Chapter 345 Sixth Brother, you've finally decided to come out and see the guests.
Having decided to reassure Yinzhuo, Kangxi did not hesitate at all to beckon Liang Jiugong, who was waiting outside the pavilion, into the pavilion.
"Liang Jiugong, go to my private treasury now and select some things that children can use. Then go to the Eighteenth Prince and deliver a decree saying that I had not thought things through before. The Eighteenth Prince is still young and may not be able to handle a long journey, so he will not be taken on this trip..."
When Kangxi said this, Yinzhu was utterly speechless. He said, "Father, that's the gist of it, but is it appropriate to say it so bluntly? Couldn't you have come up with a more respectable reason? That way, people would feel more comfortable hearing it."
But it's not just that simple. Only those who care about you will consider your emotions and care about your joys and sorrows. In history, Emperor Kangxi was either wary of his adult princes or extremely disappointed with them at this time, so he sought solace in his young sons.
And now? Kangxi may still be wary of his sons, but he can't resist the high emotional value that Yinzhuo gives him every day. Kangxi is constantly worried about Yinzhuo and has endless cases to solve. He is so charmed by Yinzhuo that he is in a daze and happy all day long. Why would he need to seek any comfort from his youngest son?
Human feelings only develop after a long period of careful interaction. Kangxi only saw Yinzhi a few times during festivals over the years. How much affection could you expect him to have for Yinzhi? Kangxi was an emperor who had ruled the world for so many years. Why would he bother with a son he didn't care about?
Yinzhuo clearly understood this principle, so even though he was constantly complaining in his heart, he did not express any opinion on the matter. He only asked Dexi to go back and find some things that children would like, and asked Liang Jiugong to help him bring them to Yinzhuo.
Having decided to deal with whatever comes his way, Yinzhu stopped torturing himself with the matter. With the flowers still in bloom and some time before his departure, he took the opportunity to gather his friends and brothers for a small get-together at his Enze Garden.
"Sixth Brother, you've finally decided to come out and see guests! You have no idea how miserable I've been while you were holed up inside. My eldest and second brothers are utterly heartless; my Ministry of Works' main hall has practically become their meeting place. They know you're in a bad mood, yet they keep urging me to come see you. Did I not want to go? I went and got kicked out..."
Faced with Yin Tang's whining and complaining, Yin Zuo responded by frowning and giving him a hard flick on the forehead. After Yin Tang took several steps back while clutching his head, Yin Zuo glared at him irritably.
"What are you howling about? I'm not deaf. Do you think I can't hear you when you speak normally? What do you mean I've finally come out to meet guests? You haven't been secretly going to brothels behind my back, have you? And what do you mean by your Ministry of Works Hall? Isn't that place mine?"
As everyone knows, no matter how powerful our Ninth Prince is outside, he's a coward in front of Yinzhuo. He doesn't dare to fight back after Yinzhuo hits him on the head, and he even has to go over and explain to him.
"Sixth Brother, you're right. You're the head of the Ministry of Works, so the main hall is naturally yours. Wasn't that just a slip of the tongue? Don't worry, I've always remembered what you told me. I have been to brothels a few times, but that was for business. I only went to drink and enjoy the singing and dancing; I never stayed overnight..."
It's no wonder that Yinzhuo wanted to manage everything; the example of the Tongzhi Emperor in history was right there for all to see. When Yinzhuo and Yintang first started doing business together, Yintang was only a teenager. Yinzhuo was afraid that he would be intentionally or unintentionally influenced by those people in the business world and come back with a disease, so he made this request of him.
Despite his loud and arrogant demeanor, Yin Tang actually listened to Yin Zuo's words. With someone watching over him, he didn't make any mistakes over the years. Later, as Yin Tang grew older and became a seasoned businessman, Yin Zuo gradually stopped interfering in his affairs. Little did he expect that after so many years, he would still be able to keep this red line.
“Little Nine did a good job. With your current status, you are destined to have many wives and concubines in this life. Although it is said that the flowers in the garden are not as fragrant as the wild flowers, you should still avoid touching outsiders if possible. If you really want to touch them, you should find someone you know well. Otherwise, if you get sick, your life will be over. Alright, don’t stand here anymore. I specially called Eighteenth Brother here today. I think he seems a little nervous. You and Little Ten go and play with him to ease his tension.”
Yinzhuo had just dismissed Yintang and was going to play with Yinxi when he turned around and saw Yinreng. Yinzhen walked in from outside. Well, these two weren't like the other two who only got scolded by him; they were clearly here to scold people.
"Xiao Liu, what's been wrong with you these past few days? I heard you haven't been in a good mood lately. Is something bothering you?"
Isn't this a coincidence? The thing that's bothering me is your problem, Second Brother. Sigh, everyone says that being born with knowledge isn't a good thing. Look at you, so happy knowing nothing, while I've been stuck on this for half a month and I'm almost driven crazy with worry.
"Sigh, men, they all have a few sentimental days every month. But don't worry, second brother, I'm pretty strong-willed. It's just that..."
Yinzhuo wanted to say that he would have to hold on, but he swallowed the words back. It was just a sentence. There was no need to waste today's happiness on tomorrow's troubles. There are different views on both sides of the mountain. Whether there is wind or not, you are free.
"You're always spouting nonsense. What do you mean men have a few sentimental days every month? My second brother and I do, don't we? If something's really wrong, don't keep it to yourself. If Xiao Jiu and the others don't say anything, what are all your brothers for? Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, right? Even if you've caused a huge disaster, we can always come up with a solution together."
Although Yinzhuo's forehead was throbbing from Yinzhen's finger, his smile was quite bright. He raised his hands and pulled Yinreng on the left and right. Just as Yinzhen was about to speak, he heard Yinti's distinctive loud voice from behind him.
"What do you mean by 'three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang'? Little Liu, you haven't gotten into trouble again, have you? Come on, tell your big brother if you need me to go to Father Khan to plead for you?"
Haha, bro, look at you gloating. You don't look like you're going to plead for me at all. Are you sure you're just adding fuel to the fire? And also, big brother, what kind of serious crime do you think I've committed for the Emperor to punish me to the point that you guys have to plead for me? If things unfold as they have in history, it's really hard to say who will be pleading for whom.
