Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother

Although the commotion in the main courtyard was loud, it did not reach the ears of outsiders. Others only heard that Fu Jin felt a little uncomfortable, but as for other things, they knew nothing.

Yixiu understood her elder sister's thoughts very well, and she knew at a glance that her elder sister must be very angry. However, the fence of the main courtyard has been tightly guarded in the past two years, and any news would not be easily leaked.

But how could she take to heart what her elder sister was thinking?

Yixiu just smiled and let it go as a joke, then called Qi over and entrusted a few more government affairs to her.

Qi didn't expect to have an unexpected surprise. She was so excited and grateful that she almost spoke incoherently, "Thank you for your kindness, Concubine. I will do my best to help you take care of the affairs of the palace..."

"Sister Qi is wrong. You are not helping me with the affairs of the palace. You are doing this for Lord Beile. Lord Beile entrusted the affairs of the palace to you and me out of trust. We must not let you down!"

Qi raised her head and her eyes met Yixiu's, and they smiled at each other.

"Yes, yes, Concubine is right. Look at my memory. I actually forgot such an important thing."

When she returned, she whispered to Jixiang, "Concubine is so lucky. First she gave birth to the eldest prince, and now she is pregnant with another baby. If this baby is another prince, Concubine will be the only one in the mansion in the future! I don't have this blessing. There has been no movement in my stomach for so many years. Alas~"

"Master, you have a princess, and she is your biological child." Blood relationship is nothing. The princess's biological mother as recorded in the imperial edict is the master. Everyone she goes to will praise her for giving birth to a son!

Qi laughed out loud immediately: "You are right, isn't Ha Yihu my biological child? Jixiang, am I getting old? My memory is getting worse..."

"You are only in your twenties, how can you be considered old? In my opinion, you have been so busy with government affairs that you have no time to care about other things."

"Hahaha, go back quickly, Ha Yihu is still waiting for me to teach her to read!"

……

Not a single commotion from the Fourth Prince's Mansion reached Honghui's ears!

The Shangshufang and the prince's residence were far away in the Forbidden City, and were naturally isolated from the flow of a lot of information. But if he heard about something, it meant that if it wasn't known to everyone, it would at least be widely known in the palace, and at least the powerful people in the capital would have heard about it.

Just like the previous incident with the picture album, his classmates in the study room had mentioned it several times. Honghui just smiled and said nothing every time, watching those powerful and wealthy children either praising or criticizing his picture albums.

What could he say? He couldn't say anything, nor could he do anything. Although he hadn't been exposed yet, it was only a matter of time. Any action at this time would lay hidden dangers for the future!

Honghui was so cautious out of caution, but he knew that a picture album was actually nothing big. People tend to forget things, and it would just be a matter of a few comments, which would not cause too much trouble.

Then, in mid-September, the details of the album were completely revealed.

At noon that day, the morning class had just ended, and the students in the enlightenment class went downstairs in groups of two or three to have breakfast.

As soon as Honghui stood up, he was stopped in the house.

Hong Shu stammered, "Honghui, you, this...did you paint this album?" As he spoke, a dozen people in the room looked over.

Did it get out so quickly? Honghui glanced at his study partners without leaving a trace. Some of them looked confused, some were surprised, and some were proud.

Who else could that proud and self-satisfied man be but his cousin? He would have to scold him later. It was not good to show such emotions.

What should I do if I attract jealousy and dissatisfaction?

Honghui glanced at him and gave him a meaningful look, then blushed and said a little embarrassedly: "How did my cousin know about the picture album? I drew it for fun in my spare time. Because my third brother and sisters were just getting started, I chose the Three Character Classic to draw. But the painting in that picture album is extremely poor and not worthy of being displayed in a formal setting. My cousin, please don't talk about the picture album. I really regret not being able to resist Uncle Jiu's advice..."

Since Honghui had helped him several times before, Hongshu hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Don't say such discouraging words. My fourth brother likes your album very much and says that the paintings are very interesting. I have also read it from beginning to end. No wonder so many people like it! Honghui, your painting skills are not that good due to your age. If it were me, I would not be able to paint even if I wanted to."

The corners of Honghui's mouth slightly lifted up, and he smiled shyly, "My cousin, you are too kind. I like reading and painting, just like other people. But you know Uncle Jiu, his business skills are impeccable. If someone else did the painting again, I think Uncle Jiu would have made a fortune now! Uncle Jiu is really... Oh!"

He did not say the rest. Silence is better than words at this moment. Everything is implied, and let others imagine it!

Sure enough, after hearing this, Hongshu started to imagine it on his own. He thought that it was pure luck that Honghui's album sold more than a thousand copies. If he hadn't been fortunate enough to be valued by Uncle Jiu, how could he have achieved his current success?

Coincidentally, everyone present thought so, because the Ninth Prince really did all kinds of cool things when selling the album. It can be said that the popularity of the album was inseparable from his methods. Prince Honghui just happened to be lucky.

Then, everyone dispersed and stopped pestering Honghui to ask about the details of the album.

Honghui watched his classmates who were surrounding him disperse, and finally only four study companions were left. He felt very satisfied!

It was worth it that he had once given a few pointers to Uncle Jiu. Until today, people only praised Uncle Jiu's business skills, while he was able to hide in the shadows and was perfectly hidden behind the scenes.

However, who was responsible for this move today? He didn't hear any rumors when he returned home the day before yesterday. How come it reached the ears of the emperor's grandson who went out early and came back late to study in the palace in just two days?

Honghui was sure that there must be something fishy going on!
