86. The Qing Dynasty, Which Was Worn Like a Sieve (XIX)

The plan of Concubine De was under the surveillance of Yinzhen from the beginning, and the incident was discovered too quickly, catching all the participants off guard. With the previous example of the suspect who committed suicide after falling off a horse, Li Dequan did not give anyone the opportunity to commit suicide this time. He tortured them severely as soon as they were caught and got a confession as quickly as possible.

At first, Concubine De did not believe that she would be exposed, so she gritted her teeth and endured it, drinking spiritual spring water when no one was around. But people kept betraying her, and the torture made her more and more unbearable, so she finally broke down and confessed. But she avoided the important issues and pushed all the responsibilities onto her family, saying that all this was the order of the Uya family, and the Baoyi family joined forces to protect her from ascending to the throne, and she was just their puppet. This time, it was Suo Etu and the Baoyi family who formed an alliance, so she was asked to destroy Yinzhen and make him only a loyal minister of the prince in the future.

She wanted to divert the hatred, but she still remembered that she dared not attack the prince, because the prince was Kangxi's favorite, while Soetu was Kangxi's thorn in the eye. Her confession immediately caused an uproar! First, the major baoyi families were liquidated, and the various things found out completely angered Kangxi, as if he had returned to the time when he overthrew Oboi. He could not tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes, and he ruthlessly searched the family and spared no one!

Then it was Soetu. As soon as Kangxi investigated Soetu, Mingzhu's party immediately seized the opportunity, and the memorials impeaching Soetu flew to the imperial case like snowflakes. The prince was shocked that Soetu and Defei were conspiring, but when he heard from the people in the Imperial Hospital that Yinzhen found that he was poisoned before he drank the soup, he was relieved and went to plead for Soetu.

Kangxi looked at the prince with a gloomy face and remained silent. The prince gradually felt a sense of oppression he had never felt before, and he couldn't help but raise his head and plead, "Father, I know that Suo Etu did something wrong, but Uya took the initiative to find him and said she wanted to deal with my fourth brother. He suspected it was a trap, so he just agreed to it casually to see what would happen next. He never expected that Uya would harm her own son..."

"So you think Suo Etu is innocent?"

Kangxi suppressed his anger and disappointment in his voice, but the prince who had always been favored by him didn't notice it. He just wanted to save Suo Etu, which was his greatest power. "Father, Suo Etu was wrong and should be punished, but I think he is a rare talent in the court. Can you demote him and let him make up for his mistakes and continue to be loyal to you?"

Kangxi laughed in anger, "Prince, Yinzhen is your brother, go back and think about it."

"Father..."

"Enough, I will make my own decision on this matter."

The prince frowned and retreated, always feeling that something was missed. How could he know that Yinzhen had been killed and had no offspring? He thought he could plead for mercy as long as there were no serious consequences, but Kangxi was hurt by Yinzhen's sterilization and could not let go of the people involved. Moreover, the Imperial Hospital had already reported to Kangxi that when the incident happened, the first person to inquire was not Defei's people, but Soetu's people!

As a result, the prince's plea for mercy made him particularly disappointed. He was determined to cultivate Yinzhen, Yinzhen and others to help the prince, but the prince regarded them as enemies and had no intention of conquering and protecting them. Compared with the relationship between Yinzhen and his younger brothers Xiaowu and Xiaoqi, the prince seemed too arrogant and too cold-blooded. If Soetu's party thought that he blocked the prince's way to the throne in the future, would the prince be so cold-blooded to him?

This thought flashed through Kangxi's mind, but it left a trace, making him even more unwilling to let Soetu go. However, Suo Etu's power was very large, and it was not easy to take him down without sufficient evidence. The impact was wide, so the court suddenly became fierce. The Mingzhu Party wanted to crush Suo Etu all the time, and Suo Etu's party fought back without giving in. The two factions suffered losses in the fight, and Kangxi sat on the Diaoyutai, waiting for the moment to close the net.

During this period, the power of the Tong family quietly expanded a lot, and the children in the court were promoted to varying degrees. Yue Xing'a also entered the Ministry of Works and worked under Yinzhen. At the same time, the Baoyi family was killed and exiled, and they were replaced by a group of newly selected palace people. Yinzhen was responsible for formulating new rules to let them cooperate with each other and check each other. Except for a little oil and water, there was no possibility of harming anyone.

This was Kangxi's compensation to Yinzhen, giving him higher power, and Yinzhen once again gave him a surprise and perfectly solved this mess. He also exposed the slaves around the princesses who bullied their masters. Those maids who controlled the princesses were all confiscated and exiled, so that the princesses no longer had to swallow their anger.

Kangxi felt that this swift and ruthless style was a bit too much, but then he thought that any man would not be able to bear knowing that he could not have children, not to mention that he was harmed by his own mother. Yinzhen's move might just be to vent his anger. Moreover, such a style is easy to offend people, and he can only be a pure minister in the emperor's heart, unable to form a party for personal gain, and it is also good for the court.

Kangxi thought for a long time, and finally sighed, said nothing, and decided to reuse Yinzhen. A son who is childless, infatuated, and upright is the person he can trust the most, and the only one who will not think about the dragon throne.

Because of these ups and downs, the selection was cancelled, and Kangxi ordered all women of marriageable age to marry on their own. Su Yuanyuan did not leave the palace, and stayed with the sad Tong Jia Wanxian, fearing that she would hurt her body.

Kangxi went to Chengqian Palace every day and saw that Su Yuanyuan was filial and treated Yinzhen as usual, without any dislike, and he liked Su Yuanyuan even more. While chatting after the meal, he seemed to smile unintentionally and said: "This year's draft has been cancelled, but Yinzhen is not young. You two childhood sweethearts have always been good friends. How about I grant you a marriage?"

After speaking, he picked up the tea cup, but from the corner of his eye, he noticed the expressions of Yinzhen and Su Yuanyuan. I saw that both of them were a little surprised. They bowed and thanked them without saying anything, which surprised Kangxi. He felt that if something like this happened, Yinzhen might be a little depressed and ask Su Yuanyuan to marry someone else, while Su Yuanyuan might be somewhat unwilling and never leave her. But I didn't expect...these two people seemed to have been waiting for him to marry them for a long time. Is their relationship so good?

He thought about it and felt that it would be a comfort to Yinzhen to let them develop more relationships after marriage, and said: "Originally, Fujin and Gege came in three months after your wedding, but now...it will be a year later. Bar."

"Huang Ama." Yinzhen took a step forward and said directly, ignoring Tong Jiawanxian's blocking eyes, "I beg Huang Ama to give me a favor and allow me not to have other women in my house."

Kangxi's face sank and his brows furrowed, but before he could speak, Yinzhen said again: "Huang Ama, there are only two purposes for adding women in the backyard. One is to be a woman, and the other is to give birth to heirs. Children and ministers are unfilial. Now The situation is such that it is impossible to produce children for the royal family. If there is no child in the future, maybe one of the brothers can adopt a child for me, or adopt a child without a father and mother, which will be my blessing. "

When Kangxi heard him talking about his heirs, his heart softened a little and his expression softened. Seeing this, Yinzhen took Su Yuanyuan's hand, knelt on the ground, and said sincerely: "Huang Ama, my son and my cousin grew up by your side. They were childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts, and they have already understood each other. Now something like this happened to my son. It is so heartbreaking that my cousin will never experience the feeling of being a mother in her whole life. How can she allow other women to share my cousin's love? Emperor Ama, if your son does not care about women, he will not have any heirs. In the future, he will only have children. I want to be of one mind with my cousin and my husband, and we don’t want any woman to come between us. I ask Emperor Ama to make it happen!”

Su Yuanyuan held Yinzhen's hand tightly. For the first time in front of Kangxi, she did not try to be nice, but looked serious, "Cousin, Xuanying can do what other women can do, and Xuanying can do what other women can't do." , From now on, I only wish to be together with my cousin and my husband, and we will never be apart. I ask my cousin to fulfill my wish."

Kangxi laughed angrily, "What do you know, little girl? In the future, when others call you a jealous woman or a shrew, I'm afraid you will regret it."

Su Yuanyuan's eyes were particularly determined, "As long as no one competes with me for my cousin, what's the point of being a jealous woman or a shrew? Even if I have to bear the reputation of being infertile and become a sinner of the royal family, I won't hesitate. I don't want anyone. By my side, my cousin can only have me! If he doesn’t give his whole heart to me, why should I give my whole heart to him?”

"Presumptuous!" Kangxi's anger rose and he slammed the table.

Tong Jiawanxian held his hand in time and looked at him pleadingly, "Cousin..."

Kangxi was startled for a moment, thinking back to the relationship between him and Tong Jiawanxian, how could it be that he won her complete heart only after he doted on Tong Jiawanxian? Even if he had three palaces and six courtyards, ruled the world, and had descendants everywhere, wouldn't Tong Jiawanxian be the only one who treats him without selfish motives in the end? Yinzhen has no heirs and cannot inherit the throne. Why don't we give him a woman who treats him sincerely?

Seeing Su Yuanyuan holding her neck and refusing to give in, he suddenly laughed and said angrily: "Why don't you get up quickly? You are the only one who dares to be as big or small as me. Okay, as you say, But if one day your relationship is not harmonious, I will give Yinzhen a woman every year."

Su Yuanyuan pulled Yinzhen up and smiled confidently, "Cousin, you don't have that chance. My cousin and I definitely love each other and make others envious."

"You're such a shameless girl, go away quickly, don't get in my way." Kangxi smiled, waved his hand and stopped caring about their business.

He had just thought a lot, such as letting Yinzhen be the infatuated prince, and letting Su Yuanyuan bear the rumors of infertility, hiding the truth for a lifetime, so as to save the face of Yinzhen and the royal family; such as letting Su Yuanyuan remember this good thing , treat Yinzhen more attentively, let Yinzhen remember this good thing, and be more loyal in handling errands in the court; for example, he gave them this special thing, making Tong Jiawanxian more convinced of his love for Chengqian Palace, and so on.

He thought so much, but it was actually just his subconscious reaction as an emperor. More importantly, he truly loved her. Thinking about it carefully, in the past few years, he has been staying in Chengqian Palace every day, and almost every day or two he has had meals with the four children of Chengqian Palace. This is more than he has had meals with the prince. They seem to be doted on by him. Children, there is nothing wrong with pampering them and fulfilling their wishes. Anyway, as long as he protects them, who dares to criticize them?

Yinzhen and Su Yuanyuan went for a walk in the backyard and said with a smile, "It's all solved, are you happy?"

Su Yuanyuan also laughed, "Why do you have so many things on your mind? Giving birth to a child, marrying Fu Jin, being a concubine, a wealthy family, your cousin's favor, the princess's gratitude, the battles in the court... you solved them all at once, and you still You’ve received a lot of benefits, why are you so smart?”

"I am only seductive to others. I am transparent in front of you."

Su Yuanyuan immediately pulled him and looked him up and down, "Let me see, let me see, where is it showing? What is showing?"

Yinzhen's ears turned red immediately, and he hurriedly pulled her hand off, "Stop talking nonsense!"

"What nonsense? Don't you know I'm a vixen?" Su Yuanyuan smiled, stretched out her hand to pinch his face and ran away.

Su Peisheng and others who followed in the distance smiled when they saw how good their relationship was. When the two masters got married, there would be no other masters in the mansion. It would be much easier for them to work. I really hope that kind of life will come sooner.
