This is the infant prince, who is waving his claws and howling. Yin A can barely keep calm with this magical sound filling his ears, it is so noisy.
There are women all over the Xinuan Pavilion. Don't get me wrong, they are all young and middle-aged women, all the nannies and nannies of the crown prince. There are also a few eunuchs kneeling on the ground making faces, "Hey, prince, please don't cry, look at the slaves."
"Prince, Prince~"
This tone made Yin's teeth hurt.
Kangxi, on the other hand, looked happy. His eldest son was holding his hand, and his second son was crying healthily. It was the first time that the emperor was so happy since the death of the queen and the war in San Francisco.
"Look at your brother."
Kangxi took the prince who had calmed down, held him in his arms for Yin'a to see, and asked, "Do you think my brother looks similar to you?"
Yin'a twitched the corner of her mouth: "My son thinks it's not obvious yet." No, I don't think he looks as good as me!
This is not bragging, Yin A has also looked in the mirror, even though it is a bronze mirror. But when he stands with Sulu, his appearance is above average, he is definitely a cute boy with good looks!
Kangxi looked at his two sons again. Indeed, Baocheng was too young to see much at this moment. However, the eldest son did look good. Kangxi did not judge himself - after all, there were some scars on his face, which were at least worse than those of Baoqing's three sons.
This uncle is good-looking.
Well, my son!
The emperor happily sent away the ministers, and asked the eunuchs sent to follow Yin A to come in for inspection. He found that the eldest Qin Ji was only half a year old, and the younger eunuchs were unsteady, so he asked all the apprentices from the consulting firm to serve the emperor.
eldest son.
All of them are ten years older than Yin A, and are already fifteen years old now. Moreover, they usually follow the emperor's Haha Zhuzi to practice Buku, and they look taller and stronger than their actual age.
In short, this man didn't look like a eunuch. Yin A looked at him and thought of Qin Ji and Guan Xing. In fact, none of the eunuchs he had seen had the "eunuch temperament" he imagined.
All quite normal.
"What are you thinking about?" Kangxi handed his youngest son to his wet nurse and saw Yin'a thinking deeply.
Yin'a opened his eyes wide and said: "My son is thinking whether he should give a gift to the prince. The wet nurse said that he should give a gift to Khan Ama, the two queen mothers, the prince, and the mother-in-law."
"...Haha, how old are you?" Kangxi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You are not old enough to treat Khan Ama as a son. Brothers, you are brothers, even if you are talking about kings and ministers, you should be like Ama and Yu
Prince, Prince Gong, and Prince Chun are the same, do you know who they are?"
Yin A shook his head blankly.
The emperor smiled and said: "Prince Yu is your uncle, Prince Gong, and Prince Chun are all your uncles. You can meet them in the future. Now Amma will take you to see the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng and the Empress Dowager Renxian. That is
Your great-grandmother and grandmother.”
Because of the establishment of the crown prince, the emperor began to add emblems to the empress dowager and empress dowager at the beginning of the year. At this time, the empress dowager was also chatting with the empress dowager in Cining Palace.
"When the eldest brother returns to the palace, there will be more and more children in the future!" The Empress Dowager, who was not yet forty years old, happily said to the Empress Dowager and Aunt Sumala, "We Ji Lan also have a younger brother.
Have you played, are you happy?"
Jilan Gege was the eldest daughter of Prince Gong Chang Ning. She was recognized as a daughter by Kangxi and was raised in the palace at the knees of the Queen Mother. This child was only five months older than Yin A and was born on November 28, the tenth year of Kangxi.
At first glance, she looks very sister-like, at least her face looks more mature than Yin-a's. This is the first impression of younger brother Yin-a's sister Ji Lan.
Kangxi took his son to greet the two empress dowagers. Yin'a stepped forward to salute, and as he stood up, he glanced around and saw the two women sitting above him. The older lady had a face that was like a thousand sails, with a relaxed and calm face;
The younger one was in pure joy, with a little girl in his arms. Standing next to him was a woman, probably Sumala Auntie, who also looked calm and joyful.
"Ma Ma, my grandson has brought your great-grandson here!"
Kangxi pushed Yin'a over. He didn't want the Empress Dowager to take over his great-grandson and look at him carefully, but first said to the emperor: "Keep your voice down, Ma Ma can hear it."
The emperor and everyone in the room laughed. The empress dowager took Yin'a and asked him what he liked to eat and play. She also pointed at the emperor and said, "Have you met your brother with your mother?"
Yin'a just smiled and nodded, and the Queen Mother over there pushed the milk and snacks over: "Have a taste of the palace," and coaxed the little girl beside her, "Does Ji Lan know who this is?
"
"Brother!" Ji Langge greeted with a smile.
Yin A didn't know where this sister came from, but although the little girl was mature, she looked very cute, "Sister, I am Yin A!"
"Brother, my name is Ji Lan!"
Ji Langge had never seen this kind of greeting method before, so she subconsciously replied with a look of uneasiness on her face. But the elders just smiled and asked the two children to sit down and eat snacks together, and asked the grandma to look at them.
Eat too much.
"Brother and Princess are getting older, and they will gradually learn to bow and horse." The Queen Mother expressed concern: "Our children cannot be raised in the house, even the bow and horse are useless."
"That's what I said. Just like when we were on the grassland..." The Empress Dowager began to recall her childhood. Aunt Sumala next to her looked at the expression on the Empress Dowager's face and was helpless.
The Empress Dowager sighed slightly but didn't say anything. In the early years when Emperor Shunzhi was still alive, she said everything she needed to say. Now that her sons are gone, only the Empress, who is her natal niece, is left. Why should she be scolded?
The Empress Dowager was thinking about the grassland with Lagu Sumala, and the Empress Dowager said to Kangxi: "I remember you said that the eldest son of the Mingzhu family passed the Jinshi examination? I heard that Gongma is also very good at it. Is it possible for the children under your banner?
You still have to get out of the Hanlin Academy! He, Cao Yin, and other people are all around you every day. You also have to study and practice archery every day. It's not a good time to teach two children at that time.
.”
As she got older, Ji Lan was raised by the Empress Dowager, so that the mother and son could communicate more. The Empress Dowager was also worried that she would be gone in the future, and although her grandson would be attentive and considerate, she still hoped that the two of them could really get along like a mother.
Love, that makes her feel at ease.
"That's what Mama said."
Kangxi also thought it was okay. Nalan and Cao Yin were both still young. As imperial guards, they had to accompany the emperor to practice archery, horseback riding, and Buku. Yin'a and Ji Lan were only a little older. It wasn't a problem for them to be enlightened. Waiting until the children
It would not be too late to make it slightly larger and equipped with a specialized riding and shooting expert.
"And..." The Empress Dowager considered it for a moment before speaking in a low voice, "The matter of establishing a queen."
The atmosphere in Cining Palace changed, and even Yin'a, who was still eating snacks and talking together, felt uneasy. Kangxi glanced at it and said: "Consultant, take the eunuch and take the eldest brother to Nalan first.
I will ask them to meet their mother and son. In the afternoon, I will send my brother back to Cining Palace to have dinner with my ancestors and my mother."
"It's time for Princess to take a nap." Aunt Sumala stood up and said, "I'll take Princess to take a nap." Then she said to Yin A, "Brother will come back in the afternoon and can play with Princess. I will go to see the empress first. OK?"
Yin A agreed crisply, and made an appointment with Ji Lan to play together in the afternoon, then resigned and was carried out by the eunuch. When they went out, the grandfather, grandson, mother and son were talking about something. It seemed that Kangxi still wanted to delay the matter after the confrontation. , and the Empress Dowager thought it was almost enough.
It is said that the living are not as good as the dead. This kind of affection and psychology are really vividly displayed in the emperor's attitude towards the crown prince.
Coming out of Cining Palace, bypassing Qianqing Palace and still taking the same path, you arrive at East Sixth Palace. Yanxi Palace is located southeast of East Sixth Palace.
"Mommy, let's see what's missing!" Nalanshi had already walked around the side hall several times, "It's the first day the child has come back, and I don't know what he likes."
Aunt Liu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Are you afraid that I won't be able to see my brother when he returns to the palace? Madam, please sit down first, lest I come back later and scare him."
Ever since Nalan entered the palace, Grandma Liu had been by her side, which was not too transgressive to say. Nalan also felt that she was too nervous, but she felt uneasy when she sat down, so she had to hold on to her handkerchief and wait outside. High eight grid report.
As soon as Yin A was brought to the East Sixth Palace by the consultant, Gao Zhuzhu, who had been guarding here, saw Qin Ji who was following his elder brother. He turned around and trotted back to the entrance of Yanxi Palace.
"Master, I saw Xiao Qinzi, he came back with my brother and Mr. Gu!"
When the short and sturdy Gao Bage heard this, he quickly pulled Gao Zhuzhu: "Don't say that Master doesn't love you, I'm giving you a good job, go in quickly and tell the master the good news, go quickly!"
Before Gao Zhuzhu thanked his master, he was pushed by Gao Bage. He hurriedly ran to the side hall, and his eldest aunt helped him lift the curtain. Gao Zhuzhu took a deep breath and knelt down and said: "I am here to announce the good news to my master. My elder brother is about to arrive at the palace gate! It was Mr. Gu who sent my elder brother back!"
Nalan stood up suddenly. Aunt Liu tried to pull her but failed. She watched helplessly as the concubine walked to the door.
"My son!" As soon as Yin'a was led to the entrance of Yanxi Palace, a warm embrace came to him. He was hugged so tightly by Nalan's family that he was suffocated.
The consultant walked by and said: "I was ordered to send my brother here. The emperor said that I have to send my brother back to Cining Palace before dinner in the afternoon. I will pick him up when I arrive."
"Thank you, Sueda." Nalan waved her hand: "Mama Liu."
Aunt Liu quickly handed over a purse, and Nalanshi said: "My brother has returned to the palace safely. This is a happy event. Shuida should be happy."
Ever since the concubines and the late empress entered the palace, the consultants had been dealing with them. He did not refuse, accepted the concubine, thanked the concubine, and then took them away.
When there were no other people around, Nalan personally carried Yin'a back to the palace. Mother Liu and Eunuch Gao were frightened by the sight of her, lest the child should fall.
Yin A was not afraid, not because of how mature his soul was, but because he felt that if he really fell, this woman would put herself underneath without hesitation.
"I don't know what you like," Nalanshi said, pushing a kang table full of food, "Mother Liu, quickly go and get the purse I sewed for my brother."
"I like everything from my mother!" Yin'a felt warm in his heart. Although... he had just eaten snacks, but luckily he didn't eat too much.
While Yin'a was eating snacks, Nalan's hand hung his son's purse with his own hands. Mother and son could talk about any topic they wanted. Nalan's also told him about his uncle's house. Only then did Yin'a know that his uncle Mingzhu had already done it. It is said that the emperor intended to train him to be a bachelor.
With her brother's help and her family's heirs, especially her son's safe return to the palace, Nalan's mood is getting better and better. In the past, she used to complain about which woman the emperor favored, but now she can't say not at all, just a little bit. She has a son. ah!
The longer you stay in the palace, the more you will find that instead of living with men, it is better for a woman to take care of her children. As long as there is a child under her knees, she will miss her, otherwise what is the meaning of life?
After spending an afternoon in Yanxi Palace, Yin A saw the clothes, purses, and accessories Nalan made for him, or for the child, each one of which was her mother's intention.
"Eniang asked Aunt Chen to send all these things to Qiandongtou. From now on, if you want to use them, let Aunt Chen prepare them for you." Nalan asked her son, "Auntie will take you to live with me." If you are afraid, tell E Niang at Tou Suo, and E Niang will request that you stay in Yanxi Palace."
"It's okay, Niang, don't worry, I will live by myself in the nanny's house!" Yin A deliberately acted cute and told Nalan not to worry.
By the time the consultant came to pick her up, mother and son, Yin'a and Nalan's family, were no longer unfamiliar with each other. Yin'a went out happily and said that he must come to see E Niang before returning home. Nalan's eye circles Although she was red, she didn't cry. With her son in front of her, she really had nothing to worry about.
Dinner in the palace was very early, around two o'clock in the modern afternoon. Before that, Yin'a and Ji Lan were playing shuttlecock in the empty field outside Cining Palace. Thank God, this was a boy's and girl's game. They were pretty much the same, but it was a bit of a mental barrier for him to play with a little girl playing with dolls.
However, chatting with Ji Lan surprised him that there was actually Cuju in the palace. But the bannermen did not play football on the land, but on the ice in winter...
He is really good at playing. Yin A has begun to look forward to winter. This winter, because he is too young, he is not allowed to go out. It is a pity.
After dinner in Cining Palace, it was said that something happened in the south study room and the emperor was taken away, leaving Yin'a and Ji Lan playing next to the two queen mothers. Perhaps because of his young age, Yin'a was eventually killed by the eunuch. He was carried back to Qiandongtou, and he didn't even know when he changed his clothes.
At this time, there was no universal rule in the palace, including the prince's upbringing, living, schooling, etc. In other words, although he had hastily learned from the previous dynasty, out of consideration of preventing the slightest change, he relied on eunuchs like the previous dynasty. , which is absolutely not possible.
There are many things that are being explored, and naturally there is no rigid dogma like it has been since the middle and late periods of Yongzheng. Yin A vaguely felt that his life should not be difficult.
So when Yin A slept happily until a quarter past midnight, and then was woken up, he got up with a clear head. Listening to the sound, Grandma Chen seemed to be arguing with another woman about something. Strange, what happened so early in the morning? Quite noisy.
