The first writer of Qing Dynasty

Why does Khan Ama think that the fourth brother can keep an eye on him?

Yinhu was puzzled, he had a headache when he saw the coffin face of the fourth brother.

It's not that he's afraid of the fourth brother, he's not afraid at all, he's really not afraid, he's just worried that the fourth brother is so sensitive that he can strip away all his disguises.

The crumbling Ba Gege managed to keep it, and Khan Ama stripped the "first meeting" again. Yinhu didn't feel ashamed in front of Junfu, because it was time to scratch the floor with his toes too many times. Already numb!

Khan Ama saw him disguised as a woman and took the future Fujin to Hualou, what face could he not lose?

But being ashamed in front of the fourth brother, Yinhu couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

Seeing Yinzhen's eyes fell on her, Yinhu straightened her back.

I'm not afraid of you!

Yinzhen didn't know when he learned to suppress his emotions, and he was especially able to suppress them, like a bastard.His taciturnity, willingness to do practical things, and reliable enough personality made Kangxi feel at ease.

Kangxi said: "I know that the fourth child has a more serious temper, and he is suitable to take care of Yinhu."

Didn't they both point to Baylor?

Kangxi then asked Yinhu's mansion to be next to Yinzhen's Sibeile mansion, so that they lived next to each other.

Yinhu felt a little dangerous, he hurriedly said: "I made an appointment with my ninth brother before, and lived next to him when the mansion was built."

Kangxi: "It's simple, let him live on the other side of you."

Yinhu understood the meaning of Khan Ama: In short, from today onwards, the two of you brothers are bound together, and ordinary people cannot separate you.

He knew in his heart that this matter was irreversible.

Kangxi waved his hand and asked the two of them to discuss in private.

Father Jun drove them away, and Yinhu could no longer stay here, and bid farewell to Khan Ama with his fourth brother, and the two walked out of Qianqing Palace side by side.

Yinzhen remained silent until he reached a place where there were few people outside the Qianqing Palace, he suddenly said: "Thank you, Eighth Brother, for today's matter."

Huh?

A question mark appeared in Yinhu's head.

After Yinzhen thanked him, he stopped explaining, and asked Yinhu sternly: "At the court meeting today, the Ministry of Criminal Justice put 'Chu Jian' on the wanted list, and Khan Ama said that there is no need to arrest people. You are concerned."

Yinhu nodded with a listless expression.

"you……"

Yinzhen wanted to speak but stopped.

This time, the eighth brother can't figure out the boss's trap, cut off the money in his hand, and put the subordinate merchants who need it in prison.

The prince has always wanted to cut off the boss's way of making money, but he still can't grasp his tricks. The merchant is as slippery as a loach, and he knows how to hide it.

Who would have known that in the end it was the "first sight" that broke the good thing and caused the loach to capsize in the gutter?

When the prince learned about this, he laughed three times, and his unhappy mood has improved a lot recently.

In short, he is happy to see the boss is unlucky.

When he learned from Han Ama that "Chu Jian" was the eighth younger brother, Yinzhen was very surprised.

In other words, it was Yinhu who cut off the boss's wealth. Aren't they brothers and sisters in harmony?

Khan Ama also said, "If the boss knows, Yinhu will not escape a beating."

When Father Jun mentioned this matter, his brows stretched, and there was no sign of anger, which meant that what Yinhu did did not make him angry, but made Khan Amma feel happy.

But on the surface Yinti belongs to elder brother Yinti, and he "betrayed" elder brother, why should Khan Ama be happy?

If all of this was not instigated by Khan Ama, it was because of what the boss did that displeased Khan Ama, and what Yinhu did was just in line with Khan Ama's wishes.

Yinzhen's thoughts turned and turned, instead of pointing out the matter, he sighed, "It's not easy for you."

Yinhu had two more question marks.

Since I don't know what kind of charades Fourth Brother is playing, why not just say: "Fourth Brother is having a bad day recently?"

Yinzhen said slowly: "Since the brothers have sealed Baylor, the prince is not very happy."

The eldest brother and the third brother are crowned as county kings, and the fourth to eighth brothers are all Baylors. The six brothers have grown up, and the position of the crown prince is a challenge.

In addition, the accounts of the Hesheli family were checked, and the prince was a little anxious.

Yinzhen didn't mention what kind of loss he had suffered, but after a few words, Yinhu had already realized it.

"Forget it, don't mention that, let me see what the eighth brother wrote first."

Yinzhen was quite curious about how he got himself on the most-wanted list, and even pulled out the literary prison.

Yinhu recalled what he wrote, and quickly reminded Yinzhen: "Why don't you start with the most famous "Ten Years"?"

"'First Seeing' has four works in total, "Ten Years", "Missed", "Success", and "The Evil Emperor's Abandoned Concubine". Although it is the last work that caused trouble, the first three works are rare masterpieces. "

Yinhu strongly hinted at Yinzhen: If you just watch the last work, you may not be able to bear it.

Yinzhen had no doubt about him, and nodded: "I will watch it all."

His Baylor Mansion has been completed, and the first couple to get married after the draft is Yinzhen, who is the Ulanala family.

The Ulanala family and Yinzhen are all decent people, they are in charge of the family, respect the Buddha, be filial to the concubine De, and restrain concubines and servants.

She has a characteristic that is rare among noble ladies in the capital today: she does not read scripts.

The style of reading story books has become popular in the capital in recent years, but it was not the case in the past few years. When Wu Lanara reached the right age, her family deliberately raised her up, so that she could be a high-ranking wife in the future. I didn't have time to read the storybook.

Just like the prince did to his concubine Guerjia, he watched the house fight of "The Queen of Shang" himself, but he asked the princess to watch it.As for Yinzhen, he himself doesn't read scripts very much, and talking with Fujin is also about serious business. The relationship between the husband and wife is about respecting each other as guests.

Don't be funny, Yinzhen doesn't have that kind of love.

After he returned home, he first watched "Ten Years". From this point of view, the sky was bright and bright, and it was almost dusk.

"Master, Fujin sent someone to ask you if you haven't had lunch yet?"

Yinzhen was silent for a moment, sniffed, and said calmly, "I'll go eat at her place later."

Su Peisheng raised his head in surprise, glanced briefly, and was surprised to find that the sockets of Grandpa's eyes were a little red, and there was still some suffocated water!

On the table, "Ten Years", "Missed", and "Complete" have all been turned over.

Yinzhen thought about it for a while, and wanted to have a meal to relax, and then come back to read the fourth book "Evil Emperor".

When Ulanara came to welcome Yinzhen, he had already settled down the mood that had been aroused by the three volumes of story books before.

He also sighed with Su Peisheng: "The eighth younger brother's writing style is getting better and better."

A few words mobilize the emotions of the audience, but the simple words make people feel the sadness welling up in their hearts. The eighth brother's writing skills are much better than those in previous years.

After reading those three story books, people have a sense of the impermanence of the world. No one knows what will happen in the future, and they can only cherish the people in front of them.

Cherish the people in front of you...

Yinzhen's changes are very subtle, so subtle that Ulanara couldn't notice it at the beginning, that is, the master who didn't care much about family affairs before started to intervene, and the husband and wife had more discussions behind closed doors. More opportunities for communication.

Although she was surprised that Grandpa has become careful, people who were very careless in some places have changed. She likes this change, because Grandpa gave her a chance to communicate with him. This kind of change is for this family. It is good.

Yinzhen talked to her and told her roughly: I have a good relationship with the eighth brother. Khan Ama said that the eighth brother's Baylor Mansion is built next to us, so it is convenient for me to take care of it.

Don't be surprised if the eighth younger brother comes to the mansion to look for him.

Ulanara nodded in response, secretly wondering.

The emperor asked the master to take care of the eighth elder brother?

But eighth brother, isn't he always well-known in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he is gentle and calm, so why should he take care of him?

When Kangxi said that he took care of the fourteenth brother, he could tell clearly, but when he said that he asked Yinzhen to take care of Yinhu, it made people feel confused.

After eating, Yinzhen and Wulanara took a slow walk in the courtyard to digest their food, and the husband and wife talked about what they would buy in the mansion in the future.After waiting for half an hour, he returned to the study, thought about it, and ordered someone to take the three books he had read to Fujin.

"Just let her pass the time in her spare time. The three works written by the eighth brother are fascinating and rare."

Su Peisheng said with a smile: "If you can get a good compliment from the master, it can be seen that Brother Ba is very good at writing."

Ulanara was still surprised when he received the scriptures from Yinzhen, and couldn't help laughing when he saw that there were three volumes including "Ten Years".

"My family sister cried to me a few days ago, saying that "Ten Years" was written so well, I didn't expect my father to read this script as well."

She has obviously heard of the famous name of "Ten Years", and she also knows that it is a tear-jerking script.

The big servant girl covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "The master gave it to Fujin, so he must have seen it himself."

Ulanara couldn't imagine Yinzhen's reddened eyes, and she was surprised that the master would read this script.

She smiled and flipped through the pages when she had nothing to do.

Seeing these three scripts, Ulanara couldn't help guessing the intention of the master.

In fact, the master is not so cold on the surface, is he?

Was he trying to tell her something?

She imagined how her grandfather's eyes were moist while reading the storybook, and secretly laughed.

On the other side, he picked up the book "The Evil Emperor's Abandoned Concubine in the Cold Palace" that caused a big storm in the capital.

Yinzhen commented: "Looking at the name, it is not serious. The eighth brother deliberately wrote this script badly."

He has already given up hope for this book, and it can attract so many people to scold it, which shows that it will not be a good work.

Holding "just looking for any wrong words", Yinzhen opened this poisonous book.

Serving the evil king, tortured for seven days and seven nights!

Xie Wang: The princess actually drugged me, then I will make your life worse than death.

Yinzhen:"……"

It's not that it's not, the concubine's medicine is not enough, the reaction of the evil king is like a child with a mental deficiency.

After quickly flipping through the plot, his eyes were already crowded together, and his brows were frowned in disgust. At the end, he glanced at it with small eyes.

Take out your heart and kidneys, what? !

Seeing his son killing his father, he was not surprised at all.

He was already numb, he just felt that anything written in this nonsense book was possible, even if Yinhu wrote about a son forcing his father, Yinzhen would not be so surprised.

"The boss's subordinates, did they sell this work without looking at it?"

Yinzhen felt incredible.

Can this kind of nonsense nonsense script be designated as "anti-book"?

This is an insult to anti-books!

"It's hard for Mr. Wu," Yinzhen said helplessly, "The eighth younger brother just wrote it all in order to drag the boss into the water. Poor Mr. Wu carefully checked this book from beginning to end in order to solve the case."

He felt his stomach churning after watching it once, and he was about to spit out the meal he had eaten before, not to mention Wu Fan who had watched it several times?

Yinhu easily went to the House of Internal Affairs to report to Prince Yu. After leaving the palace to build a mansion, he would not have to go to study in the study room. He would go to the imperial court every day and then go back to his mansion.

He also took time to take a look at the mansion under construction, and made some designs according to his own wishes for the craftsmen to make together. He wanted to build three secret rooms in his study, two tunnels, and dig a connection under the garden. The secret passage outside!

Heaven and earth, he mentioned everything he could think of.

The three secret rooms require a large secret room, a medium secret room, and a small secret room inside the middle secret room. There are not many hidden compartments required, a dozen or so are enough. The premise of digging secret passages is that they are safe and cannot collapse, so special personnel must be hired to calculate them. .

The craftsmen sent by the work department were only responsible for building the outside and the big secret room. For the rest, Yinhu sent his subordinates to find craftsmen and asked them to make half of the hidden compartments.

The design of the final small secret room mechanism and the rest of the hidden room Yinhu were done by Li Duofu himself.

The bed is a secret door, and after opening it is the passage.

The bookshelf can be pushed in, and people can be brought in by turning a full circle.

There is a hidden hole behind the portrait. Under the kitchen stove, if the fire is extinguished and the firewood is removed, there will be another secret passage.

And so on, Li Duofu was so moved that tears filled his eyes, because of his trust in him, he wished to show his loyalty with all his heart.

Yinhu said: "With the secret channel, I won't let the fourth brother find out when I go out disguised as a woman!"

Li Duofu: "..."

Because Yinhu often went to supervise the construction of the mansion, the ninth younger brother Yinhu couldn't help but want to come out to see.

Yinhu comforted him in a gentle voice: "When my mansion is completed, I will take my ninth brother to play. Now it is a mess, and I can't see anything when I go to see it. Instead, I have a mouth full of ashes."

Yinhu thought about it too, and reminded Yinhu with winks: "Myna, don't forget what you promised us before. When your mansion is built, we will be guests and take us to 'there' to play."

Yinhu's smile froze, and he said helplessly, "You haven't forgotten about it yet!"

"I won't forget, even if I forget, there will still be ten younger brothers who will remind me," Yinzhen smiled triumphantly.

Yinhu looked around, and whispered to him: "As long as I can avoid the fourth brother, I will take you there."

Upon hearing Yinzhen's name, Yinzhen's face immediately collapsed.

"It's really disappointing. I can see him everywhere, and I get angry when I see him."

Yinhu also heard Yinhu's muttering, and he could only smile to smooth things over: "Okay, my brothers, we can help each other if we live closer together."

"Whoever wants to help each other with him, I hate him when I see him, and it's almost as good as walking around him."

When Yinzhen mentioned Yinzhen, he was filled with disgust and malice, the surging black air, and the gloomy eyes made people tremble with fear.

He has shown this emotion of wanting to kill Yinzhen more than once in front of Yinhu, perhaps because he feels in his heart that starlings can be trusted and can relax in front of him.

"Ninth brother can't say this anymore, it's not good for others to hear." Yinhu's eyes flickered, and he was a little worried about Yinhu, and persuaded him warmly.

"Why, I'm not afraid of him, so what if people hear it..." He looked like he was about to draw out his knife and stab Yinzhen twice, viciously and fiercely.

"If people hear it, they will misunderstand that you are acting like a baby with fourth brother, and you did it deliberately to attract his attention," Yinhu said slowly.

Yinzhen was stuck, his dark eyes closed, and he was as dull as a frog. He jumped up: "What caught his attention, I want to draw his attention? Are you kidding me?"

Yinhu smiled and patted his head: "Ninth brother's temperament is like a cat, which is very interesting."

Yinzhen became angry, his face turned red, and he said angrily, "It's almost as if I have attracted the attention of myna!"

Yinhu: "..."

Yinzhen: "..."

Yinhu: "I have Fujin, we are still good brothers."

Yinzhen: "Don't get me wrong, I regard you as my elder brother!"

The two of them looked at each other for a moment, and Yinhu narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Ninth brother, have you read the last two chapters of "The Enemy"?"

Yinzhen's reaction was so fast, no one would believe him if he said he had never seen it!

Previously, he was still young and Yinhu hadn't poisoned him, so who would have expected him to go and see it by himself.

If it wasn't for letting him show his feet today, Yinhu would not have known that he had such an ability to get the "banned book".

"Mynah didn't watch it too," Yinzhen said not to be outdone.

The only one who hadn't seen it, Yinji, scratched her head in confusion: "What are you talking about? I just dozed off, why are you arguing?"

Yinhu had an intuition that there was something he didn't know, and asked him seriously: "Have you managed contacts outside the palace?"

"You haven't even left the palace, where did you get your connections?"

The ninth brother actually had someone under his nose!

Yinzhen didn't hide it from him, and explained: "Brother, do you still remember that I suffered from ear ulcers and high fever when I was young?"

Yinhu thought about it, and there was indeed such a thing.

"At that time, the imperial physician Lu Yidao came to treat me," Yinzhen explained: "He is not from the Qing Dynasty."

He was talking about a missionary who was proficient in surgery and was in charge of the intelligence records of the Minister of Health. Luidao was from the Austrian Habsburg dynasty and was a Jesuit.

Yinhu thought about it: "It's the surgeon who is at odds with the imperial physician? If I remember correctly, this person is the first doctor sent by Khan Ama after he made a request to the Jesuits. He learned from us in the imperial hospital. There are many techniques of Chinese medicinal herbs."

So since he is here, Khan Ama will not let him go.

"Yes."

Yinzhen said: "I got to know Mu Jingyuan because of him, and I saved him."

Mu Jingyuan, a missionary from Portugal.

In the early years, these foreign missionaries who came to work in the Qing Dynasty were actually holding their posts with their heads up. When the late emperor was there, Yang Guang first wrote "Repelling Evils" and scolded Tang Ruowang for "using the Qing Dynasty's calendar to expand its Western countries, so that all countries in the world Xiaoran knows the Zhengshuo of the Qing Dynasty who served the West (1)"

Later, he wrote a letter denouncing him for "conspiring to rebel, heresy to confuse the public, and the calendar is absurd". Obai and others all agreed to sentence Tang Ruowang to death. Nan Huairen, who is being favored by Khan Ama. (2)

The emperor's uncle once said that these missionaries' coming to the Qing Dynasty is actually a good thing and a bad thing. With them, the emperor can learn about the outside world. What they do, such as adopting orphans, helping the widows and the elderly, and helping women, are all good things and attract people. do good things.

But if it expands its influence to the extent that preaching threatens the stability of the Qing Dynasty, then the butcher's knife hanging above their heads will immediately fall down and kill them.

Khan Ama was very interested in Western learning, including astronomy and calendar, mathematics, and the study of things. There were also missionaries from the West in the Qing Dynasty.

But whether those missionaries have evil intentions, and whether they will seek benefits for the church behind them, the emperor's uncle can see clearly, and Khan Ama is not ignorant.

None of the missionaries involved in the struggle of the Qing imperial family ended well.

In this exchange of interests, Khan Ama always holds the sovereignty. He declares his authority as the emperor, giving status to whoever he loves, and whoever hates him will plummet.

For example, Mu Jingyuan's official position is lower than that of Bai Jin and Zhang Cheng, so low that he is struggling, and Yinzhen can save him a miserable situation.

Yinhu listened to Yinyu talking about Mu Jingyuan's contacts in the capital and the Western knowledge he shared with him, which aroused his interest in making inventions involving chariots, and through the contacts of his mother's family and Mu Jingyuan, he went outside. Opened a shop, business is pretty good.

Yinhu: "..."

As expected of the ninth brother, he has a business mind since he was a child.

Yinzhen said again: "When I grow up, I want to be a businessman and make a lot of money!"

He laughed and teased Yinhu: "Then come and raise mynah."

The reaction of ordinary people, hearing that he has such ambitions, has already persuaded him, "He is not doing his job properly as a businessman, and the emperor will be angry and reprimand you."

Yinhu is not easy to be fooled: "If you want to raise robins, you can sell them on the street for a tael of silver."

He explained with a smile: "The common name of robin is starling."

Yinzhen told him that he was confused.

And this thing?

Yinqi asked him: "Don't the eighth brother stop the ninth brother?"

"Why should I stop it? I write scripts myself, so why should I stop Jiudi from becoming a businessman?"

Yin Qu suddenly realized.

"That's right, Myna is rushing ahead of me, why should I worry about it?"

Yinzhen hooked shoulders with Yinyu carelessly: "Don't worry, tenth brother, if you want to scold Khan Ama, scold myna first."

Yinhu shook his head and said: "Your brother can't take it anymore, don't you wish Khan Ama scolded me!"

While the three of them were laughing and laughing, Yinzhen came to find Yinhu, and Yinhu, who was in a good mood before, suddenly turned his face into a long face.

Yinzhen doesn't pay attention to naive ghosts, and the ninth brother doesn't like him, so can he still post it?

They both have tempers, so it's better not to meet each other, lest they look disgusted and people will see that they are not friends and brothers are disrespectful.

Yinzhen told him: If you still come next door to see Jianfu in the evening, you might as well come to my place for dinner.

Yinhu said with a smile: "The younger brother thanked the fourth brother in advance for taking care of him."

Yinzhen hummed lightly, and didn't stay for long, the relationship between the eighth brother and the three brothers was harmonious, but the atmosphere became stiff when he got close, and he knew that the ninth brother was pushing him out, so Yinzhen didn't stay and suffer wronged.

This ninth brother has been abnormal since he was a child, and it is a waste of affection to get angry with him.

Yinhu repeated going to court every day, went to Guangshan Library to do some leisure work, to do the official duties that the minister in charge of health affairs had to deal with every day, went to Fuzhong to supervise the construction in the evening, and read scripts and operas in the evening.

His writing and writing a few days ago hurt himself, and finally he didn't have to hand in manuscripts to the emperor's uncle, and he didn't have to send manuscripts to his elder brother. Yinhu, like a tired pigeon, went back to his nest and squatted to rest. .

He doesn't write by himself, but he enjoys watching the drama before going to bed at night, and even learned a new word called "best friend"!

At the end of the year, due to flooding in the Dongyue Temple, Kangxi ordered Fuquan, Prince of Yinhu Xieyu, to rebuild the Dongyue Temple.Because of this, Prince Yu Fuquan praised Yinhu very much. Seeing that he was neither arrogant nor impetuous, he was modest and respectful. When Kangxi asked about it, Prince Yu praised Yinhu, "Don't be boastful, smart and capable, virtuous and talented (3). "

Of course, this was not what Kangxi wanted to ask, so he brought Yinzhen to ask again.

Yinzhen replied: "The eighth brother's daily activities are the same as the previous day, and no one else invited him, but today the eighth brother's mansion was built, and he invited the ninth and tenth brothers to play at the mansion."

Kangxi didn't doubt it, and let Yinzhen go back.

Yinzhen secretly wondered: Except for writing scripts, the eighth younger brother is gentle and courteous at other times, why Khan Ama always thinks that he will do something out of character?

The carriage returning to the mansion went outside the Sibeile Mansion, and just as Yinzhen opened the curtain, he saw a carriage parked outside the Babeile Mansion next door. The carriage moved and drove forward slowly.

Yinzhen narrowed his eyes and told the coachman, "Go and follow them."

The author has something to say: Notes (1) (2) are taken from the Baidu entry Tang Ruowang, and the words in "..." are taken from historical records

Note (3): Taken from Baidu Encyclopedia Yinhu, Prince Yu praised Yinhu
