Drunk Qingqiu

Regarding Yinzhen's cold treatment and low-key behavior, Yinhu has never expressed it. He seems to have forgotten that there is such a person, but Yinyu and Yinzhen have a lot of dissatisfaction.

Yinzhen had to chatter with his two elder brothers on weekdays, although Yinyu didn't talk, but he always had a bad face when he met Yinzhen occasionally.It turned out that the officials of the Baye Party who always had to greet Yinzhen when they met each other also began to wait and see, but no one dared to put on the same face as Yinzhen.This group of fox-like officials are also very shrewd, Yinhu doesn't express his opinion, Jiuye is his blood brother after all, when will they reconcile, the unlucky ones are not the subordinates.

Since Yinzhen helped Yinfeng when he elected the prince, the princelings tried to come to see him or give gifts, but Yinzhen treated others the same as before, lukewarm.Over time, there were almost no officials who walked around with Yinzhen.Except for Li Xijing who occasionally came to Jiubeile's residence because of his business.

What is even more puzzling is that Yinhu and Yinhu are estranged, and Yinzhen and Yinzhen are no longer as close as before.

There was only one time when Yinzhen came to Yinxiang's mansion for a drink, when Yinzhen picked up a piece of golden shredded siu mai in Yinzhen's shapeless hands.

Yinxiang couldn't help asking Yinzhen: "Ninth brother, since you don't help the eighth brother anymore, why don't you help the fourth brother? Although the fourth brother is from the second brother's side, because he can't see it, even if it is the second brother's I ordered, and refused without saving face. Therefore, the prince now pays more attention to the old ministers in the past."

"As for the fourth brother, because of his harsh temperament, he has done a lot of practical things for the common people and offended more and more people. There are really too few people who help him. If you and I don't help him..."

Yinzhen was silent for a while, raised his eyes to look at Yinxiang, with a strange smile on his lips, "Thirteenth brother, do you really think that no one is standing beside fourth brother?"

Seeing Yinxiang looking at him puzzledly, Yinzhen finished eating the siu mai in his hand, then lightly licked the oil on his hands, the tip of his tongue slipped over the long, thin and extremely beautiful joints, and looked All the servants in the house blushed.Even Yinxiang, who usually didn't pay attention to these things, noticed it. He suppressed a smile and told everyone in the room to go down.

Yinzhen looked at him inexplicably, and continued: "In your opinion, starling is very popular now, and there is no second in the limelight, but I think the advantage of fourth brother is not much less than that of starling. Myna's people are all in the court, while four Brother’s disciples are all below, and although most of them are unknown, they all hold real power, such as Nian Gengyao from Sichuan, or Fu Nai.”

"One more thing, as the thirteenth brother said, the fourth brother did things for the people and offended many people. But didn't the fourth brother get anything? Thirteenth brother, if you choose, who do you want to be the prince? Yinzhen looked at Yinxiang opposite with a smile.

Yinxiang lowered his head, and said for a long time: "Although I have never had any dissatisfaction with the prince, but last time I helped the second brother in the Rehe Palace, I don't owe him anything anymore. If I were to tell you, who do I think Not as suitable as the fourth brother."

Yinzhen sighed, nodded and said: "Isn't that right? Everyone in this world has their own eyes, and they will see. More importantly, Huang Ama must like it very much if the fourth brother does this. Up to Brother Prince, it doesn't matter how we look at it, down to the officials and common people. In this capital, honor and disgrace are only in the hands of Huang Ama."

When Yinxiang heard the last few sentences, although he was amazed in his heart, he couldn't say anything.He had a very deep relationship with Kangxi since he was a child, and he just felt extremely uncomfortable.

Yinzhen patted Yinxiang's shoulder, and said: "I have said so much, just want to tell you that the fourth brother is not alone, at least he still has you. But I am already very tired, I just want to live a simple life day."

After seeing Yinzhen go out, Yinxiang said in a low voice: "Fourth brother."

Yinzhen came out from the door behind the screen, looked at the direction Yinzhen was walking in and groaned silently.There was a faint haze and distress in his eyes.

"Unexpectedly, Xiaojiu thinks of me so highly." Thinking of Yinzhen's comments on him, Yinzhen felt much more at ease, even more comfortable than those counselors' praise.

"Forget it, it's the best choice for Brother Jiu to do this. It's fine if he quits. Even if Xiao Jiu has nothing to rely on in the future, I will never let him suffer any grievances."

In a blink of an eye, it is October in the 48th year of Kangxi.

This day Li Xijing brought the documents over again, and Yinzhen was having tea with Lao Shisan in Songyuan, seeing that he was not considered an outsider, so he asked He Yuzhu to invite him over.

When Li Xijing entered the room, he saw that Yinzhen was in normal clothes, lazily leaning on the kang, looking at Yinxiang with raised eyebrows and a smile.His eyebrows and eyes are unparalleled, but there is a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth, which is strangely deceptive.Li Xijing had a calm temperament at first, and after seeing Yinzhen's appearance too much, he had long been used to the strangeness, and now he felt his heart beating faster.

He made up his mind, walked over with his usual expression, saw the two elder brothers, and then sat on the chair beside the kang, the servant in the room had already brought tea.

Yinzhen scanned the document in Li Xijing's hand, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Thank you Xijing, Thirteenth Brother and I have an appointment to go to Baiweitang. Is Xijing interested in going with me and Thirteenth Brother?"

Li Xijing's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "It's rare that Lord Jiu wants to go out and walk around, and I'm an official to accompany him. It's just that since we're going to a restaurant, why don't we go to Quanjude?"

Yinzhen raised his chin to Yinxiang who was opposite, "He chose the place."

When Yinxiang heard about Quanjude, he seemed to be reminiscing. When his saliva was about to flow out, he came back to his senses. Seeing that both of them looked at him with a smile, he explained: "No matter how delicious it is, you can't go there all day. Besides, brother Jiu is a miser. I won’t charge less money when I go. I’d better go to Baiweiju today, I heard that the Sichuan cuisine masters there cook very authentic.”

Yinzhen nodded and ordered He Yuzhu to prepare the carriage.

Although it was not far away, Yinxiang's legs were exposed to the cold and damp in the beekeeping lane during the months of being confined, and occasionally felt leg pain.Yinhu was worried that he might get rheumatism in history, or had already got it, so he brought out a lot of good medicines that he had found for Yinhu before.

Yinxiang himself didn't care about it, he was about to go out, and when he saw Yinzhen asking the people below to prepare the car, he hurriedly said: "Brother Jiu, let's go on foot, staying in the mansion all day is very boring, and it happens to be okay Move your muscles."

Yinzhen glanced at his legs, sighed inwardly, the time of being imprisoned is not long, I just hope it is not serious now.

Pedestrians coming and going on the street, hawkers yelling at the side of the street, snacks such as Suzao meat, kidney bean cake, pea yellow, fried sweet potato, etc., and even some Chinese characters, it was extremely lively.When the three of them approached the Guozijian, the people in front suddenly hid on both sides of the road, and then officers and soldiers cleared the way, and a carriage came in the middle, which was extremely luxurious.

Because they were in ordinary clothes, Yinzhen and Yinxiang didn't have many people around them, and the guards changed into ordinary people's clothes to protect them around.Such a scene is common in the capital, and Yinzhen retreated directly to the side of the road.

Yinxiang suddenly gasped in surprise, and at the same time stretched out his hand and pulled Yinzhen's sleeve: "Ninth Brother, look, this entourage is clearly dressed as an infantry yamen, why is this guard of honor a prince's guard of honor?"

Seeing Yinxiang standing on the side of the road and refusing to leave, Yinzhen stopped, and Li Xijing also frowned slightly.

Yinxiang stood there with his hands behind his back, motionless like a mountain, with a majestic momentum, he stretched out his hand to stop the carriage when it approached: "Which prince is in the carriage?"

The curtain of the carriage was lifted abruptly, and the people inside leaned over to look out, with angry faces, small eyes, mustache, and a slightly fat round face.When the man saw Yinxiang, he was startled and laughed, "It turned out to be the Thirteenth Master. The next official asked him to meet the Thirteenth Master."

Since Yinxiang was imprisoned in the Rehe Palace, even though he was released now, everyone in the government and the public knew that the thirteenth master had fallen out of favor.Some officials were afraid that getting closer to Lord Thirteen would affect their own future. Therefore, the lively scene in front of Brother Thirteen's mansion in the past is gone forever, and now it is empty, which is a testament to the warmth and warmth of human relations. The world is hot and cold.

Seeing that it was Tuo Heqi, Yinxiang walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, with a curious look on his face: "So it's you, it's such a grand occasion, I think some prince has arrived."

Tuo Heqi blushed, but he had always been valued by Yinreng, and he was appreciated by Kangxi in the past two years. Although Yinxiang was also considered to be part of Yinreng's party, he felt a little uncomfortable being ridiculed.He didn't get out of the car to salute, and said in an official voice: "Master Thirteen, there is still an urgent matter for the crown prince to call down the official. He is busy with errands, so I will leave first. I hope Thirteenth Lord will forgive me if I have been rude." The coachman said, "Quick, I don't know if Grandpa is in a hurry today!"

Yin Xiang was taken aback for a moment, and Yin Tang also stood up now, and looked at Tuo Heqi coldly with his dark eyes, with obvious disdain.

Tuo Heqi was surprised by Yinzhen, he really didn't realize that Yinzhen was there.Although it is rumored that Yinhu also lost his favor and had a falling out with Eighth Master Yinhu, but so far no one dares to make things difficult. First, Yinhu used to defend everywhere, and second, the power of Guo Luoluo's family is not a good match. of.Today, he offended the two elder brothers.

Reluctantly, the coachman caught his words and lashed the horse's ass with a whip.The carriage has already passed where Yinxiang and Yinzhen were standing.

"It's too outrageous! Who are these people around the second brother? No, I have to talk to the fourth brother." Yinxiang regained his composure and said slowly.Although he has a bad temper, he has grown a lot after this imprisonment, and knows that now is not the time to fall out with the prince's people.Especially him, otherwise it would be even more difficult for the fourth brother.

Yinzhen looked at the carriage going away coldly, how long will the princelings be proud?

Tuo Heqi's carriage didn't take a few steps, but was forced to stop again.

"Blind dog slave, are you going to hit me?" a person over there scolded.

Tuo Heqi, who was cursing secretly in the carriage, stretched out his head to look outside, immediately changed his face, got out of the carriage with a smile, and stepped forward to salute: "The next official, Tuo Heqi, has met Eighth Master, Tenth Master, and Fourteenth Master."

Not far away, Yinzhen could hear clearly that it was the old ten's voice who was cursing just now.His heart beat suddenly quickened, he wanted to go over and take a look, but also wanted to leave this place immediately.

I haven't seen each other several times a year, and the love, hatred, and complaints in my heart have gradually faded away, and the only thing left is not getting used to it.But what's the point of seeing it?Or let them laugh at him for being so messed up that even an official can be rude to his face?Anyway, Yinzhen did not regret the choice at the beginning.

Yinzhen bowed his head and smiled wryly, pulled Yinxiang, and said in a low voice, "Thirteenth brother, let's go."

"No, I want to see how this slave treats mynah and the others."

In the winter, Tuo Heqi's chubby face was covered with beads of sweat.Yinhu is different from Nine Lords and Thirteenth Lords. Although Kangxi did not make him the prince last time, the number of people supporting Yinhu in the court has not decreased.At least Kui Xu, A Ling'a and other important officials are still on Ba Ye's side.

Standing in the court hall, Yinhu is a figure that even the prince would have a headache, how dare he, the commander of the infantry, neglect him.

Seeing him like this, Yinzhen raised the corners of his mouth and giggled: "Who am I? Dare to be Mr. Tuo Heqi. The second brother's people are different, even the dog around him is more expensive than ordinary people. , even us masters don’t pay attention.”

Tuo Heqi froze, tried his best to keep a smile on his face, and hurriedly explained: "How can it be, you should know that the masters are here, the officials have come here to say hello--"

Yinhu smiled, but his eyes were cold; after Yinzhen finished speaking, he went to talk to Yinhu, and ignored him.Yinyu didn't listen to his explanation, rolled up his sleeves and started, cursing: "You dog slave who looks down on people, your master is here, and I'm not afraid of your tenth master, but you still flirt with him!" It's time to score!"

After Yinxi gave Tuoheqi a punch and two kicks, Fang was persuaded by Yinhu and Yinzhen to leave, and walked away cursing all the way.

Tuo Heqi stood where he was, his face turned blue and then pale.People on the street lowered their heads, did not dare to laugh, and retreated far away.

Yinxiang laughed out loud for a while, and then turned cold again. After all, Tuo Heqi is also the prince's man.The two came back to their senses, only to see Yinhu, Yinyi, Yinzhen and others coming this way.There was no way for Yinzhen and Yinxiang to avoid it, so they could only go forward and meet the three of them.

Yinzhen greeted the three of them calmly, then stood quietly by the side without saying much.Yinzhen didn't go out for many days, although she wasn't fat, she was quite pale.Coupled with the black fox fur, his face was pale and somewhat transparent.

Yinhu has been looking at him since he came here, and frowned when he saw his appearance.

As soon as Yin Xiang said a few words of politeness, Yin Qu frowned and said: "Old Thirteen, don't blame Brother Ten for speaking straight, where is your desperate aura of Thirteen Langs, let a slave act presumptuously in front of your eyes!" Said angrily Then, he glanced at Yinzhen again.

Yinxiang could only answer a few words indiscriminately, and the two groups of talents separated.

Yinhu looked at the direction where the two left, and said thoughtfully: "Xiao Shisi, you send someone to look at Baiweiju, I'm afraid Kui Xu is over there, let him restrain himself."

Yinzhen looked at Yinxiang and nodded.

.. ......

Baylor Mansion, Study Room.

Yin Qu walked around a few times angrily, still scolding Tuo Heqi for his lack of manners.

Yinhu raised his hand to signal him to shut up, and said quietly: "Since we have to make arrangements sooner or later, why not start with this Tuo Heqi first. In a few days, I will disclose the matter of Tuo Heqi to... Wang Yi in the matter, With his temper, he will definitely take care of He Qi."

Yinzhen clapped his hands and said: "This is a good idea. It will make the second brother and that dog slave a headache, and we can't touch him." Thinking of what Yinhu asked him to do just now, he couldn't help laughing and said: "This Kui Xu He and A Ling'a have become more and more able to do things recently. These days, the two of them often look at the iceberg face of the fourth brother. They are close to the fourth brother in the open, so that those people can't figure it out. Then pretend to be the fourth brother's instigation, Go around spreading the word about the prince."

Yinhu nodded, stroked the thumb on the thumb, and said: "This is a good idea. No matter how high the official positions of Kui Xu and A Ling'a are, they dare not speak lightly of the right and wrong of the prince. They borrowed the name of the fourth brother, Prince Yong Building momentum can also be used to avenge the opportunism of the fourth brother when the new crown prince was installed last year. He won the praise of Huang Ama, and he looks good on the surface, but he made many officials scolded and fearful. If the crown prince said that there is no conclusion in his heart, it is impossible of."

Yin's uncle is A Ling'a, and Yin'a also said, "Besides, now that Huang Ama is watching, it's inconvenient for the eighth brother to get along with the second brother. The fourth brother is different, he has been very popular recently. .”

The three of them discussed some details, and when it was time to hold the lamp, Yin Qu and Yin Zhen replied.Yinhu read the brochure again, then slowly stood up and walked to the window.The smile has disappeared on his face.

Yinzhen has treated him like this, and he is reluctant to touch him. If others dare to touch Yinzhen, they will die.

Not a few days after Yinzhen and Yinxiang met Tuoheqi, the upright Wang Yi reported that Tuoheqi, the commander of the infantry, disregarded the state system and used the prince's guard of honor when he went out.Kangxi withheld the booklet, but did not express his opinion.

In the following months, people in the capital became more and more fluctuating.

Kui Xuhua used a lot of money to buy actors and actresses, etc., and often held banquets in the house he bought, preaching that the prince was immoral.From time to time, Ah Ling also publicized Yinreng's bad deeds among the officials, saying that he must retaliate, and he is narrow-minded.Even Wang Hongxu, who was dismissed from office last time, also spread these unfavorable public opinions in the Jiangnan officialdom.

In November of the 48th year of Kangxi, Marhun, king of Doroan County, died.This king of Anjun is the uncle of the Eight Fortune Jin Yuhua. He has many brothers, and he and Yinhu share the same Zhenglan Banner.

Not long after, Jingxi, the younger brother of Marhun, the king of Doroan County, submitted a booklet, telling the infantry commander Tuoheqi and his son to have a feast at the mansion during Marhun’s funeral. instance.

Kangxi still didn't make a statement, but looked at Yinreng with more serious eyes.

When Yinzhen heard what Yinxiang said about Tuoheqi, his face became very ugly. He gritted his teeth and sneered, "Let him make trouble, and he will suffer on his own. In the end, no one can save him. As for Kuixu, Ah Ling, you Although they didn't find anything in Baiweiju, they didn't stir up the wind and rain all over the city. If you dare to use me, why can't I use them."

In the increasingly tense situation and Kangxi's increasingly ugly face, in July 49, Kangxi toured outside the Great Wall.

Yinqi, Yinyou, Yinhu, Yinju, Yinzhen's retinue, Yinreeng Prime Minister's government affairs, Yinzhi, Yinzhen, all assisting from the side.

Yinzhen and Yinxiang were still left in Beijing, ignoring them.

In July, the weather was hot, and Yinzhen didn't bother to move, and fell asleep every day at the mansion.But Jiahui felt that the past two years were better than before, at least Yinzhen stayed at the mansion all the time, and occasionally, the whole family could go for a walk in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital.Hongjia is also less worrying, whether it is riding, shooting or boxing, he is one of the best among his peers.

In the evening of this day, He Yuzhu suddenly entered the house worried.

"Master Jiu, brother Hongjia hasn't come back, do you think it's time for someone to go to the palace?"

Jiahui, who was sitting next to Yinzhen, also stood up abruptly, looking at Yinzhen anxiously.Just as Yinzhen was about to speak, another person came in from outside, it was Wang Shun: "Jiu Ye, the Crown Prince sent someone over to invite you into the palace."

Yinzhen was taken aback for a moment, the only one who could stay in the palace now was Yinfeng who was in charge of the government affairs, what did he want from him?

The author has something to say: Cough, it’s late, I was wrong, TAT.But I didn't abuse Xiaojiu...

As for Kangxi, at his age, with a group of outstanding and covetous sons by his side, his judgment will be slightly affected.

But it will definitely come back...

PS: Changed the other words, and happy holidays ==!
