Yinqi was startled suddenly, and stood up in astonishment, but was dizzy for a while because he got up too fast, and he was able to stand still after shaking a few times: "Huang Ama... When did I say that the prince will be deposed?" ?!"

"Silly boy, I am your Ama, how can I not see your thoughts at all?"

Kangxi smiled helplessly, raised his hand and pulled the child to sit next to him, then took his hand and patted him comfortingly twice: "Xiao Wuer, I just ask...don't worry, your body can't worry, If you don't want to say it - I will never force you."

Yinqi frowned and shook his head slightly. After sitting for a while, he felt his beating heart calmed down a little, but he still felt flustered and short of breath when he opened his mouth. He coughed lightly for a while before whispering: "It's a misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstanding?" Kangxi's eyes were slightly cold, and his breathing was already faintly rapid, "What is the misunderstanding?"

"I don't know—my son wasn't in the inner circle of the struggle at that time, and when I realized it, I already..."

Yin Qi shook his head and responded in a low voice, but there was a faint sense of tiredness and resistance in his expression.Kangxi only felt a little tightness in his heart, tentatively took the child's stiff body into his arms, suddenly sighed lightly, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Forget it, I won't ask any more... Originally, I planned to ask you not to tell me I never asked, and I don’t know what happened today, but I couldn’t hold back for a while——Little Wu’er, don’t think too much, isn’t everything different in Zheng Galdan this time? Thinking about it, things have changed a long time ago, and it may not be the same in the future..."

Yinqi's chest was so stuffed up that he couldn't speak, but he closed his eyes and fell silent with a low reply.Kangxi's gaze couldn't help dimming a little, the child in his arms was so thin that there was almost only a handful of bones left in his arms, which made people's heart ache.Patting and coaxing gently according to the old method, after a long silence, he finally said slowly: "Xiao Wuer, you have to separate these things. Regardless of father and son in the court, I don't talk about monarchs and ministers in the palace. I have a sense of proportion." ...You believe in me, and you have to help me, so that they can all be well, and I assure you - the situation where father and son force brothers to kill each other will never appear in my palace..."

"There are no fathers and sons in the court, and there are no monarchs and ministers in the palace..."

Repeating this sentence in a trance, Yinqi suddenly got the strength from where he came from, and he stretched himself up to meet Kangxi's gaze: "Huang Ama, my son understands what you mean, but have you ever thought about—you My sons may not be able to distinguish as clearly as you...Second brother has some misunderstandings with you, if there is a rift between you—”

"I know...but I don't care about that much anymore."

Kangxi sighed, pressed his shoulders and stood up, closed his eyes and interrupted him softly: "This is the crown prince I personally selected and taught myself. I have ambitions, and I want to completely ban those eight iron hats." The king's poor system of electing the heir to the throne, so he ignored the dissuasion of the officials and made the one-year-old Yinfeng the crown prince. He was picked by me, and even if it was really inappropriate, I should be responsible for it myself."

Yinqi naturally understands this truth, but he can't figure out why the prince is so dissatisfied with his Royal Ama, he frowned and said urgently: "But——"

"Of course I know that he has done a good job in his errands over the years, and he has done nothing wrong with supervising the country several times, but what I want is not a prince who can do things but can't be a man. My Qing Dynasty is not a family. Han people, Manchu people, Mongolian people, and Hui people, there are too many estrangements and rifts to repair, and too many vulnerable and fragile ties to maintain.”

Kangxi had already guessed what he wanted to say, so he interrupted him in a low voice, with some undeniable toughness gradually appearing in his eyes: "My monarch of the Qing Dynasty must not be too soft, and if he is too soft, he will be useless. It must be rigid and easy to break. It must not be too slick and exquisite, which will lose the spirit of our great country, and it must not be too self-willed. If his temperament is really self-willed and paranoid to the point that he does not know how to measure and cannot be cultivated, there is no guarantee that one day, the Qing Dynasty will destroyed in his hands..."

Yinqi listened to his words in a daze, only feeling as if he had a faint understanding in his heart, but also inexplicably sad.While he was in a daze, the top of his forehead was suddenly rubbed hard, and he looked up in a trance. Those familiar eyes had faded from the austerity just now, and his eyes were as gentle and concerned as before. He looked deeply at him and spoke slowly. Said: "Xiao Wu'er, all you need to know is enough, don't think too much, don't worry about these things - I just want you to be well, if you don't want to get involved, you can go back to Beijing and wait." Oh, in short, you must remember that no matter what time it is, you must not wrong yourself for anyone... Do you know?"

I don't know if he couldn't bear to see the confused struggle in the child's eyes again, Kangxi finished his sentence, then turned around and quickly pushed the door out, leading Liang Jiugong back to the bedroom without looking back.Yinqi stood quietly in the room for a long while, feeling that he was very tired, and wanted to go back to the bed to rest, but after taking a step, he felt that his steps were weak, and he broke out in a cold sweat unknowingly.

"Master—slow down, it's okay..."

Tan Lang grabbed his shaking body, carefully helped him to sit down on the side of the couch, then gently closed the door, poured a cup of ginseng tea and brought it over: "Don't worry about today's matter, master." I'm so worried, although the emperor treats the elder brothers a bit...but in the emperor's heart, the master is always different. It is also because the emperor puts the master in his heart and never thinks of separating from the master, so he will There is such a passage today..."

"I know, I just feel a little tired."

Yin Qi smiled and shook his head, took the cup of ginseng tea, suppressed the strange smell and took a few sips: "Help me find two clothes that I can wear, I have to pick someone up in the afternoon - I guess the emperor Ma will be 'sick' when she goes back, and we have to get things sorted out quickly... What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I guessed that according to the master's temperament, I was afraid that I would go back to the capital, but I didn't expect the master to be willing to stay."

Tanlang replied hesitantly, and looked at his master's pale face after deliberation, and couldn't help but said slowly: "Master, you really don't have to wrong yourself, if you don't want to get involved in this mess , let’s go back to Beijing—these things have nothing to do with us, there’s no need to worry and feel uncomfortable here..."

"I want to try it once to see how far I can go, so that I can know what I can do in the future."

Yin Qi lowered his eyes slightly and spoke slowly, but suddenly laughed at himself, shook his head and said, "No, I should say that I want to see clearly - am I a basin of cold water that can make this situation calm and stable, or where can I go? It will only make the situation worse... If it is the latter, Tanlang, you are willing to accompany me, let's not care about these things anymore, and go to the south of the Yangtze River to live the leisure life of our Jia family go?"

Looking at the pale and faint smile on that handsome face, Tanlang felt a sudden stagnation in his chest, couldn't help but took a step forward, and gently hugged the boy who seemed to be extremely lonely all of a sudden: " Wherever the master goes, I will follow - if the master finds this kind of life tiresome, we will go back to the south of the Yangtze River, Tanlang will keep you at ease for the rest of his life..."

"Stupid, what do you mean you are raising me—I still have the bank note that my elder brother gave me before I came here."

Yinqi shook his head with a smile, but he never refused this almost offensive hug. Instead, he relaxed and leaned against him, closed his eyes and rested quietly for a while, and finally stood up with his support: "Okay , It's almost slowing down... Let's pack up quickly, maybe the second brother and the others ran a little faster in excitement, so I have to go out to pick them up in this suit."

-

Even though he has done enough psychological construction for himself, the former actor who has always been free and easy this time still feels deeply guilty this time.Bite the bullet and lead the accompanying officials to welcome the prince's guard of honor, until he led the prince and the third elder brother into the East Palace where the emperor Ama stayed, Yinqi still didn't think about how to speak.On the contrary, the prince's behavior was completely different from the rumors. Not only did he inquire about Huang Ama's condition with concern, but he also cared about him all the way, calling the fifth elder brother who forgot to confess to his own Huang Ama because of his complicated mood. Very annoyed - how did he know what kind of disease Huang Ama had!In case the two sides disagree, how can Liang Jiugong make it right?

"Lao San, the road is full of dust and dust, you go wash your face and rest for a while, I have something to say to Lao Wu."

After entering the East Palace, the prince gave a soft order to the third elder brother Yinzhi, and then dragged Yinqi to the other side quickly.Yinqi's body has not been around for a long time, and he stumbled and staggered all the way, feeling his heart beating more and more urgently, there were bursts of black mist in front of his eyes, and the rapid panting made his throat seem to have some bloody smell , walking forward mechanically with only thoughts.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, seeing that his legs were about to give way and fall, he was suddenly pulled into the embrace behind him.Yinqi coughed and raised his head with difficulty, and saw his guard holding the sword firmly against the prince's neck with one hand, his eyes were cold and the sword was half out of its sheath, the light and coldness of the sword made people faintly fearful, neither humble nor overbearing Said: "The master is still seriously injured, if the prince deliberately finds fault, don't blame Su for offending."

...? ?

I never knew that my guard who was worried like an old lady had such a domineering side. Yin Qi tried to calm his breath, and looked at this genuine martial arts master and hero of the rivers and lakes with reverence. With a face that was almost dripping with water, he suddenly realized that his current focus was obviously a bit off, and he quickly raised his hand to hold Tanlang's wrist: "It's okay, second brother, he doesn't know... we have something to say. Let’s talk in the house, if you turn around here and people see it, they might think that something happened to us.”

"You have changed your temper over the years—but it's no wonder, you should beat me up in the past, but this time someone beat me up for you..."

The prince sneered indifferently, pushed the sword away from its sheath, opened the door of a room and walked in.Yin Qi has also slowed down a little, and he walked into the room slowly with Tan Lang's support, and sat down in the chair by the table: "Why... have you taken gunpowder?"

The prince frowned and looked at his still pale complexion, some complex lights flashed in his eyes, but he finally focused them all on his eyes: "Is it Huang Ama's order to ask you to come and meet me? Since you are here , there must be something to tell me—tell me, how is Huang Ama, how sick is she, and there is no need to falter and haw, just tell me."

Yin Qi turned his head away and didn't answer, but his heart was already struggling - he could understand his imperial Ama's thoughts, and even understand the intention of doing so.But even though he was clear in his heart, it was still difficult for him to lie to the prince frankly like this, and it was difficult for him to participate in this unequal game with peace of mind, and help Huang Ama to deceive his own... brother……

"It's really strange—you can't talk?"

The prince waited for a long while but did not hear a response. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at the younger brother for a while, but suddenly walked up to him quickly, put his hands on the armrests of the chair, and looked down at him condescendingly: "You should follow him." I said that Huang Ama was suffering from malaria. She had a high fever for several days and her condition was extremely dangerous, so I urgently called Gu and the third elder brother to come to accompany her - usually speaking faster than anyone else when it should be said or not, telling lies It's always been the same as telling the truth, why did you make a fool of yourself this time?"

"I didn't ask Huang Ama what disease he had!"

Yin Qi pushed him angrily, but he no longer suppressed his pent-up anger, and yelled back confidently: "You know all about it and ask me, are you full? I don't want to get involved in this matter, because I'm afraid that your temper will come up, and the enemy is still alive. The troubles at home are out of control—you think I'm willing to suffer between you and Huang Ama Such idleness!"

The prince stared at him for a long time, his expression finally calmed down, and the gloomy hostility in his eyes gradually dissipated. He looked at him suspiciously and said, "Is there really no place for you here? When I first saw this sinister idea, I thought it must be from you..."

"My son just got off the couch before. You think you are more popular, and everyone will be tricked and shady once?"

Yin Qi glanced at him impatiently, pursed his lips and turned his head away, unwilling to say anything more.After lingering for a while, he suddenly thought about something wrong, turned his head and stared at him, couldn't help but frowned and said: "What did you just say - what kind of dirty idea, what do you know?"

"I knew everything a long time ago. I knew that Huang Ama was fine and nothing happened, but you have been making people worry about being half-dead... What did you promise before you left? Say you will be fine Yes, but if you turn your head and forget it, why didn't the stone really hit you to death!"

The prince replied in a cold voice, but still reluctantly looked around him carefully, seeing the empty clothes on his younger brother, his eyes couldn't help but frown Slightly slowing down, he said, "Are you really hurt so badly? I thought you were just bluffing..."

"What on earth do you think I'm doing? Why do you think I'm a sinister and cunning villain in your eyes?"

Yinqi curled his lips, took off his strength and leaned back heavily in the chair: "If I wasn't seriously injured, I would have beaten you myself by now—don't think that it's all over today, wait I'll take care of my body later, and I must beat you hard to vent my anger, I'll chase you and beat you wherever you go, absolutely no ambiguity."

"Okay, if what happened here is over, I'm still entitled to beat you up, as many times as you want, and I'll make an unreasonable apology today."

The prince responded casually, pulled away the chair and sat down by himself, curled his lips and replied disapprovingly.Yinqi's expression was slightly concentrating, and he stood up and looked at his lazy expression, suddenly an ominous premonition arose in his heart: "What do you want to do? You already know that Huang Ama is fine, so you should know that this is— —”

"Of course I know it's a trap, or I dug it up and waited for me to drill it."

The prince suddenly interrupted him, with a careless smile on his lips, lowered his eyes slightly and fiddled with the folding fan in his hand: "But so what? Do you know that sometimes people's hearts can't stand temptation?" Yes. Originally it was a good heart, but if you don’t believe it, you want to test it out. After tossing and tossing, no matter how hot your blood is, it will be frozen into ice balls.”

"Huang Amata——he didn't mean to embarrass you, he just..."

Yinqi responded with difficulty, and suddenly found that the explanation seemed to be difficult to utter no matter what he did—it was impossible for him to tell the prince who was inexplicably lying in front of him, and tell him that Huang Ama was testing you because he didn't know In the future, you will be crippled because of something, so now I am looking for faults to test what you can do wrong...

He still can't figure out where he missed the trap, whether it was too obvious on weekdays, or he said something in a daze when he was seriously injured and on the verge of death.But no matter what, [-]% of the crown prince's unreasonable disaster was caused by him. As long as there is still a chance of easing up, he doesn't want to see the relationship between the two people change from the original cold war to a hot one, and finally make trouble Can't stop.

"Huang Ama."

However, the prince repeated the word as if it was interesting, shook his head with a sneer, and said, "Ama Huang, Ama Huang, he is our emperor, your Ama - just because of this, I was almost It’s enough to feel that I hate you. But it’s like you can’t end with three disasters and five hardships. Xing will kill his own life at any time. It’s a waste of time to deal with you. In case I fight with you When you are fighting and you disappear in a jerk, why do you think I am doing this?"

Yinqi was at a loss for words for a moment, and glared at him sullenly: "I'm sorry! I'm not good enough, I can't keep fighting with you forever..."

"I really think you can fight with me all the time, but you're so cowardly that you can't even lie to help Huang Ama, and it feels like you're losing value in fighting with you."

The prince put his hands behind his back and turned around. After a long silence, he sighed again, lowered his head and said slowly: "I will tell Huang Ama, you told me that he was seriously ill, and told me to go and accompany him... Don't get involved, this is not something you should meddle in, don't end up making a mess of water. Take care of your wounds in the house, I'm just like this, for I’m really worried that I can’t make it.”
