Although Yinzhen didn't know why his fifth brother, who always despised his fourth brother's behavior, said this, he knew that his fifth brother was doing it for his own good, and immediately nodded to show that he understood.
The prince had heard the noises from the outside world a long time ago, but because he was the prince and was proud of his noble status, he ignored them. In his opinion, someone was always telling him what was happening.
However, after Yinqi brought Yin'er in, he did not mention what happened with Yinzhen just now. Instead, he mentioned to him that they were going hunting, which made him feel itchy.
Seeing that Yinqi was still talking about hunting, he couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.
"I thought I heard someone of yours talking just now, but why didn't I see him come in with you?"
Yinqi laughed in his heart. He knew that the prince was impatient. As long as he didn't say it, he would definitely ask about it. Look, he has the prince in his grasp.
"Just now? Second brother, are you talking about fourth brother? Just now, when my younger and ninth brothers came over, we ran into fourth brother. He looked like he had just come out of the Empress Dowager's tent.
He didn't say anything, just said hello. My younger brother thought he was here to see you too, but when he asked, he realized it wasn't him, so my younger brother and ninth brother came in on their own."
Perhaps there is a suspicious gene in the genes of the Aisin Gioro family. After hearing what Yinqi said, the prince subconsciously thought that Yinzhen was trying to assassinate him.
He just ran into Yinqi and Yinlu, so he said goodbye and left. Otherwise, why would people he had rarely seen before come to see him for no reason?
And the most important thing is that he came here just after coming out of the Empress Dowager's tent. He must have been wronged by the Empress Dowager and wanted to find a place to vent.
Fortunately, his fifth and ninth brothers came to see him, otherwise it would be hard to say what the situation would be like now. Thinking of this, the prince's attitude towards Yinqi and Yin'er was extremely good.
Yinzhen was confused. He looked at the prince and then at his fifth brother. He really didn't understand what was going on in the prince's mind. In just a short while, his attitude changed drastically and he became extremely enthusiastic towards them.
"The hunt will officially begin tomorrow. I still want to hunt head deer, but my elder brother is a bit better than me in horseback archery. I don't know if I can beat him."
The prince was a little sad. He and Yinzhi had been competing with each other. Even though he was the prince, he had to admit that Yinzhi was better than him in some aspects.
Even though he was known as a man of both civil and military talents, he would definitely lose in a duel with Yinzhi. He really had no confidence that he could defeat Yinzhi.
"Is the second brother afraid that he won't be able to hunt the deer and will be laughed at by the eldest brother?"
Yin'er suddenly blurted out this sentence, which made the prince so embarrassed that he kept digging his toes into the ground. "Ninth brother, what a fool! How could he say it so bluntly? Even if he is the prince, he would feel embarrassed."
"Ninth brother, don't talk nonsense. Why would I be afraid of being laughed at by my elder brother? If I can't hunt something, then my elder brother certainly can't hunt it either."
Yinzhen wanted to say something, but was pulled by Yinqi and quickly changed the subject.
"Then I wish my second brother all the best. He will definitely win over the eldest brother."
"Second brother, we are all brothers. There is no need for you to compete with your eldest brother. The emperor likes his sons to be friendly and respectful to each other. If you act like this, I'm afraid the emperor will be unhappy."
Yinqi was kind-hearted and wanted to give the prince some advice, but the prince felt that Yinqi was speaking for Yinzhi and felt a little uncomfortable.
He is the legitimate son, the illegitimate son appointed by Kangxi himself. When he ascends the throne to become emperor one day, even if he is the eldest brother, he is still his subject. As an emperor, why should he be friendly and respectful to his subjects?
Besides, since he had become the emperor, his father Kangxi must have passed away. Who would dare to say anything bad about him?
However, he knew that Yinqi was doing this for his own good, but he just felt uncomfortable. He hoped that Yinqi could speak to him like a subject. Even though they were brothers, he was the king after all.
"I know what you mean. I think Concubine Yi has already gone back. I heard that Concubine Yi is pregnant with her third child. I don't know if it's a prince or a princess.
I love my younger sister very much. If Concubine Yi can give birth to three princesses, I will definitely prepare generous gifts for them.
Of course, if it's my younger brother, it doesn't matter. It would be great if he could fight for me in the future. Don't worry, I will be a wise ruler and will never treat you unfairly."
When Yinqi heard that he hoped his mother would give birth to princesses, he was unhappy. Wasn't he afraid that his mother would give birth to a few more sons and threaten his position?
It's a pity. If he continues like this, it's another matter whether he can keep his position as crown prince.
"Mother also hoped to give birth to a princess. Unfortunately, the imperial physician said that this baby would most likely be a younger brother. Second brother, you don't know that I don't want any more younger brothers at all.
Being followed by Yin and Yin all day long makes my younger brother very sad. If my younger sister followed me like this, my younger brother would be so happy that he would be smiling from ear to ear.
Although Yinzhen was young and didn't understand many things, he could hear the fear in the prince's words. He didn't like people who were hypocritical, so he directly confirmed that Mu Sili was giving birth to three princes.
Sure enough, after hearing his words, the prince's face stiffened noticeably, and Yinqi even saw him shake hands.
He lowered his head slightly, feeling nervous.
"Ninth brother, the imperial physician also said that it is very likely. We should still hold on to the wish of having a younger sister. What if it comes true?
But you are right, it is not good to have too many younger brothers, it is impossible to manage them all. Now it is very difficult for the fifth brother to take care of you, Xiao Shi and Xiao Shiyi.
If there are two more, I'm afraid that Fifth Brother will really become the only short brother among all the brothers."
"Fifth brother is right. I really hope that mother can give birth to a few younger sisters. I will work hard to earn money for them and let them become the most beautiful princesses in the palace."
When the prince heard them all saying in unison that they hoped Mu Sili would give birth to a princess, he was so angry that he almost jumped up and revealed his true face.
"So my fifth and ninth brothers like me as much as I do. That's such a coincidence."
After talking for a while in the prince's tent, the two went back to Mu Sili.
"Fifth brother, I feel that the Crown Prince and the Second Brother are not sincere and cannot believe everything they say."
"Fifth Brother certainly knows, but he is the Crown Prince. Even if we have a good relationship, we cannot tell him the truth completely. It is always useful to keep some things in reserve."
Yinzhen frowned, not understanding!
"Mother, I've brought my ninth brother back. How are you today?"
"I'm fine. Have you gone to the prince's place?"
"Well, mother, my second brother already knows that you are pregnant with a prince. I am worried that the Hesheli family will do something to your belly."
"It's okay. Mother is surrounded by people arranged by not only the Emperor but also the Empress Dowager. It's impossible for the Crown Prince to touch Mother.
So you don't have to worry, my mother is safe. But you, Xiaowu, I'm afraid the crown prince will be suspicious of you."
