Cyan Lotus of Space Clearance

Chapter 107 Subsequent Events

After a few days of connection, the ministers of the DPRK and China will meet Prince Yong?With a haggard face facing her, she exudes a gloomy atmosphere of "I'm very upset, don't come near me".

Ten elder brothers Yin Russia?up?Ninth elder brother Yinzhen beside him said in a low voice: "What's the matter with this fourth brother? It was scary to have a stern face, but why even the body of a thousand-year-old ghost came out, this cold air …No one dares to approach within three feet.”

A thousand-year-old corpse?Brother Nine was overjoyed: "It must have been caused by bad luck..." He got the truth.

Elder Brother Ten glanced suspiciously at his gloating face, and lowered his voice: "It can't be that you did something good again, right?"

Brother Nine's face turned black all of a sudden: "Why me again?" Did he do it?

"Who told you to treat fourth brother badly..." Old Ten muttered, shrinking his shoulders.

Brother Jiu is speechless...

...The twelfth elder brother standing next to the two of them had a black line on his forehead, and the words "Ninth brother is not good to fourth brother" echoed forcefully in his heart...

He must have thought too much. He tried his best to pretend to be a piece of wood, but his ears continued to receive the rambling conversation between the two uncontrollably. He would think that he was a wood carving, but what he saw at this time was a brother Huang with a stiff face and twitching corners of his body and mouth--I could only secretly wonder if the elder brother Huang recently took the wrong medicine?Eyes aimed at Prince Yong again, move, move, move, it's really cold!
After finally getting back from the imperial court, Yinxuan was already stiff all over, the corners of his mouth were sour, and his mind was filled with all kinds of terrible adjectives. Before leaving, he looked at the Qianqing Palace hesitantly, thinking, originally thought that the fifth brother was all the brothers in Chinese literature. The one who is the worst, it seems that the one who should accept the transformation most is the tenth brother beside him, do you want to suggest it to the emperor?
However, thinking that the fourth brother was called away by Li Dequan just now...forget it, I don't want to face the fourth brother for the time being.

He is very happy to be a loving father to the prince Kangxi who is not a threat, not to mention the fourth elder brother whom he likes, he pays close attention to him all the time. What did Zhen do, and his complexion was so bad, that he felt that the matter was not that simple - he thought he knew the fourth son of the emperor very well, he was shrewd and capable, he was serious and responsible in doing things, and it was the worst thing to see people make mistakes. It happened that the family members in his house who valued him the most...how could he bear not to do it?
He decided to ask first.

Yinzhen followed Li Dequan into the Qianqing Palace, "My son kowtowed to Huang Ama, and Huang Ama is auspicious."

"Get up, what's going on with you the past few days, have you lost your energy in court?" Kangxi asked directly.

Yinzhen is silent, and the son doesn't say anything about his father (referring to his parents). Can he say that Concubine De is not good in front of Kangxi?Not only can't say it, but she has to cover it up for her, "...Son, it's just that I've been busy with errands recently, and I haven't slept well." He said and presented the notebook in his hand, "This is the report of my son after investigation in the Ministry of Industry and Guanglu Temple. "

Concubine Shuhui of Shunzhi passed away, and the empress dowager was very sad. Kangxi found that the funeral personnel were irresponsible and scribbled casually, so he ordered Yinzhen to investigate severely. Among the officials are Minister Mandu of the Ministry of Industry, Minister Ma Jintai, doctor Ma Liang of Guanglu Temple, and the head of the House of Internal Affairs... How to deal with it depends on Kangxi's meaning in the end.

Hmph, before he was asked to do errands, no matter how hard or tiring he was, he was fine with it, and he finished it to his satisfaction. This time, just investigating the funeral of Concubine Huang Kao Shuhui can keep him so busy that he can't sleep? !Lie to me when I'm a child?Kangxi was very angry. Is this still the fourth elder brother who is filial in everything and honest to himself?

Ok?In the past two years, Kangxi, who has grown more and more energetic, had a sharp light in his eyes, and he keenly caught the pain that flickered in his eyes when the fourth elder brother lowered his eyes...Pain?Look at his slumped shoulders, what kind of blow made this extremely resolute son so depressed, depressed and painful?
He thought about it, and waved his hand to Yinzhen, "I've done a lot of work since the New Year... In this way, I will give you three days off and rest well, I don't want you to be exhausted."

"Huang Ama!" Yinzhen's eyes were slightly red, and he glanced at Kangxi moved, fisted his hands, leaned forward slightly, but tried his best to restrain himself, and after a while, he bowed and said goodbye: "Thank you Huang Ama for your compassion, my son will leave. "

"Come here!" Kangxi said with a cold face.

A figure flashed out without a sound, bent and knelt down: "Your Majesty."

"Go and find out what happened to Prince Yong's mansion? I want the facts to be clear about the ins and outs." He said in a calm voice, slightly suspicious in his heart, but he still couldn't believe it.

"Hey." The figure took a few steps back and disappeared into the room.

Kang Xi sat on the couch, not knowing what he was thinking.

The investigation by the dark guards was a bit long this time, exactly three days.When Kangxi received the report, he couldn't believe it. Was this really what a mother did to her son?
For an old fourteen, is Wu Yashi crazy? ! (Note: Kangxi only found out about Concubine De instructing her subordinates to administer medicine to Prince Yong’s mansion, but not about what Jia Yuanchun said to Yinzhen.) Fortunately, the fourth brother tried his best to cover up the matter after he found out... …

"Your Majesty?" Li Dequan softly called Kangxi who had been sitting quietly in the study for a long time. "It's time to eat."

"Don't eat, I'm going to the Empress Dowager!" He got up and walked towards the Palace of Compassion and Peace.He had to talk to someone and ask for an opinion.

Li Dequan quickly followed.

"The emperor is here? Come and sit down, eat this." When Kangxi arrived at the Palace of Compassion, the Empress Dowager was happily talking to the nuns beside her. The fragrant pastry said.

Kangxi felt a little better when he saw the empress dowager smiling. These days, he was unhappy because of the death of the empress dowager's sister, Concubine Shuhui. In fact, no one poured out their distress and didn't want to add trouble to her old man at this time. "Is this a fresh pastry?"

"This is chicken cake, very soft and delicious." The old queen said to Kangxi with a smile: "I am old, my teeth are loose, and it hurts to eat... After hearing what the fourth child said, Su Yierha made some chicken from time to time. Cakes were brought to the palace, as well as apples, bananas and fresh lotus seeds... I ate according to the recipe for a few days and felt much better."

"It is the filial piety of the children and grandchildren to make the queen mother happy, and the health of the queen mother is a good omen for the Qing Dynasty." Kangxi tasted a piece of chicken cake, and it was as the queen mother said, soft and tender, very delicious. "The Niu Hulu family is indeed virtuous, diligent, filial and respectful..." She is extremely accomplished in planting, cooking, and female celebrity. She is a rare woman with a heart. No wonder the fourth child has a lot of gentle descendants .

Thinking of the recent encounters between the beautiful son and daughter-in-law, Kangxi's calm mood sank again, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

"That is also the emperor's good vision."

The Empress Dowager took a sip of the flower and fruit tea made by her mother, smiled and sighed, and suddenly saw anger in his eyes. Although she didn't know what embarrassing things happened to him, she also thoughtfully gestured to the mother beside her to let the people in the room All the servants withdrew. "Is there something on the emperor's mind?"

"Empress, I want to change Si elder brother's jade certificate and put him under Yuhang's name."

"What happened?" The queen mother was a little surprised. When the prince was abolished, the emperor's sad, disappointed, painful, and mentally exhausted appearance was still in front of him. At that time, he said that he would no longer establish a prince. Why did he change his mind now?
She knew that after the crown prince was abolished, Kangxi's most important thing in his heart was the fourth son of the emperor who had been raised under Tong Jia's name, and the fourth elder brother did not live up to his high expectations. —Although that child always has a straight face with no expression, if the other elder brothers can speak nice words to please people.

If the fourth elder brother is recorded under Tong Jia's name, once the jade certificate is issued, he will be the legitimate son, then he will stand at the forefront of the storm and may become the second Yinfeng to be destroyed... Isn't this what the emperor has been worried about?
"A few days ago, someone threw croton oil into the cooking oil of Prince Yong's mansion... I found out that this matter was related to the Yonghe Palace. The fourth child concealed this matter for the sake of Concubine De. If I hadn't specially sent someone to investigate I don't know that she did it." Kangxi said wearily, no matter what excuses he used to deal with Concubine De, it would be a dishonorable thing for Yinzhen, and he was unwilling to degrade his position in this matter. If Concubine De was not dealt with, she would act more and more unscrupulously. He was worried that the son he devoted himself to protecting and nurturing would accidentally fall into her hands.After thinking about it, only by changing Yinzhen's jade certificate to completely separate him from Concubine De in terms of title can prevent future troubles.

Hearing that only a few people in Prince Yong's Mansion were suffering, the Empress Dowager recited "Amitabha, God bless you", and when she heard that this insidious method was related to Concubine De, she couldn't help showing surprise on her face, "How is it possible?! After all, the fourth child is her own son..."

Concubine De's gentle and humble temperament is also praised by the people in the harem for her gentle and graceful beauty. Although she is not as good at getting along with Concubine Yi as she can talk and make herself happy, she is also careful to agree with her. Looking at her, she is also very kind to elder brothers The honesty and kindness... If it is for the reserve position, it should be fighting against the other elder brothers, why did they attack the fourth elder brother?
The queen mother was very surprised and puzzled.

Kangxi patted the armrest of the chair vigorously, with a stern expression on his face: "I don't want to believe that there are mothers who treat their sons like this, but I have to believe... I can't let the fourth child be embarrassed by such a 'Queen Mother' in the future. "The Qing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. With a mother-in-law like Concubine De who treats him like a hatred, how will the fourth son rule the world in the future? He has a calm and strong personality. Facing a biological mother who can't be moved, is he going to be with him in his old age? Spending energy to balance the faction and battle among the princes, wasting energy to appease his "Holy Mother Queen"? !

I heard from Kangxi that in the early years, except for one Di Fujin Manchu, the other side Fujin, Gege, and concubines in the four elder brothers' mansion were all women from the Han army banner, while the fourteenth elder brothers were all Manchus. The Empress Dowager was stunned when she was a beautiful girl from a wealthy family, she never thought that Concubine De would treat her two sons so differently.

And Su Yierha was the fourth elder brother who couldn't help asking the emperor because the Ulanara family hadn't come out for many years except Honghui... Thinking of this, she couldn't help but love Suyierha even deeper She is a lucky one. Since she pointed it out to the fourth elder brother, the fourth elder brother has more children, which is different from the situation in the early years when the fourth elder brother had sparse knees and most of his sons died young.

I also feel that Concubine De is really good at covering up, and I am ashamed of Tong Jia's supporting and compensating her for taking Yinzhen away - how can a mother hate her son, and Concubine De has hatred because of other reasons To vent your anger, and this reason obviously comes from Tong Jiashi - if you don't want to, is there someone forcing you to do it?Even if you can't disobey the imperial decree, the fourth elder brother will come back to you later, it's fine if you don't make up for the child, if you have complaints, just stay cold, and still put on a loving mother's posture in front of everyone, but secretly To do these heart-breaking things, it's really...not worth mentioning.

The kind-hearted empress dowager couldn't help but shake her head, "The emperor can do what he wants, and if there is anything that needs to be done, let her know."

She has also seen Kangxi's difficulty in ascending the throne for so many years. Just like when the prince was abolished, she can understand and sympathize with his suffering? , also supports his decision, even though this decision may be opposed by princes, ministers and royal family members.

"Let her be confined to the Yonghe Palace first, and I need to make some arrangements first." Kangxi also knew that this decision would cause further disturbances to the current calm court situation, and also knew that Yinzhen's life would not be too easy after this decree was implemented, but always It's better than letting Concubine De make things difficult for him because of his mother's status, and he can't resist because of his filial piety. Others, it can be regarded as a test for him. Stay in the way.

The empress dowager nodded, "Don't worry, the emperor, this matter will be handled by the Ai family."

A few days later, Concubine De was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager for not knowing what happened in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and ordered to copy the "Heart Sutra" a hundred times in Yonghe Palace before she was allowed to leave the palace.

Isn't this a disguised ban?As one of the four concubines who are in charge of palace affairs, she is deeply favored by the emperor, but the old woman scolded herself for a nun in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, it is really hateful!And that bitch Yifei always has trouble with him, if she didn't make trouble, why would she be grounded and fined to copy the "Heart Sutra"? !

I am a dignified concubine who can't even punish a servant?It was obviously that nanny bumped into me on purpose... Relying on that old woman's momentum, don't let her fall into her hands one day, otherwise she won't be spared!

Concubine De angrily swept all the teacups on the table and the glazed plate containing fresh fruits to the ground, still not relieved, then picked up the cracked glazed blue and white thin-necked bottle on the shelf and smashed it down——
