Chapter 173: From a distance, a gathering of heroes; from close up...



Ever since Yinzuo was drafted into the army by his father, he didn't dare to go near Kangxi for many days. However, although he didn't go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, he didn't go to the Ministry of Works either. The main point was to treat everyone equally.

If you ask if it's boring to stay in the house all day like this? Look, I'm looking down on you again, aren't you? Have you forgotten the two sayings that our Zhaojun Wang often said when he was a child? There's no need to say more about being a dandy and a spendthrift. After all, his great wish is almost known to everyone. There's also another saying: sleep until you wake up naturally and count money until your hands cramp.

It has to be said that as a social animal in his previous life, Yinzuo was somewhat obsessed with waking up naturally. It would have been fine if he didn't have the conditions before, but now that he has them, he naturally wants to enjoy them. Don't look at him getting up late every day, he goes to bed early. Of course, Yinzuo doesn't just sleep all day. He's not a sleepyhead. He always needs to wake up at some point. You really don't need to worry about him. He lives a fulfilling life!

"Mother, your son is here to see you again... Oh, Concubine Yi is here too. Yinzuo greets Mother and Concubine Yi."

Defei was busy building the Great Wall at the moment and had no time to pay attention to her eldest son. She just raised her hand to signal Yinzuo to get up, and her eyes returned to the card table. On the contrary, Yifei was distracted by Yinzuo's arrival and chatted with him for a few words. As for the two nobles at the card table, they stood up as soon as Yinzuo came in. Yinzuo saluted them and they hurriedly returned the greeting.

"Okay, can't you see we're playing cards? Either find a place to sit or go back to where you came from and don't delay me from winning."

Good man, it seems that my son is not as good as the cards in your hand, right? Fine, you asked me to leave, and if I leave now, I won’t come back even if you call me...

Although Yinzuo was full of inner drama, he did not walk towards the door. He walked a few steps behind Defei, pulled a chair over, and sat behind his mother to act as a military advisor.

You say that a true gentleman watches chess without saying a word. What a joke! This isn't a game of chess, this is a game of cards. Besides, Yinzuo never said he was a gentleman. However, it seems that his job as a military advisor is not going well, because his lord doesn't listen to him at all.

"Look, look, you lost. I told you not to bet 20,000 first, but you refused to listen. Now look, you've given them a chance to win. You were thinking of playing a self-draw before? What were you thinking? Let me tell you... Ouch, mother, please be gentle. This is my ear. Be gentle, mother, your son was wrong..."

The lord that Yinzuo served obviously had a bad temper. Yinzuo was grabbed by the ear and scolded just because he complained a few times. Now his ear was in the other person's hand, so Yinzuo had to bow his head as he was under the other person's eaves.

"You little brat, you dare to lecture your mother? I see you don't want these ears anymore, right? Then I'll just pull them off for you..."

Defei was already very angry because she lost the game, and Yinzuo was now in trouble. His mother grabbed his ears and twisted them three times to the left and three times to the right. If Yifei had not pleaded for him, his mother would have pinched his left ear and then the right one as well.

"Mother, you are so cruel. Look at my son's ears. They are almost as big as Zhu Bajie's."

Defei had been a bit harsh in her anger just now, and now she felt a little distressed when she saw her son's red and swollen ear. She stood up and walked to Yinzuo's side, raised her hand to touch his red earlobe, and then called the palace maid beside her to get medicine.

Although Yinzuo was usually spoiled, he was a grown man after all. It would be a joke if he applied medicine on a wound that hadn't even been broken. So he hurriedly said that he was fine, but it was obviously too late to say anything now, because his mother's belated maternal love was too overwhelming. In other words - I won't listen to you.

胤祚能怎么办呢?只能被迫接受他额娘那带着歉意的补偿,但是显然德妃这母爱来的快去的也快,这不前脚还按着儿子擦药,后脚那注意力就又回到那牌桌上了,胤祚摸了摸火烧火燎的耳朵,心里直叹气,真的是何苦来哉,你说他今天来这一趟是为了啥?难道就是因为好些日子没有挨揍了,来他额娘这里讨打的?

After coming out of Yonghe Palace, Yinzuo was not in a hurry to return to the South Three Houses. He thought it was still early and he could stroll around the palace before going back. However, he never expected that while walking, he would see the gate of the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Well, now he is at the gate, it would be so impolite if he doesn't go in.

"Khan Ama, your beloved son..."

According to past practice, Yinzuo always shouted something in advance every time he came to the Ganqing Palace, and this time was no exception. However, this time, he was scared back the second half of his words by the people sitting in the hall.

"Haha, are we discussing business? Sorry to bother you all, please go ahead and get busy..."

It must be said that this scene was quite embarrassing. Although what he said was true to a certain extent, it sounded a bit shameful. Fortunately, our Prince Zhao was thick-skinned enough. He was only embarrassed for a moment and then he returned to normal.

"Okay, now that you're here, why not sit down and listen together? Liang Jiugong, help him move a chair over."

Since Kangxi said so, Yinzuo naturally could not leave. Liang Jiugong placed the chair on his left side as Kangxi instructed. Yinzuo looked at Kangxi who was patting the chair and asking him to come over, and then looked at Yinreng who was sitting on Kangxi's right side, and had no choice but to sit over.

"Did you just come from your mother's place?"

Yinzuo was stunned when he heard Kangxi's words. What was going on? His father could tell fortunes now. Otherwise, how would he know where he came from? He seemed to have only said a few words when he first entered the door.

"Khan Ama, when did you learn this skill? Come, show your son what kind of fortune I have today..."

What does this have to do with anything? As soon as Kangxi saw the expression on Yinzuo's face, he knew what this kid might be thinking about, so he raised his hand and touched his red ear. Without too many words, Yinzuo understood immediately. There were only three people in the palace who dared to pull his ears and twist them like this. First, excluding his father, and then excluding the empress dowager, wasn't it obvious who did it?

There were still a bunch of people sitting down there. Kangxi exchanged a few words with Yinzuo before returning his gaze to the crowd. Even if Yinzuo wasn't interested in the court affairs, since he was sitting there, he naturally couldn't close his ears and not listen. So he soon figured it out. Wow, this scene at first glance seemed like a gathering of heroes, but in reality it was just a meeting of poor people.
