After hearing Yinxiang's inquiry, Yinzhen raised the pocket watch and looked at it, and then turned his gaze to Liu Hua: "Can you understand the mystery here?" ”

Hearing Yinzhen's words, Liu Hua knew that the other party was testing him, so he smiled slightly: "The pocket watch is a thing used for timekeeping, and there are three hands in it, which are the hour hand, the minute hand, and the second hand.

Every time the second hand rotates, the minute hand advances one square, and the minute hand rotates one revolution, and the hour hand advances one square, in the order of front and back, the minutes are exactly the same, the prince's meaning, I am afraid that it is a hint that the prince will follow the rules and act cautiously in the future, right? ”

"Huh? This king has only seen this thing in the palace a few times before, but he knows how to use it and does not know its principle, how do you know its theoretical structure? How do you know that the three hands on it are the hour, minute, and second hands? Yin Zhen asked casually.

Liu Hua was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he remembered that clocks and watches could be seen everywhere in later generations, but in this era, they were still things that had never been seen before, except for this thing in the palace, the people outside had never seen this kind of thing.

Thinking of this, Liu Hua pretended to be flat and said: "Lord Qiqi, I like to read all kinds of books since I was a child, and I once saw information about clocks and watches in a book about the countries of the Western Regions, so I know its principle. ”

"Oh, I see." After listening to Liu Hua's explanation, Yinzhen nodded: "I didn't expect you to have such knowledge in your chest at a young age, it's really not simple, but it's better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles, in the future, you have to go out for a walk more, and use the talent you learned in your chest to benefit the people." ”

"Oh, my fourth brother, why are you talking about benefiting the people again? Tell me, what is the purpose of the prince giving you this pocket watch? What is he trying to say? Yinxiang asked anxiously.

After hearing this, Yin Zhen fiddled with the pocket watch in his hand, and when he saw the walking hands on it, a trace of indifference flashed on his face: "Hmph...... He was suggesting to me that I should behave in a proper manner and not be delusional.

Just like the second hand on this pocket watch, it is honestly rotating forward, not fast or slow, if the hands on the pocket watch are disobedient and go around, then this watch is useless, he is taking the opportunity to beat me. ”

"Hmph...... The second child also learned to use things as metaphors, which is really a long skill. After a mockery, Yinxiang said with a contemptuous face: "Fourth brother, if you want me to say, he is bullying you to talk, Huang Ama has so many children, he Yinren dares to come with you like this, why doesn't he dare to give this watch to the third, eighth, ninth, tenth, and fourteenth?" If he dares to give it to me, I'll throw it in front of him. ”

"Old Thirteen, Hugh is talking nonsense, talking about the prince behind his back, do you want to enter the Zongren Mansion?" After reprimanding Yinxiang a few words, Yinzhen threw the pocket watch in his hand to Liu Hua: "Since you know this thing, then the king will give you this pocket watch."

You take it and go to the Nine Gate Admiral Long Keduo, and say that this king asked you to go, and let him find a hidden place to imprison Qi Ji, hehe...... Pucci, who is under Long Kedo, is the disciple of the old eight, and he puts people in Long Kedo, and no matter how hidden the place is, he can't hide the old eight.

I heard that there are many officers and soldiers in the capital looking for people today? This should be the prince's handiwork, right? The prince is so aggressive for this Qi trace, maybe this person has mastered the prince's weakness?

Hehe...... Since the prince was abolished, the eighth and the fourteenth have not been idle, although the prince was abolished afterwards and reinstated, but the eighth they have not put the prince in their eyes, there is the support of the emperor's relatives and relatives, and the assistance of the ministers of the ministry, plus the support of the blessed emperor's uncle, the power of the eighth is already on par with the prince, since this is the case, then let the eighth and the prince break their wrists. ”

Speaking of this, Yin Zhen looked at Liu Hua: "You go to Long Keduo first, deal with Qi Ji's errand, and after that, you can play in the capital for two days, and this king will not invite you to dinner, and I will let Liang Gong pick up the wind and wash the dust for you for this king." ”

After Yinzhen's words fell, Liu Hua did not hesitate, picked up the pocket watch and walked out, looking at Liu Hua's departing back, Yinxiang chuckled and said, "Fourth brother, how is it?" What about this subordinate of my network?

At the beginning of Shilin Villa, Huang Ama gave him to me, this kid can not only be literate and martial arts but also have a clear mind, that literary competition, Huang Ama was very satisfied with his performance.

However, it was Nian Qianyao who recommended him to the imperial court, and he has been working under Huang Baishan during this time, so he is very close to you, right? I'll let him go to your house on an errand when I go back? ”

Hearing Yinxiang's words, Yinzhen couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hahaha...... Old Thirteen, Old Thirteen, you have also learned to come to this set, originally I really wanted to send Liu Hua to the mansion to partner with Li Wei and them, but seeing that you are so reluctant, I will not take advantage of others.

You have good eyesight, after this son saw me, he was never humble or arrogant, and his conversation and insight were also extraordinary, if he trained well, he would be a good assistant in the future, and when there was a vacancy in the place when he turned back, he would be given a chance to go out, which would not only exercise him, but also weigh his ability. ”

The capital at night seems very quiet, but ordinary residents don't know that under this calm night, there are already storms in the capital, Liu Hua took the pocket watch rewarded by Yinzhen to find Long Keduo, and conveyed Yinzhen's words as they were, and then handed over Qi Ji to him.

Just after Long Keduo personally imprisoned Qi Ji in the cell of the Admiral's Yamen, not long after leaving, a prisoner who looked about the same as Qi Ji, looked exactly the same, and had almost the same injuries on his body, was stuffed into the cell, and then the other party took Qi Ji away.

At the same time, the prince also learned the news that Qi Ji was imprisoned in the Admiral's Yamen, but when the prince placed the people in the Admiral's Yamen, when they arrived at the cell, they found that Qi Ji inside had been dropped, and after disposing of several jailers in charge of guarding, the prince's people had to go back to their lives truthfully.

The next morning, Emperor Kangxi wore a dragon robe, ascended to the early dynasty in the Jinluan Palace, and waited for the important ministers below to bow three times and bow nine times to finish the big salute, Kangxi replied lightly: "Flat", and then stopped talking.

Kangxi looked at the civil and military officials standing at the bottom with a majestic face, there was no joy or sorrow on his face, and there was no expression, so that people couldn't see through what he was thinking? At this time, a chief eunuch beside him shouted in a sharp voice: "Long live the early dynasty, if you have something to do, you will start the class and retreat from the court." ”

As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, in the camp of the ministers below, there was a person wearing a three-grade court uniform, holding the fold with both hands, standing out of the class, he first bowed down to Kangxi, and then shouted loudly in his mouth: "Weichen Xu Yuanmeng has a book to play, long live Qiyu, Weichen impeached Qi Shiwu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, for collecting money, accepting bribes, and perverting the law for bribes. ”
