Let’s not talk about the shock Kangxi’s decision caused in the Shangshufang. Anyway, Yinzhen, who had just graduated from the Shangshufang a few days ago and didn’t catch the good times, was now so jealous that he was about to drown the Shangshufang.
"Alas, it's true that comparing people makes you dreadful, and comparing goods makes you throw them away. Li Yu, don't you think my luck is too bad? The moment I left the Shangshufang, the rules changed. A ten-day holiday! I couldn't even think of it before. Why didn't Khan Ama issue this decree sooner?"
But no matter how sour he was, it did not affect the good mood of Yinzuo and others at all, because after a long ten days of hard study and passing Kangxi's strict assessment, Yinzuo and others finally got their first holiday after the new regulations were introduced!
"Sixth brother, you don't have classes tomorrow. Have you figured out what to do?"
Speaking of this issue, Yinzuo had really thought it through. Since he came to the Qing Dynasty, except for the first year when he went to Mulan Paddock with Kangxi, he had been going back and forth to the Shangshufang, Nansanso, Qianqing Palace, and Yonghe Palace in the following years. He planned to take advantage of the holiday tomorrow to take people out of the palace for a walk. He didn't have the opportunity before because he was young, but now he is twelve years old. I think Kangxi should agree to his request.
"Fourth brother, I plan to go to the Qianqing Palace and ask Khan Ama if he would agree to let me take people out of the palace tomorrow. Ever since I went to Mulan Paddock with Khan Ama last time, I haven't even touched the palace gate."
Not to mention that he had never touched the palace gate, even Yinzhen, who was two years older than him, had never touched it. Isn't it said that people only envy what they don't have? Just like the eldest prince envied them for having a day off every ten days, they also envied Yinzhen, who had now graduated from the Shangshufang and could leave the palace at any time.
The holiday is only tomorrow, so in order not to delay leaving the palace tomorrow, Yinzuo said goodbye to Yinzhen and took his people to the Qianqing Palace!
"Yinzuo, if you have something to say, just tell me. If you don't have anything to say, just find a quiet place to sit down. You keep moving back and forth in front of me, making me dizzy."
It is said that no one knows a son better than his father. Although Kangxi did not know Yinzuo very well, they had known each other for so many years. Looking at his behavior, Kangxi knew that this guy probably came to him today for no reason. His behavior was so obvious that it was almost as if "Khan Ama, I have something to say" was written on his face. It would be a bit impolite for him to pretend not to see it.
"Hehe, it turns out that Khan Ama really understands his son. I came here today because I really have something to ask Khan Ama. Isn't it the ten-day holiday? Although I grew up in this capital city, I have never seen what the capital city looks like. I want to take advantage of the holiday tomorrow to go out for a walk. What do you think..."
Kangxi saw that the guy had been hesitant and speechless since he came in, and thought that he had done something wrong and came to him early to act nice. He didn't expect that he was hesitating for such a long time just because of this matter.
"Seeing you being so hesitant for so long, I thought you had something to worry about. You just wanted to leave the palace to have a look. It's not impossible for you to go out for a walk at your age, but this is your first time out of the palace after all, and it's not safe even if you bring someone with you. How about this, I'll ask your eldest brother to pick you up early tomorrow morning. I'll feel more at ease with him accompanying me."
Yinzuo obviously didn't expect Kangxi to agree to his request so easily, and he immediately smiled. For him, as long as he could go out for a walk, it was good enough. As for who he went with, he didn't care too much.
"Thank you, Khan Ama. I will not disturb you any more. I am leaving now."
Seeing Yinzuo slipping away after achieving his goal, Kangxi was dumbfounded. Why didn't he realize that this guy could be so ungrateful before?
"This brat, if I had known earlier I wouldn't have agreed to him so easily."
Although he had been looking forward to leaving the palace to have a look, when Yinzuo really stepped out of the palace, he was a little confused. The capital city is so big, where should he go next?
"Sixth brother, what are you thinking about?"
Looking at Yinzhi who was looking at him with a puzzled face, Yinzuo's eyes lit up. It didn't matter that he was not familiar with the capital, because there was a human navigation in front of him.
"Brother, are there any fun places in the capital? This is my first time out of the palace, and I'm completely unfamiliar with the capital. From now on, I'll have to rely on you to guide me!"
Of course, this matter was nothing to Yinzhen. What was he doing out today? Wasn't it just to take Yinzuo out for fun as ordered? Upon hearing this, he immediately patted his chest and promised.
"No problem, I'll leave it all to you, big brother."
The Beijing city hundreds of years ago cannot be compared with the Beijing city hundreds of years later, but for Yinzuo who was imprisoned in the palace for several years and could not leave, it was obviously impressive enough.
"Brother, there are some jugglers over there. Let's go take a look."
"Brother, look at this old man's skill in making clay figurines. Let's go over and make two to take back."
"Brother, although the food outside the palace may not be as exquisite as what we have at home, it is still rare. I will buy some more and bring it back to my fourth brother and my mother!"
“Brother…”
Yinzuo now found everything new. He wanted to watch acrobatics, make clay figurines, eat sugar-roasted chestnuts and candied haws from the street, and even the pastries that he would never even look at in the palace seemed new to him now that he was outside the palace.
Yinzhen felt dizzy from being called "big brother" over and over again. Finally, he could no longer bear it and dragged him into a restaurant on the street, all the way to the second floor, and asked the waiter to book a private room for him.
"Sixth brother, it's almost noon now. I thought you didn't eat anything this morning and you must be hungry. The roast duck in this restaurant is known to be the best in the capital. Why don't we eat something here, rest for a while, and then go shopping in the afternoon?"
