The carriage stopped on the street, and the housekeeper of Changtai Mansion got out of the car, walked quickly across the long street and directly entered the dim sum shop in the most prosperous place in the street. There was only one shopkeeper and two waiters in the shop, and the housekeeper was already here As a regular customer, the shopkeeper, who was busy making accounts, greeted him naturally when he entered the door.

The butler casually glanced around, and said to the shopkeeper, "It's still the same as before, a little of everything."

"So cool~"

The shopkeeper happily agreed, and one of the waiters had already started to pack the pastries. The butler followed him casually, but the waiter didn't seem to notice, and with his back turned to him, he was picking pastries skillfully and quickly at the table.

Then the next moment, someone grabbed one shoulder forcefully. The waiter was startled and his face changed. The butler grabbed his right wrist and broke it hard. Some suspicious white powder appeared in the palm of his hand. The butler The man who was crying in pain because of the dislocated wrist asked sharply: "What is this?!"

The shopkeeper's expression also changed and he was about to come forward. A group of officers and soldiers broke in and subdued the three people in the shop in an instant. The leader of the group was the infantry commander, Tuo Heqi.

The butler followed the waiter, and said to him: "Master Commander, this boy is sneaky, and the things in his hands are even more suspicious. Please investigate carefully."

Tuo Heqi glanced at it, and ordered harshly: "Everyone is taken back! The shop is closed!"

Another inconspicuous carriage was parked on the side of the street, and the people in the carriage could not help but narrow their eyes when they saw the situation in front of them, and the people on the side asked him in a low voice: "My lord, the crown prince and the emperor seem to have known about the matter. It's..."

The thought in the eyes of the visitor was even deeper, and it was Yinzhen.

After a while, he curled his lips and said coldly: "Don't worry about it, anyway, those who die are asking for it."

Although he actually wanted to see that the unlucky one was the prince, but unfortunately things backfired.

Yuqing Palace.

Changtai came in, greeted Yinreng who was leaning on the kang and was sleeping with his eyes closed, and reported the matter straight to the point: "Prince, the dim sum shop has been sealed up by the infantry yamen, and the people in the shop They were all sent to jail, and the snack-maker got poison in his hands and was stolen, and now even Longkodo has been sent to prison to await trial."

Yinfeng sat up, caressing his wrinkled sleeves carelessly, and asked: "The emperor already knows?"

"When the servant just entered the palace, he met Tuo Heqi at the gate of the palace, and he was also entering the palace to report something to the emperor."

"Hmm..." Yinfeng responded, thought for a while, and asked again: "What else did he tell you?"

"He said that he had preliminarily interrogated those people in the shop. Except for the young boy who was arrested, the others were said to be completely ignorant. Long Kedo also shouted for injustice, and even said that he would die to show his will. He never poisoned you and the emperor. Meaning, Tuo Heqi said that his appearance of shouting grievances really didn’t look fake, as for the boy, he said that he was using other people’s money to do things for others, and he didn’t know that it was poison, because someone wanted him to be a housekeeper in the servant’s house When he goes to buy dim sum, he just adds some of that stuff in, and he doesn’t know anything else.”

"Who is the person who asked him to do something?" Yinfeng asked with gritted teeth.

"He faltered and couldn't explain why. He said that every time he saw him, he met him in an uninhabited temple outside the city, and he was dressed in a weird way, with a big hat covering most of his face. He was actually very worried. I also thought about quitting, but I couldn't help but that person was really generous."

Yinfeng wanted to ask again, but Sun Li'an suddenly came in in a panic and reported: "Prince, there are people from Qianqing Palace, and the emperor sent you to come over urgently."

Seeing him in a hurry, Yinreng frowned slightly: "What's urgent?"

"Fang... Just now there was news from the West Institute that Brother Fourteen suddenly fell into a coma. The imperial doctor went to see him and said that he was poisoned. What he ate was exactly what you honored to the emperor, and the emperor gave it to him. Those snacks!"

Yinreng's face changed instantly when he heard that, he stood up abruptly, and asked sharply, "Why is this happening?!"

"Slave... I don't know very well, Prince, you should go to Qianqing Palace as soon as possible, the emperor's people are urging you outside..."

Not only Yinreng, but Changtai was so frightened that his legs were so weak. Before Yinreng took him to explain the whole story to Kangxi, in order to prevent Changtai from getting into trouble with him, Yinreng deliberately did not tell Kangxi that he had eaten He ate the poisonous dim sum, and he probably ate it more than once. He only said that Changtai found the poisonous dim sum and went to the palace to report it, and then Kangxi, who was persuaded by Yinfeng, should not make a public announcement. In private, he secretly ordered the commander of the infantry, and cooperated with Changtai's housekeeper to go to the dim sum shop to catch the current one.

But now, the fourteenth elder brother was suddenly poisoned and unconscious. I'm afraid he can't escape the responsibility.

Yinfeng didn't think much about it at the moment, so he led Changtai to Qianqing Palace.

In addition to Tuo Heqi, Yinti also came. He was sent into the palace by Kangxi to question his relationship with Longkodo. Kangxi's face was very ugly. Ask Yinti how much he knows about Longkodo.

Yinti secretly thought that it was bad luck, but he also expected that Kangxi would doubt him, so he replied calmly: "I have some personal relations with him, but it is never related to official affairs. All the things he did are not related to me. I didn’t know about it, let alone conspired with him to commit crimes.”

"It's not about business?" Kangxi said angrily, "It's not about business. What are you talking about when you meet in private?! What kind of like-minded things do you have with him so that you can get so close?"

"I really don't know anything about it," Yinti said, "I don't even know that the person behind that shop is him, and... Your Majesty, it was mentioned in the memorial of the Fourteenth Elder Brother that Longkodo and him Old Thirteen..."

"Ridiculous!" When Yinti mentioned Yinxiang, Kangxi became even more furious: "The old thirteen is dead! Could it be that he can still jump out and cause trouble?!"

"My son made a slip of the tongue, the emperor calms down..." Yinti lowered his head, pleaded guilty, and lowered his voice, but he was still arguing for himself: "But my son really didn't ask Longko to do anything to him. , my son absolutely has no intention of trapping the prince in unrighteousness, absolutely no..."

Kangxi's cursing words came to his lips, and he remembered Yinti's two desperate efforts to save Yinfeng, and swallowed them all. If he really wanted to see Yinfeng's badness, he could see that there was no need to save his own life. It doesn't make sense to do these little tricks again.

It's just that Kangxi was still angry, and glanced at Yinfeng, and asked in a cold voice: "Didn't you tell me that the poisoned cake was not sent to the palace? What's going on now?! Why is the old fourteen He will be unconscious due to poisoning after eating those things?!"

When things got to this point, they could only tell the truth, but before Yinfeng opened his mouth, Changtai yelled first, and kowtowed to Kangxi to plead guilty: "Slave deserves to die, slave deserves to die, they are all slaves!" It's your fault, Your Majesty, don't blame the crown prince, he is also a victim of this... They are all slaves, the slaves are stupid and didn't realize that those things were poisoned and sent to the palace for the prince, because the prince wanted to help the prince. The slave covered it up, didn't want the slave to be punished, so he didn't say that the poisonous pastry had been sent to the palace, but he didn't expect that the fourteenth master would be involved in the end... I don't want it... I really don't want it... Your majesty, calm down..."

Kangxi interrupted him impatiently, extremely annoyed: "You are really brave! How dare you hide such a big matter from me! If Yinzhen hadn't taken the pastry by mistake this time, would you have just Are you going to keep this secret from me?!"

"I have used a lot of poisonous cakes. The imperial doctor said that there is no serious problem. Why does the old fourteen have such a big reaction after eating a little?"

Yinfeng finally opened his mouth, his brows were slightly frowned but his tone was very calm, obviously he had some doubts about this matter, Kangxi was even more angry when he heard him say that, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the imperial physician who reported Yinzhen's condition , Angrily said: "Tell him! Why is Brother Fourteen doing this!"

The imperial doctor explained tremblingly: "The fourteenth elder brother is not feeling well these days, because the pollen fell on his body and he has rashes all over his body. The medicine for eliminating the rash prescribed by the imperial hospital happened to be in harmony with the poison. Mixing it together will improve the blood circulation." Because of the toxicity of the medicine, Brother Fourteen was poisoned and fell into a coma after only taking a little."

"Can it be saved?"

"The humble ministers are already doing their best to save..." The imperial doctor said, looking at Kangxi's ugly face, his body trembled more and more, and said falteringly: "It's just...it's just that the fourteenth elder brother is seriously poisoned, and he There was already a rash on his body, but now the high fever persists, and he is in shock... If the poison can't be cured...he will continue to burn like this... I'm afraid it's... I'm afraid it's..."

At the end, seeing that Kangxi's complexion was as dark as the bottom of a pot, the imperial doctor crawled down and dared not speak any more. Yinfeng and Yinti were both surprised when they heard it. Is it so serious?

Changtai was paralyzed on the ground when he heard the words, the matter was so serious that he couldn't even shirk the responsibility of sitting down.

Kangxi almost gritted his teeth and asked Yinreng: "What else do you have to say?"

Yinreng was also annoyed by his pressing tone, and replied coldly: "If the emperor wants to doubt my minister, if my minister refuses to accept, I am also a victim. If the emperor does not believe me, I can ask the imperial physician to examine my son's body. The poison that he ate was definitely much more than that of the old fourteen, but the son was luckier than him, and he was lucky not to be poisoned to death."

"Your Majesty! The crown prince is telling the truth! Don't blame him, it's all the slave's fault!" Seeing Kangxi's anger, Changtai burst into tears and begged for mercy: "It's all the slaves who are too confused , It’s the servant who got the crown prince down! But the crown prince is absolutely filial to you, if not, he wouldn’t have asked the imperial doctor many times in private after he found out that the dim sum was poisonous, the crown prince is most worried about you His body, he is really devoted to you! Someone, someone knew that the prince would buy these snacks outside to honor you, so he deliberately used this to frame the prince, your majesty, you are clearly aware of it!"

Being interrupted by Changtai, Kangxi couldn't continue talking, even though he was still very dissatisfied with Yinfeng's attitude, he still choked out the sentence "I will check things out and not just casually wrong people" and let him go first Go, then drove Yinti out of the palace and let him go back to the mansion, and finally ordered Changtai to be detained first, and ordered the infantry yamen and the clan's mansion to investigate the matter thoroughly before reporting back.

Before Tuo Heqi knelt down and retreated, Kangxi stopped him again, thought for a while, turned over Yinzhen's book on the outside of the Great Wall, and threw it down to Tuo Heqi: "Go and find out, these people What the hell is going on between them!"
