The prince only allowed me to have a baby, so the pressure is a bit high!

Chapter 60 The twins want to go to the Shangshufang

That night, Bu Erhe told Yin Reng his thoughts, and Yin Reng nodded to show that he had received them.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter. I don’t know what’s going on, but this summer is very hot. It’s only June, and the Forbidden City is already too hot to stay in.

Yinreng said, "The Emperor has decided to leave for Changchun Garden in three days. You can pack your things tomorrow. We will live in the garden to the north not far from Changchun Garden. It is connected to the gardens of the Fourth, Ninth, and Tenth Brothers. It will be more convenient for you to talk to your Fourth Brother's wife when you want to."

Buerhe: "In this case, it will be more convenient for me to talk about this matter tomorrow. After all, my ninth and tenth brothers haven't gotten married yet. It would be inconvenient for my fourth brother to go there with his young concubine, right?"

Yinreng: "Don't worry, I won't forget what you told me. I know you have a good relationship with Fourth Brother's wife, but there's no need to talk about it all the time. If you continue like this, be careful that Jingyi will get jealous one day."

Buerhe squinted at Yinreng, then after a while slowly leaned over and nestled her whole body in Yinreng's arms, her almond-shaped eyes full of spring, "Master, are you jealous too?"

Yinreng's originally relaxed body suddenly tensed up. The young man was full of fire, and the slightest provocation had him on the verge of losing control. "You'd better get off quickly. Didn't you say you wanted to recuperate for two years before considering pregnancy? Is this the dangerous period you mentioned? If you don't get off now, I won't be able to hold it back."

Buerhe slowly approached Yinreng's ear and blew gently into it: "If you can't bear it, then don't bear it."

One sentence completely ignited the fire. Yinreng said no more, but pursed his lips and hugged Buerhe, then quickly stood up, strode to the big bed, put Buerhe on the bed, and could no longer hold back and cover him.

Several layers of mandarin duck quilts are covered with red waves. I can hear the golden hairpins clasping and clicking.

The next day, Bull and the other two were awakened by the whispering of two little kids. The conversation was as follows:

Jingyi: "Mother is so lazy. The sun is already shining on her butt, but she hasn't gotten up yet. Today she is a lazy pig."

Hongye: "Sister, you can't say that about Mother. Mother is just lazy and doesn't get up from bed occasionally. Calling her a lazy pig is inappropriate. At best, she can only be called a lazy cat. And Mother is an adult, so she should be called a big lazy cat."

Buerhe hid behind the tent, his face flushed red. In his heart, he was whipping Yinreng with a small whip, but he said gently, "Tangyuan, Yuebing, you are outside. Is Aunt Qi'er here too?"

The twins' voices suddenly stopped, and then the sound of two children running became closer and closer. With a "swish", a corner of the tent was lifted from the bottom, and then two little heads appeared: "Mother" "Mother."

After Buer and Wenrou responded, the curtain was completely opened, and Qi'er appeared in front of the mother and her two children with two little palace maids, having prepared toiletries.

Qi'er: "Master, do you want to wash up? It's already 1:00 AM."

When he heard the time of Chenshi, Buerhe realized that he had indeed gotten up late today. However, shouldn't the twins be studying in the study in the front yard at this time?

Buerhe signaled for his servants to help him get dressed and wash up, then said to the twins, "Why didn't you go to study today? Don't you usually go to the front yard?"

Hongye wanted to open his mouth, but Jingyi held up her little hand. "Let me tell you, mother, because my brother and I want to go to the Shangshufang to study! I heard that the teachers there are all world-renowned scholars and know a lot."

After hearing his daughter's answer, Buerhe turned to Hongye and asked, "What does the eldest prince say?"

Hongye felt embarrassed. To be honest, it was his brother and sister who had caused this trouble. "Mother, it's mainly because my son and I usually study together in the study in the front yard. It feels a bit boring like this every day. I heard from my father before that there are many people studying together in the Shangshufang in the palace, not only uncles but also cousins. We are curious and want to study there. And what my sister said is not wrong. The teacher there is the one my father praised and called a great scholar."

Buerhe's hair was already combed at this time. She waved her hand and didn't let the palace maid put on any extra head ornaments for her. She was not going out today, so no one would say anything if she relaxed a little in Yuqing Palace.

She squatted down and pulled the twins in front of her: "When you made this decision, did you ask for leave from your husband?"

The twins answered in unison: "Mother, yes, the master has agreed."

Buerhe: "Good, you're right to do things thoroughly and consider both the past and the future. Mother commends you for not letting your own willfulness lead you to neglect Mr. and make him wait for you in vain. Mother asks you to prepare a gift for Mr. later as an apology for not coming today. Can you do that?"

Hongye and Jingyi looked at each other and answered loudly to Buerhe: "Mother, we can do it."

Buerhe: "Okay, let's talk about going to the Shangshufang next. You should know that the emperor has previously stipulated that only the princes and their companions are allowed to enter the Shangshufang. Of course, since Hongye is the eldest of the grandchildren and has not yet reached the age, only the princes and their companions are present in the Shangshufang at this time.

Next, let’s talk about this. Your royal grandfather has also stipulated that the princes in the Shangshufang must be at least six years old to go to school. You are only three years old now, and there is still half a year away from your birthday. This age is definitely not in line with your royal grandfather’s requirements.

Finally, I want to tell you that the teachers in the Shangshufang are indeed famous teachers and scholars, but your Royal Grandfather has also stipulated that the daily learning content must be read 120 times, memorized 120 times, and copied 120 times. Finally, only those who pass the teacher's inspection can move on to the next chapter. Your Royal Grandfather will also conduct random checks during this period. If you forget or remember it incorrectly, you will be punished.

You are still young, your bones are very soft, and you are still in the development stage. You definitely cannot hold a pen. So when you go there, you can only read and recite every day, and you have to recite it back and forth 120 times a day. Are you sure you can accept it by then?

You should know that you can decide whether to go in, but your grandfather has the final say on whether to come out. Have you thought it through now? Tell mother, do you still want to go to the Shangshufang?"

Jingyi was still digesting the bad news that Buerhe had told her a hundred and twenty times. Hongye had already figured it out, but he asked uncertainly, "Is it really a hundred and twenty times? Not a single less?"

Buerhe sighed. She didn't want to discourage the children's enthusiasm for learning, but this was the reality of the Qing Dynasty princes' studies, wasn't it? "Your father will be back by lunchtime. After all, my mother has never studied in the Shangshufang, so this is all hearsay. It would be best if someone with experience studying in the Shangshufang could tell you the details. Then you can ask your father directly and see what he says!"

Okay, now I’m asking you, have you had breakfast? I want to have breakfast now, is there anyone who wants to join me?

Jingyi responded quickly: "I, I, I, mother, I want to go with you. I haven't had enough breakfast today, so I've been waiting for you here with my brother. Now I'm a little hungry."

After hearing this, Buerhe said seriously, "Don't do this next time. Eat when you're hungry. You don't have to wait for mother. You're still young and growing. You can't starve. Do you hear me?"

After saying that, she glanced at Hongye on the side, and Hongye nodded with a red face.

Bu Erhe: "Okay, okay, let's stop talking. Let's go have dinner together and see what delicious food your aunt Qi'er prepared this morning." After saying that, he happily walked towards the main hall, holding someone's hand.

The mother and her two children had breakfast together. The twins then reviewed their lessons in the main courtyard, then happily played with the toys their uncles had given them. Buerhe then began directing the servants to pack their belongings. They would be staying in Changchun Garden for at least two or three months, so they had quite a bit to bring.

She also remembered that her parents' family also had a farm near Changchun Garden, so she could send an invitation in advance to invite her family to get together. Since she married into the palace, she had only returned to the Ulanara Mansion twice, and she had not seen her mama this year. She missed her mama a little.

It was different when I arrived at Changchun Garden. After all, it was not the palace, and the rules were much more relaxed. Whether someone came from Ulanara's mansion or I went out to the farm myself, it would be more convenient than in the palace.

Oh, by the way, he should bring more gifts. He has never met any of the children born in the Ulanara family in recent years. This time he can get to know them and let the children feel the love of their aunt.

Also, the twins had always heard of Nakchu and Guo Luomafa, but had never seen them in person. This was a good opportunity to take the twins to meet their brothers and father.

At lunchtime, not only did Yinreng return, he also brought along the Fourth Prince Yinzhen. Without the Fourth Lady present, it was inconvenient for Buerhe to dine together, so she set up another table in the flower hall.

As for Jingyi, because she was still young and they had questions to ask Yinreng, and since his fourth brother happened to be there today, Buerhe arranged for the twins to have dinner together.

At the banquet, the twins indeed asked about the rules of the Shangshufang.

No matter how smart a child is, adults can still see through him at a glance. As soon as the twins started talking, the two brothers knew what they wanted to know. However, it is normal for children to be curious about the Shangshufang. They had seen many of their younger brothers behave like this when they were young.

The two brothers looked at each other. The Fourth Prince started it first. When he entered the Shangshufang, the rules had already been systematized and there were almost no changes from now, so it was more useful for reference for the twins.

Yinzhen: "From the age of six, I had to study in school. Every morning, I went to the upper study at 6: AM and finished my classes at : PM. I continued to study regardless of the cold or heat. The only days off were New Year's Day, the Emperor's birthday, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, and my birthday. I had to read and copy the text times a day, and I could not finish until I had recited it correctly."

Hongye hadn't expected it to be just as his mother had said. It was even scarier than what his mother had said. Didn't he see Jingyi's mouth beside him open into an O shape, not moving for a long time? She was just terrified.

Yinzhen smiled and said, "That's not all. Usually, the teacher will require that we finish the day's homework in the morning. If we can't finish it, we can only do it after school. Because starting at 4:00 PM, we have to learn languages ​​and horseback riding and archery. Of course, we have to learn the six arts, but for me, the prince of the Qing Dynasty, the most important things are languages ​​and horseback riding and archery. I grew up on horseback, so I must not forget my roots."

Even Hongye's mouth opened wide now. "After a whole day, do you still have time to rest? Won't your brain be tired?"

Yinzhen: "Tired, of course I wouldn't be tired, but we're fine, we're all studying together. The teacher is dealing with more than a dozen people, and everyone's progress is different. Those who learn faster can take it a little easier. Your father was the one who was really tired back then, without any rest time."

Upon hearing this, the twins turned to look at their father. Yinreng didn't say anything, but raised his eyebrows to signal He Zhu to take out his previous schedule for the twins to check.

In fact, he had prepared for this a long time ago. The twins are smart children, and smart children are sometimes prone to being proud and complacent. Look, the things he prepared in advance came in handy today, didn't they?

Hongye and Jingyi put their little heads together to check, and they could hear occasional gasps in the middle, which were sounds of shock and fear. Such sounds made Yinzhen curious.

He is a few years younger than the prince, and his enlightenment was the same as that of normal children, at the age of four or five. I heard that the prince had already started his enlightenment when he was two years old. Could it be that his learning time could be more exaggerated than theirs?

Thinking of this, Yinzhen couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and walked behind the twins to look down. "Huh?" "Hiss!" You don't know until you see it. Once you see it, Yinzhen really admires his second brother. The position of the prince is really not easy to sit! Look at this schedule, is that something a normal person can accept?

Prince Yinreng's normal daily routine:

During the Yin hour, which is between 3 and 5 in the morning, the prince would review his lessons in the study, waiting for his teacher to come and check on the class.

Between 5 and 7 in the morning, the teacher would check the lessons and assign new assignments. At this time, the prince would follow Emperor Kangxi's "120-times reading method" and recite the text over and over again.

Between seven and nine in the morning, Emperor Kangxi would personally check the prince's homework. Of course, no matter how well the prince recited, Emperor Kangxi would not praise him too much, because he was afraid that the prince would become proud.

Between nine and eleven o'clock, the prince would start practicing calligraphy again. It was summer in the capital, and the room was as stuffy as a steamer, but the prince still had to sit upright and concentrate, writing at his desk.

Finally, it was noon and the prince was going to have lunch. However, the prince still couldn't rest. From 11:00 to 1:00, after finishing his meal, the prince immediately began to recite the "Book of Rites" using the "120-times reading method" and then memorized it.

From 1:00 PM to 1:00 PM, the prince's physical education class was held, and it was also the time for him to explain the scriptures. In fact, it was just a small test after practicing archery.

From 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., the emperor would take the princes to examine their homework and conduct on-site examinations.

From 5:00 to 9:00 in the evening, Emperor Kangxi would lead the princes in a shooting contest to test their archery skills. Of course, the humble Emperor Kangxi would even shoot his own arrows, always hitting the target.

By this time, it was already dark, and the prince's day of study had finally come to an end. However, the prince, finally able to relax, couldn't play at this time. He had to hurry to sleep, because at the fifth watch, he had to get up again to review his lessons, otherwise he would be scolded by Emperor Kangxi. (Written in my own language; sorry, my writing is not good, so I haven't translated it into classical Chinese.)

After an unknown amount of time, the twins quietly put down their schedules and began to eat their meals. Yinzhen also returned to his seat and ate in silence. For a while, the only sound that could be heard in the entire main hall was the sound of eating.

Yinreng didn't say much when he saw the three people's behavior, but just raised the corner of his mouth. Ha, a bunch of little brats!
