[Qing Dynasty] "Gege" is polite
Chapter 87
The 48th year of Kangxi passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the 49th year of Kangxi.
At the beginning of the year, Yinzhen escorted food and grass to the front line as a supervising army. This is just a fixed thing every year. However, at the end of May, the court received a report from the border, and the Junggar tribe was about to move. That's the end of the matter.
On the westbound official road, there is a team that is very conspicuous, and it spreads for more than ten miles, no matter it is the guards following or the vehicles that are escorting, ordinary people dare not approach.
Yinzhen rode a horse and followed the convoy, followed by several attendants. He held the reins and looked at the endless road in front of him. He drove forward and arrived in his carriage after a while. Yinzhen handed over the tea.
Yinzhen finished drinking casually, "Go and call the other officials who supervise the transportation of grain and grass."
It's a long journey, and Yinzhen didn't know exactly when to be stationed at first, but as time went by on the road, he gradually understood it.According to today's walking distance, it is impossible to reach the next station in time.
A few accompanying officials came over soon, Yinzhen laid out the map in the spacious compartment, pointed to a certain place ahead, "According to your previous plan, you will be here the day after tomorrow, but today's speed is slow , it will take at least four days to arrive, and if it takes one day to delay, isn’t it false?”
Several officials looked at each other, and it took a while before someone dared to speak, "Master Fourteen, this is only the estimated speed, and it is actually impossible to complete. We have always been like this, so don't worry about it."
Yinzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly looked sharp, "Then you guys have falsely reported the time!"
The man quickly waved his hand and said, "Master Fourteen, this is a common practice. It's not a time of war, and the frontier doesn't need the food so much. These are just as a backup." The implication is that there is no need to pursue this matter, but to pursue it. It didn't help either.
Yinzhen knew that although he had the status of a prince, in the eyes of these people, he was just a newborn calf, and they didn't take him seriously at all.It is true that he respects him on the surface, but if he has done something in private, he will not be able to see anything.
Yinzhen didn't show it on his face, and after waving them to go back, he recruited Yang Wen, his personal attendant, "Have you heard anything these days?"
Yang Wen looked at the cheeks of the sharp-billed monkey, but he was actually a calm person. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "They were very quiet along the way. As for the people who pressed the grain and grass, although there were escort soldiers, most of them were civilians in corvée service. Can't hear anything."
Yinzhen was a little disappointed, he did notice something inappropriate along the way.He had also heard about the lack of pay and the deduction of food and pay in the army. He was powerless to do nothing about the lack of pay for the time being, and the latter must never happen.
It's just that he still noticed something inappropriate.
There is indeed something wrong with this grain truck, but no matter how Yinzhen investigates, he can't find anything wrong.
"I should have dragged Wen Liang here before leaving."
Yinzhen complained vaguely, the scene he envisioned was completely opposite to the current situation, but fortunately he also understood Huang Ama's thoughts, and it was enough to practice step by step.
……
Concubine De called Yinzhen to Yonghe Palace when she learned about the Northwest incident.
The relationship between Yinzhen and Concubine De is awkward, and the two of them rarely have other contacts, and Yinzhen often comes to see one or two according to the time is the ultimate.
Concubine De has always avoided talking with Concubine Yinzhen in person, but according to her personality, perhaps Yinzhen is the one who is most similar to Concubine De, she is always as cold as ice in front of outsiders, and has no other expressions at all.
"Fourth."
The room is lit with quiet spices, and curling cigarettes radiate from the corners, surging with the airflow in the room, calming people's minds.The furnishings in the Yonghe Palace have always been elegant and elegant, with few other prominent colors, but the incense burner in the corner is different, it looks a little brighter.
Yinzhen knew that it was a gift from Yinzhen at Concubine De's birthday banquet, and Concubine De had always loved it.
"What's the matter, ma'am?"
Yinzhen said in a low voice.
Even so, Yinzhen also probably knew why Concubine De was looking for him.Although the harem doesn't interfere in politics, how could Concubine De not know about what happened some time ago, she is naturally very concerned about it, after all, Yinzhen went to the Northwest.
"Has the fourth son received any news from Yinzhen?" Concubine De said softly.
Yinzhen shook his head, "Yinzhen's news is one every ten days, and it should be on the way right now."
Concubine De also knew about this, she pursed her lips, showing a slightly bored expression, "I really can't stop Fourteen's temper."
Now that Yinzhen has gone out, Concubine De has no reason to continue to stop, the child grows up, the wings will naturally harden, and she has her own ideas, Concubine De can't say anything.It's just that the worry is still there.It's just that Concubine De is calm and won't go to Emperor Kangxi to say these things.
Yinzhen said softly, "The fourteenth brother is only the supervisor of the army. If there is no accident, he will be able to return to Beijing after the food and grass are escorted. Don't worry, my lady."
Concubine De nodded, and then asked about Yin Zhen's situation, although it seemed normal.It's just that compared with the previous tension, there is still a gap here.
After Yinzhen came out of Yonghe Palace, he didn't go back to the mansion directly, but first went to Xian'an Palace to have a look.
Xian'an Palace, as a veritable cold palace, has no comparison with the magnificence of the Eastern Palace. It looks cold and overgrown with weeds. If there are not guards outside, it looks like a deserted place.
Yinzhen was originally a guard who was accepted by Emperor Kangxi, and the guards outside also recognized him. When Yinzhen came, they let him in, but Su Peisheng couldn't follow, and waited outside.
Yinzhen went in alone, the huge palace was only nested outside, and when he saw Yinzhen, he rushed out, "My lord is auspicious—"
"Get up, where is the second elder brother?"
Since Yinreng was abolished and has no title, the title has naturally changed.
The man from the palace said, "Second Elder Brother is inside." He trotted ahead to lead the way for Yinzhen, and Yinzhen followed the palace servants into the house, the gloomy and cold appearance was a bit chilling, Yinzhen waved his hands to let the people outside retreat , called out, "Second brother."
After a long while, there was some movement in the room, Yinfeng said in a low voice, "Why does the fourth child have time to come here?" His voice was cold and indifferent, with a sense of depression.
Yinzhen said, "Just to see my second brother."
Yinfeng smiled vicissitudes, "Fourth brother, we Ming people don't speak dark words. If Huang Ama hadn't told you to look at me, would you come to Xian'an Palace so kindly?" He came out of the shadows, wearing clothes It's a bit old, but it's very clean, but the eyes are completely different from before.
Those unruly people seem to have been polished by the ups and downs, and disappeared in this tempering.
Yinzhen said earnestly, "I've already settled everything with my second brother before, and I'm here this time just to see how my second brother is doing. If my second brother doesn't want to, I'll just leave."
Yinzhen must repay every penny, and never let himself suffer.It's just that his personality is somewhat similar to Wen Liang's, and he won't always keep it in mind after revenge.
After all, Yinfeng is his elder brother, and he is a person who stands up to his identity, if it wasn't for good fortune to trick others...
No, not good fortune, but desire.
Yinzhen thought to himself, what if the person imprisoned in Xian'an Palace is himself?
I've never experienced it, and I'll never understand that feeling.
"Forget it, sit down." It was rare for Yinreng to find someone who could talk. During the days here, even the palace officials shunned him. Who would dare to contact him.As for the subordinates outside, there are gradually fewer people who can follow.
Yinzhen sat down opposite Yinreng, the two were silent for a long while, Yinreng sneered, "You said you wanted to see me, why, is this your attitude towards people?"
He didn't wait for Yinzhen to reply and said again, "In the past few months, have you enjoyed the taste of being sought after by others? Fourth child, let me tell you, these are all imaginary, any prince, any favor is bullshit and has no power. You are a dog in Huang Ama's eyes!"
Yinzhen's eyes turned cold, "Second brother, be careful!"
Yinfeng laughed and said, "Can't you see clearly? In Huang Ama's eyes, we are all wolves, tigers and leopards waiting for his position. Now that I'm down, isn't it you?"
When he was imprisoned, Yinfeng and others were still grounded, and no one told Yinfeng about it.
Yinzhen said in a deep voice, "Second brother, stop talking nonsense, and please rest well."
He stood up and walked out, with Yinreng lazily reciting words behind his back, "Young people don't know the feeling of sorrow, they fall in love with the upper floors. In love with the upper floors, they forcefully express their sorrows in order to compose new words. Now they know all the sorrows, and they want to say it." It’s still a while, but it’s been a cool autumn!”
The deep and depressing sound was still vaguely lingering until Yinzhen went out the door.
Yinreng became more extreme and more sober.
……
Wen Liang was reading a book in the small courtyard, but this mood was not comfortable for some reason, maybe it was bored in summer and uncomfortable after staying in the house for a long time.Although there was an iceberg in the corner, the heat still spread from the outside.
When Wen Liang got up, Lu Yi naturally followed, he walked out of the house to the small courtyard, saw something, and suddenly pursed his lips, Lu Yi almost thought it was a small smile.
Lu Yi followed Wen Liang's gaze, and it turned out to be Wen Liang rolling on the tree.
Lvyi chuckled, the husband has revealed a lot of emotions these days.
When Wen Liang jumped down from the tree, it was almost mixed with a heavy weight that gave Wen Liang a heavy blow. Not to mention the weight, Wen Liang weighed it for a while, and said in a deep voice, "Lu Yi, Wen Liang is a little too fat .”
Lu Yi carefully looked at the appearance of the big cat's forehead, and nodded seriously after a while, "That's true."
The appearance of the big cat is very cute, even the people in the yard dare not touch her, but Wen Liang dotes on her, and Wen Liang is cute at first, so the people in the yard are naturally a little too pampered, whether it is cat food or daily life. There are very few activities, isn't it just gaining weight over time?
Wen Liang only knew that cats would get sick if they were overweight, so he shook Wen Liang's two front paws, and after confirming that he was indeed overweight, he coldly avoided Wen Liang's additional meals.
Fortunately, the big cat couldn't understand Wen Liang's meaning, and it meowed while rubbing against Wen Liang's chest, which sounded very cute.
Wen Liang handed Wen Liang to Lu Yi, and then went out with the books in his hands.He planned to go to the library to have a look, since Wen Liang had hardly been there since he came back.
Lu Yi motioned for Tongque to follow quickly, and then went back indoors with Wen Liang in her arms. The big cat hadn't cut its nails for half a month.
Wen Liang strolled to the path, and before leaving the garden directly, he saw a familiar figure standing by the lake.Wen Liang stared at it for a while, then came back to his senses, "Brother Dai?"
The warm voice caused the people by the lake to turn around, and it really was Dai Duo.
Dai Duo showed a surprised smile, and walked up to Wen Liang in a few steps, "Dai knew that I could meet Brother Wen here."
Wen Liang said, "When will Brother Dai come back?"
Dai Duo smiled and said, "I just entered the mansion just now, I just stood by the lake and thought about something. I planned to see the prince first, but now the time has not come back, so I wanted to visit brother Wen, but I never thought about it. Brother came out first."
Wen Liang said, "A certain book is planning to go to the library."
Dai Duo looked at the familiar direction and invited, "Why don't we go together?"
Wen Liang nodded, and the two left the Huxin Pavilion and headed for the library.
In the study building, Wen Liang and Dai Duo sat opposite each other. Dai Duo smiled lightly, "It's been rare to see Brother Wen in the past two years, and then you came back to Beijing suddenly. It's really rare to see you."
Wen Liang said quietly, "How long will Brother Dai plan to stay when you return to Beijing this time?"
Dai Duo groaned, and then said, "It will take about half a month, and then I plan to go to Sichuan."
Wen Liang pursed her lips, "Brother Dai plans to stay with Gengyao last year?"
Dai Duo shook his head and said softly, "Nian Gengyao is indeed Dai's target, but the more serious thing is another one, which is related to a matter that Dai was investigating before."
Wen Liang nodded, but did not continue to ask, different people are responsible for different things.Except for Yinzhen, no one can know the detailed inside, which is indeed the safest thing for Yinzhen.
Wen Liang suddenly thought that the seal Yinzhen had given him was still there, and he kept forgetting to return it.
"How is Brother Wen in the capital?"
Dai Duo asked with a smile. Except for letters, the two rarely communicated.After all, it takes too long to communicate, and it is impossible to always remember friends who are far away.
Wen Liang said calmly, "Everything is normal, it's okay."
Dai Duo covered his mouth and smiled, "That's right, Dai asked a stupid question indeed." With Wen Liang's ability, there are very few people who can make him have an accident.
Wen Liang didn't mention the accident he encountered before, and said solemnly, "Brother Dai is going to Sichuan, please pay close attention to Nian Gengyao's situation."
Dai Duo frowned slightly. It was impossible for Wen Liang to mention Nian Gengyao again and again for no reason. He vaguely knew that this person was indeed Yinzhen's. Could there be something strange about it?Dai Duo just nodded, planning to talk about it after going to Sichuan.
Seeing Dai Duo by chance, Wen Liang's idea of reading a book in the library was also shattered. Fortunately, Dai Duo's situation was more urgent. My lord, this is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing."
Wen Liang said nothing, he understood Dai Duo's meaning.
Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. It would be fine if the rain and dew were shared equally, but Yinzhen's specialness will attract the attention of many people.Among these elder princes right now, Yinzhen is really a living target.
Dai Duo said again, "It's just that there is one strange thing. The prince has not wanted to marry a wife so far, and we don't know what the prince's plan is. It's just that this doesn't conform to the prince's idea."
After all, Yinzhen's offspring are rare, and he has also heard the news that the prince has not entered the backyard for many years, which is also a strange point.
Wen Liang looked at Dai Duo's suspicious eyes, paused for a few breaths, "Brother Dai intends to ask someone?"
Dai Duo was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands and laughed, "Of course not, it's just a feeling." If you want to ask Wen Liang, it's better for him to see it himself. Wen Liang is a gentleman, and he doesn't think about it.
After the two of them stayed in the study building for half an hour, Yinzhen came back from the palace. Dai Duo hurried over when he heard the news. Wen Liang looked at the sun and went back to the small courtyard slowly.
Wen Liang sat down in the study, took out something from the lower shelf and placed it on the surface, carefully looking at the records left above.It is now the 49th year of Kangxi, and there are about ten years left before Emperor Kangxi passed away.
The current situation in the imperial court is clear, except for Yinzhen, the other elder brothers are somewhat weak, and because of the ambiguous attitude of Emperor Kangxi, many people dare not stand in line anymore, which makes the situation in the court somewhat delicate.
Emperor Kangxi was a good emperor, but also an emperor with a strong desire to control, which can be seen in the methods he used under his command.
After the incident with the crown prince, the emperor did not intend to re-establish the crown prince. After refuting the opinions of several ministers one after another, he suppressed their voices by means of thunder, and no one has mentioned this matter yet.
However, it does not mean that this thought can disappear.
There was a faint light in Wenliang's dark eyes, and he was very serious when he read the information. Whether it was the emperor's intention or Yinzhen's intention, it is naturally the best to maintain this situation, but other people may not like it. satisfied.
When Yinzhen was the abolished prince, he was pulled out by Emperor Kangxi as a target, and he naturally had the benefits he deserved. Watching Yinzhen gradually grow up, there will always be people who can't help it.
Wen Liang thought, if it were him, where would he start?
Right now Yinzhen is acting in a safe manner, has not participated in anything else, and is strict with his subordinates. The people under him basically understand Prince Yong's character and dare not easily anger Yinzhen.Although it is possible to catch everything in one go from the official side, it is not an easy task.
So what about personal morality?
Wen Liang half-heartedly thought that if it was about this aspect, Yinzhen really had something to say.He has never remarried since the death of Fujin a few years ago, and he has no other children for many years. If you criticize this point...
Wen Liang slowly sorted out all his thoughts, intending to cut off everything from the source.
"Go and sort out all the news that has been circulating in private these days."
"Yes." A hoarse voice replied.
Wen Liang squinted her eyes and thought about everything again, before resting with half-closed eyes.
"gentlemen?"
After a long while, Wen Liang heard Yinzhen's voice in a haze, opened his eyes, and saw a handsome figure standing opposite, the appearance of the backlight is not clear, only a faint halo can be seen.
"Grandpa?"
Wen Liang straightened up, but before he could stand up, he was pressed down by Yinzhen who walked behind him, "Since you are tired, sir, you should go to bed and rest."
Wen Liang shook her head, "I'm just a little sleepy, and I'll be fine after a short nap."
Yinzhen didn't quite agree, but looked at Wen Liang's appearance, he was still very gentle, "How about this, sir, go to bed and take a nap first?"
This was no different from what he said before, Wen Liang rejected it expressionlessly.
Yinzhen was helpless.
Ever since Wen Liang and Yinzhen became close, the two of them have spent more time meeting each other than before, and the people who served them personally knew this more or less, but no one dared to speak.
Yinzhen has a cold personality and has always been cold.Mr. Wen was even more indifferent, expressionless, and who would dare to gossip in front of these two people.Ever since Zhang Qilin cleaned up the people in the front yard several times, no one dared to gossip anymore.
Wen Liang mentioned what he was thinking just now, and then said, "Master, although this matter is not that serious, it just needs to be more careful."
After listening to Wen Liang's previous analysis, Yinzhen nodded thoughtfully. This was originally a time for winning by all means, and it would not be unusual if there were such indecent means.
After seeing Yinzhen remembering this matter, Wen Liang remembered another matter, stood up and searched for a while on the bookshelf behind him, and found a small box.
That little box was really pretty, and Yinzhen felt familiar when he saw it.
It's that seal.
Wen Liang handed the box in front of Yinzhen, and said seriously, "This is the seal that the master bestowed on a certain person, and it is of no use to a certain person since he has returned to Beijing."
Yinzhen looked at him leisurely, "Sir, do you really think so?"
Wen Liang said, "Someone just made the most correct choice."
If this seal is placed here with Wen Liang, if something happens, it will be no small matter.
Yinzhen said with a low smile, "The most correct choice is often not the best choice. Mister, please keep it. I will not take back this seal."
Wen Liang pursed his lips, although Yin Zhen's attitude was relaxed, but it was firm.
Wen Liang didn't refuse, so she put away the seal again, "I don't regret it, that's naturally the best thing."
Yinzhen smiled and said, "In this matter, I really won't regret it."
……
What Wen Liang guessed was not false. Before he started to investigate, there were some not-so-pleasing remarks.
As soon as these rumors started to appear, just as they were about to attract the attention of others, several pieces of news about others exploded one after another, making the people completely forget about this matter, and instead attracted the attention of others.
Rumors can be spread because of the places where gossip can be made, but if more explosive news appears at the same time, it will no longer be so attractive.
Yinzhen was very surprised by the news that Wen Liang threw out, and said with a smile one day, "Could it be that Mr. sent someone to their house."
The news that Wen Liang threw out was true and false, and it was all about other elder brothers' houses, from top to bottom in a short time, no matter which elder brother it was.
This real, fake, and lively scene also made the news in Yinzhen's mansion less eye-catching, and instead became one of the inconspicuous ones.
Wen Liang pursed her lips, "A mixture of true and false is always appropriate."
After all, compared to Yinzhen's childlessness, talking about the mother worm in the eighth elder brother's house seems to be a hot topic worth discussing.
Emperor Kangxi sneaked Wen Liangti into the palace a few days later.
When Wen Liang entered, he frowned slightly when he saw Emperor Kangxi serving with a chessboard.
The last time Emperor Kangxi really did everything he could to get Wen Liang to play chess seriously, Wen Liang really didn't want to experience it a second time.
Emperor Kangxi pointed to the opposite side, "Sit down."
Wen Liang sat down obediently.
"Tell me, what exactly did you do?" Emperor Kangxi laid down his first child slowly, seeming sure that Wen Liang understood what he meant.
That's great, Emperor Kangxi didn't even need to say a word, he followed the steps and acquiesced to the Wenliang situation.
Wen Liang silently touched a chess piece, and said seriously, "A certain one is just using his own way to deal with his own body." He prepared this game of chess without even thinking about it, and just did it casually.
Emperor Kangxi didn't see Wen Liang's "sinister intentions" for the time being, and soon said, "The fierce wife of Lao Ba's family?" He sneered, sounding dissatisfied.
Wen Liang casually followed the footsteps of Emperor Kangxi and stepped beside him, "My father will cut off his sons and grandchildren."
Emperor Kangxi scolded immediately, "Nonsense!"
Wen Liang pursed his lips and looked at Emperor Kangxi, only then did he come to his senses, what Wen Liang said was the slander when the rumors started earlier.
"It's a good thing that a certain one doesn't have any objections to Ba Ye's respect for his first wife." Wen Liang laid another son on the road to death, but Emperor Kangxi hadn't noticed it yet, and was listening to Wen Liang's voice.
"Three people became a tiger. The news circulating in Beijing is completely different from that at the beginning. I don't think this is my responsibility."
Emperor Kangxi made a casual noise, and said in a low voice, "It's not your responsibility, who else could it be?" If it weren't for someone secretly fueling the flames, the rumors wouldn't have spread so quickly.
Wen Liang smiled obediently, "Someone thought he was the first to do it."
Emperor Kangxi looked at the rare smile on Wen Liang's face, and shook his head angrily, "If you smile again, this matter will be over with a smile?"
Wen Liang kept this posture still, stretched out his hand to touch the corner of his mouth, took note of the curved arc, and returned to his expressionless face, "I don't smile anymore."
Emperor Kangxi choked and was speechless.
Compared with when he looked at Wen Liang with no expression, Emperor Kangxi still wanted to look at Wen Liang's extremely rare smiling face just now.
"It's really..." Emperor Kangxi laughed angrily, and surrounded Wen Liang's chess pieces viciously, but before launching the offensive, he noticed the current appearance on the chessboard. Chess moves are more like children doing at will.
Emperor Kangxi blinked.
Wen Liang blinked.
"Little bastard!!"
Standing outside the door, Liang Jiugong could even hear the roar inside the house. He stretched out his little finger to pick out his ears, and looked at the sunlight outside leisurely. The weather is really good today.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Wen Liang and Emperor Kangxi were sitting in front of the chessboard, and Emperor Kangxi said seriously, "If you play this game indiscriminately again, I will put you in confinement."
Wen Liang also nodded seriously, proving that he knew about it.The head-knocking just now was no joke.
The flipping accident in the half-quarter of an hour just disappeared.
"Come again, you were so angry that you almost forgot what to say just now." Emperor Kangxi glared at Wenliang.
Emperor Kangxi did not pay attention to this matter at the beginning. This was not spread from the official level, but spread among the people in the capital as gossip.It's okay if it's normal, the news that spreads will naturally be suppressed, but this time it's different.
The news broadcast by Wen Liangsan is true and false, covering a wide range of areas, but it is also a small and innocuous issue, even if Wen Liang is found in front of him, nothing will happen.And because there are too many people involved, while some people are covering it up, there are naturally people who don't like it and are provoking it. This time, instead of suppressing the rumors, they became more and more provocative.
Emperor Kangxi clicked his tongue and said, "I don't know how your mind is so long, you can even come up with such a bad idea."
Emperor Kangxi was able to know Wen Liang's handwriting so quickly, and there was naturally a reason why Wen Liang didn't hide it at all.Wen Liang dragged everyone down together, revealing her identity specially.
Wen Liang is naturally not afraid of other people's schemes, he agrees to everything.As long as they can withstand the cold backlash.
Wen Liang is Yinzhen's person, so Wen Liang's actions are naturally regarded as Yinzhen's actions by default.Emperor Kangxi let it go at first, and also planned to see what Wen Liang was going to do.
Wen Liang lifted his spirits and looked at the chessboard, saying, "They are not much different from before."
Neither Yinzhen nor Wen Liang paid much attention to this rumor, but Wen Liang is more aware of the weight of future generations.As long as there are a few traces left, countless other suspicions may arise in the unofficial history of later generations.
It's enough just once, if it's troublesome to keep going one after another, Wen Liang will simply hit the other person's vitals with one blow, and don't need to continue to entangle in this matter.Completely missed this matter from the source, better than continue to entangle in the future.
Either die together, or both live in peace.
Emperor Kangxi looked at Wen Liang's chess moves with satisfaction, "This is called dedication."
Wen Liang said, "Playing chess is a better pastime."
Kangxi's spirit is not very good, which can also be seen from his appearance in the past two years.Playing chess is like a game of chess. If two masters really get serious, it will be bad for each other.
Wen Liang's previous chess skills were really not that good. In the beginning, when he played chess with Yinzhen, he always used backgammon to sneak away. It was only after he personally started to like chess that he continued to study chess records.Playing chess with Emperor Kangxi undoubtedly improved Wen Liang's chess skills a lot.
Although Wen Liang and Emperor Kangxi never tried their best to play chess, but the chessboard on the surface is like this, Wen Liang has his own chessboard in his heart, under the reflection of the two, sometimes Wen Liang is more strenuous, but this is also very beneficial obvious.Whether it is Wen Liang or Emperor Kangxi, they always have mutual love for playing chess.
It's just that Emperor Kangxi played chess more like a fight, while Wen Liang liked entertainment more. Knowing how to play chess doesn't mean you have to go all out.
Emperor Kangxi surrounded Wen Liang's chess pieces contentedly, and said seriously, "If you keep doing this, it's not a good thing."
He obviously knew that Wen Liang was controlling the chess problem.
"Someone thinks that we can enjoy each other like this."
There is always a veil in the conversation between the monarch and his ministers. Both of them know what the real meaning is, but the words on the surface still need to be hazy and inarticulate. This is the art of officialdom.
However, I don’t know if it’s because of Wen Liang himself, or whether Emperor Kangxi is really an old urchin. Wen Liang feels the high demands of Emperor Kangxi more and more. more angry.
It is also difficult to find someone who can tell the truth. Emperor Kangxi dropped a pawn and hit Wen Liang on the head, "Be honest with me."
Wen Liang pursed her lips, and immediately turned the situation around.
Emperor Kangxi became happy when he was turned into an army, and said slowly, "Wen Liang, let's leave it at that."
Wen Liang said nothing.
There were only crisp and crisp sounds in the room until the winner was finally decided.
Wen Liang spent the afternoon with Emperor Kangxi before coming out of Qianqing Palace.Liang Jiugong personally sent Wen Liang out of the palace. The group hadn't reached the gate of the palace when Liang Jiugong heard Wen Liang say, "Long live, don't you have a good rest these days?"
Liang Jiugong took a deep breath. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have said these words, but...he whispered, "The emperor really can't sleep."
The bags under the eyes of Emperor Kangxi are very obvious, and his mind is also a little chaotic. If he hadn't observed him so closely all afternoon, Wen Liang wouldn't have noticed it.After all, Emperor Kangxi's voice was tough, if not, Wen Liang would have been hard to detect.
Wen Liang frowned, "Where's the imperial doctor?"
Liang Jiugong pursed his lips, "The emperor refuses."
The imperial doctor did see him, and he took the medicine, but after it didn't work, Kangxi didn't want to see it anymore.
Wen Liang frowned, it took a long time to understand Emperor Kangxi's thoughts, time is not forgiving, it is indeed not easy to see one's own weakness.
However, it is not a good thing to avoid diseases and avoid doctors because of this.
Liang Jiugong took the risk to tell Wen Liang about this, hoping that Wen Liang could persuade him. It would not be a good thing if the emperor continued to stay awake all day.It was very easy for the former one to recuperate his body. If something happened again in the blink of an eye, Liang Jiugong felt that he was a little weak.
Wen Liang nodded at Liang Jiugong, as a response to his unfinished intention, and then got into the carriage.
Amidst the clatter of horseshoes, Wen Liang gradually came up with an idea, but this required the consent of Emperor Kangxi.
Wen Liang casually tapped his knees, and it was fitting that he should also be brought in. He is not the only one who needs to be scolded, is it?
At the beginning of the year, Yinzhen escorted food and grass to the front line as a supervising army. This is just a fixed thing every year. However, at the end of May, the court received a report from the border, and the Junggar tribe was about to move. That's the end of the matter.
On the westbound official road, there is a team that is very conspicuous, and it spreads for more than ten miles, no matter it is the guards following or the vehicles that are escorting, ordinary people dare not approach.
Yinzhen rode a horse and followed the convoy, followed by several attendants. He held the reins and looked at the endless road in front of him. He drove forward and arrived in his carriage after a while. Yinzhen handed over the tea.
Yinzhen finished drinking casually, "Go and call the other officials who supervise the transportation of grain and grass."
It's a long journey, and Yinzhen didn't know exactly when to be stationed at first, but as time went by on the road, he gradually understood it.According to today's walking distance, it is impossible to reach the next station in time.
A few accompanying officials came over soon, Yinzhen laid out the map in the spacious compartment, pointed to a certain place ahead, "According to your previous plan, you will be here the day after tomorrow, but today's speed is slow , it will take at least four days to arrive, and if it takes one day to delay, isn’t it false?”
Several officials looked at each other, and it took a while before someone dared to speak, "Master Fourteen, this is only the estimated speed, and it is actually impossible to complete. We have always been like this, so don't worry about it."
Yinzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly looked sharp, "Then you guys have falsely reported the time!"
The man quickly waved his hand and said, "Master Fourteen, this is a common practice. It's not a time of war, and the frontier doesn't need the food so much. These are just as a backup." The implication is that there is no need to pursue this matter, but to pursue it. It didn't help either.
Yinzhen knew that although he had the status of a prince, in the eyes of these people, he was just a newborn calf, and they didn't take him seriously at all.It is true that he respects him on the surface, but if he has done something in private, he will not be able to see anything.
Yinzhen didn't show it on his face, and after waving them to go back, he recruited Yang Wen, his personal attendant, "Have you heard anything these days?"
Yang Wen looked at the cheeks of the sharp-billed monkey, but he was actually a calm person. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "They were very quiet along the way. As for the people who pressed the grain and grass, although there were escort soldiers, most of them were civilians in corvée service. Can't hear anything."
Yinzhen was a little disappointed, he did notice something inappropriate along the way.He had also heard about the lack of pay and the deduction of food and pay in the army. He was powerless to do nothing about the lack of pay for the time being, and the latter must never happen.
It's just that he still noticed something inappropriate.
There is indeed something wrong with this grain truck, but no matter how Yinzhen investigates, he can't find anything wrong.
"I should have dragged Wen Liang here before leaving."
Yinzhen complained vaguely, the scene he envisioned was completely opposite to the current situation, but fortunately he also understood Huang Ama's thoughts, and it was enough to practice step by step.
……
Concubine De called Yinzhen to Yonghe Palace when she learned about the Northwest incident.
The relationship between Yinzhen and Concubine De is awkward, and the two of them rarely have other contacts, and Yinzhen often comes to see one or two according to the time is the ultimate.
Concubine De has always avoided talking with Concubine Yinzhen in person, but according to her personality, perhaps Yinzhen is the one who is most similar to Concubine De, she is always as cold as ice in front of outsiders, and has no other expressions at all.
"Fourth."
The room is lit with quiet spices, and curling cigarettes radiate from the corners, surging with the airflow in the room, calming people's minds.The furnishings in the Yonghe Palace have always been elegant and elegant, with few other prominent colors, but the incense burner in the corner is different, it looks a little brighter.
Yinzhen knew that it was a gift from Yinzhen at Concubine De's birthday banquet, and Concubine De had always loved it.
"What's the matter, ma'am?"
Yinzhen said in a low voice.
Even so, Yinzhen also probably knew why Concubine De was looking for him.Although the harem doesn't interfere in politics, how could Concubine De not know about what happened some time ago, she is naturally very concerned about it, after all, Yinzhen went to the Northwest.
"Has the fourth son received any news from Yinzhen?" Concubine De said softly.
Yinzhen shook his head, "Yinzhen's news is one every ten days, and it should be on the way right now."
Concubine De also knew about this, she pursed her lips, showing a slightly bored expression, "I really can't stop Fourteen's temper."
Now that Yinzhen has gone out, Concubine De has no reason to continue to stop, the child grows up, the wings will naturally harden, and she has her own ideas, Concubine De can't say anything.It's just that the worry is still there.It's just that Concubine De is calm and won't go to Emperor Kangxi to say these things.
Yinzhen said softly, "The fourteenth brother is only the supervisor of the army. If there is no accident, he will be able to return to Beijing after the food and grass are escorted. Don't worry, my lady."
Concubine De nodded, and then asked about Yin Zhen's situation, although it seemed normal.It's just that compared with the previous tension, there is still a gap here.
After Yinzhen came out of Yonghe Palace, he didn't go back to the mansion directly, but first went to Xian'an Palace to have a look.
Xian'an Palace, as a veritable cold palace, has no comparison with the magnificence of the Eastern Palace. It looks cold and overgrown with weeds. If there are not guards outside, it looks like a deserted place.
Yinzhen was originally a guard who was accepted by Emperor Kangxi, and the guards outside also recognized him. When Yinzhen came, they let him in, but Su Peisheng couldn't follow, and waited outside.
Yinzhen went in alone, the huge palace was only nested outside, and when he saw Yinzhen, he rushed out, "My lord is auspicious—"
"Get up, where is the second elder brother?"
Since Yinreng was abolished and has no title, the title has naturally changed.
The man from the palace said, "Second Elder Brother is inside." He trotted ahead to lead the way for Yinzhen, and Yinzhen followed the palace servants into the house, the gloomy and cold appearance was a bit chilling, Yinzhen waved his hands to let the people outside retreat , called out, "Second brother."
After a long while, there was some movement in the room, Yinfeng said in a low voice, "Why does the fourth child have time to come here?" His voice was cold and indifferent, with a sense of depression.
Yinzhen said, "Just to see my second brother."
Yinfeng smiled vicissitudes, "Fourth brother, we Ming people don't speak dark words. If Huang Ama hadn't told you to look at me, would you come to Xian'an Palace so kindly?" He came out of the shadows, wearing clothes It's a bit old, but it's very clean, but the eyes are completely different from before.
Those unruly people seem to have been polished by the ups and downs, and disappeared in this tempering.
Yinzhen said earnestly, "I've already settled everything with my second brother before, and I'm here this time just to see how my second brother is doing. If my second brother doesn't want to, I'll just leave."
Yinzhen must repay every penny, and never let himself suffer.It's just that his personality is somewhat similar to Wen Liang's, and he won't always keep it in mind after revenge.
After all, Yinfeng is his elder brother, and he is a person who stands up to his identity, if it wasn't for good fortune to trick others...
No, not good fortune, but desire.
Yinzhen thought to himself, what if the person imprisoned in Xian'an Palace is himself?
I've never experienced it, and I'll never understand that feeling.
"Forget it, sit down." It was rare for Yinreng to find someone who could talk. During the days here, even the palace officials shunned him. Who would dare to contact him.As for the subordinates outside, there are gradually fewer people who can follow.
Yinzhen sat down opposite Yinreng, the two were silent for a long while, Yinreng sneered, "You said you wanted to see me, why, is this your attitude towards people?"
He didn't wait for Yinzhen to reply and said again, "In the past few months, have you enjoyed the taste of being sought after by others? Fourth child, let me tell you, these are all imaginary, any prince, any favor is bullshit and has no power. You are a dog in Huang Ama's eyes!"
Yinzhen's eyes turned cold, "Second brother, be careful!"
Yinfeng laughed and said, "Can't you see clearly? In Huang Ama's eyes, we are all wolves, tigers and leopards waiting for his position. Now that I'm down, isn't it you?"
When he was imprisoned, Yinfeng and others were still grounded, and no one told Yinfeng about it.
Yinzhen said in a deep voice, "Second brother, stop talking nonsense, and please rest well."
He stood up and walked out, with Yinreng lazily reciting words behind his back, "Young people don't know the feeling of sorrow, they fall in love with the upper floors. In love with the upper floors, they forcefully express their sorrows in order to compose new words. Now they know all the sorrows, and they want to say it." It’s still a while, but it’s been a cool autumn!”
The deep and depressing sound was still vaguely lingering until Yinzhen went out the door.
Yinreng became more extreme and more sober.
……
Wen Liang was reading a book in the small courtyard, but this mood was not comfortable for some reason, maybe it was bored in summer and uncomfortable after staying in the house for a long time.Although there was an iceberg in the corner, the heat still spread from the outside.
When Wen Liang got up, Lu Yi naturally followed, he walked out of the house to the small courtyard, saw something, and suddenly pursed his lips, Lu Yi almost thought it was a small smile.
Lu Yi followed Wen Liang's gaze, and it turned out to be Wen Liang rolling on the tree.
Lvyi chuckled, the husband has revealed a lot of emotions these days.
When Wen Liang jumped down from the tree, it was almost mixed with a heavy weight that gave Wen Liang a heavy blow. Not to mention the weight, Wen Liang weighed it for a while, and said in a deep voice, "Lu Yi, Wen Liang is a little too fat .”
Lu Yi carefully looked at the appearance of the big cat's forehead, and nodded seriously after a while, "That's true."
The appearance of the big cat is very cute, even the people in the yard dare not touch her, but Wen Liang dotes on her, and Wen Liang is cute at first, so the people in the yard are naturally a little too pampered, whether it is cat food or daily life. There are very few activities, isn't it just gaining weight over time?
Wen Liang only knew that cats would get sick if they were overweight, so he shook Wen Liang's two front paws, and after confirming that he was indeed overweight, he coldly avoided Wen Liang's additional meals.
Fortunately, the big cat couldn't understand Wen Liang's meaning, and it meowed while rubbing against Wen Liang's chest, which sounded very cute.
Wen Liang handed Wen Liang to Lu Yi, and then went out with the books in his hands.He planned to go to the library to have a look, since Wen Liang had hardly been there since he came back.
Lu Yi motioned for Tongque to follow quickly, and then went back indoors with Wen Liang in her arms. The big cat hadn't cut its nails for half a month.
Wen Liang strolled to the path, and before leaving the garden directly, he saw a familiar figure standing by the lake.Wen Liang stared at it for a while, then came back to his senses, "Brother Dai?"
The warm voice caused the people by the lake to turn around, and it really was Dai Duo.
Dai Duo showed a surprised smile, and walked up to Wen Liang in a few steps, "Dai knew that I could meet Brother Wen here."
Wen Liang said, "When will Brother Dai come back?"
Dai Duo smiled and said, "I just entered the mansion just now, I just stood by the lake and thought about something. I planned to see the prince first, but now the time has not come back, so I wanted to visit brother Wen, but I never thought about it. Brother came out first."
Wen Liang said, "A certain book is planning to go to the library."
Dai Duo looked at the familiar direction and invited, "Why don't we go together?"
Wen Liang nodded, and the two left the Huxin Pavilion and headed for the library.
In the study building, Wen Liang and Dai Duo sat opposite each other. Dai Duo smiled lightly, "It's been rare to see Brother Wen in the past two years, and then you came back to Beijing suddenly. It's really rare to see you."
Wen Liang said quietly, "How long will Brother Dai plan to stay when you return to Beijing this time?"
Dai Duo groaned, and then said, "It will take about half a month, and then I plan to go to Sichuan."
Wen Liang pursed her lips, "Brother Dai plans to stay with Gengyao last year?"
Dai Duo shook his head and said softly, "Nian Gengyao is indeed Dai's target, but the more serious thing is another one, which is related to a matter that Dai was investigating before."
Wen Liang nodded, but did not continue to ask, different people are responsible for different things.Except for Yinzhen, no one can know the detailed inside, which is indeed the safest thing for Yinzhen.
Wen Liang suddenly thought that the seal Yinzhen had given him was still there, and he kept forgetting to return it.
"How is Brother Wen in the capital?"
Dai Duo asked with a smile. Except for letters, the two rarely communicated.After all, it takes too long to communicate, and it is impossible to always remember friends who are far away.
Wen Liang said calmly, "Everything is normal, it's okay."
Dai Duo covered his mouth and smiled, "That's right, Dai asked a stupid question indeed." With Wen Liang's ability, there are very few people who can make him have an accident.
Wen Liang didn't mention the accident he encountered before, and said solemnly, "Brother Dai is going to Sichuan, please pay close attention to Nian Gengyao's situation."
Dai Duo frowned slightly. It was impossible for Wen Liang to mention Nian Gengyao again and again for no reason. He vaguely knew that this person was indeed Yinzhen's. Could there be something strange about it?Dai Duo just nodded, planning to talk about it after going to Sichuan.
Seeing Dai Duo by chance, Wen Liang's idea of reading a book in the library was also shattered. Fortunately, Dai Duo's situation was more urgent. My lord, this is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing."
Wen Liang said nothing, he understood Dai Duo's meaning.
Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. It would be fine if the rain and dew were shared equally, but Yinzhen's specialness will attract the attention of many people.Among these elder princes right now, Yinzhen is really a living target.
Dai Duo said again, "It's just that there is one strange thing. The prince has not wanted to marry a wife so far, and we don't know what the prince's plan is. It's just that this doesn't conform to the prince's idea."
After all, Yinzhen's offspring are rare, and he has also heard the news that the prince has not entered the backyard for many years, which is also a strange point.
Wen Liang looked at Dai Duo's suspicious eyes, paused for a few breaths, "Brother Dai intends to ask someone?"
Dai Duo was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands and laughed, "Of course not, it's just a feeling." If you want to ask Wen Liang, it's better for him to see it himself. Wen Liang is a gentleman, and he doesn't think about it.
After the two of them stayed in the study building for half an hour, Yinzhen came back from the palace. Dai Duo hurried over when he heard the news. Wen Liang looked at the sun and went back to the small courtyard slowly.
Wen Liang sat down in the study, took out something from the lower shelf and placed it on the surface, carefully looking at the records left above.It is now the 49th year of Kangxi, and there are about ten years left before Emperor Kangxi passed away.
The current situation in the imperial court is clear, except for Yinzhen, the other elder brothers are somewhat weak, and because of the ambiguous attitude of Emperor Kangxi, many people dare not stand in line anymore, which makes the situation in the court somewhat delicate.
Emperor Kangxi was a good emperor, but also an emperor with a strong desire to control, which can be seen in the methods he used under his command.
After the incident with the crown prince, the emperor did not intend to re-establish the crown prince. After refuting the opinions of several ministers one after another, he suppressed their voices by means of thunder, and no one has mentioned this matter yet.
However, it does not mean that this thought can disappear.
There was a faint light in Wenliang's dark eyes, and he was very serious when he read the information. Whether it was the emperor's intention or Yinzhen's intention, it is naturally the best to maintain this situation, but other people may not like it. satisfied.
When Yinzhen was the abolished prince, he was pulled out by Emperor Kangxi as a target, and he naturally had the benefits he deserved. Watching Yinzhen gradually grow up, there will always be people who can't help it.
Wen Liang thought, if it were him, where would he start?
Right now Yinzhen is acting in a safe manner, has not participated in anything else, and is strict with his subordinates. The people under him basically understand Prince Yong's character and dare not easily anger Yinzhen.Although it is possible to catch everything in one go from the official side, it is not an easy task.
So what about personal morality?
Wen Liang half-heartedly thought that if it was about this aspect, Yinzhen really had something to say.He has never remarried since the death of Fujin a few years ago, and he has no other children for many years. If you criticize this point...
Wen Liang slowly sorted out all his thoughts, intending to cut off everything from the source.
"Go and sort out all the news that has been circulating in private these days."
"Yes." A hoarse voice replied.
Wen Liang squinted her eyes and thought about everything again, before resting with half-closed eyes.
"gentlemen?"
After a long while, Wen Liang heard Yinzhen's voice in a haze, opened his eyes, and saw a handsome figure standing opposite, the appearance of the backlight is not clear, only a faint halo can be seen.
"Grandpa?"
Wen Liang straightened up, but before he could stand up, he was pressed down by Yinzhen who walked behind him, "Since you are tired, sir, you should go to bed and rest."
Wen Liang shook her head, "I'm just a little sleepy, and I'll be fine after a short nap."
Yinzhen didn't quite agree, but looked at Wen Liang's appearance, he was still very gentle, "How about this, sir, go to bed and take a nap first?"
This was no different from what he said before, Wen Liang rejected it expressionlessly.
Yinzhen was helpless.
Ever since Wen Liang and Yinzhen became close, the two of them have spent more time meeting each other than before, and the people who served them personally knew this more or less, but no one dared to speak.
Yinzhen has a cold personality and has always been cold.Mr. Wen was even more indifferent, expressionless, and who would dare to gossip in front of these two people.Ever since Zhang Qilin cleaned up the people in the front yard several times, no one dared to gossip anymore.
Wen Liang mentioned what he was thinking just now, and then said, "Master, although this matter is not that serious, it just needs to be more careful."
After listening to Wen Liang's previous analysis, Yinzhen nodded thoughtfully. This was originally a time for winning by all means, and it would not be unusual if there were such indecent means.
After seeing Yinzhen remembering this matter, Wen Liang remembered another matter, stood up and searched for a while on the bookshelf behind him, and found a small box.
That little box was really pretty, and Yinzhen felt familiar when he saw it.
It's that seal.
Wen Liang handed the box in front of Yinzhen, and said seriously, "This is the seal that the master bestowed on a certain person, and it is of no use to a certain person since he has returned to Beijing."
Yinzhen looked at him leisurely, "Sir, do you really think so?"
Wen Liang said, "Someone just made the most correct choice."
If this seal is placed here with Wen Liang, if something happens, it will be no small matter.
Yinzhen said with a low smile, "The most correct choice is often not the best choice. Mister, please keep it. I will not take back this seal."
Wen Liang pursed his lips, although Yin Zhen's attitude was relaxed, but it was firm.
Wen Liang didn't refuse, so she put away the seal again, "I don't regret it, that's naturally the best thing."
Yinzhen smiled and said, "In this matter, I really won't regret it."
……
What Wen Liang guessed was not false. Before he started to investigate, there were some not-so-pleasing remarks.
As soon as these rumors started to appear, just as they were about to attract the attention of others, several pieces of news about others exploded one after another, making the people completely forget about this matter, and instead attracted the attention of others.
Rumors can be spread because of the places where gossip can be made, but if more explosive news appears at the same time, it will no longer be so attractive.
Yinzhen was very surprised by the news that Wen Liang threw out, and said with a smile one day, "Could it be that Mr. sent someone to their house."
The news that Wen Liang threw out was true and false, and it was all about other elder brothers' houses, from top to bottom in a short time, no matter which elder brother it was.
This real, fake, and lively scene also made the news in Yinzhen's mansion less eye-catching, and instead became one of the inconspicuous ones.
Wen Liang pursed her lips, "A mixture of true and false is always appropriate."
After all, compared to Yinzhen's childlessness, talking about the mother worm in the eighth elder brother's house seems to be a hot topic worth discussing.
Emperor Kangxi sneaked Wen Liangti into the palace a few days later.
When Wen Liang entered, he frowned slightly when he saw Emperor Kangxi serving with a chessboard.
The last time Emperor Kangxi really did everything he could to get Wen Liang to play chess seriously, Wen Liang really didn't want to experience it a second time.
Emperor Kangxi pointed to the opposite side, "Sit down."
Wen Liang sat down obediently.
"Tell me, what exactly did you do?" Emperor Kangxi laid down his first child slowly, seeming sure that Wen Liang understood what he meant.
That's great, Emperor Kangxi didn't even need to say a word, he followed the steps and acquiesced to the Wenliang situation.
Wen Liang silently touched a chess piece, and said seriously, "A certain one is just using his own way to deal with his own body." He prepared this game of chess without even thinking about it, and just did it casually.
Emperor Kangxi didn't see Wen Liang's "sinister intentions" for the time being, and soon said, "The fierce wife of Lao Ba's family?" He sneered, sounding dissatisfied.
Wen Liang casually followed the footsteps of Emperor Kangxi and stepped beside him, "My father will cut off his sons and grandchildren."
Emperor Kangxi scolded immediately, "Nonsense!"
Wen Liang pursed his lips and looked at Emperor Kangxi, only then did he come to his senses, what Wen Liang said was the slander when the rumors started earlier.
"It's a good thing that a certain one doesn't have any objections to Ba Ye's respect for his first wife." Wen Liang laid another son on the road to death, but Emperor Kangxi hadn't noticed it yet, and was listening to Wen Liang's voice.
"Three people became a tiger. The news circulating in Beijing is completely different from that at the beginning. I don't think this is my responsibility."
Emperor Kangxi made a casual noise, and said in a low voice, "It's not your responsibility, who else could it be?" If it weren't for someone secretly fueling the flames, the rumors wouldn't have spread so quickly.
Wen Liang smiled obediently, "Someone thought he was the first to do it."
Emperor Kangxi looked at the rare smile on Wen Liang's face, and shook his head angrily, "If you smile again, this matter will be over with a smile?"
Wen Liang kept this posture still, stretched out his hand to touch the corner of his mouth, took note of the curved arc, and returned to his expressionless face, "I don't smile anymore."
Emperor Kangxi choked and was speechless.
Compared with when he looked at Wen Liang with no expression, Emperor Kangxi still wanted to look at Wen Liang's extremely rare smiling face just now.
"It's really..." Emperor Kangxi laughed angrily, and surrounded Wen Liang's chess pieces viciously, but before launching the offensive, he noticed the current appearance on the chessboard. Chess moves are more like children doing at will.
Emperor Kangxi blinked.
Wen Liang blinked.
"Little bastard!!"
Standing outside the door, Liang Jiugong could even hear the roar inside the house. He stretched out his little finger to pick out his ears, and looked at the sunlight outside leisurely. The weather is really good today.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Wen Liang and Emperor Kangxi were sitting in front of the chessboard, and Emperor Kangxi said seriously, "If you play this game indiscriminately again, I will put you in confinement."
Wen Liang also nodded seriously, proving that he knew about it.The head-knocking just now was no joke.
The flipping accident in the half-quarter of an hour just disappeared.
"Come again, you were so angry that you almost forgot what to say just now." Emperor Kangxi glared at Wenliang.
Emperor Kangxi did not pay attention to this matter at the beginning. This was not spread from the official level, but spread among the people in the capital as gossip.It's okay if it's normal, the news that spreads will naturally be suppressed, but this time it's different.
The news broadcast by Wen Liangsan is true and false, covering a wide range of areas, but it is also a small and innocuous issue, even if Wen Liang is found in front of him, nothing will happen.And because there are too many people involved, while some people are covering it up, there are naturally people who don't like it and are provoking it. This time, instead of suppressing the rumors, they became more and more provocative.
Emperor Kangxi clicked his tongue and said, "I don't know how your mind is so long, you can even come up with such a bad idea."
Emperor Kangxi was able to know Wen Liang's handwriting so quickly, and there was naturally a reason why Wen Liang didn't hide it at all.Wen Liang dragged everyone down together, revealing her identity specially.
Wen Liang is naturally not afraid of other people's schemes, he agrees to everything.As long as they can withstand the cold backlash.
Wen Liang is Yinzhen's person, so Wen Liang's actions are naturally regarded as Yinzhen's actions by default.Emperor Kangxi let it go at first, and also planned to see what Wen Liang was going to do.
Wen Liang lifted his spirits and looked at the chessboard, saying, "They are not much different from before."
Neither Yinzhen nor Wen Liang paid much attention to this rumor, but Wen Liang is more aware of the weight of future generations.As long as there are a few traces left, countless other suspicions may arise in the unofficial history of later generations.
It's enough just once, if it's troublesome to keep going one after another, Wen Liang will simply hit the other person's vitals with one blow, and don't need to continue to entangle in this matter.Completely missed this matter from the source, better than continue to entangle in the future.
Either die together, or both live in peace.
Emperor Kangxi looked at Wen Liang's chess moves with satisfaction, "This is called dedication."
Wen Liang said, "Playing chess is a better pastime."
Kangxi's spirit is not very good, which can also be seen from his appearance in the past two years.Playing chess is like a game of chess. If two masters really get serious, it will be bad for each other.
Wen Liang's previous chess skills were really not that good. In the beginning, when he played chess with Yinzhen, he always used backgammon to sneak away. It was only after he personally started to like chess that he continued to study chess records.Playing chess with Emperor Kangxi undoubtedly improved Wen Liang's chess skills a lot.
Although Wen Liang and Emperor Kangxi never tried their best to play chess, but the chessboard on the surface is like this, Wen Liang has his own chessboard in his heart, under the reflection of the two, sometimes Wen Liang is more strenuous, but this is also very beneficial obvious.Whether it is Wen Liang or Emperor Kangxi, they always have mutual love for playing chess.
It's just that Emperor Kangxi played chess more like a fight, while Wen Liang liked entertainment more. Knowing how to play chess doesn't mean you have to go all out.
Emperor Kangxi surrounded Wen Liang's chess pieces contentedly, and said seriously, "If you keep doing this, it's not a good thing."
He obviously knew that Wen Liang was controlling the chess problem.
"Someone thinks that we can enjoy each other like this."
There is always a veil in the conversation between the monarch and his ministers. Both of them know what the real meaning is, but the words on the surface still need to be hazy and inarticulate. This is the art of officialdom.
However, I don’t know if it’s because of Wen Liang himself, or whether Emperor Kangxi is really an old urchin. Wen Liang feels the high demands of Emperor Kangxi more and more. more angry.
It is also difficult to find someone who can tell the truth. Emperor Kangxi dropped a pawn and hit Wen Liang on the head, "Be honest with me."
Wen Liang pursed her lips, and immediately turned the situation around.
Emperor Kangxi became happy when he was turned into an army, and said slowly, "Wen Liang, let's leave it at that."
Wen Liang said nothing.
There were only crisp and crisp sounds in the room until the winner was finally decided.
Wen Liang spent the afternoon with Emperor Kangxi before coming out of Qianqing Palace.Liang Jiugong personally sent Wen Liang out of the palace. The group hadn't reached the gate of the palace when Liang Jiugong heard Wen Liang say, "Long live, don't you have a good rest these days?"
Liang Jiugong took a deep breath. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have said these words, but...he whispered, "The emperor really can't sleep."
The bags under the eyes of Emperor Kangxi are very obvious, and his mind is also a little chaotic. If he hadn't observed him so closely all afternoon, Wen Liang wouldn't have noticed it.After all, Emperor Kangxi's voice was tough, if not, Wen Liang would have been hard to detect.
Wen Liang frowned, "Where's the imperial doctor?"
Liang Jiugong pursed his lips, "The emperor refuses."
The imperial doctor did see him, and he took the medicine, but after it didn't work, Kangxi didn't want to see it anymore.
Wen Liang frowned, it took a long time to understand Emperor Kangxi's thoughts, time is not forgiving, it is indeed not easy to see one's own weakness.
However, it is not a good thing to avoid diseases and avoid doctors because of this.
Liang Jiugong took the risk to tell Wen Liang about this, hoping that Wen Liang could persuade him. It would not be a good thing if the emperor continued to stay awake all day.It was very easy for the former one to recuperate his body. If something happened again in the blink of an eye, Liang Jiugong felt that he was a little weak.
Wen Liang nodded at Liang Jiugong, as a response to his unfinished intention, and then got into the carriage.
Amidst the clatter of horseshoes, Wen Liang gradually came up with an idea, but this required the consent of Emperor Kangxi.
Wen Liang casually tapped his knees, and it was fitting that he should also be brought in. He is not the only one who needs to be scolded, is it?
