“No… ah…”

Regarding Cheng'an's explanation that he was not a kitten but a dragon, Yinzhen and others still didn't understand and just thought he was saying that he was not a kitten.

"Look at me, I can kill a little tiger with one punch."

After Yinzhen finished speaking, he supported his back with one hand and clenched his other hand into a fist and punched the cloth tiger in front of him, knocking both the cloth tiger and the man onto the couch.

Of course, he didn't dare to really use any strength. In fact, he cooperated with the hands behind him to hold him down on the couch and tease him.

Cheng An, who was "knocked down", held the cloth tiger in his arms for a moment, then laughed again, then got up and shouted again: "Awoo~"

A moment later——

"No, I can't stand it anymore. Who of you can play with him for a while?" Yinzhen never expected that he just casually "knocked him down" to tease him once, but he became addicted to it. After a while, he pulled him to repeat it countless times.

Even though he was the one who was "knocked down", in fact, it was Yinzhen who had to put in more effort. After all, he was not really knocked down, but he was held down by using both hands, and he had to be careful not to let him bump into anything.

Of course, even after repeating it so many times, Yinzhen still has the energy to do it. The main reason is that it would be too boring after so many times, and probably he would be the only one who would find it interesting.

Who told you to tease him?

Yinzhen thought to himself and gave a helpless look in response.

Seeing that the little guy was obviously addicted to playing, Yinsi, who felt that he did not have enough energy to play with him, also shook his head.

"Watch me." In the end, Yin'e stood up, but he did not continue playing like Yinzhen did before. Instead, he snatched the cloth tiger into his own hands.

Um?

When Cheng An saw his tenth brother take the cloth tiger away, he tilted his head and looked at him for a while, his eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his fist to hit him, imitating Yin Zhen's previous sound: "Hey~"

"Ah..." As soon as his little fist touched the cloth tiger, Yin'e fell half of his body onto the couch.

Cheng An chuckled at this.

Yinzhen, on the other hand, shook his head slightly, thinking that the one being beaten must be even more tired than he was by having to stand up and fall down repeatedly.

However, he was wrong, because Yin'e did not get up after he fell down.

After Cheng An finished laughing, he stood beside him for a while. Seeing him lying there motionless, he couldn't help but say, "Brother, ah..."

"Oh, I was knocked down and can't get up." Yin'e vaguely guessed that he was asking him to get up, so he lay down steadily holding the cloth tiger.

Upon hearing this, Cheng'an immediately squatted down and pulled him, but with his limited strength, there was no way he could pull up a creature as big as Yin'e.

After trying hard for a long time, he only managed to lift one of his hands. Cheng An couldn't help but turn his head to look at his other brothers: "Brother..."

Seeing that he still knew to ask for help, Yinsi smiled and stretched out a hand to help pull it.

However, Yin'e didn't want to get up, and it was impossible for him to get up just by sitting there.

Seeing that his brother was helping him, Cheng'an stretched out his little hands and started pulling hard. Finally, it was Yinzhen who saw that his little face was almost turning red, so he helped to pull Yin'e up from the couch.

"Wow..." Seeing that the tenth brother was finally pulled up, Cheng'an clapped his hands with joy.

In addition to the cloth tiger, Yin'e also brought other small toys. After playing with them for a while, the few of them were almost ready to leave.

"Let's coax him to sleep before we leave." Thinking of how he would make a fuss every time they left, Yin'e whispered.

Yinzhen glanced at the little guy shaking the rattle and said in a low voice, "With how excited he is right now, do you think he can fall asleep in a short time?"

Today, several brothers played with him and brought a lot of new toys. Cheng'an had so much fun that he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Yin'e looked at his happy expression and thought that he probably couldn't sleep, but when he thought about how he cried as if he was abandoned every time they left, he felt a little reluctant.

"How about talking to him and telling him that we will come to see him again in two days?" Yin'e said, and without waiting for Yin'er and the others to give their opinions, he directly discussed with Cheng'an who was playing with a rattle.

Yinzhen thought that his idea was not very good. After all, a young guy didn't even know how to write the word "reason", so how could he be expected to listen to reason.

Speaking of reason, Cheng'an was still reasonable sometimes. For example, he used to like to move all the little toys to the bed to play with. One time, Kangxi was hit by a jade pendant while sleeping and he reasoned with him, but he still listened. After that, he only played on the couch or the Arhat bed.

However, at this moment, when he heard Yin'e say that he was leaving, he refused to listen to any reason and threw away the splash drum in his hand, rushed over and hugged him, saying, "Brother, no..."

If Yin'e had been able to escape unexpectedly before, now he was entangled by him and couldn't leave even if he wanted to.

Seeing that he was beginning to be dumbfounded, Yinzhen gave him a look that said "figure it out yourself".

"Mynah bird..." What else could Yin'e do? He could only ask for help from his own mynah bird, which had a better brain.

Yinsi met his pleading eyes and stretched out his hand, saying, "Cheng'an, come to my brother."

They are all brothers, so there is no difference between them. Cheng An turned around without hesitation and ran over to throw himself into his arms.

After Yinsi received the person, he lowered his head and said, "How about I read to you, my dear brother?"

They had played too loudly just now, so he thought of reading a book to calm him down, and maybe coax him to sleep.

"Yeah." As long as his brother doesn't leave, Cheng'an will naturally not refuse.

When Yinsi saw him nod, he didn't ask anyone to bring a book, but read to him whatever he remembered.

Cheng An listened quietly, only raising his little hands to clap every time he paused.

The warm room finally became quiet from being noisy, and for a moment there was only the clear sound of reading and occasional applause.

Yin'e saw that Cheng'an started by clapping with his hands, and then, perhaps because he was tired, he began to clap with his feet. A smile appeared in his eyes. He thought that if it was not inconvenient to stay in the Qianqing Palace for too long, he would be happy to play with him for a whole day.

The sound of reading in a "zhihuzheya" manner is really a good lullaby, especially since Yinsi deliberately lowered his voice.

Cheng'an listened attentively at first, then slowly put down his hands, and after a while he stopped clapping his feet, and then his eyes began to close slowly.

"Falling asleep!" Yin'e was a little excited.

However, because of his voice, the little guy who had just closed his eyes opened his eyes a little again, until Yinsi continued to read while reaching out and patted his little chest a few times before closing his eyes again.

Yin'e silently raised his hand and made a gesture towards Yin'e to hit him, and Yin'e quickly reached out to cover his mouth.

Yinzhen, who was standing by, felt that it was not easy to see his brother finally fall asleep, and even subconsciously restrained his breathing.

Finally, after the person in his arms fell asleep, Yinsi reached out to touch his soft little face, and slowly moved the person from his arms to the couch.

"elder brother……"

The person who was moved closed his eyes and made a sound. The brothers nearby were immediately worried, and they did not feel relieved until they realized that he was not awake.

After pulling a small quilt from the couch to cover him, Yinsi placed the cloth tiger he had been playing with next to him.

The little guy looked even more obedient after falling asleep. The older brothers gathered together and watched him for a while before getting ready to leave.

"Take good care of the little brother."

Before leaving, they did not forget to whisper instructions, and only left after seeing the eunuchs and palace maids in the warm room nod.

Kangxi was a little busy that day and did not return until dinner time.

As soon as he came back, he saw his little son wearing a tiger-head hat. Just as he was admiring it, he saw his little son rushing towards him holding a cloth tiger.

“Ouch~”

Cheng'an's tiger-head hat was naturally taken off when he went to sleep. After he woke up, he touched the hat and put it back on.

Kangxi looked at the "little tiger" running towards him, bent down and picked him up, touched the tiger hat on his head and said, "Where did this little tiger come from?"

Before Yinsi and others came to see Cheng'an, they first paid their respects to Kangxi, so he knew without asking that things like the tiger-head hat must have been brought by them.

The hat looked quite chubby on his youngest son, so Kangxi thought he could ask the palace to make a few more for him.

"No, brain axe... yeah, dragon..."

Hearing his father also call him a jerk, Cheng An shook his head and explained.

Brain ax?

Kangxi wanted to laugh when he heard his tone, but after turning the words over in his mind several times, he guessed what he meant: "It's not a tiger, but a dragon?"

"Yeah." Seeing that he understood, Cheng An nodded happily.

The emperor was the true dragon emperor, and the princes were also known as dragon sons, so when Kangxi heard his words, he didn't think much about it and just regarded them as childish talk.

"Then what are you holding in your arms?" Kangxi asked.

Cheng An immediately raised the cloth tiger in his hand and said, "Brain axe, ow!"

Kangxi was amused by him and chuckled, then asked, "Who taught you?"

"Brother." Cheng An said as he moved the cloth tiger in front of him to scare him.

"It's a tiger, not a brain axe." Kangxi corrected him casually and took him to have dinner.

After finishing the meal, Kangxi began to have a headache because -

“Ouch~”

“Awooooo ...

After having eaten and drunk his fill, Cheng'an was in very good spirits. Not only was he running around with the cloth tiger in his arms, he was also barking non-stop.

When Kangxi said something to him, he would be quiet for a while, but after a while he would start barking again, as if there were a group of little tiger cubs in the palace.

He originally wanted to practice calligraphy, but because of his disturbance he couldn't continue at all.

Thinking that he might be so noisy because he didn't play with him, Kangxi simply put down his pen and hugged him while sitting on the couch.

When Cheng'an saw that his father had finished his work, he immediately pulled him to play the "beat the tiger" game.

Kangxi didn't want to play with him at first and wanted him to be quiet for a while. However, the little guy was too good at acting coquettish, and he couldn't stand it after hearing him call "Ama" in a baby voice.

So all night long, the "wow" sound in the hall never stopped.

Lao Shi and the others are so idle that they don’t even have much time to spare to teach us this!

After Kangxi passively played with him for a while, he couldn't bear to scold the youngest son in his arms, so he scolded his older sons in his heart.

Yin'e, who was far away from the palace, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and couldn't help thinking: Cheng'an must be missing me, but it's a pity that I can't go to the Qianqing Palace every day...
