"What's going on in front?" Hong Li took a few steps.
He found that he had arrived at the martial arts practice field.
He couldn't help but stick his head out to look.
"Master, you can't go. That must be the martial arts instructor teaching the other brothers and young masters riding and shooting." Xiao Gaozi saw that something was wrong and wanted to stop him.
But it was too late.
Hong Li had been cooped up in his room for more than two months.
In fact, the injury on his leg wasn't as serious as it was said to be. It was his mother who insisted on making it more serious. What could he do? He was only a teenager. No matter how sensible he was, he couldn't endure holding it in for so long.
Even if he couldn't try it now, he could at least take a look.
"Fifth Elder Brother's movements are very good."
As soon as Hong Li stepped into the martial arts practice field, he saw the head martial arts instructor praising someone. This was a normal scene, but he felt uncomfortable.
He had a good relationship with Hong Zhou, and the two of them often spent time together.
However, he didn't visit him during this period of time when he was recuperating. Later, he found out that something had happened to his mother, which was reasonable. Then, he heard that he was now raised under the Empress's name.
However, he hadn't been on the jade disk yet.
Hong Li listened to his mother.
He couldn't let Hong Zhou get on the Empress's jade disk.
That would be troublesome.
He grew up in the palace, so he naturally knew what kind of trouble it was.
He didn't care. Hong Zhou had always played behind him. He didn't think it was a big deal, but …
The martial arts instructor who taught Hong Zhou was originally his.
"Fifth Brother."
Hong Zhou raised his head and saw Hong Li walking over. If it was in the past, he would naturally greet him with a smile, but this time, he only greeted him faintly on horseback.
"Fourth Brother."
Hong Li was already a little dissatisfied with his martial arts instructor teaching Hong Zhou. Seeing his attitude towards him, he was even more displeased. He walked closer and saw that Hong Zhou hadn't dismounted. He frowned and looked at him. "Fifth Brother, you had good skills just now."
It wasn't that Hong Zhou didn't want to get off the horse. His height hadn't even started to twitch yet, and it was already difficult for him to get on the horse. He needed the martial arts instructor's help. Of course, it was the same for him to get off the horse. Seeing Hong Li come over, he thought about it and didn't ask the martial arts instructor to help him get down.
"Fourth Brother, you flatter me. How can I compare to Fourth Brother?" What happened during this period of time had a great impact on Hong Zhou's state of mind. His mother had always been on good terms with Imperial Concubine Xi, but when she was wrongly accused, no one stepped forward to help her. As a result, his impression of his Fourth Brother, who used to blindly follow his lead, also changed.
Er Niang was demoted to Chang Zai, and he was temporarily raised under the Empress's name. Some people said that if he became the Empress's son, his status would reach the heavens in a single step. Hong Zhou felt that this might be able to save his Er Niang.
Hong Li felt that Hong Zhou's words seemed to be mocking him for getting injured while riding a horse. He turned his head to look at the martial arts instructor next to him and finally couldn't help but say, "Fifth Brother's martial arts instructor has changed."
At this moment, Hong Zhou also felt that Hong Li's words were different. Martial arts instructor?
"Fourth Brother, don't misunderstand." After thinking about it, Hong Zhou dismounted from his horse. After landing, he explained, "Fourth Brother is recuperating from his injuries. My Martial Arts Instructor injured his hand a few days ago, so he can't teach me for the time being. I'll be using Fourth Brother's Martial Arts Instructor for the time being."
"Is that so?" Hong Li smiled and raised his hand to touch Hong Zhou's horse. "Fourth Brother, I haven't exercised for a long time. I just saw Fifth Brother's equestrian skills. How about we have a horse race today?"
"Master …"
"You shut up." Xiao Gaozi was just about to speak when Hong Li glared at him. He only looked at Hong Zhou.
"Fourth Brother, your injury." Hong Zhou's expression was awkward.
Hong Li directly pointed at the martial arts instructor. "Bring my horse over." He didn't intend to give Hong Zhou a chance to speak.
"Third Elder Brother, over there, Fourth Elder Brother is going to race with Fifth Elder Brother."
Hong Shi was already old enough to leave the palace and build a manor, but his Emperor Ah Ma had just ascended the throne and wasn't busy with his affairs, so he still lived in the palace. When he heard the little eunuch beside him say this, he just casually glanced in the direction of the martial arts field.
"It's just a horse race, let them …"
Hiss — —
A loud horse cry attracted everyone's attention, but they could only see two equally tall and strong horses fiercely colliding with each other.
Hong Shi's pupils shrank.
"Ah — —"
"Quickly, quickly summon the imperial physician."
The martial arts field was suddenly in a mess.
"How is it over there?" Siyang held a toy and teased Fu Pei, who was lying on the bed. Seeing the little thing's silly grin, she also laughed.
Xiang Lan slightly lowered her head and said, "It's already a mess now. Fourth Elder Brother and Fifth Elder Brother were racing. I don't know why Fourth Elder Brother's horse suddenly went crazy and hit Fifth Elder Brother's horse."
"But Fifth Elder Brother's body is agile and jumped off the horse at the critical moment. Although he fell, it wasn't serious. But Fourth Elder Brother …"
After teasing for a while, Siyang stopped and looked at Xiang Lan, indicating for her to continue.
"Fourth Elder Brother is also pitiful. He was squeezed between two horses. I heard that his injury is not light and his situation is not optimistic."
"What a pitiful child." Siyang sighed.
Xiang Lan lowered her head even more.
Siyang glanced at her and sat up straight. "You think I'm cruel."
"Ah." Xiang Lan raised her head and looked into Siyang's eyes. She quickly knelt down and said hurriedly, "No, I didn't mean that. They brought this upon themselves. I'm just worried that our actions were too big and would be discovered by the Emperor. Now that your uncle has resigned, many people in the palace are watching you, Your Highness."
"Even if the Nian family is still around, I'm still the target of their attention."
Siyang raised her hand. "Get up."
"You don't have to worry. Since I've done it, I've already arranged everything. Those people, do they really think that I don't have a temper? Since they dared to attack me during my labor, they should be aware of this."
Hearing this, Xiang Lan looked at Siyang's expression and felt a little relieved. She also hated those people. If her master hadn't been alert at that time, it would have been as they wished.
That day, the news came out.
The imperial physician said that Fourth Elder Brother's leg could not be saved.
That's right, it was the right leg that he broke more than two months ago.
Fourth Elder Brother was also unlucky. He had to go horse racing and was hit by two horses. His right leg was sandwiched in the middle and half of the bones were broken. There was no other way except to amputate his leg. Otherwise, his life would be in danger.
"Didn't she say that my son was seriously injured? She got what she wanted this time. "
Siyang smiled faintly and muttered to himself after hearing the news in Yi Kun Palace.
The aftermath of this matter was much more serious. Yin? When he heard that Hongli's leg was going to be amputated, he almost lost his balance. He actually had high hopes for this son of his. After all, Hongli's Kangxi had praised him.
Now that his son, who he had high hopes for, was crippled, how could he not feel distressed? However, it was useless.
The furious Yin? He directly punished everyone present at the martial arts practice field that day. Hong Zhou bore the brunt of it. Yin? He personally whipped him and grounded him. He was not allowed to come out without a decree.
There was also another person who suffered an unexpected calamity.
"His Majesty said that Third Elder Brother is the elder brother, but he watched his younger brothers get injured during horse racing. After scolding him, he also asked Third Elder Brother to choose a day to leave the palace. Third Elder Brother's residence has not been repaired. He doesn't know where to live if he goes out now."
"What are you worried about? He won't let Tangtang sleep on the streets." This time, it was killing two birds with one stone. Madam Niotuolu was no longer a threat, and Madam Li did not escape. No, there was still one more bird. This time, even if the Empress wanted to, she did not dare to show it. Fifth Elder Brother would not be able to get Yin for at least a few years. Qing Yan.
Siyang tapped his fingertips and looked at Fu Hui, who was stumbling over. He bent down and picked him up, kissed him on the cheek, and put him on the kang bed. Fu Pei had just woken up. The two brothers looked at each other silently.
"The two little brothers look so alike," Xiang Lan said in surprise.
"What's so strange about that? They are brothers."
"Sixth Elder Brother and Seventh Elder Brother are only two years apart. Will they look more and more like twins?"
"They won't." Siyang shook her head. Looking at her youngest son's appearance, he would probably be a little chubby boy. He had to eat two wet nurses for a meal. This little thing must not be a little rice bucket.
"What are you talking about? You look so happy."
Siyang turned and saw Yin Qing Yan. He stepped in.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Chenqie was just telling Xiang Lan that Fu Hui and Fu Pei are indeed brothers. They really look alike." Si Yang calmly stood up and saluted. She pulled Yin Qian along. She sat down and said.
Xiang Lan carefully glanced at Yin Qing Yan. Seeing that his expression did not change, she quietly relaxed.
Yin Qing Yan? Looking at his two sons on the kang bed, Fu Hui saw that he was still on the kang bed and bowed crookedly.
"Emperor … Ah Ma."
"Fu Hui is good." She touched his son's head. Yin Qing Yan? She closed her eyes, and the knot in her chest eased a little.
"Your Majesty has been tired these days. Have a cup of ginseng tea." Siyang offered the ginseng tea that had just been brought over.
He took the teacup and felt the warmth on it. Yin Qing Yan? He was not in a hurry to drink. He held Siyang's hand and looked at her gently. "I haven't come to see Yao 'er for a long time."
Ever since Nian Yaoyao's accident, he had not come to her Yi Kun Palace. If it were not for her title of noble consort and the two younger ones, who knew what the harem would do. Just like that, Madame Li's words were full of sarcasm. After Siyang used her identity to teach her a lesson, she found out that Yin Qing Yan? When there was no movement, she tucked her tail between her legs again.
Siyang smiled and shook her head. "Your Majesty is busy every day. How can you take care of me for everything? However, Your Majesty's health is more important. You don't have to work too hard."
Hearing that Siyang did not mention Fourth Elder Brother, Yin Qing Yan felt better. In fact, he had always subconsciously not wanted to come to Yi Kun Palace. He resisted in his heart, but the concubines all mentioned Fourth Elder Brother's matter. It made him feel annoyed, so he finally came here.
Yin? Staring at Siyang's still beautiful face, he couldn't help but ask, "Yao 'er, do you blame me?"
"Hm?" Siyang looked at him in confusion. She laughed and said, "Why would I blame Your Majesty? I already said that I know Your Majesty is busy with state affairs. I only hate that I can't help Your Majesty solve your problems. How could I blame you? "
No, that's not it.
"Sigh." Yin Qing Yan shook his head and drank the ginseng tea in his hand in one gulp.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Yao 'er, I'll rest here tonight."
It was night.
The moon was as cool as water.
Under the lampshade, the candlelight emitted a weak, warm light. When it shone on the plain bed curtain, a slender and beautiful figure appeared. With a slight shake, a slender and soft hand reached out from the bed curtain and gently lifted it, revealing her face.
After removing the flag, her long hair was let down. Even though the light was dim, one could still see the woman's beautiful appearance. She stood up and put on her shoes. Instead of moving, she turned back to look at the bed.
There was another person lying on the bed. At this moment, he was sleeping soundly. Her movements just now didn't wake him up.
After carefully covering the curtain, Siyang stood up and picked up the candlestick on the shelf.
The candlelight flickered, casting a shadow on the ground of her still graceful figure, even though she was only wearing a thin layer of clothing.
She walked lightly to the table. The incense in the incense burner was extinguished. Siyang opened the lid and poured a cup of water into it. After seeing that it was completely soaked, she closed the lid again. She put the candlestick back to its original place, took off her shoes, and lay back on the bed.
Siyang versus Yin? After looking at the face for a moment, she turned her back to Siyang.
She took over Madam Nian's life, but that didn't mean that she accepted everything. Life was her own.
The Emperor spent the night in Yi Kun Palace, destroying the rumors that Nian Yaoyao had fallen and that the Imperial Consort would lose favor.
Furthermore, the Emperor promoted Nian Yaoyao, who had already resigned, to a first-class duke.
No one objected to this. These years, Nian Yaoyao did indeed have outstanding military achievements. Now that he was injured and retired, he handed over all his military power. As a first-class duke, he had no real power. Thus, the conferment was unusually harmonious.
Now that Third Elder Brother was scolded and chased out of the palace, Fourth Elder Brother was crippled, and Fifth Elder Brother was disliked by the Emperor. Even though Sixth Elder Brother and Seventh Elder Brother were older, some people still cared about them.
"Master, aren't we too eye-catching now?" Xiang Lan was worried.
"Whoever thinks we're eye-catching and wants to pull us out, feel free to do so." Siyang was waiting for those women to make a move. Otherwise, how could she fight back? As for Yin? … …
Soon, he wouldn't be able to take care of himself.
Yin? After inheriting the throne, he had been eliminating dissidents and consolidating his position. Other than Prince Yi, who stood on his side, the other brothers who had fought for the throne with him all had their own fates.
