The prince felt a headache from hearing this.
This is the palace!
Eunuchs, maids, and coatmen, how many pairs of eyes are watching!
He rubbed his brows and said, "Why did the second elder brother ask someone to kill the eldest elder brother's dog?"
The second elder brother has been smart since he was a child. Although he is three years younger than the eldest elder brother, he is already at an age where he can talk sense.
The brothers get along well with each other on weekdays. Although the second elder brother is the younger brother, he knows how to respect his elder brother and does not argue with the eldest elder brother.
The chief eunuch lowered his chin and said: "On the day of Laba, the eldest brother asked someone to bring Laba porridge from the upper study room and fed it to the general. The second brother came over and said that the general was naughty and spilled the eldest brother's porridge bowl. , told to be strangled to death..."
The prince's face was livid, he slapped the table and said, "You bastard!"
Of course, this is not the second elder brother, but the eldest elder brother who acted recklessly.
He stood up and strode out of Yuqing Palace and went to Xiefang Palace.
Yuqing Palace is narrow, with only so much space in front and back.
In a moment, someone reported to the Crown Princess.
Auntie said with concern, "Does your Majesty really don't care about that?"
The Crown Princess smiled bitterly and said: "How can I care? Why go through all the trouble? For a mother like that, the second elder brother is smart, but it's a pity..."
Being implicated by the elder brother, the second elder brother also registered in front of the emperor.
The third elder brother has returned to Yuqing Palace and is now being educated by the Crown Princess.
In the future, the third elder brother will definitely be ranked ahead of the second elder brother in terms of the future of these royal grandchildren.
It's just that the third elder brother is already four years old, and he is a child with ordinary qualifications. He is much worse than the fifteenth elder brother, let alone compared with the second elder brother.
Although the second elder brother did not get permission to go to the study, he still followed the Eastern Palace staff for enlightenment. I heard that he had already completed three hundred thousand...
At this time, the prince had arrived at Xiefang Hall and came to Li Gege.
Li Gege got the news and knew that the prince would return to the palace in the morning, so he dressed up early and was waiting.
Seeing the prince coming, she greeted him warmly.
"Master, you are back..."
Her voice was filled with honey, and she leaned against the prince as she spoke.
The prince felt irritated, stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "Speak carefully!"
They are enchanting and do not know how to be dignified.
In a few years, Aktun will be an adult, and she will also be a mother-in-law. She still thinks about these things about competing for favor and flattery all day long.
Li Gege noticed that his face was ugly and said with aggrievedness: "It's true, my servant didn't recruit you. Who recruits you? Who will go if you get angry?"
She knew that the prince had returned to Yuqing Palace before, so she thought that there was some unhappiness between him and the prince.
The prince's expression was very ugly. He looked at her and said, "The second elder brother made a mistake. He has to be disciplined by the prince. Is it your turn to have an attack?"
Li Gege was stunned and said, "That's the slave's son. Is the slave still unable to discipline him?"
"presumptuous!"
The prince slapped the table and said, "That's the son of Gu and Crown Princess!"
Li Gege turned pale, looked at the prince, and said with red eyes: "What do you mean, master? What do you mean, empress? Is it not enough to raise the third elder brother, but you also need to rob the second elder brother?"
The prince's eyes narrowed, and he was very moved.
Aktun has been destroyed.
Even if the imperial concubine is not registered, it is intolerable to be so stupid at the age of nine.
I didn't notice anything when I didn't go to the study room earlier, and the rules were pretty good on weekdays. However, in the past year since I went to the study room, I've made several mistakes.
Even if the prince is protective of his son, he cannot say that Aktun acted appropriately.
Three years old makes you look older. Aktun is already nine years old. He was completely distorted by the influence of his biological mother.
The prince glared at Li Gege and said, "You have taught me such a good child! Starting today, the second elder brother will move to Yuqing Palace and educate me by himself!"
Li Gege wanted to stop him, but hesitated when he heard this, but still said: "Master, why don't you treat one with favoritism? Akdun should be sad. I have been thinking about you these past few days..."
The prince said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense. How can I have so much time to take care of my children? Isn't there a teacher who goes to the study to teach me?"
Li Gege said: "Then why don't you take Akedun away? The second elder brother is still young, so he has to be looked after by this slave..."
The prince said with a dark face: "I have not discussed this with you. If you really love my second elder brother, stay away from him in the future."
Li Gege burst into tears and said, "Is it because the queen is not allowed? The queen still wants to raise my second elder brother..."
The prince looked at Li Gege and said: "Where is your private room? Since the birth of Akedun, your monthly salary has been subsidized by your father. You have also collected the monthly salary of Akedun and the second elder brother. After so many years, it should not be Less money..."
Li Gege's eyes flickered and he did not dare to look directly into the prince's eyes. He touched his temples and said, "My brother used money and lent it to them."
The prince's eyes were filled with waves, and he said, "Didn't you give it to Grandma He?"
Aunt He, the prince's wet nurse, was executed along with her husband and children in the first month of the year.
Li Gege trembled, and said with a forced smile on his face: "Then... maybe the slave has forgotten it, and grandma also borrowed it from the slave once..."
"At the beginning of last winter, the Crown Princess 'borrowed' it after she was diagnosed with pregnancy..." The Crown Prince's voice was cold.
Of course he knew the importance of his legitimate son, and he also knew how much the emperor's father longed for his legitimate grandson.
If that child is born, he will be about the same age as the eighteenth elder brother, already half a year old.
It is true that the emperor's father was too mean to Aktun and showed his undisguised disgust, even bringing his second elder brother together.
At that time, the prince thought that the second elder brother had been implicated by Aktun, and thought that the emperor's father's anger was inexplicable.
Also, as for Li Gege, I had praised Li Gege before as "mother is more valuable than son", but he was not the only one who favored Li Gege, nor did he spoil his concubines and destroy his wives. Why was it so intolerable to the emperor's father?
Before, the prince had not thought of anywhere else.
But when the emperor's father asked the princess to educate the third elder brother, he noticed something was wrong.
Akdun's unruliness is different.
As the eldest son of the concubine of Yuqing Palace, Akedun was very well-behaved when he was a child, and he was not a child who was naturally arrogant.
He is old enough to understand the difference between direct descendants and concubines.
There is also the arrogance of the Li family, which is completely unreasonable.
The Guarjia family is the serious family of the prince's in-laws, and they are cautious in their words and deeds.
The prince is not a fool. When he senses something is wrong, he can find out the possible reason by just checking it.
He also understood why the emperor's father was so mean to Li Gege.
Li Gege is a sinner!
For the sake of the two grandsons, she was not punished, but she was not allowed to ascend to a high position again.
The second elder brother was not implicated by Akdun, but by Li Gege.
"Khan Amma knows!"
The prince's voice was cold.
He also understood why Khan Ama would directly execute Nanny He and Ling Pu without him.
These two men committed a taboo by interfering with the royal heirs.
If he uncovers it and disposes of it, he will have to bear the reputation of "not knowing people well" and "loving concubines and destroying wives".
The nobles of the Eight Banners are related to each other, and the Guarjia family is a rich family. If the incident is revealed, he, the prince, will be disgraced.
The imperial father loved and protected his son, so he directly used other excuses to execute those two people.
Li Gege's body went limp, with a hint of fear on his face.
The prince glanced at her and said: "If you really love the second elder brother, just pretend that you don't have this son and stop interfering in his affairs..."
Li Gege still wanted to speak, but the prince frowned and said: "Khan Ama didn't attack you, it was to save my dignity. Do you really want to go to the Criminal Justice Department? That Aunt Liu and Aunt He from the Second Institute What will be the outcome? Execution, no citizenship..."
Li Gege's teeth were trembling and he was speechless.
The prince strode out and went to the side hall where the second elder brother lived.
The small figure was sitting upright behind the desk, copying books.
Looking at it like that, I was very distracted.
The prince stopped the eunuch who was about to greet him and walked forward gently. When he saw the copied content, he couldn't help but frown.
"The Classic of Filial Piety"...
Li's bastard, he doesn't know the importance.
When word spreads outside, what will others think of Second Elder Brother?
I thought he had done something unfilial to be punished like this.
Maybe his breathing became deeper, and the second elder brother noticed it. He raised his head and saw him coming, with joy on his face. Then he put down his pen and said in a close yet respectful manner: "Ama..."
The prince pointed at the "Book of Filial Piety" and said, "Have you recognized all the words?"
The second elder brother's face turned red and he said, "I only know 80% of them..."
The prince nodded and said: "It's not bad. When I was your age, I didn't admit it..."
The second elder brother's face showed joy.
There are no children who don’t like to be praised.
The prince asked: "Why did you ask people to kill Akedun's dog?"
The second elder brother's smile froze and he whispered: "The dog ate the elder brother's porridge..."
The prince felt much relieved after hearing this.
Really smart.
Can understand what is inappropriate and provide appropriate solutions.
He is only six years old, and he is more thoughtful than Aktun.
The prince misunderstood.
He thought it was Laba porridge from the dining room of Qianqing Palace.
In that case, it is a royal gift.
The second elder brother's solution was the most appropriate way, turning Akedun's "disrespect" into a vicious dog snatching food.
It was not until after class in the study that the prince asked someone to send Akedun over to scold him, and then he realized that it was not the "Laba porridge" from Qianqing Palace, but the "Laba porridge" brought into the palace by Brother Jiu.
Aktun also said angrily: "I have already told my second brother, but my second brother is still asking someone to strangle the general. How unreasonable is it?"
】
The prince's face became more and more ugly, and he said: "The emperor drank the porridge of the ninth elder brother, the Queen Mother drank it, and the other elder brothers who went to the study also drank it. Why can't you drink it?"
To Akdun, the emperor is his superior, and the ninth elder brother is also his superior.
The prince looked at Akedun and felt strangely tight.
How could a concubine and grandson of Yuqing Palace dare to look down on the prince so carelessly?
When I beat Brother Fifteen before, I could say it was a child getting angry, and I didn’t know the seriousness of it; this time Brother Ninth brought porridge in, and he still wanted to make a fuss.
As a prince, he did not say that he dared to slight Prince Yu and Prince Gong.
There is order between elders and younger ones, and there are distinctions between seniority and inferiority.
Akedun could see that he was unhappy and felt guilty, so he defended himself: "My son is afraid that he will hold a grudge and ask others to manipulate him, so he doesn't dare to eat..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a "pop" sound, and the prince's big-eared melon seeds had already fallen down.
Akedun was short of stature and was suddenly thrown away and fell to the ground...
