Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 465

In the place of Dongzhuang, Shengjia is walking here.

Snowflakes were flying outside, and I heard the northwest wind whistling past, with a shrill voice.

Inside the imperial tent, it was as warm as spring, making one feel the heat blowing against one's face.

The sixteenth elder brother was wearing big woolen clothes, and standing behind the fifteenth elder brother, he felt that his back was sweaty and damp, and the heat was unstoppable.

He lowered his head, thinking wildly in his mind, it seems that the report in the palace that the emperor's father is not feeling well is true, otherwise why would he be so chilly?
Sheng Jia went out of Beijing every winter, whether it was the charcoal basin in the imperial tent or the daily use of charcoal, there were fixed rules.

Standing in thick clothes for a while is unbearable, which is obviously much hotter than every year.

Although his body was hot, but when he heard Kangxi's cold snort, Elder Sixteen's heart couldn't help but feel a little cold.

"Yinhu was born to a bitch of Xinzheku. He was very sinister since he was a child. He listened to the words of Zhang Mingde, a face-to-face man, so he betrayed his ministers and found someone to murder the second elder brother. The whole country knew it. He killed the second elder brother, I don’t necessarily think about my bow. I was ill before. All the ministers took care of my eighth elder brother. I was very helpless, so I released Yinfeng, which cannot be registered. Within a few years, I was extremely depressed.” Kangxi’s voice became more and more cold when he said this.

Then, he talked about the "killing eagle" incident a few days ago, and said: "Since then, the kindness between me and Yinhu father and son has ceased. It is difficult to force me to abdicate and establish Yinhu with the rise of the army."

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Elder Brother Zhu who was standing in front of Elder Zhu.

The tenth elder brother only felt his whole body tremble, and he couldn't say a word that he wanted to defend the eighth elder brother before, but just bowed his head more and more.

His palms were full of sweat.

Although the man in front is his amah, he is also his king.Thunder, rain and dew are all about Jun's kindness, how could he not be afraid?Wouldn't it be unfair if this "Jun's kindness" was bestowed on him?
Kangxi narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced over the tenth elder brother, looked at the twelfth elder brother, the fifteenth elder brother, the sixteenth elder brother, and the seventeenth elder brother, and said: "Te Yuer and others, everyone Elder brother should remember my kindness and follow my superior's order, only then will he be a son and minister. Otherwise, when I am dying in the future, there will be a matter of putting me in the Qianqing palace and fighting with your swords. Yinhu can't stand As the crown prince, he hates me to the bone, and so do his henchmen. The second elder brother is rebellious and has repeatedly lost people's hearts; Yinhu has repeatedly won hearts, this person's danger is a hundred times that of the second elder brother!"

All the elder brothers were listening with their heads bowed. Seeing that Kangxi didn't even care about the taboo of life and death, he spoke louder and louder. He was already gnashing his teeth, and his voice was exhausted. No one dared to stand anymore.

After Kangxi finished speaking, he frowned inadvertently, his face flushed red, and his left arm couldn't help trembling.

Wei Zhu saw him nearby, and knew that Lord Long Live was very angry, and he was afraid that he might not be in good health, but he didn't dare to be disrespectful, so he could only worry secretly if he made any noise at this time.

Kangxi turned around slowly, turned his back to the elder brothers, supported the case, and said: "Wait, can you write it down?"

"I've made a note of it!" All elder brothers said in unison.

"Hmph! Just write it down. I'm not deaf or blind yet, so I know it well. Let's know for myself. Kneel down!" Kangxi said in a deep voice.

All elder brothers responded in unison, stood up and bowed and exited the imperial tent.

The twelfth elder brother was always afraid of right and wrong, but thinking about how the emperor disliked the eighth elder brother, he couldn't help but sighed in a low voice.

As the son of an emperor, even if he had expectations for that position, it was normal.

Even if he is as humble as him, he had a big dream in his early years, but he never dared to speak to others.

Thinking of this, Brother Twelve suddenly felt embarrassed.After finally getting a chance to be a follower, but encountering such a thing, wouldn't it be wronged if someone suspected him?

With scruples in his heart, he even got tired of talking, and he bowed his hands to the elder brothers with a lot of worry, bowed his head and went by himself
Elder Brother Shi's face was dull, he glanced at the younger elder brothers with complicated eyes, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, he shook his sleeves, and returned to his tent.

Here, only the [-]th elder brother, the [-]th elder brother and the [-]th elder brother are left.

The fifteenth elder brother has always been calm, the tenth elder brother's numbness, and the twelfth elder brother's worry are not taken to heart.

The wind and snow were getting stronger, he tightened his neckline, shivered, and said to Brother Sixteen and Brother Seventeen: "Hurry up and go back and rest, carefully, the wind blows and catches a cold!"

All of a sudden, everyone left.

The sixteenth brother and the seventeenth brother looked at each other, but couldn't calm down in their hearts, and the two brothers went to the sixteenth brother's tent together.

The emperor had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.Seeing that the eighth elder brother is so supported by the courtiers, how can he not mind?

However, the emperor's father kept saying that all elder brothers respect the "way of sons and ministers", but did he still remember in his heart that these princes and elder brothers were not only his ministers, but also his sons?

Although the concubine Liang was born with a criminal background, she was once favored by thousands of people. Now that she is dead, she is a "Xin Zheku bitch" in the words of the emperor.

Although the eighth elder brother's background is not as good as the other older elder brothers, his mother was promoted to the concubine and was raised by the concubine Hui, and the wife he married was also extremely noble.

Now, the majestic prince elder brother wants to return to his original form. Years of hard work will be reduced to ashes, and he will be branded as "born by a bitch of Xinzheku".

Could it be that, without the blessing of the imperial father, the concubine Liang could give birth to a child by herself?
The sixteenth elder brother was really depressed, because his biological mother, Wang Concubine, was a Han Chinese and came from Jiangnan. In the eyes of those ministers, his background was not as good as that of the eighth elder brother.

In the early years, there were rumors that his mother-in-law was a nobleman in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Li family sent her to the emperor's father to try out.

Brother Seventeen saw that Brother Sixteen was silent, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Sixteen, those two Haidongqings, are the starlings really mourning too much and sending them for the injustice of the concubine?"

When Concubine Liang passed away, it was not long after the "Second Abandoned Prince", so the funeral was rushed at the beginning, and there was no posthumous title on Kangxi's side.

Elder Sixteen glanced at Elder Seventeen, and said, "Do you believe this statement? He has been a patient person since he was a child. He has been thinking about that position all these years, and he is going to be dazed. How dare he cut himself off? The way out? He sent someone to send Hai Dongqing in order to curry favor with the emperor's father, why is he looking for death?"

Although there is always resentment towards the eighth elder brother and the seventeenth elder brother, but thinking of the vicious words the emperor said, he also feels a little hurt to himself.

However, now is not the time for emotion.

Since Hai Dongqing was not dying when the eighth elder brother sent someone to send it, was it an accident, or was someone tampering with it?

Who would be the one who can be so naughty?
It's really scary to stab a knife in the back like this without showing the mountains and not showing the water. You have to have a bottom in your heart and hide far away.

It's not just the seventeenth elder brother who thought of this, but the sixteenth elder brother.

He suddenly remembered that Cao Yong had vaguely told him that the fourteenth elder brother was not a hardcore "Eight Lord Party", and he was afraid that he had the intention to accumulate strength and replace him.

Thinking of the closeness between elder brother fifteen and elder brother fourteen, elder brother sixteen couldn't help feeling cold.

At this time, he would rather the emperor's father take advantage of the problem and spread his anger on the eighth elder brother; otherwise, after careful investigation, if the same elder brother gets involved in something, wouldn't it be a catastrophe?

Thinking of this, Elder Sixteen stopped in his tracks, waved his hand at Elder Seventeen, and said, "Brother Seventeen, go back first, I remembered that I have something to ask Brother Fifteen, let's go to him first..."

*
Beijing, Xidan archway.

After hitting the Yamen of Taipu Temple, Xiaoman brought up a big hair cloak. Cao Yong looked up at the sky, and the snow was getting heavier.

Although the weather is gloomy, Cao Yong's mood is exceptionally good.

Parents and son have been in Beijing for three days, and now they are in the Yamen, and they really feel like returning home.

"Home" is such a warm word.

Although it is also home, and there are wives and children at home, but because it is where the parents live, the weight of this "home" is several tenths heavier.

Not to mention, there is still that chubby, burly eldest son at home.

In the past two days, it has become Cao Yong's pleasure to hug his son and sway his son twice.

Tianyou was still afraid of him at the beginning, and when he was pulled over, he opened his mouth and asked his grandfather and grandmother to make the decision.After being "ravaged" by him a few times, the little guy also likes this game, and his attitude towards Cao Yong is also a little closer, not as alienated as before.

Nowadays, everyone in the world pays attention to "restraining oneself and restoring rituals", and has its own prescribed way of getting along with father and son.

This "caring for grandchildren but not children" is the rule of bannermen.Therefore, Cao Yin couldn't see Cao Yong teasing Tianyou all day long, and wanted to reprimand him, but also sympathized with the reunion of their father and son after a long absence.

He had no choice but to chat with Li Shi in private. Li Shi was worried that because of the long separation, his grandson would not be close to his son and daughter-in-law, and he wished to see their father and son making out.

Inevitably, she persuaded Cao Yin a few more words, turn a blind eye, the left and right sons are always sensible, and they don't need to worry about them as parents.

Even if Tianyou was to be closer, it was only to make the relationship between father and son closer, and it was not an unreasonable thing.

There are some things that Li Shi can only slander in his heart, but did not say them out.That is, when Cao Shun was added in the early years, Cao Yin's doting on his youngest son was once inferior to that of Cao Yong today.

In addition to grandson Tianyou and granddaughter Tianhui, Li Shi is also very rare for his grandson Hang Seng.

Looking at this strong and solid calf, it is not much younger than Tianyou, but the two brothers are a companion, so that the brother Tianyou will not be alone.

It's strange to say that although Hang Seng is usually very hard-working and doesn't have a moment's peace of mind, when he is in Li's house, he is very obedient and honest.Sitting neatly next to Mrs. Li, with a smile on his face, he was not noisy, and he could eat whatever he gave.

In this way, Li Shi likes it more and more.

These children, plus Zuo Cheng and Zuo Zhu brothers from Tian's side, plus Niu Niu from Mr. Zhuang's yard, every time they come to pay their respects, they are just a bunch of little heads.

On Li's side, however, she was only happy, and said to Cao Yin several times that there are many children, which is a sign of a prosperous population.

Don't talk about how Li's teasing his grandson, just say that Cao Yong hurried out of the yamen, and when he was about to reach the gate of the mansion, he saw two people walking slowly in front of him.

Both of them were wrapped in thick fur cloaks and hoods on their heads, walking leisurely in the snow.

Cao Yong recognized one of them as Mr. Zhuang, so it goes without saying that the one standing beside him who is half a head taller is the little monk Zhiran.

Although there are differences between monks and common people, Zhiran and Cao Yong are not polite people.

Cao Yong directly asked someone to tidy up a small yard in the front yard, and made it a quiet room for Zhiran, asking him to stay.

Zhiran also accepted it directly, without thinking about finding a temple to live in.

Cao Yong was going to work in the Yamen, and Cao Yin returned to the capital at the beginning, and he was too busy to socialize.

Because Zhiran came to the capital to see the prosperous world, so Cao Yong entrusted him to Mr. Zhuang.

The two of them, the old and the young, are both open-minded people, but there is a bit of speculation.

I heard that in the past two days, Mr. Zhuang took Zhiran to the front door to listen to the opera and see the falling snow on the two of them. This is walking back through the front door.

Cao Yong got off his horse, handed the reins to Xiao Man, went to Mr. Zhuang, and asked with a smile: "What drama did you hear today?"

"Today is the opening of "Saving the Wind and Dust" by the Qinghe class, but tomorrow will be lively, "Single-knife Club"!" Mr. Zhuang returned with a smile.

Zhiran turned her head to look at Cao Yong with a smile on her face.

Zhiran was about the same stature as Cao Yong, and when he first arrived in the capital, he didn't have too thick warm clothes, so Cao Yong asked Chuyu to find some new clothes that he didn't have, and sent them to him.

The hood covered his bald head, and against the backdrop of the plain satin robe on his body, he was really a handsome young man.

Seeing Cao Yong, he wondered if he should find a reason to persuade Zhiran.

He originally took the precepts only to repay the kindness of his master's ten years of nurturing.

Now that his master has passed away for many years, and he himself is getting bigger, whether to continue in Buddhism or return to the mortal world, it is a good idea to think about it...
