Chapter 329

"Yuntang, tell the servants to see if King Yong is here?"

"It's the lady."

Yuntang took the order and went out to give instructions to the palace servants below.Although she didn't know what the empress was anxious about, but the empress was always calm and rarely was so anxious, presumably it must be something big or something important.Yun Tang knew how to read people's faces, so she didn't ask Xiu Yu.

Since Kangxi went to see the prince, Xiu Yu has been restless.It was only when she got the news that the prince was sick that Xiu Yu remembered such a thing in history. It was just that Kangxi got along well with the prince and his son along the way, and Kangxi also loved the prince very much. There was tension between them.It wasn't until now that the prince was ill that Xiu Yu realized that the harmony between the father and son was an illusion. I'm afraid Kangxi didn't want the prince to participate in the important event of offering sacrifices to Mount Tai, and what did the prince mean.

Xiu Yu seemed to smell the tense atmosphere, as if the conflict between Kangxi and the prince was about to break out.

Changing positions and thinking about Kangxi and the prince's mood, Xiu Yu can understand two or three points; the prince is already 30 years old this year, and standing at thirty is the time when people's body and mind are at their best, and their ambition and desire for power have reached their peak , there are so many people around to support and follow, it would be impossible if he had no other thoughts; and Kangxi was in his prime and had a strong desire to possess power, and he did not allow anyone to violate the power of the emperor in his hands.One is ambitious and wants to seize power, and the other is obsessed with power. The conflict between the two becomes more and more intense, and they either burn themselves or burn others to death.

Under such circumstances, Xiu Yu would absolutely not allow her son to become cannon fodder for Kangxi and the prince to fight. After all, the current situation is very different from history, and it is hard to guarantee that Kangxi will not have the intention to push her son out as cannon fodder.After all, apart from the crown prince, Yinti and Yinzhen are the princes who are the most qualified to inherit.

Yinti is the eldest son of the emperor, but he was not loved by Kangxi because of his reckless temperament, lack of wit in the city, and endless fights with the crown prince in his early years. Although his mother was the fourth concubine, he had no favor for him; And his biological mother, Xiu Yu, is not only favored, but also the highest-ranking concubine in charge of Fengyin in the harem. Yinzhen is the person the Crown Prince fears the most.

If Kangxi pushed Yinzhen out at this time, then Yinzhen would become the first target of the princelings.If Yinzhen is going up against the crown prince now, if they lose the fight, their mother and son will be cannon fodder along with Yinzhen; The end result is failure.

And no matter what the outcome of the battle between Yinzhen and the crown prince is, it will ease the situation where Kangxi is threatened by the prince to his power at this time; and Yinzhen and the crown prince will become victims of power in Kangxi's hands, which is unacceptable to Xiuyu , so Xiu Yu must not let Kangxi push his son out.

Xiu Yu waited until noon, and Kangxi, who had promised to accompany her to have lunch, didn't come, and even the two brothers Yinzhen and Yinxiang didn't come to have lunch. She wanted them to spend more time with Kangxi. The opportunity to get along enhances the relationship between father and son.Now that the three fathers and sons are not here, could it be that the crown prince is really sick.Xiu Yu couldn't help being suspicious.

"Your Majesty, the King of Yong County must be delayed by something. Why don't you rest for a while, and wait for the King of Yong County to come, and then I will call you."

After waiting anxiously for a long time, Xiu Yu was also a little bit exhausted deep down.

"Forget it, I will lean on the palace for a while, and you will call me when Yinzhen comes."

"It's not as comfortable to lie on. The servants should wait for the empress to lie down in the house."

"No need, I'll just make do with it." She didn't feel relieved to sleep without seeing her son.

After leaning on and waiting for a long time, I fell asleep because I was too worried about my lack of energy and tiredness.Brothers Yinzhen and Yinxiang only came here when it was nearly dusk, and when they entered the hall, they saw that the whole hall was quiet, and the servants they saw were also tiptoeing, which made the two brothers puzzled.

"What happened to your mother today?" Yinxiang asked the servant who had seen the two brothers salute.

"Slave, I don't know..." The eunuch trembled from being pulled, and just as he was speaking, he saw Yuntang come out of the room.Yun Tang stepped forward to salute and said: "My lord, the sixteenth lord, you are here, but your empress has been anxious all day."

The two Yinzhen brothers looked at each other, it wasn't that the two brothers didn't want to come over to Eniang's earlier, it was because the second brother of the prince couldn't leave, Huang Ama was there to guard the second brother of the prince and they didn't dare to leave until the second brother of the prince let them go Can only guard.Unexpectedly, this guard lasted for a whole day.

"Aunt Yuntang, please, where's Erniang?"

"Your Majesty waited for the two masters for a whole day before falling asleep from the previous meeting. Your Majesty told you to call her if the prince passes by. The prince and the sixteenth master will wait for the servants to come into the house and call your empress."

Yuntang said that he was about to enter the house again but was stopped by Yinzhen, "Eniang has been tired for a day, let Erniang go to bed first, I will just wait." After speaking, he turned and said to Yinxiang: "Sixteenth brother, it's getting late, and I don't know when Er Niang will wake up. If you are tired today, why don't you go back first."

"That's fine, the younger brother will go back first, and he will come back tomorrow to say hello to Mrs. Guier." Yinxiang didn't think too much about it, after all, he was only 16 years old and still young, so he felt tired after being nervous this day.

Not long after Yinxiang left, Xiu Yu called Yinzhen into the house.In fact, Xiu Yu was already awake when the two brothers arrived. She wanted to call the two brothers into the house but Yinzhen told Yinxiang to go back first, so she didn't make a sound.She is a mother, and she can only be selfish for the sake of her children.Of the four princes who followed, the prince fell ill, and the remaining three children had no better candidates than Yinxiang.

"Why did you come here?" Xiu Yu's evidence was a little anxious.

"It's all the son's fault, I'm tired of my mother. The son and the sixteenth brother have been guarding there all the time, and they really can't leave."

"Emiang is fine, is the prince okay?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Mount Jishan the day after tomorrow."

When evil qi enters the body, not only the fever does not return to the cough, but the body is still weak after the fever is not enough for a day or two to recover.

"What if your Huang Ama said that you want to sacrifice to the mountain?"

"Huang Ama didn't mention it, but what does Erniang think?" Yinzhen is used to listening to his own mother's opinion. After serving Huang Ama for many years, Erniang can guess some of Huang Ama's meaning, but he can't guess of.

"Among your many brothers, the crown prince is the only one who was raised by the Lord Long Live himself, and he is also the heir's heir. On weekdays, Huang Ama attaches great importance to the prince. Now that the prince is sick, your Huang Ama must be worried about him and protect him."

"Er Niang means that there has been a change in the matter of offering sacrifices to the mountain?" Yinzhen's eyes lit up, the second brother of the crown prince was ill and would not be able to go, Huang Ama was worried that the second brother of the crown prince would not be at ease, so he had a chance.

"You four brothers are the only ones to follow this time. Long live the crown prince is worried about the mountain. You three brothers must choose one of the sacrifices to the mountain." In history, only the prince, Yongzheng and Yinxiang followed Kangxi this time. "But Er Niang doesn't think this is a good thing."

"What did Er Niang say?" Yinzhen was surprised, offering sacrifices to Mount Tai is a big event, but not everyone is qualified to sacrifice to Mount Tai.Mount Tai is sacred in the eyes of the emperors of all dynasties, and many emperors enshrined Zen here, which is comparable to the meaning of offering sacrifices to heaven; if he can go to worship the mountain, it will be the affirmation of Huang Ama for him.

"You only know one thing but don't know the other. How can this mountain be a good place to sacrifice. How are your emperor Ama and the prince doing now? If you sacrificed the mountain, what would your emperor Ama think, and what would the prince think? What would the courtiers think?" Think about it?"

Once Kangxi and the crown prince know about Yinzhen's desire to sacrifice to the mountain, Kangxi and the crown prince will definitely be afraid of Yinzhen, and both Kangxi and the crown prince will think that Yinzhen has the heart to seize power.If Yinzhen really went, he would put himself in the target of public criticism.

"Emiang wants to say that now is not the time? But what if Huang Ama lets the sixth brother go?" If he can't push Huang Ama closer and let the sixth brother go, wouldn't it mean that Huang Ama has a crush on the sixth brother? , then the forces that originally supported him will definitely fall to Yinqi.

The biggest support behind him is Guo Luoluo, Yiergenjueluo and Shushujueluo; Yiergenjueluo and Shushujueluo are okay to say, but Guo Luoluo will not support him.His mother-in-law and concubine Yi both came from the Guo Luoluo clan, and the Guo Luoluo clan was not only his mother's family but also the sixth younger brother Yinqi's mother's family.Now the Guo Luoluo family is divided into two, supporting him and the sixth younger brother respectively. The two forces are evenly divided.

"Don't worry, Yin Qi won't go."

"Er Niang, you..." Yinzhen was surprised, but there was no other reason, and he acquiesced to Er Niang's actions in his heart.If he can't go, he can't let the sixth brother go.If both he and the sixth younger brother can't go, wouldn't it be: "Emiang's sixteenth younger brother..."

"Your sixteenth brother is still young, he is more suitable than both of you."

However, the sixteenth brother is indeed suitable.The sixteenth brother has just been a leader and has no power or power in his hands, so it shouldn't cause any fear when the sixteenth brother goes.

"My son listens to my mother."

The two mother and son chatted for a while, Yinzhen accompanied Xiu Yu for dinner before leaving.

The next day, Kangxi really proposed that one of the three brothers Yinzhen, Yinqi, and Yinxiang should go to Mount Tai for him. Yinqi was very excited when he heard that, and secretly planned how to let Kangxi let him go to the mountain.Yinzhen had discussed with Xiu Yu earlier, then went back and pondered for a long time, thinking over and over again, and finally felt that what Eniang said was right, this sacrifice to the mountain is not a good opportunity to get ahead, so he did not behave Compared with Yinqi, Kangxi is more satisfied with Yinzhen than Yinqi.

Not only Kangxi and the crown prince were paying attention to the matter of offering sacrifices to the mountain, but even the accompanying officials were guessing which prince Kangxi would send to offer sacrifices to the mountain.Because of his birth and his highest title, the accompanying officials all thought that Yinzhen was the most likely.

But what they didn't expect was that Yin Zhen had a bad stomach that night and couldn't get up the next day after a night of trouble. Naturally, he couldn't go to the mountain of sacrifice.

Knowing that her son was unwell, Xiu Yu immediately went to see her son. She didn't want to see Kangxi walking in the garden from a distance, followed by several officials.After a while, I saw a eunuch hurried over and said something to Liang Jiugong, Liang Jiugong passed it on to Kangxi again, stopped to listen, only to hear that Liang Jiugong was reporting to Kangxi about Yinzhen's bad stomach, and Kangxi looked unhappy, Clearly displeased with such a thing.After Kangxi thought about it for a while, he ordered Liang Jiugong to call Sixth Brother.

After listening to this, Xiu Yu couldn't understand Kangxi's thoughts. It turned out that Kangxi really wanted her son Yinzhen to be the cannon fodder for him to fight for power with the prince. At this moment, Xiu Yu clearly realized that no son or favor is worth anything in front of power. carry.Fortunately, fortunately, she never fell into a trap because of Kangxi's pampering and spoiling her. Fortunately, she was always sober, and always remembered that she was in the royal family and was a concubine.

Now that Kangxi is afraid that Yinzhen will not be able to go, she wants to bring Yinqi out; no, she must not let Yinqi go to sacrifice to the mountain, otherwise the civil strife in the Guo Luoluo clan will be inevitable.

Hearing movement in the distance suddenly, he released his consciousness to 'look' and saw a face full of excitement that couldn't be restrained.Xiu Yu hooked her lips into a smile, and walked out from the cover, just at the two ends of the same road with Kangxi.

"Long Live,"

With a pleasantly surprised voice, Kangxi raised his head and saw Xiu Yu standing on the other side. Xiu Yu went forward and said, "My concubine respectfully invites the Long Live Lord Shengan."

"Greetings to Imperial Concubine Jing, all blessings, Empress."

"Get up." Kangxi personally reached out to help Xiu Yu up. In the eyes of outsiders, Concubine Jing is really doting on her.

"Excuse me, my lords." Xiu Yu stretched out her free other hand to give it, and Kangxi still held her tightly.

"Long live my lord, the noble concubine, the concubine, and the slave are waiting to retire."

Those who could sneak into the emperor's side were all very winking. Seeing that Kangxi was holding the hand of the imperial concubine and the empress, several officials sincerely asked for an order to resign.

"Where is Yu'er going?" The emperor and concubine walked hand in hand, and Kangxi called Xiuyu by her boudoir name without anyone else.

"The servant of the fourth son said that the fourth son had a bad stomach, and the concubine was worried and was going to take a look."

"The fourth one is the same, he's such a grown-up, and he's still so careless to worry about you, my mother." Kangxi was still unhappy in his heart, obviously he seemed to be blaming Yinzhen for worrying his favorite concubine, but in fact it was for Yinzhen zhen's sudden discomfort ruined his plan.

"No matter how old the fourth child is, he is still just a child in my concubine's heart." Xiu Yu cast a reproachful glance at Kangxi, expressing her displeasure at what Kangxi said about her son, perfectly showing a mother who protects the calf.

"It just so happens that I want to see the fourth brother and go with me." Kangxi didn't care about you, and your expression made Xiu Yu feel depressed.

The two emperors and concubines turned to go to the courtyard where the princes lived temporarily. When they turned the corner, they suddenly saw a person rushing towards them excitedly. Under the cover of their sleeves, Xiu Yu flicked a wave of spiritual power that was different from the naked eye.

Yinqi was very happy when he learned that Yinzhen could not go. Before Kangxi ordered him to go to the mountain, he was anxious to show in front of Kangxi.After finding out that Kangxi was in the garden, he rushed to the garden, never thinking of staggering with the little eunuch sent by Kangxi to invite him.When I entered the garden, I didn't want to be extremely happy and sad. When I saw Kangxi, I was too happy to walk and forgot to look at my feet. I accidentally stumbled, fell down and broke my head.

Seeing Yin Qi lying in front of her, Xiu Yu felt secretly refreshed, making you gloat and dare to laugh at her son.But despite this in his heart, he had a frightened expression on his face, and he was pulling Kangxi's sleeves. In the eyes of outsiders, Brother Six's lying down scared the imperial concubine and empress.

"What are you doing in a daze, help your master up quickly." Kangxi patted Xiu Yu's hand, frowned and scolded the eunuch beside Yinqi.

"Oh, it's bleeding, I'm afraid I hit my head, hurry up, go and call the imperial doctor to have a look." Seeing Xue Xiuyu was even more startled, and urgently called for the imperial doctor.

A group of servants cheered and carried Yinqi away, Kangxi looked at Yinqi who was carried away by the slaves, his face was very displeased: "Look what's going on, they are all married and become ama Still so frizzy."

His voice was full of dissatisfaction.

Xiu Yu didn't answer, she had no need to speak well for Yin Qi, nor did she want to take the opportunity to take eye drops.No matter how wrong Yinqi is, Yinqi is the prince's fault after all. Kangxi can say it, but others can't say it, not to mention Xiu Yu, even Yinqi's birth mother Yifei can't say it in front of Kangxi.

"I have something to do ahead of me. You should go and see the fourth child yourself, and then I will go and see him when you are free." Kangxi didn't have the heart to talk with Xiu Yu after this happened.

"The concubine sends the Lord Long Live."
