Life is really unpredictable, like the big intestine wrapped in the small intestine, one link after another, making it hard to predict. Just now, Yinzuo was still sighing about his good fortune and living a comfortable life, but tragedy happened just a few days later, because his Khan Ama's habit of matchmaking came back again. After getting rid of his brothers, he now wants to take action against him, his fifth brother, and his seventh brother.

Although Yinzuo always knew that he could not make the decision on such a big matter as marriage, and he had seen his older brothers get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, he originally thought that he would become more open-minded and it would be easier to accept it after seeing so many things. But when it really happened to him, Yinzuo still felt that he was unable to accept it.

Not to mention the appearance and personality of the person he would spend the rest of his life with, just thinking about the fact that she was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old kid when she married him, Yinzuo felt his head buzzing. This was either pure or a sin. Then thinking about the fact that he would have to have a child with such a little kid, he couldn't even bear to think about that scene. If this happened in modern times, it would definitely be a crime.

"Alas, this long road of life, there are indeed no hurdles that cannot be overcome, only hurdles that will never end. The matter of attending court last time was resolved, but now there are new things. Come on, Dexi, let's go to the Ganqing Palace to fight the little monsters."

After much thought, Yinzuo still felt that he should fight with his father for a while and promote to him the benefits of late marriage and late childbearing, as well as good eugenics. Although he knew that the hope was slim, isn't it all in our hands? There is a saying that goes, don't be disappointed with life just because it is difficult, because the most difficult moments are often the moments when you are closest to success. People still have to be optimistic.

So the optimistic Sixth Prince fought his way to the Palace of Heavenly Purity with great ambition. Coincidentally, when he arrived, Kangxi was studying a stack of portraits. When he saw Yinzuo coming in, he raised his hand and beckoned him over.

"You've come at the perfect time. I'm currently selecting candidates for your future wives, along with the fifth and seventh brothers. Since you're here, take a look at these people and see if there's anyone you like."

The fact that this portrait had fallen into Kangxi's hands meant that the previous portraits had all passed the test in terms of family background, character, manners, and even appearance. To be honest, Yinzuo was a little curious about these people who were carefully selected by the Ministry of Revenue. He walked to Kangxi's side and glanced at the portraits of several people, and immediately his curiosity disappeared.

"Khan Ama, as the saying goes, marriage is a matter of parents' will and matchmaker's words. My son has no idea about the choice of his future wife. I will leave it to Khan Ama to decide."

Yinzuo's purpose of coming today was to delay the marriage as much as possible, not to personally choose the candidate for his future wife. Moreover, he thought that with Kangxi's favor for him, he would not just point to someone to bluff him.

Yinzuo thought that since he had come to ask for help, he should give him a sweet treat first. Besides, the portraits nowadays only pursued the resemblance of spirit rather than the resemblance of form, so what could be said about that? Kangxi was quite satisfied with his son's trust. After all, he believed that his vision of people was quite good. However, his satisfaction was obviously a little premature, because Yinzuo then dealt him a heavy blow.

"Khan Ama, I came to you today to discuss the issue of the arranged marriage. I have no objection to the matter, but I do have a small suggestion about the timing of the wedding."

Kangxi had previously thought that after a year, his son Yinzuo had indeed become much more sensible. Unexpectedly, after just a few words, this kid showed him with his actions that he was just overthinking it.

"I have no objection to the choice of marriage partner or the act of marriage itself, but I do have a suggestion about the timing of the wedding. So, tell me, do you think it's too early or too late?"

Yinzuo observed the expression on his father's face and found that Kangxi did not seem angry. He couldn't help but feel relieved. He raised his hand and put it on Kangxi's shoulder to help him massage his shoulders.

"Of course it's too early. My son gets goose bumps every time I think about him getting married at thirteen or fourteen, and having a little thing called "Ama" at fifteen or sixteen. He's still a child now, so how can he take care of his wife and children?"

Obviously, this reason could not convince Kangxi, because in his view, isn't it the same for everyone? Marriage is granted at the age of twelve or thirteen, and a couple of years later, followed by a long line of children. Having children at the age of fifteen or sixteen is not normal. Why should it give him goose bumps? Besides, are all the servants in his palace going to die? Why would he need to take care of his wife and children himself?

Yinzuo obviously knew that his previous words were not enough to convince Kangxi, so he thought for a moment and continued.

"Khan Ama, my son has observed that early marriage and early childbearing do have an impact on offspring. While early marriage can lead to the early birth of children, the survival rate of offspring is much lower than that of marrying at an older age. Think about it, getting married at the age of thirteen or fourteen means both parties are still children themselves, and their reproductive organs are not fully developed. How can children born under such circumstances be healthy? If you don't believe me, you can have someone investigate the various mansions in the capital to see if what my son said is true, and whether children born at an older age are more likely to survive."

Kangxi was obviously stunned by what Yinzuo said. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it seemed to be the case. In fact, there was no need to investigate. Take Kangxi himself as an example. From the time he knew about human affairs until Yinzuo was born in the eleventh year of Kangxi's reign, he had many children, but none of them survived. In the end, the children died young, which cast a shadow on Kangxi's raising children. He would rather take the children out of the palace and let the ministers he trusted help take care of them, and he dared not keep them under his nose for fear that he would not be able to raise them.

"What you said makes some sense."

Seeing that Kangxi was shaken by what he said, Yinzuo hurriedly continued.

"Khan Ama wants us to get married soon simply because he wants us to have children sooner, but that also requires us to be able to give birth and raise them. Marrying later not only increases the survival rate of the offspring, but is also good for the mother herself. You know that childbirth is a journey through the gates of hell, the most dangerous. A girl of thirteen or fourteen is still a child, her body is not fully developed, and giving birth at this time could result in two deaths if she is not careful. So, even if it is for the sake of your own child and your wife's life, you have to postpone the wedding for a few years, preferably after she turns twenty."

Seeing that Yinzuo had made such a big pretense and finally found such a high-sounding excuse, which was to delay his marriage for a few years, Kangxi could not help but pull the man in front of him and slap him on the forehead!

"Alright, I'll have someone investigate what you said. It's not that you don't want to get married so early, but twenty is too late. By the time I'm twenty, your older brother will have run away. I can allow you to have fun for a few more years, but you must get married at the latest when you're eighteen."

Yinzuo was still satisfied with the result. Although he could not avoid this blind marriage, it was still good to delay the marriage for a few years.

"Thank you, Khan Ama, my son."
