As dawn broke, Yin's villa became lively. Qingyan was still sound asleep when Yin quietly got up.
Yin put on his training clothes and went out, where Su Peisheng stood at the door.
"Su Peisheng, have the thirteenth and fourteenth arrived yet?" Yin asked directly.
"The Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince haven't gotten up yet!" Su Peisheng said in a low voice.
Yin turned and walked towards Yinxiang and Yin's room. When the nannies saw Yin coming, they became even more uneasy. They were going to wake the two princes up at the time they requested, but these two were always lazy in bed.
"Greetings to Fourth Master!" The two maids quickly bowed and greeted him.
"Get up and kowtow! Haven't they gotten up yet?" Yin was speechless; the two old women were almost terrified.
"Yes!" the two matrons whispered.
Yin stepped into the main hall and found the room very quiet, so he went to the left wing first, where the Fourteenth Prince lived.
"Fourteen, it's time to get up and do your morning exercise!" Yin's deep voice rang in Yin's ears.
Yin was still deep in sleep when he suddenly felt a chill all over his body. He groggily opened his eyes and found Yin standing by the bed.
"Fourth Brother... won't come, I must be dreaming!" Yin turned over and continued to sleep, facing inward.
"Fourteen, if you don't get up within a quarter of an hour, you're going to run 25 laps around the courtyard!" Upon receiving Yin's order, Yin sprang up from his bed and stepped barefoot onto the footstool.
"Uh, Fourth Brother, why are you here so early?" Yin smiled obsequiously.
"What time is it? Aren't you up for your morning exercise? Have you all started to get lazy because no one has been watching you lately?" Yin said, glancing at Yin.
"No, no, no!" Yin quickly denied, "I changed beds and didn't fall asleep until very late!"
Yin didn't really take it seriously, which also saved Yin face by not exposing Yin's plan.
"Fourth Brother, go and wake Thirteenth Brother up. I'm really awake now. I'll change my clothes and go out right away!" Yin quickly assured him.
Seeing the clear look in Yin's eyes, Yin nodded slightly and left.
In the right-hand wing, Yinxiang was still fast asleep under the covers. Su Peisheng stood helplessly by the bed, looking bitterly at the bulge on the bed.
"Master, the Thirteenth Prince is still not awake?!" For the first time, Su Peisheng failed to complete Yin's arrangements.
Yin waved his hand, signaling Su Peisheng to leave first.
"Thirteen, get up and start your morning exercise!" Yin gave the order.
Yinxiang seemed not to hear him and continued to sleep soundly.
Yinxiang did not respond even after being called several times.
Yin tilted his head and saw that Yinxiang had stuffed cotton balls into his ears, so it didn't matter who called him.
He reached into his right ear and removed the cotton ball: "Thirteen, it's time to get up and do your morning exercise!"
Upon hearing Yin's voice, Yinxiang jumped out of bed.
"Fourth Brother, what brings you here?" Yinxiang asked, rubbing his phoenix eyes and looking sleepy.
"Get up, both of you! You didn't get up today. This is a one-time exception, don't let it happen again!" Yin noticed that his two younger brothers had started to slack off.
The two of them were not yet married, so Emperor Kangxi specially placed them in a separate courtyard.
"Fourth Brother... this will definitely not happen again!" Yinxiang quickly assured him.
Fifteen minutes later, Yinxiang and Yin were led into the courtyard, where they began their morning exercise with Yin.
Qingyan heard footsteps coming from inside the courtyard and quickly asked Sulan to help her get up.
"Master, breakfast is ready. After your morning exercise, Master, Thirteenth Master, and Fourteenth Master can have breakfast." Su Lan tied Qing Yan's hair into two buns and adorned him with a set of light headdresses as she continued to report.
"Those two haven't gotten up yet, have they?" Qingyan glanced at the clock on the dressing table and realized it was almost seven o'clock. On any other day, Yin would have almost finished his morning exercise.
Ugh!
Su Lan laughed awkwardly. Her master was right after all. If these two gentlemen hadn't been holding hands, they would have finished breakfast just in time for the morning exercise to end.
"Master, this time the guess was right. These two princes didn't get up at all. It's said that the Thirteenth Prince's ears were stuffed with cotton, and the two nannies were helpless and couldn't wake him up at all." Su Lan burst out laughing when she heard the complaints from the servants in the two princes' courtyards.
What? !
Qingyan's almond-shaped eyes widened. Even Yinxiang would sleep in. In her heart, the Thirteenth Prince still held a very high position.
"The Thirteenth Prince is sleeping in?!" Qingyan was stunned.
Yin happened to be coming in from the doorway when he heard Qingyan's mutterings. He immediately lifted the curtain and walked in.
"Why can't Yinxiang stay in bed?!" Yin asked, glancing at Qingyan.
“In the past, when Yinxiang came to stay in our courtyard, he would get up according to his usual routine!” Qingyan said directly.
Yinxiang strictly followed the rules of the palace, and Yinxiang was very satisfied with his conduct.
"It's all because of Fourteenth Prince; he's become increasingly lazy. This won't do!" Yin said helplessly.
It seems that Kangxi also understood that only Yin could suppress Yin's temperament.
"Is this also the reason why Father Emperor sent the two of them ahead of schedule?" Qingyan asked curiously.
"Hmph, that must be it. Yinxiang and Yin must have done something to give Father a huge headache." Yin asked, and they looked like they wanted to say something but hesitated. He immediately understood.
"Pfft!" Qingyan chuckled. "Fourth Prince, you can't say things like that. How could Father Emperor not be able to control the princes!"
Yin pinched her cheek: "Let's talk about this in private. These two are getting wilder and wilder, they definitely need to be disciplined."
Qingyan nodded: "Sisi, how do you think the two of us should cooperate?"
After the twins were born, Qingyan discovered that Yiken was really too sensible, without any of the "naughty" traits of a child. Qingyan prepared many ways to discipline her, but none of them could be carried out.
"We can try it out on these two brats first. If Hafeng is really like them, life won't be boring from now on," Yin sighed.
Qingyan chuckled: "So, we still have a lot to do."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yinxiang and Yin's voices rang out in the courtyard. Yin sighed and walked out with Qingyan.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, you're up too?" Yinxiang greeted Qingyan, who was dressed in a lake-blue palace gown.
"Thirteenth Prince, you're up so early. Have you finished your morning exercise?" Qingyan asked directly from the stone steps.
Ugh!
Yinxiang gave an awkward laugh: "Of course, morning exercise is good."
