Hearing this, Yinzhi's face darkened.
"Who are you calling brainless?!"
Yinreng ignored him and turned to He Zhuer and Song Yunhe and said,
"Retreat three feet."
He Zhuer agreed directly and walked away with the others.
Song Yunhe glanced at Yinzhi, then walked in the opposite direction.
He certainly didn't have the courage to disobey the prince's orders, but he also had to make it clear that he was forced to do so, so that his master wouldn't hold him accountable later.
Yinzhi stared blankly at Yinreng, who was a head shorter than him, and didn't understand why he wanted to send everyone around him away.
After everyone had gone far away, Yinreng looked directly into Yinzhi's eyes. Even though he was not as tall as Yinzhi, the aura of a superior emanating from him made Yinzhi feel suffocated.
He unconsciously wanted to look away.
At this moment, Yinreng spoke,
"If you want my position as crown prince, feel free to come and take it, but just one thing: don't show up in front of me again."
Jumping?
This word was used so rudely that Yinzhi's face fell.
"Do you think I don't want to fight for it? If you weren't so lucky and had the title of the Empress's legitimate son, do you think the Emperor would have chosen you as the Crown Prince? There is no such rule in Manchuria!"
Yinzhi's face turned red with anger, and every word he spoke seemed to be squeezed out from his throat, which was enough to show his anger.
"so what?"
Yinreng's expression was calm.
"so?!"
"How dare you ask me that? You and I both have the Emperor's blood flowing through our veins. Why do you hold a higher status than my brothers? I'm obviously older than you, yet I still have to bow to you!"
"Oh……"
Yinreng sneered,
"In the final analysis, you are just jealous of the treatment I receive. Today, I will give you this opportunity to experience my life."
The anger on Yinzhi's face disappeared, and was quickly replaced by confusion.
"Experience your life? What do you mean?"
Yinreng said, "When I go and ask the Emperor, you will know."
After he finished speaking, he was about to continue walking towards the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Before he had taken two steps, a cold voice continued to reach Yinzhi's ears.
"You'd better change your outspokenness. Otherwise, the next time I hear you say something so outrageous, I'll go ask the Emperor whether wearing colorful clothes to entertain one's parents is considered flattery!"
Hearing this, Yinzhi stood there in a daze, and was so frightened by the cold weather that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Before Yinreng reminded him, he had been feeling complacent about how his sarcasm had angered Yinreng, but when he heard the words "colorful clothes to entertain parents", he realized how big a mistake he had made.
If what he just said reached the ears of the emperor, he would have to stay in bed for at least half a month.
Maybe he would even be punished to copy the "Book of Filial Piety".
Seeing the prince hurriedly leaving with He Zhuer, Song Yunhe walked up to his master from a distance. Seeing Yinzhi's pale face, he was immediately startled.
"Master, what's wrong with you?!"
Yinzhi pursed his lips and said nothing. His thoughts were extremely complicated at the moment.
When he was young, he was placed in the home of Nalan Mingzhu by his father, while Yinreng, who was a few years younger than him, was able to stay in the palace and was raised personally.
Out of jealousy, after being brought back to the palace, he and Yinreng were always at odds with each other, and every time they met alone, they couldn't help but mock each other.
This scene has become commonplace today.
He just felt unfair. He was obviously also the blood of the emperor's father, so why were Ukuma Ma and the emperor only kind to Yinreng and cold and polite to him?
So those two words were spoken carelessly out of jealousy.
But he didn't expect that although Yinreng had caught him, he didn't go to complain to the emperor, but reminded him to change his bad habit of speaking without thinking.
Although Yinreng's words were unpleasant, he was a man who knew what was right and wrong.
After Yinreng criticized Yinzhi for a few words, he finally felt much better.
He did not go back to his study directly to read, but went to the warm room of the Qianqing Palace.
Kangxi was reviewing memorials when he heard Liang Jiugong say that the prince wanted to see him. He thought he had misheard.
Three months had passed since he heard Yinreng's inner thoughts. During these three months, this was the first time that Yinreng took the initiative to see him.
Is the sun rising from the west today?
Kangxi glanced at the sky outside.
Great, it looks like it's going to snow again soon.
"Send him in."
"Baocheng pays his respects to the Emperor, and wishes the Emperor a long and healthy life."
Kangxi drew a line on the letter in his hand and said, "Get up."
"How come you have time to come and pay your respects to Father today? Could it be that old bastard Geng Jie is not fulfilling his responsibilities?"
Yinreng lowered his eyebrows and looked docile.
"No, no, Master Geng is doing his duty. It's my son who wants to ask you for something."
"oh?"
Kangxi was very interested.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
This kid doesn't want to be the emperor, and he's rather careless about his studies. If he didn't know that Yinreng had already learned this in his previous life, he would definitely be hung up and beaten.
It's a bit strange that I have to ask him for help this time.
The next second, Yinreng smiled ingratiatingly and moved forward again.
"Father, my son wants to exchange identities with my eldest brother for a few days."
"Hmm? Changing identities for a few days? What does that mean?"
Kangxi was puzzled.
Yinreng's earnest popularization of science,
"It's my turn to live Big Brother's life, and Big Brother gets to experience the life of a prince..."
Kangxi frowned.
"presumptuous!"
Yinreng knelt down very decisively without even a second's hesitation.
Anyway, there is a floor heater in the warm room, so it’s not cold at all.
Kangxi said angrily,
"Do you think being the crown prince is a joke? Do you want others to experience it just because you want them to?!"
Yinreng's eyebrows were drooping, and his voice was barely audible.
"So, my son has come to discuss this with you, hasn't he?"
"What did you say?! Louder!"
"So, my son has come to discuss this with you, hasn't he?! You know what my elder brother is like. Because of the crown prince position, we always quarrel whenever we meet. I want to be a brother, but my elder brother won't give me the chance..."
Yinreng was determined to go all out and directly expressed his dissatisfaction.
He not only wanted Yinzhi to experience the life of a crown prince, but if possible, he even wanted each of his younger brothers to try the life he lived.
Kangxi: “…”
The anger was stuck in my chest, unable to go up or down, and it was extremely uncomfortable.
He had always been very clear that Yinzhi and Yinreng did not get along, but in front of him, both of them pretended to be brothers.
So he turned a blind eye, thinking that no matter how much the two quarreled, it would not cause much trouble.
But he knew that Yinreng died young.
If his guess was correct, Yinreng's early death was closely related to the struggle for the crown prince. Under such circumstances, it would not be a good feeling to hear Yinreng say that he and Yinzhi would fight whenever they met.
Kangxi would think too much——
If their relationship was better, they might not have ended up fighting against each other.
