so

The floor tiles of the Qianqing Palace were paved with bluestone slabs, Yinhu only knelt for a while and then felt a slight chill seep up on his knees.The surrounding area is very quiet, only the sound of the strong wind blowing in Beijing in autumn.Yinhu fought for a year, and the palace was renovated in summer. At this time, a few inches of weeds grew on the roof of the palace, and it was inevitable that there was a bit of desolation in the grandeur.

Yinzhen returned to the palace early from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and stood far enough to take a look at the back of Yinhu who was kneeling outside Qianqing Palace.Yinhu looked extraordinarily thin in the wind.After one year of fighting and another serious illness, Yinzhen watched from afar, the back figure was only a small spot in sight due to the distance, but it seemed to fill Yinzhen's heart.Yinzhen took a deep breath, turned around and walked in the direction of Chengqian Palace, never looking back at Yinhu.

Yuqing Palace and Qianqing Palace are very close, and there is a long line behind Kangxi and the Crown Prince, which is quite spectacular in this short distance.Yinhu heard a series of footsteps behind her, but she finally breathed a sigh of relief, even if she was kneeling, it would be nice to have someone talking beside her.

Kangxi strode past Yinhu without stopping for a moment, but Yinhu kowtowed respectfully and said: "Your servant Yinhu respectfully invites the emperor's peace."

When Yinrong passed by Yinhu, he stretched out his hand to support him, and showed a somewhat apologetic smile: "Are we troubled brothers?"

Yinhu knelt down for a while, and it wasn't too difficult to get up. She borrowed a little strength, and heard what the prince said, she frowned and made a silent gesture.Yinfeng understood, nodded, and pursed his lips to express that he would keep silent.Yinhu whispered "Thank you, Prince", but opened his hand at an angle that no one else could see, and there were two characters written on it - brother and foot.In just a split second, Yinhu clenched his fists, rubbing his fingers in his palm, and the handwriting was instantly blurred.

Yinfeng only gave a slight "hmm" when he saw it.He knew that Yinhu told him not to tell the reason for concealing the poisoning, but he didn't understand what the word "sibling" meant.But seeing the blurred handwriting that Yinhu wrote in a hurry, Yinrong felt quite at ease.It seems that all the fears and fears before have disappeared.Yinrong has a kind of blind trust in Yinhu's ability, and he doesn't even know where this trust comes from.For example, at this time, Yinfeng didn't even know how Yinhu arranged it, so he firmly believed that he would find a reason that Kangxi understood. Can survive.

The two exchanged countless messages back and forth, but Kangxi did not notice.Yinhu entered the Qianqing Palace, and before Kangxi could scold him, he knelt down and pleaded guilty.The words of pleading for sin were set in one set, without any intention of letting go, the words were sincere, heartbroken, almost saying that he was unfaithful and unfilial, as if he deserved death, and even took the crown prince's guilt, almost Weeping sadly, he begged Kangxi to punish him and not to blame the prince.

Kangxi knew that it was impossible for Yinhu to bear all the crimes of the prince.Before Yinhu knew about it, Yinrong had kept it a secret for several months, but Yinhu had just learned that it was justifiable not to report it to Kangxi.Kangxi prepared a basket of speeches to scold Yinhu, but he didn't want to be scolded by Yinhu himself, and began to defend Yinhu unconsciously in his heart.His son was the only one who could scold him, even if Yinhu scolded him himself, it made Kangxi feel uncomfortable.

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense." The anger in Kangxi's heart was extinguished, but he still pretended to be full of anger. "What is your intention to hide this moment?"

Yinhu pretended to be stunned for a moment, glanced at the crown prince, quickly lowered his head and knelt down on the ground, and said: "The cause of this incident was originally the third-class guard Rongbao's scheming words, and the imperial physician did not confirm that the crown prince's aggravation was caused by poisoning." To. So far, we haven't found out what kind of drug it is or who poisoned it. I originally wanted to investigate the ins and outs of the matter clearly, make sure that the matter is true, and then report it to Khan Ama. Rongbao is my haha ​​bead. If it is found out This matter is untrue, and it is inevitable that he will be guilty of deceiving the public with false rumors. The prince is also a jealous minister in doing so, please Khan Ama please calm down."

"Unexpectedly, the prince has such a benevolent heart," Kangxi said in a flat tone, without any intention of commending him, obviously not believing it.Yinfeng sweated secretly in his heart, letting him deceive the emperor's father for a slave, thanks to Yinhu's idea.Even for Rongbao, it is absolutely impossible.Although he vaguely guessed that this was not Yinhu's final trick, he was unavoidably a little uneasy.

Yinhu explained with a calm expression: "Khan Amaren's heart has been spared by the common people, and the prince's benevolence is also due."

Kangxi snorted coldly, but turned to ask the prince: "Is what Yinhu said true?"

Yinfeng pursed his lips and knelt down silently.Neither agreeing nor objecting, he looked like he had something to say but couldn't say it, but Yinhu's confession was fully explained.

Kangxi naturally knew that this Rongbao was a cover that Yinhu found.Yinfeng didn't speak, but there were other reasons, and he wasn't like Yinhu who dared to bully the king face to face.After gaining insight into everything, Kangxi didn't care about such a bold move by Yinhu, but firmly believed that Yinhu and Yinhu concealed this huge matter, which was indeed a last resort.

Instead of being angry, Kangxi smiled, and said, "Baby, your second elder brother didn't help you, let me see how you made things right this time."

But Yinhu said: "I have already pleaded guilty." The implication is that I don't want to defend myself.

Kangxi lost the steps, feeling unhappy, and was about to dismiss Yinhu's errand and punish him to study behind closed doors, but Liang Jiugong came in at this moment, whispered something in Kangxi's ear, and then hurriedly left.Kangxi frowned, but told the two of the news: "There was a eunuch named Yan Jin who committed suicide just now."

Yinfeng instantly understood the meaning of the word "hand and foot" written by Yinhu.All the clues are instantly connected together.Yinhu's move is extremely clever.If Yinreng had been investigated at the beginning and suspected that this matter had something to do with other brothers, because of the brotherhood, he would try his best to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor and conceal it for his brothers.Only for this reason can Kangxi forgive Yinfeng's concealment and not leave a grudge in his heart.

Yan Jin is the fourth child, Yinfeng already knew it.It was Yinhu's idea to keep him.At this time, he has no doubt that Yan Jin's suicide must be Yinhu's design, and it is a kind of reciprocation to involve the fourth child at this time.After all, Yinreng first suspected that the incident was done by the imperial concubine, and it was also the imperial concubine who reported this to Kangxi, which undoubtedly declared war with him.The fourth child has a mother-child friendship with the imperial concubine, and this time the incident was revealed, so it may not be that the fourth child has nothing to do with it.

Yinfeng immediately showed a little bit of surprise, and then with some pity and regret in his eyes, he and Yinhu looked at each other, but did not speak.

Although the exchange of eyes was short, it fell into Kangxi's eyes.

"What's wrong with this eunuch?" Kangxi asked.

"Huihan Ama, Yan Jin has been in the palace for more than two years. At first, he worked as an errand in Changchun Garden Taipuxuan, and later he was transferred to Yuqing Palace to serve. The errands have always been shrewd and cautious, and they have never made big mistakes." Yinfeng knew very well. The trick of eye drops, the deeper it is hidden, the more effective it will be.Kangxi was a wise monarch, and it was because of this wiseness that it became even more difficult to show that the eunuch was the fourth child, and he couldn't even have a clue.Only in this way, Kangxi will focus all his attention on the eunuch who committed suicide.Yinfeng believes that with Kangxi's wisdom, he can find the vague ambiguity between him and the fourth child no matter what.

"You know very well that this is not what I want to hear." Kangxi snorted displeasedly, turned to Yinhu, and asked, "Is your second elder brother right, old man?" The hidden worry was caught off guard, and he said: "I see that Yinfeng has not ascended the throne yet, so you can't wait to be loyal to him!"

Yinhu's heart skipped a beat.Yinhu would not be able to bear such harsh words in any case.Yinhu bit her lip, and asked in a trembling voice: "Ama Khan's words, do you want your son's life?"

Kangxi didn't speak, but kept a cold face.Although it was angry words, but since he said it out loud, Kangxi also wanted to see how long Yinhu could hold on, and how long Yinrong could hold his tongue.

However, Yinfeng kowtowed hard, and when his forehead hit the carpet, there were two "dongdong" sounds.Speaking of this, Yinfeng didn't care about anything else, just begged: "Khan Ama! Yinhu was confused for a while, he didn't have such thoughts anyway. I beg Ama, Ama, Yinhu is right. Khan Ama's heart to Daqing can be learned from the world, he has a soft temperament on the outside, but he is strong on the inside, if you are so silent, you can humiliate him..."

Yinhu smiled miserably, with tears in his eyes, but never fell: "Second brother, you don't need to ask. Khan Ama is suspicious of Yinhu, so Yinhu can only show his ambition by death." Yinhu bit her lip , respectfully kowtowed three times to Kangxi, and then said: "Ama Khan, my son is not filial, so he can no longer serve Ama Khan. Ama Khan asked about Moxi's decision, and his son has already written a report and put it in the elder brother's In the study. It's a pity..."

Before Yinhu finished speaking, Kangxi couldn't bear it, but the doubts in his heart deepened.Yinhu is not willing to say who is worthy of Yinhu's life, who is this Yan Jin and what is his background, there is no doubt that Yinrong and Yinhu know it well. "Did I tell you to let you die?" Kangxi's tone was cold, but he had obviously changed his mind. Yinfeng thanked him again and again, but Yinhu was not at all happy.

Soon, Kangxi said: "If you tell who Yan Jin is, and why the prince concealed this matter, I will trust you."

Yinhu kowtowed and said: "Yinhu didn't tell, it was because of Khan Ama. I beg Khan Ama, don't ask any more. Although Yan Jin committed suicide, he may not be the one who poisoned..." This is the most brilliant Framed, the more he said so, the deeper the doubts this person planted in Kangxi's heart. Even if there was no proof of death, Kangxi would think that he was indeed committing suicide in fear of crime at this time. At that time, the fourth child may only be unable to explain clearly.

"What about Yinfeng? You didn't say anything? You just watched your close brother die?"

Yinfeng hesitated to speak, looked at Yinhu, hesitated again and again, and just said: "Son..." But Yinhu shook his head, stopped talking again, and begged: "Son, I beg Khan Ama, Yinhu You can’t die, you don’t think it’s because he is your son, but also because he has made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. Yinhu is only 16 years old, young and promising, you..."

"Okay, okay! Don't tell me, I will send someone to investigate. I want to see who it is, and it is worth my eighth elder brother willing to protect with his life."

Yinhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.This time, he won the bet again.In this way, even if the fourth child does not die, he will probably lose his skin.
