Emperor order

On this day, after their brothers had a good time with each other, Cheng Hu was a little overwhelmed with alcohol, so he rested in Yinzhen's mansion that night.

In the middle of the night, Cheng Hu's mouth was a little dry, so he staggered up to look for water to drink.After drinking the water, Cheng Hu felt that the room was too stuffy, so he walked out the door involuntarily.The room next to Chenghu's sleeping room is Yinxiang's room. They all drank too much that night, and Yinzhen slept in Yinxiang's room.

The moon is so bright tonight that it almost catches up with half the sun.Seeing that the windows of Yinxiang's house were not closed tightly, Cheng Hu walked up quietly, intending to close the windows for them.However, when he inadvertently glanced into the room, he saw a shocking scene, Yinxiang was kissing Yinzhen.Cheng Hu shook his hand, and the window made a 'squeak' sound, which alarmed Yin Xiang who was doing bad things.

"Brother!" Yin Xiang looked at Cheng Hu with an expressionless face in bewilderment.

Cheng Hu gritted his teeth and said, "Come out!"

Yinxiang drooped his head and walked in front of Chenghu.In order not to disturb Yinzhen who was still sleeping soundly inside, Chenghu deliberately took Yinxiang to a secluded place before he began to lecture.

"Thirteenth brother, what should I say about you! You fell in love with your fourth brother?" Cheng Hu asked angrily.

Yinxiang actually admitted straight away: "Well, I should be damned for thinking about my fourth brother that I shouldn't have."

Cheng Hu paced back and forth anxiously: "The two of you are brothers! Your fourth brother treats you so well, so you can repay him like this!"

Yin Xiang clenched his lower lip: "I don't know since when, I only have a fourth brother in my eyes and heart. I don't want to see him smile at my Fujin, and I don't want to see him treat others well. I know, yes I'm confused and confused. But, big brother, I really can't do without fourth brother."

"Okay! Let me ask you first, does your fourth brother know about this?" Cheng Hu was also embarrassed to criticize Yinxiang.He and Kangxi are father and son, and now there is still something that shouldn't be involved.However, it was because of this that he understood that this road was not easy to walk.

Yinxiang lowered his head: "If the fourth brother knew, he would have kicked me out of the house a long time ago."

Cheng Hu gritted his teeth: "Thirteenth brother, the matter between you and the fourth brother is out of my control. But you have to promise the elder brother one thing. If the fourth brother hadn't discovered your thoughts, you must not have put this shady person first. Thoughts come to mind.”

"I know this kind of feeling is not allowed in the world, and I won't implicate the fourth brother. As long as I can stay with the fourth brother, I will be satisfied." Yinxiang's eyes were red, and he felt uncomfortable thinking about it.

Cheng Hu is someone who has experienced it, and he clearly knows that falling in love with a close relative is not something to be happy about. "Don't do anything outrageous in the future. Fortunately, your elder brother and I saw it today. If outsiders see it, you and the fourth child will be in disaster!" Cheng Hu sighed helplessly.None of them are reassuring!

Yinxiang nodded: "I know."

Cheng Hu waved his hand weakly: "Go to sleep! Don't let the fourth child see the clues, I'll just pretend I didn't see anything tonight."

"Thank you, brother!" Cheng Hu didn't severely reprimand Yin Xiang, which made Yin Xiang feel much better.

Standing alone in the silent courtyard, Cheng Hu was really speechless to ask the sky.I really didn't expect that Yinxiang would fall in love with Yinzhen secretly.However, after Cheng Hu thought about it, the relationship between the two brothers was unbelievably good, and such a result is not too surprising.

Cheng Hu suddenly had a flash of inspiration.Did Yinzhen really not notice Yinxiang's strangeness?Not too possible!Yinxiang was brought up by Yinzhen, and Yinxiang's thoughts have never been hidden from Yinzhen.If Yinzhen really knew what Yinxiang was thinking, why didn't he respond?Yinzhen's mind is always difficult to guess, Cheng Hu shook his head, and decided to leave this matter to the two brothers to solve by themselves.However, there is one thing Chenghu is sure of.That is, Kangxi must not let Kangxi know about this matter.Otherwise, Yinzhen's road to the throne will be extremely difficult.

The next day, Cheng Hu really pretended nothing happened, just like he had been sleeping in the room yesterday.On the contrary, Yinxiang was a little unnatural when facing Chenghu, but under the cover of Chenghu, Yinzhen didn't notice this.

Not long after, Yinxiang went back to the palace by himself, but went to Yinzhen's mansion for dinner from time to time.Seeing that their way of getting along with each other was still the same as before, Cheng Hu let go of his worries.

In the 39th year of Kangxi, under the overall planning of the eighth elder brother Yinhu, the household income increased a lot.The son is smart and capable, so there is no reason for the father to be unhappy.As soon as Kangxi was happy, he raised Yinhu Erniang Wei's grade.In December of the 39th year of Kangxi, the Wei family was registered as a good concubine, and soon Jin Liangfei became one of the only five concubines in Kangxi.

Yinju is proud of the spring breeze, while Chenghu looks on coldly.

At this time, Yinhu's wings became more and more prosperous.The ninth elder brother Yinhu and the tenth elder brother Yinhu followed Yinhu's lead, and even the 13th elder brother Yinzhen, who was only [-] years old, was very close to Yinhu.

When it comes to the fourteenth elder brother, one has to mention Concubine De.She has vaguely become the No. 1 in the harem now, and the phoenix seal of the harem is controlled by her.Looking at the bodhisattva face that Concubine De has been wearing all year round, Cheng Hu is not happy every time he sees her.Fortunately, Concubine De was not qualified enough for Cheng Hu to greet her, so Cheng Hu would not have to meet her every day.

In the 40th year of Kangxi, the situation in the court became more and more tense.This year, someone reported on Suo'etu, saying that he sold officials to take bribes and formed cliques for personal gain.As soon as the booklet was presented, Kangxi handed it to Chenghu.

"What are you going to do?" Kangxi asked Chenghu.

Cheng Hu resolutely said: "Let Suo'etu return home after his old age, and clean up his party members."

Kangxi said ambiguously: "Suo'etu is your mother's uncle!"

Cheng Hu said bluntly: "It is because he is Er Niang's biological uncle that he was given a chance to get out of his life. Ama Huang, don't you just keep moving him because of the face of the Hesheli family? ?"

Kangxi smiled: "You can see it! However, most of Suo'etu's disciples occupy important positions. If they are all replaced, my court will be empty!"

Cheng Hu winked at him: "Hasn't Huang Ama always wanted to promote the young officials below? Now, isn't the opportunity here?"

"I let you figure out what's on my mind." Kangxi shook his head, "I will leave the matter of Suo'etu to you. Both he and Mingzhu have contributed to the court, and I still hope that they can start well and end well."

Cheng Hu possessed himself and kissed the corner of Kangxi's mouth, "Understood, let's see mine!"

That night, Cheng Hu visited Suo'etu's mansion.

Not wanting to make circles with this old fox anymore, Cheng Hu said straight to the point: "Uncle, tell your old man and return to your hometown!"

Suo'etu's eyes widened: "Brother, what does this mean?"

Cheng Hu sighed lightly: "You have been denounced! Huang Ama has already verified all the crimes. You can still save the day if you take the initiative to report to your old age and return home. If you continue to persist in your obsession, then the bitter fruit can only be borne by yourself .”

Suo'etu broke out in a cold sweat: "Brother, the veteran has always been conscientious and did not dare to do anything detrimental to the court. Those people must have disliked the veteran, and they are all slanderous words!"

"Okay! Huang Ama is very clear about what you have done and what you haven't done, so don't expect to be fooled this time. Huang Ama asked me to tell you in advance, and I have been merciful to you Come face to face. Think about it, Huang Ama took off Mingzhu and those people without saying a word. Do you want to end up like Mingzhu?" Cheng Hu played both soft and hard ways.

Suo'etu slumped on the chair: "Brother, what you said is true. The old minister has been rampant in the officialdom for so many years, it's time for him to take a good rest."

The next day, Suo'etu presented the paperwork for retiring from old age and returning home.With a swipe of his pen, Kangxi directly grants permission.Afterwards, the imperial court launched a major clean-up, and a large number of low-level useful talents were promoted, and finally there was a new atmosphere above the imperial court.

One of them caught the attention of Kangxi and Chenghu, and he was Zhang Tingyu, the son of the great scholar Zhang Ying.This man is talented, and most importantly, he is honest.There are not many honest officials these days, so Kangxi values ​​him very much.His serious behavior in the future is also worthy of Kangxi's attention.Of course, that's something later, Zhang Tingyu is just a small civil servant now.

Although many officials were single-handedly promoted by Kangxi, it is still inevitable to mix in some people who fish in troubled waters.Moreover, all brothers are also trying their best to put people from their side in important positions.Cheng Hu saw it in his eyes and kept it in his heart.

Yinfei and the others still didn't understand. They thought they were perfect, but they didn't expect that everyone could see their every move.Their Huang Ama is Emperor Kangxi!If you want to play tricks under his hands, isn't this a dead end?The reason why Kangxi stood still was just to see what his sons could do.Therefore, at this time, it is a good idea to respond to all changes with the same.

Busy and busy, four years have passed.Under Kangxi's strategizing and Chenghu's secret deployment, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The winter of Kangxi's 43rd year was a cold winter.On a snowy night, Cheng Hu finally saw Gao Lang who hadn't seen him for a long time.

After Yinhu got married that year, Gao Lang was encouraged by Chenghu to stay away from the capital.In the past few years, he has been wandering in other places as a barefoot doctor.This time, he missed Cheng Hu a little, so he went back to the capital to see him.

Cheng Hu gave Gao Lang a punch the first time they met: "You are so mean! After leaving, there is no letter." Then, he took a good look at Gao Lang.I haven't seen him for a few years, but he has darkened a lot, his body has become stronger, and he has gained a good physique after being exposed to the wind and rain outside.

Gao Lang's perennially paralyzed face also squeezed out a smile: "You are still the same, but you have gained a little weight. It seems that you have enjoyed these years."

Cheng Hu rubbed his stomach: "Fortunately, I don't have a small belly, otherwise, I will lose weight. If this continues, my image as a sick prince will be ruined."

Cheng Hu led Gao Lang through the courtyard and into the warm room.As soon as Cheng Hu entered the door, a child ran over, pulled his sleeve and yelled: "Ama, you are lying! You said you would accompany me to build a snowman, but you ran out first by yourself."

Cheng Hu twisted the child's nose: "There are guests in the house today, and Ama will accompany you to build a snowman tomorrow. Honghui, come and call someone. This is your Uncle Gao."

Seeing that there was an outsider, Honghui immediately stopped acting coquettishly, but said to Gao Lang with a straight posture: "Uncle Gao, I am Honghui."

"This child looks like you raised it. It's one thing to get used to being in front of people, but another way to be behind people's backs." Gao Lang commented pertinently.

Cheng Hu nodded proudly: "The child I taught has a lot of cunning. You don't know, he is lawless in front of me. In front of others, especially in front of his kissing Ama, he is a calm little adult. Others say that this child is so calm at such a young age, he will definitely become a great weapon in the future."

Gao Lang curled his lips: "You have the guts to be proud of teaching children like this."

Cheng Hu patted Hong Hui on the head: "This is what a smart person does, isn't it, Hong Hui?"

Honghui replied solemnly: "Ama's words are absolutely true."

"You've come all the way and you're tired of thinking about it, so go take a hot bath first, and then have a good meal." Cheng Hu said thoughtfully.

Gao Lang nodded: "Alright."
