The fourth elder brother's eyes have always been on the younger brother, and he has never left for a moment.Therefore, when he saw Yinyou's actions, the smile on his face was suppressed, and he walked over in two or three steps.
But even then it was too late.
When everyone was cheering for Yinyou's wonderful performance, he stepped forward and held Ta Ri's two front hooves with both hands.
Then, he stretched his head over and pouted his mouth high!
Brother San couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing loudly: "It's amazing, it's Xiao Qi who is the best!"
Fifth elder brother's smile froze on his face: "What is he going to do?"
Brother Six frowned and didn't speak, but his face suddenly turned ugly.
The eighth elder brother stared at the round eyes: "Is he going to kiss the sun?"
Baotai clapped his hands and shouted, "Brother Qi likes kissing the most!"
Not only does his seventh brother like the look of Ta Ri, but he also likes it very much.Flicking its big tail, it moved two steps forward with its hind hoofs, and lowered its head.Obviously, Xiao Maju wanted to touch Yinyou's mouth with his mouth.
Brother Six couldn't help touching his face, as if in the study just now, it wasn't his younger brother who kissed him, but Ma kissed him.
Baotai also covered his mouth, and shouted: "Seventh brother, if you kiss it, don't kiss me."
Who wants to kiss him, his seventh brother just wants to shut his mouth.
At the last moment when Yinyou's mouth was about to come into close contact with the little pony's mouth, the fourth elder brother finally grabbed his shoulder and pulled him back.
The little guy lost his balance, leaned back, waving his little hands in the air, and shouted anxiously: "It's a kiss, it's a kiss, it's about to be a kiss, I've been practicing for a long time without success, and I'm about to succeed today!" "
However, today was also unsuccessful, because the moment his brother pulled him away, Ta Ri turned his head proudly, landed on all fours, turned his head and walked away.
Yinyou: "..."
The fourth elder brother whispered in his ear: "Er Niang found out, you might be beaten."
"However, I have taught it this movement for a long time."
The fourth elder brother held his hand tightly, not allowing him to run around: "Teach me something else later."
The little guy was led by his brother, and couldn't help but look back: "When I'm done practicing, I'll take it to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and perform for Mama Ukuma."
After Yinyou left, the other brothers immediately surrounded him, wanting to interact with it too.
However, Ta Ri is only a cute creature who is willing to cooperate with all his whims and wonderful ideas in front of Yinyou, but he is very cold in front of others. No matter how the fifth elder brother guides him to do movements, he turns a blind eye.
The eighth elder brother said: "Fifth brother, don't bother, Ta Ri only listens to the seventh brother."
Brother Six stood aside, still touching his face.
Baotai leaned in front of Ta Ri, pouted like his seventh brother: "Tari, come, kiss!"
Ta Ri almost rewarded him with a hoof.
At this time, the guards brought the masters' meals, and the fourth elder brother hurriedly asked Zhao Cheng to lead the horse down, and called the little things to come in for dinner.
After being taught a few times by the imperial concubine, Yinyou only likes to eat meat, and his problem of not liking vegetables has changed a lot. Now even when he eats in the Shang Study Room and Yuqing Palace, he still actively eats vegetables.
However, children of his age are more or less picky eaters.Some don't like meat, some don't like vegetables, and some don't even like rice.
At noon, when everyone was having lunch at the same table, he ate deliciously with each bite of food, and he still kept his eyes on meowing and meowing to see his brothers.
The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother are older after all, so he doesn't have to worry about eating as a younger brother, but the two of them still look at him from time to time.
Brother San likes to add vegetables to his bowl, because he eats with big mouthfuls, it looks very fragrant and makes people very appetizing.
So feeding the cuties at the dinner table is also the joy of the third elder brother every day.
The fourth elder brother always uses the standard of an imperial concubine to ask his younger brother: "Eat well, don't just play too much, it will get cold after a while."
"It's time, if you haven't finished eating, they will remove the dishes."
"Xiaoqi, stop playing."
"..."
Yinyou didn't play, he was observing, his big clever eyes patrolled around, observing the other brothers on the table.
"Fifth brother!" The little guy suddenly found the target, "Why don't you eat carrots?"
The fifth elder brother used chopsticks to pick out the carrots in the side dishes and threw them on the table: "Carrots have an obedient taste, I don't like this."
"My mother said that carrots are nutritious, and children will grow strong after eating them!" Yinyou suddenly stood up from his seat, walked around half a circle and walked to Brother Fifth, picked up a piece of carrot and put it in his mouth. , "Try it, it's delicious."
Fifth elder brother turned his head to the other side: "I won't eat!"
"Try it, lions like to eat it too." The little guy's lips moved up and down, imitating the way a rabbit gnawed on a carrot, and he was so cute.
He is too enthusiastic, can act like a baby, and looks so cute.The fifth elder brother couldn't bear to reject his younger brother.He had to carefully open his mouth and eat the piece of carrot that he brought to his mouth.
But after chewing for a long time, his face gradually twisted, and he still felt that this food was not tasty, and he couldn't accept it.
Yinyou stood aside, watching his expression all the time.It feels like his fifth brother is taking very bitter medicine.So, the little guy stretched out his hand and patted his chest: "If it's really bad, just spit it out."
The fourth elder brother sighed, walked over and led him back to his seat: "Hurry up and eat your own, it's almost cold."
Sure enough, Yinyou lived in Yuqing Palace for seven full days, and he was extremely happy every day.She didn't cry or make trouble, she didn't say she wanted to go back, and she didn't miss Erniang.
Seven days later, he stood at the front star gate and waved goodbye to the prince: "Brother prince, I'm going back."
The prince sent him to the door, held his little hand, and refused to let go, very reluctant for him to leave.
Since the renovation of Yuqing Palace was completed in the 17th year of Kangxi, the four-year-old prince moved here.
This group of palaces is very large, with four courtyards in front and back, and dozens of rooms alone.There are also many palace people who take care of him. No matter where he goes, there are a group of people surrounding him.
But he is the crown prince, even though he has many brothers, he is still lonely.As the crown prince, he has a more honorable position and shoulders a heavier mission than other brothers.
Finally, my beloved younger brother came to stay with him for a few days, trained ponies in the yard with him, had dinner together, read and practiced calligraphy in the study together, even helping him to copy "The Analects of Confucius" was very happy.
Waking up suddenly at night, the first thing to do is to check if he has kicked the quilt, and then help him cover it up. The two brothers fell asleep together head to head.
For such a happy day, seven days is too short, the prince wished to keep Xiao Tuanzi in Yuqing Palace forever, to be with him, and to take care of him personally and teach him to read and write.
Watching him grow up happily, thinking about it is a very happy thing at first sight.
"Xiaoqi," the crown prince squatted down, was at eye level with his younger brother, and asked him with a smile, "Is it okay to stay in Yuqing Palace for a few more days?"
Yinyou shook his head: "Ama said that he can only stay for seven days, and it can't affect the prince's brother to go to school."
"Where does it affect it, it doesn't affect it at all. With you here, the prince's brother's study efficiency is even higher."
Xiaotuanzi thought for a while, but still shook his head: "Seven days will be seven days as agreed. If you live for a long time, my mother will miss me."
The prince teased him: "But the prince brother will miss you after you go back."
Xiaotuanzi rushed over, put his arms around his neck, and kissed him forcefully on the face: "Then I will come to Yuqing Palace to accompany the prince brother next time."
As he said that, he still pretended to sigh: "My mother-in-law doesn't have any other babies, so I can't leave her for too long."
As soon as he said this, the prince's emotions immediately became complicated. From the reluctance at the beginning, to a little teasing later, and now, he is even a little envious.
From childhood to adulthood, he knew that his mother-in-law was the queen.But there is a word "first" in front of the queen.He had never seen that woman before, and he only knew that she was the granddaughter of Suoi, the minister of state affairs, who married into the palace due to strong political reasons and became the first wife of the young emperor.
After the three-year mourning period for Empress Renxiao expired, Khan Ama established a second empress, Niu Gulu.
At that time, Yinfeng was still very young, and he knew that although the woman was also called the queen, she was not his mother.
At that time, Yinreng was brought up by Kangxi himself. He had heard Khan Ama's evaluation of the new queen, and he said, "That is my good match."
Yinfeng didn't like Niu Gulushi, not because there was anything wrong with this woman.She was well educated and well-versed, and she was the most knowledgeable woman in the harem at that time, so she was able to settle in the East Palace smoothly.
He just simply thought that this woman took away his mother's position and her husband, and he couldn't let her take away his son.
Later, Niu Colu's family only became the queen for less than a year.She also died, also because of the childbirth.
Empress Renxiao left behind a legitimate son for the emperor and a crown prince for her mother's family.
As for Niu Gulu, she left nothing behind, only got Kangxi's "good match".
Then came another three-year mourning period.The emperor no longer established a queen, but appointed a royal concubine.
Yinfeng has also grown up, and he understands a truth.With so many women in the harem, maybe his Khan Ama doesn't love anyone, including his first wife and his so-called "good match".
From then on, Yinfeng would never bear any grudge against any woman in the harem for taking away his Ama, because they couldn't take it away.
But he is really envious of Yinyou, he is so innocent and cute, he is held in everyone's hands, he never lacks the love from his elders, and he is never stingy to pass on his love to others.
There are so many feminine emperors in the harem who have children, but only imperial concubines can raise such sons.
The prince patted Xiaotuanzi's face: "Alright then, I'll take you back."
The two brothers held hands and walked towards the harem.Yuqing Palace is on the east side, and Chengqian Palace is also in the East Sixth Palace, which is the closest place to Jiaotai Palace and the palace with the highest status in the harem.
The prince sent Yinyou to the door, and waved at Xiaotuanzi: "Go in."
But Yinyou refused to let go, and dragged him in with great difficulty: "My mother knew that I was back, so she must have cooked a lot of delicious food. The prince brother also came to eat together."
"This……"
The prince didn't go to the harem much since he was a child, and now that he's grown up, he doesn't go there very much to avoid suspicion.
"Not so good," the prince stood on the spot, no matter how much Xiaotuanzi dragged him, he didn't move at all, "I'll watch you go in, so I won't go."
The two of them chattered for a long time, when suddenly someone came from behind, the prince turned his head to look, on the luanyu surrounded by eunuchs and guards, wasn't it their Ama sitting there?
Kangxi told everyone to stop, got off Luanyu himself, and walked up to his two sons.The weather was getting hotter. He held a folding fan in his hand and looked at his two sons: "You two, what are you doing here?"
The prince hurriedly took his younger brother and bowed in salute: "My son pays homage to Ama Khan."
Yinyou raised his head and looked at Ama: "I want my brother to go back to Chengqian Palace with me for dinner, but he said it's not good."
Kangxi looked at his eldest son, and then at his younger son.Closed the folding fan and walked forward: "Come in."
The little guy guessed right, knowing that he was coming back, the imperial concubine really did the cooking herself, cooked several dishes that he still ate, and filled the table.Even if there are two more people, Kangxi and the prince, it is enough.
The prince did not expect that the daily life of Chengqian Palace was so full of life, just like the days of ordinary people in the villages they passed by during their southern tour.
The imperial concubine's craftsmanship is good, no matter it is compared with the imperial dining room or the small kitchen of the imperial bedroom, the style is different.
The prince couldn't tell whether it was delicious or not, but seeing Yinyou gobbling it up, anyway, he ate more than usual.
He raised his head again and sneaked a look at Khan Ama.He seemed to be used to having dinner at Chengqian Palace, so he didn't make too many comments.
After dinner, Kangxi called both sons to the study.
The imperial concubine asked people to make tea, cut up fruits and sent them over.
Sitting behind the desk, Kangxi asked Yinyou: "Have you finished copying 120 times of "Weizheng"?"
The little guy nodded: "It's all copied."
He put a stack of papers in front of Kangxi: "Ama, do you want to check it?"
Kangxi smiled inexplicably: "Then let's have a look."
He looked down at the stack of papers, and the two brothers looked at each other quickly.
The prince had never done such a thing, and he was a bit guilty of being punished for copying books for his younger brother. He was afraid that Khan Ama would see the clue and punish him along with him.
Yinyou's state is very relaxed. He often helps his brothers to copy books, and he already has experience. Neither Ama nor the master will read so carefully.
He put what he copied at both ends, and sandwiched what the prince brother copied for him in the middle.Unless Ama read it page by page from beginning to end, it would be impossible to find that some parts were copied by the prince for him.
The Western clock "tick-tick-tick" sounded, and the time passed by every minute and every second.
Kangxi really went through the pages one by one, putting some on the left and some on the right.
It was probably the speed at which he practiced reading and reviewing memorials. It didn't take much time, and he almost finished dividing the 120 pages.
The further back, the more flustered the little guy became.He hurriedly took the teacup from the hand of the maid, carefully walked around the desk, and brought it to Kangxi himself: "Ama, would you like some tea?"
Kangxi didn't raise his head: "I'm not thirsty now, you can put it there first."
"..."
Yinyou put the teacup on the table, and took the opportunity to look at the two stacks of papers separated by Ama.In fact, the prince has been trying very hard to imitate his calligraphy, but Yinyou is no longer just a child at the stage of learning calligraphy, he has already formed his own style, and it is quite difficult for the prince to imitate.
Now such a comparison, in fact, it is not difficult to see that this is from the handwriting of two people.
The little guy asked again: "Ama, would you like some fruit?"
"Just had dinner, what fruit do you want to eat?"
"..."
But in a short while, Kangxi had separated the large stack of papers.
He looked around, visually measured the thickness of the two stacks of paper, and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, it seems that the prince only copied a small part for you."
"Of course..." The little guy raised his head and said a little proudly, "Brother Prince is usually so busy with his studies, I would be very grateful to him if he could copy it for me..."
"Little Seven!"
The prince kept giving him winks, but Xiaotuanzi kept focusing on the two stacks of papers, and was a little carried away, so he didn't notice the prince standing on the other side.
After shouting like this, Xiaotuanzi turned around and saw the prince's elder brother shaking his head at him with a helpless expression, and then he suddenly realized what he had just said.
"That...Ama..." The little guy picked up the teacup, and stubbornly bumped into Kangxi, "You'd better have a sip of tea to calm down."
"I'm not angry." Kangxi took the tea from his son Xiaojing, put aside the foam on it, took a sip, nodded with satisfaction, feeling that the taste was different, "I agree that you will know what you drink when you go to Yuqing Palace idea."
He raised his head and glanced at the little guy: "However, the handwriting has improved a lot. Presumably you should also memorize "Weizheng" by heart, so let's do it like this."
"Hey!" The little guy leaned over, "I can recite everything without copying it so many times. Master has finished all the "Wei Zheng Pian" today, and I can recite it all, and I know the meaning of every sentence."
Kangxi looked at him and smiled: "Okay, okay, I know you're smart." He picked up the folding fan, and tapped lightly on the little guy's forehead, "It's just that being smart doesn't have to be done in a serious place. Do you know about hurting Zhongyong?"
Yinyou hadn't read this article, so he shook his head: "I don't know."
"Then let the prince tell you."
At this time, under the instruction of Kangxi, the servant brought two stools.The prince sat aside with his younger brother and told him the story of hurting Zhongyong: "This article comes from Wang Anshi's "Mr. Linchuan Collection"..."
Hearing Wang Anshi's name, the little guy interjected excitedly: "I know, I know, I can recite his poems."
Kangxi asked: "What poem?"
""Plum Blossom", "Yuan Ri", and that one...Jingkou Guazhou is a river, and Zhongshan is only a few mountains away. The spring breeze is green on the south bank of the river. When will the bright moon shine on me?"
Kangxi laughed when he heard that, this little smart guy, all the books he read and the poems he memorized were used to make people happy.
He glanced at the prince: "Go on."
"It tells a story about a supernatural power named Fang Zhongyong, because his father used him as a tool to make money and refused to let him study, and finally the supernatural power was reduced to an ordinary person..."
The prince explained the general meaning of this article to Yinyou.Kangxi said from the side: "Listen, if you don't study hard, you will become an ordinary person in the future."
The little guy thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, in order not to disappoint you, then I will learn to be an ordinary person now."
"..."
The master in the study room has now finished explaining the "Weizheng Chapter" to the princes, and the rest is for the princes to read and understand it by themselves, and finally memorize it firmly.
But this is really difficult for the princes who are only five or six years old.
Moreover, the current level of the princes is also uneven.
The fifth elder brother has not even read all Chinese characters, let alone recited and understood "The Analects of Confucius".
Sixth elder brother is impetuous, although he is not as full of tricks as Yinyou in class, but he doesn't necessarily listen to the class very seriously.
The prince is now studying in the Wenhua Palace, and Kangxi will let him go to the morning court together from time to time. There are many opportunities to test him, and he will not make a special trip to the Wenhua Palace to test him every day.
And the upper study room is in Qianqing Palace, and going there every day is just a few more steps.
Kangxi sat in the middle of the study, and the princes stood in a row below, with different expressions.From their demeanor and expressions, it is not difficult to guess what they are thinking.
Third Elder Brother has always been good at reading, even if Kangxi picks out a book at random, turns a page, and asks him to recite and explain it, he is no problem.
The fourth elder brother is diligent and down-to-earth. Although he is not as good as the third reading, he is by no means bad.Every time Kangxi tested him, he could answer everything fluently.
The fifth elder brother, the sixth elder brother, the seventh elder brother... Kangxi's eyes swept over the three sons one by one. All three of them, without exception, all looked away, and even moved a little bit, trying to hide behind each other.
The fifth elder brother saw that Ama Khan's eyes fell on him, and his heart began to fluctuate: "No way, no way, is Ama really going to spot-check me? I can't even speak Chinese."
After a turmoil in his heart, he raised his head cautiously: "Hey, Ah Ma's eyes have already fallen on the sixth child."
Sixth brother has his hands behind his back. He has been a little troubled recently, and he kept wringing his hands behind his back, thinking silently: "Pick fifth brother, let him come out and answer questions."
"Old Ba." Kangxi's eyes finally fell on Yinhu.
"Yes." The eighth elder brother who was called took a step forward and bowed to Ama.There was no trace of panic on his face, and there was even a little bit of joy.
Seeing him happy, Yinyou couldn't help but smile.Even after being glared at by Ama, she immediately restrained her smile, looked at her nose with her eyes, and looked at her heart with her nose.
Kangxi said to the eighth elder brother: "Tell me, why is a gentleman not a weapon?"
"Hui Khan Ama," said the eighth elder brother without much thought, "Sage Confucius mentioned in "The Book of Changes" that 'what is above the metaphysical is called the Tao, and what is below the metaphysical is called the tool', and a gentleman should become invisible' Dao', rather than being bound by tangible 'vessels'."
Kangxi nodded: "Go on."
"Using is a tangible existence, but Tao is intangible. What a gentleman does not mean is that a gentleman should have the world in mind, have both civil and military skills, and be omnipotent. It is not like a utensil, which is limited to only one talent."
When he said this, the people next to him looked at him with unbelievable eyes.They have never heard of "Yi Zhuan" or "the metaphysical is called Tao, and the metaphysical is called tool", but the eighth brother can talk about it with eloquence.
Yinyou's eyes were particularly surprised, and the expression on his face seemed to say "my brother is very good, it's because I'm good", "my brother's answer is good, it's because of me".
Kangxi turned his head and asked the master beside him, "Have they already studied the Book of Changes?"
The master bowed and replied: "Go back to the emperor, not yet."
Kangxi asked the eighth elder brother: "Where did you learn all this?"
The eighth elder brother replied: "In the past, when the third brother was studying this article, my son heard it from the side, and later read it in a book."
Kangxi nodded, and the expression on his face couldn't tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied.
Then he stood up and said to the eighth elder brother: "First learn what the master taught."
After he finished speaking, he walked out of the study room with a large stride.
As soon as Ama left, Yinyou rushed forward: "Eighth brother, you are so amazing, we have never heard of what you said."
After all, the eighth elder brother was young, and Khan Ama remained calm. He didn't know whether Khan Ama was satisfied or dissatisfied after listening to his answer.
At first, looking at Khan Ama's expression, I thought it was a little unexpected, but then he asked himself to learn what his master taught him first.
What exactly does this mean?
Just when Yinyou put his arms around the eighth elder brother's shoulders and praised him for his strength, fifth elder brother and sixth elder brother were also looking at them.
The fifth elder brother asked: "Well, what did the eighth brother say just now? I didn't understand a word of it."
Brother Six bumped into his shoulder: "You should study Chinese first."
Then, he pulled Yinyou again, and asked him mysteriously: "Xiao Qi, I have something to ask you."
"Huh?" Yinyou turned around and looked at him suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Sixth elder brother pulled him aside, and asked in a low voice, "How do you know that Ah Ma will spot-check the eighth brother?"
Yinyou was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect him to ask such a topic.Then she blinked innocently: "Because Ama usually likes to ask the eighth brother to come out and answer questions."
Brother Six tilted his head and thought for a while, it seems, it seems that this is indeed the case, but, it seems, it seems that it is not.
Yinyou put his hands on his shoulders and pushed him to his position: "Why do you think so much, anyway, if we don't draw us, it will be fine?"
Sixth elder brother sat at the desk, raised his head and looked at him: "You know everything, but you are afraid that Ama will ask questions."
"Who says I'm not afraid," the little guy walked back and sat on his own seat, "I won't say that 'metaphysical is called Tao, and metaphysical is called tool' just now, if Ama asks me, I will I will only tell him that a gentleman cannot be a weapon hahaha..."
After talking about it, he made himself laugh, as if this was really a funny thing.
Sixth elder brother secretly wondered, what they were talking about just now was how Xiao Qi knew that Ah Ma was going to randomly check the eighth younger brother today, so why did they get to the point of "a gentleman can't be a weapon".
He didn't think about it, every time Khan Ama came to spot-check their homework.Yinqi, Yinyou, him, and Baotai, the four of them are evasive, wishing to learn the invisibility technique so that Ama can't see it.
Only Yinhu always looked confident and eager to try, wishing that Ama would ask him questions, so that he could take this opportunity to perform well.
Yinyou found out that Brother Wu really doesn't like carrots.Every time he has lunch, he spends a lot of time picking out the shredded carrots in the side dishes one by one.
This matter worried him badly, Er Niang said that if children are picky eaters, their health will not grow well.Especially carrots are very nutritious vegetables, how can you not eat them?
So, he found an opportunity, pulled the fifth elder brother earnestly and said, "Fifth brother, fifth brother, you can't be picky eaters. My mother-in-law said that picky eaters will lead to unbalanced nutrition and not grow tall."
He said this again, and the fifth elder brother was a little impatient: "Okay, okay, I understand."
But the little guy refused to let him go: "Look at me, I used to be a head shorter than my eighth brother. It's because I'm not picky about food, so it only took one spring to grow to be about the same height as him."
The fifth elder brother smiled and pinched his face: "You are a few months older than him, what is there to be proud of when you are about the same height as him?"
Yinyou: "..."
Fifth elder brother looked him up and down again: "Besides, I don't think you are taller than him now hahahahaha."
Yinyou rushed over to block his mouth: "You hate it, hate it!"
Fifth elder brother put his arms around him, and gestured on the top of his head with his hand: "Look, you are only as tall as my nose, but I am much taller than you. Facts have proved that whether you will grow taller or not, will you eat carrots or not?" It doesn't matter. Mama Huang said, eat more beef and mutton to grow taller and stronger."
"..."
The little guy was speechless for a while, and Fifth Brother's words sounded very reasonable.
He sighed and thought to himself: "It seems that we have to think of other ways to convince Fifth Brother."
The little guy walked to his place dejectedly, halfway there, and suddenly turned around: "Fifth Brother! You see, I am good at Chinese, and Manchu and Mongolian are better than you. I understand the articles taught by the master." I can firmly remember it because I ate carrots."
Fifth elder brother glared at him angrily: "Yes, yes, you are the best!"
"..."
Yinyou returned to Chengqian Palace, still thinking about this matter in his heart.He had to think of a way to make Fifth Brother no longer picky eaters.
The imperial concubine walked into the study to see him, and found that he couldn't write well, she sat there in a daze, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about how to raise it so that Fifth Brother is willing to eat carrots."
The imperial concubine was taken aback: "What kind of carrots do you eat?"
Yinyou told the imperial concubine that every time there were carrots in the meal, the fifth elder brother had to pick them out one by one: "Sometimes, when the time is up, they will come in and tear off the dishes. Brother didn’t eat much.”
There is a stipulation for going to the study for lunch. This is a rule established by the emperor, and no one dares to disobey the holy will.When it's time to eat, and when it's time to collect the bowl, they don't care whether the princes are full or not.
The imperial concubine looked at her son in surprise: "Are you even worried about this?"
The little guy suddenly stood up from the chair, walked over to lean on Er Niang, put his hands around his waist, and pressed his little head tightly against her: "Look, Empress Yifei has ninth and eleventh brothers, she There are two children to take care of, Eleventh Brother is not in good health, she is so busy every day, how can she have time to care about Fifth Brother."
The imperial concubine hugged his head and gently stroked it: "But the fifth elder brother has the empress dowager who loves him."
Yinyou raised his head: "All the babies want Erniang to care about him. Although the fifth brother said no, he feels wronged every time he sees Yifei empress holding the ninth or eleventh brother."
"Is that so?" The imperial concubine thought for a while, "Then I haven't noticed it."
"Really, I have seen it many times." The little guy was afraid that Er Niang would not believe his words, so he stomped his feet anxiously, "No matter how much the emperor Mama loves him, there is no way to replace his Er Niang."
"Okay, okay," the imperial concubine put her arms around him, "You are more lenient than your Ama, don't you just let him eat carrots? Er Niang will help you find a way."
The little guy raised his head and showed her a sly smile: "I want to tell Ama, you said he was too strict."
"You dare," the imperial concubine pushed him away, "then I won't help you."
The little guy pounced on him again: "Just kidding, I won't tell Ama!"
"You brat..."
The imperial concubine took her son in the small kitchen to study new carrot recipes, frying and frying, which may not be something that the imperial dining room can't cook.
The little guy gave advice to Er Niang: "Think about something else."
So, the imperial concubine asked people to cut carrots into shreds, wrap them in flour, and put various seasonings inside.
Brush a layer of oil on the pan, put the shredded carrot wrapped in flour into the pan, and bake it into a fragrant carrot cake.
When it was out of the pot, the little guy couldn't wait to have a taste.
"Be careful!"
"S~ss~ it smells so good!"
"..."
After the carrot cake was ready, Yinyou couldn't wait to send it to Brother Wu.
The imperial concubine stopped him: "Are you going now?"
"Otherwise?" Yinyou blinked, "Isn't this provoking you?"
The imperial concubine noticed it, he just wanted to take the opportunity to sneak out to play.So he nodded: "Then you go."
Yinyou has never been to elder brother's place, because he doesn't like that place.He was particularly repelled when he thought that he would leave Eniang and move in one day.
Now that he's grown up, and with Ama's promise, the little guy has let go of his courage.
He was also quite curious about how the elder brothers usually lived in elder brother's house.
The Ganxi No. [-] Institute is located on the west side of the Forbidden City, corresponding to the Gandong No. [-] Institute in the east. They share a palace gate. After entering, there is a narrow and long small square.
Yinyou poked his head into the palace gate, there was no one in the small square, so he walked in boldly.
First came to the first courtyard door, the courtyard door was not closed tightly, leaving a gap in the middle.
The little guy leaned his head forward and looked in through the gap.
He has never been here before, and he doesn't know who lives in it, but he is very curious, and his mentality is similar to opening a blind box.
The yard was empty, and just as he was about to turn around and leave to go to the next place to have a look, a cold voice suddenly came to his ears: "What are you doing?"
But even then it was too late.
When everyone was cheering for Yinyou's wonderful performance, he stepped forward and held Ta Ri's two front hooves with both hands.
Then, he stretched his head over and pouted his mouth high!
Brother San couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing loudly: "It's amazing, it's Xiao Qi who is the best!"
Fifth elder brother's smile froze on his face: "What is he going to do?"
Brother Six frowned and didn't speak, but his face suddenly turned ugly.
The eighth elder brother stared at the round eyes: "Is he going to kiss the sun?"
Baotai clapped his hands and shouted, "Brother Qi likes kissing the most!"
Not only does his seventh brother like the look of Ta Ri, but he also likes it very much.Flicking its big tail, it moved two steps forward with its hind hoofs, and lowered its head.Obviously, Xiao Maju wanted to touch Yinyou's mouth with his mouth.
Brother Six couldn't help touching his face, as if in the study just now, it wasn't his younger brother who kissed him, but Ma kissed him.
Baotai also covered his mouth, and shouted: "Seventh brother, if you kiss it, don't kiss me."
Who wants to kiss him, his seventh brother just wants to shut his mouth.
At the last moment when Yinyou's mouth was about to come into close contact with the little pony's mouth, the fourth elder brother finally grabbed his shoulder and pulled him back.
The little guy lost his balance, leaned back, waving his little hands in the air, and shouted anxiously: "It's a kiss, it's a kiss, it's about to be a kiss, I've been practicing for a long time without success, and I'm about to succeed today!" "
However, today was also unsuccessful, because the moment his brother pulled him away, Ta Ri turned his head proudly, landed on all fours, turned his head and walked away.
Yinyou: "..."
The fourth elder brother whispered in his ear: "Er Niang found out, you might be beaten."
"However, I have taught it this movement for a long time."
The fourth elder brother held his hand tightly, not allowing him to run around: "Teach me something else later."
The little guy was led by his brother, and couldn't help but look back: "When I'm done practicing, I'll take it to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and perform for Mama Ukuma."
After Yinyou left, the other brothers immediately surrounded him, wanting to interact with it too.
However, Ta Ri is only a cute creature who is willing to cooperate with all his whims and wonderful ideas in front of Yinyou, but he is very cold in front of others. No matter how the fifth elder brother guides him to do movements, he turns a blind eye.
The eighth elder brother said: "Fifth brother, don't bother, Ta Ri only listens to the seventh brother."
Brother Six stood aside, still touching his face.
Baotai leaned in front of Ta Ri, pouted like his seventh brother: "Tari, come, kiss!"
Ta Ri almost rewarded him with a hoof.
At this time, the guards brought the masters' meals, and the fourth elder brother hurriedly asked Zhao Cheng to lead the horse down, and called the little things to come in for dinner.
After being taught a few times by the imperial concubine, Yinyou only likes to eat meat, and his problem of not liking vegetables has changed a lot. Now even when he eats in the Shang Study Room and Yuqing Palace, he still actively eats vegetables.
However, children of his age are more or less picky eaters.Some don't like meat, some don't like vegetables, and some don't even like rice.
At noon, when everyone was having lunch at the same table, he ate deliciously with each bite of food, and he still kept his eyes on meowing and meowing to see his brothers.
The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother are older after all, so he doesn't have to worry about eating as a younger brother, but the two of them still look at him from time to time.
Brother San likes to add vegetables to his bowl, because he eats with big mouthfuls, it looks very fragrant and makes people very appetizing.
So feeding the cuties at the dinner table is also the joy of the third elder brother every day.
The fourth elder brother always uses the standard of an imperial concubine to ask his younger brother: "Eat well, don't just play too much, it will get cold after a while."
"It's time, if you haven't finished eating, they will remove the dishes."
"Xiaoqi, stop playing."
"..."
Yinyou didn't play, he was observing, his big clever eyes patrolled around, observing the other brothers on the table.
"Fifth brother!" The little guy suddenly found the target, "Why don't you eat carrots?"
The fifth elder brother used chopsticks to pick out the carrots in the side dishes and threw them on the table: "Carrots have an obedient taste, I don't like this."
"My mother said that carrots are nutritious, and children will grow strong after eating them!" Yinyou suddenly stood up from his seat, walked around half a circle and walked to Brother Fifth, picked up a piece of carrot and put it in his mouth. , "Try it, it's delicious."
Fifth elder brother turned his head to the other side: "I won't eat!"
"Try it, lions like to eat it too." The little guy's lips moved up and down, imitating the way a rabbit gnawed on a carrot, and he was so cute.
He is too enthusiastic, can act like a baby, and looks so cute.The fifth elder brother couldn't bear to reject his younger brother.He had to carefully open his mouth and eat the piece of carrot that he brought to his mouth.
But after chewing for a long time, his face gradually twisted, and he still felt that this food was not tasty, and he couldn't accept it.
Yinyou stood aside, watching his expression all the time.It feels like his fifth brother is taking very bitter medicine.So, the little guy stretched out his hand and patted his chest: "If it's really bad, just spit it out."
The fourth elder brother sighed, walked over and led him back to his seat: "Hurry up and eat your own, it's almost cold."
Sure enough, Yinyou lived in Yuqing Palace for seven full days, and he was extremely happy every day.She didn't cry or make trouble, she didn't say she wanted to go back, and she didn't miss Erniang.
Seven days later, he stood at the front star gate and waved goodbye to the prince: "Brother prince, I'm going back."
The prince sent him to the door, held his little hand, and refused to let go, very reluctant for him to leave.
Since the renovation of Yuqing Palace was completed in the 17th year of Kangxi, the four-year-old prince moved here.
This group of palaces is very large, with four courtyards in front and back, and dozens of rooms alone.There are also many palace people who take care of him. No matter where he goes, there are a group of people surrounding him.
But he is the crown prince, even though he has many brothers, he is still lonely.As the crown prince, he has a more honorable position and shoulders a heavier mission than other brothers.
Finally, my beloved younger brother came to stay with him for a few days, trained ponies in the yard with him, had dinner together, read and practiced calligraphy in the study together, even helping him to copy "The Analects of Confucius" was very happy.
Waking up suddenly at night, the first thing to do is to check if he has kicked the quilt, and then help him cover it up. The two brothers fell asleep together head to head.
For such a happy day, seven days is too short, the prince wished to keep Xiao Tuanzi in Yuqing Palace forever, to be with him, and to take care of him personally and teach him to read and write.
Watching him grow up happily, thinking about it is a very happy thing at first sight.
"Xiaoqi," the crown prince squatted down, was at eye level with his younger brother, and asked him with a smile, "Is it okay to stay in Yuqing Palace for a few more days?"
Yinyou shook his head: "Ama said that he can only stay for seven days, and it can't affect the prince's brother to go to school."
"Where does it affect it, it doesn't affect it at all. With you here, the prince's brother's study efficiency is even higher."
Xiaotuanzi thought for a while, but still shook his head: "Seven days will be seven days as agreed. If you live for a long time, my mother will miss me."
The prince teased him: "But the prince brother will miss you after you go back."
Xiaotuanzi rushed over, put his arms around his neck, and kissed him forcefully on the face: "Then I will come to Yuqing Palace to accompany the prince brother next time."
As he said that, he still pretended to sigh: "My mother-in-law doesn't have any other babies, so I can't leave her for too long."
As soon as he said this, the prince's emotions immediately became complicated. From the reluctance at the beginning, to a little teasing later, and now, he is even a little envious.
From childhood to adulthood, he knew that his mother-in-law was the queen.But there is a word "first" in front of the queen.He had never seen that woman before, and he only knew that she was the granddaughter of Suoi, the minister of state affairs, who married into the palace due to strong political reasons and became the first wife of the young emperor.
After the three-year mourning period for Empress Renxiao expired, Khan Ama established a second empress, Niu Gulu.
At that time, Yinfeng was still very young, and he knew that although the woman was also called the queen, she was not his mother.
At that time, Yinreng was brought up by Kangxi himself. He had heard Khan Ama's evaluation of the new queen, and he said, "That is my good match."
Yinfeng didn't like Niu Gulushi, not because there was anything wrong with this woman.She was well educated and well-versed, and she was the most knowledgeable woman in the harem at that time, so she was able to settle in the East Palace smoothly.
He just simply thought that this woman took away his mother's position and her husband, and he couldn't let her take away his son.
Later, Niu Colu's family only became the queen for less than a year.She also died, also because of the childbirth.
Empress Renxiao left behind a legitimate son for the emperor and a crown prince for her mother's family.
As for Niu Gulu, she left nothing behind, only got Kangxi's "good match".
Then came another three-year mourning period.The emperor no longer established a queen, but appointed a royal concubine.
Yinfeng has also grown up, and he understands a truth.With so many women in the harem, maybe his Khan Ama doesn't love anyone, including his first wife and his so-called "good match".
From then on, Yinfeng would never bear any grudge against any woman in the harem for taking away his Ama, because they couldn't take it away.
But he is really envious of Yinyou, he is so innocent and cute, he is held in everyone's hands, he never lacks the love from his elders, and he is never stingy to pass on his love to others.
There are so many feminine emperors in the harem who have children, but only imperial concubines can raise such sons.
The prince patted Xiaotuanzi's face: "Alright then, I'll take you back."
The two brothers held hands and walked towards the harem.Yuqing Palace is on the east side, and Chengqian Palace is also in the East Sixth Palace, which is the closest place to Jiaotai Palace and the palace with the highest status in the harem.
The prince sent Yinyou to the door, and waved at Xiaotuanzi: "Go in."
But Yinyou refused to let go, and dragged him in with great difficulty: "My mother knew that I was back, so she must have cooked a lot of delicious food. The prince brother also came to eat together."
"This……"
The prince didn't go to the harem much since he was a child, and now that he's grown up, he doesn't go there very much to avoid suspicion.
"Not so good," the prince stood on the spot, no matter how much Xiaotuanzi dragged him, he didn't move at all, "I'll watch you go in, so I won't go."
The two of them chattered for a long time, when suddenly someone came from behind, the prince turned his head to look, on the luanyu surrounded by eunuchs and guards, wasn't it their Ama sitting there?
Kangxi told everyone to stop, got off Luanyu himself, and walked up to his two sons.The weather was getting hotter. He held a folding fan in his hand and looked at his two sons: "You two, what are you doing here?"
The prince hurriedly took his younger brother and bowed in salute: "My son pays homage to Ama Khan."
Yinyou raised his head and looked at Ama: "I want my brother to go back to Chengqian Palace with me for dinner, but he said it's not good."
Kangxi looked at his eldest son, and then at his younger son.Closed the folding fan and walked forward: "Come in."
The little guy guessed right, knowing that he was coming back, the imperial concubine really did the cooking herself, cooked several dishes that he still ate, and filled the table.Even if there are two more people, Kangxi and the prince, it is enough.
The prince did not expect that the daily life of Chengqian Palace was so full of life, just like the days of ordinary people in the villages they passed by during their southern tour.
The imperial concubine's craftsmanship is good, no matter it is compared with the imperial dining room or the small kitchen of the imperial bedroom, the style is different.
The prince couldn't tell whether it was delicious or not, but seeing Yinyou gobbling it up, anyway, he ate more than usual.
He raised his head again and sneaked a look at Khan Ama.He seemed to be used to having dinner at Chengqian Palace, so he didn't make too many comments.
After dinner, Kangxi called both sons to the study.
The imperial concubine asked people to make tea, cut up fruits and sent them over.
Sitting behind the desk, Kangxi asked Yinyou: "Have you finished copying 120 times of "Weizheng"?"
The little guy nodded: "It's all copied."
He put a stack of papers in front of Kangxi: "Ama, do you want to check it?"
Kangxi smiled inexplicably: "Then let's have a look."
He looked down at the stack of papers, and the two brothers looked at each other quickly.
The prince had never done such a thing, and he was a bit guilty of being punished for copying books for his younger brother. He was afraid that Khan Ama would see the clue and punish him along with him.
Yinyou's state is very relaxed. He often helps his brothers to copy books, and he already has experience. Neither Ama nor the master will read so carefully.
He put what he copied at both ends, and sandwiched what the prince brother copied for him in the middle.Unless Ama read it page by page from beginning to end, it would be impossible to find that some parts were copied by the prince for him.
The Western clock "tick-tick-tick" sounded, and the time passed by every minute and every second.
Kangxi really went through the pages one by one, putting some on the left and some on the right.
It was probably the speed at which he practiced reading and reviewing memorials. It didn't take much time, and he almost finished dividing the 120 pages.
The further back, the more flustered the little guy became.He hurriedly took the teacup from the hand of the maid, carefully walked around the desk, and brought it to Kangxi himself: "Ama, would you like some tea?"
Kangxi didn't raise his head: "I'm not thirsty now, you can put it there first."
"..."
Yinyou put the teacup on the table, and took the opportunity to look at the two stacks of papers separated by Ama.In fact, the prince has been trying very hard to imitate his calligraphy, but Yinyou is no longer just a child at the stage of learning calligraphy, he has already formed his own style, and it is quite difficult for the prince to imitate.
Now such a comparison, in fact, it is not difficult to see that this is from the handwriting of two people.
The little guy asked again: "Ama, would you like some fruit?"
"Just had dinner, what fruit do you want to eat?"
"..."
But in a short while, Kangxi had separated the large stack of papers.
He looked around, visually measured the thickness of the two stacks of paper, and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, it seems that the prince only copied a small part for you."
"Of course..." The little guy raised his head and said a little proudly, "Brother Prince is usually so busy with his studies, I would be very grateful to him if he could copy it for me..."
"Little Seven!"
The prince kept giving him winks, but Xiaotuanzi kept focusing on the two stacks of papers, and was a little carried away, so he didn't notice the prince standing on the other side.
After shouting like this, Xiaotuanzi turned around and saw the prince's elder brother shaking his head at him with a helpless expression, and then he suddenly realized what he had just said.
"That...Ama..." The little guy picked up the teacup, and stubbornly bumped into Kangxi, "You'd better have a sip of tea to calm down."
"I'm not angry." Kangxi took the tea from his son Xiaojing, put aside the foam on it, took a sip, nodded with satisfaction, feeling that the taste was different, "I agree that you will know what you drink when you go to Yuqing Palace idea."
He raised his head and glanced at the little guy: "However, the handwriting has improved a lot. Presumably you should also memorize "Weizheng" by heart, so let's do it like this."
"Hey!" The little guy leaned over, "I can recite everything without copying it so many times. Master has finished all the "Wei Zheng Pian" today, and I can recite it all, and I know the meaning of every sentence."
Kangxi looked at him and smiled: "Okay, okay, I know you're smart." He picked up the folding fan, and tapped lightly on the little guy's forehead, "It's just that being smart doesn't have to be done in a serious place. Do you know about hurting Zhongyong?"
Yinyou hadn't read this article, so he shook his head: "I don't know."
"Then let the prince tell you."
At this time, under the instruction of Kangxi, the servant brought two stools.The prince sat aside with his younger brother and told him the story of hurting Zhongyong: "This article comes from Wang Anshi's "Mr. Linchuan Collection"..."
Hearing Wang Anshi's name, the little guy interjected excitedly: "I know, I know, I can recite his poems."
Kangxi asked: "What poem?"
""Plum Blossom", "Yuan Ri", and that one...Jingkou Guazhou is a river, and Zhongshan is only a few mountains away. The spring breeze is green on the south bank of the river. When will the bright moon shine on me?"
Kangxi laughed when he heard that, this little smart guy, all the books he read and the poems he memorized were used to make people happy.
He glanced at the prince: "Go on."
"It tells a story about a supernatural power named Fang Zhongyong, because his father used him as a tool to make money and refused to let him study, and finally the supernatural power was reduced to an ordinary person..."
The prince explained the general meaning of this article to Yinyou.Kangxi said from the side: "Listen, if you don't study hard, you will become an ordinary person in the future."
The little guy thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, in order not to disappoint you, then I will learn to be an ordinary person now."
"..."
The master in the study room has now finished explaining the "Weizheng Chapter" to the princes, and the rest is for the princes to read and understand it by themselves, and finally memorize it firmly.
But this is really difficult for the princes who are only five or six years old.
Moreover, the current level of the princes is also uneven.
The fifth elder brother has not even read all Chinese characters, let alone recited and understood "The Analects of Confucius".
Sixth elder brother is impetuous, although he is not as full of tricks as Yinyou in class, but he doesn't necessarily listen to the class very seriously.
The prince is now studying in the Wenhua Palace, and Kangxi will let him go to the morning court together from time to time. There are many opportunities to test him, and he will not make a special trip to the Wenhua Palace to test him every day.
And the upper study room is in Qianqing Palace, and going there every day is just a few more steps.
Kangxi sat in the middle of the study, and the princes stood in a row below, with different expressions.From their demeanor and expressions, it is not difficult to guess what they are thinking.
Third Elder Brother has always been good at reading, even if Kangxi picks out a book at random, turns a page, and asks him to recite and explain it, he is no problem.
The fourth elder brother is diligent and down-to-earth. Although he is not as good as the third reading, he is by no means bad.Every time Kangxi tested him, he could answer everything fluently.
The fifth elder brother, the sixth elder brother, the seventh elder brother... Kangxi's eyes swept over the three sons one by one. All three of them, without exception, all looked away, and even moved a little bit, trying to hide behind each other.
The fifth elder brother saw that Ama Khan's eyes fell on him, and his heart began to fluctuate: "No way, no way, is Ama really going to spot-check me? I can't even speak Chinese."
After a turmoil in his heart, he raised his head cautiously: "Hey, Ah Ma's eyes have already fallen on the sixth child."
Sixth brother has his hands behind his back. He has been a little troubled recently, and he kept wringing his hands behind his back, thinking silently: "Pick fifth brother, let him come out and answer questions."
"Old Ba." Kangxi's eyes finally fell on Yinhu.
"Yes." The eighth elder brother who was called took a step forward and bowed to Ama.There was no trace of panic on his face, and there was even a little bit of joy.
Seeing him happy, Yinyou couldn't help but smile.Even after being glared at by Ama, she immediately restrained her smile, looked at her nose with her eyes, and looked at her heart with her nose.
Kangxi said to the eighth elder brother: "Tell me, why is a gentleman not a weapon?"
"Hui Khan Ama," said the eighth elder brother without much thought, "Sage Confucius mentioned in "The Book of Changes" that 'what is above the metaphysical is called the Tao, and what is below the metaphysical is called the tool', and a gentleman should become invisible' Dao', rather than being bound by tangible 'vessels'."
Kangxi nodded: "Go on."
"Using is a tangible existence, but Tao is intangible. What a gentleman does not mean is that a gentleman should have the world in mind, have both civil and military skills, and be omnipotent. It is not like a utensil, which is limited to only one talent."
When he said this, the people next to him looked at him with unbelievable eyes.They have never heard of "Yi Zhuan" or "the metaphysical is called Tao, and the metaphysical is called tool", but the eighth brother can talk about it with eloquence.
Yinyou's eyes were particularly surprised, and the expression on his face seemed to say "my brother is very good, it's because I'm good", "my brother's answer is good, it's because of me".
Kangxi turned his head and asked the master beside him, "Have they already studied the Book of Changes?"
The master bowed and replied: "Go back to the emperor, not yet."
Kangxi asked the eighth elder brother: "Where did you learn all this?"
The eighth elder brother replied: "In the past, when the third brother was studying this article, my son heard it from the side, and later read it in a book."
Kangxi nodded, and the expression on his face couldn't tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied.
Then he stood up and said to the eighth elder brother: "First learn what the master taught."
After he finished speaking, he walked out of the study room with a large stride.
As soon as Ama left, Yinyou rushed forward: "Eighth brother, you are so amazing, we have never heard of what you said."
After all, the eighth elder brother was young, and Khan Ama remained calm. He didn't know whether Khan Ama was satisfied or dissatisfied after listening to his answer.
At first, looking at Khan Ama's expression, I thought it was a little unexpected, but then he asked himself to learn what his master taught him first.
What exactly does this mean?
Just when Yinyou put his arms around the eighth elder brother's shoulders and praised him for his strength, fifth elder brother and sixth elder brother were also looking at them.
The fifth elder brother asked: "Well, what did the eighth brother say just now? I didn't understand a word of it."
Brother Six bumped into his shoulder: "You should study Chinese first."
Then, he pulled Yinyou again, and asked him mysteriously: "Xiao Qi, I have something to ask you."
"Huh?" Yinyou turned around and looked at him suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Sixth elder brother pulled him aside, and asked in a low voice, "How do you know that Ah Ma will spot-check the eighth brother?"
Yinyou was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect him to ask such a topic.Then she blinked innocently: "Because Ama usually likes to ask the eighth brother to come out and answer questions."
Brother Six tilted his head and thought for a while, it seems, it seems that this is indeed the case, but, it seems, it seems that it is not.
Yinyou put his hands on his shoulders and pushed him to his position: "Why do you think so much, anyway, if we don't draw us, it will be fine?"
Sixth elder brother sat at the desk, raised his head and looked at him: "You know everything, but you are afraid that Ama will ask questions."
"Who says I'm not afraid," the little guy walked back and sat on his own seat, "I won't say that 'metaphysical is called Tao, and metaphysical is called tool' just now, if Ama asks me, I will I will only tell him that a gentleman cannot be a weapon hahaha..."
After talking about it, he made himself laugh, as if this was really a funny thing.
Sixth elder brother secretly wondered, what they were talking about just now was how Xiao Qi knew that Ah Ma was going to randomly check the eighth younger brother today, so why did they get to the point of "a gentleman can't be a weapon".
He didn't think about it, every time Khan Ama came to spot-check their homework.Yinqi, Yinyou, him, and Baotai, the four of them are evasive, wishing to learn the invisibility technique so that Ama can't see it.
Only Yinhu always looked confident and eager to try, wishing that Ama would ask him questions, so that he could take this opportunity to perform well.
Yinyou found out that Brother Wu really doesn't like carrots.Every time he has lunch, he spends a lot of time picking out the shredded carrots in the side dishes one by one.
This matter worried him badly, Er Niang said that if children are picky eaters, their health will not grow well.Especially carrots are very nutritious vegetables, how can you not eat them?
So, he found an opportunity, pulled the fifth elder brother earnestly and said, "Fifth brother, fifth brother, you can't be picky eaters. My mother-in-law said that picky eaters will lead to unbalanced nutrition and not grow tall."
He said this again, and the fifth elder brother was a little impatient: "Okay, okay, I understand."
But the little guy refused to let him go: "Look at me, I used to be a head shorter than my eighth brother. It's because I'm not picky about food, so it only took one spring to grow to be about the same height as him."
The fifth elder brother smiled and pinched his face: "You are a few months older than him, what is there to be proud of when you are about the same height as him?"
Yinyou: "..."
Fifth elder brother looked him up and down again: "Besides, I don't think you are taller than him now hahahahaha."
Yinyou rushed over to block his mouth: "You hate it, hate it!"
Fifth elder brother put his arms around him, and gestured on the top of his head with his hand: "Look, you are only as tall as my nose, but I am much taller than you. Facts have proved that whether you will grow taller or not, will you eat carrots or not?" It doesn't matter. Mama Huang said, eat more beef and mutton to grow taller and stronger."
"..."
The little guy was speechless for a while, and Fifth Brother's words sounded very reasonable.
He sighed and thought to himself: "It seems that we have to think of other ways to convince Fifth Brother."
The little guy walked to his place dejectedly, halfway there, and suddenly turned around: "Fifth Brother! You see, I am good at Chinese, and Manchu and Mongolian are better than you. I understand the articles taught by the master." I can firmly remember it because I ate carrots."
Fifth elder brother glared at him angrily: "Yes, yes, you are the best!"
"..."
Yinyou returned to Chengqian Palace, still thinking about this matter in his heart.He had to think of a way to make Fifth Brother no longer picky eaters.
The imperial concubine walked into the study to see him, and found that he couldn't write well, she sat there in a daze, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about how to raise it so that Fifth Brother is willing to eat carrots."
The imperial concubine was taken aback: "What kind of carrots do you eat?"
Yinyou told the imperial concubine that every time there were carrots in the meal, the fifth elder brother had to pick them out one by one: "Sometimes, when the time is up, they will come in and tear off the dishes. Brother didn’t eat much.”
There is a stipulation for going to the study for lunch. This is a rule established by the emperor, and no one dares to disobey the holy will.When it's time to eat, and when it's time to collect the bowl, they don't care whether the princes are full or not.
The imperial concubine looked at her son in surprise: "Are you even worried about this?"
The little guy suddenly stood up from the chair, walked over to lean on Er Niang, put his hands around his waist, and pressed his little head tightly against her: "Look, Empress Yifei has ninth and eleventh brothers, she There are two children to take care of, Eleventh Brother is not in good health, she is so busy every day, how can she have time to care about Fifth Brother."
The imperial concubine hugged his head and gently stroked it: "But the fifth elder brother has the empress dowager who loves him."
Yinyou raised his head: "All the babies want Erniang to care about him. Although the fifth brother said no, he feels wronged every time he sees Yifei empress holding the ninth or eleventh brother."
"Is that so?" The imperial concubine thought for a while, "Then I haven't noticed it."
"Really, I have seen it many times." The little guy was afraid that Er Niang would not believe his words, so he stomped his feet anxiously, "No matter how much the emperor Mama loves him, there is no way to replace his Er Niang."
"Okay, okay," the imperial concubine put her arms around him, "You are more lenient than your Ama, don't you just let him eat carrots? Er Niang will help you find a way."
The little guy raised his head and showed her a sly smile: "I want to tell Ama, you said he was too strict."
"You dare," the imperial concubine pushed him away, "then I won't help you."
The little guy pounced on him again: "Just kidding, I won't tell Ama!"
"You brat..."
The imperial concubine took her son in the small kitchen to study new carrot recipes, frying and frying, which may not be something that the imperial dining room can't cook.
The little guy gave advice to Er Niang: "Think about something else."
So, the imperial concubine asked people to cut carrots into shreds, wrap them in flour, and put various seasonings inside.
Brush a layer of oil on the pan, put the shredded carrot wrapped in flour into the pan, and bake it into a fragrant carrot cake.
When it was out of the pot, the little guy couldn't wait to have a taste.
"Be careful!"
"S~ss~ it smells so good!"
"..."
After the carrot cake was ready, Yinyou couldn't wait to send it to Brother Wu.
The imperial concubine stopped him: "Are you going now?"
"Otherwise?" Yinyou blinked, "Isn't this provoking you?"
The imperial concubine noticed it, he just wanted to take the opportunity to sneak out to play.So he nodded: "Then you go."
Yinyou has never been to elder brother's place, because he doesn't like that place.He was particularly repelled when he thought that he would leave Eniang and move in one day.
Now that he's grown up, and with Ama's promise, the little guy has let go of his courage.
He was also quite curious about how the elder brothers usually lived in elder brother's house.
The Ganxi No. [-] Institute is located on the west side of the Forbidden City, corresponding to the Gandong No. [-] Institute in the east. They share a palace gate. After entering, there is a narrow and long small square.
Yinyou poked his head into the palace gate, there was no one in the small square, so he walked in boldly.
First came to the first courtyard door, the courtyard door was not closed tightly, leaving a gap in the middle.
The little guy leaned his head forward and looked in through the gap.
