Yunli got up and bowed deeply: "The emperor is wise, I believe that soon all the ministers will understand the emperor's hard work." ”

"Hopefully." Yin Zhen stroked his braids, the corners of his mouth were a little bitter, and then the next moment he returned to his usual indifference, "But as long as Zhejiang and Henan succeed, even if they oppose it again, and even leave an infamy after thousands of years, I will promote the new policy and prevent the people from being oppressed by those landlords and rich households, these people are the moths who really shake the foundation of my Qing Dynasty!" ”

Yunli hurriedly said: "The emperor is dedicated to the well-being of the people, and the history books of later generations are not yet praised, so how can he write infamy." On the contrary, all the people who have received the emperor's favor will be grateful for the emperor's benevolence and benevolence! ”

Yin Zhen waved his hand and said: "You don't need to comfort me, from the moment I stepped on the throne, I was ready to be scolded harshly and ruthlessly by future generations." In short, as long as I am ashamed! ”

Yunli solemnly clapped his sleeves and knelt down, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what the world thinks of the emperor, the younger brothers and the thirteenth brother all understand the emperor's hard work!" ”

"Get up!" Yin Zhen picked up Yunli with one hand, and said gently: "The old thirteen is not in good health, you have to help me more in the future, do you know the way?" ”

Yunli agreed: "The younger brother knows that the younger brother will be loyal to the emperor and the Qing Dynasty all his life, and will never live up to the emperor's trust." ”

"I believe in you!" After saying this, Yin Zhen said: "At this time, the palace gate has been closed, I asked Xiao Wu to clean up a place for you, and you will rest in the palace for the time being tonight." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" When he was about to leave, Yunli remembered something and said, "Is the emperor really ready to abolish the queen?" ”

Yin Zhen's face, which was quite gentle just now, immediately sank when she heard this, "What's the matter, you want to intercede for her?" ”

Yunli hurriedly said: "The younger brother doesn't dare, the younger brother just thinks that the matter of abolishing the queen is very important, and the impact is definitely not just the harem, the emperor should consider it carefully." ”

"I've thought it through." After that, he no longer gave Yunli a chance to continue, and said, "Okay, you can go down, and leave anything to say until tomorrow morning." ”

"Yes." Yunli knew that Yinzhen was already impatient, and he didn't say much, and withdrew from the Heart Nourishing Hall with Xiao Wu. After leaving, Yinzhen sat back in his chair a little tired, more things had happened that night than usual, and he was really tired.

Seeing him like this, Sixi whispered: "The emperor is tired after a hard night's work, it's better to rest early, and the slave will go to fetch water for you to clean your face." ”

"No need, I want to go to Chengqian Palace." Yin Zhen's words made Sixi stunned for a moment, and he hesitated: "At this time, I'm just afraid that Concubine Xi has already rested." ”

Yin Zhen didn't speak, just stood up, and seeing his action, Sixi knew that he had made up his mind, and he couldn't listen to persuasion, so he took a dead wind lamp to lead the way.

At that time, the night was already dark, the summer insects were screaming in the dark grass, Yang Hai, who was in charge of the night vigil, was dozing under the corridor, and vaguely heard the palace door ringing, and opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw the figure coming towards him, the sleepiness disappeared without a trace, Yang Hai knelt down in a panic, "The slave asks the emperor for peace, the emperor is auspicious!" ”

Yinzhen didn't stop, walked straight past him, all the way to the inner hall, through the door vaguely saw that the candlelight inside was still on, Yinzhen signaled Sixi to wait outside, and he pushed the door and walked in.

Ling Ruo didn't stop, leaning on the bed embroidered with a pair of small socks, seeing Yinzhen coming in, and about to get up, Yinzhen had already pressed her shoulder and said, "Sit, I can't sleep, so come and see you." ”

Ling Ruo put down the needle and thread in his hand and said, "The emperor can't sleep, but because of the affairs of the court?" The concubine just heard from the people below that the emperor had sent Prince Guo and Concubine Qin into the palace, I don't know what the important thing is? ”

Yin Zhen nodded, but he didn't say anything about this matter, but said: "When you and Yunli returned to Beijing, did Yunli risk his life and pick perilla grass for you?" ”

Ling Ruo was stunned and said, "How could the emperor know about this matter?" ”

"Someone told me today that such a big incident happened halfway, why didn't you tell me?" Yinzhen's voice couldn't tell whether it was distress or blame.

Ling Ruo lowered his head for a while before raising his eyes and said, "Does the emperor want to hear the truth?" ”

"If it's not the truth, why should I bother to listen to it." Listening to Yinzhen's words, Ling Ruo bit his lip and said: "I don't dare to deceive the emperor, the reason why I didn't mention it is because the concubine was afraid that the emperor would misunderstand, and thought that the concubine had a ...... with the seventeenth master."

Before she finished speaking, Yin Zhen had already taken over and said, "I'm afraid that I think you have a personal relationship, right?" ”

His words seemed to surprise Ling Ruo, and he stared at Yin Zhen with wide eyes, as if he wanted to ask why he guessed what he was thinking. Seeing Ling Ruo's expression, Yinzhen's mood suddenly improved, and she stroked her smooth satin-like hair and said, "Actually, you can tell me directly, I have experienced so many ups and downs with you, how can I not believe you." From the time you returned to me, you were the most trustworthy person in the world. ”

Ling Ruo's words made Ling Ruo extremely moved, and he said with a slight choked voice: "The concubine knows what she said, no matter what happens in the future, the concubine will tell the emperor." ”

"That's good." Yin Zhen nodded with satisfaction, and immediately saw Ling Ruo's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and chuckled: "Do you want to ask who told me?" ”

"Well, the concubine is indeed very curious, there are not many people who know about this matter, except for the concubine and Prince Guo, only his personal guards still have ......" Ling Ruo's voice froze, as if he had thought of something, and hesitated: "Did Ping'er tell the emperor?" ”

"It's what Ping'er said, but it's not telling me that someone is using Ping'er to make a big fuss and want to kill you." When he heard the last few words, Ling Ruo, who was originally leaning on Yinzhen's arms, sat up straight and blurted out, "Who is it?" Who wants to harm the concubine? ”

Yin Zhen patted her on the back and told the story in detail, and then said: "I might as well tell you directly, when the queen just finished talking to me about you and Yunli, I was indeed angry and suspicious, I really wanted to come to you to ask for clarification, but when I walked outside the Chengqian Palace, I suddenly figured it out, if you really have a personal relationship with Yunli, you can not return to the palace when I don't know that you are still in the world, and never let me know the news that you are still alive, but you are back, and Yunli will also send you back safe and sound." For that reason alone, I can't think of a reason to be suspicious. Besides, Jiarou is my flesh and blood, if you don't have me in your heart, why do you want to protect her in every possible way, wouldn't it be more straightforward to directly let her be stillborn?! What's more, I promised you that I would never doubt it; I didn't keep this promise because of my suspicions, but from the moment you returned to me, I told myself that I must never let my suspicions make you sad again. Now it seems that I have barely made it, and hopefully it is not too late. ”
