Chapter 440 Brother, You Don’t Talk About Martial Ethics

As everyone knows, our Prince Zhao is fearless, but the thing he fears is being forced to drink bitter medicine. In his opinion, since ginger soup is used to prevent and treat colds, how can it not be considered medicine?

"Brother, it's already May. I just went swimming in the lake. Why would I need to drink ginger soup? Besides, look at the smooth muscle lines on my arms. What does this mean? It means I'm in great shape. I'm quite strong."

In order to avoid drinking the ginger soup, Yinzuo was really desperate. More than thirty of his men ran around the tent with Yinreng for several laps. Finally, Yinzhi, who was watching the show from the side, couldn't stand it anymore, so he went up and grabbed Yinzuo who was dodging back and forth, thus stopping the chase.

"Xiao Liu, you're a grown man after all. It's just some ginger soup, right? Why are you running? Lao Er, bring me that ginger soup. I want to see if this bowl of ginger soup can kill you."

Compared with Yinreng's gentle persuasion, Yinzhi's method was much simpler and more brutal. He didn't waste any words with Yinzuo. He lifted his legs and pressed Yinzuo down on the chair. He pinched Yinzuo's chin with one hand and poured ginger soup into Yinzuo's mouth with the other hand. His quick and decisive movements and calm expression made Yinzhen and others who were watching on the side look heavy-hearted.

"Ahem... ahem... ahem... brother, you have no martial ethics. Haven't you heard the saying that a gentleman should use his mouth, not his fists? And you had a big bowl of ginger soup, and you actually pried it open and poured it in my mouth. I choked, didn't you see? Just wait, when I get back I'll go to my father and complain about you. Big brother, you've changed. Am I still your beloved brother? You're really not gentle to me at all..."

Sue me? Fine, then I'll have to teach you a lesson before you see your father. Yinzhen glanced at Yinzuo, who was coughing and retching, and called Yinluo over to the side, asking him to take a bowl and get another bowl of ginger soup.

"Big Brother has changed, right? Well, today I'll show you how terrifying Big Brother has become. Come on, drink this bowl of ginger soup obediently, or Big Brother will force you to drink more..."

Listen, is that what people are saying? Yinzuo looked at the ginger soup that had been brought to him. Even though he was unwilling to drink it, under Yinzhi's watchful gaze, he still took the bowl and drank it obediently.

As the saying goes, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. You say that you can't fight him, and you can't run away, what can Yinzuo do? Now Yinzuo is really like a dragon that has to coil and a tiger that has to lie down. In short, in a word, he who knows the times is a hero.

It should be said that killing a chicken to scare the monkey is a tactic that works well no matter when. With the precedent of Yinzuo, Yinlu, Yin? They didn't dare to have any thoughts of resistance. They even thought that what his eldest brother said was not wrong. It's just a bowl of ginger soup, right? It won't kill you if you drink it, but if you don't drink it, you will probably die...

Because he was forced to drink two bowls of ginger soup in a row, Yinzuo looked a little listless until dinner. After dinner, he dived into the tent, lay down on the bed and ignored everyone.

"Brother, it seems that those two bowls of ginger soup you drank have completely offended Sixth Brother. But it's not a good idea to keep going like this. Should we think of a way to appease him?"

Coax? Yinzhen wanted to coax him, but Yinzuo's actions today all revealed an unusual message, which was - I am very angry, the kind that can't be coaxed...

"How can I make him happy? If I had a way, I'd still be sitting here. Xiaojiu, aren't you businessmen always good at talking? How about this, let's switch places tonight. You go and make your sixth brother happy. It would be best if you can make him go back and not complain to Khan Ama."

It's true that businessmen can say this, but big brother, have you forgotten that your brother relies on his reincarnation skills, not his eloquence? Also, although it's dark now, we haven't slept yet, right? How did you dream?

Yinzhen's refusal was completely within his expectations. After all, everyone knew that besides being afraid of his father, Yinzhen was most afraid of his brother Yinzuo. He had to have the courage to stroke Yinzuo's beard when he knew that Yinzuo was angry.

Fortunately, Yinzuo was a person who got up quickly and went to bed quickly. When he woke up the next day, he had forgotten all the little emotions from yesterday. Because he slept well last night, he didn't feel grumpy even when he was woken up early in the morning. He even raised his hand and greeted Yinreng in a good mood when he saw him waking him up.

"Good morning, second brother! Is breakfast ready outside? I didn't eat much last night and I'm feeling a little hungry now... By the way, where's eldest brother? Why don't I see him..."

Seeing Yinzuo raise his hand, Yinreng grabbed him and pulled him up from the bed, then turned around and took clothes from the shelf beside him and handed them to him. Seeing that Yinzuo was dressed neatly, he replied with a smile.

"Brother always gets up early. He's probably leading some people for morning exercises nearby. If you're hungry, go wash up quickly. I'll go outside to see if breakfast is ready. After we eat and rest for a while, we'll go into the woods. I've packed your bow and arrows and muskets and hung them on your horse. Take a look and pack anything else you need."

Isn't there a saying that no matter where Chinese people go, the main thing is four words - since you are here, the outcome of the matter is basically determined. Now Yinzhen and the others obviously think so. Since they have come to this forest, if they don't get something decent, it would be a waste of time.

After breakfast, some people were left behind to guard the base camp. After Yinzhen, Yinreng and others counted their men, they automatically formed groups and led their men into the woods. You asked how these groups were divided. Let's say Yin'er, Yin? Jiao is inseparable from Meng, Thirteen, Fourteen and Meng are inseparable from Jiao. How else can they be divided?

Yinzuo had no objection to being grouped in the same group with Yinzhi. After all, his elder brother's fighting power was there, and he was definitely a big leg in the mountains. Yinzuo knew his own worth, so as soon as the team set off, he stuck close to his elder brother and hugged his big leg, which made Yinzhen stunned.

"Sixth brother, weren't you still mad at Big Brother yesterday? How come you're no longer angry after waking up? May I ask how you figured this out?"
