There was nothing that could be done; once the person learned to read and write, Yinzhen could no longer be fooled.
It's not something he can fool with just a few gold ingots.
And the little guy knows how to find loopholes.
He would insist on sleeping with his father and mother at the slightest disagreement.
Yin Tang could only be appeased with gold, and it took him a month to realize what was happening.
Feeling wronged, she complained to Sherry!
Sherry thought for a moment and said, "Our courtyard is a bit too small! Next time Father bestows a gift, let him give us a large mansion! After all, our collection room is too small, our study is too small, our garden is too small, and it won't be enough for the children to live in when they grow up..."
Upon hearing this, Yin Tang deeply agreed!
He gave his wife so many treasures, but she could only display a few of them; if she wanted to see the others, she had to look for them.
The more Yinzhen thought about it, the more he realized it made sense!
Then he couldn't wait to enter the palace.
After all, the completion of a railway line like the Beijing-Shanghai line deserves recognition, right? And credit should be awarded to them, right?
Besides, Emperor Kangxi was already very happy because of the twins!
Besides, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, so he has to make a fuss.
Before he could even utter a sound, Emperor Kangxi waved his hand and bestowed upon the twins a garden!
Near Changchun Garden, people have already been arranged to survey and construct it. It has been named "Xiangrui Garden".
Now the princes and nobles are jealous again.
The key is that even if you envy her, you can't have it; Sherry has no idea what she's going to face.
Yin Tang entered the Qianqing Palace in high spirits.
"May Your Majesty be blessed!"
Emperor Kangxi was pleased to see his energetic appearance.
"You've received the message, haven't you?! I remember you can design things yourself, so go and design the garden yourself!"
"Yes! Your Majesty, I thank you on behalf of the Emperor for your generous gift!" Yin Tang was even happier, his mind filled with design plans.
Kangxi frowned slightly upon hearing about the mountains of gold and silver, and asked Yin Tang with some hesitation.
"Ninth Brother, what are you talking about, mountains of gold and silver?"
"Salkab and Honghao! Your son has given them these nicknames! Don't they sound especially nice, grand, and auspicious?"
As Yin Tang spoke, he felt inexplicably shy, but the more he talked about it, the better he felt about the name! What a grand, auspicious, and powerful name!
Tsk tsk tsk, it's no wonder he's so talented!
Yinzhen looked delighted, completely unaware that his father was looking at him with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
Kangxi glanced at Liang Jiugong, whose mouth was agape. Liang Jiugong quickly lowered his head, his mouth agape, suggesting he was about to burst out laughing.
Emperor Kangxi rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache, still wanting to salvage the situation.
Did your wife say anything else?
Yinzhen finally stopped his wishful thinking: "She said that I am exceptionally brave and brave, wise and righteous, with outstanding abilities, as handsome as Pan An, and as elegant as a jade tree in the wind—"
Emperor Kangxi almost laughed in exasperation at the sight of his smug expression.
He asked him what he had asked that made him so self-aggrandizing.
To be fair, it does sound pretty good, no wonder Lao Jiu is so confident.
"Ha! You certainly know how to flatter yourself! By the way, what about your wife? I think you still have too few women in your harem!"
Emperor Kangxi narrowed his eyes and suddenly spoke.
"Father, it costs so much money to support one person, that's such a waste! I think it's too much! It would be better to use that money to help a few orphans or impoverished students!"
Yinzhen looked distressed. Xue Li hadn't made things difficult for those women, but they had still spent quite a bit.
Of course, this is just Yinzhen's opinion. He's fine with anyone he likes, but he'd feel bad spending an extra copper coin on someone he doesn't like.
Kangxi: ⊙▽⊙
Emperor Kangxi felt inexplicably exhausted!
"Alright, you can go now if there's nothing else!"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!" Yin Tang finally remembered the important matter. "The Beijing-Tianjin railway line has been completed! It connects the north and south directly, saving half the journey compared to previous years. Your Majesty, I plan to extend it eastward next! By the way, I request Your Majesty to bestow a name upon it!"
As he spoke, Yin Tang handed over the prepared memorial and his written plan for the next steps.
Kangxi was laughing heartily at this moment. He had received the news early in the morning and was initially surprised by the speed at which the Ninth Prince was building infrastructure.
"Hahaha..." Kangxi said as he walked out and patted Yinzhen on the shoulder, "Ninth Prince, you're very good!"
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen raised his neck like a majestic rooster, his face full of pride!
It is right to emphasize that it is truly deserving of its name.
Emperor Kangxi was momentarily surprised, but then even more delighted.
Over the years, the children have grown up and are mostly afraid of him.
He realized that Ninth Prince Consort was right; his Ninth Prince was indeed wise and benevolent!
Leaving aside the annual disaster relief efforts, the charity has already helped countless abandoned infants.
Haven't you heard that you can't see any beggars on the streets anymore?
I heard that they also plan to provide livelihoods and subsidies for disabled veterans.
Thinking about it this way, Kangxi was even happier.
"Ninth Prince, you are truly my good son!"
Upon hearing this, Liang Jiugong was so surprised that he looked up and glanced at Yinzhen.
Yinzhen laughed heartlessly and said, "Your Majesty said, 'Just do good deeds and don't worry about the future!' I'm happy about that! Besides, I also want to do my best to share Father Emperor's burdens!"
Kangxi's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. He paused for a moment, then continued reading Yinzhen's plan.
Then I handed it to him again!
"Well said, just do good deeds and don't worry about the future! Your wife is a virtuous and capable helper!"
"Absolutely! We're a match made in heaven!" Yin Tang happily put the plan away again.
Kangxi suddenly felt a bit conflicted!
Sure enough, the Aisin Gioro family produces romantics! He thought it was just a rumor, but now that he sees it, he'll just let it be.
He was not unaware that Yinzhen always slept in the main courtyard, while the concubines in the back courtyard were merely for show.
"Let's call the Beijing-South Line No. 9. After all, our Lao Jiu has worked hard for several years, and we should let future generations know who did all this."
Yinzhen looked incredulous, and said with a mixture of shyness and emotion, "Father, I am unworthy of such praise! This is all I should do! Father is so busy with state affairs and has not taken credit for it, so my little contribution is even less worthy of such recognition!"
Emperor Kangxi looked at the Ninth Prince with admiration; this child had indeed grown up very well.
He is intelligent, kind, and not greedy for credit.
"I do have a small wish that I would like to ask Father Emperor to grant!" Yinzhen said, while secretly glancing at Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi was quite pleased; this was more like it, wasn't it? It would be frightening if someone were truly without desires or wants.
"Oh? What is it? Tell me!" Kangxi was quite puzzled!
“Now that we have more children, I feel the manor is a bit small! We’ll have more children in the future, and besides, my wife and I like to research soaps and essential oils in the manor, which takes up some space! May I expand it myself? Or we could move to a bigger manor!”
Yinzhen looked at Kangxi with eager anticipation.
After all, this was his wife's long-cherished wish.
Emperor Kangxi smiled and said, "That's it?"
Yin Tang nodded, "That's fine."
Kangxi then pointed to a place with a large courtyard. It was a bit remote, but it was big enough, and there was a hot spring with mountain spring water that could be diverted. There were also mountains, water and trees nearby.
