012. People's hearts

Yin Zhen came out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, with a rare smile on his face, although the smile was shallow and weak, it made his cold and handsome face much more vivid. Since he was a child, he rarely showed his thoughts on his face, and he felt that it was better to protect himself by hiding his thoughts in this way. Except for being with the thirteenth brother, usually, his face was so serious that there was no expression of joy or anger, but at this time today, he seemed to just want to revel in his mind and didn't want to think about anything else.

Yin Zhen's steps were very big, energetic and angry, and seeing his palace maids and eunuchs all looking secretively probe, he suddenly understood his situation. I secretly blamed myself in my heart: This is in the palace, how can I be so carried away! With a grim expression, he put away the smile on his face, Yinzhen turned cold again, and then saw the thirteenth brother who came out of Yuqing Palace.

Yinxiang walked over from a distance and saw the fourth brother, and the rapidly changing expression on the fourth brother's face was seen by him, and he immediately understood where the fourth brother's joy came from.

"Fourth brother, can't your smile last a little longer? I haven't seen enough! Yinxiang has always felt that the fourth brother is too rational and calm, and now the two brothers are in a rare good mood, and they can't help but speak with three points of spirit.

"Have you seen the prince?" Yinzhen asked in a low voice.

"Well, I've seen it, it's a bit of a disappointment, fourth brother, don't mention him, I'm glad we went out for a drink today." Yinxiang grabbed Yinzhen's arm and dragged him towards the palace gate.

The place where two people drink is 'Hui Pengju'. Yinxiang can't remember how many times he has been here, and in the past few years, no matter how good or bad he is, he will always come here to spend it. He has a different feeling for 'Hui Pengju', for the first time in his life, he went out of the palace for the first time, and wanted to see what the palace wall looked like, but he didn't expect to save Ding Xuesong, who fainted on the snow at that time, and then in ' Hui Pengju's recognized Ding Xuesong as a master, and later he and the fourth brother returned to the palace, and was caught by Huang Ama, he insisted that it was his own idea, and the fourth brother had nothing to do with it, about he was too righteous at the time, Huang Ama was not angry but laughed, agreed that he came out of the palace to learn the flute with the master, and after that, Huang Ama deliberately cultivated him, and finally at the age of thirteen, he handed over the spy camp and the Eight Banners Guard to him to command.

More than ten years have passed, but every time I look back and think about it, Yinxiang always feels that his life began when he sneaked out of the palace with his fourth brother when he was three years old, and 'meeting friends' is a witness to the turning point in his life.

'Hui Pengju' from the shopkeeper Uncle Cai to the running hall, for the thirteenth elder brother, they all like it very much, not only because he is a friend of Young Master Rong Yu, but also because the thirteenth elder brother never looks down on anyone with his noble status, in their opinion, the personality of the thirteenth elder brother is really much more upright than the nobles in the capital. Therefore, the thirteenth elder brother just walked into the Huipeng residence with two feet, and ran to the hall with a voice of "Here you are!" Inside, please! This customary slogan to greet guests was followed by a sentence of "Yo, Thirteen Masters!" There you are! When Uncle Cai heard this, he also approached and greeted, "Thirteenth elder brother!" There you are! Yo, the Four Baylors are here too! Yinzhen nodded lightly and did not speak.

When Yinxiang heard this affectionate call, the unhappiness in his heart seemed to fade before, and Lang responded with a smile: "Uncle Cai, you are busy, don't worry about me, let them bring me delicious food!" Saying that, Yin Zhen showed a faint smile and followed the thirteenth brother up the stairs, and the two came to the private room on the second floor.

When he was drunk, Yinxiang told the fourth brother the reason why the prince called him to go.

Originally, when it came to disaster relief in Henan, due to the lack of local financial resources, only funds were allocated from the national treasury, but Kangxi meant to solve it with the help of people's power, which increased the difficulty of disaster relief. It is naturally unrealistic to ask the people to donate money, so they can only make ideas from businessmen. The richest businessman in the Qing Dynasty is Hu Zhongzheng, but all the brothers are thinking about now is how to make friends with the Hu family instead of using this matter to provoke the Hu family.

The brothers on the side don't dare to come out if they have no way, and the brother doesn't dare to come out if he has a way. When Kangxi saw his sons' indifferent appearance, he had to move his eyes to the prince, hoping that the prince could stand up and take on this matter, but the prince saw that things were not pleasing and bowed his head and pretended not to see it.

Kangxi was angry and disappointed with the prince, turned his head and asked everyone again, who would have thought that no one in the entire court would respond, and in the end, the fourth elder brother couldn't look past it and stood up to take on the matter. Kangxi knew that there was no one behind the fourth elder brother, so he provoked him to say that if this thing could not be done, he would cut off his Baylor title, and the thirteenth elder brother saw this, and stood up and took the matter with the fourth brother.

The fourth elder brother only met with Hu Qing once and settled the matter, Hu Qing was unexpectedly reasonable, and things went exceptionally smoothly. The brothers are secretly regretting that they didn't take the lead in the first place, but who would have expected Hu Qing to be such a good talker? When Yuyi Pavilion first met, no matter how he looked at Hu Qing, he was a master who didn't eat hard and soft.

Because the affairs of Henan were done very smoothly, before the people panicked, the food for disaster relief in the court had been distributed to them, and the people had hope in their lives, and they naturally had a grateful heart for the court, and a hidden danger disappeared invisibly. When the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother paid the decree, Kangxi had already praised the two of them greatly. Zhang Yanyu and Ma Qi in the upper study presented to Kangxi the excerpts they received from various prefectures and counties in Henan Province to ask for merit for the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother, Kangxi was overjoyed, and praised the fourth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother in front of the hundred officials, and made a great contribution to the two.

The matter involved Hu Qing, a sensitive person, and the rest of the people no longer had any objections, Brother Jiu earned the silver, and the ** Brother faction had nothing to say. But I didn't expect that this time it was the prince who had an opinion on the two elder brothers, and the reason was that the two younger brothers did not add him to this credit. After the next dynasty, the prince called the thirteenth elder brother to Yuqing Palace and complained.

"Later, he'll understand." Yin Zhen was not surprised that the prince would have such a reaction, all these years of brothers, he already knew the prince's personality, but what he thought was that one day the prince would understand the painstaking efforts of him and his thirteenth brother: Isn't this country going to be passed on to him one day, he and his thirteenth brother are so protective of the country, isn't it just to protect him!

"Fourth brother, he doesn't think that we have robbed him of his scenery, and I am content." Thirteen smiled coldly and raised his head to drink the wine at the bottom of his glass.

"What did Master Suo say?"

"What else can I say, he was so angry that he turned around and left."

"The prince didn't say anything when he said this errand that day, I didn't expect things to go so well, how dare I get him involved, if it doesn't work, the two of us will be punished, but what should the prince do, don't let people laugh at him for being incompetent!" After all, he is the future monarch, and he is the person who is personally trained by the emperor.

"Fourth brother, this errand has been completed, if it can't be done, I don't know how he will complain about us!" Thirteen was unspeakably annoyed, "If he had stood up at that time, I, Thirteen, would have done my errand even if I tried my best, but he lowered his head at that time to avoid the eyes of Huang Ama and Master Suo, and the people he saw were not only us?" Now that the errand is done, he blames us again! Now this errand is becoming more and more difficult to do, and it is not right to do it! ”

"Stop drinking!" Yin Zhen stretched out his hand and pressed the mouth of Thirteen's wine glass, and said in a low voice: "Thirteenth brother, we only do what we should do, and we don't want to fight with him for anything, one day he will understand." ”

"I hope so!" Yinxiang leaned back in the chair, quite discouraged.

"I really want to thank Hu Qing this time!" Yin Yu thought about it and said: "The court doesn't want to reward him, we have to find a way to thank him." ”

"Hmm. Qing'er didn't say anything. That day, Rong Yu said that he wanted me to teach him to ride a horse, and I agreed. Speaking of Rong Yu and Qing'er, Yinxiang's mood was better.

"Hmm. He grew up in the south and was pampered, so be careful. Yinzhen thought of Hu Qing's life experience again, "It's pitiful to think about Hu Zhongzheng, the Hu family only has this bit of blood left!" ”

"Rong Yu is also the bloodline of the Hu family. Fourth brother. ”

"After all, it's a layer apart. Or Hu Qing is closer. Be careful, don't let him slip up. ”

"Don't worry, fourth brother!"

***

West Garden. Hu Qing and the thirteenth elder brother rode side by side, from far to near, Rong Yu stepped forward to grab the reins of the horse, held the horse, and watched Qing'er get off the horse. "Tired or not?" He was a little worried.

"Hmm. Somewhat. Hu Qing turned over and dismounted, his red little face was fluttering, and his phoenix eyes became brighter and brighter. She adjusted her breath and replied, "It's a good feeling to be on horseback, to be one with the horse, to feel like you're flying." ”

"Have you flown enough today?" Rong Yu looked at Qing'er with a smile, then raised his head and smiled at the thirteenth elder brother: "Qing'er is not stupid, he is still afraid that you will say that he is stupid." ”

Thirteen Agolang smiled, "Qing'er, you are not stupid, you are not only not stupid, but also too smart." Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people like you who like to ride horses. We are full of people who win the world on horseback, but now everyone loves to sit in a sedan chair more and more. ”

Hu Qing pulled his clothes and looked up at the thirteenth elder brother, "If you look at my clothes, you will know why more and more people love to sit in a sedan chair." "Speaking of dusting, just now I only cared about galloping horses, but I didn't think about appearance. He was wearing a blue-gray robe, which was wrinkled and floating.

The thirteenth elder brother looked at his body, and sure enough, it was the same, he smiled and didn't speak, and lowered his head to clean up.

"After riding the horse for half a day, you two are tired too. Let's go back. Rong Yu looked around, the winter days were short, and the sky was dark when he spoke.

"Qing'er is not tired, let's go back."

"Okay!" Looking at the slowly setting sunset, he turned back and responded, "It's a pity that it's going to get dark so soon." With regret in his words, he felt that he had not ridden enough in a short time.

"Qing'er, you love horseback riding, we just need to come often in the future." The thirteenth elder brother looked at Qing'er and smiled slightly and said, what a child, I don't like it too much.

"Okay? Do you have nothing to do? Qing'er asked happily. He said in a low voice: "You have a lot of things, don't force it." ”

"Okay! As long as it's your business, you can do anything. Thirteen looked at Qing'er dotingly.

When he turned around, he was surprised to see Rong Yu's surprised face. "What's wrong?"

"Not much, not much." Rong Yu hurriedly waved his hand. sighed in his heart: Thirteenth elder brother, you are really not ordinarily good to Qing'er!

Seeing that Qing'er was about to get on the horse, Yinxiang walked over to stabilize the horse for him. "Qing'er, thank you for sending me the firecracker."

When he took the firearm from Rong Yu, Rong Yu didn't hide it from him and told him that it was sent by Qing'er. He is grateful to Qing'er in his heart, no matter how expensive things are, they are valuable, only people's hearts are priceless. Qing'er can treat him the same as his brother, so he rushes to this heart, and he is willing to do whatever Qing'er wants him to do.
