Although the Crown Prince was also invited to accompany him during this tour to Mount Wutai, Emperor Kangxi always asked the Fourth Prince and the Thirteenth Prince to accompany him.

The prince showed up only once when he set out and when he came out to have a vegetarian meal when he arrived at Mount Wutai. Normally, not even his shadow was seen.

He keenly sensed the unusual information and secretly reminded Thirteen that this was not the right time to bring this up.

Finally, in a nervous atmosphere, the trip to Mount Wutai is coming to an end.

When returning to Beijing, the prince was still nowhere to be seen, so Emperor Kangxi preferred to ask the Fourth Master to accompany him.

When they stopped in the suburbs, he asked, "Old Four, your hot spring resort is nearby, right?"

He even jokingly asked, "Are you still growing vegetables now?"

"My dear father, the farm is not far from here," the Fourth Master replied. "Now that the weather is warmer, we should start raising the sweet potato seedlings."

In March, you can grow vegetables anywhere outside, so there is no need to grow them specifically in the hot spring village.

Emperor Kangxi had originally thought of asking about this, but now, hearing that the sweet potato seedlings had begun to grow, he rubbed his brow and sighed, "Time flies."

"That's right, Your Majesty, look, Thirteenth Prince has grown up~" The Fourth Master pointed at Thirteenth Prince riding a horse in front and said with an idea.

"It's the old Emperor~" Emperor Kangxi looked at Thirteen's figure in front of him, feeling a little sad about the passing of time.

The Fourth Master quickly said, "Father, you look only in your thirties, young and strong."

"Seven or eight of your younger brothers, including Thirteen, haven't married or had children yet. Aren't you in the prime of your life?"

Emperor Kangxi did not expect that his usually quiet fourth son could say such words to amuse him, and he immediately burst into laughter.

It is said that a smile makes you look ten years younger. After laughing, you will indeed feel much more relaxed.

"I'm waiting for Eighteen to give me a grandson!" Emperor Kangxi narrowed his eyes and thought of this.

When I grow up to be eighteen and have a child, then...

The Fourth Master didn't understand why Eighteen was mentioned again, but he also knew that the topic couldn't be forced to turn to Thirteen, so it had to stop there.

But he didn't say this in vain.

After returning to the palace in the evening, Emperor Kangxi remembered that the Fourth Master said that no one under the Thirteenth Prince had married yet.

He called Liang Jiugong over and asked, "Which girl did Old Thirteen choose?"

Liang Jiugong nearly broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. He finally managed to calm himself down, his voice trembling a little: "It's... not decided yet."

Thirteen years later, I'm already sixteen, and still not engaged?!

"I was so busy that I forgot. Did you bully him too?!" Emperor Kangxi's face looked extremely ugly.

Liang Jiugong knelt down with a plop, and all the other servants in the bedroom knelt down as well, no matter what they were busy with.

Liang Jiugong didn't make any excuses and kowtowed to admit his fault: "It was all my negligence. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Is he wrong?

Of course. As the chief eunuch, he had to remind the emperor if there was anything he didn't expect.

But he did not remind her, because as an emperor he could forget about it, but as a father he could not forget about his son's marriage.

Now His Majesty remembered that he had only been beaten.

If he reminds His Majesty to remember it, then it will really be the end.

Emperor Kangxi snorted coldly: "Have someone send the list of names from Chuxiu Palace here, and then go down to receive the punishment."

There is also a group of beautiful girls living in Chuxiu Palace, who are prepared to be taken into the harem or be assigned to princes.

Fortunately, there is this group of beautiful girls, otherwise it would not be possible to cover it up.

Liang Jiugong limped over to deliver the imperial edict to Shisan, congratulating him on his wedding at the end of the year.

Thirteen knelt on the ground to receive the order and almost cried out loud.

But in the end he held back and accepted the order with a smile.

Guaerjia and Shijia actually cried.

"Master, we finally made it through," Guaerjia held his hand, extremely excited.

She was now extremely grateful to this Zhao Jia, whom she had never met before, otherwise life would have been even more difficult for the three of them.

Thirteen wiped her tears and said, "Yes, it's all over."

He thought of his fourth brother and knew that his fourth brother must have contributed to this.

I didn’t expect that Fourth Brother is such a cold-faced but warm-hearted person.

After his mother passed away, he knew he had no one to rely on.

But he didn't expect to achieve anything great, he just wanted to follow behind one of his brothers and receive some protection.

Of course, the prince and the eldest brother looked down on him. The third brother, with whom he used to have contact, no longer had any contact because of the haircut incident.

The eight-bird accepted everyone who came, but he was more protective of the ninth and tenth brothers.

The fifth and seventh brothers couldn't even lift it themselves, let alone help him.

Now it seems that only Fourth Brother is truly good to him.

Thirteen's heart was burning with excitement: He would definitely stick with Fourth Brother from now on!

The Fourth Master didn't even know it, he just said one sentence and gained a little fan.

He was listening to Lin Mingyan talking about the Niuhulu family at this time, and he pondered, "Brother Heng wants to take the imperial examination?"

"Yes, he has this ambitious idea, and we don't want to be a parent who spoils his fun," Lin Mingyan said softly as she helped him comb his hair. "Grandpa, please see if there's anyone with good academics who could teach him."

She didn't know any great scholars, but as a prince, the Fourth Master must have a teacher, so maybe he could know a few.

The Fourth Master admired Mingheng very much and knew that he was not a weird person.

In his eyes, ambition is equivalent to self-motivation.

Since he has the ambition to become a high-ranking official, as his brother-in-law, I will definitely support him with all my strength.

"I do know a few people with good knowledge, but it depends on whether they are willing to teach Heng'er," the Fourth Master thought of several people quickly.

Of course Lin Mingyan knew that both parties had to be willing for this, otherwise people wouldn’t teach her well.

She didn't know many people outside, so she didn't ask about the specific situation.

Anyway, the Fourth Master will have to go on duty when he comes back. When inviting people to dinner, he can test the waters a little and eventually find out whether they are happy or not.

The Fourth Master was extremely efficient. He came back within two days and said that the matter had been done.

"I've already informed Hengge'er. Just call him Ah Maha and bring him over to become my disciple tomorrow."

The Fourth Master and Lin Mingyan were soaking their feet together, using the foot bath bag that she had asked Rendong to develop.

Soak your feet before going to bed, they will keep you warm all night long and help you sleep soundly.

The Fourth Master quite likes it and usually won’t get up until his feet turn red.

Lin Mingyan rubbed his feet with her little feet and asked exaggeratedly: "Wow, who did you find in the end? Is your knowledge good?"

"Although Zhang Tingyu, a Hanlin Academy scholar, did not rank high in the imperial examinations, the Emperor himself praised his knowledge and will not bury Heng'er."

"What? Zhang Tingyu?!" Lin Mingyan missed a step and a huge splash of water occurred.

No, no?

This is such a bad fate!

The Fourth Master was afraid she would fall into the foot bath, so he quickly grabbed her and asked in confusion, "What happened to Zhang Tingyu? Do you know him?"

"I don't know him, but..."
