Yinqi also knew the rules of his ninth brother, so he said, "It's like this. The Lifanyuan passed a proposal a few days ago to open a diplomatic academy to teach talented people at home and accept scholars from other countries."

Because the Qing Dynasty has repeatedly negotiated with other countries in recent years, whether civil, military or trade, the exchanges are quite frequent, so the officials of the Lifanyuan decided to open a diplomatic academy after several discussions.

While training people with language talent, it is also possible to accept foreigners who come to the Qing Dynasty from other countries voluntarily or involuntarily.

And all of these require money.

Whether it is building a diplomatic compound or placing other things, yellow and white things are indispensable.

As a prince working in the Lifanyuan, Yinqi naturally shouldered the important task of getting money from the Ministry of Revenue.

However, the people in the Ministry of Revenue were like misers who valued money more than anything else. They always came up with a lot of excuses to refuse to pay. Yinqi argued with the Ministry of Revenue several times, but got nothing each time.

This made him so angry that he went straight to find his own Khan Ama, hoping that he would issue an order directly to have the Ministry of Revenue allocate the money.

But unfortunately, his Khan father was an abnormal emperor.

When encountering such a thing, not only did he not order the Ministry of Revenue to give money, but he also asked him to come and ask for money from his ninth brother. If Yinqi was not good-tempered and timid, he would have scolded this incompetent Khan on the spot.

"Uh..." After listening to his fifth brother's narration, Yinzhen wiped away bitter tears for him.

It's really hard for the fifth brother to meet such a vicious person like their Khan Ama.

Khan Ama's madness finally spread to people like the fifth brother who have not been reborn.

Yinzhen sighed, patted Yinqi's shoulder in a soothing manner, then turned his gaze to Yinyou who was standing beside him and asked, "Seventh Brother, what about you? What happened to you?"

Logically speaking, Seventh Brother works in the Imperial Household Department, which is in charge of the royal treasury. He should not be short of money and should not need to ask the Ministry of Revenue for money, right?

Yinyou looked up at the sky in disappointment, "Ah..."

He sighed deeply and said, "I am not in the Ministry of Internal Affairs now."

"Huh? What?" Upon hearing this, not only Yinzhen, but also Yinqi was stunned.

Yinqi, who was closest to Yinyou, frowned and asked, "Seventh brother, when were you not in the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Khan Ama didn't issue an order."

Although changing jobs is quite normal, after all, my fourth brother has been changing jobs among the six ministries, from the Ministry of Revenue to the Ministry of Personnel and now the Ministry of Works. Every time my fourth brother changes jobs, Khan Ama will issue an edict.

But as for my seventh brother, they have never heard of the imperial edict.

Yinqi looked puzzled, and Yinyou quickly answered: "Khan Ama hasn't issued an order yet."

What happened was that Kangxi had just called Yinyou over two days ago, and after chatting with him for a while, he suddenly had an idea and transferred Yinyou to the Ministry of War.

"Ministry of War?" Yinzhen was shocked. "Does that mean you are asked to work with my elder brother?"

The person staying in the Ministry of War was their eldest brother, Prince Zhi Yinzhi.

"No," Yinyou laughed bitterly and said, "It would be great if I could follow my elder brother to do things."

Unfortunately, their Khan Ama arranged a few new soldiers for his eldest brother and sent him to the outskirts of Beijing to concentrate on military training. He was left alone in the Ministry of War, where he was unfamiliar with the place and had no idea how to get around.

"Hiss, I was wondering why I haven't seen big brother in the past two days."

Yinzhen slapped his head and finally found something wrong.

Normally, the eldest brother would have been running around harassing his younger brothers, but in the past two days he has been incredibly quiet and can't be seen anywhere.

Yinzhen originally thought that his eldest brother had finally matured and stopped playing with his younger brothers, but it turned out that it was Khan Ama who got his eldest brother out.

"I really didn't expect that." Shaking his head and sighing, Yinzhen asked again, "Seventh brother, you just joined the Ministry of War, where do you need money?"

"Also, the Ministry of War needs money, but the Ministry of Revenue won't give it to us?"

Yinzhen said that if that was the case, he would report it to the Ministry of Revenue.

Yinyou said helplessly: "It was Khan Ama. He had a sudden idea to organize a military exercise, but he did nothing and asked me to discuss with the Minister of War and others how to arrange it."

"This military exercise requires military supplies, but the Ministry of War doesn't have that much money, so we have to ask the Ministry of Revenue for money. But as you all know, the Ministry of Revenue is really stingy!"

Apart from the differences in the events, Yinyou's experience was basically the same as Yinqi's. Both of them were unable to reach an agreement with the Ministry of Revenue, so they ran to Khan Ama, hoping that Khan Ama would help them. As a result, Khan Ama sent them to the Ministry of Commerce to ask his brother for money.

The more Yinzhen listened, the more speechless he felt. He tilted his head slightly and said, "Seventh Brother, your experience is all due to Khan Ama's 'sudden whim'?!"

That's it? That's it?

Just like that, Khan Ama actually dumped all the things on him?

Is this true? !

"Then there is nothing I can do..." Yinyou was not as brave as Yinzhen. Although he also felt that Khan Ama was really strange, he did not dare to directly question his Khan Ama like Yinzhen did.

Yinzhen glared at Yinyou in dismay and said angrily, "Seventh brother! You should just hold Khan Ama's thigh and cry. Anyway, Khan Ama caused the trouble, so he should solve it himself!"

If he were the Seventh Brother, when he couldn't get money from the Ministry of Revenue, he would use Khan Ama as an excuse. If that didn't work, he would just throw everything onto Khan Ama. It was Khan Ama's fault since he had sudden ideas every day, so naturally it was Khan Ama's job to solve the problem.

"... ... I dare not." Yinyou said in a low voice.

He's really not that brave.

Yinzhen shook his head and sighed, "Well, if you don't dare, forget it."

After thinking for a while, looking at his fifth brother and then his seventh brother, Yinzhen reached out and took the account book on the table, turned to a blank page, and handed it to the two of them: "Write it down, how much money do you need, I will approve it for you when the time comes."

After all, he is his own brother. He comes to him to ask for money, how can he not give it to him?

Yinzhen couldn't help but snort in his heart and severely condemned his own Khan Father.

Khan Ama must have done it on purpose. He grasped his mentality and knew that he would definitely not let the fifth and seventh brothers return empty-handed, so he deliberately sent the fifth and seventh brothers to him.

Humph, Khan Ama is really abominable!
