In August, the investigation of corruption was already discovered.

It's just that a lot of side tapes were found later, and the conditions all pointed to Prince Yinren.

These days, they have been hesitant to report it.

If so, how?

The four of them sat in Prince Heng's mansion, looking at each other and silent.

Yin Zhen spoke first: "This matter has been delayed for a long time, and if it drags on any longer, the imperial father will be suspicious." ”

Yin Zhen pondered: "This case is definitely going to be reported." ”

Yin Qi nodded and said, "We all know it." ”

He was silent for a while, and then said: "Fourth brother, these days, I am wondering, is it possible, the imperial father has long known that this matter is related to the crown prince. ”

Yinqi swallowed his saliva: "That's why the imperial father sent all four of us out to investigate, for fear that there would be people inside who were looking for personal gain, or they didn't dare to investigate." ”

Among the elder brothers, they currently have the highest status. In order to investigate a corruption case, they were all sent out, and no one could not be allowed to think so.

When everyone heard this, they shivered and broke out in a cold sweat.

With just this hand, everyone went to the heart of the battle for the throne.

They asked themselves that they didn't have that kind of heart, and they were fighting for the throne under the nose of the emperor who was watching the fire, which was for fear that they would not fall into a trap.

Yinzhi only felt that his heart was pounding, his voice was a little sharp, and he got up and said, "No matter what you think, I will report this matter truthfully." ”

He saluted: "I'm not feeling well, so I won't accompany me and take my leave." ”

The remaining three were sedentary.

Yin Zhen sighed and said, "Report it truthfully, it's not something we can stop." ”

Yinqi and Yinyou nodded one after another.

Everyone settled the matter, wrote a song and sent it to the patrol team.

Kangxi didn't reply for a long time.

Everyone felt that maybe this matter would be revealed. But on the other hand, I was afraid that after Kangxi came back from Saiwai, he would have a big one.

The people were worried and sorrowful.

The courtiers inquired, but they were also perfunctory by a few people.

On September 30, on the day Kangxi returned to Beijing from his inspection of Saiwai, he announced to the princes: "Since the prince was restored, his madness has increased, his violence has transgressed, and his confusion has become even worse. I rule the world peacefully, and I can't pay this person! I have reported to the Queen Mother, and now I will detain Yinren and guard it. ”

Yinren was grounded and imprisoned.

When the Queen Mother received the report, although she had the heart to completely hand it over to Kangxi to make her own decisions, she remembered that the Queen Mother was worried about her life, so she asked Kangxi to come to the palace for a visit.

The Queen Mother pondered: "I'm old, and I only want my children and grandchildren to be well, but I don't know what mistakes the prince has made, so that you want to abolish him again." ”

Kangxi said: "First, after he was reinstated, he colluded with his ministers, and his henchmen became a disaster; Second, he has a heart of disobedience, and he privately discusses with others how to seek the throne. ”

"Tell the truth." The Queen Mother asked.

Kangxi: "What I said in court is all heartfelt words. The world I govern must not be handed over to him, he will only let the Qing Dynasty go to another Ming Dynasty. ”

The Ming Dynasty with many friends, prosperous talks, traitorous eunuchs in power, and weak slaves.

The Queen Mother looked at him: "I don't know about the previous dynasty, I just want to ask you, you abolish the prince and set up another prince." Is it out of selfish feelings, or is it righteousness? ”

"Both." Kangxi is no longer the young monarch he was back then, young and vigorous, and unwilling to admit his feelings.

He is becoming more and more mature, he knows exactly what he wants, and he knows exactly what he is doing.

Kangxi said seriously: "Yu private feelings, Yu Dayi, he is the most suitable one, why don't I choose him?" ”

"The ...... of the year"

Kangxi looked at the Queen Mother firmly and laughed: "Huang Eniang, don't you know that your son has always disbelieved in these ghosts and gods." ”

He laughed: "Even if there is any retribution, it just falls on me, what does it have to do with them." ”

He believed in ghosts and gods, but he didn't.

As soon as he said this, the Queen Mother remembered that at the funeral of the Empress Dowager, he also had this opinion in the face of the unlucky words of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

She was stunned, because she had never really understood her son.

It was as if she had truly realized her old age for the first time, and the breath she had been mentioning suddenly dissipated. All of a sudden, it looks like I'm a teenager older.

She sighed and waved her hand: "Forget it, I don't care about these things of you." It's good that you make your own decisions. ”

Since then, the consequences of the court are no longer concerned.

Kangxi also only persuaded her: "The emperor's mother only cares about the old days, and everything in the court is handed over to her son." ”

The Queen Mother didn't say anything more, but gossiped a few words with him, and left him for dinner before letting him go.

At night, after the Queen Mother rested, she couldn't help but sigh.

"I don't know if this concubine is the wronged of his previous life or the creditor of this life." She sighed, "Why is this so?" ”

She couldn't get an answer.

All night, I was half-asleep and half-awake, and I couldn't sleep well.

After Yinyu and Kangxi came back from outside the Saiwai, they chose one day to enter the palace and brought back the medicinal materials from the outside of the Saiwai to their own mother, Wanliu Haliuyan, and brought them together, as well as good fur.

Wan Liuha Liuyan smiled: "You have a heart, I need this." ”

She glanced at the fur, "This looks good." Put it away and send it to your mother in a moment. ”

Yin Yi hurriedly said: "This is for Eniang, Mother De's share has already been prepared, and my son will send it in a while." ”

Wan Liuha Liuyan was extremely satisfied: "It's good that you have this heart." Over the years, your mother will share with me anything. We are not the kind of people who have no heart, if there is anything good, we will also give a share to others. ”

Yin Yi said: "My son knows. ”

Wan Liuha Liuyan said with a smile: "This time, it's hard work." ”

"It's fine." Yin Yi said, "This time, outside the plug, the ninth sister is also there." I went hunting with her, and she gave her a good fox skin. ”

"That's good." Wan Liuha Liuyan asked, "What did you send to Fujin?" ”

"A fox skin, and rabbit skin gauntlets."

Wan Liuha Liuyan nodded again and again when he heard this: "You have a heart." ”

The mother and son talked for a while, and Yinyu went to see Umalu and gave him the fur that he had brought back.

After saluting, Yin Yi said: "The ninth sister said that she asked me to say hello to you, saying that she would enter the palace to see you in a few days." ”

"You've got a heart."

Yin Shuang'er had already prepared things.

After asking a few words about homely things, Umalu saw that the time was not early, so he sent someone to invite Wanliu Haliuyan to have dinner with the two of them.

When Umalu sent Yinyu away, he advised: "You let Fu Jin come to the palace for a walk, and your mother stays alone, thinking about you on weekdays." ”

Yin Yi responded: "Okay, I'll let her come to see Eniang when I go back." ”

The harem is still stable, but the former dynasty is turbulent.

On October 27, the Dutong Eshan, Shangshu Geng'e, Qi Shiwu, and Deputy Dutong Wuli were locked up together, and the prince's party deteriorated.

Yuqing Palace was surrounded without leakage.

Even if Yinren wanted to pass on the letter at this time, no one dared to pass it on for him.

No one else could have come to see him.

There are many officials in Beijing who meet and discuss.

Yinzhen had nowhere to go.

He drifted away from Yinxi.

The fifth and seventh have decided to protect themselves.

It's good to protect yourself.

He sat in his study and practiced calligraphy.

The servant came to report that the thirteenth master Yinxiang had visited.

Yinzhen was happy in his heart, and he got up to greet him, and saw Yinxiang sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by the servant.

Yin Zhen said: "Why are you here?" ”

He blamed: "You have a bad leg, I should have come to see you." ”

He said affectionately again: "I think you have to be tight." ”

As soon as the words came out, he felt that Meng Lang was a little bit worse.

Yinxiang also smiled: "What? Do you only want me, but I don't miss you? I thought of the fourth brother, so I came. ”

Yinzhen was relieved all of a sudden, smiled and took over the work from the little girl's hands, and pushed Yinxiang into the backyard study.

After Yinxiang chatted with Yinzhen for a few words, he said: "Fourth brother, now that the situation between the DPRK and China is unclear, let's continue to be rich and idlers, and don't rush to touch the emperor's father." ”

He advised: "The last time the prince was abolished, one was counted as one, and almost every one of them was guilty. You and the fifth brother alone have nothing to do. But this time it's hard to say. ”

He was silent for a while, and then said, "Just be my brother's partiality." The fourth brother planned for the prince wholeheartedly last time, but he was beaten and scolded by him. I really can't bear to let the fourth brother fall into the house and be a person inside and out. ”

Yin Zhen was silent for a while: "Let me think about it." ”

Yinxiang sighed and said, "Okay." ”

Yin Zhen took the teacup, thought for a moment, and said, "Thirteenth brother, I'll push you out for a walk." ”

"Okay."

The two of them went out of the house.

Yinxiang has to go out these years because of his leg disease, and occasionally goes out to see the difference, which is quite interesting.

Yinzhen asked him: "Wait a few days, let's go to the temple for a walk." ”

Yin Zhen said quite seriously: "Last time, I went to the temple with your fourth sister-in-law to burn incense. I pray that your leg will get better soon. Soon after, I found a doctor who treated your leg. I want to take you to make a vow. ”

Yinxiang smiled: "How did the fourth brother make a wish." ”

Yin Zhen smiled: "Don't care." ”

He is in the temple and is willing to use ten years of life in exchange for Yinxiang's leg to heal.

He was afraid that if he rebuilt the temple and molded the golden body, he would not be able to impress the Buddha and Bodhisattva.

His thirteenth brother is the best in the world, free and easy, and if he wants to go through the world, he should never be trapped in the mansion for many years.

He promised: "When the dust settles, I will accompany you all over the world." ”

"Okay."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Yinzhen is kind and romantic in his bones, he loves everything in this world, and he really wants to be a rich idler.

It's just that his kindness makes him can't bear to see the suffering of the people below.

Therefore, after he had the opportunity to change the suffering of the common people, he chose to give up his private wishes and diligently and conscientiously wanted to govern the Qing Dynasty.

At this time, they didn't expect that later to death, they would not be able to achieve their wishes and travel all over the country.

was later called the best in the universe by Yongzheng, like the vice emperor's Yinxiang, who passed away after hard work.

And Yongzheng, the biggest leisure, is to put on all kinds of clothes and teach painters to paint a few paintings. As if in this way, he can travel all over the country.

However, in the short reign of thirteen years, he also died of hard work.

At this time, the two did not know the final outcome.

Yinxiang smiled and quipped: "Take me with you next time you go to the temple, and I will pray for you, begging you to get what you want and save the people from suffering." ”

His gaze fell on a long-term worker on the side of the road carrying an extremely heavy object.

Yin Zhen followed his gaze, and sighed after a long time: "If one day, the world is like Yao Shun coming again, how good it would be for the people to have no suffering." ”

Yinxiang held his arm and looked up at him: "There will be a day." Even if we can't see it, our sons, grandchildren, grandchildren, will see it one day. ”

Yin Zhen only said for a while: "I hope so." ”

Which reader does not have in his heart the ideal of a worry-free world and a harmonious society.

Confucianism is about self-cultivation, Qi family, ruling the country and leveling the world.

It is because they have no way to escape the world and become a rich idler.

Because Yinxiang spread out the words, Yinzhen didn't speak for the prince Yinren after thinking about it a few times.

Just think he is selfish, after all, he can't be like the fourteenth brother, for the sake of brotherhood, and ignore his mother, wife and children.

It's just that he feels guilty in his heart, thinking that if he has the opportunity, he can protect it.

On November 16, Kangxi will abolish the crown prince and send officials to sue for heaven and earth, Taimiao, and Sheji.

Yinren is still imprisoned in Xian'an Palace.

The older princes, after this incident, have all stopped fighting for power.

There are still lessons to be learned.

They only took care of the things that Kangxi explained, and they didn't dare to make any changes.

Umalu hasn't seen Yinzhen for a long time, and he has become more quiet.

She learned from Yinzhen Fujin that Yinzhen was still close to Yinzhen, but because Yinzhen was tight, Jiubeizi Yinzhen sometimes gave him some money.

When Umalu heard this, he could only sigh and say, "Providence is so."

Whether she does it or not, what she does, she is just pushing history and letting history go in its original direction.

She's the praying mantis that blocks the car.

After Umalu shook his head slightly, he no longer tried to do anything, but just told Yin Shuang'er that there was no need to stop Yinzhen in the future.

Only Yinzhen was still angry with her and no longer entered the palace to see her.

And Umalus said nothing, but let him go.

In December, Kangxi finally freed up his hands to discuss the reward for meritorious deeds, because in the "Entrusting Qi Father and Son for Corruption and Non-Bill", several people worked quite hard, and the verification was perfect, and they really deserved to be rewarded.

Kangxi rewarded Yinzhi, Yinzhen, Yinqi, and Yinyou, each with 5,000 taels of silver.

In addition, Prince Heshuocheng Yinzhizi Hongsheng and Prince Heshuoheng Yinqizi Hongsheng are all sons. The shift is according to the grade of the shellfish.

After that, Yinqi also got a mansion and took up a post in the south of the Rehe Summer Resort.

Later generations called it "the old five masters' mansion".

Kangxi is getting older and older, and his health has been getting worse and worse recently, and he rarely comes to the harem, but it does not prevent him from growing old and strong. Flipped the cards a few times.

In the harem, there was news that the concubine was pregnant.

When Umalu heard about it, he didn't care, but played leaf cards with Tong Jia Cangxue, He Concubine, and Wan Liuhaliuyan.

Several other people didn't care, and made an appointment to eat shabu-shabu for dinner while playing cards.

Wan Liuhaliu said: "The shabu-shabu is good, when it's cold, it tastes hot." ”

Umalu nodded and asked her, "How is your son doing?" ”

"How about it, let's go into the palace once in a while." Wan Liuha Liuyan played a card, "Anyway, I call him to be honest, don't mix blindly." ”
