Chapter 138 Yu Jin's Eighteenth Year



Eighteen years old is a very important node for the Seventh Prince.

Before the age of eighteen, Yu Jin could be said to have been left alone. He had teachers to teach him books and martial arts, and as long as he wanted to learn, there would be someone to teach him. However, no one would force him to learn something he did not want to learn by claiming to be a prince.

The royal family, civil and military officials had a laissez-faire attitude towards Yu Jian, although they would show basic respect for the prince when they met him.

They were also waiting for the Seventh Prince to turn eighteen.

The Heavenly Master said at the time that the Seventh Prince was born with a conflicting horoscope with the Emperor, so the father and son could not meet. This would be resolved when the Seventh Prince turned eighteen.

They were just waiting to see if the emperor would remember this son after the Seventh Prince turned eighteen.

If they remembered, there would be no need to say more. If they had already forgotten about the Seventh Prince, they could just ignore him from now on.

Yu Jin's unrest was not because of this.

It's his birthday already, but Asi hasn't come yet!

unhappy.

Someone in a bad mood turned his eyes to a corner.

There lay a big dog, squinting its eyes and sticking out its tongue to cool down.

Someone was even more upset.

Could it be that Erniu was just kidding him? He was even cheated out of a bowl of meat and bones by this idiot!

Erniu seemed to realize something and turned his head, looking innocently at his black-faced master.

Yu Jin resisted the urge to kick Erniu away.

Forget it, after all, he raised the child, he won’t bother with a dog!

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Although the sound was not loud to the ears of the people in the yard, Yu Jin stood up instantly and strode towards the gate.

Long Dan called out from behind him, "Master, I'll go open the door."

There's Old Wang guarding the gate, why is the master so active?

Hey, could it be Miss Jiang coming?

"No need." Yu Jin replied to Long Dan, his voice full of anxiety.

The flames of gossip in Long Dan's eyes suddenly ignited.

He guessed right!

Oh my, Miss Jiang actually took the initiative to come to the master, and on the master's birthday, could it be that the master is about to have good news?

Yu Jin couldn't wait to walk to the door, and before the gatekeeper Lao Wang could react, he excitedly opened the door, and the smile on his lips froze immediately.

Standing outside the door was a tall, handsome man in his twenties, followed by two servants with extraordinary aura.

After a brief silence, Yu Jin called out calmly, "Fourth Brother."

The visitor was none other than the fourth son of Emperor Jingming, Prince Qi, who, like Yu Jin, was the son of Concubine Xian.

Two brothers from the same mother, one standing inside the door and the other standing outside, looked somewhat similar, both were outstandingly handsome. However, the King of Qi was a young man in his prime, his every move was full of nobility, while Yu Jin still had the coldness and unruliness of a teenager.

The fourth prince smiled and said, "Seventh brother, did you think it was someone else who came?"

His seventh brother has never been enthusiastic towards him.

Yu Jin's expression had long since returned to normal, and he asked calmly, "Why is Fourth Brother here?"

The fourth prince pointed to the door and said, "Seventh brother, won't you invite me in first?"

Yu Jin stepped aside to invite the Fourth Prince in.

The fourth prince looked around the yard.

The yard was not big and was neatly tidied. A tall albizzia tree covered half of the sky. A big dog was lying in the corner.

Leisurely and peaceful, but too shabby for the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince sighed: "Seventh brother, I asked you to live with me but you refused and insisted on living here alone—"

"How can I disturb the peace of my fourth brother and his wife?" Yu Jin said indifferently.

"Look at you, what are you talking about?" The fourth prince smiled indifferently, raised his hand and patted Yu Jin's shoulder, "Seventh brother, it's ok for you not to stay at my place for a long time, but you must come over today."

Yu Jin frowned slightly, not understanding what kind of medicine the Fourth Prince was selling in his gourd.

The fourth prince was stunned: "Seventh brother, you didn't forget that today is your birthday, did you?"

Yu Jin was stunned.

Of course he didn't forget, he was still thinking about giving him a surprise, but why was Fourth Brother thinking about his birthday?

For so many years, he has celebrated his birthday alone.

The fourth prince grabbed Yu Jin's wrist and said, "I have called the other brothers. They are all in my house now. The banquet is ready and we are waiting for you to go."

Seeing that Yu Jin hadn't responded yet, the Fourth Prince simply pulled him aside and said, "Seventh brother, in previous years you were not in the capital, so we brothers couldn't celebrate your birthday. You can't miss it this year."

Yu Jin thought about it and no longer refused.

Now that he's back and decided to stay in order to marry Asi, he'll have to integrate into this circle sooner or later.

Well, let's start from the day he turns eighteen.

Seeing that Yu Jin no longer resisted, the Fourth Prince smiled and said, "Just tell me, how can you keep it to yourself all the time?"

Today, my seventh brother is eighteen years old. Others may ignore it, but if he, as his brother from the same mother, turns a blind eye, he will inevitably be known as an unvirtuous person.

Arranging a birthday celebration for my seventh brother is a good thing to do.

If the emperor suddenly remembered his seventh brother, his action would be like timely assistance. When his seventh brother becomes successful in the future, he will remember his friendship and may even be a great help to him.

If the emperor completely forgets about his seventh brother, he can still gain a good reputation as a friendly brother and will not suffer any loss.

But his seventh brother really has a weird temper.

The fourth prince sighed in his heart, then curled the corners of his lips.

He has so many brothers, and each one of them is powerful enough. It is reassuring to see the seventh brother like this.

"Seventh brother, why don't you leave?" Seeing Yu Jin suddenly stop in front of the door, the Fourth Prince urged.

Yu Jin smiled and said, "It's okay, let's go."

I guess A-si won't come...

About half an hour after Yu Jin and the Fourth Prince left, Jiang Si appeared in front of the crooked jujube tree with Ah Man.

"Girl, should we go in or not?" asked Ah Man Fu'e.

You've been standing there for a quarter of an hour. What do you want?

"Go knock on the door." Jiang Si pursed her lips lightly and finally made up her mind.

She didn't come because it was that man's birthday today, but she just wanted to keep her promise. She promised Erniu that she would come a few days ago, and she happened to be free today.

What if she didn't come and that person bullied Erniu? What? Isn't Yu Qi childish enough to take his anger out on Erniu?

Jiang Si curled her lips. Stop joking, that bastard is such a childish person, she has experienced it before.

However, when he saw her coming today, would he mistakenly think that she was here to celebrate his birthday? He might even think that she cared about him and take advantage of him from then on.

Miss Jiang was struggling with her thoughts when the gate to the courtyard creaked open.

Facing the one-eyed man, Ah Man couldn't help but perk up: "Is Master Yu at home?"

"Not here—"

"exist!"

The disciple and Long Dan said in unison. After they finished speaking, they looked at each other in surprise.

Ah Man was stunned: "Is he there or not?"

"Woof——" A big dog pushed Long Dan away with its mouth and came out.

Ah Man subconsciously took a step back.

Oh my god, she has experienced the capabilities of this big dog and can’t afford to offend it!

Erniu walked past Ah Man, grabbed the hem of Jiang Si's skirt and dragged her inside.

For these stupid humans, it doesn’t matter whether the master is here or not. Of course, just drag them in first.
