If Yinzhen knew the scene of being born in the south study, he would probably be shocked into a cold sweat. Reading the book// Kangxi recruited Guo Xiu into the south study to ask, obviously to investigate whether Yinzhen was secretly recruiting ministers from the DPRK and China. Kangxi's spies are full of the court, and he takes special "care" of his brother and important ministers of the court. According to the news reported by the secret agent last time, Kangxi was already a little alert to Yinzhen's return to Tong Guowei's mansion to stay, and Tong Guowei deliberately returned to protect Yinzhen this time, which made Kangxi tense his nerves. Fortunately, Yinzhen was still more cautious this time, and did not take the opportunity of Kangxi's kindness to win people's hearts for himself, and did not say anything to Guo Xiu, so Kangxi was quite satisfied with his performance.

Yinzhen came to the knot house somewhat depressed, and as soon as he walked in, several eunuchs behind him set up a curtain around the grass and reed, indicating that this was already a forbidden place, prohibiting others from entering, and of course, Yinzhen was also forbidden to go out. At the original entrance, a one-foot-square hole was dug, presumably to deliver food to Yinzhen or to take out the excreted pickled dirt.

The Qing Dynasty encirclement system is divided into several types: 1. Standing circles. After standing in the circle, draw a circle along the edge of the foot at its feet, and the circle cannot go out of the circle, but can only stand in the circle without moving. This is one of the harshest punishments imposed on the clan. 2. Sit in a circle. Forbidden to sit on a bench, draw a circle around the four corners of the bench, and the circle is not allowed to go out of the circle, but can only sit on the bench. 3. Drawing boundaries in a room where the room is a place of confinement is essentially the same as life imprisonment in prison. Fourth, confined in the Zongren Mansion, or in their own mansion, build a high wall, and plant tribulus terrestris on the wall. Demarcate a place in the house and set up a boundary. The range of activities is within the boundaries delineated. This method of captivity, in addition to deprivation of liberty, is the most mild of the captives. The first two kinds of bans are so severe that they are never actually enforced, even though they are written in the law. Therefore, the ban on Yinzhen is already a heavier one, Kangxi is in line with the idea of small punishment and big precepts, to let Yinzhen have a longer memory, and there must be no friends with ministers and gangs. Fortunately, Kangxi still feels sorry for his son, and the days of confinement are not too long. It's just that it is almost late autumn, but the weather is still very hot, and the curtain is wrapped around the outside of the knot, which really makes Yinzhen stuffy and unbearable.

Yinzhen is most afraid of heat, but he pays great attention to the subtleties, no matter before or after people, he is always well-dressed, so he refuses to take off his clothes no matter how hot he is. However, my heart is extremely irritable.

At this moment, I heard the eunuch outside Lu say in a loud voice: "In accordance with the emperor's instructions, let's reward the emperor's fourth son, Yinzhen Ice Basin, and talk about relieving the heat." Yin Zhen couldn't help but say, this is really timely rain, you can come whatever you want. Hurriedly knelt down and said, "The guilty son Xie Huang Ama grace." Hearing Yinzhen's voice of gratitude outside, he stuffed an ice basin from the one-foot-square opening, looking at the ice cubes bubbling with a trace of white gas inside, Yinzhen's mood suddenly relaxed.

In the next two days, every day the eunuchs would send Kangxi rewarded ice basins and food boxes, so that Yinzhen couldn't figure out whether he was being punished or rewarded, but he was just stuffed in the grass and reeds, which was too boring. Finally, when the three days were over, the curtain was removed, and I saw a young man standing in front of the grass and reeds with a smile, and it was actually the eighth elder brother Yinxi.

Yin Zhen was a little surprised, this eighth elder brother has never been close to him, he never came to see him, could it be that he came just to see jokes?

When Yinci saw Yinzhen coming out of the reed, he deeply hit a thousand and said, "The fourth brother is auspicious." Although he was a little puzzled, Yinzhen refused to lose his manners, and also arched his hand, and said, "Eighth brother, why do you have time to come to your fourth brother today?"

Yin Qi Yingying smiled: "Listening to the fourth brother, I am blaming the younger brother." The younger brother is here today to ask the fourth brother to apologize for your sins. Usually there is a fourth brother to take care of, and the younger brother has always kept it in mind. We haven't seen each other for a while. Today, the younger brother came to invite the fourth brother to have some dinner together on the order of Eniang. I wonder if the fourth brother can appreciate his face?"

Before Yin Zhen could answer, he heard a hearty laugh at the door, "The heavens will be entrusted to the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and benefit what they can't." Even if the fourth brother is successfully out of the cultivation today, how can I not come to the corresponding reason?"

Yinzhen was also happy, and said: "The third brother is also here, and he dropped his bookbag so far away, but he came to remind Yinzhen that he hasn't done his homework these days?"

I saw Yinzhi pacing in from the door with a fan, and said as he walked: "Eighth brother, you are not righteous, and you don't know how to notify you and me when you have a meal?"

Yinci hurriedly said: "It's best to have the third brother come together, Yinci is afraid that the third brother will have a lot of Confucianism, and when it comes to the dinner table, Yinci only has to show timidity." ”

Yinzhi smiled silently.

Yinzhen also smiled and said, "Thank you for the third brother and the eighth brother for coming to see me, this love Yinzhen remembers in my heart." ”

Yinzhi said: "It's not just me and the eighth, I just looked from a distance and it seems that the thirteenth brother is led by his grandmother, and he is also going here." ”

Yin Xi also smiled on the side: "It's not that the younger brother defends, it's not that the younger brother is too lazy, so he doesn't often walk around here, it's really that the fourth brother's stove here is too hot, I'm afraid that people will say that I am deliberately stammering with the emperor's mother and the fourth brother, and then add some trouble to the fourth brother." No, seeing that the fourth brother is coming out today, he specially came over to say goodbye to the fourth brother. Originally, the ninth and tenth brothers also wanted to come over, but they didn't recite the book today, and they were punished by Huang Ama to copy the Analects and couldn't get out. ”

"Haha" Yinzhen laughed for a while, "Your fourth brother is a water dog now, not forbidden, even the Dongzhu on his head has been punished, thanks to the third brother and eighth brother who did not give up and came to see me, I am grateful." In fact, even in the past, they were all their own brothers, how could they have so many scruples, and my third brother and eight brothers here will have to come often in the future. The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, but they had their own plans in their hearts.

At this time, I heard a sound of "the third brother is auspicious, the fourth brother is auspicious, the starling brother is auspicious", and a crisp voice came from behind Yinzhi. As soon as Yinzhi turned sideways, Yinzhen saw a pink child, wearing a fragrant poplin blessing gown, an azure Baturu vest, a small rattan silk cool hat, and picking tassels, it was the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang. This small detail of going to Ying made Yinzhen very moved, and this outfit showed that the thirteenth elder brother was still mourning for Queen Tong.

Yinxiang saluted several brothers one by one, Yinzhen hurriedly took his little hand and said, "Thirteenth brother, why are you here too?"
