A familiar voice sounded behind him: "Sixth brother called me?"

Yinzuo: "..."

It's not scary to see the fourth child, it's embarrassing to be slapped in the face.

Yin Zuo looked down at Xiao Shisan and Xiao Qi, the two children were confused, as if they didn't know which of Yin Zuo's words was true.

Yinzuo: "..."

Yinzuo packed up his mood, pretended nothing happened and turned his head to say hello to the fourth elder brother: "Sit down, fourth elder brother, let's play hide-and-seek together?"

Fourth elder brother: "..."

The fourth elder brother has a straight face, he doesn't play such childish games!

Hu Tulinga blinked her eyes, tugged at the sleeves of the fourth elder brother and said softly: "Fourth elder brother and Xiao Qi to hide and seek together?"

Fourth elder brother: "...Okay!"

Yin Zuo: Hey!

With the joining of the fourth elder brother, Yinzuo's pressure suddenly eased. They played and played for a while, and the two children finally ran out of health and decided to call a truce.

The four of them sat around the stone table to eat and drink, Yin Zuo pushed the dessert plate towards the fourth elder brother: "Emiang made it by herself, try it."

The fourth elder brother took a piece silently. This time the dim sum was sweet and soft, not his preferred sweet taste, but the fourth elder brother also ate it with relish.

Yinzuo had a smile on his face.

The fourth elder brother suddenly remembered something: "Sixth brother, have you brought back the golden potato seeds?"

"Not yet," Yinzuo scratched his head, "I just came back, I'm a little busy."

One reason is being busy, and the other is that he doesn't want to do this by himself, it's too conspicuous.At first, he wanted to take time to look for the prince, but seeing the expectant eyes under the cold appearance of the fourth elder brother, Yinzuo felt moved and asked tentatively: "It's boring to be alone, is the fourth elder brother free to do it with me?"

The fourth elder brother immediately said: "Sixth brother has said so, I just find time to accompany me."

Yin Zuo nodded silently, thinking that if you reply slowly, maybe I will believe it.

I didn't expect his fourth brother to be interested in sweet potatoes, but after thinking about it, it makes sense, Emperor Yongzheng is a famous hard-working emperor!

Yinzuo smiled and said, "It's late today, let's meet again tomorrow to discuss."

The fourth elder brother nodded in agreement, Yin Zuo and the fourth elder brother sent the two sleeping children to Yonghe Palace, and then went back to Qiandong No. [-] together, and then separated.

The next day, Yin Zuo set off from the Imperial Hospital and gathered with the fourth elder brother in the Royal Garden. Unexpectedly, the fourth elder brother was not alone, and the fifth elder brother was also accompanying him.

The fourth elder brother explained: "Fifth brother heard that we are going to grow golden potatoes, so I want to come and see."

The fifth elder brother blushed slightly: "I heard that golden potatoes can make a lot of delicious food..."

Yinzuo: "..." As expected of you!

Yin Zuo and the fourth elder brother looked at each other, feeling a little helpless. They didn't expect the fifth elder brother to be a foodie, and would rather start from growing ingredients for one bite. What kind of spirit is this!

play with him!Must play with him!

Yinzuo smiled and said, "I have to bring someone here if I can't say it later."

The fifth elder brother was curious: "Who is it?"

Does anyone else love food as much as he does?

Yin Zuo shook his head, a little hard to say.Yesterday he forgot to avoid people when he talked with the fourth elder brother, but the two little ancestors listened to him halfway. Now they only think that farming is some kind of game, and they are arguing to play with him.

If they hadn't gone to the Empress Dowager's place to play with the Fifth Princess today, they would have followed her now.

Yinzuo didn't want to talk about this sad thing again, and discussed with the fourth and fifth elder brothers about growing golden potatoes.

There are enough seeds, Yinzuo bought a lot, ate and used some, and there are still a lot left.Now it is the fields that bear the brunt.

The land in the palace has its own planning, and most of them are used to grow various flowers and plants. The three of them searched around and couldn't find a suitable one. They couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. They couldn't pull out the flowers just because of this!

and many more……

The fourth elder brother stared at Yinzuo: "I remember that the sixth brother pulled out the flowers in the imperial garden before?"

It seems that it was for making scented tea or something, and was punished by Khan Ama.Isn’t growing golden potatoes more important than making scented tea? It’s okay to think about it again?

"..." Yin Zuo said weakly, "How many times do I have to explain that I just picked some petals and leaves, but I didn't pull them out, and the flower vines are useless, so why should I pull them out? , can Khan Ama just punish me for copying books?"

What he said made sense, but the fourth elder brother was a little embarrassed, and said with red ears, "Then what should we do now, if we can't do it, we can only plant it in the flower pond in the palace."

The flower pond in their palace is also carefully maintained, it is beautiful, what a pity to ruin it!

Yinzuo thought for a while: "Why don't you ask the prince!"

The fourth elder brother frowned: "Prince?"

"Yeah." Yinzuo nodded vigorously, "The prince is older than us and even better than us. Maybe he has a way."

They had no other choice now, the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother could only nod in agreement.The three immediately went to Yuqing Palace.

The crown prince received them in the study. He seemed to be very busy, with a thick pile of papers in his hand, and he was writing quickly with his eyelids down. Under the mist from the censer, it was a little unclear for people to see.

Yinzuo and others were brought in by the eunuch, the prince put down his pen and said calmly, "Sit down."

When he raised his head, Yinzuo was startled, because the prince's current state was not the same as before.A few months ago, he was a young prince with a bright moon and a clear breeze, but now his face is pale, his lips are slightly blue, his eyes are slightly red and bloodshot, his whole body is more than one layer of haggard, his temperament is not as peaceful as before, but he seems a little anxious.

Yinzuo stood up: "Second brother, are you uncomfortable?"

"It's really not comfortable, maybe it's because I've been too busy recently." This time, during Kangxi's southern tour, the crown prince was in charge of supervising the country. This was the first time he took on such a heavy responsibility.

The prince didn't take it seriously, and smiled lightly: "A few younger brothers are looking for orphans?"

"It's something, but it's not in a hurry, I'll take your pulse first." Yinzuo ran to the prince and took his hand. The prince frowned subconsciously, moved his hand, and finally let Yinzuo hold his wrist.

Yin Zuo was still rambling: "Second brother, I didn't mean you. Even if you are busy with government affairs, you should pay attention to your body. The work is endless. If you can't do it, find a few more people to share it with you. What are you trying to do..."

Ever since Kangxi was autistic due to the collapse of the empress dowager, Yinzuo and the prince spent a few days together in order to coax Kangxi, the relationship between the two has improved by leaps and bounds, otherwise Yinzuo would not have said these things.

However, as he spoke, his voice became lower and lower, and finally completely silent.

The prince frowned: "How?"

Yinzuo carefully observes the expression of the prince. On weekdays, he upholds the prestige of the crown prince. He is indeed reserved and difficult to get close to, but he is gentle and polite. He will never be like this. It seems that there is not much difference between peacetime and ordinary days, but there is a faint difference between his eyebrows and eyes. Impatient, just barely suppressed.

Combined with the prince's pulse condition... Yinzuo pondered for a moment and asked: "Is the second brother feeling depressed recently, irritable and irritable, seeing things that are not pleasing to the eye, difficult to control his temper, and often getting angry and scolding others?"

The prince was taken aback for a moment, he did have a temper recently, but wasn't that because of too much pressure?Scolding courtiers and palace people is also because they did not do something well.

Is there another reason for this?

Thinking of this possibility, the prince's face darkened, and his heart was burning with anger, but looking at the younger brothers, he tried his best to suppress his emotions, and said lightly: "What do you mean?"

"It should be poisoned," Yinzuo said, "I have to look at the place where you have been a lot recently."

The prince leaned back: "Gu has been eating and living in the study these days, you can see."

Yinzuo: "..."

It must be too hard!

……

The prince's study room is not small, Yin Zuo felt and looked at it inch by inch, and spent half a day checking it carefully, but found nothing.

The crown prince just assigned a little homework to the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother and then continued to deal with government affairs. He is currently checking the studies of the two younger brothers. The irritable prince is quite scary. The fourth elder brother has solid basic skills. It is a small snack that can be steamed by the prince's anger at any time.

Just when the fifth elder brother was about to hold back two packs of tears, the helpless Yin Zuo rescued him.

The prince looked at Yinzuo and raised his eyebrows: "Didn't find it?"

Yin Zuo shook his head, puzzled.Ordinarily, this kind of poison needs continuous contact to be effective. It must be placed in the place where the prince often stays. How could it not be found?

He wondered: "Second brother is really in the study all the time?"

"Gu will lie to you?" The prince squinted at Yinzuo and sneered.

Yin Zuo looked away, unable to bear to see the prince's current villainous appearance.I don't know if the prince will return to normal in the future, will he feel ashamed when he thinks about his behavior at this time?

Hey, as someone who has seen this scene with his own eyes, will he be on the prince's blacklist?

Yin Zuo thought about it in a mess, and his eyes fell on the incense burner beside the prince's case.Sandalwood was burning in the incense burner, and sandalwood has the effect of refreshing the mind. The prince has been busy with affairs recently, so he never leaves this spice every day.

The suspicion is really great.

Yinzuo didn't check the incense burner just now, because he smelled the fragrance as soon as he came in, and he didn't think there was a problem.But when all possibilities are ruled out, the rest has to be looked up even if it seems impossible.

Yin Zuo checked the incense burner with his hands, even pulled out the incense ash inside, twisted and smelled it, and said after a while, "I found it!"

Sure enough, the poison was added to the spices. The person who poisoned it was very clever. He used the rich flavor of the spices to cover the smell of the poison, and the amount was not large, so Yinzuo didn't notice it at first.

Fortunately, the poison was not serious, and it was discovered early. The prince is not a big problem now, as long as he stays away from the poison and takes a few medicines to recuperate.

Yin Zuo sat down to write the prescription, and heard the prince cursed in a low voice: Boss!

Yin Zuo pursed his lips, knowing that the elder brother was the most suspected in this matter. The eldest elder brother and the prince had been fighting for favor for many years, and the two sides gradually became really angry. No one knew what the other could do.But when Yinzuo thought of the young man on Yuzhou whose eyes were shining when he talked about military affairs, he always felt that he was not the kind of person who would do such a thing.

Yin Zuo opened his mouth and closed it again. He couldn't guarantee that the big brother didn't do it, and he couldn't guarantee that his subordinates wouldn't make their own claims, so he couldn't say a word of intercession.

He could only finish writing the prescription in silence, handed it to the prince's chief eunuch, and said: "Take it in the morning and evening, drink it for three days and see."

The chief eunuch took it with a bow, and went to the imperial pharmacy to get the medicine without mentioning it.

The prince looked at Yinzuo and raised his eyebrows: "Do you have something to say?"

Yin Zuo glanced at him in surprise, and since he was spotted, he said: "I don't know anything about the matter between you and elder brother, I just hope that second brother will investigate carefully, in case this matter has nothing to do with elder brother, It’s fine to wrong him, wouldn’t it be beautiful to let the real culprit go free?”

The prince snorted softly: "I don't know when you have such a good relationship with him?"

Yinzuo: "..."

No, is this some kind of tacit understanding between opponents?The elder brother asked him the same way on Yuzhou back then, even the sour tone was generally similar.

Yinzuo: What's wrong, my character design is a heartthrob, and the script is Shurachang?

He teased in his heart, but he heard that the prince really asked people to follow the clues to investigate, and even glanced at Yin Zuo, and said lightly: "Even if you don't tell, Gu will ask someone to investigate."

Yin Zuo nodded vigorously, it would be nice to be willing to check anyway!

The matter was settled, and the prince was angry again: "What is the hospital doing? Please get a Ping An pulse in three days. They didn't find out that you were poisoned?"

"I can't blame the imperial doctor entirely. The poison is not very obvious in the pulse condition. If I didn't know the second brother's personality and discovered the abnormality first, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find it just by feeling the pulse." Too hospital-speaking.

Cold knowledge: Doctors are not gods!

The prince snorted coldly: "They can't tell if the lonely man has become worse?"

"Uh, this poison only affects the mood, not the body," Yinzuo hesitated, "Second brother should pay attention to rest, don't be too tired."

In other words, the prince's poor health was caused by himself.

Prince: "..."

The prince usually does things in a very orderly manner, and if he hadn't been affected by the poison, he would not have shown flaws in his words. Yinzuo seized the opportunity to tease him once, and immediately felt satisfied, and left happily.

After this happened, he naturally didn't want to bother the crown prince any more. After leaving Yuqing Palace, Yinzuo said to the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother apologetically: "It's useless to delay the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother to accompany me for so long, and nothing can be done. Well, we have to find another way."

"It's okay." The fourth elder brother shook his head, "The prince's business is important. Fortunately, we came here today. It's not that I didn't gain anything, the prince's knowledge is really good!"

With a look of admiration for the prince on his face, Yin Zuo recalled in a daze that in history, Yongzheng seemed to belong to the princeling party at the beginning, and only after the prince was abolished did he start to stand on his own.

He waved away the messy thoughts in his head, clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, fourth brother and fifth brother, we will definitely find a place!"

……

A few days later, Yinzuo, the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother stood at the gate of Qianqing Palace.

Behind them are three little tails, the seventh princess, the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth bear child.

The fifth elder brother looked at the majestic palace gate and hesitated: "Do you really want to borrow a place from Khan Ama?"

Yin Zuo sighed: "Do we have any other options?"

Fourth elder brother and fifth elder brother shook their heads, no more!They have thought of several solutions in the past few days, but they have failed. If they don't hurry up, the golden potato will be destroyed.

The fourth elder brother took a deep breath: "Let's go, let's go in!"

Several people aggressively begged for an interview with a few small tails. Kangxi thought that something happened until Yinzuo explained his intention.He sat behind the table and looked at a row of little radish heads standing below. The oldest brother was 12 years old and the youngest was 14 years old.

Kangxi: "How many of you... want to grow golden potatoes?"

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm", several people nodded together.

Kangxi rubbed his forehead. He didn't hear Yinzuo's movement for a few days after returning to the palace. He thought the child was just joking around on a whim, but he didn't expect to really grow golden potatoes.

Thanks to Yinzuo who dared to think, when it comes to farming, the entire Forbidden City is no more suitable than the Qianqing Palace. Because Kangxi attached great importance to farming and mulberry, Tete set up a piece of land behind the Qianqing Palace for farming. He will not only go to the field himself, They also found someone to improve the crops, hoping to increase the yield.

A ready-made experimental field!

Yinzuo looked at Kangxi expectantly: "Khan Ama, can you?"

The rest of the people also looked at Kangxi in unison. Needless to say, the fourth elder brother and fifth elder brother, the seventh princess and the thirteen are already eager to try farming as a game. I was biting my finger thinking who Kangxi was.

Several children looked at him with their big watery eyes blinking. Kangxi twitched the corners of his mouth, waved his hands and said, "Go if you want."

He also didn't tell Yinzuo that he had asked the governor of Zhejiang to submit a note to explain the situation of the golden potato. Anyway, even if he asked, he would have to find someone to try planting to be at ease, so let them play with the children.

With Kangxi's permission, Yinzuo and the others rushed back excitedly. Fourteen twisted their buttocks and followed behind, looking very happy.

The area of ​​the experimental field is not small, and most of it has been planted with various crops. There are also a few eunuchs working in it. Seeing the princes and princesses coming over, they hurriedly greeted them.

Yinzuo waved his hand: "Leave one to help us with some work, and the others should do whatever they want, and don't worry about us."

All the people dispersed for a while, only one eunuch surnamed Chen stayed. Yin Zuo told him in detail how to grow golden potatoes. This was all he asked the people in Zhejiang when he bought golden potatoes. Yin Zuo had never planted land, not to mention the fourth elder brother and others. They were afraid that the planting would not be good, so they told Eunuch Chen the news they had inquired about.

Eunuch Chen originally thought that he would do physical work for these little masters, but he didn't expect him to guide them in planting golden potatoes. Although he had never grown this kind of thing, the principles of farming are similar. He is an old man who grows land , It is much faster to understand than Yinzuo and others, and after a little thought, he will guide Yinzuo and the others.

To plant golden potatoes, seedlings must first be grown. This field is fertile and has been deeply plowed. What Yin Zuo and others need to do is to select suitable potato seeds, insert them into the soil, and then water them.After a period of time, sprouts will appear on the potato seeds, and when the sprouts grow to a certain size, they will be transplanted into the ground, and the golden potatoes will be planted.

Yinzuo proposed in the spirit of experimentation: "Let's breed several groups and see which method has the best effect on raising seedlings?"

The fourth elder brother was very interested: "How to say?"

Just as Yin Zuo was about to speak, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a chubby kid squatting beside the field where young seedlings had already grown, stretching out his fleshy little hands, pulling out a small seedling with each hand, and throwing one at a time. Had a great time.

Yinzuo said angrily, "Fourteen!"

Yinzuo yelled at the brat, and was about to beat his little ass himself, but someone grabbed his arm.The fourth elder brother is impatient, and is interested in Yinzuo's words. He couldn't wait for Yinzuo to teach the child first, so he hurriedly said: "The grandma will take care of him, you continue to talk."

Seeing that Fourteen's nanny had already gone to hug him, Yinzuo asked Deqing to stare at him, and then continued to talk about his experimental ideas.

In fact, it is very simple, but it is to control variables and set up a control group.Do more groups and observe the effects of various factors such as sunlight, humidity, fertility, and soil quality on the results of seedling raising, so as to find the most suitable seedling raising method.

The fourth elder brother was thoughtful: "This method is not bad."

Eunuch Chen said with a smile: "Should we also test the fertility and soil quality, don't the crops grow better with the fatter the land?"

"Not necessarily," Yin Zuo said with a smile, "There are plants that like sun and shade, and those that are drought-tolerant and waterlogging. Naturally, the requirements for soil quality and fertility are also different. For example, watermelon likes sandy land, and soybeans cannot be fertilized too much." How fat, sweet potatoes must have a preference."

Yin Zuo also plans to try the cutting method when transplanting. He vaguely remembers that there is a kind that was cut and planted. I don't know if it is a potato or a sweet potato.

Eunuch Chen suddenly realized when he heard this. Yin Zuo didn't care whether he really realized something or not. He discussed with the fourth elder brother and fifth elder brother how to set variables and groups, and made an observation notebook with pen and paper.

When they were ready, several people began to work enthusiastically.Although Hutulinga and Yinxiang love to play, they are willing to be obedient and obedient, but Xiao Shisi is just messed up, not only can't help, but also makes himself covered in mud.

Yin Zuo frightened him: "If you mess around again, I will ask Khan Ama to spank your ass!"

Fourteen blinked, and hesitantly covered his little butt.

Yin Zuo was very satisfied with the effect, turned his head and continued to work, commanding Hutulinga and Shisan to run around to get potato seeds, and the two children screamed excitedly.

Therefore, the ministers who came to discuss matters in the Qing Palace could hear the childish laughter from behind from time to time, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Kangxi's expression was three points helpless and seven points proud: "The children want to farm and play, but I have no choice but to let them go."

She looked like my child was sensible and close to me.

Ministers: "..."

The ministers lowered their heads and began to think about the possibility of going home and farming with their children.
