The Dragon Cub is a Qing Palace Group Pet

In the 55th year of Kangxi, the 24th prince was born.

No one knew that inside this little prince's body was actually a dragon cub that had just hatched from its egg.

While still in ...

Chapter 15

Seeing Cheng'an smile again on his face after getting the jade pendant, Yin'e touched himself and found that he didn't have the jade pendant, then turned to look at Yin'er.

"What are you doing?" Yinzhen noticed his gaze and asked, and the next second he saw him reaching out his hand to take off the jade pendant from his waist.

"Cheng'an you..." Before Yin'e had time to offer the jade pendant he had just obtained, Yin'er took it back and said, "Ninth brother, why are you so stingy? It's just a jade pendant. What's wrong with giving it to Cheng'an?"

Yinzhen glanced at him and said, "Why don't you send it yourself? Why do you have to interfere?"

He was not short of money, so naturally he would not care about a jade pendant. After saying that, he held the jade pendant and waved it in Cheng'an's direction, indicating that he wanted him to come and get it himself.

Cheng'an had looked over when Yin'e called him before, and now he saw the jade pendant in his hand and climbed down from Yinzhi's legs nimbly.

When he came in front of Yinzhen, he did not directly extend his hand, but shouted at him: "Brother."

"Here you go." Yinzhen originally wanted to raise the jade pendant to tease him for a while, but when he saw his well-behaved look, he restrained his evil taste and handed it to him directly.

"Hello, brother..." After Cheng'an took the jade pendant, the two jade pendants in his hand collided with each other, making a pleasant sound, which made him chuckle.

Children's happiness is always so simple. Although Yinzhen didn't understand what was so funny, he was infected by his emotions and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Ding Ling——

Cheng'an raised his little hand and knocked the two jade pendants together again, laughing as he listened to the sound.

Yinsi looked at his carefree smiling face and waved gently, "Cheng'an."

Hearing his voice, Cheng An trotted over to him, called out "Brother", and raised the jade pendant in his hand to bump it against his chest.

"It sounds really nice." After saying this, Yinsi handed him the jade pendant he had just taken off.

I didn’t know he liked it before, but now that I know, Yinsi naturally won’t be stingy with a jade pendant.

Seeing another jade pendant, Cheng An exclaimed "Wow" and took it. After calling him sweetly, he happily picked up the three jade pendants together.

Perhaps he was too happy, he ran directly in the warm room, and the jade pendants in his hands jingled as they bumped against each other.

He can now walk on his own for short periods of time, but his body is still a little unstable when he runs, and his swaying appearance is very interesting to watch.

Yin'e looked at him and laughed, then reminded him: "Run slower, don't fall."

It would have been better if he hadn't said this. As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng'an, who had run to Yin'er's side, tripped over his left foot and was about to fall forward with his body tilted.

Seeing this scene, everyone present was shocked and stood up one after another, but in the end it was Yinzhen, who was closest to him, who reached out and supported him before he fell.

Bang--

"Where did he fall?" Hearing the noise, Yin'e and others gathered over anxiously.

"You didn't fall, I helped you..." Before Yinzhen could finish his sentence, Cheng'an beside him suddenly burst into tears.

Yinzhen thought he had supported him in time and prevented him from falling, but he was a little confused when he heard the crying.

"Ninth brother, you are really something. You can't catch a child even though you are so close!" Yin'e complained and then squatted down to hold Cheng'an in his arms. "Don't cry. Tell me where did you fall?"

After Cheng An was held in his arms, he called out "Brother" and then cried even louder.

It was the first time that Yin'e saw him cry. After coaxing him for a while, he suddenly felt a little helpless and looked at Yinsi: "What should I do, my dear brother?"

Before Yinsi could answer, Yinzhen, who was standing by, saw that his face was red from crying, so he reached out and took him over and sat him down on a chair next to him: "Why are you crying?"

His voice sounded a little harsh. When Yin'e heard it, he was about to remind him not to be so fierce, but he noticed that Cheng'an's crying stopped.

Cheng An, whose eyes were red from crying, sniffed and cried out in grievance, "Brother..."

Yinzhen raised his hand to wipe the tears from his face, and then lowered his voice unconsciously: "Where did you fall? Where does it hurt?"

The person being asked shook his head and raised his hand and said, "Bad...bad..."

It turned out that although he was caught in time by Yinzhen when he fell just now, he did not fall, but the jade pendant in his hand hit the leg of the chair where Yinzhen was sitting, and the sound just now was also made by the jade pendant.

When he found the jade pendant was broken, he thought that it was a gift from his brother, and he immediately became sad and started crying.

After checking, Yinzhen confirmed that he was fine, except that a piece of the jade pendant in his hand was broken. He was relieved and said, "It's okay, it's just a piece of jade pendant."

Yin'e and the others beside him heaved a sigh of relief when they found out that it was the jade pendant that was broken, not him. When Yin'e saw that it was the jade pendant he had given as a gift, he said generously, "What's there to cry about? Ninth Brother will give you another one some other day."

He is not short of money, but few people can easily take money out of his hands on a daily basis. This shows that he is quite generous to his younger brother Cheng'an.

Cheng An didn't cry as loudly as before, but when he saw that there were only two jade pendants left out of the three jade pendants in his hand, there was still a slight cry in his nasal voice.

Seeing that he was so wronged by a jade pendant, Yinzhen continued to hold him with one hand and took off the jade pendant from his waist with the other hand and handed it to him.

Cheng'an had a good memory and remembered that his fourth brother didn't want him to pull the jade pendant around his waist, so he never touched the jade pendant again.

When he saw him giving the jade pendant to himself, Cheng An was stunned for a moment.

"Don't want it?" Yinzhen asked when he saw that he didn't take it.

"Yes." The person who had just cried spoke softly, and then stretched out her little hand to take the jade pendant.

Everyone thought that Yinzhen would be able to make him happy by giving him another jade pendant, but unexpectedly he turned around and looked at the one he had just dropped.

"Okay, who are you going to show off to with that little face? I'll have someone repair this jade pendant and send it to you." Yin'er's tone wasn't nice, but he wasn't actually impatient in his heart.

After all, the broken jade pendant was given by him, and Cheng'an's behavior showed that he cared about the things he gave him. On the contrary, if the jade pendant he gave was broken and Cheng'an had no reaction, although he would not care about a child, he would feel a little uncomfortable.

Cheng An heard his words and looked at him with blinking eyes.

Seeing his expression, Yinsi asked the eunuch who had just picked up the broken pieces of the jade pendant to hand it over to him and explained, "This jade pendant isn't too broken. We can find someone to repair it..."

Seeing the jade pendant put back in his hand, Cheng An nodded and finally smiled again.

After this incident, no one dared to let him run around on the ground anymore. Instead, they put him on the couch and played with some small toys to amuse him.

Probably because he had cried before, Cheng'an's little head began to nod after playing with his brothers for a while, and then he leaned his body directly on Yinzhen and fell asleep.

When Yinzhi saw him fall asleep in the middle of playing, he opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"Asleep." It was the first time that Yin'e saw him sleeping, so he said in a low voice. He felt a little itchy when he saw his eyelashes appear longer when he closed his eyes.

He had just stretched out his hand and hadn't touched him when Yinzhen raised his hand to block it. He immediately muttered a little unhappily: "He's not just your brother, so what if I touch him..."

Yinzhen heard something vaguely but ignored him. Instead, he raised his hand and asked someone to bring a small quilt to cover the little guy next to him, and then carefully laid him flat on the couch.

After Cheng'an's head fell on the couch, he suddenly turned over and lay on his side, with his little hands curled into fists and placed by his mouth.

Yin'e and others looked at him quietly, and they all felt that they had never seen a child more handsome and lovable than him.

When they noticed that his little mouth moved from time to time after he fell asleep, and then he uttered a childish "brother", the brothers present all smiled.

Hehe! Cheng An still misses me, his brother, in his dream...

Yin'e glanced at the people around him with his peripheral vision, thinking with some pride in his heart.

Although they didn't feel bored just looking at Cheng'an's sleeping face, but instead felt particularly peaceful in their hearts, they still had to go.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, both Yinzhen and his companions as well as Yinzhi, who met his younger brother Cheng'an for the first time, felt that time had passed too quickly.

Perhaps because he was in a good mood, when he arrived at the palace gate, Yinzhi thought of the incident when Yinzhen had angered the emperor's father, and couldn't help but say: "Sometimes death is not the worst punishment."

Although the emperor's methods in recent years were indeed not as harsh as in the early years, Yinzhi felt that the punishment of exile was not light, especially for those corrupt officials. How could they, who were used to enjoying wealth and glory, endure life in a bitter and cold place? Some of them might even die on the road.

"It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Third brother is right." Yinsi also added casually after hearing the words.

Yinzhen knew that what they said made sense, and nodded to show that he had listened.

Warm room in the Qianqing Palace.

When Kangxi came back, Cheng'an was still sleeping soundly on the couch.

His skin is delicate, and you can still see some marks around his eyes from crying.

At first, Kangxi had a smile on his face when he saw his youngest son's cute sleeping face. But when he found that he seemed to have cried, the majesty of the emperor was immediately revealed.

Kangxi originally thought that one of Yinzhen and the others had bullied him, but after learning the reason from the young eunuch, he couldn't help but touch his youngest son's face, thinking that he was really promising. He had never seen him cry on weekdays, but now he actually cried because he broke a jade pendant.

Feeling the itch on his face, the person who was still dreaming unconsciously stretched out his little hand and grabbed the finger.

Kangxi tickled his little hand with his fingers, then turned around and lowered his voice to order, "Go to my private storehouse and pick out a few jade pendants and bring them here."

"Yes." After Liang Jiugong agreed, he glanced at the little prince who was sleeping soundly on the couch, and went downstairs to pick out the jade pendant himself.

After he left, Kangxi looked at his youngest son's sleeping face. Soon he was infected with sleepiness and simply lay down next to him to take a nap.

It is easy to sleep in winter. Kangxi covered himself with the quilt brought by his servants and hugged a small heater with a milky smell. He fell asleep in a short while.

I don't know when it started snowing outside, but the house was as warm as spring.
