Along the way, Kangxi felt that he had given the Hesheli family and Yinzhi too many opportunities, and they had betrayed his trust.
"Fourth Brother, these past few days have been quite peaceful." Qingyan leaned on Yin's shoulder, stretching her back in the sunlight, feeling truly comfortable.
These days, everyone is on edge, fearing that Kangxi might suddenly lose his temper. This time, the source of the trouble is Yinzhen.
Qingyan was unaffected by anything; she frantically focused on the wild game. Unlike the grasslands, this place was backed by mountains and forests, where there was plenty of food.
The two little figures, with no restrictions on their movements, led Su Peisheng, Su Lan, and the guards towards the county town.
Her little face was flushed in the carriage.
"Little darling, starting tomorrow, you will continue to study Mandarin." Yin disapproved of some of her little habits. She was clearly a very intelligent girl, but she was incredibly lazy.
She is absolutely a genius when it comes to learning Chinese, but she seems to be exceptionally slow at learning Manchu and Mongolian.
"Fourth Prince, didn't you say it would only begin after we returned to the capital?" Qingyan looked at him with a cute expression, determined not to let Yin get away with it this time.
"Who said that? Right now, even Father Emperor can't stand your boredom." Yin was a little annoyed. Qingyan's leisurely and carefree appearance was truly enviable.
During dinner last night, Emperor Kangxi gave a secret order that she must have something to do.
He held her little hand, not letting her aggrieved little eyes defeat him, even though he had been defeated by them many times before.
"Sisi, it's not like they don't want to learn, how can you blame me for this?" Qingyan pouted. She was helpless against those scribbles. She also wanted to learn more, especially since it was the Manchu language. Whether she was going into or out of the palace, she could use it when she encountered servants from the Eight Banners.
The requirement that the primary wife must speak Manchu became a royal requirement. Qingyan, feeling frustrated, rubbed her face against his neck.
"Good girl, I'll teach you." The other wives weren't so lucky; they were all taught by nannies. Little girl learned from him from a young age, and he was able to catch a lot of her cleverness.
She knew that acting cute wouldn't work, so she simply put these troublesome things aside and went back to study obediently.
"Will you return to the palace?" Yin is already of age to be sent to the Imperial Study. Will the Third Prince and others be summoned back to the palace?
From now on, the two of them will not be able to meet easily. Will their childhood friendship change?
"No!" Yin answered her decisively.
Emperor Kangxi will not recall all the princes to the palace in the short term.
From the eldest son to him, they were all assigned to the residence of the primary consort. Kangxi's actions clearly showed that he hoped to improve the relationship between the young couple. Which royal couples actually had a good relationship?
After getting off the carriage, her smile became even brighter. They had already changed into commoners' clothes, although their demeanor clearly didn't match the clothes.
Yin was delighted by her cheerful appearance. The dull camp was something even Yin couldn't adapt to, and Kangxi's feelings for Yin deepened. They were basically just Yin's substitutes.
"Sisi, let go of your unhappiness." Qingyan looked at the market. She had asked the nearby villagers about it. Today was the only market day of the month, and the villagers would all come to join in the fun.
Yin held her hand tightly; he absolutely could not let Qingyan get lost here.
"Don't run around later." Yin noticed someone staring at Qingyan. Every time there was a rural market, there would be people selling beggars.
Emperor Kangxi issued a strict order to punish these people, but they persisted despite repeated prohibitions due to their pursuit of profit.
She didn't take his words to heart, and simply nodded obediently.
Yin looked at the little guy helplessly. The two of them were outstanding in appearance, but apart from servants and guards, they had no adults leading them.
Several people who were stalking money had already been watching them, and she had noticed the followers long ago.
Actually, she wanted to turn the tables on them; with the space at her disposal, she was sure she could find their hideout.
"Be good and don't cause any more trouble." Yin Tai knew Qing Yan's temper well; he could tell what she was thinking the moment her eyes lit up.
"Um..." She gave a wry smile. "Sisi, if we go, won't we be able to save a lot of people?"
Yin's status is noble; if he were to lose it, Emperor Kangxi would surely be furious.
"Those who follow behind will all die." Yin's words completely dispelled Qingyan's idea.
Behind them were more than a dozen lives lost. In Kangxi's eyes, the two of them were lost because these people had neglected their duties and deserved to die.
"Never mind." Qingyan gave up on her idea.
“We can track those people.” Yin believed that the people who followed them were all capable; otherwise, would Fei Yanggu have allowed her to leave so easily?
On the grassland, Fei Yanggu placed one-third of the shadow guards of the Ulanara family by her side, which Kangxi talked about for a long time.
He recalled Kangxi's lighthearted rebuke and felt completely relieved.
"Su Peisheng, have someone follow those people." Yin summoned Su Peisheng to his side and whispered to him that those people must often abduct children. They had a sharp eye, and as soon as Yin and Qingyan showed any signs of vigilance, they gave up completely.
Su Peisheng went directly to handle the matter.
Qingyan didn't take this little incident to heart and continued to buy whatever she liked.
"Four, it's Guandong candy." Qingyan looked at the Guandong candy covered in sesame seeds on the stall, and a happy smile appeared on her little face. She had eaten this candy when she was a child. Later, Jue Luo Shi thought it was a vulgar thing and never bought it for her again.
Yin frowned. There had never been such a thing in the palace, and the Imperial Household Department dared not serve such food. They knew that if the young masters used it badly, several families in the Imperial Household Department would be held responsible.
