TV series: Daily life of male supporting role

Chapter 35: Startling Steps Through Time and Space: The Big Broken Prince 02

Li Jiancheng went to the original owner's study and saw several aides sitting there. He impatiently waved them away and stayed quietly in the study.

Sitting in a chair with his eyes closed and dozing off, Li Jiancheng tried hard to recall the memories of the original owner, but it was of no use. Li Jiancheng only had the memory of being Li Yuan's eldest son, and he had no memory of this body at all.

"Ugh!"

In the study room where Yinzhen was alone, he let out a sigh.

Yinzhen wanted to make the best of things, but when he saw how submissive his servants were to him, he felt that the rules of this era were stricter than those of the Tang Dynasty.

If people found out that he was not the original owner, his life would be in danger.

He also didn't like the clothes that people of this era wore. They were too formal and a bit weird, and made people look a bit depressing.

After a long time, Yinzhen opened his eyes and began to look for traces of the original owner in the study.

As he searched for a long time, Yinzhen couldn't find a book in his study that could help him understand this world. There were only some military books and some calligraphy that looked like ghost paintings. Looking at the location where the calligraphy was placed, Yinzhen thought it must have been written by the original owner.

The handwriting is really ugly. Even if he doesn't like reading, he has learned good calligraphy. It's just that his writing is a little sloppy.

The existence of a military book meant that the original owner should have been a warrior. He was a prince and studied martial arts, which was consistent with his identity.

"Big brother, the eighth prince wants to see you."

Outside the door, the voice of Eunuch Shun was heard.

Yinzhen had no choice but to put the books back to their original places and sat on the chair seriously.

"Let him in."

"Whoo."

The study door opened and a gentle-looking young man in a blue robe walked in.

The young man walked up to Yinzhen and saluted him respectfully.

"I've met the eldest brother."

"Well, get up. What does my eighth brother want from me?"

Yinzhen's tone was too cold, which made the Eighth Prince's heart skip a beat. He glanced at a eunuch standing at the door without leaving a trace.

The eunuch shook his head slightly at him.

The Eighth Prince withdrew his gaze and cautiously asked, "What happened to my eldest brother today?"

Yinzhen watched the interaction between his eighth brother and the eunuchs in his mansion.

He narrowed his eyes. His eighth brother was so treacherous that he dared to place spies in his house.

This reminded him of his scheming younger brother, Li Shimin.

Yinzhen changed his sitting position, held his forehead, and said in distress: "Alas, your niece is sick again."

Upon hearing this, the Eighth Prince's face also turned very worried, "The eldest princess is sick again. My wife's maternal family has a doctor who specializes in treating pediatric diseases. Why don't we ask him to come to my brother's house to treat the eldest princess."

"Really?" Yinzhen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly stood up and walked to the Eighth Prince, "If the doctor's medical skills are really so miraculous, I will definitely reward him handsomely afterwards."

After saying this, he patted the Eighth Prince's shoulder vigorously.

The Eighth Prince gritted his teeth to endure the pain in his shoulder and said modestly, "This is what I should do as an uncle."

The two brothers seemed to chat for a while.

Yinzhen politely sent the Eighth Prince out of the house.

When he turned around and went back home and closed the door, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

Eunuch Shun was confused for a moment when he saw how quickly the eldest prince's expression changed.

"Master?"

Yinzhen looked at the eunuch who was said to have grown up with him, and then looked at the little eunuch standing in the corner as a background.

Eunuch Shun followed Yinzhen's gaze and found that the eldest prince was looking at Xiaolizi. He thought that Xiaolizi was just an ordinary eunuch, why was the eldest prince looking at him?

He pointed at Xiao Lizi and asked the eldest prince in a low voice,

"Master, is there something wrong with him?"

Yinzhen nodded.

Eunuch Shun's eyes changed instantly when he looked at Xiao Lizi.

Then, thinking of what happened to the Eighth Prince just now, Eunuch Shun's expression became even uglier.

The Eighth Prince is on the side of the First Prince, and he has also planted spies in his own house?!

Yinzhen followed Eunuch Shun's eyes and nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that this eunuch is loyal to him, oh no, it seems that he is loyal to the original owner.

"Find a time..."

As the eldest prince spoke, he gently stroked his neck with his hand.

"Yes." Eunuch Shun nodded to indicate that he understood.

After sending the people away, Yinzhen kept Eunuch Shun present and asked him to tell him about all the big and small things in the court.

Since Eunuch Shun knew that the Crown Prince had entered the Qianqing Palace, he should also be aware of what's going on in the imperial city.

Although Eunuch Shun didn't know why the eldest prince asked him to tell these trivial matters, he still told the eldest prince honestly.

Two hours later, Yinzhen poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Shunzi to moisten his throat.

Eunuch Shun drank the tea given by the eldest prince, only to find that the person who handed him the tea was his master.

He was so scared that he immediately knelt down to thank the eldest prince for the tea.

Yinzhen: ...

The rules of the Qing Dynasty are really hard to describe in a few words!

Yinzhi knew that the ruler of the Qing Dynasty he was in was not Han but Manchu. The father of the current emperor was Aisin-Gioro Xuanye, and his name was Aisin-Gioro Yinzhi. He was the eldest son of Emperor Kangxi. His mother was Concubine Hui, one of the four concubines, and was born into the noble family Nalan.

His lifelong enemy was his second brother, who was favored by his father and the current Crown Prince Aisin-Gioro Yinreng.

This was because his second brother was the legitimate son of the queen, while he was only the eldest son of a concubine.

The eighth prince, Aisin-Gioro Yinsi, who had just met him, was the son of a mother of humble origin and a family of humble origin. The only thing he could boast of was his wife, a member of the foreign clan, Guo Luoluo.

Yinzhi is now the Prince of Zhi, the first prince among many princes to be granted the title of Prince. The other princes are still Beile and Beizi.

Yinzhi's prestige in the court was second only to the crown prince, so naturally he had inappropriate thoughts.

Yinzhi wanted to snatch the position of crown prince, and even the place in his father's heart, from Yinreng.

Therefore, Yinzhi and Yinreng had been at odds with each other since childhood.

However, when Yinzhen heard that the original owner and the prince were in conflict, he thought that in addition to Nalan's instigation, it seemed that his father was also condoning it behind the scenes.

Yinzhen had been the crown prince. He knew that being the crown prince would make many of his brothers jealous. His father once told him that whether he could keep the crown prince position depended on how he balanced the conflicts between his brothers.

Emperor Kangxi might have wanted to promote Yinzhi to check the power of the crown prince.

In the court, only the Nalan family behind the original owner and the Hesheli family behind the prince were equally matched.

"Master, are you going to rest at Fu Jin's place tonight?"

Eunuch Shun glanced at the sky outside and asked carefully.

Yinzhen nodded and said, "I'll stay at Fu Jin's place tonight."

"Whoo."

Eunuch Shun got the confirmation and asked his subordinates to inform the wife and make preparations early, as the eldest prince would stay in the main courtyard tonight.

Yinzhen was still digesting what Xiao Shunzi said and was still a little confused about the future. After thinking about it, he decided to ask Emperor Kangxi for permission to guard the border after his wife gave birth to the child.
