Qing Dynasty Crossover

Chapter 423 Who does the will belong to?
Just when everyone thought that Kangxi would not establish a crown prince again, he unexpectedly summoned old courtiers frequently, and asked Li Guangdi what he thought of the princes during the chat. After inquiring, the veteran thinks that the eighth elder brother is the most virtuous, and his generosity and benevolence are the most similar to the emperor."

Kangxi was stunned for a moment, and looked around at the old courtiers who had assisted him for a long time, "You all agree?" Everyone hesitated for a long time, and then nodded. Kangxi looked at their gray beards, and felt very bitter in his heart. Disgusted to this point, still think he has hope?Is it really necessary to enclose Yinsi, these people can understand, the gloomy eyes flashed past, seeing the secrets of Xianyang Palace, Kangxi's heart was a little loose, and Yinreng, who was personally raised, has been encircled into a seductive place Although Yin Si is not filial, he is still his son.

"The eighth elder brother learns from me everywhere, and he doesn't learn like him everywhere, and he comes from a lowly background, so he can't afford the Qing Dynasty." After hearing this, everyone knelt down and pleaded guilty, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for lying."

Kangxi glanced at the crowd, and said in a firm tone, "I will choose a master with a strong character, an invincible ambition, and a precious status for you. What the Qing Dynasty needs is not someone like me. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand." In fact, they didn't understand at all, or they valued the eighth prince too much, and they didn't even want to think about it.After Kangxi summoned him this time, he waited happily for a long time, but he never got a memorial to recommend Yinzhen.

Kangxi sighed, this may be because Yinzhen was destined to be unable to become the prince, thinking of his age and frail body, he waved away the crowd, and under the dancing candlelight, wrote the will in Han and Mongolian with his own hand, and it was correct After that, he stamped with the jade seal and private seal, stroked the name on it with his fingers for a long while, put the edict into the wooden box wrapped in yellow cloth, looked down at the Buddhist beads that never left his body, and slowly stepped back. Down, wanting to put it together with the will, Kangxi's hand paused for a while, but he took it back, put on the beads again, caressed, the past memories jumped into his mind, her docility, her cunning, her purity, etc. , Kangxi felt her shadow all around, "Minmin, how about you accompany me till the end?"

Kangxi took a deep breath, closed the box and locked it, and suddenly recalled Ling Zhu's words in his ears, so that the ministers who had been with him for a long time couldn't understand it, and it might not be safe to find out what he pretended to be with just a will. The red sandalwood box of the posthumous edict, I took out the edict and read it again, copied a copy again, and kept it in a seal.There were three boxes in front of him, and Kangxi was in a dilemma, which one should he hand over?The figures of the important officials of the clan slowly filtered in his mind, and the faces of the two people became clear in his eyes. Their status and status are all suitable for holding the will, and he patted the wooden box, "It's not that I don't think about you, It's God's will."

In the court, Kangxi wore the emperor's nine-dragon formal attire and the emperor's court crown, sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the important ministers and relatives kneeling under the Danbi, the emperor's power on his body was even heavier, and everyone was a little breathless Ling Zhu understood that this should be the legendary aura of the emperor.

"I have something to announce about my ascension to court today. As I am getting older, I should consider the matter of inheriting the throne." Hearing Kangxi's loud words, everyone lowered their heads but held their hearts. The faces of the princes changed slightly, and their hearts It seemed as if he was about to jump out of his chest, even if he knew that the prince was hopeless, he still felt uneasy.Yinzhen is very good at hiding his emotions. Although his eyes cannot hide the fluctuations, he is still very calm as usual.

"I have decided not to set up a reserve in my lifetime." The ministers knew it well, after all, Kangxi once said this when he was the second abolished prince, so it is not surprising to say it now.Kangxi went on to say, "I have thought about it again and again, and I have drawn up three copies of the edict, one of which will be placed behind the upright plaque. After the dragon emperor returns to heaven, the nine admirals under the command of the infantry will read my edict, and the other two will be handed over to the proper If I find out, I will kill the Nine Clans."

"I will obey the order." Kangxi felt very proud when he saw the stunned look of the crowd.Ling Zhu bowed his head and couldn't help but wonder who were those two people who kept the will?Feeling that everyone was secretly looking at him, Ling Zhu felt very wronged.

"Li Dequan, in front of me and all the ministers, put the edict behind the plaque." Li Dequan pulled off the horseshoe sleeve, and solemnly kowtowed, "Tah, I will obey the emperor's orders." Climb up the ladder and put the wooden box in front of everyone After putting it away, Kangxi spoke again, "From now on, whoever dares to set foot on the Danbi of Qianqing Palace is a person who is disloyal and plotting rebellion, and I will also punish his nine clans, you should keep it in mind."

"The minister will never forget." Kangxi calmed down at this time, nodded slowly, stood up, the honey-colored chaozhu on his chest was swinging, making a soft and crisp sound, supported him with his hands, and glanced at the important minister again, "Retire the court" . " After finishing speaking, he walked away in a hurry, and the sound of sending off the emperor resounded throughout the Qianqing Palace.

After the princes got up, they stopped in the hall, looked up at the plaque on the throne, their eyes couldn't hide their hotness, not to mention that they were important ministers and relatives, they couldn't help looking and guessing, Ling Zhu couldn't help but pull away, he really couldn't bear it The eyes of everyone guessing.

The corners of Yinzhen's mouth turned up slightly, he was by no means the holder of the will, ignoring the dazed brother, he was the first one of the princes to leave.The eighth elder brother kept paying attention to Yinzhen, and then looked at Yinzhen who was trying his best to be calm, but his emotions were somewhat exposed, and the idea in his heart became more and more determined.

Yin Si bid farewell to the people and went back to the mansion, sitting in the study, couldn't help but think carefully, what Kangxi summoned the old officials said a while ago, someone told him, he fully understood, the name on the will will never be him.Yinsi clenched his fists tightly, and there was a trace of irritability and a little bit of resentment in his warm eyes, "Huang Ama, my son is not like you at all, why are you so partial? Concubine De is no taller than my mother-in-law in terms of background. Where? Why do you value him so much? Is it because he was raised by Empress Tong? "

With some disbelief, Yin Si walked around the room in a state of anxiety, his expression became more dignified and struggling, he didn't know how to make a decision, and he wanted to discuss it with others, but how could he talk about it with others?After walking in the house for an entire hour, the sky outside was gradually getting dark. There were no candles lit in the room, so it was naturally pitch black. At the end, Yinsi stomped his feet fiercely, and there was a hint of viciousness in his bloodshot eyes. It made his face hideous and frightening, and he could still have a chance if he tried, otherwise he would not even have a shred of hope. He sat back on the chair, patted the armrest of the rosewood round chair, and thought carefully, is there any chance? For omissions, even if you fail in the end, you can't let the fire burn on yourself.

When the sun was about to set, Yinzhen returned to the palace from Hubu. He got off the carriage and stopped and did not go to the study as usual. Instead, he walked briskly towards Qi Luo's courtyard. Hu Bu, but his mind was always on the will, and he secretly weighed it all afternoon, thinking that if he did not make mistakes and provoke Kangxi's dislike, he should be able to succeed to the throne smoothly. When he walked through the courtyard, he saw Qi Luo rushing over in a hurry. He stopped and turned his head to ask the people around him.

Yinzhen stopped in his tracks, because Qi Luo turned his head to follow Yinzhen who was on the other side, and walked quickly past him, Yinzhen's good mood was completely destroyed, and he couldn't help but lower his voice He shouted, "Stop."

Qi Luo realized something was wrong at this time, turned around and saw Yinzhen's darkened face, his heart tightened, and he said stammeringly, "Master, it's really early for you to return home today, are you not busy with the household affairs?"

"Come here." Yinzhen's tone became more and more cold, Qi Luo bit his lip, walked to him and bowed his head to admit his mistake, "I was too anxious, that's why I didn't see you."

The buttons on her cheongsam are still tightly buttoned, but the gemstone buttons on the cloak are only half buttoned up. Yinzhen frowned at the center of her brows, glanced at the servants around, and stretched out her hand to button up the buttons, "How are you like this?" Where are you going in a hurry?"

"Master, Lord." Qi Luo grasped Yinzhen's sleeves tightly, with anxious eyes, "Qi Jue's wife, the Lord Herui gave birth, and I'm going to the Duke's mansion, Lord, please bear with me."

After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, it was that kid again, why is it always endless?Slowly relaxing his brows, "Are you really going to the Duke's Mansion?" Qi Luo turned her head and nodded slightly in surprise, "Go with you, so I won't make you more troublesome."

Qi Luo pursed her lips and didn't dare to refute, and as Yinzhen got into the carriage, Qi Luo didn't care about Yinzhen's face along the way, and kept urging loudly to go faster, to go faster.When they arrived at the Duke's Mansion, Qi Luo jumped off the carriage without waiting for the attendants to put down the step stool, and walked quickly to the delivery room in the inner house. It was arranged by her personally, so she was very familiar with it. Yinzhen squinted his eyes, This girl should be taught well, so as not to lose sight of him and get hurt in a hurry, she stepped on the back of the servant and got out of the carriage. Looking at the step stool on the carriage, she would never step on the servant to get into the carriage.

The housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion hurriedly stepped forward and kowtowed, "Greetings to the prince."

"Get up." Yinzhen said calmly, without any emotion, "Where is Duke Zhiyuan now? The study?"

"If you go back to the prince, the master and wife are waiting outside the delivery room, and the second master has also rushed back from the guards." Yin Zhen was stunned for a long time, shaking his head secretly, Ling Zhu was really unexpected, since they were all there, it is also possible. It's not easy to go to the living room, so I can only ask the housekeeper to lead the way to the delivery room awkwardly.

All the masters of the Duke's Mansion were waiting there, and when they saw Yinzhen, they all hurriedly saluted. Qi Jue clenched his fists, his body trembled slightly, and he kept muttering, "Why is it so long? Did it take so long?"

Qi Luo took Dong Shi's hand and comforted her non-stop. Ling Zhu was quite normal, but his eyes were also restless. Yin Zhen stood beside Qi Luo quietly, holding back the words of comfort, and his eyes fell on After touching Qi Huan for a while, he took it back.

At this time, Sijia uttered a mournful cry in the delivery room, and immediately heard the surprise voice of the giving birth mother inside, "I have given birth, I have given birth." Twins, there is another one in the belly."

Qi Luo muttered softly, "Twins again? There really are genetic factors." After half a cup of tea, and hearing the baby's cry, everyone was relieved, and then the nanny came out and carried the two wrapped babies to the bed. Before congratulating her, Mrs. Dong spoke first, "How is my daughter-in-law? Has she ever been safe?"

"Go back to Madam, the Second Mistress just passed out from exhaustion, everything is fine, Madam, please don't worry." The nanny is Sijia's dowry, and she was grateful when she heard Dong's concern for the princess, and said softly, "Second Mistress gave birth to twins." daughter."

Dong didn't show any dissatisfaction, and took it, Qi Luo hugged the other one, touched her red face lightly with her fingers, then looked at the one in Dong's arms, and said with a smile, "Er Niang, these two Although one is a twin, I really don't imagine it, mine is more like Qiuqiu."

Mrs. Dong nodded, and said to Qi Jue, "After the delivery room is cleared up, you go in and have a look at Sijia, and say something kindly, it's really hard work at such a young age."

"My son is awake." Qi Jue leaned closer, looked at his daughter in the arms of Dong Shi and Qi Luo, with a smile on his face, Ling Zhu hurriedly ordered the housekeeper to hang the objects of Nongwa Zhixi at the gate of the house, and shouted He smiled and said, "Come and show me, this is my precious granddaughter."

Yinzhen felt that this family was completely different from others, and that daughters were more honored and favored in their eyes, so Mammy wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, and there was no chance to say the comforting words in her heart, "Mammy, who is the elder sister? " Qi Luo asked softly.

"The one in Madam's arms is my sister." Qi Luo compared and kissed the baby in his arms lightly, "Looking at your figure, you are a little smaller than my sister, just like a kitten. My aunt gave you a little baby." How about just calling it Cat?" The baby opened his mouth and let out a sigh, "You think it sounds nice too, don't you? Cat."

"What about this one?" Dong couldn't help asking, Qi Luo thought for a while and said, "Let's call her Rui'er."

Ling Zhu said three good things in a row, and Yinzhen looked at Qi Luo who was proud, feeling helpless, and seeing Qi Jue's objection but dared not speak out, sympathy flashed in his eyes.

"Is it a big name?" Qi Luo seemed to be still thinking about it, frowning and pondering, Qi Jue smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister, why don't you let your brother-in-law name it?" Then he looked at Yinzhen expectantly, Qi Luo was a little hesitant, hesitant Not reconciled, she glanced at Qi Jue and hummed softly, "Are you looking down on my sister? Let me tell you, your name was given by your sister."

"No, no, how dare you look down on my sister?" Qi Jue shook his head again and again, and praised, "My name is nice and easy to remember, and has a good meaning. It really deserves to be chosen by my sister. Others can't think of it."

"Okay." Qi Luo turned to look at Yin Zhen, and begged, "You are a noble person, so I will definitely give them a good name, and they can also be blessed by you."

Yinzhen came over and looked at the baby, "Mr. Zhiyuan, what word do they use?"

"Jin." Ling Zhu also looked at Yinzhen eagerly. He had already had trouble naming Qi Huan's two sons, a concubine daughter. Finally, he could get rid of this errand. Yinzhen repeated softly, "Jin, Jin." His eyes flickered After a moment of decision, he said in a deep voice, "The eldest daughter is Jinxuan, and the second daughter is Jinyu."

"Thank you brother-in-law for giving me the name." Qi Jue spoke first, feeling a little grateful in his heart.Qi Luo repeated it twice, and felt it was not bad, so she nodded, Xuan was the legendary Wangyoucao, Jinyu, Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin, this name is really good, Qi Luo looked at the grateful Qi Jue and smiled inwardly.

After the delivery room was tidied up, Mammy held the two babies again and wanted to show Sijia, who was already awake, Qi Jue followed.

Ling Zhu wanted to let Yinzhen have tea in the living room, but Yinzhen held Qi Luo who was about to go to the delivery room, "It's getting late, so I won't bother you." Qi Luo glanced longingly and expressionlessly. Yinzhen knew that he would not change his mind, so he said, "Emiang, I'll go back first, and I will arrive early on the third day of washing." Dong nodded, and Ling Zhu personally sent Yinzhen and the others to leave. Zhen first helped Qi Luo to get into the carriage, and when he was about to get into the carriage, Ling Zhu took a step forward and said in a very low voice, "I don't." After getting into the carriage, he lowered the curtain and ordered "Go back to the mansion."

Ling Zhu looked at the carriage going away, shook his head and walked back.Qi Luo noticed that Yinzhen was in a happy mood, and frowned slightly. He couldn't be happy because Qi Jue had a daughter. Yinzhen stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, and said softly, "Huang Ama already has a successor. Placed behind the upright plaque."

Qi Luo approached Yinzhen's arms docilely, knowing in his heart that he should have sensed that he was the successor. At this moment, he didn't dare to say anything, but just replied softly, "Master, I believe in you." Yinzhen hugged her He squeezed even tighter, closed his eyes, and listened to the rumble of the carriage, the chair appeared in front of his eyes, and it was only a step away from himself.

ps. Khan, I forgot about the pregnant Sijia, Qi Jue has twin daughters, hehe, Kangxi’s performance has led to some things, it should be interesting, maybe there is some blood, hehe, hehe, I finally feel good about Ba Ah Brother, I am a loyal Fourth and Fourth Party.
