[Comprehensive Wear] A good brother's life

The empress dowager felt relieved when she learned that elder brother was not as good as Yinfeng in reading.In her old man's heart, the elder brother's excellence must not exceed that of the prince.

Although the prince is slightly inferior to the elder brother in riding and shooting, he is far superior to the elder brother in reading, which makes the empress dowager very pleased and satisfied.

The Empress Dowager asked with concern about the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the prince and elder brother.Currently, Elder Brother lives alone in Elder Brother's house.The prince lives in Yuqing Palace.

The eldest elder brother said that it is very good for him to live alone in the elder brother's house, and the people below take good care of him, so don't worry about the empress dowager.

Not to mention the prince, he has been the crown prince since he was a child, and there are countless people around him to serve him, so the basic necessities of life are naturally excellent.

The empress dowager still had something to tell Kangxi, and after chatting with the prince and elder brother for a while, she asked them to leave first.He also asked them to take Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi with them when they left.

This is the first time that Xiao Yinzhen met the prince and elder brother since he traveled to this world.The two of them are still young, and both are still young ladies.

The prince doesn't look very much like Kangxi, he should look like his biological mother, Queen Hesheli.The eldest elder brother looks a bit like Kangxi, especially the outline of the face, which has a three-quarter likeness.

The elder brother's patience is obviously not as good as the prince's, he dislikes Xiao Yinzhen and the others for walking too slowly.

Xiao Yinzhen saw that both the prince and elder brother had something to do, so he said very intimately that they wanted to play and would not return to Jingren Palace for the time being.

Seeing that Liang Shengrong was there, the prince and elder brother left in peace.Before leaving, he told Liang Shengrong to take good care of Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi.

"Fourth brother, the elder brother is a bit fierce." Yinzhi was frightened by the elder brother, and he didn't speak just now.

Xiao Yinzhen nodded very approvingly: "It's a bit fierce."

"His Royal Highness is not as fierce as elder brother, but His Royal Highness is scarier than elder brother."

Xiao Yinzhen understood Yinzhi's meaning: "After all, it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Although the crown prince is only seven years old this year, he has been named the crown prince since he was a child, and he has been the crown prince for several years now, so he will naturally have a sense of majesty.

Yinzhi pulled Xiao Yinzhen's hand, and said very softly: "I don't like eldest brother and His Royal Highness the crown prince." Children are more sensitive, and can intuitively feel whether others like him or not.Yinzhi could feel that the prince and elder brother didn't like him and little Yinzhen very much. "Fourth brother, do you like them?"

After all, the prince and elder brother are several years older than Xiao Yinzhen and the others, and they have never played together since they were young, so they naturally have no relationship with these two little kids.Furthermore, they were anxious to go back to Shang's study, so naturally they had no patience with Xiao Yinzhen and the others.

"I don't like it very much either."

Seeing that the fourth brother was like him, Yinzhi smiled very happily. He held Xiao Yinzhen's hand tightly and said, "I like fourth brother."

Xiao Yinzhen smiled and said, "I also like Third Brother."

Seeing that his fourth brother liked him, Yinzhi smiled even more happily.

"Fourth brother, let's catch butterflies."

"Third brother, we didn't bring the net, we should go back to Jingren Palace to get the net first." It is estimated that Er Niang and Empress Rong are worried about them.

"Okay, go back and get the net first."

The two brothers held hands and walked up and down.

Liang Shengrong walked behind the two elder brothers, seeing their appearance, couldn't help being happy.

In the Palace of Mercy Ning, the Empress Dowager did not rush to talk about Wei Chang's presence, but instead talked about Elder Brother's affairs.

"Big Brother is not young anymore, it's time to arrange Ge Ge for him." Big Brother is nine years old this year, and will arrange Ge Ge to take care of him in two years. "Emperor, it's time to arrange a draft." Because of the chaos in San Francisco, Kangxi has no intention of drafting, so there has been no drafting in recent years.

Kangxi thought for a while and said: "If the rebellion can be completely suppressed by the end of this year, then we will arrange a draft next year. If the rebellion is still not suppressed by the end of this year, we will arrange a draft in two years."

"Now the good news is spreading to the capital one after another. I think the rebellion will be put down by the end of this year."

"It would be best if the rebellion can be put down by the end of this year." Kangxi said, "It doesn't matter if the draft is a year or two late."

The Empress Dowager saw that Kangxi was still not in the mood for the draft, so she didn't talk about the draft. After all, the rebellion hadn't been put down for a day, which really made people feel uneasy.

"Let's not talk about the draft, big brother's Fujin, do you have someone in mind?"

"Is there anyone in my mind?" Kangxi didn't answer first, but asked the Empress Dowager instead.

"I have a few candidates in mind, the emperor, let's see what you think..." Although the elder brother is only nine years old now, Fujin's candidates can be arranged first, and the elder brother can get married in a few years.

Manchus get married relatively early, usually when they are 13 years old. The elder brother is only four years away from 13 years old, so his marriage should be prepared in advance.

"Emperor Mama's thoughts coincide with mine, but Baoqing is still young, don't worry at this moment, I plan to take another look."

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly: "It's good to see more." After finishing speaking, she talked about Niu Hulu, "Emperor, this time Concubine Shu accompanied Ai's family and the Queen Mother to pray for blessings. Not only did she take good care of Ai The family and the queen mother also prayed for you and Daqing very piously, shouldn't you reward her?"

When Kangxi heard what the Empress Dowager said, he knew what she was thinking.

"Huang Mama, how do you want me to reward her?"

"She also followed us to pray for blessings this time. This kind of heart is really rare, and it is also a great achievement. The emperor might as well make her a noble concubine." The successor younger sister, it is reasonable for her to be named a noble concubine, what do you think?"

When Kangxi heard the words, he said with emotion in his heart that Mama Huang really didn't give up and tried every means to make Niu Hulu a noble concubine.

"Imperial Mama, I don't think that Niu Hulu is qualified to be a noble concubine."

"Why is Concubine Shu not qualified?" The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "She is qualified no matter her origin or herself. Besides, it is a great achievement for her to pray with us this time."

"She is not worthy." Kangxi frowned slightly, his expression turned cold, "As far as her virtue is concerned, she is not even qualified to be a concubine. I only agreed to her being sealed as soon as she entered the palace because of your face, Huang Mama." concubine."

When the Empress Dowager saw Kangxi mentioning Niu Hulu's family, she showed disgust. She was very helpless and at the same time very puzzled.

"Emperor, you have misunderstood Concubine Shu."

"I have not misunderstood her. I know exactly what kind of virtue she is." Kangxi said in a deep voice, "Concubine, she is not worthy! Mama Ma, I will never agree to this matter!"

"Emperor, how can Concubine Shu be worse than the Tong family?" The Empress Dowager didn't think Niu Hulu was qualified to be a noble concubine, "Shu Concubine's background is much nobler than Tong's."

"The Niu Hulu family is nowhere comparable to my cousin." In Kangxi's eyes, Niu Hulu's face is not as good as Concubine Tong Gui, "Imperial Mama, I know you don't like the Han army flag, but Huang Ama and I both advocate the Man-Han family, the Qing Dynasty needs Han people, I hope you will pay more attention in the future."

Hearing what Kangxi said, the Empress Dowager was a little unhappy, but she couldn't say anything.

"My concubine is only my cousin. Mama Mama will not say anything about making Niu Hulu her concubine again." Kangxi said in a strong tone, "No matter how many times you say it, I will never agree!"

The Empress Dowager did not expect Kangxi to dislike the Niu Hulu family so much, "Okay, the Ai family will not mention Concubine Shu as a noble concubine in the future, but is it not good for you to keep Concubine Shu in the air like this? Concubine Shu entered the palace two or three times. It's been years, and you haven't checked her brand once, why do you want to set up Niu Hulu's house? Isn't it inappropriate for you to favor the Wei family but not the Shu concubine?"

"I let her enter the palace to become a concubine, and I have already given Niu Hulu's family face." Kangxi had a straight face, and his tone was unabashedly disliked and disliked, "Wei's temperament is gentle and submissive, and he never tells the truth, while Niu Hulu Lu's temperament is vulgar, restless, and likes to tell tales."

"Do you think Concubine Shu is inferior to Wei Shi?"

"Not as good."

The Empress Dowager felt that Kangxi's words were too much, so she shouted slightly dissatisfied: "Emperor!"

"Imperial Mama, I let Niu Hulu into the palace and gave her the concubine position, which is my greatest favor to her." Kangxi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone was a little dangerous, "If she is not satisfied, she wants to be a noble concubine." If you still want my favor, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Seeing that Kangxi was angry, the Empress Dowager couldn't go on talking, otherwise the grandparents and grandchildren would have to argue about Concubine Shu again.

"Aside from concubine Shu, isn't it inappropriate for you to favor the Wei family only?" From the Empress Dowager's point of view, Wei Changzai came from a humble background, and Kangxi would spoil Kangxi's reputation if he only favored her.The most important thing is that Wei Changzai is too beautiful, and the Empress Dowager is worried that Kangxi will be fascinated by her beauty.

Wei Changzai's beauty, not to mention that men will be moved by seeing it, even women will hold back the desire to love her and cherish her.The Empress Dowager was always worried that what happened to Dong E's family would happen to her grandson.

"Huang Mama, I know it well, you don't have to worry." Kangxi knew what the Empress Dowager was worried about. He was not Huang Ama, and the Wei family was not Dong E's.What happened to Huang Ama and Dong Eshi will never happen to him.

The Empress Dowager took a deep look at Kangxi: "I hope you really know."

"I've always had it in my heart."

The Empress Dowager saw that the atmosphere between them was a bit uncomfortable, so she stopped talking about Wei Chang's presence and changed the subject to talk about Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi.

"The fourth elder brother surprised the Ai family."

"What did Yinzhen do to surprise Huang Mama?"

"This child is smart and playful..." The Empress Dowager told Kangxi what Xiao Yinzhen had said to her before, and the matter of giving her a snack, "This child is still protecting the third elder brother, saying that the third elder brother is shy, Let Aijia not blame the third elder brother."

After Kangxi heard this, he was surprised and pleasantly surprised: "My cousin taught Yinzhen very well."

The Empress Dowager nodded and said: "The imperial concubine did teach the fourth elder brother very well. This child is smart, sensible, and filial."

Kangxi smiled and said, "I'm not too brave."

"The third elder brother is worse than the fourth elder brother."

"Because Yinzhi is not in good health, she has been spoiled by Concubine Rong in recent years." Kangxi sighed, "It's still my cousin who will educate the children."

Hearing that Kangxi was praising Concubine Tong again, the Empress Dowager said angrily: "Okay, the Ai family knows that your cousin is good, and also taught the fourth elder brother well."

"Huang Mama, since I think my cousin taught Yinzhen well, shouldn't I reward my cousin?"

Kangxi learned this trick from the Empress Dowager, after all, the Empress Dowager asked Niu Hulu for a reward.

The Empress Dowager laughed angrily at Kangxi's words, pointed at Kangxi and scolded, "You child..."

"Imperial Mama asked Niu Hulu for a reward, and I can also ask for a reward for my cousin."

The empress dowager said angrily: "The noble concubine raised the fourth elder brother, shouldn't she raise the fourth elder brother well?" The empress dowager returned this sentence to Kangxi.

"Emperor Mama doesn't want to reward, and I don't force it." Seeing that it was getting late, Kangxi stood up and bid farewell to the Empress Dowager, "Emperor Mama, I still have memorials to approve, so I'll go back to the imperial study first."

"Go get busy."

After Kangxi left the Compassionate Ning Palace, the Empress Dowager said to the Empress Dowager, "Look at how much the emperor protects the Tong family."

The queen mother said with a smile: "The noble concubine is the emperor's cousin, and it is normal for the emperor to protect her."

The Empress Dowager shook her head helplessly: "The Tong family can't compare to Concubine Shu."

The Queen Mother didn't think so, she felt that Concubine Shu was not as good as Concubine Tong.

The Empress Dowager said with a deep expression: "We will talk about it after the Sanpan Rebellion is over."

The queen mother knew what the empress dowager meant, hesitated for a while, and finally said nothing.

At this time, Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi had returned to Jingren Palace.

Concubine Tong called Xiao Yinzhen to her side, and asked him gently what happened afterwards.

Xiao Yinzhen told Concubine Tong and Concubine Rong what happened after Concubine Tong and the others left in very detailed and clear terms.

"The ancestors have something to say to Khan Ama, so let the prince brother and the others take us away."

At this time, Yinzhi told Pin Rong that he didn't like the elder brother and the prince, and thought they were too fierce.

Concubine Rong told the third elder brother that such words should not be said again in the future.

Although the third elder brother didn't understand why he couldn't speak, he nodded obediently.

"Emiang, third brother wants to compete with me in catching butterflies, let's go to the Royal Garden."

Concubine Tong saw that it was still early for lunch, so she and Concubine Rong took little Yinzhen, Yinzhi, and the three princesses to the Imperial Garden.

When they arrived at the Royal Garden, the competition between Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi began.The two little guys are holding a catch net and running around chasing butterflies.

Concubine Tong and Concubine Rong sat in the gazebo, loudly reminding the three children to be careful and not to fall from time to time.

When Kangxi returned to the imperial study, he passed the imperial garden, and heard Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi's cries from a distance, and walked towards them.

Seeing the emperor coming, Concubine Tong and Concubine Rong hurried forward to salute: "The concubine has seen the emperor."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Kangxi looked at Xiao Yinzhen who was chasing butterflies with a catch net not far away, and said with a smile, "Are they catching butterflies again?"

"The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother are competing to catch butterflies."

"It's a competition." Kangxi walked to Concubine Tong, took her hand and walked into the gazebo.

Concubine Rong personally poured Kangxi a cup of tea, "Your Majesty, please use tea." After she finished speaking, she said, "The third elder brother is not convinced that the fourth elder brother caught more butterflies than him last time, so he has to compete with the fourth elder brother to catch butterflies." .”

"Yinzhi is not convinced?"

"The third elder brother feels that he is an older brother and cannot lose to his younger brother, so he competes with the fourth elder brother."

"It's not bad that Yinzhi has such a heart."

Not far away, Xiao Yinzhen and Yinzhi didn't pay attention, and they bumped into each other face to face.Xiao Yinzhen, who was knocked to the ground, was the first to react, got up and pressed Yinzhi.

The third elder brother was stunned for a moment, and then resisted.The two brothers hugged each other and rolled on the ground.

Kangxi couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene: "Are the two brothers catching butterflies or wrestling?"

Xiao Yinzhen accidentally touched the third elder brother's armpit, and the third elder brother laughed loudly.Seeing this scene, Xiao Yinzhen gave a smirk, and stretched out his hand to scratch the third elder brother's armpit.
