Emperor order

Kangxi's decree is particularly eye-catching, especially regarding Chenghu's Jin Feng.At first, many people thought that after the trouble caused by the second elder brother Yinyi, the position of the crown prince must belong to the elder brother Chenghu.However, now Kangxi has named Cheng Hu the Iron Hat King.In this way, Cheng Hu made it clear that he was excluded from the list of candidates who were expected to succeed the Datong.

However, it is not difficult to see from Kangxi's will that Kangxi's favorite elder brother is still Chenghu.Everyone secretly speculated that it should be Chenghu's physical problems that caused Kangxi to reluctantly give up.Everyone knows that Big Brother has been physically weak since he was a child.Because of his frail health, he has never married a wife and had children, and his only child, Honghui, was adopted from the fourth elder brother.Thinking about it this way, Kangxi's intentions are basically clear.

There was a lot of discussion from the outside world, but Cheng Hu still lived at ease.This time, he was completely relaxed.If you have nothing to do, stay with Kangxi in Qianqing Palace, or teach Honghui well at home.Everyone thought that he was an unlucky young man, but they didn't know how happy he was actually.

After becoming king, the other elder brothers also fully understood.It turned out that after fighting for so many years, they had always found the wrong partner.Poor Yin Yin who has always regarded Cheng Hu as his biggest enemy, because an enemy who is not an enemy ruined his whole life.Since then, Si Age Yinzhen has officially stepped into the eyes of everyone.The eighth elder brother Yinhu's heart is like a mirror, and he and Yinzhen are each other's only rivals.

Life goes on no matter what other people think.This year, Honghui was fourteen.Originally, Kangxi wanted to marry him, but Cheng Hu refused without thinking.In his consciousness, 14-year-old Cheng Hu is still a half-grown child, how could he get married so early!No matter how you say it, you have to wait until after him before you can think about marriage.Cheng Hu was not in a hurry, nor was Hong Hui himself.Kangxi has nothing to do with the father and son, so this matter can only be shelved temporarily.

On the bright side, there is no surprise, but in private, it is undercurrent.In this way, Kangxi 50 years to.This year is nothing special to others, but to Yinhu, it is a heart-wrenching year because Concubine Liang is seriously ill this year.

In the side hall of Yanxi Palace, the withered concubine Liang was lying on the bed coughing uncontrollably.Seeing his haggard appearance, Yinhu was really heartbroken.

"Emiang, have you taken the medicine yet?" Yinhu asked softly while sitting on the edge of the bed.

Concubine Liang opened her eyes slightly: "I just had a drink. Yinhu, Erniang is fine, you go and do your work!"

Yinhu shook her head: "Nothing is more important than Er Niang, my son will be here with you."

Concubine Liang said impatiently: "This is the harem, it's not right for you, an adult elder brother, to stay here for a long time. Er Niang has someone to take care of her, so you don't have to worry."

Yinhu lightly held Concubine Liang's skinny hand, forced a smile and said, "Emiang, I have consulted Huang Ama for instructions, and he has already granted my request. Erniang, you have a son to accompany you, you must Get well soon."

Concubine Liang felt uncomfortable for a while, she clearly knew that her time was running out.However, she couldn't let Yinhu go.Because of her humble background, Yinhu suffered a lot because of her.But this child has never complained to her, and all she can do is to live in the harem like a shadow, trying not to cause any trouble to Yinhu.

She thought Yinhu would be happier after he married a powerful Di Fujin from his natal family.However, she was wrong.Although Yinhu looks very beautiful on the surface, only he knows the pain in his heart.Concubine Liang vaguely sensed that there was someone in Yinhu's heart.However, for some reason, Yinhu didn't marry that man.

Concubine Liang has no extravagant hopes in this life, she only hopes that her children can live a happy and healthy life.Power and everything are fleeting, life does not bring death does not take away, why be so persistent!She has already seen through some things, but Yinhu is still in the fog.

"Yinhu, listen to what Eniang said carefully. Let's stop fighting for those false names, okay? What's yours will always be yours, and what's not yours can't be forced. Eniang knows that in this life, Eniang has dragged her down You. Erniang's life experience is there, Erniang is powerless to change, and Erniang has already accepted her fate. The only hope of Erniang is that you can live this life without any disasters. Therefore, Yinhu, promise Erniang , don’t fight for things that are destined not to belong to you, okay?” Concubine Liang said earnestly.She knew that a large part of the reason why Yinhu participated in the battle for the crown prince so actively was for herself.However, those are not what she wants, why does this child always not understand!

Yinhu's heart was a little shaken.With the facts before his eyes, Huang Ama's hope of passing on that seat to him was really slim.Originally, he wanted to win, he wanted to prove that he was no worse than anyone else.After years of strategizing, everyone now praises him and calls him the 'Eight Wise Kings'.However, after hearing these exaggerations, he felt a little disappointed.Are these really what he wants?He was a little confused.

Sensing Yinhu's wavering, Concubine Liang decided to strike while the iron was hot: "Yinhu, promise Er Niang, okay? This is Er Niang's last request in this life, Er Niang begs you!"

Looking at the emaciated Er Niang, Yinhu felt sad: "E Niang, I promise you, I promise you."

Concubine Liang could finally feel relieved: "That's good, that's good."

On November 50th in the [-]th year of Kangxi, Concubine Liang passed away.Soon after the death of Concubine Liang, the eighth elder brother Yinhu announced that he would keep his mother's filial piety for three years and began to stay behind closed doors.As soon as the news came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Lianjun Palace.

Yinhu, Yinyu, and Yinzhen came to the door together, intending to persuade Yinhu to change his mind.However, Yinhu, who was dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, said dumbly: "Stop talking, I've made up my mind."

Yin Qu said angrily: "Brother, you let go of power for three years. Then after three years, the world will be dominated by the fourth child. Are you willing to fail?"

"So what if you are willing, and what if you are not? Huang Ama's thoughts are beyond our ability to guess. After fighting for so many years, I am a little tired!" After returning from Jiangnan, Yinhu really felt a little powerless.

Now, among the two most important people in his life, one has lost his soul in the capital, while the other has disappeared without a trace.He really didn't know what was the point of continuing to fight like this with the fourth child.Even if he got that seat, Er Niang would not be able to come back from the dead, and Gao Lang would not return to him because of this.Looking around the icy mansion, he couldn't even find anyone talking.He is really tired!

Yinzhen and Yinju failed to persuade them, so they had to leave angrily.But Yinzhen, who was following behind his brothers, had some other ideas at this time.Since the fourth brother can do it, so can the starling, why can't he?Now that myna is delegating power, can he take advantage of this to rise?Besides, his advantage is more obvious than theirs, he also has a concubine who is in charge of the harem!

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was interesting, Yinzhen excitedly licked his dry lower lip.As the royal brother, who wouldn't want that seat?As long as one ascends to that seat, one is the supreme being in the world.As long as he thinks of the feeling of being king, Yinzhen feels his blood boil.

Not many people noticed Yinzhen's quietly born ambition.However, his thoughts obviously cannot be hidden from Concubine De.However, she supports Yinzhen's idea.In her opinion, no one is more suitable for that seat than Yinzhen.Chenghu can't do it, and Yinzhen can't do it either.Whether it's for Yinzhen or herself, she doesn't intend to continue to stand still.

Concubine De began to actively get close to Concubine Yi, the mother concubine of Brother Nine, and she wanted to win both Yinzhen and Yinju over to escort Yinzhen.Unfortunately, Concubine Yi didn't respond to her overtures.Concubine Yi's standard of being a human being is, since I can't get it, then you can't get it either.

Concubine De was working for Yinzhen in the harem, and Yinzhen himself was not idle.The little actions of their mother and son fell into Cheng Hu's eyes, which was really indescribably funny.

"The two of them are really beyond their limits!" Cheng Hu said to Yin Zhen.

Concubine De doesn't want to see Yinzhen, but Yinzhen always remembers that Concubine De is his biological mother: "Brother, I want to persuade Fourteenth Brother not to go into this troubled water."

Cheng Hu said angrily: "What do you want to persuade him to do? Don't make fun of yourself. If you go to persuade him now, he will definitely think that you are suppressing him for your own sake. So, you should not say anything good."

Yinzhen sighed helplessly: "Is it really impossible for me to fight him?"

"He can't be successful. If he wants to accept Lao Ba's power completely, it depends on whether Lao Jiu and Lao Shi are willing. How can the relationship between Lao Jiu, Lao Shi and Lao Ba be comparable to him! Let him Toss it, I want to see what he can do." Cheng Hu didn't want to see Concubine De, and he didn't even like Yinzhen very much.

Although Yinzhen and Yinxiang are both hailed as elder brothers with both civil and military skills, Cheng Hu believes that compared with Yinxiang, Yinzhen is not a little worse.Yinzhen is like a famous flower that has never been blown by wind and rain and has been cared for carefully. It is beautiful but vulnerable.Yinxiang is a grass that strives hard in nature, and is full of tenacity and tenacity.Of course, this kind of evaluation must contain some prejudices of Chenghu, who made Yinxiang the one who sincerely called him big brother!

Time passed slowly in the toss of the world.When Yinhu's three-year filial piety was about to expire, he avoided everyone and went to Chenghu.

"There is one thing, I want to ask you for help." Yinhu came at night and said straight to the point.

In the past three years, Yinhu really did as he announced, never leaving his mansion for a single step, and never seeing anyone.Cheng Hu had heard some rumors that Yinhu had been sick on the bed because of excessive grief and never got better.When Cheng Hu saw him today, he found that Yinhu was fine except for his pale face.

"Why should I help you?" Cheng Hu thought that his friendship with Yinhu was not that good.

Yinhu's answer surprised Chenghu: "Because of Gao Lang. You don't want to see Gao Lang unhappy, do you?"

Cheng Hu looked at Yinhu with admiration, but he didn't expect that Yinhu was not too heartless towards Gao Lang. "Tell me, what do you want me to help you with. I may not agree, but I will definitely consider it carefully." Cheng Hu said with his chin propped up.

Yinhu took a deep breath: "Let Gao Lang rush back to the capital within three months."

Cheng Hu raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to do?"

Yinhu didn't say it bluntly: "You can't say it now, but you will know it when the time comes."

"Gao Lang has no fixed place, how do you know that I will be able to find him?" Cheng Hu didn't force Yinhu to answer his previous question.

"Even if Gao Lang keeps everyone from knowing his whereabouts, you are not among them now. Do you know? I used to be very jealous of you." Yinhu whispered.

Cheng Hu quickly opened his mouth to defend himself: "Gao Lang and I are really innocent, and the rumors are not credible." He wondered why everyone thought he and Gao Lang were a couple?The two of them are real brothers!

Yinhu raised his head: "I know, because the person he loves is me."

Cheng Hu chuckled: "You are not shy at all. I can indeed let Gao Lang come to the capital once, but I am very puzzled about your purpose. So, if you don't make it clear, I won't help you."

After hesitating for a while, Yinhu said: "We have wasted too much time, and I don't want to procrastinate any longer."

"You want to be with him?" Cheng Hu asked cautiously.This is related to Gao Lang's lifelong happiness. As a brother, he naturally has to ask clearly.

Yinhu nodded: "I don't want to lose him."

Cheng Hu asked tentatively: "After so many years, how do you know that there is no one else around him?"

Yinhu said resolutely: "I don't know. So, I want to take a gamble."

"I don't know whether I should trust you or not. You are too cunning. However, you don't feel tired of the entanglement between you and Gao Lang. I am tired of watching it. Forget it, I will trust you just once." Cheng Hu saw that Yinhu was sincere to Gao Lang, and he was no longer a mother-in-law.As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than one marriage.Then, let him contribute to the flames!

Before leaving, Yinhu said solemnly: "Thank you, big brother." This big brother, without the hypocrisy before, made Chenghu feel very comfortable hearing it.

Watching Yinhu leave, Chenghu then said to himself: "It's hard to be a big brother these days!"
