Chapter 112 Meeting the Saint

Chapter 112 Meeting the Saint
On this day, several younger brothers stayed in the front yard. Fortunately, there were enough guest rooms. After Yihuan left, she arranged for someone to clean the room carefully, put incense, and told Abao to watch over it and make sure no ignorant maid offended the drunken man.

Of course, if any prince makes such a request, the mansion has prepared such a maid who can take over at any time.

Fortunately, the gentlemen were still easy to serve even when they were drunk. Even the tenth master did not make unreasonable demands. After the Wen Yunxuan incident, he had restrained himself a lot. The most direct manifestation was that he no longer went out to drink and no matter how uncomfortable it was, he insisted on sitting in the office every day.

Nowadays, everyone in the Ministry of War is suffering because the Tenth Master is watching them from morning to night every day. Although he does not interfere in their affairs, it is really stressful for them mentally.

The key is that he will conduct random checks at any time. No one knows when, but Master Shi will grab people to report to him. You have to consider how much to say, how to say, and what to say. It's very stressful every day and it's too tiring.

The next morning, Yihuan had just finished her breakfast when she heard that the Thirteenth Master wanted to see her, so she quickly let him in.

"Greetings to Fourth Sister-in-law. You worked so hard yesterday to host a banquet for me. I behaved rudely and got all the brothers drunk in my moment of happiness, making me a laughing stock." The Thirteenth Master's fair face was full of embarrassment and he bowed deeply.

"Thirteenth brother, your words are too polite. Your fourth brother is so happy that he doesn't know what to do. You will live in Kyoto for a long time in the future. Fourth sister-in-law has many secret recipes for dishes. You should come often." Yihuan spoke enthusiastically to the Thirteenth Master.

After all, this person was Yinzhen's favorite, a great man who was later nicknamed the "Executive Vice Emperor". It can be said that he was a brother that Yinzhen trusted and missed all his life.

"I hope Fourth Sister-in-law doesn't mind. Once my brother is settled, I'll ask Mrs. Fu to invite me back. Fourth Sister-in-law will also go to my brother's house to relax." As Yinxiang said this, he saw Liuliu trotting in.

Yinxiang squatted down slightly, opened his arms, and hugged Liuliu tightly: "Liuliu, do you still remember your thirteenth uncle?"

"Liuliu greets Uncle Thirteen." Liuliu is very eloquent.

Yinxiang loosened his right hand and spread it out in front of her: "Liu Liu, do you see what Uncle Thirteen has in his hand?"

"No." Liu Liu answered honestly.

"Watch carefully, don't close your eyes." Yinxiang said as he put his right fingers together and changed his palm into a fist. "One, two, three, change!"

Gently opening his right hand, a blooming flower appeared in his palm. Yinxiang pinned the flower behind the little girl's head and said, "Liuliu, do you like Uncle Thirteen's gift?"

"Wow!" It was the first time Liu Liu saw a magician. He stared at Yinxiang's hands, "Uncle Thirteen is so amazing!"

"Uncle Thirteen has something even more powerful." Yinzhen took out a handkerchief and gently wiped his palms. "Uncle Thirteen will teach you how to change next time we meet, okay?"

"Next time?" Liu Liu repeated, thought for a moment, broke free from Yinxiang's arms, took a few steps, lifted the curtain and walked out.

Yihuan counted one, two, three in her mind, and saw Liuliu lift the door curtain again. She stepped on her small boots and hugged Yinxiang's thighs with both hands: "Thirteenth Uncle, we meet again. Liuliu wants to see a magic show."

Yinxiang didn't expect the little girl to do this. He was stunned for a moment, then hugged Liuliu and kissed her on the cheek: "What a little genius you are. Liuliu, what do you want to see? How about uncle turning another apple into an apple for you?"

Liu Liu shook his head: "I want grapes."

Yinxiang smiled and said, "How about next time, I'll turn into an apple this time?"

"Next time?" Liu Liu wanted to push him away and run away again.

Yihuan quickly spoke to rescue Yinxiang: "Come here, Liuliu, we have your favorite soup dumplings in the morning."

Yinxiang took the opportunity to slip away. Yinzhen and Honghui were waiting for him in the front yard to go to the palace together.

In the carriage, Yinxiang was chatting with Honghui.

Honghui asked with great longing: "Uncle Thirteen, what you said yesterday was very interesting. I am really looking forward to it. It would be even better if I could follow you for another trip." Yinxiang was very close to Honghui. Seeing this, he smiled and said: "What's the point of following me? You can go out and wander for a while by yourself. You will definitely gain a lot."

Honghui was very moved after hearing this. He held up his chin and looked at Yinzhen expectantly.

Yinzhen glanced at him and said, "It seems that your mother's beating didn't hurt you enough."

Yinxiang shrugged helplessly at Honghui. It is a truth that has stood the test of history that one should not travel far away while his parents are still alive.

After entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Yinxiang felt the long-lost fatherly love from Kangxi.

"You child, you are so cruel. If I hadn't found you a wife, I wouldn't have seen you for the past five years." Kangxi saw Yinxiang kneeling at his feet. The person in front of him seemed both strange and familiar.

Five years is enough time for a child to grow into a young man. Just looking at Yinxiang at this time would make people happy.

"My son admits his mistake. I will always stay by your side in the future. I hope you won't be annoyed when you hear my name." Yinxiang took out a box from his sleeve. Liang Jiugong took it and presented it to Kangxi.

"This was drawn by my son after he measured and mapped it during his travels, and I'm giving it to the Emperor." Yinxiang was obviously very satisfied with the gift. He painted two pictures, one for his fourth brother and one as a present to the Emperor. He had to have a grand opening when he returned after disappearing for five years.

After Kangxi took it, he unfolded the scroll and spread it flat on the table. He glanced at it casually and his eyes were immediately fixed.

He was not an ignorant man. It was because he knew it very well that he was so shocked. This was a hand-drawn version that was more detailed than the existing maps. Many trails and minerals were specially marked, which was of great significance.

"Yinxiang, you can't just draw this randomly, are you confident?"

"Your Majesty, these roads were measured step by step by my son. You can send someone to check." Yinxiang was extremely confident in this hard work.

Kangxi nodded, saying that this was a serious matter and that it indeed required confirmation from multiple parties before it could be used.

"Okay, okay, now that you have grown up, you can help the Emperor share his worries."

"Take a break to shake off the dust from the journey, spend some time with your wife, and give me a little grandson." Kangxi looked at his son who was sitting below him.

"My son obeys your order."

"Qingya Garden has been empty for a long time. The hot spring there is very good. I will give it to you in the near future."

If you exchange a new map for a garden, you will suffer a great loss.

While complaining about the old man's stinginess in his heart, Yinxiang kowtowed happily on the surface to express his gratitude.

After meeting Kangxi, Yinxiang went to Yonghe Palace to pay a visit to Concubine De.

"This is the finest Shu brocade, especially the crane pattern which is unprecedented. Locals say that they cannot guarantee that they will have it every year, so they have never presented it to the imperial palace."

"Yinxiang saw them and thought they matched your skin tone very well, so he bought them all right away and gave them to you just to see if you like them."

Concubine De was so coaxed that she couldn't close her mouth: "You, you just know how to waste money."

After being in the palace for half a day, he coaxed the Emperor to personally appreciate a garden. The whole capital knew that the Thirteenth Master was back!
