so

Kangxi looked at a secret report in front of him, his brows were tightly frowned, and he could no longer relax them.Many things, if you don’t check it, it’s fine. Once you have a reason, check it carefully, and what you find is really shocking.Although Yan Jin died, there is no proof of his death, but when Yan Jin entered the palace, there are many traces that were obviously covered up. His name and place of origin are not even true. Continue on.Following all kinds of clues and tracing, Kangxi unexpectedly discovered that in the palace, someone was manipulating a large intelligence network. There are few places where concubines are out of his reach.

There are people from Kangxi everywhere in this palace, but under Kangxi's nose, there are talents who can pull such a big net.Kangxi's first reaction was actually Lao Ba.It is true that Yinhu has a criminal record, he planted a secret line around the prince, and it came in handy, but most of the old eight's people were concentrated in Yuqing Palace.Moreover, Yinreng knew very well about the old eighth people, this became the matter of the two brothers, and Kangxi was happy for them to solve it by themselves.Besides, if it was really the old eight, Yinfeng's reaction would definitely not be like that.Kangxi clearly saw that in the end Yinfeng really couldn't bear the pressure and wanted to say something, but Yinhu shook his head.If Lao Ba hides such a big net in addition to the dark thread nails that he knows on the bright side, and even has something to do with the assassination of the prince, Yinfeng still decides to protect Lao Ba, and it will never be possible in the end Confessing half a word, like this, can only push Lao Ba to a place of eternal doom.

This man is older than Ba ​​Nian, and he has been operating in this palace for six or seven years.Lao Ba was only ten years old at that time, he could read decently, and he was not top-notch in riding and shooting. He hung behind the prince every day, leading a few bullies in the palace to play around.At that time, Lao Ba was not prominent and inconspicuous, but Qiang An was diligent and sweet-mouthed, but he didn't see anything special about him.Kangxi read the secret report in his hand again, thought carefully, and shook his head—it wasn't Lao Ba.

This person hides very deeply. Although the wiring is a little immature, the hiding method is extremely clever.There is very little evidence that can definitively point to him.Kangxi thought about arresting people directly for interrogation, but he was afraid of scaring the snake.At that time, Kangxi sent people to deliver the decree to the place where the old people of Yuqing Palace were detained, but the emperor's envoys only intervened. That Yan Jin almost killed himself by chewing his tongue when he went back. He was so determined and ruthless that even if he was discovered immediately, he couldn't be saved. live.Such a decision made Kangxi feel scared.Without finding out who this person was, Kangxi felt that he probably couldn't eat and couldn't sleep at night.

Fourth?

Kangxi was taken aback by his sudden thought, and Kangxi never wanted to suspect his son unless it was a last resort.However, the more you think about it, the closer you feel to the truth of the matter.It is absolutely impossible for the two princes, Yinrong and Yinhu, to help conceal it, just a slave.Most likely the brothers.The prince grew up in the Forbidden City, and the closest people are probably brothers.The fourth child has a good relationship with the prince, and he saved the eighth life, so it is reasonable that the eighth child is willing to risk his life to protect him once.With an object of suspicion, Kangxi immediately found someone to investigate Yinzhen, and soon the result came out. Many suspicious points were compared with the previous secret report. Although there was no conclusive evidence, Yan Jin had [-]% success as the fourth child. people.But, how did Lao Ba know?

Kangxi passed on Yinhu.

Yinhu looked not in good spirits, as if he hadn't fallen asleep for several nights. Although his clothes were decent, there was an unspeakable sense of depression.It's also boring when I greet you.Kangxi thought of Yinhu's appearance before, and suddenly found that Yinhu's smile almost always disappeared, and the kind of caring and warm demeanor disappeared. gas.

Kangxi gave him a seat and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yinhu only leaned against the edge of the stool, his back was very straight, and he looked nervous.Pursing his lips, he lowered his head and answered, "The minister thinks about his sins, and feels terrified in his heart."

Yinhu didn't say much, but Kangxi understood.The moment of anger that day, the harsh words must have been remembered by this multi-hearted child.It's really like what Yinfeng said, if you don't talk about it, I'm afraid that even if Yinhu recovers, he will always think about it in his heart.Yinhu was originally a person who dared to think and do, boldly conceived and carefully implemented. Originally, he just wanted him to sharpen his temper and be able to withstand setbacks, but he didn't want him to break his wings because of it.

"I was just trying to force you that day, but now I also understand that there are reasons why you don't want to say it." Kangxi had a rare and pleasant face.

Yinhu knew that what Kangxi said was not the truth.In that case, if you didn't have doubts in your heart, how could you even think about it without blurting it out?But Yinhu didn't say anything at this time, and the play was almost done, so he got up and knelt down.

But Kangxi waved his hand and said, "Stop kneeling, sit down quickly. I see you open and close when you are doing things outside, but you are always worried when you are in front of me. You were not like this when you were young."

Yinhu showed a shy smile, and replied: "Khan Amarong is getting stronger and stronger, my son has no choice but to do so."

Kangxi was delighted by the compliment, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This is a bit like the old days."

After exchanging pleasantries, it was time to get down to business. Kangxi's complexion quickly sank, and he did not guard against Yinhu. He handed the first secret report about the intelligence network to Yinhu, and said, "Look, what do you think?"

Yinhu took it with both hands respectfully, and unfolded it carefully. After seeing it, he couldn't help being extremely astonished.This is Yinzhen's intelligence network.Except for Yinzhen, Yinhu is probably the person in the entire palace who knows the situation written in this secret report best.Here is Yinzhen's family background. Although it is not complete, it lists almost all of Yinzhen's pawns lying on the surface.

Yinhu couldn't help but cry out inwardly.Originally, he just wanted to frame the matter of poisoning the prince on the fourth child. Even if there is no evidence, there is a grudge in Kangxi's heart, which is enough for the fourth child to drink a pot.Unexpectedly, Kangxi not only found out the origin of Yan Jin, but also implicated him in almost finding out the fourth person.Yinhu is not fully aware of the list in this secret report, almost every key point has two lines, one bright and one dark, but Yinhu knows well that even if these nails are pulled out by Kangxi, he still has the last chance layer, the real hole card.This is not in the secret report. Although Yinhu knew of their existence, but never saw them, they were the cornerstone of the fourth child.

Yinhu looked at it very seriously, and almost memorized every name. Kangxi reviewed the paper for a while, thinking that Yinhu had read it almost, and then asked: "Why? Up to now, you still don't know what to do? Is he hiding it?" Kangxi was making a cliché, but he couldn't confirm it, but he used this excerpt to quote Yinhu's words.

Yinhu frowned, not sure why Kangxi didn't speak clearly, so he just said in a low voice: "Yinhu is guilty." He said he was guilty, but he didn't kneel down, he still sat on the stool, closed the secret report and put it away on the knee.

"The fourth brother is indeed a scheming man." Kangxi sighed, and said again: "I think he has done a good job. Don't hide it, it will make you protect him even if you die. It’s the fourth child who saved you.”

Yinhu shook his head: "Brothers are fates that have been cultivated in several generations. No matter who it is, Yinhu is like this. Yinhu believes that the prince is also the same."

"What if I find out the evidence that the fourth brother sent people to murder the prince? You and Yinfeng have been friends since childhood, so you don't want to avenge him?"

"It's not the fourth brother." Yinhu replied very positively, "The reason why I don't want to tell Khan Ama is just because I am afraid that you will doubt the fourth brother. But I believe that the fourth brother did not do this matter." Zhen retorted, but he didn't really show any compassion.It's that he wants to keep performing the play of defending Yinzhen. The more realistic the performance, the less Yinzhen's retreat will be.At least, it is difficult for Yinzhen to turn this matter around and blame Yinhu.If Yinzhen wants to get rid of the crime, he must either find out the truth, or set about framing the crime to draw out the disaster.

"Yan Jin committed suicide in fear of crime." Kangxi said.Although he also felt that something was wrong, he wanted to hear Yinhu's opinion.

"He may be afraid that the fourth brother's other secrets will be exposed, such as the secret report in your hand. After all, he was only facing Ke Dai at first, but now it is Khan Ama's people. Yan Jin is young, and there is a secret hidden in his heart. It’s been too long, and there are fears when things happen.”

"It's far-fetched."

Yinhu raised his head slightly, pretended to ponder for a while, and then said: "Just because the fourth brother committed suicide with a nail buried in Yuqing Palace, it is a bit far-fetched to conclude that the fourth brother is related to the murder of the second brother."

Kangxi was not moved by the persuasion, and he still did not dispel his doubts about the fourth child, and asked, "Then who do you think did this?"

"I don't know. Without conclusive evidence, no one wants to doubt." Yinhu's answer was very cautious.

"The secret report in your hand, you also understand the situation above, it is the eyes and ears secretly cultivated by the fourth child in the past few years. It is obvious that such a conspiracy is revealed." Kangxi said, and patted the table hard.

Yinhu took a long breath, and then exhaled slowly. After a moment of silence, he returned: "Khan Ama, the people on this list may not be the fourth brother's people."

"How do you know that Yan Jin belongs to the fourth child?"

"I don't know, it's just a guess."

"Why don't you guess someone else, but guess it's the fourth child?"

Yinhu briefly described the situation that night two years ago. It is not appropriate to lie at this time. After all, Yinzhen might also mention this matter.In front of Kangxi, the more frank you are, the easier it is to gain trust.

Kangxi suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Why do you know that Yan Jin is the fourth child, but still keep him in Yuqing Palace? As far as I know, Yuqing Palace was cleaned up by you. "

Yinhu was at a loss for words for a while.It is true that Yan Jin was kept at that time for this critical moment, but how could such a reason be repaid to Kangxi?How should I respond to these words?If one is not careful, all previous efforts may be wasted.

Yinhu could only adhere to the principle of honesty, and replied: "I think, since I know that Yan Jin belongs to the fourth brother, maybe through him, I can let the fourth brother know something that the prince wants to let the fourth brother know."

Kangxi froze for a moment, probably did not expect Yinhu to speak so clearly, but soon laughed, since the words were clear, there was nothing to doubt, Kangxi even said: "Probably I have also received a lot of things you want from me. I know the news." After finishing speaking, he added: "Ghost spirit."

Yinhu heard Kangxi's rare jokes, but felt a little uneasy in his heart.It has been ten days since Yan Jin committed suicide, but the fourth child has not taken any action.Now that most of the news network has been pulled out by Kangxi, with such a heavy loss, it is impossible for the fourth child to sit still.The calm before the storm made Yinhu feel a chill in his heart.

It's time for the fourth child to make a move.
