple will seize Zhuzhu, those who hate Zheng's sound will disrupt the elegant music, and those who hate sharp mouth will overwhelm the state. Third elder brother, tell me what you think. understanding of this sentence."

"Yinzhi replied," the third elder brother bowed to the master, "Confucius said: I hate using purple instead of red, I hate using Zheng Guo's vocal music to disturb the elegant music, and I hate using clever teeth to subvert Guo Jia. So the Qing Dynasty To rule the Han people, we must use the rules of the Han people to tame them, educate them, and let the people willingly accept the rule of the Manchus."

Xiaosan just said some arrogant words, Kangxi commented in his heart.

The master didn't comment, and asked the fourth elder brother: "The master said: Listen to the Tao and talk about it, and the virtue is abandoned. What's the explanation?"

The fourth elder brother thought for a while, and replied respectfully: "Yinzhen replied. Hearsay, it has existed since ancient times. Some people not only hearsay, but also inquire about other people's privacy, and then spread the word everywhere, taking it as the joy of life, it is really despicable People. Therefore, those who are superior must distinguish between right and wrong, and do not believe in rumors. If you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you listen to it, you will be dark."

Kangxi nodded, and Xiaosi's answer was acceptable.

The master nodded and looked at the fifth elder brother: "It's just that women and villains are difficult to raise, why not?"

"Well, it's difficult for women and villains to raise. Women have to experience the pain of giving birth, and they are close to death. Villains refer to weak people, young children, widows, widows, orphans, lonely, and disabled people are all included. This sentence means that the lives of women and weak people in this world are very difficult, so as the strong, we must nurture and protect them." The fifth elder brother pondered for a while, glanced at Shi Yangui who was sitting beside him, and continued. , "It's like Khan Ama took back Taiwan because of the brutality of the Zheng family. That's why Khan Ama appointed General Shi Lang as the admiral of the Fujian Navy and sent troops to attack Taiwan."

There was silence in Shang's study room, everyone looked at Fifth Prince without saying a word for a long time.

What Brother Wu said has nothing to do with Confucius' original intention.But women and villains are difficult to raise, and there are two sentences behind this, if they are close, they will not be inferior, and if they are far away, they will complain.Confucius meant that it is difficult for women and villains to cultivate righteousness, so if you get too close to them, you will easily break the rules; if you are too far away, you will easily lead to resentment.

However, the original intention of the emperor to let the elder brothers read is to let the elder brothers distinguish right from wrong.Although the fifth elder brother's understanding of Confucius' words deviated from the original intention of the sage, it also revealed the fifth elder brother's benevolence to the weak, and Mr. Shangshufang didn't have much to say.

In the end, the Sinology master had no choice but to say, "Even though my elder brother's words contain great benevolence, the sentence is not clear, and we still need to work hard."

"Yes, Yinqi would like to follow the instructions of the master." The fifth elder brother sighed with his mouth pouting, and sat down obediently.

Kangxi and others walked out of Shangshu's room, but no one knew they had been there.

Suddenly, Kangxi said to the person beside him: "What do you think of what Xiao Wu said just now?"

"The humble minister returns to the emperor's words." The man bowed to Kangxi, "The humble minister is bold, and I personally think that the heart of the fifth elder brother is precious."

Kangxi smiled: "Well, you go back." Then he told Liang Jiugong: "You take the ox horn bow that Kangxi had for 20 years, and give it to Xiaowu."

Liang Jiugong should be: "Hey." That bow was used by the emperor, it seems that the fifth elder brother is still favored.

Elder brother's place, fifth elder brother's yard.

"Slave, I would like to thank my elder brother for your kind words." Shi Yangui knelt down to the fifth elder brother and said respectfully.

The fifth elder brother quickly helped Shi Yangui up: "Yangui, you don't have to be so polite. What happened last time was that I caused you to be punished, and I should explain it to you. Besides, I didn't expect that at that time, Ah Khan Ma would stand outside the door to watch us in class, and I just did it unintentionally. It's already late, if you don't leave, you will be imprisoned, go home quickly."

"Yes, thank you fifth elder brother for your understanding." Shi Yangui cupped his hands.This elder brother is different from the other elder brothers, but he only needs to take care of him, and there is no need to do other things.

The fifth elder brother looked at Shi Yangui's leaving back, and always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if following him, he could find the memory lost in the dream and the person who was more important than his life.

In fact, what he wants to talk about today is not Taiwan, but Yangzhou, which is the Yangzhou beacon on May 25 in the first year of Hongguang.But his intuition told him that in this Forbidden City, this matter cannot be said!

"Master, are you going to the Palace of Mercy to have dinner, or just order dinner now?" The little eunuch beside him interrupted Fifth Prince's meditation.

"I'm going to accompany Emoge Erji for dinner, let's go to the Palace of Mercy." Since he moved into Elder Brother's house after a serious illness, he hasn't greeted Emo Geerji for a long time, "You go and call the fourth brother , let him go with me."

"Hey, this servant is going now."

Charity Palace.

Fourth elder brother: "Yinzhen pays respects to the emperor's grandmother."

The fifth elder brother: "Amu Gulang greets Emoge Eji."

"Okay, okay." The queen mother smiled and waved to the two of them, "Good boys, come here and let the imperial grandmother take a good look. You two are too thin. If the servants in the dining room of the elder brother do not suit your appetite, then Come to the emperor's grandmother for a change. Especially Xiao Wu, you are too skinny."

"Eh, Ge Erji, I'm growing taller, so I naturally look thinner." The fifth elder brother said with a smile, "Besides, I'm not fat. Didn't you notice that I've grown a lot taller?"

"It's taller, it's as tall as your fourth brother." The queen mother looked at the two brothers with a smile, "Hurry up, eat quickly, today's dishes are all your favorites! Xiao Si also eat more, you guys There is an age difference between the two, Xiao Wu is almost as tall as you."

Fifth elder brother: "Fourth brother, I eat more than you, hee hee."

The fourth elder brother rolled his eyes indecently: "Little Wu, stop making trouble, and eat with peace of mind."

The Empress Dowager looked at the two children lovingly. Ever since Xiao Wu moved to Elder Brother's house, the Charity Palace has not been this lively for a long time.Once the palace is quiet, it looks deserted.There should still be a child, this palace is so lively.

Yikun Palace, inner hall.

Concubine Yi lay lazily on the couch, waiting for Kangxi's arrival.

"Has everyone been arranged?" Yi Fei asked.

"If you want to go back to your mother, our people have already been arranged." The big palace lady beside me replied.

"Arrange what!" Kangxi suddenly walked in and asked.

"Long live~" Concubine Yi stood up calmly, smiling like a flower.

"Okay, stop saluting. Is this child good or not? Did he make trouble with you?" Kangxi sat on the couch with his arms around Concubine Yi's waist, stroking her round belly.

"The child is very good, much better than Xiao Wu at that time, and I don't worry about it at all." Concubine Yi smiled, "Long live God redeemed, I think Xiao Wu is used to eating and drinking with the empress dowager, and is used to being kind." Meals in the Palace of Ren. The concubine was worried that elder brother’s dining room would not be well served, so she specially asked the empress dowager for a cook to put in elder brother’s place. Long live~”

"Okay, I get it, it's just a cook. This is your kind mother's heart, and I won't blame you. But Xiao Wu is an elder brother, so you should not be too arrogant and indulge him, and you must know how to control it."

Concubine Yi pretended to be aggrieved and said: "I know that what Long Live Lord does is for the good of the children. Long Live Lord is a strict father's shell on the outside, but he is still a loving father on the inside. I don't know how to teach children, so I just I can rely on Long Live Lord to work harder."

Kangxi pinched Concubine Yi's small face, and scolded with a smile: "Okay, little girl, it seems that I dote on you too much, and I have become more and more courageous, even daring to make arrangements for I."

Concubine Yi retorted: "Does the Lord spoil me?"

Kangxi gently pushed Concubine Yi down: "Then I will pamper you well today."

The two laughed for a while, then took a break.

In the west of the city, Ta La's Mansion.

"Brother, you're back." A bouncing little girl ran towards Shi Yangui.

Shi Yangui hugged the little girl: "Xiaoru, did you miss brother today?"

"Yes, yes, yes," the little girl kissed Shi Yangui's face, "Xiao Ru misses brother so much. Brother, he, that stinky boy, Ta Lashi Ru Ru, has stained my painting again. Brother Help me teach him a lesson."

"Okay, brother will help you teach him a lesson. Xiao Ru, can you answer brother a question first?" Shi Yangui looked at the little girl squarely, "It's just that women and villains are difficult to raise, what does Xiao Ru think it should mean?"

"It's only difficult for girls and villains, raising them," the little girl shook her head, "Of course it's to protect girls and children. Brother, what's wrong with you, didn't I answer this question in the study before. Saint Compassion, this sentence should definitely be read like this. Brother, please don’t refute me.”

Shi Yangui thought it was true, and shook his head helplessly: "Okay, brother, I understand. I'm going to say hello to my aunt, do you want Xiaoru to come together?"

"Yes, I want to see Er Niang too." The little girl jumped off Shi Yangui and led the way.

Shi Yangui looked at this little cousin, her answer was almost the same as that of the fifth elder brother, is this a coincidence?Xiaoru has been staying in his Tala's mansion, rarely going out, and has nothing to do with the fifth elder brother.It must be just a coincidence!He told himself silently, but his heart was full of uncertainty.

The author has something to say:

1. Dunfu is the character of Zhang Ying, a scholar.

2. Only women and villains are difficult to raise. If they are close, they will not be inferior, and if they are far away, they will complain.

Translation: Confucius said: "Women and villains, it is difficult for them to cultivate their righteousness, it is difficult to maintain their body, mind, nature, and life, so when getting along with them, you must be far and near, because if you are too close, you will be rude and break the rules; Too far away will easily lead to resentment, which is not conducive to the inheritance of Confucianism.

There are many interpretations of this sentence. The fifth elder brother's words are the personal opinion of the stupid author. Sentences are arbitrarily broken (sentence reading) and have no academic basis.

3. Shi Lang is a man with mixed praise and criticism. Novels are artistic creations. Please don't link them with historical facts.

4. On May 25th, the first year of Hongguang, the city of Yangzhou was broken. After the Qing army occupied Yangzhou, they slaughtered and looted, and sealed the sword for ten days. It was called "Ten Days in Yangzhou" in history.

5. The Ciren Palace was made up. Before Kangxi built the palace for him, the Empress Dowager did not find accurate information to indicate the name of the palace at that time.
