Qing Dynasty Chronicle

When Sheng Mingzhen woke up, he was the only one left on the bed. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Xiao Xizi bowed his waist and asked himself, "Master is awake? Do you want to sleep for a while?"

Sheng Mingzhen closed his eyes and woke up, then lightly shook his head, "I'm not going to sleep anymore." He held his hands and wanted to get up.

Xiao Xizi hastily stepped forward to help Sheng Mingzhen sit up, "Master, is this going to get up?"

"Ah." Sheng Mingzhen nodded, "I'm dizzy from sleeping."

Xiao Xizi's expression was a bit perplexed, "Brother Thirteen told the slaves to take care of the master to stay in bed and have a good rest before leaving."

"It's okay." Sheng Mingzhen waved his hand, "It's uncomfortable to lie down, but it feels better to get up and walk."

Xiao Xizi saw that Sheng Mingzhen's attitude was firm and his face was still relatively rosy, so he didn't insist. He just waited for Sheng Mingzhen to wash up and then served him breakfast. Finally, he stared at Sheng Mingzhen with a wrinkled face and drank a large bowl of traditional Chinese medicine. Take him out for a walk.

Nested in the tent for a day and a night, Sheng Mingzhen took a breath of fresh air outside, and looked at the blue sky and green grass, and his spirits improved, and the people who came and went outside saw Fourteen Ah coming out of the tent. Brothers were stunned for a moment, and then those who were closer came up to say hello, Sheng Mingzhen looked at the bald foreheads and no one remembered, so he only answered vaguely.

"Tell me about the past." Sheng Mingzhen asked Xiao Xizi to help him go for a walk in a place with few people.

Yesterday when the imperial physician gave the diagnosis, Xiao Xizi was also beside her. Hearing what Sheng Mingzhen said, she just bent over and said something important to Sheng Mingzhen.

Sheng Mingzhen knew from Xiaoxizi's whispered narration that this was May of the 42nd year of Kangxi, when Kangxi led a group of sons and princes and ministers to tour outside the Great Wall.

42 years... Sheng Mingzhen recited it silently in his heart, but he didn't listen to Xiaoxizi's words anymore, and his thoughts went away.According to the historical materials of the Qing Dynasty that Sheng Mingzhen read, Kangxi had already detained Suo'etu before this tour outside the Great Wall, and the Jiulong seizure of the throne also slowly kicked off. Thinking about the owner of this body, I am afraid that at this time it is already Got together with his starlings.Thinking that Yinti had chosen such a master who had the last limit to follow, Sheng Mingzhen couldn't help but have a headache. It is still unknown whether he can go back now. If he can go back, what choice Yinti makes is his own business, but if he returns If he didn't go, Sheng Mingzhen couldn't accept that he would be driven to guard the imperial tomb by his own brother in the future.Between whether you don’t want to or not, the most important decisive factor is whether you can go back, but Sheng Mingzhen thinks about the things about time travel that he saw in modern times, and he doesn’t seem to see anyone who has successfully time travel back, oh , also, Xiaowanzi, it's a pity that people can connect seven stars, and there is also a fairy pillow, where can I find a library and stumble again?Maybe, fall off the horse again?Thinking of Sheng Mingzhen in this way, his eyes were fixed on the horse not far away that was grazing with its hooves down...

Here, Xiao Xizi is educating her master, but she finds that Sheng Mingzhen's gaze has shifted to another place, and there is still a light of eagerness in his eyes. Xiao Xizi almost wanted to cover Sheng Mingzhen's eyes and drag him back to the tent.

But no, he is the master and he is the slave, he was startled and afraid in his heart, but he had to calmly persuade him, "Master, you are not in good health now, so you can't ride a horse..."

Interrupted by Xiao Xizi, Sheng Mingzhen looked away, shook his head and said, "I'll just take a look."

Just now, Sheng Mingzhen thought about the plan of falling from the horse, and it was rejected in the next second, because this matter is not guaranteed. If it is successful, it is okay to say, if it is directly met with the Buddha, it will be settled, but if it is not done It's so stupid and disabled that I haven't been able to go back. That's the real sense that life is worse than death.

Xiao Xizi didn't know the detours Sheng Mingzhen was thinking in his mind, all he saw was Elder Fourteen who seemed to be really just looking at him, and now he diverted his attention again, lost in thought.No matter what Elder Fourteen was thinking, as long as he didn't think about riding a horse, Xiao Xizi would be thankful, so he continued to popularize Sheng Mingzhen.

If he can't go back, then the most correct way is undoubtedly to break away from the Baye Party and join his own brother's subordinates. However, this boss seems to be very, very wrong with his own brother?Thinking of this, Sheng Mingzhen frowned again, considering his own life and future, defecting to Emperor Yongzheng was the most correct choice, but how to ease the relationship with this cold-faced emperor, how not to cause this shrewd work The mad emperor suspiciously eased the relationship with him, but now it has become the most important issue for Sheng Mingzhen to consider, and how to slowly break away from the Baye Party is also an unavoidable issue...

"Brother Fourteen is here, Lord Long Live is looking for you." A slightly soft voice brought Sheng Mingzhen back to his senses, and he turned his head to look at the smiling man behind him who was clearly dressed differently from Xiao Xizi and looked at himself. eunuch.

At this moment, Xiao Xizi reminded in a low voice, "Master, this is Eunuch Liang Jiugong who is beside Long Live Lord."

Hearing Xiaoxizi's introduction, Sheng Mingzhen was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face, "Eunuch Liang, do you know why Han Ama is looking for Yinti?"

"This slave doesn't know." Liang Jiugong smiled and bent over, "It's just that the emperor heard the guards report that Elder Fourteen has gotten up to go for a walk outside, so I sent this servant to look for Elder Fourteen."

Facing the slippery Liang Jiugong, Sheng Mingzhen didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded with a smile, "Understood, Yinti is going to pay homage to Ama Khan right now, and Eunuch Liang is here to help."

Liang Jiugong still looked like the Maitreya Buddha, and while leading Sheng Mingzhen to the Kangxi tent, he said, "Brother Fourteen, you are welcome. It is the duty of a slave to do things for the Long Live God."

After all, Sheng Mingzhen was not the original [-]th elder brother, so he adhered to the principle of saying less and making less mistakes, and not saying that he was good. On the way to Kangxi's camp, he only smiled and kept silent, and didn't say much.

As far as Liang Jiugong is concerned, although Kangxi ordered that the fourteenth elder brother lose his memory, he is not allowed to leak it, but as Kangxi's personal eunuch, he naturally knows about it, so for this favored young elder brother who is high-spirited and vigorous. The silence is only interpreted for a moment of confusion.

Kangxi's tent was not too far from the place where Sheng Mingzhen was walking. Just when Sheng Mingzhen was worrying about how to face Kangxi, Yinxiang walked over from a distance, "Where is Fourteenth Brother going?"

Hearing Yinxiang's familiar voice, Sheng Mingzhen felt relieved, raised his face and showed a bright smile, "Brother Thirteen."

It's early summer now, the sun is shining brightly and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. Sheng Mingzhen's completely trusting smile looks even brighter in Yinxiang's eyes under the sun, and he involuntarily raised his lips, "Is your health better?"

"Yeah." This time without Xiaoxizi's help, Sheng Mingzhen walked to Yinxiang's side automatically and consciously, "I drank the medicine in the morning, where are you going?"

"I just finished the errand assigned by Khan Ama, and now I'm going to Khan Ama's place." Yinxiang replied, and then asked, "What about you?"

"I'm also going to Khan Ama's place." Sheng Mingzhen pointed to Liang Jiugong who was beside him with a smile, "Just now, Eunuch Liang came over and said Khan Ama passed me on."

Yinxiang looked at Liang Jiugong in the direction of Sheng Mingzhen's finger, and Liang Jiugong also saluted Yinxiang with a smile on his face, "Brother Thirteen is auspicious."

Yinxiang nodded and raised his hand, "Eunuch Liang, don't be too polite." After finishing speaking, he patted Sheng Mingzhen on the shoulder and motioned him to follow him, "When I went to pay my respects to Ama Khan in the morning, he still asked you, Xu It was because I heard you taking a walk outside that I sent Eunuch Liang to tell you to go over and have a look at your health."

"En." Sheng Mingzhen responded in a low voice, "I originally thought about going to pay Khan Ama a moment later, but I didn't expect Khan Ama to come and pass me a message."

"Ama Khan has your body in his heart, knowing that you will be passed on when you get out of the tent, and Ama Khan will be happy to see you now." Yinxiang said.

……

The two brothers came to Kangxi's camp while they were talking, and after passing the news, they walked in together.

Sheng Mingzhen looked at Yinxiang's movements with his head down, and when he saw him kneeling down, he knelt down without hesitation, and then followed Yinxiang to pay his respects.

"My son Yinxiang."

"My son Yinti."

"Greetings to the Holy Annals of Khan Amma."

"Well, get up." Kangxi, who was sitting at the top, looked at the two sons kneeling below, nodded, and said again, "Brother Fourteen, are you feeling better?"

"It's much better if you answer Khan Ama." Sheng Mingzhen bent down, recalling the way of speaking in the Qing palace dramas he watched in his mind, and replied cautiously, "My son is already so old, but it still makes Khan feel so tired." Ama is worrying and worrying, it's because my son and minister are not filial."

"You..." Looking at his beloved son Kangxi, he only shook his head, and beckoned Sheng Mingzhen to come forward. After carefully examining his face, he saw that his face was no longer as pale as yesterday before nodding, "You also know that you are You're such a grown man, how can you act so rashly, do you know how panicked I was when I heard someone report that you fell off your horse yesterday?"

"It's my son's recklessness, which makes Han Ama worry, and my son is ashamed." Hearing Kangxi's words that could not be blamed, Sheng Mingzhen knelt down and confessed his mistake honestly.

"Okay." Kangxi pulled Sheng Mingzhen who was kneeling on the ground up, and patted his hands, "I heard Brother Thirteen said that you were dizzy from shaking your head yesterday, so don't keep kneeling now. Yes. If you feel ashamed, you should take good care of your wounds, remember what happened this time, think about it before doing something next time, think about these brothers who care about you, think about your Khan Ama, stop being so impulsive .”

"My son obeys the order." Sheng Mingzhen replied with his head bowed.

After caring about his injured son here, Kangxi began to ask about Yinxiang's business affairs. Seeing this, Sheng Mingzhen stepped aside honestly. Regardless of whether he understood or not, Sheng Mingzhen still listened attentively shape.

Because the fourteenth elder brother was injured, Kangxi didn't send him any errands, but only told him to recuperate well, so Sheng Mingzhen naturally nestled in the tent and counted ants.

Even when traveling outside the Great Wall, it is inevitable that there will be princes from Inner Mongolia and Mongolia, and Kangxi will inevitably entertain the princes, and the fourteenth elder brother is injured and can't fight or drink.

Sheng Mingzhen was so happy to stay alone in the tent to entertain himself, listening to Xiao Xizi's gossip with the stove on, only two words can describe it.

After the banquet, Yinxiang came to visit and when he opened the curtain, he saw his fourteenth younger brother leaning on the couch and listening to Xiao Xizi who was beaming with joy, smiling very happily.

"What are you talking about, it's so lively?" Yinxiang walked in with a smile and asked.

Seeing Yinxiang coming in, Sheng Mingzhen sat up from the couch, "Brother Thirteen is here, I just asked Xiao Xizi to tell a joke." As soon as he walked to Yinxiang's side, he asked about the smell of alcohol, and couldn't hold back his frowns. He frowned, "How much wine did Brother Thirteen drink?"

"What? Choked nose?" Seeing Sheng Mingzhen's expression, Yinxiang thought that his alcohol smell made him uncomfortable, subconsciously raised his sleeve and took a sniff, then took two steps back, "How about I change it?" Put on your clothes and come back."

"It's okay." Sheng Mingzhen waved his hand, took the tea from Xiaoxizi and handed it to Yinxiang, "Brother Thirteen, what do you want from me?"

"It's nothing." Yinxiang took the tea that Sheng Mingzhen handed over, and said with a smile, "I just came to see you, and I'm afraid you will be bored in the tent alone, but now it seems," Yinxiang said, looking around , "You are quite enjoying yourself."

"Hey, I have to find some fun for myself." Sheng Mingzhen replied, looking at Yinxiang's flushed face, he urged, "Everything is fine here, if Brother Thirteen has nothing else to do, let's go back and rest earlier , I see that you have often been drunk by those Mongolian princes."

"No, it's almost the same every time." Yinxiang felt a little helpless when he thought of the boldness of those Mongolians, thinking that there are indeed some superiors looking at Sheng Mingzhen and it's really good, so he nodded and said, "I see that you are also doing well now." , I won't stay any longer, you should rest earlier."

Sheng Mingzhen was about to nod his head when a casual voice came from the door curtain, "Hey, Thirteenth Brother is here too!"

Sheng Mingzhen and Yinxiang looked there at the same time, and bowed their heads when they saw people coming, "Prince."

"Forget it, why should my brothers be so polite." The prince replied casually.

When the two stood up straight, the prince Yinreng had already brought the eunuch in, and before Sheng Mingzhen asked the other party why he came to his tent, Yinreng waved his hand to signal the eunuch behind him to give away the things he was holding. Stepping forward, "Khan Ama said that the fourteenth brother did not attend today's banquet, and specially gave the fourteenth brother two dishes..."

In short, Master Kong was worried that his son would not be able to eat well by himself, so he asked his second son to deliver two dishes, and asked about his health along the way.

In all fairness, Kangxi is actually quite competent to be a father, and while he was socializing with the Mongolian prince, he still had to worry about his youngest son's health.

Sheng Mingzhen added another three points to Kangxi's affection in his heart, and after thanking him, he did not forget to thank Yinfeng.

Compared with his own father, Yinfeng obviously didn't have much real concern for this younger brother who is now very doted on. He only gave a few words of advice and then turned and left.

It's just that Yinfeng stopped before he left, turned around and glanced at Sheng Mingzhen and Yinxiang, a little excited, "The relationship between the fourteenth brother and the thirteenth brother is good now." After speaking, he opened the curtain After walking out, only Sheng Mingzhen and Yinxiang were left staring at each other.

After a few more days, Sheng Mingzhen began to slowly accept the fact that he was already an elder brother of the Qing Dynasty, and he would not be at a loss for a moment when others called him the fourteenth elder brother or Kangxi called him Yinti .

At this time, a news from the capital disrupted Kangxi's tour of the Great Wall. On June 42, Kangxi 26, Prince Yu Fuquan died.
