Crimson Pearl Tears in a Dream of Red Mansions

It is said that Prince Yinreng came back from visiting Wu Yun in Yunxiangxuan, and when he came to his room, he saw Suo Ertu sitting there with an angry face. Seeing this, Yinreng felt a little puzzled, and asked Suo Ertu: "Why did Suo Xiang come here?" Suo Ertu saw that Yinfeng was growing up gradually, but less and less astute and decisive as he was when he was young, so he sighed secretly, because he said: "His Royal Highness, the elder brother's The power is becoming more and more powerful, and there is a great intention to replace you, how can you still be so addicted to wine and sex, how can you let the old minister sit still?"

Yinreng heard Suo'etu's words, and he was surprised: "What did Prime Minister Suo say? My palace is now firmly seated as the crown prince. In the future, the throne will naturally belong to me. Why should I fight for it?" To rob? Just stick to your own duty, and besides, no matter how powerful the big brother is, forgive him, he can't deceive the king and commit crimes?"

Hearing this, Suo'etu almost turned his back in anger, because he said: "My lord, where is your shrewdness and decisiveness in the past? How can you think like this? How can you not fight, Don't fight? If you don't fight or snatch, someone will naturally come to fight for it. How can you be content with your duty? Besides, the bigger the elder brother is, the more he will threaten your power position in the future. After you become the emperor, you will be subject to him in every way, then how can your throne be secure?" The more Suo'etu spoke, the more excited he became, and in the end he looked a little angry.

Yinreng heard what Suo'etu said, and when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't help feeling drenched in cold sweat, and asked anxiously: "Then what should we do now?" Suo'etu heard the words, and Yin sighed: " The old minister begged for mercy because of the misfortune that His Highness the Crown Prince caused that day, and he is still ordered by the emperor not to go to court to reflect on his own mistakes. Therefore, there are many things in the court. Overwhelming!" After saying that, he let out another long sigh.

Hearing the words, Yinfeng couldn't help but said anxiously: "Listening to what Suo Xiang said, there is no way out?" Suo'etu frowned, and after thinking for a while, he said: "But it's not completely hopeless. I'm just afraid that you can't do it." Yinfeng hurriedly asked: "What method?" Suo'etu looked directly into Yinfeng's eyes, and said slowly: "You have to completely win over the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother, Let the two of them follow you wholeheartedly, or in the future you will have enough power to compete with Big Brother and the others."

After hearing this, Yinfeng was surprised and said: "The fourth and thirteenth brothers are originally from the side of the palace, so why go to win over them?" Suo'etu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, what are you doing?" Can't you figure it out? The two of them, one is the adopted son of the late Empress Xiaoyiren, and the other is the only son of the late Emperor Jingmin, if you have the two of them sincerely helping you, the future will be much smoother for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Yin Yin After hearing this, Reng asked, "But the fourth brother and the thirteenth brother don't have much influence, how can they help me?"

Suo'etu said: "His Royal Highness, this is wrong. Although the Tong family said that they support the elder brother on the surface, they actually have several factions. And the leader of the Tong family, Long Kedo It is secretly towards the fourth elder brother, and the thirteenth elder brother seems to be still young, has not yet been entrusted, and has no influence, but in fact the thirteenth elder brother's biological mother, the late imperial concubine Jingmin, is a Mongolian iron tribute. Khan's younger sister, the princess of the Karaqin Grassland. The Karaqin Grassland is the closest to the capital, so the emperor attaches the most importance to it. Tiegong Zhen Khan hurts the thirteenth brother to the bone, so he wins over the thirteenth brother. It is equivalent to winning Tie Gong Zhen Khan. Moreover, the veteran can see that the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother are extremely capable people. If they can help each other with all their strength, the position of His Royal Highness will not be shaken. "

In fact, what Yinfeng didn't know was that there was one more thing that Suo'etu didn't say, that is, he could see that Yinzhen's city was the deepest among all the elder brothers, and that Yinxiang was loved by Kangxi very much, and with him Yinzhen's relationship is very good, so good that it can even be said that they are like the same person, so if Yinzhen wants to seize the crown prince, the consequences will be quite serious.

Yinfeng nodded when he heard the words, and felt that it was reasonable, because he said: "Then what should I do so that the fourth brother and the thirteenth brother can help me wholeheartedly?" The elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother pointed out the marriage, and pointed out Princess Chenyu and Princess Shuning to the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother respectively." Hearing this, Yinreng couldn't help feeling as if someone had poured cold water on his heart, and his heart was so cold. , but I was still lucky, because I asked tentatively: "Aside from this, is there no other way?"

Seeing Yinreng's appearance, Suo'etu knew that Yinreng might be deeply concerned about Daiyu and Miaoyu, because he said: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, must not ruin the event because of indulging in beauty! Your Highness, the Crown Prince, should Know the allusion of the beautiful woman!"

The so-called beauty is unique, which originated from Liu Xiang's "Shuoyuan Fuen" in the Han Dynasty.

In 605 B.C., King Zhuang of Chu quelled the rebellion. He was very happy. He returned to the court and held a grand celebration party in the palace.King Zhuang ordered all his ministers to drink as much as they wanted.In the evening, the wine was not exhausted.Zhuang Wang ordered the candles to be lit and the carnival continued.Seeing that the officials were so happy, King Zhuang asked his beloved concubine Xu Ji to toast everyone. Xu Ji was beautiful, and she came out to toast everyone to add a bit of joy to the atmosphere. Just as she was toasting everyone one by one, a gust of wind Come on, blow out all the candles in the hall.Someone took the opportunity to grab Xu Ji's sleeve, trying to tease her.Xu Ji was very smart, she didn't say anything, but took the opportunity to tear off the man's hat tassel, and asked Zhuang Wang to find out this man and deal with it.

After hearing this, King Zhuang said loudly that everyone at today's banquet should drink to their heart's content and take off their hat tassels.After all the ministers took off their hat tassels, King Zhuang ordered the candles to be lit.Xu Ji was very surprised by this. After the banquet, Xu Ji complained that Zhuang Wang didn't vent his anger on her.King Zhuang said with a smile, the ruler and the ministers had fun to their heart's content. Now it is understandable for someone to be rude after drinking. If the hero is killed for this matter, it will make the patriotic soldiers feel cold, and the people will no longer do their best for the state of Chu. Xu Ji couldn't help praising King Chu for his thoughtfulness.

Later, King Zhuang of Chu personally led the army to attack the State of Zheng, but was besieged by the ambush soldiers of the State of Zheng. At a critical moment, Tang Qiao, the deputy general of the Chu Army, rushed into the siege alone and rescued King Zhuang of Chu. Cunning, Tang Qiao thanked him and said: "At the Jueying meeting, it was the servant who pulled Xu Ji's sleeve. He was kind to the king not to kill him, so today he sacrificed himself to repay it." After hearing this, King Zhuang was full of emotion.

Later, people used this allusion to express magnanimity, and this allusion was used in Cao Zhi of the Three Kingdoms' "Seeking Self-Test Table": "The officials who have lost their tassels and stolen horses are pardoned, while Chu and Zhao Yi help them."

When Yinreng was six years old, Kangxi chose famous Confucian scholars Zhang Ying, Li Guangdi, and Xiong Cilu as his teachers. Therefore, Yinreng is very familiar with Sinology allusions. As for this "beautiful woman", it goes without saying.It's just that although he knows and understands the meaning of this allusion better, but if he wants to put it on himself, Yinfeng still can't be as broad-minded as King Zhuang of Chu, so he is a little hesitant.

Seeing Yinreng's face, Suo Etu knew what Yinreng was thinking, so he took a dose of heavy medicine and said: "The old minister knows what His Highness the Crown Prince is thinking, but Don't forget, Your Highness the Prince, the concubine Ji in the palace of His Highness Ruyun, the emperor loves Princess Chenyu and Princess Shuning very much, and he will never let her two be subordinated to other people to do something like a blessing, so Your Highness, your obsession is nothing but obsession after all, it will not succeed Really. Moreover, the old minister reckoned that according to the Emperor's wishes, he might have pointed out Princess Chenyu and Princess Shuning to the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother on purpose. In this case, why don't His Royal Highness be a favor and accept the fourth elder brother completely? The hearts of elder brother and elder brother Thirteen are of great benefit to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After hearing this, Yinfeng only bit his lips, because he asked a little bit unwillingly: "But doesn't the fourth brother have Nala family? Then Huang Ama will point out Princess Chenyu to him?" Suo'etu heard Yinfeng When Ren said this, a look of anger appeared on his wrinkled face, because he snorted coldly, and said: "At the beginning, the old minister thought that he would make good use of the Nala family's song cloud, but he didn't expect that it would be a bad match in the end. So, Nanara's Geyun would kill the concubine who gave birth to the fourth elder brother's heir because he would not tolerate it, so that he lost the fourth elder brother's heart. Now that it has reached this point, Nanara's Geyun will There is no use value for her, as one of our pawns, it is time to throw her away."

When Yinreng heard the words, he couldn't help being startled, because he asked: "What Suo Xiang meant, could it be..." Before he finished speaking, Yinreng made a gesture of wiping his neck, and then said in a trembling voice, "Kill her?" Suo'etu smiled coldly, and said: "Naturally, it's just that we don't do it ourselves, but we have to borrow the hands of the eldest brother." Seeing that Suo'etu was so vicious, Yinfeng couldn't help feeling cold in his heart, and said: "It must be like this Is it?" Suo'etu sighed, because he said to Yinfeng: "His Royal Highness, do you know? You are good at everything, but you are too kind. If you don't be ruthless, sooner or later you will be killed by others." perish."

After hearing this, Yinreng could only say: "Forget it, leave this matter to Suo Xiang, and I don't want to take care of it anymore." After a pause, Yinreng seemed to have made a decision, and said: "As for the matter of requesting the fourth and thirteenth brothers to marry each other, after the matter of Nala's Geyun is settled, I will personally propose it to Huang Amati."

When Suo'etu heard the words, he nodded and said: "Since that's the case, the old minister will not disturb His Highness the Crown Prince's rest, so let's go." After saying that, he left Yuqing Palace.After Suo'etu left, Yinreng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then angrily pushed everything on the desk to the ground, roaring in grief and indignation.

At this time, the Crown Princess Guerjia just came to look for Yinreng. Seeing this situation, she couldn't help being startled, because she asked Yinreng softly: "Your Highness, what's wrong? But what happened? Is it okay?" Seeing that it was the Crown Princess, Yinreng restrained his emotions, because he still respected the Crown Princess quite a bit, so he said: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm not very happy in my heart."

The Crown Princess listened, and because of a faint smile, she persuaded: "His Royal Highness is not happy in his heart, and he shouldn't vent his anger like this! After all, there are many important memorials on this desk. If it is broken, Huang Ama will ask the crime. But it's not good." Then, because he ordered someone to tidy up the study room, he persuaded Yinfeng to rest in the room.

When the two entered the inner room, Yinreng just said: "Wu Yun's side, I need you to worry about it." The crown princess smiled and said: "Yun'er is pregnant for His Royal Highness, I will not neglect." Then Yin said: "It's just that His Royal Highness seems to be too fond of Yingfu Jin, so that other people have something to say, so I think that if His Royal Highness is free, he should go to other sisters more, otherwise I'm afraid Going down is going to cause trouble."

After hearing this, Yinreng smiled and said, "Well, I'll listen to you." Then he embraced the princess and said with a smile, "Just for today, just stay with me." Getting up, Yin said: "I don't know why, but now I feel that only from you can I hear some truths."

When the princess heard the words, although she didn't know why Yinreng had such emotions, she knew that something must have touched Yinreng's heart, so she had no choice but to comfort her.

Besides, in order to consolidate Yinreng's power and status, Suo'etu decided to kill Nala's Geyun, and then asked Kangxi to marry Daiyu and Miaoyu to Yinzhen and Yinxiang, so as to completely win over Yinzhen and Yinxiang. Yinxiang's purpose, so as soon as Suo'etu returned to his mansion, he secretly adjusted it, and then began to think about how to take this opportunity to ask Kangxi to give him a marriage.

At this moment, Nala's Geyun, Yinzhen's nominal concubine Fujin, is now thinking about what Imperial Concubine Jingmin said to her before she died.To be honest, whenever she saw Honghui's appearance when he was practicing martial arts in the courtyard, whenever she thought of Yinzhen seeing Daiyu, the joy in the corners of his eyes and brows, and the smile on his lips, her heart would be full. suffer.Whenever she wakes up from a dream at midnight, she wishes so much to have Yinzhen by her side, but unfortunately, she always sleeps alone in a quilt, and Yinzhen would rather sleep in the study than set foot in her own room.

Thinking of this, Nala Fujin couldn't help feeling hatred, pain and regret, why did he enter the palace draft?Why did she fall in love with Yinzhen?Why does Yinzhen love Daiyu?Why did I kill Lan'er because of my jealousy?With these questions in mind, Nala Fujin asked herself over and over again, is guarding a man and son who does not belong to her really the life she wants?She remembered that before she married Yinzhen, she had always dreamed of being with him and sharing joys and sorrows.Although she was drafting for the palace for fame and fortune, she never wanted fame and fortune to come to her.

Thinking about what Imperial Concubine Jingmin said to herself before she died, Nala Fujin felt a little confused: Falling into this quagmire, can I still turn around?Shaking her head, Nala Fujin decided not to think about it for the time being, but what she didn't expect was that just when she was about to turn back, the danger had already quietly landed on her...
