93. The Qing Dynasty, Which Was Worn Like a Sieve (Twenty-Six)

Su Yuanyuan and Yinzhen had been married for almost three years at this time. Her being so pushy naturally aroused people's jealousy, and the fact that her belly remained silent became a reason for some people to laugh at her. As soon as some rumors spread, Yinzhen suppressed them vigorously. But just in time for the draft, many girls of the right age have begun to think about it. Yinzhen is already a prince, so why should he marry two Fujins? This also includes the Uranala clan who is over sixteen years old, and the Nian clan who is over thirteen years old.

Nian Gengyao is now working under Yinzhen, but there are so many people under Yinzhen that he is not reused. And Nian had just traveled through time. Although she was shocked that there were other time-traveling girls, she still felt that she could choose a good prince to marry, because now the princes below Yinzhen are all brothers and sisters, which means that they will not be in despair in the future. He is a very capable prince, and she will not suffer any loss if she marries anyone. Also because her body is really stunningly beautiful, and based on her appearance alone, she also believes that she will definitely join the royal family.

Because of this consideration, Nian Gengyao found an opportunity to test Yinzhen's tone, and implicitly expressed that he wanted to offer the Nian family's favorite daughter to show his loyalty.

Yinzhen glanced at him and said calmly: "Liang Gong's sister is certainly good. I think she will be considered a good match in this draft."

Nian Gengyao looked stunned, a little in disbelief, and said bravely: "Your Majesty, now that the emperor pays attention to you, and Prince Zhi and the prince are eyeing you, will they... criticize you for the issue of heirs?"

Yinzhen's expression became even more indifferent, and he turned his finger without raising his eyes, "I will make my own decision on this matter."

Nian Gengyao heard his displeasure, held his breath and said carefully, "Yes, I will resign."

After he left, Yinzhen gently knocked on the table, went to Su Peisheng and ordered: "Prince Zhi and the Crown Prince, don't have to endure it any longer and send out the evidence of their crimes."

"yes!"

This evidence of crime was naturally sent to the enemy. As soon as the Pearl Party discovered the evidence of the crime of the Prince ^ Party, they launched a massive attack. Immediately afterwards, the Prince ^ Party also discovered the evidence of the crime of the Pearl Party and hurriedly fought back. They fought fiercely, and even the Jiangnan corruption case was uncovered. Many officials were dismissed and punished. When Prince Zhi and the prince came to their senses, they suddenly discovered that Yinzhen had secretly picked up the leaks in the dark. At least half of the officials who had replaced them were Yinzhen. People from Zhen!

Of course, this was what Yinzhen asked them to discover, and it was useless for them to find out. His people did not violate laws and disciplines. After such a long selection, all the people who came up were people who did practical things. In recent years, the prince has been jealous of Kangxi and targeted by Prince Zhi. The power under his command has been reduced a lot. Now that Yinzhen is profiting from the side, he no longer believes in the words of Kangxi's loyal ministers. If Yinzhen plans to become the prince in the future, How could his loyal minister do such a thing? This is clearly coveting his position!

In the eyes of the prince, Yinzhen is almost ready. He has the power, has the emperor's trust, has the help of his brothers, and has won the hearts of the people. If he doesn't suppress him, his position as prince will be given up to others!

After discussing with Suo'etu, the prince unexpectedly made a temporary truce with the Pearl Party, and the two parties cooperated to attack Yinzhen's forces with all their strength. As Yinzhen's mother clan and wife clan, the Tong family immediately got off the ground and started fighting with them. Although Tong Guowei is older, his emphasis on power has not faded, and he is still waiting for the success of Conglong.

As they fought like this, Kangxi could clearly see it from the throne. His brows were furrowed and his face became more and more gloomy every day. Finally, after the prince couldn't help but whip the minister, he was called to Qianqing Palace and reprimanded severely. Because Concubine De's confession included the prince whipping the minister, he didn't believe it at first, but who knew he actually saw this scene!

Kangxi went from coveting women and being scolded to ruthless and unrighteous, from being cold-blooded and scolded to having no royal father. The prince finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Huang Ama! Are you so disdainful of Erchen? So you suppressed Erchen all these years just to pave the way for the fourth son? Are you going to give up the position of prince to the fourth son? Don't you think you are too partial? ?!"

Kangxi's eyes widened angrily, "Am I partial? You are the one I am partial to most! I personally trained you, strictly required you, and gave you countless opportunities. However, you just didn't repent and followed that old man Suo'etu to cause trouble. Now you are here." Do you blame me for being biased?”

"If you are not biased, how can you let the fourth child achieve great achievements repeatedly? If you are not biased, how can you allow him to become more powerful? Take a good look at him. How many brothers are helping him? How many ministers are relying on him? He is forming a clique for personal gain!"

"That's enough! I said that anyone may want to compete for the heirloom, but the fourth child won't. Of course I have my reasons for saying this. Are you doubting me now? I have been paving the way for you, but look at you What are you doing? You've broken Lao Si's heart, can you still expect him to help you in the future? "

The prince sneered and said fearlessly: "You are still lying to me now. Since you replaced all my confidants three years ago, you don't want me as the prince, right? Are you taking advantage of me? I’m making a whetstone for him with my boss!”

"Presumptuous!" Kangxi threw an inkstone over and directly broke the prince's forehead. He was extremely angry, but when he saw the prince injured and bleeding, he felt a little regretful. Finally, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice, "Your fourth brother... was given sterilization drug by Concubine De!"

The prince's eyes widened in an instant, and the mocking expression on his face had not faded away, but his eyes were full of surprise, "How, how is it possible? Didn't the imperial doctor say that he was not poisoned?"

Kangxi snorted coldly, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, and stopped looking at him, "What the imperial doctor said was my order. Do you want this scandal to be known to everyone? Your fourth brother has no children yet, but he is trying to harm him. It's you who owe him. He is not destined for a big position in this life, but he is very talented. If you treat him sincerely, he will definitely help you sincerely in the future. He gets along well with the prince and ministers, doesn't he help you clean up the court? When did you start not believing what I said?"

Kangxi's sigh made the prince dizzy. If this was true, wouldn't he have broken his arm? He shook his head and took a step back, "Impossible. If he wanted to help me, how could he stand by and watch the fight between me and the boss? How could he fish in troubled waters and install his own people?"

"What are his own people? The people he mentioned are all people who do the facts! What has your fourth brother done in these years that was not for the country and the people? As for standing idly by? Huh, you are not the emperor now, I am Emperor, the fourth child can only listen to me."

"No, I don't believe it!"

The prince was anxious to find out the truth and couldn't believe that Kangxi turned around and left. He has also been severely stimulated in the past few years, and has become extremely surly, a bit like the time when he was deposed in history, broken and broken.

Kangxi closed his eyes and clenched his hands into fists behind his back. The prince looked exactly like what Concubine De described, but he knew that he was the one who made the prince look like this in advance! It was his defensiveness and suspicion that inspired the prince's rebellious spirit, and it was his strict discipline that made the prince breathless, which made the break between father and son ten years earlier.

But there is really no solution to this knot. He and the prince are not only father and son, but also have the throne and the Soetu faction between them. It is true that Yinzhen has stood by and watched the dispute between the prince and his eldest brother over the years, but that was when he ordered Yinzhen to weaken the power of Suo'etu and Mingzhu. A few years later, the power of Suo'etu and Mingzhu was only half of what it was back then. This was the result he expected to see, and he was very satisfied. But his and the prince's positions were not consistent. The prince only regarded Suo'etu as his support, and the nanny brother and the eunuch as his close people, but he never thought about how the real king of a country could allow his subordinates to commit crimes. And the prince’s backer is never Suo’etu, but him!

It's a pity that the relationship between father and son is irreversible, and the prince is no longer suitable for the throne. The prophecy of the demise of the Qing Dynasty hung over his head like a knife. He could not choose such a nepotistic prince as emperor. Among the other princes, who will you choose?

In recent years, Kangxi has been paying attention to the situation of several sons, but he has not yet found one who is suitable for the throne in all aspects. The boss has no talent for governing the country, no tolerance for others, and no self-awareness. He is absolutely inappropriate. The third child only knows how to make fuss, but although he is thoughtful, he does not have the ability. Lao Ba's status is indeed low, and his methods are not ruthless enough. To make the Qing Dynasty prosperous, a powerful emperor is needed.

The others are not outstanding enough, let alone inappropriate. There are only a few who have not grown up yet. Little Thirteen is smart but too impulsive, and Little Fourteen is smart but not stable enough. He has no success. After much calculation, it seems that only Little Fifteen, born to the imperial concubine, is the most suitable. Still young and smart enough that he could teach him himself, he still had that time. Yinzhen, who was raised by the imperial concubine, has the closest relationship with Fifteen, so he should be able to assist Fifteen well, right?

However, this cannot allow the Tong family to continue to grow, and must be suppressed. Enough of the glory of the three generations, it is time for silence.

While Kangxi was frowning and thinking, the prince had quickly left the palace to find Suo'etu and told him about Yinzhen's sterilization! Suo'etu was also shocked, but thinking that Concubine De was stabbed to death and the Baoyi family was ransacked and exiled, all seemed to indicate that Concubine De had really harmed Yinzhen. Otherwise, why would Kangxi be so angry? But regardless of whether Yinzhen will assist the prince in the future, he will definitely threaten his status.

Suo'etu knew that Kangxi had always been dissatisfied with him, and now that he had trained Yinzhen to assist the prince, was he ready to deal with him? He thought about it carefully and then said seriously to the prince: "Your Highness, even if what the emperor said is true, who can guarantee that Prince Yong will sincerely assist you? Although he cannot have children, he can control the government. What do you think? Ergon. If he harms you and supports a nephew to ascend to power, won't the little emperor become a puppet in his hands? "

The prince nodded slowly, "That's right. Just now, Gu Ye told Huang Ama that the fourth child couldn't really help me. It's a pity that Huang Ama was sure that he was good. Hehe, Huang Ama probably just took a fancy to him. Threatening?"

Seeing that the prince still trusted him as always, Suo'etu felt a little more at ease and suggested: "Why don't your highness give him a try? If he is willing to show his loyalty, he can privately hand over some power to his highness. The power is in his own hands." You can use your talents. Since he is an assistant minister trained by the emperor, he should know his identity. If he doesn't want to... I think he must have wild ambitions, especially because Concubine De's sterilization has something to do with Lao Chen. I'm afraid that he will hate me and you, Your Highness! Please think again."

The prince frowned tightly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Suo'etu was right. What man doesn't want to continue the family line? If it were him, he would definitely hate Suo'etu to death. He remembered that he had begged Suo'etu for mercy in this matter. Could it be because of this that Yinzhen hated him?

The prince decided to meet Yinzhen, no matter what, he wanted to test his intentions first.

As expected, Yinzhen received the message from the prince. He got up and went to the room to change clothes. He held Su Yuanyuan's hand and said, "I have wronged you these past few days and made you take the blame."

Su Yuanyuan smiled nonchalantly, leaned in his arms and looked up at him, "I couldn't have given birth in the first place, how can I be called the scapegoat? If I could have given birth, you wouldn't have drank that bowl of Juezi soup. Besides, those things The jabbering villains can only satisfy their own jealousy. They are just clowns. I don't care. If I were serious, I would laugh at them as useless people who can do nothing but depend on men day by day. But I don't have that. Interested in understanding them.”

"Having said that, rumors are always annoying, and I don't want you to bear those cynicisms. As long as you are happy, you can do whatever you want."

"Well, these are your strengths."

Yinzhen was an agent in his previous life, and controlling public opinion in the entertainment industry was a skill. He didn't expect that he could still use it now. He also learned the ability to guess people's hearts well. Although he didn't like others talking about Su Yuanyuan's impromptu idea this time, he still created a good opportunity and even guessed that Kangxi wanted to train Xiao Wu.

Yinzhen was invited to meet the prince at Yuqing Palace. The prince looked at him with eyes full of scrutiny. After a few words of greeting, he tentatively said: "I have lost a lot of manpower recently, and I can't find anyone who can handle things well. I don't know who the fourth brother has. Is there anyone who can help me?"

Yinzhen said respectfully and distantly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, I only have a few ordinary disciples who are stupid and clumsy. I am afraid that they will ruin the affairs of Your Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince's face darkened, he stared at him and asked: "Fourth brother has many friends, how about recommending some capable ministers?"

Yinzhen thought for a moment and named a few people, but the prince's expression turned even more ugly. Without him, all Yinzhen talked about were Kangxi people.

The prince sneered displeasedly, "It seems that brother Gu did something wrong. The fourth brother is not even willing to help with such a small favor."

Yinzhen stood up and bowed his head in salute, "Your Highness, please forgive me."

This means the talks have collapsed! The prince waved him away, and he didn't believe Kangxi's words. Maybe even Kangxi was lying to him, otherwise why would he suppress him like this? Now that he is surrounded by wolves, he is already a trapped beast, and he really should plan for himself!

Suo'etu breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news from the prince. Although he hopes that the prince will ascend to the throne as soon as possible, he must first ensure that he is the biggest beneficiary of the prince's ascendance. Fortunately, Kangxi was still very healthy, and they still had time to defeat the threat of Yinzhen. Suo'etu directly released the news, and did not directly say that Yinzhen could not have a child. He only asked people to pretend that the words came out unintentionally, wondering why Prince Yong did not take a concubine? Is it possible that you don’t want any heirs?

It's so strange that a twenty-year-old man doesn't care about heirs. Could it be that it's not Sifu Jin who can't have children, but Prince Yong?

This statement was refuted by others as soon as it came out. After all, in everyone's minds, being unable to have children is always a woman's problem. How could a prince not be able to have children? But before they could say anything more about Su Yuanyuan, the people sent by Yinzhen to guide public opinion took action. Within a day, the story of Prince Yong being sterilized by his biological mother spread throughout the capital. Rumors about Su Yuanyuan being unable to have children were immediately debunked. Instead, people said that she was affectionate and loyal to her childhood sweetheart, her cousin. Never leave.

When everyone was discussing quietly, they would always criticize Concubine De, and then sympathize with Prince Yong and Su Yuanyuan, praising them for their love for each other and for being able to treat such things with a normal heart and do so many good things. At this time, everyone thought of the benefits that Prince Yong had brought to the people, and of Su Yuanyuan's protection of the woman. There was a large number of people who had been sympathizing with them. Now that the truth was revealed, naturally they all praised Prince Yong and Su Yuanyuan. They were even more moved by their words and actions for the sake of the people.

With Yinzhen behind the scenes, these remarks could not be stopped. When Kangxi found out, he was furious. He immediately summoned the prince to him, pointed at his nose, and was so angry that he could not speak.
