Yin'e dragged Yinsi, Yin'er and Yinzhen to the street at dawn today, but Cheng'an has not been seen until now.
This is normal. After all, the capital city is not small. Since he doesn't dare to send anyone to investigate, he is just taking a chance.
"Why don't we go back first?" Yinsi suggested after walking with him for a while.
Yin'e shook his head: "Cheng'an finally came out, I have to accompany him anyway."
As he finished speaking, two pedestrians walked by and said with a hint of smile: "The child just now was born really good-looking."
"Yes, I have never seen such a smart child in my life. He looks like a young master raised by a wealthy family."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
When Yin'e heard this, his eyes lit up slightly. He stepped forward to stop the two passers-by and asked, "Where did you see the child you are talking about?"
The two passers-by saw that he was dressed in luxurious clothes, so they naturally dared not say anything. They pointed in the direction they were coming from and said, "It's just over there on the street."
"Thank you." After getting the answer, Yin'e said politely and walked forward.
Yinzhen followed him and said, "How could it be such a coincidence?"
Although he also felt that there was no child in the world who was more handsome and intelligent than his younger brother, he still believed that such coincidences did not exist in the world.
"Just go and take a look and you'll know." Yin'e thought that he had no direction left or right, so he might as well try his luck.
It wasn’t far away, so Yinsi and the other two finally followed him towards the street.
At this time, Kangxi and his entourage had just gotten out of the carriage. Cheng'an did not let anyone hold him, but stood on the ground, holding his father in one hand and his second brother in the other, looking around with his little head.
The father and son were both well-dressed and well-groomed, and they attracted a lot of attention when they appeared on the street.
Yin'e saw them from a distance, and his expression was immediately a little surprised: "I said I had good luck today!"
As he finished speaking, he saw a man selling candied haws passing by. He immediately stopped the man and bought a string, then continued walking forward with brisk steps.
"Has he forgotten that besides Cheng'an, there is also the Emperor?" Yinzhen thought that they came here without the Emperor's permission, and he was so eager to come forward, so he couldn't help but turn to Yin'er and said.
Yinzhen also shook his head: "He has been very bold recently."
After that, the three of them quickened their pace to catch up.
"elder brother!"
The bustling and lively streets of the capital were too new to Cheng'an. His two eyes were not enough to see everything, so when he first noticed Yin'e and others walking towards him from afar, he became even more excited.
When he found that Yin'e was holding the string of red candied haws in his hand, he immediately let go of Kangxi and Yinreng's hands and ran forward.
Yin'e looked at the little guy running towards him, bent down, picked him up with one hand, and handed him the candied haws with the other hand.
"Hello, brother~" Cheng'an held the candied haws tightly with his two little hands, smelling the sweet fragrance emanating from it, and smiled so hard that his little milk teeth were exposed.
Kangxi, who was a few steps behind, saw Yin'e and his companions and his eyebrows twitched slightly.
It was not convenient to reveal his identity in public, so Yinsi and the other two came forward and bowed slightly together with Yin'e as a greeting.
"Why are you here?" Kangxi asked calmly.
"My son has a day off today, so I wanted to go out for a walk. I didn't expect to meet my father. It's really a coincidence." Yin'e said with a silly smile.
Kangxi didn't know whether to believe it or not. He glanced at him and continued walking forward. Before leaving, he said, "He can only eat one."
He hadn't been out of the palace for a long time. Now that he was out, he wanted to get a good understanding of the people's sentiments.
"Yes!" Seeing that the emperor didn't seem to blame him, Yin'e secretly breathed a sigh of relief, regardless of whether it was temporary or not.
Cheng'an was now eating the candied haws in his hand. It was not easy for him to bite through the sugar coating, so he licked it slowly. After tasting the sweetness, his whole body was filled with joy.
Yin'e specially picked a big and round candied haws for him. It was still a bit heavy for Cheng'an, so he had to use both hands to hold it, and he could only eat it from the lowest one for convenience.
After licking the sugar coating for a while, the little guy thought of his brother and held up the candied haws and said, "Brother, have some~"
Yin'e thought of Kangxi's instructions just now, lowered his head and bit off a candied haws. After chewing it, he frowned slightly because of the sourness of the hawthorn inside.
Cheng'an saw his brother bite off the whole candied haws in one bite, and after a slight "wow", he turned around and shared it with the other brothers.
Yinzhen really didn't like eating this thing, so he waved his hand to avoid it early.
Yinzhen wanted to try it. After all, he really liked eating it when he was a child, but he was embarrassed to eat it when he grew up.
This would be a legitimate reason for him to taste the flavor of his childhood again, so he naturally would not refuse. When Cheng An handed the candied haws to him, he quickly bit off one.
Hmm, it tastes good.
The sweet and sour taste brought back Yinzhen’s childhood memories, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Yinsi was not very interested in the candied haws, but thinking that Cheng'an couldn't eat too much, he lowered his head and helped finish one.
"Is it delicious?" the little guy asked, shaking his head.
Yinsi nodded and said, "Not bad."
When Cheng'an leaned on Yin'e's shoulder and passed the candied haws to him, Yinzhi refused, thinking that it was for children, and said, "Brother, don't eat it, you can eat it yourself."
Yinreng also shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't want to eat.
"I don't like sweet things." Yinzhi said.
Seeing that his brothers didn’t eat, Cheng’an showed a look of disappointment on his face.
Yinzhen didn't want to eat it at first, but after seeing him look at him with that expression, he finally lowered his head and took a bite of a candied haws, then covered his lips with his hand and ate it quickly.
Seeing his fourth brother eating, the little guy finally started smiling again.
There were six candied haws in total, and only the last two were left. Cheng An raised it and licked the bottom one twice, then said to Kangxi who was walking in front of him, "Father, eat it~"
Kangxi knew what he was asked to eat without turning around, and simply waved his hand to indicate that he didn't want to eat.
After all, he was the emperor. Regardless of what happened in private, Kangxi still had to save face in public, so he naturally would not eat his youngest son's snacks.
"Who of you please have another one?" Yin'e saw that he still had two candied haws left in his hand and said to the brothers on his left and right.
Yinzhen shook his head: "If you want to eat, eat it yourself."
They all refused to eat, so in the end Yin'e had to solve it himself.
For him, the candied haws were eaten one bite at a time, but Cheng An still hadn't finished the sugar coating on the surface after a long time. The sweet taste was so delicious that his eyes curved, and he didn't forget to look around.
There are shops lining both sides of the street, as well as many small stalls and vendors, which together with the pedestrians passing by create a prosperous scene.
After looking around along the way, Kangxi nodded slightly with satisfaction.
After staying in Yin'e's arms for a while, Cheng'an kicked his feet to get off.
Yin'e put him on the ground, and he immediately trotted a few steps to look in front of a nearby stall.
After a while, there were suddenly more pedestrians around. The little guy, who was out for the first time and felt a little insecure about the unfamiliar environment, immediately retreated to Kangxi's side and stretched out a little hand to hold his.
There are princes around, and many guards both openly and secretly, so Cheng'an doesn't have to worry about anything.
However, Kangxi was relieved to see that he was so vigilant.
Holding Ama's hand, Cheng'an felt much more at ease and continued to stroll around the neighborhood.
As they were strolling around, he quickly ran to the back and held the hands of his brothers, and he held the hands of every one of them.
“It’s delicious~”
When passing by a stall selling fried cakes, Cheng'an was immediately attracted by the fragrance. Not only did he pull Yinreng closer, he also stood on tiptoe to look into the oil pan.
Fried food is delicious, but not only does the oil pan look a bit dangerous, but fried glutinous rice cakes alone are not suitable for him.
"Fried cakes are difficult to digest, so he can't eat them." Afraid that Yin'e would buy them for him if he saw that he wanted to eat them, Yinsi reminded him softly.
Yinreng also knew this, so he wanted to pull the little guy in his hand away from the stall.
However, the fried cakes were so fragrant and their golden appearance also attracted Cheng'an, so he refused to leave.
The little guy's arms were small and soft, and Yinreng didn't dare to pull too hard, so he remained in a stalemate with him for a while.
"So fussy." Yinzhi mocked him and picked up Cheng'an and ran forward.
The little guy was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he was already far away from the stall selling fried cakes.
After Yinreng and his men caught up, Yin'e gave Yinzhi a thumbs up, thinking that his idea was indeed straightforward.
"Give me a hug, second brother~" Cheng An saw that Haochida was gone, and puffed up his cheeks slightly, not wanting Brother Da to hug him.
When Yinreng reached out to take Cheng'an, Yinzhi suddenly felt a little regretful, thinking that Yinreng was really scheming and deliberately procrastinating to make him become the bad guy.
Without the delicious fried cakes, the little guy could only continue to nibble on the candied haws in his hand.
He had eaten all the sugar coating on the candied haws, and now only the hawthorn inside was left.
When coated with sugar, the candied haws taste sour and sweet, but without the sugar coating, they are only sour, and every bite makes his little face wrinkle.
Yinzhi thought it was interesting when he first saw him like this, but after seeing it twice, he felt sorry for him and said, "If it's sour, don't eat it."
Cheng An shook his head and said, "No, it's useless!"
"Cheng'an is so good." Seeing that Cheng'an knew not to waste time at such a young age, Yinzhen reached out and touched his little face with relief.
Yinreng glanced at Yinzhi indifferently. Although he didn't say anything, his expression vaguely conveyed the meaning of "You are not as sensible as a child."
Yinzhi was a little unhappy, but the emperor was right in front of him and he was holding Cheng'an in his arms, so he could only snort coldly in the end.
"Can he eat hawthorn?" Yinsi thought of this question.
The one at the bottom of the whole string of candied haws was the smallest, especially after the sugar coating was removed, it was not that big. Yinzhi glanced at it and said, "I think it's okay to eat only this one."
After Cheng'an finally ate the hawthorn, he twisted his body and went down to the ground again.
There were so many interesting things on the street, and soon he was attracted by a stall selling rouge and powder.
At this time, he was holding Yinzhen in his hand. Seeing that he was interested in these things, Yinzhen refused to approach the stall and told him: "These are things that your mother and her family use. Cheng'an, be obedient, let's go look somewhere else."
"Oh my god~" His words did not dampen Cheng'an's interest, but instead gave the little guy a reason.
Yinzhen really didn't want to accompany him to see rouge and powder, so he stuffed him into Yin'e's hands.
Yin'e didn't care. After all, he wasn't afraid that the rouge and powder would make him get a stomachache, so there was no harm in just taking a look.
After the two brothers approached, the owner of the cosmetics stall immediately introduced them to Yin'e: "Sir, take a look at the rouge and powder. They are all top-quality goods. If you buy some for your wife, I guarantee she will be pleased..."
Yin'e didn't think there was anything good on the stall outside, and he didn't need to please his wife, so he just picked up the little guy who was not even as tall as the stall and said, "Look."
The little girl who was picked up immediately reached out and picked up a box of rouge, opened it and saw the red color inside, which she thought was very beautiful.
The boss immediately realized that it was this little customer who was interested. Seeing that they didn't look like they were short of money, he introduced the brightly colored items that would attract children: "This peach blossom pink..."
It doesn't matter who you sell to, as long as he can make money, he doesn't care about the customer's age.
"An An wants to~" Cheng An said after taking the rouge and powder handed to him by the boss and looking back.
Yin'e said without a word: "Buy!"
The few boxes of rouge and powder on the stall were not worth much money, but he took out his wallet without saying a word.
"Hello, brother." Cheng An said immediately with a smile.
In the end, the rouge and powder that were bought were taken away by the servants, and Cheng'an only had a small box left in his hand to play with.
Because Yin'e didn't let him touch the powder with his hands, saying that he wouldn't be able to eat if he got his hands dirty, the little guy stuffed the rouge into the small purse on his waist.
After walking a little further, there is a stall selling calligraphy and paintings.
Seeing some ancient books on the stall, Kangxi, Yinreng, Yinzhi and others couldn't help but walk over.
Yinzhi had no interest in ancient books, so he took Cheng'an to browse the stalls nearby.
Soon, Cheng'an was attracted by a sugar painting stall and immediately let go of Yinzhi and ran over.
There were several painted Chinese zodiac animals on the table of the sugar painting stall. The one that attracted the little guy the most was naturally the dragon-shaped sugar painting. After he ran over, he subconsciously reached out for the sugar painting.
The owner of the sugar painting stall is an old man in his fifties. Older people like children, especially cute-looking children like Cheng'an.
"Here." Seeing that he wanted it, the old man took down the sugar painting and handed it to him.
"Thank you~"
Cheng An took the sugar painting and said to him in a baby voice.
Seeing that he was so polite at such a young age, the old man immediately laughed and didn't even intend to take any money from him.
Just as the old man was about to reply and tell him that the candy painting was for him to eat, a fierce voice suddenly came from the side: "I want this, give it to me!"
The person who spoke was a child of about six or seven years old. He also took a fancy to the dragon-shaped sugar painting, but he didn't expect it to be taken away first.
"Please wait a moment, young master. I will draw another one for you." The old man selling sugar paintings quickly comforted him.
He has been painting sugar paintings in the capital for many years. He has seen many well-behaved and sensible children, as well as quite a few spoiled ones like this one. Naturally, he knows that such children can only be coaxed.
However, the child couldn't wait and reached out to grab the sugar painting in Cheng'an's hand: "Give it to me!"
"No!" Cheng An usually looks obedient and gentle, but he is not someone who will allow himself to be bullied. He simply turned away and refused.
Seeing that he dared not to give it to him, the child reached out to push him.
Seeing this, Yinzhi quickly picked up Cheng'an and scolded him, "You are looking for a beating!"
If it was just a quarrel between children, he would not have participated, but when he saw that this stranger dared to attack his own brother, he suddenly wanted to hit him.
Cheng An saw that Da Ge seemed angry, so he quickly raised his head and called him softly: "Da Ge~"
The child had just been very fierce towards Cheng'an, who was younger than him. Seeing the tall and strong Yinzhi, he immediately took two steps back, but then he clenched his fists and shouted: "I have a brother too, I'll let my brother come and beat you!"
Even when Yinzhi was imprisoned, no one dared to speak to him like this. They immediately sneered and said, "My Lord is waiting. You let him come!"
This kid is too young, and if he attacks, it would be like bullying the weak. But if the other party’s brother dares to come over, humph!
The child's brother was probably nearby, and he immediately turned around and shouted, "Brother! Brother, come here quickly--"
At this moment, Kangxi and others who had just finished browsing the bookstall came over. After seeing this scene, they looked at Yinzhi and asked him questions.
"This kid tried to steal Cheng'an's sugar painting but failed and tried to push him, and even said he would ask his brother to beat me." Yinzhi's expression was full of disdain when he said the last sentence.
After he finished speaking, he remembered that he had not yet paid for the sugar painting, so he signaled his followers to give the money.
When the old man selling sugar paintings saw that they were about to make a scene in front of his stall, he took the money and quickly packed up his stall and left.
Hearing that someone was bullying Cheng'an, Kangxi, Yinreng and others just frowned, but Yin'e shouted directly: "What!"
He was not as particular as Yinzhi. When he heard that the child in front of him wanted to bully his brother, he simply reached out and grabbed the other person's clothes and lifted him up.
The child who was picked up began to regret running around. He kicked his feet in the air and was about to cry out of fear. He shouted more anxiously: "Big brother..."
Soon, a young man heard the noise and came over with his servants. When he saw his brother being arrested, he immediately shouted angrily, "How dare you touch my brother? You don't even ask who I am!"
He came from Kangxi's side, so the first thing he saw was Yin'e's back.
However, when he came closer, Kangxi and others recognized him from his clothes and thought he was a member of the Eight Banners.
Yin'e turned around upon hearing the voice, threw the child in his hand towards him, and sneered, "Who are you? Tell me if you can!"
He originally wanted to call him Grandpa, but suddenly remembered that the emperor was still alive, so he paused and changed his words honestly.
After the young man caught his brother, he saw the person opposite him clearly and his expression changed immediately.
In fact, the first people he saw were Kangxi and others, but as a mere descendant of the Eight Banners, he did not have the ability to enter the palace to see the emperor, so he only knew Yin'e, the Prince of Dun, who liked to wander around the capital when he had nothing to do.
"Brother, they are the ones who bully me, beat them!" The child who had just been scared and crying became arrogant again after finding a backer.
Upon hearing this, the young man directly clamped him under his armpits and started spanking him on the buttocks. While spanking him, he said to Yin'e with a smile, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Master Shi, you are a magnanimous person, please don't bother with me. I will take care of this bastard right away!"
Seeing that he actually knew him, Yin'e raised his eyebrows slightly: "How dare I call you master? Aren't you the master?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, look at my stinky mouth." The young man said and then slapped himself hard on the mouth a few times before continuing to beat his brother, beating him until his brother cried loudly.
He was just an ordinary member of the Eight Banners. He could act arrogant in front of ordinary people, but he had to bow his head when he met members of the royal family, let alone princes.
When Cheng An saw the child crying after being spanked by his brother, he couldn't help but use his free hand to touch his own butt.
After Yinzhi noticed it, he laughed and joked: "If Cheng'an doesn't obey, he will also be spanked. Are you afraid?"
"No, An'an!" The child's crying was still in his ears, and Cheng'an immediately shook his head.
Seeing that he had just been bullied and Yinzhi was threatening him, Yinreng couldn't bear it and directly grabbed the man into his arms, and whispered to him: "Don't worry, no one dares to hit Cheng'an."
Cheng'an heard his words, nodded, and suddenly looked at Kangxi and whispered: "Ama Da An An."
Kangxi did slap his little butt occasionally, but never with much force, except for that time when he was playing in the mud and he didn't control his strength well enough to make him cry.
Kangxi didn't expect him to say this. He glanced at him and said, "It seems that I... really didn't hit him lightly!"
"Hello, Father~" Hearing his words, Cheng An, who didn't want to be beaten, quickly spoke to him in a baby voice and acted coquettishly.
At the side, Yin'e saw that the young man was obedient and taught himself and his brother a lesson, so he said nothing more. Instead, he looked at Kangxi with a asking look, and only waved his hand and told them to go away until Kangxi did not say anything.
"Yin'e, you are very impressive." After the two brothers ran away, Yinzhi couldn't help but look at Yin'e.
The emperor was still present, so Yin'e dared not show off his power in front of him. He was so scared that sweat broke out on his back, thinking that Yinzhi was going to harm him.
This matter could be big or small, Yin'e quickly found a reason to explain: "Such a small person has a narrow vision and is only worthy of knowing someone like me."
"Cheng'an wasn't scared just now, was he?" Yinsi couldn't see Kangxi's expression, so he stepped forward to change the subject.
Cheng An held the sugar painting in his hand and shook his head: "No~"
"He is very brave. Just now, when that kid wanted to snatch his sugar painting, he directly refused. If he was not too young, I wouldn't have to do anything." Yinzhi didn't really want to harm Yin'e. He just felt that there were so many of them around, but that guy only knew Yin'e, so he spoke out.
Yinzhi was very confident in his younger brother and felt that he would teach him martial arts when he grew up. The next time he encountered such a situation, he would be able to beat the other party to a pulp.
The brothers all smiled when they heard this, thinking that their brother would definitely not be a cowardly person.
Of course, even if he was really timid, no one would dare to bully him with them protecting him.
"Ama, look, brother, look~"
Cheng An didn't take what happened just now to heart, and quickly held up the dragon-shaped sugar painting in his hand to show off: "Ah An An!"
After hearing his words, Kangxi and others present, except Yinzhi and Yinreng, no longer thought he was talking like a child.
"As soon as you come out, you only know how to eat candy." Kangxi frowned as he looked at the huge candy painting in his hand, and then looked at Yinzhi who bought the candy painting for him.
"My son knows he is wrong." Yinzhi admitted his mistake honestly.
Cheng An looked at Da Ge and then at A Ma, and raised the sugar painting in his hand to him: "A Ma, eat it~"
Kangxi would never eat such children's food, especially since he was old and didn't like such sweet things.
"Give it to your elder brother." Kangxi said.
He had spoken, so Yinzhi had to eat it even if he didn't want to. He immediately opened his mouth, bit the dragon's tail and broke off a large piece of candy.
Although sugar paintings look good, they taste hard and sweet.
While Yinzhi was chewing with disgust, Yinzhi and the others were looking at the destroyed dragon shape and were a little worried that Cheng'an would cry.
However, the little guy unexpectedly did not cry, but laughed instead. He seemed to think it was very interesting that Da Ge ate the dragon's tail in one bite, and even lowered his head to bite the dragon's horn.
He was small and had small teeth, so he could only bite off a little bit of the dragon horn.
"Give Brother Ten a bite." Thinking that the emperor wouldn't let him eat more, Yin'e took the initiative to speak.
Upon hearing this, Cheng An immediately reached out his hand and opened his little mouth to teach him how to bite: "Awoo..."
Yin'e didn't need him to teach him, he just bit off a dragon horn directly.
