Chapter 554 A bunch of fools? ?
Fourth Master: “…I learned it.”
Seeing everyone around him stunned again, the Fourth Master added, "I learned this from Aunt Gui."
Everyone: “…”
Are these the same thing?
The question is why do you want to learn this? Whose male master needs to change diapers?
Not to mention the royal family, even the common people today... The grown men in the family don't change diapers at home? What's going on?
The Third Master beside him also came back to his senses at this moment, and couldn't help but whisper to the person on his left: "Can you change diapers?"
The person next to him ignored him, so he bumped into him and said, "Hey? Tell me, is this easy to learn? Hey? I'm talking to you!"
After muttering for a while, no one paid any attention to him. The Third Master suddenly felt a little unhappy and went to take a look with a frown. He was immediately met with the Crown Prince's extremely indifferent face...
The prince said: "...Do you think I can do it?"
The question is who can change diapers? Shouldn't we now explore why the fourth child has the nerve to change diapers for the children?
Is there something wrong with me, or is there something wrong with this third brother's brain?
The Third Master swallowed hard and said, "Excuse me, Second Brother. You are busy. Sorry to bother you."
He looked at the person on his right and saw that it was Lao Wu, who was also looking at him as if he was a fool.
The Third Master immediately slapped himself in the face. "What kind of place are you standing in?" he asked, and immediately turned around to look for his own team.
"Can you change a diaper? Is it difficult?" Jiu Ye touched his chin and pondered.
"No," Master Ten said honestly. He turned to look at Master Fourteen: "Can you?"
"No." Fourteen turned to look at Thirteen: "Will Thirteen Brother know how to do it?"
Thirteenth Master: “…No.”
"I can't do it either!" The Third Master raised his hands behind him and shouted happily.
Well, this is where I should be.
Eighth Master: “…”
A bunch of fools.
"Wow~Wow~"
Just as everyone was still figuring out what was happening, another howl suddenly erupted. Then another one followed. The fourth one was the quietest of the group, but the other three howled in unison, filling the entire hall with a deafening roar.
The three children cried like an army of thousands.
Everyone in the room was stunned once again. Especially the older men who had never had much contact with children. They didn't know what to do.
The female member of the household also felt distressed and couldn't help but step forward and offer to help, but the Fourth Master was useless.
He looked at his sons calmly, then glanced at the sunset clock hanging above: "Father, I'm afraid we'll have to wait a while."
These guys are very organized. Once one takes the lead, I'm sure others will follow.
Jiu'er would panic whenever he encountered such a situation, and eight out of ten times he would have to solve the problem himself.
The Fourth Master had been practicing for the past two days, and he was able to change all three children in no time.
Even the wet nurse next to him didn't help much. In the end, she just brought a basin of water to help the Fourth Master wash his hands.
The children were all awake now, staring at the Fourth Master with their big black eyes.
Seeing that his father was not sure what to think, the Fourth Master immediately followed the procedure: "Shall we begin?"
Emperor Kangxi didn't say anything, so the Fourth Master took it as his consent and immediately ordered his servants to get ready.
Following the Fourth Master's words, the servants once again added water to the large nanmu plate.
"A steady stream of water brings prosperity and wealth."
The host was none other than Aunt Gui. Aunt Gui said loudly again:
"Wash your hair and become a king—"
"etc!"
This end had just begun when a sound was suddenly heard coming from outside the door.
Who has the guts to interrupt the fourth master's young prince's third-day baptism ceremony in public?
Everyone had just come back to their senses from the scene of the Fourth Master changing his diaper, and when they saw the people outside, they were stunned again.
Emperor Kangxi was also looking out with a frown on his face. The next second, his expression froze. He immediately walked over to greet him.
Defei didn't have time to hold the child at this moment, and immediately followed Emperor Kangxi to pay her respects.
"Empress Dowager, why are you here? Auntie...you're here too?"
Emperor Kangxi immediately went over and supported the two of them.
The Empress Dowager rolled her eyes at Emperor Kangxi and said, "I went out of my way to bring my aunt here this morning, but you were so stubborn that you came straight out of the palace without even waiting for us!"
"Your servant greets His Majesty, may the Emperor be blessed." Su Malagu also saluted Emperor Kangxi with a smile on her face.
He had only done half of it when he was immediately supported by Emperor Kangxi.
"Aunt, there's no need to be so polite." Emperor Kangxi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He could have hidden from the Empress Dowager and wanted to get out as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would still chase him. What's more, she even brought his aunt with her.
"Aunt, come here, take your time. I'll take you to see the child. He's growing up very well."
The Empress Dowager took Su Malagu's hand, and the two of them walked into the main hall.
The ministers also widened their eyes in shock. The only person in the world who could be called aunt by both the emperor and the empress dowager was Su Malagu.
Although she was a woman, she served as a court lady to the Grand Empress Dowager, a senior figure in her rank. She had served three dynasties and was the Emperor's tutor. And now, the Emperor even placed the Twelfth Prince with Sumalagu. It's no exaggeration to say that she was the most blessed woman to have been exiled by the Empress Dowager.
The third day bathing ceremony at the Fourth Master’s residence was truly a gathering of immortals.
The Empress Dowager pulled Su Malagu in and immediately replaced Concubine De's position.
"These little guys are so handsome. Let's enjoy them later. It's almost the auspicious time, right? Let's finish the third-day bathing ceremony first." The Queen Mother said with a smile on her face.
With the Empress Dowager and Su Malagu above her, Concubine De had obviously retreated to the second line. For a while, she could only watch helplessly.
Princess Gong looked at this and strangely felt a lot more at ease.
In reality, the Empress Dowager felt that Concubine De was being unfair to the children by attending the third day bath. She had no fondness for her daughter-in-law, and she was thinking, "Don't let the children have her temper."
After all, I was a little worried, so I just came here by myself.
Aunt Gui took a look and continued...
"Wash your hair and become a king—"
"Wash your hands, and you will have gold, silver and treasures every year—"
"Wash your back for good fortune and prosperity—"
"Wash your feet, live a long life, grow old together..."
They wouldn't actually let the two old ladies wash the baby; it was just a formality. When the wet nurses were washing, the Empress Dowager and Su Malagu would just touch the spot with water. Everything went on in an orderly manner.
The ministers now looked at the child, then at the Fourth Master. Their expressions were very interesting, and it was obvious that they were all in a dilemma.
Including Tong Guowei, people said that the Tongjia clan was the Tong half dynasty, and when they stamped their feet, the court would tremble three times. But at this moment, he was also confused about the situation.
Although His Majesty has been kind to the Crown Prince over the years, he has actually given him the same authority as an ordinary prince. He also tacitly allowed the Prince of Zhi to provoke the Crown Prince and never punished him severely.
I don’t know what other considerations His Majesty has regarding the succession to the throne.
Now the Fourth Master has risen to prominence. The authority His Majesty has bestowed upon the Fourth Master grows day by day, seemingly surpassing even that of the Crown Prince.
Tong Guowei guessed that the emperor might just want to train a capable assistant for the prince, right?
Now it seems that according to the Fourth Master's current power, coupled with the popularity he has gained by giving birth to four sons in a row, if he raises his arms and shouts, he will definitely have more followers than the Crown Prince.
But he didn't quite understand what the Fourth Master was doing.
Today is such a great opportunity to win over the ministers, but he is helping a child change his diaper in public. What is going on?
