Qing Dynasty Crossover

Chapter 500
In October of the 61st year of Kangxi, Kangxi's condition did not improve, but tended to worsen. Although all the princes took turns to live in Changchun Garden, Kangxi knew in his heart that he might not be able to survive this year, so he tried his best to stabilize Most of the remaining time in court affairs is spent recalling the past with Ling Zhu, recalling his emperor's life, and telling a personal anecdote from his mouth.Ling Zhu saw the declining Kangxi and heard from Qi Luo that he died of illness in this year in history, so he invested more sincere feelings for this aging emperor.

Ling Zhu has flattered and plotted against Kangxi for the safety of his family, but how could there be no friendship in the past 20 years of getting along?At this time, facing Kangxi, Ling Zhu was more open-minded. He only wanted to let the old emperor enjoy sincere care and respect. He was really lonely and there were too many people plotting against him.

Kangxi noticed that Ling Zhu's courage had grown, and he could feel his hidden concern even more. He was filled with emotions, and he was more indulgent towards him, enjoying this rare friendship like a brother, a monarch and a minister, and a confidant. .Sitting cross-legged on the kang, Kangxi held chess pieces in his hands, looked at the frowning face of the person in front of him, and with a smile on his lips, he sighed and said, "I still clearly remember the first time I saw you. "

"Your Majesty, do you still remember?" Ling Zhu's eyes also showed a bit of reminiscence. In order to free his daughter from the fate of being a princess to Yinzhen, he resolutely walked into the core of power. Arrived with a clear conscience. "Back then, the slave Meng Lang made the emperor laugh."

"Ling Zhu, it's my pride to promote you in the midst of the wilderness. You did not disappoint me. The Raksha Kingdom opened up its territory in the first battle. You also trained my guards and Qi Jue for me. These will surely be remembered in history, people of future generations will not despise you because of the villain's lies, and I will be praised by future generations if I get along with you as a monarch and minister."

"Your Majesty, slave." A few tears also appeared in Ling Zhu's eyes. Kangxi raised his hand to hold his shoulder, and said softly, "When the horse was startled, you looked calm and calm, I knew you were capable, yes My servant, but I never thought that it would be you who will be by my side in the end."

Kangxi frowned while coughing, and also couldn't figure out why he just trusted him and doted on him. Although he was reckless, he always felt as if he was hiding something, "You, you...you have nothing to tell me?"

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks that this is probably the fate of the previous life." Hearing this and seeing Ling Zhu's sincere eyes again, Kangxi was relieved, covered his forehead with his hands, patted Ling Zhu on the head, and scolded with a smile, "How can I be with you?" Without the fate of the previous life, I can't look down on you, it's better to be a monarch and minister."

Ling Zhu rubbed his forehead and smirked. Could it be that he said something wrong?Thinking about it carefully, it seems that something is wrong.On the chessboard, the two competed. After several years of training, Ling Zhu's chess strength improved by leaps and bounds, and he was evenly matched with Kangxi, which made Kangxi even more interested.

Kangxi was old, weak and sick. Ling Zhu planned to reveal a flaw quietly and was about to end the game, but Kangxi passed out suddenly. This is also the last chess game played by Emperor Kangxi and Zhiyuan Gong Lingzhu. Although it is an endgame, it is also the pinnacle of many games in their lives, leaving many guesses for future generations.

Ling Zhu hurriedly called the imperial physician, and after some diagnosis and treatment, Kangxi slowly came to his senses, motioned to Ling Zhu to help him up, looked at the imperial physician with sharp eyes for a long time, and then asked, "How long is it?"

The imperial doctor's body trembled, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I see that your dragon body is getting better, so I will definitely do it."

"Tell me the truth, I want to know the details." Kangxi directly interrupted the imperial physician, with impatience in his tone, the imperial physician knelt on the ground, and said in a low voice, "If God blesses the emperor, he will definitely jump over. At the end of the year, the servant deserves to die." The imperial physician repeatedly kowtowed to plead guilty.

Although Kangxi was prepared in his heart, facing death, he couldn't take it any longer. He closed his eyes and waved to the imperial physician, telling him to withdraw.Ling Zhu didn't know what to say next to him, so he could only accompany him silently.

After a while, just when Ling Zhu thought that Kangxi was fast asleep, Kangxi suddenly said, "Li Dequan, pass on my will, and Prince Yong Yinzhen will sacrifice to heaven on my behalf."

"Follow the order." Li Dequan bowed his head to receive the order, and Kangxi's sharp eyes fell on Ling Zhu, "What do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty, this servant feels that the fourth elder brother should sacrifice to the heavens, but... but the people around him must be careful, and this servant is worried that Prince Yong will have an accident."

"You are clearly planning for him." Kangxi's tone was full of sarcasm, and a bit of envy welled up in his heart. Ling Zhu knelt down, looked into Kangxi's eyes and said seriously, "Your Majesty, although this slave has selfish intentions, he will never do it." Disloyalty and unrighteousness, the servant is worried that my elder brothers are unfilial, and it will hurt your heart again."

Kangxi withdrew the sharpness in his eyes, and sighed, "What you said makes sense, those unfilial sons have already disregarded any brotherhood, and the most are the ruthless emperor's family. I originally wanted to have more children and more blessings, but I These unfilial sons of mine, all they think about is the throne, how can there be an emperor?"

Waving his hand to stop Ling Zhu from trying to persuade him, Kangxi continued to order, "Let the guard Qi Jue choose his bodyguards to accompany Prince Yong to sacrifice to heaven. With Qi Jue here, the fourth child will not be in danger, and I will not let him be in any more danger." .”

"The emperor is holy." Ling Zhu thought for a long time, and finally squeezed out this sentence. Kangxi murmured to himself, "Shengming? How much have I heard this in my life? I hope that my final decision can make my ancestors stable. Fourth child Don't live up to my expectations."

In the next few days, Kangxi ordered Ling Zhu to go back to the Duke's mansion to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors in the name of being arrogant and domineering and offending Shengyan, and he was not allowed to see him without an edict.Under the watchful eyes of Elder Brother Si Ji, Ling Zhu was escorted back to the capital by the imperial guards.Kangxi even reprimanded Ling Zhu sharply in front of the elder brothers who pretended to beg for mercy, as if he had cut off the feelings of a monarch and his ministers.

Kangxi's superb performance made everyone a little suspicious, but they were also skeptical. Eight elder brothers felt that no matter what Kangxi planned, Ling Zhu's absence would make things run more smoothly, so that he would not get in the way and cause trouble.As for Yinzhen's sacrifice to heaven, since Yinsi decided to fight hard, he was more open-minded, and wished that Yinzhen could not be in a hurry.

The Fourteenth Elder Brother is different from Yinsi, he is really jealous from the bottom of his heart, seeing Yinzhen being surrounded by everyone to worship the heavens on behalf of Kangxi, his eyes almost burst into flames, but he knows that the power is weak now, so he treats Ba Ah Brother was even more affectionate, as if he was looking forward to his horse's head, and although he was impatient with the mocking and provocative remarks of Brother Jiu from time to time, his face would not show any dissatisfaction.

In Prince Yong's mansion, after Qi Luo learned that Yinzhen was going to worship the heavens, he knew that Kangxi might not be able to hold on anymore, and even counting the days, he was indeed approaching the time of his death. This point of history has not changed in any way. .Originally, I was very worried about Yinzhen's safety, but I heard that Qi Jue led the guards to accompany him, and coupled with Yinzhen's secret strength, it should be fine.

Qi Luo looked at the branches blown by the wind outside, there was no leaf on them, and he looked depressed and lonely, and sighed softly, "It's really raining and the wind is coming, can he get what he wants, and what will happen in the future? "These problems have been bothering her recently, and she can't even sleep well in her dreams. Although she can't see clearly in the dream, she is always yelling.

The drama of seizing the heir for many years is about to come to an end, and Qi Luo has also put away the leisurely and complacent days of the past, and has stricter control over Prince Yong's Mansion. In the morning and evening, they were ordered to not leave the courtyard, and honestly embroidered Buddhist scriptures to pray for Kangxi.

He even changed his questioning of Hongshi, and earnestly persuaded Mo not to have anything to do with outsiders. He looked at Hongshi's face with indifference, and occasional eagerness and persistence, and even hinted at the slightest complaint.Qi Luo suppressed his impatience, and said calmly, "Hongshi, let me advise you again, the concubine De is not in good health and needs to rest, so don't disturb her."

Hongshi was stunned for a moment, with anger on his face, "Are you asking someone to follow me?" Seeing Qi Luo's half-smile expression, as if he didn't care about him at all, he became even more angry from embarrassment, and said loudly, "I'm not like you Similarly, Ama changed her patriarchal title and refused to recognize Mam. She was ruthless and greedy for the honor of her own son. Mam was right. When you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous person. It was you who provoked Ama and Mam. Zhiyuan Gong Ling Zhu's lies will make Huang Ma change his law."

Qi Luo raised his hand and slapped Hongshi's mouth. His eyes, which were as calm as water in the past, seemed to be two clusters of burning flames. Ruyu's soft and delicate face revealed a stern look. He stared at Hongshi and reprimanded, "Say it again, those who are disloyal and unfilial Who is it? Is it the prince? Hongshi, you are so confused, I don't believe you don't know the mind of Concubine De."

"You, you... dare to hit me? Why are you?" Hongshi looked unbelievable. He understood how important the identity of Yinzhen's son-in-law was, but the son-in-law was also an eternal pain in his heart, which meant He will never be able to accept the title.

"I'm Prince Yong Fujin, and I'm your aunt. Could it be that I can't beat you?" Qi Luo was annoyed. Hongshi resented her, which can be forgiven. Zhen's resentment made Qi Luo feel the weight of history. Thinking of her original oath, she took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Hongshi, no matter what you think of me, your mother's loving father's heart for you is gone. You have less money than Hongmin and the others, if you want to be valued by the prince, you might as well think about how much you have really given."

Hong Shi stared blankly at Qi Luo, a little at a loss, Qin Nanny walked in quickly, approached and whispered back, "Fu Jin, the emperor sent someone to let you enter the Changchun Garden to take care of your illness." Hearing this, Hongshi lowered his head and slowly concealed the confusion in his eyes, reappearing his stern and persistent look. He used to be a prince, so how could he give up so easily in the future?

"Hongshi, you should close the door and think about your mistakes." Qi Luo got up and walked out, leaving a light order, "Hongshi grounds his feet and is not allowed to step out of the palace."

Ps Kangxi did not die, hehe, it should be very interesting for Qi Luo to come to the scene in the next chapter, remember those two strings of beads?According to my plan, it will all fall into Qi Luo's hands in the end, and Master Kong will receive the boxed lunch in the next chapter.
