[Qing Chuan] The daily life of the seven princes

"Ah!" Yinyou was so shocked that he bounced to the side.

The little guy came to a strange and novel environment, a little curious and a little scared, and focused all his attention on the yard.Unexpectedly, someone whispered in his ear, which really scared him a lot.

After finally holding on to the pillar to stand firm, when he raised his head, he saw the person who had threatened him just now, standing there with his arms folded, with a smile that was not a smile.

At this time, the guard on duty in the yard heard the movement, and immediately came out to welcome him, opened the door, and stood respectfully on both sides.

"Brother!" The little guy patted his chest to comfort his frightened self, "Why are you scaring me?"

The elder brother snorted coldly, and carried him into the yard: "Aren't you sneaking around the gate of my yard?"

"Where is it?" The little guy quibbled, "I'm just here for the first time, and I'm just curious."

Big Brother asked him: "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to find Fifth Brother and bring him delicious food."

"To whom?" The elder brother showed a surprised expression as if he didn't know the fifth elder brother.

Yinyou replied as a matter of course: "Give it to Brother Wu."

At this time, the two had already walked into the main hall, and the elder brother was sitting on the chair at the front. When the eunuch was serving tea, he also specially ordered: "Give him some jasmine flowers that my mother-in-law brought last time."

Yinyou was afraid of suffering, so he seldom drank tea.But he likes some dried scented tea and milk tea made by Compassion Ning Palace.

The elder brother has gone out with him several times and knows many of his living habits very well.

The jasmine flowers were planted by Concubine Hui in Yanxi Palace, and then they were dried and packed. There were not many in total, and some were kept by herself, and the rest were sent to her precious son.

Yinyou held the teacup and took a sip. The jasmine was fragrant and had a hint of sweetness. He liked it very much, so he shared one of the carrot cake made by Erniang with his elder brother.

Coming out of the elder brother's yard, Yinyou continued to walk in, and just when he came to the door of the next yard, he heard two "barking" sounds from inside.He was overjoyed: "Baifu, it's Baifu!"

As soon as the little guy stepped into the yard door, Baifu rushed out from the back yard, wagging his tail and went straight to Yinyou.

"Momofuku, it's really you Momofuku!"

"Wow woof woof woof woof~"

Baifu hadn't seen Yinyou for a long time, and saw him still shaking his head and tail, circling happily.

Since there is Momofu in the yard, this must be where my brother lives, but my brother really wants to be away from the yard, so I don't know where he has gone.

A eunuch said that the fourth elder brother went to the next yard to find the third elder brother, and asked him to sit in the room and wait for the fourth elder brother to come back.

Yinyou waved his hand: "I'm going to find Fifth Brother, so don't wait."

He walked to the next yard, and happened to see the sixth brother, the eighth brother, and Baotai practicing a set of boxing techniques taught by the master. The three supervised and corrected each other.As they practiced, the three of them started chasing and fighting each other, running all over the yard.

Yinyou poked his head out of the door and looked in. After watching for a long time, he suddenly felt that they were very interesting in elder brother's place.

But why only the sixth brother, the eighth brother and Baotai, where did the fifth brother go?

"I won't play with you anymore, I want to go back to study." The person who spoke was Yinhu, and he walked out of the courtyard after speaking.

Sixth elder brother frowned and complained inside: "Reading again, you are already the best reader among us!"

"It's not good enough... Ah, Seventh Brother!"

As soon as Yinhu stepped out of the far door, he saw Yinyou standing there, and ran over to hold his hand in great surprise: "Why are you here?"

Yinyou smiled at him: "I'll come and see you, do you live in this yard?"

"No, this is the yard where the sixth brother lives, and Baotai and I live next to each other." Seeing that he was so happy, the eighth elder brother refused to let go of his hand, "Do you want to go over and have a look? Ma prepared it for you, and it is well done."

At this time, Brother Six and Baotai saw him coming out, and the three surrounded him, asking him why he came here today, and dragging him into the hall together.

The sixth elder brother turned his head and asked the eighth elder brother: "Don't you want to study? Hurry up."

The eighth elder brother has been sticking tightly to Yinyou's side, refusing to leave: "I'll read it later, it doesn't matter."

"Cut!" Brother Six let out a cold snort, turned his head and saw the food box that Yinyou asked the eunuch to bring over, "What is this?"

"This is something delicious that Er Niang and I made for Fifth Brother. I specially brought it here and gave it to him. You can eat a little too. Er Niang made a lot."

"Ah?" The three looked at each other, "Give it to Fifth Brother?"

Yinyou nodded: "Yes."

"Hey, it's so lively today." At this moment, two more people walked in at the door.San Age's voice came from the yard.

"Little Seven!"

The fourth elder brother and the third elder brother passed by the gate of the sixth elder brother's courtyard. The third elder brother said that it was lively inside and wanted to go in and have a look.The fourth elder brother Xi Jing, originally didn't plan to join in the fun.

However, when he looked up, the servants waiting at the door looked familiar, weren't they the same people who always followed his younger brother?

I was overjoyed, knowing that it was Yinyou who came, so I followed into the courtyard.

When the little guy saw his brother, he immediately jumped on him, and said with a smile, "I saw Baifu in your yard just now."

The fourth elder brother put his arms around him and asked, "Oh, does it still know you?"

"Know, why don't you know?"

The third elder brother saw the plates on the table: "Is the cutie here on a special trip to deliver delicious food to the brothers?"

"No! I prepared this for Fifth Brother. He doesn't like carrots, so Er Niang and I made carrot cakes. You can try it too, but you have to save some more for Fifth Brother."

Eighth Brother shook his head: "It seems that Fifth Brother won't be able to eat today."

Baotai grabbed one in one hand: "Then let me eat more for him."

The third elder brother took a bite first, and commented: "Yes! The craftsmanship of the imperial concubine is really good."

Yinyou looked at everyone blankly: "Why can't the fifth brother eat?"

The fourth elder brother pinched his nose: "Because the fifth younger brother doesn't live in elder brother's house at all, he lives in Ningshou Palace."

"what???"

More than a year ago, when the fifth elder brother first came to study in the upper study, Yinyou knew that Madam Huang didn't want him, so he let him continue to live in Ningshou Palace.

He thought that this year, when the fifth elder brother grew up, he would have already moved into elder brother's residence. Unexpectedly, he was still living in Ningshou Palace.

The little guy was full of confidence, thinking that Wu Ge would like his carrot cake.As a result, he came to the wrong place, and he didn't live here at all.

So, he could only turn his grief and anger into appetite, took one himself, and took a bite.He took another one and stuffed it into the fourth elder brother's mouth: "Brother, you eat too, everyone eats!"

Yinyou played with his brothers at elder brother's office until it was almost dark, and finally had dinner in Yinzhen's yard.He found that his brother's yard was well-maintained, with bamboo and some flowers and plants planted, and there was a shelf in the corner covered with white flowers, and a strong fragrance wafted in the air.

The little guy walked around the shelf and asked his brother, "What is this?"

"Tea millet."

"It's so beautiful." The little guy leaned closer and asked, "It smells so good."

The little guy studied all the plants in his brother's yard, and saw a very prosperous perfume rose.Yinyou couldn't help stretching out his little hand, and the fourth elder brother grabbed his wrist: "Don't move!"

The little guy raised his head and saw his brother's distressed expression, so he stuck out his tongue and found a step for himself: "I don't want to pick it off, I just want to touch it."

The fourth elder brother couldn't help but knocked on his head: "There are thorns on it, which are piercing your hand. If you like it, I'll have someone cut it off and give it to you."

The little guy waved his hand: "No, let it grow beautifully on the branches."

The fourth elder brother led him to stand up and walked into the main hall: "Let's stay tonight and live with my brother, okay?"

"Okay!" The little guy just agreed, and frowned again, "But, if I don't go back, Erniang will be worried."

The fourth elder brother took him to the study room where he usually studied: "I'll send someone to inform Er Niang." He then shouted to the door, "Su Peisheng, send someone to Chengqian Palace."

"Yes!"

For the fourth elder brother, his life has always been very regular.After dinner, take care of the flowers and plants in the yard, then go back to the study and start to review what the master taught today.

Yinyou moved a stool and sat opposite him, randomly picked a book from his bookshelf and began to read.After turning two pages, he didn't understand. The little guy couldn't help but ask his brother, "What's this about?"

Yinzhen raised his head to take a look, and said with a smile, "Look for yourself what's written on the cover."

Yinyou turned the book over and saw that it read "A List of River Defenses", and the author was Pan Jixun.

It turned out that this was a book on river management, and the little guy praised him sincerely: "Wow! My brother is so amazing, I can't even understand the contents of this book."

Yinzhen smiled dotingly at him: "I don't understand either, but as a prince, we have to learn these sooner or later, why not learn to read now."

The little guy nodded, and put the book back untouched: "Then work hard, I'm sure I won't be able to learn it, so I want to read "Journey to the West"."

"I don't have Journey to the West here."

Yinyou stepped on the bookshelf to look through them one by one: "Then I'll look for something else."

He took out a copy of "Prince Anji" from a row of "Four Series Magazines", which he could read because he had memorized Wang Bo's poems, but he had never read Wang Bo's articles.

Just a "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" can deeply attract his attention. From the first sentence, the little guy never left the book.It seems that one cannot truly appreciate the charm of "the first Fu of the ages" after reading it once.

There are too many allusions quoted in it, and Yinyou still can't fully understand some places.But he has a good memory, and he can memorize it after reading it twice.If he didn't understand, he could ask Nalan after class.

In his heart, Rong Ruoke is amazing and knows everything.The last time he read Gu Zhenguan's "Golden Hazel Song", Rong Ruo explained the allusions that he didn't understand.

After an unknown amount of time, the fourth elder brother suddenly stood behind his younger brother and asked him, "Xiao Qi is watching Wang Zi'an's Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng."

Yinyou nodded: "Yeah!"

The fourth elder brother continued to ask: "Which line do you like the most?"

"Purple Electric Blue Cream."

"what?"

The little guy raised his head and laughed, the candlelight cast two spots of brilliance in his eyes: "I want to see what these two ancient swords look like."

The fourth elder brother laughed loudly: "Xiao Qi, why don't you wonder what Teng Jiao Qifeng looks like?"

Yinyou nodded: "I'm also a little curious." He thought for a while and added, "I don't know what it tastes like, whether it tastes good or not."

"..."

At this time, Su Peisheng, who was waiting at the door of the study, suddenly walked in, "Si elder brother, there is a servant outside."

The fourth elder brother frowned: "Who?"

Su Pei paused for a moment, and then said cautiously, "It's someone from Yonghe Palace."

"Eternal Peace Palace?"

Not to mention the fourth elder brother, even Yinyou is a bit novel.Didn't Concubine De always refuse to recognize the son of the fourth elder brother?In her heart, only brother six is ​​her real son.

Why did you send someone over all of a sudden?

The fourth elder brother felt a little disappointed when he heard the word "Yonghe Palace", and originally wanted to shut people out directly.Who knew that the eunuch below had already put the man into the yard.

The eunuch carried a food box, stood outside the main hall and said: "The concubine De concubine ordered the servant to bring some snacks over."

The fourth elder brother was about to say that he didn't need it and asked him to take it away.Unexpectedly, the little guy Yinyou suddenly stood up: "You are on the wrong path, my sixth brother lives next door."

"..."

He looked serious, and it didn't look like he was joking at all.Sincerely thought that the eunuch of Yonghe Palace had gone wrong, which made everyone very embarrassed, but his brother stood aside and couldn't help but want to laugh.

The eunuch bowed: "Back to Seventh Elder Brother, the servant did not go wrong. This box of snacks was given to Fourth Elder Brother by the order of De Concubine Empress."

"Ah?" Yinyou gave a shocked expression, "Ms. De Concubine... give my brother some snacks?"

"Yes."

The little guy waved his hand again: "No need, go back and tell Empress Defei that we have everything in Chengqian Palace, so she doesn't need to worry about it."

"..."

The eunuch raised his head and looked carefully at the slightest change on his face.After watching it for a while, I only felt that Brother Seven was innocent and open-minded, and it didn't seem like there was any truth in what he said.

The fourth elder brother waved impatiently: "Take the things away."

The eunuch stood there for a long time without moving.The fourth elder brother raised his eyebrows: "Is there anything else?"

In fact, the eunuch has already felt the attitude of the fourth elder brother, but he has to finish the things that the master told him one by one before going back.

"Empress Concubine De also asked a servant to deliver a message to you."

The fourth elder brother said coldly: "I don't want to hear it."

His younger brother pricked up his ears: "I want to hear it."

"..."

The fourth elder brother glanced at the little guy, but he had no choice but to say to the eunuch: "You tell me."

The eunuch lowered his head, but never raised his head: "The Empress Defei said, I want you to be filial to the imperial concubine, she has the kindness to nurture you."

"..."

But Yinyou suddenly said: "My mother is the imperial concubine."

The eunuch was frightened to death, his knees softened, and he knelt on the ground: "Slave... I know."

The fourth elder brother turned his head to look at his younger brother, but he didn't understand why he said that suddenly.

The other elder brother, at Yinyou's age, already knows how to give orders to court ladies and eunuchs.But he never, no matter who he is talking to, he always smiles, and most of the time he speaks in a negotiating tone, and never shouts at people.

With an innocent smile on his face now, he asked the eunuch: "Do you know why my mother-in-law is an imperial concubine?"

"Because..." When asked this question, the eunuch really didn't know how to answer, so he could only boast: "Because Your Majesty is virtuous..."

Before he could finish speaking, Seventh Brother had already given the answer directly: "Because my mother never cares about other things."

"..."

The fourth elder brother almost didn't laugh, and waved his hand: "You step back."

Then he led his younger brother back to the study room: "It's still early, Xiaoqi, do you want to read the book for a while?"

The little guy stretched his waist: "I'm tired, I don't want to watch it."

"Then why don't you read books with brother for a while?"

Yinyou thought for a while, moved the stool beside his brother, sat down and said with a smile, "Look, I'll be right here with you."

The fourth elder brother supported his forehead. The "accompany" he said was not the "accompany" that his younger brother understood.

He shook his head, and couldn't help pinching his younger brother's nose: "Little rascal, there's really nothing you can do about it."

Yinyou picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. It contained plums and hawthorns that his elder brother asked the palace people to soak for him, and added sugar. It tasted sour and sweet, and it also appetized and invigorated the spleen. He liked it very much.

He took a big gulp contentedly, and just as he put down the teacup, he turned his head and saw his brother picking up a book.

The little guy immediately jumped over curiously: "Let me see, what is this!"

He wanted to read it, but the fourth elder brother had to let him read it. The little guy read the title of the book on the cover: ""The Book of Virtuous Virtue"?"

"Yes."

Yinyou asked again: "Is it a Buddhist scripture? I really want to copy it for Madam Ukuma."

"Forget it," the fourth elder brother opened it for his younger brother to read. "It contains some Jataka stories of Buddha. Look, there are also illustrations."

The candlelight flickered a little, and the little guy couldn't see clearly, so he leaned out half of his body to look.

The fourth elder brother simply picked him up and let him sit on his lap.The two brothers watched a story about Buddha Sakyamuni's past life together.

It is said that the three princes of the king of Baodian Kingdom went hunting together in the mountains and saw a tigress leading several cubs so hungry that the tigress decided to eat her cubs.

At this time, the third prince sent the two elder brothers away with an excuse, and lay down in front of the tigress himself.

The tigress was too hungry to eat, so the third prince went to find a wooden thorn, stabbed his body, let the tigress and his blood, and when the tigress regained its strength, he took the cubs to eat the third prince.

When the elder brothers found him, the third prince had already turned into a pile of bones. The king and his son rushed to the mountain, holding his bones in agony, and finally had no choice but to collect his son's bones and build a pagoda to enshrine.

After reading this story, Yinyou's eyes widened: "This..."

The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "The little prince is born with a compassionate heart, just like our little seven."

The little guy immediately jumped up when he heard what his brother said, and quickly waved his two hands: "No, no, no, this little prince is probably a fool, I am different from him."

"Xiaoqi," said the fourth elder brother pretending to be angry, "Don't be disrespectful to the Buddha. You can't let Mama Ukuma or Ama Khan hear these words."

"Um..." The little guy rolled his eyes, "Well, didn't they go hunting? Can't they kill another animal to feed the tiger?"

The fourth elder brother closed the book and began to argue with his younger brother: "However, beating another animal and feeding it to a tiger is considered killing. How can it be considered compassion?"

Yinyou was surprised and said: "But didn't the little prince follow his elder brother to hunt in the mountains at the beginning, isn't hunting just killing?"

"You see, at the end of the story, the little prince has compassion and pity for all things. Because of his kind deed of sacrificing his life to feed a tiger, he was reborn in Tushita Heaven."

Yinyou pointed to a scripture and said: "You see, as his parents, when he thinks of his tragic death, his heart aches. This kind of distress and sadness cannot be described in words. Even if he holds on to the great compassion vow, But why make parents so distressed?"

The little guy finally concluded: "Since you have compassion in your heart and pity all things, can't you pity your parents?"

"The last time I accompanied Ama on a southern tour, I went to the Sacrifice Cliff of Mount Tai. It is said that many people jumped off the cliff with their bodies to pray for their sick parents. Ama seriously criticized such behavior. The parents of the parents should not be easily damaged, and people have built a wall and sent people to guard it, so that no one is allowed to jump off the cliff again."

"..."

The fourth elder brother originally planned to take his younger brother to read the Jataka stories in the Buddhist scriptures, but unexpectedly, he gave him a lesson.

People look at such a small mouth, how can this small mouth speak so well?

The fourth elder brother dragged him over and hugged him again: "From now on, when I study with you, I can only read the things you can't understand. Next time I will read the "River Defense Overview"."

The little guy picked up the pen holder on the table and played in his hand: "Don't look, I'm sleepy and want to sleep."

The next day when we arrived at the study room, everyone went to tell Fifth Prince that thanks to him, we ate very delicious carrot cake yesterday.

The fifth elder brother looked puzzled. How could the cake made of carrots be delicious? The key point is, what does this have to do with him?

Only the eighth elder brother is a good person, so I told him about the matter roughly.

Then the fifth elder brother quit, and insisted on pulling Yinyou to give it to him again, directly to Ningshou Palace, and he ate it alone, and no one else was allowed to touch it.

Yinyou looked at him with a smile: "But, fifth brother, you don't like carrots."

Fifth elder brother patted his chest: "I promise to eat all the ones you sent!"

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was the day when Kangxi sent the Empress Dowager out of the palace every year to escape the summer heat.By the way, he walks around with himself.

This time it is still bringing the elder brother, the prince, the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother.The other younger princes stayed in the palace to study.

Of course Yinyou is also young and needs to stay in the palace to study.But who told the empress dowager to love him, the imperial concubine couldn't leave him.He was always the exception and could follow Amma everywhere.

However, just a few days after they left the palace, Kangxi took a few princes for a walk in Nanyuan, and when he returned to the palace, he found that the little guy Yinyou was in a bad mood.

Kangxi asked him: "Aren't you happy to have roasted rabbit legs for dinner?"

Yinyou didn't speak, and stood there frowning, very displeased his Ama.

Kangxi looked at him, and always felt that this little brat was a little abnormal today: "What's wrong with you, what's wrong with you?"

Yinyou nodded: "I feel uncomfortable."

"..."

The old father took a deep breath: "Who has provoked you again, and I feel uncomfortable."

The little guy raised his head and said seriously: "I miss Brother Six?"

"He's doing well in the palace, what do you want him to do?"

Yinyou shook his head: "He coughed a little when he went out, I was worried."

"He just got some wind evil, and he will be fine in a few days, so don't worry."

"It's been three days, and I don't know if he's better or not. I want to go back to the palace to see him."

No matter how it sounds, it sounds like the son is making excuses for his unreasonable troubles: "If you don't let you out, you have to follow, and if you are brought out, you have to go back to the palace."

The little guy pouted: "I...I just want to go back and see Brother Six."

Kangxi turned around and left: "You'd better stay honest, otherwise you don't want to go out with me next time."

"..."

As a result, that night, Yinyou dreamed of his sixth brother.

In the dream, it was in the evening, and Sixth Brother was sitting in front of the gate of a courtyard. The setting sun slanted over, illuminating half of his face, while the other half was hidden in the shadows.

Yinyou found out that this was their summer palace the year before last. This courtyard was a bit remote, and it was the place where Noble Concubine Niu Yulu lived at that time.He once sat there chatting with Sixth Brother, and Sixth Brother talked to him about Concubine De.

Yinyou still remembers it very clearly. At that time, the sixth brother said to him: "I miss my mother-in-law."

No no, it seems wrong.

In a blink of an eye, he was already sitting next to Sixth Brother, the eyebrows in front of him overlapped with those of two years ago, Sixth Brother said to him: "Xiaoqi, I miss my mother-in-law."

Yinyou grabbed his hand, as if grabbing a piece of iron, which made him subconsciously want to throw it away.But when he looked down, it was indeed Sixth Brother's hand, and he held it tightly without hesitation: "If you miss her, go see her, Ama and Erniang have forgiven her long ago, and now she can freely enter and leave the Yonghe Palace .”

Yinzuo shook his head and said, "You're right. Although my mother-in-law has done many bad things, I know that she is doing it for my own good."

Yinyou nodded: "Yes, she is doing it for your own good, so no matter what, you should treat her well."

"But I don't have the chance to live with her anymore, Xiaoqi, you can take care of her for me in the future."

"I don't want it!" Yinyou shouted at him, "She's not my mother-in-law, and I don't like her, so I don't want to take care of her, you take care of her."

But as soon as he finished speaking, it was completely dark.Yinyou turned his head and saw that Yinzuo, who was sitting beside him, suddenly disappeared.

"Sixth Brother, Sixth Brother!!!"

The little guy woke up from his dream by yelling "Six Brothers". The voice woke up Li Xi and Nanny Sun who were outside, and they didn't have time to put on their shoes, so they hurried in and asked him what's wrong.

Li Xi rushed over, quickly picked up the child, and reached out to touch his forehead: "What's the matter, this is, you're sick again?"

However, apart from feeling the sweat on her palm, she didn't find anything abnormal about Yinyou's body temperature: "I'm not sick."

Nanny Sun took a piece of handkerchief to wipe the little guy's sweat: "It must be a nightmare, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the child tends to be irritable and restless."

Yinyou suddenly raised his head: "Aunt Xi, I want to go back to the palace."

Li Xi touched his small face: "Oh brother, don't talk about going back to the palace anymore, you still made the emperor unhappy during the day, you forget about it."

The little guy was so anxious that he was about to cry, and he couldn't tell others that he was dreaming again. This time he dreamed that Brother Six was about to die, so he could only say stubbornly, "But I really want to go back to the palace."

Nanny Sun patted him on the back lightly: "Go to sleep, go to sleep..."

Under the persuasion of Nanny Sun and Li Xi, Yinyou lay down. He closed his eyes and tried hard to fall asleep, hoping to see that fairy in his dream, or Sixth Brother.

However, he couldn't fall asleep again in the second half of the night, so he could only close his eyes and practice the mental method, hoping to see the god in this way.

It wasn't until dawn that Li Xi came in to call him and change his clothes, only to find that his eyes were red: "If my brother feels uncomfortable, can we Xuan Tai heal?"

Yinyou shook his head: "I'm going to find Ama and let him go back to the palace."

Li Xi held him back: "Don't go, be careful and get beaten again."

At this time, the imperial concubine walked in from the door, saw her son's haggard face, and asked in surprise: "What's the matter? I didn't sleep well last night, or did I just cry, and I'm still on my way today?"

The little guy threw himself into her arms: "Emiang, I want to go back to the palace!"

"Why, when you were in the palace, didn't you argue all day long to come out and play?"

"I miss Sixth Brother, I dreamed about him last night."

The imperial concubine frowned. The last time his son was so persistent in wanting to see someone, that person was Nalan. Later, the little guy even saved one of them because of it.

Is it...

When drinking milk and eating breakfast, Yinyou looked depressed, and the Empress Dowager noticed it, and squinted at him: "What's wrong with Xiaoqi?"

The little guy was about to bring him back to the palace, but was glared at by the imperial concubine.He knew that Mama Ukuma should not be worried, so he shook his head: "Didn't sleep well."

He was raised by the Empress Dowager, whether he has something on his mind or whether he has lied can be seen at a glance.

At this time Kangxi also came in from the outside, the little guy immediately rushed over and hugged his leg, tears were already rolling in his eyes: "Ama..."

Kangxi really couldn't do anything about this brat: "Yesterday, I ordered you to check on Lao Liu's condition for you, so I can feel at ease now."

Even if he said that, Yinyou couldn't calm down.

The empress dowager at the side understood that this little boy didn't want to drink tea, and he was unhappy when he got up early in the morning. It turned out that he was worried about his brother's health.

Looking at him like this, if he doesn't get news that the sixth elder brother is safe and sound, he will not feel at ease.

The old ancestor always doted on him, so he said to Kangxi: "It's hot today, I'm a little tired, let's rest in the palace for a day before going on the road."

Although Kangxi knew that it was the emperor's grandmother spoiling Yinyou, this little brat, but he couldn't help it, who made him filial.

However, at noon, he received a message from the palace. The messenger was almost suffering from heat stroke, so he knew how urgent the message was.

Kangxi opened it and took a look, his face changed: "Liang Jiugong, get up and go back to the palace!"

The imperial concubine took the letter over and took a look. It said that brother Liu, who was just a little cold due to wind-heat, suddenly had a high fever last night, and it has not subsided until now.

It is impossible for Kangxi to rush back with the empress dowager, so he can only let Prince Yu, Prince Gong, and a few sons stay with the old ancestor, and he will go back to see his son first.

At this time, Yinyou pulled the imperial concubine and ran out of the house: "Ama, Ama, we will go back with you!"

Kangxi glanced at the imperial concubine, and wanted her to go back to take care of his ancestors.Before he could speak, the imperial concubine walked over first: "Let me go back to the palace with you, otherwise my son will not feel at ease."

Kangxi glanced at Yinyou again, didn't say anything, just beckoned and pulled the mother and son into the carriage.

Fortunately, for the past few days they left the palace, they didn't rush on their way so that their ancestors wouldn't have to work so hard.Kangxi also stopped in Nanyuan for a day in order to go around.It's not too far to go back to the Forbidden City now.

Along the way, Kangxi did not speak.The imperial concubine and Yinyou also sat beside him quietly.

Suddenly, the imperial concubine felt her wrist tighten.Looking down, it was Kangxi's hand holding hers.

"Regardless of Concubine De, Yin Zuo is my son after all."

The imperial concubine didn't know who he was speaking to, did he think that he would ignore Liu elder brother's life or death because of Concubine De?

Kangxi sighed: "There are many diseases that can cause persistent high fever. The most common one is acne. I have to worry about it."

It turned out that he was talking about it for himself, and he was worried that the sixth elder brother had smallpox.

The imperial concubine patted the back of his hand: "Don't worry, people who have been inoculated with cowpox will not be infected with smallpox. Besides, there has been no smallpox in the palace for a long time."

Not to mention the palace, since the popularization of vaccinia two years ago, the incidence of smallpox among the people has also gradually decreased.But after all, transportation and communication are underdeveloped, and it will take time for nationwide popularization.

It was almost dark when they returned to the palace, and they didn't know how Yin Zuo was doing.

Kangxi's lunch was useless, and a servant advised him to have some dinner first, but he yelled back: "Go to elder brother's place!"

The courtyard where Sixth Prince lived had many people standing inside and outside, and the palace people waiting outside knew that Concubine De had also come.

Before getting off the carriage, the imperial concubine did not forget to turn around and tell her son: "You can't get down, I'll send you back to Chengqian Palace."

How can Yinyou put his face down at ease, brother six, he is afraid that if he returns to Chengqian Palace, if he lies down and dreams, brother six will be gone.

So, as soon as the imperial concubine walked away, he jumped off the carriage with his back foot.He followed closely behind Ama and Er Niang, and was about to enter the yard.

The servant behind him tried to stop him, but he deftly dodged it.The little guy took a step and was about to step over the courtyard gate.Suddenly, Kangxi and the imperial concubine turned around together and yelled at him at the same time: "Don't follow in!"

The little guy shivered in fright, retracted his legs, and was hugged obediently by Zhao Cheng and got back into the carriage.

Zhao Cheng was about to let the carriage return to Chengqian Palace, but Yinyou poked his head out: "Don't go, wait, wait!"

The imperial concubine walked into the room and saw Yinzuo lying on the bed, her little face was red as if she had just been fished out of a pot, her teeth were clenched tightly, her body was trembling under the quilt.Concubine De was sitting in front of the bed, crying and tucking him in the quilt.
