Yin Zhen looked at the vermilion pane and said: "It's not a matter of transporting grain to Fuzhou once or twice, if there is really a reef, it should have been discovered early, how can it be delayed until now, and it has sunk not one or two, it is all grain ships, old thirteen, don't you think there is a problem in it?" ”

Yun Xiang's eyelids jumped suddenly, and he said nervously, "The emperor suspects that the shipwreck is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster?" ”

Yin Zhen turned around and bit the word and said: "Yes, I suspect that everything is caused by someone behind the scenes, and today's court, it is also very strange, how old is Hongli, although he is smart and studious, he has only been in the household department for two months, and everything has not been learned. ”

If Hongshi is here, he will definitely fly out of the sky because of Yinzhen's words, Yinzhen is really sharp and shrewd in the government, and they are so hidden, or Yinzhen sees that something is wrong.

"So the emperor deliberately followed the intention and let the fourth elder brother serve as this messenger, and only said that he would send a thousand soldiers to escort him, just to lure the snake out of the hole?"

"Yes, I suspect that their purpose is Hongli, and as for the intention, I won't know until I catch it." Although it was his own decision, when he mentioned this name, Yin Zhen was still a little worried, and he only hoped that his decision was not wrong.

Yun Xiang nodded, and said: "Even so, why did the emperor send the second elder brother too, it is already a risk to go to one person, and it is not even more dangerous to go to two?" ”

Yin Zhen didn't answer and asked, "Old Thirteen, what do you think of Hongshi?" ”

As soon as Yun Xiang showed hesitation, Yin Zhen said: "Since I asked you, you just tell the truth, there is no need to avoid anything." ”

Yun Xiang agreed and pondered: "The younger brother used to see that the second elder brother was not practical enough, and he was a little impetuous, but he seems to have gotten better recently, especially when he is willing to take the initiative to stand up and go to Fuzhou today, which really impresses the younger brother." ”

Yin Zhen nodded noncommittally, and said after a while: "Although Hongshi recommended himself as Ren Qincha, I still have some fear in him, but this is human nature, and I can't blame him." After a pause, he continued: "In the past, Hongshi often targeted Hongli, and did not know how to care about the brotherhood and brotherhood, but now although it has changed a little, it is still far from enough, I hope that they can be like me and you in the future, not with Yunxi. ”

"The second elder brother is still young, and when he is older, he will naturally understand the importance of his brother's siblings, not to mention that the second elder brother has always listened to the emperor's words and has never been to the eighth brother again."

"That's it, I want to give him this chance." Yin Zhen stroked the back of his head and said: "Once some things are formed, no matter how many years have passed, they are both my sons, I don't want to see a scene of fratricide, so I take advantage of the fact that the gap is not deep now, and Hongshi is gradually sensible, so that their brothers can understand and understand the importance of supporting each other, so that no matter who succeeds to the throne as emperor in the future, the other will fully support it." ”

Hearing this, Yun Xiang finally understood Yinzhen's plan, and said: "If the two elder brothers know about the painstaking efforts of the Emperor Dao, they will definitely be moved. ”

Yin Zhen smiled and said: "As Amma, it is right to worry about my son, there is nothing to be moved, I just hope that my thoughts will not be in vain, then I will be satisfied." Speaking of this, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's get back to the point, do you estimate that so many people can be transferred from the Fengtai camp, and not only people, but also these people are reliable." ”

"Some of the people that my brother has brought before are quite loyal and can be relied on, and under the patchwork, four thousand people should be able to do it. The emperor can rest assured that the courtiers will give them a gag order, and later the courtiers will draw up a list and send it to the emperor for seeing. ”

Yin Zhen shook his head and said, "No need, if you say loyalty, you must be loyal, I can trust you." When the time came, they took a boat arranged by me and went south along the road. In addition to these people, I will send another secret guard to follow, and I must protect the safety of both of them. ”

Seeing that Yinzhen even used the secret guard, Yunxiang was greatly relieved, the secret guard was all a person who was chosen by thousands of people, good at concealing and hiding, and strong in martial arts, enough to block ten, it was a force in Yinzhen's hand that although it was not well known, it was definitely not to be underestimated.

After thinking for a while, Yun Xiang said: "Since this trip is not only for disaster relief, but also to lure the snake out of the hole, does the emperor want to talk to the two elder brothers, so that they can be prepared." ”

Yin Zhen also had this plan, and said one by one: "When everything is arranged, I will tell them." ”

After discussing a few more words, Yunxiang said goodbye and left, and when Yinzhen was about to approve the fold that had just been presented today, he remembered something, put the fold that had not yet been opened to the side, and said to Sixi who was waiting on the side: "Go to Chengqian Palace." ”

"Huh!" Sixi hurriedly opened the door and followed Yinzhen to Chengqian Palace, but when he got there, he didn't see Ling Ruo's figure, and when he asked, he knew that she was in the small kitchen.

Seeing that Yinzhen wanted to go to the small kitchen, Sixi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the small kitchen is stuffy, so let's go and invite Concubine Xi to come over." ”

"I'll just go myself." Seeing Yinzhen say this, Sixi had to follow him to the small kitchen, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Ling Ruo instructing the palace people to change the fire on the stove to a low heat and boil it slowly, so as not to have enough heat.

Sixi's push of the door didn't make Ling Ruo, who was busy inside, care about it, until the kitchen was suddenly quiet and something was wrong, and she raised her head, then she saw Yinzhen standing opposite, and said suddenly: "Your Majesty, you ......"

As he spoke, he wanted to salute, but his hands were still stained with white flour, and he wanted to pat it, but the flour was raised, and his eyes were fascinated and he couldn't see clearly.

Ling Ruo raised his hand and was about to rub it, but he was caught, and Yinzhen's voice came from his ears, "Rubbing it like this will only make your eyes more uncomfortable, and you have to wash it off with water to be comfortable." ”

After that, he took Ling Ruo to the water tank, personally scooped a scoop of water, and carefully cleaned Ling Ruo's eyes.

After washing and drying, Ling Ruo opened his eyes, and sure enough, there was no trace of discomfort, and seeing that Yinzhen's hands were still wet, he took a hand towel and wiped his hands dry, and said in his mouth: "Why did the emperor come here at this time, and the concubine still wanted to wait for the sour plum soup and snacks to be sent to the emperor." ”

"I miss you, so I'll come and have a look, and besides, wouldn't it be better to come and eat here?" Because of something in his heart, Yinzhen's smile was a little uncomfortable.

Ling Ruo didn't notice this, and said lightly: "The concubine let Shui Xiu watch here, and then serve it to the emperor to enjoy." ”
