Chapter 30 The Tenth Prince, a Wise and Foolish Man



Yinzuo, who thought his fourth brother was worrying too much before going to bed the night before, fell ill the night he returned from spring plowing, just as Yinzhen had worried. His body told him that, yes, you are a waste.

"Doctor Li, please come and take a look at Sixth Prince. He was fine before going to bed, but I don't know why he had a fever in the middle of the night."

"Don't worry, the temperature doesn't feel too high. I guess I sweated during the spring plowing yesterday, and the wind made me feel a little cold..."

Yinzuo heard the conversation between Dexi and Doctor Li while he was in a daze due to the fever. At that time, he had only one thought in his mind: this is the end. If his brothers knew about this, they would probably laugh at him.

As expected by Yinzuo, his brothers were very enthusiastic about seeing him having fun. Because they were tired from the spring plowing yesterday, Kangxi felt sorry for his sons and gave them another day off. So the princes who had nothing to do came to visit him in waves as soon as they heard the news early in the morning.

"Sixth brother, your small body is really tough. Look at Old Eight, he's so much younger than you, and he also worked a whole day on the farm yesterday, but he's still full of energy today. I think you're just too lazy and lack exercise..."

"Sixth brother, I'm not saying anything bad to you, but after you recover from your illness, you can't be as lazy as before. How about this, from now on, I'll call you to exercise every morning..."

"Big brother, this is a good idea. Sixth brother, you should practice more with me in the future. I can't say you will become very strong, but at least you won't be so weak..."

Faced with his brothers' worries or admonitions, but generally with a gloating ridicule, Yinzuo simply gave in. Just kidding, he was now a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. He put on a thick face and accepted everything.

"Third brother is right. I have to learn from Old Eight in the future. But what Third brother said is wrong. A man cannot say no. Although I am a little lazy, I am still strong. Look at this arm. Isn't it all muscle..."

"Thank you, big brother. I appreciate your kindness, but there's no need to ask me to come with you for training. With my current level, I'd be a drag on you..."

"Fourth brother, believe me, this was a complete accident. Don't worry, I will not be lazy in the future horse riding and archery lessons. I will definitely study hard. Let's not trouble Big Brother anymore."

He finally managed to send away the brothers who came to watch the fun, but before he could lie down for a while, Kangxi got the news and sent people over, followed by Concubine De. Anyway, for the whole morning, people were coming in and out of Yinzuo's yard, and it was very lively.

Although Yinzuo's illness came on severely, fortunately it was just as Doctor Li said, it was just a cold after sweating, and it was not serious. After being held down by Yinzhen and Dexi and drinking bitter medicine soup for a few days, our Sixth Prince was full of energy again.

After May, even the little princes like Yinsi, who were in school and oblivious to the world outside and devoted themselves to reading books of sages, had heard about the increasingly tense atmosphere in the court, not to mention Yinzuo, who had to visit the Qianqing Palace from time to time.

Ever since the news that Kangxi was going to use military force against Junggar came out, the eldest prince, who could be seen from time to time in the Shangshufang on weekdays, has not appeared. It is said that he has been arranged by Kangxi to go to the camp outside the capital to assist Prince Yu Fuquan, and the Crown Prince Yinreng was directly tied to Kangxi's side, and he was almost taught hand in hand to familiarize him with the government affairs of the court.

It has been several days since Yinzuo strolled around the Palace of Heavenly Purity as he used to. It was not because Kangxi was too busy to bother with him, nor was it because he was self-aware and felt that his presence would cause trouble for others. It was because he felt that Kangxi was too unkind and he couldn't stand his idleness since he was busy himself. Every time he went there, a bunch of unimportant greetings would be handed to him to deal with. Although it was very simple to deal with, he only needed to write the words "read" on each one, but he still felt that this behavior was too eye-catching and too dangerous.

"Yinzuo, you're being a little ungrateful. Being able to share the burdens of Khan Ama is a blessing we can't ask for. Are you sure you're not showing off?"

When Yinzhi learned that Yinzuo had avoided helping Kangxi handle the memorials, his first thought was, "This kid is really getting ahead of himself. You know, among all the princes now, not even the eldest prince, except for the crown prince, has never touched a memorial? Does he dislike you? It's because he likes you too much. That's because of the Khan's trust. He's allowed you to touch memorials that only the emperor and the crown prince can touch. What else do you want?"

Isn't it said that they are brothers of the same bloodline? Sure enough, after hearing the news, everyone's reaction was similar to Yinzhi's, thinking that Yinzuo was ungrateful.

"Third brother is right. Sixth brother, I think you are really getting carried away..."

"Sixth brother, you are just showing off..."

"Yes, Sixth Brother, this is the case that a full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man. We want to help Khan Ama share his worries, but he doesn't even give us this opportunity..."

Yinzuo glanced at the little kid in front of him who was making sarcastic remarks along with everyone else, raised his hand and gave Yinlu a slap on the forehead.

"Oh, a full man doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man. Are you a man? At best, you are just a boy. You are imitating your third brother to say sour words about your sixth brother. If you are capable, go sit over there and be quiet."

If someone else dared to hit Yin'er on the head like this, he would definitely not let it go. Even if he couldn't get revenge at that time, he would find a way to retaliate afterwards. But who told him that it was his sixth brother who hit him on the head today? Even though he was reluctant, he could only whisper at this moment.
