Although Kangxi was very angry at first when he saw Yinzuo destroying his things, his anger naturally dissipated a lot during the verbal argument with Yinzuo. Now, when he heard Yinzuo say that he wanted to give him some new work, you know what, he was quite looking forward to it.
"Alright, I want to see what new tricks you can come up with this time. If your flattery doesn't satisfy me, you won't be able to escape this beating today."
Don't even mention Kangxi. Even Yinzhen and Yinreng are eagerly waiting to learn from Yinzuo, the top student. They want to see why he can always make their father happy, while they will hit the horse's leg eight out of ten times.
If Yinzuo knew what his elder brother and the others were thinking at this moment, he would definitely tell them not to waste his time. Why could Yinzuo always flatter his father? Of course, it was partly because they had known each other for so many years, but more importantly, it was obviously Kangxi's preference and trust for him from the bottom of his heart.
"Don't worry, Father. If my flattery doesn't make you happy, then go ahead and hit me. I promise I'll just stand there and not move. But before that, Father, could you please let go of my son's ears? There are so many people watching here. My son is already a grown man, and it's so embarrassing for you to hold him by his ears."
Seeing Yinzuo like this, it was obvious that he was very confident in his new job. Upon hearing this, Kangxi released the hand that was holding Yinzuo's ear, and asked someone to go into the house and bring out a few chairs for everyone. He then placed them around the open space, surrounding Yinzuo in the middle, as if he wanted everyone to watch his performance from all angles.
Of course, with the thick skin of our Prince Zhao, it is obviously unlikely that you can expect him to feel embarrassed. He just stood in the circle, clasped his fists and bowed to everyone like a street performer, then turned to face Kangxi and spoke with a smile.
"Hey, after such a beating of the bamboo clappers, let's not praise anything else but Yinzuo of the Aixinjueluo family for having such a good father. As the saying goes, there are greener mountains beyond the mountains and higher buildings beyond the buildings. My father is a cow. The moon in Qin's time is bright and the pass in Han's time is clear. My father is not simple at first glance. If the sky has feelings, it will also grow old. Meeting my father is a blessing. Love will always be there despite thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. Can you please forgive me this time?"
It’s impossible to learn this technique. It’s really impossible to learn it at all. Yinzhen and the others are completely paralyzed now. No, they have been memorizing these ancient poems since they were young. After so many years, why didn’t they think that this thing can be used in this way?
"Hahahahaha, Sixth Brother, you're a great flatterer. How about you find some time to teach us brothers your technique? Don't worry, it won't be in vain. We'll pay you a fee..."
"That's right. Otherwise, why didn't I flatter Father Khan in the right way before? It turns out that it's all because of my poor skills. Second brother is right, Xiaoliu, why don't you teach us sometime later?"
Facing everyone's teasing, Yinzuo remained extremely calm. He first bowed to everyone to indicate that everything could be discussed, then turned around and looked at Kangxi next to him. His meaning was obviously to ask, "Father, are you satisfied with my performance?"
So was Kangxi satisfied with Yinzuo's new life? Looking at his grin that showed his teeth but not his eyes, it was clear that his father was extremely satisfied.
"Alright, since you've realized you're wrong this time, I'll forgive you this time. If you dare to behave like this again and rummage through my study, I'll show you how I'll deal with you. This snowman is well made. Since the pearls are already embedded in it, let's leave it like that for now. Wait until the snowman melts and is cleaned up before bringing it back to me. Yinzuo, help me up. Let's not sit here in this cold weather. Let's go inside and talk."
What do you mean he already knows he's wrong? Khan, are you hallucinating? Did he ever admit he was wrong from the beginning? And you're going to punish him again? You've said that countless times, yet you've never punished him. Humph, and the emperor's words are golden? So you're targeting the person, not the issue, right?
As the saying goes, a higher-ranking official can already crush someone, not to mention the pressure of filial piety. Even if Yinzhi and the others wanted to complain, they could only silently complain about his father in their hearts. After the matter was resolved and another hurdle was passed, Yinzuo was obviously in an extremely good mood. He reached out to help his father get up from the chair, turned around and smiled, inviting his brothers into the house.
"Big brother, second brother, third brother...it's so cold, let's not just stand here. I just went to Ama's study and found more than just these two pearls and jade pendants. Ama also hid a whole bag of gemstones. Come in later and pick some out. Go back and embed them on your hats, belts, or just put them anywhere to look at. It'll be fun..."
A big bag of gems, and everyone wants to pick some together. If it weren't for these words, why would it sound so niche? Those who know him are talking about priceless gems, and those who don't think he is talking about stones that can be found everywhere on the street.
But it was clear that no one was going to be polite. They exchanged glances, then stood up and followed Kangxi back into the Qingxi Library. "Are you asking Kangxi if he has any objections to Yinzuo just giving away his huge bag of gems?" "Haha, didn't you see they've already started dividing up the spoils over there?" "What good would it do for him to object? It's just a bunch of pretty stones, the kids can take whatever they like. There's no need for him to spoil everyone's fun at this moment."
Kangxi's tacit behavior obviously encouraged Yinzuo's arrogance of robbing the rich to help the poor. After distributing the bag of gems in his hand, he was not satisfied. He turned around and went into his father's study and brought out a pile of top-quality jade materials and spread them on the table for everyone to choose.
"Come on, come on, everyone, don't be polite. Just take whatever you like. Our father has plenty of these things here. Third brother, don't you usually like things like bamboo, beads, and jade? Take a look here to see if there is anything you like. If not, it doesn't matter. Just tell me what you like and I can go to the box and find it for you. Second brother, I remember you said last time that you wanted to find a good piece of jade to carve a paperweight. Do you think this one is suitable? Fourth brother, can you be more proactive? You are so unselfish that you seem to be out of tune with everyone else..."
Yinzhen glanced at Yinzuo and wanted to remind him to restrain himself in front of Kangxi, but when he turned around and saw the cheerful Kangxi, Yinzhen swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. Well, since no one was stopping him, why should he rush to be the bad guy? As I said, he should stay out of the affairs of the two men. Since one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten, it would be a waste for them to take this thing.
