Chapter 75 What is a Pyramid?

Little girl Liuliu slept a lot during the day, so she looked at her brother and mother with her big eyes, and opened her mouth and whimpered from time to time. Seeing that the little girl was having fun, Yihuan and her son continued talking.

"Mother asks you, do you know how many imperial grandchildren your emperor Mafa has?"

Honghui was stuck for a moment. In addition to those who were qualified to come to the study, there were many branch factions. If you really count them, there would probably be dozens of them.

"Look, among all the emperor's grandchildren, you are already at the top of the pyramid." Yihua saw that Honghui looked a little confused, and thought that he didn't understand, so she continued, "Honghui, people should learn to be satisfied. The emperor has already favored you enough. If the emperor heard what I said just now, he would be sad."

"His liking for you does not conflict with his liking for other grandchildren. Just like how my mother likes you and Liuliu, my mother doesn't like you any less because of Liuliu's existence, do you understand?"

Honghui shook his head: "Mother, what is a pyramid?"

Ah, this... Yihuan opened her mouth and suddenly realized that the child was just struggling with this. She thought about it, took a few books and arranged them in the shape of a triangle.

"You see, the top of this three-dimensional triangle is the top of the pyramid. Most people can only be the base and the cornerstone in their lifetime."

"For example, those of us who were born at the top of the tower naturally occupy more resources." Yihua thought for a moment and continued, "We can't be the vested interests and still say that we get less."

Honghui nodded and said to himself: "No wonder uncles sometimes don't like Honghui, so this is the case."

"Our Honghui is a big boy that everyone loves." Yihuan pinched his cheeks, "Why do you like Hongxi and Hongjin more recently?"

Although Honghui understood, he still couldn't let it go. He nodded reluctantly: "The emperor calls them to have dinner every day."

"Well, your father also goes to the palace to pick you up every day, has dinner with you every day, and tests your homework every day." Yihuan imitated Hui, putting the emphasis on "every day".

As Honghui listened, he finally smiled happily: "My son accompanies my father every day and shows filial piety to my mother on his behalf."

"Okay, it's getting late, go back and rest early." Yihua saw her little daughter lying on her back with her arms and legs waving around. Honghui covered her with a blanket from time to time and said, "Liuliu is really naughty, just let the nanny watch over her later."

"Son, I'm leaving." Before leaving, Honghui leaned close to Liuliu and kissed her on the cheek, then left with satisfaction.

The lights in the front yard were still on. Honghui was about to go to his own yard, but after thinking about it, he turned around and went to the study.

Su Peisheng was guarding outside and saw the light of a lantern coming from afar. He looked closely and saw it was the eldest prince, so he immediately came forward to greet him.

"Big Brother, why are you here?"

"Hello, Eunuch Su. Is Ama asleep? Do you have time to see me?"

"Brother, please follow me in." Over the years, it goes without saying that Brother Honghui matters to the master. Su Peisheng never neglects his master just because he is young.

Yinzhen looked up and was a little puzzled when he saw Honghui coming in. This child was very well-behaved. Since he moved into the front yard, he had never stepped into the study room without his permission.

Looking at his expression carefully, Yinzhen found that the depression between Honghui's brows had disappeared. He thought it was because of Yihuan's comfort.

Thinking that he didn't know why Honghui was unhappy, Yihua comforted him. Yinzhen felt his toothache start again. "Son pays respects to Father." Honghui was polite and thoughtful, and then took out a bag of medicinal materials from his arms. "Son went to the Imperial Hospital during lunch break today and found Qin Imperial Physician. I described your toothache in recent days to him. Qin Imperial Physician prescribed several medicines and said that you can drink them in water to relieve it."

Yinzhen sucked his teeth to hide the pain and said, "You are so thoughtful. Put it here."

"Mother said that Ama hates taking medicine the most. From today on, I will watch you drink it every day. Eunuch Su, please go and make a cup for me."

Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng first glanced at Yinzhen, who had an expressionless face. Seeing that he had no reaction, he took the paper bag from Honghui and went downstairs to flush the toilet.

There was no one else in the room. Yinzhen looked at Honghui, who looked calm, for a while, and suddenly said, "Stay away from Hongxi, Hongjin, and Hongyu recently."

"Don't worry, father. Apart from Hongqing, my son has not yet opened up to these cousins."

"Hongqing is a carefree child. His family is not peaceful. You should stay out of it."

"What are you talking about, father? How can the fight between wives and concubines affect us sons? Don't you think so?"

As Yinzhen listened, he felt something was wrong. Was this child hiding something from his words, or was he talking about things in his own house?

"Father, today mother told her son a story about the pyramid. Do you know what a pyramid is?" Honghui proudly showed off in front of Yinzhen, and was satisfied to see that father's face turned completely dark.

Just at this moment, Su Peisheng came in with a cup of tea. Honghui stood up and left, waving his sleeves, leaving only a cup of "medicinal tea".

Yinzhen took it and drank it all. After putting down the cup, he felt funny. This brat was so awkward in showing off to others. He even took the opportunity to show off to him. It was just that Yihuan treated him better. He had known about this for six years and had been secretly feeling jealous for a long time.

Suddenly, the curtain was opened again. Honghui leaned against the curtain and said loudly, his voice could be heard throughout the courtyard: "Oh, Father, I forgot to tell you just now. When I went to the Imperial Hospital today, Imperial Doctor Qin had something to say. He said that toothaches are mostly caused by bad eating habits."

"Let's not put the frosted sugar cakes in the carriage. Our son is grown up now and doesn't like these greasy sweets. You don't have to worry about wasting your daily food."

After Honghui finished speaking, he held back his laughter and trotted back to his yard.

Yinzhen picked up the inkstone and smashed it towards the door. Su Peisheng saw it and found it funny. "Master, you saw the prince running out of the study and then you threw the inkstone. You didn't intend to hit anyone at all."

"This brat, although he's not that old, he knows how to make me angry."

Seeing that Yinzhen didn't seem really angry, Su Peisheng continued, "Big Brother is so filial that I didn't even notice that you had a toothache. It shows that Big Brother cares about you all the time."

"Hmph! Everything will be fine if he stops being angry with me twice." The older he gets, the better he is at playing tricks on people. He said it so loudly that by tomorrow the servants in the Prince's Mansion would know that he has a toothache from eating too much sweets. Where is the dignity of this Prince!
"Master, shall I make you a cup of this medicinal material every day?"

"Go ahead, save some money."

"Yes."

"When I go to Fu Jin's place, I will also want to know what a pyramid is." Yinzhen said this sourly and walked towards the main courtyard.

Su Peisheng wanted to say that the lady should have gone to bed by now, and you can't ask her anything today.
