Chapter 265 Let the Fourth Brother Come to Test the Teacher
Thirteen looked at the expressions of his two brothers and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
To be honest, his mentality has been tempered recently. Seeing this scene, he actually felt that it was natural.
Seeing that the Emperor and Little Fourteen also looked shocked, Thirteen felt a lot more relieved in his strange heart.
I thought to myself, there will be more surprises for them in the future!
"You can eat if you want. If you eat today, you will have to endure it in the future. Indulging in your appetite is not good for you right now."
The Fourth Master has decided that when the little girl cooks again, he will make sure that the Ninth and Eleventh Masters won’t be able to touch them at all!
The Ninth Master and the Tenth Master clearly understood the implication of the Fourth Master's words, and they exchanged a glance...
"Fourth brother, Old Eleven and I have always taken the best care of Little Fourteen." Jiu Ye immediately touched Fourteen's head and said, "Fourteen, you want to eat, right? Come, try it quickly. Jiu Ye will give you all of this."
Master Shi also nodded: "Little Fourteen, have a bite...um...don't take too big a bite..."
The Tenth Master sent it out, but felt reluctant to part with it, so he pulled half of it back.
Fourteen was a little overwhelmed by these two people. He always felt that this matter was a bit weird, and for a moment he didn't dare to take their spicy chips.
Emperor Kangxi still couldn't figure out why the two naughty children, the ninth and tenth brothers, suddenly listened to the fourth brother.
However, he was happy to see it happen. He was too lazy to care about these annoying things.
Now that someone else was able to manage them, Emperor Kangxi suddenly felt cheerful and said, "Fourth Brother, from now on, you should pay more attention to their riding and archery skills."
As soon as these words were spoken, the four people below, except Thirteen, all began to wail.
"Your Majesty, I don't want that! I have worked very hard during this period. Fourth brother just came back, let him have a good rest!" Fourteen said.
"Right, right, right," the Tenth Master nodded vigorously, "Fourteenth is right. Father Royal, Fourth Brother is exhausted from this trip, let him take a break."
Jiu Ye also nodded. "That's right. Father Huang, you see, Fourth Brother has lost weight recently. This time in Jinyang, Fourth Brother has been busy without sleep. My son also fell seriously ill. If it weren't for Fourth Brother's hard work day and night, my son might not have survived to see Father Huang.
Fourth brother has worked so hard and made so many contributions, the Emperor should at least let him have some rest."
The Tenth Master nodded frantically behind the Ninth Master: "Yes, yes, yes, yes!"
Emperor Kangxi listened, his expression becoming serious. He knew that the ninth brother was ill, but when the fourth brother mentioned him in the letter, he had already recovered. He didn't know that the ninth brother's condition was so serious.
He frowned and asked, "How is your health now?"
Jiu Ye immediately said, "Fourth Brother's prescription arrived just in time, and our son has recovered. Fourth Sister-in-law also made delicious food for us every day, so he has recovered a lot.
You see, my son is very strong now."
Having said this, he knocked his chest twice.
Emperor Kangxi glanced at his sons and saw that although they were darker and thinner, they were much more energetic. He nodded and said, "Fourth son, you are exhausted. I will allow you to rest for a few days."
When these words were spoken, the Fourth Master beside him did not react, but the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master over there actually cheered loudly.
Emperor Kangxi looked at them and added, "After they have rested, I will look after their studies."
With just one word, Jiu Ye and the others immediately became dejected, like eggplants hit by frost.
Emperor Kangxi was addicted to playing, and said quietly: "Next month's assessment, let the fourth brother take the test."
This statement caused another wailing. Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
There was some resentment in Jiu Ye's eyes at this time.
I had thought that I would at least have a few days to rest. After returning to Beijing, my fourth brother would definitely be even busier and might not have time to look after them.
After all, they don't live together all day like they did in Jinyang.
I didn’t expect that the Emperor would even ask Fourth Brother to take the assessment!
The emperor set a rule that on the first day of every month, they would be tested on their schoolwork and riding and archery.
Usually the emperor is in charge, and the emperor's grandmother and concubines in the harem will sometimes come to take a look.
During the semi-annual examination, all the ministers in the court and the outstanding direct descendants of major families will be present.
In the past, the eldest brother and the prince took turns to test the teachers.
The eldest brother is a straightforward person. He will send people down if they are defeated.
The Crown Prince is the most gentle of all, and usually keeps his words to a certain point, leaving everyone with dignity.
But his fourth brother is completely different!
When Lao Shi and I faced him, we were beaten black and blue, but he would still drag us out and beat us up. He wasn't afraid of offending anyone, and he didn't care about your face. Everything was decided by fists.
The thought of being beaten up by the Fourth Master made the Ninth Master's scalp tingle.
Thirteenth frowned slightly. This year was the 38th year of the Emperor's reign. Logically, Fourth Brother hadn't made a name for himself yet. What was going on?
If I remember correctly, Fourth Brother never tested them on their homework from beginning to end.
In the early years, the emperor attached great importance to their studies and had to test them every month, with the eldest and second brothers taking turns.
Later, when the eldest brother was imprisoned, the emperor was no longer in the mood to teach them, so the monthly exams were cancelled.
Right now, the eldest brother and the second brother are secretly competing with each other, and the monthly test is a sign of their dominance.
Fourth Brother now had this opportunity... Thirteen had a feeling it wasn't a good thing. He looked towards the Fourth Master with some concern.
The Fourth Master obviously understood this as well. He stepped forward and clasped his fists, saying, "Father Your Majesty, I am still young and I'm afraid I can't handle it. Let my second and eldest brothers do it."
Emperor Kangxi didn't care much and just waved his hand, saying, "You're young, just learn more. I think you're good, so it's okay to give it a try."
The Fourth Master saw that Emperor Kangxi had already made his decision, so he could only clasp his fists in agreement. He glanced at the sky and said, "Father Your Majesty, it's getting late. How about I accompany you to the Heavenly Prison early?"
Just now, the Emperor said that he wanted to go to the Heavenly Prison with him to personally interrogate Liu Yu and those rebels.
The Fourth Master calculated the journey time and it would take at least an hour.
The little girl is still waiting in the East Third Prison. We arranged for her to meet her father. I wonder if the little girl is happy.
No one has lived in the East Third House for a long time, and the Fourth Master was a little worried about leaving her there.
"No rush," Emperor Kangxi now turned his attention to the bag of spicy chips in the hands of the Ninth and Tenth Masters.
"What's the name of this thing in your hands? Also, I just heard you guys mention instant noodles, what are those?"
If I remember correctly, I seemed to have heard these brats talking about Little Fourth Sister-in-law?
Ulanara is older than all of them, so why is she called the Fourth Sister-in-law?
Emperor Kangxi felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult to understand what these young people were saying.
