MTL - Female Official In the East Palace-Chapter 224
On the seventh day after the royal driver left, the fourth elder brother Yinzhen and the thirteen elder brother Yinxiang had similar arrangements and began to prepare to close the net. Before the order, the two came to the prince to report the matter.
The book in the prince's hand has been changed from a storybook to a travelogue. When the fourth elder brother spoke, he could not take his eyes off the book, and when the fourth elder brother finished speaking, there was no reply.
The fourth brother stared at the prince closely, his brows gradually tightened, and asked again: "Is there any instructions for the second brother of the prince?"
The prince happily turned a page of the book and said lightly, "Aren't you and Xiao Shisan doing a good job?"
The eldest grandson of the emperor was sitting behind another book desk and reading. When he saw this, he first looked at Rong Xin, and when he saw her expression was natural, he didn't respond to Ama's attitude. two uncles.
"Hong Zhao, you can't read half-heartedly." The prince didn't even look at the emperor's eldest grandson, "There is something that can't be solved, it just so happens that your two uncles are here, so just ask."
The meaning of the prince is to let the fourth brother and the thirteenth brother solve the confusion for the eldest grandson of the emperor.
Brother Thirteen is only five years older than the nephew, the eldest grandson of the emperor. Although he studied for five years, the eldest grandson of the emperor has always surpassed those of his age in reading. He could not answer accurately, so he looked at Four brothers.
These days, the fourth elder brother is instructing the emperor's eldest grandson, but he seems to have not heard of it at this time, and still looks at the prince persistently.
The eldest grandson blinked and had to follow to look at Ama.
For a time, no one made a sound in the study, and most of the eyes were focused on the prince. When the prince turned a page of the book, the fourth brother's eyes became serious and his face became more tense.
Rong Xin lowered his head and raised the corners of his mouth.
Prince: "…"
Can't beat it...
The prince put down his notes and answered his son's questions by citing scriptures from all over the place. During the whole process, no matter which scriptures were mentioned or the different viewpoints of several great Confucians, they were all at one's fingertips.
Emperor eldest grandson Ruo had a somewhat casual attitude before, but after Ama spoke, he listened very intently, saw or wrote a record.
The fourth elder brother and the thirteen elder brother also listened very seriously, and the thirteen elder brother gradually showed amazement in his eyes, but the fourth elder brother took it for granted.
After the prince finished speaking, he ordered the names of several books to the eldest grandson and asked him to read it through, and then he reached out for the travel notes.
"Second brother of the prince..." The fourth brother's serious voice sounded, "Is there any instructions on the eradication of the chaotic party?"
The prince was helpless, "You are fine, fourth, but you are too rigid."
"Thank you, the second brother for the praise." The fourth brother said with a blank expression, "Now Jiangnan only the second brother of the prince can make the decision, dare to ask the second brother of the prince if he has..."
The prince obeyed, raised his hand to stop it, and said seriously: "Yinzhen, you have been on a mission for many years, and you are used to being careful. Your arrangement is very appropriate. I really don't have anything to say."
The fourth brother's brows still did not unfold, "Prince second brother, to arrest the chaotic party, we must mobilize the local garrison, in case of panic and chaos, it is easy to cause trouble."
"Since you have considered it, you should know that as long as you move the garrison, it will disturb the people. You can only try your best to reduce the impact, and you can't avoid it."
The prince paused for a while, and then he understood when he looked at the fourth elder brother. He couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't worry, if the people are in a panic, I will come forward to comfort them."
The fourth elder brother handed over and said: "The second elder brother of the prince has not recovered from his illness, but he cares about the people. The younger brother is not as good as it is, and I admire him in my heart."
Rong Xin raised the medical book and covered the smile at the corner of his mouth.
The travel note in the prince's hand tapped on the pen stand, which was the direction of the fourth brother, "I said it wrong, the rigid word is really far from the fourth brother."
The fourth brother is not guilty, and even a little righteous in his posture, so that the thirteenth brother looks at him with admiration.
After the two left the prince's study, Brother Thirteen asked, "Why is the fourth brother so sure that the second brother of the prince will come forward?"
Before they came to find the prince, the fourth brother was sure that the prince would not really care about everything because of his illness. At that time, the thirteenth brother asked, but the fourth brother did not explain it to him.
At this time, the fourth elder brother listened to the thirteen elder brother's question, turned around and looked at the prince's yard, and said, "This is the most outstanding prince in the Qing Dynasty..."
In the study, Rong Xin and the prince were also talking about the fourth and thirteenth brothers.
Rong Xin said with a smile: "Si Baylor was very interesting when he was young. I thought he was deep and reserved all these years, but I didn't expect that the occasional words would be quite funny."
The eldest grandson of the emperor was unconsciously distracted, and really wanted to ask: Does Mammy really call this funny?
Prince Prince picked up the book again and said calmly, "The fourth child is indeed beautiful in his heart."
Rong Xin smiled and nodded.
The prince suddenly looked at the eldest grandson, "Hong Zhao, if you don't want to study, then leave the study."
The eldest grandson of the emperor immediately sat upright and admitted his mistake: "Hong Zhao knows his mistake, and dare not be distracted again."
Rong Xin looked at the eldest grandson of the emperor, this child probably didn't get distracted when he was reading, and the interval between turning the book became longer, he didn't realize it himself.
In the study, only Dongzhu was unaffected from beginning to end.
…
In the next few days, the time for the fourth and thirteen brothers to appear in the Prince’s courtyard was greatly reduced. The palace was peaceful, but the Dezhou and the entire Jiangnan outside the palace were turbulent.
Jiangnan is the main area for the activities of anti-Qing and Fuming organizations, and since the Qing army entered the customs for many years The Heaven and Earth Society was a big worry for Kangxi.
Kangxi made arrangements before he left, remote control on his way back to Beijing.
The yamen and garrisoned troops all over the place listened to orders, and suddenly launched an attack.
However, many people in the chaotic party are usually deeply hidden, and they are suddenly arrested, which inevitably causes panic among the people around them.
At this time, it was obvious that the fourth and thirteenth elder brothers had far-reaching thoughts, and the "seriously ill" His Royal Highness appeared in front of the people at the right time to appease the hearts of the people.
Prince Prince has a very high reputation among the people, and most people trust him. Even if there are people who do not give up and instigate behind his back, they are still just making small splashes, not as good as the Prince's words.
The people have always been able to live a stable life and are reluctant to make troubles, and the aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River do not mind fishing in troubled waters, but they do not want to fight against the Qing Dynasty when they know it is useless. damage self-interest.
The nobility who have already taken refuge with Kangxi and the prince will try their best to use their own power to stabilize the situation and keep Jiangnan from chaos.
They have been vigorously and resolutely this time, which has dealt a heavy blow to the chaotic party forces, and their vitality has been severely damaged, which cannot be recovered for several years.
On the way back to Beijing when the prince "completely recovered", Brother Thirteen still regretted not being able to break down the chaotic party, and the eldest grandson was the same enemy as Uncle Thirteen.
The two of them are young and energetic, but the prince and the fourth elder brother are not.
The prince has recently added a lot of interest. Rong Xin forbids him to read books in the carriage, so the prince finds a guqin and plays the qin on the carriage every day. He strongly invites his younger brothers to ride together. Hear his piano up close.
The sound of the piano is melodious and very pleasant, but with the sound of hooves and wheels, no one is in the mood to listen carefully, and even if you want to have a smooth conversation, you have to speak loudly.
At this time, the thirteenth elder brother and the eldest grandson of the emperor were loudly condemning the disobedience of the party.
Prince: "…"
"Zheng—"
A harsh sound rang in the carriage, and everyone turned to look at the source of the sound - the prince and his qin.
The prince raised his hand slightly and said with a smile, "I'm unfamiliar with the piano skills, I played it wrong, please forgive me." But there was not much guilt on the face, it was obviously intentional.
Afterwards, the prince stroked the guqin, and a string of clear qin sounds flowed out.
The prince calmly said: "What are the other people, you can't control it, but if you and the others make the Qing Dynasty stable and unshakable, the wolf ambitions of the chaotic ministers and thieves will naturally have nowhere to go."
The thirteenth elder brother and the eldest grandson looked at each other and said together, "Yes, Yinxiang/Hongzhao understands."
The prince nodded with satisfaction, the corners of his mouth raised lightly, "So, can you listen to me playing the piano?"
The thirteenth elder brother and the eldest grandson both nodded and put their hands on their knees.
Prince raised his hand and just put his fingers on the strings, when he heard another cracking sound.
Everyone thought that the prince had made a mistake again and looked at him, but then, the guard outside the carriage shouted: "There are assassins! Protect His Royal Highness!"
The guards outside the carriage shouted to the prince and others while defending against the assassin, telling them to stay in the carriage and not come out.
, picked up the waist knife, pushed open the carriage door and jumped out.
The thirteenth elder brother's reaction was not slow, he followed closely behind the two elder brothers, and killed the assassins around the carriage to prevent them from getting close to the carriage.
The eldest grandson had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he had to rush out, but was dragged back by Rong Xin by the collar.
"Mommy!" The eldest grandson looked out of the carriage unwillingly and worriedly.
Dongzhu almost didn't need to say anything, she picked up a pair of renju fire guns.
Of course Rong Xin couldn't let a little girl of her use this thing, so he hurriedly grabbed it and stuffed another ordinary handgun for her and the eldest grandson.
Dongzhu stared at the Lianzhu fire gun, pouting slightly.
At this time, some of the assassins recognized the prince and others, and immediately shouted at his accomplices: "Kill the prince of Tartars! Avenge the brothers!"
But as soon as the assassin's voice fell, he heard a "bang", and then he fell to the ground.
Dongzhu lowered her head to look at her trembling hands, her brows were slightly wrinkled, and there was a rare expression of other emotions on her face.
Rong Xin didn't have time to pay attention to her, so he aimed at a few assassins with hand guns and bows and arrows outside, and shot.
Unfortunately, Rong Xin has not tried this thing a few times, and the drawback of great lethality but lack of stamina has not been improved. It was discovered by assassins not long after, and several assassins seemed to be dying. rushed over.
The recoil made Rong Xin and Dongzhu's arms unable to activate the fire gun again. Fortunately, the assassin with the fire gun had already been knocked down by Rong Xin. It was just a sword.
The eldest grandson saw the after-effects of Rong Xin's use of the fire gun, so he threw down his hand gun, pulled out his waist knife, and blocked in front of Mammy and sister, ready to protect them when the assassin broke through the defense.
Rong Xin looked at his not broad back, hugged Dongzhu tightly, and looked proud.
