Kangxi was afraid that Yinzuo would get too angry and beat the child without restraint. Yinzhi was also afraid. After all, the child came to him because of his uncle's excellent riding skills. As an uncle, since he had received such praise from his nephew, he had to share the blame for him.
"Don't worry, uncle. Ama loves me the most and will definitely not punish me for such a small matter."
Okay, now it is confirmed. This kid is really ignorant and fearless. Yes, it is true that your father loves you the most, but nephew, you are still young and may not know this saying. As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the more severe the criticism. You are destined to be punished today.
Yinzhen and the little one had just arrived at the gate of Changchun Garden. Before they even entered, they saw Wanquan, who had come here to wait for them. Who was Wanquan? He was the disciple and godson of Liang Jiugong, the chief eunuch of the Qianqing Palace. It was obvious that he was waiting at the gate on the orders of Emperor Kangxi.
"Your Majesty, Little Prince, you are finally back. The Emperor has asked me to wait here. When I see Little Prince back, I will take him directly to Qingxi Library. The Sixth Master got very angry today because Little Prince sneaked out, and the Emperor is trying to comfort him. Your Majesty, please..."
Yinzhen wasn't stupid; he understood Wanquan's unfinished words. The conclusion was that his Sixth Master was angry. The young prince was probably going to be in trouble today, and he would need to protect him later.
"My dear nephew, if you say we are going to turn back now, can your father chase us to my garden and beat you up?"
Even though Yinzhi said that he would take Hongxu back, he knew it clearly in his heart that it was impossible for him to go back now. Not to mention whether Yinzuo would chase him, could Wanquan let him escape easily?
"Hongxu, uncle is telling you, when you see your father later, you should hug his thighs and cry as hard as you can. The more miserable you cry, the better. It would be best if you can make your father lose his temper. Then you can be exempted from the punishment today."
In order to hold on to his little nephew, Yinzhi was so worried that he even used the ultimate trick that Yinzuo used to subdue his Khan father when he was a child. But as the saying goes, it is useless if the emperor is not anxious. No matter how much Yinzhi worries, he can't stop the little guy from being blindly confident.
"Uncle, Ama said that a real man sheds blood but not tears. How can Hongxu cry when he is a man? Don't worry, Uncle, Ama really loves me the most. I am his dear little baby."
Okay, you want to kiss my little baby, right? Then you'll just have to fend for yourself later. When your father spanks you, you'll understand your uncle's good intentions.
"Hongxu, you bastard, you still remember to come back? Get down from your uncle's arms. Eunuch Liang, go to my father's study and get his ruler for me. Dexi, move a stool over and press Hongxu on it. If I don't beat his ass till it blooms today, he won't know why the flowers are so red."
Yinzuo had been practically pacified by Kangxi, but when he saw the little creature in Yinzhi's arms, smiling brightly at him, the anger he had just suppressed suddenly flared up again. "Laugh! You still have the nerve to laugh? I've been so frightened for so long, and you still haven't realized your mistake? Fine, then I'll show you today that I can be kind, but I also have dignity."
It was not until Dexi pressed him on the stool that Hongxu realized that today's matter would not end peacefully. Yinzuo was really kidding when he said he wanted to spank Hongxu's buttocks. The movement of the ruler rising and falling was so smooth that everyone could enjoy it. Fortunately, although he looked very angry, he still knew his limits in his heart. Although the movements of his hands looked quite big, the strength was controlled just right. In a word, the ruler hit the flesh but hurt the skin but not the bones.
"Father, Hongxu knows he's wrong. Please forgive me this time, okay? I promise you that I will never sneak out again."
Hongxu is young but not stupid. He was so calm before because he thought that according to Yinzuo's love for him, he would not punish him even if he knew that he sneaked out. It's not that he didn't know where he was wrong. Now that the ruler has fallen on his buttocks, the little guy naturally won't be stubborn. After all, his father once said that a real man can bend and stretch.
"You admit your mistake now? It's too late for me to tell you. Didn't I tell you before that when you go out to play, you must bring someone with you and inform your parents? Tell me, when you sneaked out to look for your uncle today, did you tell me or your mama? If you had just remembered to leave someone to inform us, your mama wouldn't have beaten you today. Do you know how worried your mama was when he found out you were missing? Do you know how sad your mama was crying..."
Why did Kangxi call Yinzuo to Qingxi Book House? It was because he was afraid that he would hit Hongxu too hard. Seeing that Yinzuo was getting more and more angry, he quickly gave a look to Yinzhi who was standing aside. After Yinzhi successfully received the signal, he quickly walked to Dexi's side, pulled him aside, and raised his hand to pick up Hongxu, who was crying and about to die, from the stool.
"Liang Jiugong, what are you still standing here for? Why don't you go get the imperial physician? Yinzuo, you said you were right too. The child knows he's wrong, so why don't you just give him a little punishment? It's not worth beating him like this. Yinzhi, carry Hongxu to the bed and take off his pants. This will make it easier for the imperial physician to apply medicine to him later."
Even if Yinzuo was angry, Hongxu was his biological son after all. Since Yinzhi had already taken him away, he naturally would not chase after him to snatch the child back and continue taking pictures. Seeing Yinzhi and Kangxi walking towards the bed, he simply threw the ring in his hand to the ground and followed them.
Who would dare to neglect the imperial physician when Qingxi Book House asked for him? Liang Jiugong brought the imperial physician back quickly. Although the wound on Hongxu's butt looked red and swollen, it was not very serious. After the imperial physician applied medicine on him, there was no need to bandage him. He just told him to apply the medicine frequently and let it dry for a few days and it would be healed.
Hongxu had been crying hard just now, and the cool feeling from the medicine on his buttocks masked the pain, and the exhaustion from crying out loud came back. Although Yinzuo felt sorry for his son and wanted to take care of him personally, he had been raised in luxury since he was a child, and even his ability to take care of himself, which he had acquired in modern times, had deteriorated to an unknown degree, let alone serving others.
Kangxi stood beside the couch and watched Yinzuo apply medicine to Hongxu. His unfamiliar movements made Kangxi frown, and he wished he could go forward and grab the medicine to help him apply it.
"You're still thinking of taking care of Hongxu yourself? I don't know how much suffering the child will suffer in your hands. After applying the medicine, I will have someone send Hongxu to your mother. It will always be more reassuring to have her watching over him. You must be tired after tossing around all afternoon. Liang Jiugong, go clean up the side hall and take your Sixth Master to rest for a while..."
