Chapter 2060
As soon as the Ninth Prince walked out of the gate, he ran into the Fifth Prince.
The Fifth Prince came here to inquire because he was worried that the Ninth Prince would be scolded when he met the Emperor.
The Ninth Prince said, "I was just about to go look for the Fifth Brother. You came just in time."
He welcomed the Fifth Prince in, and the two brothers went straight to the living room.
"Did Khan Ama scold you?"
The Fifth Prince asked straight to the point.
The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "I did scold him, but he didn't seem angry. He just scolded me because he saw that I was being lazy. But there is no need to be diligent in the Lifanyuan. The princes who take this shift will not arrive in the capital until after the Mid-Autumn Festival at the earliest."
The Fifth Prince hesitated for a moment and said, "What about Prince Xin's Mansion? Didn't Khan Ama say anything else?"
The Ninth Prince said, "What is there to say? I am in the right. I am helping my relatives and I am in the right. There is no reason for you to teach me a lesson..."
After hearing this, the Fifth Prince heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Just don't let you get involved with them. The Blue Banner is in chaos right now, so let the Eighth Prince do whatever he wants."
The Ninth Prince said, "Well, well, I won't get involved. I only have a few assistants, why should I worry about that?"
He told the capable ones among the people that they should work hard, and those who were not capable should just stay put.
As a master, he does not expect to exploit his subordinates, nor does he want to work like a slave for them.
The Ninth Prince didn't like to talk about this, so he just said that he wanted to invite the Queen Mother to visit the manor.
"I've been staying in the North Garden for so long that I'm tired of seeing the scenery. It's not too hot or too cold now. I want to take my eighteenth brother and the children out to play for a day, but it's hard to bear to leave the Empress alone. How about you, Fifth Brother, ask Khan Ama for permission and let us take the Empress out to play for a day?"
After hearing this, the Fifth Prince shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate. The Empress Dowager is of noble status. Your place is not a villa, but a farm. There is not even a place to stay."
The Ninth Prince said, "What about setting up a yurt? Ask someone to set it up in advance, and then roast a sheep and steam some yurts..."
"Yurt..."
The Fifth Prince said seriously, "The Mongolian yurt of the Lifanyuan?"
"Well, well... lend me a few more. The Empress Dowager will take care of it. The children will have a place to rest when they are tired..." said the Ninth Prince.
The Fifth Prince was moved.
In the thirty-seventh year, he was in the team that accompanied the Empress Dowager on her northern tour. Naturally, he knew that the Empress Dowager missed her hometown.
Now that the Queen Mother is old, it is not easy for her to travel back and forth, but it should be fine for her to travel nearby.
"Don't tell the Empress Dowager yet. She will definitely not allow it. She doesn't like to cause us trouble. I will go to the Imperial Court to ask for permission first..."
The Fifth Prince made a decision immediately.
It’s only about ten miles in total, not hard.
There are villages all over this place, but no civilians, so it is easy to deploy defenses.
The Ninth Prince said, "Don't worry, it's fine before the Dragon Boat Festival. After the Dragon Boat Festival, it will be hot and it will be difficult to move."
The Fifth Prince was a little excited and said, "I will go to the Imperial Court right now. I hope Khan Ama will be easy to talk to today."
I saw my son in the morning and gave him a lot of grace.
The Ninth Prince thought about what Kangxi had said to him, and he was also a person who couldn't bear to see others having fun, so he said, "Fifth Brother, when you go and ask for permission, don't just ask for the Imperial Grandmother, but also ask Khan Ama. Khan Ama is very busy and certainly can't spare the time, but he doesn't like to watch others having fun either."
The Fifth Prince hesitated after hearing this, leaned forward and whispered, "What if the Khan agrees? If that happens, we won't be able to have fun anymore."
The Ninth Prince blinked and said, "Only look at the bright side. If Khan Ama really goes out, maybe the Empress will be able to relax for a day."
The Fifth Prince thought about it and picked up a piece of jujube flower cake, then stood up and said, "I'll go to the garden now..."
The Ninth Prince personally escorted him out and watched the Fifth Prince stride away.
When the Fifth Prince arrived at the door of Qingxi Study, the chief eunuch who served the guests came with his men to clear the dining table.
The window of the study was open. After finishing his meal, Kangxi was standing in front of the window with a teacup in his hand when he saw the Fifth Prince coming back.
Kangxi was a little surprised.
He thought about the follow-up reactions of summoning his sons today, but he did not expect that someone would come back, nor did he expect that this person was the Fifth Prince.
He ordered Liang Jiugong, "Call the Fifth Prince in!"
Liang Jiugong went out and brought people in.
"Khan Ama..."
The Fifth Prince had a flattering look on his face.
Kangxi looked at the familiar expression and snorted.
At this time, it can be seen that they are brothers. Their guilty and rogue nature is similar to that of the Ninth Prince.
"It's the middle of the day, why are you here instead of taking a break?"
Kangxi asked.
The Fifth Prince said honestly, "The Ninth Lady's farm has poultry, pigs, sheep, a vegetable garden, a cave house, and a rice mill. I want to invite the Empress Dowager to go there to relax so that she won't be bored in the garden."
Kangxi frowned and said, "I heard that Lao Jiu wanted to take the children out to play, and you are also tempted?"
Ambition, I just said it was twenty-five, not fifteen, but is this something an adult can do?
I was still thinking about bringing the Queen Mother over there.
Don't know the importance.
The Fifth Prince nodded and said, "Well, I remembered that when the Empress Dowager was on tour in the thirty-seventh year, she was delighted to see the beautiful scenery of the grasslands. So I thought of borrowing the land from the Ninth Prince's wife, setting up a few yurts, roasting a few sheep, and arranging some singing and dancing to satisfy the Empress Dowager's cravings."
Kangxi: "..."
"It would be even better if Khan Ama could spare half a day to go with us..."
The Fifth Prince thought about the Ninth Prince's reminder and added a sentence.
Kangxi thought of Zhuangzi in Baiwang Mountain, Shushu.
He glanced at the Fifth Prince.
The Fifth Prince will not attract too much attention when traveling on behalf of the Queen Mother.
But if the Fifth Prince invites himself to travel, then others will have to think more.
There was only sincerity on the Fifth Prince's face.
Hey……
Confused and not very smart.
Fortunately, everyone else knew his character and did not treat him as an opponent, otherwise they would have definitely tricked him.
Kangxi waved his hand and said, "I don't have time..."
As for the Empress Dowager, although the Ninth Princess has moved to Haidian, she is not in good health and it is not convenient for her to always accompany the Empress Dowager.
It would be nice if the Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince and their wives prepared well and spent a day with the Empress Dowager to show their filial piety.
Kangxi pondered and said, "You have chosen a date, tell the Seventh Master in advance and ask him to arrange for people to go there and set up defenses, so as not to cause any disturbance."
The Fifth Prince smiled happily and said, "My son obeys your order. Thank you, Father Khan..."
He came and left in a hurry, going to the North Garden to see the Queen Mother.
Watching the Fifth Prince disappear through the Little East Gate, Kangxi said to Liang Jiugong, "There is nothing better than a heart as broad as a body as fat as a heart as broad as a heart."
I wonder how many people are confused and how many are just guessing about what happened this morning.
As a result, each of these two brothers was more careless than the other.
Liang Jiugong did not answer the call.
If these two brothers really have ulterior motives, then the emperor will be the one who is troubled.
One has the Queen Mother and Korchin behind him, and the other has the Tenth Prince behind him. It will be even more chaotic then...

North Garden, Queen Mother's Palace.
It was a bit surprising when the Fifth Prince came in.
Several little girls.
Not only Niguzhu was there, but also the two sisters Tana and Hailan.
Several little girls were sitting on the kang eating, but when they saw the Fifth Prince come in, they put down their chopsticks and stood up.
"Amma..."
"Fifth Uncle..."
The Fifth Prince greeted the Queen Mother and asked, "Why is it so lively here?"
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "It was Niguzhu who brought her two sisters to have vegetarian meals with me."
There are vegetarian wraps and vegetarian porridge.
The Fifth Prince leaned over to take a look, and his eyes fell on a plate.
I am a fan of sauerkraut.
"There are still pickled vegetables at this time? Is it a gift from my ninth brother's wife?"
The Fifth Prince said.
The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, saying, "It's pickled after the beginning of spring, and it tastes just right."
This vegetable is common in the palace in winter, but it is gone in March.
It just so happened that the Empress Dowager loved this dish, so Shushu asked someone to pickle some.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince had something to say, Nanny Bai called a few little princesses to come down.
The Queen Mother looked at the Fifth Prince, feeling uneasy, and asked, "Why are you here at this time? Did Tara say anything to bring the Second Prince to Haidian?"
The emperor avoided noise and attended to government affairs, and all the princes and ministers followed suit.
The Fifth Lady is a protective person and she might not be willing to let the child stay in the capital.
The Fifth Prince shook his head and said, "She didn't say anything... She's already scared..."
He recalled what happened in the morning and said, "Grandmother, Khan Ama has given me grace and let me choose whether to send my second prince to the palace to study. I want to do it."
The Queen Mother heard this and said, "If you want to send it, send it. I will ask someone to take care of it."
Even if you don't accept the title, you have to establish yourself.
The Fifth Lady was resentful and disrespectful to the Fifth Prince. If she were really asked to raise the little prince, there would probably be a rift between father and son in the future.
The Empress Dowager sympathized with the Fifth Lady, but she would not bypass the Fifth Prince.
The Fifth Prince said, "No need. When the time comes, I will ask Khan Ama for mercy and let him live with Hongsheng so that the brothers can take care of each other."
The Queen Mother nodded and said, "That's good. The two little brothers grew up together, so they have some affection for each other..."
Hongsheng is a simple and carefree person. He does not do well in his studies, but he has a very good relationship with people.
The Fifth Prince said ashamedly: "It is my unfilial grandson who has caused the Imperial Grandmother to worry."
The Queen Mother looked at the Fifth Prince and said, "I have nothing to do anyway, why should I worry about it? Don't be afraid of small setbacks. No one's life is smooth sailing. What's in the past is in the past..."
At this point, she remembered that Tana looked much more well-behaved today than last time, and said, "Guarjia is not bad, you should rest assured..."
The Fifth Prince said, "There's nothing to worry about..."
He glanced at the brand new purse tied on his belt; it was embroidered by the Guwalgiya family.
The two of them are now in the Haidian Prince's Residence, and with Tana, they look like a family of three.
The Fifth Prince was in a rather weird mood. He recalled the situation when Princess Liu just pointed him out, and also recalled his wedding.
Guaerjia has the dignity of the Fifth Lady and the cuteness of Princess Liu.
The Fifth Prince didn't want to think about it anymore. He felt that something was not good about himself and that he was easily bored with the old and easily pleased with the new, so he mentioned the matter of going to Haidian.
"Laojiu's farm is very complete. It has everything. When we go there, we can pick vegetables and feed chickens and ducks..."
The Fifth Prince hid in the yurt and said nothing.
That was a surprise prepared for the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "You guys go on your own. I won't bother with you and cause you trouble."
When the Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince travel, they only need to bring their own guards and imperial guards.
If the Queen Mother wanted to go with her, she would have to report to the Guard Office and the palace would arrange for someone to go there.
The fifth prince said, "My grandson went to the garden just now. He asked Khan Ama for permission and Khan Ama agreed. Khan Ama also wanted to go, but he was not free..."
