Chapter 528: Fourth Master: ...You Can’t Force a Child
The Prince of Zhi narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists. Before he could utter a word, the Third Master had already quickly retreated more than ten steps.
He opened his folding fan with a snap, waved it leisurely, and said seriously, "Well, this plum blossom in the corner has a noble character."
The young eunuch holding a watering can in the corner was so frightened when he saw his master coming towards him that he almost dropped the can.
It took him a while to steady himself tremblingly, and he looked carefully at the plum blossoms in the corner that seemed to have no life at all. The plum blossoms were fine in winter, but at this time of year, they were all dead branches, and he could not see any elegance in them at all.
Could it be that not blooming is a sign of noble character?
After taking a close look at the mysterious expression of the Third Master, he couldn't help but think that a prince is a prince, and what he sees is indeed different from those of ordinary people like them.
On the other side, the Third Master wanted to prick up his ears, but he couldn't hear what his eldest brother and the Fourth Master were saying.
He was anxious for a moment. If he let him go over, he felt that it would be embarrassing. He frowned and pondered for a long time, but couldn't figure out the reason.
On the other side, Prince Zhi rubbed his hands and stamped his feet for a long time without saying a word.
The Fourth Master couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what do you want to say?"
I've been out for a long time, and I don't know if he's sober yet, and I don't know if the children are crying...
The Prince of Zhi gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, then said in a harsh voice, "I'm asking you, do you have any secrets to having sons? How did you give birth to these quadruplets?"
When these words were spoken, the Fourth Master was also stunned. Why were they all asking this?
How could he know how he was born? It was like this, like that, and then there were four. He was also confused.
"Hahaha! So that's what you're asking, big brother! Just say it openly, it's not shameful!"
I don't know when the Third Master came over from behind, and when he heard this, he immediately shouted.
He successfully made the Prince of Zhi throw a punch.
The Third Master was beaten and took several steps back. He immediately covered his eyes with his hands and looked aggrieved: "Why are you still hitting me?"
After rubbing his face, his eyes suddenly widened: "Don't hit people in the face, my peerless beauty! Today I must fight you!"
The next second he rushed forward, and in the blink of an eye the two began fighting.
The Fourth Master rubbed his forehead, not knowing how the situation had turned out like this.
The main thing is that his third brother is only at this level, so why is he still thinking about fighting with the eldest brother? How can he be so desperate?
In fact, it didn't take long for Prince Zhi to subdue the Third Master.
"Brother, well, let's talk it over. You just want to know how to give birth to four sons, right? Fourth brother just told me the secret. The secret is to exercise more, drink less alcohol, stay calm, drink five bowls of whole-grain porridge every day, and stand on your head for three hours at night."
Fourth Master: “…”
Well, more cruel than him.
Prince Zhi couldn't help but frown as he listened: "What kind of method is this?"
Subconsciously, I looked at the Fourth Master: "Is he right?"
The Fourth Master was silent for a moment, then said, "You can't force a child, big brother, just do it in moderation."
Seeing that the Fourth Master did not deny it, Prince Zhi immediately assumed that he had acquiesced and rubbed his hands, "Ah Jin, write this down quickly."
Despite his two black eyes, the Third Master still managed to smile. "This boss has his share of setbacks, right? Even though I can't beat him, can't I still use some tricks? Just wait for the consequences!" Thinking of this, the pain in his eyes suddenly subsided. He grinned and laughed.
The laughing Prince Zhi looked at him suspiciously for a long moment. How could he be so happy after being punched twice? The third brother was really stupid, his brain was getting worse day by day.
"Fifth Master is here, Seventh Master is here, Eighth Master is here~"
Just as they were about to go to the main hall, they heard the voice of the eunuch outside announcing something, so they turned around and came out to greet them.
"Congratulations, Fourth Brother, on having a baby boy." The Fifth Master and his companions congratulated the Fourth Master and gave their gifts to the attendants around him.
"Fourth brother is really in high spirits because of the good news. His face looks a little rosy. I never thought that Fourth brother would give birth to four sons in one pregnancy. I wonder if there is any secret recipe? Please tell the brothers too. It seems that our royal family has more offspring. What do you think?"
Mr. Ba said this in a sarcastic tone, without a trace of happiness on his face.
There was even a dark circle under his eyes, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.
How could the Eighth Master possibly sleep well? My eldest sister-in-law gave birth to another princess a while ago, and now my eldest brother has given birth to three girls.
As for my wife, she kept drinking the medicine, but there was no movement in her stomach.
But my second brother has two sons.
Fourth brother also has two sons. If he has another child, he will have the most sons among the princes.
I also heard that his concubine was pregnant with twins. If she gave birth to two sons in one pregnancy, it would be even more extraordinary.
He had been waiting for news until midnight, but who would have thought that what he finally got was that his fourth brother had four sons!
When the Eighth Master first heard the news in the court, he almost fainted.
This is too discouraging.
From then on, regardless of other things, at least in terms of offspring, the fourth brother has always had an absolute advantage. How can we compete with him?
It happened at such a time, when the Emperor was worried about the affairs of the court. When the fourth child was announced, a general amnesty was granted, and the people were reconciled. This completely relieved the Emperor's worries.
Nowadays, this is almost everything people talk about in the streets and alleys.
The Emperor now values these children extremely highly. Judging from his behavior just now, he might even come to Fourth Brother's house to see the children himself.
Mr. Ba thought about it for a whole day but still couldn't think of a good way to deal with it. His face became even darker.
Seeing the Eighth Master like this, the Third Master felt a little unhappy. He asked for the secret recipe with such a sarcastic look. Who owed him money?
He then said, "Eighth Brother, Fourth Brother told us the method. He said that drinking five bowls of mixed grain porridge every day and squatting in horse stance for three hours will help conceive a child."
Seeing Eighth Master looking over with a frown, Third Master patted his chest and said, "A famous country doctor said so. Fourth Master tried this method and unexpectedly had so many children. But it depends on the individual. Eighth Master, don't push it too much. You two have only been married for a short time. There's no rush, absolutely no rush."
As the Third Master spoke with such detail, the Eighth Master silently memorized the method in his mind, thinking that it might be worth a try later.
The Fifth Master also breathed a sigh of relief. His mother had been urging him today to find a way to get the information out of his Fourth Brother about how to have four children, but he never expected that he would get it without any effort.
The Seventh Master was also happy, and the smile on his lips deepened a little.
The Fourth Master silently glanced at his Seventh Brother, with whom he had been close since childhood, and thought to himself, "This kid looks so honest, I've already taken him to heart." He should probably send someone to tell him later, lest he actually get an upset stomach from drinking.
The Fourth Master looked around and found that there were about twelve, thirteen or fourteen children missing from the crowd, so he simply asked someone to go to the door to check.
The young eunuch immediately ran out the door. When he returned, his face was flushed. He bowed and pointed, saying, "Your Highness, the royal carriage is almost at the gate!"
The Fourth Master was also shocked when he heard this: "The Emperor is here?"
The young eunuch said, "I see the Crown Prince's carriage and the officials are coming along."
