After Yinzuo slapped himself unconsciously, he immediately woke himself up. There was no way he could help it because it really hurt. Didn’t you see that the half of his face that was slapped was red?
"Ama..."
In fact, Yinzuo didn't even need to go and complain, because Kangxi had already glared at Yinzhi.
"Yinzhi, do you think you have nothing to do? If he wants to sleep, just let him sleep. Why do you have to mess with him for no reason? Look at the marks on his face now... Go back and copy the Diamond Sutra a hundred times and send it to me. I want to check it myself..."
Well, let's just say that it's not good to be naughty. Now it's okay. After copying the Diamond Sutra a hundred times, his claws will be crippled. But as the saying goes, there is no medicine for regret in the world...
Although Kangxi was quite worried about the red mark on Yinzuo's face, Yinzuo himself obviously didn't take it to heart. Once the pain was over, he acted as if nothing had happened and was even interested in watching his elder brother have fun.
"Brother, congratulations! You always say that reading ten thousand books will make you write like a god. I guess copying books is the same. After you finish copying the Diamond Sutra a hundred times, your calligraphy will surely reach a new level. I'm really envious..."
Envy, that's great, then you should quickly beg your father to give you this good opportunity, Yinzhi looked at the gloating expression on Yinzuo's face, and finally couldn't help it, so he raised his hand and poked his cheek with a red mark.
"You're welcome, Xiaoliu. Big brother is here to congratulate you too. You've had such a great start to the new year..."
Well, isn't this just hurting each other? I have to say that they are indeed brothers. They are very skilled when they fight. They really poke each other in the ribs.
Yinzuo obviously didn't get the upper hand from his elder brother this time, so he turned around and started to complain to his father. Kangxi has always been a protective person. Although those on the imperial carriage are all his protégés, there is still a difference between the palm and the back of the hand, isn't there?
"Alright, Yinzhi, just keep quiet. You're already grown up, but you don't know how to be considerate of your younger brother. Liang Jiugong, go get me the ointment from the drawer. Yinzuo, you should also behave yourself. Come here, let me apply the ointment on you..."
Since Kangxi had said this, neither Yinzhen nor Yinzuo dared to continue making trouble. They snorted at each other and then returned to their previous seats.
Yinzuo had delicate skin, and the red marks on his face looked serious, but they actually disappeared within two hours after applying the medicine.
After returning to Tangquan Palace, Yinzhen, Yinreng and others had to follow Kangxi to the front to receive local officials who came to see him without even catching their breath. Yinzuo was naturally spared this because he still had a red mark on his face, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.
Yinzuo was pulled out of bed before dawn in the morning. Naturally, he had to make the most of his free time to catch up on his sleep. After all, his fourth brother and the fourteenth brother were not at home this year, and he was the only one to accompany his mother to celebrate the New Year, so he couldn't fall asleep halfway.
The family dinner on New Year's Eve was no different from the previous ones in the palace. After the dinner, which was more formal than substantial, everyone went back home to visit their mothers as usual.
When Yinzuo brought Honghui, Hongshi, Hongxu, Hongtun and Hongming to the courtyard where Concubine De was, Dexi had already been waiting there with his men. Seeing Yinzuo and the others coming from afar, he hurried over to greet them.
"Master, the things you asked me to prepare have been delivered and are now placed in this courtyard. Do you think we should arrange them here or find another place..."
The courtyard where Concubine De lived was not very large, and it was obviously not appropriate to place the things Yinzuo asked Dexi to prepare here. He pondered for a moment and finally decided to let Dexi take people to send the things to Meilin first to arrange them, and then he would take the children there after midnight.
Although everyone lives close to each other now, Hongxu and his gang are very playful and run around with others all day long, so Concubine De has little chance to spend time with these grandchildren.
As soon as Yinzuo came in with a few children, Defei immediately greeted them warmly, looking at this one, hugging that one, and watching them for a long time before letting go of the little ones. Honghui, Hongxu and Hongshi were okay, after all, they were old, so Defei would at most pull them to look at them, and at most pinch their faces.
But the two little guys Hongtun and Hongming were in a miserable state. Their mama kissed and hugged them so much that they were finally let go until they were almost desperate.
Apart from Hongshi, Honghui and Hongxu had all gone through this since childhood. As people who had been through it, seeing the two little guys Hongtun and Hongming looking so hopeless, they naturally had to go up and comfort them.
"It's okay, Hongtun, Hongming, trust your brother. Our mama is always fickle. In two years, when you're older or when brother Honghui has a son, you'll be free..."
Well, Hongxu is indeed a traitor just like his father. As soon as Hongtun and Hongming said this, their eyes turned to Honghui. The meaning was very clear: Big brother, when are you going to give birth to a son?
"Hey, don't look at me like that, I just got married this year, and it's too early to have a child. As the saying goes, distant water can't quench immediate thirst. You two are counting on my son to save you. Why don't we just be patient for another two years..."
Well, look at these filial people, what does it mean to be patient for two years? Did she do something despised? Why is she even using the word "patient"?
As the saying goes, the youngest son and the eldest grandson are the lifeblood of an old lady. Concubine De was reluctant to blame her eldest grandson, so she directed her spearhead at Yinzuo, her son who was watching the fun from the side.
"You rascal, you're still laughing? Look at what these kids have learned from you. Look at how old you are, and there are so many children watching you. What are you doing here? Why don't you sit down right away..."
Yinzuo obviously didn't expect his mother to be so unsportsmanlike. No, I was just sitting here and provoked you. It's New Year's Day, and you're not allowed to laugh?
"Mother, can we be reasonable? I haven't said a single word to you except for greeting you since I came in. Don't I feel unfair for being scolded for no reason? What's the point of me being in this situation? This is definitely my bad luck..."
As the name suggests, staying up late on New Year's Eve means that the whole family stays up all night together. After all, Concubine De is old, and she naturally cannot stay up as late as Yinzuo and others. After midnight, she asked someone to help her go downstairs to rest.
Yinzuo didn't feel sleepy at the moment because he had made up for his sleep during the day. Seeing that Concubine De had gone to rest, he simply got up and took Honghui and the others out for a stroll towards Meilin.
Don’t underestimate Hongtun and Hongming, two little guys, because they can be on standby for two hours after charging for five minutes. Their battery life is amazing. After staying up with the adults for such a long time, they didn’t feel sleepy at all.
