Chapter 17: The Wind Destroys the Green Tree

Yinren sat on the pear blossom chair, the younger brothers who had to treat themselves to death a month ago, at this time, each of them smiled at each other, sent priceless treasures, sent stunning beauties, and sent gentle and drizzly care, if there was no bloody rain a month ago, Yinren would definitely be deceived by their obedience. www.biquge.info But now, he doesn't believe in anything, including Huang Ama.

Kangxi forty-one years, spring, Xian'an Palace.

"Prince, if you want to decide, you will decide." Uncle Suo Etu persuaded.

"Uncle, that's my Emperor Ama, my dear Ama." Yinren replied in horror.

"Uncle is getting old, his health is getting worse and worse, with me can protect you for a day, in case I am not there one day, who can help you?"

"I don't think Huang Ama will fail me, after all, I am the crown prince of his own family."

"You think too simply, you are well-read, don't you know that there is a saying: three people become tigers? Is there another saying that everyone is golden? ”

"No, no!" Yinren shouted.

"My lord, you are confused, haven't you noticed that the emperor treats you differently now than before?"

Yinren sat on the chair with a butt, yes, Huang Ama has changed! He didn't want to believe it, but he couldn't believe it. This time, he and Huang Ama traveled to the south of the Yangtze River, he received a gift from his subordinates, and Huang Ama never said anything before, but this time the third brother passed the word and told him that Huang Ama was dissatisfied with the prince and said to the prince: Why is the prince always poor and luxurious, and the world will be his in the future, why is he still tempted by those unsightly wealth?

"I'm not going to do it! You will fall into my unfaithfulness, unfilial piety, and unrighteousness. ”

"Prince, the minister dared to ask: Is Tang Shizong Li Shimin an unfaithful, unfilial and unrighteous emperor?"

Yinren bowed his head and was silent.

He led the troops to force the palace and let Li Yuanchan be in him, that was disloyalty and unfilial piety, he killed his brother and brother in Xuanwumen, that is called injustice, but history did not abandon him, praised his merits and virtues, and even approached Yao Shun and Han Wu, but it was Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji who were killed who were stained by history. The emperor becomes the empress, as long as you govern the Qing Dynasty well, I think the history books will only record your great achievements, and will never record anything else. When the time comes, even the emperor will not blame you. ”

"Let me think again, think again."

"Can't wait any longer, your kindness will push you to the point of no return. Since ancient times, the abolished prince has never come to a good end! ”

……

"I'll go to Huang Ama to admit my mistake and send Yinggui over, and Huang Ama will forgive me."

"Ying Gui's death is small, but will the emperor believe that Ying Gui's embezzlement of river wages was not instructed by you? Don't forget, in addition to you and me, there are also big brothers and the old party of Mingzhu, the prince, we can't afford to lose! ”

"Big brother? Will he be? ”

"Is that so? Do you still use the old minister to remind you? Big Brother's forces are already able to compete with us. Last year, the eldest brother led his troops to the west and was defeated, but the general not only did not report it, but also let the adjutant commit suicide, don't you understand? They have already gained the power of the army, if we don't take Tianshu, what will be the consequences? The prince~" After speaking, my uncle's face was full of tears.

"And what do you want me to do?"

"I only need the talisman, you don't have to give it to me now, you go out in a while, I'll take it myself, and a day later, you will search again, look for the talisman, and then report it to the emperor for three days."

"Uncle!"

"Lao Chen did this, just in case, if Lao Chen failed this time, Lao Chen will bless you even in the underworld."

"Uncle, what do you want me to say?"

"The old minister doesn't ask for anything else, but only asks that after you ascend to the throne, you can pardon the children and grandchildren of the old minister."

Yinren trembled and held his uncle's hand, this uncle who always treated him wholeheartedly.

Uncle failed, Kangxi was given death in the forty-second year, he did not betray himself until he died, and his children and grandchildren also died to defend themselves. When they left, he didn't dare to ask Huang Ama to intercede for his uncle, let alone look at them one last time, because guilt made him almost crazy......

He hates, hates Big Brother, hates Mingzhu!

He wants revenge, he wants to kill the eldest brother, he wants to kill Mingzhu, he can't let his uncle die in vain.

Without his uncle, he could only rely on himself to win over the courtiers. Inadvertently, he opened another door - courtesy, righteousness, morality, princes and emperors, everything he learned before is useless here, all people only value their own interests, he is like a businessman, bargaining with his courtiers, he pays, they give him support. Gradually, he has a new understanding of human nature, the more noble the person on the surface, the higher the asking price, the so-called clear stream, just another way, he likes people who want money, followed by people who want power, these are easy for him, and people who want fame, he hates the most, their hypocrisy, the ultimate goal must be fame and fortune, this kind of person has a great appetite, and his influence in the court is also the greatest, he can only use all means to win them over, let them, and endure them. He didn't know how his uncle did it back then, but he was extremely disgusted, and sometimes he wanted to stop, but he couldn't repay the kindness of his uncle's family. In the self-blame and continuation, he was extremely painful, the previous world collapsed, and all that was left for him was devastation.

In the past five years, the only enemy in his eyes was the eldest brother, and when he was imprisoned, he realized that he was surrounded by enemies, the third brother, the eighth brother, the ninth brother, the tenth brother, the fourteenth brother, and maybe the fourth brother, the younger brother who was obedient on the surface. Fortunately, he had already defended him, and this was also because of his uncle, who failed because he trusted Ge Li too much! He won't repeat the mistakes of the past.

The people sent by the eighth brother are somewhat familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen them. If he went back ten years, he would be very happy, after all, this woman was the most outstanding of all the women sent. But now, if a jade man is placed in front of him, he will not be moved, and his heart is like ashes, I am afraid that this is the case. It's not because there are too many enemies, it's because he has lost his only support, his emperor Ama, when his uncle failed five years ago, Huang Ama was suspicious, but he still believed in him and doted on him, but now he ...... His memory went back to that terrible night, that day, he was restless, only the cold wind could make him comfortable, the closer he walked to the lake, there were people by the lake, under the moonlight, the woman was so moving, and then he didn't know what he did, until Huang Ama arrived, Huang Ama couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe it, but everything didn't matter, the important thing was that this woman was Huang Ama the new nobleman. Afterwards, he understood that someone had done something in his food, and he wanted to explain everything to Huang Amma, but Huang Ama didn't give him any chance, as long as Huang Ama believed it, you couldn't tell it all over your mouth. Uncle saw that Huang Ama had changed ten years ago, so he was willing to take risks to help himself.

Now, my uncle is gone, and the only one I can rely on is myself.

"How expensive, the person sent by the eighth master, where did you put it?"

"Master, do you want her to serve you tonight?"

"What's the nonsense? I'll just ask you where she is. ”

"Put it in the embroidery room for the time being, do you want it, I will immediately exchange her for tea in front of you?"

"I planted it in the hands of a woman last time, and now I send another woman, do you think you are stupid?"

"Yes, yes, but the slave thinks don't be in vain, it's not the prince who controls everything, you."

"Go, go, go, it's all gone, and it's still so filthy."

"Isn't the slave sharing the worries of the master?"

"You dog minion, I mean don't let her go near places like the study, and send a reliable person to spy on her and secretly see who she is in contact with." Yinren doesn't want to be drugged again, and slaves are sometimes terrible!

"Yes, the minion understands what you mean."

Qingyue struggled to carry the cloth, the information she needed, no need to ask, no need to set, let alone take time, women, can't hide secrets, especially where women gather when Qingyue is there.

"The Thirteenth Master Fu Jin is so beautiful."

"How do you know, I saw it when I gave the sachet to the crown princess."

"Good looks don't necessarily win a man's heart, look at our crown princess."

"Fang Fujin is still so favored?"

"Well, the prince went to the side Fujin room again yesterday."

"What for? Don't you all want to live? Dare to talk about the master in private. "Mama Ying came in, whipping what she could with a wooden stick.

The drama that is going to be staged every day, the girls exchange news collected from all over the place, communicate with each other, and Mama Ying screams and knocks on everything she can every day.

From here, Qingyue knew that the most favored person in the current prince's mansion was the Fuzhu Li clan, how expensive the most powerful father-in-law was, and the current enemy of the Fu Zhu Li clan was the Cheng family, who had fallen out of favor not long ago; The person who hates Duogui the most is Ming Zhida, who has been serving the prince since he was a child, and his qualifications are there, and he is upright, and he is often unaccustomed to how expensive he is, and often reprimands how expensive he is. The crown princess was personally chosen by Kangxi, beautiful and virtuous, virtuous to jealousy, these two words have never been related to her, just like a beautiful marionette.

There is another person who has to be mentioned - Han Bing, she successfully blended into the study and became the female official of the study, Qingyue really pity the prince, and wanted to find a silent person to keep the secret, but I didn't expect this person to be the biggest leaker, and I don't know if this is within Kangxi's calculations, after all, the son is better than the father. I hope that Hanbing will not become an obstacle for himself.

"The crown prince, the thirteenth master is visiting."

"Please, please."

Yinren wants to catch this younger brother, he is worth using.

"The younger brother greets the prince."

"Hurry up, old thirteen, you and the second brother still come to these false gifts?"

"Brother ......"

"Qi Yu Ye, the fourth master asks to see."

"Hehe, you guys really don't leave the middle, you don't leave the uncle."

"Second brother, I'm ......"

"The younger brother asks the prince for peace, and the prince is safe."

"Fourth brother, is there anything big? How are you in such a hurry? ”

"The military department urgently reported that Alabutan attacked and harassed the Horqin Mongol tribes."

"This thief! What do the two younger brothers think? ”

"Another Gurdan!" Yinxiang said angrily.

"I don't think Huang Ama will necessarily send troops this time." Yin Zhen said.

"Why?"

"I have discussed this matter with the fourth brother, the war in the northwest is about money and grain, and the fourth brother and I have checked the treasury in the household department, and the silver that can be used is only four million taels, which is far from enough to deal with Alabutan!"

"Huang Ama also knows about this, so I'm afraid he will only appease Alabutan and Korqin."

Treasury silver taels! Let a fine sweat break out on Yinren's head, in order to win over the courtiers, he can use a lot, judging from the current situation, Huang Ama may not tolerate himself. Yinzhen and Yinxiang looked at themselves blankly, Yinren suddenly understood that Alabutan was just an addiction, and the focus they wanted to talk about was repayment, and he had a feeling of being teased.

"I think Huang Ama has his own decision, let us make suggestions, just for reference." After speaking, he lifted the tea and took a sip.

Yinzhen and Yinxiang glanced at each other, and then made an excuse to come out.

"Fourth brother, I ......"

"Thirteenth brother, we can't mess up for Qingyue."

"But I, but I'm not reconciled, I want Qingyue back."

"I know, but now is not the time. Let me ask you, why did the eighth child give Qingyue to the prince, and what happened between her and the eighth child? Why did you give it to the prince? If the eighth child simply abandoned Qingyue, then why didn't Qingyue go back to your house? ”

"Fourth Brother ......"

"You have also seen the performance of the prince today, as soon as we mention the arrears of the treasury, he will serve tea and send it off, you and I have a big hurdle to pass, whether we can get by or not, it is a problem. Do you still have time to spend on your children's relationship? ”

"I was wrong, Fourth Brother." Yinxiang looked at Yinzhen guiltily.

"Everything has to wait for the right time."

"Yes, I listen to the fourth brother."

Watching Yinzhen and Yinxiang leave, Yinren remembered, where did he see that woman, in the thirteenth mansion, the woman who "molested" the old fourteen, she was very interesting. But what's more interesting is why the old thirteen people were sent by the eighth, and why is this? Perhaps, the old thirteen has already taken refuge in the eighth, impossible, the last time the old thirteen was imprisoned with him, they have become mortal enemies. Who is behind the old thirteen who controls everything? There is only one answer - the fourth, only he can drive the thirteenth, Yinren fell into deep thought.

Kangxi couldn't believe that there were only four million taels of silver in the treasury, and it was impossible to send troops. He could only bow the emperor's head to appease Alabutan and Korqin, and after removing Aobai, he thought that he didn't need to bow to his ministers in this life. But now, he had to bow his head. Anger filled Kangxi's heart, he wanted to let those national mantis get the end they deserved, otherwise he would be ashamed to be the king of a country.

"Fourth, what I asked you to check, how did you check?"

"Erchen has already finished calculating."

"I want a list."

"Emperor Ama, you let the fourth brother be responsible for raising funds for disaster relief in northern Jiangsu, the final list is compiled by the sons, this is the list, please take a look at the emperor."

Yinzhen didn't expect Yinxiang to come to this hand, and looked at the thirteenth with a dumbfounded gaze, that list, whoever took it out would offend all the courtiers, and at the same time, all the brothers. He knew that Thirteen was for his own good, but he couldn't sacrifice himself!

Kangxi saw Yinzhen's gaffe, he rarely lost his temper, it seems that their brothers also had a gap in their fight for merit.

Kangxi got the list, and immediately, not only his body was trembling, but his heart was trembling. There are his trusted favorites, his favorite prince, and his flesh and blood. The people who made him bow to his courtiers were none other than those he trusted, all the people around him, and his closest relatives. Kangxi put down the list weakly, looked down at his two sons, last time Yinzhen did his best to protect Yinxiang, this time Yinxiang died Yinzhen, are they really so brotherly? and Yinxi, he and Lao Jiu Lao Shi, are they really brothers? Father-son love can be given up, in the face of power, how long can brotherhood last?

"Is everyone on it?"

"Yes, what is on the books is registered here."

"What about what is not on the books?"

"I don't know."

"I don't know? You still come to me to ask for credit! Kangxi smashed the list back to Yinxiang.

"Huang Ama please calm his anger, this matter is the responsibility of the son, and the thirteenth brother doesn't know anything."

"It's not about the fourth brother, it's the son's inconsiderate thoughts, please punish the emperor."

Watching the two protect each other, "Go down, go down!" Kangxi understood that his anger should not be directed at these two sons, they had done their best, take out this list, and tomorrow, the entire court would oppose them. They just did what they asked them to do, and they did it even if they were embarrassed.

"You're messing around again! Can you consult with me before doing anything? Yin Zhen trembled with anger.

"Fourth brother, I just did what I had to do, this list will offend everyone, including Huang Ama, if it were me, you would do the same for me. Is there a better way to do it with you? ”

"I don't need it, I don't need it, I just want you to be good."

"Me too, as long as the fourth brother is good, I'm not afraid of anything!"

"You're not afraid, I'm afraid!"

"Fourth brother, we have been with the prince for many years, have you thought about the ending?"

……

"In any case, we shouldn't sink with him, fourth brother, I don't think it's worth it! Now, only by keeping you can I have hope. ”

"No, I'll keep you."

"Fourth brother, you can't keep me, even if I don't have today's list, I have fallen out of favor with Huang Ama last time, and besides, I helped the crown prince, and I have become the target of public criticism. Also, what gives you an advantage over me is that you still have Concubine De! ”

It seems that what Thirteen said is reasonable, Yinzhen acquiesced, he shouldn't be rash and will ruin them.

"Li Dequan, give me the list."

"Yes, master."

Looking at the list again, Kangxi knew that he needed to make a decision.

The matter of asking for the national debt was given to the fourth and thirteenth children.

Yinren received the holy decree, it was the fourth and thirteenth children who cleaned up the treasury, he breathed a sigh of relief, if he gave it to others, he probably wouldn't even have a chance to turn the tables.

"How expensive, how much money do we have on our account?" Yinren asked.

"And seventy or eighty thousand."

"What? My dignified crown prince of the Qing Kingdom only has 70,000 or 80,000 pieces of silver? ”

"Master, this is still a minion's careful calculation."

"Go down, no one can use this silver without my consent."

"Yes."

Yinren walked to Cheng's house decadently, he hadn't been here for a long time.

"Master, you're here!" Cheng's face was pleasantly surprised.

"Here, you pick up Ya and sing me a song." Cheng's singing voice is so good, he needs to think about it carefully.

"Yes, the slave has been practicing "Guangling San" for a long time."

"Really? Let me hear it. ”

The song is a good song, the song is a good song, and the voice is excellent. But he didn't have the heart to listen, his heart was on money, how could he fill the gap of 600,000 taels.

"Master, do you have anything on your mind?" Cheng asked gently.

"I'm thinking about silver."

"Silver? How much do you want? ”

"I want a lot."

"Maybe the slave has a way."

"What's the solution?"

"The slave's godfather is a salt merchant, if he can share the prince's worries, I think it should be no problem for the godfather to donate 200,000 taels."

"Then what does your godfather ask me for?" Yinren knew that pies would not fall from the sky, and Cheng often relied on his love for her to ask for help, and he deliberately alienated her after he came out of solitary confinement.

"Godfather wants to contribute to the country."

"Businessmen can't be officials, this is the law of the country."

"It's not him, it's his brother-in-law, who wants to ask for an official position."

"Do you have merit and fame?"

"Yes, he's a candidate."

"Then I'll send someone to do it tomorrow."

"Prince Xie, if the prince can give him the governor of the Imperial Court, my godfather is willing to add another 50,000."

"Rifan Yuan? What does he want to do? ”

"In addition to selling salt, my godfather sometimes sells tea to England and rice from North Korea."

"You wait for news." Yinren walked out of Cheng's house.

There are more than 300,000 left, how to get together?

Qingyue is waiting in the garden, and at this time, the crown princess will definitely go for a walk in the garden.

came, Qingyue hid behind the rockery and threw out the prepared meat balls, the princess's Huahua couldn't help but be tempted, and ran to her, Qingyue's hands were coated with lard, and the puppy Huahua couldn't stop licking her hands.

"Flowey, Flowey."

Hooked~

"Slave and maid to the crown princess, this is your dog."

"Flowey doesn't have a good temper, but it seems to like you."

Huahua licked Qingyue's hand nostalgically.

"The crown princess has won the prize." Qingyue replied with her mouth, and asked herself in doubt: Is she complimenting you?

"You're new here?"

"Back to the crown princess, yes, the slave maid works in the embroidery room."

"Embroidery room? Mama, let Qingyue come to my room to serve Huahua. The crown princess spoke.

Binggo! This is the answer that Qingyue wants.

Eh, why is power good? Qingyue finally understood, so good that the dog of the crown princess had someone to serve her, this dog, the dog was powerful, and he dared to lose his temper with her, Qingyue couldn't wait to destroy it! A dog can't cure her, so she has to walk with her head. The offensive of the big stick and carrots, three days later, Huahua surrendered, Qingyue let it sit, it didn't dare to stand, Qingyue let it run, it didn't dare to go. After another month of training, Huahua played a lot of tricks, could say goodbye, hurdle, and turn in circles, making the princess happy, and enjoying many things in Qingyue at once.

"Why are you approaching the crown princess?" Han Bing asked.

"I just want to take it easy, it's much better to serve a dog than to a man." Qingyue replied.

After saying that, neither of them looked at each other and left.

At this time, an old woman was with Mama Jin, and the old woman pulled Mama Jin and asked, "Mama Jin, Qingyue and the Thirteenth Master and Eighth Master, what is going on?" ”

"Back to the master, the thirteenth and eighth masters both like Qingyue."

"Then how did Qingyue get to the prince's mansion?"

"Returning to the master, it seems that Qingyue doesn't want the two masters to give birth to her anymore. When he was in Black Mountain Villa, the fourth master also warned Qingyue. ”

"Fei Seyao is also really, Qingyue is too beautiful to do things for us, and I don't know what he thinks. Mama Kim, why don't you speak? You're an old man. ”

"Fei Seyao is probably trying to use a beauty trick, but the slave doesn't understand, since the eighth master has affection for Qingyue, why did he give it to the thirteenth master."

"I also asked Mama Gui, it's not the Beatitute Jin's fault!"

"Say something that shouldn't be said, Beatitude Jin is too restless."

"The emperor thinks so too."

"Is the emperor okay?"

"Okay, I'll keep talking about you."

"Eh, the minions are not worthy of the emperor's memory."

"I came here in person this time, there is another reason, the emperor wants you to rest, if you want, just come out of the Thirteenth Master's Mansion, the emperor will arrange everything for you."

"I won't come out, the life of the old slave in this life has long been the emperor's."

"Of all the people who have arranged, I am most assured of you."

"The master has a good reputation, ask the emperor for me."

"You~"

After a while, the old woman came out with a cloak that covered her countenance, and her figure disappeared into the mist.
