On May [-]th, before dawn, a group of palace people got busy in the Qianqing Palace.

In the dormitory, Kangxi woke up earlier than usual today, looking at his beloved little son with a smile in his eyes.

Thinking of the child who was so small when he was just born, he turned one year old in a blink of an eye, and he felt an indescribable sigh in his heart.

The little guy was still asleep, but he didn't know if he noticed his Ama's loving eyes, and suddenly woke up rubbing his eyes.

"Ama..."

After half-opening his eyes and finding that Ama was looking at him, the little guy who was not fully awake rolled over and rolled into his arms, as if he wanted to sleep next to him for a while.

"You will be one year old from now on, why are you still acting like a baby?" Kangxi said, but he put his arms around him, and even patted him on the shoulder.

After lying in his arms for a while, Cheng An finally regained consciousness, raised his head and shouted childishly, "Ama."

"Yeah." Kangxi was in a very good mood today, seeing that he didn't want to sleep anymore, he hugged him and stood up.

After that, he even dressed his younger son himself before he even changed his clothes.

It was a small red gown embroidered with gold patterns, and there was a small mandarin jacket of the same color on the outside, which was worn on the little guy carved in pink and jade, making him more white and tender while also looking very festive.

Kangxi put on the clothes for him, took a step back and looked at it, really how to look at it.

"Long Live Lord..." Liang Jiugong was handed over his hat at the right time.

The small hat of the same color was inlaid with yellow gemstones, and Kangxi put it on his head directly after taking it.

After being put on the hat, Cheng An subconsciously stretched out his little hand to touch it, then tilted his head and smiled at Kangxi.

"My Cheng'an." Kangxi was aroused by his innocent smile, and he stretched out his arms and hugged him for a while before continuing to put on a small pouch and a small jade pendant for him.

After everything is dressed, a little elder brother who is as happy as a fairy boy appears.

Although today is a big day for the youngest son to catch Zhou, it is still time to go to court in the morning. After eating breakfast, Kangxi asked him to take care of him and went to court first.

All the civil and military officials in the court know that today is the big day when the 24th elder brother catches the week, so unless there is something urgent, they are not going to speak.

As a result, today's morning court ended extraordinarily early.

After the early court ended, the time was just right, and Kangxi went straight back to the Qianqing Palace, and the rest of the royal family and ministers also walked together in twos and threes.

"I don't know what Cheng An will catch." Yin'e said with a smile.

Yinzhen heard the words and said: "I think swords or bows and arrows are good."

"Cheng'an loves to read, maybe he will grab a book of Analects."

"He likes jade pendants so much, maybe he will catch jade pendants."

"Jade is a gentleman's thing, and it's really good to grab a jade pendant."

The elder brothers who caught Zhou Liyinzhi naturally also wanted to participate, and they couldn't help talking on the way.

In the Qianqing Palace, the venue has been prepared, the concubine and the Fujin family are on one side, and soon the royal family and ministers are also on the other side.

"Today's Zhou Catch Ceremony is really grand."

"Who said it wasn't."

After scanning the eyes of the two clan Fujins around the people present, they couldn't help talking softly.

Not to mention them, even the empresses and concubines couldn't help but envy Chen Guiren when they saw the specifications of the Zhou ceremony, thinking that she really gave birth to a good son.

After all the people watching the ceremony arrived for a while, Kangxi came out with today's protagonist in his arms.

After everyone saluted in unison, the Catch Zhou Ceremony will begin immediately.

Seeing so many brothers present, Cheng An immediately became excited, and called his brother to run over as soon as he was put on the ground.

"Brother, brother..."

After the New Year's Eve palace banquet, it was the first time he saw so many brothers, he immediately ran around each of them, and then opened his arms to hug.

When the elder brothers saw him running over with a smile, they also smiled thickly or lightly because of their emotions, but this would be a bit inappropriate, so they all held back and didn't hug him in the end.

Even though they had heard before that this little elder brother was not only favored by the emperor, but also had an excellent relationship with the elder brothers, everyone who saw this scene with their own eyes was still a little surprised.

Cheng An stretched out his hand and waited for a while, seeing that his brothers who had rushed to hug him in the past did not move today, tilted his head to look at them for a while, and then took the initiative to rush to hug someone's leg at random.

After Yinzhen, who was lucky enough to choose him, looked down at him, he couldn't remain indifferent.

"Go and catch Zhou first." Yinzhen bent down and said something to him, then turned the person to the direction of the red carpet and pushed him forward.

Cheng An's eyes were full of brothers just now, only now did he realize that there is a big red carpet in the middle of the open space, with many things placed on it.

"Cheng'an, come here." Seeing that the auspicious time was approaching, Kangxi stood beside the red carpet and waved.

Hearing Ama's voice, Chengan didn't hesitate anymore, raised his short legs and ran over.

"Go grab one." After he came over, Kangxi picked him up and placed him in the middle of the red carpet.

Cheng An sat on the red carpet and looked at the things around him, his first instinct was to grab a piece of jade pendant.

Before anyone could sing auspicious words, he quickly got up on the red carpet again, picking up "The Analects of Confucius", a gem-encrusted dagger, a golden abacus, a small golden bow, a brush, and a series of other things while crawling.

Among these things, most of them are attracted by their colors, such as the golden abacus and the dagger inlaid with sparkling gems; there are also some things that they have come into contact with on weekdays, so they will pick them up when they see them, such as "The Analects of Confucius" and brushes.

At first, he held it with his left and right hands, then hugged it in his arms, and then pulled it to his side. He was very happy.

The people who sang auspicious words were stunned, and it took a while to react, and they sang the meaning of everything in auspicious words.

"As expected of my younger brother, he is smart." Yin'e boasted after seeing so many things he had caught.

Yinzhi also smiled and said, "I knew he would definitely catch the jade pendant."

Seeing that he had grasped "The Analects of Confucius" and a brush, Yinzhen felt that when he was older, he could teach him to read and practice calligraphy.

"I just said that he can grasp the bow. When he gets older, I will teach him how to ride and shoot." Yinzhen said.

Although Yinzhen didn't speak, she took another look at the golden abacus in his arms.

Not far away, at the concubine's side.

A nobleman looked at the things in the little elder brother's hands, and couldn't help but said to Chen Guiren: "Sister is so lucky, the little elder brother has caught a golden abacus."

Apparently, Chen Gui had such a favored little elder brother because his eyes were sour, so he deliberately ignored other things and only pointed out this one.

But before Chen Guiren could speak, Concubine Yi who was not far away glanced over lightly: "What's wrong with the golden abacus?"

Hearing the words, the nobleman suddenly remembered that Brother Nine heard that he had caught a golden abacus, his face turned pale immediately, and he was about to make an apology.

Concubine Yi knows that her eldest brother likes her younger brother very much, and the fifth child will mention a few words when she occasionally comes to see her, so naturally she won't let anyone disturb the other party's Zhou Catch Ceremony, so she will write this down for the time being to prevent that nobleman from making a big fuss.

Concubine De, who had always been at odds with Concubine Yi, did not take the opportunity to tease her secretly. On the one hand, she was worried about Kangxi's love for her little elder brother; , I don't want to make any trouble today.

The concubine didn't mention it here, but said that Kangxi, seeing that the youngest son was not finished, wanted to take everything, and was almost laughed angrily.

Before it was clear, he had taught him in advance to choose the most pleasing thing, and it turned out to be fine...

Seeing that he was still hugging things around him, Kangxi couldn't help it, and bent down to hug him.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, Cheng An called "Ama" and stuffed a writing brush into his hand.

Kangxi took it subconsciously, and couldn't help but wonder if he had seen too much on weekdays, so he gave himself this brush because he took the brush.

Seeing this scene, the royal clansmen and ministers nearby all said auspicious words to congratulate Kangxi, making the atmosphere very lively for a while.

After Cheng An gave the brush to Ah Ma, he quickly got up and ran to the elder brothers with a few things in his arms.

The little guy first handed a jade fan pendant to the third brother, thinking that the fourth brother likes to read to himself, so he gave him "The Analects of Confucius".

Although the fifth brother Yinqi and the seventh brother Yinyou didn't watch him as often as the other brothers, he also gave them something each.

After distributing, he ran back again, came over again with a lot of things, and continued to distribute them to the starlings, ninth brothers, and tenth brothers.

Yinhu accepted the seal from him with a smile, touched his head and thanked him softly.

"I want this." Yinzhen pointed to the golden abacus in his arms before he made a move.

Cheng An quite liked this golden abacus, but seeing that Brother Nine wanted it, he still handed it over: "Give it to brother."

Seeing his generosity, Yinzhen showed a smile on his face, took it and said: "Don't worry, brother Jiu didn't want yours for nothing, I will send you a better one later."

"Then I want this dagger." Seeing that she could pick it out by herself, Yin'e also offered to extend her hand.

Originally according to the standing position, it was the turn of the twelfth elder brother Yinxuan and the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang, but Yinzhen stepped forward to take the little golden bow in his arms.

After sending out the golden abacus, Cheng An didn't feel sorry for the jeweled dagger and the little golden bow anymore, after all, his brothers usually gave him things.

Of course, for today's Zhou Catch Ceremony, the elder brothers have prepared things for him, and the congratulatory gift has been placed in the side hall next to it.

After sending off the 13th and [-]th elder brothers, there are fifteen elder brothers Yinxu, sixteen elder brothers Yinlu, seventeen elder brothers Yinli, and twenty elder brothers Yinyi.

These elder brothers in the back saw Cheng An even less often, but they still saw each other anyway, so they didn't forget about it.

But in fact, he also has three elder brothers, the 21st elder brother Yinxi, the 22nd elder brother Yinhu, and the 23rd elder brother Yinqi.

The first two of these three elder brothers are only six years old, and the last one is only four years old. The former is about to enter the Shang's study room, and the latter is still early in school.

They were still young, and Cheng An was even younger, so the two sides did not have the chance to meet each other on weekdays.

"Brother Cheng'an..." Yinxi couldn't help calling him when he saw that all his brothers were involved.

After Chengan found out that there were three older brothers, he happily ran over to pick up some things for them to choose.

After the three young elder brothers each chose one, they all looked at their younger brother and laughed.

Although he had never heard of such a ritual of grasping Zhou, Kangxi felt very relieved to see this scene of brothers respecting each other.

Everyone saw the elder brothers smiling, even Prince Yong, who was known as the cold-faced king, had a faint smile on his face. The emperor was obviously in a good mood, so naturally he would not be so stupid as to question the little elder brother's behavior, but one after another praise up.

After the Zhou Catch Ceremony, there will be a Zhou Catch Banquet, where the concubines and the Fujins are together, and the royal family and ministers are together.

At the elder brother Fujin's table, because of their master, when Fujin talked about Cheng An, the little elder brother was all praise.

In fact, their compliments are not all about loving the house, but that no one would dislike such a delicate, smart, lively and energetic little brother.

Especially Bafujin, he only hated himself for not having such a child.

Sifujin thought of his grandfather's love for his little elder brother beyond words, and was reminded of his own son, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: If my Honghui is still there...

Compared with this side, the brothers' side is more lively.

After Cheng An sat with Ah Ma for a while, he quickly ran down to find his brothers.

Yin'er has been paying attention to him from the corner of her eye, and when she was about to hug him up when someone got closer, she didn't expect to be taken a step ahead by Yinzhen.

"Fourteen you..."

Youdao means quick hands, slow hands, no hands, after Yinzhen threw him a smug look, he put Cheng An on his lap and sat down.

Seeing him hugging his younger brother, Yin Xiang asked the little guy who was smiling at him: "What would Cheng An want to eat?"

"Don't ask him, he wants to eat anything, but it's a pity that Huang Ama won't let him." Probably because he was in a good mood holding his brother, Yinzhen rarely had nice words to him.

The age difference between this pair is almost the same, and the two elder brothers who are said to be able to play together do not know when they have been at odds with each other, especially Yinzhen, every time he sees Yinxiang, his nose is not his nose and his eyes are not his eyes.

Yinxiang was a little surprised by his attitude, but he didn't show it on the surface, but asked very naturally: "Then what can he eat?"

It was inconvenient for Yinzhen to move the little guy in his arms, so he commanded: "He seems to be able to eat fish meat, you should grab some fish meat first."

Yinxiang heard the words, and personally picked up a piece of meat without thorns in the belly of the fish.

As soon as he heard the word "eat", Cheng An, who had already eaten half a bowl of wontons at Kangxi's just now, immediately opened his small mouth and waited to be fed: "Ah..."

Seeing his appearance, Yinyu, the fifteenth elder brother on the other side, couldn't help laughing, holding the untouched fish soup in front of him and asking: "Brother Fourteen, can he drink fish soup?"

"The fish soup should be drinkable, give it a try." Yinzhen said.

So Cheng An just ate the fish fed by the thirteenth brother on the left, and immediately the fifteenth brother on the right handed him a mouthful of soup, so fresh that his eyes were crooked.

"Don't feed so much at once, feed less." Yinzhen, who felt that the fifteenth feeding was not as good as his own, pointed out.

Yinyu nodded when he heard the words, and then only fed half and half spoonfuls.

Yin'e, who was a few places away, had been paying attention to their side, and couldn't help but said at this moment: "Seeing that you are feeding Cheng An's little face so greasy, you should send it to me!"

"Where is the oil?" Yinzhen retorted and quickly wiped his face with a handkerchief.

Kangxi, who was at the top, saw his youngest son sitting in Fourteen's arms, with two older brothers feeding him, and felt that he would enjoy it.

Although Cheng An could eat more after his first birthday, seeing that they were all feeding him with the dishes on the table, Kangxi still ordered someone to send down the meals specially prepared for him by the Imperial Dining Room.

Yinzhen also couldn't see that his younger brother was being fed oily face, when Liang Jiugong came down with the tray, he directly reached out to take it, then turned his head and called Chengan to come over to eat.

Yinzhen couldn't stop him from the meal sent by Huang Ama, so he could only let him go.

When Chengan was running towards Yinzhen, halfway Yin'e took the opportunity to turn around and hug him.

Cheng An who was hugged suddenly laughed, stretched out his arms to hug him, and rubbed his face affectionately.

When Yin'e let go of him contentedly, Yinzhen next to him laughed outright.

Yin'e was a little confused at first, so when he raised his hand and touched a handful of oil on his face, he still didn't understand.

Of course he wouldn't think it was Cheng An's fault, the little guy just likes to be close to his brother, so there's nothing wrong with it.

"Yinzhen sees what you've done!" Yin'e turned her oily face to Yinzhen's side, and said to him across Yinxuan and Yinxiang.

Yinzhen said that he would not take the blame: "It's not my feeding, it's none of my business."

After he finished speaking, Yinxiang and Yinyu, who couldn't feed their children, looked up at the sky at the same time, refusing to meet Yin'e's eyes.

At the same time, Cheng An was already sitting in the arms of his fourth brother, looking at the third brother on the left for a while, and the fifth brother on the right for a while, the smile on his face never disappeared.

Yinzhen was not in a hurry to feed him, but asked someone to bring a wet handkerchief to wipe his face clean first.

Many children don't like to wash their faces, but this definitely does not include Cheng An, who obediently raised his face when he saw the handkerchief in Fourth Brother's hand.

"He's really good." Fifth elder brother Yinqi couldn't help boasting.

He was raised by the Queen Mother since he was a child, and the Queen Mother's health has become worse and worse in the past two years, so he went as a filial piety when he had free time, but he didn't have much time to see this younger brother.

This will look at this younger brother, but the more he looks at it, the more he likes it.

After wiping his face, the little guy returned to a milk-flavored bun, which looked white and cute, making people want to take a bite.

After Yinzhen put down the veil in satisfaction, he picked up the custard in front of him and started to feed it.

This custard is different from what Cheng An ate at first, it is covered with a layer of minced meat and shrimps, it looks very tempting.

"I want shrimp." Cheng An pointed with his little finger after seeing the shrimp in the bowl.

Not to mention, he can learn other languages ​​at a mediocre speed, but he can learn things related to eating, such as meat, cakes, candy and so on.

It was also for this reason that Yin'e secretly fed sugar to him last time and was eventually exposed. Fortunately, Kangxi only reprimanded him this time, and did not punish him for copying books.

Of course, after being discovered, Yin'e wanted to argue a little bit, and even thought of a good idea, that is, the "Tangtang" in Chengan's mouth was actually Yinzhen's "Tangtang", but after thinking about it, he still didn't dare to do that in the end Do it, after all, his royal family, Ama, is not easy to fool around.

The shrimp on the steamed egg was cut into small pieces, and Yinzhen spooned it up with a little egg custard and fed it.

He didn't have much experience in feeding children, but he was serious and careful in doing things, so overall he fed them pretty well, at least he didn't feed Chengan's whole face.

In the past, no one would seriously eat at this kind of banquet, but probably seeing that everything Cheng An ate was so delicious, the elder brothers at the table also used a lot of it.

And the royal family members and ministers who quietly paid attention to this place couldn't help but be speechless, thinking that the elder brothers were too kind to the little elder brother Yinmi.

However, some people later felt that the elder brothers must be showing off to the emperor. After all, expressing love for such a young elder brother will not pose a threat to themselves and show brotherly respect. Why not not for.

After the catch-up feast was over, the people present were about to leave, Cheng An was naturally reluctant to part with his brothers, but there was nothing he could do about it.

But soon he remembered that there was still his second brother, so he ran towards Xian'an Palace holding a jade wrench.

Xian'an Palace.

Yinfeng naturally knew what day it was. He sat in the courtyard and looked at the blue sky above his head. He didn't show it on his face, but he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"elder brother!"

Just when he was about to go back to his room to drink, he suddenly heard a childish voice from outside, and the door was opened in the next second.

Even if he knew that the Zhou Ceremony should have ended long ago, seeing him today, Yinfeng was still a little happy.

Seeing the little guy running in with a smile on his face, he stood up to greet him and hugged him in his arms after taking two steps.

"Brother here." After Cheng An was picked up by him, he spread his small hands towards him.

Yinreng looked at the jasper finger in his hand a little puzzled, but still held him with one hand and took it with the other.

"This is the finger pull that the little elder brother grabbed at the Zhou Ceremony before." Liu Cai explained behind. As for the little elder brother who grabbed a lot of things, he didn't say anything more if he divided the same for each elder brother.

After receiving the finger puller, the depression in Yinfeng's heart dissipated a lot, and he didn't ask him why he grabbed the finger puller, but put it on his thumb and asked, "How is it?"

"Okay." Cheng An applauded in a childish voice.

The smile on Yinreng's face became more obvious when he heard the words, and after carrying him into the room and sitting down, he ordered someone to bring over the things he had prepared.

Those were several brocade boxes, all of which were gifts prepared by Yinfeng for him.

"Open it and have a look." Yinreng put him on Luohan's bed, those brocade boxes were lined up in front of him.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. As the prince who was once favored by Kangxi, Yinfeng is not short of good things even if he is locked up in Xian'an Palace.

Cheng An looked at his brother and then at the box in front of him, and curiously reached out to open the first one.

I heard that he likes jade pendants very much, Yinreng's first box contained several pieces of jade pendants, and the quality was no worse than the ones given to him by Kangxi before.

Cheng An grabbed a few pieces of jade pendants and played with them for a while before opening the second box, which contained a magic ball.

Guigong ball, which means uncanny workmanship, is carved from ivory. There are several layers of hollow balls inside the hollow ball, and the patterns carved on each layer are very delicate.

"Wow..." Cheng An found that with a slight movement, the balls in his hand would start to rotate at the same time, and found it very interesting.

The other boxes were also full of good things. After playing with them one by one, Cheng An happily got up and threw himself into his brother's arms: "Brother is good."

Yinfeng touched his head, and then took him to play with the things on Luohan's bed.

Today Cheng'an got up early, plus he was too excited to catch the Zhou Ceremony before and consumed a lot of energy, so he would fall asleep by his brother soon after playing around.

This time, Yinfeng didn't send him back directly, but took a nap on the Arhat bed with the milk-scented little guy in his arms.

Since entering Xian'an Palace, Yinreng has often had trouble sleeping, and from time to time he would dream of being deposed. At this time, he was hugging the little guy who smelled like milk, but it was rare for him to have a good night's sleep.

After waking up, Yinreng quietly admired the innocent and peaceful sleeping face of the little guy beside him for a while, and then ordered someone to carry the sleeping little guy back.

In fact, he wanted to simply leave him here, but unfortunately, he was not the prince who could do whatever he wanted.
