As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer. After the verbal battle between Yinzuo and Yinreng, the only one who was hurt was Yin'er, who was listening. In his nearly thirty years of life, Yin'er felt deeply for the first time the gap between people. Sometimes it was even bigger than that between humans and dogs. The reward he got was not as much as what others lost when they chatted casually.
The two brothers, not caring about the other person's life or death, settled the accounts for a long time. In the end, Yinreng took the lead in the first half due to the age difference, and Yinzuo won the second half with the principle of sustainable development. In a word, what Yinzhen said was absolutely right. Kangxi was in power for more than fifty years. In the first twenty years, all the fatherly love and treasure were given to Yinreng, and in the last thirty years, all the fatherly love and treasure were given to Yinzuo.
"So, Second Brother, Sixth Brother, you two are evenly matched?"
Normally, the battle between Yinreng and Yinzuo for the father should have come to an end, but the bad thing was that there was a chatterbox Yin'er sitting next to them watching the show. Well, as soon as he said this, the two of them looked at him at once.
"Xiaojiu, if we don't say anything, no one will think you're dumb. What do you mean by evenly matched? We're not competing. We're just showing off in front of you as equals."
Equality, haha, what a clever word! Let's just say, what you just said has anything to do with this word? Well, you two are equal, and the rest of us are equal.
"That's right, Xiaojiu, you should try to keep your mouth shut when there are many people around. Otherwise, I'm really afraid that you will be beaten up by the crowd..."
Okay, okay, okay, it's not the time for you two to argue like before, right? You think I'm talking too much, and I'm getting beaten up by a group of people. Okay, I can't afford to offend, but can I just hide from them?
Don't tell me Yinzhen really can't hide. It's not that Yinzhen doesn't want to leave, but mainly because he came here with a mission, and now the mission is not completed yet? He has to be driven away, right?
"Second brother, sixth brother, you are clearly allowing the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps. I have a mouth, isn't it used to speak? What's the matter? You are allowed to show off in front of me as equals, but I am not allowed to complain."
Yinreng and Yinzuo looked at each other, and then looked at Yin'er, who was craning his neck and looking at them vigilantly. It was obvious from his expression that he was planning to run away if anything went wrong.
"Okay, Xiaojiu, find a place to sit down quickly. Looking at your lack of ability, my second brother and I are not going to eat you. By the way, what brings you here today?"
As mentioned before, Yin'er came here with a mission today. Hearing what Yinzuo said, he did not hesitate. He reached out and took out two letters from his arms, walked to Yinzuo, and placed the letters on the table in front of him.
"Here, this is a letter from Big Brother and Old Ten. It arrived at the Tianjin Wharf early this morning on a merchant ship. The manager there arranged for someone to deliver it quickly. After I got the letter, I rushed it to you..."
It has been more than a year since Yinzhen and his companions left in the 51st year of the Kangxi reign. Although Yinzuo had asked Yin'er to send them things on merchant ships several times during this period, this was the first time they had exchanged letters. After seeing the letter, Yinzuo naturally had no intention of arguing with Yin'er. He reached out and took the envelope on the table, opened it, and began to read it carefully.
"Hahahahaha~ Big brother is worthy of being the number one Baturu of the Qing Dynasty. Even though he's old now, he's still as brave as he was back then. Second brother, look at what's written here. He beheaded hundreds of enemy bandits? He killed more than a hundred little devils. Big brother is simply my god..."
After expressing his admiration for Yinzhi's bravery, Yinzuo turned around and picked up another letter on the table and began to praise Yinzhi.
"Look, I've told you all along, our Xiao Shi may seem rough and sloppy, but he's actually quite thoughtful. He knows I hate the Japs, so he's been following my "Three Alls" policy everywhere he goes. He even said he's collected a lot of goodies along the way, just waiting to give them to me when he gets back. Second brother, do you think you should envy him?"
Yinzhen, Yin? In the letter, in addition to showing off his own great achievements to Yinzuo, he also tacitly asked Yinzuo what he wanted.
Yinzuo was raised in luxury by Kangxi's Concubine De since he was a child, and he never lacked anything. Yinzhi, Yin? This question really stumped him. Someone came all the way here to write to you and ask if there is anything you want. You can't just give a casual answer, that would be a betrayal of their sincerity.
Yinzuo couldn't think of what he wanted to write for a moment and was not in a hurry. After all, it would take some time for Yin'er's merchant ship to set off again. He just had to think of the answer before that.
To be honest, Yinzuo was quite forgetful. He had been racking his brains to figure out how to reply to his elder brother and Yinreng, but within a few days, he had completely forgotten about it. Every day, he and Yinreng would roam around Changchun Garden with nothing to do, fishing rod in hand. His tanned skin had turned a healthy tan.
"Yinzuo, why don't we just stay inside and rest for a few days and don't go out? Look at my face, it's so tanned that it's the same color as my neck..."
Although Yinzuo usually did not care much about his appearance, when he heard Kangxi say that his face and neck were sunburned, he hurriedly asked Dexi and Wanquan to go to his father's bedroom and bring the dressing mirror over.
My goodness, you really don't know until you take a picture, and you'll be shocked when you do. His father's words just now were somewhat considerate of his feelings. Let's just say, is the person in the mirror with a clearly black and white face and neck really him?
"Father, do you think there's anything we can do to save our son's face? I don't want to walk around with a face like this from now on. Father, why don't we call Doctor Wang and ask him to think of a solution for me?"
If you ask Imperial Physician Wang if he has any solution for Yinzuo's tanned face, he will definitely answer you with two words - haha. What we mean is that even if he has no solution, facing the threatening eyes cast at him by Kangxi and Yinzuo at the same time, does he dare to say no?
"Don't worry, Your Highness. Although your face is a bit darker from the sun, it's not sunburned. You can ask Eunuch Dexi and this old minister to go back and get some ointment. Apply it regularly, and it will be almost healed in a month or so."
Doctors are always so reserved. They clearly meant to leave everything to time, yet they insisted on prescribing an ointment. Doctor Wang's medical skills were impeccable, and the ointment he prescribed was naturally quite effective. Coupled with Yinzuo's amazing self-healing abilities, it hadn't even been a month, and Yinzuo's face had almost fully recovered.
