Prince of the Qing Dynasty

Kangxi smiled, walked out of the hall slowly, walked up to Yinreng, stretched out his hand to Yinreng, and said with a smile: "Come on, get up."

Yinfeng could see Kangxi's expression clearly now, Kangxi didn't look angry, it should be said that apart from a smile in Kangxi's eyes, there was no ripple caused by what he just said.

Yinfeng and Kangxi looked at each other for a while before he stretched out his hand to hold Kangxi's hand and borrowed his strength.Although there was a smile in Kangxi's eyes, he also understood what Kangxi meant.Kangxi didn't say a word to his request, because he didn't want to discuss this matter in front of all his ministers and brothers.

After Yinfeng got up, Kangxi had already walked out, and stood side by side with him outside the Fengxian Hall. Then, as Yinfeng deduced, Kangxi smiled at him and used a voice that could be heard by everyone. Said: "I have already concluded the matter of Shamuha, and there is no need to investigate further. As for the matter of reducing the honor guard of your crown prince, I think it is unnecessary. You are the crown prince of the Qing Dynasty, and I set such a ceremony in the year you canonized." Why change it now?"

The emperor has made a decision, and others naturally have nothing to say.Yinfeng just looked at Kangxi silently after Kangxi finished speaking, and didn't continue to say his request.

After returning to Qianqing Palace, Kangxi sent everyone away, leaving Yinfeng alone in the room to talk.

After Kangxi returned to Qianqing Palace, he was obviously more relaxed than when he worshiped his ancestors in Fengxian Hall. Yinfeng felt that after he said those words, Kangxi seemed very happy, and Kangxi just took it off right now. Boots leaned on the couch and talked to him, just like an ordinary father in a common people's family.

"Yinfeng, who taught you these words today?" Kangxi opened his mouth, but he still smiled.

Yinfeng sat upright, and after hearing Kangxi's question, he replied without thinking: "Huang Ama, these are all my minister's thoughts."

Kangxi nodded, and said again: "You implore me to thoroughly investigate the matter of Shamuha, and also ask me to cut down your crown prince's ceremonial guard, do you know what it will mean once I agree?"

Yinfeng responded to Kangxi's question with silence. Of course he knew what the result meant, but he also knew that Kangxi didn't want to hear his answer when he asked such a question.

Sure enough, after a while, Kangxi spoke by himself: "At the beginning, it was Suo'etu who drafted the crown prince's ceremonial guard, and all the rules were compared with mine, and there were even some places that exceeded the rules, but at that time, I knew all of this. , but they all agree, what do you think I am for? I know Suo'etu's intentions, but it was not him, but you, Yinfeng. You are my most beloved son, and you are the Qing Prince, it is only right for me to give you these things, if I want others to respect and fear you, and truly treat you as the crown prince of the Qing Dynasty, I must give you power!"

"If I cut your crown prince's ceremonial guard, the punishment will not be Suo'etu, but you. What will be damaged will be the prestige of your crown prince, do you know? Others will think that you and I have a rift or Gap, if I cut down your crown prince's guard of honor at your request, everyone will think that I am suppressing you. Do you think, at this time, such speculation can make it happen? When you were a child, I I just spared no effort to stand up for you, now that you are about to get married and have grown up, how could I do something that would damage the majesty of your crown prince? Therefore, I will not grant your request."

Yinfeng lowered his eyes, remained silent for a while, and then said: "What Huang Ama said is, it's my son who didn't think about it."

Seeing Yinfeng like this, Kangxi sighed softly, shook his head, and said again: "I know what you're thinking. When you want me to thoroughly investigate the matter of Sha Muha, I will understand. What you care about is Suo'etu, right? I know what happened to Shamuha, it was Suo'etu who did it behind the scenes, and I didn't investigate the matter thoroughly, not to protect Suo'etu, but for you. Or that sentence, I didn't fulfill Suo'etu Ertu, I am helping you. Once a thorough investigation is done, there will be too many people involved, and I don’t want you to be implicated by Suo Ertu. You must know that your reputation has been very good these years, and I cannot , ruined you because of a Suo'etu. For your future and reputation, I would rather tolerate Suo'etu."

"Yinfeng, do you understand what I mean?"

Kangxi looked at Yinfeng firmly, "I still hope that Suo'etu's actions will not burden you, let alone bring you down. I hope that you will walk your way well and not be brought down by Suo'etu." It's fine if it's broken."

"I understand what Huang Ama said." Yinfeng paused, and then asked, "Huang Ama, what if, what if Suo'etu doesn't give up?"

After hearing this, Kangxi smiled slightly: "That's not your business. If Suo'etu goes too far, I will deal with him. At the right time, I will finish him, but not now."

"Maybe I will kill him, maybe I won't. It's impossible to say, but there is one thing, I will definitely not tolerate him in the future."

Although Kangxi was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes.

The last two sentences are, in essence, a warning from him to Yinfeng.In other words, it is advice in disguise.He was reminding Yinreng to keep a distance from Suo'etu.Even though he feels sorry for his son, he is still an emperor, and if the situation is out of his control, he will definitely take measures.

Suo'etu has spent a lot of effort to force him to abdicate in the past few years, and he has indeed considered it seriously, but Galdan is still alive, so he can't think of this matter without a result, and he can't talk about it because of his heart disease. The matter of abdication.Furthermore, he has always been merciful to Suo'etu. There are many reasons for this, but the most important point is that he believes that Yinfeng will not do such unfaithful and unfilial things with Suo'etu, so he Only then has been appeasement and tolerance.

Moreover, Yinfeng's performance today also let him know that his judgment was not wrong.He should trust Yinfeng.Moreover, Yinfeng didn't seem to really participate in these actions of Suo'etu.But at the same time, he was also afraid that Suo'etu would tempt Yinreng too much and make Yinreng tempted, so he had to issue a "warning".This also comes from the trust between father and son.

Of course Yinreng could hear Kangxi's implication, and he also understood that Kangxi's ability to say this meant that in Kangxi's heart, he had already determined that he had nothing to do with Suo'etu.

Yinfeng thought silently, this is enough.He only needed to get rid of the relationship with Suo'etu, and everything else could be done slowly.The situation now looks exactly the same as he originally expected.

After leaving Qianqing Palace, Yinreng prepared to go back to Yuqing Palace directly, but as soon as he left Qianqing Palace, he met Yinzhen at the base of the wall.

"Fourth brother, why are you here?"

Yinreng looked around, but he couldn't see anyone, but Yinzhen was here again. He thought about it, looked at Yinzhen who was approaching and said, "Fourth brother has been waiting for me?"

Yinzhen had indeed been waiting for Yinreng to come out at the base of the wall. Seeing Yinreng's question, he didn't hide it. He just nodded and asked in a low voice: "Second brother, are you okay? Is Huang Ama here?" scold you?"

Yinreng saw the worry in Yinzhen's eyes, smiled, and said, "Let's go, let's talk as we walk."

The Qianqingmen is not an open place to speak.

After walking far away, seeing no one around, Yinfeng smiled and said: "I'm fine, Huang Ama didn't scold me either. Huang Ama just told me the reason why he didn't grant my two requests. "

"Second brother, I don't understand, why do you say those things?"

Yinzhen said, "Didn't you say that you can't lose Suo'etu's support for you, let alone destroy Suo'etu, at least, you can't destroy him in your hands. But what you said today- —Second brother, you know that these two things were done by Suo Etu, why did you ask Huang Ama to investigate thoroughly?"

"In order to let Huang Ama strengthen his trust in me, and to keep his relationship with Suo'etu to protect myself, this is why I deliberately said these words in front of everyone in Fengxian Hall, because I know very well that Huang Ama will not agree to my request, let alone thoroughly investigate Shamuha's affairs, "

Yinfeng said, "I said that I can't lose Suo'etu's support for me, and I also said that I don't want to destroy Suo'etu. So, I just distanced myself from him. Fourth brother, you don't understand , I have been waiting for an appropriate time, waiting for an appropriate time to express my loyalty to Huang Ama, and to express my sincerity that I don't want to go with Suo'etu. However, such an opportunity can come across, but I can't ask for it. I must Make sure of two things when you say it, first, Huang Ama believes my words are true; second, after Huang Ama believes me, she must defend me in front of everyone as before."

"You also saw the scene today. This is the result I want."

Yinfeng looked at Yinzhen and smiled slightly: "Fourth brother, you have to know that I am not the one who can destroy Suo'etu, only Huang Ama can. If he wants to be dismissed, he will be dismissed, and if he wants to kill, he will kill. No one can compare He did it more thoroughly. I don't have that ability, but Huang Ama has. You know the saying of killing people with a knife, if Suo'etu goes too far, then he is violating me and Huang Ama at the same time. At this time, Huang Ama If Ma wants to destroy him, I will not stop him, on the contrary, I will be very happy. And have you ever thought that most of Suoetu's painstaking efforts to persecute Huang Ama are also for me, but Huang Ama It’s him who hates you, fourth brother, if you were Suo’etu, what would you do in the future? Would you stay close to Huang Ama who hated you and would kill you at any time, or would you stay close to Huang Ama who couldn’t kill you and bound you but just followed him? What about me who you disregarded?"

"Suo'etu is not stupid. He has no other way out. Even if I distance myself from him in front of everyone, he can no longer switch to Huang Ama. For now, he can only continue to choose to support me. If he If I want to continue to die, that's none of my business. It's icing on the cake that I have his support, if not, it's just a reminder that I should work harder, as far as I'm concerned, I won't lose too much."

After Yinzhen heard these words, he thought for a while before he came to his senses. He looked at Yinfeng and said, "Second Brother, I thought you wouldn't be able to get through this difficulty."

"It's not difficult for me, it's just a matter of thinking about it." Yinfeng smiled and said, "But Huang Ama, Huang Ama is actually very difficult."

Yinzhen didn't open his mouth, but said in his heart—Second brother, why aren't you in a difficult situation?
