Chapter 54: The 54th Day of Wanting to Die

After all, my father is my biological father and he won’t do anything to them, but I can’t say for sure about my biological brother.

Yinsi and Yinlu swallowed in fear.

If they are expelled, what will happen to their family?

In a few years, they will marry Fu Jin and will definitely have their own little princes and princesses.

Yinsi closed his eyes and told himself not to think about it anymore.

Yinzhen was even more worried, as he still had his mother, brothers and sisters, an aunt in the palace, and Guo Luomafa's family outside the palace.

Considering how many people were implicated because of him, he was quite unfilial.

Several people, each with their own thoughts, stood up and stared at the three protagonists.

Yinxiang smiled and said, "Can I have lunch with my sixth brother and fourteenth brother?"

Yin Zhuo was unhappy because he was young, but he did not get angry with him. The final result was that seven or eight princes in the room went to have lunch together.

What Yin Zhuo didn't know was that now everyone wanted to stick to him, eager to hear more about their future.

See if there is any room for maneuver.

Yin Zhuo had never expected that so many people would want to dine with him. He felt happy and distressed at the same time.

He touched his bald head and felt unsteady when he walked.

[It's all because I'm too charming. Several of my brothers want to stick to me. Hehe, the brothers below are more annoying than each other. Only Xiaoqi and Xiaoshier are honest. The others are all troublesome. It's a headache, but I still like Xiaoshier more. I will find an opportunity to discuss with him how to make my funeral more luxurious, so that I can leave in a dignified manner after I die.]

Yinsi understood what Sixth Brother meant. Seventh Brother and Twelve Little Brother were not among the nine candidates for the throne. But Twelve Little Brother was only a little boy. No matter what, it would not be his turn to hold Sixth Brother's funeral.

Yinzhen was originally walking at the back, trying to be an invisible person, but he didn't expect that he was suddenly mentioned in the Sixth Brother's voice. He was a little disappointed before that there was no role for him, but now he doesn't want the role that the Sixth Brother mentioned. The Sixth Brother should just live well.

How could he hold a funeral for someone?

Then he heard Sixth Brother’s inner voice giving him the answer.

[After all, Yinzhen was an expert at organizing funerals. He sent away almost all of his brothers, and lived to be over seventy years old.]

Yinzhen was delighted to hear that he lived such a long life, but soon he could no longer laugh.

What does Sixth Brother mean by this? Was it not him who arranged the funerals for all those brothers he sent away?

For a moment, Yinzhen felt it was a bit absurd. The Ministry of Rites had professional officials, so why was it his turn?

He even fantasized that he could be granted the title of a prince. The title of prince was out of the question because he had too many outstanding brothers above him. Those who ranked in the top ten could not even show their heads in front of the emperor. Even if they did, those older brothers would just push them down with a finger.

After all, they had been involved in political affairs earlier than himself, and by the time he entered the court, the entire court would probably have been divided up.

But no matter what, it is a great blessing that he is healthy and long-lived.

Yinsi's mouth froze. He didn't expect that even the Twelveth Little Boy would have a good ending.

Why can't he?

Aqina Aqina...

Yinsi's mind is now filled with these three words, and a feeling of disgust surges in his heart.

Yinyou also patted Yinzhen on the shoulder.

Hearing what Sixth Brother said, all these brothers were sent away by Little Twelve, so he must be extremely talented in this area, otherwise he would not be allowed to be in charge of this matter all the time.

In this case, I will feel at ease when he dies.

If his son could not be relied upon, he still had Little Twelve to collect his body and hold a funeral for him.

Yinzhen was embarrassed and asked, "What does Seventh Brother mean?"

He is still young and doesn't have that ability.

Having that ability will come later.

I don't know whose first funeral he held was.

[At that time, the state funerals of the emperor's father and the fourth brother were presided over by the twelfth prince. If Qianlong had not lived too long, he might have been able to send Qianlong off. ]

Yinzhen's mouth widened slightly. Did he personally send the Emperor and his fourth brother away?

Good fellow.

Sent away two emperors in a row.

Who is Qianlong? Is he the fourth brother's son?

Yinzhen actually felt a little regretful. If he had insisted a little longer, he would have sent Qianlong away. He would have become a famous person in history who sent away three emperors in a row.

What a pity.

The others were speechless. Little Twelve was still young, and his thoughts were written all over his face.

He even presided over a state funeral, which shows that Xiao Twelve is indeed talented in this area.

The rituals for a state funeral were very complicated, and it was a testament to Little Twelve's ability to organize it beautifully.

I just want to ask Sixth Brother, can you please stop thinking about life and death and stop thinking it’s bad luck.

As expected, as someone who has died once, he has come to terms with this matter and has started planning his own funeral. It's really hard to say what to say for a moment.

Why does Sixth Brother have such no desire to survive?

What’s even more strange is that Sixth Brother knows their future, but what about Sixth Brother’s own future?

Could it really be that it will end in two months?

Yinzhen felt a little heavy-hearted. He didn't like what his sixth brother said.

He pursed his lips, walked to Yin Zhuo, and then took his hand, saying a little embarrassedly: "I'm hungry."

Yin Zhuo touched his stomach and pouted: "I'm hungry, let's go quickly."

But I haven’t found a place to eat yet.

Which palace did so many of them go to for dinner?

Just when Yin Zhuo was worried, Liang Jiugong, who had been waiting, came over and said respectfully, "Hello, princes. The emperor sent me to wait here."

The emperor originally wanted to bring the Sixth Prince over, but the Sixth Prince was accompanied by other masters.

Liang Jiugong was just a servant and had no idea whether the emperor would change his mind, so he did not point it out and planned to take a few princes with him to find the emperor. After all, they were all the emperor's sons, and the emperor could not drive them away just for a meal.

In the study, Kangxi took a big sip of tea. After haggling with several ministers for a whole morning, he finally managed to arrange everything.

Next, he can just sit back for a while and wait for his subordinates to report on the progress.

Kangxi was leisurely eating a plum, his face wrinkled from the sourness. After he came to his senses, he looked at his sons who refused to leave and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

These brats must have known that Xiaoliu was coming, so they all stayed here shamelessly.

Forget it, out of sight, out of mind. Kangxi was about to walk out with his hands behind his back. As soon as he reached the door, he saw seven or eight little radishes following Xiaoliu back to the steps.

Kangxi: ...

He looked at the seven or eight people downstairs, then looked at the four or five people in the room, and suddenly he felt overwhelmed.

For the first time, I felt that my son had too many children.

Yinreng also saw it and couldn't help laughing and said, "Father, my brothers are here too. It's going to be a bit more lively at noon today."

I don’t know if these younger brothers heard what Xiaoliu was thinking, and how they reacted after hearing it.

Oh, things are becoming more and more interesting. He could have eaten a few more meals just by watching the performance of these younger brothers and the Emperor at noon today.

Yinreng was so happy that he couldn't stop gritting his teeth.

After hearing the noise, the older ones in the room understood why their second brother was laughing. Seeing the dark face of the Emperor's father, if the Emperor had not been there, they would have wanted to laugh out loud as well.

Just like my second brother said, there will be some excitement at noon today.

Yinzhen's eyelids twitched, and he reached out to press them. However, as soon as he let go, his eyelids continued to twitch, making him panic.

Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at his younger brothers coming up from below, with a bad feeling in his heart.

I have a feeling that he couldn't stand the jokes made by the Emperor this afternoon. As the future successor in the eyes of the sixth child, he had the names of the eighth and ninth children changed and he was expelled from the family register. What's more, the fourteenth child, his own brother, was imprisoned by him until his death.

Yinzhen: ...

Is it too late to leave now?

By the time Yinzhen realized this, it was too late. Yin Zhuo and several princes had already blocked the door.

Yinsi, Yinlu and others all had tears in their eyes when they saw Kangxi.

When he saw Yinzhen, he took a step back in fear. He knew with his heels that they had heard Xiaoliu's thoughts.

Yinzhen and Kangxi: ...I knew that Xiaoliu, with his big mouth, would talk nonsense.

How could he have so many things on his mind? He was asked to go to class, but he was telling his younger brothers about the spoilers.

Look at this little face, it’s so pale, it must be scared.

The brothers are still very young and haven't done anything crazy yet. I wonder if being frightened by Xiaoliu will cast a shadow on their future.

Yinreng was shaking his legs, feeling a little amused, almost laughing to death. It was finally these people's turn to experience the pain they had gone through in the past few days.

It was as if he was looking in the mirror now. He was also so frightened at that time.

Now the situation is changing.

But there were still a few people whose expressions did not change, and everything was normal.

Even Xiao Shisan dared to look up and make eye contact with them.

Oh no, it seems that Little Thirteen also knows that Fourth Brother will favor him exclusively in the future.

This is a confidence-building thing.

There's nothing special about this Thirteenth. I don't understand why the Fourth likes him so much.

Moreover, Yinsi usually looked quite well-behaved, who would have thought that he would do such a thing.

I won’t talk about Laojiu, he has been a gangster since he was young.

Not to mention the tenth brother, he can be found wherever the ninth brother is. The two of them are closer than brothers.

Kangxi said with a fierce look on his face: "Why did you all come here? How much food must you have eaten? By the way, do you know how much silver an egg costs?"

Kangxi was somewhat reluctant at first, as it turned out that raising sons was a losing business. After giving birth to and raising these sons, they were restless and wanted to take his position one by one.

Even more unfilial than Xiaoliu.

It really makes me angry.

Kangxi's sudden question confused everyone.

The emperor seemed to be a little disgusted with them, but what did the question "how much do eggs cost" mean?

Could it be that eggs were used for lunch?

Kangxi saw that they all had confused faces and knew that they didn't know. When he was about to wave his hand and take a seat, he saw Xiaoliu in front of him raised his hand high.

And she was looking at him with sparkling eyes, as if asking him to point her finger and ask him to answer.

Kangxi snorted deliberately, pretending not to notice: "Take a seat."

Yin Zhuo clenched his fists in anger. The Emperor did it on purpose. He clearly knew it but just didn't ask him.

Damn it.

I'll eat him up later.

Yin Zhuo looked at the little radishes behind him, and acted like a good brother: "Eat as much as you can. The emperor is so rich, he will never run out of food."

Yin Zhuo gritted his teeth.

Several people shrank their necks.

Sixth brother is so amazing that he actually dared to speak to the Emperor directly like that. Everyone was shocked for a moment.

Kangxi ignored him: "Shut up, aren't you hungry? Hurry up and sit down to eat. I haven't settled the score with you for sleeping in the morning and not attending class yet. I advise you to be honest for a while."

Kangxi's direct threat.

Yin Zhuo: …

[The stinky old man actually complained! ]

Kangxi: ...

Zhang Aiqing would never complain. The servants outside the Shangshufang could know the situation of each prince with just a casual question.

After we sat down, the table was full of people.

Kangxi couldn't stand the admiring looks from the little princes.

But he couldn't say anything, as these children were scared by Xiaoliu.

At the same time, he was also somewhat happy in his heart, and he did not feel disgusted. After all, whenever these sons encountered problems, they would still think of him, the emperor.

And not one of these people dared to go see Yinzhen.

Tsk tsk, I don’t know what Xiaoliu said?

Especially the Eighth and Ninth, they sat with their heads down, their hands placed neatly, not moving a single muscle.

Yinqi was amazed by what he saw. How could the old ninth brother, who wanted to overturn the table while eating, actually have such an honest side?

Could it be that he was scared by the name Seth Black?

Yinqi frowned slightly, not wanting to say anything. Old Nine was indeed being unreasonable. Couldn't he just be honest?

He had to get involved in the matter of seizing the throne, which shows that he really thought he had lived too long.

The eldest brother, second brother and fourth brother are also at this table.

What sparks can these little brats create?

So, even though there were many people at the meal, strangely enough, it was very quiet the whole time.

Yin Zhuo rolled his eyes around, looking to the left, then to the right, and then quickly put the last lion head into his bowl. Seeing everyone looking at him, he smiled shyly: "You are weak and need to eat more to replenish your body. Thank you for letting me have it."

【Why are you looking at me? Is there a spot on my face or something? Hey, hey, fourth brother is looking at Thirteen again. It seems that my fourteenth brother and I have no sense of existence in his mind. We are not as good as him. After all, fourth brother broke many precedents for Thirteenth brother. Even Thirteenth brother's mother was buried in the imperial mausoleum. This is not ordinary favor, not to mention that Thirteenth brother himself is an iron hat. His sons also have titles. Little Thirteenth will be the real vice emperor in the future and enjoy the exclusive favor. How can I, who died early, get the care of fourth brother? I don't deserve it, and Fourteenth brother doesn't deserve it either! I want to crawl on the ground with jealousy, and then lie down next to fourth brother's ear to ask him in person, if Thirteenth brother and fourth sister-in-law fell into the water at the same time, who would he save? Haha, I am so vicious...】

As Yin Zhuo was thinking about it, he actually laughed out loud.

Others: …

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became strange.

Ah, although several people have already heard one version, but now Sixth Brother has thoughtfully supplemented it for them and directly mentioned the vice emperor. Good guys, now Thirteen's status is very vivid.

And they also wanted to know the answer to the question that Sixth Brother just asked.

If the fourth sister-in-law and the thirteenth brother fell into the water at the same time, who would the fourth brother save?

Yinzhen was originally eating with his head down, but he noticed that Yinxiang was eating very slowly, so he glanced at him. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Xiaoliu.

He could smell the jealousy in her voice through several people.

Why does Xiaoliu care so much about his Thirteenth Brother?

Alas, there is really nothing we can do about him.

But could you please not ask such outrageous questions?

Even if both of them fell into the water at the same time, it wouldn't be his turn to rescue them, right?

No, he was led astray by Xiaoliu. How could Fujin and Shisan fall into the water?

The context of this question simply does not hold.

Kangxi knew Zhang Jia's identity. She was still a concubine and had little presence in the palace.

What puzzled Kangxi even more was that although he had a very good relationship with his brothers, it was only limited to Prince Yu and Prince Gong themselves. As for the children, he still insisted on letting them make their own contributions and be awarded titles.

How come the fourth brother also conferred a title on the thirteenth brother’s child?

Thinking of the way the fourth prince treated his son, Kangxi actually felt that it was a bit unfair.

He was not kind to his own son, yet he conferred titles on other people's children...

What’s wrong with the fourth brother’s brain?

No wonder Qianlong disliked the fourth son so much, it turns out he was biased.

Yinreng was watching the show. Oh, he didn't expect that the cold-faced Fourth Brother had a beloved younger brother, which even made the Sixth Brother jealous.

But Xiaoliu's smile is so weird. Why does he smile like a villain?

Yinzhen's eyes lit up. Xiaoliu's question was very good.

When he got back, he would ask Fu Jin whether she would save him.

Yinxiang blushed and wanted to explain, but since this was what his sixth brother was thinking, he couldn't explain it.

I can only hold it in.

My eyes are red.

He actually likes Sixth Brother more because Sixth Brother is so much fun.

He is much easier to get along with than the fourth brother who always has a stern face. Even though he dislikes me in his heart, his eyes are still crooked when he looks at me, giving off a friendly aura that makes people feel comfortable.

So, in full view of everyone, Yinxiang used the serving chopsticks to put the last piece of pot-wrapped meat into Yin Zhuo's bowl.

Yin Zhuo was immediately moved: "Xiao Shisan, you are so kind!"

Yin Zhuo blew him a kiss.

Kangxi's face darkened: "Eat your food, stop making trouble."

Yin Zhuo chuckled.

Yinxiang was a little overwhelmed by the favor. Seeing that his father looked unhappy, he did not dare to say anything, but he felt warm in his heart.

At the same time, he heard the voice of his sixth brother.

[Xiao Shisan is pretty good too, no wonder Fourth Brother likes him, I like him too]

Yinzhen's face changed, he turned around and looked at his sixth brother in disbelief, his face full of resentment.

Sixth brother, you are a traitor!

You actually betrayed me.

At this moment, Fourteen felt very lonely, a little lonely, and depressed.

Thirteenth brother is really awesome, not only did he snatch away fourth brother, he also wanted to snatch away sixth brother.

Yinzhen held the chopsticks tightly, he would not give up.

Not only Yinzhen was stunned, but everyone else was stunned as well, staring at the serving chopsticks in confusion.

No, Sixth Brother is too easy to appease, isn’t he?

Didn’t Thirteen just pick up a piece of food for him with his chopsticks?

My impression of Thirteen suddenly changed 360 degrees, leaving me confused.

How to say this, they knew that Sixth Brother was jumpy, but this was too jumpy.

On the way here, you were jealous that Thirteen had to crawl on the ground in the dark, but now you blew Thirteen a kiss from the air.

Everyone felt a little embarrassed when thinking about that flying kiss.

Sixth brother is too unrestrained.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at Xiaoliu, Kangxi snorted coldly: "Everyone, eat your meal obediently. Anyone who moves the serving chopsticks will be kicked out."

He knew what these people were going to do just by looking at their butts.

Kangxi confiscated the serving chopsticks directly.

Yin Zhuo's face was full of disbelief.

[No way, no way? The Emperor is so jealous. Didn’t Thirteen just not pick up some food for him? Is that a big deal?]

Kangxi was inexplicably slandered: ...

It was really kind of feeding the dog.
