Chapter 198 Brother Jiu, why are you so heartless?
Although the emperor had high expectations for them, he was stricter with his older brothers. Relatively speaking, he was more relaxed with the younger ones.
In addition, both he and the tenth brother had criminal records with the emperor, so the emperor often turned a blind eye and did not blame them too much.
But the fourth brother is different. He doesn't care who it is. He does things meticulously and won't let anything go.
Just like the things happening in the yamen now, they are not prevented from touching them just because they have never come into contact with them. Instead, they are involved in everything.
As for training, Jiu Ye knew his own weaknesses. While his strength was far behind that of Fourth Brother and Old Ten, his agility was relatively superior. The Andas had always played to his strengths and avoided his weaknesses, focusing on training his speed and agility. However, he hadn't made any progress in recent years.
Fourth brother took him to practice, but he would not relax the strength training just because he was not strong enough. Instead, he did the same heavy basic training as the tenth brother.
After practicing with Fourth Brother for a few days, I have noticed that my Kung Fu has improved significantly.
The tenth brother has made great progress in writing. Although there is still a gap between them, he has made rapid progress after being scolded several times by his fourth brother.
Now that they have come into contact, Jiu Ye truly feels the pressure from his fourth brother.
Although they all called him the Barbarian Fourth Brother, he didn't just despise them in terms of force. He was also far beyond their reach in terms of writing and matters of state and government.
How could they not be happy when such a fourth brother praised them?
"Nineth brother, did you receive the letter that eighth brother sent you?" Tenth Master suddenly seemed to remember something and asked.
Jiu Ye came back to his senses and nodded, "What's wrong?"
The Tenth Master frowned and scratched his forehead: "I don't know what to do."
Jiu Ye raised his eyebrows: "What did my brother say?" The letter to him was just a greeting. After reading it, Jiu Ye just reported that he was safe and picked up two interesting things to tell him.
The Tenth Master said, "Eighth Brother asked about Fourth Brother intentionally or unintentionally..."
Ninth Master subconsciously looked towards Fourth Master who was farther ahead, and suddenly said, "Let me see."
The Tenth Master took it out directly from his arms and handed it to the Ninth Master.
After reading ten lines at a glance, Jiu Ye frowned slightly.
"Old Ten, what do you think?"
Jiu Ye was actually a little angry. This letter from Eighth Brother was really good. There wasn't a single word of concern for Tenth Brother in the whole letter. Half of it was lectures, and the other half was just inquiries about Fourth Brother. The letter was so straightforward that Jiu Ye couldn't believe it was written by Eighth Brother.
If you were to say it, the status and position of the Tenth Prince's mother's family was not inferior to any of the princes, and was even higher. Even though he was usually a bit straightforward, he couldn't be fooled!
Jiu Ye suppressed his anger and turned his gaze to his younger brother, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Tenth Master only said, "I don't want to tell Eighth Brother about Fourth Brother's affairs, and I'm afraid Eighth Brother will be angry."
He felt happy every time he went out these days. Although he was often scolded and punished by his fourth brother, and sometimes forced to drink a big bowl of white porridge by his fourth brother, his fourth brother rarely made decisions for him.
When he was in Beijing before, people around him would tell him directly what was the best way to do it, but Fourth Brother let him figure out the best way on his own.
Although he didn't quite understand the difference, he felt more comfortable with his fourth brother than with his eighth brother.
His brain wasn't very good, but even if it wasn't, he knew that Eighth Brother and Fourth Brother had been at odds since they were young.
In the past, he wouldn't think much about the letter when he saw it, and would just answer whatever the starling asked.
But today, after spending some time with his fourth brother in the yamen, he has also learned to think twice before acting.
Fourth Brother once said that thinking twice before acting is simple, which means that he should look at things from the perspective of at least three people before doing anything.
"Nineth brother, what do you think Eighth brother wants to do by asking about Fourth brother's affairs?" Tenth Master couldn't help but ask.
Jiu Ye sneered: "Who knows what he is going to do?" He even wanted to use his own brothers. He really underestimated the starling.
"Nineth brother, are you angry?" Tenth Master blinked twice and asked in surprise.
The Ninth Master looked at the Tenth Master and suddenly realized a serious problem: "Did Eighth Brother write to you in the past in this tone?"
The Tenth Master scratched his forehead and said, "Myna rarely wrote to me before, and we never traveled this far."
"Did he always teach you like this before?" Jiu Ye gritted his teeth.
The Tenth Master said quietly, "Ninth Brother, don't you always call me stupid?"
Jiu Ye: “…”
"How can that be the same!" Ninth Brother glared at him fiercely: "You fool, no one can teach you a lesson like this except me!"
Tenth Master: "Earlier, the Emperor also said I was stupid..."
Jiu Ye: "...Emperor Father doesn't count either."
Tenth Master: "Oh, Fourth Brother also said I was stupid before, and told me to learn how to be a slow bird that flies first."
Jiu Ye: "...Fourth Brother doesn't count either!"
Master Shi: "Ah, only the mynah bird cannot be taught a lesson."
Jiu Ye: “…” His younger brother is really stupid, he can’t even tell the difference between good and bad words!
"How can words meant for your own good be the same as a harsh lesson?"
Master Shi felt that his Ninth Brother was about to get really angry, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Ninth Brother, stop scolding me. Tell me how to reply to this letter."
Jiu Ye's eyes rolled and he said, "Humph, if Big Brother wants to know, just tell him."
Tenth Master suddenly glared: "Ninth Brother, how can you be so heartless? Eighth Brother is the elder brother, but Fourth Brother is not the elder brother? Fourth Sister-in-law sends you delicious food every day, it's really feeding you like a dog."
Jiu Ye rolled his eyes: "I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you so excited?"
Then, he said slowly: "Just tell me about the delicious food made by little fourth sister-in-law, and also talk about the white porridge that fourth brother gave us."
Master Shi started scratching his head again: "Why is this happening?"
Jiu Ye only said: "I want to go by myself."
Oh, if the starling wants to know, then let him know as much as he wants. Suddenly remembering something, he added, "Show me when you finish writing it."
As he said this, he kicked the horse's belly and immediately accelerated to chase after the Fourth Master.
Master Shi racked his brains for a while, and when he came to his senses, he found that he was far behind.
"Nineth brother, wait for me!" The Tenth Master put away his letter and immediately chased after him.
The Fourth Master in front was not walking fast. Since he was going out of the city, he wanted to hunt some game along the way. He had a longbow in his hand, but he had not shot a single arrow.
"Fourth brother, why don't we go deeper into the forest and take a look? All the ones outside have been eaten." said Jiu Ye.
The Fourth Master nodded and said, "Alright, let's go after we return from visiting the patients outside the city."
