After a period of time, the emperor and the empress dowager returned to Beijing. Now there are many concubines who are pregnant in the palace. Everyone just went to the palace gate to greet them, stood for a while, and greeted the emperor and the empress dowager. They each went back to the palace, and Yinzuo didn't take the opportunity to ask Huang Ama for that golden lotus. If Huang Ama forgot, he didn't want anything else, and it would be enough to compensate for a real "golden" lotus flower. .

Kangxi took a short break, and the first place he went was Chengqian Palace, where the imperial concubine lived.

"My concubine welcomes the emperor."

"There is no need to salute, sit down and talk." Kangxi took three steps in parallel, supporting the arms of the imperial concubine, and looked at her belly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has worked hard on this journey. I heard that Wutai Mountain is beautiful and there are many holy monks. It's a pity that my concubines are burdened by this in my stomach. I don't have the good fortune to go with the Emperor in person."

"It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future, wouldn't it be better to take our little elder brother with us in the future?" Kangxi's tone seemed to really hope that this is an elder brother.

The imperial concubine lowered her eyes, and her heart tightened. She has been with the emperor for more than ten years. She has always known that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. Elder brother, it is inevitable that we will be involved in seizing the heir in the future, this is not what the emperor wants to see.

Tong Jiashi smiled and stroked her stomach, and said softly: "The concubine is looking forward to being a princess. Xiaoliu has always wanted a cute and cute sister, and the concubine also thinks that a daughter is more caring."

"That's not bad, as long as it's our child, whether it's Elder Brother or Princess, I like them all. By the way, what about Xiao Liu?"

"Going to play in the womb of the crown prince."

Kangxi nodded, and chatted with the imperial concubine about what he had seen and heard in Mount Wutai.

"Emperor Huanggui~Xiao Liu is back~~"

People didn't see it before, but they heard his voice first. Kangxi and the imperial concubine stopped talking and smiled at each other.

"Little Liu, during my absence, he was like a wild horse that had run loose. Hearing this loud voice, I knew he was in good spirits."

Yin Zuo saw an old acquaintance at the door, he stopped and said with a smile: "Long time no see, Eunuch Liang~"

"My servant greets the sixth elder brother and the fourth elder brother. The emperor is inside, the two elder brothers hurry up and go in."

These sixth princes are the best to get along with. Although they don't see them often, they will greet him every time they go home. Liang Jiugong likes him from the bottom of his heart.

"Huang Ama really misses me the most~ He must have come to fulfill his promise!" Yin Zuo ran into the hall full of expectations.

"Greetings to Huang Ama~"

Just now Kangxi heard what Yinzuo said outside, he was rarely embarrassed, because he really didn't remember the agreement with Yinzuo, and he forgot the name of Lao Shizihua, let alone give Yinzuo Bring it all the way back.

Kangxi coughed twice, and then told the two sons to get up.

Yin Zuo immediately threw himself into Huang Ama's arms, looked up at him expectantly with staring eyes, and asked, "Huang Ama~ Where's the golden lotus?"

"...Liang Jiugong!" Kangxi planned to bring trouble to the east.

Liang Jiugong, who was waiting at the door, walked in quickly and asked, "Your Majesty, your name is a servant?"

"Where's the nasturtium brought back by Brother Six?" Kangxi took advantage of the little guy in his arms not paying attention, and gave Liang Jiugong a look.

Liang Jiugong was an old man by Kangxi's side, so he immediately understood that when the emperor was in Mount Wutai, he didn't remember the nasturtium.

"Tell the accompanying servants to keep it, but you have just come back, the emperor, and you haven't packed up your things. I'm afraid you won't be able to find them for a while." Liang Jiugong's face was embarrassing.

The imperial concubine and Yinzhen on the side knew in their hearts that the emperor probably forgot that they were fooling Xiao Liu when they joined forces with Liang Jiugong, but they were not easy to keep quiet at this time, the important thing was that if Xiao Liu found out the truth, they might be sad So they spoke out to help cover up.

"Xiao Liu, this time your Huang Ama and your mother Ukuma went to Mount Wutai together, and they brought a lot of things. If there are too many things, it will take some time and effort to pack them up. Let's wait patiently for a while. That's it." The imperial concubine comforted him with a smile.

"But what if the nasturtium has not been picked up for a long time and withers? It's already the beginning of summer, and the roots of those flowers and plants are most likely to rot and wither." Yinzuo pouted his mouth a little worried.

"No, even if one or two of them wither, they won't all go bad. I'll plant them with you when the time comes." Yinzhen also helped to speak.

"Well, if you feel dissatisfied when the time comes, I will ask someone to go to Wutai Mountain again, hurry up and bring back some intact nasturtiums for you, okay?" Kangxi had an idea and thought of a remedy .

Only then did Yinzuo nod his head, and replied, "Okay then~"

Of course, half a month later, when Yinzuo saw his Huang Ama again and asked about it, the answer he got was that the flowers were all dead, and he had sent someone to Wutai Mountain to bring a new batch back to Beijing. You can go to the palace in the next day.

Now that the emperor has returned to the palace, all the government affairs should be handed back. Now there are two people who are at the desk in Yuqing Palace, one is the crown prince and the other is Yinzhen. As for Yinzuo, he is completely free. , enjoying the ice in the prince’s portion every day, eating fresh melons and fruits, and occasionally begging for a small half piece of snacks from the prince’s brother.

In June, the imperial concubine activated.

It's a pity that after the baby was born, it looked very weak, and the crying sound was not as loud as a kitten's meowing.

Yin Zuo hadn't spoken to Huang Gui Erniang for ten days, and every time he greeted him outside the hall through the door, today he and his elder brother came to the main hall again.

"Is Huanggui Erniang okay? How is the eighth younger sister?" Yinzuo asked the maid standing outside the hall.

The maid hesitated for a while, then nodded.

"Sixth elder brother, don't worry too much. The empress is well, and so is Little Gege."

Yinzhen frowned when he heard the words, Yinzuo was a little at a loss, so he could only turn his head to look at his brother and let him make up his mind.

"Since that's the case, then you go in later and tell Huang Gui's mother that I have come to greet her with Sixth Brother."

The maid slightly bent her knees and said: "Don't worry, fourth elder brother, this servant will definitely tell the empress."

At this time, there was a sudden exclamation from inside: "Little Gege! Little Gege! Go get the imperial physician!"

The door was opened from the inside, and an eunuch came out, but before he had time to salute the two brothers, he ran away in the blink of an eye.

Yinzuo was a little scared, he couldn't help but grabbed his elder brother's sleeve, and leaned closer to his elder brother. Last time, the seventh sister who was born to Erniang was also in poor health. One day, she suddenly disappeared from the palace. The eighth younger sister watched The situation is not as good as Seventh Sister.

Yin Zhen, who noticed his movements, took his own hand and said to him, "Don't be afraid, brother is here."

"Brother, I...I want to go in and see Huang Guieriang and Eighth Younger Sister, can you accompany me?"

Yin Zuo was afraid that if he didn't go in and have a look, he would never see her again. The imperial doctor said that the eighth sister was weak, and it was best not to get close to strangers. He only saw her from a distance on the day when the eighth sister was born.

"Xiao Liu, let's wait here for a while, wait for the imperial doctor to show it to the eighth younger sister, and when the situation is better, we will mention it to Huang Guieriang."

Yinzhen was afraid that Huang Guieriang would blame Xiaoliu for the death of the eighth younger sister. After the birth of the eighth younger sister in the previous life, Huangguieriang did not allow anyone to come close. A new maid came in to clean it. What's more, the eighth younger sister died on the second day, and finally the innocent court lady was secretly executed by the queen's order.

After all, it was the imperial concubine who gave the order, so the people in the imperial hospital dared not delay. Not long after, an imperial doctor with a medicine box ran in panting heavily.

The door was open, Yin Zuo had good eyesight, he quietly poked his head in, stretched his neck to look in, and saw Bamei was hugged and placed on the couch, the imperial doctor took the old needle and stabbed Bamei She poked a dozen sticks on her body in a row.

"Brother! How could the imperial doctor poke Eighth Sister with a needle! Eighth Sister will definitely hurt! Why didn't Huanggui Erniang stop you?" Yinzuo anxiously tugged at his elder brother's arm, and threw it away several times with his small mouth. A question arises.

Yinzhen patted him on the back and explained to him: "It's acupuncture, it's used to treat diseases, it doesn't hurt."

Yin Zuo, half-believing and half-doubting, quickly continued to peek inside the door frame.

"Imperial Concubine, little Gege is fine now, but he needs to take care of himself. It's hot summer now, and the hall should be ventilated from time to time. It's not okay to keep little Gege stuffy."

"It's Bengong who cares about it, and it's chaotic. I'm in confinement now, I can't see the wind, and I'm worried about Little Gege. I don't feel at ease if I don't see it in person. If I didn't think about it, it almost caused a disaster. Thank you, the doctor today."

"The imperial concubine is too polite. This is the duty of the humble minister. I will resign."

When Tong Jia watched the imperial doctor leave, he suddenly found Xiao Liu who was leaning against the door. As soon as he saw him, he waved to him happily. Sorry, because of Little Gege's safety, she hasn't seen the two brothers for a long time.

"Xiao Liu, come in with your brother." Tong Jiashi smiled and hooked him as before.

Yinzuo immediately dragged his elder brother to go inside impatiently, but he didn't dare to get close to the eighth younger sister, and obediently stood still three steps away.

He obediently called out: "Mother Huanggui~ Xiaoliu misses you so much~~"

Tong Jiashi continued to hook his hands at him, and said with a smile: "Come here, come to Ben Gong, let Ben Gong take a good look at you."

Yinzuo bit his lower lip lightly, and then walked to the imperial concubine's bed.

Tong Jiashi pinched his little face, and said with some distress: "Why have you lost so much weight? There is less flesh on this face, but you are picky eaters again?"

Seeing the imperial concubine's protruding cheeks, sunken eye sockets, and pale complexion, which was completely opposite to the plump and healthy appearance when Er Niang gave birth to her seventh younger sister in confinement, Yin Zuo was very worried.

"Huanggui's mother is thinner than Xiaoliu. Huanggui's mother is not eating well. Huanggui's mother doesn't take good care of herself. How can she take care of her eighth younger sister?" Yin Zuo said angrily.

On the contrary, Tong Jiashi, who was being disciplined by the child, said dumbfoundingly: "Okay, okay, I listen to Xiaoliu, I must eat well, and Xiaoliu should be obedient."

Tong Jiashi rubbed Yinzhen's head again, and said to him: "Xiao Si, you have to look after him for Ben Gong, if he is not obedient, when Ben Gong is confinement, he will be punished." .”

"Yinzhen will take good care of my younger brother for Huanggui's mother, please rest assured, Huanggui's mother."

Although he already knew what was about to happen, Yinzhen was also powerless, he couldn't change anything, the eighth younger sister was weak, he couldn't keep it, and Huanggui's mother was sad, he couldn't help, he could only watch helplessly.

Yin Zuo stood on tiptoe, kissed Huanggui's mother gently on the face, and then said very sensiblely: "Huanggui's mother, the nanny said, don't work too hard during confinement, Huanggui's mother Lie down and rest quickly, Xiao Liu will obediently wait for Huanggui's mother to give birth."

When the imperial concubine heard these words, she was both happy and sad. She couldn't take care of her two children these days, but the children still cared about her, and her eyes immediately became moist.

"Good boy, both of you are good boys, then go." The imperial concubine didn't want the children to see her lose her composure.

Yin Zuo walked halfway, and suddenly turned around and said to her: "Your Majesty Huanggui, you must be well, and the eighth younger sister must also be well~"

"En." The imperial concubine nodded with a smile while shedding tears, and she agreed.

No matter how meticulous the care was, Bagege still couldn't live to the full moon, and Tong Jia fell ill again before she was confinement.

Yinzuo never left Chengqian Palace again, and ran to the imperial concubine's bed early every day.

"Young lady~ are you awake?" Yinzuo lifted the bed curtain, stuck his little head in, and asked in a very low voice.

Tong Jiashi, who was pretending to sleep with her eyes closed, had no choice but to open them, and inadvertently wiped the corners of her eyes.

"Xiao Liu, didn't I tell you? You don't have to get up so early and rush to come here. You can sleep a little longer. Didn't you like to sleep late?"

"Xiao Liu has had enough sleep~ Could it be that Huanggui's mother dislikes Xiao Liu's work too much?" Yinzuo looked at her pitifully with those big eyes and asked.

The imperial concubine quickly sat up, touched his little face, and explained: "How come! I have never disliked Xiao Liu before! Then what shall we do today?" She immediately changed the subject.

"Emperor Huanggui, get up and make up first, and then Xiaoliu will tell you~"

"You're still playing tricks, that's all, I'm according to you."

After the imperial concubine experienced the pain of losing her daughter, all thoughts were lost, so she couldn't afford to get sick. Who would have thought that this little guy would come to supervise her every day like a little housekeeper, urge her to eat and drink medicine, read poems to her, and tell jokes for her. She also had to make up for her, saying that she was going to give her a surprise, the make-up... Let alone, since then, she has not felt so depressed.

"The imperial concubine is so pretty~" Yinzuo did not hesitate to praise the imperial concubine who had finished dressing.

Tong Jia scolded with a smile: "Slick tongue, why do I have to make up today?"

"Emperor Huanggui, drink the medicine first, then talk~"

"I'm already cured, the medicine is very bitter, so don't drink it!"

"That's impossible! The imperial doctor didn't say that you can stop the medicine. If Huanggui Erniang doesn't drink it, the disease won't get better completely. If Huanggui Erniang doesn't get better, Xiao Liu will be sad. Xiao Liu wants to cry when she is sad~"

As he spoke, Yinzuo's tears filled his eyes.

Tong Jia quickly wiped away his tears, and then said softly: "Okay! I can't drink it! Xiao Liu, please don't cry, it will break my heart."

Yinzuo is also very talented, the tears stopped as soon as he said he would stop, then he looked at the medicine bowl held by the maid, and then at the imperial concubine, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

The imperial concubine's heart was ruthless, she picked up the medicine bowl and drank it down, then frowned and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

"Xiao Liu invites Huanggui's mother to eat sweet and sour plums~" Yin Zuo had already taken one from his purse and held it high.

The imperial concubine squatted down skillfully and let him feed her.

"This plum is a little more sour than the one I ate yesterday."

"Really? Then I'll let Shun Shui go to the imperial dining room to buy a box of sweets~"

"It's not necessary, it will save you from eating too much, and you will have a toothache later." The imperial concubine deliberately laughed at him.

"Oh~ I was seen through by Huanggui's mother~~" Yin Zuo had a very regrettable expression.
