Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother

"Father, this kaleidoscope is not very exquisite. I will think about it again later and make a few more exquisite ones for you and your majesty."

Kangxi's mouth curled up slightly. His son's filial piety was commendable, but he still had to say a few words, "Don't worry too much. If you have the time, read more books, so that I and Concubine Yi don't have to worry about you anymore."

Why did the emperor's words sound so unpleasant? Yinzhen pursed his lips imperceptibly and said, "Your son obeys your order."

"You have done very well these past few days. You have fulfilled your duty as an elder and have not caused any trouble. It is obvious that you have made progress." Kangxi was well aware of the principle of giving a slap in the face and then giving a sweet reward, so he did not continue to teach him a lesson.

Yinzhen's expression instantly relaxed, and he smiled a little when he replied: "I love Western scientific knowledge. Coincidentally, my nephew Honghui is also very interested in it. As an uncle, it is natural for me to take care of my nephew. Fourth brother is fourth brother, and nephew Honghui is nephew Honghui. I will not vent my anger on my nephew because of a little grudge."

"Alright, stop being so weird! How do you brothers get along with each other? I have never interfered in any way. You just need to act like brothers and be respectful to me and set a good example for the people of the world. You must remember that you are brothers connected by blood. You can have some small disagreements, but you must never become enemies!"

Yinzhen always knew the emperor's bottom line, and when he heard this, he could only nod in agreement.

Kangxi just mentioned it briefly and passed it over lightly. Now only the Crown Prince and the eldest prince were fighting fiercely, but it had not escalated to the point of life and death. The princes all adhered to the bottom line and he, the His Majesty, did not need to worry too much.

He had never imagined how tragic the battle for the throne among the nine princes would be, so tragic that it was recorded in history books as cruel and brutal, with almost all the adult princes being wiped out.

Of course, he doesn't know the future at the moment. He only knows that the crown prince is his biological son, as are the other princes. If his other sons become motivated and sensible, he, as the emperor, will be even more pleased.

"Okay, you go down first! Also, leave the kaleidoscope in your hand for me to enjoy."

Yinzhen retracted his outstretched right hand and laughed awkwardly: "Hehe... Father Emperor, your son, your son just didn't realize it for a moment? You can take this kaleidoscope, and your son will make two more when he goes back."

The smile on his face gradually turned into a flattering one, and he stammered, "I want to ask your Majesty for a small favor. This kaleidoscope business..."

Kangxi frowned. The ninth prince still hadn't changed his bad habits and was competing with the people for profits! Among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants were the last. How could a prince degenerate into doing the business of a merchant?

"You really are... I've told you so many times, stay in the mansion and study! Old Nine, do you like money so much? Concubine Yi and I have never shorted you of a penny!"

"What I like is not the silver, but the process of making silver!" Yinzhen said confidently.

Having scolded and scolded him, Kangxi was too lazy to lecture him any further. Seeing that Lao Jiu had made some progress in the past few days, he reluctantly agreed.

"You invented the kaleidoscope, so I will obey you this time. However, you cannot compete with the people for profits, and you cannot act recklessly because of your status as a prince. If I hear that you have done anything wrong, you must close your business and return home immediately. I will not indulge you!"

"Yes, I will follow your orders."

It was the first time that the Emperor agreed to his request so easily. In the past, he had to persuade the Emperor, his mother, his fifth brother, and his eighth brother all in one go, and eight out of ten times he was able to fulfill his wish.

Yinzhen was very excited.

……

Let’s not talk about the conversation between the father and son in the royal family, and their little dispute about business, let’s just talk about another father and son who have a good relationship.

During the ten days or so that he accompanied the emperor on the tour, Yinzhen had been in a bad mood. His eldest son had been interacting a lot with his ninth brother, whom he had always disliked. He was really afraid that his eldest son would be led astray by his unreliable ninth brother.

Of course, this matter cannot be blamed on the eldest son. After all, it was the ninth brother who came to see the eldest son personally these days, and the eldest son, as a junior, could not refuse.

Yinzhen wanted to speak frankly in front of his eldest son, but he was afraid that it would affect his reputation in his eldest son's heart, so he could only watch his ninth brother coming in and out of his territory as if he was alone, but he did not dare to show it.

When his temper flared up, he could only suppress it by twisting his Buddhist beads. It was early spring in February, and the weather was still cold. He was so anxious that he got boils at the corners of his mouth.

Fortunately, he will return to Beijing in a few days! He knows that his ninth brother will never visit a fourth prince, so it will be easy to separate his eldest son and ninth brother!

In this extremely torturous back and forth pulling, Qingming Festival came in a flash.

His Majesty has issued an order to return to the palace tomorrow, and the ten-day tour is gradually coming to an end.

I don’t know what other people think, but Honghui has been eager to return home. No matter how beautiful the scenery on both sides of the canal is, it cannot compare to his longing for his family.

Finally I'm back!

The emperor returned in the same manner as when he came, riding in a horse-drawn carriage.

There were people coming and going on the imperial boat, and servants and maids were carrying luggage to and from the carriage, making quite a noise.

After another two days of carriage ride, the emperor finally returned to Changchun Garden on the 25th.

I heard that the Emperor Mafa would stay in Changchun Garden for a few days. Well, Honghui couldn't help complaining again. The Emperor Mafa's love for Changchun Garden

It’s really clear at a glance!

"What do you feel about accompanying the emperor on this tour?" On the way back, Yinzhen asked for the sake of conversation.

Honghui sighed with lingering fear: "Father, it turns out that traveling is so difficult!"

"Oh?" Yinzhen turned around in surprise, "Is that all you think?"

"Of course not. The Emperor has always attached great importance to the river. This time he went on a tour to inspect the river bank. The Emperor's decades of unremitting efforts have brought about today's calm and unobstructed waters. My son is impressed by the Emperor's achievements."

Honghui's emotions gradually became agitated, but as soon as he thought of the bumpy ride for several consecutive days, his mood immediately calmed down.

"Travel is not easy, so you should think carefully in the future!"

Seeing his eldest son's refusal, Yinzhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You are still young, so you are not used to riding in a carriage. When you are a few years older, you will get used to it soon! Nowadays, whether it is the official road or other small roads, they are all dirt roads. Even if you go to the ends of the earth, you will have to endure the hardship of the bumpy ride."

Honghui shook his head unwillingly: "Son, you must find a good way to repair the road later. Replace those bumpy dirt roads. If it is really impossible to repair the road, then find a way to make the carriage more stable, so as not to suffer in vain!"
