Full grade Daiyu in the Red Chamber

A few days after Ba Ye married a girl from Nian's family, some gossip spread out from nowhere. It is only said that Zhang Mingde, a sorcerer, once looked at Ba Ye and asserted that he must be rich in the future.

The dignified prince is already a noble person, how expensive can he be? Unless...

In just a few days, such rumors have spread all over the streets and alleys. People with names, noses and eyes have a little more credibility. In addition, the prince's behavior has become more and more absurd recently, as if Suo Ertu died After getting married, it was like a complete change of person, and there was no trace of being a prince, which made people doubt and speculate. Could it be that the eighth master is really the "noble man"?
There was a lot of discussion everywhere, how could Ba Ye not know about it? His face immediately turned pale when he heard such a thing.

He and Zhang Mingde had indeed met once, and the words were indeed spoken by Zhang Mingde, but even if he lost his mind, he didn't dare to spread such words carelessly! Who is harming him? Zhang Mingde? So who is behind Zhang Mingde's instigation?
Yinhu just gritted his teeth with hatred, but the urgent task at the moment is not to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but to think about how to resolve this crisis. Such words are equivalent to implying that his eighth master is like an emperor. Doubt his intentions? I'm afraid everyone thinks that he is deliberately creating momentum for himself!
Just like that woman from the Tong family died suddenly, there was no need for any evidence at all, and the blame was firmly pinned on his head. Even if he found evidence to prove it, others would only think that he was forcibly Sophistry, it is really hard to argue!
Yinhu was full of trouble at the moment, and before he could figure out a suitable solution, he heard someone from the palace summon him.

When he was about to go out and get into the carriage with a feeling of apprehension, he unexpectedly saw that the fourth and ninth children next door were also about to go out, and his heart skipped a beat.

Did Huang Ama summon the other brothers?
What exactly is the intention?
What made Yinhu even more apprehensive was that when he arrived in the palace, he found out that Huang Ama not only summoned all the brothers, but also all the royal family members and officials above the third rank. The battle is not bad.

This is a big move.

Everyone looked at each other in silence, the same thought popped up in their hearts, and they couldn't help but look solemn, but there was only one person who seemed to be unaffected at all, and that was His Highness the Crown Prince.

I saw his eyes swept over the brothers, especially focusing on Prince Zhijun and Eighth Master. There was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, which seemed a bit frivolous, which was different from the elegant and noble demeanor of the prince in the past. It's completely different, like a different person.

All the people stood upright and waited. In the huge Qianqing Palace, there was no other sound except breathing. The atmosphere was so quiet that it made people break out in a cold sweat for no reason.

I don't know how long I waited until I heard a sharp voice, "The emperor is here!"

Everyone quickly knelt down and shouted long live three times.

"Flat body."

Everyone responded, but they all kept their eyes on their noses, their noses, their noses and their hearts, and felt very good.

Ever since he was injured, Kangxi has become much thinner, his face has become more aged without flesh, his cheekbones have become prominent, and he has a more stern and mean look, and I don't know if it is because Because of the damage to his vitality, there is always a trace of fatigue in his eyes, giving people a feeling of lack of energy.

In fact, this is not an illusion of others. Kangxi’s own feelings are clearer. He is indeed more and more exhausted. He used to be able to review memorials until midnight, and he was still very energetic after sleeping for two hours. Sometimes he even finished his work in the middle of the night. It doesn't affect anything if you can spoil a concubine when you are interested.

But it’s no longer possible now. If he rests later, his head will be groggy all day the next day. If he reads more memorials, he will even feel dizzy and dizzy, often looking at the mountains of memorials. Frustration of powerlessness.

His eyes swept over the group of high-spirited sons, and Kangxi's complexion couldn't help becoming darker, with gloomy eyes.

Although all the elder brothers lowered their heads, they still clearly felt the oppression of the gaze, and their heartbeats instinctively accelerated a lot, this was out of natural fear of the imperial father.

"I heard a strange thing today, and I couldn't make up my mind for a while, so I asked you to come and consult with me." Kangxi said lightly, with no trace of joy or anger in his tone, "There is a magician named Zhang Mingde who is eight Elder brother looked at the physiognomy and asserted that eighth elder brother will be very expensive in the future."

really!
Yinhu's heart skipped a beat, and he stood up quickly and said: "He's just a charlatan, he's always talking nonsense to fool people into eating and drinking, it's really unbelievable, Huang Ama really doesn't need to take it to heart."

"Oh? You really think so? Since you believe that such a person is a liar, why did you ask someone to look at it? And why didn't he be punished immediately when he fabricated such a rebellious statement? On the contrary, you allowed this 'command' to spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital... I would like to ask, what is your intention?"

Yinhu's face turned pale, and he knelt down with a plop, with cold sweat pouring out of his forehead, "Huang Ama Mingjian, this person was originally brought by a disciple next to Erchen. Erchen didn't believe it at all. To save face, the doorman casually asked Zhang Mingde to take a look, but who would have thought that he would utter wild words... Seeing that his gray hair was over half a century old, my son didn't have the heart to seriously care about him, and only verbally warned and reprimanded him. That's all for now, as for how it got out, I really don't know..."

"You are kind and kind-hearted. No wonder everyone calls you 'Eight Wise King'."

Kangxi's words of unknown meaning caused a chill in people's hearts inexplicably.

"Huang Ama..."

Before he could continue to defend himself, the crown prince interrupted him, "Huang Ama Xu doesn't know something, and Zhang Mingde is well-known in the capital, and many people like to spend a lot of money to ask him for fortune-telling. Very accurate, the common people all respect him as a living god, even the son-in-law who lives in the palace has heard about this man, the son thought that this liar might be able to deceive ten or eight people, but he would not be able to deceive all the people in the capital You were all fooled by him, right? Since he can be so sought after, he must have some real skills."

Yinhu suddenly raised his head and looked at the prince. These words were clearly pushing him into the pit of fire! Could it be that the prince was plotting against him behind his back?
Yinhuti couldn't help raising his eyebrows, feeling weird.

Why is the prince so eager to jump out now? Are you not afraid of being blamed? Why is this person acting more and more out of order?
Kangxi also looked at the prince, "You mean that you think this person's words are still somewhat credible?"

"It's better to believe what you have than to believe what you don't have."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone couldn't help but looked at the prince in unison.

Is this an attempt to kill Ba Ye? Could it be that the prince feels that Ba Ye is threatening his status? Can't he? The prince in my impression is not such a person who is like a snake, let alone a brother, in front of the emperor. Is it not good to be so face-to-face? It is inevitable that you will be called disrespectful, and it will inevitably attract the wrath of the Eighth Master and his party. Is it worth it?
Even fourth master couldn't restrain his surprised eyes.

Huang Ama summoned so many people with great fanfare today, and specified that he did not intend to expose the matter easily. It is impossible to guarantee that he did not want to take this opportunity to photograph Lao Ba. He did not believe that the prince's mind would not be able to see this. Since In this way, it is enough to just watch from the sidelines, so why jump out by yourself? Isn’t this superfluous? It also brings criticism to myself for no reason. As a prince, he only needs to hang up high and maintain his princely demeanor when it is not necessary, like This kind of notoriety against brothers should not be touched. Where did the prince sing this?
Before Yinhu could speak, the supporter jumped out.

"His Royal Highness is making a fuss out of a molehill. Just use the words of a random commoner as a real punishment. If you want to deal with someone like this in the future, you can just ask people to go outside and talk nonsense? It's a joke!"

The one who spoke was Prince Yu Baotai, the son of the former Prince Yu Fuquan and Kangxi's nephew. Fuquan and the Kangxi brothers have always had a very close relationship. , known as the "virtuous king", it is precisely because of this relationship and credit that Kangxi cared for Baotai after Fuquan passed away, no wonder he dared to speak out.

Unexpectedly, the crown prince glanced at him, sneered, and directly pulled out the whip wrapped around his waist like a decoration, and lashed at him, with violent eyes in his eyes, he said: "What are you, you dare to reprimand Gu!"

Everyone was stunned, even Baotai was stunned for a moment and forgot to dodge.

In the Qianqing Palace, in front of the Holy One, the dignified prince dared to flog the royal clan in public? It is simply ridiculous!
"His Royal Highness!" Yinhu gritted his teeth and rushed forward to stop him, "How can you be presumptuous in front of Huang Ama? Quickly stop!"

The prince was not frightened by the "Huang Ama" he carried out at all, but even rewarded him with a few whips.
