Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 350 Persuasion
The fourth elder brother went back to the elder brother's office sullenly, and Zi Zhi Tongjian couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply lay on the bed and stared at the beam.

As soon as the emperor left, Concubine De hurriedly inquired about Li Chu's affairs, which made the fourth elder brother very angry.

Sneaky, there must be a conspiracy.

So he clearly knew what the emperor meant, implying that he wanted to make him the crown prince, but he didn't tell Concubine De.

The fourth elder brother turned over on the bed, looking very irritable.

The little eunuch who was close to him went up and asked: "My brother is unhappy, you must vent it out, don't hold it in your heart!"

The boy on the bed suddenly jumped up.

"Is it you, the spy that Er Niang sent by my side?"

"Not a slave, really not a slave!"

The little eunuch knelt down and begged for mercy, "The slave has always been serving my elder brother. If I hadn't followed my elder brother into the harem sometimes, I would have never seen the concubine de concubine at all!"

The fourth elder brother snorted, his face softened a little.

"I know it's not you, you are the most trusted servant by my side, if you dare... you will never be spared!"

The little eunuch got up from the ground with a smile, "If the slave dares to betray Elder Brother, Elder Brother will chop off the slave's head and use it as a chamber pot!"

In one sentence, the fourth elder brother couldn't help laughing.

"Then tell me, who is it?"

The little eunuch looked out the door, and lowered his voice to the fourth elder brother's ear, "Elder brother, you can keep your voice down so that people can hear it. I don't dare to talk nonsense. Now in the palace is the concubine Defei who is in charge of the harem. Elder brother only dialed in those people after Empress Concubine De concubine came to power and thought, probably it is right!"

He didn't dare to speak too clearly, for fear of being overheard and offending Concubine De.

The fourth elder brother has always been smart, so he must understand when it comes to this.

After waiting for a while, the fourth elder brother sighed.

"Forget it, Zuo is just those people. Even if we get them out, the new ones sent in won't be able to keep clean."

The little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother is right to think so! Empress Defei is your mother-in-law, so just watch, can she still harm you?"

Naturally, Concubine De will not harm him.

Although their mother and child are not close, he still has confidence in this fact that blood is thicker than water.

But it's hard to say whether it will harm others...

The fourth elder brother jumped up from the bed, "Come on, let's go back to the harem!"

After finishing speaking, he put on his shoes and ran outside, the little eunuch chased after him, "Brother, are you going back to Yonghe Palace?"

"No, go to Yikun Palace!"

In Yikun Palace, Chen Wenxin was sitting on the couch in a daze, while the fifth elder brother was playing on the carpet in a big red goldfish play lotus apron.

Bai Lu took a small blanket to cover Fifth Prince, and he didn't turn it over a few times before the blanket rolled to the side.

The fat thief lazily nestled aside, saw him push the blanket aside, picked up a corner of the blanket with his mouth, and covered him again.

The fifth elder brother giggled, and deliberately lifted the blanket, making the fat thief so busy that he was out of breath.

Chen Wenxin couldn't help laughing out loud.

"The bag is not good, bullying the fat thief."

The fat thief seemed to know that someone was backing him, so he simply lay down on the ground, sticking out his tongue on all fours.

The fifth elder brother was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed even more happily.

"Baobao doesn't bully fat thieves, Baobao covers fat thieves with a quilt."

He stretched out his little hands like lotus root joints, his fat little fingers grabbed the corner of the blanket, and slammed it on the fat thief.

As if the sky was falling, the fat thief's world was instantly darkened, and he let out a scream...

Then there was a burst of laughter in the silence, Chen Wenxin covered his stomach with laughter, and the fifth elder brother laughed so hard that his mouth drools.

When the small table rushed in, it was such a scene.

"Master, master?"

Chen Wenxin finally stopped laughing and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Si elder brother is asking to see you, it's just outside the palace gate, will the master see you?"

"Please come in."

In this world, perhaps only she and the fourth elder brother knew who the candidate for the crown prince was in the edict issued by the emperor behind the plaque.

This kind of feeling made Chen Wenxin no longer regard the fourth elder brother as a child, but as a friend who kept a secret together.

"Go and cut up the watermelon we grew in our backyard. Brother Si loves it."

Bai Lu gave instructions to the little eunuch outside, and then said, "Your maidservant, go and bring some of Si elder brother's favorite snacks."

When the fourth elder brother entered the room, a small figure rushed up and hugged his thigh!

"Fourth brother, fourth brother! You are here!"

The fifth elder brother's round eyes flickered, which made the fourth elder brother's heart soften.

"Yeah, does Baobao miss fourth brother?"

"Think about it, I've been thinking about it for a day."

The fourth elder brother suppressed a smile, only met in the morning, and he actually said that he missed himself for a day?
What a coaxing little bad bag!

He picked up the fifth elder brother, held it high, and walked towards Chen Wenxin.

He sat on the couch, and put the fifth elder brother on the couch, and the fifth elder brother crawled all over the couch with his buttocks sticking out.

This look looks so familiar...

The fourth elder brother looked at the carpet——

Well, the fifth elder brother is actually imitating the fat thief!

Chen Wenxin smiled and said, "Why are you here again? It's hot outside, let's eat some watermelon, it's chilled."

The watermelons cut into one-inch squares are neatly stacked in the crystal jar, which makes people's index fingers move when they look at them.

Next to the jar of watermelon were a few small plates, filled with his favorite snacks and fruits.

Unlike Concubine De who doesn't like to eat more snacks every time he goes to Yonghe Palace, every time he goes, there is only a cup of tea on the table.

This difference made him feel strangely uncomfortable.

He tasted a piece, and the sweetness entered his heart.

"Chen Erniang, I'm here...I have something to discuss with you."

He said and looked around.

Chen Wenxin understood what he meant, and ordered someone to carry the fifth elder brother down.

She retreated left and right again, and even Bai Lu retreated outside the door to listen to orders.

"what happened?"

The fourth elder brother stammered, "After bidding farewell to Huang Ama Yujia today, Er Niang... called me to Yonghe Palace."

If Concubine De asked him to come to Yonghe Palace, just to talk about the family life and enhance the relationship, the fourth elder brother would not have such a bitter face.

She asked: "What did Concubine De say to you? Look at how unhappy you look."

"She sent someone to stare at me to find out what books I've been reading recently. After knowing that those books are about the study of emperors governing a country, she wanted to find out what Emperor Amali was thinking."

Chen Wenxin raised his brows and let out an oh.

The fourth elder brother was surprised: "Isn't Chen Erniang surprised?"

"Why is this surprising? Erbeile has been deposed as the crown prince, and you have won the favor among all the elder brothers. It is reasonable for her to ask."

For such a big event as Li Chu, who can resist curiosity and not inquire?

The fourth elder brother was puzzled and said: "Huang Ama doesn't like others to fight for power and profit the most, and will use everything to the extreme. Especially the women in the harem, if Er Niang is like this, Huang Ama will definitely be angry if she knows it."

Chen Wenxin couldn't help holding his forehead, not knowing how to tell the fourth elder brother about this.

The fourth elder brother has been moved out of Chengqian Palace for so many years, even though he is now in elder brother's place, he is raised under the knee of Concubine De.

Why is the quarrel between mother and son getting bigger and bigger?

She had tried so hard to reconcile the relationship between their mother and child, but it was obviously in vain.

She thought for a while, and patiently explained to the fourth elder brother: "Concubine De is just asking, asking if the emperor wants to make you the crown prince. This is not a fight for power, it's caring about you, you think her too badly."

Seeing that the fourth elder brother was a little puzzled, she said again: "She is your mother-in-law. It is about whether you will become the prince or not. Shouldn't she ask? She sent someone to watch you, that is also caring about you. There are still the Emperor's people in Yikun Palace, Chen Erniang feels very happy."

The fourth elder brother was a little confused by what she said, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Chen Erniang, do you trust me, Erniang? Are you not afraid that she will control the harem while you are pregnant, which will be bad for you? "

Chen Wenxin burst out laughing.

"Are you worried about this?! I understand. You are worried that Concubine De has the ambition to become a queen mother and will take the opportunity to get rid of me?"

The fourth elder brother had to admit that Chen Wenxin's guess was not wrong.

"You, you, it seems that being young and old is not a good thing, you just think too much!"

Her blame was full of emotion.

The fourth elder brother was so excited when he heard what Concubine De said. On the one hand, the relationship between him and Concubine De had always been at odds, which made him misunderstand Concubine De's concern.

On the other hand, concern is chaos.

He was too worried that Concubine De would take advantage of the time when the emperor was not in the palace and use the opportunity to manipulate the harem to hurt her.

So no matter what he refused to tell Concubine De, the emperor's true intentions.

How could Chen Wenxin not be moved?

"Don't worry, Concubine De is not such a sinister and cunning person. I've known it since I was always here and lived in the West Side Hall of Yonghe Palace."

"She is also like an ordinary concubine. She is inevitably a little jealous, but she has a good heart. Don't you see how Concubine Tong tormented her palace people before, Ding Guiren and Zhang Guiren, who hasn't suffered from her?"

"But Concubine De has never treated me like this. As an outsider, I believe her like this. You are her own son. If you doubt her like this, how sad she must be."

The fourth elder brother has a rebellious mentality, "Chen Erniang doesn't know! She doesn't even know whether I like sweet or bitter, she doesn't care about me at all!"

He could only say this in front of Chen Wenxin, but in front of others, he would not be able to say it out loud.

This is like a child acting like a baby with his mother. He has grown up and definitely can't say it.

In this regard, Chen Wenxin has no way to speak for Concubine De.

The mother and son spent too little time together, and they were prone to conflicts. Concubine De didn't have the time to observe what he liked to eat.

Such a small detail, in the eyes of the sensitive fourth elder brother, is the evidence that Concubine De doesn't love him.

What about Concubine De?

In fact, Concubine De will also be sad in her heart. She thinks that the fourth elder brother likes herself more than her mother-in-law...

This mother and son, Chen Wenxin let out a long sigh.
