Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother

After watching the whole process, Honghui breathed a sigh of relief. He finally got what he wanted!

The process of deposing the crown prince was a secret, so he didn't know why his uncle was so disliked by the emperor. But his father had mentioned it once or twice, saying that his uncle had once spoken up for the crown prince and said a few harsh words.

As for what serious words were spoken, only heaven and earth knew, as did the Emperor Mafa and Uncle Thirteen, but others knew nothing about it.

Those who knew too much were silenced!

But Uncle Thirteen, how can you feel sorry for the Crown Prince? Isn't this Qing waiting for the Queen to vent her anger on him?

Honghui understood Huang Mafa's anger after a little immersion - the Emperor himself wasn't even dead yet, yet they were all rushing to show their loyalty to the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince made a call one day, wouldn't everyone be planning to follow him?

Although the Crown Prince was indeed pitiful, he had been spoiled by decades of favoritism and had forgotten that the Emperor was not only his father but also the ruler of a country. His various transgressions eventually aroused fear, and he was then deposed and imprisoned for life, and his end was extremely miserable.

Honghui expressed deep sympathy for this, but the throne could not be taken by the second uncle of the crown prince! A successor who implemented benevolent policies just like the emperor could not see the people at the bottom of society. The second uncle of the crown prince was too proud!

Now let’s get back to the topic and talk about Uncle Thirteen.

Uncle Thirteen was too young and impetuous at the time, and he did not think things through. How could he have imagined that his momentary impulse would almost ruin his life?

Looking at his Thirteenth Uncle who was hanging his head and looking a little depressed, Honghui racked his brain and came up with an idea.

"Uncle Thirteen, Aunt Wen Ke married far away in the frontier, she is homesick and helpless. Why don't you send someone to visit her? I wonder if the emperor passed by Aunt Wen Ke during his inspection tour in the frontier? Otherwise, you can go and see her in person to comfort Aunt Wen Ke's feelings! Nephew thinks that if you see the person in person, you will feel relieved, right?"

Yinxiang was quite tempted and couldn't help but look up, "Okay, I'll go and support her." He hadn't seen his older sister for four or five years!

"Okay, we've explained everything that needs to be said. It's getting late, so we won't stay any longer..."

"Fourth brother, how long have you been here? Please stay for dinner. I still have a lot to say to you!"

Yinzhen stood up and said with a faint smile: "No, let's leave it for next time! I still have to go to the Fourteenth Old Man's house later, so I can't delay any longer."

Soon after, the father and son left the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion and headed straight for the Fourteenth Prince's Mansion which was not far away.

As for the various instructions, there is no need to say more. They are just to ask you to be cautious and not get involved in the dispute between the Crown Prince and the Prince of Zhi!

……

Two days later, the emperor set out on a tour to inspect the frontier areas, accompanied by Prince Zhi, the Crown Prince, and the Thirteenth Prince, Fourteenth Prince, Fifteenth Prince, Sixteenth Prince, Seventeenth Prince, and Eighteenth Prince.

Thus, the process of deposing the crown prince officially began.

Honghui did not pay any more attention to what happened next, as he had done everything he could. Whether "fate is determined by heaven" or "man can conquer nature" would depend on the choices made by those in the situation!

He went to the palace to study as usual, but when he returned home he did not return to the Fourth Prince's Mansion, but went to the newly built garden to escape the summer heat.

Yes, in mid-May, the garden that had been under construction for three years was finally completed!

This garden is still named "Yuanmingyuan", and above the door of the Yuanming Hall hangs a plaque with the emperor's calligraphy, which makes Honghui feel as if he is seeing something.

In fact, to be honest, the construction of the Old Summer Palace is by no means as exquisite and luxurious as that in the previous life. The reason for this is that my father had not yet been conferred the title of prince, so there were some differences in the regulations.

But this garden covers a very large area, the houses face the lake, and the breeze blows across the lake, bringing bursts of freshness to your face. It is indeed a great place to escape the summer heat!

Not only Honghui thought so, but everyone in the mansion thought so, so as soon as the Old Summer Palace was completed, all the masters in the mansion moved there to escape the summer heat, even the Fourth Prince, who was only a little over a month old, was taken there.

During this period, both father and son were quite free. One only had to attend classes half a day and asked for permission to return to the Old Summer Palace every day to escape the summer heat, while the other wanted to withdraw and deliberately declined the opportunity to take care of the affairs in Beijing. The two of them toured the Old Summer Palace together.

As the owner of the Old Summer Palace, Yinzhen was particularly fond of this garden. He admired it everywhere all day long. In just ten days, he had visited all the scenic spots and also bestowed a bunch of plaques.

While he was writing, Honghui was grinding ink in front of him, and also praised the name from all angles, saying it was a very good choice!

There are still some familiar names, such as Upper and Lower Tianguang, Xinghuachun Pavilion, Natural Painting, etc., which have a rudimentary shape, but more palaces are still nowhere to be seen, and they will not be unveiled until at least ten years later.

They were so engrossed in visiting the Old Summer Palace that both father and son ignored a piece of news coming from outside the Great Wall, which was that the emperor was staying in the Rehe Palace.

By the time Honghui remembered this, it was already July. By then, his school time had returned to the afternoon, and going back every three days was back on his schedule. However, he only asked briefly and then let it go because there were more important things that attracted his attention.

——The first self-made clock made by the people of the Qing Dynasty has finally come out!

On the fifth day of July, Yinzhen ran to the study room with excitement on his face.

"The chiming clock! I have the chiming clock!"

What do you mean? What happened to the self-ringing clock? Honghui asked in confusion: "Uncle Jiu, what do you mean by this?"

"My craftsmen have made a self-ringing clock. It is quite accurate. Although it is not as exquisite and attractive as Western self-ringing clocks, it is the first self-ringing clock in my Qing Dynasty!" Yinzhen could not hide his excitement and even felt a little proud.

"Really?" Honghui moved closer excitedly, his tone unable to conceal his excitement, "Uncle Jiu is really amazing! Over the years, no one in the Qing Dynasty has been able to make a self-ringing clock, but Uncle Jiu is the only one! This self-ringing clock must have cost Uncle Jiu a lot of effort..."

A series of compliments came out of his mouth, making Yinzhen more and more delighted, with a sense of satisfaction that he didn't know what year it was.

"I took my craftsmen with me to dismantle eight or nine Western self-ringing clocks and a dozen pocket watches, spending hundreds of thousands of silver taels, almost half of the money I earned in the past two years, before I made my own self-ringing clock. This Western self-ringing clock looks mysterious, but in fact, it's just like that. The cost, well, you must not know how much a self-ringing clock costs?..."

"It won't be more than ten taels, right?"
