The Love of the Red Chamber

After Kangxi finished dealing with the accumulated affairs of the past few days, he rubbed his sore neck and asked Li Dequan, who was waiting beside him, "Where is Xiao Yuer? Didn't I tell you to look like this? Why are you back again?" Li Dequan offered a cup of hot tea. : "The fourth elder brother took Miss Lin out for a walk. I was afraid that there would be no one to serve the Lord Long Live, so I asked the servant to come back."

Kangxi thought for a while and said with a funny smile: "Is it okay for Yinzhen to take Xiao Yu'er?"

Li Dequan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Long Live Lord. Fourth Master has always been a proper person. He has taken care of Thirteenth Master all these years. What's more, Miss Lin." Kangxi nodded in agreement, and sighed: "Fourth Master, Ever since his mother-in-law passed away, he has developed a cold temper, and he is someone who can take care of others. Sigh...I still...did him harm in the end." Li Dequan looked at Kangxi with some trepidation. Said: "The emperor is worrying too much. You are also doing it for the good of the fourth master. The empress must be happy that she is alive in the sky.

Kangxi was silent, Li Dequan didn't dare to speak anymore, he secretly scolded himself for talking too much, for saying wrong things even after being by the emperor's side for so many years.Over the years, the emperor can't help but lose his mind for a long time whenever he mentions the history, but now it's really..."Your majesty, it seems that it's time to pass on the meal."

Kangxi nodded, and said: "Go and ask the fourth child and Xiao Yuer to come over. Don't starve the girl. Later, that guy Lin Ruhai talked to me again."

"Yes, the slave will go here."

That night, an unknown number of pieces of porcelain and handkerchiefs were smashed in the entire palace.For no other reason, Yinzhen, the fourth son of Emperor Kangxi, had dinner with him.You know, the emperor gave the imperial meal to some of the princes and ministers who were extremely favored or relied on.But that was another seat given by the emperor, and the grace of having dinner with the emperor is rare even if he has been the crown prince for more than [-] years.Could it be that the emperor has suddenly changed his mind and valued the fourth elder brother?

Everyone's guesses and worries were completely wiped out the next day.It turned out that the emperor still didn't care about the fourth elder brother.Early the next morning, Li Dequan handed down one of the emperor's decrees, "Let's go back to Beijing immediately. The fourth son of the emperor, Yinzhen, will stay in Jiangnan to study for three years. No one is allowed to visit!" Li Dequan, who came to deliver the decree, paled With a gloomy face, everyone closed their mouths together, and wisely did not ask why the fourth elder brother was stranded in the south of the Yangtze River.They vaguely knew that the fourth elder brother might fall out of favor right now.

At this time, Yinzhen knelt motionless outside the emperor's bedroom.The upright back looks extremely lonely and lonely, but also has an indescribable stubbornness and firmness.Daiyu's small body leaned against Yinzhen's side, and Yinzhen knelt here all night, and she nestled next to him all night.Originally, she was going to kneel with him, but how could a five-year-old body bear it, but she was stubborn and refused to go back to rest, so Yinzhen had to have someone cover her with a thick cloak, and slept all night by herself .

Didn't sleep well all night, Daiyu looked tired, rubbed her eyes and asked, "Fourth brother, are you tired? Dai'er will accompany you." Yinzhen touched her little head and said softly: "Fourth brother, are you tired?" It's my lord, I'm not tired. Dai'er go back to rest, okay?" Daiyu shook her head, very insistent, "Dai'er will accompany fourth brother! Whenever the four of you rest, Dai'er will rest at any time." Yinzhen smiled bitterly, watching Daiyu's eyes were warm.People say that the king's heart is unpredictable, and being with you is like being with a tiger.Being in the royal family, his heart has long been icy cold, but last night, in the bone-chilling cold, this little person beside him was the only warmth in the world.

The door opened, Li Dequan came out and saw Daiyu who was kneeling next to Yinzhen, he was stunned for a moment, and hurried forward and said, "Miss Yu, Long Live Lord announced you to go in." Daiyu curled her mouth and turned her head, " Uncle Emperor is a bad person, so don't go. Dai'er wants to accompany fourth brother."

"This..." Li Dequan looked embarrassed, this little master really doesn't give face to anyone except Fourth Master, "Fourth Master, look at this..." Yinzhen pulled Dai Yu Going up to her, she said softly, "Dai'er, you are tired after a night of trouble. Go see Huang Ama and go back to rest. Don't let the fourth brother worry." Daiyu's face showed reluctance.Yinzhen said in a low voice: "If Dai'er is sick, I won't be able to accompany fourth brother." Li Dequan hurriedly followed: "Yes, Miss Yu. If you are sick, fourth master will take care of you. When the time comes, Lord Long Live will not I'm going to punish Fourth Master, and I'm afraid Fourth Master won't be able to rest well." Daiyu looked at Yinzhen and then at Li Dequan, smiled aggrievedly, and followed Li Dequan away strangely.

Early in the morning, as soon as Kangxi got up, he began to read the memorial delivered last night.After watching for a while, Kangxi glanced at the little man by the door, who was waiting for him with bright eyes, and had no intention of coming over at all.Looking at the somewhat pale face, Kangxi's eyes flashed a hint of distress and helplessness.This little girl, at such a young age, seems to be full of Lin Ruhai's stubborn temper.Putting down his pen, Kangxi smiled and said, "Yu'er, come to Uncle."

"Hmph!" Daiyu turned her small face to one side with great ambition, and ignored him.

Kangxi laughed, shook his head and coaxed: "Girl, when you come here, uncle will tell you why the fourth child is punished." Daiyu blinked her eyes, and moved over step by step.Kangxi picked up Daiyu and put it on his lap, Daiyu struggled unhappily, she didn't like anyone other than her father, mother and fourth brother to hug her.Kangxi hugged Daiyu and looked up at the straight figure kneeling outside, and sighed insignificantly.He can see the people kneeling outside here, but the people kneeling outside cannot see here.Daiyu naturally saw it too, and then hummed to Kangxi, ignoring him!

"Is Xiao Yu'er blaming me for punishing the fourth child?"

Daiyu said: "Fourth brother didn't make any mistakes!" Dad said that if he made a mistake, he should be punished, and fourth brother was right. It is wrong for the emperor's uncle to punish fourth brother

Kangxi laughed and said, "How do you know he didn't make a mistake?" Daiyu turned her head and stared at him with her neck up, "Fourth brother is the best, how could he make a mistake!" Kangxi sighed lightly, and said to Daiyu, "You are still young. I don't understand. Sometimes it is not necessary to punish him only for making mistakes. Sometimes... punishing him does not mean that he does not love him." Xiao Daiyu looked at him suspiciously, her eyes full of puzzlement.Why should you be punished if you didn't make a mistake?Is the emperor's uncle saying that he loves the fourth brother very much?Daddy wouldn't love her like that.

Knowing that she didn't understand, Kangxi didn't explain.Just asked: "Does Xiao Yuer like fourth brother?"

Daiyu nodded, Fourth Brother treated her very well.She also has to be good to the fourth brother.Kangxi said: "The fourth brother stays in Jiangnan, can you stay with him?" Daiyu wrinkled her nose and said, "Fourth brother doesn't seem to like staying in Jiangnan." Just now when Eunuch Li came to announce the decree, the fourth brother seemed very sad look.Kangxi said: "That's why I want you to accompany him. If you always accompany him and make him happy, he will naturally be willing to stay in Jiangnan."

Daiyu nodded obediently.Kangxi glanced outside the door, and said to Daiyu: "Little Yuer, go back and tell your father that I have given my son to him. And you, help me take good care of Zhen'er." Daiyu nodded, Looking at Kangxi, my heart is full of confusion.But that intelligent heart faintly felt that the emperor's uncle really loved the fourth brother.

Li Dequan came over and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's time to leave."

Kangxi picked up Daiyu and said, "Yuwa, give me a ride." After speaking, he picked up Daiyu and walked out the door.Walking to the door and seeing Yinzhen kneeling there, he didn't say anything, but stopped for a moment, and then walked outside.Only a bright yellow back is left.

Yinzhen knelt in the courtyard alone.The emperor's departure also took away all the guards and maids, and there was no sound in the courtyard.It was time for Yinzhen to get up after the emperor left, but at this moment he didn't have the slightest thought of getting up.I kept thinking back to Kangxi's words last night, "As a prince, you can't be happy and angry, and you will definitely not be a great weapon in the future!" Yinzhen smiled wryly. It wasn't just this time that he was scolded by Huang Ama, but it was only this time. The heaviest but without reason.Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, this is the royal family.

A pair of warm little hands grabbed his hand, Yinzhen raised his eyes and looked into Daiyu's clear eyes, "Fourth brother, a letter from Uncle Emperor."
