Four elder brothers take the script of salted fish

As people grow older, their hearts soften naturally.

The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager held the fifth elder brother Yinqi in their palms like a pearl or a treasure, and they did not say anything about Yifei Aiwu and Wu, and they also had a three-point sincere love for Yinzhen.

Yin Qi carelessly said a lot.

Almost 80.00% of them are talking about Yinzhen, not to mention the fourth brother who pops out of his mouth the most on weekdays, the number of times Yifei and ninth elder brother Yinzhen are mentioned is probably only one or two tenths.

Thinking about Yinzhen not being stingy with money, and thinking about Yinqi's saying that the glass kiln factory is extremely profitable, the empress dowager also took out the other two kilns under her name with a wave of her hand, one was given to Yinzhen, and the other was famous. Yinzhen and Yinqi are managed together, and the income is considered to subsidize the concubines and elder princesses.

As soon as the news spread, many concubines came to kowtow to the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager, Concubine Tong and Concubine Yi.Elder brothers and princesses have their own salary and money, which is basically used best for food, lodging and clothing. After all, most of the money from the empress dowager will be subsidized by the concubines in the end.

Except for the imperial concubine, the noble concubine, the fourth concubine and the concubines, the concubines who have no children and no daughters have always had a difficult life in the harem.The Empress Dowager always looked down on a bunch of concubines, and the gratitude of the concubines also fell on the imperial concubine and concubine Yi.

Even Kangxi affirmed the credit of the two.

Concubine Yi looked at the reward that hadn't appeared in Yikun Palace for a long time, and looked at the palace people who were overjoyed, and slowly let out the last breath of gloom in her heart.

That's it.

She now teaches Yinzhen well, and waits for her two sons to grow up to serve her.With a Hexi smile on Concubine Yi's face, she ordered the palace people to call a group of concubines to distribute various fabric jewelry, and the laughter inside could be heard through the palace wall.

Concubine Yi has it, so does Concubine Tong Huang.

All these fabrics should be used fairly on Yinzhen and Princess Shuyan.Yinzhen doesn't like bright colors but prefers simple and refreshing ones, and it's easy to make.

And the three-year-old Xiao Shuyan already understands what it means to be beautiful.

From flag dresses to Mongolian dresses, to Han dresses, and Western lace princess dresses, Concubine Tong has made more than ten sets.

Not to mention it's stylish to wear.

The itchy Yinzhen also begged to make a bunch of riding clothes, literati robes, Taoist robes, and western clothes, and put them on one by one to show off.

Of course portraits are also essential.

Although the third elder brother Yinzhi despised Yinzhen's taste, Yinzhi praised Xiao Shuyan's taste and recommended it to the second princess by the way.

It's just that you can try the first three, but the western lace skirt can only be worn secretly in the house, let alone painting, which made the second princess sigh for a long time.In the end, she couldn't help but come to the door herself, under the pretense of painting a few portraits of the younger sister - in fact, she pretended to have worn it herself.

The harem is peaceful and peaceful, but the front court is in chaos.

Since the Shunzhi Dynasty, the Raksha people on the northwest border have frequently invaded, but it has gradually changed from decades of brutal conquests to Huairou warfare.This Huairou tactic worked very quickly, and what caused the chaos in the court today was the defection of the dignified fourth-rank official, Chief Daur, and his tribe.

There was a commotion in the hall.

The generals of the Ministry of War were very angry and rushed to ask for orders to start the war.The elder brother Yinti stared at him dryly, jumping up and down anxiously, wishing he could go with him.No matter how optimistic Kangxi was about the eldest son, it was impossible for Yinti, who was only 13 years old, to go to the battlefield, which made him unable to bear a touch of disappointment on his face.

Noticing the loss of his eldest son, Kangxi persuaded him gently after he came down to court: "Next year, I intend to go on a southern tour and plan to go to the Fujian Navy. I heard that you admire Shi Lang a lot, so I will take you to see it when the time comes."

Yinti was slightly taken aback.

After he got his own system, he was obsessed with researching ships, and by the way, he was quite curious about the navy. In private, he couldn't help lamenting that the Fujian navy was far away. Take it all into your eyes and keep it in your heart.

Yinti's heart was warm.

His eyes were bright, his spirits were high, and he looked at Kangxi with a little eagerness: "Really?"

Kangxi smiled and nodded.

He smiled and lowered his voice: "I will take you and the prince there."

Yinti gave a small cheer.

After he calmed down, he pretended to cough: "Then maybe the fourth brother must be making a fuss."

It was rare to see the eldest son showing a little childishness, and Kangxi was also in a good mood.With a faint smile on his face, he raised his fingers and hissed: "Yinti has to help me keep it a secret!"

Yinti happily responded.

After walking out of the East Nuan Pavilion, his footsteps were also much lighter, and it was rare for him to walk out bouncing around.Nalan Kuixu, who was promoted to the imperial guard after his elder brother, happened to see this scene, and he turned around with a bit of surprise and couldn't help telling Ama.

Mingzhu has been in a good mood recently.

Hearing this, his beard became even more raised: "It must be the emperor who praised Eldest Brother, Eldest Elder Brother is honest and gentle, and he is no worse than the Crown Prince—"

Nalan Kuixu's face froze.

Follow this rhythm... that's right!My ama started to talk about the excellence of the elder brother, and by the way, she brought out a bunch of younger elder brothers such as the prince, the third elder brother, and the fifth elder brother to despise them.

As for the fourth elder brother, Nalan Mingzhu ignored him.

The shortcomings of the fourth elder brother, who is not excellent, are well known, but no matter how big the shortcomings are, they have to stand aside in front of cowpox.As long as there is no rebellion or other stupid things, the nobles of the civil and military clans all know that the fourth elder brother will at least have a prince in the future!

Of course knowing is knowing.

When it came to the end, Nalan Mingzhu still couldn't hold back, smacked her lips and complained: "The fourth elder brother barely has two or three tenths of the elder brother's intelligence, but he doesn't need to study—"

Nalan Kuixu listened expressionlessly.

It's been almost half an hour now, maybe another quarter of an hour... Is it almost the same?He lowered his head and secretly yawned, thinking in a daze——next time there is something to do, why don't you ask your elder brother to nag?

However, Nalan Mingzhu's pride didn't last long, and he was stunned by a big news in the court hall the next day.

The emperor actually intends to let His Highness the crown prince give lectures?

The prince is only 12 years old now!

Nalan Mingzhu barely managed to pull out her beard, so her face turned dark with anger.As for the listless Suo'etu, his body changed suddenly, and the gloominess between his brows and eyes faded away, replaced by obvious joy.

The situation changed in an instant.

The aggrieved Princeling Party has become more and more powerful, and the Pearl Party's momentum has also been suppressed.

As soon as Mingzhu stopped thinking, her mind became clear.

Noticing the gazes falling on him, he stared back angrily one by one—what's the matter?Can they prevent the prince from leaving the cabinet to give lectures?

Mingzhu not only did not stop, she was even the first to express her opinion.

Kangxi smiled and listened to Mingzhu's flattery, and happily made a decision: "Leave this matter to Mingzhu."

Mingzhu wants to curse.

He was tongue-tied for a while before responding aggrievedly: "Slave obeys the order—"

Suo'etu was elated.

The regret of not being able to prepare for the crown prince to leave the cabinet to give lectures flashed through his mind, and then there was pride.You, Nalan Mingzhu, no matter how unwilling you are, don’t you have to work to flatter yourself?In a short period of time, Suo'etu thought of all kinds of ways to find faults, and waited to find Mingzhu's troubles later.

Seeing the sharpness in the eyes of Nalan Mingzhu and Suo'etu, Kangxi was very satisfied.Find the balance point in the court that can make the emperor most authoritative, and strengthen the power in his hands. This is the way of the emperor's balance.

In short, Kangxi needs Suo'etu to compete with Mingzhu.

It's just that the competition between the two must be under Kangxi's control, and it doesn't matter who is strong or who is weak.

Do Suo'etu and Mingzhu know?

Presumably they know it well but dare not think deeply.

Nalan Mingzhu cursed and had to devote herself wholeheartedly to planning the prince's leaving the cabinet to give lectures. If he was a little slack... Ha ha!Don't think he doesn't know that Suo'etu is staring at him!If something goes wrong...

Leaving the pavilion to give lectures is to let the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty appreciate and witness the prince's demeanor, let them understand the talent and ability of this future emperor, and let the people all over the world know the excellence of the heir of the Qing Dynasty.

If anything goes wrong.

The emperor will definitely not forgive himself!Thinking of this, Nalan Mingzhu was trembling and apprehensive, and devoted all her attention to this work, striving to achieve perfection in everything.

Fortunately, the Qin Tianjian quarreled for half a month just about the date, and finally settled on April 24 next year, which made Nalan Mingzhu feel a little relieved.

A little reassurance does not mean complete reassurance.

Before April 25, the 24th year of Kangxi, Nalan Mingzhu definitely didn't have the mood to sleep well.

As for the elder brother Yinti.

He didn't cast any eyes on Nalan Mingzhu, concentrated on studying the wooden ship models, and decided to take all these models to the Fujian Navy.

The study of ship models is boring and tedious.

A large number of drawings and calculated data made the big brother's study messy, and there were piles of discarded papers everywhere.Although not good at drawing portraits, Yinzhen, who is very confident in drawing design samples in straight lines, also tried to help organize them, but he was confused by the piles of drawings within a few strokes.

Yinzhen announced his defeat.

Prince Yinreng never expected to stump Yinzhen, and he also rushed to the elder brother's office with great interest to try to help.

It didn't take an hour.

Yinfeng walked out of the study with a disheveled face, announcing his defeat.

The third elder brother Yinzhi didn't even have the courage to go in :)

Not to mention the princes and princesses, no matter how young they are, are even more discolored.The news spread all the way to the Palace of Yanxi Palace. If it wasn't for the fact that he was too young to go out alone, the eighth elder brother Yinhu wanted to rush to see what the eldest brother had done to scare the prince and second brother away!

Why hasn't he heard of such great achievements in his previous life?

Concubine Hui got the news, which meant that all the concubines in the harem got the news.After going back and forth, the news about the elder brother's playfulness and despondency spread in the palace, and even Kangxi heard about it.

Kangxi frowned.

While he was in class in the study, he stood outside the door with his hands behind his back and observed carefully.Just looking out of the window, I can see that Yinti is concentrating on reading and reciting seriously, and there is no sign of any playfulness or despondency at all.

Kangxi: ...?

At once?Looks normal?This idea has not yet settled down, he keenly noticed that the atmosphere in the study room has gradually changed.Except for the elder brother Yinti who was still concentrating on writing, the rest of the elder brothers and the accompanying readers were a little anxious and looked up at the Western clock frequently.

The western clock hangs high in the front.

The moment the second hand touched the number 12, Tang Bin also announced the dismissal of get out of class at the right time.As soon as the words were finished, Kangxi saw the elder brother and his companions who were all over the room standing up with a huff, kicking their legs... and rushing out the door?

Kangxi: ...? ? ?

His face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he scanned the group of elder brothers angrily.

This appearance is clearly treating this upper study as a dragon's pond and a tiger's den!

The prince is so good that he doesn't know how to persuade him to accompany him?Kangxi's face became more and more ugly, his hands were on the door and his arms gathered strength to push the door open.

at the same time.

The elder brother Yinti, who was closest to the gate, stood up and blocked the gate calmly.

Kangxi: .........?

Could it be that this kid has already happened to my arrival?A cluster of anger ignited in his heart.

Kangxi is about to erupt.

At the moment when he got angry, he only heard Yinti asking in a warm voice: "Today...who is going to help Ben elder brother?"

Obviously the elder brother Yinti's voice is so gentle.

But what fell on the ears of these little elder brothers and companions was like thunder, they trembled like chicks being stared at by falcons.

The elder brothers headed by Yinzhen even showed their quick wits.

They reached out and grabbed Tang Bin, and shouted eagerly: "Master Tang, my brother/students didn't understand this textbook! Please Master Tang give some pointers to the students!" The voice was so sincere.

Kangxi: .........? ? ?

He didn't know where the anger that came out earlier went, Kangxi looked dazed and felt that his head was filled with question marks.
