Chapter 208: Xiaoliang’s first public cheating
The fourth elder brother stood up with a calm expression: "Eni, you know. Khan Ama is true to his words."
"Now that we have said that the merits and demerits are equal, we will not talk about it again."
"On the contrary, Prince Kang is quite curious about high-yielding crops and asked a lot of questions."
"Khan Amma did not stop him, and his son chatted with the emperor for a few more words. This wasted some time."
"How can it be a delay to talk to your uncle?" Concubine De asked people to serve tea and said with a smile, "Enie doesn't know much about the affairs of the previous dynasty. Prince Kang leads troops outside all the year round, so it's natural for him to be with your brothers. We don’t know each other.”
"It was Enie who got distracted for a moment."
"There's just one thing. The prince and his eldest brother Daozhong are exposed today, so they will definitely feel unhappy."
"Just now, the prince was still in front of the royal gate, pointing at your daughter-in-law and asking her to tell you that he will definitely get it back in the future."
"Enie still remembers that when we were young, the prince and you seemed to be in harmony..."
At that time, the fourth elder brother was still raised by the imperial concubine.
As the legitimate son, the prince often went to pay his respects and was quite impressed by the little elder brother who was raised in Chengqian Palace.
When he was a child, Yinzhen was exquisite and always had a cold face, which made people want to tease him even more.
Mentioning this period of time, Concubine De's tone felt a little weak.
The fourth elder brother's expression was also a little strange.
Lu Pheasant looked aside, feeling confused.
How come the relationship between mother and son had eased when I saw them last time.
Today, the cracks seem to be reappearing.
Is this a reconciliation or not?
Lv Zhi, who has a decisive and resolute temperament, has always been straightforward and clear-cut in his relationships with others.
It was she and Liu Bang. Later, they only had the status of husband and wife, and each could just abide by the rules.
There is no point in thinking too much, so there is no need to think too much.
I can't understand the pull between more emotions.
For a moment, the fourth elder brother looked calm: "Eni also said, that was when I was young. Now we are all... grown up."
How could he let Enie know that the prince had beaten him.
The prince's kindness to other brothers must be based on "obedience" and "respect".
"My son has always treated the prince with great respect. I think the prince is just out of temper and won't really do anything to me."
It was impossible for Concubine De not to worry: "No matter what, he is the prince after all."
The future successor of the Qing Dynasty, no matter in the past, present or future, everyone must respect and fear him.
After Kangxi's death, they had to rely on the future new emperor to survive and prevent liquidation during the replacement.
"I understand your temperament and will not take the initiative to provoke them."
"They are all princes and grandsons of the prince. I don't want to see you being wronged."
"Of course, it is almost impossible to live within this palace wall and not be wronged."
"The new rice seed is of great importance. Since it falls into my son's hands, it deserves to be like this."
"That's all, just take it one step at a time."
In the past, Concubine De would never have said such specious but heartfelt words to her eldest son.
"You and Zhiyi are both tired today, so you might as well go back and rest early."
"There will probably be more commotion outside for a while, and it will be fine once it gets out of the limelight."
Concubine De was curious about many things, but she still resisted asking.
Leave time to this young couple and let them go back and talk about what's on their mind.
Leaving Yonghe Palace and getting on the carriage.
The familiar fragrance of cold ink was burning in the car, which shocked the couple's spirits.
Just now in Yonghe Palace, Concubine De's "getting to the bottom of things" was interrupted by Si Age.
Lu Zhi was not going to be confused like this. She took the lead and asked: "Today was a near miss. Who would have thought that when Prince Kang returned to Beijing, he would just pass by Tong'an Imperial Manor. It was really a blessing from God."
The fourth elder brother looked at the curious and playful expression on Ulanara's face and said, "It's really a coincidence. Dai Yi just happened to take the new rice from our house for Mr. Dai who returned to Beijing to resume his job."
"Dai Yi was very concerned about the thank you gift Fujin used to repay the rice cakes."
"I wonder if Dai Yi has become smarter, or someone specifically told him?"
Lu Pheasant: "When I made the confession, there were people on the sidelines who did not object. Could it be that I regret having offended my brothers now?"
The fourth elder brother thought: "Fu Jin, just now you seemed to be sullen when you heard that your brothers were being punished?"
Lu Pheasant's tone became cold: "A small punishment but a big warning can't be considered a real punishment."
However, it was not her turn to speak about this matter yet. Lu Pheasant spontaneously changed the subject: "Master and Enie seem to be quite unusual recently? Do the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers know about it?"
Brother Si almost choked. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "If Fujin is really interested, how about we talk about it after we go back? The winner can ask questions, but the loser cannot refuse to answer."
He has long wanted to know the true level of his little Fujin's chess skills.
Lu Pheasant was certainly not afraid: "One game, one question?"
Fourth elder brother nodded.
Baotang Courtyard.
Chess starts.
A stick of incense was only one-third of the value. Seeing the overwhelming defeat in front of him, Fourth Brother wanted to smile generously, but he really couldn't.
Lu Pheasant's eyebrows were curved, and his black eyes were as bright as stars: "It seems that I am very lucky today."
"I guess I've wasted too much energy outside the royal gate, which makes me seem a bit invincible."
"Since we don't want to use force, why don't we just start the next game?"
It was the first time I saw him cheating openly.
Lu Pheasant thought it was rare, and he was amused in his heart, but on his face he still insisted on his principle: "Only a gentleman's agreement leads to a gentleman's chess. Could it be that you don't want to answer my last question on the carriage, right?"
The fourth elder brother personally arranged the chess pieces and handed the white square to Fujin: "If Fujin has more than one question, I still suggest how about changing the question first?"
"Or, let's pass on the food first?"
The husband and wife were anxious for each other's answer, and as soon as they returned home, they started playing chess directly.
Lu Pheasant has not yet changed out of the solemn and heavy palace clothes.
Brother Si didn't even have time to pick up the hat on his head.
The servants thought something urgent had happened, but the masters were in high spirits and eager to play chess.
That's strange.
A group of eunuchs came to the palace during the day and took away many items from the flower room in a hurry.
The servants were beaten by Eunuch Fu and Nanny Er before they continued to work with peace of mind.
When I saw the appearance of my master and Fujin just now, my heart jumped into my throat.
It wasn't until this moment that I really felt relieved.
Lu Pheasant agreed to pass on the meal. She got up and went behind the screen to change clothes. After coming out, she said: "Playing chess takes too much time. Since there is more than one problem, maybe we can find a faster method?"
Brother Si stared at his elegant and elegant wife in pink uniform in front of him. He was stunned for a moment and nodded unconsciously: "Fu Jin, do you have any suggestions?"
"The simplest one is dice, just compare the size. How about it?"
The games played in the backyard girls' club are mostly for leisure time, such as double land, pot throwing, leaf play, etc.
Brother Si was really not prepared for the simple dice proposed by his wife.
Of course he had nothing to do: "Then just follow Fujin's wishes."
In fact, the fourth elder brother ignored a problem invisibly.
"Catch bugs and fix bugs. Welcome new commentators!"
