Chapter 169 Jealousy changes people beyond recognition
Chapter 169 Jealousy changes people beyond recognition
What was that saying again? Right, jealousy makes people unrecognizable. At this moment, Yinzhuo felt that this guy was absolutely right. Yinti and the others were obviously provoked by what he just said. The look in someone's eyes when they want to kill them is indeed impossible to hide. If looks could kill, Yinzhuo would probably be sliced into pieces by now.
"Hey, hey, big brothers, please don't look at me like that! You know I'm easily scared. If you keep looking at me like that, I might just collapse to the ground this time. And if you want me to get up then, well…"
Threat? You must be joking. Don't you know who we are? Crown Prince, Prince, Beile. Do you think we can be threatened by you? The answer is definitely no. Here we have to mention that saying again: "A higher rank can crush you." They hold the biggest card in their hands, and none of them can change that. But there's also the saying: "A death sentence may be avoided, but a living punishment is hard to escape."
"Little Six, look how cramped this place is! You're so scared. What can we, as your brothers, possibly do to you? Come on, brothers, don't just sit there. Come and lend a hand. See that beam over there? Put our little rascal on it."
Yinzhuo's words had clearly angered everyone, and they all responded to Yinti's words. Seeing that Yinzhuo had been captured by their elder brother, some moved tables and others brought chairs. After everyone had set up the platform, Yinti lifted Yinzhuo up, stepped onto the table, and threw him with all his might. When Yinzhuo came to his senses, he was already lying on the roof beam!
"Little Six, how does it feel up there? Is the air fresher than down here? Don't get too emotional, this is what your older brothers should do!"
Moved? No, Yinzhuo didn't dare to move at all. Even though he knew that the beam beneath him was very sturdy and could easily support his weight, and even though he wasn't particularly afraid of heights, he still didn't dare to move. After all, it was quite high off the ground, and if he fell, although he wouldn't die, it would still hurt a lot.
"Big brother, I was wrong just now, please help me down, okay?"
Yinti was also afraid that Yinzuo would fall from above, so after throwing him onto the roof beam, he did not get down from the table he was standing on. Although he wanted to give Yinzuo a small punishment, he did not want him to get hurt.
"If you want your big brother to give you a ride down, that's easy. We brothers were all angered by what you said earlier. Come on, praise us properly, and your big brother will give you a ride down from up there."
Praising someone? That's easy. For Yinzhuo, it was a piece of cake. His skin was as thick as a city wall, and he was quick-witted. Saying good or bad things was just a piece of cake for him.
"Praise me, little brother will praise you now. How about this, little brother will sing you a little tune too?"
Upon hearing Yinzhi's words, Yinti and the others knew that he was about to start bewitching them again. But as the saying goes, everyone has curiosity, and they also wanted to know how this kid planned to get them hooked today!
How do you get them to drink it? If Yinzhu knew what Yinti and the others were thinking, he would probably look down on them again. Since it's a potion of seduction, of course you have to drink it willingly.
"Come on, brothers, listen carefully, I'm about to sing... cough... Your smile is so beautiful, like spring flowers, blowing away all your troubles and worries. Your smile is so beautiful, like the summer sun, making the whole world and all the time beautiful like a painting..."
Good heavens, as soon as Yinzhuo opened his mouth, Yinti lost his balance and almost fell off the table. Luckily, Yinreng behind him raised his hand and supported him, which helped Yinti regain his footing. Yinti steadied himself, first thanked Yinreng, and then turned around and smiled at Yinzhuo.
"Is this how you usually sweet-talk the Khan, kid? Judging from what you said last time, you sang him a little tune before. In that case, why don't you sing that tune for us now..."
Yinzhuo is fine, but he's afraid that if he actually sings it, his elder brother will be so enraged by his shamelessness that he'll hang him on the roof beam for a whole day.
"Big brother, you seem pretty happy right now. Why don't you help your little brother down first, and then I'll sing for you guys after he's done? It's really too uncomfortable for me to keep hanging like this."
Yinti was indeed in a good mood at the moment. Upon hearing this, he reached out and grabbed Yinzuo's arm, pulling him down from the roof beam. As soon as Yinzuo landed, the first thing he did was to run quickly towards the door, only stopping when he reached the outside.
"Laugh, laugh, laugh! You're still laughing, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, you're not allowed to laugh anymore! Your little brother was thrown up to the rafters by your eldest brother! That high! He was thrown up there in a flash! You're not worried about me falling down, and you even want me to sing you a little tune? I'm not a singer. If you want to know, go ask Father yourselves..."
If Yinzhuo, who was perched on the beam just now, was a worm, he has transformed into a dragon the moment he returned to the ground. With the way you all are laughing at me, you still want me to sing for you? What are you thinking? Get out of my way, all of you.
He was fine until he said something, but his exasperated look instantly made everyone burst into laughter. Yinti and Yinreng were alright, since they usually liked to laugh, but what was up with his older brother who was always cosplaying as an ice cube? Was it really that funny that he was thrown onto the roof beam? Look at his big teeth showing, he was probably laughing even harder than on his wedding day!
"Fourth Brother, please stop laughing. This is really ruining your image. I know you have white teeth, you don't need to show them off to me from every angle. And Third Brother, please tone it down a bit. I can practically see your little tongue in your throat from here. And Second Brother, please be a little more reserved. We are, after all, the Crown Prince. Your laughter is really damaging to your dignity. Fifth Brother..."
This was really getting out of hand. If everyone had been laughing somewhat subtly before, they couldn't hold back anymore. Loud laughter echoed from inside the room. The people from the Ministry of Works didn't know what was going on with Yinzhuo, but hearing this laughter, they had two thoughts: First, who said there was no kinship in the imperial family? Look how good the brothers' relationship is! Second, it seems that Prince Zhao is even more favored than rumored. Why did the Crown Prince and the others come today? It's because they knew it was Prince Zhao's first day on duty at the Ministry of Works, and they were afraid they wouldn't cooperate, so they came to support him...
Well... I must say, the Ministry of Works' members did a pretty good job with reading comprehension. This explanation isn't entirely wrong, since Yinti and the others did come looking for Yinzuo because they were worried about him...
