Chapter 3: A fulfilling yet boring life of recuperation



He originally closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep just to avoid being idle, but he was injured and weak, so he finally fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already dark outside. There were only a few candles lit in the huge room, and the light was not strong. Yinzuo glanced around and found that Concubine De was not there, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Young Master, you are awake. You must get up now."

As soon as Yinzuo woke up, Dexi, who had been paying attention to the movements here, noticed it. She called the palace maid serving outside to come in and light the candles in the room. She then quickly walked to the bed and carefully helped Yinzuo sit up from the bed. She even considerately took a pillow to support his back.

"Dexi, where's mother?"

You have to know that she is the apple of Concubine De's eye. It was fine at other times, but now that she is injured, she is not here to guard her. This seems a bit unbelievable to Yinzuo.

"Young Master, please drink some water to moisten your throat first. His Majesty came to see you just now, but he saw you were sound asleep, so he didn't wake you up. And right now, Consort De is outside talking to His Majesty. I've already sent someone to pass on the message. I think His Majesty and Consort De came over after they knew you were awake for a while."

Just as Dexi said, before Yinzuo finished his glass of water, the door was pushed open from the outside, and then Defei and Kangxi walked in.

Yinzuo stopped drinking water at this moment. He stared at the tall man who came in with Defei. My goodness, this is the living Kangxi, a character who only exists in history books. Although Yinzuo has received the original owner's memory and knows what Kangxi looks like, he has never seen it with his own eyes. Now the character in the history book is standing in front of him, so why not take a closer look?

"What's wrong with Xiaoliu? You don't recognize Khan Ama after just two days?"

When Kangxi was old, he was wary of his sons like he was guarding against thieves. When he got ruthless, he would chop even his own sons with a knife. If everyone hadn't tried to stop him, the fourteenth son would have been crippled even if he hadn't died.

However, Kangxi was only in his early thirties at this time, at the prime of his life, holding great power. Naturally, he did not have the suspicion he had in his old age. Besides, he did not have many sons, and each one of them was a treasure to him. When he heard that his two sons had fought and the younger one was injured, even though he was busy with government affairs, he still squeezed out time to come and see them.

Seeing that his youngest son looked in good spirits despite having a head injury, he felt relieved. However, he could not help but tease him since he came in when he saw that he had been staring at him.

"Of course I know you, Khan Ama. I just haven't seen you for a few days. I missed you so much that I couldn't help but stare at you a little longer."

Yinzuo has never been a person who cares much about face. Ever since he lowered his face and acted coquettishly and cutely in front of Yinzhen, he has become completely shameless. Now he acts like a child with no pressure at all. Looking at his sticky energy, no one would have thought that there is an adult soul living inside this body.

Sure enough, Kangxi was very pleased with Yinzuo's friendly and loving attitude. He walked to the bedside with a smile, sat down, and lovingly touched Yinzuo's little head.

"Does the wound on your head still hurt? You're lucky it wasn't serious this time. Let's see if you dare to be so naughty next time."

The wound was of course painful, after all, it was knocked in the morning and was still fresh. Yinzuo always knew that children would not be fed until they cried, so he would naturally not endure it at this time. Although this father was a bit of a scumbag later, he really loved his son at this time. So Yinzuo acted like a spoiled child, not only to make Kangxi happy, but also to get himself a lot of benefits. The biggest benefit was that his hard-working trip to the Shangshufang was delayed until autumn.

Because Yinzuo still had injuries on his head and body and was not convenient to move, Kangxi did not care. Defei loved her child even more, so dinner was simply placed outside Yinzuo's room. The family of three had a simple meal. Kangxi played with Yinzuo for a while and then returned to the Qianqing Palace because he had some unfinished official business.

For the next half month, Yinzuo's life was both fulfilling and boring. It was fulfilling because there had not been a single peaceful day in Yonghe Palace since he was injured. Apart from his father Kangxi who came to see him every day without fail, all the concubines in the palaces came as well. Even the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, who had lived in Cining Palace for a long time and had no interest in worldly affairs, and the Empress Dowager, specially asked Su Malagu to make a visit.

Of course, several of his brothers also came to pay a visit during this period, including the eldest prince who was infamous. Yinzuo called for help according to the vague memory of the original owner, and then paid special attention to his eldest brother who was said to be particularly cruel.

To say that he was bored was truly boring. As Defei's precious treasure, it was no exaggeration to say that Yinzuo held it in his palms for fear of touching it, and held it in his mouth for fear of it melting. Although he felt that it was completely feasible for him to get up and move around, his mother thought he couldn't. For half a month, except for when Kangxi came, he could move around a little, and the rest of the time Defei didn't give him the chance to leave the exquisitely crafted bunk bed. Although such a life of lying flat was what Yinzuo had always longed for in his previous life, after lying down for half a month, Yinzuo couldn't help but sigh that this was too flat.

"Dexi, let's run away while our mother is away. Where does Fourth Brother live? I haven't seen him for several days. Lead me to go find him and play."

Previously, he could just lie down because his injury had not healed completely, but since Doctor Li gave him a comprehensive examination yesterday and confirmed that he was completely recovered, Yinzuo was unwilling to lie down for even a minute. He dreamed of living a life of idleness and waiting for death, not wanting to go straight to the last step. Who wouldn't be allowed to get out of bed for half a month? He was not in his seventies or eighties. He hadn't even counted the first word of the word seven yet. Lying down for half a month was already the limit.
