Qin'an Hall is located in the middle of the imperial garden, the palace enshrines the Emperor Zhenwu, except for the first day of the first day of each year in the dynasty to set up a dojo here to pray for blessings, the rest of the leisure time is taken care of by the inner servants and Taoist officials, so the Qin'an Palace is not fast to sprinkle and sweep, no one picks up the coniferous leaves, and let the wall ambush the green vines. Compared with the palaces above and below the golden walls outside, if it were not for the fine carving of Dan Majesty in front of the platform, it really made people have the illusion of being in the Taoist temple.

At this time, the waiter on duty was leaning on the door of the palace to take a break, and heard the sound of 'clicking' treading water from far and near, and the waiter yawned, thinking that it was the palace attendant who came to pass the message, and when the person approached, the waiter was stunned, rubbed his eyes, and repeatedly confirmed that it was the eldest brother Yinyu.

But how could he be so embarrassed?

The chamberlain couldn't help but look at him, although he had an umbrella in his hand, he was no different, his clothes were soaked, his originally handsome face became pale and weak at this moment, only the white jade on his waist looked particularly dazzling under the rain wash. The chamberlain couldn't help but ask tentatively: "I don't know what happened to the eldest brother?" ”

"Punished!" Yin Yu said angrily. In fact, the waiter asks a lot more, what good thing can he do in such a situation? The chamberlain didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he had to step aside.

The path runs from the front hall to the apse. The light in the hall was dim, and shadows loomed on the floor tiles. The rain of the paper umbrella in his hand dripped down the umbrella bone, which Liang Jiugong quietly stuffed into his arms after Xuan Ye left.

He never understood, obviously he was the eldest son of the emperor, and he worked harder, but Xuan Ye preferred the East Palace. Falling into the woods, although there is a tree, but he is not the flower on the mat, it is about the person who the fence falls in the dung.

In the end, he is not the eldest son, and his Ednie cannot be compared with Empress Renxiao.

It was in the early spring many years ago, Yinhe suddenly vomited blood, and his body was covered with ecchymosis overnight, which seemed to be gnawed by mosquitoes, and the itching did not stop, and it turned bright red when he scratched it, which was shocking. The Tai Yi diagnosed purpura (1), which was caused by blood fever, and after a few patches of medicine, there was no sign of improvement, but it became more and more serious as time went by, and the Tai Yi was helpless.

At that time, not long after the death of Empress Renxiao's eldest son Chenghu, Xuan Ye was grief-stricken, and he didn't give any hope for Yinchu, and he didn't even visit him. Ordered someone to prepare the coffin, just waiting for Yinyu to die.

Where is Concubine Hui willing to believe in her fate, Chengqing has only been dead for a year, is it necessary for another son to be like this? So she searched for all kinds of home remedies, took care of Yinzhen day and night, and finally woke up in the early morning half a month later. All the spots on his body have also disappeared.

And just like that, he survived. Since then, he has never been sick again.

After this incident, Concubine Hui only wished that Yinhe would be stable and stable in this life, but with the prince's dominance and the discord between father and son, Yinhe became more and more disgusted with the royal family's indifference.

Early one morning, on the way to the study, Yinren accidentally bumped into Yinren scolding the palace people, and listened carefully, it turned out that the waiter mistakenly sprinkled the water in the flower on the corner of Yinren's clothes, Yinren was furious, and was about to kill the waiter.

Yin Yu couldn't help but step forward to defend the waiter: "It's just that he didn't notice it for a while, why should His Highness bother with him?" ”

Yinren glared at him viciously and said, "This prince wants to deal with him." ”

"You ......"

"Come on, clean up this slave who doesn't know whether to live or die." Yinren gave an order, and the attendants behind him rushed up, and their fists hit him like raindrops, and the man curled up in a ball, holding his head and begging for mercy again and again: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the slave knows that he is wrong......

Yinchu was stopped, but he couldn't save him. The blood of the chamberlain soaked on the cobblestones, presenting a bleak scene.

When Yinren arrived in the study, Yinren was already sitting in his position, as if nothing had happened, Yinren was so angry when he saw his appearance, he couldn't help but step forward and tear up Yinren, how did he know that Yinren was unreasonable, and he fell on the wooden table and fainted.

A cool breeze blew outside the window, the slightest coldness blew so that the candle flame swayed, Yinhe looked down and saw a snake hovering near the mouse, it kept writhing around the pillar, trying to wait for the opportunity to eat the mouse, but the mouse resisted desperately, and the snake finally fell exhausted and fell on the floor tiles. This scene was deeply imprinted in Yinyu's mind.

Just when Yinhe was about to return to Qiandongtou (2), an attendant came in a hurry, and Yinhe knew that he was in the palace of Concubine Hui.

The waiter said: "Concubine Hui Niangniang invites the eldest brother to go to Zhongcui Palace." ”

By this time, the rain had stopped, and the imperial city had been rejuvenated by the rain. Numb due to the long-term bending of his legs, Yinhe walked to Zhong Cui Palace with great difficulty, and his clothes were cold against his body, and he couldn't help but shudder. Just about to cross the palace gate, he fell headlong at the gate of Zhong Cui Palace.

Yinhe was woken up by the child's crying, it was the afternoon of the second day, he turned his head and saw that Concubine Hui was coaxing the child in her arms very gently, Yinhe was about to speak, Concubine Hui noticed that he woke up and stepped forward and said, "Child, you are finally awake." ”

"E-......" Yinyu stopped talking, looked up and caught a glimpse of the infant child who had fallen asleep, and asked, "Who is he?" ”

Concubine Hui smiled: "He, he is the son of Wei Changzai, you should be called the eighth brother." Yinhe wondered, "But...... How could he be in Zhongcui Palace? ”

Concubine Hui said: "Naturally, it is Your Majesty's will." The rules in the palace also hurt this child. Yinhe bowed his head and thought for a long time. Concubine Hui entrusted the child to the grandmother on the side, took Yinyu's hand and said, "Don't provoke the prince again, promise Enie, okay?" ”

Yinhe broke free of her hand and said angrily: "Enie! It's clear that everything is his fault. Concubine Hui sank her face, shook her head and said, "You are still young, you don't understand the reason for this, why can't you stay out of it?" ”

Yinhe looked at her and asked: "Enie has taught me since I was a child, I should stop the wicked people on the road, and it is a man's doing, not to mention that he bullies the weak and bullies the innocent at will, why should he be like this if he is the prince?" ”

Concubine Hui shook her head helplessly and said: "This is different, he is the crown prince, the Eastern Dynasty, the future son of heaven, and your king!" Yinhe sneered, "He may not be able to be a stable ...... for a lifetime."

Concubine Hui hurriedly covered his mouth and said, "Hugh wants to talk nonsense!" ”

Yinhe calmed down, and inexplicably became a little angry: "Enie, I have never believed in the destiny of heaven. ”

Concubine Hui sighed and said, "Why do you want to fight him, why should we compare with him?" Yinhe said: "Enemo forgot that there is also an uncle. ”

Concubine Hui suddenly realized, why Yinhe has the confidence to go against the prince, it turns out that there is Mingzhu behind him to help him, in recent years, Mingzhu has indeed been able to fight against Suo Etu, even so, no one knows that the prince is the most relied on son of the dynasty, and against the prince is against the emperor.

"This is something that shakes the foundation of the country, how can you ......" Concubine Hui couldn't say anything, and sighed repeatedly. Yinhe grabbed Concubine Hui's hand and said, "Enie, I really don't understand, he, what kind of virtue can he do?" After saying a word, before he finished speaking, Yinhe raised his fist and hammered it to the edge of the bed.

"Should I be named after this star (2)? Since my uncle's status is now unmatched, why can't he help me rise to the top and glorify the Nalan family at the same time. Seeing that Concubine Hui was silent for a long time, Yinhe comforted, "I know that this is tantamount to shaking a tree, even if it can't be achieved now, even if it is ten or twenty years later, I will have to give it a try." ”

Concubine Hui hugged Yinhe and said softly: "Enie doesn't ask for anything, don't want anything, as long as you are stable." Eleven years ago, the days of Eneti's fear were really too much. What do you mean by that today? It is against the law of etiquette, and when others hear it, not only will you and me be killed, but the entire Nalan family will pay for it. How can you listen to your uncle's one-sided words and disregard your life? Promise Enie, no matter what he does when you see the prince in the future, remember that it has nothing to do with you. What you have to do is to let Your Majesty see that you do not covet the heart of the crown prince, and that you have your talents. ”
