Yinzuo was a typical hands-off boss. It was a great act of patience that he maintained his work enthusiasm until Zhe left. After some discussion between father and son, the task finally fell on Yinzhi. Of course, his father was not a cold-hearted and unreasonable person. Look, he even assigned Yinzhen as his assistant.
"Ama, why don't we stop here today? I got up early today and I'm so sleepy now."
Now that he had gotten rid of this hot potato, Yinzuo naturally didn't want to sit here and continue listening to the gospel. He stood up and walked to Kangxi's side, stretched out his hand and pulled his sleeve. Seeing Kangxi looking at him, he hurriedly expressed his request to leave. Kangxi looked at the drowsy Yinzuo, then looked at his two sons opposite him who obviously had tired faces, raised his hand and called Liang Jiugong who was waiting on the side.
"Alright, let's stop discussing this for today. It's getting late. Yinzhen and Yinzhen, please stop messing around. Liang Jiugong, come and take them downstairs to rest."
Yinzhen and Yin'er were also human beings. They had been busy since they learned the news yesterday and were now tired and sleepy. Upon hearing this, they hurriedly stood up, bowed to Kangxi, and then followed Liang Jiugong out of the flower hall.
It was not until Yinzhen and Yinluo had completely walked out of the flower hall that Kangxi retracted his gaze to look at Yinzuo who was slumped in a chair and drowsy. To be honest, looking at Yinzuo's current behavior, if the agreement had not been placed in front of him, Kangxi would never have believed that the person who took the lead in signing this agreement would be this unreliable guy in front of him.
"Yinzuo, if you're really sleepy, let Wanquan take you to the back to rest. If you sleep leaning on the chair like this, your neck will probably be stiff again when you wake up tomorrow morning."
Yinzuo was very sleepy at the moment, and naturally Kangxi's words went in one ear and out the other. After calling him several times without getting a response, Kangxi simply didn't bother to call him anymore. He simply raised his hand to call Wanquan back and asked him to take people to carry Yinzuo and his chair to the side hall of Qingxi Book House.
Yinzuo's sleep quality is so good that it's enviable. He didn't wake up after all the tossing and turning. With the help of Wanquan and others, Dexi carefully moved his master to the bed. In order to prevent Yinzuo from being woken up when changing clothes, he simply skipped this step and just wrung out a wet towel to wipe his face.
"Thank you for accompanying me on this trip, Eunuch Wan. I'll be the one to take care of you from now on. You should go back and rest early."
Yinzuo was the apple of Kangxi's eye, and Dexi had been serving Yinzuo for more than twenty years. Not to mention Wanquan, even Liang Jiugong would not dare to take him for granted in the face of his thanks. The two men stood at the door and exchanged a few more words. After making sure that Yinzuo was sleeping soundly, Wanquan took his men back to the front to report.
It's said that Yinzuo has been spoiled for so many years and has developed a lot of diseases. Look at him. Yinlu and Yinzhi were busy all day yesterday, and they got up early this morning to attend the meeting at Qingxi Study. But what about Yinzuo? It's already noon outside, the meeting is over, and he's still sleeping soundly.
"Brother, why does Sixth Brother sleep so well? It's almost lunchtime now. Do you think we should go and wake him up? Brother, do you think pinching his nose would help?"
Although Yinzhen was dragged into Yinzuo's bedroom by the naughty Fourteenth Boy, he didn't want to participate in Fourteenth Boy's obviously suicidal behavior at all. You know, this is a side hall of Qingxi Book House. Although it is some distance away from the main hall where Kangxi lives, if Yinzuo is angered, he just needs to yell at him and his father will arrive at the battlefield within five minutes.
"Fourteen, let's not talk about why your Sixth Brother sleeps so well. Everyone knows that failure makes one wiser, but why doesn't this principle apply to you? Come on, tell me yourself. How many times have you suffered at the hands of your Sixth Brother since you were little? Why don't you learn from your mistakes? If you want to get yourself killed, go ahead and do not drag me into this..."
Although Fourteenth was raised under the care of his mother and two brothers, he was just a simple idiot, not stupid. Yinzhen's reminder naturally evoked the tragic memories of his childhood. When he thought that he might still be punished by his sixth brother to pull the mill and squat in horse stance when he was in his twenties, Fourteenth couldn't help but shudder.
"Thanks for the reminder, big brother. I was impulsive and reckless just now. Since Sixth Brother is still asleep, let's not disturb him for now. Big brother, why don't we go out to eat something and then take a walk. I think Sixth Brother should be awake by then."
Although Yinzhen didn't know what important matter Fourteenth had that required him to wait until Yinzuo woke up, he had a rare day off today and would have nothing to do if he went back, so he didn't mind staying here to watch the fun.
Fourteenth guessed correctly. They went out for a meal and took a stroll in the garden. When they came back, Yinzuo woke up. Of course, as the champion of sleeping in, he didn't rush to get up even after waking up. Instead, he took out a travel book from somewhere and just lay on the bed and read it with relish. It was not until Dexi came to report who Yinzuo was and Fourteenth came that he lazily got up from the bed, stood on the ground and stretched out his arms, asking Dexi to come and help him change his clothes.
"Sixth brother, you are finally awake. The reason why I dragged my eldest brother to come to you today is to ask if I can participate in the matter of Japan."
It's said that the child resembles whoever he hangs out with for a long time. Look at Fourteen's straightforward narrative style. It's not like he copied his sixth brother 100%. Yinzuo ignored Fourteen, who was staring at him expectantly. He walked over to sit next to Yinzhi and nodded at the teacup on the table. Dexi immediately came over, picked up the teapot, poured him tea, and handed it to Yinzuo.
"Brother, I heard that you really like to drink Junshan Yinzhen. I just got a lot from Khan Ama a few days ago. You can take some back later."
Regardless of whether Yinzuo was just making small talk, Yinzhi accepted his brother's kindness. Regardless of whether he liked Junshan Yinzhen or not, the quality of the tea obtained from Kangxi must be impeccable.
"That's great! This top-grade Junshan Silver Needle is rare. I was thinking of asking Khan Ama to get some to try. Now that Xiaoliu has it, it saves me the trouble."
The brothers were chatting back and forth, but Fourteen, who was ignored aside, was very anxious at the moment. No, Sixth Brother, please give me a definite answer whether this will work or not.
