Chapter 2 Bounty Leaves
After hearing this, Yongzheng's expression indeed eased a lot.

"It's rare that you still remember your Thirteenth Uncle at this time!"

Yongzheng patted Hongli on the shoulder and smiled for the first time.

Because now no one is willing to mention Yinxiang when the Prince's Party has lost power, even many princes avoid talking about Yinxiang.

Even Yongzheng himself had to pretend to have forgotten the existence of Yinxiang in order not to arouse Kangxi's suspicion.

But the more this happened, the more Yongzheng, who valued friendship and loyalty, felt pity for Yinxiang, and the more he felt that he was sorry for Yinxiang.

Therefore, when Hongli mentioned that he was depressed because of his thirteenth uncle Yinxiang, it resonated with Yongzheng and made him feel good about Hongli.

This made Niuhulu and the people around her breathe a sigh of relief and they all looked happy.

"My son really wants to learn horseback riding from Uncle Thirteen again and go hunting with him again."

"Uncle Thirteen is the best at horseback archery, and he also takes the best care of us."

Hongli added at this time.

At this time, Hongli had a childlike face full of innocence.

Yongzheng nodded continuously.

It is obvious that he believes that Hongli is sincere.

Saying.

Yongzheng had no intention of visiting Niohuru and Hongli.

But because he learned that Hongshi had disregarded his feelings and secretly gone to the Eighth Prince's Mansion to watch a play, he no longer wanted to go to his favorite concubine Li, and instead planned to visit his other two sons who were over ten years old.

However, Yongzheng did not expect that when he came to Hongli first, he found out that Hongli was also thinking about the Thirteenth Prince just like him.

Then, Yongzheng, who had no intention of entering the house, went into Niuhuru and Hongli's room. He took the initiative to walk with Hongli and gently warned him: "From now on, you are not allowed to climb up there again, understand?"

"My son, I'll remember that."

Hongli nodded, and to prove that he really cared about Uncle Thirteen, he took the initiative to ask Yongzheng: "Father, can I go see Uncle Thirteen?"

Hongli's words moved Yongzheng even more.

After sitting down, Yongzheng did not take the tea handed to him by Niohuru. Instead, he held Hongli's hands with both hands and said to him with an apologetic look:

"Not yet. If you, Khanmafa, miss your Thirteenth Uncle one day, and invite your Thirteenth Uncle to the palace banquet, you can talk to him in the palace."

Hongli nodded and said in a disappointed tone, "I understand."

Seeing Hongli's disappointed look, Yongzheng felt even more ashamed.

For this reason, he decided to show more concern for Hongli to show his father's love and prevent Hongli from being too disappointed in him.

So, Yongzheng asked Hongli with a smile: "I heard from Mr. Pan that you are doing well in your studies?"

Hongli said modestly, "Mr. Pan, I don't deserve your praise. I just studied hard, but I didn't learn everything well."

"Show me your homework."

Seeing that Hongli was so sensible, Yongzheng became even happier and decided to get to know his illegitimate son, whom he usually paid little attention to.

Niohuru also smiled and hurriedly handed over Hongli's homework book.

Yongzheng really started to check Hongli's homework.

Although Hongli taught mathematics in his previous life, calligraphy was his hobby, so writing with a brush was nothing special. In addition, he inherited the knowledge of the original owner, so after possessing Qianlong, he did not delay his Chinese, Manchu and Mongolian homework.

After reviewing Hongli's Chinese, Manchu and Mongolian homework, Yongzheng began to check Hongli's mathematics and physics homework.

Mathematics is mathematics.

Because Kangxi was very fond of mathematics and even organized people to compile "The Essence of Mathematics and Physics", Yongzheng was very serious when checking Hongli's homework.

Fortunately, the mathematics in this era is only at the middle school level.

The mathematics and physics that Hongli was currently studying had not even reached the highest level of middle school.

But he was a math teacher in his previous life and scored 140 in math in the college entrance examination.

Therefore, math and science homework was naturally not a problem for him. After returning from school, he quickly finished his math and science homework in just the time of an incense stick.

On the contrary, Yongzheng was not as good as Hongli in mathematics and physics. It was only after careful examination for a long time that he confirmed that Hongli had done nothing wrong.

"You have done all these math and science homework correctly!" Yongzheng looked at Hongli with a complicated expression and said.

Then, Yongzheng pointed to a math problem involving a high-order equation in Hongli's homework book and asked him, "But how did you solve this problem? Has Mr. Pan taught you how to solve it?"

"Father, you have a keen eye. Mr. Pan hasn't taught us this problem yet. He just asked us to figure it out on our own. My son was able to solve it because he figured out a new pattern and was able to use it to quickly solve the problem."

Hongli replied at this time.

Yongzheng looked at Hongli seriously: "What pattern?"

Hongli took a pen and spread a piece of paper on the table. He explained Vieta's theorem to Yongzheng in a way that the people of the Qing Dynasty could understand:
"This is the pattern my son has figured out."

Although Vieta's theorem appeared in Europe in the 16th century, it was not introduced to China until the 19th century when the mathematician Li Shanlan wrote "Algebra".

Therefore, when Hongli explained this Vieta theorem, Yongzheng was stunned, with a look of disbelief on his face. Then he said with great joy: "If Khan Ama knew this, he would be very happy. This is the most appropriate gift to celebrate his 60th anniversary of the throne!"

"Don't tell anyone yet. When you see the emperor in a few days, I will present you with the Khanmafa."

Yongzheng instructed Hongli about this.

Hongli bowed and said, "Son, I will remember this."

It is now November of the 59th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi. The kings, beile and ministers have requested and agreed to hold the 60th anniversary celebration of Emperor Kangxi's reign in the first month of next year.

Therefore, both internal and external parties are preparing gifts for next year's grand celebration.

Yongzheng was no exception.

At the same time, he was also worried about how to take this opportunity to make Kangxi happy.

Therefore, the more Yongzheng looked at Hongli, the more he liked him.

He really didn't expect that his fourth son would be a genius in mathematics and physics!
This made him, who was very keen and capable in political power struggles, begin to have some new expectations for Hongli, and also gave him some confidence in his next fight for the throne.

Even the unhappiness he felt because his eldest son also went to curry favor with Yinsi was swept away in his heart.

"Su Peisheng!"

Yongzheng gave an order for this.

Su Peisheng, the eunuch beside Yongzheng, came over and said, "Master, please give your orders."

"Give Prince Hongli a hundred gold leaves, and give him the book 'Triangle Calculation Theory' that's in my study."

Yongzheng gave an order at this time.

"Thank you, Ama!"

"Thank you, Fourth Master!"

Hongli and Niohuru hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

Yongzheng raised his hand to let Hongli and Niohuru sit on equal footing. Then he said to Hongli, "I see that you are diligent in study, thoughtful, filial, and respectful, so I reward you with a hundred gold leaves. This will make it convenient for you to buy more books in the future. I don't want you to spend these gold leaves recklessly! You must remember this! In addition, the 'Triangle Calculation Theory' was written by you, Khanmafa. Since you have a talent for mathematics, take a look at it."

"My son, I'll remember that."

Hongli replied.

He was very happy to get a hundred gold leaves.

After all, having no money is always a very annoying thing.

As for the "Theory of Triangle Calculation", he wanted to know Kangxi's specific level of mathematics through this book.

Niohuru was also happy that Hongli was favored by Yongzheng, and her whole face became much more radiant.

Seeing that she was full of energy and had a different charm than usual, Yongzheng took off the white jade pendant from his waist and placed it in Niuhuru's hand. He held Niuhuru's hand and said, "You have taken good care of Hongli and prevented him from neglecting his studies. You have made great contributions to our Four Princes' Palace. I see it all. This jade pendant is something I keep close to my heart, so I will give it to you as a reward."

"Thank you, Fourth Master. Taking good care of my brother is my duty. I can't say I have done anything meritorious."

Niohuru hurriedly knelt down, her eyes filled with tears.

Yongzheng didn't know whether it was because he was in a good mood or because he hadn't seen Niohuru for a long time, but he felt that Niohuru looked even more pitiful, so he chose to stay here that night.

Hongli therefore listened to the creaking sound of the bed frame shaking all night.

But he was only ten years old now and could not experience the beauty of this place. He could only pretend to sleep and listen, and fell asleep unknowingly.

The next day, when he woke up, Yongzheng had already left, and Niohuru was sitting beside him, looking at him with a smile on her face and a loving expression.
