Yinreng had a rare chance to rest today and was sitting in the yard drinking tea. From a distance, he saw Xiaoba and Xiaojiu running hurriedly towards the main hall, shouting as they ran.
Seeing that he had already stepped half a foot into the palace gate, Yinreng shouted, "I'm here."
Xiaojiu slammed on the brakes and turned around to see Yinreng smiling and waving at him on the lounge chair under the tree.
So, Xiaojiu ran over first, and Xiaoba hurriedly followed behind.
"Second brother, save me."
Xiaojiu threw herself directly into Yinreng's arms and almost knocked him off the recliner.
"Xiaojiu..."
Yinreng took a deep breath and said, "Get up quickly, do you want to crush me to death?"
Xiaojiu reluctantly stood up and said, "Second brother, you have to save Xiaojiu. Xiaojiu is about to be beaten to death by my mother."
"Tell me what's going on?"
Yinreng asked Xiaojiu to speak nicely and gestured for Xiaoba to sit aside.
"I think math is very interesting, so I want to learn math specifically from my teacher. But my mother disagrees and insists that I learn those useless Four Books and Five Classics. It's so annoying."
Yinreng had originally wondered how Xiaojiu became so proficient in business, but now it seems that it started with mathematics.
That’s right, people who are good at math have quick thinking.
Only if he is sensitive to numbers can he be sensitive to money.
"I will help you with this matter."
Yinreng stood up. He recalled that in his previous life, the ninth prince was not only very successful in business, but also very talented in languages. He was proficient in the languages of many countries and was considered a gifted prince among the princes.
"Xiaojiu, foreigners have an interesting algorithm. Do you want to learn it?"
Xiaojiu nodded immediately. He was very interested in everything related to mathematics.
"If you want to learn mathematical algorithms from foreigners, you need to be proficient in foreign languages. Do you want me to find you a foreign language teacher?"
Xiaojiu felt that his second brother was so thoughtful. This was a buy-one-get-one-free service.
"Yes, yes."
After pretending to ponder for a while, Yinreng decided to take his two younger brothers to the Qianqing Palace to find Kangxi.
After all, if you want to teach Xiaojiu according to his aptitude, you still need Kangxi's consent.
Unexpectedly, Kangxi agreed with it, mainly because he had previously heard from Yinreng that Xiaojiu was the God of Wealth, and he also knew that this kid had a talent for doing business.
He was not a rigid person, and he would not expect every one of his sons to be carved out of the same template.
Therefore, as long as his sons made their requests, as long as they were not excessive, he would agree to them.
Xiaojiu never expected that this matter would go so easily, which made him feel unreal.
"Xiaojiu, you want to study mathematics so much, what do you want to do in the future?"
Xiaojiu said without even thinking, "My son wants to do business in the future, but my mother doesn't agree. She says businessmen are lowly. But my son really likes making money."
Kangxi actually didn't want to agree in his heart, but when he thought that this guy's business was not on the same level as others, he held back.
"Okay, then you do it well. If you can't make progress in the future, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
Xiaojiu happily stepped forward and hugged Kangxi's thighs. "Thank you for your support, Father Huang. I will definitely hand over the profits I make from my business to the national treasury, so that the people of the Qing Dynasty will become more and more prosperous."
"Oh," Kangxi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "So generous? Handing it all over?"
Xiaojiu immediately shut up, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Half, half will be handed over to the national treasury."
"Hahahaha" everyone laughed, but Kangxi was still very happy. Xiaojiu was only nine years old, but he had such a character and brain, which was not bad.
The four of them had lunch directly in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, and then Kangxi took Xiaoba and Xiaojiu to the harem.
He mainly went to Chengqian Palace to see Concubine Tong.
Little Tong Jia had a different temperament from her sister. She was quiet, sensible and gentle, and won the favor of Kangxi.
It was already afternoon when he arrived. After chatting about poetry and books with Tong Jia for a while, he had dinner here.
According to the normal procedure, the next step is to go to bed here directly.
When the emperor goes to the harem, he naturally can't just bring two people with him. He is always followed by a team of guards.
However, the guards were all guarding at the gate of Chengqian Palace, and the palace maids were waiting in the courtyard. Only Liang Jiugong, who served closely, could follow them into the palace.
At this time, the two had just finished dinner and were about to talk about some romantic things and then go to bed, but unexpectedly, Uya ran in crying.
As soon as she entered the palace, she knelt down and kowtowed to Concubine Tong, "I beg Your Majesty to invite an imperial physician for the Fourteenth Prince. The Fourteenth Prince has become delirious due to the fever."
When Kangxi heard this, he immediately stood up and walked towards the side hall. Concubine Tong glanced at Uya indifferently and followed Kangxi to the side hall.
At this time, Little Fourteen was lying on the bed whimpering with his face flushed with fever. His eyes were tightly closed. Naturally, he didn't know that the Emperor had come to visit him. He just hummed indistinctly.
"Liang Jiugong, quickly call the imperial physician."
After receiving the order, Liang Jiugong quickly ran out to find the imperial physician. After examining Concubine Tong, she went to the main hall with Kangxi and sat down.
At this moment, Uya looked utterly lost. She knelt down before Concubine Tong again and apologized, "I did not mean to disturb the relationship between Your Majesty and the Emperor. I was forced to do so..."
Concubine Tong winked at Lin Xiang and said calmly, "Help Concubine Wuya get up and sit down."
After seeing her sit down, he said, "This is all for the child. There's no need to be so panicked."
Perhaps it was because Concubine Tong's tone was too gentle, without any hint of anger, which made Uya relax her guard.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Concubine Tong then asked, "Why did Fourteenth Prince suddenly become ill? When did you first notice something was wrong?"
Wu Ya cried again, "He woke up this morning complaining of discomfort and pain all over his body, so I told him to rest in the palace and not run around. He woke up in the afternoon and was completely groggy, complaining of discomfort and looking pale. It was only just now that I discovered Fourteenth Prince had a fever, so I went to ask the Empress to find the imperial physician."
Concubine Tong did not rush to respond, but drank a sip of tea calmly.
"Lady Wuya, the Fourteenth Prince has been feeling unwell since this morning. Perhaps it wasn't obvious this morning, but he's already had some symptoms since his nap. He only started to have a fever now, right?"
Uya felt that Concubine Tong's tone was a little scary and calm, and she always felt that something was wrong, but at this time the emperor was sitting here looking at her, which made her thoughts a little confused.
I could only nod and say, "Yes."
Concubine Tong nodded, then calmly and forcefully questioned, "Since noon until now, the entire afternoon, Fourteenth Prince has been feeling unwell. Why didn't you find a doctor? Why did you wait until this hour to tell him?"
