Yinzhen, the fifth elder brother, the sixth elder brother, the seventh elder brother, the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother came to the East Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace. They first greeted Kangxi, and then saluted the crown prince, Zhijun king and third elder brother one by one .

Seeing that his sons had come, Kangxi said lovingly, "Sit down."

The prince sat on Kangxi's left, and Zhijun Wang sat on Kangxi's right.

The third elder brother sat beside the prince, and Yinzhen sat beside the third elder brother.

The fifth elder brother sat beside Zhijun Wang, and the ninth elder brother sat next to the fifth elder brother.The sixth elder brother and the seventh elder brother sat beside Yinzhen, and the eighth elder brother sat beside the ninth elder brother.

The food-testing eunuch is trying out one dish after another.

Kangxi first asked the eighth and ninth elder brothers what they learned in the morning with concern, then asked the sixth and seventh elder brothers, and finally asked Yinzhen and fifth elder brothers.

Knowing that Yinzhen and San Age were studying Western things in Tang Ruowang, Kangxi also asked them about this aspect.

After Yinzhen and San Age spoke briefly, they were praised by Kangxi.

The food-testing eunuch tasted all the dishes without any problems.

Only then did Kangxi pick up the bowl and chopsticks: "Dinner."

You can't say a word when dining in Qianqing Palace, and the atmosphere on the table is very quiet.

After eating for a while, Kangxi asked Liang Jiugong to serve the prince with dishes, all of which were the prince's favorite dishes.

The prince immediately smiled gratefully at Kangxi: "Xiehan Ama."

Kangxi then asked Liang Jiugong to cook for the elder brother.The elder brother likes to brag about meat, and Liang Jiugong picks up all the dishes for the elder brother.

Next, San Age and Yinzhen both got cloth dishes from Liang Jiugong.

While eating, Yinzhen sighed in his heart: "Khan Ama is really fair."

The dining atmosphere became a little more cozy.

After lunch, Kangxi did not let his sons leave, but drank tea and chatted with them.

"Khan Ama, the weather is very good these days. My son wants to invite my elder brother and younger brother to go to a horse race." The prince said with a smile, "This kind of good weather is most suitable for horseback riding. Besides, the younger brothers will feel bored if they have been studying in the minister's study." , It’s nice to go out and ride a horse once in a while.”

Kangxi thought the prince's suggestion was good, "You are right, this weather is suitable for horseback riding."

"If Khan Ama agrees, my son will invite my elder brother and younger brothers to ride horses tomorrow."

Kangxi nodded slightly: "I agree." After finishing speaking, he suddenly smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I went out to ride a horse. Tomorrow I will go out with you to ride a horse."

"Khan Ama took us out to ride horses. Naturally, we can't wish for it." The prince said, "The son will make good arrangements, Khan Ama, and we will go out for horseback riding together in the future. Do you think it will be okay?"

"Okay, that's it." Kangxi said with a smile, "Prince, you arrange it."

"Don't worry, Khan Ama, my son will make arrangements."

Yinzhen and the others had to go to the school grounds for class, so they got up to leave after drinking tea for a while.

Kangxi suddenly became interested, so he took the prince and elder brother to the school grounds to watch Yinzhen and the others take riding and archery lessons.

Brother Six and Brother Nine saw Kangxi and they were also going to the school grounds, and they shouted "It's over" in their hearts.

When they arrived at the school grounds, Kangxi asked the prince and eldest elder brother to show Yinzhen and his younger brothers.

Although the prince is good at literature, he is also good at martial arts.His riding and shooting is not as good as that of big brother, but it is not bad.

Kangxi asked the prince and elder brother to act at the same time, and then the two began to compete secretly.

Standing beside the third elder brother, Yinzhen asked in a low voice: "Third brother, where is this song coming from?" Except for the festivals and New Years, the brothers seldom get together for dinner. What happened today, Kangxi They actually called all their brothers to Qianqing Palace for dinner. "Also, what is the prince thinking?"

The third elder brother said in a low voice: "I don't know about Khan Ama coming out. The Prince's coming out should be to test you."

"Try me for what?" Yinzhen thought to himself, it really is.

"Today, many ministers praised you for your good writing and painting in the court hall." The third elder brother continued softly while staring at the prince and eldest elder brother shooting arrows, "Khan Ama heard the ministers say so Said, I also praised you a lot."

Yinzhen frowned slightly: "No wonder the prince wants to ride a horse."

"More than that, after Khan Ama praised you, some ministers praised the imperial concubine, and then praised the Tong family." Although the third elder brother's voice was small, his tone became serious, "Although Master Tong has no Action, but more and more ministers in the DPRK and China support you."

"Is it because of this that the prince is afraid?"

"Not yet. At present, there are some ministers who support you, but not many." The third elder brother continued, "The ministers who support you are much worse than the ministers who support the elder brother. For the prince, the biggest The threat is still big brother."

Yinzhen thought for a while and said, "Third brother, did you tell the prince that I want to help him when I enter the court?"

"I mentioned it today. The prince wants to do this horseback riding outing just to test whether you really want to help him, or if you have other plans." The third elder brother said, "The day after tomorrow, the eldest brother may also find you."

At this time, Kangxi stopped the prince and elder brother.

Yinzhen said to the third elder brother: "Third elder brother, let's talk tonight."

The third elder brother nodded lightly and didn't say anything more.

Kangxi called Yinzhen and fifth elder brother over and asked them to shoot arrows for him to see.

Yinzhen didn't hide his clumsiness just because the prince and elder brother were there, because Kangxi would often come to the school grounds to watch them ride and shoot.Kangxi knew Yinzhen's riding and shooting skills very well. If he deliberately shot badly, Kangxi could tell at a glance.

Ten arrows, each of which hit the bull's-eye.

Fifth elder brother, ten arrows hit nine arrows, and the remaining one missed the bull's-eye.

The crown prince and the elder brother praised Yinzhen and the fifth elder brother without hesitation, "I didn't expect that the fourth brother is not only good at calligraphy and painting, but also good at archery."

Kangxi glanced at the crown prince and elder brother, and said with a smile, "Yinzhen's riding and shooting are no worse than when you were young."

Yinzhen said humbly: "Ama Khan, how can my son compare with elder brother and second elder brother."

The elder brother smiled heartily: "Fourth brother, you are humble, your archery is no worse than me and the prince."

"It can't be compared with the elder brother when he was a child."

The elder brother was about to say something, Kangxi called the sixth elder brother and seventh elder brother to him and asked them to shoot arrows.

Brother Six was physically weak since he was a child, and Kangxi had very low requirements for him, as long as he could hit the target.Brother Six can't hit the bull's-eye, but the target can be hit.

Although the seventh elder brother can't hit the bull's-eye, he can still hit the fifth and sixth rings.

It's the eighth and ninth elder brothers' turn.The eight princes performed very well, and the ten arrows hit seven arrows.Brother Nine missed the bull's-eye once.

Kangxi praised the eighth elder brother and criticized the ninth elder brother.

The eighth elder brother said that the reason why he has improved so fast in archery is thanks to the teaching of the elder brother.

Kangxi did not expect that the elder brother would also teach the eighth elder brother to archery, and the eldest elder brother said that he taught the eighth elder brother occasionally.

Although nobleman Wei was conferred the title of Concubine Wei, she did not move out from Yanxi Palace.The reason she gave was that she was not in good health and could not raise the eighth elder brother alone, and hoped that she could continue to raise the eighth elder brother with Concubine Hui.

Kangxi thought that Mrs. Wei was too delicate, and if she was in charge of a palace alone, she might be bullied, so he agreed with her to continue living in Yanxi Palace.

Concubine Wei and Concubine Hui have a good relationship, and the relationship between the eighth elder brother and the eldest elder brother is naturally not bad.

After watching Yinzhen and the others shoot arrows for a while, Kangxi took the prince and the others and left.Yinzhen and the others continued to attend class.

At the end of the day, Yinzhen and the others finished their riding and archery lessons, and he was going to Qin Tianjian for lessons.

"Fourth brother." Eighth elder brother suddenly called to stop Yinzhen.

Yinzhen stopped and looked at the eighth elder brother with a little doubt: "Eighth brother, what's the matter?"

The eighth elder brother said with some embarrassment: "fourth brother, can I go to Qintianjian with you to learn Western things from Mr. Tang?"

When Yinzhen heard this, he was a little surprised and asked, "You also want to learn Western things?"

The eighth elder brother nodded vigorously: "Well, fourth brother, is it okay?"

"Okay, come with me now."

"Fourth brother, I'm going too." Ninth elder brother said quickly.

Brother Six was not far behind: "I want to go too."

Yinzhen looked helplessly at the sixth elder brother and ninth elder brother, "You two first learn what the master gave you first."

Brother Jiu said unconvinced: "Fourth brother, why can't we go if myna can go?"

"Your starling is smarter than you in reading books. When you can be like your starling, I will let you go to Qin Tianjian."

"Fourth brother, I am better at reading than eighth brother, can I go?"

Yinzhen glanced at the sixth elder brother expressionlessly: "No." After finishing speaking, he said to the fifth elder brother beside him, "Fifth brother, take them back."

"Yes, fourth brother."

"Eighth brother, let's go."

When they arrived at the Qin Tianjian, the third elder brother was shocked when he saw that the eighth elder brother came to learn Western things together, and then asked the eighth elder brother to study hard.

Tang Ruowang welcomed Ba Age very much, and said that he would teach him with all his heart.

After more than an hour, Yinzhen's Western lessons ended.

The eighth elder brother followed Yinzhen and the others.On the way back to the harem, he asked Yinzhen and the others a lot about Western courses.

"Third brother, fourth brother, I'm back to Yanxi Palace." The eighth elder brother said to Yinzhen and the others with a grateful face, "Thank you third and fourth brother."

"be careful on the road."

After the eighth brother left, the third elder brother asked: "What's the matter with the eighth brother?"

Yinzhen said thoughtfully: "It should be the elder brother's arrangement."

The third elder brother instantly understood Yinzhen's meaning, frowned slightly and said, "Brother arranged for the eighth younger brother to come to the Qin Tianjian to learn Western things with us, so there are princes in the Qin Tianjian."

Yinzhen nodded lightly: "Isn't this normal?"

"So, we are under surveillance for learning Western things in Qintian Supervision." The third elder brother didn't think of this before, but just heard Yinzhen's words, and then thought of it.

Yinzhen was surprised and said, "Third Brother, did you just find out?"

The third elder brother smiled shyly, "I didn't think about it." As he spoke, his expression slowly turned cold, "I didn't expect that they would monitor us to learn Western things."

"It's mainly to monitor me, third brother, you have been implicated by me."

"It's a good thing we didn't talk about other things in Qin Tianjian." The third elder brother raised his hand and patted Yinzhen's shoulder, "Whatever you and I say between you and me is not going to hurt you, let them watch them."

Back at Jingren Palace, Yinzhen told Concubine Tong about having lunch at Qianqing Palace and about Qin Tianjian.

Concubine Tong Guifei said after hearing this that the prince and elder brother only dared to send people to monitor him in Qin Tianjian, but they dared not send people in the harem and elder brother's office.
