Upon entering, they saw Yinzhen holding a child and teasing him with a slight smile on his face, which amazed the two of them.
The Tenth Prince, being rather blunt, immediately said, "Fourth Brother, I didn't expect you to have this much patience. This is your son Hongxu, right? Why are you taking care of him?"
Yinzhen didn't mind his directness: "It's Hongxu. He cries as soon as I leave. This child can't bear to be separated from me."
His tone carried a hint of smugness.
He's happy when his son is close to him!
Although both of them had sons, they were not really close. Their children were mainly cared for by the women and wet nurses, and they only held them occasionally.
Ninth Prince: "I never expected that Fourth Brother would actually raise a child himself. Who would believe it if word got out!"
When Yinzhen thought about the rules and customs of raising children in the royal family, his habit of nagging about his loved ones resurfaced.
“This child needs to be close to his mother from a young age. It’s in the child’s nature to be close to his father and mother. If they don’t get close to each other when they are young, they will inevitably become estranged when they grow up. The father may have authority, but he may lack warmth. Don’t leave the child’s entire life to women and wet nurses. It’s not a bad thing to let him get closer to them.”
The Ninth Prince seemed to be deep in thought, reflecting on the father-son relationship within the imperial family, while the Tenth Prince looked as if he had learned something.
After talking about the child, Yinzhen said, "Speak, why did you suddenly decide to look for me? What's the matter?"
The Tenth Prince looked at the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince looked at Yinzhen and said, "Fourth Brother should also know that recently many members of the imperial clan have come to visit, hoping that their daughters who have married into Mongolia can have a better life. However, there are some things that neither of us can decide, so we would like to ask Fourth Brother for your advice."
Yinzhen didn't even ask them what it was about. He just said, "Don't rush to agree. This good deed should be done by Father Emperor. You two should hint to the imperial relatives to go to Father Emperor. If Father Emperor bestows his favor, everyone will be happy."
The Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince looked at each other, this was not what they had expected.
The Tenth Prince, being straightforward, looked at Yinzhen and asked, "Fourth Brother, do you really not need the favors of those imperial relatives?"
The Ninth Prince also looked at him, conveying roughly the same meaning.
The main reason they made this trip today is to give Yinzhen an opportunity to bestow favors upon the imperial clan.
This is a force that cannot be ignored.
Looking at his two younger brothers, Yinzhen sighed: "You two remember, this world belongs to your father. Your father's will will not be swayed by anyone's preferences. Just be loyal to your father and listen to me. Who knows, you two might be promoted even higher next year."
