Yinti went back to his residence in good spirits after Yinshi passed, and when he heard people around him report that the Fourteenth Lord really took the "gift", he smiled helplessly, with a knife on his head... okay He really has no position to say that to others.

Because of too much "toil", Yinreng didn't get up until almost Chen's hour, his whole body was sore and weak, and he couldn't help scolding someone from head to toe in his heart, and asked someone to fetch water to wash his body and finally healed up.

It was already two quarters of an hour when he cleaned up and drank leisurely to greet Kangxi with his breakfast.

But there are others later than him.

Yin Zhen also happened to go out, and bumped into Yin Reng on the veranda outside the yard. Although he was not happy, he still had to greet him politely.

Yinfeng raised his eyes, looked at his refreshed appearance, and laughed lightly, "Your fourteenth brother looks very energetic, doesn't he?"

Yinzhen replied to him calmly: "The sun is good today, it's warmer than it was cold a few days ago, and people are much more comfortable."

Yinfeng curled his lips, didn't say anything more, strode away with him.

The guards following behind reported to him in a low voice, saying that the "gift" came out of the Fourteenth Master after the fourth watch, and then they let it go back, but there were always people watching.

Yinfeng smiled, didn't say much, and went straight to Kangxi.

After greeting Kangxi, the group set off to board a boat at Yuanjiakou.

Yinti opened the car window and looked forward, Yinfeng personally waited on Kangxi to get on the dragon chariot before returning to his own car later, his eyes wandered over inadvertently, and he met him.

Thinking of the sultry scenes last night, Yinti's pupils narrowed slightly, he licked his lips lightly, and subconsciously showed a smile of unknown meaning at Yinfeng.

The response he got was a loud 'bang' when Yinrong stepped into the car and slammed the door hard.

……never mind.

It took about half an hour to travel from the hotel where they stayed to the pier where they boarded the boat, and Yinfeng's premonition that there would be a lively and exciting show that he had been having since the morning was finally verified when the large army passed through the Zhizhou Yamen.

When the emperor went on tour, the pre-determined route had to be cleared along the way, or even if the officials, civilians and gentry came to greet him, they would have to be heavily guarded. But this time, because he was rushing to board the ship, he naturally did not conduct a large-scale investigation. It was all cleared up, so Kangxi was a little surprised when officials suddenly came up and down the road to report that they were going to change the road. Shouts and fights.

So he frowned immediately: "What's going on?"

The official kneeling on the ground trembled: "No...it's okay, the servants will deal with it properly, the emperor put...don't worry..."

Kangxi ignored him, ordered people to stop the car, and sent the guards and ministers around him to find out what happened. After a quarter of an hour, he was rewarded, saying that a large group of villagers had come to Zhizhou Yamen to beat drums and cry for grievances, and cried out that the two of them Daughter, the eldest daughter was robbed two years ago and said that she was sent to the capital to serve those court officials, and her whereabouts are unknown. The younger daughter suffered the same bad luck two days ago, and was released this morning crying. When they came back, they said that they were ruined by the nobles from Beijing, and they were looking for death at home. They were so angry that they went to the Yamen to complain, and then the Lord Zhizhou was not there, and other officials refused to show their faces, but came out for a while. Help the thugs and beat them half to death.

Under Kangxi's stare, a group of magistrates were so frightened that they knelt down on the ground to plead guilty. Kangxi didn't care if such a thing happened under the watchful eyes of everyone, so he immediately ordered Zhizhou Wang Tai to go to the hall to accept the case.

In order to make a gesture, Kangxi also stayed to listen in person, and everyone could only follow him. As soon as the victim who was brought up and was crying and dying knelt down on the court, Yinzhen's face changed. He gritted his teeth angrily and lowered his head.

Yinti almost laughed out loud when he saw it, and whispered to Yinreng who was standing a little ahead of him: "Fortunately, you were not the one who accepted this 'gift' last night."

It is already clear what the people behind this are planning. The crown prince has just been deposed and reinstated. If there is such a prostitution scandal of robbing civilian women in public at this time, all the officials in the court will be destroyed. You can imagine what people think of him.

It happened that when the emperor left on the road, he went to the yamen to complain and make a big fuss. If he said that he was not prepared to be instigated by others, who would believe it.

Yinfeng sneered, his eyes fell on the princes standing opposite, and he swept them one by one without any trace. Except for Yinzhen who was a little nervous and remorseful, everyone else was calm and composed.

The girl kneeling on the ground intermittently said that she was snatched from her home by the government a few days ago, and she was asked to serve the dignitaries from Beijing. Someone took her there, and she was raped all night, and was released after the Yin hour. She felt that she had no face to live on, and would rather die. In the end, her father was so angry that she brought a group of relatives and neighbors with her. Sue to the Yamen.

Kangxi frowned even more when he heard that, and immediately regretted that the case should not be tried in such a public manner. He had a hunch that the result of the next trial would definitely not be what he wanted to hear and would be embarrassing to the old man matter, but now the case is halfway through the interrogation, and the courtroom is full of people watching the excitement, so he can't stop it halfway.

Wang Zhizhou's brow was covered with cold sweat, he pretended to be calm, and asked her: "What noble person did you say you were ruined by last night? What kind of noble person is it? Do you recognize it?"

The girl cried and shook her head: "Those people call him Lord, and he calls himself Lord..."

Then she spoke with tears in her eyes and began to look around at the clan members and officials who were watching in the courtroom.

All the people are angry and annoyed, dare they all become suspects? !

Yinfeng glanced at Wang Zhizhou indiscriminately, but the other party seemed to have noticed it, knowing it, and asked calmly again: "Did you recognize anyone?"

If you offend someone, just offend him. Anyway, just don't offend the prince right now.

The girl bit her lip and lowered her head, but pointed her finger at Yinzhen: "It's him."

There was an uproar, whether it was in the courtroom or outside the courtroom, the officials and the people were all talking about it.

Fifteen and 16 next to Yinzhen retreated to the side at the same time, fearing that Chi Yu would be hurt, Yinzhen's face turned pale, and Yinhu frowned slightly when he looked at him, a little surprised.

The premonition became a reality, and Kangxi was immediately annoyed, glaring at him angrily, but he was really annoyed to ask questions in public because of this kind of thing.

Wang Zhizhou wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, glanced at Yinfeng, saw him sitting calmly drinking tea, and saw that Kangxi was annoyed, but still did not interrupt, as if he wanted to continue the trial, he calmed down a little, cleared his mind. Clearing his throat, he said to Yinzhen: "Brother Fourteen, can I ask you a few words?"

Yinzhen stood up with a dark face, staring at Wang Zhizhou as if he was going to eat him.

Wang Zhizhou looked away a little guilty, and asked him, "Is what she said true?"

Yinzhen gritted his teeth and said, "This girl, isn't this a 'gift' from you, Wang Zhizhou?"

There was an uproar again.

Wang Zhizhou was so startled that he almost fell off his chair. First, he patted the gavel twice to make everyone quiet, and seeing Kangxi's face became more and more ugly after hearing this, he quickly got up and got down, and knelt down in front of Kangxi.

"Your Majesty, I do have something to say about this matter."

"You said."

"Last night in the middle of the night, the hotel did indeed send a girl to Weichen's place, and also escorted one of Weichen's masters, who said that he was passing on the words of the prince, so that Weichen should calm down and don't play tricks. Doing things that shouldn't be done, I don't know why, but the person who sent the message will know that it is the master of the Weichen who pretended to be the name of the Weichen and gave it to several masters. After a while, Weichen was so frightened that he quickly let the girl go, but with the Fourteenth Master... Weichen didn't expect that he would really keep her."

Hearing that Yinreng was involved in the matter, Kangxi's face became even more stinky, Yinreng Shi Shiran stood up, and also stood up, reporting: "There is such a thing, Erchen was ready to go to bed at that time. After getting off, someone came to knock on the door, saying that Lord Zhizhou sent a gift to my son. The person who came claimed to be the master of Wang Zhizhou, and sent a beautiful girl to my son. These days, my son has been listening to the emperor's words to cultivate one's character and keep one's body upright. Qingxin, who dared to accept such a gift, immediately sent someone to send it back, and also sent someone to take the master back. Later, Wang Zhizhou sent someone to plead guilty to the minister, saying that he didn't know the matter, But I will find out and give my son an explanation, but I thought it was not a big deal, so I didn't mention it to you, the emperor."

Wang Zhizhou, who sang with Yinfeng, went on to say: "After the people sent by the crown prince left, the minister was annoyed and interrogated the master, why did he do such a thing in the name of the minister, and he refused to answer. Just now, my minister has sent someone to bring him under custody, and I have asked the emperor to interrogate him personally, and return my minister's innocence."

The master who was escorted to kneel on the ground faced all kinds of masters in the room, especially the emperor, and was so frightened that he was trembling from the moment he entered the door. Kangxi interrogated him in person and signaled Yinreng to act on his behalf, and Yinreng sat on it. Just now Wang Zhizhou took the seat and asked him: "Who ordered you to give me some gifts in the name of Lord Zhizhou?"

"Caomin...Caomin didn't give gifts to Fourteenth Master, Caomin only gave you..."

"Master asked you to answer!" Yinfeng knocked on the gavel: "Who in the world instructed you to give gifts in the name of Wang Zhizhou!"

Yinfeng looked at the person kneeling on the ground like a bereaved dog, his eyes were full of coldness, if he hadn't been highly vigilant and sent the person to the old fourteen and then made a string with Wang Zhizhou, otherwise if he was really hurt last night After this ceremony, today's commotion, his reputation has been completely ruined, Wang Zhizhou instigated this master to kill him, he also can't explain it.

"Yes...it's Mr. Tongzhi!" As soon as Yinfeng threatened him, the master immediately recruited them all.

The Tong Zhi, who was the adjutant of Zhizhou, immediately knelt down on the ground, and shouted his innocence with a little guilt: "My minister is wronged, not my minister..."

"Drag people down and leave them for disposal."

Without waiting for Yinfeng to ask again, Kangxi suddenly spoke.

Yinfeng twitched the corners of his mouth slightly. Kangxi made it clear that he didn't want to continue the trial. This little fellow confidant pretended to be the prefect to trick them princes when he was full. Kangxi obviously didn't want to make the matter more and more embarrassing under the watchful eyes of all the people and completely lose the face of the royal family, so he directly let the acquaintance take the blame and closed the case.

So Yinfeng could only follow his words.

At the end of the public interrogation, Kangxi drove everyone away and left Yinreng and Nazhizhou alone. He asked Yinreng angrily, "You really didn't know about this beforehand?"

Yinfeng asked him back: "Is the emperor suspicious of my son? This incident clearly shows that someone deliberately wanted to ruin his reputation. Is it possible that the emperor still doubts his son?"

Kangxi pointed to Wang Zhizhou who was kneeling on the ground, and asked him sharply: "Do you dare to say that this person has never done this kind of thing for you in these years?! Or why do you use such dirty things for nothing else? Framed you?! What did the villagers who complained first say about the eldest daughter who was sent to Beijing to serve the officials?! How dare you say you don’t know?!”

The corners of Yinfeng's mouth twitched slightly: "About that matter, my son really knows about it, and I just confirmed it with others, does the emperor really want to hear it?"

Kangxi looked at him with mocking eyes, and was taken aback for a moment, while being annoyed, he once again had a bad premonition in his heart.
