The happy life of the four masters of Qingbian

In the 38th year of Kangxi, on July [-]th, Fanghua passed away.

Five years passed by in the blink of an eye. Every year on Tong Fanghua's memorial day, the Jingren Palace became a little more lively. Momo had already moved out of the palace and moved into the Princess Mansion. A while ago, Aunt Yuzhu caught a cold and became seriously ill. Grandpa Kangxi kindly ordered her to go out of the palace to recuperate, and even gave her a villa in the suburbs of Beijing.

Jingren Palace lost its master, Tong Fanghua, but those servants who followed Tong Fanghua in the palace were not bullied by the other palaces. Outside the palace, there are the fourth master, the county prince, Gu Lunqing and the eldest princess. Although Fanghua is gone, there is no other.

In the 43rd year of Kangxi, July [-]th, the moon is full.

"I really envy the two aunts. When can I go out of Beijing to see the mountains and the water?" Momo was talking about Yuzhu and Lanxin. Over the past year, Yuzhu has been raised outside the palace. body, he simply left Beijing with Lan Xin for pleasure.

These two have served their master loyally for many years, and Tong Fanghua treated them like sisters, and had long hoped to return them to freedom.

"Ama has settled down in Jiangnan for a long time. Didn't he send a letter inviting us to come over last month? Perhaps, after a few days, you can ask the emperor to allow us to visit Ama." Xian Yi knew that Momo had been Thinking of leaving Beijing.The "Ama" in his mouth is the master Tong Xinfeng. Since Tong Fanghua passed away five years ago, Xinfeng left after the funeral.

Hearing this, Yinzhen glanced at Xian Yi indifferently, lowered his head and took the teacup, took a sip, frowning slightly at the entrance, a little bit bitter.

Momo simply ignored such a fourth brother, turned her head and smiled gently at Jing Xiu who was beside her, "Axiu, you should go back to clean up tonight, and get ready to go to Jiangnan." On this night every year, Momo It is to stay overnight at Jingren Palace.

Jing Xiu returned a soft smile, he is already a 23-year-old guy, he has become more elegant and calm, and almost completely lost the frivolity of his youth, "Okay."

For five years, Yinzhen always had a knot in his heart, unable to calmly face the marriage between Xianyi and Momo, even though he knew it clearly in his heart, he still avoided it again and again.What's more, in the past few years, because of the departure of Fanghua Erniang, Yinzhen made up his mind to put all his energy on fighting for power and position, and he used his busyness to numb his emotions.

Xian Yi met Momo's teasing gaze, and smiled helplessly, what can I do?Just guard him, stay with him, watch him step by step towards the pinnacle of power, and help him win what he wants... that's all!

Originally, Kangxi also got together with the children in Jingren Palace every year, but it was already on the branches, and the emperor hadn't been seen tonight, so Momo curled her lips, "Is it possible that Huang Ama was actually taken by some newcomer to the palace?" Xiu Nu hooked up? Did you forget about Er Niang's memorial day?"

Just after the draft, Lord Kangxi was busy with the recent Enke affairs, so he didn't care about adding newcomers to his harem, but it was the old empress who made the decision and asked Concubine De to help select a few young girls. Kangxi was unwilling to refute the queen mother's decision In order to save face, he was even more generous, directly canonizing two concubines and several nobles.

Concubine Yi is a straightforward person, she only helps her elders, fifth and ninth, and the tenth Yin'er who is fostered under her name to choose a few attractive girls. For Defei's hypocritical woman, Guo Luoluo What is out of sight is pure, helping the Long Live God to pick a woman is really what Concubine De is doing to her heart's content, Concubine Yi's expression is all ironic.

When Li Dequan came to Jingren Palace with Chief Manager Yu Lianshui, he was just about to invite someone to pass the news outside the gate, when he heard Her Royal Highness accuse Long Live Lord that Li Dequan was favored by Yu Lianshui just three years after he entered the palace and was chosen as The successor is usually bold and careful, but now his son heard someone speak so bluntly about Long Live Lord's love affair, he was really unsteady on his feet and almost fell.

Yu Lianshui glanced at the little apprentice casually, and said that he was a little apprentice. This little Lizi was also in his early twenties. At the beginning, he had taken a fancy to him for his calm temperament at a young age. Scared by Kuangyan and swept away by the master's eyes, Xiao Lizi became sober a lot, and hurriedly lowered his head to gather himself.

"Momo!" Yinzhen woke up aloud, but without any tone of reproach. Ever since Er Niang passed away, the relationship between Yinzhen and Kangxi has become extremely delicate. Ma's favor, and more respect for Huang Ama, the emperor, but gradually, many things changed.

"Okay, okay, can't I stop talking? I won't be listened to by someone with a heart, and I will go to Huang Ama to sue me. If I am accused of deceiving the emperor again, it will be a big crime... …Isn’t that right, Manager Yu?” Once reminded by the fourth brother, Momo followed the eyes of the eighth brother, and it was easy to see the people standing outside the yard.

Li Dequan trembled all over. He had long heard that Her Highness the princess was moody, but in the past two years in the palace, it was rare to see this princess once. The fourth master and the eighth master glanced away, and Xiao Lizi couldn't calm down even more.

Jiang, you are old and hot, "Your Highness, are you out of touch? How can this servant not know that you are joking? If anyone listens seriously and passes the words to the ears of Long Live God, this servant will be the first!" Don't let him go! Hehe..."

He was in his forties, but Yu Lianshui maintained himself as if he was just in his early thirties, bowing his knees to several masters, and his appearance as a slave was not annoying.

Li Dequan usually admires his master's ability to eat in front of Long Live God. Now, seeing Yu Lianshui talking and laughing freely in front of these little ancestors, he really admires him... More importantly, Yu The chief executive didn't even buy the crown prince's account, but he showed a faint intention to please the few masters in front of him!

Momo chatted with Yu Lianshui with great interest, but Yinzhen saw it, with an unpredictable expression, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and the expression that had become solemn just now, actually held back a smile , "Ahem...Momo." Yinzhen coughed like a suppressed laugh, "Mr. Yu is here, but what orders does Huang Ama have?" How could Yinzhen not laugh?But I clearly remember that when Aunt Yuzhu and Aunt Lanxin left the capital, Yu Lian and Shui Yu, the manager of Yu Lian Shuiyu, specially invited an order to see him off at the palace. Yinzhen was the one who saw the scene, and it was Aunt Yuzhu who secretly took care of them. Yu Lianshui pulled it to a corner, then stretched out her hand and pinched Yu Lianshui's ear, twisting it hard, and her aunt told her again and again, "You must take good care of the little masters, otherwise, You look good..."

The friendship between Yu Lianshui and Jingren Palace is not shallow, and Yinzhen has no way of knowing how deep it is, but there is one thing, Er Niang once said that Yu Lianshui is trustworthy.

The most trusted chief executive by Huang Ama's side, this identity, Yinzhen has long been calculated in his heart, and he must use this relationship wisely, and make a long-term plan.

"Returning to the fourth master, the Lord Long Live wants the slave to come and explain to His Highness the Princess. Suddenly there is a rush from the south of the Yangtze River. The Lord Long Live has recruited several adults to discuss in the imperial study. It is a case of fraud in the Jiangnan Examination Center. The exact situation, so tonight is probably..."

Yu Lianshui had just been teased by the princess Momo, when the fourth master asked a question, he happened to relieve the embarrassment and quickly replied.

Momo turned cold before he finished speaking, "So, I'm afraid I won't be able to come to Jingren Palace tonight? I mean, it's an urgent delivery of [-] miles, and it's really time to send it..."

Being interrupted by the princess, Yu Lianshui looked as usual, but listening to the sarcasm in the princess's words, Yu Lianshui regained his composure, and finally decided to offend, and opened his mouth to interrupt Momo's words, "Your Highness, Long Live Lord said, today I am afraid that I will come to Jingren Palace later, so let the servants come to inform first, see, all the servants can't speak, so your Highness misunderstood the meaning of Long Live Lord."

As a slave, how can I push the fault to the master, I naturally have to take it over by myself, not to mention, this is indeed the original intention of Lord Kangxi.

Only then did Momo calm down, "Axiu, go to the small kitchen and ask them to prepare some snacks and tea...Hmph!"

No matter what, Huang Ama loves her all the time, so Momo is just trying to make fun of her, and she always thinks about this Ama in her heart.

"Fourth Master, Eighth Master, and Eunuch, you should go to the Imperial Study Room first. Lord Long Live is waiting, and I want to invite you to discuss together." Yu Lianshui spoke carefully now, fearing that he would be provocative again. With Her Royal Highness's temper, it is really unreasonable for Master Tong to leave the princess alone at this moment.

"Me? Manager Yu, do you remember correctly? Huang Ama really called me up too?" Xian Yi was really surprised when he heard this. In the past few years, he has been his low-key shadow who can't be more low-key. Forehead son-in-law, the affairs of the court can really be avoided if possible, why do you include yourself in the discussion of important matters tonight?

Yinzhen also frowned, but Yinhu was thoughtful, but Momo slapped the table, "Where are you going! They all ran away, what's the matter with leaving Bengong here alone? Fourth brother, eighth brother, you see Huang Ama then said, if my son-in-law doesn't participate in politics, Xian Yi won't go, and stay here with me to do my filial piety to my mother-in-law!"

This is how her Royal Highness, the princess, dared to go against the will of Lord Kangxi so openly!

Li Dequan stood aside with his head bowed, the more he listened, the more stupefied he became, and he caught a glimpse of the usual expression on his master Yu Lianshui's face. For a moment, he thought of the rumors about the long live Lord Long Chong's eldest princess, and he believed it very much at the moment.

Yinzhen smiled dotingly, stood up, and reached out to pat his younger sister on the head. Sometimes, it really only works if Momo is so unreasonable and mischievous, but this trick is really only Momo can treat Huang Ama used it, but my fourth brother had to use other methods, "Xian Yi, you stay with Momo."

The fourth master just smiled, which stunned Li Dequan, where did the county prince smile like this before?Now, hearing that the fourth master obeyed the princess' wishes, the little Lizi became even more puzzled. On weekdays, there was no time when the fourth master went against the wishes of the long live Lord, but now, with a light word, that's it?Can it work?

Yu Lianshui couldn't see the little apprentice's doubts, so he ignored it, and even didn't say a word about the fourth master's decision, and just followed the princess and the forehead to leave, because the fourth and eighth masters went to the imperial study.

Seeing Yinzhen and the others leave, Momo tilted her head and smiled at Xian Yi, "Banxian, look at how much fourth brother loves you, and he didn't hesitate to go against Huang Ama's intention, just to protect you from joining the imperial court." Those things!"

What she said was right, but it was as if she was the first to reject Kangxi's intentions just now, and it was not her who started it!

Yinzhen will not refuse Xianyi's help in making suggestions, but from the very beginning, Yinzhen followed Xianyi's thoughts and helped Xianyi block in front of Kangxi, only letting Xianyi be a very leisurely little prince and concubine Grandpa... Once he enters the imperial court, even if Xian Yi is Gu Lun's son-in-law, he will inevitably face off against the crown prince, and he will inevitably suffer losses. After all, the crown prince is the heir apparent.

How could Xian Yi not understand Yinzhen's thoughts? "You girl knows how to make fun of me, don't you?" Changed the subject, "Speaking of which, when do you plan to give birth to me a son?"

"Crack!" There was a crisp sound, and the plate fell.

Jing Xiu hurriedly lowered her head, bent down to tidy up, accidentally cut her finger, but felt no pain.

"Idiot! What are you thinking? Won't it hurt if your finger is broken? Why don't you come and let me see..." Momo murmured at Jing Xiu and was angry at Xian Yi, who was watching the show. Glaring hard, can't you, a half-immortal, suffer for once?

Besides, Axiu is usually shrewd and even cunning, so how come she encounters such a joke, she has no concentration at all!

Although she complains, Momo is sweet in her heart. The happiness she wants is very simple...Jing Xiu is willing to accept his thoughts, protect her, and be a shadow, that's enough.

It's like, the half-immortal should be a carefree person in the world, but he is willing to assume the identity of a shadow forehead for the sake of the fourth brother, willing to wait and protect, all of them are happy.

"Banxian, it stands to reason that Nala gave birth to twins for the fourth brother, you authentic fourth sister-in-law, when do you plan to give birth to a son and a half daughter for the fourth brother?" Looking at the wound on Jing Xiu's finger , Momo was not reconciled.

Xian Yi spat out a mouthful of tea with a "poof" and coughed for a long time.

As soon as Yinzhen walked to the door of the imperial study, before entering, he felt a chill behind his back, and thought to himself, I'm afraid something will happen tonight!

How do you know that Momo is teasing behind her back?

……

In fact, Momo's guess was right. The time of the urgent delivery at eight hundred miles was so coincidental. It was indeed a trick deliberately set up by someone with a heart. For several years, Master Kangxi's feelings for Tong Fanghua became stronger and stronger as the old man passed away. Well, this point can be known from Kangxi's favor towards the fourth and eighth children, as well as Momo and others.

Everything seems to start from another origin.

Back then, Queen Hesheli passed away, and Yinfeng, the second child, seemed to have received all the favors.

Five years ago, Empress Tong Jia passed away, and the old fourth party divided half of the crown prince's power in the court. After all, Yinzhen is also considered the queen's son in a sense. With status and power, The most important thing is that Lord Kangxi's favor towards the fourth elder brother faintly caught up with his favor towards the crown prince.

Taking advantage of Tong Fanghua's memorial day, the purpose of bringing the Jiangnan Enke fraud case to Lord Kangxi was to prevent the emperor from going to Jingren Palace to commemorate Tong Fanghua.

Indeed, in Kangxi's heart, the court affairs are the most important, and the world is the most important.

However, the result is...

"Yinzhen, I appointed you as an imperial envoy for the case of the Jiangnan Examination Center. You must find out for me. If it is true, the perpetrators will be dealt with severely and will never be forgiven lightly!" No one expected that the discussion came to the end. It will be such a decision!

"Huang Ama, this... this, I remember, today is Tong Eniang's memorial day. Every year at this time, the fourth brother is sad. I feel that the matter of going to the south of the Yangtze River should be handled by the fourth brother at this time. It's not right..."

Yinfeng is in a hurry. He knows best what is going on in Jiangnan. How could he have expected that he would be preempted by the fourth child?In this urgency, the words came out of my mouth.

Kangxi frowned when he heard that the second child used Tong Fanghua's death as an issue.

"Huang Ama, the crown prince is worried about my minister, and I am grateful." Yinzhen took a step forward calmly, with a firm voice, "Huang Ama trusts my minister, and the errands assigned by him should be dedicated, and I dare not Slacking off, this... is also the intention of my minister to be filial and loyal. This minister will definitely live up to Huang Ama's trust, and share Huang Ama's worries in the case of the Jiangnan examination room."

Yinfeng glared at the fourth brother fiercely, he had nothing to say, he was not stupid, he had touched Kangxi's bottom line just now, at this moment, it is better to keep silent.

Kangxi nodded in satisfaction, "Filial piety and loyalty? What a filial piety and loyalty!"

Is filial piety first, and then loyalty?

Originally, this should not be an answer that satisfied Lord Kangxi, but for the fourth son, the inadvertent admiration Yinzhen showed made Kangxi feel inexplicably warm.

And then, Lord Kangxi once again surprised the court. Just before Yinzhen took the order to leave Beijing and go to the south of the Yangtze River on the third day, Yu Lianshui came to Yongjun Palace holding the imperial decree.

Yinzhen, Prince of Yongjun, became Prince Yong in the blink of an eye.

It is not the first time for Yinzhen to go to Beijing on business, so Yinzhen understands the meaning of the title of "Prince" given by Huang Ama. The fourth son, he wants the fourth son to finish his errands.

The prince who has just been crowned the prince, can he mess up the errand?

Anyone who intentionally tripped the fourth child in this case would be clearly against Lord Kangxi!

The trip to the south of the Yangtze River, a good start, is half the success. This trip is more like a vacation in Beijing.
