The fourth child was very interested in the steam engine that Ning Yunjin had brought in, so he had no choice but to agree to show it to them.

After the steam engine was invented, it was first used in the textile and mining industries. Ning Yunjin had asked carpenters to help make a miniature version of the textile machine before, but he hadn’t brought it to the palace yet, so he showed them how to use it. The machine pumps water.

This machine is too small to use coal, so the heat source comes from the alcohol lamp, but when the water is boiled, you can still see the steam driving the wheels to rotate rapidly, and the drainage efficiency is extremely high.

The four boys couldn't put it down. Although they don't know how this thing works, they always feel very powerful.Looking at those eyes full of expectation, Ning Yunjin felt Alexander.

Although the reservedness of the prince kept them from asking for it directly, the longing in his eyes couldn't be concealed. He really had no choice but to promise to give them one one at a later date, and the fourth little one smiled happily.

After eating at Ning Yunjin's place, they continued to do their homework.After the prince left the upper study room and studied to listen to the government, Wen Zhen didn't pay so much attention to the princes' homework. When there were many things in the court, he would go to the assessment every few days, so now he is studying in the upper study room. It was much more relaxed than that of Ning Yunjin at that time.

However, the four younger ones did not dare to slack off. It is true that the first two elder brothers are too outstanding in their studies. If they are compared too much, they themselves will lose face, and they are very self-conscious in their studies.

For their homework, it is easy for Ning Yunjin to tutor them, and occasionally he can teach them some math knowledge in advance.Among the four young ones, except for the youngest Hongyang, who is a bit more reserved, the other three are all pampered, spoiled, and taken care of by their mothers. Although they are big kids, they are not annoying. Xia also has a good impression of him, so it is easier to get along with him.

After dark, it was inconvenient for the four little ones to disturb them for too long, so they went back to their respective courtyards to rest.

After Ning Yunjin sent them away one by one, he felt that living in this palace would not be boring with these little ones coming to make jokes every day.

Different from the happy Taotao atmosphere here, the second prince Hong Xi's residence was filled with low air pressure.

Hong Xi looked at the servant beside him, and asked, "Is Hongyang Hongxin and the others at Ning Yunjin's place?"

The servant hurriedly said, "Reporting to the second prince, the four princes did gather in the first room after class."

"These brats who eat inside and out." Hong Xi slapped the table and said, "In the past when I invited them, I had to invite them three times before we got together. They must have forgotten who is the elder brother!"

The servant saw that his expression was a bit ferocious, and quickly lowered his head, but he said in his heart, Second Prince, you usually don't show brotherly love, the princes in this palace are not human beings, how could they be willing to stick to you.

Angry in her heart, Hong Xi swung the people around her away, leaving only a silent person behind her.Then she asked the servant to stare at the West Fifth Institute to see what the four princes were doing in the first office.

After these people had left, Hong Xin turned to the man and said, "Zhang En, do you have any clues about what I asked you to do earlier?"

The man named Zhang En was Hong Xi's personal eunuch, he was shrewd and capable, so he valued him very much.As the second prince, Hong Xi is not as good as the crown prince who has people from Zhan Shi's mansion for him to send. Apart from the people from Anping mansion, the only ones who can command him are those who are his personal servants.

Zhang En said helplessly, "Reporting to the second prince, the younger one has already been arranged, but I guess nothing can be found out. Although this Ning Yunjin makes a lot of noise in Beijing, he seldom leaves Ningfu. Nothing to explore,"

"Could it be that I don't know about this?" Hong Xi also grew up at the same time as Ning Yunjin, so how could she not know his growth process.He said, "Focus on checking about his character to see if there is anything wrong with his virtue. Didn't he open so many shops, didn't he ever bully others?"

Zhang En shook his head and said, "That's really not the case. Master Xiaoning's Wenxiangju, let alone Beijing, is the only one in the whole of Daxia. It won't be so good for others to imitate. Those who imitate, as long as He never pursued it without using the name of Wenxiangju. Others, such as lo mei shops and newspaper offices, he doesn’t seem to care about it at all.”

"According to what you say, is this Ning Yunjin really perfect?" Hong Xi slapped the table and sneered, "I don't believe it, there really are such perfect people in this world?"

For the second prince who is determined to fight with Ning Yunjin, Zhang En is really helpless. In the early years, in order to raise a banner and fight against the prince, it would be fine if he didn't show a good face to Ning Yunjin, who could not be won as an ally. Now, since it has been confirmed that the man is a heaven worshiper and a courtier who is valued by the emperor, why should he continue to confront each other like this.

Zhang En didn't know that the reason why Hongxi was upset was because of the relationship between Ning Yunjin and Wenzhen, and secondly, he couldn't swallow this breath. Why should he be inferior to the prince as a prince, but always be punished? A minister stepped forward.

Seeing Zhang En looking at herself in embarrassment, Hong Xi frowned and asked, "I don't need to do anything to him, as long as I can cause him some trouble, there is no way to do this?"

Zhang En rolled his eyes, swallowed his saliva, and said falteringly, "Reporting to the second prince, I have an idea, but this fact is of great importance. If the emperor finds out that we did it, I'm afraid..."

"Is it related to your father?" Hong Xi thought that Zhang En wanted to connect her father's affair with Ning Yunjin, and asked curiously, "Let's hear it first?"

"Second prince, you may have been too young at that time, so you don't know..." Zhang En whispered, "I heard that the death of the eldest prince was strange. It was rumored in the palace that the eldest prince may not have died, but was just killed. The emperor sent him away, the situation at that time really needed a prince from Zuo Shi's family..."

Hearing that it was about the eldest prince, Hong Xi's eyes suddenly widened. That elder brother whom he had never met before was the eldest son who was more authentic than the prince!He quickly asked, "It should be impossible! I heard that the father set up a companion mausoleum for the eldest prince in Dongling."

"This is also rumored by some old people in the palace. I don't know if it is true." Zhang En explained, "I heard that the night before the eldest prince died, the emperor summoned Mr. Ning Jingxian and asked him to deliver a package After sending it out, because of his wife's death, the matter was left alone, and he was reassigned to someone else. But at that time, Mr. Ning was the commander of the guards, who would check carefully whether he had brought anything with him!?"

He paused, and continued, "Since the old thief Fumeng was executed, the emperor has taken special care of the Ning family, and especially attached great importance to Lord Ning, so some people in the palace speculated that Ning Yunjin might be the eldest prince."

Hong Xi said in disbelief, "This is impossible..." He stood up and walked around twice, muttering again and again, "No, it's also possible. I heard that Ning Yunjin's jade, name, and characters were all His father took it himself... It is impossible for his father to have that kind of thought for him at that time... But if Ning Yunjin is really the eldest prince, how could they..." The more he thought about it, the more confused he felt, thinking I can't see the relationship between them.

Zhang En didn't understand what he was struggling with, so he whispered, "Second prince, didn't you just say that you just want to give Mr. Xiao Ning a headache and cause him some trouble? We don't care if it's true or not, just spread the rumors. That's it."

"What do you know! This is a big deal, if it's true..." Hong Xi glared at him and said, "Besides, if Ning Yunjin is really the prince, wouldn't I be asking for trouble? Having a prince is not enough !?"

Zhang En laughed and said, "But shouldn't the prince be the most disturbed by the rumors? If it is done a little more concealed, it will kill two birds with one stone."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Xi's eyes lit up immediately.Indeed, is there anything more noble than a heaven worshiper, a capable Sanyuan, and a true eldest son? If Ning Yunjin's identity is really suspected, the crown prince's identity will be questioned first.

Since the father dared to be with Ning Yunjin, then Ning Yunjin would definitely not be the prince, and after the prince was burned out and did messy things, he might be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Hong Xi nodded towards Zhang En, and the two began to study the method of operation!

It was night, when Wen Zhen pushed open the door of Ning Yunjin's room, he saw him sneezed twice in succession.

He laughed, "Could it be that he caught a cold?"

Ning Yunjin shrugged his nose, and said nasally, "No way, someone must be thinking about me! There's nothing I can do about my natural beauty."

His nasal voice was extraordinarily soft and cute, and Wen Zhen felt that the gloom of the day was swept away immediately. He laughed and said, "I thought twice, you just slapped me twice."

Ning Yunjin was too lazy to argue with him, and said seriously, "Maybe someone misses you a little too much. But you are not very busy today, why are you here again?"

As soon as he mentioned this matter, Wen Zhen's face froze for a moment, and he couldn't help sighing, "Today I asked the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to bring up some of the accounts with Huguang, the embankment repair project, etc., and now I can confirm that, Huguang does have a problem."

Ning Yunjin naturally knew about Wenzhen's submission of information from the Ministry of Industry, so he thought that this person would be busy for a few days!He asked curiously, "Looking at your face, could it be that the problem is serious?"

"The people in Huguang can't be trusted anymore!" Wen Zhen shook his head with an ugly face, "Even the spy line is problematic."

Ning Yunjin was puzzled and said, "How is that possible? Isn't that your confidant?"

"Why don't these people dare to take advantage of Lizi!" Wen Zhen said angrily, "This time I will definitely send people to Huguang to investigate, but I really don't know who else in the imperial court is trustworthy except you!"

Ning Yunjin said directly, "Don't look down on me so much, if they give you a lot of benefits, maybe I will betray you too!" He rubbed his fingers and said with a smile, "You know very well that gold and silver are my favorite things. jewelry."

Wen Zhen glared at him reproachfully, "To be honest, after much deliberation this time, I only think that you or Hong Ming are the most credible. But Hong Ming is really... well, I'm afraid I can't hold back those old foxes. .If I let you go, but I can't bear it. Forget it, let the prince go to Huguang for a trip!"

Let the prince go, isn't this a thief calling for a thief! ?Ning Yunjin rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, you can let the second prince try it."

"Hong Xi?" Wen Zhen asked strangely, "He is worse than the Crown Prince!"

Ning Yunjin frowned and said, "But he has Anping's family to take care of him!"

What he said made Wenzhen's eyes brighten up. Indeed, the Anping family has the largest number of rulers among the five surnames. In order for Hong Xi to run errands well, it would take no effort at all!
