The song in "The Secret Visits of Kangxi" is absolutely right. The emperor does not sit in the Golden Palace with golden tiles. Kangxi is really restless. In February of the 44th year, he first took his sons to stroll in the south of the Yangtze River. After returning, he did not rest for a few days and prepared to move to Changchun Garden with the empress dowager, wife, and children. Of course, as Kangxi's personal companion, Yinzuo would naturally not be left behind.
"Father, son..."
As usual, the first thing Yinzuo did upon entering Qingxi Study was to look for his father. But today, it seemed he had arrived at the wrong time; his father was currently breathing fire. Yinzuo clung to the doorframe and peeked into the study, then immediately pulled his head back. The man kneeling inside, being beaten, was no stranger to him: his unfortunate second brother, the Crown Prince.
"Eunuch Liang, what happened today? What could have made Khan Ama so angry..."
Just listen to Yinzuo's questions. Each one of them is a life-or-death question. Liang Jiugong, let alone not knowing, would he dare to reveal a single word even if he knew? Seeing Yinzuo approaching, he could only laugh and joke with him.
"Prince, please stop joking with me. I dare not speculate on the Emperor's thoughts. But since you are here, why don't you go in and try to persuade him? This has been going on for quite a while. Several teacups have been smashed, and the blood is still flowing from the Crown Prince's head. How can this go on? At this point, I am afraid that only you can go in and give him some advice..."
Well, it turned out that he had walked into trouble today. Yinreng was kneeling with his back to the door. Yinzuo had only seen the back of his head when he looked inside. Now when he heard that Yinreng's head had been chopped off by his father, how could he stand there? Yinzuo stood at the door of the study, took a few deep breaths, and walked into the study as if nothing had happened, holding the things in his hand.
"Hey, what's going on today, second brother? What big thing have you done to make Khan Ama so angry? Ama, second brother is still young, please don't bother with him. I'll talk to him for you later. Come, calm down and see what good things your son has brought you. Clang clang clang clang, Ama, are these two little clay figurines well made? Don't they look especially like us father and son? Today, I went out to play and was attracted by the good craftsmanship of the clay figurine maker at first sight. I went over to describe it to the master for a long time, and it took more than half an hour before he made one that satisfied my son..."
Kangxi was furious just now, and was stunned when he saw Yinzuo suddenly come in from outside. This distraction gave Yinzuo an opportunity to take advantage of him. He grabbed his arm and dragged him to the flower hall outside the study. Kangxi didn't come to his senses until he held the two small clay figurines handed to him by Yinzuo in his hand. He first glared at Yinzuo who was standing aside with a smile, and then he looked at the two small clay figurines in his hand.
The craftsmanship of this clay figurine maker is really amazing. He can make the character so similar based on Yinzuo's description alone. He is indeed worthy of being called amazing. Kangxi looked at the clay figurine in his hand over and over for a long time before carefully placing it on the table beside him, and then turned to look at Yinzuo beside him.
"Humph, you're pretending quite well. If I hadn't seen you peeking at the door just now, I'd have really thought you were new. I'll take these two little things. You can leave if you have nothing else to do..."
Leave? That wouldn't work. His unfortunate second brother was still kneeling in the study with a bloody head. His second brother had been good to him all these years. He couldn't just run away when he knew he was in trouble. Even if he left today, he had to get his second brother back, right? Having made up his mind, Yinzuo didn't care if Kangxi was angry or not. He walked over to him, squeezed his butt and sat next to his father, then hugged Kangxi's arm and acted like a scoundrel.
"Father, I just got here, why are you sending me away? My second brother made you angry, and it's unreasonable for you to get angry at me. I'm not saying anything to you, if you were angry, why didn't you just hit my second brother a few times and that was it? At the very least, slap him on the palm or the back. Look at how you hit my second brother's head. Does it look good for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Qing Dynasty to have such a broken head? And it would have been fine if you just hit him in anger, but you didn't even call a doctor for him. I just saw the wound on my second brother's head bleeding. You might have been angry and didn't notice that my second brother's face was so pale... Tsk tsk, it's so heartbreaking..."
After all, Yinreng was the son that Kangxi had raised since childhood. Although the relationship between father and son had not been the same as before due to some things in recent years, he was still the flesh and blood of Kangxi. When Kangxi heard what Yinzuo said, his angry expression changed, and his eyes instantly showed a bit of worry. However, he had just lost his temper, and it was obviously too difficult for Kangxi to lose face by asking him to go see Yinreng at this time.
"Alas, Eunuch Liang, quickly send for Doctor Wang, and have the study clean up. Come, second brother, let me help you up. I'm not saying anything bad, but when Khan Ama gets angry and throws a teacup at you, you just kneel there and let him hit you. You're no match for me in this regard. You have to get up and run. In a straight line, a curve, an S-shaped line, you can't let this teacup fall on your head..."
Although Kangxi did not stop Yinzuo from going to the study to help Yinreng up, Yinreng naturally did not dare to get up without his order. Yinzuo couldn't help but frowned when he saw Yinreng stubbornly refusing to move that day. He sighed helplessly and suddenly asked in a loud voice.
"Brother, how do you feel now? Does your head hurt? Are you dizzy? Are you seeing black in front of your eyes..."
Who is Yinreng? Seeing Yinzuo like this, how could he not understand what he meant? But the same thing still applies. Today, Yinreng and Kangxi are both stubborn. Even though he understood Yinzuo's intention, he shook his head firmly. Yinreng's shaking of his head made Yinzuo slap his forehead anxiously. No, second brother, when are we still so stubborn? I'm not saying that to you, it's useless to be stubborn now, because that fire-breathing dragon outside likes to chew on hard bones the most. Can't we be softer? Don't they say that as long as there is green mountains, there is no fear of running out of firewood?
"Brother, what do you mean? Nodding yes, shaking your head no? How can you answer at this time that you don't feel any pain, dizziness, or blacking out? You must feel pain, dizziness, and blacking out at this time. Come on, let me ask you again, brother, does your head hurt, do you feel dizzy, or do you feel black in front of your eyes?..."
Yinzuo squatted beside Yinreng and whispered a few words to his second brother, then asked Yinreng the same questions as before, and without waiting for Yinreng to answer, he shouted loudly outside.
"What? Second brother, you said you had a headache, you felt very dizzy, and you even felt like you were seeing stars. Oh my, this is terrible. Eunuch Liang has already gone to ask for Doctor Wang, he will be here soon. Second brother, just hold on. Oh my, why are you still dizzy? Father, father, please come quickly, my second brother has fainted..."
Yinreng knelt there stupidly watching Yinzuo acting enthusiastically, listening to him calling "Father" with a slightly tearful voice, "Second brother has fainted." If Yinreng was not the person who fainted, he would probably believe it just by looking at him like this. The person outside was fooled by him. Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, Yinreng had only one thought in his mind at this time, did he faint today or not?
