Dragon cubs are the group pet of the Qing Palace

That night, after Cheng An went to bed, he rolled and played restlessly on the bed, and suddenly lay down on the corner of the bed and stopped moving.

"Cheng'an."

Kangxi was also going to take him to read a book before going to bed, and when he was called out to not come, he thought it was on purpose at first, but when he leaned over to see his face, he realized that the little guy had fallen asleep.

Even though he had seen his ability to sleep as soon as he said it, Kangxi was still a little helpless, and reached out to hug him from the corner of the bed to the center of the bed.

The little guy is pretty good most of the time, but really, he looks the best when he's asleep and when he just wakes up.

The white and tender little guy slept soundly, and didn't respond to being hugged. The little hand clenched into a fist was still on his chest, rising and falling with his breath.

Kangxi gently took his hand down and put it beside him, and his eyes stopped for a while on his cute little face after he fell asleep, and finally fell on the top of his black hair.

Promising him not to shave his head during the day was just a tactic to delay the attack. Seeing him obediently lying on the bed, Kangxi suddenly felt that he could shave it off while he was asleep.

But if this is the case, he will wake up tomorrow and find that he will cry earth-shatteringly...

Kangxi imagined that scene, and finally shook his head to dismiss the idea.

The little guy who was sleeping soundly didn't know if he was aware of his terrifying thoughts, and suddenly raised a small hand and placed it on top of his head.

"It's uneasy to sleep." Kangxi didn't think much, took his little hand off and put it away, and was ready to rest.

“Cuckoo chicken is delicious...”

When Kangxi just lay down, he heard this sentence, and thought he had woken up, but turned around and found that he was talking in his sleep.

"Just know how to eat." Kangxi couldn't help pinching his small mouth lightly, then closed his eyes with a smile.

For the little guy who didn't know that he fell asleep and almost got his head shaved at night, waking up the next day was another beautiful day. He opened his eyes and saw his own Ama, and smiled at him before slowly getting up.

Seeing the little guy's soft smiling face every morning, Kangxi's mood improved unconsciously, even if he encountered a few idiots in court, he was more tolerant.

When Kangxi went to the morning court, the little guy couldn't stay idle, after all, it was the coolest morning, so he either went to play with his brother, or went to visit the queen mother and his mother-in-law.

The Empress Dowager immediately showed a smile when she saw him approaching, and when she heard that he could greet herself in Mongolian, she even smiled and said to Concubine Mu next to her, "Look, we Cheng'an can speak Mongolian now."

"It's all taught well by the emperor." Mu Bin, who had a bright pearl on her head and a pretty face, said with a smile.

"The Fifth Brother taught An'an!"

When it comes to Mongolian among the elder brothers, Yinqi is indeed the best, after all he grew up beside the queen mother.

"Okay, Cheng An learned well, and your fifth brother also taught well." Both of them are children that the Queen Mother likes. After she finished her compliment with a smile, she personally took a piece of pastry from the table for the little guy to eat.

Cheng An sat beside her with the pastry in his hands and finished eating, then raised his head and recited the "Three Character Classic": "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind..."

After hearing this, the queen mother kept boasting.

"I can still write!"

The little guy was overjoyed and told them with his little hand raised.

The queen mother saw such a big little guy, who could read and write again in a blink of an eye, even if she could only know one or two words, she still loved her so much, she hugged her in her arms and praised her.

Cheng An listened to the praise, and then ate the pastry that she stuffed into her hands, shaking her little feet happily.

When he was about to leave, Concubine Mu saw the tired look on the empress dowager's face, so she also left.

After the mother and son came out of the house, Mu Bin recalled the news she heard yesterday, touched the little guy's head and said, "Cheng An's hair should be shaved."

The little guy was still bouncing and walking beside her, but when he heard this, he immediately covered his head and shook his head to express his disapproval.

"Why doesn't Cheng An want to shave his head?" Mu Bin stretched out her hand to hug him and asked.

Mu Bin likes his son quite a bit

He has black and soft hair, and he only wants to persuade Kangxi because he is afraid that Kangxi will be unhappy if he insists on refusing to shave his head.

"An'an's hair is beautiful~" the little guy patted the top of his head and boasted.

When Mu Bin heard this, a gentle smile appeared on her lips: "But your brothers have all shaved their heads."

She thought that her son liked her brother so much, and mentioning other elder brothers should be able to persuade him, but the little guy said: "Brother is big, I am still young."

Mu Bin thought that he said that he had grown up before, and now he said that he was still young, and he was a little dumbfounded for a while.

Before she could speak again, the little guy put his arms around her neck and rubbed her shoulders lightly, coquettishly: "An'an, don't shave your head, just be like Erniang~"

Mu Bin's heart softened in an instant. If she could make the decision, she would definitely agree to not have him shave her hair. After all, as long as her son is happy.

At this moment, she could only touch the little guy's head and whisper: "When your Huang Ama told you to shave your head, Cheng An, don't confront him, if it's really not possible... just find your Huang Mama."

"Ama promised An'an not to shave her head." The little guy raised his head and said.

Concubine Mu felt that the emperor would not easily agree to such a thing no matter how much he loved him, so she asked in a low voice, "What did your emperor Ama say?"

"Ama said, don't shave for now." The little guy has a good memory, and even imitated Kangxi's tone at that time.

Mu Bin's expression was a little helpless after hearing this, but she didn't remind him that it was only temporary, but she wanted to wait a few days before coaxing him.

"Er Niang, An'an, go by herself." Seeing that Er Niang could not hold her, Cheng An took the initiative.

After complimenting him, Mu Bin put him down, took him by the hand and sent him to Qingxi Bookstore before leaving.

The little guy watched her leave but didn't immediately enter Qingxi Bookstore, but started playing outside.

For him, a stone or a piece of grass on the side of the road can be played. Of course, if Kangxi allows it, mud is the most fun.

When Yinzhi and Yinxiang came over, they saw the little guy squatting outside Qingxi Bookstore from a distance.

There was nothing in the place where he was squatting, if he hadn't known about Huang Ama, they would have been reluctant to part with him, the two of them thought he was kicked out by Huang Ama and refused to let him in.

"What are you doing here?" Yinxiang trotted forward and patted him on the shoulder.

Cheng An turned his head to see him, and first called out "Thirteenth Brother", and when he found that Yinzhi was still there, he called out "Third Brother", then pointed to the ground and said, "Look at Chongchong~"

Yinxiang lifted his clothes and squatted down, only to realize that he was looking at ants.

"What's so interesting about this, it's not too hot to squat outside." Yinzhi rubbed his head and hugged him up.

For the little guy, the ant is still pretty good-looking, but compared to the elder brother, the elder brother must be more important, and he immediately put his arms around Yinzhi's neck and was led in by him.

It was not yet noon, and the sun was already shining outside. Yinzhi walked into the house with him in his arms, and immediately felt much cooler.

Now when brothers come to see him, the topic they must talk about is his study, Yinzhi and Yinxiang must care about a few words.

The little guy has gotten used to it, opening his mouth and reciting "San Zi Jing" and "Hundred Surnames" to them.

"That's right, our Cheng'an is really smart." Yin Xiang applauded and praised after listening.

Yinzhi also boasted a few words, and then changed the subject to ask another matter: "I heard that you refuse to shave your head?"

The news in the palace may not spread so fast, but now they are all living in Changchun Garden, so brothers will know immediately if there is something wrong with the little guy.

"Ama said that you don't need to shave your head." Cheng An told him with his face raised.

Seeing that he admitted this, Yinzhi rubbed his head and said, "It's so cool to shave your hair on such a hot day, your third brother, I wish I could shave every day."

After he finished speaking, he saw Yinxiang next to him from the corner of his eye, and suddenly remembered an old incident, the smile on his face suddenly subsided.

In the 38th year of Kangxi, when Yinxiang's mother was mourned for less than a hundred days, Yinzhi shaved her hair directly, and was condemned as Baylor because of this incident.

Yinzhi didn't think there was anything wrong with him at the time, but felt that it was a bit unlucky to be convicted for such a trivial matter.

But at this time, probably because he is older and has experienced more things, and the relationship with his brothers has become better and better in the past two years. When he thinks about this again, he can't help but reflect on it. Should.

After all, whether he wants to or not, if he thinks about putting this matter on himself, Yinzhi feels that he is afraid of hitting someone.

"That... the thirteenth brother."

Yinxiang didn't know that his heart was going back and forth for a moment, and when he heard him call him to look over subconsciously, he saw him say solemnly: "Sorry."

Yinxiang should be a little confused by this thoughtless apology, but for some reason, he immediately realized what Yinzhi was referring to.

Yinxiang was only 13 years old when Concubine Min passed away. The pain of losing his mother was a great blow to him. At this time, Yinzhi's behavior made him feel sad and angry, but at the same time he was a little bit horny, thinking that he was weak and useless. Yinzhi dared to act like this.

Yinxiang thought that he had let go of this matter long ago. After all, Huang Ama had already punished him at that time, but after hearing this belated apology, Yinxiang realized that there was no such thing. Until this moment, the secret he had hidden deep in his heart The knot is truly untied.

Seeing the corners of his eyes suddenly turn slightly red, Yinzhi realized the harm he had caused to him by his random behavior at that time, and felt regretful and embarrassed for a moment.

"What's wrong with Brother Thirteen?" The little guy found out that the atmosphere was not right, and whispered in Yinzhi's ear.

"Third brother made your thirteenth brother angry, you coax him." Yinzhi also whispered in his ear and pushed him over.

The little guy immediately leaned over to hug Yinxiang, patted him on the back and said: "Brother Thirteen is not angry, An An will help you beat Brother Three, okay?"

After all, it has been so many years, Yinxiang only suddenly recalled the feeling of anger and helplessness at that time, and then he became emotional for a while. Although Yinzhi's apology was a bit late, Yinxiang felt relieved this time.

Hearing the little guy's words, Yinxiang lowered his head and said, "Can you beat him?"

"I can beat it!" The little guy turned his head to pat Yinzhi after he finished speaking, but his little hand was raised high, but when it fell, it was light, obviously reluctant to hit it hard.

"Okay, An'an helped Brother Thirteen beat him~"

Yin Zhi let him pat him, seeing Yin Xiang being amused by him, he felt relieved.

Afterwards, Yin Zhi didn't mention the matter of shaving his hair again. Instead, Yin Xiang touched the little guy's head and asked him why he didn't want to shave his head.

"Shaving your hair doesn't look good." Cheng An told him in a childish voice.

Yinzhi immediately said with a straight face: "You mean that the third brother is not good-looking?"

The little guy shook his head immediately, pointed at himself and said, "Say Ann!"

"Who is An An?"

"An'an is me!"

"Look, you're still talking about me."

"It's not me, it's An An..."

Seeing that the little guy was about to be distracted by him, Yin Xiang hurriedly interrupted: "Sir, stop teasing him."

Yin Zhi didn't continue talking, but he said that he wanted to teach Cheng An how to draw.

Compared with reading, the little guy is more active in learning to draw, so he immediately nodded and said yes.

Yinzhi was really ready to teach him how to draw at the beginning, and asked him what he wanted to draw.

"Brother Hua Da!"

Hearing this, Yin Zhi suddenly felt a little sour: "The third brother taught you how to draw, but you want to draw the elder brother?"

"Then the third brother~" The little guy was quick to change his words.

Yinzhi didn't have any interest in making a portrait of himself, so he raised his lips and said, "I don't want to draw third brother, let's draw Cheng'an today."

The little guy was very happy to hear that Hua Hua himself, nodded and said: "Okay!"

It was normal at first, Yin Zhi held Cheng An's hand, outlined the little guy's figure on the paper with a few strokes, and then slowly added various details.

Yinxiang stood by and watched, seeing that he hadn't painted his hair for a long time, he always felt that something was wrong, and sure enough——

I saw that Yinzhi deliberately left his hair at the end to paint, but also painted the little guy after shaving, and said: "Isn't this pretty."

Cheng An blinked his eyes and looked at himself with his bare forehead on the paper, and burst into tears in the next second.

Yinzhi just wanted to tease him temporarily, but he didn't expect him to cry, even if he found that the little guy was just howling with his head up, he was still a little anxious, so he quickly looked at Yinxiang.

Seeing that he had nothing to do but wanted to make the little guy cry, but came to see him after crying, Yin Xiang immediately took two steps back and gave him a helpless expression.

"Why are you crying, isn't your hair still there? The third brother just wanted to tell you that Chengan still looks good even after shaving his hair. If you don't believe me, ask your thirteenth brother!" Yinzhi hurriedly coaxed.

Yin Xiang echoed, "Yes, Cheng An looks good no matter what."

Cheng An stopped crying for a second when he heard his brother's sweet talk, but when his small eyes caught sight of himself with his forehead on the paper, he immediately continued crying.

After all, the hair wasn't really shaved off, the little guy was crying with a lot of thunder and little rain.

But even this was enough to make Yinzhi anxious, so he quickly took a pen to add on his hair.

"Okay, okay, look, third brother painted your hair for you!"

Hearing what he said, the little guy glanced at the paper and stopped crying after making sure he had hair.

"As for?" Yin Zhijian finally coaxed him to rest, and raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his head.

"An An has hair!"

The corners of the little guy's eyes were still a little wet, he pointed at himself on the paper but laughed again.

crying and laughing...

Seeing the speed at which his face changed, Yinxiang felt that it was no wonder that the saying goes, "A child's face can change as soon as it is said to change".

Afterwards, Yinzhi didn't dare to deliberately tease the little guy any more, and taught him how to draw honestly, until it was almost noon before he hurriedly dragged Yinxiang away.

Yinxiang guessed that he left so fast because he was afraid that Huang Ama would come back and find out that he made Chengan cry, so he smiled inwardly and cooperated with him to leave quickly.

After they left, Cheng An returned to his exclusive painting table, tilted his head to look at the painting in front of him for a while, and then suddenly reached out to pick up the small brush.

Not to mention, he hasn't learned much serious painting skills yet, but he has learned a little from Yinzhi in the aura of holding a pen and ink.

The painting in front of him was taught by Yinzhi just now, it is a group portrait of brothers.

The little guy picked up the pen again and didn't know what to add to it. The painting was quite serious, and he didn't notice it when Kangxi came back.

Seeing that he seemed to be painting, Kangxi immediately raised his hand to signal Liu Cai and the others that there is no need to salute, and quietly walked behind him to see what he was painting so seriously, but when he saw it, his expression suddenly became indescribable.

"Okay!" The little guy was quite happy to draw, put down his pen after painting, and nodded in affirmation.

"What kind of demon are you?" Kangxi couldn't help but ask after he finished writing.

The little guy was startled when he heard his voice suddenly, he patted himself on the chest and said, "What did Ama say?"

"Why do you want to destroy the painting?" Kangxi asked, pointing to the painting on the case.

I saw the group portraits of elder brothers who were originally fine, but now there is a big blob of ink on their heads, and it feels like a dark cloud is covering the top.

"No!" The little guy looked at the painting, not understanding why he said that.

Seeing that he still didn't admit it, Kangxi pointed to the ink blob on the painting: "Then what is this?"

"It's hair!" Cheng An said without hesitation, and then laughed, "An An painted my brother's hair~"

Kangxi didn't know what to say when he heard the words.

"Is Ama good-looking?" Seeing that he didn't speak, the little guy took the initiative to ask.

Kangxi met his expectant eyes, and finally said: "You can ask them yourself when you have time."

After saying that, Kangxi saw that his palm was stained with a lot of ink, and motioned for someone to bring a water basin.

"No water play."

The little guy just put his hand into the water basin when he heard Kangxi's reminder, he was about to play a few times, and he immediately behaved

When washing your hands, you can sneak a little water with your fingers at most.

After he washed his hands, Kangxi took him to sit on the Arhat bed and asked, "I heard you cried this morning?"

"No!" Cheng An finished refuting, and then explained under his gaze, "An An is so whimpering, not crying..."

As he spoke, the little guy clenched his hands into fists and put them next to his eyes to show that he wasn't really crying.

His skin is very tender, if he really cried, his eyes would still be red.

Kangxi saw that the circles around his eyes were normal, so he believed that he was not really crying.

"Then why are you pretending to cry?"

"Third brother has painted An An's hair and disappeared!" Speaking of this, the little guy couldn't help puffing his cheeks.

Kangxi imagined that scene with a smile in his eyes: "So you have to paint their hair?"

"Looks good with hair!"

"Manly man, why do you want to be so good-looking?"

"Just look good!"

Kangxi didn't bother to argue with him, so he poked his head, and said to himself, let him live for a while, and when he gets older, he will definitely shave off his hair.

The little guy didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he told him about the queen mother's praise of himself today.

When Kangxi saw that he was willing to go to the Empress Dowager's side to fulfill his filial piety, he was very relieved, thinking that this would allow him to keep his hair for a few more months.

At the beginning of July, there was an urgent report from Qinghai that Yinzhen defeated Ling Dunduobu, the great strategy, and put down the Tibetan rebellion.

"it is good!"

After reading the excerpts, Kangxi was immediately delighted.

"What's wrong with Ama?" The little guy who was playing next to him heard the sound and ran over immediately.

Kangxi picked him up and shared his joy with him: "Your fourteenth brother has lived up to my expectations, this battle has been won."

"Wow! Brother Fourteen is amazing!" The little guy clapped his hands when he heard that his brother had won, and then raised his face and asked, "What about Brother Da?"

"He's not bad either." Kangxi boasted in a good mood.

Yinzhen is not a person who will monopolize the credit, and he also took credit for Yinti in the excerpts, and Kangxi naturally would not ignore this point.

"Are Brother Da and Brother Fourteen coming back?" Cheng An asked expectantly.

Yinti is still a little bit better, Yinzhen has not seen him for a long, long time since last year, so he can't think well.

The rebellion in Tibet was over, but the chief culprit, Junggar Khan Tsewang Allah Butan, hadn't cleaned up yet, so Yinzhen would not be able to come back so soon.

When Kangxi heard his words, he shook his head and said, "Not yet."

When the little guy heard this, he immediately showed a disappointed expression.

"Your eldest brother and fourteenth brother have business to do, and it's not like you won't come back." Kangxi patted his head, and in order to comfort him, he immediately said that today is a good day and he can order by himself.

Cheng An was a little happier now, but after lunch, he immediately ran to write letters to his two elder brothers.

Qinghai.

To solve the major policy of Ling Dunduobu, Yinzhen ordered someone to send the newly sealed Dalai Lama to Tibet, and finally he was able to relax for a few days, waiting for Kangxi's next instructions.

While receiving Kangxi's reply, the two brothers also received a letter from the little guy.

Kangxi's reply was not what they expected, and he really wanted them to continue to conquer Junggar.

This is normal. After all, Cewang Allah Butan dared to invade Tibet. If he just retreated and then withdrew his troops, it would really hurt the face of the Qing Dynasty.

After reading Kangxi's reply, the two brothers read the little guy's letter again.

"Yo, I haven't seen you for a while, he can still write!" Yinti saw that the first piece of paper was crooked, but he could still recognize the word "brother", with a surprised and pleasant expression on his face.

This is probably the case for beginners when learning to write. The two characters of "little guy" almost fill up the entire paper.

Yinzhen also laughed and boasted, "That's a good word."

It can only be said that those of them who are older brothers have filters, little guy

This means that words that can barely be recognized can also be praised with eyes open.

Yinzhen was just simply praising, and Yinti even stepped on it: "It's really good, it's much more beautiful than Lao Shi's back then, but this

I only see the word brother

"Could it be that the ink dripped on it accidentally..." Yinzhen was halfway through speaking, but felt that the ink wouldn't come out in such a shape. After carefully looking at it, he guessed, "Could it be a book?"

After finishing speaking, Yinzhen looked more and more like him, and even felt that he understood what the little guy meant: "Chengan probably wants to tell us that he is studying!"

Yinti thought it was possible, nodded in agreement and then looked at the next picture.

On the next piece of paper, there was a crooked sheep character written on it, and a round sheep was drawn next to it.

"Cheng'an's sheep is getting better and better." Yinzhen boasted.

Yinti looked at it, although it was still dark, but at least he could vaguely see some wool texture, instead of a black sheep body, and said with a smile: "I think it is more or less rounded."
