Prince of the Qing Dynasty

Kangxi never drank alcohol, and only drank a few sips every year when he gave a banquet in the first lunar month.But the wine he drank was specially made and not intoxicating.

For example, the peach blossom wine that Yinzhen brought over is one of the special wines ordered by Kangxi.

"You—" Hearing this, Yinfeng really didn't know what to say to Yinzhen. He took the small wine jar, opened the wine seal and sniffed it slightly, the smell was really strong The fragrance of the wine, he resealed the wine seal and asked Yinzhen, "Have you tasted it secretly?"

Kangxi himself didn't like drinking, and his brothers were underage, so he naturally forbade them to drink secretly.Even Yinti, Kangxi didn't allow him to smell the wine. If Kangxi found out that Yinzhen stole the special imperial wine, he would be scolded at least.

When Yinzhen heard this, she smiled embarrassedly: "I took a sip when I stole it, it's so spicy! It's not sweet or intoxicating as they say, and I don't think it tastes good at all! "

Yinfeng knew this was the case, holding the small wine jar and asked again: "So, you didn't bring this jar of wine for me specially, did you?"

Yinzhen didn't dare to look at Yinfeng anymore, turned his head to look at the snow in the yard, hesitated for a long time before saying in a low voice: "...No. I was curious about Huang Ama's wine, and I saw that Huang Ama rewarded Tong Eniang better , I quietly took out a jar of wine, intending to taste it, but it didn’t taste good at all. But it’s definitely not good to take it back and store it. The third brother gave me an idea that I can give this jar of wine to the second brother , so that even if Tong Eniang finds out, she can't scold me, because I can say that I gave the wine to my second brother."

Both he and Yinzhi felt that the wine was terrible. After thinking about it, the two brothers couldn't handle it.It is absolutely impossible to put it back again, so Yinzhi gave him this idea.

He thought about it at the time, and felt that Yinzhi's idea was very good. Anyway, Tong Eniang had always been full of praise for the second brother. Even if he knew that he didn't really give the wine to the second brother, even if he knew that he secretly took it out to taste. Yes, as long as the wine ends up with the second brother, Tong Eniang can't scold him anymore.

Without waiting for Yinreng to answer, Yinzhen pursed his lips and turned to look at Yinreng, and said earnestly: "I really want to give my second brother a New Year gift and a thank you gift, but I haven't been able to choose what to give to my second brother. Hearing what the third brother said, I thought it would be appropriate to give this wine as a gift. Although the second brother can't drink alcohol now, it's good to drink it after a few years. I heard that the longer the wine ages, the better it will be!"

"Yinzhi also stole wine with you? Then why didn't he come?"

Yinreng couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, he held the wine jar for a while, and then smiled, "It's also fortunate that you have my second brother here, if you don't have me, who will take the blame for you?"

"Tell me, it's good, why do you suddenly want to give me a New Year's gift and something to thank you? Why didn't I see you thinking about it during the New Year last year?"

"Because the second brother helped me a lot, and the last time, I listened to the second brother and told Tong Erniang when I went back. Tong Erniang and I are doing well now, and this is all thanks to the second brother. Tong Erniang said, second elder brother helped me like this, because I thanked second elder brother very much, "

Yinzhen laughed again, "Third brother didn't dare to come, he said that if second brother knew that he came up with this idea, he would definitely scold him. I said I wasn't afraid, so I didn't ask him to come, I sent it myself Come! I know, even if the second brother knows the truth, he will never scold me, right?"

"Since it's your wish, then I don't care how this wine came from. I just accept it. It's a coincidence that if you really want to thank me, I'm afraid I wouldn't like to send you something else. You brought the wine, it suits my heart!"

Yinfeng laughed and said, "Although you can't drink now, you will be able to drink one day! In the future, when you brothers are all grown up, I will drink this bar with you!"

In the summer, Yinreng still thought that if he had a confidant who drank alcohol, it would only be possible when the winter came, and someone really delivered wine to his door.

He is still young at the moment, although he can't drink, it doesn't prevent him from being happy, and when he gets excited, he will raise his voice and call for someone to seal the wine that Yinzhen sent and bury it under the garden tree until Yinzhen When it is long enough, open it up and drink it.

Seeing that Yinfeng was very interested, Mrs. Gu didn't dare to find out how the wine came from. Fortunately, the crown prince didn't clamor for a drink, so she called two young eunuchs to carry the wine jar to dig under the biggest tree in the courtyard. Buried wine.

Yinzhen followed to watch the excitement, Yinreng was still standing in the porch with his black cloak around them watching their commotion, seeing the white ground covered with messy footprints, he couldn't help feeling sorry for him: "They should also Be careful, you will trample the snow here!"

Mrs. Gu laughed at the side: "You are already very careful! The crown prince just let them go. See, the sky doesn't mean to clear up. Anyway, there are still a few snowfalls to come. When it does, it will still be white all over the place! "

Yinfeng was relieved when he heard that there was still snow.

Just staring at Yinzhen who was yelling and directing the little eunuch to dig a hole, seeing the bright smile on his rosy face, and remembering the appearance of Yinzhen when he came to him with a sad face in summer to complain about his woes. Also laughed.

He didn't expect that he was just making a suggestion, how could he have thought that Yinzhen would really find an opportunity to have a showdown with the imperial concubine.And the result after the showdown was also very good.

After Yinzhen communicated with the imperial concubine, his knots were completely resolved, and he and the imperial concubine became closer and closer, and the imperial concubine treated him better and better, just like a pair of biological mother and son.Whenever Yinreng sees Yinzhen talking about Tong Eniang, he always smiles.On the contrary, Concubine De and Yinzuo gradually talked less in Yinzhen's mouth.

According to Yinzhen, he also told the imperial concubine the whole matter, and he told the imperial concubine that the prince gave him the idea.The imperial concubine didn't say much, but sent him a lot of things on the second day with an excuse.This is an unexpected result for Yinreng, he did not expect him to relieve Yinzhen's knot, but unexpectedly won the favor of the imperial concubine.

Probably, it was also for this reason that Yinzhen was grateful to him, and the saying of thanking him also came from here.

Who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes, the jar of wine was never buried until Yinzhen's time, and it was dug out even less than eighteen days after it was buried under the tree.

When Yinreng got the news, it was just when he was about to leave school in Maoqin Hall.

"What did you say?!"

Yinfeng glared at the little eunuch who came to deliver the letter and said, "Si elder brother ran to Yuqing Palace and dug out the jar of wine and drank it? When did this happen? Why didn't you come and tell me earlier? Si elder brother is not Should I study in the upper study room? Why did I go to Yuqing Palace? Please make it clear!"

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "Back, back to the crown prince, this happened just now. The fourth elder brother didn't say anything when he came to Yuqing Palace. He rushed in and dug out the wine under the tree. The servants haven't heard anything yet. Before I had time to stop it, the fourth elder brother drank up the jar of wine!"

Seeing that something was wrong, the little eunuch rushed to Maoqin Hall to report the news, but he didn't know what happened.When Yinreng asked, he couldn't find out why, so he didn't waste time in Maoqin Palace, and immediately rushed to Yuqing Palace.

When they arrived at Yuqing Palace, they saw Mrs. Gu anxiously guarding outside. When he saw him coming back, his eyes lit up, obviously waiting for him to come back.

"Nurse, what's the matter?"

The Gu family entered the palace gate together with Yinfeng, and then said: "Prince, I just got the news that the princess of the imperial concubine died."

Yinrong was startled: "Why?"

"The imperial doctor said that the womb was too weak, and it was not good when it was born. After a few days of recuperation, it was because the body was too weak, and the weather was too cold, so it just passed away."

Mrs. Gu sighed, and then said in a low voice, "Prince, I reckon that the fourth elder brother came to us to dig for wine and drink because of this. When the fourth elder brother came, something was wrong. , no one was allowed to approach at all, the small altar of wine was drunk within a few sips, I didn't dare to disturb him, I didn't dare to say anything, and I didn't dare to tell anyone, I just ordered the little eunuch to quietly go to the Maoqin Palace to find the prince Grandpa is back. It is up to the crown prince to decide what will happen. At this moment, I am afraid that the imperial concubine will not be able to take care of the fourth elder brother."

Yinfeng and his party heard what Gu said, and they looked under the tree in the courtyard. There was a smashed empty wine jar and a pile of messy soil that had been dug up. Yinfeng sniffed it lightly. A strong bouquet that has not dissipated.

"Where are the people who followed the fourth elder brother? Didn't they follow?"

Yinfeng asked a question, and frowned when Gu Shi shook his head. The party walked inside, and the party asked Gu Shi again, "Have Si elder brothers drunk hangover soup?"

As soon as these words came out, Yinreng waited for a long time but did not get an answer from Gu Shi. He paused, turned his head and looked at Gu Shi in doubt, but saw Gu Shi standing there, hesitated for a long time before saying: "Prince, the fourth elder brother is not No one is allowed to get close to him, the servant has tried a few times, and the elder brother refuses to drink anything. The slave has no choice but dare not force him, so he has to let the elder brother go."

After hearing this, Yinreng sighed in his heart, and said: "Go and prepare a bowl of hangover soup, the thicker the better, then go to the imperial hospital to find an imperial doctor, and prepare it outside, I'm afraid that the fourth elder brother can't hold the alcohol I'm sick. You don't have to go in, I'll ask you all to come in after he recovers."

Mrs. Gu left without hesitation, and said hesitantly: "Prince, can this be done? There is such a big commotion, if the troublesome emperor knows about it, how good it is?"

The reason why she didn't dare to say anything was because she was afraid that the emperor would blame the prince for hiding wine if he found out.

Yinfeng said: "Nurse, I know what you mean. But how can I care about those now? Besides, this matter cannot be hidden from Huang Ama. The fourth elder brother should be studying in the study room at the moment. I guess he is When he got the news, he ran over desperately. If I guessed correctly, he should have gone to see Little Gege. You said, how could it be possible that Huang Ama didn’t know that he made such a big commotion? It's not that I should hide it from Huang Ama, but I'm worried about the fourth elder brother's body. If he is allowed to torment like this, he will definitely get sick! Therefore, the imperial doctor is indispensable. If something happens, the emperor will How can the imperial concubine bear it?"

After thinking about it, Gu also felt that what Yinfeng said was very reasonable, so she hurriedly prepared to go.

Yinfeng didn't enter the room, but called Shi Mo again, and said: "You are always smart, go out and find out who told the fourth elder brother the news of Xiao Gege's death, and then inquire again, before the fourth elder brother came here , where else have you been?"

Brothers are studying in the study room, so it is logical that they cannot get news from outside, even if there is news, they will only get it after school is over.He wanted to know who actually disclosed the news to Yinzhen.If this person is really uneasy and kind, he guessed that there are probably only a few people who are uneasy and kind.

Then he ordered the piano sweeper: "You wait outside. If necessary, you can come in as soon as I call you."

After saying that, Yinreng went into the house to see Yinzhen.
