The forty-sixth year of Kangxi was the calmest and coldest year after entering the palace. Since the last big dispute, Yinzhen has never come to my yard again. Everyone in the house knew that Geng Gege had fallen out of favor.

After Su Rui was killed with a rod for murdering the prince's heir, the Song family became in a trance because of the double blow of the loss of her daughter and Su Rui, and she never got better.

Xiao Shunzi asked people to hand over the portrait and all the clues found to Yinzhen at my behest, and was told by me that there was no need to meddle in anything, and there was no need to ask anything again.

Soon after I fell out of favor, Zhang was found to have had unclear dealings with people outside the house, and Yinyu didn't know what he had done to clear himself from the whole thing. Later, Zhang was arrested, and I don't know why, but she admitted that she instigated Su Rui to strangle Song's premature daughter to frame me, and let Su Rui drag me to have an affair with someone.

These are all revealed from the seemingly casual conversations between Xiaoshunzi and Aster, but even so, Yinzhen has never come to our hospital again.

The matter of avoiding Zi Tang, under the pressure of Xiao Shunzi, Lu Luo admitted that she told the Zhang family, and the Zhang family told Su Rui the news and asked her to take it as evidence to prove that I had two hearts for Yinzhen. In the end, because of another betrayal, the pothos completely touched the bottom line of Xiaoshunzi. Xiao Shunzi asked Yinzhen for grace to send the pothos out of the house, but it didn't take long for the pothos to die. It is said that it is not dignified to die, but how exactly did he die, Xiao Shunzi is reluctant to say, and I don't want to ask more.

In such a turbulent year, from the initial irritability and sadness, to the beginning of the slow calm, I began to be completely sober and calm. With the company of the Qian family, coupled with the frequent contacts of the old family, life did not become difficult because of his estrangement. The body and mind that had not been able to recuperate for a long time finally recuperated.

Looking back on the past few years, it is like a dream of mirrors, and the vanity makes people impetuous. It turns out that this is the courtyard of the deep house, and in such an endless battle between open and secret, it is difficult for anyone to keep their original intention and retreat. And I'm lucky, at least until now, my hands are still clean and my heart is still my own.

The forty-sixth year of Kangxi is another year of selection. Kangxi still pointed out people to Yinzhen as usual, and Yinzhen also accepted it.

So the old people in the inner courtyard fell silent, and the newcomer Gege was neither lukewarm nor far away from Yinzhen. Yinzhen still works late every day, occasionally resting in the inner courtyard, but he can't talk about how much he loves newcomers.

I figured out a lot of things, and I naturally looked down on who Yinzhen didn't favor, and I didn't allow Xiaoshunzi to ask for more words.

In a blink of an eye, it was the forty-seventh year of Kangxi, who was destined to be uncalm.

In the first half of the forty-seventh year of Kangxi, it seemed to me like a calm before the storm, and everyone lived their lives and did their own things step by step. But I know exactly what this year will change, and I vaguely look forward to the storm.

Even if I don't get along well with Yinzhen emotionally, it still doesn't damage my political support and trust in him. So I secretly pray that this year will be the beginning for Yinzhen to really make up her mind to show her ambitions.

On the fourth day of the ninth month, Kangxi inspected Saiwai and returned to Beijing on the way, and summoned all the kings, ministers, guards, civil and military officials to the palace in the place of Burhasutai, and tearfully announced the abolition of the crown prince Yunren.

At night on the 16th, Yinzhen suddenly came to my yard. His arrival was always so quiet and unexpected.

When he arrived, I was changing into my middle coat and preparing to sleep, and I even had a moment of trance when I heard Xiao Shunzi's passage outside. Until I saw him enter the house, and his figure looked a little unreal in the dim candlelight.

"Come and have a drink with me today," he said first to break the silence of the room after entering the room.

I nodded and motioned for Aster and Xiao Shunzi to go to Zhang Luo.

"In a few days, let Su Peisheng arrange another servant for you to come and serve. "Yinzhen saw that after Aster and Xiaoshunzi went out, there was no one around me to serve, and he got up to make tea for him in person, so he spoke.

"No, I'm confused when there are too many people," I said with a slight smile.

"It's been so long, are you still holding it in your heart?" asked Yinzhen.

I looked up at him, and suddenly smiled and said, "I thought that the person who had been holding it in my heart was you." ”

Yin Zhen fell silent, sighed and said, "You unconvinced temperament, why do you have to talk hard that day." Even if I understand afterwards that you are angry, I still feel that there will be a pimple in my heart. ”

I didn't want to continue to dwell on the past with Yinzhen, so I shook my head and said: "The past is gone, don't think about it, it's good now." ”

Yinzhen still wanted to say something more, but it was no longer easy to speak when I was blocked by my words. At this time, Aster and Xiao Shunzi brought wine and food, alleviating the embarrassment in the room.

The wine and food were all together, and it was estimated that Yinzhen suddenly came over and must have something to tell me, so he motioned for Xiao Shunzi and Aster to retreat outside the door and wait.

"Why did you suddenly want to come to me today?" I asked bluntly, filling the cups of the two of them.

"Huang Ama deposed the crown prince, and this time he returned to Beijing to summon the kings, Baylor and other ministers above the deputy capital to the noon gate to announce the detention of the prince Yunren. Yin Zhen did not shy away from saying.

Sure enough, it should have come or come, I thought to myself. There was a deliberate look of surprise on his face, and then he said with a smile: "I'm a woman in the house, you shouldn't tell me about these things." ”

Yin Zhen smiled bitterly: "Except for those cronies' subordinates, the only one who can listen to me talk about these things is you." ”

"I don't understand this, you can say it if you want to, I'll just listen. I smiled and pretended to be confused.

Yin Zhen looked at me for a long time, and said in a low voice: "I know that you have always been transparent in your heart, although you are always confused in the affairs of the inner house, but you really know it when you encounter major events." ”

I didn't answer his words, just chuckled.

"The eighth child is now privately lobbying everyone to elect him as the crown prince, and he has also approached me, hoping that I will also support him. What do you think about this matter?" Yin Zhen ignored my deliberate evasive attitude, and still insisted on asking.

"The prince is a descendant, the emperor just hates iron and steel, how can he take it seriously, not to mention whether the prince is guilty or not, how did this crime come out, I'm afraid it's hard to say. Not to mention anything else, the emperor has always been affectionate, and the prince has always been the emperor's valued and loved son-in-law. What do you think the emperor will think?" Seeing that he asked, I had to be careful to remind him.

Yinzhen smiled and said: "Someone suggested that I should not let go of the fight, and some people suggested that I should follow the call and stand on Yinzhen's side, it seems that although you are not in the court, you can see it more thoroughly than them." ”

"I'm not looking thoroughly, I'm just empathizing with human feelings. Just imagine that ordinary people's families are not ashamed to fall into the well, let alone the Son of Heaven. I think that at this time, if someone supports the prince, finds out the origin of the prince's crimes, and says a fair word for the prince, it is a sign of loyalty to the emperor, instead of thinking that the prince has fallen and running to fight for himself. ”

Yin Zhen didn't speak again, just lowered his head and drank the stuffy wine, not knowing what to think.

On September 18, Emperor Kangxi personally wrote a memorial text, telling heaven and earth, Taimiao, and Sheji, and also transferred Yunren to Xian'an Palace for seclusion. (To be continued.) )
