Rebirth: My Life as Daddy's Favorite in the Great Qing

A benevolent, all-around best debater and "chicken-raising" professional father; a master of palace intrigue and "white lotus" drama queen mother; a difficult, petty elder brother who ...

Chapter 100 You are here to laugh at me, right?

Yinzuo gained a lot from this trip to the frontier. Why do I say that? It was because his father Kangxi took advantage of this tour to the frontier to arrange his marriage, which he had been delaying for a long time. That's right, Kangxi found him a wife, and this wife had an unusual origin. She was the thirteen-year-old granddaughter of Prince Zhuolikitu of the Khorchin tribe, named Urentuya.

Yinzuo had long known that his marriage in this life was not destined to be decided by him, so he was quite calm about this sudden arranged marriage. He even took some time to secretly take a look at his future wife. Seeing that the girl seemed lively and cheerful and had a good appearance, Yinzuo felt relieved.

"Oh, you're back now. Fifth brother just saw you hiding there and secretly watching the girl for a while. So, are you satisfied with the wife that Khan Ama chose for you?"

As soon as Yinzuo returned to the tent, his brothers came to watch the fun. Facing their teasing looks, Yinzuo was not embarrassed at all.

"Look at what Fifth Brother said. What do you mean by peeking? That's the person I'm going to spend the rest of my life with. I have to get to know her in advance. And of course I'm satisfied with the person Khan Ama picked. How could he possibly cheat me?"

Yinqi had thought Yinzuo would be a little shy and embarrassed by his teasing, but he didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned and not show any embarrassment at all. The others felt bored and gave up teasing him.

Yinzuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they had stopped teasing him. Although he was thick-skinned enough and not afraid of their teasing, it was still quite annoying to deal with them one by one.

"Fifth brother, you guys didn't come here just to laugh at me, did you?"

You won’t believe it, but Yinzuo actually guessed it right. Yinqi and the others really came here to laugh at him, but that’s what happened, and he can’t admit it.

"That's impossible. These past few days, Khan Ama has been busy receiving Mongolian princes and nobles with his eldest, third, and fourth brothers. He was afraid that these little ones would run around, so he asked me and Old Seven to keep an eye on them. Today, we were planning to go horse racing with you, but halfway through, we saw you standing there, furtively glancing at the little girl..."

You better shut up. If you can't talk, just say less. He just glanced at the girl from a distance, so why is he acting sneaky? Isn't it terrible to be uneducated? You don't study hard on weekdays, and now you see that when you need to use it, you make a lot of mistakes.

Yinzuo secretly criticized his fifth brother, then stood up and asked Dexi to help him change his clothes. If he was going out to ride a horse, he had to change into clothes that were convenient for movement.

Yinzuo really likes riding horses on the grassland. This feeling of freedom is something he cannot get when riding horses on ordinary days in the horse farm or forest garden. Yinqi, Yinzuo and Yinyou have come to this grassland many times in recent years and are very familiar with the fun places nearby. In just a few days, they took Yinsi, Yinsi and other children to visit all the fun places nearby.

"It's a pity that Altai didn't come this time, otherwise I could have competed with him when we went hunting in a few days. Last time, he hunted two more rabbits than me and won my excellent bow and arrow, which I spent a lot of time to get from my second brother."

It was the first time for Yinsi and his companions to follow Kangxi to the grassland, so they naturally didn’t know who Altai was. But Yinqi and Yinyou were different. They were old friends of Altai, and they were still impressed by the fact that Altai won Yinzuo’s beloved bow and arrow with the help of two extra rabbits!

"Yes, it's a big loss that Altai didn't come this year. Otherwise, I might have won your bow this year. But it's good that he didn't come. At least Khan Ama can have some peace and quiet. Yinsi, Yinlu, Yin?, Yinlu, you guys weren't there at the time, so you don't know. When your sixth brother handed over the bow and arrow, he didn't look reluctant at all. But as soon as Altai left, this guy's face changed immediately. Then he ran to Khan Ama's tent and hugged Khan Ama and cried. We heard it clearly standing outside the tent. In the end, Khan Ama promised him a better bow and arrow, and the matter was finally settled."

Yinzuo didn't stop his fifth brother from exposing his shortcomings. In his opinion, it was not a shameful thing anyway. After Yinqi finished speaking, he added smugly.

"Yes, yes, Fifth Brother is right. What Khan Ama gave me back then was the birch bark horn bow with wooden patterns that you all saw and liked so much before. Khan Ama had it made specifically for me based on the one he has in his hand. Khan Ama's bow has a force of seven and a half, while mine has a force of four, which is just enough to pull."

Haha, this made him proud, but Yinqi and the others were accustomed to Yinzuo's Versailles behavior from time to time. No one took it to heart after hearing this. After all, their father had been partial to him for a long time.

"Sixth brother, if anyone still wants to bet with you during the hunting trip in a few days, just go find my younger brother. I'm sure I can beat him."

It has been more than half a year since the imperial concubine passed away. Perhaps it was because he was in a good mood after coming to the grassland, and there was a smile on Yin?'s face, and he looked a bit like before.

"That's not necessary. I didn't bring that nice bow with me when I came here. It's okay even if someone makes a bet with me and loses."

Wow, it turns out that this guy came prepared from the beginning. Otherwise, how could he be so arrogant and clamor to compete with Altai?

The day of hunting soon arrived. Yinzuo was woken up by Dexi early in the morning. After getting ready, he gathered with Yinzhi and others and waited outside Kangxi's tent. When Kangxi came out after getting ready, Yinzuo followed him to the hunting ground.

According to the previous procedures, Kangxi would speak a few words first, then pick up the bow and shoot an arrow, which would mean the hunting officially began.

"Yinzuo, are you going to follow me from now on, or wander around here on your own?"

Kangxi naturally wanted Yinzo to follow him, because this kid was really a worry, but Yinzo obviously didn't think so. He felt that following Kangxi was too dangerous. You know, his father liked to hunt challenging prey, and he liked to hunt tigers and black bears the most. He didn't want to just be a delivery boy.

"Khan Ama, your son won't hold you back. I'll take Lao Ba and the others for a stroll around here. We won't go into the deep woods."

Kangxi did not force him upon seeing this, but told them to bring enough guards with them when they entered the forest. Then he mounted his horse and led his men into the depths of the forest.

"Now there are only a few of us left, let's go too. This is your first time in this forest, so don't run around when you get inside. Just follow your sixth brother. Do you understand?"
