Rebirth of the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 62 Falling from the Building

In the silent monastery where the night had already fallen, the barefooted little elder brother avoided the ferocious beasts that followed him everywhere, running faster and faster, his heart beating in his throat, his whole face was pale and bloodless, and his eyes were written full of terror.

The footsteps of the people behind him were also gradually speeding up, chasing him around the veranda, through the flower garden, and finally seeing him flee into the temple tower in front of the courtyard in such a panic, without hesitation at all, Yinzhen didn't delay for a moment and went straight He just followed in, almost at the speed of running, chasing Yinli up to the top of the tower layer by layer.

After dinner, Yinhu, who was very bored and came out for a stroll in the garden, was a little surprised to see the figure of Yinzhen in front of him flashing quickly in front of his eyes, and entered the abandoned temple tower as far as he knew. In the dimness, Yinhu did not see the prey that Yinzhen was chasing, but only saw him in a hurry, with his brows tightly frowned, even though he only saw a profile, he still saw the inexplicable but shuddering coldness in his eyes color.

After hesitating for a while, Yinhu raised his heels and went up. The tower was pitch black, and there were faint footsteps, but he couldn't hear them clearly. He stood at the bottom of the tower for a while, feeling a little uneasy in his heart Premonition, hesitation, and finally curiosity prevailed, still holding the escalator with one hand, and cautiously climbed up step by step.

On the other side, Yinzhen had already quickly chased Yinli to the top of the tower. Yinli had no way to retreat, and retreated to the edge of the fence. Behind him was the dark night sky, and the chilling cold wind passed by. He squatted down and shrank into a ball, his body trembling, the deepest fear in his eyes.

"Don't kill me...I beg you don't kill me..."

Yinzhen stopped a few steps away from him, and calmly looked at the little elder brother who was already ashen-faced and crazy at the moment, murderous intent slowly surfaced in his eyes.

"what do you know?"

Every word, the cold voice without any ups and downs echoed in the small attic on the top of the tower, which was so gloomy and almost terrifying. Yin Li shrank back even more when he heard it, and murmured: "Don't kill me!" ...I didn't see... didn't see anything..."

"Let me ask you, what do you know? What did you see?" Yinzhen said and took two steps forward.

Yinli wanted to scream, but facing Shang Yinzhen's eyes that could almost swallow him up at this moment, his voice was stuck in his throat, but he couldn't utter it, he could only choke up: "You are a bad person...you killed the fourteenth brother...you also sent someone to kill the little monk...I want to tell Khan Ama...I want to tell Khan Ama...Woo..."

Sure enough, Yinzhen's pupils shrank slightly, his hands under the sleeves were slowly clenched, and he raised his feet and walked towards Yinli step by step, the murderous intent in his eyes was no longer concealed.

Yinli was so frightened that the blood almost flowed backwards all over his body, and he kept shrinking back. He didn't know that Yinzhen could see it clearly. Behind him, the wooden fence that had been in disrepair for a long time had begun to creak and crumble because of his movements. .

Yinzhen slowly stretched out his hand towards Yinli, with the corners of his mouth raised, but he smiled like a devil: "Seventeenth brother, you misunderstood me, I didn't kill them."

"No...it's you...I saw it with my own eyes...it was you...you killed them...you...ah..."

In just an instant, half of the fence suddenly collapsed, and Yin Li, who was caught off guard, fell backwards. His instinct to survive made him subconsciously grab Yinzhen's hand stretched out in front of him, and his fingers ran across the back of his hand. Yinzhen raised his hand vigorously and waved it away. After screaming, the poor little elder brother just fell into the black abyss behind him.

With a loud 'bang', Kangxi stopped in shock and looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment. The falling person was about to hit him, and when he recovered, his body was already on the verge of falling. It was Yinli, and the person who fell in front of him and smashed his brains apart was Yinli, his son.

Yinti, who was following Kangxi, also looked at the scene in front of him in shock, and looked up subconsciously when he came back to his senses. The top of the tower was dark, and it seemed that a figure flashed by. He was not sure if he was dazzled.

Yinzhen flashed back quickly. At the moment when Yinli fell, he had already seen the approaching torches under the temple tower. He thought something was wrong in his heart. He glanced around quickly, and before he had time to think, he climbed up. He got behind the rusty Buddha statue covered with dust and cobwebs, and shrank under the table to cover his figure.

The beads on his wrist came loose, and they were torn off when Yinli fell down. Yinzhen held it in his hand and looked at it. Fortunately, the thread was broken, and the beads didn't all fall apart, just missing a few. only one.

But at this moment, he didn't care about it at all.

Looking at his son who died in a horrible and miserable state, Kangxi almost passed out again, tears streaming down his face in an instant, the officials who followed behind him knelt down in fright, Yinti stretched out his hand to support Kangxi's arm, and said in a low voice Remind him: "Khan Ama, there seems to be someone on the top of the tower, don't let him escape."

Then, without waiting for Kangxi to speak, Yinti scolded the almost stupid guards on his behalf: "Hurry up, go to the tower to search! Be sure to search out the people inside!"

Kangxi fell to the ground, couldn't hold back after all, and burst into tears.

Because Yinhu was nervous, or overly vigilant, he walked very slowly, observing around carefully while climbing up the steps slowly, so when he suddenly heard the sound of messy and noisy footsteps behind him. In fact, I was a little surprised. The whole tower was instantly illuminated by torches. Before Yinhu could recover, several guards rushed up. They were not polite when they saw him. The head of the guards around Kangxi waved his hand, Yinhu was taken down and dragged down from left to right.

Yinhu was shocked and shouted: "What are you doing! Let go of me!"

No one paid any attention to him, and he was dragged out of the temple tower in embarrassment after only two or three strokes. He looked at the people everywhere in front of him in surprise, especially stood up tremblingly with red eyes, and now glared at him angrily. Kangxi, who was about to swallow him up, looked down again, and saw Yinli who had fallen beyond recognition and was covered in blood beside him. Yinhu's legs and feet went limp, and he almost fell to his knees on the ground.

Yinzhen, who was hiding under the table behind the Buddha statue, heard the footsteps approaching, and his heart jumped into his throat at this moment, he clenched the Buddhist beads in his hand tightly, clenched his teeth, and almost held his breath.

The torch in the guard's hand swayed around in the attic on the top of the tower, which is not too big to see at a glance, but he didn't find anything unusual. Someone went to the fence where Yin Li fell to look, and after a while, the footsteps gradually faded away. Go, the attic was dark again, Yin Zhen heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that he could not stay here any longer, he climbed out cautiously, until he heard the footsteps and guessed that the guards who came in to search and check had already arrived At the bottom of the tower, he raised his foot and slowly moved down.

Kangxi's eyes were red, and fire could almost burst out from his eyes. When Yinhu was still shocked, he stepped forward step by step, raised his hand and slapped Yinhu's face hard, gritted his teeth and spit out two words. One word: "Beast!"

Yinhu was stunned by the beating all of a sudden, fell to his knees on the ground, was stunned for a moment, then suddenly recovered and raised his head: "It's not me! I didn't do it!"

"Who else is it if it's not you! Why were you taken out of the tower if it wasn't you?!" Kangxi was so angry that he kicked him again: "You bastard! If I had known you were such a madman, didn't you?" I shouldn't have let you be born with something human! Beast!"

"It's really not me!" Yinhu looked at Kangxi's extremely cold eyes, and hearing his heart-wrenching words, argued with his eyes flushed with anxiety: "I saw Prince Yong rushing in. Go to the tower, I followed in because I felt suspicious! It really wasn't me! I was brought down by these guards before I reached the top of the tower! I didn't push Seventeenth Brother down the stairs!"

Yinti frowned when he heard that, and asked him, "Did you see that the fourth child also entered the tower?"

"Yes! It's him! It must be him! I see him looking flustered and sneaky! He must have done it!"

Yinti and Kangxi's eyes turned to the guards who came down to report at the same time, and all the guards shook their heads: "The servant has already gone up to the top of the tower to search, except for the eighth elder brother who did not see anyone else inside, the eighth elder brother is indeed there The servants brought him down from the middle of the tower, but he was leaning sideways by the escalator at the time, and the servants didn't know whether he was going up or down..."

When Yinhu heard what the guards said, she became even more anxious: "It's really not me! I really saw Yinzhen go in! He must be still inside! He must be still inside! The emperor clearly checked! It's really not me. of!"

Kangxi yelled at the guards angrily: "Go in and search carefully!"

"What happened?"

As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, Yinzhen's voice rang out behind the crowd. Yinhu turned his head suddenly in astonishment, and saw him walking forward calmly, seeing Yinli's body on the ground, his eyes revealed With a look of astonishment, he asked Kangxi: "Seventeenth brother... this... this is..."

Kangxi looked at him coldly, and after a long while, he asked, "Where did you go just now?"

"I'm not feeling well, and I've been resting in the room. Just now I heard the noise outside and someone told me that something happened, so I came out to have a look." Yinzhen explained calmly.

"You're lying! I saw you enter the tower before! It was you who pushed Seventeenth Brother down! You were not in the house at all!"

Yinzhen looked at him in surprise when he heard the words: "What are you talking about? How could it be me? I really just came here from where I live."

Then he turned his head to Kangxi and knelt down again, and begged, "The emperor is aware that the injury I suffered last time has not healed, and the wind cannot blow. This time I came to Wutai Mountain to worship Buddha, except for going to the Buddhist hall. , almost staying in the room without going out, this point can be proved by the people who serve around Erchen, and it is absolutely impossible for Erchen to do such a thing as push down the seventeenth brother to come downstairs, please also ask the emperor After a detailed investigation of the matter, I will return my son's innocence."

Yinti was still arguing for himself in panic, and Yinfeng, who also heard the news and came to see the excitement, appeared behind Yinti at some point, and asked him in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Yinti turned his head to look at him, pursed his lips, shook his head, and lowered his voice: "The bell-strike ceremony just ended, we came back with the emperor, and when we came here, we saw Seventeen falling down and entering the tower. The guards in Lisou brought Lao Ba out, and Lao Ba said that he went in with Lao Si."

Yinfeng sneered when he heard this, and glanced at Yinhu and Yinzhen who were kneeling on the ground, arguing with each other, and then looked at Kangxi who was mad and wanted to kill someone, curled his lips, no matter what, This time, one of the two must die.
