Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

Chapter 14 Sending the Rubik's Cube

After the birthday party, news came from the Ulanala Mansion that the third young master Fucun had successfully developed glass.

In the main courtyard, Yi Ya looked at the large piece of glass in front of her. It was clean, bright and flawless, which made people happy. Then she looked at the glass bowls and teacups, glass decorations and jewelry beside her. These decorations were actually discarded by Fucun during the process of developing glass. He didn't want to waste them, so he cut, polished and colored them carefully again, and finally formed these beautiful decorations. At the same time, it also gave Fucun some inspiration. He could not only make glass windows, but also make some other glass products.

"Fujin, this glass is so beautiful!" said Nanny Wang in amazement.

"That's not the case. If it weren't for Madam Fu Jin, I would probably never see such a beautiful thing in my life." Nanny Su on the side also echoed.

"Don't talk about you guys. If it weren't for my third brother, how would I have seen him?" Yi Ya said lightly.

"Third brother said that this large piece of glass is used to make windows there. Call Yuanbao in later and take a few people to put it on and have a look." Yi Ya ordered.

"Yes!" The two younger ones, Baizhi and Fuliu, could no longer hold back. Upon hearing Yiya's words, they ran out to call Yuanbao for help.

Then, with the help of Nanny Wang, Bai Shu and others, Yuan Bao carefully installed the huge glass window, and the sunlight shone through the transparent glass and filled the entire room. Yi Ya stood in front of the window, feeling the warm sunshine and fresh air, and felt very comfortable.

"Fujin, this glass is so bright! The room is so bright without turning on the lights." Nanny Su said, looking at the glass window in front of her.

"Mammy is right. With this glass window, we don't need to turn on the lights in the house. We can save a lot of money in a month."

……

In the evening, Yinzhen finished his work and thought about the Rubik's Cube that his brothers wanted at the last birthday party. He also thought about how he hadn't seen Yiya for a few days. Then he took Su Peisheng to the main courtyard.

Yinzhen walked into the main courtyard and found that the room seemed brighter today than before. He then observed the changes in the room, and soon a surprised expression appeared on his face. He walked to the window and felt the brightness and transparency brought by the glass.

"This is the glass made by your third brother." Yinzhen asked.

"Yes, my third brother said that pressing glass against the window can not only save candlelight, but also make the room brighter." Yi Ya explained to Yinzhen.

After hearing this, Yinzhen's eyes flashed with admiration.

He said to Yi Ya: "In this case, we can start running the glass shop well."

"Yes! When the time comes, I hope you can help me."

"Of course."

Then he remembered why he came here, and said to Yi Ya, "At the last banquet, the magic cube you gave to Thirteen was seen by Tenth and Fourteenth, and they wanted one too."

"It's not that difficult, it's just a little thing, I'll ask my third brother to make a few more, anyway, this is what he made to entertain me."

"There is another one here, I'll give it to you. It's impossible that other brothers have it but I don't!" Yi Ya said with a smile.

"Okay, leave this with me." Actually, Yinzhen was a little envious, but was too embarrassed to say it. Now that Yi Ya gave it to him first, it was exactly what he wanted.

Then, the two of them washed up and rested.

……

A few days later, Fucun brought the magic cube and Yiya took it to the front yard. At this time, Yinzhen in the front yard was preparing to go to the Ministry of Revenue, because some time ago, the emperor assigned the married princes to various departments for training, and now Yinzhen was in the Ministry of Revenue.

After Yinzhen finished his work at the Ministry of Revenue, he went to the Shangshufang with the carefully selected magic cube. Among the many sons of Emperor Kangxi, except for Yinzhen, Yinsi, Yinlu, and Yinzhen who were already married, the rest of the brothers continued their studies in the Shangshufang. When Yinzhen arrived at the Shangshufang, it was just the end of the get out of class.

"Fourth brother, how are you?" Everyone greeted Yinzhen when they saw him coming.

"How was your day?" Yinzhen asked his brothers.

"Very good, fourth brother, why are you here? Is the Rubik's Cube ready?" The lively tenth brother Yinzhen saw Su Peisheng holding a box in his hand as soon as Yinzhen came in, so he asked quickly.

"You have sharp eyes." He then distributed the Rubik's Cube in his hand to his younger brothers.

"Hehehe." Yinzhen laughed, and then quickly took the Rubik's Cube from Yinzhen's hand.

"Fourth brother, fourth brother, I'm still here, I'm still here." Yinzhen, who was standing aside, was afraid that Yinzhen would forget about him, so he spoke quickly.

Then all the brothers got the Rubik's Cube and were all excited and happy. They used the break time to fiddle with the Rubik's Cube and try to solve the three-dimensional puzzle composed of multiple small cubes.

Yinzhen felt satisfied as he watched his younger brothers having fun.

……

That day, Kangxi came to Yonghe Palace and heard it before he entered the door.

"Mother, mother. My son is so strong. Even Brother Ten lost to him. I will compete with them again next time."

"It's just a Rubik's Cube. I'm so happy that I won."

"Mother, you don't know, this Rubik's Cube is very difficult. Fifth brother has been trying to solve it for a long time but couldn't. But eighth brother solved it faster. But eighth brother never competes with us. Next time I must compete with eighth brother." Yinzhen said while fiddling with the Rubik's Cube in his hand.

Seeing this, Emperor Kangxi smiled gently, walked up to Yinzhen, patted him on the shoulder, and praised his intelligence.

He said to Yinzhen: "It is good that you can beat your brother in the Shangshufang competition. However, you must remember that true wisdom lies not only in speed but also in the depth and breadth of thinking. You must not be proud and complacent."

"Your Majesty is auspicious!"

"Good luck to your Majesty!" Defei and Yinzhen were surprised and hurriedly paid their respects to Kangxi.

"Get up." Then, Kangxi turned to Concubine De, his eyes showing pride in his son. He said, "Yinzhen is fine, you have worked hard." After hearing this, Concubine De smiled with relief.

"It's not hard. This is what I should do." Defei replied.

In the past few days, Kangxi also heard the master in the Shangshufang say that because of the Rubik's Cube that Yinzhen gave to the princes, the princes who used to run around after class now like to gather together to compete to see who can restore the Rubik's Cube first. Kangxi had only heard about it before, but had never seen it with his own eyes. Now that he saw it at Concubine De's place, he couldn't help but become curious.

Then he said to Yinzhen: "Bring your Rubik's Cube here and show it to me."

"Your Majesty, can you please not look at it? I only have one son, and if it breaks, it will be gone." Yinzhen was afraid that Kangxi would fix his Rubik's Cube, so he refused cautiously.

"You treasure this thing so much." Seeing his son like this, Kangxi couldn't help but want to tease him.

When Concubine De saw that Kangxi was not angry and understood what he was thinking, she remained silent.

"Son... I only have this one son. Last time, my ninth brother's broke, and it took a long time to fix it. If it breaks, my son won't be able to play with it." Yinzhen explained.

Then he thought for a moment and said, "Father Emperor, why don't you ask Fourth Brother for it? He has plenty."

"Hahaha." Seeing Yinzhen so cute, Kangxi laughed.

Then he smiled at De Fei and said, "De Fei, you see this child is quite clever. Since he said there is only one, I will not force him. However, I would like to know what is the charm of this magic cube that can fascinate us brothers so much?"

Concubine De nodded slightly to show her understanding. She said to Kangxi: "Your Majesty, this Rubik's Cube is indeed an interesting toy. It tests people's spatial imagination and logical thinking ability. After Yinzhen brought it to us, the children all liked it very much. They competed with each other, which not only enhanced the relationship between brothers, but also exercised their minds."

After hearing this, Emperor Kangxi nodded his head in approval. He said, "Very good, the fourth child is a good one. The children are united and help each other, and learn from each other. This kind of atmosphere is also conducive to their growth."

After that, Kangxi turned to Yinzhen and said earnestly: "Yinzhen, although you rejected me, I don't blame you. You must remember that as a prince, we must not only learn to respect others, but also learn to respect ourselves. You have the right to decide whether to give your things, but at the same time, you must also learn to bear the corresponding responsibilities and consequences."

After hearing this, Yinzhen lowered his head and silently accepted Kangxi's teachings. He knew that his answer was indeed a bit rude, but he also understood a truth: as princes, they should not only have courage and wisdom, but also a sense of responsibility and a spirit of responsibility.
