Time flies, and it is already the end of the year.

It was snowing heavily and the entire Forbidden City was covered in white.

Wearing a fur cloak, Yinreng hurried through the palace.

"Has the Fourth Prince returned to the palace?"

He walked towards Yuqing Palace and asked He Zhuer who was standing beside him.

He Zhuer quickly responded, "Your Highness, the Fourth Master has already entered the palace, and will probably be here soon."

Hearing this, Yinreng nodded slightly, said no more words, but quickened his pace.

When he reached Yuqing Palace, he saw Yinzhen and Yinzhi coming together from a distance. He immediately smiled and shouted, "Fourth brother."

Yinzhen turned around and saw his second brother, the crown prince, walking towards him quickly. He quickly stepped back and said, "Second brother, slow down."

The snowy road was slippery, and he was worried that his second brother would walk too fast and fall.

Yinzhi shook his head, crossed his arms, and pouted, "This second brother only sees you again."

It was obvious that he was standing with the fourth brother, but the second brother was only concerned with calling the fourth brother.

This kind of differential treatment is really - I'm used to it.

Yinzhen smiled at him and was about to speak when Yinreng arrived.

With a big hand, he embraced him and then turned in a direction, pushing him towards Yuqing Palace, "Come on, let's go in."

Yinreng took Yinzhen's arm and walked two steps before he noticed a little resentment coming from the next room. He looked up, blinked, and continued, "Third brother, come quickly too, or you'll catch a cold."

The snow is very heavy. If you get sick, you will feel uncomfortable for several days.

Finally being noticed, Yinzhi glared at him unhappily, snorted coldly, and walked past him into the house without saying a word.

Yinreng and Yinzhen looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and followed.

"Is the Ministry of Personnel very busy today?"

As soon as he entered the house, Yinreng asked softly while helping Yinzhen take off his cloak.

A month ago, his fourth brother left the Ministry of Revenue and joined the Ministry of Personnel to work.

The Ministry of Personnel, the head of the Six Ministries, is not an easy place to stay.

Yinzhen let him do what he wanted and said, "Not really busy, just dealing with some trivial matters."

The Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the appointment and removal, examination, promotion, demotion, honors and transfer of officials. Generally, there won't be too many changes, so it's really not that busy.

Unlike the Ministry of Revenue, which has been extremely busy in recent years due to the various actions of his Khan Ama.

After Yinzhi took off his cloak by himself, he sat down to drink some hot tea.

He looked at Yinzhen who was helping Yinreng undress, pulled the corners of his mouth uselessly, and said with a stiff smile: "Why don't you ask me, second brother?"

Hearing this, Yinreng looked at him with disdain, "What do you have to ask?"

"You've almost made a mess of your Qing newspaper."

Unlike Yinzhen's transfer, Yinzhi has always been in charge of the Daqing Daily, and only handles some affairs of the Hanlin Academy on the side.

Therefore, over the course of this year, Yinzhi had already promoted the development of the Da Qing Newspaper.

He didn't open his newspaper all over the Qing Dynasty, but in any place that wasn't particularly remote, there was a small shop he opened that specialized in selling Qing newspapers.

The charge is not expensive, only one cent per serving.

But if the entire Qing Dynasty is sold like this, the profit will be huge.

Many ministers were jealous and had been courting Yinzhi recently, but all of them who wanted to get a piece of the pie were completely cheated by him.

"Who told them to be idle and have nothing to do? Why would I care what they say if they don't give me some gold?"

Yinzhi spoke nonchalantly, without mentioning how much gold there was.

"But then again, I really didn't expect that the people of our Qing Dynasty don't like to read serious newspapers, but they enjoy reading messy entertainment newspapers."

Yinzhi complained.

Thanks to the intentional or unintentional suggestions from his father Khan and his thirteenth brother, he divided the Qing Daily into two branches: business and entertainment.

The Zhengshi Newspaper is focused on sharing the various measures and policies of the imperial court as well as the recent subtle changes in the Qing Dynasty.

The entertainment newspapers focus on the word "entertainment". They either contain gossip, or some written short stories and sketches. In short, there are few serious ones.

It just so happens that this entertainment newspaper sells much better than serious newspapers.

Take the latest issue of the newspaper for example, the revenue of entertainment newspaper has doubled, which means that more than twice as many people are willing to buy entertainment newspaper.

This shocked Yinzhi, and he printed more entertainment newspapers overnight.

Who wouldn’t want to make money?

"Hehe... I understand. After all, gossip is human nature." Yinzhen couldn't help laughing. If he didn't know that entertainment newspapers would be more popular than serious newspapers, Khan Ama wouldn't have deliberately encouraged his third brother to start a branch newspaper.

Isn't it just that no one can escape the nature of loving gossip?

"Yeah, that makes sense. Everyone likes to watch the fun." Yinzhi nodded in agreement and continued, "Although those noble scholars have repeatedly criticized the Entertainment Newspaper after it was launched, it must be said that after the Entertainment Newspaper was launched, more people are willing to learn to read and write."

This was of great help to his literacy campaign.

The extra profits also made it easier for him to open academies all over the world.

"That's good."

Yinreng poured himself a cup of tea, followed the rising mist, looked at the white snow outside the house, and said, "Another year is about to pass. I'm afraid next year will be even busier."

He had just returned from the Qianqing Palace, but saw a table full of books laid out by his Khan Ama. These books basically listed the policy plans and measures to be implemented next. The table was filled with densely packed papers, which made him feel nervous.

"Emm... Actually, the eighth, ninth, tenth and thirteenth brothers can really start working."

When Yinzhi heard his second brother say that he would be busier next year, he couldn't help but feel dizzy and quickly mentioned his younger brothers who were still studying in the study.

Why are they all reborn, but only the older ones have to work so hard? !

"Although there are the fifth and seventh brothers in the middle, it doesn't matter. They can also be used as laborers."

Anyway, I am not making much progress in studying in the study, so I might as well go straight to the court to do some work and learn to do some practical work.

Yinzhi was determined to pull all his younger brothers out to work as laborers. Although Yinreng and Yinzhen were not so crazy, they quite agreed with him.

"Forget about my ninth brother, but my fifth, seventh and eighth brothers are fine," Yinzhen said.

The ninth brother was already studying and earning money at the same time, and the tenth and thirteenth brothers were indeed young, but the fifth, seventh and eighth brothers were old enough to start working.

"If that's the case, then I will go and make a suggestion to Khan Ama tomorrow, asking him to bring the three of my fifth brother to the court after the New Year to help Khan Ama share his worries."
