When the fourth brother saw the eighth brother's smile, he had a bad feeling and was about to speak, but it was too late. Because the moment he saw the eighth brother kneeling on the ground, he knew it was too late. He could only bury all his worries in his heart and retracted the foot he had stepped forward!

Even Lao Jiu and Lao Ba knew that things were not going well. Although they did not see the expression on their starlings' faces, the aura emanating from their starlings did let them know what would happen next? Lao Jiu and Lao Shi simultaneously looked at Lao Si for help, but only saw Lao Si shaking his head. Lao Jiu was anxious to say something, but before he could move, he felt a pain in his right hand. He did not need to turn his head to know that Lao Shi had grabbed him. No matter how reluctant Lao Jiu was, he could only watch his starlings bang their heads against the wall!

"Father, working for the court is what we, the princes, should do. I shouldn't ask for rewards, but I want to ask you a favor!"

Kangxi narrowed his eyes when he heard what Lao Ba said. With his intelligence connections, he naturally knew what Lao Ba wanted to do. Besides, even if his secret guards didn't find anything, Lao Si had submitted a memorial, so he knew what Lao Ba wanted to say. Although Kangxi was furious, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he looked as if he was in the spring breeze and pretended not to know what was going on.

"Oh, if I understand correctly, you, Old Eight, want to exchange the position of the Prince for a reward!"

When Kangxi said this, it was like a bolt from the blue, exploding in everyone's heart. They all looked like they were crazy. Looking at the Eighth Brother, the Crown Prince and the eldest brother all thought that the Eighth Brother might have gone out and had a brain injury. How could he refuse the title of Prince?

The ninth brother slowly closed his eyes, trying to ease his dizziness. He felt like he was about to pass out. A prince, this is the position of a prince, not a first-rank or second-rank official? Even the tenth brother was puzzled. He didn't understand how it could have such a great influence in just a few months? It could make their brother give up the position of prince!

Compared to everyone else who was in disbelief, Lao Ba was indeed very calm. As soon as she said this, her nervous heart relaxed a lot. In fact, she had been very nervous, but once some words were said, the next words would be easy!

The eighth elder smiled, still looking respectful, and said, "Father Emperor, you did not misunderstand me. This is exactly what I meant!"

Kangxi heard what Lao Ba said, looked at him, and saw the expression on his face. He knew that Lao Ba was serious and was not testing him. This made Kangxi laugh involuntarily. How many years had it been since he had experienced such a thing? You know, when this scene happened, the grass on the protagonist's grave was almost as tall as a person, right?

Kangxi picked up the teacup beside him, half-closed the lid twice, took a sip of the pre-rain Longjing tea, and then put the teacup in front of him. He played with the lid with one hand, looked at Lao Ba with a smile and said, "Oh..., it's really interesting. I didn't know that my position as a prince is so cheap. Tell me, what kind of reward is worthy of my position as a prince?"

Even though Kangxi had a smiling face, people who knew him well knew that he was angry. The crown prince and the eldest brother felt nervous and reduced their sense of presence. They did not want to be the first to stick their heads out, nor did they want to be a punching bag. They had to know that this matter would not benefit them at all. They were just here to go through the motions. Don't miss out on the show and get into trouble. That would be too frustrating!

How could a smart man like Lao Ba not know this? His father was angry, but he also knew that apart from this opportunity, he really couldn't think of any other opportunity. Yunyan's status was too low. If he just wanted to hide Yunyan in his house, he naturally didn't need to do this, but he wanted Yunyan to stand beside him openly, not a canary hidden in his house!

The Eighth Elder ignored everyone's gazes, including the two worried eyes behind him, and continued with a smile, saying, "Your Majesty's title of Prince is naturally extremely precious, but I want something more. Although I also want the title of Prince, I have thought that if I could get it the first time, I can also get it the second time. But I only have this one chance for what I want the most, so please forgive me, Your Majesty, for my rudeness!"

"Since you already know that it was your own rudeness, why do you still bring it up? And how do you know that I will agree to your request?"

The Eighth Elder: "I just want the Emperor to ask for an imperial decree to grant me marriage. It's not something that would be difficult for the Emperor, Father."

At first, the crown prince and the eldest brother were worried that the eighth brother would make unreasonable demands. But when the eighth brother made this request, the eldest brother and the crown prince were speechless. It was only ten marriages. Did he need to exchange the granted marriage for the position of the prince? Could he be a fool? The crown prince and the eldest brother could never have imagined that the eighth brother would do more crazy things in the future! Of course, this is all later, so let's not talk about it now!

Kangxi was so angry. She thought that after his reminder, Old Eight would not make such an unreasonable request. Unexpectedly, he finally opened his mouth. Kangxi held the tea lid tightly in his hand, and Liang Jiugong, who was standing by, saw it. His hand trembled involuntarily and he was extremely worried!

Kangxi thought about what the fourth son wrote in the memorial, and what his secret guards had found out, and his heart softened. After all, he was his own son? He had just returned from the brink of death, and he didn't want to disappoint him. He thought that she was just an orphan, and the eighth son would be a prince at most in the future. He could marry her if he wanted. It was just a concubine. With the grace of saving his life, he could afford the concubine position, but he really couldn't think about the position of the legitimate wife!

After Kangxi figured it out, he immediately returned to his previous amiable demeanor, looking like a completely loving father!

"Haha..., Eighth Brother, you have grown up. In the blink of an eye, it is time for you to get married! Eighth Brother, you have already asked, and I, as the emperor, cannot bear to refuse you! I understand what you want, um..., let me issue an imperial decree to marry you and Guo Luoluo Minghui. I know that you two have been childhood sweethearts and are in love with each other. How can I, as the emperor, bear to refuse?"
