Being stared at by six princes, big and small, with eyes of different emotions, Jiang Ranli felt very uncomfortable. She then cast a resentful look at Yinzhen. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be in this situation now.
Noticing Jiang Ranli's gaze, Yinzhen smiled at her ingratiatingly and used his eyes to convey what he wanted to say.
I didn't expect them to come.
So what do you think?
Jiang Ranli glared at them angrily and retorted, saying that he didn't expect them to come. Didn't he say that he had made all the necessary preparations?
Yinzhen silently looked at the two people who were communicating with their eyes, and pain welled up in his heart again.
When the Thirteenth Prince saw this, he quickly spoke up to break the silence, "Li'er, didn't you teach the Tenth Brother a game he had never seen before this morning? The Fifteenth and Sixteenth Princes were bored, and I thought it would be more fun to play the game with more people, so I brought them here."
When saying these words, the Thirteenth Prince felt a little guilty. He brought the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Prince here not because he felt sorry for the two boys being bored, but because he felt sorry for his Fourth Brother who was sad. That was why he brought the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Prince here as shields.
Jiang Ranli's eyebrows twitched. She was in awe of these famous princes of later generations. Where were their noble and distinguished births? Where were their supposed talents and geniuses? Instead, they were all obsessed with playing games, especially the Thirteenth Prince.
"Games? Li'er, you play games without me? I've been nice to you in vain." The Fourteenth Prince was very angry. He knew that he was wrong to almost betray her in the morning, but she couldn't play games without him.
Jiang Ranli was a little confused by the Fourteenth Prince's shout, and it took him a long time to sort out the situation.
First of all, he only said that he would teach the Tenth Prince how to play games, but the prerequisite was that he had to wait until he finished writing Mencius's "The Book of Learning". Therefore, the game was still a non-existent thing at the moment. As a result, the Thirteenth Prince came with the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Princes to kill him, and the Fourteenth Prince also started to get angry.
Thinking about this, Jiang Ranli couldn't help rubbing her brows. Not to mention whether Fourteenth Prince was good to her, just talking about his ability to understand, didn't he hear that it was a game or something, or it was just a nonsensical thing?
Seeing Jiang Ranli rubbing his eyebrows, Yin'er frowned, and his eyes became particularly stern. He swept over the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth people, and the latter were startled by his gaze.
"Thirteen and Fourteen, how old are you both? Why are you fooling around with Fifteen and Sixteen? How can you be worthy of the Emperor's expectations and trust?"
The Thirteenth Prince opened his mouth but could not say anything when he heard this. He didn't want to make a fuss with the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Princes, but since the Fourth Prince wanted to see Jiang Ranli, he was just helping the Fourth Prince.
Seeing that the thirteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth men all lowered their heads and were unable to speak, Yinzhen said, "Ninth Brother, the Emperor orders you to inspect the patrol team from today on."
After saying this, Yinzhen turned around and left. When the thirteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth people saw him, they hurried to follow him.
"Ninth brother, why did the emperor suddenly ask you to be in charge of the patrol team?" asked the fourteenth prince in confusion.
Yinzhen was silent after hearing this, and then said, "I heard that something happened in the capital this morning, and the Emperor sent General Jiao back. General Jiao was accompanying us to be in charge of inspection. I think it was because he was away temporarily."
In the afternoon, the patrol team set off again. Yinzhen inspected the team according to the decree of Emperor Kangxi. Jiang Ranli welcomed the first trip without Yinzhen.
Sitting alone in the spacious carriage, Jiang Ranli felt much more relaxed. As he looked at the scenery passing by outside the carriage, his eyelids became heavier and heavier.
