Although Yinzhen issued a ban, Yonghe Palace is the territory of Concubine De, and the most important thing to be a slave is to be loyal, and you can't hide everything from your master.

So as soon as Yinzhen left, the little eunuch reported to Jiang Ning on the back.

Jiang Ning also didn't expect the fourth elder brother to hear those words, so he couldn't help asking: "What was the fourth elder brother's expression at that time?"

"The slave stood behind the fourth elder brother, and couldn't see what the fourth elder brother looked like, but the fourth elder brother stood at the door for a long time, and when he left, he even told the slave not to tell the master. The slave heard the fourth elder brother's voice at that time, a little hoarse, as if he had cried. "

Jiang Ning nodded in satisfaction, motioned for Jade to give a reward, and said, "You did a good job, tell other people in the palace that when the fourth elder brother comes in the future, he must report it as soon as possible."

Fei Cui gave the little eunuch an exquisite purse, the little eunuch weighed it secretly, the weight was quite enough.The little eunuch said solemnly: "If you do things for the master, the servant will definitely do it wholeheartedly."

At the second moment of Shen Shi, the fourth elder brother slowly swayed over, followed by only the young eunuch Su Peisheng who was about the same age, holding an umbrella to shade Yin Zhen.

Seeing Concubine De standing eagerly waiting at the gate of Yonghe Palace, Yinzhen was obviously taken aback, and bowed stiffly: "Greetings to Concubine De..." His voice gradually weakened.

Yinzhen knew that it was inappropriate to call Concubine De a concubine at this time, but he couldn't say the word "Eniang".

Sure enough, Yinzhen saw the sadness on Concubine De's face fade away, then covered it up, smiled and took his hand, and said, "Come in quickly, Zhener."

It was almost dusk, and although the sun was not as fierce as at noon, there were still waves of heat rolling in from time to time.Along the way, the close-fitting underwear has long been wet with sweat, making it sticky and uncomfortably sticky.

Concubine De hurriedly asked someone to bring two clothes for Yinzhen to change into. Yinzhen picked out a stone-blue robe embroidered with the pattern of empty mountains and green bamboos.

After changing it, he stood in front of Concubine De a little cautiously.

Concubine De nodded and said, "Okay, it fits well." Remembering that Yinzhen came here just after school, she couldn't help asking about his studies, and Yinzhen answered them one by one.

Just as she was talking, Fei Cui led the little maid to bring up two bowls of sour plum soup.

While drinking, Yinzhen looked at the Yonghe Palace.The Yonghe Palace is not as luxurious as the Chengqian Palace. There are very few precious antique jades displayed, but it looks very warm.An ice basin is placed in an inconspicuous place on both sides of the wall. The mouth of the basin is covered with a fine net. There is a blooming hosta next to it, and a wind wheel is placed behind it. The wind wheel rotates, cool breeze blows, and the fragrance is overflowing, fragrant and elegant.

At this time, the cry of a baby was heard from afar, but it was the nanny who came in holding the fourteenth brother, and replied: "Madam, the fourteenth brother can't stop crying, no matter how much the servant can't coax him."

Concubine De looked over, and saw the old fourteen spread his hands, and said with a sob: "The forehead is cool...hug..."

Brother Fourteen was born in January of the 27th year of Kangxi. He can speak just now, but he is still not good at it.

Followed by Twelve Gege, Twelve Gege was only three years old, he was led in by the nanny, his fleshy little hands were folded and pressed to the side, his legs were slightly bent, and the nanny said softly, "Greetings to my mother. "

Concubine De held Fourteen in her hand, beckoned to Twelve Gege, pointed to Yinzhen and said to the two children: "This is your fourth brother, send your greetings to Fourth Brother." Concubine De also gave birth to Seven Gege and Nine Gege. Ge Ge, but Qi Gege died two months after he was born, while Jiu Gege was adopted by the Queen Mother and now lives in the Ningshou Palace of the Queen Mother.

Twelve Gege called "Fourth Brother" sweetly, walked over to Yinzhen, grabbed his robe, looked up at Yinzhen, with a cute expression "begging for a hug".

Yinzhen's heart melted immediately, he put down the unfinished sour plum soup and hugged Twelve Gege on his lap.However, Yinzhen obviously had never hugged a child before, his hands and feet were stiff, and his already paralyzed face was tense.

However, Twelve Gege moved his little butt, found a comfortable position, and tilted his head to watch Brother Fourteen cry.

These two days have been hot, and Brother Fourteen is a non-stop master, often sweating, so Jiang Ning simply put a bellyband on him.

Wearing a bright red bellyband, only white jade lotus root-like arms were exposed, the face of the fourteenth elder brother who had just cried was red, just like a cute and innocent blessing doll in a New Year painting, pink and cute.

The fourth elder brother fell in love with this younger brother who was ten years younger at a glance, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

Facing the stranger who suddenly appeared, Fourteen blinked his eyes twice, then grinned, and burst into tears with a "wow".

Concubine De hurriedly got up and took small steps to coax softly in the hall.

Yinzhen saw with sharp eyes that Fourteen's little red bellyband was yellowish, and the edges of the embroidery patterns were also a little old, as if it had been placed for many years. Yinzhen thought quietly, now Concubine De is one of the four concubines. The government doesn't have the guts to give the old clothes to Elder Fourteen to wear.

The pattern on the bellyband looks like a pony, but as far as he knows, the zodiac of the fourteenth brother is a dragon, and he is a horse. Could it be...

Jiang Ning followed his gaze, landed on Fourteen's apron, and said with a sigh: "This apron was made for you back then, but unfortunately you didn't use it. I thought, although these clothes are a bit old, but they are put away. After so many years, the fabric has softened a lot, so I put it on for Fourteen."

Before Yinzhen could express anything, Twelve Gege shouted: "I have ponies too!" After speaking, he held up the jade pendant tied around his waist, and showed it to Yinzhen as if showing off.

Seeing the pony-shaped jade pendant and the fourteenth brother's pony bellyband, Yinzhen's heart warmed. It turned out that Erniang had never forgotten him, and gave the things representing his zodiac to his younger siblings, as if he had never left Same.

It didn't take long for the meals in the small kitchen to be served dish by dish.

Dining in Yonghe Palace is not like in Chengqian Palace. In Yonghe Palace, Concubine De only used a small round table. Concubine De, him and twelve younger sisters, including fourteenth younger brothers, barely made up a table.There were not many dishes on the table, and there were only a dozen of them together, not even half of the emperor's mother's imperial meal, but Yinzhen was very happy to see it, it was all his favorite food.

The queen's mother would always use that wide and long dining table for meals, with dozens of dishes placed in the center, delicate and delicate, but in his opinion, it was as boring as a task that had to be completed every day.

But it also indicates that there will always be an insurmountable gap between him and the Queen Mother.

The Queen's wife respected the rules, she never talked when she ate or slept, and he never dared to make the slightest noise while eating.Even the sound of bowls and chopsticks being accidentally rubbed against each other will be regarded by the empress as "no rules", but in Yonghe Palace, Concubine De is sitting next to her, laughing and talking to Yanyan, and she can touch it with a slight lift of her elbow. When she got her, she hugged the fourteenth brother who was entertaining himself with a rattle in her arms, and the twelfth younger sister sat next to him, obediently waiting for him to bring her food. Yinzhen likes this warm feeling very much, just like Like a family.

family.

Yinzhen recited these words silently, raised his head and met Shangde Concubine's gentle eyes, Yinzhen smiled back, they are a family, aren't they!

After dinner, Yinzhen still had to go to riding and archery lessons. Concubine De reluctantly said goodbye to him, and asked Su Peisheng to take good care of the fourth elder brother.

"My mother."

The voice was very soft, but in the quiet evening, Concubine De could hear it very clearly. She stared at Yinzhen without blinking until her cheeks flushed when she saw Yinzhen. He said shyly: "Er Niang, The son is leaving first."

Concubine De covered her mouth and looked at him with a "puchi puchi" smile, Yinzhen was so embarrassed by her stare, she turned around and was about to leave, but was held back by Concubine De, who saw her take a sheepskin water bag from the maid's hand , said: "It's filled with sour plum soup. Although the sun is low now, you still have to practice riding and shooting for several hours. It will definitely be too hot. Sour plum soup can relieve the heat and cool down. You should drink it first. It's not enough." I’m calling someone to pick it up from Emiang’s place.”

Yin Zhen found out the water bag, nodded, turned around, and walked away.

Looking at Yinzhen's back from a distance, until she could no longer see her, Concubine De returned to the hall, waved away the others and said to Fei Cui: "Fei Cui, go and pick a few court ladies who are clean and good-looking, first carefully teaching."

Fei Cui is worthy of being Concubine De's right-hand assistant, she understood what she meant after only a few words: "Your Majesty wants to give it to Fourth Elder Brother."

"The servants around Yinzhen were all sent by Mrs. Tong Jia, so I don't feel at ease. Besides, Mrs. Song has been restrained, and Mrs. Li is the only one left by Mrs. Yinzhen's side. Mrs. Li is the only one left by Mrs. Li. She looks like a quiet girl with a seductive look on her face, if no one restrains her, wouldn't it be a disaster."

"Remember, you must be honest and responsible. I don't want a woman who will hold Yinzhen back in the future."

On the eighth day of July in the 28th year of Kangxi, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hurry up to make the golden book and gold treasure used by the queen. The whole palace knew that there was going to be another queen in the palace. The concubines inquired about Tong Jia's physical condition. Another mother of the country came out of the harem, asking them to greet each other every day.

Concubine De was the only one who did not panic and listened to the news that Fei Cui had inquired about without panting.

"It seems that there is Li Gege next to the fourth elder brother?"

Concubine De frowned: "Are you sure?"

"It can be seen that Li Gege often wears loose clothes recently, and the food he uses avoids cassava, soft-shelled turtle, crab roe, etc. that pregnant women should not eat. But the specifics need to be determined by the imperial physician," Fei Cui replied.

"Don't worry, Gege in Elder Brother's office asks for pulse every March, and in a few days it will be Li's time to ask for pulse." Concubine De said: "If you are diagnosed at that time, watch carefully, whether it is Ah Brother or Gege, this is the first heir of the fourth elder brother."

On the ninth day of July in the 28th year of Kangxi, Tong Jia was established as the queen, and an imperial edict was issued to the world.

On the tenth day of July in the 28th year of Kangxi, Tong Jia's family died, and her posthumous title was Empress Xiaoyi.Go up and down for five days.All the kings and below, civil and military officials, princesses and concubines below, and women above the second rank of the Eight Banners all gathered to express their condolences.Hold for 27 days.
