After Xiaobao said this, he lowered his head to eat his snacks, which made the emperor feel very uncomfortable.

He wanted to get angry, he wanted to say that he was not alone and didn't need your company, but he couldn't say what he wanted to say.

A while ago, he had his [-]th birthday, and there were congratulatory voices all around him, and officials of all sizes offered real or fake 'auspiciousness'.In the past few days, he has been in a bad mood, and even the servants are unwilling to join him.

Xiao Bao was right, he was indeed lonely.

The emperor became wilted and didn't get angry anymore, he pushed the snack plate towards Xiao Bao.

"Shut up and eat your snack!" the emperor whispered.

The half-child who was still growing up had a good appetite, and Xiaobao emptied half of the snacks on the table.

The emperor hurriedly stopped him, not daring to let him eat any more.

"Okay, okay, don't eat, eat so much, you won't be able to eat it for lunch later."

"No, I can eat very well, and I'm still growing."

Saying this, Xiaobao still stopped talking, and he took out the handkerchief to wipe his hands clean.

"My lord, where are we going to play?"

"Aren't you here to accompany me? How do you know how to play?"

Xiaobao said as a matter of course: "I am still a child! Of course I like to play!"

The emperor smiled and scratched his face a few times, "Shame, shame! You are almost married, and you still think of yourself as a child?"

"My mother-in-law said that as long as I am not married, I am a child. My mother-in-law also said that people like me who always say the words "my mother-in-law said" are I can’t marry a wife. So, I’ve been a child all my life.”

The emperor was amused by him, Xiaobao asked: "Your Majesty, shall we dig out the eggs?"

The emperor shook his head, "It's fun to pick out bird eggs and climb up and down. Let's go fishing!"

"Fishing?" This time it was Xiaobao's turn to shake his head, "Fishing is too boring, I don't want it!"

The emperor scolded with a smile: "Are you accompanying me or am I accompanying you? Since you are here to accompany me, of course my opinion shall prevail."

Xiaobao nodded helplessly, "Okay, okay! Then go fishing!"

The tone of his speech was extremely reluctant, as if he was accommodating a vexatious child.

The emperor felt angry and funny, so he reached out and pinched Xiaobao's face.

The people below did not dare to neglect, and they quickly prepared bait and fishing rods.

Xiaobao was able to appease the irritable emperor, but the portrait below had caught the savior, wishing to confess him.

The grandparents and grandchildren sat by the water, with sunshades on their heads, cushions under their buttocks, and snacks and tea beside them. They were very comfortable.It's just that the snacks are placed on the emperor's side, and there is only a pile of spiced pumpkin seeds beside Xiaobao.

Xiaobao put his fishing rod on the ground, concentrated on cracking melon seeds, and insisted on pouting to spray the skins on the water.

The emperor looked at it with distaste, "It's not good to throw melon seed skins, I have to spit them into the water. Look, they have all floated to my side, and the fish are no longer hooked."

Xiaobao plausibly said, "Use melon seeds to pretend to be falling flowers to create a safe atmosphere, so that fish like to take the bait more. I'm not greedy for melon seeds, it's a trick!"

The emperor patted him on the back of the head, "Full of nonsense!"

The emperor waved his hand, telling the waiters to go away.He asked Xiaobao, "Do you want to study in the palace?"

Xiaobao coughed in shock, "No need! I have almost finished reading all the books I should read, so there is no need to go to the palace to study."

The emperor sneered, "You have such a big tone! There is no limit to learning, I am still reading every day at this age, how old are you, dare to say that you have finished reading the book?"

Xiaobao looked at the emperor pitifully, "But we are different! You are the emperor, you have to make progress. I am a dude, and if I don't go whoring or gamble, I have a high moral character."

The emperor scolded: "Nothing! A man should make contributions, don't you have any ambition in your heart? No matter how bad it is, don't you have any idea about the position of the son?"

Xiao Bao turned pale with shock, "Your Majesty, my elder brother is still fine!"

The emperor was helpless, "I didn't mean that, I mean, you can't always live under the protection of your parents. In the future, when your elder brother becomes the eldest son and inherits the title, you will be an ordinary royal family member?"

Xiaobao frowned, "The emperor is right, I really can't live under the protection of my parents forever."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, "So I let you study in the palace. No matter how much you have learned in the palace, you will be different from other emperors and grandchildren after studying in the palace."

Xiaobao said: "But I can live under the protection of my elder brother!"

The emperor: "..." I think you are trying to anger me on purpose!

"Did you never think of being a prince?" The emperor asked with a frown.

Xiao Bao wiped off the floating ash on his hands, and sighed helplessly, "I must have thought about it, and I am not the only one who thinks about it, our whole family has thought about it.

Our family's selection of the eldest son is different from other families. Other families let the eldest son or the first son inherit the title. Our family only sees whether it is suitable or not.

Guaibao is too young, he only knows how to eat and play.The elder brother is both the eldest son and the eldest son, and he is very good at dealing with others. He is the most suitable son.As for me... a person like me who only loves to bask in the sun and daze, how can I be a prince? "

Xiaobao got up and went to the emperor to make some snacks, "There are many embarrassing things in this world, but as long as you put aside the rules and don't care if it fits or not, those difficult things will not be difficult."

After listening to Xiaobao's words, the emperor was thoughtful.

After working all morning, the emperor and Xiaobao only caught one fish, which was only three fingers wide, enough to see and eat.At lunch time, the dining room cooked a lot of delicious dishes, and Xiaobao ate and drank again, until his belly was full.

For the next few days, Xiao Bao stayed in Changchun Garden, and he sent someone home to say that he would stay with a friend for a few days.Of course the fourth elder brother and Shuwan knew where he was, but they just pretended not to know.

With Xiaobao by his side, the emperor's mood improved a lot. Xiaobao didn't go home until the emperor returned to his previous state.

There are many people around the emperor, and the fact that the second elder brother of Prince Yong's mansion took the initiative to appease the emperor cannot be concealed after all.

The fourteenth elder brother came to the door with wine, and talked about it with the fourth elder brother.

"I used to dissatisfy the fourth brother, but now I can't accept it! It is also raising children, how can the fourth brother teach such a sensible child? Tell me about the few in our family! I sent them to comfort the emperor? How could they have such a child?" You don't have that kind of filial piety, let alone that kind of courage!"

The fourth elder brother glanced at him, but did not explain that Xiaobao was not sent by him.

Elder Fourteen wanted to see Xiao Bao, "Fourth Brother, where are the children? They are all young men, let them come out and have a few drinks with me, my uncle."

The fourth elder brother was lukewarm to the fourteenth elder brother, "The children are studying, so it's not convenient to drink."

The fourteenth elder brother smiled and said: "Fourth brother, the children study hard, so it's okay to delay for a day and a half."

"Studies must not be neglected. If the fourteenth brother wants to drink, I will invite the eighth and ninth brothers here."

Brother Fourteen sneered, "Then... that's unnecessary."

The fourth elder brother sneered in his heart, disregarding the wishes of the fourteenth elder brother, he invited the ninth elder brother over.

It's not hard to guess what the fourteenth brother is thinking. Everyone can see Xiaobao's favor, and the fourteenth brother feels a little cramped when doing things.

He never took care of this nephew before, but now that he saw Xiaobao's value, he started to win over him.

Ninth elder brother is also in a bad mood recently. He didn't want to go out at first, but when he heard that fourteenth elder brother was also there, he immediately changed his clothes and set off.

At the dinner table, Brother Nine made a face, as if Brother Fourteen owed him money.

"The fourteenth brother is getting more and more prestigious now, and he is doing well in the military department! Among us brothers, no one can compare to you!"

Brother Fourteen waved his hands again and again, "No, Brother Ninth, you've won the prize. I'm just dawdling, not as good as Brother Nine in the household department."

Ninth elder brother drank a glass of wine, "Fourteenth brother is amazing! Ever since you worked in the military department, you have become sociable. Take all the people my starling introduces to you for your own use!"

Elder Fourteen laughed dryly, "Is Brother Ninth drunk and talking nonsense! How can this happen!"

Brother Jiu sneered, "I'm not blind with my eyes open, and the head on my neck is not a decoration, what are you pretending, I don't know you yet?"

He knocked on the table and said, "How did my starling and I get away from each other? How dare you say that you didn't provoke in the middle? What happened to those two sea dongqings? Mynah is always cautious. Except for those close to me, who can move their hands and feet?" ?”

Brother Fourteen was also annoyed, "Brother Ninth, I respect you for your patience, don't go too far!"

"Where did I go too far? I'm telling the truth!" Ninth Brother asked Fourth Brother to comment, "Fourth Brother, tell me, is what I said the truth?"

The fourth elder brother was caught in the middle and mixed with the mud, "You all calm down, there must be a misunderstanding here."

Brother Nine stood up abruptly, "There is no misunderstanding! He is just a grass on the wall, whoever is prosperous will join him, and when the fire is gone, he can run faster than anyone else!"

Brother Fourteen doesn't like to hear these words, "Hi Brother Ninth, Brother Nine is great, Brother Nine is loyal, and now Brother Mynah is down and out, why don't you see me to send charcoal in the snow? Didn't you run away too?"

Brother Nine was so angry that he grabbed Brother Fourteen by his collar, "Say it again if you have the courage!"

Brother Fourteen patted his hand away and said naively: "Why should I listen to you? I just won't say anything!"

He straightened his collar, and cupped his hands at the fourth elder brother, "fourth elder brother, it's such a mess today, I can't even eat, I'll go back first, and I'll see you next time."

The fourteenth elder brother left, and the ninth elder brother was like a deflated ball, holding the wine glass listlessly, taking small sips.

The fourth elder brother asked: "What happened to Hai Dongqing... are you sure it was done by the fourteenth brother?"

Brother Jiu smiled wryly, "I'm sure there is his handwriting in it, but he shouldn't be able to do this by himself, he must have other helpers."

He sighed, "I just don't have evidence, otherwise I would have stabbed the emperor long ago."

The fourth elder brother patted him on the shoulder, "Don't think so much, let's eat!"

Brother Jiu picked up his chopsticks and said wearily: "Fourth brother, don't blame me for gossiping, you have to watch out for Old Fourteen, he is not as simple as he looks."
