Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother

Although Yinxiang was not as sharp as Yinzhen, he was not dull either. As soon as he heard this, he knew what his fourth brother was worried about, which was nothing more than the endless fighting between his eldest brother and his second brother, the Crown Prince.

His heart tightened, and he said with a serious face: "Fourth brother, I've got this in mind." But he didn't think that his eldest brother and second brother, the Crown Prince, would have a big fight, as the Emperor was still watching from above!

Yinzhen was worried and reminded him again: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared for one! Any turmoil in the previous dynasty will implicate many people. You must not get involved in it, so as not to get too deeply involved."

In the past few months, the conflict between the Emperor and the Second Crown Prince seemed to have deepened a lot, but it might also be his illusion, because the Emperor's attitude towards the Second Crown Prince was no different from the previous two years, and he was still as wary of him as ever.

The storm is coming, but the wind is blowing all over the building; the trees want to be still, but the wind does not stop! The second prince is gradually falling into a disadvantage, while the eldest brother and the eighth brother are eyeing him covetously. Yinzhen has been worried and nervous, fearing that the mountains will collapse and the rivers will dry up.

Hearing this, Yinxiang smiled bitterly and said, "I have no choice, what can I do?"

Honghui suddenly interrupted and said, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate. Uncle Thirteen, please don't give up on yourself or act impulsively. Who else can support Aunt Wen Ke and Aunt Dun Ke except you?

Aunt Wen Ke married far away in the frontier, and Aunt Dun Ke is about to marry too. To put it bluntly, most people in the world flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. How many aunts and great-aunts who married far away in the frontier lived long lives? You have to protect yourself first, so that the two aunts can rely on their natal families!

And Aunt Thirteen and my cousins, they only have you to rely on, if you are not careful, how can their lives be better?"

In his memory, once his uncle Thirteenth fell into poverty, Aunt Wen Ke and Aunt Dun Ke passed away within two years. This was the result of not having brothers from one's mother's side to rely on.

The Thirteenth Uncle's house became even more destitute overnight, and the Thirteenth Aunt and his cousins ​​were ridiculed and mocked by others. The Thirteenth Prince's house seemed like a cold palace in the palace!

After Honghui finished speaking, Yinxiang was stunned on the spot.

Yes, how could he forget the two sisters left by his mother? He approached the second prince just to support his sisters, but if he lost power, the fate of his two sisters would be worse than death, and they might even be deprived of the chance of life.

There are also the wife, concubine, Hongchang, the eldest princess and the second princess. If anything happens to him, his wife and children will be humiliated and will not even have the chance to live a peaceful life.

The Imperial Household Department was a place where people would flatter the weak and bully the powerful, and they were very good at torturing people. He and his two sisters had experienced this deeply during the time when their mother passed away!

Thinking of this, Yinxiang suddenly felt a little frightened. If he advanced he would die, and if he retreated he would also die. What should he do?

“Fourth brother, it won’t get to that point, right?…” In front of his nephew, Yinxiang tried to remain calm, but his voice was trembling.

Yinzhen was still grateful for his eldest son's keen understanding of the situation, and then he began to worry about the future of his thirteenth brother! What if something happened to the second brother, the crown prince? Not to mention the thirteenth brother, even he, the fourth prince, would not be able to escape.

"Just be careful. The situation is too confusing. Even I can't see the way forward clearly."

Throughout the dynasties, there are very few princes who can ascend the throne smoothly! The father is old and sick, but the son is young and strong. The throne is full of temptations, so there is a saying of fighting for the throne.

The fight for succession has always been cruel. In the worst case, one may lose his life, in the worst case, one may be demoted to a new position, and it goes without saying that his wife and children will be implicated. This is 100% likely to happen.

Yinzhen had not yet made up his mind to fight for the throne, but he had already seen through the cruelty of the fight for the throne from history books.

"..." Yinxiang was silent for a long time, no longer in his previous good mood.

Seeing that both his father and uncle Thirteen were worried about the future, Honghui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. All the effort he had spent on hinting to his father in the past six months was not in vain!

In fact, he did not say it too clearly. He only said one or two words casually. Sometimes it was about the quarrel between cousin Hongyu and cousin Hongxi in the study, and sometimes it was about the mood changes of Huang Mafa, but what he said more were words like "There is no two suns in the sky, and no two kings in a country."

At this moment, he mentioned again: "Thirteenth Uncle, don't worry too much. The Emperor Mafa is a wise monarch. He ascended the throne at the age of eight, eliminated Oboi at the age of fifteen, and then quelled the Three Feudatories Rebellion, recovered Taiwan, and fought three expeditions against Galdan. What has the Emperor Mafa not experienced in his life? I guess these turmoil in the previous dynasty are just minor disturbances in his eyes!"

Yinzhen secretly complained to himself - a small disturbance? The prince's party and the eldest prince's party each occupied half of the court, and the second prince and the eldest brother were about to fight each other. This is still called a small disturbance?

However, what the eldest son said does make sense. The emperor is like a huge tree that covers the sky. No matter how fiercely the people below make trouble, he will not be hurt. So can he just watch the situation where the prince's party and the eldest prince's party form cliques and engage in selfish activities and become too powerful to be eliminated continue?

Thinking of those opponents who fell at the hands of the Emperor, each of them was not an unknown person, but they were defeated by the Emperor, Yinzhen suddenly became pessimistic about his second brother and eldest brother, the Crown Prince.

As for the eighth brother, he can jump around as much as he wants. The more he jumps around, the further away he will be from the throne!

Once you have an idea in your mind, it will show on your face.

Yinzhen raised his eyebrows slightly, a sharp edge flashed across his eyes, "Thirteenth brother, the emperor is both the father and the monarch. The monarch is the leader of the ministers, and the father is the leader of the sons. As a son and a minister, you should be 'faithful to one man'! Remember, he is the only one you and I can be loyal to!"

——Thirteenth brother, you have positioned yourself wrongly. It was the Emperor Father who asked you to be loyal to the Second Crown Prince. On weekdays, you can listen to the Emperor Father and do whatever the Second Crown Prince tells you to do. But if there is a conflict between the Emperor Father and the Second Crown Prince, only the Emperor Father can give you orders.

Yinxiang immediately understood the hidden meaning of these words. His fourth brother was advising him not to be too loyal to his second brother, the Crown Prince. But what if the second brother, the Crown Prince, ascended the throne one day and held a grudge against him?

"Fourth brother, is this really necessary? The Emperor can't be so cruel..."

Yinzhen interrupted him sharply: "Shut up! Don't you know what you can and cannot say?"

“……”Fourth brother, I was wrong!

"Thirteenth brother, now you and I are just guessing. Maybe nothing will happen in the future? But if the time comes, you and I must make some plans and not put the cart before the horse!" If the second prince goes so far as to lead troops to force the emperor to abdicate, can you still go all the way?

Yinxiang's face turned pale and blue, as if he couldn't accept it. But as long as he thought of his two younger sisters who had married far away in the frontier and his wife and children, the balance in his heart tilted.

"Fourth brother, I get it, don't worry!"
