The half-month period was up in the blink of an eye. On this morning, Kangxi took time out to test the little guy.

In fact, he had already agreed in his mind to let the little guy continue to study with Yinreng, but the words had already been said before, so the process still had to be followed.

Cheng'an didn't know what he was thinking. He was extremely nervous at the moment, afraid that he wouldn't be able to answer the questions well and would have to go back to the Shangshufang.

Yinreng came over specifically to accompany him, and when he noticed his emotions, he immediately reached out and touched his head.

The kid was fearless since he was young, and Kangxi rarely saw him so nervous. He looked at him for a few more seconds before asking questions: "Everything has its root and end, and everything has its beginning and end. If you know the order, you will be close to the truth. What does it mean?"

This sentence comes from the "Great Learning". The little guy has learned it before. He thought about it for a while and then began to answer: "This sentence means that everything in the world has its origin and end. Everything has a beginning and..."

Yinreng stood by and did not disturb him, but nodded slightly in his heart, thinking that the little guy's answer was good.

The other princes were not in the Ganqing Palace, but they were very concerned about the little guy's affairs, so they all knew what day it was today.

"Do you think Cheng'an can pass the test of Emperor Aman?" Yin'e looked at the brothers sitting there.

Yinsi: "Cheng'an is so smart, I think there will be no problem."

"What if the Emperor deliberately gives him some difficult questions to test him?" Yin'e worried about the little guy.

Seeing that he dared to say anything, Yinzhen glanced at him and said, "Do you think the emperor would be willing to let him cry again like he did last time?"

"That's right." Yin'e thought about how heartbroken he was when the little one cried last time, and felt that the emperor would also be reluctant to let her go.

On the other side, Yinzhi and Yinzhen were also talking about the same topic.

"I don't know if Cheng'an can pass the test of the Emperor. If I had known earlier, I would have taken the time to teach him for a few more days..." Obviously, Yinzhi was also worried that the little guy would not be able to pass.

Yinzhen said calmly: "Cheng'an will definitely pass."

"I hope so, otherwise he will definitely cry again." After saying this, Yinzhi asked him to go to Yushedian together in the afternoon.

Palace of Heavenly Purity.

The level of Yinreng as a teacher was naturally impeccable, and the little student was also very smart. As long as Kangxi did not make things difficult for him, it was only a matter of time for him to pass the test.

"Not bad." After Kangxi finished the test, his originally serious expression relaxed, and it was obvious that he was quite satisfied with the little guy's performance.

Cheng An's eyes lit up immediately, and he ran to him in two steps, looking up at him expectantly: "Father, can I continue to study with my second brother?"

Kangxi thought about how he cried last time and wondered if he dared to let him go back to the Shangshufang.

Seeing him nod in affirmation, the little guy jumped up happily, reached out to hug him tightly, and then turned around to hug Yinreng.

"Did you hear that, brother? Ama said I can study with you forever!"

Yinreng felt his excitement and nodded at him with a smile.

"Great, I don't have to go to the study room~"

After the little guy hugged his brother happily for a while, he let him go and ran around the hall.

Seeing how he avoided the Shangshufang, Kangxi glanced at him unhappily and called him to his side.

"Ama~" The little guy was very happy at the moment. When he heard him calling, he immediately ran over.

"Don't think you can relax just because you are studying with your second brother..." After Kangxi called him over and gave him a few words of admonition, he then instructed Yinreng not to indulge the little guy too much.

"Your son will remember this." Yinreng bowed.

After Kangxi finished speaking, he rubbed the little guy's head and signaled them to go back and continue reading.

The little guy didn't have to get up early when studying with Yinreng, and the rest time was longer, which was enough for him to accompany the Empress Dowager, his mother, or run to help his father.

As for rest time, he was the same as Yinqi and the others. Except for the five days during the Chinese New Year, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Kangxi's birthday and his own birthday, he had one day off every half month given by Kangxi this year.

So after the examination, the little guy still has to continue to follow Yinreng back to Xian'an Palace to study.

afternoon.

Yinzhi and others came to the Yushe Hall at the same time, and it was obvious that they were all concerned about the little guy's subsequent studies.

The little guy was already very happy to see his brothers coming over, and when he heard them asking about the morning test, he immediately answered excitedly: "I know everything that Ama asked. Ama praised me for being good and said that I can study with my second brother~"

Hearing his cheerful voice, the brothers were infected by his good mood and started praising him one after another.

"I knew Cheng An would be fine."

"That's right, our Cheng'an is so smart."

"As expected of my brother, not bad!"

…

"Cheng An is really amazing."

When Cheng An heard his brothers’ praise, he smiled with sparkling eyes: “I feel embarrassed because of your praise…”

"Are you still embarrassed? Let Brother Shi see if you blush." ​​Yin'e was amused by him and couldn't help but reach out and hug him.

When the little guy heard what he said, he patted his face and said, "It's red now!"

"Are you stupid?" Yinzhen looked at him slapping his own face and pulled his hand down.

Yinzhen: "Tenth brother, let Cheng'an go. He still needs to practice riding and shooting."

Yin'e subconsciously put the person in his arms down, and then said: "Why are you in such a hurry? It's rare to encounter such a happy thing. I can't drink to celebrate, and I can't let Cheng'an relax a little."

When Yinxiang heard the words "drinking to celebrate", he suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask, "Twenty-year-old brother, are you going to move out of the palace soon?"

Seeing that everyone was gathered, Yin Yi was about to bring up this matter, but when he heard him ask, he took the opportunity to invite the brothers present to his house for a drink.

His mansion had been prepared long ago, but he had not moved in until Kangxi gave the order. During this period, the Ministry of Internal Affairs renovated the mansion according to his requirements, and he could move in at the end of the month.

No matter how good the palace is, it is never as comfortable as living in one's own house, so when Yin Yi mentioned this matter, there was a smile in his tone.

The brothers are on good terms with each other now, and after congratulating each other, they all said they would go.

"I want to go too, I want to go too!" The little guy listened for a while and then immediately jumped up and said.

Yin'e lowered his head and jokingly said, "You can't drink, so why go there?"

"Brother Ten is bad!"

When Yinzhi heard this, he reached out and picked up the little guy and said, "Tell me, what happened to him?"

"When I was a kid, Brother Ten lied to me and told me that milk was kumis!"

When Yinreng and others heard this, they couldn't help but laugh, obviously remembering the original situation.

"Whoever said it was milk, it was kumis." Yin'e denied.

The little guy puffed up his cheeks and said, "It's not kumis!"

"You've never drunk kumis, so how do you know it's not?"

"Look, you said yourself that I have never drunk kumis, huh!"

"Hahahaha..." Yinzhi couldn't help laughing, especially when he saw the little guy in his arms puffing up his cheeks and humming loudly.

Yinreng and the others also had smiles on their faces, obviously finding it amusing.

"I mean it's kumis..."

When Yin'e tried to argue for a while, the hard-to-fool kid said directly: "I can't drink now, and I couldn't drink when I was a child. Brother Shi, you are a liar!"

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen laughed out loud, and as a result, one person after another laughed, causing Yinxiang and the others to follow suit.

Yin'e heard their laughter and couldn't help but say, "I wasn't the only one who lied to you, they all had a part in it!"

"Tenth Master, please don't accuse me wrongly. I didn't say anything at that time." Yinzhi said with a smile.

Yinzhen had a rare smile on his face at this time. When he noticed the little guy looking at him, he said, "Fourth brother never said it was mare's milk."

The little guy had a good memory. He tilted his head and thought for a while. He seemed to remember that only Brother Ten said it was mare's milk wine. He immediately said, "It was Brother Ten who lied to me!"

Yin'e had never thought that the old accounts from a few years ago would be brought up again. He glared at the disloyal brothers around him and coaxed them, "It was Brother Ten's fault. Can't I buy you a string of candied haws to atone for your sin someday?"

"I don't want candied haws. I want to go to Twenty Brother's house with my brother to play."

"I can't make the decision on this. I need the emperor's consent." Yin'e shook his head.

Hearing this, the little guy changed his words and said, "Then I want two... three strings of candied haws!"

"Aren't you afraid of getting your teeth sore?" Yin'e said as he looked at the three fingers he stretched out in front of him.

In the end, Yin'e still used three candied haws to get him to reveal the story of "mare's milk wine". After that, everyone stopped chatting and accompanied the little guy to ride horses and shoot arrows.

The princes all had their own things to do, and half an hour later, Yinzhen and the others left one after another. Only Yinzhi, Yinreng, Yinyou, Yin'er, Yin'e, and Yinwei stayed with the little guy until the sun went down.

In the past, when the princes sent the little guy back to the Qianqing Palace, he would stick to his brothers for a while before he was willing to go in. But today, he didn't dawdle and just waved his hand and ran in by himself.

"He must be going to make trouble for the Emperor to go to Yin Yi's mansion." Yin'e guessed, looking at his back.

He guessed correctly. The little guy went to find Kangxi as soon as he entered.

Kangxi was practicing calligraphy behind his desk. When the little fellow saw him, he did not call him immediately, but quietly walked to his side. When he put down his pen, he praised him, "Father's handwriting is so beautiful, the strokes are so smooth!"

"First, tell me what 'the pen moves like a dragon' means." Kangxi lowered his head and looked at the little guy beside him with a look of admiration.

Cheng An: "It means the handwriting is beautiful~"

Kangxi raised his hand and tapped his forehead lightly, asking about his performance in the Sunshot Hall in the afternoon.

"I practiced archery this afternoon, and my elder brother praised me..."

After the little guy shared his performance in the Sun Shooting Hall, he looked up and asked, "Father, am I really good?"

Kangxi nodded casually, and then he heard him say, "Can I go to play at Twenty Brother's house?"

"If you don't study hard, you'll just be playing."

"Father, please let me go. My brothers are all going, and I want to go too!" The little guy hugged him and said coquettishly.

After being pestered by him from the time he came back until before going to bed at night, Kangxi finally gave in and agreed.

There was no way. The little guy didn't want to sleep alone in the first place, and when he saw that he didn't agree, he seemed to be trying to use this as an excuse to stay in his bedroom and not leave.

Kangxi thought that he was allowed to have a day off at the end of the month, so it would not be a bad thing for them brothers to get together, so he finally agreed.

"Ama, you are the best~"

Seeing that he always said these few words to comfort people, Kangxi pinched his face and sent him to the next room: "You know I am good, so be honest and sleep here obediently. If you go over there at night, don't even think about going out to play."

"Got it. Then Ama, can you wait until I fall asleep before leaving?"

Seeing his eager look, Kangxi couldn't say anything bad and just sat down beside the bed.

Speaking of the mansions of the princes outside the palace, the little guy had only been to Yinzhi's mansion when he was still imprisoned, and had never been to any other ones.

He was extremely looking forward to going to Yin Yi's mansion and "drinking" with his brothers.

"Ai'ai, do you know? I'm going to my brother's house to drink soon~"

"Did the emperor allow the young prince to drink?" Zhang Ruoai was a little skeptical.

"I don't drink, I watch my brothers drink."

When Zhang Ruoai learned that the 20th prince was going to leave the palace and host a banquet for all the princes, she couldn't help but remember that she had also attended a housewarming party at a relative's house, so she shared it with him.

The little guy heard that moving is called housewarming, and that gifts should be prepared when visiting the guest's home, so he went to rummage through his private room after school.

When Kangxi saw him taking out a jade ruyi from his private storehouse, he couldn't help but ask a question.

"This is a housewarming gift for my twentieth brother."

Kangxi chuckled: "You are quite polite."

After he finished speaking, he thought about it and decided to ask Liang Jiugong to pick out two suitable things from his private storehouse and let the little guy bring them over for him when the time comes.

"Father, aren't you going?" Cheng An couldn't help but ask when he heard him asking him to help take the group.

"I'm not free."

The little guy nodded and said to him, "Don't worry, I will bring it to you~"

On the last day of the first lunar month, Yinxi and his friends didn't have to study, so the brothers followed Yinreng out of the palace.

Yinzhi and his companions who lived outside the palace had already arrived. After being personally welcomed into the mansion by Yinyi, they sat in the lobby to drink tea and chat.

"Why hasn't Cheng'an come yet? I'll go and see." Yin'e seemed a little restless, so he stood up and walked out.

Yin Yi thought about it and decided to go out with him.

Not long after the two arrived outside the mansion, they saw a carriage slowly approaching.

"Tenth brother! Twenty brother!"

"Hey!" Yin'e heard the little guy's voice, responded and walked forward.

When the carriage stopped, the little guy came out most actively, and Yin'e immediately reached out and held him in his arms.

After Yinreng, Yinxi and others got off the car, Yinyi personally led them into the palace.

With the arrival of the little guy, the lobby suddenly became more lively.

"Brother Da, Brother San, Brother Si..."

The little guy was probably too excited to go out and play, and he didn't mind calling all his brothers before lying on Yinzhen's lap and drinking the water he fed him.

After drinking the water, he suddenly remembered something, turned around, took the gift he had prepared from Liu Cai and handed it to his brother: "Twenty is for you!"

Yin Yi didn't expect that he would bring a gift, and took it with a little surprise.

When Yinzhi and the others saw this, they all praised and joked about the little guy.

"And Ama's gift, I brought it here for him!"

"Thank you, Cheng'an." Yin Yi smiled and rubbed his head, preparing to put the jade ruyi he had given him in his study.

There was still some time before dinner, and seeing that everyone had arrived, Yin Yi took the initiative to offer to take them around his house.

"Brother Twenty, are you going to live here in the future?" the little guy asked curiously while walking around.

Yin Yi nodded: "Yes."

The prince's mansion is definitely one of the best in the capital, but it is still not as good as the imperial palace, so the little guy just came to visit for fun.

A group of princes walked around and chatted in the mansion and did not return to the lobby until almost noon.

The food and drinks had been prepared long ago and were served immediately when they sat down.

As soon as the little guy sat down, he saw a cuckoo chicken and immediately shouted with joy.

"You really can't get tired of this gourd chicken."

After Yin'e finished speaking, Yin'e looked at him and said, "It was you who insisted on mentioning this to him in the first place."

Yin Yi knew that the little guy liked to eat this, so he specially found a chef who could make gourd chicken. Seeing that he was really happy, he smiled and raised his glass to toast the brothers sitting there.

When the brothers raised their cups one after another, the little guy didn't make a fuss about drinking, but picked up the soup next to him and drank it.

"Are you using soup instead of wine?" Yinzhi joked.

When the little guy heard what he said, he held up his bowl of soup and wanted to clink glasses with him: "Brother, cheers~"

Yinzhi raised his glass and clinked it with his, then smiled and drank the rest of the wine.

There was gourd chicken on the table, and the little guy played with the soup for a while and then started to eat seriously.

It was rare for the brothers to get together to drink, but they hardly moved their chopsticks. They just held their glasses and drank and chatted.

"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, you have already left the palace and set up your own household." Yinzhi thought that Yinyi was not even born when he left the palace to set up his own household, and he suddenly felt a little emotional when looking at him.

Because of the big age gap between them, Yinzhi was not very familiar with this younger brother... no, it should be said that he was not very familiar with the later brothers. To be honest, it was only after the little guy was born that they got along more because of him.

"Yes, Cheng'an is six years old already. It feels like I just attended his third-day baptism yesterday, and yet he has grown so big in the blink of an eye." Yin'e said with deep sympathy.

When the little guy heard his name, he temporarily put down the chicken drumstick in his hand and looked up: "What do you mean by washing the third day?"

"Don't you remember? When you were taking a bath, Brother Ten hugged you. You smiled so cutely at that time." Yin'e recalled the scene with a smile on his face, "You have been close to Brother Ten since you were a child."

When Yinzhen heard his flattering words, he said, "If I remember correctly, you were holding Cheng'an and you were as stiff as a log, not daring to move."

"Why are you saying this!" Yin'e glared at him.

"Speaking of relatives, Cheng'an is almost the closest to me. When I was... in the mansion, he even went out of the palace to see me." Yinzhi couldn't help but recall the past.

Thinking about how he was still confined in the mansion at that time, he had forgotten the days. If it weren't for the little guy, he would never have been able to get out, and he might even have to go back to the battlefield. Yinzhi picked up the chopsticks and put the chicken wings of the gourd chicken into his bowl.

When the little guy saw the chicken wings in the bowl, he stopped talking and just lowered his head to continue eating.

"Brother, how dare you say that? Cheng'an came to see you with good intentions, but you ended up tearing his tail and making him cry." Yin'e said.

Yinzhi: "Even so, Cheng'an is not angry with me, and he even came to see me again!"

Yinreng heard his smug tone and reminded him lightly: "Cheng'an went to see me first."

"That's because you're closer in the palace, otherwise Cheng'an would definitely look at me first." After Yinzhi finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the little guy who was chewing chicken wings, "Cheng'an, don't you think so?"

The little guy blinked, handed over the half-eaten chicken wing and said, "Brother Da, do you want to eat it?"

"Eldest brother doesn't want to eat. Tell me, do you like eldest brother or second brother?" After a long time, Yinzhi competed with Yinreng again.

“I like them all!” said the little guy, then lowered his head and continued eating.

Yinsi saw that Yinzhi wanted to continue asking questions, so he changed the subject for the little guy and said, "Time really flies. Think about it, Cheng'an couldn't even speak clearly back then, but now he has started to learn to read and write."

"Speaking of this, it reminds me that my tenth brother wanted to teach Cheng'an to call me 'Tenth Brother', but he ended up learning it as 'Fourth Brother'." Yinzhen said with a smile.

When Yinzhen heard this, a smile appeared in his eyes.

"I remember that Cheng'an used to recite poems in a chirping voice. It's interesting to think about it." Yinxiang followed.

Yinlu also remembered this, and turned around to ask, "Cheng'an, what was that chirping?"

"Two orioles are chirping~" the little guy said with his head up.

Seeing that he still remembered this way of reading, the brothers all laughed.

Cheng An didn't understand what was so funny. Seeing that his brothers were just talking and not eating, he held the chopsticks and picked up food for them.

"Brother, eat quickly, don't just drink and talk."

"I think you are the elder brother, and you are controlling others." Yinzhen joked.

However, after the little guy got down from his chair and walked around the table to pick up some food for them, the brothers all lowered their heads and started eating.

The little guy saw his brothers eating well and nodded with satisfaction, while reminding them: "Eat more meat~"

With him around, it was difficult for the brothers to eat less, and after the meal, everyone was very full.

After lunch they did not drink any more wine but instead drank tea and continued chatting.

After chatting for a while, Yin'e thought of something and waved to the people around him to come forward and explain a few things.

A moment later, the servant beside Yin'e brought up candied haws on a plate.

"Candied haws!" The little fellow was sitting next to Yinreng, playing with the jade pendant on his waist. When he saw the candied haws out of the corner of his eye, he immediately ran to Yin'e.

"The candied haws I promised you last time." Before Yin'e handed him the plate, he asked, "Is Brother Shi still a bad guy?"

The little guy immediately shook his head and said, "Brother Shi, you are the best!"

Only then did Yin'e give him the candied haws with satisfaction.

After the little guy got the candied haws, he immediately shared them with his brothers. Yinzhi and the others were not interested at all. When they saw Yinxi and the others helping to finish some of them, they directly refused.

In the end, the little guy ate the whole string of candied haws by himself.

“The candied haws are really delicious~”

Just as the little fellow finished speaking, he suddenly felt a pain in his mouth. Before he could react, Yinreng noticed that blood was flowing out of his mouth and squatted in front of him with a slightly changed expression.

His action immediately attracted the attention of the brothers. When they saw blood on the little guy's mouth, they gathered around worriedly and asked, "Did he bite his mouth?"

"Cheng'an, open your mouth and let your second brother see." Yinreng coaxed him, holding his chin.

The little guy frowned, and after a while he slowly opened his mouth, and immediately more blood flowed out.

Yinreng discovered that he seemed to have lost a tooth, so he picked up the cup on the table next to him and motioned for the little guy to spit into it.

Cheng An obediently spat into the cup, and blood mixed with a white tooth fell into it, shocking him so much that his eyes widened instantly: "Brother, my tooth fell out!"
