To be sure, the Forbidden City is a great place to visit, especially for first-time visitors like Julia.

It's a pity that Julia didn't feel much joy and novelty during the whole process, because with this group of elder brothers, even she was infected with that sad and helpless atmosphere.

The weather is very good, it is a typical small spring, the temperature is even close to the end of summer, and in the palace in the afternoon, it is so hot that people can't even wear coats.

They walked and stopped, passing by the courtyard of each palace, for most of the houses were fenced with ropes to prevent people from entering. Occasionally, they could hear the group guide explaining the inside of the palace on a loudspeaker, and at that time, Julia could see the obvious confusion and loss on their faces.

To make matters worse, they could often hear the tour guide talking about several of them.

“…… Forcing the palace! What's that scenario?! A tour guide said spittle, pointing to the hall, "The Eight Masters are below here, the black pressure is covered with people who are all his, only one step away, you think about the scene, Prince Yi can't go to court due to illness, and Yongzheng is left alone, sitting alone on the top, he looks down like this, what is the feeling in his heart!" ”

Brother Ten frowned and said, "What is he talking about?" ”

"It's all!" Brother Jiu was so angry that he even made his voice a little louder, "You saw it with your own eyes?" You see me eight...... Seeing the people of the Eight Masters forcing the palace?! ”

When the tour guide heard Brother Jiu's voice, he was also displeased: "That's history!" Do I still need to see history with my own eyes? ”

"! You shit history! Brother Jiu was even angrier, he pointed at the tour guide. You and I ...... Are you a worship when you are an eighth elder brother? Is it Dolgon? He doesn't have a single soldier in his hand, how can he force the palace! ”

The crowd of onlookers saw that the tourists had quarreled with the tour guide, and they were all in high spirits and gathered around.

The tour guide was challenged to his authority in public, and his face turned blue with anger for a while: "This is the ...... of Qing history"

"Phew! A good history of the Qing Dynasty has been read into the belly of a dog! Brother Jiu jumped to his feet and scolded, "Who are you fooling?" Recognize a few words and come out to show off? Wipe the milk from the corners of your mouth first! ”

Yinxiang saw more and more people, he became nervous, and hurriedly dragged Brother Jiu: "Brother Jiu, don't make trouble!" Let's go, these people are all around......"

The tour guide was still arguing to himself: "It was three hundred years ago, how do you know if there is one!" ”

Brother Jiu pointed at Yinzhen: "I just know!" If you don't believe me, ask my fourth brother! He's the master! ”

Everyone was in an uproar!

Julia covered her face and whispered, "It's over!" Old ten, old thirteen. Hurry up! Drag you Brother Jiu, let's run! ”

Those two have to be ordered. I can't help but say that Brother Jiu is running all the way!

The group ran out for a while, and then stopped, and Julia looked back to see that the crowd of onlookers had not followed.

She sighed: "Alas. Li Kui was actually driven away by Ghost Li. ”

"What the hell!" Brother Jiu is still scolding. "I'll just say it's not right. Now all cats and dogs have been put in! Dare to stand in the Taihe Hall and make nonsense! That's the Taihe Temple! Bastard, fucking forcing the palace...... He even got the place where he went to the court by mistake! ”

Yinxiang said with a tired face: "Forget the ninth brother, the people of later generations are not responsible for making it up." We can't control people's mouths. ”

Yin Zhen also blamed: "Lao Jiu, you too, what are you arguing with a modern person?" ”

"How can I not be noisy?" Brother Jiu's eyes were red, "They are slandering!" Slander me and starlings! He slandered us as rebels and thieves! It's a notoriety for the ages! Fourth brother, do you really believe that the two of us will force the palace?! ”

"I don't believe it." Yin Zhen said lightly, "But if you fight with people there, it will only cause trouble." It's useless for you to fight a hundred times, they don't understand that. ”

Julia comforted: "No way, there have been too many Qing Piercing Dramas in recent years, and a few of you are too popular, so you are talked about everywhere you go." Ninth Master, you can bear with it. I don't know if it's your fourth brother who will be gossiped about next. ”

Brother Jiu muttered for a long time, and his anger slowly subsided, and the group continued to walk forward slowly.

It was originally their family affair, privacy, Julia thought to herself, but now it has become gossip in people's mouths. Not only do they have to endure the fingers and fingers of future generations, but they also have to silently listen to those unreliable additions, and no one can stand this matter.

Julia's guess had not passed a quarter of an hour, and soon the words were clear, and then they passed a courtyard surrounded by a large number of people, and Julia leaned over to hear it, where a guide happened to be talking in a daze:

“…… Concubine De originally wanted to talk to her youngest son, but where would she have thought that it was not the younger son outside the tent, but the eldest son? As soon as she said this, the relationship between mother and son was over, who could stand her mother saying that she was not good in front of her? As the saying goes, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, but when it comes to this concubine, it doesn't seem to be the case. Why does she dislike her eldest son so much? Those of us who come after us will not know. It's just that the mother and son have been suspicious since then. ”

The tour guide's voice stopped, as if it was deliberately trying to create an effect, and the accompanying tourists talked about it.

Then he continued: "Later, the fourteenth elder brother was imprisoned, and Concubine De interceded with the eldest son. What kind of character is Yongzheng? It was not good for her mother to come to intercede, Concubine De knew that there was no hope, and since then she has been sick for a long time, and it didn't take long for her to breathe. There are many theories about the cause of Wu Ya's death, some say that she was forced to death by the fourth elder brother, some say that she was angry and angry, and some say that she committed suicide by hanging herself from a beam. ”

The discussion of tourists is even louder, and some people say: "Since ancient times, the emperor was ruthless and forced his mother to death, which is not something that ordinary people can do." ”

Someone laughed and said: "Why don't you be the emperor?" ”

There was another burst of laughter.

Julia glanced at Yinzhen timidly, and she found that Yinzhen's lips had turned gray!

Yinxiang grabbed Yinzhen's arm hard: "Go!" Fourth brother, don't stay here! Let's get out! ”

Yin Zhen stood there stiffly, but did not move. He looked at the row of glass windows in front of him. The interior was stopped by the staff with a rope that read "Visitors stop".

Beyond the rope, he could see the darkened tables and chairs, the carved cabinets, and the bed covered with embroidered brocade quilts......

"This is where my mother lives." He whispered.

Julia's chest ached, and she whispered, "Let's go, Ah Zhen, don't stay here." ”

Brother Ten didn't know what to think of, silently shed tears, and Brother Nine rolled up his sleeves to go up and beat the tour guide. Narrowly escaped by Julia. Yinxiang grabbed Yinzhen's arm again: "Let's go, fourth brother." Don't stay here, let's go out and breathe. ”

Yinzhen was dragged by Yinxiang and Julia like this, and then stumbled out of the palace courtyard.

The sun was shining brightly, and I walked outside. Julia looked up. Looking at the wide palace square in front of you. Under the violent light, there were tall red walls on all sides, and they were cramped. Looking down, there are endless green floor tiles, not even a tree. Overhead, there is a dome like a lid.

She suddenly remembered a joke that someone was disgusted with bad luck and cut down the only tree in the yard, saying that in this way the word "sleepy" was cracked. Later, the neighbor told him that without the tree, wouldn't there be only "prisoners" left?

"Fourth brother, don't listen to their nonsense, I don't believe there will be such a thing, Concubine De has always loved you, last time you followed Huang Ama out of the palace to inspect, didn't she send someone to send you your favorite chestnut cake?"

Yinxiang's voice brought Julia back to her senses, and she quickly persuaded: "Yes, don't listen to those guys." They don't have any reliable ones, they don't tell your story like a Hollywood movie, how can they get money? ”

Yin Zhen just stared at the palace gate blankly, and then gently squirmed his lips: "Let's go......"

That afternoon, when the five of them finally got tired of walking, they found a row of chairs against the wall and sat down, all of them deflated like balloons punctured by needles.

For a while, no one spoke, and everyone quietly looked at the red wall in front of them, and they all felt that they should not come this time.

“…… Why are we coming back? Brother Ten suddenly whispered, "The soul floated back by itself, but it couldn't find a place to stay." Unbearable to death. ”

"No, it's been three hundred years since I died, and my bones are rotten to ashes." Yinxiang said stupidly, "This is the palace, but it's not the palace." I really don't understand, why did I come back? ”

"There was no one, and the house didn't look right, it always felt like a fake. I always suspect that as soon as I turn a corner, I can see a few familiar people, Li Dequan, Master Zhang...... You say, I obviously followed the old path before, but this time, why can't I see anyone? ”

Yin Zhen stared at the red wall opposite, his face was blue but he didn't say a word.

Brother Jiu couldn't sit still, he jumped up: "Brothers, don't be so depressed!" Let's live a good life now, don't talk about ghosts! What else has been dead for three hundred years...... Who died?! I'm going to live a lot of energy! Come on, I'm going to buy something to drink, and look at how hot it is - who wants to freeze Coke? ”

Yinxiang stretched out his hand weakly, and Brother Ten blew his nose: "I want to ...... I also wanted something cute, vanilla-scented. ”

Brother Nine glared at him: "I really can't forget to eat at any time!" Craving ice cream? Come with me! ”

Brother Ten immediately said with a bitter face: "Brother Jiu, my leg hurts......"

Yinxiang sighed and stood up: "I'll go with Brother Jiu." What about the fourth brother? What to drink? ”

Yin Zhen didn't make a sound, only shook his head.

When they got up to leave, Julia looked at Yinzhen cautiously: "Ah Zhen, are you okay?" ”

Now, she really regrets coming to Beijing this time.

Yin Zhen didn't answer her question, but stretched out his hand and pointed to the small palace opposite: "That's my adoptive mother's yard, I didn't have long after I was born, and I was brought here." ”

Julia was taken aback, she couldn't help but take a closer look at the small courtyard of people on the opposite side, it was an ordinary-looking courtyard, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a place where a generation of emperors grew up.

"But I'm starting to doubt that now." Yinzhen continued, "I doubt that I am still Yinzhen, am I mistaken? Is it really like what Lao Shi said, it's just that the soul has returned? ”

The tenth elder brother was beside him, and said worriedly: "Fourth brother, you are not mistaken, you are still my fourth brother, not someone else." I can testify. ”

Yin Zhen turned his head to look at him, he smiled bitterly, reached out and touched the head of the tenth elder brother.

Julia was on the side, and her heart couldn't help but be sour: Look at what they entered the palace this time, it's too sad! (To be continued.) )
