Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

Yinzhen's body stiffened, and he kept thinking about Yinzhen in his heart.

No matter how much he likes Yixiu, he can only think about her silently in his heart.

He couldn't take advantage of others' misfortune at this time.

Letting Yixiu lean on his arms was already a compromise measure in an emergency.

However, Yixiu shrank back into his arms, and Yinzhen gritted his teeth and reached out to hug her back.

Yixiu slept very soundly.

When Yinzhen hadn't woken up yet, she and Ran Dong didn't dare to fall into deep sleep, and they came here almost in fear.

Now Yinzhen has woken up, and although he is still injured, he gives people a reassuring feeling.

She was awakened by the crackle of burning wood and felt herself leaning against something soft.

She suddenly opened her eyes and found herself in Yinzhen's arms, and she couldn't help but move.

Yinzhen noticed immediately, "Are you awake?"

There was endless concern in the boy's voice.

Yixiu sat up straight without saying a word, "I'm awake, thank you."

Yinzhen felt lost.

Yixiu simply said "thank you" and defined this as him helping her, thus distancing herself from him.

"Do you want to sleep a little longer?" Yinzhen estimated the time. "It's still two hours before dawn."

Yixiu shook his head, "Let me keep watch. If you have a fever, it will be troublesome in this mountain."

Yinzhen lay down obediently. He thought he wouldn't be able to sleep, but he fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down.

Come to think of it, what I've been going through these past two days has been tiring.

After daybreak, the two finally felt refreshed.

Yinzhen took some time to carve two sharp wooden sticks for Yixiu.

"Use this to support yourself and walk more easily. If any assassins come, you can also stop them."

Yixiu felt that Yinzhen was very thoughtful in considering these things.

They continued walking east.

About half an hour passed, and they had only walked two miles.

But surprisingly, they found a house!

This kind of place should be where people who live in seclusion in the mountains live, or where hunters stay temporarily when they enter the mountains.

It is deserted, but the house is still intact and even contains many daily necessities.

It was just because it rained a while ago that the courtyard wall was washed down and some of the furniture was damaged.

But I think this family lived here before the rain, and then left because of the heavy rain. They left in a hurry and didn't take many things with them.

The two of them searched around.

There was not much food, but there was still some clothes.

The two looked at each other and thought of a new method at the same time.

"acting!"

Soon, two young men dressed as young women came out of the house.

One of the women was tall, with her head tightly wrapped in a headscarf; the other was thin and shorter.

Yinzhen touched the headscarf on his head uncomfortably.

It was his first time dressing up as a woman, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

In fact, Yinzhen's appearance was not feminine. If you looked closely, you could still tell that he was a man. However, asking a prince to disguise himself as a woman was something that the assassins would never have thought of.

The two men made a prompt decision and headed towards the main road immediately.

Yixiu looked at Yinzhen, "Take smaller steps and swing your arms less."

Yinzhen followed his instructions and made some changes for a long time before his steps became like those of a woman.

Yixiu inexplicably thought of Noble Lady Fucha's "Pre-Qin Lady's Steps".

It wasn't long before they walked out.

At this time, the two men were still carrying backpacks with some random things in them, covered with grass.

It looks like they are two ordinary people who go into the mountains to make a living.

Those assassins must be lying in ambush on their way back. It depends on whether they can get away with it.

-----------------

In the capital, Emperor Kangxi also mobilized people to search for the whereabouts of Fourteenth.

Among all his sons, except for the deposed Crown Prince Yinreng, his favorite son was the Fourteenth Prince.

Although he does not plan to let the fourteenth son inherit the throne now, he does not want to lose his son.

"Has there been any reply from Anqing Prefecture?"

Emperor Kangxi asked Sandezi.

San Dezi said, "No news has come yet."

He took two steps anxiously.

Suddenly, Emperor Kangxi heard the sound of people talking in front.

"I heard that the Fourteenth Master was killed by the Fourth Master this time."

"Aren't the Fourth Master and the Fourteenth Master brothers from the same mother? Why would he do such a cruel thing?"

"I heard that the Fourteenth Master and the Fourth Lady are in love. Do you think that man can remain calm after being cuckolded?"

"The Fourteenth Master and the Fourth Lady? No way, there is a big age difference between them."

"So what? The previous Concubine Wan was seventeen years older."

"By the way, didn't the Emperor want to grant Fourteenth Master a marriage? But Fourteenth Master refused."

Sandezi lowered his head and dared not even breathe.

Emperor Kangxi was extremely angry and walked out.

The gossiper hurriedly bowed, "Good luck to the emperor."

Emperor Kangxi: "What's the matter with what you just said!?"

The two servants were extremely terrified.

"I...I heard it from others. Your Majesty, I admit my guilt!"

Emperor Kangxi wanted to ask Sandezi, but at this time, Concubine Yi came over with her people.

She looked at the servants and said, "Your Majesty, what mistakes have these two servants made? How could they make Your Majesty so angry?"

Emperor Kangxi looked at Concubine Yi and asked, "When you were managing the six palaces recently, have you heard any rumors in the palace?"

Concubine Yi thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty is talking about the rumors about the Fourth Lady and the Fourteenth Prince. I have already dealt with many people and have also ordered people not to talk about it."

"I naturally won't believe such nonsense."

"These two slaves disobeyed orders today, so they will be severely punished."

As she spoke, Concubine Yi winked at her nanny.

The nanny immediately took the two servants downstairs.

Emperor Kangxi did not interfere with how Concubine Yi managed the harem.

His attention at this moment was entirely on the rumors.

Concubine Yi said to Emperor Kangxi, "Your Majesty, I don't know where these rumors came from. I just want to find out the source as soon as possible so that the Fourth Lady and the Fourteenth Prince can be cleared of all charges."

source?

At this time, Emperor Kangxi could only think that there is no smoke without fire.

What else could be the root cause?

They must really have something!

Concubine Yi was filled with worry. "Your Majesty, I think the most important thing to pay attention to right now is Prince Yong's mood. I wonder how angry he must be with the Fourth Lady and the Fourteenth Prince when he learns of this."

Emperor Kangxi was reminded again by Concubine Yi's words.

Yes, in this matter, the fourth brother was the most annoyed.

Could it be that Fourteenth was in danger and disappeared because of Fourth?

Although the relationship between the two brothers has been getting better and better in recent years, it is normal for them to become enemies after something like this happens.

Emperor Kangxi could no longer stand it, so he sent Concubine Yi away and asked Sandezi to summon Yinzhen into the palace immediately.

When Yinzhen thought of the rumors circulating in the capital recently, his heart sank.

I'm afraid Emperor Kangxi has also heard about it.

Yinzhen said to Su Peisheng, "Go to Yonghe Palace to find your mother."

After saying this, Yinzhen immediately went to the Yangxin Palace.

As soon as Yinzhen saw Emperor Kangxi, he knew that his guess was almost right. Emperor Kangxi's expression at this time was very serious and cold.

Yinzhen greeted Emperor Kangxi as if nothing had happened.

"My son pays his respects to the Emperor."

Emperor Kangxi asked him: "You look a little haggard."

Yinzhen sighed, "My fourteenth brother has been missing for the past few days, so naturally I can't sleep well."

Emperor Kangxi did not expect Yinzhen to say it so bluntly without any concealment.

"Is it hard to sleep because you are worried that Old Fourteen will come back, or because you are worried that Old Fourteen will not come back?"

When Yinzhen heard Emperor Kangxi say this, he was still disappointed even though he was mentally prepared.

He knew that Emperor Kangxi did not like him as a son, but when he really faced Emperor Kangxi's suspicion of him without any reason, he still felt unbearable heartache.

Yinzhen's expression remained unmoved.

"Of course, he was worried that his fourteenth brother would not be able to come back. He went to the same city this time to clear his son's grievances."

"Even if he didn't go to the same city, he is still my son's brother."

Emperor Kangxi stared at him and changed the subject: "I heard that Yixiu has been ill for a long time. What is wrong with her? I need to send an imperial physician to take a look."

"My son would like to thank Father Huang for his concern on behalf of Yixiu. It's just that Yixiu was injured when she gave birth to Honghui, so she has been feeling unwell for the past few years. She will be fine after resting for a while. Doctor Wen is a good doctor."

Yinzhen's words were well-spoken and flawless.

Emperor Kangxi did not give up his suspicion of Yinzhen. What's the use of saying so many nice words? We still have to see what he does. Now Yinzhen is indeed the most suspicious.

Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but think of Concubine Yu and the eldest prince.

He was extremely angry at the time. If Concubine Yu was not the last descendant of their family and the eldest prince was not his own son, he would have punished her severely long ago.

Even so, the ending for both of them is not good now.

He didn't believe that Yinzhen could be so tolerant.

"I have heard the rumors in the capital."

Emperor Kangxi's tone was indifferent.

"Is there anything you want to say?"

Yinzhen thought about it carefully for a while before saying, "Father, there have been many rumors in the capital recently. Some say that the ninth brother framed his son for the throne, while others say that the ninth brother is innocent and that it was his son who framed him with a cruel trick in order to seize the throne..."

When Emperor Kangxi heard Yinzhen say this, he realized that Yinzhen didn't care about love at all and all his thoughts were on the ninth prince.

"It's about Yixiu and Old Fourteen."

"I think this is nonsense," Yinzhen said, "Yixiu is the sister-in-law of my fourteenth brother. How could my fourteenth brother do such a thing?"

Emperor Kangxi could not help but say, "Although the story may not be true, there is no guarantee that you will not be angry with Yixiu and the Fourteenth Prince after hearing these rumors."

Yinzhen looked at Emperor Kangxi.

The Emperor was indeed confused.

He is not young anymore.

He would never ask his son so bluntly in the past.

"Father, what kind of person is Yixiu, and what kind of person is Fourteenth Brother? Not only do your sons know, but Father also knows."

"Yi Xiu is the wife chosen by the Emperor himself for his son. She has given birth to his children and taken care of his affairs. His son loves her dearly, so how could he doubt her just because of some small talk?"

"Fourteenth brother is a great general appointed by the emperor. He fought for the Qing Dynasty and his injuries have not yet fully healed. How could such a person do something that harms the Qing Dynasty and tarnishes the reputation of the royal family?"

"Even if my son has poor vision and cannot judge people well, the emperor will definitely not make a mistake in judging people."

Yinzhen put two high hats on Emperor Kangxi's head.

Emperor Kangxi's mood eased.

He thought maybe he was too sensitive.

"But this rumor is really too abominable. It seems like someone is trying to sow discord between my son and my fourteenth brother."

"Father, rest assured, I will clear up these rumors as soon as possible and wait for my fourteenth brother to return."

Yinzhen smiled again and said, "When Yixiu gets better, I will bring her to the palace to express my gratitude."

When Emperor Kangxi heard Yinzhen's statement, he knew that he might have been overthinking.

He did not attack Yixiu and Lao Shisi, which meant that there was nothing wrong between them.

Not long after leaving the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Yinzhen met Concubine De.

"Eniang."

De Fei said, "As soon as Su Peisheng called me, I came over."

"It's just that this matter is not suitable for me to come forward and solve it with you."

"Otherwise, the emperor will only think that my mother and I are guilty and that I chose to give up the Fourteenth Old Man in order to protect you."

Yinzhen nodded.

The situation was urgent just now and he didn't think it through immediately.

If both he and Concubine De went, wouldn't it mean that they were paying attention to this matter and seemed guilty?

"Does the Emperor suspect you?"

Yinzhen: "The Emperor thought I attacked the Fourteenth Prince for Yixiu's sake."

Concubine De sighed softly, "This must have been done by Concubine Yi."

"You and the Fourteenth Prince have become enemies, and the Emperor has punished you because of the Fourteenth Prince. This is what Concubine Yi wants to see the most."

Yinzhen said, "I haven't even started to attack them yet, but they are already jumping up in anxiety."

He sneered.

"So what if he was crowned a king? The emperor gave him the title of 'Ya' in the beginning. How could he have intended for him to succeed the throne? The title told him to stay in his place and abide by the law."

"The current situation has made many people who are not in a position to be in the limelight want to come up and get a piece of the pie." Defei's face also turned cold, and the two of them looked like real mother and son at this moment.

"Deal with those who spread the rumors first, and leave Concubine Yi to me."

-------------

Yinzhen quickly found the source of the rumor, which was done by some street idlers. Such a story with a somewhat erotic feel spread particularly quickly.

Just when I wanted to investigate further, the clues were cut off.

Several people looked at each other, and no one knew where this rumor came from.

Even torture did not produce any results.

Yinzhen was still puzzled.

It's just spreading a rumor, why do you have to use all these assassins?

At this point, Yinzhen had to admit that Concubine Yi was quite capable.

After a group of people were arrested, the rumors in the capital gradually subsided.

But Yinzhen had no intention of letting Concubine Yi and Yin'er go.

He didn't need evidence to deal with them.

There are many people following Yinzhen now, but who can guarantee that the hands of these ministers are clean?

Those who forcibly seized the people's land, those who forcibly abducted women, those who were corrupt, those who formed cliques for personal gain, those who sold illegal salt...

As long as you look carefully, you can always find a lot of things.
