Liquidation

Yinzhen sat beside the bed in the main room of Jingren Palace, lost in thought in a daze.

There are many people in the palace, and he knew that he was not Tong Jia's parent and child when he was a child. He once sneaked to Yonghe Palace because of curiosity and the natural admiration between mother and son, and avoided seeing the concubine De who had just entered the throne at that time.

When he saw his biological mother, she hugged his sixth younger brother Yinzuo lovingly, cared for him, and fed him.The maternal love on Concubine De's face was so obvious.

At that time, he had no envy.Because of this look, he also saw that when Tong Jiashi was facing him, as a foster mother, Tong Jiashi was qualified enough.Later, Tong Jiashi became pregnant, and she did not treat Yinzhen the slightest bit badly.

That gege's life is poor, and he will die in one month.Tong Jiashi seemed to have given up all her thoughts and devoted herself to taking care of Yinzhen, treating him as her own son.

So Yinzhen felt that he was nothing. It was normal for a concubine in the palace to raise a child. What Concubine De could give him, so could Tong Jia.

Later Tong Jiashi went.Yinzhen, who regards her as his mother-in-law, has done everything he can do, but sometimes his manpower is exhausted, and what people are in awe of is what he can't do.Yinzhen forced herself to accept this matter, and at the same time guessed in her heart that Concubine De was no longer the maid of honor, and now she could raise her own child, what kind of expression and thoughts would she have when she saw her back?

What Yinzhen didn't expect was also what Kangxi didn't expect.Maybe Kangxi thought of it, the women in the palace adopt children, it is best if the mother dies and the children are young, wishing that all of them are leftover children left by their mothers who died of dystocia.The same is true for Tong Jiashi. When she adopted Yinzhen, Yinzhen was less than one year old and had no memory of her mother, so she could train her to be her adoptive mother.

Her only regret is that Wu Ya not only survived, but also climbed up step by step.Became one of the four concubines, Concubine De, and then had children and had everything.

She also regrets her own death, regrets that she can't see Yinzhen grow up, can't see him get married and build a mansion, can't see him show his talents in court, run errands for Kangxi, and can't see her daughter-in-law and grandson. Son.

When she was dying that day, in Tong Jia's last moments, what she was thinking about was Yinzhen, her own son.She felt that she still had some sympathy in Kangxi's heart, so she had the courage to use her life to ask for Yinzhen to change the jade certificate, so that she could truly become her own son.

With the status of the queen's son-in-law, Yinzhen is also getting older, presumably after his death, his life in the palace will be easier.In a few years, if he goes out of the palace to build a mansion, no one will restrain him.

Tong Jiashi doesn't believe in Concubine De, she is also a mother, she knows that even if Yinzhen goes back, it will be a thorn in Concubine De's heart.What's more, this son is so old, how much affection can he have for himself?If filial piety is too great, it will not be able to force people to turn against each other.If Yinzhen went back, he would have to look at Concubine De's face.

But with the jade document changed, even if Concubine De is angry, she can't vent it on Yinzhen - he is not her son, she can't control him.

In the past, Kangxi never took up this topic, but now Kangxi's face is calm, and he finally agrees to consider it.

Today Kangxi took Yinzhen to Concubine De's place, Yinzuo died at the age of six, and Concubine De's arms were replaced by Yinzhen.Hugging and coaxing lovingly, enjoying the family happiness.Yinzhen, who had just lost his mother, had red eyes when he looked at it.

Kangxi directly stated his intentions and asked Yinzhen to call back Concubine De to be his mother-in-law. Unexpectedly, Concubine De refused on the spot, saying that it was very hard for her to raise her fourteenth elder brother and she could no longer raise Yinzhen.On the bright side, what he said was nice, but the look in Yinzhen's eyes turned out to be fear and disgust.

Tong Jia's new funeral, Yin Zhen is in a sensitive emotional period.Kangxi could see clearly that Concubine De didn't want this eldest son.Recalling Tong Jia's love for Yinzhen as a adoptive mother, Kangxi broke out on the spot and reprimanded Concubine De, making Yinzhen who was present cry.Concubine De cared about her son, and recalled the past, she was a little mentally stimulated for a while, she became crazy, hugged Yinzhen and cried loudly, scolded Yinzhen who didn't say a word, told him to "get away", saying that she didn't have this son.

Kangxi was so angry that he punished Concubine De to confine her for three months, copying the scriptures a hundred times a day "to drive away evil spirits", and returned home disappointed.

Yinzhen's heart was completely cold.Kangxi told him to go back to Elder Brother's place, and he walked back in a daze, just walking, walked on the familiar road, and came to Jingren Palace.Then he sat by the bed in the inner room of Jingren Palace for several hours.

Everything seemed to pass through his mind, but there seemed to be no thought in his mind.He couldn't feel the sudden drop in temperature in the air, only felt that he was chilling all over.He couldn't hear Su Peisheng's worried voice, nor could the sound of wind and snow outside the door reach his ears.This vast land, the vast sky; this prosperous Forty-Nine City, the majestic and majestic Forbidden Palace...all of these, there is no place for him, and the person who treats him well and gives him maternal love has already leave.His own mother treated him like this again, which made him feel ashamed.

Yinzhen sat there without knowing why, his hands caressed the empty bed board, there was nothing on the bed, the rule in the palace is that the palace where the concubine died will not be inhabited for three years[①].Kangxi and Tong Jia's relationship is very deep, and they will not ask people to live here immediately.The room was deserted, and there was not even a bedding that could bring him a little warmth.

It was as if the woman's voice, face and smile were packed up by the living and hidden in deep warehouses and boxes, never to be opened again.

Yin Zhen only felt lonely.

This loneliness seems to be doomed to accompany him since he was born, it is all in his fate, and it seems that it only appeared after Tong Jia's death, maybe it will always be around him, maybe only this loneliness will not give up on him.And when the familiar "fourth brother" sounded in his ears, Yinzhen suddenly felt that he was no longer alone, this loneliness... went away for a while, and stayed a little far away from him.

Only by holding onto this familiar figure tightly, and repeating a few words over and over in his mind, can he feel that the terrifying thing is moving away, going away, and finally it is temporarily forced back. Yes, as long as this person is by his side, it will not come over, and it will not bring him the most terrible and deepest fear.

Yinhu's eyes were red and he looked at Yinzhen in front of him. When Yinzhen walked to Jingren Palace without knowing it, there were already snowflakes. His shoulders and back were soaked in snow, but he didn't seem to notice it. Sitting there blankly, looking blankly at a certain point in the void, with a fragile and hesitant expression on his face.

He couldn't stop the pain in his heart, he sat down on the opposite side of Yinzhen, and hugged Yinzhen tightly into his arms.His stature was too small, he only hugged most of his waist, buried his head in his arms, and his voice was hoarse and distorted: "Fourth brother! Fourth brother!"

Yinzhen didn't move, and his eyelids never blinked.Yinhu couldn't help feeling extremely heartbroken: "Fourth brother! You cry out! Cry out!"

"Fourth brother! You still have me! You still have me!"

Yinzhen finally had some response, he raised his arm and pulled Yinhu into his arms.The voice seemed to be floating from the sky, vainly: "Eighth brother?"

Su Peisheng was sent by him to find Feng Jing and Liang Jiugong.Regardless of whether Kangxi would wake up or come over to have a look, he would report to the two elder brothers that they did not return to elder brother's place that night.Seeing that Yinzhen finally had a reaction, he hurriedly said, "Fourth brother! It's me! I'm Yinhu!"

With a reaction, all consciousness came back in an instant.Yinzhen shivered, Yinhu hurriedly put another big cloak on him, Yinzhen had already recovered, grabbed it and fastened it by himself.

"Why are you here!" He pulled Yinhu into his arms again, and habitually wrapped the cloak around him tighter.The two hugged each other, and the temperature returned, as if returning to the world.

Yinhu observed his words and expressions: "You didn't go back to Elder Brother's place, and you didn't ask anyone to come back to report. I was anxious, so I sent someone to inquire, saying that Huang Ama didn't keep you, so she came out to look for you." He reached out and touched Yinzhen. Forehead, "fourth brother, you... are you okay?"

"I..." Yinzhen opened his mouth and stopped, is he alright?Are you really all right?But is he okay?What's the matter?

Seeing Yinhu's anxious and concerned face, he could only pause, and said softly, "You're here, I'm fine."

You're here, so I'm fine.You are here, so I will be fine.

Only then did Yinhu relax a little bit, and he didn't dare to ask Yinzhen what happened when he went to Concubine De's place. This was a pain in Yinzhen's heart, and he only hoped that he would forget it early.But Tong Jia's death, Yinzhen will face Concubine De from now on, how can he forget it?

Yinhu felt a great headache, thinking that he could only comfort him slowly.Or find a way from Concubine De to improve the relationship between mother and child.

But he didn't know that Yinzhen's heart died this time.

Around this night, I couldn't go back, and the wind and snow outside became more and more violent.Jingren Palace was empty and there was no heating. Yinhu asked Yinzhen what he thought, and went to the side hall box to get the bedding, spread several layers on the empty bed, and put the big cloak on top of the inner layer of fur. , took off Yinzhen's wet clothes, and the two lay in the same bed, leaning on each other to warm the bed.The body is also covered thickly, which makes me feel better.

Seeing that Yinzhen's expression was not quite right, Yinhu was afraid that he might be thinking wildly, so he called out, "Fourth brother."

"En." Yinzhen responded lightly. "Huang Ama's side..."

"I asked Feng Jing and Su Peisheng to go to Liang Jiugong's place in Qianqing Palace." Yinhu comforted: "Tomorrow we will go to plead guilty to Huang Ama together."

Yinzhen said again: "En."

Yinhu turned around and looked at him face to face, with a seriousness on his face that he had never seen before. "Fourth brother, you still have me."

"As long as I live, I will be by your side." Yinhu paused every word. "I swear, every day Aixinjueluo Yinhu lives, I will stay with Aixinjueluo Yinzhen for one day, and this ambition will not change."

Yinzhen didn't speak, and pulled Yinhu into his arms again. After a long time, he said sullenly: "...um."

Only then did Yinhu relax most of his heart, smiled and leaned against the bed, rubbing against the warmth.

It was windy and snowy outside, and the wind was loud.The quilt warmed up in a short while, making people drowsy, and fell asleep in a short time.After the two of them breathed steadily, several people rushed into the quiet Jingren Palace braved the wind and snow. The leading emperor in uniform and dignified appearance was Kangxi.

A few people walked into the inner room, and saw Lao Gao on the bed, and two children who were only a few years old were sleeping soundly wrapped in it, and they looked more and more thin and pitiful.Liang Jiugong couldn't help being a little surprised, and asked in a low voice, "Long Live Lord, this..."

Kangxi stood at the door, stared at it for a while, and finally waved: "Forget it, let the two of them stay here for the night." He turned around and walked out, and ordered in a low voice: "Tell the two personal eunuchs to stay and serve Let’s see the imperial physician tomorrow. The fourth elder brother and the eighth elder brother will have a day off tomorrow, so they don’t have to go to Wuyi Zhai.”

Liang Jiugong bowed in response, and the sedan chair outside the hall rose again, and Kangxi's voice came out from the sedan chair again: "Prince Jian and Nian Xialing will enter the palace tomorrow."
