Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

Chapter 210 Yinzhen's Sacrifice at Mount Tai

The main purpose of Emperor Kangxi's trip was to offer sacrifices to Mount Tai.

The auspicious date calculated by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory cannot be changed.

The only solution for now is to let Yinreng stay in the Dezhou Palace for recuperation.

Although Emperor Kangxi was reluctant, he had no choice but to do so.

In his heart, Baocheng's life is still important.

He was not very reassured about leaving Yinreng here alone, so he had to ask someone whom both he and Yinreng trusted to take care of Yinreng.

After much thought, Emperor Kangxi thought of Soetu.

Soetu was Yinreng's great-uncle, and he and Yinreng had a relationship of sharing weal and woe. They had always been very close, so he could rest assured by asking Soetu to come and take care of Yinreng when he was ill.

Seeing that the prince was fine, Yixiu and Yinzhen also said goodbye.

But before leaving, Yixiu clearly saw a flash of disappointment across Yinzhi's face.

It was a pleasant surprise for Yinzhi that Emperor Kangxi brought him out this time.

He was jealous of Yinreng for being born the crown prince, and had been fighting openly and secretly with Yinreng for years.

Today I heard that Yinreng was suffering from intestinal abscess, and I had secretly hoped that Yinreng would die.

Now that he was rescued, Yinzhi was naturally disappointed.

If Yinreng died, wouldn't the position of crown prince fall to him?

What is Baocheng? His name "Baoqing" represents the emperor's most earnest hopes.

Baoqing, doesn’t it mean “bless my Great Qing Dynasty”?

Yinzhi felt mixed emotions and even hated Wen Shao.

A nosy imperial physician.

He couldn't do anything to Yinreng now, but he could find an opportunity to deal with the imperial physician.

-----------------

Yinreng fell ill, and the most important issue facing Emperor Kangxi was who would offer sacrifices at Mount Tai.

Starting from Emperor Shunzhi, the Qing Dynasty attached great importance to offering sacrifices to Mount Tai. The emperor should personally pray for the people and ask God to bless the Qing Dynasty with good weather and good harvests.

If the emperor cannot come in person, the crown prince or an important official or relative designated by the emperor will go.

This sacrifice to Mount Tai was originally an opportunity given to Yinreng by Emperor Kangxi.

But he had fun with the actors before he set out, and then he became seriously ill here, so he had to choose someone else.

He brought a total of four sons with him on this southern tour.

Yinzhi was steady, hardworking and studious, and he was his beloved eldest son, so he was a good candidate.

Yinxiang was a man of both literary and military talents. He had great admiration for his imperial father, and acted like a great general at a young age.

Although Yinzhen was inconspicuous and not good at riding and shooting in the past, he always impressed Emperor Kangxi over the years. In addition, Hongchang became stupid, and Emperor Kangxi always had the mentality of making up for the little debt he owed to Yinzhen.

If it were in the past, Emperor Kangxi would have chosen Yinxiang without hesitation.

But at this moment he hesitated.

He thought about it and asked Sandezi to call all three of them over.

Yinzhen received a summons from Eunuch San Dezi and said, "Sorry to bother you, Eunuch. I will go later."

Yixiu asked, "Silang, why did the Emperor call you over at this time?"

In fact, Yixiu guessed that Emperor Kangxi called him over to offer sacrifices to Mount Tai, and probably also called Yinzhi and a few others.

Just a few days ago, Yinzhen had already shown vigilance and suspicion towards her.

She had to pretend in front of Yinzhen.

Yinzhen was extremely suspicious, and she couldn't act smart all the time.

In her previous life, she used Chun Yuan's old clothes to make Yinzhen suspicious of Zhen Huan. Wasn't it because Zhen Huan was involved too much in the affairs of the previous dynasty?

Seeing that Yixiu was confused, Yinzhen patiently explained, "It's probably about the sacrifice to Mount Tai."

"The prince is sick. Can we still offer sacrifices to Mount Tai?" Yixiu looked worried.

"How can we not obey the auspicious day that has been set? The emperor can appoint an important official to come and worship Mount Tai."

"So the Emperor's intention in calling you over this time is... to ask you to offer sacrifices to Mount Tai?"

Yixiu showed surprise on her face.

"No, no." Although Yinzhen denied Yixiu's words, his face showed a determined look, "The emperor must have called my eldest brother and thirteenth brother, I'm afraid he will choose one among the three of us."

"The Emperor has always valued Thirteenth Brother. I don't know if this task will fall on Thirteenth Brother."

Yi Xiu said: "The Thirteenth Brother is still young, and he has a strong brotherly love for you, the Fourth Brother, so he may not necessarily be the Thirteenth Brother."

"If the Emperor favored the Thirteenth Brother, I'm afraid he wouldn't have asked the Fourth Brother to go there."

Yixiu's words gave Yinzhen great confidence.

In fact, he thought so too, but he wanted to be more humble.

-----------------

When he arrived at Emperor Kangxi's place, Yinzhen indeed saw Yinzhi and Yinxiang.

When Yinxiang saw Yinzhen, a look of joy unconsciously appeared on his face.

Emperor Kangxi saw this scene.

Yinzhen was indeed inconspicuous, but he was recognized by his most outstanding son Yinxiang.

It seems that his vision is even more backward than Yinxiang's.

Yinzhi noticed that the emperor's eyes fell on Yinzhen, and felt sad.

He is obviously the eldest son.

After he came in, the emperor hadn't even looked at him carefully yet.

The three of them knew why Emperor Kangxi called them over, but Emperor Kangxi talked to them for a long time but never got to the point.

Just discuss with them the customs and practices along the way.

Yinzhi and Yinxiang didn't pay much attention to this matter. They had been following Emperor Kangxi on the way.

On the other hand, Yinzhen, who would listen to Yixiu talk about interesting things that happened on the way home every night, actually had more insights than the other two.

Moreover, Yixiu not only encountered interesting things, but also saw some of the sufferings of the people because the female carriage was one step slower than the emperor's.

Yixiu also told Yinzhen all this.

Combining what Yixiu said, Yinzhen immediately guessed what Emperor Kangxi meant today.

The purpose of this sacrifice to Mount Tai is to pray for the people and for the Qing Dynasty. The people's peace and prosperity is an important part of the continuation of the Qing Dynasty.

Whoever understands the people's sentiments on the road truly has the people in his heart.

Emperor Kangxi originally wanted Yinxiang to complete this task, but at this time he changed his mind and felt that Yinzhen was the best candidate.

After talking with his three sons, he let them go back.

Soon, Emperor Kangxi's decree was delivered to Yinzhen's room.

Yinzhen was very surprised.

At this time, he also thought of Emperor Kangxi's intention, and what Yixiu said was really useful.

He endured it again and again, but because he was young, he still told Yixiu all these things.

Yixiu simply felt too depressed living in the deep palace in her previous life, so now that she is much younger in this life and is no longer in the palace, she pays more attention to things outside the palace.

Moreover, Princess Xuanyan also wanted to see more of these things, so she and Lu Yingfeng would pay extra attention to them.

I didn't expect that Yinzhen would win in this regard.

Of course, this is also related to Yinzhen’s hard work recently.

All in all the result is good.

-----------------

We will offer sacrifices to Mount Tai tomorrow, but we have only decided on the candidate today, so time is very tight.

Although Yinzhen had never done this, he was accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Rites, and Yinzhen had more or less learned something in this area, so it was not too difficult to make up for it temporarily.

But Yinzhen was a little nervous after all.

After all, this is the first time that the emperor values ​​him so much.

Yinzhen basically did not sleep all night, constantly reviewing these things.

Before dawn the next day, the ceremony for offering sacrifices to Mount Tai was already ready.

Emperor Kangxi did not reach the top, but he would follow Yinzhen for a while.

Yinxiang arrived early and congratulated Yinzhen in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

Because Yixiu was a woman, she could not climb Mount Tai with him and could only wait for him at her residence.

However, Yinzhen is a steady person and nothing will go wrong.

Sure enough, not long after the auspicious time, Yinzhen returned.

The success of this incident gave Yinzhen great encouragement, and he had a dreamy and excited expression all day long.

It wasn't until the next day that I felt better.

They stayed in the Dezhou Palace for a few more days until Soetu arrived, and then they left.

Just because of Yinreng's illness, they stayed in Dezhou for a while. This year, floods in Shandong have basically disappeared, so Emperor Kangxi thought about coming again next year.

Because Yinreng was still weak, Emperor Kangxi let him stay in the Dezhou Palace to recuperate while they returned to Beijing first.

Yinzhen has not arrived in the capital yet.

The news that he was ordered by the emperor to offer sacrifices to Mount Tai spread to the capital.

The happiest people at this time were the Ulanara clan.

Fei Yanggu placed both of her daughters on Yinzhen.

One of the daughters is now in a half-useless state. If it weren't for Xinghui's support, Rouze would have been permanently exiled to Ganlu Temple by Yinzhen.

He was asked to have another daughter for marriage, but he didn't have one.

Yinzhen's promising future proved that he had good vision.

Offering sacrifices to Mount Tai is of great significance!

Although it does not represent the final outcome, it at least represents Emperor Kangxi's appreciation of Yinzhen.

Only Yinzhi smashed a lot of things in the Prince of Zhi's Mansion.

Just wait, he will deal with these people one by one.

------------

During the time when Yinzhen and Yixiu left the capital, a new restaurant called Wanghualou opened in the capital. It was located opposite the Heshun Teahouse, but was much more imposing.

The restaurant is three stories high, and the wine they serve is strong and fragrant. Many customers feel dizzy after just two drinks.

However, this restaurant does not sell any soups or drinks that can help people sober up, so customers who have drunk too much have no choice but to go to the Heshun Teahouse across the street to sober up.

As time went by, the business of Heshun Teahouse became better and better.

After seeing the business opportunity, Wang Jiajinghua seized the opportunity to launch several new types of strong tea, and also paired them with heat-clearing foods such as pear slices, tangerines, and mung beans, so that customers who had just finished drinking strong liquor could clear their mouths and relieve the heat.

Jinghua named them all "refreshing" meals. As long as you order the set meal, you will also receive a sachet to remove the smell of alcohol, which won praise from many customers.

It is said that people in the same industry are enemies, but the guests of Wanghualou soon discovered that the guys here would not stop people from going to the opposite side, but would enthusiastically recommend everyone to go there to sober up.

The question is, our shopkeeper said that only cooperation can lead to win-win results. It is better to meet at the top than to undermine each other.

Driven by Wanghualou, the Heshun Teahouse, which was originally just an ordinary teahouse, quickly became well-known.

The reputation spread further and further, and even guests who didn't drink wanted to go to the teahouse to preserve their health.

That day, Jinghua was busy instructing the waiters in the kitchen at the back.

"Boss, the boss of Wanghualou across the street is here. He said he wants to taste the tea you brewed. He is already sitting in the private room."

There was a notification from outside the door, and Jinghua hurried out of the kitchen: "Okay, please ask him to sit down for a while, and I will go and pour the tea myself."

Wang Jiajinghua was going to make some tea, which required grinding the Longjing tea into powder and then adding a little bit at a time. This was not only time-consuming but also a test of the strength of her hands.
