Clearly, she doesn't want to be a concubine

Chapter 182
In August, everyone investigated the corruption issue, and the results have already been found out.

It's just that many side belts were found later, all pointing to Prince Yinfeng.

These days, they have been hesitating whether to report or not.

If so, how should it be reported?

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

Yinzhen spoke first: "This matter has been dragged on for a long time, if it drags on, the emperor's father will be suspicious."

Yinzhen thought it over and said, "This case must definitely be reported."

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

He was silent for a while, and then said: "Fourth brother, these days, I'm wondering if it's possible that the emperor has long known that this matter has something to do with the crown prince."

Yin Qi swallowed: "That's why the emperor sent all four of us out to investigate, because he was afraid that some people would seek personal gain, or they would not dare to continue the investigation."

Among the elder brothers, they currently have the highest status.In order to investigate a corruption case, they were all sent out. I can't allow people to think otherwise.

Hearing this, everyone shuddered and broke into a cold sweat.

With just one move, everyone went to fight for the throne.

They asked themselves that they didn't have the courage to compete for the throne under the watchful eyes of the emperor's father, because they were afraid that they would not end up in the trap.

Yinzhi only felt his heart beating with fear, his voice was a little shrill, he stood 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 you. Let me leave."

The remaining three sat for a long time.

Yinzhen sighed, and said, "Report the truth, it's not something we can stop."

Yinqi and Yinyou nodded one after another.

Everyone settled the matter, wrote a memorial and sent it to the tour team.

Kangxi did not reply for a long time.

Everyone felt that maybe this matter was exposed like this.But on the other hand, I was afraid that after Kangxi came back from outside the Great Wall, something big would happen.

Everyone was worried and worried.

When the courtiers asked questions, they were also perfunctory with excuses.

On September [-]th, the day when Kangxi returned to Beijing from his inspection tour outside the Great Wall, he announced to the princes: "Since the crown prince was restored to power, his madness has increased, his violence and arrogance have increased, and his confusion has become worse. I will rule the world in peace, and I will definitely not pay this person." ! I have already reported to the Empress Dowager, and now Yinfeng will be detained and guarded."

Yinfeng was imprisoned.

After receiving the report, the Empress Dowager wanted to leave it to Kangxi to make the decision, but recalled that the Empress Dowager was worried about her life, so she invited Kangxi to come to the palace for a walk.

The Queen Mother thought it over: "I'm getting old, and I only want my children and grandchildren to be well, but I don't know what mistakes the Crown Prince made, so that you want to abolish him again."

Only then did Kangxi say: "Firstly, since he was re-established, he has colluded with the ministers and caused disasters; secondly, he has the heart of disobedience, and he has privately discussed with others how to get the throne."

"Tell the truth." The queen mother pressed.

Kangxi: "What I say in court are all words from the bottom of my heart. The world I rule must never be handed over to him. He will only let the Qing Dynasty go to another Ming Dynasty."

The Ming Dynasty was full of cliques, chatter flourished, treacherous eunuchs were in power, and slaves were weak.

The queen mother looked at him: "I don't understand the previous affairs, I just want to ask you a question, you abolished the crown prince and established another crown prince. Is it out of personal affection or righteousness."

"Both." After all, Kangxi is no longer the young monarch who was young and vigorous, unwilling to admit his feelings.

He has become more mature and stable, he clearly knows what he wants and what he is doing.

Kangxi said earnestly: "Yu Personality, Yu Dayi, he is the most suitable one, why don't I choose him?"

"The oath of the past..."

Kangxi looked at the Queen Mother firmly, and laughed: "Mother Huang, don't you know that my son has always disbelieved in these ghost stories?"

He laughed: "Even if there is any retribution, just let it fall on me, it has nothing to do with them."

He believes in ghosts and gods, but he doesn't believe that much.

When he said this, the Empress Dowager remembered the unlucky remarks made by the officials of the Ministry of Rites during the funeral of the Empress Dowager, and he also felt the same way.

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

It seemed that it was the first time she truly realized her own aging, and the tone she kept mentioning suddenly dissipated.All of a sudden, I seem to be ten years older.

She sighed and waved her hands: "Forget it, forget it, I don't care about your affairs. You just need to make up your own mind."

After this, Tai Hou no longer interfered with the affairs of the court.

Kangxi also only advised her: "Emperor Niang only cares about taking care of the rest of the world, and leave everything in the court to her son."

The Empress Dowager didn't say anything more, she had a few gossips with him, kept him for dinner, and then let him go.

At night, after the queen mother rested, she couldn't help but sigh.

"I don't know if this Concubine De is his wrongdoing in the previous life, or the creditor in this life." She sighed, "Why is it like this."

She couldn't get an answer.

All night, they were all half-dream and half-awake, unable to sleep well.

Since Yinxuan and Kangxi came back from beyond the Great Wall, he chose a day to enter the palace, and brought back medicinal materials from beyond the Great Wall to his mother-in-law Wanliuha Liuyan, as well as high-quality furs.

Wan Liuha Liu Yan smiled and said: "You have a heart, I need these."

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

Yinxuan hurriedly said: "This one is for Er Niang, Mother De has already prepared the one, and my son will send it to me in a while."

Wanliu Ha Liuyan was extremely satisfied: "It's good if you have this heart. Over the years, your mother will give me a share of everything. We are not the kind of careless people. If there is something good, we will also get a share." to others."

Yinxuan said: "My son knows."

Wan Liuha Liuyan smiled and said, "Beyond the Great Wall, it's been hard work."

"It's okay." Yinxuan said, "Beyond the Great Wall this time, the ninth sister is also here. I went hunting with her concubine, and her concubine gave her a good fox fur."

"That's not bad." Wanliuha Liuyan asked, "What did you give Fujin?"

"A fox fur, and rabbit fur gauntlets."

Wan Liuha Liuyan nodded after hearing the words: "You have a heart."

After the mother and son talked for a while, Yinxuan went to see Umalu and presented him with the fur brought back from outside the Great Wall.

After saluting, Yinxuan said: "Ninth Younger Sister asked me to say hello to you, and said she would come to the palace to see you in a few days."

"You have a heart."

Yin Shuang'er has already prepared things.

After Umalu asked a few questions about the family, seeing that it was late, he sent someone to invite Wanliu Haliuyan to have dinner with the two of them.

When Umalu sent Yinxuan away, he warned: "You let you Fujin come to the palace more often, and your mother-in-law stays alone, and misses you very much on weekdays."

Yin Ying replied: "Okay, let her come to see E Niang when I get back."

The harem is still stable, but the front court is turbulent.

On October 27, Dutong Eshan, Shangshu Geng'e, Qi Shiwu, Deputy Dutong Wuli and others were locked up together, and the prince's party went from bad to worse.

Yuqing Palace was surrounded tightly.

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

It is impossible for other people to come to see him.

Hundreds of officials in Beijing often meet and discuss.

Yinzhen has nowhere to go.

He drifted away from Yinhu.

Lao Wu and Lao Qi have decided to play it safe.

It's good for Mingzhe to protect himself.

He sat in the study and practiced calligraphy.

The servant came to report that the thirteenth Lord Yinxiang was visiting.

Yinzhen was overjoyed, so he stood up to meet him, and saw Yinxiang sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed by a servant.

Yinzhen said, "Why are you here?"

He blamed: "You have bad legs, I should have come to see you."

He said affectionately again: "I think you are tight."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt that meng lang was a little angry again.

Yinxiang also smiled and said: "What's the matter? You are only allowed to miss me, but I am not allowed to miss you? I miss my fourth brother, so I came here."

Yinzhen felt relieved all of a sudden, took over the work from the servant with a smile, and pushed Yinxiang into the study in the backyard.

After chatting with Yinzhen for a few words, Yin Xiang said, "Fourth brother, the current situation in the court is not clear, we'd better continue to be rich and idle people, and don't rush to make trouble for the emperor."

He warned: "Last time when the crown prince was abolished, one person counted as the other, and almost everyone suffered. Only you and fifth brother are fine. But this time it's hard to say."

He was silent for a while, and said: "Just take it as my younger brother's eccentricity. Last time, the fourth brother wholeheartedly planned for the prince, but he was beaten and scolded by him. I really can't bear the fourth brother to fall into the wrong place again."

Yinzhen was silent for a while: "Let me think about it."

Yinxiang sighed, "Okay."

Yinzhen held the teacup, thought for a moment, and said, "Thirteenth brother, I will push you out for a walk."

"it is good."

The two went out of the house.

Because of Yinxiang's leg disease, these young people have to go out, and it is quite interesting to go out occasionally to see the difference.

Yinzhen asked him: "After a while, let's go for a walk inside the temple."

Yinzhen said quite seriously: "The last time I went to the temple with your fourth sister-in-law to burn incense. I prayed, and hoped that your leg will recover quickly. Soon after, I found a doctor who treated your leg. I want to take you there to fulfill your wish. .”

Yinxiang smiled and said, "How did the fourth brother make the wish?"

Yinzhen smiled: "Don't worry about it."

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

He was afraid that rebuilding the temple and rebuilding the golden body would not impress the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

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

He promised: "When everything is settled, I will accompany you all over the world."

"it is good."

The two smiled at each other.

Yinzhen is kind and romantic in his heart, he loves everything in this world, and he also sincerely wants to be a rich and idle person.

It's just that his kindness made him unbearable 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 wish, and worked diligently to govern the Great Qing Dynasty.

At this time, they had no idea at all that until they died, they failed to achieve their wishes and traveled all over the country.

Yinxiang, who was called the best in the universe by the later Yongzheng, who was like a deputy emperor, died of hard work.

As for Yongzheng, the biggest leisure was to wear various clothes and teach painters to draw a few pictures.Just like this, he can travel all over the country.

However, in just 13 years in office, he also died of overwork.

At this time, the two still don't know the final outcome.

Yinxiang laughed and joked: "Take me with you when you go to the temple next time, and I will also pray for you. I hope you can fulfill your wish and save the people from suffering."

His eyes fell on a long-term worker carrying a very heavy load by the side of the road.

Yinzhen followed his gaze, and sighed after a long time: "If one day, the world is like Yao and Shun come again, it will be great for the people to have no suffering."

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

Yinzhen said for a while, "I hope so."

Which scholar does not have an ideal of a world without worries and social harmony in his heart.

What Confucianism talks about is self-cultivation, family governance, state governance and world peace.

It's because they have no choice, so they can only hide from the world and entrust themselves to become a wealthy idler.

Because Yinxiang opened up his words, Yinzhen did not speak for Prince Yinreng after thinking about it for a while.

Just treat him as selfish, after all, he can't be like the fourteenth brother, disregarding his mother-in-law, wife and children for the sake of brotherhood.

He only felt guilty in his heart, thinking, if he had the chance, he would keep it if he could.

On November [-], Kangxi sent officials to sue the heaven and earth, Taimiao, and Sheji about the abolition of the crown prince.

Yinreng was still imprisoned in Xian'an Palace.

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

The lessons learned remain.

They just dealt with the things that Kangxi told them, and they didn't dare to make any changes.

Umalu hasn't seen Yinzhen these days, and she's a little quieter.

She learned from Yinzhen Fujin that Yinzhen and Yinhu were still close, but because Yinzhen was short of money, the ninth son Yinhu would sometimes give him some money.

Umalu could only sigh when he heard the words, and said, God's will.

No matter whether she does it or not, what she does is nothing more than promoting history and letting history flow in its original direction.

She is the praying mantis that blocks the car.

After Wu Malu shook his head slightly, he stopped trying to do anything, but told Yin Shuanger not to stop Yinzhen anymore.

Only Yinzhen was still angry with her and never went to the palace to see her again.

Umalu didn't say anything, just let him go.

In December, Kangxi finally freed up his hands to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards, because several people worked very hard in the "Tuo Heqi father and son's embezzlement crime", and the investigation was complete, so they really deserved a reward.

Kangxi rewarded Yinzhi, Yinzhen, Yinqi, and Yinyou with 5000 taels of silver each.

In addition, Hongsheng, the son of Yinzhi, Prince of Heshuocheng, and Hongsheng, the son of Yinqi, Prince of Heshuoheng, are both crowned princes.The shift salary depends on the child's grade.

After that, Yinqi got a mansion and worked in the south of Rehe Mountain Resort.

Later generations called it "Lao Wuye Mansion".

Kangxi is getting older, and his health has been getting worse lately, so he doesn't come to the harem less often, but it doesn't prevent him from growing old and strong.Turned over the sign a few times.

There was news that the concubine was pregnant in the harem.

When Umalu heard about it, he didn't care, but played leaf cards with Tong Jia Cangxue, He Bi, Wan Liuha Liuyan.

A few other people didn't care too much, they made an appointment to eat shabu-shabu for dinner while playing cards.

Wanliu Haliuyan said: "shabu-shabu is good, it tastes hot when it's cold."

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

"What can I do, come to the palace to meet up occasionally." Wan Liuha Liuyan played a card, "Anyway, I told him to be honest, don't meddle in it."
