Yinzhen stared blankly at the two chopsticks, and didn't say anything for a while. Seeing him in a daze, Yinzhen smiled and called, "Fourth Brother? What's wrong?"

"It's okay," Yinzhen smiled, and passed the spoon on the side, "Is it because I can't use my strength? Don't worry, come a little bit, the imperial doctor also said to try slowly."

Yinhu smiled slightly, nodded and took the spoon, "I was the one who rushed in. When I have nothing to do in the past two days, I will hold the chopsticks and practice."

Yinzhen ate this meal like chewing wax, and he didn't taste any taste. When the meal was finished, he said to Yinhu: "A while ago, someone from Beijing brought some official documents from the Ministry of Households. I'll go Take a look, come back later."

"Okay, why is the fourth brother's face not very good, but he got a cold?"

Yinzhen smiled, turned around and put on a big cloak, "There's nothing wrong with his complexion, maybe it's because he hasn't slept well these nights, just go back and catch up on sleep. You rest, I'll go back first."

Yinzhen's residence is not far away, but he seems to have walked a very long way, and his heart is full of unspeakable soreness and bitterness.After entering the house, he closed the door tightly and sat on the chair alone.

"Fourth brother has great ambitions, but I have nothing to pursue. I just hope that I can help fourth brother."

"Okay, I'll make a note of it. It's just that you have to be like this."

There seemed to be endless pain, piercing so sharply into my heart.Thinking of Meng Guangtai's words, Yinzhen seeped endless layers of coolness from the bottom of his heart, even in the room full of charcoal fire, he felt bitingly cold.

That person's smile is always gentle and clear. Since I was a child, I wanted to protect him and prevent him from encountering difficulties.But after all these years, what have you accomplished?

This Sibeile, on the surface, seems to be unparalleled, but the corrupt officials in the court are afraid of him, and the power in private is also firmly grasped.

Yinzhen once felt that he would never encounter anything that would scare him, even if it did, he would be able to resolve it with his ability.

But now, he can only watch Yinhu's right hand hang down feebly.He could do nothing but watch from the sidelines.

Xu Zhen suddenly discovered that his so-called strength was actually like an ant in the face of the five hardships in life. When God waved down a difficulty, he was deeply trapped and could not break free.

The window on the other side seemed not to be closed tightly, and the cold wind slipped in gently, and the branches outside were creaked. It was clearly daytime, but somehow there was a sense of mournfulness.

Yinzhen sat quietly in front of the book case, his heart was full of pain and coolness, if Yinhu knew about it, a person like him would definitely not say anything on the surface.But……

but……

Yinzhen couldn't think anymore, his hands were in front of his eyes, for a long time, drops of warm liquid flowed down from between his fingers, hitting the desk little by little.

When he went back to Yinhu's place again, it was already half-sunset, and the white bricks on the ground were reflected fiery red.The windows in the house were raised a little, and two layers of screens were placed to block the wind, which made the day look a bit hazy and soft, which made people feel at ease.

"Fourth brother, what's the matter, what's the trouble with the household department?"

Seeing that there were actually two bamboo chopsticks beside his pillow, Xu Zhen couldn't help but feel sore, "It's nothing, but there's something short of silver somewhere. Why did you put up the windows? How about the wind? After hearing this, Li Ji quickly lowered the window, and then Yinzhen sent him out.

"The wind is not strong at the moment, not to mention that you can't notice it after a layer of window screen." Yinhu smiled gently, as warm and moving as the sunset outside, "Fourth brother's complexion is still not very good, how about Let Physician Meng give you a pulse in a while."

Yinzhen looked at him and smiled slightly, "I'm fine, so don't worry about it." Then he picked up the bamboo chopsticks beside him, "Have you been practicing this?"

"It's really a joke to say it. It was just that the handwriting was not correct before, and now I can't even hold the chopsticks. I hold it for a while and stop for a while. Now I can only let it stay in my hand for a little longer." Yinhu sneered lightly, his eyes soft and calm, like a clear spring that sees through to the bottom.

"Don't worry, just take your time." Yin Zhen felt distressed that it would take him an afternoon to practice this kind of trivia, but when he heard him say that he could stop for a little longer, he felt a little bit of hope in his heart.

Maybe what Meng Guangtai said was too absolute, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope for his hand.

It just so happened that the medicine was also delivered, and now Yinhu always drinks it slowly with the medicine spoon in his left hand, and after Li Ji wipes the corners of his mouth clean, Yinzhen will take it from the small silver jar at hand. I fed him a candied crabapple.

"Don't tell me, this thing is still useful." Yinhu smiled and picked one from the jar and handed it to Yinzhen, "I'm not afraid of the pain of medicine, but I can drink it in a few big bowls like this all day long. People who also drink are annoying. This thing tastes good, and I should look for it when I go back to Beijing. If Hong Hui and Tian'er are afraid of suffering and refuse to drink medicine, they can also use it."

The taste of candied fruit is sweet and sour, very delicious, Yinzhen nodded with a smile: "You always think about them, now you should think about yourself first. The few times I went out with you, I always didn't protect you well, I've always been pretty good, but it's really..."

Yinhu saw that he was quite self-sufficient in his eyebrows, and comforted him in a calm voice: "How do you say this? If something happens to you, you will naturally worry a large group of tired people. The lottery that the temple asked for is really accurate."

"Do you remember?"

Yinhu nodded, and said quietly: "For example, if the golden scales are released from the blue ripples, you will be surrounded by a net in the dark. If you don't think about it, you will turn yourself out, and you will go to the spring pass to suffer alone. The monk said that I live in the dust and I am in trouble. In the sky, after going through a lot of troubles, I can finally escape the danger. I just don’t know, when will this danger be the end?”

Seeing him like this, Xu Zhen felt a sudden pain in his heart, gently pulled his left hand around his palm, and said warmly: "Don't worry, you have escaped the disaster this time, and you will be a blessing in the future. If the monk says you You really don’t need to take it to heart, when you return to Beijing, I will accompany you to beg again.”

Yinzhen seems to have said this many years ago. At that time, Yinhu remembered what he said, "Living a lifetime, one breath, one life, and a lifetime of peace, why is it so difficult?" '

According to Buddhism, birth, old age, sickness and death are suffering, love and parting are suffering, resentment and hatred are suffering, not getting what you want is suffering, and the five aggregates are suffering as the five sufferings.In his life, he believed that he did not seek the sky, the land, the wealth, or the honor, but only the peace of this life.However, it is so simple, but it is always unavailable.

After dinner, after Meng Guangtai asked for pulse, Yinzhen came out with him again, told about Yinhu's current situation, and asked in a deep voice: "Master Meng, can my eighth brother return...?"

Meng Guangtai frowned and thought for a moment, then carefully looked at Yinhu's recent pulse case, and said to Yinzhen: "If this is the case, it's really hard for me to make a judgment. It's better to observe for two more days. Maybe Babeile Lord An auspicious person, with the protection of Tianwei, the Long Live God, this hand may be able to be preserved."

"But really?"

"Weichen doesn't dare to say enough right now, let's wait for a couple of days." Meng Guangtai said in a respectful and deep voice, "However, Lord Baylor still needs to have a solid foundation in his heart, that is, if he can really keep this hand, It’s really hard to say how far it can recover.”

After hearing this, Xu Zhen's heart skipped a beat, although he knew that it would be a blessing if he could be saved, but he still felt extremely heartbroken after hearing what the imperial physician said.He sighed heavily, nodded and said: "Everything depends on Mr. Meng."

After a few days, although Yinhu held the two bamboo chopsticks in his free time, he didn't gain much benefit.Up until now, it was only able to stop it in the palm of his hand. If he wanted to move it like before, it would be as difficult as heaven for Yinhu.

"It's hard to avoid in the beginning, just take your time, don't worry about this matter."

Listening to his comforting words, Yinhu smiled warmly and said, "I'm not in a hurry. When I have nothing to do these two days, I also tried to use my left hand to grab a pen, and it's not too difficult. Anyway, Sooner or later there will be a good day, what's the use of worrying?"

After hearing his words "sooner or later there will be a good day", Yinzhen couldn't help feeling pain in his heart, but he was afraid of being seen by him, so he quickly lowered his head and pretended to turn up his cuffs, and said in a deep voice: "You are right, Sooner or later it will be fine."

And just when Yinzhen was worried about this matter, he saw Liang Jiugong coming over and saying that the next morning, Yujia would get up and drive back to Beijing.

"Long Live Lord ordered the slaves to come and ask if the Eighth Lord will go back to Beijing with Yu Jia. It would be good to raise him here for a few more days, and Imperial Physician Meng will also stay with him."

Just as Yinzhen was about to respond to Liang Jiugong's words, he heard Yinhu behind him say: "No, please trouble my father-in-law to report back to Huang Ama for me. My injury is no longer serious, and I will go back with you tomorrow."

Yinzhen glanced at him with some concerns, only to see that Yinhu blinked at him lightly as if nothing had happened, Yinzhen understood, and said to Liang Jiugong: "I am sorry for Mr. Liang, I will see him off."

"How can this slave be able to afford it? It's been a lot of hard work." Liang Jiugong had a smile on his face, and when he walked outside with Yinzhen, he felt something heavy in his hand.

Liang Jiugong was so sophisticated, how could he not understand, he shook his sleeves with a smile and put the bag of silver into his bosom, bowed his head and said to Yinzhen: "This is Lord Sibeile?"

Yinzhen's expression remained the same, he walked away from the left and right calmly, and then asked Liang Jiugong in a low voice: "Huang Ama doesn't allow us to interfere with the assassin's matter, but if Huang Ama is the only one to worry about getting involved, I'm afraid I'm really sorry."

Liang Jiugong raised his eyes slightly, glanced at Yinzhen and said respectfully: "Sibei Le's filial piety is moving, but this matter is really a slave..."

"Eunuch Liang, is it possible that Eunuch still can't understand the current situation? The eighth younger brother sacrificed his life to escort him, so the weight in Huang Ama's heart is naturally incomparable to that of the past. Eunuch has always devoted himself to serving Huang Ama, so naturally he also wants to take care of him. Share your worries." Yinzhen's voice was steady, he stood with his hands behind his back, his back was straight, and he looked more and more outstanding.

Liang Jiugong was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and quickly glanced at the inner room. After thinking for a moment, he put on a smiling face and said in a low voice: "Long live God specially ordered that more guards should be on everyone's side when we go back. Beside me, so as not to encounter assassins again." His voice became deeper and deeper, and a touch of ulterior mystery was added to his scheming eyes, "The crown prince is the crown prince of a country, so naturally it is the most important thing, and the accompanying guards must also be careful. It is more than double that of others."

"What about Soetu?"

"Master Sibeile doesn't know something," Liang Jiugong said slowly with a smooth smile on his face, "Your Excellency was frightened that night, and for some reason these days, perhaps because of overthinking, he suddenly fell ill." Lord Long Live is also very concerned, and appointed a team of guards to send you back to Beijing early today. Speaking of which, Lord Long Live really values ​​Lord Suo Xiang, and the guards are all selected from the guards. A top player."

"Suo Xiang is the pillar of the country, and he has made many achievements, so he is naturally loved by the emperor." Yinzhen smiled slightly, nodded and said, "In the future, it is inevitable that Mr. Liang will be troubled. It is a wise choice to know how to choose a tree and live there." .”

After Liang Jiugong left, Yinzhen turned around and went back to the inner room, stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing in a hurry to go back? After going back, everything will be troublesome, how can you still think about recuperating?"

"It doesn't matter, it's the same everywhere. After returning to Beijing this time, there must be some changes. Even if you stay here, you won't feel safe." Yinhu sighed softly, looking at the white porcelain bottle thoughtfully The red plum in the garden seems to be able to smell the fragrance.This is what Xu Zhen just brought over today, he always brings some lively colors outside every day.

"What did the fourth brother talk to Liang Jiugong just now?"

Yinzhen took the half-eaten bird's nest he had just eaten, picked it up and handed the spoon to Yinhu, and said slowly: "Huang Ama ordered someone to 'escort Suo'etu back to Beijing' this morning, as for the prince , the vigilance along the way is naturally different from ours."

Yinhu ate the bird's nest slowly, thinking for a while, "I have been unable to figure out one thing. Except for me, none of you were with Huang Ama that night. How could he only be suspicious of the prince?"

"I was not far away that night. Not long after you left, Tang Quansheng who was next to the crown prince came over. He said that the crown prince invited me over to talk. My son wants to report back to Huang Ama. After seeing Huang Ama, I will go to meet the prince. After all, I also wanted to wait for you at the time, but as soon as I arrived at the covered bridge, I ran into third brother and Lao Qi A few of them, after speaking a few words, they heard that Huang Ama's bedroom was in disarray. By the time we rushed over, it was too late." Yinzhen still felt terrified when thinking about the situation that night I couldn't stop, "Seeing you lying on the ground covered in blood, I was really scared to death. I didn't respond to how I called you at that time. At that time, I only thought in my heart, as long as you can be safe, I would rather lose ten years of my life."

"Fourth brother..."

Yinzhen let out a heavy breath, stroked his right hand gently, and said quietly: "After such a commotion, the prince didn't even show his face, and when Huang Ama summoned him, he was left alone A few words. Huang Ama has always been shrewd. No matter how meticulously arranged such a thing is, there will be flaws exposed. How could he not understand? It’s just that the crown prince must have made a desperate plan. Seeing Huang Ama Nothing happened, he must be angry and shocked in his heart!"

Yinhu threw the spoon back into the bowl, and said with a wry smile: "The prince is really well-intentioned, I just remembered now, Huang Ama first told me that he talked to the prince about Queen Hesheli's old affairs during the day, and then asked Thinking of the anniversary of my mother's death, the prince must have tried every means to mention me. Even if Li Guangdi's papers were not available that night, Huang Ama would definitely invite me to go. He actually hates me so much, I'm afraid It would be difficult to solve the hatred in his heart if I was crushed into ashes."

After hearing this, Yinzhen put the porcelain bowl in his hand heavily on the table, and said with a sneer, "I'm afraid he has no time to think about these things now, just how Huang Ama will deal with him after returning to Beijing. It's enough for him to think about it carefully. To be able to do such a cruel thing to Ama's siblings, such a virtue is really wonderful!"

Yinhu patted the back of his hand lightly, and said in a warm voice: "We'll talk about everything when we return to Beijing, it's all up to Huang Ama."

It was cold and windy outside, and fine snowflakes had drifted by several times in the past two days.As the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a prosperous year, but this new year, many people are destined to have an uneasy life.

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month in the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi, everyone returned to the capital from the Dezhou Palace.
