Rebirth: I'm a Daddy's Darling in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 159 People can teach you everything, but you won't understand it the first time; experi

Whether Yinti would be beaten to death by his mother is unknown, but two days later, Yinzuo and his entourage set off on time. The trip to the grasslands, originally scheduled for August, was delayed until September due to Yinzuo's injury. In order to catch up, unlike the leisurely and unhurried attitude when they came, this time, if it weren't for the fear that the Empress Dowager was too old and her body couldn't handle it, the speed of the procession would have been almost as fast as a forced march.

"Sixth Brother, we've made plans with Ninth Brother and Tenth Brother to go horse racing up ahead. Are you going?"

Compared to the Empress Dowager, who hadn't returned to her hometown for forty years, the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Princes were far more enthusiastic about the new map that was about to be lit up. Ever since they saw the grasslands, they hadn't stopped talking for a single day. Although the weather in September was a bit cooler in the mornings and evenings than in July and August, it was still midday. Yinzhuo must have been really crazy to think of going outside with them to bask in the sun. So when he heard the Fourteenth Prince's words, he refused without hesitation.

“No, you two shouldn’t run too far. Otherwise, you’ll regret it if you fall behind. And Thirteen and Fourteen, we’re all princes, so going out to ride horses is fine, but you should still put on some sunscreen. I’m afraid that if we keep going like this, you two will be tanned to a crisp before we even reach our destination.”

That's right.

It's not that Yinzhuo is trying to belittle them, it's just that these two have been going out a lot these past few days, and they've gotten so much darker. Yinzhuo really thinks that if these two keep getting this tanned, it won't be long before they can only find people by voice tracking after dark.

It's no wonder that the Fourteenth Prince can get along so well with Yinzhen and Yinzhen. These three are really all the same, forgetting the pain as soon as the wound heals. The Thirteenth Prince obediently nodded after hearing what his Sixth Brother said, but the Fourteenth Prince is the typical stubborn mule, even if he is convinced in his heart, he can't admit it verbally.

"Sixth Brother, what are you saying? I'm a real man, what's wrong with a freckle? Besides, I'm not like you, so concerned about my appearance. I think I look great like this, very manly..."

Thirteen felt a wave of dizziness upon hearing Fourteen's words. He simply couldn't understand what Fourteen was after. Was he just enjoying being beaten up by his Sixth Brother?

"Um... Sixth Brother, this has nothing to do with me. If you want to punish someone, just punish Fourteenth Brother. Ninth Brother and Tenth Brother are still waiting for me. I'll go find them first..."

As the saying goes, "It's better to die for your friend than for yourself," so Thirteen dared not plead for Fourteen at this moment. He thought that rather than standing there and having his Fourteenth brother get into trouble with Sixth Brother, it would be better to just ignore it. As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator, and since it was Fourteen who had the sharp tongue, Yinzhuo would certainly not make things difficult for Thirteen.

"Alright, go find your ninth and tenth brothers first. Fourteenth Brother probably won't be able to ride with you today, so you don't need to wait for him."

No, why can't we go horse racing together? He can... Fourteen reached out to try and stop his thirteenth brother, who was about to leave him, but it was clear that his thirteenth brother was determined to go.

"Fourteenth Brother said it's alright, it'll pass in a bit. Take care, Thirteenth Brother will come see you later..."

Fourteen... past? Past where? You don't sound like anything's wrong at all. Fourteen turned his head to look at Yinzhuo, who was looking at him with an unfriendly expression, and then turned his head to look at Thirteen, who had already run far away. He immediately felt that something was wrong. Um... Thirteenth Brother, look at Sixth Brother's expression. Are you sure you'll still see me when you come later?

Yinzhuo still gave the Fourteenth Prince some face, at least he didn't make trouble for him when the Thirteenth Prince was around. But now that the Thirteenth Prince was gone, the Fourteenth Prince was in trouble. Yinzhuo walked over to the Fourteenth Prince, grabbed his ear, and dragged him into his carriage.

"You're a real man, aren't you? You're very manly, aren't you? Okay, it seems I was right the other day. You really should discipline your little brother early on. Come on, sit here. Don't worry, it won't hurt. Just like you said, Thirteen, it'll be over soon."

Fourteen thought that his sixth brother would only hit him a few times if he was angry. He was thick-skinned and wouldn't be hurt even if he was hit a few times, so even though he was a little uneasy, he wasn't very scared.

But how could he have imagined that his sixth brother would act so unpredictably? To be honest, when he saw his sixth brother take out the silver needles, Fourteenth Brother froze. If he could still pretend to be calm for the sake of his reputation just now, he really didn't dare to be stubborn at all now.

"Sixth Brother, why don't you just hit your little brother a few times to vent your anger? You can't play with silver needles like that, what if you don't do it right..."

Yinzhuo knew, of course, that the silver needles weren't meant to be played with like that. He only brought them out to scare the Fourteenth Prince, but he never expected the boy to be so easily frightened. He backed down before it even started, and now the game was over...

"Look at you, so easily frightened. It's just a few silver needles, why are you so scared?"

When Fourteen saw his sixth brother put away the silver needles, he instantly perked up and became a hero again. He had just thought his sixth brother was really going to prick him with those needles! Good heavens, he was terrified. Moreover, he felt that his sixth brother's words were wrong. Was he afraid of those few silver needles? He was afraid of his sixth brother, okay? He was afraid that with his sixth brother's mediocre medical skills, a few needles might kill him. Who could he complain to then?

Although Fourteenth Brother always forgets the pain once the wound heals, this wound is still fresh. Naturally, he wouldn't dare to provoke his Sixth Brother's tolerance at this time. So, he fawned over him, took the cup from the small table, poured his Sixth Brother a cup of tea, and handed it to him with a fawning smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, my courage has been growing lately. Sixth Brother, I was just being cheeky. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me. Ninth Brother, Tenth Brother, and Thirteenth Brother are probably still waiting for me to go horseback riding. Sixth Brother, can I go now?"

Although the Fourteenth Prince was fawning over him, Yinzhuo still found him unbearable to look at. He hadn't intended to do anything to the Fourteenth Prince, and seeing him so eager to run away, he naturally didn't bother to keep him.

"Go away, get out of here. Just looking at you gives me a headache. But remember this: think twice before you speak or act next time, or you'll get into trouble for what you say."

Yinzhuo knew that the Fourteenth Prince was at a rebellious age, and no matter how much he talked to him, it would probably just go in one ear and out the other. So he was too lazy to lecture him. As the saying goes, it is useless to teach someone a hundred times, but an experience can teach someone once and it will stick in their heart. He and the Ninth Prince still couldn't learn to control their mouths, and sooner or later they would suffer a great loss because of it.
