Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 780 Enchanting

Rao Sixteen elder brother knew something was wrong, he was on guard in his heart, but he was still terrified.

Concubine Yi and Concubine De have already turned around, Brother Sixteen hastily followed.He finally understood why he had to tie up a house of uterine maids, including the palace servants around the two concubines.

"Brother Sixteen, how should we deal with this?" Concubine Yi stroked her chest and asked with some hope.

After living most of his life and staying in the palace for so long, he is not lacking in knowledge, but he was also bluffed.

Elder Sixteen finally came to his senses at this moment, only feeling that his back was wet with cold sweat.Hearing what Concubine Yi said, he only had a wry smile in his heart, as the two concubines can't make up their minds, is it his son's turn to talk?
This is no longer a matter of palace affairs. No matter who is inside, they still have royal blood on them, so even if they are dealt with, they will not be able to speak.The emperor must be consulted before the final decision can be made.

The two sent him over, but they were thinking that someone would deliver a letter to the imperial court.The imperial father's health is not good, and there are incidents such as "the crown prince's restoration" and "inviting the crown prince to be appointed". If you use this matter to talk about it, how can it be good?

Thinking of this, Elder Sixteen's heart turned cold, and he also hated Concubine De and Concubine Yi somewhat.Even if Elder Sixteen is holding a post in the Ministry of Internal Affairs now, there is no need to pull him into the water for such secret affairs of the court.

The Qianqing Palace keeps the servants on duty. If there is anything in the inner palace, it will only take a few hours to send it to the imperial court.

This pulls into the sixteenth elder brother, so that outsiders will not be sent to deliver letters. Even if he is a prince elder brother, he will not be silenced, but it is normal to offend the emperor's father because of this.

It would be alright if there was only Elder Sixteen alone, Concubine Wang is now in front of the imperial court.From the son to the mother, the concubine Wang lost the favor of the emperor, this is something the sixteenth elder brother can't bear.

When something like this happened, I still don't forget to harm others. I don't know who did it, or the two of them were in collusion.

Elder Sixteen quickly glanced at Concubine Yi and Concubine De, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "Concubine Yi, this is the internal affairs of the Six Palaces, so naturally the two concubines are in charge. My son and I are terrified, and right now we have lost our minds. "As he spoke, he staggered and fell to the ground. His forehead just hit the cabinet next to him, and he was dripping with blood.

Brother Sixteen had a pale face, showing pain.

Concubine Yi and Concubine De were startled, if Elder Sixteen did something wrong in front of them, it would be hard not to be talked about by those who cared.Although at their age, they have status and status, even a small mistake can't bring them down.But the more this is the case, the more you need to be cautious in your words and deeds, otherwise you will ruin your reputation and attract the emperor's disgust.

"Brother Sixteen, does it hurt? Quickly pass it on to the imperial physician." Because everyone was talking privately and the maids were standing at the door, Concubine Yi couldn't help raising her voice.

It was De Concubine who was calmer, and said: "Sister Yi, no. This succession will cause even more commotion."

Only then did Concubine Yi realize that there was something taboo in the back room, she hesitated for a while, and she seemed to have some scruples when she wanted to lean down to help Elder Sixteen.

Brother Sixteen covered his forehead with his hand, only to feel that his eyes were blood red, and the wound on his head hurt badly.He got up unsteadily, bowed and said, "What Concubine Demu said is true, are they all sons and servants? I am so tired that Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine Concubine is so tired... It is not good to lead the imperial doctor here, and to trouble Concubine Concubine Concubine Mu. Call a few people and send this son back to elder brother's place..." By the end, he was already in a cold sweat.

Right now, there is no better idea.Concubine Yi had no choice but to call a servant to come in and arrange for someone to send Elder Sixteen back to Elder Brother's place.

The sixteenth elder brother was hit hard, and he passed out before reaching the elder brother's place.Zhao Feng followed Brother Sixteen, his teeth itching with hatred.

Just now, he was waiting in the corridor.Although I don't know what happened in the house, but I don't believe that my master just "accidentally fell and hit".No matter which empress it is, since it is not the middle palace, it has no right to beat and scold the prince.

Zhao Feng hated it in his heart, and he knew the severity. He told the eunuch who was carrying the chariot to go quickly, and at the same time sent a young eunuch to the imperial hospital to ask for an imperial doctor.

It's just that he didn't want his master to take this anger for nothing, lead the way back to elder brother's place, and pick up the nearest way, which is also the least betrayal way.In this way, even if Concubine De and Concubine Yi wanted to hide this matter, it would not be easy.

Therefore, the guards on duty that day saw the sixteenth elder brother being carried out of the inner palace with his face covered in blood.

There is no secret in the capital, by night, almost everyone knows about it.It's just that they are all confused, and it's against the rules to say that the concubine is acting like a prince, it's too blatant.If there is something inappropriate about Elder Sixteen, it shouldn't be.He took over the Ministry of Internal Affairs not in a day or two.

No one dared to act rashly, but more and more people were paying attention to the situation in the inner court.

The elder brother's place where the sixteenth elder brother lived was not very big, so the sixteenth elder brother was carried into the yard, and the sixteenth Fujin got the news and brought people out to welcome him.

Seeing that Elder Sixteen's life and death were unknown, Fujin Shiliu's eyes were already red, and he ordered people to carry Elder Sixteen directly to the inner hall for placement.

"What's going on? Why did you become like this?" Shiliu Fujin asked Zhao Feng with tears in his eyes as he watched everyone put Elder Sixteen away.

Zhao Feng knelt on the ground, he didn't dare to hide a word, he didn't dare to say a word, since the sixteenth elder brother received the second concubine's handbook to enter the palace.

Hearing that it was related to his aunt, Shiliu Fujin bit his lip hard.If it wasn't for worrying about Elder Sixteen, I was afraid that she would run to ask my aunt immediately.

At this moment, the imperial physician has arrived.

It's just that he was hit hard and lost a lot of blood, so he fainted.The imperial physician prescribed two prescriptions for nourishing blood, and then withdrew...

Jingyang Palace, inside the apse.

Elder Brother Twelve turned pale and bowed to listen to Concubine Yi and Concubine De's explanation.When such strange things happen in the inner court, they always have to go to the imperial court to discuss their ideas.Things are not easy to publicize, their identities are limited, they are not allowed to leave the palace without the emperor's order, so they can only trouble Twelve Elder Brothers.

Elder Brother Twelve thought about what he had just seen, and felt his feet go weak.Even though he usually kept quiet and thought about it, he knew that this was not a good job, so he forced himself to calm down and said: "Reporting to the two mothers and concubines, the son-in-law has followed the order of Huang Ama to work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but what he is in charge of is only the Queen Mother. As for the funeral, the sixteenth brother has always been in charge of the inner court affairs, so it's really not easy for sons and daughters to intervene."

Concubine De glanced at the pool of solidified blood on the side of the cabinet, and said nothing; Concubine Yi sighed, and said: "If Elder Sixteen is well, I wouldn't be so eager to invite you here. This matter should not be delayed for a long time. How to deal with it depends on the emperor's words. Seeing that it is getting late, Elder Brother Twelve should leave the palace as soon as possible. There is really no one to trust in Ben Gong and Sister De, so we can only entrust it to Elder Twelve. The twelfth elder brother should know about the relationship between them. If it is not handled confidentially, even the twelfth elder brother will have nothing to do with it." As he said that, he did not refuse the party that the twelve elder brothers refused, and immediately called people to send ten The second elder brother went out.

Brother Twelve came out of Jingyang Palace, looked back inside, and knew that he could not escape this catastrophe.There was already a threat in Yifei's words.Even if I know it's inappropriate, I still have to bite the bullet and go to Xiaotangshan...

When Cao Song was on duty in the palace today, from Shenchu ​​([-]:[-] pm) to Xuchu ([-]:[-] pm), he also heard the news that Elder Sixteen was "injured".

Elder Sixteen has always been close to the Cao family, Cao Song of course pays attention, and asks a few more questions, but the more he asks, the more frightened he becomes, knowing that it is true that they are almost inseparable.

After he was on duty, he hurried to elder brother's office and went directly to find Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng has been with Brother Sixteen for many years and knows that Brother Sixteen trusts Cao Yong the most.This Cao Song is Cao Yong's cousin, and he has always been close to Brother Sixteen.

He told Cao Song about the general process of the matter, and then told the current situation of the sixteenth elder brother.

Hearing that Elder Sixteen had woken up at dusk, Cao Song was relieved to leave the palace after drinking the medicine and taking a rest.

He didn't go home directly, but came to the West Mansion, and as soon as he entered the gate, he saw Xiao Man coming out from inside.Seeing him, Xiaoman hurriedly called a thousand times: "The second master is here, and the uncle is pinching him. It has been several times to send the little one out to watch."

On Cao Yong's side, when he came back from the Yamen, he heard the news that Elder Sixteen had an accident.He was anxious, but now that his status is limited, it is not easy to enter and leave the palace at will, so he can only wait for Cao Song to come back.

Cao Yong already knew about the fact that Concubine De and Concubine Yi called sixteen elder brothers.But he didn't believe that these two concubines would take action against Brother Sixteen.

The inner court has been in trouble for decades, and they are all the best of the best. How could they do such a thing of giving others a handle.

However, according to what Zhao Feng said, the sixteen elder brothers were injured.And it was fine before meeting the two concubines, and then it was like this.

An idea came to Cao Yong's mind, and he thought of the "self-pollution" thing that Brother Sixteen said during the day.If it wasn't for the two concubines, she would be the only one who could hurt Elder Sixteen.

"Apart from brother sixteen being injured, is there anything else going on in the inner court today?" Cao Yong asked after a little thought.

Cao Song thought for a while, and said: "Yes, I heard that the mother who delivered the baby went to Jingyang Palace to deliver the baby. It has been a whole day and night, and there is no news of the prince's landing. There is another thing that my younger brother paid special attention to. That is Concubine Yi and Concubine De not only summoned the Sixteenth Lord, but also the Twelfth Lord. People from the Ningshou Palace searched for the Twelfth Elder Brother. After searching for a long time, they realized that he was no longer in the palace. It's going to Tangquan Palace."

After listening to this, Cao Yong can already be sure that the sixteenth elder brother must have no choice but to come up with a "bitter trick".Thinking that the sixteenth brother is good at everything, but he can't bear the pain of flesh and blood. Every time he takes the medicine, it's like half his life, Cao Yong feels heavy.

If it wasn't forced by the situation, Elder Sixteen would definitely not have made such a bad move.

In the end, we can only find out when we enter the palace tomorrow.

Cao Yong nodded and said: "It's good that nothing serious happened at last. The second brother should go back and have a rest first. Tomorrow, I will visit Master Sixteen in the palace."

Cao Song responded, and was about to go out, then turned around and said, "Forget about it, big brother, that boy Zhao Feng said, when the sixteenth master woke up, he made a special request, and the master only sent people to pay his respects, and don't enter the palace in person for the time being... Zhao Feng originally wanted to send a letter to the yamen tomorrow morning, but since my younger brother has gone, I asked my younger brother to tell..."
