A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

Chapter 15 Your Jade is Here (5)

Sure enough, as soon as he saw his fourth brother, Yinzhen instantly became in a bad mood. After reluctantly calling him fourth brother, he stopped talking and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

Lin Pingan seemed to be completely unaware of the embarrassment and spoke as if it was his duty: "Father, fish balls!"

When the emperor ate with the two of them, he did not need to be served, so that he could enjoy the ordinary father-son relationship. Of course, he would personally serve the food that the two children could not eat.

Yinzhen disliked this unruly child at first sight, but when he saw Daiyu standing beside him, he immediately liked her. How could there be such a lovely child?

"I remember your name is Daiyu. If there's anything you want to eat but can't reach, let your fourth brother get it for you." The man in his twenties spoke in a hoarse voice, and Yinzhen next to him rolled his eyes.

"Thank you, fourth brother. Yu'er wants to eat shrimps." Daiyu said and pushed out her small bowl, indicating that she wanted shrimps.

Yinzhen picked up a shrimp for Lin Daiyu with a gentle look on his face. If the shrimps in the imperial kitchen had not been processed, Yinzhen had no doubt that his fourth brother would peel the shrimp himself. That artificial expression successfully shocked the emperor and Yinzhen. Yinzhen felt that his food no longer tasted good.

"Fourth brother~ I want to eat shrimp too~"

"If you want to eat, pick it up yourself." Yinzhen ruthlessly rejected his stupid brother.

Yinzhen took back his bowl in disappointment, but a shrimp still fell into his bowl accurately. Yinzhen felt a little complicated. He didn't expect that his fourth brother was not without human touch. If this was the case, it would be better...

Seeing Yinzhen like this, the emperor changed his mind. In the past, he thought that his son was a cold processing machine, but he didn't expect that he actually had some human touch. This was a good thing, because a human touch would not kill his own brothers.

Daiyu had no idea that just because of her small request, the emperor and Yinzhen had changed their views on Yinzhen. She obediently finished the food in her small bowl, drank some porridge with the help of her fourth brother, and rubbed her bulging belly, ready to leave.

Yinzhen looked at Daiyu disapprovingly: "Yu'er is still young. It would be bad for your health if you go back to rest after eating so much. It's better for you to go out for a walk."

Daiyu felt Yinzhen's kindness and nodded: "Ping An should also go out for a walk."

"Yes, Ping'an too, Yu'er is such a good sister," Yinzhen praised in a soft voice.

Yinzhen refused to give in and said, "Brother Fourteen will go with you too."

The emperor still had government affairs to deal with, so he simply handed the two children to his two sons, and asked them to take good care of them and come back early.

The two brothers tacitly took their two children to Yonghe Palace, thinking that they must let Defei raise Daiyu. On the one hand, it was for Daiyu's future, and on the other hand it was convenient for the two to see their sister Daiyu.

Lin Ping'an was like a free gift, but he didn't care. After all, Yinzhen was the future emperor and had a strong dragon energy. There would be only benefits and no harm in following him.

As soon as they left, the emperor summoned the Taoist priest in the palace, who happened to be the one who was fed the puppet pill by Lin Ping'an.

The old Taoist priest talked a lot, roughly meaning that Lin Ping'an and Lin Daiyu were destined to be immortals, and if they practiced well in the future, they would definitely be able to ascend to heaven.

"In your opinion, do I have a chance to become an immortal?" the emperor asked curiously.

"Your Majesty is already a human emperor, so naturally it is difficult for him to become an immortal. If a human emperor could also become an immortal, wouldn't that be a mess?" The old Taoist continued to deceive Lin Ping'an according to his meaning: "Since ancient times, there has been no example of an emperor practicing. The throne is an honor, but also a shackle. The emperor should understand this."

The emperor was skeptical, so the old Taoist performed a miracle and successfully made the emperor trust him completely. Lin Ping'an, who secretly used magic to help, kept his merits and fame hidden.

Under the persuasion of the old Taoist priest, the emperor began to consider abdicating and practicing Buddhism. After all, compared with the unknown death and the long life, the former is more tempting.

When Lin Ping'an and Lin Daiyu arrived at Yonghe Palace, Concubine De also liked them very much. She replaced them with her own deceased Sixth Prince and Seventh Princess, and she felt extremely sad for them.

With such love, and seeing that Yinzhen was so good to Daiyu and Ping'an, Defei also showed some rare motherly kindness, which made Yinzhen flattered. The mother and son, who had always been at odds with each other, became closer than ever before.

Yinzhen didn't pay attention to the quarrel between his brother and mother. He was thinking about how he could have a well-behaved and lovely daughter like Daiyu with his wife. He was so envious of the emperor.

Seeing that Daiyu was a little sleepy, Yinzhen took Ping'an and Daiyu to a side hall to rest, while Defei left with her youngest son to talk.

"Mother, what do you want to say? I want to be with Yu'er, but I can't let Fourth Brother be alone."

"Mother asks you, your visit to the Emperor today is not just for these two children, right?"

"Mother is wise," Yinzhen smiled at Concubine De in a flattering way, because the next words were all meant to anger Concubine De: "My dear father no longer likes my dear brother, so I thought, why not just take him down, and I can get a lot of benefits, right?"

"Then have you ever thought that if you guess the emperor's intentions wrongly, you will be the one who is disliked." Defei only felt that her hands were itching.

Seeing that his mother was really angry, Yinzhen quickly began to coax her until she was happy, then he hurried back, fearing that she would remember and continue to scold him.

Defei looked at her anxious son and felt a little amused. The fourteenth son was not that kind of person. Everyone could see clearly what he was thinking. Now his relationship with the fourth son had eased. If possible, the fourth son would definitely protect his younger brother.

For the sake of her younger son, Concubine De began to plan to win over her older son. She did not ask the older son to support the younger son, but only hoped that after the older son succeeded, he would be able to look after the younger son.

Yinzhen watched the two of them sleep, and after making sure they were sound asleep, he went to see Concubine De: "Mother"

"Please sit down. Mother hasn't seen you for a long time." Concubine De began to show goodwill to her eldest son.

"I am an unfilial son who fails to visit my mother every day."

"Mother knows you are busy, it's okay, but the weather is getting hotter, and you have always suffered from summer heat, so you should be more careful these days."

Yinzhen was somewhat touched. He didn't expect that his mother remembered his bitter summer. As the mother and son talked, many barriers between them were resolved. Yinzhen finally asked a question that had been in his mind for many years.

"Why does mother never like her sons and only like Fourteenth Brother? Obviously, we are all her sons."

"You were brought to the side of Empress Xiaoyiren as soon as you were born. At that time, she was a noble concubine, and I was just a concubine, a position I obtained by selling my son. I dared not, and did not want to, see you." Concubine De did not feel aggrieved. She always felt that this was a very cost-effective thing. But when she talked about it, she couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

"You are my first child, how could I dislike you? But it is precisely because I like you that I later hate you because of what you said, your mother is a concubine."
