Ukuma Ma
As soon as the curtain was opened, the children rushed in crying and ran straight to Empress Xiaozhuang.
Xiaozhuang felt much more relaxed when she saw the group of lively children. She was so fond of each of them that she hugged Yinreng with one hand and Yinzhi with the other.
"Why are you guys here together?"
Yinzhi said in a baby voice, "My brother and sister brought it here."
Xiaozhuang smiled and hugged Yinzhi, rubbing his head.
"Yinzhi is the best, Ukuma Ma likes you the most."
When Yinzhi heard this, he immediately smiled brightly, "Yinzhi also likes Ukuma Ma the most."
Yinreng pinched his little face and said, "You said last time that you liked me the most."
Yinzhi also pinched his little face, "You said you liked me yesterday."
Yinzhi immediately shut up, his big, sparkling eyes full of innocence⊙▃⊙
Rongpin sat aside and watched the children playing with a smile, "The eldest prince and the crown prince often visit Xiaosan and teach her to read."
Concubine Hui covered her mouth and chuckled, "If you say so, then Bao Qing has nothing to do. He can even skip classes to go fishing, how can we expect him to teach the mistress?"
When talking about this, everyone laughed, and Empress Xiaozhuang laughed helplessly.
He pointed at Yinzhen's head, not knowing what to say, and finally just smiled and shook his head.
Yinzhen was not shy at all, "Fishing is fun, too. When Xiaosan grows up a little, I'll take you fishing, okay?"
Yinzhi replied quickly, "Okay."
The group of people were talking and laughing happily. When Kangxi arrived, the concubines had already left, leaving only a few children here to have dinner with the old lady.
"Why is the emperor here at this time?" Xiaozhuang was a little surprised.
Kangxi glanced at the children, and after they had paid their respects and bowed, he smiled and said, "My grandson heard that these little guys were all here, so he came over to join in the fun."
Empress Xiaozhuang was really happy today. After Su Malagu ordered people to add more bowls and chopsticks, everyone sat down to eat.
Yinreng fed Yinzhen egg custard, and Yinzhi still looked eager to try, which made the two princesses smile secretly.
"What are you laughing at?"
Yinzhen looked over with his eyes wide open, and the two princesses immediately stopped smiling.
As Yinreng fed him, he said, "Of course I'm thinking of my elder brother's heroic deeds last year."
Yinzhen didn't think about this at first, but when he saw everyone looking at him and laughing, he suddenly remembered the last time when he failed to feed the egg custard and directly put the bowl on Xiaosi's head.
"Hey, it's been a while, how come you still remember it?"
Seeing Yinzhi's blushing face, Yinreng couldn't help but laugh, "It's not just us who will remember this. I'm sure Xiaosi will remember it for the rest of his life."
Since Xiao Si was given to Xiaozhuang to raise, his chances of competing for the throne were effectively eliminated. Consequently, Yinreng's hatred for him from his previous life gradually faded.
Since some things are destined not to happen in this life, let's get along well.
Duan Jing couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and was caught in the act by Yinzhen, who flicked her head.
Duan Jing immediately complained, "Ukuma Ma, big brother hit me on the head."
Xiaozhuang was already laughing so hard that she no longer had the heart to help her settle the lawsuit. Instead, Kangxi glared at Yinzhen and said, "How dare you bully your sister?"
Yinzhen said nothing, and Duanjing stuck out his tongue at him proudly.
After the meal, Xiao Si was just laughing. If Yinreng hadn't fed him egg custard from time to time, he would have cried from hunger.
Days passed, and soon it was the prince's birthday.
At Yinreng's strong request, there was no palace banquet for this year's birthday, and his brothers and sisters set up a table together in the imperial garden.
Yinzhen had already arranged for Li Zhong to bring the fishing tools and take Yinzhi to go fishing properly.
He Yuzhu took a few palace maids to set up a big pot to stew fish soup, and set up a rack to prepare grilled fish later.
Yinreng was holding Xiaosi in his arms and eating cakes and fruits in the pavilion, while the two princesses were chasing butterflies in the garden.
The main focus is on everyone playing their own game.
“Ahhhhhh—”
After a flutter, Yinzhi let out a clear cry of joy, "Fish—fish—"
Yinzhen covered Yinzhi's mouth and said, "Stop shouting, the fish are scared away."
Yinzhi was giggling even with his mouth covered. Tinghe and the eunuch cleaned up the fish they caught and threw them into the pot to make soup.
The big fish caught by Yinzhen was cleaned up by Su Malagu and her men, and then put on a stick and made into grilled fish.
Seeing the aroma of fish wafting out, the two princesses also ran back following the scent.
"It smells so good. I'm hungry."
Duan Jing wrapped the butterfly that flew towards her with gauze and handed it to Yinzhen to play with, which made Yinzhen laugh.
"This little guy, why does he only know how to laugh?"
Rong Xian pinched Xiao Si's cheek, and the little guy smiled even more happily.
Yinreng looked at Yinzhen who was playing with butterflies, and recalled his coffin-like face in his previous life, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Who would have thought that Prince Yong, with his coffin face, could be so cute and so fond of laughing.
"What are you guys talking about?"
Yinzhen and Yinzhi walked in one after another and sat down next to Yinreng.
"Tease Xiao Si." Rong Xian said.
Yinzhen also pinched Xiaosi's face. The little guy was not afraid of his elder brother at all now. He would smile at whoever pinched him.
"He Yuzhu, go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to invite the Emperor."
Soon, Kangxi and Liang Jiugong came following the smell, and the children's laughter could be heard from a distance.
He stood among the flowers and looked at the pavilion. He saw the grill and the big pot outside the pavilion and smiled and shook his head.
These kids are really... lively.
