Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

The next morning, the sun shone through the window screen and gently sprinkled on the bed. Yinzhen was the first to wake up from his sleep. He turned his head slightly and saw his wife Yiya and son Honghui sleeping soundly. A sense of peace and happiness surged in his heart.

At this moment, Honghui opened his eyes drowsily. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, and when he saw Yinzhen, he immediately called out softly: "Father!" Although the voice was small, it was particularly clear in the silence of the early morning.

Yinzhen smiled slightly, stretched out his finger and made a "hush" gesture, and said softly: "Speak softly, don't wake up your mother." His eyes were full of love and advice.

Honghui nodded obediently and whispered, "Ama, where are you going?"

Yinzhen reached out his hand, gently stroked Honghui's head, and said, "Father is going to see the emperor, you stay at home and take good care of mother, understand?"

Honghui nodded happily, saying that he would take good care of Yiya. He lay back down beside Yiya again, holding her hand tightly, as if protecting his mother in his own way.

Yinzhen was delighted to see this. He got up quietly and washed and changed his clothes with the help of Su Peisheng.

After everything was ready, he turned around, looked at Yi Ya and Hong Hui, then walked out of the room lightly.

Outside Kangxi's study, Yinzhen straightened his robe, took a deep breath, and then pushed the door open.

In the study, Kangxi was already sitting at the desk, waiting for his arrival. After Yinzhen saluted Kangxi, he began today's meeting.

In the early morning, the sun shone through the window of the study, shining on the majestic and calm face of Emperor Kangxi. Last night, Yinzhen and others brought back a group of suspects, but because it was late at night, many details were not discussed in detail.

At this moment, Yinzhen, the third prince and others gathered together. Kangxi sat in front of the desk, holding a brush tightly in his hand, and his eyes swept among everyone.

Kangxi put down his brush, looked at Yinzhen, and said in a low and powerful voice: "Yinzhen, how did the interrogation of the person you brought back last night go?"

Yinzhen stepped forward and answered respectfully, "Father, I have interrogated them separately. Except for the leader who remained stubborn, the others have confessed. However, the clues they provided were not very important and failed to directly point to the mastermind behind the scenes."

Kangxi nodded, his tone revealing his admiration for Yinzhen: "To interrogate a prisoner, you need both patience and wisdom. You did a good job. Keep up the good work and make sure to defeat the leader."

Yinzhen responded and stepped aside. Kangxi looked at the third prince again, frowning slightly: "Third prince, how is your investigation of the White Lotus Sect in Nanjing going?"

The Third Prince stepped forward and said solemnly, "Father, after many days of undercover investigation, I found that there is indeed a White Lotus Sect operating in Nanjing. They have killed many court officials in Nanjing under the slogan of overthrowing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. These officials are all pillars of the court, and their deaths are a great loss to the court."

After hearing this, Kangxi's face darkened and he angrily slammed the desk: "These traitors! How dare they be so rampant! How can our Qing Dynasty tolerate their absurd behavior!"

The Third Prince continued, "Father, I have discovered that in addition to Nanjing, there are also White Lotus Sects in other places in Jiangnan. They seem to be colluding in secret with ill intentions. I am worried that if we don't eradicate them in time, they may pose a serious threat to our Qing Dynasty."

After hearing this, Kangxi's eyes flashed with determination. He stood up and said in a deep voice: "Third brother, you must immediately mobilize people to go to all parts of Jiangnan to thoroughly investigate the White Lotus Sect. No matter where they hide, they must be caught in one fell swoop, and no hidden dangers must be left behind!"

The Third Prince took the order and left. The study returned to peace. Kangxi stood in front of the window, looking at the dark night outside, his heart filled with determination and resolution.

He knew that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and for the long-term stability of the Qing Dynasty, he must eradicate these traitors at all costs.
