Chapter 19: The Real Old Fox
Seeing that Kabula was about to enter the hall, Yinren hurriedly got up from his seat and greeted him. In any case, this is his maternal grandfather, and with such a blood relationship, he should be closer to the people next to him.
"My grandfather suddenly visited, and Yinren was disappointed." When he arrived at the door, Yinren invited Kabula into the main hall with a little enthusiasm. It's not that Yinren is unwilling to be closer, but it's really that such a big change is suddenly made for fear that this old man will be suspicious, which will backfire.
Kabula, who was still worried, looked at Yinren's performance today, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, you must know that this prince is his own ancestor. has always been quite cold, why did he come out of the main hall to welcome himself today.
Although he was puzzled, Kabula did not express the doubts in his heart after all, after all, the prince can be kind to him, and whatever he says is a good thing for the Hesheri family and for himself.
Yinren and Kabula simply exchanged words and cut to the chase. "I see that my grandfather has a sad face, but what trouble is there going on?"
Kabula was shocked by Yinren's change in attitude towards himself just now, and when he heard Yinren's words, he remembered that he had something very important to do when he came to Yuqing Palace today. Sure enough, when people get old, they tend to forget things.
Kabula's face, which had been a little better-looking, suddenly became a little sad again. "Today's matter, His Royal Highness the Prince Wanwang will be cautious!"
"In the past, the emperor went on an expedition to Geerdan, but unfortunately he was trapped in the northern camp of Mobei. Chen once overheard my third brother and Ge Li discussing something in the study, but I couldn't hear it clearly, and I only heard about the lack of food and grass sporadically. ”
"At first, the minister didn't take this matter to heart, but later this Ge Li was ordered by my third brother to escort the grain and grass to the Mobei camp, and this time Ge Li never came back. At this time, the minister became a little suspicious. ”
"It's just that later, after the emperor came back from the Mobei camp, I don't know if it was the illusion of the ministers, and the emperor seemed to be a little more distant from the Hesheri family than before."
"The minister's heart has no bottom, and I can't speak at all in the court from a three-grade idle job, and the doubts in my heart are getting bigger and bigger."
"I know that today, my third brother's behavior is particularly abnormal, it is said that His Royal Highness has just received the emperor's reward, he should be happy, but I don't know why he is particularly worried today, and let people secretly clean up his private treasury, if it weren't for the minister's previous people's attention, I'm afraid that the minister would still be kept in the dark."
Yinren listened to Kabula's words and knew that he had already guessed eight or nine, but this kind of thing could not be put on the surface with swagger after all.
Thinking about Yinren, he couldn't help but sigh a little, everyone said that Sony's three sons Suo Etu's resourcefulness and ability should be the first, and the eldest son Kabula was more than one step behind his younger brother in addition to his noble status.
Now it seems that this is not necessarily the case, Suo Etu thinks he is smart, and thinks that no one knows about his intention to rebel, and he acts a little unscrupulously. But I'm afraid it's not that he treats everyone as a fool, but that everyone treats him as a fool.
Ge Li actually died, and the person who killed him must have known Suo Etu's plan, but he was just suppressed by Kangxi. In this way, I am afraid that some of these many princes already know.
In fact, the Hesheri family is really scheming, I'm afraid it's still Kabula, and it's not obvious. But what he should know and what he shouldn't know are clear.
In the early years, Kabula was also quite successful in the court, otherwise how could Xiaozhuang choose his Kabula's daughter to be Kangxi's queen? You must know that at that time, the minister of Gu Ming, Sonny, had already retired from the court, and his body was only poor, so he was afraid that he would not have long to live.
In this case, Xiaozhuang also chose Kabula's daughter to be Kangxi's queen, I am afraid that he not only wanted to balance the strength of the four ministers, but also wanted to win over Kabula, who was quite powerful in the court at that time.
It's just that later Suo Etu was very important to Kangxi, and it can be said that he has sprung up. Kabula retreated bravely at this time, after all, there was already a queen in the Hesheri family, if there were a few more first-class officials staying in the court, there would be no need for Xiaozhuang and Kangxi to be afraid of them. I'm afraid that several other big families with surnames will also join forces to deal with the Hesheri family.
Such a Kabula can be said to be the true wise man of the Hesheri family, who pursues power but will not be blinded by power.
Of course, these are all inferences from Yinren based on his own memories and Kabula's current performance, whether it is really as he thinks in his heart, I am afraid that it will take time to test.
Now that this Kabula has discovered Soltu's intentions, he has come to find himself at this time, I am afraid that he already has a plan in his heart to give up Soltu to protect the Hesheri family.
I just don't know what he thinks in his heart.
Yinren was silent before looking at Kabula. "The meaning of the grandfather is actually known by Yinren for a long time!" As soon as he heard Yinren's words, Kabula couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, "Sure enough." ”
"Since my grandfather has found Yinren today, he already has a plan in his heart?" Yinren gently turned the jasper wrench on his thumb and looked at Kabula and said.
Kabula was stunned, it seems that the prince is not as foolish as he imagined. Okay, just pick it out and put it on the table and say. Thinking about it, Kabula glanced at Yinren, and said in a slightly low tone: "Died violently!" ”
Yinren was shocked when he heard this, he only thought that this Kabula was a smart old fox before, but he didn't expect it to be a ruthless old fox! You must know that Suo Etu is his own brother, and now in order to save the Hesheri family or himself, this idea of killing him directly has already been made.
Although he was shocked in his heart, Yinren didn't show it on his face, and looked at Kabula calmly, "Give me a reason." ”
Kabula saw that Yinren didn't react or panic, and was still unusually calm. "Since you already know about this matter, Your Royal Highness the Prince, then I think the emperor already knows. The emperor may take Suo Etu for the sake of his reputation and not on the charge of rebellion. ”
"However, the emperor will inevitably use another crime that is enough to kill Suo Etu and make him unable to turn over, and such a crime, needless to say, His Royal Highness knows that it will have a great impact on the Hesheri family and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"But as long as Suo Etu dies violently, he can die a dignified death, and he doesn't have to bear the name of a criminal minister, and the Hesheri family will lose a first-class member in the sky, but it won't hurt his vitality, and His Royal Highness the Prince, you can also save a good reputation, and you don't have to bear the responsibility of His Majesty."
At this time, Yinren had to admit that compared with these old foxes who had been running officialdom for decades, he was still too tender. The smooth passage of this period of time has wiped out the sense of crisis in my heart.
This battlefield of Kowloon is really not simpler than I imagined!
