Emperor order

Kangxi closed his eyes slightly: "Chenghu, your change happened during the southern tour. I have asked you many times what happened. However, you have always avoided talking about it. Now, I will ask you again, what is the reason? What, your attitude has changed drastically? Especially when facing me, why did you hide your heart?"

From the moment he agreed to have a good talk with Kangxi, Chenghu knew that he might not be able to escape this time.However, he didn't want to escape any longer.He is tired!If he said the answer, Kangxi hated him because of it.Then, he will take the initiative to disappear from Kangxi's sight, and he will not stay in Kangxi's eyes with a stern face.Because even if he lost everything, he didn't want to lose his only dignity.

"Huang Ama, I'm in love with someone." Cheng Hu stood up suddenly, and then said to Kangxi solemnly.

Cheng Hu's eyes made Kangxi's heart throb unconsciously.There were too many things in Cheng Hu's eyes, and some of the inexplicable feelings in it gave Kangxi a premonition that he couldn't bear it.

"Who?" Finally, Kangxi asked.Because he vaguely sensed that this might be his only chance to know the answer.If he missed this time, the knot between him and Cheng Hu would not be resolved when.

Cheng Hu took a deep breath, and was about to dissect his hidden deepest feelings to Kangxi.It's a pity that Liang Jiugong's rash intrusion broke Cheng Hu's hard-won courage.

"Your majesty, it's not good. Sixth elder brother, sixth elder brother has acne!" Liang Jiugong complained out of breath.

The acne here does not mean chickenpox, but smallpox.Smallpox was an extremely dangerous disease in ancient times.

Kangxi immediately asked nervously: "How is Sixth Brother doing now?"

Liang Jiugong said anxiously: "The imperial physicians have already rushed to Yonghe Palace, but the situation seems to be a little bad. The imperial physicians suggested that the sixth elder brother be moved to the side hall to prevent other people from contracting smallpox. However, Concubine De insisted against it. So, Everyone just hang on."

After a moment of silence, Kangxi said in a low voice: "Do as the imperial doctors say."

"Yes." Liang Jiugong left in a hurry.

Yinzuo was in danger, and Kangxi was very upset.So, he said to Cheng Hu: "Cheng Hu, let's talk about it another day, you can go back today!"

Cheng Hu had no objection: "Yes, my son obeys the order." Anyway, he couldn't say that answer.Let's wait until the day when we are fully prepared and face Kangxi again!

When Chenghu turned to leave, Kangxi added another sentence: "Tomorrow, you take Yinzhen to Yonghe Palace to see. Yinzuo's illness will definitely hit Concubine De hard. With Yinzhen here, Concubine De will be able to Feel better."

Cheng Hu frowned slightly: "Huang Ama, this is not good! The fourth brother has never had acne, so it is too dangerous for him to go to Yonghe Palace at this time."

Under Kangxi's distraught, he couldn't help but be serious: "No matter how dangerous it is, as a son, he should be filial to his mother at this time. Besides, Yinzuo has been isolated, and Yinzhen will be fine. You just Follow my orders, don't push back and forth."

Chenghu knew that if he continued to evade, Yinzhen would be charged with unfilial piety, and he would also bear a harsh reputation.Therefore, he could only reluctantly agree: "Yes, I will take my fourth brother to Yonghe Palace tomorrow."

"Go down!" Kangxi waved his hand wearily.

The next day, under Tong Jiashi's urging, Chenghu brought Yinzhen to Yonghe Palace.At this time, the Yonghe Palace was full of gloom, no matter if it was the concubine De or the gang of maids and eunuchs, everyone was frowning.Concubine De has already passed out once, and if there is no good news, her situation may not be much better than that of Yinzuo.

"Emiang, the sixth brother will be fine." After holding back for a long time, Yinzhen finally said such a dry word of comfort.

Concubine De glanced at Yinzhen quietly, and then turned her gaze to the side hall where Yinzuo was.Concubine De's indifference to Yinzhen made Chenghu angry.If he had known this earlier, he should have been determined not to let Yinzhen come here to be angry.

Just when Yinzhen and Concubine De were having an unpleasant exchange, Chenghu caught sight of a person who he knew very well. "Gao Lang, what happened to Sixth Brother?" Cheng Hu pulled Gao Lang to a remote corner and asked in a low voice.

Gao Lang said truthfully: "It's very bad. I guess it's more of a disaster than a blessing."

"So serious?" Cheng Hu was a little dazed.It's true that he was at odds with Yinzuo, but he never thought of putting Yinzuo to death.In his opinion, no matter how bad Yin Zuo is, he is still a child.When he first heard that a child whose life hadn't really started was about to leave this world, Cheng Hu felt really uncomfortable.

Gao Lang's face was solemn: "Smallpox is a disease, as far as the current medical level is concerned, there is really no way. What we can do now is to obey the destiny and do our best." As a doctor, seeing a living life in front of his eyes Going by, Gao Lang really has mixed feelings.

"Get out of the way, all of you!" A loud noise interrupted the conversation between Cheng Hu and Gao Lang.He looked along the prestige, and it turned out that the concubine De, who was eager to love her son, wanted to break through the obstruction of the palace people and enter the side hall to take care of Yinzuo in person.

Yinzhen who was standing beside Concubine De hurriedly pulled Concubine De back: "Emiang, don't go in, it's very dangerous."

Concubine De didn't even look at Yinzhen: "Yin Zuo is calling Er Niang inside, I heard it. He hurts! No, I have to take care of Yin Zuo myself." At this time, Concubine De had only Yin Zuo in her eyes.This kind of cognition made Yinzhen's face extremely gloomy.

Cheng Hu hurriedly walked up to Concubine De: "Empress De Concubine, if you are really good for the sixth younger brother, then pray for him outside. If you go in, it will only cause more people to worry. So, please stay outside wait."

Concubine De stared at Cheng Hu with unfriendly eyes: "Brother, you should be very happy now, right? My Yin Zuo is dying, you must be very happy to hear the news. Who let him block your way? your eyes."

Concubine De's unreasonable making trouble made Cheng Hu's face sink: "Ms. Concubine De, I know you are a little upset now. Therefore, I will not take what you just said to heart. At this time, the sixth brother is the most important thing. You should also think so in your heart. So, don't make any more trouble!"

Concubine De knew that what she said just now was a little too much.If it gets into the ears of those who care, I don't know what kind of trouble it will cause.However, she didn't intend to round up the words.If something happens to Yinzuo, she doesn't want to live anymore, so why care about so much!

"It's not good, Brother Six is ​​dying soon." The imperial doctor who was taking care of Yinzuo in the side hall ran out to report in a panic.

"What?" After hearing the bad news, Concubine De finally couldn't hold on anymore.He closed his eyes and fell to the ground directly.

There was no backbone at the scene, so Cheng Hu had no choice but to stand up: "Hurry up and help Concubine De enter the house, and let the imperial doctors take care of it carefully. In addition, immediately find someone to report the situation of the sixth elder brother to Huang Ama."

"Yes." A young eunuch immediately ran towards the Qianqing Palace.

After a while, Kangxi rushed into Yonghe Palace with several people. "It's true that Yinzuo can't be saved?" Kangxi showed pain on his face.

The imperial physicians did not dare to reply, and in the end, Gao Lang said bluntly in a deep voice: "I have tried my best, the sixth elder brother's smallpox disease is fierce, and we are helpless."

Kangxi didn't speak for a while, but in an instant, his face seemed to be a little older.In the end, Cheng Hu couldn't stand it any longer, so he bit his bullet and said, "Huang Ama, this is the sixth brother's life, please give me condolences!"

"Fate? What is fate? My son should never have died so early." Concubine De, who did not know when she woke up, walked tremblingly in front of Kangxi and Chenghu. Someone wanted to harm Yinzuo, that's why Yinzuo became like this. Yinzuo was fine when he had dinner yesterday, but he started to get acne at night. This incident is too sudden, it must not be simple. Your Majesty, please You are aware."

Concubine De's meaning made Cheng Hu sneer.Concubine De, concubine De, you are still in the mood to spout blood at a time like this.Should I say you are smart or say you are stupid?

"Er Niang, everyone may get acne, it's unavoidable, and it's absolutely impossible to be man-made, you're overthinking it!" Yinzhen couldn't help but speak up.No matter who Concubine De wants to slander, he doesn't want her to make the same mistakes again and again.

Concubine De ruthlessly shook off Yinzhen's hand that was supporting her: "Why did no one else get smallpox, but only my Yinzuo suffered? This is clearly abnormal. Please, Your Majesty, give Yinzuo justice."

Kangxi looked at the heartbroken Concubine De in embarrassment.It is completely impossible for anyone to hear what Concubine De said.However, as a mother who is about to lose her son, Concubine De's actions are understandable.

"Your Majesty, Brother Six has gone!" After a while, the imperial physician stumbled out the sad news.

Kangxi closed his eyes sadly: "Okay, I understand."

Kangxi's dejection made Chenghu feel distressed for a while: "Huang Ama, you'd better go back to Qianqing Palace to rest! I'm very worried about you!"

Kangxi tightly clenched Chenghu's hand: "I still want to take another look at Yinzuo. Chenghu, you all stay outside." Kangxi has had smallpox, so he is not afraid of infection.

Cheng Hu shook Kangxi's hand back: "Huang Ama, I will accompany you."

"No," Kangxi resolutely refused, "You all stay outside."

Afterwards, Kangxi walked into the side hall slowly, until a moment later, he came out with a mournful face. "Sixth elder brother's funeral, we can do whatever we want." After ordering Liang Jiugong, Kangxi walked out of Yonghe Palace with heavy steps.

On May 24th in the [-]th year of Kangxi, the sixth elder brother Yinzuo died.
