Chapter 734: Talk to your children more honestly!
Some things that seemed ordinary in the past always appear in my mind again and again after I happen to them again.
For example, when his fourth brother was practicing archery with him when he was still young, he would always say, "A man like me must fight on the battlefield and personally guard the vast land of the Qing Dynasty, only then will this life be worthwhile."
The fourth brother also said: "Thirteen, when the second brother ascends the throne, I will travel around the world, and then go to the frontier, to taste the wind and sand of the desert, and taste the iron blood of the army."
What did I say then? Perhaps I was telling my fourth brother that I wanted to follow him, even if it meant becoming a bound foot.
Didn’t I think the same thing at that time?
But in the end, they all became sickly.
My fourth brother wanted to travel around the world, but after he came to power, he never left the capital again.
The courtiers flattered him by presenting him with a portrait of his elder brother, the background of which depicted the customs of various places. His elder brother usually disliked such behavior, but that time he made an exception.
He knew that those portraits had been locked in the pillow by his fourth brother.
Your Majesty, has Fourth Brother ever been happy for a single day?
It seems that his fourth brother has never made his own choice.
"Brother Thirteen, please make way. What are you thinking about?"
Fourteen then stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Thirteen, then gently pushed Thirteen's arm.
Thirteen came back to his senses in a trance: "Hmm?"
Fourteen: "Brother Thirteen, why are you so distracted? I want to try again. I just can't believe it. You all can lift it, but I can't?"
Thirteen smiled and stepped aside after hearing what he said: "Fourteenth brother, please."
He took a few steps back and couldn't help but look at his fourth brother beside him.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" The Fourth Master glanced at Thirteen and frowned, "Why do you look so glum?"
Thirteen smiled and said, "Fourth brother, it's okay. I just used too much strength. It will be fine after a while."
Upon hearing this, the Fourth Master nodded and said, "If you really feel unwell, don't be shy. Even during the New Year holidays, it's common to have a headache or fever. The Emperor won't mind."
Of all the younger brothers, Thirteenth was the most sensible. He had always been someone who wouldn't fight for himself. His mother was of a lower rank, and he wasn't in good health, so he'd endured countless injustices. The Fourth Master had gotten used to looking after him.
"Don't worry, fourth brother, I know what's going on." Thirteen couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. It was really nice to be able to talk to his fourth brother like this.
Now, if we can find the red fruit, everything will be perfect.
But, for some reason, she was clearly the one given to him by his fourth brother, but now, he couldn't find any clues about her.
Thinking of Hongguo, Thirteen couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Hey, I still don't believe it! Why can't I lift it?"
Fourteen used all his strength, but the hammer didn't move at all. He was so angry that he glared at the hammer, and tossed it around. Finally, he even sat on the ground and kicked it hard, but the hammer still didn't move.
"Mother, is Erbao helping Uncle Fourteen?"
Erbao sat in his mother's arms and wanted to get off, but he remembered his mother's instructions and turned back to ask.
When Wenjiu heard this, his heart began to lift.
He shook his head like a rattle: "Erbao can't, the uncles are competing."
Erbao blinked twice: "Mother, Ama also helps."
Warming wine: "......"
Did this kid see that the Fourth Master was using his internal energy to lift the hammer?
He choked for a long time before saying, "Ama can, but Erbao can't. That's a matter between them."
Erbao listened and nodded: "Okay, Erbao won't help."
Wenjiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Emperor Kangxi looked at Erbao, then at Wenjiu: "Do you think the response you just gave is worth discussing?"
Suddenly I began to understand why Erbao had no idea about himself.
The child said something casually, but Wen girl responded as if it was true. This scene was really humorous.
Emperor Kangxi was both angry and amused at the same time. He glanced at Wen Jiu and couldn't help but glared at her: "You should tell the truth to the children in the future, do you understand?"
Seeing Wen Jiu's stunned look, Emperor Kangxi looked down at Er Bao and said, "Er Bao, I have to tell you that you are not yet grown up and cannot lift it. In the future, eat more and practice martial arts diligently, then you can help your Fourteenth Uncle. Otherwise, you will not be able to lift the hammer."
Erbao blinked twice, glanced at the warm wine, then glanced at Emperor Kangxi, and suddenly said, "I can carry it!"
Wenjiu listened and his heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Especially when Emperor Kangxi suddenly cast his majestic eyes on him.
"Look at what you've done to your child." After a while, Emperor Kangxi said angrily, "Never do this again!"
Wenjiu immediately responded: "Jiu'er understands, I will pay attention next time."
Seeing that Emperor Kangxi didn't seem to doubt anything, Wenjiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Emperor Kangxi ignored the wine warming and turned to Erbao: "Erbao, you must be humble. Do you understand?"
Erbao: "Humility?"
Emperor Kangxi: "Yes, modesty!"
Erbao: "Oh."
Emperor Kangxi: "What do you mean by oh? Do you understand?"
Erbao blinked twice, and under Emperor Kangxi's expectant gaze, he touched his belly and said, "Your Maha Fatah, Erbao is hungry."
Emperor Kangxi: “…”
Erbao: "I want to eat smoked fish."
Emperor Kangxi: “…”
"Warm the wine! Come here!"
Wen Jiu immediately shrank his neck and came forward: "Your Majesty, I was wrong. I should have served Erbao a meal when he woke up just now."
Emperor Kangxi glared and asked, "Is this what I'm talking about?"
Wen Jiu: "...Then this servant will never give Erbao smoked fish again!"
Emperor Kangxi slammed the table in anger: "That's not it!"
Wen Jiu: "...Your Majesty, I am stupid, that is..."
Emperor Kangxi immediately slammed the table: "How outrageous!"
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, Your Majesty." Erbao immediately patted Emperor Kangxi's belly and said, "Don't cry, mother. Erbao feels sorry for you. Erbao kisses you."
As he spoke, he reached out for the warm wine.
Emperor Kangxi: “…”
In the end, he didn't let go of Erbao, but took a deep breath and said, "Warm the wine, don't you realize that you only think about food when you take care of my grandson?"
He told him to be humble, but he was thinking about the smoke. The royal child had never seen anything like this!
Warming the wine: "...Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I will be careful not to mention this food in front of the children in the future. And I will never let the children see Your Majesty eating smoked fish again."
Emperor Kangxi frowned immediately: "What did the fourth brother eat?"
Wen Jiu nodded immediately: "The prince loves this smoked fish the most. The children always talk about it when they offer him filial piety. From now on, I will persuade the prince to eat less."
"Eat less!" Erbao was immediately anxious when he heard this. He pulled at Emperor Kangxi's clothes and said, "Your Majesty, I'm hungry. Eat less. Don't eat less!"
Emperor Kangxi: "...Come on, serve the meal."
