Qing Dynasty Chronicle

"Today, Yinfeng violated the law of the ancestors, did not follow my training, but ravaged the people, was violent and promiscuous, and it was hard to say anything. I have tolerated it for 20 years. But its evil has become more and more serious. It has humiliated the kings and officials of Baylor in the court, and is good at authority. Gathering party feathers, spying on my boss, daily activities, all prying..."

"What's more different is that Yi approached Putrajaya every night, peeking in from the cracks. In the past, Suo'etu helped Yi to plot a big event, and I knew about it, so I executed Suo'etu. Now Yinfeng wants to avenge Suo'etu , formed a party member, so that I don't know if I will be poisoned today and killed tomorrow, and I will be on guard day and night. How can people like this pay their ancestors to promote their careers..."

"Taizu, Taizong, and Shizu worked hard to create and rule the world with me, and we must not pay this person. When we return to Beijing, we will announce it to the Tiandi Ancestral Temple, and Yinfeng will be abolished..."

All the words were said through Kangxi's mouth, and all the people present were either trembling or ecstatic in their hearts, but Yinzhen watched all this happen with cold eyes as if his soul had come out of his body.

Seeing Kangxi's sad old tears falling down and sitting on the ground, watching all the ministers crying with Kangxi, watching Yinyi almost unable to hold his own expression and about to laugh out loud, looking at the kneeling figure in front of him Straight, motionless, as if none of this had anything to do with him.

In the end, Yinzhen was completely numb, and Yinfei heard Kangxi say, "I ordered Yinzhen, the king of Zhijun, to protect me well, and I didn't intend to make Yinfei the crown prince."Yinfeng is irritable, stubborn and stupid, how can he stand as the crown prince? His expression froze until the end and his face was almost distorted. He didn't see it, and he didn't see it when Kangxi dealt with Yinreng's party members. In the end, all Ah Brother, including himself, was temporarily detained by Kangxi and Yinzhen was also indifferent. He was passively brought to the camp by the little eunuch, and then shrank on the couch and wrapped himself in a quilt, trembling.

Such a big event happened suddenly, and everyone couldn't help feeling a little flustered. Sun Dongxi was even more frightened seeing his master's distraught appearance.

This day, Sun Dongxi just took Yinzhen's uneaten food away, and as soon as he walked to the door of the tent, he saw Liang Jiugong walking towards him. Sun Dongxi was shocked, and he didn't know what happened again, but he still hurried Handing the plate in his hand to someone else, he quickly went up to greet him respectfully and said, "Master, how are you doing these days?"

Liang Jiugong smiled politely, "Masters, let us be slaves." Before Sun Dongxi could speak, Liang Jiugong asked again, "Is your master in the tent?"

"Ah, yes." Sun Dongxi hesitated for a moment, "I don't know, why is Master looking for our master..."

Before Sun Dongxi finished speaking, Liang Jiugong interrupted him. He looked at Sun Dongxi with a smile that was not a smile, "How can you inquire about the master's affairs?"

"It's a slave who has become more disciplined." Sun Dongxi's heart trembled, and he quickly lowered his head and said.

Liang Jiugong didn't say any more, but walked past Sun Dongxi to the front of the tent and asked, "Is Brother Fourteen inside?"

Yinzhen, who was in a trance in the tent, heard the voice from outside the tent, frowned, got up and walked over to open the tent, and saw Liang Jiugong with a polite smile, "Eunuch Liang?"

"My slave pays respects to Brother Fourteen." Liang Jiugong slapped him a thousand times before expressing his intentions, "I am following the emperor's order to call Fourteenth Brother to see you."

"Khan Ama wants to see me?" Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, then asked again, "Do you know what's going on?"

Liang Jiugong shook his head, "The master didn't say anything, he just ordered the slaves to come and invite Brother Fourteen to come over."

Yinzhen thought for a while and nodded, "Got it, let's go." Then he glanced at Sun Dongxi again, "Don't follow, wait for me here."

Sun Dongxi met Liang Jiugong's eyes, then lowered his head, "Hey."

Yinzhen and Liang Jiugong walked one after the other on the tent road to Kangxi. On the way, Yinzhen turned sideways and asked Liang Jiugong, "Eunuch Liang, how is Khan Ama these few days?"

Originally, it was reasonable to say that Yinzhen's question was a suspicion of spying on Shenggong, but thinking about the tone of Kangxi's speech to him before he came, Liang Jiugong decided to sell this favor to Yinzhen, stepped forward half a step forward and said in a low voice, "such a thing happened Son, the master is also sad, eats little, and sleeps not very well. The servant is distressed and anxious, but there is nothing to do, I just hope that the fourteenth elder brother can persuade the emperor well when he sees the emperor."

That's right, to personally abolish the crown prince whom he spent so much effort to cultivate, to Kangxi, it is tantamount to cutting out his heart, how can he not be sad.Yinzhen hummed and didn't say anything more.

Knowing that Kangxi was sad, but when he actually saw Kangxi, Yinzhen realized firsthand how much the deposed Yinreng dealt to Kangxi.

Yinzhen looked at Kangxi, who was old and now, and found that Yinsi's eyes were a little cloudy, and he was stunned, and he even forgot to greet him.

Seeing Yinzhen's gaffe, Liang Jiugong had to remind him in a low voice, "Brother Fourteen, please greet the emperor quickly."

After being reminded by Liang Jiugong, Yinzhen came back to his senses, stepped forward a few steps unsteadily, and knelt down, "My son Yinzhen greets Khan Ama, Khan Ama and Khan Ama are auspicious."

"Hmm... Fourteen is here?" Kangxi's voice was exhausted and old, "Get up." When Yinzhen stood up, he waved to him again, "Come, come to me."

"Hey." Yinzhen responded and walked to Kangxi's side.

Kangxi took Yinzhen's hand and sat down beside him, looked at her for a long time, frowned and said, "Why did you lose so much weight? Is it because you feel unwell?"

Yinzhen's gaze stayed on Kangxi's slightly trembling hand, and he couldn't hold it back for a while, and tears fell on Kangxi's hand.

Yinzhen's cry made Kangxi stunned for a moment, and then raised his hand to wipe Yinzhen's tears, "What's wrong with my fourteenth? What wronged you? Who bullied you? Tell Khan Ama, Khan Ama will support you!"

Kangxi's words made Yinzhen cry even more fiercely. Once upon a time, there was a person who said similar words to him, but now that person fell from the clouds into the mud, and this one was so sad because of that person. At this point, Yinzhen only feels that the world is impermanent and God's will is tricking people. After traveling for so many years, he feels that living is much more tiring than the 19 years in later generations combined.

Kangxi saw that Yinzhen was just crying silently and didn't speak, so he didn't ask any more questions. It was like when Yinzhen fell and sat there crying alone when he saw him, he took Yinzhen over and patted him gently. Yinzhen's shoulder, "Okay, Fourteen Mo cried, Khan Ama didn't bring candy with her today. You're so old, I'm afraid you don't like candy, but even if you have all kinds of grievances, you can sweat Amma is here..."

Kangxi patted Yinzhen up and down, and said comforting words vaguely in his mouth, but Yinzhen stopped crying slowly, sat up from Kangxi's arms, turned his face sideways and wiped his tears, and looked at Kangxi with some embarrassment. Said, "Tell Khan Ama to watch the joke."

Kangxi wanted to laugh, but felt that he was really not in the mood, so he just patted Yinzhen's hand, "I've seen you make a fool of yourself since you were a child."

Yinzhen pursed her lips and looked at Kangxi, "I don't know if Khan Ama summoned my son, what should I tell my son to do?"

Kangxi shook his head, "It's nothing, I just asked you to come over and chat with me. In the past few days, I haven't been able to sleep well every night, and sometimes I feel like I see Mama and Aunt Su Ma in a daze. They seem to want to say something to me, but I want to listen carefully, but I can't hear clearly. But I think Mama and Erniang look bad." Speaking of this, Kangxi's expression was a little sad and uneasy, " Fourteenth, do you think Mama and Erniang are blaming me? Blame me for not being able to teach a son well, for disgracing the Aixinjueluo family, and being ashamed of my ancestors."

"No." Yinzhen felt that Kangxi's hands were shaking even more, and quickly said, "That's not the case. I feel that the ancestor and Su Ma's mother came to tell Khan Ama that the eighteenth brother has gone. By their side, they will take good care of them so that Ama Khan will not worry."

"Really?" Kangxi was like an ordinary old father who lost his son at this time, longing to believe and doubting such comforting words.

"It must be like this." Yinzhen said firmly, "Both the ancestors and Su Ma's mother love children, and I feel that the eighteenth brother will be well with the ancestors and Su Ma's mother."

"Well... I think so too." Kangxi nodded again and again, and murmured, "With Mama and Er Niang here, my little eighteen will definitely be well, will be well..."

Yinzhen accompanied Kangxi to talk for a while, during which time the two of them tacitly did not talk about Yinfeng, and Yinzhen got up and left when someone outside reported the matter. Bored in the tent, he also came out for a walk, Yinzhen understood that this was the release of his own restraint.

After leaving Kangxi's tent, Yinzhen didn't go back to his own tent, but went to the tent where the imperial doctors lived.

In the evening, Liang Jiugong looked at Kangxi who was sitting at the table reviewing papers, and asked in a low voice, "Master, will my slave prepare dinner for you?"

Kangxi paused his pen, "No need, I can't eat it."

"Master, how can you be so old if you don't eat?" Liang Jiugong's expression was a little anxious, "Should I eat more or less?"

Kangxi put the brush on the pen mountain, and sighed, "I really can't eat, I just feel stuck in a panic."

"If the master is not feeling well, why not call the imperial physicians to ask the master's pulse?" Liang Jiugong followed Kangxi's words.

Just as Kangxi was about to say something, he saw a young eunuch cautiously walk into the tent and said, "Report to the Emperor, Brother Fourteen is out to see you."

Kangxi froze for a moment, and didn't know why Yinzhen came here at this time, but he still said, "Let the fourteenth elder brother come in."

"Hey." The little eunuch bowed and retreated after a reply.

After a while, Yinzhen walked in with something, "My son greets Ama Khan, Ama Khan is auspicious."

"Get up." Kangxi looked at the steaming things on the plate, and just wanted to ask, but was stunned when he saw Yinzhen's face, "You are——"

Liang Jiugong also looked at Yinzhen when he heard the words, and immediately his expression became the same as that of Kangxi, very strange.

"Hey?" Yinzhen didn't know what happened, and looked at Kangxi with a blank expression, "What's wrong with Khan Ama?"

Kangxi's expression wanted to laugh but he suppressed it, his voice was wrong, "Is that how you came all the way?"

"Ah, yes." Yinzhen looked himself up and down after hearing the words, and looked at Kangxi again after feeling that there was nothing wrong, "Khan Ama?"

Looking at Yinzhen's innocent look, Kangxi finally couldn't help laughing, "Hahaha, where did you roll and run away from? Hahaha..."

Seeing Kangxi laughing, Liang Jiugong shook his shoulders along with him, but he was very dedicated and didn't laugh out loud.

When Kangxi laughed so hard, Yinzhen saw a big painted face from the mirror held up by Liang Jiugong, one black and one white, and the other looked like a zebra. At this time, Yinzhen let out a belated voice, "Oh! dead!"

……

Kangxi smiled and watched his fourteenth son busy wiping dust and wringing the towel, and when Yinzhen turned into that white and clean prince again, Kangxi waved to him and motioned him to come over, "You're welcome!" You walked all the way with such a cat-like face, and no one reminded you?"

Yinzhen shook his head honestly, "I came to Khan Ama with all my heart, but I didn't pay much attention to it."

When Yinzhen said this, Kangxi remembered what Yinzhen had brought over, "Oh, by the way, what did you bring?"

"Almost forgot." As soon as Kangxi opened his mouth, Yinzhen immediately patted his forehead, stood up and brought the contents of the tray to Kangxi, "It's the porridge and side dishes cooked by Erchen himself, Han Ama try it. Said, looking at Kangxi with a shy and expectant smile, "My son used the stove for the first time, and he didn't understand, so he choked several times. However, my son thinks the taste is good, Khan Ama should try it."

Kangxi was stunned by Yinzhen's words, "Did you do it yourself?"

"Ah." Yinzhen nodded, "I don't know how to be a complicated son. I heard that Khan Ama hasn't eaten much in the past few days. My son is dull and can't help Khan Ama to relieve his worries in other places, so he thought about it." Cook a bowl of porridge for Khan Ama with my own hands, and I hope Khan Ama will use it more or less for his son's sake."

Kangxi looked at Yinzhen who was explaining softly, and after watching for a long time, he focused his attention on the bowl of hot porridge with steaming heat and rice fragrance. After a while, he reached out and picked up a spoon to stir it, tasted it, and said, "good."

Yinzhen was very happy when he heard that, "That's good, I'll let others taste it, and when they agreed, I thought they were cheating on me."

Kangxi didn't speak any more, but slowly ate Yinzhen's bowl of porridge and a plate of side dishes, and Liang Jiugong, who was waiting on the sidelines, let out a long sigh of relief.

After dinner, Yinzhen rubbed Kangxi's arms and shoulders again, babbling, "This massage technique is learned by my son from the imperial physician, and it is said to be good for relaxing meridians and activating collaterals. Khan Ama takes care of everything every day, and the long-term It’s not good to spend time at your desk to deal with official business and move less, it’s not good for your health..."

Kangxi drank a bowl of warm porridge, and Yinzhen's massage techniques were moderately strong, and he fell drowsy after several repetitions.

Seeing this, Yinzhen greeted Liang Jiugong to wait for Kangxi to wash up, and when he was about to leave, he was stopped by Kangxi, "If you have nothing to do, come and talk with me often!"

"Hey." Yinzhen replied with a smile, "As long as Khan Ama doesn't watch too much, his son will be annoyed."

Kangxi glared at Yinzhen angrily, "You are right about everything!"

Yinzhen made a mischievous smile and gave a thousand knees.

When Yinzhen walked out of the tent, the smile on his face disappeared again, his eyes were heavy, and there was an unspeakable tiredness spreading inside.

The journey back to Beijing was not long or short, but Kangxi really called Yinzhen to his side except for sleeping.

Yinzhen never mentioned Yinreng's affairs in front of Kangxi, and only occasionally coaxed Kangxi to eat and rest, often gave him massages, and watched him drink soup and medicine.On the day of arriving in the capital, Kangxi's complexion and body were not as bad as before, but Yinzhen lost two rounds of weight.

When he arrived at the palace, Kangxi first imprisoned Yinfeng in the tent set up next to the Shangsi courtyard, and ordered the king of Zhijun and Sibeile to guard it together.Then the kings Baylor and the Manchu and Han civil and military ministers were summoned to the Meridian Gate to announce the decision to abolish the crown prince, and warned everyone not to use this to invite people's hearts and form cliques to harm each other.Yinzhen knelt on the ground and listened to Kangxi's words. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the group of Eighth Brothers who knelt on the ground with him and lowered their heads, but their faces flashed with joy. There was no ripple in their hearts anymore, and they closed their eyes He put all his attention on Kangxi's speech.

Although the mood has improved a lot in the past few days, when this matter was mentioned again, Kangxi's mood was inevitably depressed. After warning everyone, he let everyone leave. Yinzhen turned his head expressionlessly, turned and walked out.

Before he had gone far, Yinzhen hurried to catch up with Yinzhen, "Fourteenth brother, are you okay?"

Yinzhen watched Yinzhen turn his head to look at him with calm eyes, but in that calmness, he felt that his younger brother seemed to be looking at others through him.

Before Yinzhen could figure it out, Yinzhen had already turned his head, looked at the long underground passage, and said in a low voice, "Brother, I'm too tired."

It seems that the dust has settled, but the undercurrent is more turbulent.
