Was Kangxi happy about Yinzuo's arrival? The answer is obviously yes. When he heard his beloved son's voice, his face was so bright that it almost wrinkled.
"Ah, it's said that children are all debts. Look at him, he's already grown up, and every time he comes in here, the first thing he does is look for his father. Liang Jiugong, go out and see what this kid is yelling about. Don't tell me he's sending someone to embarrass the cooks in the imperial kitchen again."
Regarding Kangxi's behavior of appearing to be disgusted but actually showing off, Zhang Tingyu said that he just smiled and said nothing. When he saw Kangxi stand up, he also stood up and stood aside, saying that he looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and lowered his head and pretended to be a wooden man.
Although we could hear Yinzuo's voice before seeing him every time he came, the same thing still applies: if we could hear his voice, he could have come from far away. Before Liang Jiugong even reached the door of the flower hall, Yinzuo had already come in.
"Oh, Master Zhang is here too. It seems I'm here at an unfortunate time. I need to go to the imperial kitchen and ask my second brother to join me for dinner. Father, Master Zhang, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving now."
Even though Yinzuo was not deeply involved in the court, he was still familiar with Zhang Tingyu, an important official who served in the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties and was often summoned by Kangxi. After Yinzuo came in and saw that Zhang Tingyu did not leave immediately, he knew that there must be important matters to discuss between the emperor and his ministers. As I said, our Prince Zhao has never been a person without vision. He knows what he knows and knows what he does not know. He understands the truth.
When Kangxi saw Yinzuo coming in and about to leave without saying a word, he quickly gave Liang Jiugong a look. Liang Jiugong received the signal from his master, took a wrong step, and stood in front of Yinzuo.
What's going on? Everything was fine when I came here, so now I can't go back? This shouldn't be the case. I don't remember hearing any big secrets when I walked in just now. Yinzuo raised his hand and pushed Liang Jiugong twice. Seeing that he remained calm and motionless, he couldn't help but look at his father in confusion.
"No, Father, what do you mean? You're not looking for an excuse to punish me, are you? Let me tell you, I didn't go anywhere today. I stayed in Shufengxuan the whole time. If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi..."
Although Yinzuo had no idea why Kangxi had Liang Jiugong stop him from leaving, he didn't feel the slightest bit nervous. He hadn't heard anything, let alone something he hadn't. Even if he had, what difference would it make? He simply didn't believe his father could do anything to him. After all, as the saying goes, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Historically, when his brothers had gotten into such a commotion, his father, aside from drawing his sword to chop fourteen of them, hadn't he just verbally lashed out.
"Hmph, you still have the nerve to accuse Fourteenth of judging others by his own standards? I think he learned this habit from you. I heard that Yin'er and Yin? were punished by you to stand in horse stance for over half an hour today because they stepped through your waterside gate with their left foot first."
Yinzuo has always been a man who dares to act and take responsibility in front of Kangxi. When he heard what his father said, he immediately nodded to indicate that this was indeed the case. Seeing that Liang Jiugong was still standing at the door of the flower hall and refused to move, Yinzuo understood what his father meant. Since the other party wouldn't let him leave, then he wouldn't leave. It was no big deal.
What was Yinzuo's life motto? One of them was "Don't make others suffer, don't make yourself suffer." Since he wasn't leaving, there was no point in standing at the door of the flower hall any longer. Yinzuo nodded slightly to Zhang Tingyu, who was standing not far from him, then strode towards his father. When he reached Kangxi, he didn't care about his attitude and pulled up a chair to sit next to him.
"Father, could you please stop mentioning Fourteen in front of our son for the next few days? I'm still heartbroken that our little pet left so suddenly. And you've heard so much. My son just dealt with those two brats, Nine and Ten, and you heard about it right after. Father, you're not going to do the same to me, are you? Okay, then let me ask you, which foot did I step in first when I walked in?"
As I said, Kangxi knew Yinzuo very well. He knew exactly what Yinzuo was up to by sticking his tail out. Fortunately, Kangxi didn't intend to deal with this kid. He just raised his hand and knocked on Yinzuo's forehead, then looked at Zhang Tingyu who was standing beside him.
Since Kangxi did not shy away from Yinzuo, Zhang Tingyu naturally followed suit. Then the emperor and his minister analyzed and summarized the affairs in the court from all aspects. After that, Zhang Tingyu came up with a specific plan and Kangxi made the final decision. As for Yinzuo, haha, the thing that Kangxi and the others discussed was like the best lullaby to him. He was already drowsy and thought he was in a trance.
When Yinzuo was gently woken up by Liang Jiugong, some of the candles in the flower hall had already been lit. The reason why not all of them were lit was probably because Kangxi saw that he was sleeping soundly and was afraid of disturbing his sleep. As a result, Yinzuo had just woken up for a while, and the flower hall that seemed a little dim just now was already as bright as day.
"Eunuch Liang, where is my father?"
When Liang Jiugong saw Yinzuo wake up, he personally wrung out the handkerchief and handed it to him, then replied with a smile.
"Reporting to the Prince, His Majesty, the Emperor and the Crown Prince are both in the study. Now that you are awake, I will send someone to inform them. His Majesty has just specifically instructed that you go directly to the dining hall after you wake up."
The dining room and study were not far from the flower hall, they were just in different directions. Yinzuo had just woken up and was still dazed, so his walking speed was naturally not fast. When he finally moved to the dining room, Kangxi and Yinreng were already sitting there.
"Sixth brother, look at all the delicious dishes on the table today. They really live up to your saying of "one flower stands out from the crowd". Come on, stop standing there. Weren't you just clamoring for a tomato feast? Now that everything is ready for you, hurry up and start eating."
Yinzuo looked at the table in the direction of Yinreng's finger. Wow, it was a sea of red. It had to be said that the chefs in the imperial kitchen had good skills and ingenuity. After all, taking the specifications of Kangxi's imperial meals as an example, all of them were made into tomato flavor. This task itself was difficult enough for them. Not only did they have to make it, but they also had to make it edible and delicious. It would be unacceptable if the imperial chefs did not have these skills.
Although Yinzuo seems to be very lively, when it comes to actual eating, his appetite cannot catch up with his father who is over fifty years old, nor can it catch up with his brother who is in his prime. He is burping because of his fullness before he even tastes the dishes on the table. He is the typical person with big eyes and a small stomach. But no matter what, the saying goes, although the food is free, the stomach is yours, and you can't force yourself to eat more.
