Inside Yuqing Palace, Chenghu's gaze fell on the two small figures following closely behind him, and he couldn't help but frown slightly. "Aren't you two supposed to be studying in the Shangshufang today? Why are you so persistent in following me?"

Yinzhen said earnestly, "Brother, I have asked Father for permission to excuse me from attending the Shangshufang class today. I'll let you teach me."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Hu's face darkened and he sternly said, "Nonsense! This is your duty, how can you easily shirk it? Hurry and head to the Shangshufang, there must be no mistakes!"

Yinzhen looked aggrieved. He carefully grabbed the corner of Chenghu's clothes and shook it gently, with a hint of pleading in his voice: "Brother, please teach me."

Cheng Hu sighed softly, his tone revealing helplessness and compromise, "Forget it, forget it, this is just this time, I will never do it again."

Yinreng's eyes flickered, and he spoke in a slightly coquettish tone, "Brother, you can't be partial to Xiaowu. Baocheng is your dearest and most precious one."

Cheng Hu nodded slightly, his tone gentle but undeniably firm. "Alright, I will teach you everything I know, impartially. But you must remember, this is just an exception. If something like this happens again, I will not let you off lightly. Tomorrow morning, you two will go to the Shangshufang to study, and you must remember what I taught you today. If you fail the assessment this month, I will find ways to make you understand the true meaning of regret."

Upon hearing Chenghu's agreement, Yinzhen's tears immediately disappeared, and he beamed with joy. He said with gratitude, "Thank you so much, big brother, for your generous teaching! I will study hard and live up to your expectations."

Yinreng also spread his arms and smiled, his tone full of confidence: "Since this is a skill taught by my eldest brother himself, how can it not be extremely exquisite? The assessment at the end of the month will naturally be no problem."

In the following hours, Chenghu carefully taught Yinzhen how to read and write, and Yinzhen also studied with great enthusiasm. At the same time, Chenghu also did not forget to carefully check Baocheng's homework to ensure his learning progress.

However, during a study session, Yinzhen accidentally knocked the scroll off the table. He immediately shouted in panic, "Brother, Xiaowu really didn't mean it." His voice was full of self-blame and worry.

Yinreng's eyes fell on the unfolded scroll, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes: "Brother, why do you have a portrait of a woman hidden in your study?"

Cheng Hu leaned forward gently and carefully picked up the scroll on the ground. "This was specially sent by my mother through Liang Jiugong, so that I could choose a virtuous woman from it to be my future Crown Princess."

Yinreng and Yinzhen stood side by side, their eyes fixed on him: "Brother, can you let us see our sister-in-law? Since we are selecting our future sister-in-law, we are willing to lend a hand and choose together."

Chenghu nodded slightly and gently handed the scroll to them. Yinreng and Yinzhen examined each portrait intently, occasionally whispering to each other and expressing their opinions. Their interaction seemed quite harmonious.

Yinzhen pointed at the portrait and praised it highly, saying, "This sister is so beautiful that it's breathtaking!"

Yinreng smiled slightly and added, "I find this sister's temperament gentle and charming, like a spring breeze that touches people's hearts."

Cheng Hu watched his brothers' joy and excitement, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He secretly lamented the fleeting passage of time. The young children of the past were now marriageable. The fleeting passage of time was a source of deep emotion.

Finally, after careful selection, the three of them jointly settled on two captivating portraits. After careful consideration, Chenghu decided to bring the paintings to his father and mother, carefully listening to their opinions and suggestions. Chenghu smiled, gazing tenderly at his two young brothers, his heart filled with relief and satisfaction.

"Okay, today's study has come to an end. It's time for you to complete your homework independently." There was a hint of gentleness in Chenghu's voice.

Yinzhen and Yinreng smiled at each other, then said goodbye to Chenghu, walked out of the study, and continued to complete their homework.

Cheng Hu sat quietly in his elegant study, gazing deeply at the delicate portrait in his hands, his mind drifting away. He looked forward to his future marriage with great anticipation, longing to find a woman who truly understood him and was a soulmate with him, and to spend his life together.

Time flew by, and soon it was time for the end-of-month examinations. Chenghu, the chief examiner, beamed with satisfaction upon seeing Yinzhen and Baocheng's results. He fulfilled his promise and took them to the Emperor to ask for a reward. Emperor Kangxi was delighted and generously rewarded all three children, praising Chenghu for his excellent teaching. From then on, Yinzhen and Baocheng studied even harder, and Chenghu continued to teach them with unwavering dedication, fostering a deep bond between the three brothers.
