"Miss Wu Ya, congratulations." Liang Jiugong smiled and congratulated.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Mayanzhu wanted to ask why the emperor suddenly ordered a marriage, but she blushed and felt embarrassed.

"Thank you, Eunuch Liang, for a trip." Yuan He stuffed a piece of silver into Liang Jiugong's arms. She has been with Ma Guan for so long, so she naturally understands these rules.

"Hey, what are you being so polite for?" Liang Jiugong said modestly, but still accepted the money: "This is all thanks to the Empress Degui. The Empress approved of this marriage very much, so the emperor issued an imperial edict on the spot. By the way, Niu Gulu's bodyguard is also in Yongshou Palace."

Everyone suddenly realized that it was the Empress Concubine Degui who told the story.

When Mayanzhu heard that Ling'a was also in Yongshou Palace, her heart beat faster. So, that brat also knew that the emperor ordered a marriage?

After Liang Jiugong left, Mayanzhu returned to the house holding the imperial decree like a treasure, looking left and right, not knowing where to put it.

Fujin jokingly said: "Look at your worthless appearance, you used to talk like a brat before, calling him a nuisance..."

"Er Niang..." Mayan Zhu held Fujin's arm awkwardly, her little face turned red into an apple.

Fujin covered his mouth and smiled lightly, and said: "My daughter is getting older, so I know she's shy. After leaving the palace this time, Niu Yulu's family may come to propose marriage."

"Hmph, I won't tell you anymore." Mayanzhu stomped her feet and hid in the room with the imperial decree in her arms.

……

Let's talk about Yongshou Palace, not long after Liang Jiugong left, he heard a baby crying from the delivery room, and Concubine Niu finally gave birth.

Compared with the former imperial concubine, Niu Concubine is much luckier. Not only did she give birth at full term, but the process went smoothly.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Empress Niu gave birth to an elder brother, mother and child are healthy!" Wen Po quickly came out to announce the good news, holding the cleaned little elder brother, but the little elder brother seemed not energetic.

"Okay, Concubine Niu has worked hard." Kangxi looked at the child and couldn't help smiling.

"Your Majesty, can I give you a hug?" Aling'ah was in high spirits. Although she didn't like this elder sister very much, she was his nephew after all, and she looked quite cute.

"Then you have to be careful, even I don't dare to hold such a small child lightly." Kangxi warned with a smile, the baby is really too small, and I'm afraid it will hurt too much.

"Your servant knows." Aling'ah took the child carefully, but he didn't expect that the kid would start crying as soon as he got into his arms, which made Ling'ah extremely embarrassed.

"Don't cry, don't cry...here, why does he keep crying?" Ah Ling couldn't be coaxed, his face turned green, and he hurriedly returned the child. "It seems that the slave is really stupid, I should bother Mammy."

Mammy smiled and said, "Your Excellency, the way you hug is wrong, you should do it this way."

Mammy acted as a teacher for him, but Alinga scratched his head, and he didn't see any difference, so he was even more embarrassed.

Ma Yuan couldn't help but look at Kangxi and asked, "Your Majesty, don't you want to go in and see Concubine Niu?"

Kangxi said: "Since the mother and child are safe, I won't go in. I have thought of a name for this child. I (this word can't be displayed, so I can only do this), what do you think?"

"The concubine doesn't understand these things. Since the emperor chose her, then it must be good." Ma Guan was surprised but also secretly pleased. The emperor really has double standards. Every time she gave birth, the emperor couldn't wait to enter the house.When it was Niu's turn, she was unwilling to go in.

This shows that Concubine Niu is far less important to him than himself.

She just likes the double standard of the emperor!

"Well, you should work harder and take good care of Concubine Niu. I still haven't finished reading the scriptures." Kangxi squeezed Ma Yuan's palm and left with a smile. A Ling'a quickly followed.

"Concubine Degui, this is the name the emperor chose for the little elder brother." Liang Jiugong took out a piece of paper with two words written on it, which was obviously prepared by Kangxi early in the morning.

In fact, another sheet was written, which was the name of the princess, so there was no need for Liang Jiugong to take it out at this time.

"I know." Ma Guan took the paper and waited for the emperor to walk away before entering the delivery room.

Niu Pin was lying on the bed with a pale complexion, when she saw Ma Guan coming in alone, the look of anticipation in her eyes disappeared immediately.But he recovered quickly, and it can only be said that he shouldn't have these illusions long ago.

"I've seen Concubine Degui...it's really wrong to bother your lady to come and visit this New Year's Eve." Concubine Niu struggled to get up to pay her respects.

"Sister Niu Pin, please don't be polite. You just gave birth and you are weak, so just lie down." Ma Guan walked over and sat by the bed, and showed the note in her hand to Niu Pin: "This is the emperor's gift for you." The name the little elder brother took."

Concubine Niu took a look and frowned slightly: "Yin me."

She is naturally literate, but the word "礻wo" seems to have no other meaning. The emperor named the little elder brother by this name, but he doesn't know what it means.

Thinking of Yinzhen, Yinzuo and others, I was inevitably a little disappointed.Especially Yinzuo, when the name first spread, everyone discussed it for a while, guessing whether the emperor liked this one.

She forced a smile and said, "Since it was chosen by the emperor, it must be a good name."

"Well, I just took a look at the little elder brother. He is very cute, and the emperor likes him very much." Ma Yuan didn't want to discuss this matter, so he changed the subject: "Today is really a double blessing, just now Niu Gulu The guards came with the emperor, and the emperor gave him and his sister a marriage on the spot."

She raised the corners of her lips slightly, looked at Niu Concubine's astonished expression and said with a smile: "Sister Niu Concubine, we will really be a family from now on."

Concubine Niu was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses. Although she had expected this, it was still hard to accept this day.

The emperor gave A Ling'a and Mayanzhu a marriage?Doesn't it mean that Niu Gulu's family and Wu Ya's family have become in-laws?

Then the family will definitely not let her make trouble for Concubine De Gui in the future, although she really has no intention of making trouble for Concubine Degui recently.

"Hello family." She said with a strange expression.

"That's right, then I won't disturb my sister's rest. I have already ordered people to send more supplements. My sister is in confinement for the first time, so she should pay more attention." Ma Guan also ordered it to the end, and then told Concubine Niu After a while, he got up and left.

And the news that Niu Pin gave birth to a little elder brother spread quickly, which made many people envious.Everyone even secretly speculated whether the emperor would restore the status of Concubine Niu because of this.

However, after a few days, there was no movement from the emperor, and everyone was relieved. It seemed that the emperor did not intend to do this.

The news about the emperor's gift of marriage to A Ling'a and Mayanzhu was also spread, but this incident did not cause much disturbance, after all, it had nothing to do with the harem.Only Concubine Tong is restless. After the marriage of these two families, it may not be a good thing for the Tong family.

Ma Guan naturally didn't know what Concubine Tong was thinking, even if she knew, she wouldn't care. She has been paying attention to her family recently.

Before the Spring Festival was over, I heard that Niu Gulu's family had gone to hire. Niu Gulu's family was a famous family with a strong family background, and A Ling'a was the first son, who would inherit the first-class duke in the future.Therefore, when he married a wife, he naturally couldn't be shabby.

It is said that there was a sensation in half of the capital that day, and Ma Guan was very moved when he heard it, and he was very happy for Mayan Zhu.

Once upon a time, when she first traveled here, she also had such expectations.I hope to find someone I like forever, and be a couple for the rest of my life.

It's a pity that God played tricks on her and let her enter the palace as a maid. In order to protect herself, she went from court lady to concubine step by step, and then came to where she is today.

She became the emperor's favorite concubine and gave birth to four children, which made many people envious and jealous.But only she knew that this was not what she wanted.

Do you like the emperor?Of course there are, the emperor has outstanding abilities, his appearance can be regarded as heroic, and he treats her well, even a girl will not dislike her.

But when it comes to love, she really doesn't know if she has it, she always remembers Empress Xiao Zhaoren's words, only when she doesn't love can she live a happier life.

Once in love, the mentality may become distorted and unacceptable.

So far, Ma Guan feels that her mentality is still very healthy, and she lives a leisurely life. This kind of life should be the most envied by people at present.

Withdrawing her mind, Ma Yuan smiled indifferently, and ordered Yuan He and others to prepare a dowry for Mayan Zhu.

The wedding date of the two hasn't been set yet, but it shouldn't be too soon. Niu Gulu's family will definitely have to prepare for a year or so to marry a daughter-in-law.Mayan actually hopes that the wedding date will be set next year or the year after that, so that Mayanzhu will be older, so as not to have intercourse too early.

The New Year passed quickly, and on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, classes for infants and toddlers continued.

This time there are two elder brothers missing, one is the fifth elder brother and the other is the sixth elder brother.Because these two are five years old, they have to go to school officially.

In this way, only the seventh elder brother and the eighth elder brother were left. Ma Guan thought that this would be too deserted and would cause a waste of resources, so she asked Jingfu to follow suit.

Guo Guiren heard that the princess can also go to school, so he asked Concubine Yi to intervene, hoping that Yongfu from her family could also come.Naturally, Ma Guan would not refuse, it would be more lively with one more person.Moreover, Yongfu is less than five years old this year, which is not much different from everyone else's age.

So Guo Guiren sent Yongfu over the next day. Yongfu was timid, and he couldn't let go at first, but Jingfu pulled his elder sister and elder sister and shouted shortly, and they soon played together.

In this way, there are still four children in class.

Compared with the infant and toddler class, Ma Guan is more worried about Yin Zuo's side.Yin Zuo was clever and mischievous since he was a child, and he didn't know how to behave in class. Ma Yuan was always worried that he would provoke the teacher and get his palm slapped.

So on the first day after school, she went to the Shang's study to pick her up, only to see Yinzuo and Yinzhen coming out hand in hand, both brothers were smiling.

"Er Niang!" As soon as they saw Ma Guan, their eyes lit up, and they ran happily.

The two brothers each held Ma Guan's hand, and Yin Zuo rubbed his face against each other. The intimacy made the third elder brother and fifth elder brother who came out later stunned.

Prince Yinfeng moved to Nansan Institute because he was 11 years old, and studied with his elder brother.

Seeing that the fifth elder brother had an envious look on his face, he was raised in the empress dowager's palace since he was a child, and he was not very close to his biological mother, Concubine Yi.Seeing this scene, he couldn't help feeling sour in his heart.

The third elder brother is also a little envious. Since his mother and concubine Rong Concubine failed in the promotion, her personality has changed a little. Since then, she has been very strict with him and wants him to do her best in everything.And in order not to let his concubine fail, he put away all unnecessary emotions and only wanted to study hard.

He didn't know how long it had been since he held hands with Concubine Mu, and Concubine Mu had never fed him again.

And the culprit who caused all this is the woman in front of her: Concubine Degui!

If it weren't for Concubine De Gui, the concubine mother would not have poisoned the prince; if it hadn't been for Concubine De Gui, the concubine mother would not have failed in promotion and would not have been left out in the cold by Khan Ama.

Maybe, the one sitting on the position of noble concubine now is my own concubine mother.

Thinking of this, elder brother San had a flash of resentment in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.At a young age, he learned to endure and show his best side.

"I have seen Concubine Degui." The two elder brothers thought about it, but it was only a short moment.The two quickly stepped forward, saluted and greeted in unison.

"You don't need to be too polite." Ma Guan looked at the third elder brother and the fifth elder brother, and said with a smile: "Yinzuo is going to school on the first day today, I am a little worried, so come and see. Yinzuo didn't give you anything today Do you want to trouble me?"

"Emiang, is this son so unbearable?" Yin Zuo pouted unconvinced, and shook Ma Guan's hand.

The third elder brother smiled kindly: "Sixth brother is very obedient, studies hard, and is also smart. He was praised by several teachers today."

"Emiang, do you hear that, the third elder brother said that the minister is obedient." Yinzuo immediately raised his eyebrows and held his head high.

"Okay, Er Niang knows that you are amazing." Ma Guan touched Yin Zuo's head helplessly, but her eyes were filled with doting and admiration.

She looked at the third elder brother and the fifth elder brother and said: "It's getting late, you should go back earlier."

"Your servant will leave." The two elder brothers hurriedly withdrew and left separately.

Only then did Ma Jue lead Yinzhen and Yinzuo back, and asked Yinzhen as they walked, "Is Yinzuo really not naughty today? Yinzhen, you are his elder brother, you can't help him lie to Emiang."

Yinzuo stared nervously at Yinzhen, but Yinzhen didn't even look at him, and replied honestly: "Emiang, the sixth younger brother performed well today, he wasn't too naughty, and the teacher really praised him."

"That's good." Knowing that Yinzhen would not lie to her, Ma Yu encouraged her, "Yinzuo performed well today, and Erniang will be rewarded tonight."

"Really?" Yin Zuo suddenly beamed with joy, tightly grasped Ma Guan's hand, and asked eagerly: "Emiang, what do you want to reward me?"

"I'll reward you with a little red flower. When you save up to thirty flowers, Er Niang will fulfill your request, okay?" Ma Yu asked him with a smile, and then said to Yinzhen, "Yinzhen is the same."

Yinzuo was full of enthusiasm when he heard the words, and suddenly asked, "Why thirty flowers?"

Ma Guan said solemnly: "Thirty represents one month, which means that you have twelve opportunities a year, and it depends on whether you can seize them. Only when you are obedient every day, will Emiang give you a little red flower."

"That's it..." Yin Zuo rolled his eyes, did he remain obedient for 30 days?Always feel a little difficult!

He said uncertainly: "There, I will try."

Maru: "..."

Do you want to be so unconfident?What is this kid trying to do?Are you really going to make something happen?

"Emiang, the servants there have been in school for a year, can I make twelve requests?" Unexpectedly, Yinzhen also thought carefully, he has been in school for a year, and he is very obedient every day.

"Although the reward system was not implemented last year, Er Niang knew you were obedient, so she made it up for you. Then what do you want from Er Niang?" Ma Yu looked at Yinzhen, feeling a little guilty.

Perhaps because Yinzhen is too obedient and sensible, she really doesn't pay as much attention to him as she does to Yinzuo. Perhaps this is because a crying child has milk to eat?

Yinzhen lit up his eyes, and said happily: "The minister has to think about it carefully. Er Niang, does this always work?"

"Of course." Maru replied with a smile.

Yinzhen laughed happily, thinking all the way, not knowing what was going through his little head.

Seeing him like this, Yinzuo became a little anxious, and secretly resented that he must be obedient, the fourth brother has twelve demands now!

His appearance fell into Ma Guan's eyes, and Ma Guan couldn't help but laugh, this kid knew he was competing, not bad.

Yin Zuo is also a man of his word, and he will be very obedient in the next period of time.If he was obedient, it would be amazing, he was absolutely outstanding in the school, and all the teachers were amazed and praised him full of praise.

It didn't take long for this matter to reach the ears of the emperor. Once the emperor went to the Shang's study in person and stood behind the curtain to eavesdrop.Seeing that Yinzuo is really as quick-witted and intelligent as everyone said, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

And this matter naturally spread to the ears of the concubines, others were fine, after all, the first concubine was not very happy if they didn't go to school together.

Obviously her Yinzhi is also very smart and studies hard, so why doesn't the teacher praise her?Why didn't you tell the emperor?

Hmph, these old things are probably flattering the noble concubine, deliberately trying to please the emperor!

Thinking of the name Yin Zuo, she was even more upset. Among all the elder brothers, the name Lao Liu had a different meaning.Zuo, can he really afford this word?

"Emiang asks you, the sixth elder brother is really that powerful?" Thinking of this, Concubine Rong stared at the third elder brother, disappointed and dissatisfied.

The third elder brother was already envious of Yinzuo's excellence during this period of time, and he became more and more dissatisfied when he heard her ask this question.

"Emiang, he relies on his cleverness, and he likes to say nice things to his teachers, so the teachers are particularly partial to him. If you want Erchen to say, he is not much smarter than Erchen."

"Er Niang guessed it was like this. The sixth elder brother followed Concubine Degui, and he must have been tainted with Concubine Degui's temperament since childhood." Concubine Rong sighed, and asked the third elder brother in disappointment: "Why don't you know? Learn from Sixth Brother, and also please the teachers, let them say more good things about you in front of you Khan Ama?"

"Emiang, a man stands upright, he should be frank, how can he do such a shameless thing?" The third elder brother disdainful.

"What shameless thing? It's the most important thing for you Khan Ama to value, you know?" Concubine Rong was so angry, how dare this kid talk back to her?

The third elder brother lowered his head aggrievedly, he also wanted to make Han Ama value him, but Erniang was not liked by Han Ama, and Han Ama rarely came to see him, what could he do?

This night, the third elder brother became more and more wronged as he thought about it. Although he knew how to hide his emotions, he was still only a child of seven or eight years old.

A thought suddenly popped up in my mind: It would be great if there was no Yinzuo!

As soon as this idea popped up, it grew wildly like a weed and couldn't stop.

Er Niang has come to such a state because of Concubine Degui, so is she going to live under Yin Zuo's halo all the time?

No, he is not reconciled!

Concubine Degui's mother and son bullied others too much, he would never stop there.

……

On the second day, the third elder brother arrived at the school early. Seeing that the teacher hadn't arrived yet, he took the opportunity to put a small box on each of the three younger brothers' seats.

Not long after, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother came, and they all showed surprise when they saw the small box on the table.

"What is this? Who gave it to you?" Yin Zuo picked up the box curiously, and opened it with a click. There were actually two delicious snacks inside.

He couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Although he had eaten breakfast, wasn't he hungry again after walking this way?

"Fourth brother, fifth brother, sixth brother, I specially brought this snack for you to taste, you should eat it quickly, the teacher will be here soon." The third elder brother smiled warmly when he saw that they liked it with.

"It turned out that it was given by the third brother. You are so kind." Yin Zuo praised happily, picked up a piece of snack and fed it into his mouth.

Yin Zhen frowned slightly, but he didn't have time to stop it.

He still remembered that Er Niang had told him not to stay with the third elder brother for too long, and he hadn't forgotten what happened back then.At that time, he was only two years old, and he was beaten up by the third elder brother in Mulan paddock, and then he was pushed into the pool and almost drowned.

So this year, he has been lukewarm to the third elder brother, and only maintained the most basic courtesy.

But thinking about it, Brother San would not be so bold as to poison the dim sum, otherwise he would be exposed immediately.

"Thank you third brother." He showed a faint smile, picked up a snack and ate a piece.

The four elder brothers talked while eating, and the teacher came late after all the snacks were eaten.

Unexpectedly, during class that day, Yinzuo actually dozed off, and the teacher was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.Yin Zuo felt very innocent, he didn't know what was wrong with him, he just wanted to sleep, obviously he went to bed early last night.

This is the first time to be criticized by the teacher, Yin Zuo is downcast.

Finally, when school was over, the third elder brother came over to inquire with concern, and finally suggested: "It's still early today, let's play hide-and-seek. The fifth and sixth brothers only came this year, so they probably haven't played hide-and-seek before."

"I haven't played it before, third brother, is hide and seek fun?" Yinzuo became interested. Recently, he felt tired after going to school every day, so he didn't have time to play.

"Of course it's fun. We used to play often when the elder brother and the prince were still here." The third elder brother smiled and said: "Let's play for half an hour, and go back together after half an hour."

"Okay..." Yinzuo said a word, looked at Yinzhen again, and asked expectantly: "Fourth brother, just play for a while?"

"Then let's play for a while." Yinzhen didn't want to spoil the fun, he did play with his brothers a few times last year.

Yinzuo was delighted, so the four of them scissored rock-paper-scissors. Whoever lost was responsible for finding someone, and the rest went to hide.Unexpectedly, Yinzhen nodded and lost the first game, so he left the room and let the other three people hide first.

Yinzuo looked around and found that he could be found easily wherever he hid, but it was a good idea to have a cabinet for storing books.

As a result, I saw the third brother walking over.

"Third brother plans to hide here?" He asked a little unwillingly.

The third elder brother smiled triumphantly: "This is a good place. I used to hide here, and no one could find me."

"Oh." Yinzuo looked enviously.

"Forget it, I'll let you hide in today." The third elder brother patted his chest pretending to be magnanimous, and even helped open the cabinet. "Come on in."

"Third brother really let me in? Then where are you hiding?" Yinzuo was excited and touched, third brother is so kind.

"Then I can't tell you, if you tell your fourth brother, wouldn't you find me right away?" Third elder brother said worriedly.

Yin Zuo smiled awkwardly: "Third brother, then I will hide in."

Saying that, he got in quickly, and the third elder brother helped him close the door of the cabinet.

The cabinet suddenly fell into darkness, and it was quiet inside, Yin Zuo suddenly shuddered.

At this moment, Yinzhen's voice sounded: "Are you all hiding? I'm coming in."

Yin Zuo quickly covered his mouth, not daring to vent his breath, and just stared blankly at the cabinet door.But he didn't realize that the outside of the cabinet was actually locked.

Not long after, he heard footsteps coming in, and he smiled triumphantly, the fourth brother must not be able to find him.As he listened, he yawned, and after a while, he dozed off again.

As everyone knows, Yinzhen went crazy looking outside, and searched the entire Shangshu room with the third elder brother and the fifth elder brother three times, but found no trace of Yin Zuo.
