[Qing Chuan] No pet little promise

There is no signature on the note, but the familiar handwriting, and the precise grasp of what snacks I have, naturally there is no second person.

He still refuses to give up!

Wei Rong smiled wryly, this was already the third note she had received this month.

He should be able to see that he actually doesn't want to cooperate with him at all.

She could probably guess what Yinzhen was planning, but after weighing the pros and cons, she gave up.

It can be regarded as an end to this tangled relationship for her.

Putting the note next to the candle and lighting it, watching it burn to a mass of ashes, Wei Rong could only pray that there would not be another note to disturb her determination.

***

In the study of the East Palace.The prince flipped through a book of memorials, his expression was ugly.

The counselor stood in front, looked at his face quietly, and comforted him: "My elder brothers are all old, so it is right to have this canonization."

"No matter how old you are, can you outlive elder brother?" The prince sneered.

The memorial in his hand is the first draft drafted by the Ministry of Rites. Kangxi plans to confer the titles on the princes during the New Year's Eve.

Among them, the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother were all canonized as the county king, the fifth elder brother and the seventh elder brother were all named Baylor, and even the eighth elder brother, ninth elder brother, and tenth elder brother who were not yet adults received their salaries first, and were ready to choose a place Kaifu.

The prince was very annoyed. You must know that when the elder brother made solid military exploits, he was only named a county king. Later, he was promoted to be a prince because of compensation for "framing".

Huang Ama had been pressing the princes not to be canonized before, and the prince knew it was for his own position.

Now, they don't care about it, and directly canonize them wantonly. Even a disabled body like the seventh elder brother, and a young boy like the tenth elder brother have all been canonized.

What does this mean?It shows that he, the crown prince, is not as wholeheartedly maintained by the emperor as before!

I also remembered that above the court, the third elder brother had just received a grand award from the emperor for compiling the literature and history of the former dynasty.

And the fourth elder brother also won the emperor's diligent praise because of the inventory of the backlog of accounts in the household department.

Although the fifth elder brother was slightly inferior in academics, he was raised by the queen mother himself, and was praised by both the government and the public as a word of filial piety.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he was, the prince angrily threw the folder on the ground.

The staff quickly picked it up and persuaded him gently.

At this time, a subordinate came in and said, "Your Highness, there are clues to what you ordered me to investigate."

The prince cheered up, "What's the result?"

The subordinate reported: "I waited for many days to investigate, and I can confirm that this rumor first started from Donghua Building. Donghua Building is the property of Huang's family, a wealthy businessman in the east of the city."

The prince said with a cold face, "What is the origin of this Huang family?"

The Chen family and himself had a little bit of trouble, involving the privacy of the palace, at most they could exchange a few words among the courtiers, and they didn't dare to say it out loud.

After Huang Ama returned to the court, there was a lot of rumors, even in the market, there were allusions and discussions.Someone must have deliberately spread the news.So the prince arranged a manual investigation early.

The subordinate immediately said: "The Huang family is just a merchant. In the previous generation, there was a fellow Jinshi who served as the magistrate of Tongzhou. Now he has retired. His son is in charge of the family, and a granddaughter married into the third elder brother's house as a concubine."

really……

The prince laughed coldly, "What a lonely third brother!"

***

Since burning that note, Wei Rong never received a new one.

He already knew his choice.Although a bit sad, but the long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain.Wei Rong looked at the snowflakes outside the window and sighed.Fortunately, I didn't like him that much.

It's winter in a blink of an eye.The snow this winter came earlier than in previous years, rustling on the eaves and in the courtyard.

Someone's obsession is even more persistent than Wei Rong thought.

That night, listening to the sound of snow falling outside in the extremely quiet place, Wei Rong wrote two words in the study.Feeling sleepy, she put away her pen and ink and prepared to go to bed.

Suddenly, I heard a soft "click" from behind.

Turning around to look, a black figure rolled in from the window beside him and landed on the ground.

Wei Rong was about to exclaim, but the other party rushed up to cover her mouth, and a deep voice came from her ear, "It's me."

It's Yinzhen!

Wei Rong looked up at him in surprise.

The moonlight came in through the window, outlining the familiar Qingjun face, there were snowflakes on his shoulders, and even some ice had formed on his shoulders, it looked like he had been lingering outside for a long time.

Yinzhen turned around and closed the window to block the cold wind.

Wei Rong originally wanted to ask how he got in, but after thinking about it, the security of the Changchun Palace could not be called strict.

After closing the window, Yinzhen asked her with a straight face, "Why didn't you come to the appointment?"

Wei Rong felt a little guilty, he should have passed by several times, did he have to wait for a long time?

It's better to make it clear.

She looked away, "So what if I go?"

"Go and discuss the route to leave the palace." Yinzhen replied concisely.

"It's impossible!" Wei Rong directly denied.

She glared at Yinzhen, don't be too whimsical, okay, run away by herself, who will be responsible for the mess left in the palace.

Is he this sentimental?Could it be that the so-called calm and calm appearance in history is all fake.

Yinzhen smiled, and said softly, "Is that why you don't trust me?"

"For you to escape, of course it is a perfect plan."

Yinzhen calmly explained his plan,

"I found a woman who looks exactly like you. When I get married in the future, according to the rules, I will marry from Guo Luoluo's mansion, and I can exchange it." Relying on her invisibility technique, it was easy to complete.

In fact, the eldest brother's subordinates found the woman back then, and originally wanted to give it to Ce Wang as a gift, but later, with Wei Rong's better excuse, she didn't give it away.After the Prince Zhi's mansion ransacked her home, she was sold as an official slave and fell into Yinzhen's hands.

Anyway, what Ce Wang is greedy for is nothing more than a similar appearance.He is not familiar with Wei Rong himself, and he wouldn't be able to find out if it was another person.

To be honest, after hearing Yinzhen's plan, Wei Rong was really moved for a moment, but quickly rejected the plan.

For a strange woman who has never been in the court, it is okay to deceive her for a while, but it is too difficult to deceive her for a lifetime.

Once Ce Wang finds out that he has been deceived, it is unknown what will happen.The worst thing is that the two countries go to war again.

And Wei Rong couldn't let people like Yufu go.

"Even if you marry in person, he will realize that you are not his dead wife sooner or later." Yinzhen said.

"If you notice it, you will notice it, I am not." Wei Rong said as it should.

Yinzhen was speechless by her words.

His eyes lowered, and after a while, he suddenly said, "I don't mind."

Wei Rong: "Huh?"

"You are worried that you can't bear the consequences. There are three reasons. First, you are afraid of another war between the two countries. Second, you are afraid of hurting your family. Third, you are afraid of damaging my future.

The former is full of ambitions. Whether you are there or not, I am afraid that you will turn against the imperial court again in the future. As long as the imperial army is strong, you will naturally not be afraid.Second, even if Ce Wang finds out that the person is a fake and sends a document, the imperial court cannot verify it because they are thousands of miles away. They will only think that he is picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and it is impossible to implicate his family.As for the last, the so-called future... I don't mind. "

Yinzhen's tone was calm and clear, explaining the gains and losses one by one.

Wei Rong was dumbfounded, is this what it feels like to fall in love with a science student?

Well, she admitted, he had convinced both the first and the second.But the third.

The so-called don't mind!It's because you don't know what the future of the compromise is!

Yinzhen continued, "Do you still remember what we said on the bridge? You once asked me, if you encounter the same dilemma, choose between the person you care about and the future status. My The answer at that time is still the same today.”

His voice was low and hoarse, even pleading softly.

Wei Rong's heart trembled, and she almost agreed.

But in the end he hardened his heart.

"What you said is very good and very reasonable, but I still decided to stay in the palace. Thank you for these days, don't come here again."

She turned around and Yinzhen grabbed her arm.

"No, I don't allow it!"

Wei Rong: ...

She simply had a headache. Does the future Emperor Yongzheng have such a paranoid love mind? He is a deserted person, and he should be more rational and forbearing than himself.

She turned her head away from him, clearly showing her rejection.

Yinzhen stared at her blankly for a while, and finally said in a low voice: "You are really cruel."

Wei Rong turned her head to look, and met his deep and resentful eyes.

That gaze fell on Wei Rong's heart, and she felt dazed for a while.

When he came back to his senses, Yinzhen had already left.

Wei Rong walked over to the table and sat down absent-mindedly.

After a while, she smiled wryly and shook her head.

Who made himself Guo Luoluo Wei Rong instead of Niu Colu Wei Rong?

In fact, rejecting Yinzhen was not only for fear of endangering his throne, but also because of the deep fear of the future in his heart.

If you really marry him, he will become the emperor in the future, Sangong Sixth Courtyard, what should you do?Instead of letting this heartbeat become some kind of unbearable memory in the distant future, it is better to keep this beautiful thought.

Went to the Zhungeer Khanate, although it is also the emperor's harem, but there is no emotion, but there is no psychological burden, just be a good substitute for Bai Yueguang.

From this perspective, she is really a cruel person.

***

In the grove to the west of Changchun Palace.

Xiao Shengzi was so worried that he wanted to jump into the river.

After spending days and years waiting, finally a familiar figure came out.

Seeing that the fourth elder brother's face was uglier than the ice and snow on the ground, Xiao Shengzi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Regarding the matter of Wei Changzai becoming Guo Luoluogege, although the fourth elder brother never said a word, Xiao Shengzi could vaguely guess his plan from the various arrangements explained.

God bless you, fortunately Wei Changzai refused!

To be honest, a good person like Wei Changzai even saved his own life, and going to such a wild place to make love, Xiao Shengzi also felt that it was a flower stuck in cow dung.

But this is the emperor's will.If you dare to do something about it, if you are not careful, you will lose your head!

Fortunately, Wei Changzai understood the righteousness and rejected the master.

Even if the master is not willing, the fourth elder brother should give up too.Xiao Shengzi prayed secretly.

After entering the woods, Yinzhen slowed down his pace, turned his head to look, and there were snowflakes, which quickly covered the footprints he stepped on.

What I did today was almost unimaginable in my life in the past ten years, but when the matter came to an end, I did it so easily.

Yinzhen looked at the horizon, his eyes piercing the swirling snowflakes,

Cewang Allah Butan will come to the capital in March next year...

Since she was unwilling, she could only start from this direction.

There is always a shadow over my heart,

He is a person who believes in reincarnation, she and Ce Wang's wife... really have no connection?

***

After the beginning of winter, it has snowed a few times, and it will be the end of the new year in a blink of an eye.

The interrogation of elder brother Yinzhi also came to an end. Kangxi entrusted the entire errand to the third elder brother Yinzhi, and Yinzhi lived up to his expectations. Everything was exhausted, and all the investigations revealed the truth.

Since returning to the court, the third elder brother has become more and more outstanding in the court.Not only did he try the case of Big Brother's chaos, but he also participated in the compilation of the ancient books. Last month, he also put down a group of bandits in the southern part of the capital.

When the courtiers mentioned it, they all praised him for being both civil and military.

Recently, Kangxi also paid special attention to this excellent son and praised him many times.

This made the prince very unhappy.

Wei Rong was in the Changchun Palace, and occasionally heard the palace people talking about this, so she knew it in her heart.

The most fundamental reason why Kangxi supported the third elder brother was that he didn't want the prince to become powerful.

The emperor's mind, as he ages, will become more and more afraid of his young and vigorous son.

Even if the prince's power was created by him alone.

In the past, Kangxi could sit back and relax when the elder brother fought against the crown prince. Now that the elder brother has arrived in Taiwan, he can only support one of the remaining sons.

With the golden carrot of the throne hanging in front of him, the third elder brother may not have no intention of going further.

On this day, Yin Zhi met with him, and then talked about the follow-up of the elder brother's case, and reported a strange incident that came out of the trial.

"There is something dark in this palace, and it should be on Wei's body?" Kangxi's tone was full of disbelief.

When the evil animal was in control of the court, he wanted to plunder the Wei family and give it to Ce Wang. Later, because the Wei family was taken in by the concubine De, he couldn't find it, and even found some monks to search.When Kangxi heard about this later, he just thought it was the evil beast who was obsessed with it, and didn't think much about it.

The third elder brother explained, "This time when I interrogated the confidant of the traitor, it is said that Yinyi believed that the Wei family could transform into a spirit body invisible to the naked eye, wandering around in the palace, and it was difficult for ordinary people to find. That's why I found someone from the Buddhist sect Come search."

The third elder brother didn't know that Wei Rong was not dead. Compared with the rest of the elder brother's henchmen, this matter was just a trivial matter, so it was delayed until now to report it.

Kangxi's eyes became serious.

He didn't believe in these strange powers, but if the Wei family really had any secrets...she was going to marry a foreign country and get married. Although Zhungeer had been calmed down now, it was still a worry in his heart.
