"I'm back, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing, my ninth brother asked Grandpa if he could come over to see the baby when it's born. He said he'd prepared gifts for his nephew and niece and wanted to give them to them in person.
And my tenth brother, he knows that I always go to the military camp for training, and he wants me to speak to him on his behalf, hoping that I can take him with me next time I go."
Yinzhi looked at Yinsi strangely, with confusion in his eyes. Little Nine and Little Ten both came for something, so why did Little Eight come?
Perhaps Yinzhi's gaze was too direct, and Yinsi understood what he meant, so he raised his signature smile again.
"Brother, I don't have any requests. I came here today to accompany my ninth and tenth brothers. You don't have to worry about me."
Yinzhi didn't believe that he had no ulterior motives, but he didn't say it, and he was too lazy to ask.
"Mother said you haven't been back to Yanxi Palace much recently. If you have nothing to do, you should go back more often. Concubine Liang is not in good health. You are her son, you shouldn't be so indifferent."
The smile on Yinsi's face froze for a moment and then returned to normal in an instant. It was not that he didn't go back to see his mother, but every time he went back, he would go to the main hall to pay his respects first.
Although Concubine Hui was his adoptive mother, her attitude towards Yinzhi and him was completely different. He didn't like Concubine Hui's attitude very much, so he didn't want to go back.
Moreover, his mother once said that she was fine, and asked him to study more and interact more with outsiders. She said that everything was fine in the Yanx Palace and asked him not to worry. As a filial son, he naturally had to do as she said.
But Yinzhi had already said this. If he didn't return to the Yanx Palace, he was afraid that the outside world would spread rumors that he was unfilial. He was a man who valued his reputation very much, so how could he allow people to gossip about him!
"It's my fault. I've been so focused on studying these days that I've forgotten to care about mother. Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I don't know when I would have realized it."
Yinsi's expression was somewhat regretful, as if he was really regretful, but he said it but did nothing in practice, which made Yinzhi even more disdainful.
"It's up to you to decide. Ninth and tenth brothers, my eldest brother is going to the military camp tomorrow. Are you all going?"
Yinzhen's eyes lit up when he heard that Yinzhen was going to the military camp tomorrow. It would be much better to go there and broaden his horizons than to wander around in the palace.
Yinsi didn't expect that Yinzhi decided to take Yin'er and Yin'e with him but not him, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Brother, can I go with you?"
"If you can rest assured about Concubine Liang's health, I would naturally be willing to take you there. I'm just afraid that if you're worried about Concubine Liang, it would be a waste of time."
"My dear brother, why don't you go to the Yanxi Palace to see Concubine Liang first? When I'm free someday, I'll take you there."
Yin'er suddenly interrupted the conversation between Yinzhi and Yinsi. In his opinion, it was not just this one trip, so Myna could go back and see Concubine Liang first.
They grew up together and knew Liang Guiren's situation. Although Hui Fei was a bit strict, she was okay with mynah brother. It was not a big deal if mynah brother never returned to the Yanx Palace.
He felt that if he had a good relationship with Concubine Hui, Concubine Liang's life would be easier.
Yinsi felt a little embarrassed. It was not right to tell him that he wanted to be with him and Yin?!
The three of them always travel together. If he doesn't go this time, will others think that there is a problem between them?
Yinsi was a filial son, but today was the first time he felt resentful towards Concubine Liang. If her health was better, he would not be in such a dilemma.
But he had to maintain his reputation as a filial son, so he could only shake his head regretfully, indicating that he could not go with them this time.
"Ninth and tenth brothers, I won't be traveling with you this time. Mother is not feeling well, and it's only right that I go and see her.
"Big brother, my ninth and tenth brothers are naughty. If anything bad happens in the barracks, please don't blame them. They just like to play around."
Yinzhi almost laughed out loud. He said that when he came back just now, he thought Yinsi looked so strange. It turned out that he was such a nanny.
"You're worried about their affairs, but why don't you worry about Noble Lady Liang's affairs? Mother is your adoptive mother, so it's normal that you don't want to go back.
However, Concubine Liang is your biological mother, and you have always been a filial son in public. Why don’t you care about your biological mother now, but instead care about your ninth and tenth brothers?
Could it be that in your eyes, the ninth and tenth brothers are more important than Noble Lady Liang? If that is the case, I will report it to the Emperor."
"No, big brother, you misunderstood. I am just used to worrying about my ninth and tenth brothers. It doesn't mean that I value them more than mother.
You know, my ninth and tenth brothers often do things that people don't like, and I always have to clean up after them, which is how they developed this character.
Big brother, if you have nothing to do, I will go back to see mother first. When you are free someday, I will follow you to broaden your horizons.
Ninth and Tenth Brothers, Eighth Brother is not around this time, so you should think more before you speak or act, and don't irritate those soldiers. Eighth Brother is not here, so we can't clean up for you."
After saying this, Yinsi ran away without giving Yin'er and Yin'e a chance to react. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, Yin'e would say something that would make him even more embarrassed.
"Nine Brother, what do you think Eighth Brother meant by what he said just now? Why do I feel that it wasn't a good thing?"
Yinsi frowned and thought, always feeling that Yinsi was mocking him and Yin'er, but he had no evidence.
Yinzhen felt the same way. What did it mean that he and his tenth brother often did things that were unpleasant to others? When had they ever done such things?
"I don't know. We used to act together. If it really is annoying, wouldn't all three of us be annoying?"
"Forget it. I don't care about what he thinks. I only care about whether I can go to the military camp with my brother tomorrow."
Yinzhen looked at Yinyang with disdain. His mother was right. He had to keep an eye on him. With his stupid behavior, if he was sold, he might have to count the money with others.
"Ninth brother, tenth brother, please stay for dinner. My sister-in-law has had the dishes you like prepared. Please enjoy them today before leaving."
Mu Sili interrupted their conversation. Upon hearing that they could stay for dinner, they both decided to put aside their speculations about Yinsi for the time being and eat their fill before continuing.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, for the hospitality."
"Isn't my master worthy of your thanks? If so, cancel tomorrow's trip."
"Thank you for the hospitality, brother. When do we leave tomorrow? Will the brothers come and call you directly?"
"I will send someone to pick you up after I leave the court, but you have to tell Gui'e Niang and Yi'e Niang. I can only take you out of the palace if they agree."
"Don't worry, big brother. I know everything."
"Master, take my ninth and tenth brothers out of the palace to play for a while tomorrow. It's a rare opportunity for us to go out of the palace, so we must make sure they have a good time before coming back."
