seven steps

Mid autumn

On August [-]th, a banquet was held in the palace as usual.During the banquet, the prince and elder brother also calmed down rarely, and sat there obediently.Kangxi is quite satisfied with this status quo.In fact, he is not only an emperor, but also a father. Seeing that his sons are no longer fighting each other like enemies, he is more or less happy. Although he also knows that all this is just an illusion, it must be said that when everyone is happy, The most uncomfortable thing is Yinhu.On one side is Yinzhen, and on the other is the prince.

Everyone pretended to be brothers and sisters, and it was absolutely impossible for him not to cooperate.

Just thinking like this, in a blink of an eye, the prince came to their table with a wine glass, and the prince stood beside Yinhu without a trace. Yinhu began to regret it. When the banquet started, he wanted to hide Yinzhen did not sit with Yinzhen, and his current situation is no different from being alone.

The prince put one hand on Yinhu's right shoulder very naturally, and when everyone saw the prince walking over with a wine glass, they naturally stood up.

The prince smiled brightly, it could even be said to be "smiling like a flower". "Today, they are all my brothers. There is not so much etiquette. Brothers have a drink together." The words are just right and timely, so that people can't pick a little bit of flaws.

The prince smiled and said that everyone sitting there cooperated. Of course, the ones with the stiffest smiles were the elder brother and Yinhu.There is also a gloomy smile, needless to say, it is Yinzhen.

The elder brother saw the prince who was in the spotlight and was a role model for his elder brother, and he couldn't help but secretly resent him. This good thing and reputation were all taken up by him, as if his elder brother cared about the overall situation.Yinhu, on the other hand, seemed to be haunted by evil spirits, and only hoped that someone could rescue her soon.

"Yinfeng, come here." At this time, Kangxi's voice came over, and Yinhu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but the prince noticed all this subtle movement.

The prince laughed it off, and immediately walked towards Kangxi.

He found that sometimes it was very interesting to see Yinhu's nervous appearance, just like a cat sneaking.

In fact, there was nothing wrong with Kangxi calling the prince over, but he just told himself that there were still unapproved memorials, and asked him to personally send the queen mother back to the palace, and then go to the Qing palace.The prince probably knew the reason why Kangxi called him over, and he agreed respectfully on his face.As soon as Kangxi left, everyone became casual.Yinhu was not good at drinking, and after a few cups, he couldn't help feeling a little dizzy. Seeing that the prince was accompanying the queen mother, he felt a little relieved and went for a walk by himself.

Yinzhen saw it and was about to follow her out, but was held back by brother ten. "Ninth brother, don't go. Let's help myna look at the prince. I always feel that the prince is targeting myna. You will go now. If I can't stop the prince, it will be troublesome. Fourth brother will go to myna's place." .rest assured."

Brother Jiu looked at Yinzhen who didn't know when to follow, and nodded.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th, the moon is naturally extremely round. Yinhu walked alone and looked up at the moon. He thought in his heart that it was indeed an agreement to see the lanterns every year, and he might not see it this year.

In fact, after watching the lanterns a few times, there is nothing new about it, but seeing them together has become an indispensable habit.Even he didn't know when it started, this habit was already so important, he wanted to quit, but found it was a heart-burning pain.

Sighed, after all, I was too stupid.

Yinzhen looked at the person walking in front, and the moment he raised his head to look at the moon, the moonlight poured down, as if it was all sprinkled on that person's face.The face that was already as gentle as jade, reflected the clear light of the moon shadow, was indescribably flawless.That person should not have been born in the emperor's family after all.Hearing his sigh, Yinzhen walked a few steps quickly.Come behind him "What are you thinking?"

It was only then that Yinhu discovered Yinzhen's arrival, thinking that he was too absorbed just now, so he didn't hear Yinzhen's footsteps. These days, he has been hiding from Yinzhen, and now the two are alone, and they are so close. Plus the moonlight is ambiguous.Yinhu became nervous for no reason.

"It's nothing."

"Well, it's fine." After finishing speaking, he took the man's hand and walked through another corridor to the Shenwu Gate.

"Fourth brother, is this going out of the palace?"

"Didn't you forget the agreement between you and me?" The question was ambiguous, and Yinhu naturally didn't answer it.

Yinzhen didn't want him to answer either.move on.Yinzhen didn't let go until he was out of the palace gate.Outside the Shenwu Gate, Gao Wuyong had already prepared two fine horses.Yinhu looked at Yinzhen, and then at the horse, thinking that this person had premeditated coming.

Yinzhen got on his horse.Seeing that Yinhu was still standing beside the horse, he said, "Couldn't Xiao Ba ask Fourth Brother to help you get on the horse?"

Yinhu gave him a blank look, and immediately got on the horse.

"Fourth brother, where are you going?"

"You just come with me, maybe the fourth brother can sell you"

Yinhu saw that he had said all this, so he stopped talking. Yinzhen rode away first, and Yinhu could only follow obediently. After walking for a while, Yinhu asked, "Fourth brother, isn't this place for watching lanterns?" the way?"

Yinzhen smiled, "You will know later."

After walking for another half an hour, they arrived at the yard that Yinzhen had bought before.Yin Zhen dismounted from his horse and knocked on the door, and it was a little girl who opened the door.Seeing Yinzhen's respectful salute.

Yinhu was still surprised, he looked up at the plaque of the other courtyard, it said "Zhiyuan" was clearly written by Yinzhen himself, so this courtyard should be bought by Yinzhen at some point Leave the hospital.It's just that Zhiyuan... Could it be?Yinhu was frightened by the thoughts in his heart, so he immediately stopped his thoughts and entered the yard with Yinzhen.

As soon as he entered, he stayed.Lanterns all over the courtyard.The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus is still in the air.Yinhu looked sideways, and saw a few sweet-scented osmanthus trees blooming with dots of sweet-scented osmanthus, like a sky full of stars.

"Fourth brother, this..." Yinhu was indeed shocked.

Yinzhen stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Yinhu's shocked appearance, "I bought it a few days ago, and I was thinking of making it our home for you and me. I brought you here when I was ready today. Do you still like it?"

To this, Yinhu replied in a low voice, "Fourth Brother, I'm worried."

Yinzhen reached out and took down a lamp and handed it to him.Yinhu reached out to take it.The hands of the two touched each other for a moment, it was quite normal to say it, but for some reason, Yinhu was taken aback, Yinzhen's hand was not as cold as his own, but had a comfortable warmth.

I don't know if it's because of the lanterns or something else, but Yinhu's face seems to be red.Yinzhen saw all this in his eyes, but his face remained calm.

"When did the fourth brother buy this yard?"

Yinhu couldn't bear the silence between the two of them.Cooperating with the lanterns all over the courtyard, it is indescribably charming.

"Half a month ago."

Half a month ago, it was the day when he took him out of the palace. Yinhu didn't expect that it was exactly this time, and he couldn't help but think of the fallen young man again.Even though they are deeply affectionate, they cannot escape the teasing of secular ethics.

"I have taken a fancy to this other courtyard for a long time, and it happens to be a temporary escape. I can come here to rest when my mind is dull and my body and mind are leisurely. There are still a few pieces of land behind the yard. It is not fun to grow something by myself. The most important thing is I want to give you a home away from the palace."

Yinzhen spoke directly, he didn't look at Yinhu next to him, but he also knew that he heard what he said in his heart.

"On the day I bought the yard, I went to Yong'an Temple. After listening to the words of the abbot, I understood a lot. People live a lifetime, not for others, but for themselves to live freely and comfortably. If everything is for others' eyes Speech, it would be better not to live. After all, living is one's own business, so why bother with irrelevant people's opinions and comments."

"Fourth brother, it's impossible for a person to be truly comfortable while alive." Yinhu lowered his head, his tone was a little helpless, and his voice became softer.

Yinzhen nodded, "I know it, but I have my obsession."

Yinhu thought of the name of this other courtyard, obsession, so it was already obsession? "Fourth brother, since it's an obsession, it's better to let it go."

"If this obsession becomes a part of being alive, then how can it be let go. This yard is called Zhiyuan, Xiaoba should understand."

Yes, he understands, of course he understands, but he still can't get over that hurdle himself.He will never forget the secular etiquette.

Yinzhen didn't hear Yinhu's answer, and secretly sighed in his heart, after all, he was pushing him too hard. "It's getting late, Xiaoba, let's go take a bath. Go to bed early, and the fourth brother will send you back to the palace tomorrow morning."

"Yeah." Yinhu replied softly.

Yinhu responded and left first, but when he left, he forgot to put down the lantern, so he kept carrying the lantern.When he entered the house, he saw a line of words written on the lantern, "I hope you will live a long time, and you don't have to travel thousands of miles to share the beauty."

He suddenly laughed, this fourth brother is always so tough and domineering.

Yinhu was about to go to bed after bathing, when the door was pushed open.Yinzhen walked in. "Fourth brother?"

"Yeah." Yinzhen replied softly.

Yinhu thought for a while and then asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Sleep." Yin Zhen said it as a matter of course.But Yinhu remained silent.

Yinzhen took off his outer shirt and walked to the bed. "Still asleep?"

"Oh." Yinhu consciously slept on the inside.Yinzhen lay down and held him in his arms.Yinhu closed his eyes obediently and went to sleep, he didn't worry about what Yinzhen would do, he believed in Yinzhen.

Yinzhen looked at Yinhu who was sleeping peacefully, and sighed.I really don't know whether to see him sleeping peacefully like this should be happy because of his trust, or should be troubled by this guy's stupidity.Thinking of it, I couldn't help but smile wryly.

Close your eyes and stop thinking about it.It's useless to think too much, just enjoy the tranquility of this moment.

On this day, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the two were silent, but everything was in silence.This year, Yinzhen was thirteen and Yinhu was ten.Because of his youth, he is brave.

People are not frivolous, it is a waste of youth.

The author has something to say: people are not frivolous and waste youth! ~ ho ho
