Qing Dynasty Chronicle

Yin Zhen stared blankly at the person who came, and before he had time to flap his round ears, the court lady and eunuch behind him called out the name of the other party first, "Slave please greet the thirteenth elder brother."

Yinxiang was still squatting like that, and waved his hands, "Get up, why did you bring the little guy here?"

The leading eunuch smiled respectfully, "Returning to Brother Shisan, Baoer came here after strolling." Then he stepped forward and wanted to hug Yinzhen, "I didn't want to disturb Master Shisan, slave Let's take Bao'er away."

Yinzhen ran forward faster than the eunuch and hid behind Yinxiang.

Yinzhen's sudden action stunned everyone present, and the eunuchs and maids were a little at a loss. Everyone knew that the panda was now the Queen Mother's darling, so they didn't dare to force it. Yinxiang was also taken aback for a moment. , looked back at the little guy hooking his paws on his vest, suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled, then turned to the eunuch and asked, "Are you planning to take it back to Mama Huang?"

"Responding to Elder Brother Thirteen's words, the queen mother only said to let Bao'er come out to relax, but didn't say when to bring her back." The eunuch thought for a while and replied.

"So..." Yinxiang pondered for a while and then said, "Since the little guy doesn't want to go, let him stay here, and I'll send him back to Huang Mama later."

"This..." Yinxiang's words made the eunuch a little embarrassed.

Yinxiang continued, "Could it be that you think I will take this little guy away?"

"I don't dare." The little eunuch quickly denied it, and after some consideration in his mind, he finally nodded, "Then I will trouble Brother Thirteen."

"It's okay, you all go quickly." Yinxiang shook his head and drove away.

The little eunuch didn't hesitate, he took the eunuchs and maids behind him to salute and then left. He thought about going back to the palace to answer the Queen Mother. It's just a matter of bringing the panda cub back by himself. When the time comes, with the Queen Mother's order, Brother Thirteen will not be able to say anything.

Yin Xiang didn't care what the little eunuch was thinking, he waited until a group of people disappeared under the arch before looking down at the fluffy dumpling who was also looking around, "I didn't expect you to be close to me."

After hearing Yinxiang's words, Yinzhen raised his head and smiled flatteringly at him, but this smile looked like grinning in Yinxiang's eyes.

Yinxiang was amused by Yinzhen's appearance, leaned over and hugged him into his arms, sat down on the stone bench, touched Yinzhen's head, "Look at you, you are so stupid, no wonder you are liked by the emperor mama!"

"You're the one who's stupid, sir, don't you know how cute you are!" Yinzhen was not happy about being called stupid by his thirteenth brother, and pushed Yinxiang with his paw, screaming non-stop.

"Oh, the little guy is really small-minded, you know what I mean about you?" Yinzhen suddenly struggled and Yinxiang almost lost his hold and fell him, while comforting the restless Yinzhen and Yinxiang's mouth While coaxing, "Okay, okay, don't say you are stupid, how can the little thing that Khan Ama picked be stupid?"

After being coaxed by Yinxiang, Yinzhen really didn't bother anymore, but in the end he gritted his teeth at Yinxiang seriously, "If I were stupid, you would be the brother of a fool, and you are also a fool!"

Yinxiang didn't understand, but thought this little guy was very spiritual, he touched Yinzhen's little head with a smile, then put his arm over Yinzhen's belly, pointed to the carp in the pond and said to Yinzhen, " You, don't think I'm scolding you when I say you're stupid. In fact, in this palace, only stupid people can live well. Only stupid people don't care about so many things and care about so many things It doesn't matter whether you are really stupid or pretending to be stupid, only stupid people can live well in this palace, people who are too smart..." Yinxiang said with a trace of sadness on his face, and his voice was low Go on, "People who are too smart always live too tired..."

After saying this sentence, Yinxiang was stunned as if he had just woken up from a big dream, and the feeling of disappointment on his face disappeared, and he turned into his usual nonchalant expression, "Hey, why am I telling you this, it's weird Boring!"

Yinzhen is not fluttering around now, he leans obediently in Yinxiang's arms and feels a little sour and uncomfortable when he listens to him say these sincere words that he probably hasn't told others.

Since Yinreng was abolished, Yinxiang seemed to have been completely forgotten by Kangxi, and he was no longer valued and favored in the past. This situation has not improved until Yinreng is restored, and all the brothers are crowned kings and knights. At the beginning when Yinzhen was crowned the king of the county and Yinxiang had nothing, Yinzhen suddenly didn't know how to face this thirteenth brother who took care of him a lot on weekdays.

Over there Yinzhen felt awkward, but Yinxiang was the first to come over with a smile and pat Yinzhen on the shoulder, "Such a happy event, Shisi must invite brother to drink!"

Yinzhen looked at the smiling Yinxiang, feeling sad for a while, but still nodded with a smile and invited Yinxiang to the best restaurant in the capital for a meal. It is still deeply imprinted in my mind, such as Yinxiang's smile that never reached his eyes, such as Yinxiang's cup after cup of wine.

Yinzhen didn't know why Kangxi suddenly left Yinxiang cold, just like he never knew what Yinxiang did when Yinreng was deposed outside the Great Wall to make Kangxi despise him so much now, these are all like unsolvable mysteries , No matter how Yinzhen explored, he couldn't get the answer—Kangxi didn't say anything, Yinxiang didn't say anything, and Yinzhen came to ask himself if he knew the inside story.

On that day, Yinzhen just silently accompanied Yinxiang to get drunk, and then looked at Yinxiang the next day as if he had nothing to do and went to do whatever he should do.

However, it is only now that Yinzhen understands that Yinxiang is no longer the high-spirited thirteenth brother when he came here in 42. He can pretend to be the same in front of others, but when there is no one, he Taking off that camouflage reveals how tired and hurt he is.

Yinzhen looked at Yinxiang, who had fine lines at the corners of his eyes at a young age, stood upright and hugged his neck, screaming and rubbed his head against his face.

Yinxiang was taken aback by Yinzhen's thoughtful actions, looked down at the soft eyes of the hairball in his arms, the clear black eyes, and felt that there was such a comforting meaning in those eyes. He couldn't help showing a smile, and raised his hand to gently touch Yinzhen's head, "What a caring little guy, no wonder Huang Mama likes you so much, even I want to raise one."

Yinzhen has always been soft-hearted, now seeing that Yinxiang is unhappy, even if he made such a joke, he didn't grin his teeth, he just put his arms around Yinxiang's neck and rested on his shoulder again and stopped talking.

This kind of coquettishness made Yinxiang's heart soften into a pool of water. With a smile on his lips, he patted Yinzhen's fleshy back, "Looking at you like this, you are somewhat similar to the fourteenth brother, the same She likes to be coquettish and shameless, but she is also so heart-warming."

After hearing Yinxiang's words, Yinzhen raised his head and tilted his head to look at Yinxiang.

Yinxiang was amused by Yinzhen's naive expression, and stretched out his hand to rub Yinzhen's round ears, "Look, the eyes are all the same. At this moment, the fourteenth brother was sent out of Beijing by Khan Ama Went on a business trip, if he was in Beijing and saw you, he would definitely feel like old friends at first sight." Yinzhen still felt flattered when he heard the first half of the sentence, but the next sentence made him blow up, "It's the same It's stupid."

"Bastard, how could anyone say such bad things about his brother behind his back!" Yinzhen yelled again, and began to make trouble in Yinxiang's arms.

"Oh, look at you, why are you so angry, don't say it, can't you do it if you don't say it?" Yinxiang was so troubled by Yinzhen, he raised his hand and surrendered.

Yinzhen snorted, and jumped out from the gap between Yinxiang's arms.

Yinxiang only felt that his waist was being pulled and pulled, and when he turned his head to look, the wine gourd on his waist had already run into Yinzhen's arms. The little guy hugged the wine gourd tightly with his four paws, rushed I screamed triumphantly.

"Your hands are really quick!" Yinxiang shook his head with a smile, and stepped forward to get the wine gourd back, but Yinzhen slapped the wine gourd off his head in a familiar way and took a sip , At the end, he stretched out his tongue and licked his mouth quite reminiscently, and clicked his mouth twice.

Yinxiang was dumbfounded now, "Do you still drink alcohol?"

"That's it!" Yinzhen groaned twice, bowed his head and wanted to drink a few more, but Yinxiang had already reached out with one hand and took the wine gourd back, "I can drink it but I can't give it to you. What's the matter, I can't find a second one to compensate Huang Mama."

Before Yinzhen had had enough, the wine gourd was taken away, and he was dissatisfied immediately. He stood up staggeringly and threw himself on Yinxiang, wanting to snatch the wine gourd back, but Yinxiang naturally couldn't let it go. Yinzhen fulfilled his wish, "Little drunkard, I can't let you drink any more. You are so strong after drinking! You are only a little old, so you can just drink, no way!" Yinxiang hid the wine gourd behind him, but refused Give Yinzhen enough.

Yinzhen can't drink but he loves to drink, especially the kind of soft and sweet wine. The wine in Yinxiang's wine gourd is right for him, so he naturally wants to drink two more sips.

Yinxiang saw that the fluffy little dumpling used all eighteen classes of martial arts for drinking, which made him dumbfounded, and Mozhe who was tossed had no choice but to pick up Yinzhen with a wine gourd in one hand and the other, "Come on, look If you don't give up until you achieve your goal, I don't dare to keep you anymore, I'd better send you back to Huang Mama." After that, he took Yinzhen outside the gazebo.

Yinzhen himself can't hold alcohol very well, and now he is a panda cub again, and the alcohol comes up faster than he thought, and after a while, his head becomes a little dizzy, so he honestly nests in Yinxiang He didn't move in his arms, and his claws still hooked Yinxiang's front lapel, moaning and chirping softly.

Yinxiang thought that Yinzhen was still acting coquettishly because he couldn't drink, so he patted his butt lightly, "Don't act coquettishly, I won't give you a drink if you are coquettish—"

It's just that before Yinxiang finished speaking, he was interrupted by the person he met, "Thirteenth brother."

Yinxiang stopped and looked at the person in front of him, with a polite smile on his face, "Fifth Brother, Ninth Brother."

Yinqi still had that honest and honest look, "Where is Thirteenth Brother going?"

Yinxiang smiled wryly and gestured to the dumpling in his arms, "Just now I met this little guy out for a walk, I teased him for a while and now I'm sending it back to Mama Huang."

"Hey, this is the panda cub, right?" Yinqi noticed the little guy in Yinxiang's arms, stepped forward to tease him a few times and found that the little guy was sleeping soundly, "Just fell asleep?"

"Ah, yes." Yinxiang was drunk looking at this little thing, and felt a little guilty after doing something bad, "Little brats are sleepy."

"Why does it smell like alcohol?" Yinzhen, who was standing aside at this moment, opened his mouth.

"Ah, that, just now when this little thing was playing, it pulled down my wine gourd and knocked it over." Yinxiang explained with a dry laugh.

Yinzhen raised his eyebrows and wanted to say something, but Yinqi opened his mouth first, "Little bastards are so troublesome. Come on, thirteenth brother, go to Huang Mama's place, my ninth brother and I have just invited Huang Mama Ann, I am going to our mother-in-law's right now."

"Hey, then don't delay the fifth brother and the ninth brother." Yinxiang nodded quickly after hearing this, "Let's get together and talk together when we have free time in the future."

"Success!" Yinqi happily agreed, and Yinzhen also responded with an unclear meaning.

When he saw that the two had disappeared, Yin Xiang let out a sigh of relief and carried Yin Zhen to the Empress Dowager's Palace.

In the afternoon, Prince Yong, who went to the Empress Dowager's Palace to pick up children from kindergarten after finishing his business, got a black and white fluffy dumpling nestled together in a brocade quilt and sleeping soundly.

Prince Yong looked at the old queen with puzzled eyes.

The old queen cheerfully pointed to the dumpling who had been asleep and said, "Playing with Thirteen, you're drunk!"

Prince Yong, "..."
