Cangxi did this, which can be called clever.

After Zhou Yi understood what Cangxi meant, he asked, "When does Brother Wang plan to see the prince?" ”

Cangxi took a sip of tea and lightly spit out two words: "Don't worry." ”

When Zhou Xin returned to Beijing, the first person who couldn't sit still should be Zhou Ze. As long as Cang'er spreads the news, Zhou Ze will definitely seize the opportunity to take the initiative to show goodwill to Cangxi. For now, all they have to do is sit and wait.

After a moment of silence in the room, Cangxi couldn't help but ask, "How is Porcelain?" ”

Zhou Yi knew that this person was a forgetful person, and he couldn't do without Fu Ci in a few words!

"Your sweetheart has returned to the Fu Mansion, and I think that Fu Guogong will not be too embarrassed for the future princess. After all, the daughters of the Fu family are all his bets. Zhou Yi replied.

At the mention of Fu Mansion, Cang Xi's face was cold. Fu Qian's poisoning of Fu Ci, Cangxi remembered it clearly in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that this person was still useful to him, I really wanted to give him a stab.

"It seems that this king still needs to visit Fu Guogong." Cangxi said.

After that, Cangxi took out a cloak from the cabinet, pressed it towards his body, and said, "If you stay in King Xi's mansion these days, Mrs. Shen's side will send someone to inform you." After speaking, without waiting for Zhou Yi to respond, Cangxi came out of the Star Moon Pavilion.

With a cup of tea, Cangxi's sedan chair came to the door of the Guogong Mansion. If it weren't for the bad disobedience to the honor guard that the prince of Chengzhou should have when he traveled, Cangxi really wanted to go over the wall and learn the bridge section of the man crossing the wall and meeting his sweetheart in the script.

Cangxi was taken by the housekeeper to the lobby of the Guogong Mansion. At that time, Fu Qian was already waiting at the door. For some reason, Cangxi always had an indescribable boredom when she saw Fu Qian.

Either because this person didn't have much contribution to the court and still held a high position, or because this person's attitude towards Fu Ci was too indifferent and annoyed him. In short, in his opinion, Fu Qian is a faint official with a beast's heart. If you say that the biggest credit of this person is that for him, I am afraid that it is only that Fu Porcelain has been raised well over the years, and he has not been treated too badly.

"General Xi is here, why don't you let people report in advance, and the old minister should be prepared." Fu Qian saluted and said.

Cangxi glanced at Fu Qian and asked, "What does my father-in-law want to prepare?" ”

Fu Qian saw that he was not good, and a little smile accumulated on his face, and said, "Naturally, it is wine and food." The marriage between the prince and Ah Ci is decided, and the entire Guogong Mansion is stained! ”

Hearing this, Cangxi glanced at Fu Qian contemptuously: "Oh? Is it? ”

Fu Qian nodded hurriedly, and then held Cangxi vigorously. Which one of Fu Qian's tricks as an official wouldn't? After getting used to it, this kind of carving insect skill is not worth mentioning in Cangxi's eyes at all.

Seeing that Cangxi didn't speak, Fu Qian hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, please take a seat, Lord Wang, please take a seat!" ”

Cangxi sat down in the right seat, and Fu Qian hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea. What the housekeeper brought up was the snow-roofed cold green of Fanbang's palace. Such a good tea is rare in the Four Princes' Mansions, and now it is tasted in the Guogong Mansion, which shows that Fu Qian has deducted a lot.

"If this king remembers correctly, this tea is a snow-topped cold green that only has a side plug, and the prince of the country is really appreciated by the saints, and this king has not tasted such mellow tea in the palace of the four princes." Cangxi said.

Hearing Cangxi say this, Fu Qian was a little embarrassed. Isn't this a clear statement that he deducted the tribute from Fanbang?

Despite this, Fu Qian's face was still impassive, and he said: "The prince said that he laughed, the old minister just buried this tea under the ground. Therefore, it is very mellow to drink. ”

Fu Qian laughed dryly, and Cangxi also laughed in agreement. Fu Qian took a sip of tea and asked, "Does the prince know that the third prince has returned to Beijing?" ”

Cangxi nodded, "Yes." ”

Hearing this, Fu Qian asked, "Are the rumors from the outside world true?" ”

Cang Xi smiled, "Which rumor is my father-in-law referring to?" ”

Fu Qian lowered his voice a few points and said, "The outside world has said that you have placed His Royal Highness under house arrest and plan to follow the crown prince. ”

Although Cang Xi had been prepared from the moment Fu Qian spoke, he knew that he was going to mention this matter. But when it really came out of Fu Qian's mouth, Cangxi couldn't help but sigh at the number of Fu Qian's eyeliners.

It was less than an hour before he ordered Cang'er to spread the news to the outside world, and before Cang'er returned to the Xiwang Mansion, Guogong Fu Qian already knew about this matter, and dared to tell him in the open, presumably after many confirmations.

Seeing it like this, this Guogong has a wide range of connections and many eyeliner!

"Not bad", Cangxi took a sip of tea, and saw that Fu Qian had been staring at him, so he explained: "Among the princes, the Shen family's sons and the fourth child are suspected of rebellion, and detaining the fourth child is also helping the prince get rid of political enemies. ”

Fu Qian never imagined that he could say these words from Cangxi's mouth. He knew that the relationship between Cangxi and Zhou Yi was extraordinary, and if he could do this, it seemed that the famous Prince Xi could be used by the prince.

"The prince is wise, the prince is wise!" Fu Qian said again and again.

Cang Xi deliberately said this to Fu Qian.

Fu Qian's careful thoughts, how could he not know? It's like marrying a daughter, since he chose the prince as a backer, if he can't be used by Zhou Ze, this will always be a knot in Fu Qian's heart. Fu Guogong's heart is ruthless, he hasn't seen it before, Fu Ci is out of the tiger's mouth and like a wolf's den, this matter is still a little clear to Fu Qian.

"I am the son-in-law of the prince and the prince, and we should be of the same heart."

Cangxi's words are euphemistic, but they are also meaningful. He didn't believe it, and the dignified Fu Guogong couldn't hear what he meant.

"The prince is in love", Fu Qian said politely.

As he spoke, the butler came in from the door, bowed respectfully, and said, "Master, dinner has been prepared." ”

Fu Qian waved his hand and motioned for the housekeeper to step back.

"Is it okay for the prince to stay in the Fu Mansion for a light meal?" Fu Qian said with a smile on his face.

Cangxi arched his hand and said: "Don't bother your father-in-law, there are still things to deal with in the son-in-law's mansion, so let's write down this meal for the time being." ”

Fu Qian said politely: "The prince said that he was laughing, why talk about labor." A meal can't delay much effort from the prince, and he won't eat after eating, let alone having Ah Ci as a companion. ”

As soon as he heard Fu Qian mention Fu Ci, Cangxi couldn't move a little bit. Zhou Xin came back suddenly, and he had to go back to his house as soon as possible to repair a letter to his subordinates and mobilize the army as soon as possible. But when she thought of Fu Ci, Cangxi was a little reluctant. After thinking about it, Cangxi finally stayed in the Guogong Mansion.

The name of the United States is to discuss with Guogong what to do next. In fact, it is for the sake of beauty. If he doesn't give Fu Qian face, it means that Fu Ci's position in his heart is not so important, in this case, if Fu Qian really can't hold back and attack Fu Ci, won't he become an executioner?

Staying this time, he just wanted Fu Qian to know that the status of his Cangxi woman in his heart was more important than state affairs and more than the country!

Although it was Fu Qian's idea to leave Cangxi, the meal made him tremble.

Cangxi couldn't move Fu Ci to pick vegetables, feed vegetables, and wipe the corners of his mouth. After these actions one by one, Fu Qian was afraid that the matter of not waiting to see Fu Ci would be shaken out, which would provoke this prince of Xi. Fortunately, his daughter is born only by promise, and she is not a person who dares to sue and tear her face with him, so she is somewhat relieved.

After dinner, Fu Qian gave Cangxi and Fu Ci space to spend time alone. After all, this court belonged to the Zhou family, but it was the Cang family who led the army to defeat it. This Xi Wangye, he really didn't dare to offend.

If it weren't for the prince and princess of Cangjing who left this bloodline, the four major families in the court would definitely have his Cang family.

Cangxi stayed in the Guogong Mansion until dark, and muttered a few words in Fu Ci's ear before reluctantly leaving.

It's strange to say that Miss Fu San, who was step-by-step and ruthless in the past, was as docile as a domestic kitten in front of Cangxi.

Fu Ci returned to the north courtyard with a red face, Gui Yu saw that his master had never blushed like this before, so he teased: "Miss is not ashamed, she will go to meet her lover before she gets married." ”

Fu Ci seemed to be poked in the heart by her, and said angrily: "Do your job, cultivate a lot of mouth." ”

When Gui Yu heard his master say this, he quickly shut up, and honestly continued to embroider the mandarin duck purse in his hand.

Fu Ci thought of Cangxi's words just now, and blushed again. Seeing Gui Yu staring at himself and snickering, Fu Ci picked up the embroidery pattern of the red wedding dress and then embroidered it upward.

When Cangxi returned to the palace, Zhou Yi was alone on the roof admiring the moon. Cang Xi jumped on the roof of the house, took off the white jade wine bottle from his waist, took a sip, and said, "Tomorrow morning, the prince will definitely invite you and me to the East Palace for a small success." How to make the person in your family believe that you are under house arrest by me in the Xiwang Mansion depends on your ability. ”

Zhou Yi naturally knew that the one Cangxi was referring to was Shen Zihe.

Shen Zihe is Shen Guifei's niece. If the two didn't collude at all, Cangxi didn't believe it.

"The Shen girl treats me very well, I don't think she will tell Shen Guifei," Zhou Yi said.

Cangxi frowned. This second lady of the Shen family conquered Zhou Yi so quickly?

"She is a member of the Shen family, and it is good to keep an eye on it." Cangxi admonished.

Zhou Yi nodded and didn't say anything more. At this moment, he didn't know if he liked Shen Zihe more or Fu Xuanyue.

Thinking of Shen Zihe's voice and smile, Zhou Yi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. In the blink of an eye, Fu Yuyue's shadow floated in his mind, and the curvature of the corners of Zhou Yi's mouth suddenly flattened a little. He couldn't fully trust Shen Zihe, but the current Fu Yuyue also made him feel very unfamiliar.

Zhou Yi didn't want to listen to Cangxi's evaluation of Shen Zihe anymore, so he changed the topic and said, "How can we convince the prince that we are really helping him?" ”

Cangxi handed the wine jug to Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi poured two sips, and then stared at Cangxi and waited for him to speak.

"What does the prince need most?" Cangxi asked.

Zhou Yi thought about it and shook his head. At present, Zhou has the protection of Gaozong, the help of the queen, and many courtiers above the court for his use. What more could he ask for in this way, who wants the wind and the rain?

Cangxi didn't answer, and looked at Zhou Yi with a smile.

Zhou Yi pondered for a long time and asked, "The throne?" ”

Cangxi shook his head, "The crown prince doesn't look like a person who can ruthlessly kill his father and kill the monarch to succeed to the throne, and he doesn't need this throne much at the moment." ”

Zhou Yi looked puzzled, and Cangxi only smiled and didn't say anything. After a long time, Zhou Yi suddenly realized two words: "military power." ”

Cangxi took a sip of wine and patted Zhou Yi's shoulder: "It's quite enlightened." ”

Hearing Cangxi's words, Zhou Yi grinned, but then sighed again.

Gaozong stepped on the corpse of a soldier to ascend to the throne, and he valued military power as much as life. If you want Gaozong to give Zhou Ze the military power, the possibility is really slim.

Cangxi broke through Zhou Yi's mind and said: "It is impossible for my father to cut out a new military power to the prince, but Zhou Xin has 10,000 soldiers in his hands, and my father is also afraid that the third will be the only one." ”

On this morning, at the request of the prince Fu Qian, Gaozong finalized the marriage between Cangxi and Fu Ci. The wedding date was nearly a month earlier.

On the ninth day of February, it is suitable for marriage and marriage.

After announcing this happy event, Gojong announced his retirement from the dynasty. Dudu left Cangxi and Cheng Yue in the imperial study. Leaving Cangxi is not a big deal, but Cheng Yue, who is a martial artist, is also among them, and Zhou Yan and Zhou Xin have to be suspicious.

In the imperial study, Gaozong asked about the situation of the Cangxi Huns. Over the years, he didn't know that his third son was bullying ethnic minorities at the border, but after all, nothing happened, and Gaozong turned a blind eye.

However, this year is different. Not long ago, Cangxi pacified the war provoked by the Xiongnu, and Cheng Yue also added fuel to the vinegar to reveal the situation of their grain and grass being burned to Gaozong. Rao is Gaozong trusts his son again, and I am afraid that his heart will also be suspicious.

"What the third child has done at the border over the years, it's not that I don't know. You don't have to worry about brotherhood to hide it for him. Gaozong said to Cangxi.

Cangxi waved his hand and said, "Erchen did fight with the third brother's people at the border pass. After Cangxi finished speaking, he looked at Gaozong and frowned, and then added another fire, "Erchen was burned with grain and grass on the road. Erchen was incompetent and failed to find out the real culprit. ”

Gaozong snorted, "There are many soldiers in the army, if the third child sincerely burns your grain and grass, how can he let you catch it?" ”

Cangxi knew that Gaozong was angry, so he didn't talk again. After a while, Cheng Yue reminded the situation: "Holy Mingjian, the Third Highness has 10,000 soldiers in his hands. Even if the prince finds out who set the fire, he will be able to deny the instigator behind the scenes. ”

Cheng Yue said this very well, and he didn't want to be a brave and unscrupulous reckless man at all. These words were determined to be Zhou Xin's opponent, and secondly, they reminded Gaozong Zhou Xin that the military power in his hands was too heavy.

"The third child, do you think I'm old? Not top? Gaozong said, throwing the teacup in his hand to the ground.

Hu Yihui heard the movement outside the door, but he didn't dare to step forward. A while ago, Gaozong was already very annoyed that Shen Guifei chose the daughter of a big family as a concubine for his son, but these three highnesses also pretended to be smart and returned to Beijing this morning, which made Gaozong unhappy. It seems that Gaozong is going to take good care of his sons' eyes staring at the storage position.

"How do you think the military power in the hands of the third child should be placed?" Gaozong looked at Cangxi and asked.

Cangxi paused and said, "Erchen doesn't dare to discuss it. ”

Seeing Cangxi so humble, Gaozong said, "I will allow you to discuss." ”

Such a grace, Cangxi is the first. Gojong did not like his sons to hold the military power tightly in his own hands, and he did not want to hand over the military power to the generals. Perhaps, in Gaozong's heart, what is held in his hand is the most down-to-earth.

Cangxi pretended to ponder for a moment, and said: "Erchen believes that the military power is divided into three, so that the prince, the third highness, and the fourth highness each have military power in their hands to balance each other. ”

Gaozong nodded, he had this idea early on. Zhou Xin's power is too large, and there will be a battle for storage positions above the court.

"Why don't you mention the Great Prince?" Gojong asked.

Cangxi waved his hand and replied: "Big brother has the talent to win thousands of miles away, but he can't train soldiers and horses. ”

Gojong nodded again. Cangxi's words are good, Zhou Yan is indeed not suitable for leading troops, not to mention the thoughts of the Shen family, how can Gaozong not know? The military power in Zhou Yan's hands is equivalent to Zhou Xin's two military powers.

After thinking for a moment, Gaozong shouted Hu Yihui outside the door. Hu Yihui heard Gaozong's voice and hurriedly pushed the door in.

"Pass the decree, the third prince Zhou Xin has made meritorious service in the battle, and he will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold." Gaozong paused and said, "The soldiers who fought with the third child will be allocated to the prince and the fourth man with three thousand troops." Let them compare the three brothers, who will be more able to drill the army. ”

Gaozong's words must not offend anyone. Mei said that his name let several of his sons practice Bibi, but in fact, Zhou Xin's power was reduced a lot.

Zhou Xin dared to be angry when he received this holy decree, he didn't know that training the army was an excuse, but the person who gave this order was the lord of a country and his father, this kind of dumb eating Coptis chinensis was really uncomfortable.

After receiving this news, Zhou Xin and Zhou Yan were unhappy. Gojong nominally let his son drill the army to compete, but he did not allow himself to participate. Such ulterior motives, even if others don't say it, Zhou Yan knows in his heart - in the hard station of the battle for the storage position, Gaozong has already let himself be out early.

Of course, some people are happy and some are worried.

Zhou Ze was very happy when he received this holy decree, and it was rumored that Cangxi had become his own force in the court, so Zhou Ze was even happier in his heart. Regardless of whether the words from the court are true or not, he firmly believes that there is no wind and no waves, since there is this statement, it proves that Cangxi has a heart of surrender.
