After staying in Qianqing Palace for so many days, the twins firmly equated the words "Chuxiu Palace is unblocked" with "can see E Niang".

Even though the two younger brothers couldn't fully understand what the fourth sister said, but after grasping the key word "unblocking", the twins immediately couldn't stay in Yinreng and Yinti's arms.

Xiao Shi grinned happily, raised his furry little head wearing a golden tiger hat, looked at Yin Reng eagerly, pointed with his right hand in the direction of the hall door and said with a sweet voice:

"Too, paper, cluck, go back, go, look for, uh, cool~"

Yinreng lowered his head and looked at the little one in his arms. He slowly jumped out word by word, while trying hard to suck saliva into his mouth. As if celebrating the New Year in advance, he clenched his chubby little hands into small fists, Le Dian Waving up and down.

A smile flashed in his Ruifeng eyes, he reached out and picked up the light blue saliva bag tied around Xiao Yinxiang's neck, wiped it at the corner of his mouth, turned around and saw his Khan Ama was whispering instructions to Wei Zhu What, I guess he was explaining other important matters.

Because after he clearly saw a flash of surprise in Wei Zhu's eyes, he immediately came back to his senses and nodded respectfully in agreement.

Unlike Brother Ten, who is stable, Xiao Fourteen has a quick temper.

After these days, he had long been tired of staying in Qianqing Palace. At this time, he couldn't wait to go back to Chuxiu Palace to find E Niang. Almost at the same time, Xiao Shi raised his head and talked to the prince's brother, and stayed in Yin Ti's arms. The fourteenth brother began to struggle. Yinti was worried that he might accidentally drop the fourteenth brother, so he had to bend down and place the little one on the carpet, who was moving around like a little tiger in his arms.

When Kangxi gave the last order to Wei Zhu, he turned his eyes and saw Xiao Shisi in red clothes, like a little duck, walking forward with two short legs on the soft carpet. , I didn’t go very far when my legs went weak and I squatted on my butt.

When Yinti who was following him saw this, he was about to step forward and bend down to pick up the naughty little fourteen. Unexpectedly, he took two steps forward. Little fourteen gave up walking and started to use his hands and feet. "Click rub rub" and crawl forward.

He climbed very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the little breast dumpling crawled around the screen and disappeared.

When Kangxi saw this, his eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly waved for Wei Zhu to step back and work. After saying "Let's go to Chuxiu Palace together" to everyone, he strode around the screen and saw Xiao Shisi's face. Half of his small body was already lying sideways on the mahogany threshold, and his feet wearing tiger-head boots were trying hard to fall on the bluestone outside. He stopped the gatekeeper's movement to help and leaned over directly. Sliding up the back collar of Xiao Si Si with his handbag, he hugged his youngest son and led the way out of the main hall.

Yinreng hugged Xiao Shi and followed closely.

Yinzhen, who was following behind, shook his arms and was about to leave with his fourth sister when he saw Yinzhen still standing by the small square rosewood table with a hesitant look on his face.

The thought in Yinzhen's eyes that he wanted to return to Chuxiu Palace as quickly as the twins almost turned into reality, but his feet seemed to have taken root on the carpet, and he couldn't lift them up no matter how hard he tried. Such a contradictory look couldn't help but attract the attention of the brother and sister.

"Come on, Xiaosi, what are you doing here?"

Yinti turned around and took two steps back, stretched out his right hand and grabbed the fourth brother's right arm and walked towards the door.

Ke Jing also smiled and ran to pull on Yinzhen's left arm, raised his leg and said forward:

"Yes, fourth brother, we have to walk faster, otherwise we will be thrown a long way by Khan Ama and the others."

Yinzhen was dragged left and right by his eldest brother and fourth sister, with a look of embarrassment on his face. He pursed his thin lips as if to say something, but in the end he was unable to speak. He was silently surrounded by Yinti and Ke. Jing dragged him all the way out of the main hall of Qianqing Palace.

Liang Jiugong, who was standing behind the brother and sister, saw the tangle in Brother Si's eyes. He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed, and quickly took steps to follow the young master who had already walked out of the hall.

Seeing the elder brother and Princess Kejing pulling the fourth elder brother towards the west door, the fourth elder brother's steps became heavier and heavier.

As the emperor's confidant eunuch, Liang Jiugong has always had a delicate mind, and he couldn't be more clear about what the fourth elder brother was thinking at this time.

The fourth elder brother is a person who can't get rid of sand in his eyes. In this epidemic, so many people inside and outside the palace died directly or indirectly because of Wu Yashi, and his seven younger brothers were even killed and almost lost their lives. , While the fourth elder brother resents the Wuya clan, he must also be a little angry at himself, who has the blood of the Wuya clan on his body, so now he feels shameless to see the imperial concubine, Anfei, Yifei, Xuanbin and others, and express his hatred towards Chu Xiugong. It also gave rise to the feeling of "fear of being close to home".

well!

Liang Jiugong was thinking this, and sure enough, the next moment he saw the young master walking in front of him. He walked along the bluestone palace road to the corner of Yongshou Palace and stopped to argue.

He hurried forward and saw the eldest brother frowning, looking at the fourth brother with great confusion:

"Xiao Si, I don't even know what you are thinking. When the Chuxiu Palace was not unblocked, you were restless all day long. Now that the palace gate has finally been opened, why don't you want to go?"

"Brother, it's not that I don't want to go."

Yinzhen's face turned a little pale, like a puppy that chewed up furniture and was scolded by its owner. He lowered his head in frustration, his eyes wandering, and his two hands hanging by his side unconsciously clasped the crescent moon on his body. White winter robe.

Ke Jing, who was standing next to Yinzhen, also looked at her fourth brother with an inexplicable expression. She was half a year younger than Yinzhen. If Wu Yashi's incident hadn't been too big this time, the Empress Dowager who was in bed recuperating would also have been killed. She was so shocked that she didn't even know that her fourth brother was actually the adopted son of the imperial concubine.

Seeing that her fourth brother, who had always been confident and lively, but also had a bit of a bad temper, had become timid and his whole person looked a little gloomy, she couldn't help but bite her lower lip with her teeth and pulled her body with her right hand. Next to the eldest brother's navy blue winter robe, he signaled his eldest brother to stop talking.

Before he could finish his words, Yinti felt his fourth sister tug on his winter robe. He turned to look at his fourth sister in confusion. When he saw Kejing purse her lips in silence at him, Yinti's thick eyebrows furrowed even more. Awesome.

Liang Jiugong found the opportunity, with a warm smile on his face, took two steps forward, stood one meter away from his brother, leaned slightly to smooth things over and said:

"Fourth Brother, as far as I know, Nanny Li and the palace maid Li Xia, who moved with you from Chuxiu Palace to Nansuo Palace, were originally transferred from the side hall of Yonghe Palace to Chuxiu Palace by the imperial concubine. "

"They have been taking care of you since you were born."

Hearing this, Yinzhen raised his head suddenly, and his slender red phoenix eyes couldn't help but widen.

He understood the implication of Liang Jiugong's words. Aunt Li and Li Xia were originally members of the Wu Ya clan.

Nanny Li and Sister Lixia have been with him since he could remember. Unexpectedly, they moved to Chuxiu Palace with him.

Seeing the surprise in Brother Si's eyes, Liang Jiugong smiled cheerfully and said:

"They both know everything about what happened back then. They even know the Wu Ya family better than the imperial concubine. If Fourth Brother has anything he wants to ask, he can ask them. It is not an easy matter for you and the imperial concubine to become mother and son.

If you are confused about something, figure it out as soon as possible, and don’t leave any resentment in your heart.”

"Well, thank you Eunuch Liang, I understand."

Yinzhen raised his hand towards Liang Jiugong, but Liang Jiugong smiled and moved away to avoid it.

"No, what are you talking about?"

According to Yin Ti's rough mind, Wu Ya's body is probably not found in the mass graves. What does Liang Jiugong want to do now by saying these words? To mention Wu Ya's poisonous woman on this happy day, bah!

What bad luck!

Ke Jingze, who lost his mother at birth, couldn't help but blinked, guessing that his fourth brother was probably going to ask Aunt Li and Bai Lu why he was adopted by the imperial concubine.

My son also has to figure out how he became the adopted son of the imperial concubine, right? Only by figuring out what happened back then can the fourth brother completely put aside the shadow that Wu Yashi has brought to him, right?

Ke Jing was just thinking this when he saw their fourth brother hastily leaving a message towards him and his eldest brother, "Brother, fourth sister, you go find E Niang first, I will go back to Nansuo."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and ran towards Nansuo.

"No, Xiaosi, this."

Yinzhen pointed at Yinzhen who was running away, then turned to look at his fourth sister who looked enlightened, and finally turned his attention to Liang Jiugong who spoke the most.

Liang Jiugong smiled warmly at his eldest brother. He also understood that his eldest brother always liked to go astray. He was not on the same page as everyone else. He didn't say anything else. He just stretched out his arm and pointed at Chu Xiu Palace in the north.

road:

\Eldest Brother, Fourth Princess, let’s go to the Imperial Concubine quickly. Maybe the Emperor and His Royal Highness have already arrived.\

Unwilling to give up, Yinzhen glanced south again at Yinzhen, and saw that Yinzhen had already reached the turning point and ran eastward.

He just nodded and continued walking north with Fourth Sister and Liang Jiugong.

…

Nansuo—the courtyard where the fourth elder brother was assigned.

Aunt Li and the palace maid Li Xia were busy instructing the palace people to disinfect door frames and windows with spirits.

Su Peisheng released the little white-haired Jingba who had been locked in the room for a long time.

The little white-haired Jingba moved with Yinzhen from Chuxiu Palace to Nansuo.

In the past, it lived like an old dog here, going wherever it wanted. Because of the epidemic, Su Peisheng kept him in the house and had no chance to go out for a walk for nearly ten days. But he was bored.

broken.

As soon as he regained his freedom, little Jingba immediately jumped up and down on the bluestone floor in the front yard like a child, circling around Nanny Li and Li Xia.

Aunt Li was holding a copper basin in her hand. There was a lot of strong liquor in the warm water in the copper basin. She was holding the basin in her left hand, and with her right hand she was stirring up the wine in the copper basin and spreading it all over the front yard without turning her head.

He smiled at the palace maid Rikka beside him and said:

"God bless, this disaster is finally over."

Li Xia also held a copper basin in her hand. She gently pushed the little Jingba that was blocking her way away with her feet and let it run to the side to play. With a happy smile on her face, she said happily:

"Yes, I heard that Chuxiu Palace has been unblocked this morning. I think Fourth Brother has received the news and rushed over with the Emperor."

"There has been no smallpox in this palace for such a long time. I don't know who brought smallpox into the palace."

Trapped in Nansuo, with little information, Grandma Li gritted her teeth and said bitterly.

Rikka also nodded in agreement.

Just at this moment, little Jingba keenly smelled the smell of the shit-sweeper, and the dog's eyes like black pearls lit up instantly, "Woof woof woof woof -" and spread his legs like a joyful fart.

Run to the courtyard door.

After Li Xia and Aunt Li heard the dog barking, they turned to look at the door in confusion. When they saw the sweat running down their foreheads, their face was red, Si Age, who was panting heavily, crossed the threshold and ran in.

.

The little Jingba barked happily and jumped up and down to ask the scavenger to smooth its fur. Yinzhen didn't bother to pay attention to his pet dog. When he saw Aunt Li and Li Xia standing in the middle of the yard, he immediately walked two steps abreast.

Rushed in front of them.

Nanny Li and Li Xia were also shocked to see the fourth elder brother at this time. They didn't understand why the fourth elder brother didn't go to Chuxiu Palace and came to Nansuo instead.

Yinzhen's throat was dry from running, and he bent his upper body slightly, pressing his hands on his knees and breathing heavily. He looked at Aunt Li and Li Xia, swallowed with difficulty, moistened his throat and said:

"Mommy, sister Lixia, why did I, my mother-in-law, carry me from the side hall of Yonghe Palace to Chuxiu Palace to raise me?"

Seeing Brother Si being so anxious, Nanny Li and Li Xia thought something big had happened, but they never expected to hear such words. The two women standing side by side suddenly widened their eyes in shock.

"Clang!"

"Bang!"

With two clear and crisp sounds, the copper basin was taken off the hand, and the warm water mixed with strong liquor spilled all over the floor.

Su Peisheng, who was leading the eunuchs to sprinkle quicklime around the wall in the backyard to disinfect, heard the barking of dogs and the sound of copper basins falling from the front yard. He hurriedly ran to the front yard and saw the faces of Aunt Li and Li Xia turning pale.

Bai looked at Brother Si with trembling lips.
