Chapter Eighty-Three: Succession
The palace has always been a leaky wall, and soon the news that the emperor rewarded the general Yinyu of Fuyuan spread throughout the palace and into the hearts of many well-intentioned people.
Qianmen Street has always been a prosperous place in the capital, so it has always been a crowd of people, there is a big teahouse on this Qianmen Street, which is the gathering place of those clans' yellow and red belts, and has always liked to inquire about news and talk in the teahouse, so it is often people coming and going, and the momentum is boiling.
Its uncle Changheng set up a bird cage and walked into the teahouse step by step, and as soon as he entered, Xiao Er came to take the cage and followed behind.
"Yo, Uncle Changheng! Why did you come so early today?" Some people in the teahouse applauded, and some people stood up and saluted, and many people looked at Changheng with humility and respect.
The circle in this capital is also so big, because most of these clans are also familiar with each other, so they are also some of their masters in the teahouse. The reason why they respect Changheng so much is because this Changheng is amazing, the ancestor is still the branch of Daishan, and later came to his father's generation, although the family is in the middle of the road, but after all, he has a deep heritage, and he is still a well-known Changheng uncle in the capital, plus he is well-informed, many people are holding this master.
Chang Heng didn't raise his eyes to look at those people, he just arched his hand casually, and it was considered to have said hello, but these people have always known that this master is well-informed, so how can they let it go easily? They sat around together, and Changheng spit out some fresh news, so that he could pick it up and chew it back to increase his face.
Chang Heng still enjoys this kind of situation in his heart, no matter what his family has become, but he is still a royal descendant, the Miao descendant of the Eight Banners, coughed slightly at the moment, and the good deeds were quiet together, waiting for Chang Heng to speak.
"Just the recent news, that's the sea has gone, and the master will pick up two important things for the big guys to hear." Changheng did not shy away from it, and immediately opened his mouth and said a shocking word.
"Next year, our emperor's 60th anniversary of his accession to the throne will be celebrated, and the fourteenth master will be rewarded at this time, and he also said a word to let the fourteenth elder brother return to Beijing as soon as possible, what does this mean? It means that the Holy One has already made a request! ”
The idler who was sitting in a circle next to him suddenly seemed to be beaten with chicken blood, and tried to say in a tense and mysterious tone: "Isn't it Lichu? There was an uproar, and everyone seemed to know something terrible.
Stand up! This is a big deal, since they were young, they have experienced the cruel battle of the Kangxi Dynasty to seize the heir, how many elder brothers have been folded in? From the crown prince, to the eldest brother, to the Eight Masters, there are too many people who have been involved in this incident to the point of being shattered.
Looking at the eyes of the people around him, Chang Heng took a sip of tea with satisfaction, and was about to clear his throat to continue speaking, but someone asked on the side, "Before...... Didn't it mean that the emperor instructed the fourth master, and praised the fourth master for his diligence and strength. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was amused, and Chang Heng also sneered, "It's a shame that you are still a red belt, but you don't know anything about it." This elder brother of the Manchu Dynasty, whoever is the prince will not be able to turn the king of cold noodles. ”
What the cold face king said is the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, this is not a good word, but the Manchu minister's judgment on Yinzhen, because Yinzhen has a cold and hard personality, and he usually has a straight face, and the whole court does not support him, so he also got such a nickname, in the eyes of everyone, whoever gets a big position cannot be the fourth master.
Seeing that no one dared to refute again, Chang Heng became more and more proud in his heart, and said again: "Not to mention that in yesterday's court meeting, the fourth master made nonsense and made Huang Shang unhappy. ”
Someone else asked: "There have been ups and downs in this court recently, what is going wrong?" ”
Chang Heng hated at this time: "What else can it be?" The Chu barbarians in the south made a fuss, humming, not to mention the rebellion, but they still dared to raise the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, and called themselves the governor of the capital? Bah! This Man Pi is really incompetent, and he has not extinguished the bandits so far, if it is delayed until next year, he is afraid that Man Pi's head will have to change his home! ”
This remark really shocked everyone, and some people sighed: "What do you say is the way of the world, our emperor is the best emperor in the world, not much stronger than the mediocre monarch of the previous dynasty?" ”
Someone laughed and said: "I don't know the origin of this Chu barbarian, but our Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, isn't it easy to destroy this group of thieves?" ”
Everyone applauded, but the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, but before everyone knew it, the two middle-aged people sitting in the corner stood up and walked out.
One of them, surnamed Li Mingwei, donated a vacant post from Wupin in the fifty-sixth year of Kangxi, and later left the door and voted under Yinzhen, so he was promoted, temporarily residing in the position of Hubu Langzhong, and the other is today's protagonist Fourth Master Yinzhen, but his face became more and more cold, as if everyone in the world owed him a few dollars.
After the two returned to Prince Yong's mansion, Li Wei was accustomed to looking at people's eyes, and immediately flattered him: "Fourth master, how can what these idlers say be serious?" The emperor has remembered everything he has done to you, how can he be convicted for his words? ”
Yin Zhen is also a person who has been a prince for so many years, so naturally he will not be awkward all the time, but he has always been worried about one thing - that is, the Holy Family.
It's not just the minister who wants a holy family, but the son actually wants a holy family, let's take a look at the prince and the eldest brother, look at the eighth brother and the thirteenth elder brother, who wasn't a lot of supporters back then? The result? It's not that those who are circled are circled, and those who are abolished are abolished.
Yin Zhen's inner depression could not be resolved, so he immediately invited Wu Sidao again, and told all these previous reasons, and in the end, he was still angry and said: "I said before, you can't relax Chu Wei for half a point, but now that you have learned a lesson, you still don't change the previous method, what if you lose again?" ”
Wu Sidao's face was slightly calm, he raised his hand slightly, stopped Yinzhen with his thin fingers, and sighed: "Fourth master, don't think about it like this now, you are doing it against the emperor!" ”
"No matter whether Chu is successful or not, it will not affect the overall situation, even if Huguang is in chaos? There is chaos in this world, but now on the road to succession, the fourteenth elder brother is really closer than you! ”
Wu Sidao was a little distressed, "The top priority is to reverse the image of the fourth master in the emperor's heart, only the immortality of the saint can ensure that you have the strength to compete!" The fourteenth elder brother will return to Beijing before the end of the year at the latest, so he should prepare early!"
Yin Zhen was a little silent, although he would calm down and worship the Buddha every day, but in essence he was still a person with a fierce and cold temperament, and he couldn't bear it at all in many things, just like yesterday's upward speech, which was very unwise in itself, thinking of this, he had to sigh.
