In the lotus pond.

Now that the ninth elder brother and his wife and the tenth elder brother and his wife no longer live in the West Garden, their residence in the west garden becomes more relaxed.

The thirteenth elder brother lived in Zhongsuo by himself, while the fourteenth elder brother who lived with him before went to Nansuo.

However, every day at meal time, the fourteenth elder brother still came over and the two brothers ate together.

Otherwise it would be boring.

The two have been together in Zhaoxiang's house for several years, and have become accustomed to going in and out together, and are comfortable with each other.

There were more apples and grapes today. Brother Fourteen regretted a little and said, "Brother Ninth and the others have been there for four days. It's definitely interesting. It would be great if we could go too!"

The Thirteenth Brother glanced at him and said, "It's a round trip of more than two hundred miles, and we spend most of the time traveling. What's so fun?"

Brother Fourteen snorted: "Have I never traveled far on horseback?"

In the first half of the year, the southern tour was carried out by boat and there was no freedom of movement.

Brother Thirteen said: "I'm going out in a few days, and I'm afraid you won't want to ride a horse at all..."

The fourteenth elder brother beamed and said: "That's not possible. I am the Batulu of our generation, a man who grows up on horseback!"

Brother Thirteen nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait and see."

He was planning to take the car anyway.

I rode a horse last year, but then I couldn’t even close my legs when walking.

Brother Fourteen blinked, pointed in the direction of Tuoyuan Bookstore, and whispered: "Brother Ninth has a grudge, it seems he didn't send it to Tuoyuan Bookstore?"

The Thirteenth Brother's smile faded and he said: "The prince has a noble status and is different from you and my brothers. Ninth Brother was too sincere before, so it's better to stay away."

The fourteenth elder brother said angrily: "Why is it different? They are all the sons of Khan Amma?"

The thirteenth elder brother lowered his eyes and said: "A son is more valuable than his mother, which is also the rule of the Qing harem!"

The fourteenth elder brother hummed and said: "Then it is Manchu custom to be a direct descendant. Where can I explain this?"

Hechidongsuo.

The twelfth elder brother lives here.

He is sitting in the study, holding a book in his hand.

The aroma of apples hits your nostrils.

He looked at the fruit and his expression relaxed.

Before, he seemed to be a lonely ghost, so alone.

Before I knew it, I became close with my brothers.

This feeling is a bit strange, but it also feels good.

It seems that some of the resentment and resentment in my heart have dissipated a lot.

When did the change begin?

He was a little stunned.

It seems that at the end of last year, the elder brother and Fujin moved out, and the ninth sister-in-law became the eldest sister-in-law...

The west lotus pond.

This is the smallest of the four courtyards and has the fewest houses, so in the first month of the year and this time, the youngest fifteenth brother lived here.

He is urging grandma to load the dishes.

He asked his nanny to put a plate of apples and a plate of grapes into a food box, and planned to have someone send them to Tuoyuan Library as a tribute to the Crown Princess.

He divided the remaining plate of apples and the plate of grapes into two, kept half for himself, and planned to send the other half to the reading center.

There are now only six of his companions.

There are two vacancies and no suitable person has been able to fill them.

Previously, Brother Baofu and Xiaoliu went home to recuperate and returned after resting for ten days.

With the friendship of sharing weal and woe, everyone is closer than before.

*

After a while, the food box was delivered to Tuoyuan Bookstore.

The princess looked at the two plates of fruit, feeling tingling in her heart.

I have never seen such a well-behaved child.

When she first took over, she just followed orders and wanted to make sure there were no mistakes.

As a result, the fifteenth brother, with his innocent heart, was wholeheartedly attached to her.

Recalling what Shu Shu said last time, Akdun had privately warned his fifteenth brother that he was not allowed to visit her, the Crown Princess became cold-faced.

After being married to the prince for several years, she finally understood why the prince was tolerant of Aktun.

The emperor didn't like Aktun, and he didn't even want to see his half-brother.

But who knows what the future will be like?

If the crown prince ascends to the throne, I am afraid that this guilt will be doubled to compensate Akdun.

Aktun has been misled by his mother-in-law and lacks respect for himself.

If Aktun really succeeded to the throne one day, it would not be easy for his mother, the Empress Dowager, to do so.

The princess was a little indifferent.

For a moment, she didn't want to change the current situation.

The emperor's longevity is not a good thing for the prince, but it is a good thing for her.

If the third elder brother becomes a talent, or if there are other younger elder brothers who can teach him in the future, will Aktun's position still be transcendent?

Companion Reading Center.

The apples and grapes have arrived.

There are six apples, exactly one for each person.

There are three big bunches of grapes, and it is easier to divide them, one bunch for two people.

Needless to say, Cao Qi's string was separated from his cousin Li Ding.

Brother Baofu's string is not shared with Xiao Liu, but with Brother Chang'en.

Because Xiaoliu took a bunch and shared it with the youngest Xishan.

Perhaps because he has been a younger brother for so long, Xiaoliu is quite happy to be an older brother.

The children younger than him are all very caring.

It's just that around Xishan, it turns out that he is followed by two ministers' children, which is considered a small internal gang.

Now that those two have been cleared, Xishan is left alone.

Xiaoliu is very chivalrous and takes good care of Xishan.

Xishan is like a little chicken, following Xiaoliu around...

*

A deserted place is a palace of virtue.

Looking at the two big baskets of apples and grapes, the Queen Mother also made distributions.

"Qi Muge likes to eat the apple crisps at this time; the grapes are juicy, and Ao Dun likes to eat them..."

The wooden frame is that of Concubine Shuhui, and Ao Dun is that of Concubine Duanshun.

So, Princess Shuhui gave two plates of apples and one plate of grapes; Princess Duanshun gave them the other way around, one plate of apples and two plates of grapes.

The remaining few Geges have the same half plate.

Nine grid double copies.

New second institute.

Sanfujin was a little surprised when he saw the things sent by the Fourth Institute.

A few days ago, she was careless and spoke harshly, but was pushed back. She thought Shu Shu wanted to hold a grudge.

Later, she also understood.

Shu Shu was doing this to save face. After all, under everyone's noses, it was not easy to treat one brother and sister-in-law favorably.
