Prince of the Qing Dynasty

After Yinxiang heard this, he was not as straightforward as before, he hesitated for a long time before opening his mouth and said: "When I was in Suzhou, Huang Ama didn't go to Yangzhou, so the officials of Yangzhou and the salt merchants chose a few women together. When I came up with the offer, Huang Ama and the eldest brother and the third brother all accepted it, but the prince did not accept the woman. The people in Yangzhou did not give up. Later we all set off, and the other end gave away several pieces to the prince in private. The people came back, but the prince still didn’t accept it.”

Yin Zhen raised his eyebrows, feeling incredible: "Huang Ama is angry because of this? It's impossible!"

He vaguely knew about giving away people, but Yinzhen felt that even if Yinreng did not accept the people sent by Yangzhou salt merchants, it would not make Kangxi angry.

"Huang Ama is not angry because of this, I guess Huang Ama is because of other things," Yinxiang said hurriedly, "Actually, fourth brother doesn't know, when we get to Dezhou, there will be some strange things Good rumors spread in the south of the Yangtze River, and I can hear them in Dezhou. It is said that the elder brother of the prince does not want the people sent by the salt merchants in Yangzhou because the elder brother of the prince does not like women, he likes men, so he does not want those women sent. There are rumors that the elder brother of the crown prince likes handsome young men like Dezhu the most. Therefore, during the southern tour, the elder brother of the crown prince did not bring anyone to serve him, but he always brought Dezhu with him because he and Dezhu There is a special relationship between Dezhu."

"So, I thought, I can hear these rumors, let alone Huang Ama? Huang Ama must have heard these words, so she was angry with the prince brother, and the prince brother refused to change, and the empress Ama can only pretend that the prince's brother is sick, so that the prince's brother can reflect in Dezhou, and then ask Suo'etu to persuade the prince's brother to give up this habit."

Yinxiang pieced together a complete brain hole based on his own guesses, and thought he had captured the truth of the matter.

"What nonsense!"

Yinzhen felt that Yinxiang was talking nonsense, "These rumors are all nonsense, how can you believe them? You still say something so real? Could it be that the prince is really that kind of person in your heart ?"

As soon as these words were heard, someone deliberately made them up to confuse the public. Yinzhen never thought that Yinxiang would believe them.How could a person as glamorous as the prince have such a habit?What's more, the relationship between the crown prince and De Zhu is innocent, and he has noticed it all these years, which is nothing at all!

Yinzhen stared at Yinxiang. In the past, he always felt that Yinxiang was very smart and excelled at everything, so he cultivated him wholeheartedly, just like the prince cultivated him in the past, hoping that Yinxiang could become himself and the prince in the future. Her right-hand man, but now she never expected that Yin Xiang would be such a person who easily believed in rumors.

He was thinking, is it because Yinxiang is too young to know the dangers of the world, or is it because his perception of the prince is totally different from what he thinks?

Seeing Yinzhen staring at him, Yinxiang felt the oppression from the eyes of the fourth brother, he swallowed his saliva, and said: "Fourth brother, don't be angry, this is just my guess, maybe the truth is not like that It's also unknown."

Seeing Yinzhen defending the prince like this, Yinxiang didn't dare to say some things.

The thoughts in his heart are really different from what Yinzhen said.

How diligent and hard the prince has been these years, since he was sensible, he also knows and sees it.However, he doesn't believe that there are perfect people in this world. He thinks that the fourth brother can't see these things because he is too close to the prince.

The prince didn't have it before, or he hid it well. Now that there are such rumors, it means that it is not groundless. Maybe the prince really has such an unknown hobby?Yinxiang felt that he was still skeptical about this, and he could not trust the prince 100% like the fourth brother.

It's just that he found that the relationship between the prince and the fourth brother seems to be very deep. The fourth brother can't tolerate him saying that the prince is not good. Convinced by Yinzhen.Yinxiang thought silently, maybe the time has not come yet, in the future, when the prince's true face is revealed, the fourth brother will see everything clearly, and then, he may be able to tell the fourth brother what he really thinks in his heart.

Yinzhen didn't know Yinxiang's thoughts at all, he looked at Yinxiang and said in a deep voice: "Thirteenth brother, it will not do you any good to speculate on this matter. You shouldn't have such thoughts anymore. This matter It should be someone with a heart spreading rumors behind his back. Although I don't know who it is, I will check it out. Don't tell anyone about these things. Otherwise, if Huang Ama finds out that she is angry, she will also It is inevitable that I will reprimand you."

What Yinzhen said at the end was reasonable, Yinxiang finally nodded and said: "Fourth brother is right, I listen to fourth brother."

In the end, Yinxiang said a bunch of useless words, but Yinzhen still couldn't find out the desired result from him, but there was one more thing, although such rumors would not be taken seriously by Yinreng Thoughtful, but Yinzhen thought, besides preparing for that big event, if he still has the energy to spare, he still needs to find out who made these rumors.

Not to mention Yinzhen's busy work in the capital, but to say that the day Kangxi arrived in the capital was exactly when Suo'etu arrived in Dezhou.

When Suo'etu received Kangxi's decree, he set out on the road with light clothes and simple clothes. Yinfeng was seriously ill in Dezhou, and he was very worried, so he rushed as much as he could on this journey, and he didn't dare to delay. He arrived without much rest along the way. Texas.

Because of his impatience, Suo'etu rode his horse until the middle gate of the crown prince's residence before dismounting, and then he was led to see the crown prince.In his haste, Suo'etu didn't notice that there were many soldiers in front of the gate, and after he entered, someone closed the gate immediately.

As soon as Dezhu saw Suo'etu coming, he immediately went into the house and reported to Yinrong: "Prince, Mr. Suo is here!"

Dezhou is extremely hot, and it's the time when the heat is at its peak. Yinfeng doesn't go out, so he only wears white clothes. There are ice cubes placed in the four corners of the room, and he practices calligraphy quietly in the coolness of the room.

Just as he was about to write, he heard De Zhu's voice, the hand holding the brush shook, and a large piece of ink dripped on the rice paper like that, and he fainted.

As soon as De Zhu finished speaking, Suo'etu outside couldn't wait to answer, so he rushed in. He was worried about Yinfeng's illness, so as soon as he came in, Suo'etu's eyes scanned the room , eager to find the whereabouts of Yinfeng.

When the eyes of Yinfeng and Suo'etu met, Suo'etu was obviously taken aback, but he didn't react for a while.

Until Yinfeng smiled slightly, and shouted at Suo'etu: "Uncle, grandpa, you are here."

It wasn't until this time that Suo'etu reacted, but he was full of puzzlement: "Prince, are you not sick?"

The situation was not as Suo'etu imagined, but the real situation he saw surprised him so much that he even forgot to ask for peace.

"Grandpa, sit down." Yinfeng has been detained in this courtyard since Kangxi left. The people he sees every day are those regular people except Dezhu. Now that Suo'etu is here, he can Yinfeng was very happy to talk with him, he smiled at Suo'etu, and said, "Uncle and grandpa have worked hard all the way here, now that we're here, let's take a rest."

Seeing Suo'etu's expression, Yinreng actually wanted to explain to Suo'etu, but he felt that it was not the time yet, and he could only explain to Suo'etu when the time came.

Suo'etu was not polite either, he found a place to sit down directly, took a cup of tea in his hand, took a sip and then looked at Yinfeng and said: "Should the prince explain to the old minister what is going on in this situation?" What's going on?"

As soon as he heard the news of Yinreng's serious illness, he rushed to Dezhou, but he came to see that Yinreng was living here well. Although Suo'etu had doubts in his heart, he also instinctively felt the bad atmosphere.

Yinfeng smiled and said: "Grandpa, let's drink tea. The tea here is pretty good. Grandpa, please stay here for a few days, and when the news arrives, grandpa will naturally understand what's going on. According to the rules, I can't say anything. Besides, the scenery here is pleasant and it is very comfortable to live in. My uncle and grandpa should cherish it. However, there are soldiers guarding outside. If you can't go out, if you want to take a walk, you can only stay in this yard."

Yinfeng avoided answering Suo'etu's question, but Suo'etu frowned. He was displeased, so he put down the teacup with a snap, stood up and said, "Is the prince playing with the old minister?" !"

After saying that, Suo'etu walked away immediately full of displeasure.He didn't believe it, was he really under house arrest in this courtyard as the prince said?

Since the crown prince refuses to say it, then he will find the answer by himself!

Looking at Suo'etu's fleeing figure, Yin Reng stopped De Zhu who was about to chase him: "You don't have to chase, and you can't stop grandpa. Some things have to be seen by grandpa himself." Good to see."

"Prince, I am afraid that Master Suo will resent the prince after knowing the truth." As Yinfeng's personal eunuch, De Zhu understands all these things, and it is precisely because he is an understanding bystander, and As the prince's personal eunuch, De Zhu actually didn't want Suo Etu to misunderstand the prince, "In fact, the slave knows it. The prince is feeling uncomfortable these days, and the slave doesn't want Mr. Suo to misunderstand the prince."

De Zhu still felt that the emperor's action was too harsh on the prince, and he complained for the prince, but De Zhu never dared to say this.

When Yinreng heard this, he smiled slightly and ignored Dezhu's words.

De Zhu pursed his lips, glanced at Yinfeng, and said again: "Slave, will you change a piece of paper for the crown prince?"

There was a large ink blot on the rice paper just now, it was already stained, obviously it can't be used anymore.

Yinfeng put down his pen with a smile on his face, and said, "No need, anyway, I'm not in the mood to write any more."

If Suo'etu knew the truth, he would definitely resent him in his heart, and he didn't care if Suo'etu misunderstood him.Because since he chose to cooperate with Kangxi, it shows that he has no way out.Regardless of the outcome, he had to keep going.

However, even if he knew this, it didn't mean that he didn't feel anything in his heart. After all, Suo'etu was his uncle, who was related by blood. If he wanted to cooperate with Kangxi to kill relatives, how could he not feel at all?

It's just that there are so many complicated feelings in his heart that no one can say here.

Since that year in front of Fengxian Hall, when he made a statement to draw a line with Suo'etu, he won Kangxi's short-term trust. After that, the expansion of the power of the prince, whether it was from his instruction or not, made Kangxi aroused. Suspicion, coupled with the instigation of interested people in front of Kangxi, Kangxi's trust in him has become less and less, and now, Kangxi has begun to cut off his wings to preserve the imperial power.

Constantly probing and being cautious in everything, between Kangxi and him, the affection between father and son is far less than the jealousy of monarchs and ministers.

Under the imperial power, he didn't care if he didn't care about the father-son relationship that had been cultivated for decades. He didn't know how Kangxi felt. Anyway, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

It's a pain I've never felt before.Knowing that this person will be at odds with him in the future because of the imperial power and even destroy his future and life, but still give his trust and try his best to do his best without hesitation.

It's a pity that he retreated step by step, and Kangxi still couldn't tolerate him having the slightest power and influence.Once there is any trouble, Kangxi will suppress it.

In fact, he is more aware of these contradictions and conflicts than Kangxi, but he still can't say it before the time comes.Because once it is said, it will either return to the harmony between father and son in the past, or he will kill himself and ruin his future.

Because in his opinion, it was a mistake to establish the crown prince clearly and not restrict the crown prince's storage of power, and even Kangxi was so arrogant and indulgent to the crown prince.However, history is without ifs.

The crown prince has been established, and the power reserve has been established. Even if he tries his best to avoid history, he can't get out of this vicious circle.After all, different routes lead to the same goal.

The overthrow of Suo'etu is proof that there is really no way to change the result if some things are done with all their strength.So what about the traveler, the torrent of history rolls away, a traveler will be absorbed and swallowed in it sooner or later, so what about being unconventional?Can one person really change history?

He had thought from the very beginning that he would join forces with Suo'etu, Suo'etu would protect him, and he would keep Suo'etu, and the future would be invincible.How can there be those turmoil in the future?It's a pity that he is not the prince in history, but Suo'etu is still the Suo'etu in history.

Suo'etu failed to bring him down, but in order to keep himself and let Kangxi continue to trust him and not doubt him, he chose to cooperate with Kangxi and get rid of Suo'etu.

This taste is really uncomfortable.

However, it is impossible for him to disobey orders for Suo'etu. After weighing the two, he can only do so.Under the imperial power, amidst the undercurrents, how many lives have been sacrificed in these years?

He had told Yinzhen at the beginning that drawing a clear line with Suo'etu was to push Suo'etu to his side.At that time, he did not express his deepest thoughts. Once Suo'etu leaned towards him, he would not be far from death.Because once Kangxi does not tolerate Suo'etu, Suo'etu will only die.

This is the final result of the courtiers who unequivocally turned to the prince's line while the emperor was still alive.

He knew everything, but he did it anyway.Not for anything else, he just wanted to earn himself a way out on this thorny road.

Everything he does is for this purpose.

He made the worst plans and preparations, but risked his life and tried his best to plan and arrange. He has the awareness that he may overturn everything at any time, but he keeps calm and calm all the time. This is nothing more than because, although his heart is desperate, But never lost hope.
