seven steps

"Jinxiu, what do you know about the recent incident between the crown prince and elder brother?" Yinhu and Jinxiu have always met outside the palace, so that they can avoid being seen.

"Baye, you have never asked me anything in this year, but today I am asking you this, I am sorry for your boldness, Baye, you are looking too close. In fact, there is not much time in a year. Here is the slave list. You should know what to do."

After speaking, Jinxiu took out an envelope and handed it to Yinhu.His expression was indifferent, nothing could be seen.

"How long did it take you to collect this list." Yinhu opened the list and looked around.asked.

Jinxiu said casually, "Just this year."

Yinhu suddenly laughed, "You have a heart."

Very hearty, this is obviously a betrayal of a huge favor, so I can't do it if I don't help, let alone make a slip of the tongue, but I am a person with a seven-skilled and exquisite heart. "Don't worry, I will arrange for you to leave the palace."

After hearing this, Jinxiu got up and knelt down, "Thank you Baye, my servant."

"Get up, don't just kneel at every turn, you won't get anything out of kneeling," Yinhu said.

Jinxiu thought for a while, as if she had made up her mind. "Ba Ye, the slave overheard a few days ago that the crown prince will never forget you, so be careful, Ba Ye."

Hearing this, Yinhu's hands tightened.It was as if the quilt in his hand was about to be crushed. "Ba Ye, now everyone knows what Big Brother is thinking, so how can Ba ​​Ye prepare?"

"Don't fight, don't fight." Yinhu finally said these four words. In fact, he didn't think about fighting, but thinking of his own background and the consequences of failure, he still gave up.

"If Master Ba is willing to be slaughtered, I have nothing to say, but the slave gave Master Ba a list in the hope that Master Ba can fight for it. Master Ba is no worse than anyone else, but Master Ba doesn't know it. What's more, No matter how Eighth Master backs down, now that the prince and elder brother have seen the edge, then Eighth Master will not be safe no matter what. This is all the slave said, and Eighth Master think twice."

Jinxiu said such a series of words in one breath, not for anything else, but for her own future.He believed that if Yinhu got that position and left the palace by himself, it would be easier.It's not that he doesn't believe that Yinhu won't let him go out of the palace, but whether the prince will let him go after he goes out of the palace.If the master decides to fight, then when the crown prince is devastated, he will have no time to take care of himself.At that time, I was just a dispensable grain of sand, even if I left, it wouldn't matter.

Yinhu didn't speak, but he could tell from his expression that he was thinking.Jin Xiu didn't interrupt, he was very patient with these matters.

"I see, you go back to the palace."

"The slave retire."

Yinhu was still sitting there, and after a while, he walked out of the room and went to Yinzhen's residence.For the servants of Yinzhen's mansion, this eighth elder brother is the second master of the mansion.Seeing that the master is coming, naturally he hastened to welcome him in.

"Is the fourth brother back?" Yinhu asked.

"Returning to Master, the master came back early today, and said that if you come, you can go directly to the study." The servant on the side said respectfully to Yinhu.

"Well, you go down." After Yinhu finished speaking, he walked to the study room, knocked on the door habitually, and Yinzhen's voice came from the room, "Come in."

Yinhu pushed the door open and went in, and saw Yinzhen sitting in front of the table, holding a document in his hand, and rubbing his temple with the other hand.It seems to have encountered a problem.

"Fourth brother, what's wrong?" Yinhu asked.

Yinzhen sighed, "Look, the crown prince is getting more and more outrageous now." Then he handed the booklet in his hand to Yinhu to read.

Yinhu took it and saw that it was nothing more than corruption by the prince's subordinates.And the prince borrowed money from the treasury again, and it has become a style to borrow money from the treasury. Not many people went out, but they haven't paid back until now. A few days ago, Kangxi asked about the treasury, and he didn't know if he wanted to go to war again.

"Fourth brother, does Huang Ama want to fight for Galdan again?" Yinhu frowned and put down the folder in his hand.

Yinzhen took a sip of tea, "I don't think so at the moment, haven't you fought enough in the past two years? What's more, the court is not stable these days, and Huang Ama will not give military power easily. However, it will be uncertain after a while gone."

"Fourth brother, are you going to report the treasury matter?" Yinhu suddenly thought of something and asked.

Yinzhen looked at Yinhu, as if what he wanted to do tomorrow: "Fourth brother, if possible, why not give the bill to the younger brother, and the younger brother will use it as a favor to the prince. Thinking about it, the fourth brother is not going to report it to the emperor at this juncture. Ma, otherwise, Huang Ama will be overthinking again."

Yinzhen didn't say anything, and took a booklet from the pile of official documents on the right hand side to Yinhu, "You are right, if I report it to Huang Ama at this time, he will inevitably think that I have formed a party with the elder brother for personal gain. This is the account book. You take it, and tell the prince by the way, my brother is also doing it for his own good."

Yinhu nodded, "Don't worry, fourth brother, I understand." After speaking, he wanted to leave.Yinzhen tugged on his sleeve, "Would you like to leave if you wish?"

Yinhu didn't react to what he said for a moment. "What does fourth brother mean?"

Yinzhen said: "Come here, accompany me to read the official documents, and then go back after reading."

Yinhu suddenly felt a little helpless, "Fourth brother, this official document will give my brother a headache after reading it."

"Didn't someone outside the Great Wall last year say that we should have the same blessings and share the same hardships? What, you forgot when you came back?" Yinzhen raised his eyebrows.

Yinhu pursed his lips, knowing that his fourth brother held grudges.But he still obediently walked over, sitting next to Yinzhen, Yinzhen smiled, but the smile was so slight that it was hard to detect.From time to time, Yinzhen showed the booklet to Yinhu, and asked his opinion by the way.Yinhu yelled in his heart, what's his interest in the matter of the household department, but he just dared to yell in his heart, if he really yelled, he didn't know how he would be tossed about by his precious fourth brother.

"What are you thinking?"

"No." Yinhu was discovered when his mind wandered slightly, and he lowered his head in distress.Seeing his appearance, Yinzhen really wanted to kiss him fiercely, but in the end he held back, he had always known Yinhu's meek temper, if he really scared him, the gain would not be worth the loss, so just wait.

Yinhu naturally didn't know what Yinzhen was thinking at this moment.Just bite the bullet and watch with me.When Nala knew that Yinhu was coming, she had no choice but to show up, not to mention that they were still busy in the study.So Nalashi ordered to go down and make some bird's nest porridge, and he brought it over himself.

When Nala entered the door, it happened that Yinzhen Yinhu was reading a scripture.Nala smiled lightly and said, "Master, my concubine asked the kitchen to make some bird's nest porridge, you and my eighth brother can use some."

Thinking of it this time, Yinzhen forgot to ask Yinhu if he had eaten the meal, so he nodded and asked Nala to bring it over.

Yinhu looked at the freshly made bird's nest porridge and said to Nala with a smile, "Sister-in-law Si has a heart, my brother really hasn't eaten, and he is hungry now."

After Yinzhen heard this, he glanced at him, "I'm hungry but I didn't see you?"

Yinhu immediately put on a pitiful look, "It's not like the fourth brother didn't ask."

"Come on, don't give me this set. Use it quickly."

Yinhu didn't talk too much, picked up the bird's nest porridge and drank it slowly, the movements were slow and meticulous, and the tone said that he was filling his stomach, rather than tasting it.

After eating the porridge, Yinhu looked at the sky and said to Yinzhen: "Fourth brother, my younger brother has gone back first, it's getting late, if you don't go back, it's time to say hello to Emiang."

"It's done, go back, I know you are very filial." When Yin Zhen said this, there was a bit of sourness in it, but he didn't seem to notice it.

After Yinhu returned with the account book, he didn't go directly to Yuxiu Palace. It was getting late at first, and he didn't want to go to him at night.Second, looking for him in such a hurry, it is unavoidable to show that his heart is to be punished.Thirdly, he has to pay respects to Mr. Liang.

It wasn't until the next day, when Yinhu finished school, that she went to Yuxiu Palace without haste.

Seeing Yinhu coming, Jinxiu was a little surprised, but immediately calmed down again.Yinhu saw it and didn't speak.He just asked plainly: "Is the prince here?"

"If you want to return to the Eighth Master, yes, please come with the servant." After Jinxiu finished speaking, she led Yinhu to look for the prince.

The prince is still in the study. It must be said that Yinhu resists this study in every possible way.But still bite the bullet and go.

"Master, Eighth Brother is here."

"Oh? Please." Hearing the voice, one could tell the prince's strangeness and Namo's undue joy.

Yinhu pushed the door and went in, but didn't close it. "Greetings to the prince."

"My brother, what are you doing with so much courtesy? Get up, I don't know what's the matter with my eighth brother coming to me today."

Yinhu smiled, and did not avoid the prince's hand supporting him, "My younger brother is here today to change someone with the prince."

"Substitution?"

"Yes, my brother wants Jinxiu."

The prince was startled, and looked at Jinxiu who was hanging her head.Xiexie smiled, "Have the eighth brother figured it out?"

"The crown prince misunderstood. The younger brother received the kindness of others, so he will naturally repay it. The person who is looking for is the lost younger brother, it is Jinxiu, so the younger brother will naturally come here."

The prince laughed out loud and sat back on his seat. "Eighth brother, is this the kindness of dripping water and springing up to repay it?"

"Shouldn't."

"Jinxiu is the one I love dearly. Even if it's not as good as someone, it's not what I want." The prince said with a smile.Anyone can understand the meaning of these words.

"My brother said it was a change. I knew it was the crown prince's love, so I didn't dare to force it." Yinhu just pretended that he didn't hear what he said just now.

Hearing this, the prince seemed to be interested, "I don't know what the eighth brother wants to exchange?" When he said this, his eyes drifted to Yinhu's body.

Yinhu took out the account book from his sleeve, "This one. Please have a look at it, Prince." After speaking, he presented it with both hands.

The prince raised his eyebrows, but he still took it. He wanted to know what kind of tricks Yinhu had played.As soon as he opened it, he found that it was an account, and it was an account that he had borrowed money from the treasury all along. He knew that Kangxi had been checking closely during this time.What's more, Kangxi is already tired of the matter between him and the elder brother. If this account is submitted, it will be of no benefit to him.

"Do you think you can replace people with this account?"

"Yinhu is thinking for the prince, if this account is Huang Ama." Before he finished speaking, the prince interrupted him, and he said mockingly, "Even if Huang Ama read it, so what, I am the prince. Huang Ama will never do anything to me." Although he knew that it would be nothing if he submitted it at this time, it was definitely not a good thing.But on the bright side, we still have to hold on.

"Huang Ama is already dissatisfied with the matter between the prince and the eldest brother. Seeing this account at this time must be bad for the prince. If it is not for the long-term consideration of the prince, Yinhu will not come." Said When he said this, Yinhu's face was not blushing and his heart was not beating. No one would know how to say a few official words.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be a ruthless character. You take it away. This account." The prince said through gritted teeth.

"This account is naturally gone. Isn't it in the hands of the prince now?" Yinhu said.

"No delivery."

"Brother retires."

After finishing speaking, she left Yuxiu Palace with Jinxiu.Arriving at elder brother's place, Jinxiu fell to her knees with a "plop" and "thank you, Master Ba, for your kindness."

"Get up, the prince probably won't be free to look for you during this time, but you still have to avoid the limelight. You should go to the fourth brother's house to stay. Think about going out after half a month. You take this letter with you and give it to me." Fourth Brother, it's all right." Jinxiu took the letter and kowtowed again before getting up.

Yinhu waved his hand and asked Wang Gui to send Jinxiu to Yinzhen's residence, while he drank some tea by himself, closed his eyes and rested his mind.Finally, it was a matter, but the crown prince completely fell out with himself.In the future... that's all, no one can predict what will happen in the future.
