My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1790: I'm Sick
"How much compensation?"

The Thirteenth Prince asked.

Brother Ninth: "..."

I was just waiting to see the emperor's father's excitement and forgot about the issue of the compensation multiple.

When he was stunned, everyone reacted.

The Third Prince smiled and said, "Fortunately, both sides bet four times, otherwise you would have lost money this time!"

Although I haven't lost anything now, I haven't gained anything either.

The Ninth Prince honestly admitted his mistake and said, "My brain was like a paste, I didn't think of this at all."

Kangxi listened, looked at the Ninth Prince twice, thought about his dazed look just now, and said, "You won this one time during the day, so you are so happy?"

You're not very smart to begin with, so don't make yourself even dumber.

The Ninth Prince said, "No, it was hot during the hunt, so I took off my hat."

Kangxi looked at the Ninth Prince and frowned, "How old are you? Do you still need someone to keep an eye on you?"

As he said this, he looked at Erhe, Chunlin and others standing behind the Ninth Prince, and was not very satisfied.

Each and every one of them is not steady enough, nor mature enough.

The two were as quiet as chickens.

They regretted coming in.

They thought they had a chance to play and bring honor to Master Jiu, but they didn't expect that the Emperor had come and it would not be the turn of the guards to play.

The Ninth Prince was afraid that Kangxi would be angry, so he changed the subject and said, "I won't forget this time..."

But how do we determine the multiple for the eldest prince and Yarjianga?

Just looking at the fight between the two during the day, which did not result in a winner, you can tell that the difference is not that big.

The Ninth Prince felt that it was difficult to determine the compensation multiple for these two people.

But it can't really be the same.

The eldest prince represents not only his own dignity, but also the dignity of the royal family.

The Ninth Prince considered and said, "If the eldest brother wins, the compensation will be 130%; if the prince wins, the compensation will be 1.5 times."

The eldest prince and Yarjiang'a looked at each other and had no objection to this multiple.

Kangxi did not say anything, just looked at the eldest prince and said, "I heard that Yaerjiang'a almost beat you during the day, so I bet on Yaerjiang'a to win!"

The eldest prince had no objection.

Yaerjianga looked proud and said, "Khan Ama, just wait!"

In fact, this choice was within his expectations.

After all, he is his nephew.

The emperor can be strict with his son, but not with his nephew.

The others also placed their bets.

The third prince, the eighth prince, Baotai and Yaerjiang'a.

The Fourth Prince, the Seventh Prince, the Tenth Prince, and the Thirteenth Prince bet on the Eldest Prince.

It's still four versus four.

But this time, Ninth Prince doesn’t have to worry about his efforts being in vain.

Seeing what happened to the eldest prince and Yaerjianga, the ninth prince became a little worried.

Wouldn’t these two gentlemen also fall for fifteen minutes?

He couldn't help but take out his pocket watch and check the time.

The third quarter of the first hour of the Xu month.

The Tenth Prince whispered, "Don't worry, Ninth Brother, it won't be like the last time."

The Ninth Prince wanted to ask the reason, but when he noticed Kangxi's gaze sweeping over him, he shut his mouth.

The Buku styles of these two people are different from others.

The two men wrestled in a more traditional way, grabbing each other's shoulders and pressing their heads together, without exerting any force with their feet.

When the test came, the two changed their tactics.

Yarjiang'a mainly tried to trip him, while the eldest prince hugged Yarjiang'a's shoulders, pushed him, or carried him on his back, trying to knock him over.

Both of them moved their bodies with great force.

First, the eldest prince exerted force and pushed Yarjianga back two steps.

Later, Yarjiang'a counterattacked and tripped the eldest prince.

After figuring out each other's tactics, the two began to fight hard.

Apart from those fancy techniques, the only thing that matters is strength.

Yarjianga was pushed back two steps each time and could only move back one and a half steps when counterattacking.

After two or three rounds, he was almost squeezed out of the carpet.

However, Yaerjiang'a did not surrender, but turned his body to the side, freeing half of his body, and then hugged the eldest prince's waist, intending to push him off.

The eldest prince saw through his move and tripped him when he had no chance to land.

Yarjiang'a's body fell out of the blanket.

The Eighth Prince and Baotai happened to be standing there, and they hurried forward to support him.

One of Yaerjiang'a's feet had already stepped on the edge of the blanket, which was considered out of the circle, but he did not play tricks. He looked at Kangxi with shame and said, "Khan Father, I lost..."

Kangxi looked at Yaerjiang Adao and said, "Riding and archery are the foundation of the Eight Banners. Buku strengthens the body and does not slack off in daily training. You are no longer children, so don't worry me."

Yaerjiang'a listened with his hands down and responded respectfully.

Kangxi looked at the others again, and they all stood still.

Kangxi's face became more solemn. He stood up and walked to the crowd, saying, "The founding kings braved the wind and rain and conquered the world with hundreds of battles. You have not contributed anything to the country, and it is not time for you to enjoy wealth and honor. Don't forget your roots, and don't leave me without anyone to use. I hope that you will be loyal to the country. If there is a war in the future, you will wear armor and lead the troops, so as not to disappoint the glory of our ancestors!"

With a "whoosh", everyone knelt down and received the order.

Kangxi nodded and said, "Get up! It's getting late, you should go back and settle down as soon as possible!"

After saying this, he led the eunuchs and guards out of the side hall.

Everyone bids him farewell.

The eldest prince and Yarjiang'a looked at each other and regretted it.

I just wanted to loosen up my muscles, but ended up getting scolded again.

The group left the side hall.

He Yuzhu was waiting outside with a lunch box.

Just now he was ordered to go to the kitchen of the imperial palace to get ginger soup. When he came back, the emperor was there. He could not enter the palace without being summoned, so he had to wait outside.

After half an hour, the ginger soup would probably have gone cold.

The eldest prince paused, saw He Yuzhu's lunch box, and said to the ninth prince, "Go back and drink the hot ginger soup, and go to sleep early."

The Ninth Prince agreed and thanked the Eldest Prince.

Everyone dispersed.

The ninth prince and the tenth prince live in the same courtyard.

The Ninth Prince originally wanted to call the Imperial Physician as soon as he got out of here, but after thinking about it, he decided to let it go and whispered to the Tenth Prince, "It doesn't look like it. Let's talk about it tomorrow morning!"

Otherwise, he would seem so delicate.

When Buku was being examined, he was still alive and kicking, but after that, it was time to call the imperial physician.

The Tenth Prince nodded and said, "It's up to you, Ninth Brother. If you want to go hunting tomorrow morning, then go hunting. This time you shouldn't have to worry as much as you did today."

"Uh-huh……"

The Ninth Prince was also thinking about it and would check again tomorrow morning.

The paddock was empty and the wind was howling in the middle of the night.

The Ninth Prince couldn't sleep because of the noise and missed his sleep. When he woke up in the morning, his eyes were dark and his voice was a little hoarse.

Seeing this, the Tenth Prince couldn't help but worry, "Did the Ninth Brother really catch a cold?"

The imperial physician was called in, but he didn't even bother to pretend to be well. He looked unwell.

The Ninth Prince said, "The wind was too strong last night. I didn't fall asleep until five o'clock in the morning. I'm feeling sleepy..."

Not only is the sound loud, it's also creepy to listen to.

Ghosts cry and wolves howl.

In this remote countryside, it's easier to scare yourself when you think about it.

I was so scared that I got scared.

The Tenth Prince said, "Then let's call the imperial physician, and then the Ninth Prince can catch up on his sleep."

As the Tenth Prince spoke, he ordered He Yuzhu to summon the imperial physician.

A quarter of an hour later, the imperial physician followed He Yuzhu over, took the ninth prince's pulse, looked at his face, and asked, "Did Prince Beile have trouble sleeping at night?"

The Ninth Prince rubbed his temple and said, "I have a headache, so I can't sleep, and my body is cold."

The imperial physician said, "Your Highness, this is a case of a cold. I will prescribe a prescription to dispel the cold and promote sleep. You should take it for two days..."

The Ninth Prince said, "Use less Coptis chinensis."

The imperial physician said, "Coptis chinensis is used to clear away heat and detoxify, and it removes dampness and heat. My Lord, you have contracted an external wind evil, and you need to dispel the cold. You can use ephedra, cinnamon twig, saposhnikovia divaricata, and angelica dahurica."

After hearing this, the Ninth Prince heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Then let's go downstairs!"

It’s better without Coptis chinensis.

Other medicines don’t taste good either, but they’re not as nauseating as Coptis chinensis which makes you feel sick for a long time after drinking it.

After the imperial physician wrote out the prescription and took the tea bag, he left.

The Tenth Prince said to the Ninth Prince, "I will go to the Imperial Court first and ask for leave on behalf of the Ninth Prince..."

The Ninth Prince asked curiously, "This time Khan Ama brought eight sons with him. I guess he intends for each of them to take charge of a banner. In my absence, will Khan Ama let Prince Jian take over, or will he let Baotai take over?"

The tenth prince thought for a moment and said, "It should be Baotai. Baotai is not very generous. After all, he is the son of a prince. He will have to support his family in the future. Khan Ama should be able to teach him a thing or two."

The Ninth Prince muttered, "I haven't taken care of my own son yet, and I'm still taking care of other people's sons."

Look at Yarjiang A, the way he calls him "Khan Ama" all the time, he is more like his own son than they are his own sons.

Today the dawn is late.

It was almost dawn when it started to get slightly brighter outside.

When the Tenth Prince travels, he always brings a lantern to light the way.

When the Tenth Prince arrived outside the main hall of the palace, he was about to ask the guards at the door to pass on a message when he saw a lantern coming from a distance.

It turned out that the eldest prince and the fourth prince came together.

Not only were the two of them walking in a hurry, their expressions were also somewhat solemn.

When the two saw the Tenth Prince here, they also had a bad feeling.

The eldest prince asked with concern: "Did the ninth prince not drink ginger soup last night?"

The Tenth Prince said, "I drank it, but my headache was so severe that I couldn't sleep all night. The imperial physician just took my pulse and prescribed a prescription to dispel the cold and promote sleep..."

After saying this, he glanced at the two of them and said, "It's not even breakfast time yet, why are the eldest and fourth brothers here?"

The eldest prince said, "The eighth prince has a high fever and has also been referred to the imperial physician, who said it is an external wind-induced evil."

The Fourth Prince continued, "The Thirteenth Prince is the same. His fever is not severe, but he has started to cough."

The tenth elder brother: "..."

It's really speechless.

Ninth brother’s illness is related to water, so those two’s illnesses should be real.

But now there were three people missing, and there was not even a replacement relative.

Just then, Liang Jiugong came out.

It turned out that someone had already reported to the emperor.

When Kangxi knew that several of his sons had come, he was a little confused as to the reason, so he let Liang Jiugong's successor in.

When everyone went in, Kangxi heard that several of his sons were sick. He frowned and said, "It's okay with the Ninth Prince, but what happened to the Eighth Prince and the Thirteenth Prince? After I left last night, didn't you go back and settle them?"

The eldest prince said, "I talked to Baotai outside the courtyard for a while, so he must have been caught in the wind."

The Eighth Prince was so delirious from the fever that his entourage came to the Eldest Prince for help.

The eldest prince went to check on her in person and had to find out the reason.

The Fourth Prince said, "The Thirteenth Prince should go back and settle down. He must have sweated from the competition last night and his clothes are wet..."
