Chapter 376 Fourth Brother, Please Beg Me First

Although Hongxu looked lively and healthy, due to his father's bad taste, the little guy was forced to drink a bowl of bitter medicine before Yinzuo allowed him to go back and rest.

"Father, you were frightened just now, and Doctor Li is still here. Would you like him to take a look at you?"

If it weren't for the trait of being a jerk, would he have inherited it? Look at Hongxu, although he may not look that young, he clearly understands the principle of sharing happiness with others. But as the saying goes, the old ones are the wisest. Hongxu's tricks are definitely no match for the veteran jerk Jiang Yinzuo.

"What's the matter? You haven't finished the medicine just now. It's okay. Doctor Li hasn't left yet. Ama can ask him to prescribe you a few more doses to take at some time tomorrow."

The little fellow's mouth was still filled with the bitter taste of medicine, so he dared not say a word. He took two steps back, bowed to Yinzuo, pulled his personal attendant, turned around and ran away. He ran so fast as if he was afraid that if he was a second slower, he would be caught by his father and forced to drink the bitter medicine soup.

"You little bastard, you're pretty fast. You're trying to trick your father. Humph, you're still a little naive."

Yinzuo stared at Xiao Hongxu's fleeing back for a long time, until his figure disappeared around the corner of the courtyard and could no longer be seen. Then he retracted his gaze and looked at Liang Jiugong who was standing beside him.

"Eunuch Liang, is Khan Ama busy today?"

As an emperor, Kangxi was always busy all year round. Moreover, the New Year was approaching, and there were so many things to do that he could hardly handle them all even if he did not eat or drink every day. However, Liang Jiugong obviously could not answer like this.

"Reporting to Your Highness, His Majesty, the Emperor is a bit busy, but if Your Highness is willing to visit the Palace of Heavenly Purity, His Highness will definitely be very happy. Your Highness hasn't been there these past few days, and His Highness has been thinking about you almost every day."

Wow, what is the art of language? Look, this is it. Liang Jiugong has served Kangxi for so many years, and he has got full marks in this subject. What he said is clearly telling Yinzuo that the Emperor is very busy, but he still welcomes you to come over.

Yinzuo thought that his leather jacket was quite warm. Since Liang Jiugong had made it so clear how much Kangxi missed his son, he certainly could not turn a deaf ear to it. So the next day, he took his men to the Qianqing Palace.

What Liang Jiugong said before was too conservative. Kangxi is not just busy now, he is so busy that he has no time to rest. Even his two new and old princes Yinreng and Yinzhen were conscripted by this old man.

"Hey, second brother, fourth brother, what's with all that? Look at the dark circles under your eyes, they're almost as heavy as my little panda. I've told you so many times that staying up late is bad for your health, why don't you listen? Where's Khan Ama? Did he also stay up all night like you guys?"

To be honest, the scene of Yinreng, the deposed crown prince, and Yinzhen, the current crown prince, working opposite each other had a great impact on Yinzuo. It must be said that his father had some strange ideas in his head.

"Sixth brother, please stop talking about it. Second brother didn't just stay up all night. I've only slept for three hours since Khan Ama called me here the afternoon before yesterday. I don't know where Khan Ama got all these old account books out of. The fourth brother and I, one checking the nucleic acid and the other copying, have been busy for so long, and we've only finished dealing with this on the table. See, the pile on the floor is waiting to be dealt with. As for Khan Ama, he's in his study processing the documents. Do you want to sit here and wait?"

Yinzuo looked in the direction of Yinreng's finger, and was almost scared to run away by the piles of account books on the ground. Don't ask him why he felt scared. It was just that the way the two people opposite him looked at him was too strange. He thought he should not sit down today, otherwise he was really afraid that he would not know when he would get up again.

"Um... Second Brother, Fourth Brother, I suddenly remembered that there seems to be some unfinished business in my house. Since you are all busy, I will stay here to bother you. When Khan Ama comes out after finishing his work, please tell him that I will come to see him later..."

Want to run away? My beautiful girl, now that you're here, wouldn't it be a shame if I didn't find you something to do? Yinreng and Yinzhen exchanged a glance, then stood up in unison and quickly caught up with Yinzuo, who had already turned and was about to run. Each of them grabbed one of his arms and pulled him back.

"Hey, why did you run away for no reason? We brothers haven't seen each other for a few days, right? It's not easy to meet each other. Shouldn't you stay and chat with your second and fourth brothers? And Khan Ama has been talking about you these past two days. Come, sit here. Your second and fourth brothers will accompany you while you wait for Khan Ama to come out of the study. Wanquan, go get an abacus for your sixth master. Xiaoliu, you have nothing to do anyway, why not help your second brother calculate the account book..."

Haha, he knew that reminiscing about the past was fake, and the real purpose was to want him to help calculate the account book. But now that he had already sat down, it was obviously too late to say anything. After all, it was easy to get on this pirate ship but difficult to get off.

"Hmph, Second Brother, you've said so much since I walked in until now. I'm afraid this last sentence is the only thing you want to say the most. And Fourth Brother, you're still laughing. I'm your biological brother. Do you have the heart to let me have panda eyes like you guys?"

Facts proved that Yinzhen was cruel. After all, Yinreng might not be aware of Yinzuo's talent in mathematics, but Yinzhen, who had worked with him, knew it very well. To put it bluntly, now was the time when even a fart would cause trouble. If they were expected to deal with the pile of account books on the ground, it would take them forever. Since Yinzuo had come to them at this time, there was no reason to let him run away.

"Sixth brother, there's nothing we can do about it. Khan Ama asked us to finish these account books before the New Year. But look, my second brother and I have been busy for so long, and we have only processed so little. Just consider it a favor. Otherwise, my second brother and I will never be able to finish it even if we die."

It must be said that Yinzhen understood his younger brother quite well, and knew that Yinzuo was a typical person who would only respond to soft words and not to tough ones. So he simply played the victim, and this trick obviously worked well on Yinzuo as well. Look at Yinreng and the heavy dark circles under Yinzhen's eyes, Yinzuo finally softened his heart.

"It's not impossible to help, Fourth Brother, how about you beg me first?"

Yinzhen was stunned at first when he heard this, but then he couldn't help laughing. He stood up and stood in front of Yinzuo, raised his hand, patted his shoulder and smiled.

"Okay, then Fourth Brother, please, Sixth Brother, can you please help us?"
