Chapter 499 What gives you the right to ignore the facts?
The saying "alcohol emboldens the timid" is absolutely true. Normally, if Yinzhuo heard his elder brother's threatening words, he would have been obedient long ago. But today, the man had been given a drink, and that guy was really tough on him. If Yinti hadn't been holding him back, he probably would have been flying into the sky.
"Big brother, you're threatening me! Let me tell you, my father is watching right here. You dare to throw me down? If you do, I'll go tell my father and say you did it on purpose..."
Well, even though he's drunk, his thinking is still quite clear. Yinti glanced at Kangxi walking in front of them and could only sigh helplessly. Alas, what can you do when someone holds the biggest backer in their family's hands? When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
"Let us be companions in this mortal world, living freely and unrestrained, galloping on horseback, sharing the splendor of life, singing songs of joy to our hearts' content, seizing the prime of our youth with fervor, ah~ ah~ ah ah~~"
Although they knew that Yinzhu wouldn't be so obedient when drunk, everyone has a bit of wishful thinking, right? They were about to see him off to the very end, but unexpectedly, he still failed because of this last bit of hesitation.
As soon as Yinzhu sang, Yinti's anxiety finally subsided. When Yinzhu got into a rage, he was harder to control than a pig. It was only because Yinti was strong and had high martial arts skills that he could be subdued. Others might not have been able to control him.
"Sixth Brother, I'm warning you, if you dare to move again, I won't be so polite. Remember that bow that your older brother broke in one hand? Think about it carefully, how does your neck compare to that bow?"
Good heavens, if what came before was just a subtle warning, this is now a blatant threat. Yinzhuo naturally knew that his neck wasn't as tough as an arrow, but what did it matter? His father was still right in front of him.
“Father, are you even going to care about your son? My older brother actually said he was going to snap my neck! It doesn’t matter if my son dies, it’s just that the thought of never seeing you again makes me really sad…”
Although he knew that Yinzhuo had never been a martial artist, Yinti never expected him to be so shameless. Look at how sweetly he spoke, it was like he was talking about tea. Yinti felt an urge to slap him right now.
It's still better to act than to hesitate. Since the other party has already filed a complaint, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, wouldn't he be taking the blame for nothing? Thinking of this, Yinti didn't hesitate and slapped Yinzu on the back of the head.
"You better shut up. If you say another word, believe me, I'll let go right now and make you fall flat on your face."
Emperor Kangxi couldn't stand Yinzhi talking about life and death, and as he got older, he couldn't stand it anymore. But since Yinzhi was still drunk, he couldn't say anything. So he turned his attention to Yinzhi, and that's how Yinzhi got into trouble.
"Yinti, you're a grown man, why are you arguing with a child like him? He's drunk and naturally acting up, just go along with him. Putting aside the facts, don't you bear any responsibility for what happened today?"
Good heavens, good heavens indeed. Today he finally knows who Yinzhu learned his unreasonable behavior from. Let's not even talk about whether your son in his thirties is a child or not. Just tell me, why do you ignore the facts?
If we're not going to talk about the facts, what are we going to talk about? Your unreasonable and misplaced fatherly love? Have you forgotten that besides the one I have, you have more than twenty sons? So what, some are starving while others are drowning in water?
Even though Yinti was already cursing his father to the core in his heart, he dared not say it out loud. After sending Yinzu back to his residence, the man didn't stop for a moment. He put the man on the bed and then turned around and left.
He desperately needs to retreat to his own little corner of the world to calm down, otherwise his shattered heart might not heal anytime soon...
"Sigh... Big brother, why did you leave like this? Will we ever meet again, big brother? You have to be happy, okay? You have to be joyful, you have to be happy. It's okay if I'm no longer in your world, you just have to be happy, big brother... How can I live without you..."
Well, it's obvious he's putting on an act again. Yinti looked at the nagging leech clinging to his arm, his brows furrowed so deeply they could practically trap a mosquito. No, I mean, is there anyone who can save him right now?
That night, even though Yinti prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in the heavens, no one came to save him. Yinzuo clung to Yinti's hand like a leech, nagging on and on until the light of his lamp went out and Yinti finally broke free from his clutches.
"Dexi, your master is still drunk. You come here and keep watch. Remember, if anything seems wrong, immediately send someone to fetch the imperial physician..."
Yinzhu drank fruit wine. Although he was drunk, he was not seriously drunk. He slept well and woke up the next day with only a slight headache and dizziness, but no other discomfort.
"Your Majesty, you're finally awake. Is there anything that feels uncomfortable? His Majesty sent Physician Wang over early this morning, and he's waiting outside right now. I'll go and invite him in."
Yinzhuo was drunk, not sick. After taking his pulse, the imperial physician Wang only prescribed a hangover remedy. After confirming that he was not unwell elsewhere, he got up to report back to Emperor Kangxi.
Although Yinzhuo didn't feel he needed to drink any hangover soup, Kangxi had specifically sent Wan Quan to watch over him, so he definitely wouldn't allow him not to drink it. There's a saying, "A short pain is worse than a long one." Rather than dragging it out for ages and having to drink it anyway, it's better to just get it over with from the start.
Seeing that Yinzhuo drank the hangover soup with gusto, Wan Quan naturally saw no need to stay any longer. He cheerfully stepped forward, bowed to Yinzhuo, and then took his leave to report back to Kangxi.
Even if hangover soup is very effective, it won't work immediately just by drinking it. Since there's nothing else to do anyway, and my head feels dizzy, I might as well keep sleeping.
Yinzhu slept until the lamps were lit before waking up. He sat up from the bed, shook his head, and felt that his mind was clear, which meant that he was completely sober.
Yinzhu didn't drink a drop of water that day except for that bowl of bitter medicine soup. He was fine when he was asleep, but as soon as he woke up, his stomach started rumbling.
"Dexi, come in quickly and help the master wash up and change. Also, send someone to the imperial kitchen to bring over some food, anything will do. And don't forget to send someone to tell Father Khan that I'm alright now and that he shouldn't worry too much. It's already this late, so I won't go over to bother him anymore. I'll go see him tomorrow during the day..."
