It was the first time for the fourth elder brother to hear the emperor's father say that. Today, this sentence refreshed his cognition of the past 20 years.

"Is it because the sons are unfilial? Let you worry about it."

Kangxi shook his head, "Don't mention this. The older you are, the more ideas you have, and the more I can't control it. These are inevitable things. Don't mention this. It's meaningless to mention this."

After he finished speaking, he stood up, and the fourth elder brother hurried up to help him, and the two of them went into the house together.

Tian Mi's old cat, Hongyun, has not eaten or drank for the past few days. Tian Mi is worried that the cat's lifespan is coming to an end.

Speaking of which, Hongyun is a very long-lived cat. The luster of his fur becomes dimmed as he gets older. He even looks down on everything like an old man. When he was lying outside, a bird landed in front of him. It doesn't pounce on birds like it did in previous years.

Tian Mi put her hand on the cat's head and rubbed it. Seeing that his father and son came in together and did not stand up, she said to them both with some sadness: "I'm afraid Hongyun is old, and he hasn't eaten for two days. .”

The key is that I didn't have a good appetite some time ago, sometimes I ate one meal a day, and sometimes I ate a few mouthfuls a day.

Kangxi also walked over, reached out and touched the cat's head, "There is no way, no one can change birth, old age, sickness and death." After Kangxi finished speaking, he sat on the other side of Hongyun.

And the fourth elder brother stood aside and saw the old cat between the two of them, as if looking at the past through this cat.He suddenly recalled what Huang Guiren said in the dark.He can't remember the content of the words clearly, but he still remembers the strong schadenfreude mixed in it.

Just when Huang Guiren was gloating, the sixth child had died.

When the fourth elder brother was the youngest, he also thought about who the person closest to him in the world was. At the earliest, he thought it should be the sixth child. The two came out of the same mother's womb, with the same father and mother.

At that time Lao Jiu hadn't been born yet, and they were the only brothers with the same father and mother in this palace.

But at that time, Lao Liu didn't regard himself as a brother. Now, even if these brothers are all relatives, there are many differences between them.

If the cat dies, will my memory of Lao Liu be completely erased, and I will recall it without any emotion at the end, even the pity and the unbelievable shock at that time will disappear without a trace.

The fourth elder brother bent down and licked the cat's head.

He and Tian Mi said: "Son, I will send you a dog in a few days. The dog is loyal, but the cat is not. My son remembers that when he was a child, fortune jumped up and down, and he liked to run out. You asked him to go out to look for it several times. How many times have people sent it back to us. In the future, you will raise a dog, and the dog will know the Gu family. "

Kangxi nodded at the side, "The fourth brother is right, let Honghui go to the study when this summer is over, and then your place will be free again, as long as the dog makes a little noise, your side will be more or less popular."

Tian Mi couldn't laugh or cry, there are so many maids and eunuchs in the palace, so they are not popular anymore?

But his objection was invalid, and the father and son discussed and settled the matter. Although there are cat and dog rooms in the palace, they are all well-trained pets, but the fourth elder brother wants to try to find them outside the palace. Find a cuter one and send it to Tian Mi.

Time passed slowly, and when the beginning of autumn came, the weather was still very hot, and autumn tigers were still rampant in the northern land.

Because the prince lives in the palace, his female relatives also live in the palace.

Tian Mi had discussed this with Kangxi, or else the prince would bring his family to the garden.After all, the newly built garden next to it is also empty, and the prince can bring people to live in it.

Kangxi disagreed. There were more and more sons and daughters, and as time went by, his concubines also became more and more.These people are not enough to live in, and there is no way to distribute them to the prince. The prince and his family want to escape the summer, so they can only build another garden.

The prince's garden was built quickly, but the prince was unwilling to live there because he could handle some court affairs by staying in the palace, and if he couldn't handle it, he would send it to Changchun Garden for Kangxi to deal with.

To put it bluntly, the imperial palace is a power center. Even if the emperor is not there, some yamen are also near the imperial palace, and many things to be done must be approved in the imperial palace.

This has been the case for the past few years, and Tian Mi didn't take it to heart, but Tian Mi suddenly received a message not long after the beginning of autumn.

A corpse was carried out from Yuqing Palace and sent to the chemist's factory for refining.

Tian Mi's subconscious reaction after hearing this was, "Did you die of illness?"

Impossible, if someone is really sick, it will definitely be reported.When the masters were sick, they had to arrange for the imperial physician to see them, and when the servants were sick, they had to be removed from the palace.

In the past, when Tian Mi read those time-travel novels or TV dramas, she always heard that the lives of people in the palace were worthless.In fact, this is not the case, and these court ladies and eunuchs are not clay figurines, they are not only angry but also bloody, for example, it shows that the court ladies can strangle the emperor with white silk.

If a court lady or eunuch commits a crime, lynching is not allowed in the palace, and must be handed over to the Department of Punishment.

Although a few people die every year, it is not because of poisoning, retaliation, beatings or those sensational methods of death.

But the one who was carried out this time died in a somewhat shocking way.

Qingyu quietly told her in Tian Mi's ear that this person was beaten to death.

With such a deceased person on the crown prince's territory, there will be more room for fuss.Tian Mi does not interfere in this kind of matter, this matter can only be left to Kangxi to handle.

Not only that, if this kind of thing happens in other prince's houses, Tian Mi will not intervene, not to say that she can't intervene, but to avoid suspicion, after all, Tian Mi is an imperial concubine, so her reputation is somewhat unfair.Once the four words "righteousness and integrity" are involved, Tian Mi has to be more careful when doing things.

This is the difference between the queen and the deputy queen.

Kangxi got the news earlier than Tian Mi did, so Tian Mi couldn't easily inquire about everything he had blocked.

Not to mention Tian Mi's place, the entire palace including these princes and clan members stretched their necks to get the most reasonable explanation for this matter.

But Kangxi did not give an explanation, and the prince did not release any statement.This matter is so let go, once it is let go, even a fig leaf is not willing to be exposed, then there will be more room for everyone to imagine.

When an autumn rain started to fall and the weather started to turn cold, Tian Mi worried about sending Honghui to school.

Honghui started his study career, and the fourth elder brother and his wife came more frequently.Si Age had a serious face and would not share gossip with Tian Mi, but Si Fujin was more than happy to tell Tian Mi about the outside news.

"No one talks about it in the streets and alleys, but my daughter-in-law heard it from everyone when she went to a few other houses for dinner."

Tian Mi coughed a few times because of the cold weather, and started to take medicine again. She was holding a bowl of medicine at this time. Perhaps it was the lively nature of human beings that made her eyes light up when she heard this.

"Tell me, what do you say outside?"

"It's said outside..." She approached Tian Mi's ear and said in a low voice, "The outside said that the one that was carried out belonged to the prince... If you play too much, you will kill him."

"Who said that?"

"I don't know. Anyway, there are a lot of news about this kind of statement. Do you also think it's unbelievable? It may not be true in all likelihood, but everyone likes to hear such unusual topics."

This topic is too much, as if everyone saw it with their own eyes.

Tian Mi has lived to this age, and knows that sometimes gossip is true facts, and sometimes it is true rumors.But whether this news is true or false, she has no way of knowing and cannot judge.

"You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. It will be a big deal if the emperor finds out. Even if you don't know, it will cause a storm if the prince hears about it."

Sifujin nodded quickly.

Tian Mi silently took a sip of the medicine bowl, thinking in her heart whether she should tell Kangxi the news?

Tian Mi originally planned to tell Kangxi, but she didn't dare to say it later.

The reason was that Kangxi fainted suddenly.

It's about this time, the weather is already cold, it shouldn't be heat stroke.

After Tian Mi received the news, she rushed to Qingxi Bookstore in a hurry, and invited the Queen Mother, all the princes also came, and the clan ministers were all waiting outside.

This configuration made Tian Mi a little unbelievable, because if Kangxi failed, no matter whether he left a last word or not, these people would be able to push the process of the crown prince's ascension to the throne.

At that time, the clan kings will ask the queen mother to make an order, and the prince will accept the queen mother's order on the spot and ascend the throne.The whole process is simple and compliant, and it is absolutely legal and reasonable.

So there are many people who are anxious, many people who are happy, and many people who pray in their hearts that all this will not happen.

Tian Mi sat next to Kangxi and asked the imperial physician: "What's going on? Why did the good emperor faint?"

Tian Mi was still a little unbelievable when she was asking the question. Logically speaking, Kangxi should have lived a long life. Why at this time...

The imperial physician was unwilling to say that if the emperor really became the first emperor, then the cause of death of the first emperor would have to be reported to the new emperor.

Tian Mi completely felt what it means to be injustice and not in order, and she has no right to know the reason for Kangxi's downfall.

She turned her head and glanced at the fourth elder brother, who shook her head.

The Empress Dowager was crying, the imperial doctor injected the silver needle, and after a few needles went down, Kangxi gurgled in his throat, his chest rose and fell rapidly, and he opened his eyes.

Tian Mi quickly helped him, "Cousin, how are you doing?"

Kangxi moved his right hand, and then put it down again, "I'm fine, let them back down."

Others quickly gathered around, and the prince looked even more nervous, "Huang Ama?"

Kangxi closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's all right, let's all go back."

Although these princes stood aside, they all heard but did not leave.The elder brother raised his voice, "Huang Ama, please take care."

The sons from behind said in unison: "Please take care of Huang Ama."

After all, everyone's psychology is different. The boss's idea is not to let the second child be more beautiful than the front. Now the old man is lying down, and he can't see other people.

Others thought that it was best for Huang Ama to be fine. After all, being an emperor with a brother and being an emperor with a father are completely different concepts.

Kangxi felt uncomfortable when he woke up, and he didn't want to talk to so many people anymore, "Understood, let's all back down."

At this moment, all the princes retreated, and the clan ministers also went out.At this moment, the prince was a bit reluctant to part with him, and he was still standing by the bed.

Kangxi raised his hand with difficulty and waved, "You go down too."

The prince glanced sideways at Tian Mi who was sitting by the bed, and retreated silently.

Tian Mi bent over to help Kangxi up. Tian Mi herself was not in good health and often did not exercise. Although Kangxi was ill, he did not lose weight. When Tian Mi helped him up, she found that she was really weak. .

"Cousin, why do you feel uncomfortable now? You don't even know. I heard the news that you passed out just now. It scared me...It's fine as long as it's okay."

Kangxi stretched out his hand and patted his chest, "Just now my chest hurts here, and suddenly it hurts here, and my head is also dazed for a moment, and I feel dizzy."

Kangxi pointed to the top of the heart with his finger, and then pointed to his head, "I'm afraid I'm getting old, and I can't accept my old age."

Tian Mi calculated his age. After all, he is 50 to [-] years old. Considering that this person exercises a lot, he should not have geriatric diseases.

"This..." Tian Mi didn't know what to say, because she didn't know anything about healing, and she was a layman. People said that a long-term illness can make a doctor, but this sentence is completely untenable in front of Tian Mi.

Kangxi asked all the eunuchs and maids to retire. At this time, he didn't trust these slaves, and he didn't trust the sons outside. When only he and Tian Mi were left in the room, Kangxi was telling the truth.

"My heart and lungs are not very good. I don't have any symptoms at ordinary times. Now that I am old, I can't help it." Speaking of this, he quietly revealed something to Tian Mi, "The first emperor also had this problem, and it was the empress dowager back then. Tell me. I see that none of these boys are there, and only I and the late emperor have some signs in our family."

Tian Mi didn't know how to react after hearing this, but seeing that he was about to sit up, she quickly stood up and supported him, "Why don't you take a rest and don't move."

"It's okay. My heart doesn't hurt very much right now. I'll have someone put some Su Hexiang in your place in two days. You can hide it and don't let these elder brothers know. You have to hide it from the fourth brother and his father and son."

"Don't worry, I know what to do. The imperial doctor didn't dare to tell them what happened this time. I just said that you usually stayed up all night, and you fainted today because you couldn't hold on. I guess these elder brothers are waiting outside Now, as soon as I go out, they will definitely ask me."

"Just say that, and don't think too much about these slaves, some slaves will spit. Sooner or later, people in the family will know about this matter. All I can do is to keep myself from getting angry as much as possible."

Tian Mi helped him to walk around the hall for a few times. Kangxi patted his chest with his hands from time to time as he walked. After a while, he felt relieved. He called the eunuchs in, took the medicine and drank it, and fell asleep. .

After he fell asleep, Tian Mi went out of Qingxi Bookstore to talk to the Empress Dowager. Sure enough, as Tian Mi thought, these brothers didn't leave, they were all waiting outside.

When Tian Mi just stepped down the steps, these people gathered around one after another, "Your Majesty, how is Huang Ama doing now?"

Tian Mi looked at them with a smile, "Your Huang Ama has been tired these days and hasn't slept well for several nights, that's why she passed out just now. I just drank the medicine and fell asleep. The imperial doctor meant that I got up late these days Go to sleep and keep your spirits up.”

Regardless of whether Tian Mi's words were true or not, these princes believed them on the surface, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Tian Mi's face was very relaxed, "Let's go back early, tomorrow's court meeting may be pushed back a little bit, I will talk to the Queen Mother at the back now, and let her not worry about it."

The brothers dispersed and let Tian Mi help the maid's hand down the steps and onto the sedan chair and left.

Now that the imperial concubine said so, everyone bid farewell in front of the gate of the garden. Those who mounted each other got on horses, those who sat in sedan chairs sat in sedan chairs, and those who rode carriages rode carriages. They left the palace and went back to their homes.

Lao Ba, Lao Jiu, and Lao Shilu, the three brothers were riding in a carriage, Lao Ba squinted his eyes and thought about something, the more Lao Jiu thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

"Has the old man stayed up late in the past few days? I see that there are no black and white eyes, and it doesn't look like he stayed up late."

Old Ten said: "Your Majesty said that staying up late is staying up late. Otherwise, how can I explain that the old man fainted suddenly? The old man is in such good health. If Buku is thrown, we brothers might not be able to fall him if we are tied together." Said My old ten was the first one who didn't believe that he had any hidden disease. He told me that he was probably angry. Let’s talk about it, so I pushed it to staying up late.”

Lao Jiu clapped his hands together, "Brother Ten, you are right, this is the most likely."

Lao Ba opened his eyes, "The thing that can make Huang Ama behave like this, but can't say it, is what that person from the East Palace is doing again."

"Didn't he kill someone just now? This must have angered the old man."

The atmosphere in the carriage became more relaxed, the three brothers were not talking, and everyone had smiles on their lips, waiting for the day when the prince would be unlucky.

No matter how favored he is, it's okay to do one or two things like this, but if he does too much, can Huang Ama put up with him?

The other princes thought the same way. The fifth brother and the seventh brother were riding horses. When they were on the road, they walked side by side, and the guards followed far behind.

The fifth child said: "Huang Ama must have been pissed off. It's understandable for people to faint in a fit of rage. Have you seen today's posture? Everything that needs to be done has passed, and the imperial doctor just needs to say something about Huang Ama." Tomorrow, the crown prince can ascend the throne on the spot. Alas, I sincerely hope that Huang Ama will live a long life, so that I can live a good life in front of his old man for a few more years without disappointment."

Lao Qi also sighed, "Well, to be honest, our brother's future is bleak."

Then the two brothers sighed at the same time, with the same thought in their hearts, "Let Huang Ama live a few more years."

The boss also rode home on horseback. When he dismounted at the door, he pulled out the handkerchief in his sleeve and wiped his face. After entering the door, he relaxed. Da Fujin came up to him and brought him a cup of tea.

"I heard that Huang Ama is very ill, isn't it?"

"It shouldn't be serious. The imperial concubine can still laugh. The imperial concubine was smiling when she came out, and she didn't look like she was frightened. If the prince is allowed to ascend the throne, I will not be the only one who will be unlucky. These brothers and the harem None of the empresses in the family are having a hard time. You don't even know that the second child almost became the throne today, and it's just a little bit short."

It can be said that the boss was quite frightened. After he relaxed, he felt that he couldn't go on like this anymore. He had to think of a way. If something like this happened to him next time, there was really nothing he could do.

"I have to think of a way. I used to think that I was strong enough, but now I realize that it is very difficult to achieve the four words "righteousness and integrity".

And what the boss lacks is just such a legitimate title.

The fourth child waited in the Ningchun hall until it was getting dark and Tian Mi came back from the queen mother.

Tian Mi knew what he was waiting here for, but Tian Mi would not tell him about Kangxi's condition.

Kangxi can't tell his secret on the front foot, and sell him on the back foot. Even if he sells him, it must be at the right time, and this time is not acceptable.

"Emiang, Huang Ama's side..."

"Okay, don't inquire about things you shouldn't inquire about, go back, and remember one sentence, this lady can live a peaceful life for decades from now on."

The fourth elder brother stood up and took a few steps back, "The son will go back first. If it's cold today, you should wear more clothes. It's cold and easy to cough. The few acres of red pears my son planted outside the city have yielded fruit. I'll give it to you tomorrow." send."

Tian Mi nodded and asked the servants around her to send him away.

Everyone didn't sleep well that night. Many people were thinking, what should I do if something like this happens again next time?

If something like this happens again next time and Kangxi does not survive, the fate of many people will change.

Kangxi was also thinking, with the prince's current temper, he would not lie to those women in the East Palace, let alone those women in the harem. What does these women have to do with him?To put it bluntly, except for the imperial concubine and concubine who are more important, everyone else is equivalent to the concubines left behind by his Ama.Which patriarch has a good face towards the concubines left behind by the old patriarch?

Moreover, the prince has always been aloof, and has a bad relationship with the other brothers. Now the court is a mess, the water in the south of the Yangtze River is also very deep, and what's more, the capital is not peaceful.

These clansmen in the capital always want to get something for nothing, and always want to get some benefits from the palace, but the huge family is supported by the finances, and the more children are born, the finances will only be dragged down in the future.Therefore, the clan must not be allowed to take power again, and their power must not be revived.

This time is the time for the brothers to unite together, form a rope, and work together to rectify the chaos in the court.But the prince doesn't have the ability to screw these brothers together.

Kangxi didn't sleep well that night, and the next day inevitably had a pair of dark circles on his face, and his complexion looked particularly bad.Many people have heard that the reason why he fainted was because he stayed up too late.Therefore, before the major events of the Shang court, everyone advised him to take care of his health and rest early in the future.

Kangxi had spread the word that Tian Mi was preparing a table of vegetarian dishes there, and at noon, he would take a sedan chair to Ningchun Hall for lunch.

After Kangxi sat down, he took out a long and thin box from his sleeve and handed it to Tian Mi. "It contains Suhexiang. Take one or two incense pills and use two catties of rice wine to make Suhexiang wine. Drinking it occasionally is of great benefit."

Tian Mi took the box over, took a look at the wooden board on top, and there were small grains of Suhexiang pills densely packed inside.

"Don't worry, I will keep this thing myself."

Kangxi nodded, seeing Tian Mi locked the box and hung the key around his neck, the two began to eat lunch.

Kangxi was thinking last night, should he make his cousin a queen?

If I am not so lucky next time, I fainted and never woke up again.At that time, the major affairs of the country will not be able to avoid her, and she will no longer be left aside by everyone.When the new king succeeds to the throne, he will not disrespect her no matter what.

The cousin became the queen, and further became the queen mother. She can take care of the women in the harem and the young princes and princesses.

Thinking of this, he picked up some lotus root with chopsticks and put it on Tian Mi's plate, "Eat more, we will pay more attention to it in the future, eat more vegetarian and lean meat, and don't eat too much fat meat."

"Don't worry about me, you can eat some too. Did you not sleep well yesterday? I see that your face has not recovered yet. Let's go to sleep after eating later, and then go to the study after a good sleep."

Kangxi nodded, and after eating, he strolled around the courtyard for a few laps with Tian Mi to digest his food, and then lay down on Tian Mi's bed to take a nap.This sleep was so long that Hong Hui hadn't woken up when he came back from the school after school.

Hong Hui ran back from the West Garden and rushed into the yard yelling all the way, "My Lady, My Lady, Master praised me today".

Tian Mi hurried to the door, "Little ancestor, please keep your voice down, your Huang Mafa is still asleep."

Hong Hui stretched his head to look inside the house, stuck out his tongue, and took Tian Mi's hand to the yard.

Kangxi was already woken up by his making such a fuss. After lying on the bed for a while, he got up and got dressed. He went to the door of the house to see that the sun was setting, and now it was almost time for dinner.

It's all over now, and he won't go to Qingxi Bookstore. He plans to stay with his cousin after dinner and sleep to make up for it.

Seeing him come out of the house, Tian Mi led Hong Hui to stand up, "I just want to wake up my cousin, if I sleep again, I might not be able to sleep at night."

"No, I can take a walk around after dinner and sleep again. What did Hong Hui learn today? Bring the book here, I'm going to test you."

When Honghui went to get the books, Kangxi sat down with Tian Mi and explained the arrangements for next year, "Let's go to Jiangnan again next year, Jiangnan is a good place, it would be a pity not to go."

"Okay, they haven't delivered this year's money yet, so I'll write a letter to tell them not to send it here, and stay in Jingjiangnan. When we go next year, we can always use this money."

Kangxi nodded, talking about money, he thought of the booklet Cao Yin sent over, Li Xu's servant, said that he was half-hearted, and he didn't tell his new master the most important things.It is said that he is loyal, but this slave is obviously half-hearted.

Li Xu's brain is too active, not as loyal as Cao Yin, and not as good as Sun Wencheng in terms of practicality.The matter in Jiangnan is really the emperor and the courtiers. Next year, I will explain it to Cao Yin. If my side dies unfortunately, the Jiangnan Tongzhengsi Yamen must know how to deal with it.

Thinking of this, he sat on the rocking chair and let the chair shake twice, and said to Tian Mi who was sitting on the side: "Cao Yin is a loyal slave! It's just that he doesn't want future generations to continue to do the work of Zhizaofu, what is he thinking?" I also know that next year, it is better to give them a favor and let his son come to the capital."

"Come to the capital?"

"Yes, if his son is willing to go the way of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I will take care of him. In the future, whether he will be a third-rank and fourth-rank official, or a first-rank and second-rank official will depend on Cao Yong's ability. If he is willing to take the imperial examination, I will raise the flag for their family and let them take off their identity."

"You take special care of their family."

"In the beginning, it was indeed because of Nanny Sun, but Cao Yin deserves my special respect for him. You see, there were so many wet nurses back then, and Nanny Wen was no worse than Nanny Sun. Why couldn't Li Xu, a slave, get my special respect for him? What about it? There is a layer of reason for the incense and affection of the elders, but the most important thing is that they themselves are capable and loyal."

When he said this, Honghui had already found out his textbook, ran over and put the textbook in Kangxi's arms, "You take the exam as you please, and your grandson will learn it."

Kangxi smiled and nodded Honghui with his hand, then turned to Tian Mi and said, "I just like this kid's self-satisfaction."

Among these grandsons, Kangxi favored Honghui more than the younger elder brothers of the prince's family, and Honghui made a taboo invisibly.

There is an unwritten rule that in those days, these elder brothers could not surpass the crown prince in literary skills, and could not surpass the eldest brother in martial arts.It is still the same now, regardless of elder brother or the children of the princes, when they are in school, their performance cannot exceed these sons of the prince's family.

In other words, if these few in the East Palace are idiots, everyone must be even more idiots than them.But Honghui was so outstanding in everything, which made the prince's face dull, and he secretly scolded his sons.

Hong Xi, who had a good relationship with Hong Hui, became resentful towards Hong Hui, so that after winter came, he often troubled Hong Hui.

Hong Hui was raised in the palace since he was a child, and he has never suffered a disadvantage from the moment he can remember. He knew immediately that Hong Xi brought his servants to trip him overtly and secretly.The two had a fight when they were practicing Buku, because they were about the same age and strength, and they were both fat and well-balanced in nutrition, so both of them were beaten with bruises on their faces.

Hong Xi returned to the East Palace dejectedly, because he knew that he would be scolded by the crown prince after he returned.Honghui didn't get beaten by his Ama, so it wasn't Ama who was afraid of him.So he went back to Tian Mi arrogantly, even if he said that Tian Niangniang would not touch him, so Hong Hui didn't have any fear at all.

Tian Mi saw his bruised face, and listened to his words, she sighed in her heart, but she said: "It's common for boys to fight at home, you can't hate Hongxi tomorrow just because you got into a fight today, Whatever happens in the future."

In private, he called all the slaves around Honghui over and gave them instructions. Logically speaking, Honghui should avoid being the prince's son.But Tian Mi didn't want him to avoid this edge. He avoided the edge too early and for too long. Honghui lost his own characteristics at all, and instead disappeared from the crowd.

Just like Kangxi said, no one can match this kid's self-confidence.In order to make him continue to be confident, Tian Mi called Eunuch Chen to his side.

"Your old man has taken care of me for so many years. You should have enjoyed your old age, but now I have a more important matter to tell you. Honghui is my heart and lifeblood. He acted recklessly at a young age, so he recruited some people. Eyes, when the time comes, people will come to you in the open and not come in the dark, killing him or destroying him is really more serious than killing me, so you go to him and keep him growing up safely, At that time, the fourth child and I will thank you."

After listening to Eunuch Chen's agreement, he packed up his things and moved to Honghui Courtyard.

Tian Mi also told Honghui to protect herself when she came to eat and play with her.The children in the palace matured relatively early in some places, and after spending a few months in the study room, he already had a clear understanding, and naturally he fully agreed to Tian Mi's orders.

Tian Mi remembered that Hong Hui had a life-and-death disaster when he was six years old. Apart from worrying about himself, he found Yang Dan, who was also studying, "Your nephew has been too popular these few months, not to mention that people treat him well." How do you look at it, there is an old saying that heaven is jealous of talents, and I am always uneasy in my heart, so don't keep thinking about playing, take care of him more."

What he said was endless, Yang Dan thought for a while and agreed, "Don't worry, my son will never let him be alone. We Honghui are also obedient, and we are not the kind of people who are not allowed to do what they want to do." Don't worry, my child."

Tian Mi nodded, but she was not at ease in her heart.After finishing everything that should be done, she sincerely offered incense and prayed to the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara in her backyard.She didn't believe in these things before, but now she finds that the older she is, the more she believes in them.

After the Chinese New Year, Hong Hui was six years old. At that time, there was a draft in the palace. Tian Mi was flipping through the brochures of these beautiful girls. Suddenly, a eunuch came to report!

"Your Majesty, brother Honghui is happy to see you."

To see happiness is to have smallpox.

Tian Mi was so shocked that her hands and feet were cold and her whole body was trembling, "Please invite fourth master here, find a clean and ventilated place outside the palace, and send brother Honghui there later. Also, find a doctor in the Imperial Hospital to find some reliable Go and guard our elder brother."

The fourth elder brother received the news very quickly, and he personally sent Hong Hui to the yard where the acne was avoided.

Tian Mi's heart was not peaceful at all, and she handed over the matter of the draft to the three concubines, and prayed for Honghui's smallpox herself.

In the past few days, I have been blindfolded almost all day long, and my whole body has become visibly haggard to the naked eye.

Kangxi advised her: "The fourth child is watching, don't worry. Besides, this child is strong and can survive."
