After playing with the Emperor for a long time last night, Yinzuo fell asleep without knowing when.
Early in the morning, he was still sleeping when suddenly a weight fell on his chest, almost crushing him to death.
He gritted his teeth in pain, took a deep breath, and suddenly opened his eyes.
"elder brother!"
He saw a little girl with a round face and a pair of cute little pigtails lying on his chest, looking at him with a bright smile.
"Qionghua! Why are you here so early?" If it weren't for the uncomfortable pressure on his chest, Yinzuo would have almost thought he was dreaming. After all, it was really early now.
The story began last night. Yinzuo was the last one to evacuate from the West Three Houses. Because Qionghua was always thinking about her dear brother, the Queen Mother also ordered people to keep an eye on the situation over there.
The little girl Qionghua was smart. As soon as she saw the young eunuch guarding the West Third Building entering the Ciren Palace, she ran to the main hall to sit next to her mama and listen together.
So she was one of the first to learn that her brother had come out of the West Third Institute, and she immediately became excited and made a fuss about going to Chengqian Palace to see her dear brother.
But it was neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the month, and the emperor went to Chengqian Palace in person, which showed that he wanted to accompany Yinzuo in person. How could the empress dowager let her go at this time? Wouldn't this make the emperor unhappy?
So I could only coax her and tell her I would send her there next time.
Qionghua is unlike Yinzhen in every other aspect except for one thing: she is very decisive and stubborn.
She woke up early in the morning, before daybreak. She climbed out of bed and called the maid who was serving her to help her wash and dress herself.
Qionghua felt that in order to meet her dear brother, she had to wear the most exquisite and beautiful headpiece and clothes, so it took her more than half an hour just to dress herself up. But even so, when she arrived at Chengqian Palace, the sun was just about to rise.
"Kiss!" Qionghua lowered her little head and sucked hard at her brother.
Yinzuo could only lie down with a smile on his face, his face covered with saliva. He hugged his sister and patted her back gently.
Sure enough, after a while, the little girl closed her eyes and began to snore.
As the ancients said: "Boys and girls should not sit on the same seat after the age of seven." Yinzuo is only six years old now, so there is no need to be too taboo. He gave half of his bed to his sister and closed his eyes again to take a nap.
Before the Imperial Concubine had breakfast, she came over to take a look in person. Just now, the maid came to report that Qionghua had come to see Yinzuo early in the morning. She was still laughing about it. Seeing that the lovely brother and sister were both asleep, she tucked in the corners of the quilt for them, told the servants not to disturb them, and left.
Who knew that after a while, little guests came to visit Chengqian Palace one after another.
The Imperial Concubine was inspecting the small kitchen while preparing snacks for Yinzuo when a palace maid suddenly came to report.
"My queen, the Ninth Prince is here."
"Ninth Prince? What is he doing here?" Concubine Yi didn't have much of a relationship with her.
"Please let him in." It's not good to keep a child out of the door.
"Yinzhen pays his respects to the Imperial Noble Consort."
Concubine Yi was beautiful, and the son she gave birth to was also of good appearance. Although not as good-looking as Yinzuo, he was also a first-class good-looking boy.
"It's Yinzhen, get up quickly, but did your mother ask you to come?" I don't usually see this kid hanging around Chengqian Palace.
Yinzhen kept looking towards the yard, he could hardly sit still, it was obvious that his mind was not here.
He said, "I came here to play photo shooting with Sixth Brother! Where is Sixth Brother?"
It turned out that it was for Yinzuo. The Imperial Noble Consort didn't know what it was, but she thought it was some new trick invented by Yinzuo.
"Your sixth brother has just recovered from a serious illness and has not yet gotten up."
If it were someone else, they would naturally resign tactfully, but Yinzhen has never been such a tactful person since he was a child.
Yinzhen stood up quickly and said impatiently, "Why don't you ask the Imperial Noble Consort to let me take you to Sixth Brother's room to have a look?"
The Imperial Concubine couldn't refuse him either. She thought that he was indeed Concubine Yi's biological son, and the character of the mother and son were exactly the same, willful and domineering. So she had to let the maid beside her take him there.
Unexpectedly, less than half an hour later, the eunuch guarding the palace gate came to report again.
"Your Majesty! The Tenth Prince has arrived at the gate of our palace. He said he came to play with the Sixth Prince."
The Imperial Concubine raised her eyebrows and said softly, "What a rare guest! Didn't the Imperial Concubine follow you?"
Everyone in the palace knew that Niuhulu protected her son as if he were the apple of her eye, fearing that someone would harm him. Every time she came to pay her respects, she deliberately did not bring her son with her, as if Chengqian Palace was some kind of dangerous place.
"The imperial concubine didn't see it, but there were four or five people following the tenth prince."
"Forget it, since you are here to see the Sixth Prince, you can just take him to his room. There is no need for him to come to see me."
The Imperial Noble Consort and Nianhulu did not get along well. If there was anyone who could compete with her for the throne, it would be Nianhulu. Nianhulu was from one of the most noble families in Manchuria, and now she had a son. She was becoming less and less respectful to her, the Imperial Noble Consort, and naturally she didn't bother to treat Nianhulu's son well.
“Yeah.”
Yin'e was carried inside by his personal servant. As soon as he stepped over the threshold of Yinzuo's room, he saw a familiar figure talking and laughing with his sixth brother.
"Ninth brother? Why is he here with sixth brother?"
After he finished speaking, he urged the servant who was holding him, "Put me down quickly!"
After he landed, he ran to his brothers.
"Sixth Brother!"
"Xiao Shi! Why are you here too?" Yinzuo turned around and looked at him in surprise.
Yin'e could see clearly then. He saw that Sixth Brother's left hand was held by his sister Qionghua, and his right hand was held by Ninth Brother. The three of them were looking at the fish in the fish tank. There was no place for him next to Sixth Brother. Yin'e curled his lips and had to settle for the next best thing, standing opposite Sixth Brother.
"If both of them can come, why can't I come?" Yin'e felt a little unhappy.
"Sixth brother, that's not what I meant. I thought you and Yin'er would come together. After all, you two are best friends, right? You're here to play with the cards too, right? I'll ask Shunshui to get the cards out and we'll play together." Yin'er quickly stroked him.
Yin'e then smiled and said excitedly, "Okay!"
Qionghua was a little girl and had never played this before. Besides, taking pictures required strength. After trying it for a while, she said she didn't like it, so Yinzuo could only find some other toys for her and let her watch from the side.
Qionghua nodded in agreement. She didn't like lying on the ground. After all, she had specially put on her favorite clothes to see her dear brother. It would be a shame if they got dirty.
The three little boys divided the pictures equally and began to compete happily.
The Imperial Concubine could hear the three of them shouting just from outside.
"What's going on? You're shouting so loudly, I hope they're fighting!" The imperial concubine was worried that Yinzuo would suffer a loss, so she took her people in under the pretext of delivering snacks.
The three little boys were seen arm in arm, their minds all focused on the small piece of paper on the ground. They seemed to be getting along quite harmoniously. The imperial concubine breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yinzuo, the kitchen has just made some snacks. Do you want to bring your brothers and sisters to eat some?"
Yinzuo responded without even turning his head: "Okay~ Thank you, Royal Mother, we'll eat later!"
The Imperial Concubine smiled and shook her head. It was rare to see him having so much fun, so she didn't go over to interrupt them. She put the snacks down and left.
The three of them were very excited, but Qionghua on the side couldn't stand it anymore.
She slid down from the couch, holding a nine-ring chain, ran to her brother, and pulled his clothes to get his attention.
"Brother! I don't know how to play this, please help Qionghua~"
Yinzuo turned around, patiently took the nine-ring chain from his sister's hand, and helped her untie one step.
"Okay, Qionghua, be good and go sit on the couch and untie yourself slowly." Yinzuo rubbed his sister's head and brushed away the hair that was covering her eyes.
"Sixth brother! It's your turn, hurry up!" Yin'e urged.
"You are so good, Yin'e! You actually teamed up with Sixth Brother to deal with me!" Yin'er's face turned red with anger.
Yinzuo quickly turned back to separate the two of them and explained something at the same time.
"No, I didn't team up with Xiao Shi, but the one you just used was easier to uncover."
As they were talking, the game had already moved on to the next person.
"Okay, it's your turn, Xiaojiu!"
Only then did Yinzhen give up and seriously devote himself to their game.
Qionghua, who was ignored again, looked at her two annoying younger brothers angrily. It was because of them that her brother couldn't play with her!
After a while, Qionghua ran behind her brother again, tugging at his clothes and acting coquettishly.
"Brother, Qionghua is hungry~"
Yinzuo immediately stopped, turned around and picked her up.
"Qionghua, are you hungry? Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi, why don't we eat something first? The royal mother just sent some freshly made snacks. They are delicious. You can all try them. Let's take a break before continuing."
They had been playing for the entire morning and had indeed consumed a lot of energy. Although Yin'er and Yin'e were a little unhappy because the game was interrupted, since Sixth Brother had said so, they did not object.
But he was still harsh in his words.
"Little girls are trouble!" Yinzhen complained in a low voice.
Qionghua's ears immediately stood up, and her fiery eyes stared at him.
"You two are the trouble! You're fighting with Qionghua for your brother! You two annoying bastards!"
Qionghua had been spoiled by her elders since she was a child, and she was not someone who would willingly endure being bullied, so she immediately pointed at the two of them and started shouting angrily.
"You actually said I'm a nuisance?" Yin'e, who was innocently implicated, was also angry.
"You are so stupid that I didn't even tell you that you can't even solve the first ring of the Nine Rings! And you still need Sixth Brother to help you, you big idiot!"
Qionghua, who had always been treated as a little princess and a darling, was suddenly so angry that she started crying.
"Wow! My brothers are bullying me!"
Yinzuo wanted to interrupt several times but was unable to do so. Now that his sister was crying, he felt extremely distressed and hurried to comfort her.
"Qionghua, be good, stop crying. Let's have some snacks. After that, I'll play with you, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Yin'er and Yin'e became angry.
"Sixth brother! You just said you wanted to continue playing with us!"
"Yes, Sixth Brother, our game isn't over yet!"
Qionghua's crying suddenly became louder, completely drowning out the voices of her two naughty brothers.
"Wow! Brother doesn't love Qionghua anymore! Qionghua is so sad!"
Yinzuo's attention was completely taken away by his crying sister. He hugged Qionghua to comfort her and said, "No, no, brother loves Qionghua the most. I will play with Qionghua after eating snacks!"
"Sixth brother agreed to play with us!"
"that is!"
When Qionghua heard them say this, she continued to cry and said, "Wow! My brother doesn't love me anymore!"
Yinzuo had a headache. He said helplessly, "Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi, why don't we play it another day? I'll give you the picture cards. You two can play with them."
A moment later, Yin'er and Yin'e, who were standing outside Chengqian Palace, looked at the newly acquired pictures in their hands, but they did not feel as happy as they had imagined.
"It seems that the sixth brother likes his sister very much. When she cries, the sixth brother doesn't care about playing with us."
"How about we not talk about her next time?"
"…I think so too. Then shall we still play?"
"No, let's come and play with Sixth Brother next time." There's no point in playing alone.
Qionghua, who had called off the battle, was enjoying her brother's special love and care. She whispered to herself, "Brother belongs to Qionghua! I won't accompany you! Humph!"
The author has something to say:
Qionghua vs Yin'e Yin'e: Qionghua wins! (The crying child gets the milk~)
Yin'e and Yin'e went to find reinforcements.
