Kuai Chuan's brother is the real boss

The case of the remaining party of the Tiandihui, after checking and checking the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, the news is that a group of reckless people are using the name of the Tiandihui to oppose the imperial court, so as to make profits here.

As for the officials in the court, the Criminal Ministry interrogated the name of "Shen Hong". Those people said that they knew Shen Hong's daughter, Shen Fangning. , that is his own problem.

Anti-Qing and Fuming, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were most taboo about these four words, and basically maintained an attitude of rather killing mistakes than letting them go. Now those people say that they are not really members of Tiandihui, but do they have the guts to pretend to be Tiandi Yes, you should know that Tiandihui is not tolerated by the court, and you should pay the price for your actions.

And Shen Hong is the fourth rank of the dynasty, not a big official, but not a small one, if it doesn't really matter, why do those people go to talk about his concubine daughter?

If it wasn't true, how would those people know the name of his concubine, so Kangxi thought it was true, and immediately summoned Shen Hong. , missing.

When Kangxi interrogated Shen Hong, Long Kedo was beside him, and the elder brother Yinti and the prince were also there. Everyone could see that Shen Hong didn't dare to deceive the emperor at this time, and he was telling the truth, but his concubine was true. If someone colludes with someone pretending to be Tiandihui, he can only be implicated by his daughter.

Although Kangxi didn't like people who shouted anti-Qing and Fuming, he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately. He just temporarily suspended Shen Hong and ordered him to stay at home.

This can be said to be indefinite. Long Keduo knew that he could not let Shen Fangning go out to meet people now, so Shen Hong might be hopeless in the officialdom.

"Although she's just a weak girl, it's almost a year. I'm afraid you can go anywhere in the world. Looking for someone is like finding a needle in a haystack. Huang Ama might as well deal with those rebels first. If that girl doesn't show up, Huang Ama Ma will spare her life extrajudicially, if she appears, it will not be too late for Huang Ama to arrest her."

Seeing that Kangxi was worried, the prince suggested, but Yinti didn't think this matter was so easy to solve, "Huang Ama, my son thinks the prince's method is inappropriate. Although the Ministry of punishment has already interrogated those people who are not the real remnants of the previous dynasty, then There must be a purpose for them to go to war like this."

"Huang Ama also saw it just now. Master Shen is shaking like a sieve. How can such a timid manipulate the whole thing? There must be other masterminds. Kill these people now, and if she captures Master Shen's concubine in the future If we deny it to death, we can't even come up with the certification. The prince is kind and wants to let Huang Ama spare a weak woman, but do you know the reason why the embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed by an ant's nest?"

"Huang Ama, my servant thinks that elder brother's method is inappropriate..."

The crown prince and Yinzhen defended each other with each other, one advocated killing those who are locked in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and reminded the world that now is the Qing Dynasty, the authority of the Qing Dynasty cannot be shaken, and the remnants of the previous dynasty have only a dead end. Even those pretending to be remnants of the previous dynasty are dead.

Yinti, on the other hand, advocates that the evidence is conclusive and the mastermind behind the scenes has been uncovered, and he does not believe that extrajudicial measures can be forgiven.

Both of them have their own reasons, and both of them are justified. Now let's see which side Kangxi prefers?

As for their quarrel, the officials of the previous dynasty also reported to the team, and there were all kinds of statements in the memorial, and the harem was naturally affected.

The concubines are fine, there is a palace rule that women are not allowed to participate in politics, so they dare not discuss it, but when you go to the study, the princes are different. The teacher even highlighted this topic of debate, letting the princes express their opinions.

Jiang Yan could see that this was what Kangxi meant, otherwise the teacher would not have dared to use such a sensitive matter as the previous court to make a question.

After knowing that they were not the real remnants of the previous dynasty, he was not in a hurry to deal with those people. After all, they were just young people who could not shake the foundation of the country. His two adult princes were arguing endlessly. He also wanted to see how these underage princes treated them. What do you think about this matter, let the princes go back and write an article for him tomorrow.

Jiang Yan was also among these princes, who made him a minor now, but he didn't take this issue very seriously, just wrote an article at random.

Unlike Jiang Yan, Yinzhen was very serious about this. The light in his room didn't turn off until midnight, and he got up and went to the study after less than an hour, which shows his hard work.

The teacher collected everyone's articles. Among these articles, Kangxi was most impressed by Yinzhen's one. Compared with the confident remarks of other princes, Yinzhen was much more peaceful.

"To be united for a long time is to be divided for a long time to be united for a long time. Nothing can last forever if the court changes. Only by focusing on oneself and not caring what others say. If the country is truly governed well, the people will be convinced."

Kangxi talked about the theme of Yinzhen's article, and his eyes fell on Yinti and the prince below, "Do you think Yinzhen's statement is correct?"

"The fourth brother's statement is naturally correct, but it's too ideal, and his words are a little too naive." The prince said, and then added: "But the fourth brother is still young, and he doesn't think much. "

Yinti didn't speak, but it was obvious that he had the same idea as the prince this time, and there were only four words to sum up Yinzhen - naive and childish.

If they didn't say that it was Yinzhen's article, they would still think it was Jiang Yan's. According to Jiang Yan's soft and affectionate temperament, writing like this fits well. It was in line with his usual serious and serious appearance.

Neither the crown prince nor Yinti noticed that there was a slight change in Kangxi's gaze on the two of them.

These sons of his have grown up too smoothly. They have been the proud sons of heaven since they were born. They have never experienced war and have extraordinary confidence in the national power of the Qing Dynasty. The evidence is conclusive', they are all based on the foundation of 'the strength of the Qing Dynasty', and think that how the situation will develop will be exactly as they expected.

Little did they know that there were still many variables in it, and even he, the emperor, might not be able to grasp those variables, let alone they were only princes.

At the same time, it is precisely because the variables cannot be grasped, the only thing that can be grasped is oneself. Yinzhen's article looks naive and naive, but it can hit the point. Self-cultivation is always the first thing.

The crown prince and Yinti are now putting all their attention on state affairs. How can they succeed if they don't cultivate themselves and their family is not in order and only want to govern the country and the world?

Fortunately for Kangxi, this question allowed the princes to write an article on this topic, otherwise these problems would not be apparent. Now that we know the crux, we can prescribe the right medicine.

And Kangxi also praised Yinzhen and gave rewards, but when talking about that article, Yinzhen said that Jiang Yan told him that, precisely because not every dynasty can last forever, so it can do a good job. only oneself.

"But your third brother's articles are mediocre, and they are all general talks. Could it be that he deliberately deceived me?" Kangxi asked intentionally.

Yinzhen's expressionless little face immediately became anxious, and he quickly knelt down, "Forgive me, third brother, he never lied to Huang Ama, maybe it's because third brother didn't think so much when he wrote the article. "

"You don't need to be nervous, I didn't blame your third brother." Kangxi pulled Yinzhen up, and had to say that Yinzhen was careful, pleading guilty every now and then, just like Concubine De, even if she wasn't by her side, she was still a mother and child.

However, Yinzhen's words caught Kangxi's attention after all. After Yinzhen left, he asked someone to call Jiang Yan. He really wanted to know that Yinzhen could be influenced by Jiang Yan, but why his articles were so mediocre. No wonder?He didn't believe that he didn't think so much as Yinzhen said.

"Fourth elder brother, it's time to go to Yonghe Palace. The Concubine De is still waiting." Seeing Yinzhen staring at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the little eunuch reminded him.

Yinzhen withdrew his gaze, got up and went to Yonghe Palace to pay respects to Concubine De, just now he heard that a little eunuch had gone to Elder Brother to invite Third Brother, he was a little annoyed that he had talked so much with Huang Ama, and he didn't know Huang Ama would The third brother will not be punished.

Secretly keep in mind that you must be cautious in your words and deeds, never say what you shouldn't say in the future, and think twice before you act for a long time.

Even though I told myself that, but I have something on my mind, I will be distracted after all, and I am a little absent-minded in Yonghe Palace.

Seeing him like this, Concubine De pointed out a plate of dim sum and asked the maid to put it in front of him, "Just now in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, did the Emperor criticize you?"

"No, Huang Ama didn't criticize his ministers." Yinzhen said.

"Then why are you so distracted? You might as well talk to Er Niang if you have anything to do."

Facing Concubine De's concerned gaze, Yinzhen opened his mouth and hesitated, but still told Concubine De about what happened in the Palace of Mental Cultivation, "Emiang, will I cause my third brother to be scolded by Huang Ama?"

"I don't know, the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and no one knows what the emperor thinks." Concubine De said truthfully, "You just need to remember that 'accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger', and you must be cautious when speaking and doing things around the emperor. , "The emperor's anger floated thousands of miles away" is not just a talk."

She came from a humble background, and it was because of keeping these two things in mind that she was able to get to where she is today step by step.

Yinzhen kept De Concubine's words in his heart. He had read these two sentences in books, but when he heard them from De Concubine, he felt that they were indeed related to the current emperor, his Huang Ama.

About half an hour later, Concubine De sent someone back to wait for news near the Hall of Mental Cultivation, "The third elder brother has come out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and went back to elder brother's place. I haven't heard the emperor's reprimand for third elder brother. Empress and Fourth Prince can rest assured."

Having said that, I still don't know what happened in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so Yinzhen hastily saluted Concubine De and said goodbye to Elder Brother.

Concubine De looked at the plate of snacks on the table that Yinzhen had unknowingly eaten half of, "If you're nervous, you'll eat unconsciously. This child finally has a bit of smoke."

I will be nervous, and it is no longer the appearance of Taishan collapsed before, not limited to sex, like a child.

"Isn't your empress worried about the third elder brother? What if the emperor really reprimanded the third elder brother?" Zhuxiu asked suspiciously. From the beginning to the end, Concubine De never asked Jiang Yan a word. She was obviously very concerned before.

"What's the use of worrying? You and I can change the emperor's order at will. If you know it's useless, you don't have to worry about it." Concubine De said casually. It's one thing to be worried, but another thing to know that you can't change it. Son, "Did someone send the snacks to Concubine Hui?"

"I've already sent it away. Concubine Hui said she likes it very much. Tomorrow, I want to go to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers with my empress." Zhuxiu said.

"Just send it."

Concubine De closed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, she turned into a calm and unwavering appearance again, with a gentle and virtuous appearance. The duty of a concubine is always in mind, and she can't make any mistakes.

On the other side, Yinzhen couldn't wait to go back to elder brother's house, and went directly to Jiang Yan's room, and what he saw was that Jiang Yan was playing chess with himself, holding black pieces in one hand and white pieces in the other.

"Third brother, are you alright?" Yin Zhen asked as he quickly closed the door.

"Do you think something is wrong with me?" Jiang Yan put the black stones in his hand into the chess box, "Since you are here, come play a game with me, and talk slowly if you have anything to say."

Yinzhen came to sit down opposite Jiang Yan, and couldn't help being startled when he saw the chess game on the chessboard. Calculating the time, it was only a quarter of an hour since he came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. How could such a complicated chess game have been played?

"Third brother, did you play this yourself?" The chess game is complicated, black and white pieces are restraining each other, now it's time for Heizi to play, but no matter how you play, it seems to be a dilemma, with no way out.

Similarly, the white pieces did not have much advantage, Yinzhen put the black pieces in the position he thought should be the most, the chess game instantly became a dilemma for the white pieces, but Yinzhen did not think that he had won the game.

"In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Huang Ama and I played a game of chess. This is the chess game. At that time, Huang Ama used black stones." Jiang Yan said slowly after dropping the white pieces.

Hearing this, Xu Zhen felt that the sunspots in his hands were hot, and subconsciously raised his head to look at Jiang Yan, "Holding a game of chess, Huang Ama won?"

"A tie, Huang Ama didn't win." Jiang Yan pointed to the place Yinzhen placed on the chessboard, "At that time, Huang Ama was also placed in your place, but I didn't intend to compete with the one I just placed in the Hall of Mental Cultivation." The location is the same."

As Jiang Yan put down the chess piece in his hand, Heizi's defeat was determined in an instant, and he had no power to fight back.

Yinzhen couldn't help but be speechless, "Third brother, you...you let Huang Ama use water?"

"It can't be said to be a release, but to respect him as his father, so he is willing to give in, but I don't want to lose, so I made a draw, but you are my younger brother, it's no big deal for me to win you, so the current chess game is here. "

Jiang Yan put the chess piece in his hand into the box, looked at Yinzhen and said, "Huang Ama knew about my move, but she didn't say it, so you don't need to say a lot of things, you know?"

"I know third brother, I will never talk nonsense in the future." This time he and Huang Ama talked too much.

"Sickness comes from the mouth, and disaster comes from the mouth. If you don't have to say it, try not to say it. Just do it with your own actions. People who know you will know the reason why you do those things." In the middle, facing the flames of war without gunpowder, the city in my heart is naturally established as soon as possible.

Today's chess game is very important to Yinzhen. This is the first time he knows that Jiang Yan's chess skills are so good that he can even master Huang Ama's chess game. When playing against Huang Ama, he can make the chess game end in a draw. He absolutely does not have that ability.

After this day, Kangxi asked people to start building a mansion for Jiang Yan outside the palace, and he had already arranged for him to be married. First, the person was settled, and the marriage could be done as soon as the filial piety of Queen Tong Jia passed.

Jiang Yan knew that he was powerless to stop him now, so he left everything to his fate, but he was still very happy to be able to go out of the palace to build a mansion. Although the palace wall can't stop him now, it is very troublesome to turn around at night, so he has to be careful be found.

That night, Jiang Yan came out dressed in black and came to a small alley. The person waiting here tonight was Shen Fangning.

Seeing Jiang Yan's attire, Shen Fangning couldn't help raising her eyebrows. She thought he would come out of the palace gate secretly, but now it seems that he probably came out of the palace in this attire. Is the palace wall so easy to overturn?Can you let him flip in?

"It's your skill to be able to escape from Longkodo's hands."

"It's a rare thing to live in, so naturally you can't die easily." Shen Fangning tightly grasped the dagger in her sleeve, "I know you are not the original third elder brother. Concubine De didn't have any children before she gave birth to fourth elder brother."

"If Concubine De has no children, how did I get here?" Jiang Yan asked back, "You think I am not the third elder brother, so tell me who I am?"

"You are from the 21st century." Shen Fangning said firmly, Jiang Yan must have come from the same place as her, otherwise he would not have seen through her.

"Is it the 21st century? I've only been there, but it's been a long time." After experiencing several ancient worlds, I don't know if the next world can experience some modern life with advanced technology.

Jiang Yan's words surprised Shen Fangning, she thought he just came from time travel, now he only said that he had been there, so he has been to more than one place?

Human beings are curious and full of fear in the face of the unknown. Shen Fangning can feel the strength of Jiang Yan, the kind of fear that scares her more than the death before crossing, the fear of the unknown.

"Who the hell are you?" Aliens?Alien civilization invasion?

Jiang Yan didn't know that Shen Fangning's thinking was strange. Maybe in Shen Fangning's eyes, he was unfriendly, and he couldn't be a cultivator at all, but he couldn't be blamed, because in his eyes, Shen Fangning was the one who killed his father and younger brother. What about women.

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore, today. You said you wanted to make a deal with me, but I'm not interested, so don't be angry about going on the road."

As Jiang Yan said, she took a step closer, and Shen Fangning backed away quickly, while pointing the dagger in her hand at Jiang Yan. This time she saw that Jiang Yan was wearing the injured ring, and there was already a sharp blade on it, even sharper than the dagger in her hand.

"You can't kill me, Longkodo won't let you kill me."

"But does Longkodo know that you are here? Who knows that I go out of the palace late at night."

Jiang Yan said, while waving his hand across, Shen Fangning raised the dagger to block it, the blade on the ring collided with the dagger, Shen Fangning only felt a numbness in his arm, the dagger fell off in his hand, and the eye of the dagger that fell on the ground was broken into two pieces, obviously It was cut by the blade on Jiang Yan's ring.

Jiang Yan looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, "Do you know why I didn't kill you when I was in the imperial mausoleum, but now I'm coming to kill you?"

"Because... Longkodo?!"

What Shen Fangning said was affirmative, because of Longkodo, because she wanted to tell Longkodo everything she knew.

There was a faint sound of footsteps outside, Shen Fangning would not have been unaware of it according to her keenness, but now she was immersed in the fear of Jiang Yan, which made her have no time to care about other things.

"Yes, it's because of Longkodo, you said something you shouldn't say, how can I keep you?"

"You want to use Longkodo and want him to continue helping the fourth elder brother, but I said that after he helps the fourth elder brother, the fourth elder brother will cross the river and demolish the bridge, so you want to kill me?"

This is the reason Shen Fangning can think of at the moment. According to what Jiang Yan said, he is so powerful that he definitely has no interest in being an emperor, so he just wants to make Yinzhen the emperor.

But vaguely, she felt that something was wrong, but the blade on Jiang Yan's ring had already reached her throat, so she had no time to think about it.

Jiang Yan really wanted to let Yinzhen ascend the throne and put everything on the right track, but Longkoduo already knew his end, and he completely trusted Shen Fangning, killing Shen Fangning now would not help, and he would not let Longkoduo go Help Yinzhen win the heir.

A countdown started silently in his heart, and when he counted to one, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, "Sir Brother, stop."

Longkodo's voice came, and he stepped forward and pulled Jiang Yan's arm, his eyes fell on the shiny blade on his ring, "You can't kill her."

Jiang Yan broke free from Longkodo's shackles, put away the blade on the ring, and the ring returned to the most ordinary ring in an instant. Longkodo recognized that it was a reward from the former empress dowager, so it was transformed by Jiang Yan himself. ?

"Didn't my uncle also say that this person is a witch before, and she wants to get rid of it but is afraid of being retaliated. Now I am the uncle who is in place to do it for me."

"You don't need to do it for me. She still has a use and can't die. When she is about to die, I will ask you to help kill her." Long Keduo ordered Shen Fangning to be taken down, and stood in front of Shen Fangning from the beginning to the end, not letting Jiang Yan Don't hurt her any more.

It wasn't until Shen Fangning was taken out that Longkodo breathed a sigh of relief, and he was no longer as nervous as before. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It really scared me to death, I won't do anything like this in the future." Fucked with you."

"What do you mean having sex with me? Obviously I am helping uncle." There is no way to gain the most favorability than saving a life.

Shen Fangning is not tempted by gold and silver, any external things can't move her, so the only way is to come and go.
