Chapter 62 Chapter 62 Chapter 62

Kangxi stood at the door, listening to Yiren Yitong's words, the expression on his face became a little gloomy, Xue Changzai?

He hadn't heard of this person for a long time.

But the moment I heard it, it still felt familiar.

Thinking of this, he lifted the door curtain, stepped inside, and smiled at Yinyu, "Fifteenth, are you awake? Father brought you chicken soup wontons with egg flowers, a sprinkle of chopped green onions, and sesame oil."

"It smells delicious, would you like to try it, Fifteen?"

Yinyu listened to Kangxi's description and twitched his little nose. The unique aroma of wontons immediately hit him. He nodded at Kangxi with bright eyes and said in a baby voice, "Yes!"

After he finished speaking, he lifted the quilt and sat up from the bed, stretching out his hand for Liang Jiugong to help him put on his clothes.

After he put on his clothes, Sun came in with a basin of water. She walked to Yinyou with a warm towel and helped him wash.

After Yinwei finished cleaning up, he ran towards Kangxi with his short legs, then lay down in front of the table and looked at the wontons in the bowl.

The wontons were small in size, but each one was plump. When he took a bite, the chicken soup burst in his mouth, and the meat inside was very elastic, which made Yinyou squint his eyes in satisfaction.

He ate them one by one with a spoon, very happily.

Kangxi took a handkerchief and wiped the soup that fell on his chin from time to time. He said to him softly, "Eat slowly, don't be anxious."

Yinyu nodded his little head randomly and said incoherently, "Dad, when my second brother gets married, I want to go to the bridal chamber to make trouble."

He had never seen an ancient wedding, so this time he wanted to go and see it. He also heard that he could hide under the bed and wait to ask for money from the groom.

If you want to hide it under the bed, you have to hide it before the bride arrives.

In addition to this, you also need to take his cloth bag with some food and drinks. It should not be a problem to hide for a day.

He was thinking about how to hide it and how to blackmail his second brother to give him gold.

Kangxi looked at his rolling eyes, raised his hand and tapped his head gently, then said to him in a scolding tone: "Eat well, don't be afraid of choking."

Yinyu cupped the remaining chicken soup in his hands and drank it all in one gulp. Then he reached out and took Kangxi's arm, saying to him, "Dad, is this possible?"

"If I hide and wait for my second brother's wedding night, and scare him and threaten him into giving me gold, do you think he will let me go to his storehouse and choose for myself?"

As he spoke, his bright black eyes flashed and he looked at Kangxi with anticipation.

Kangxi's mouth twitched slightly, and then he held the man in his arms and said to him earnestly: "Fifteen, let's not do such things. If you want gold, you can go to your sister-in-law. She will give each brother a purse, which will definitely contain gold."

If Fifteen really hid in Yinreng's room and came out at the critical moment, Yinreng would probably want to beat him to death.

Thinking of this, he gently patted Yinwei's back and looked at him with some sadness.

Originally he thought Yinxiang was very naughty, but he didn't expect that Yinyou was no less naughty now.

After hearing Kangxi's words, System 679 said to Yinyu, "Host, don't listen to your father. If you don't want to disturb your second brother's bridal chamber, take Fourteen, Thirteen, and the others with you. Your second brother won't be able to do anything about it."

Having said this, he continued to Yinyu: "But don't hide under the bed. It would be bad if you fall asleep."

Yinyou listened to System 679's words and nodded in his heart, "Okay, when that day comes, I will definitely take my brothers with me to make money. After all, I'm still young, and children's mistakes can be forgiven."

After listening to Yinyou's twisted logic, Kangxi almost didn't know how to explain this matter to him.

Liang Jiugong walked in from outside. He bowed slightly to Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yi and Concubine Min are quarreling in the prince's residence. The Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince are also quarreling."

"Your Majesty, please go and administer justice."

Upon hearing this, Yinyu said to System 679, "System, is this because of Concubine Yi's cat? Wasn't it strangled to death by Concubine Xue?"

"If I put it in Yinxiang's place, will Concubine Yi believe it?"

System 679 said to him, "Perhaps this is what Concubine Yi herself wants to believe?"

Yinyu listened to his words and immediately understood what he meant. He nodded to the 679 system and said, "You are right. When my father goes there later, let's go and take a look, and solve a case for him."

As he spoke, a bright smile appeared on his young face.

Kangxi listened to Yiren Yitong's words, reached out and took the thick cotton coat and put it on him. After the clothes were put on, he put the hat on him. The heavy cloak wrapped his whole body, leaving only his little face exposed, and then he carried him out.

As soon as he went out, a cold wind blew past, and Yinyu shrank his neck in the cold. He said to the 679 system: "It's really cold today. I don't even want to go out because of the cold."

He paused for a moment, then turned to System 679 and asked, "By the way, how is my Eleventh Brother now?"

He has been gone for several months and there is still no news.

When Kangxi listened to Yinwei's question, he felt something in his heart. After Eleventh followed Master Huiyuan away, there was no news of him anymore, as if Master Huiyuan and Eleventh had disappeared in the vast crowd.

However, before Master Huiyuan left, he specifically told us not to send anyone to look for their whereabouts.

This is also the reason why he is willing to wait. As long as the catastrophe of Eleven is over, they may come back.

His mind was full of random thoughts as he carried Yinyou to the prince's residence.

There was some chaos in the prince's residence. Concubine Min was kneeling on the ground, with a look of dissatisfaction on her usually kind face. Yinxiang was kneeling beside Concubine Min, looking up at Concubine Yi.

Concubine Yi sat on the chair and asked coldly, "Thirteenth Prince, why did you strangle my cat to death?!"

"If you don't tell the truth, I won't let you go!"

He would not give up and would not spare Yinxiang or release Concubine Min.

When Yinxiang heard this, he stiffened his neck and said to Concubine Yi, "I didn't do it. I just didn't do it. Even if Concubine Yi beats me to death, I still didn't do it."

He continued to say to Concubine Yi: "If I strangled him to death, why would I leave it in my room, waiting for you to find it? Do you think I'm stupid?!"

He didn't know what was going on. He was already angry because of the fight with Yinzhen. Who knew that Concubine Yi suddenly ran into his room to search, and soon found a dead cat under his bed!

It's Chinese New Year, and a cat died under his bed. What bad luck!

Before he could say anything, Concubine Yi falsely accused him of strangling the cat to death. His mother was also implicated!

He was so angry that he was about to die. If he knew who did it, he would definitely send that person to the Ministry of Punishment!

Thinking of this, the rage in his heart grew even stronger, and a layer of bloodshot crept into his eyes.

Kangxi coughed lightly and walked over. After seeing Concubine Min kneeling on the ground, he said, "Liang Jiugong, go get a doctor for Concubine Min. Her health is not good to begin with. If Concubine Yi makes her sick, then some people in the former court will be unwilling to help her."

Concubine Yi was somewhat dissatisfied with what Kangxi said. Concubine Min was willing to take the blame on behalf of her son, so why couldn't she punish her? The people of the previous dynasty, could they extend their hands into the harem?

By then, won’t it just be a matter of the emperor saying something?

The emperor is clearly biased.

Yinyu saw the dissatisfaction on Concubine Yi's face, and he slipped down from Kangxi's arms and walked towards Yinxiang with his short legs. He took Yinxiang's hand and said to him in his childish voice, "Thirteen, get up."

Kangxi's expression was almost unbearable. He glanced at Yinyu, then said to Concubine Yi, "Concubine Yi, the cat was found in Thirteen's room, but how can you be sure that Thirteen strangled it to death?"

"If I secretly put this cat in your room, does that mean you strangled the cat to death yourself?"

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Yi's expression twisted for a moment. After a long while, she said, "Your Majesty, partiality is not like this. You sent my son Eleven away, saying that you wanted him to practice with Master Huiyuan. It sounds nice, but in reality, it's just exile, isn't it?!"

"You placed my little cat, Xiaowu, by the Queen Mother's side to raise her. Now only Xiaojiu is by my side. But this cat is his favorite and he raised it with his own hands. Can you bear to see Xiaojiu so heartbroken?"

Yinyu listened to Concubine Yi's words. He tilted his head and looked at Concubine Yi, and asked, "My Lady Yi, who told you that the cat was with Thirteen?!"

"You didn't look in so many places, but you found it right here at Thirteen. Is that such a coincidence?"

As he spoke, he ran towards Kangxi with his short legs, and then looked at Concubine Yi with his bright black eyes flashing.

Concubine Yi felt a little uneasy when Yinyou looked at her. Who told her that the cat was killed?

How did she know?

Thinking of this, the expression on her face suddenly became a little complicated, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Yinwei also changed.

There are indeed doubts in this, but when she heard the news that the cat had died, she was so panicked that she didn't think about anything else. Now she thinks that there are really many loopholes.

Seeing that she was silent, Kangxi reached out and patted Yinyu on the head, saying to him, "Concubine Yi, some things cannot be judged by appearances. If someone deliberately framed Yinxiang this time, and Concubine Min got into trouble because of your punishment, then you would have provoked hatred between the two families."

"Does that seem appropriate to you?"

The cat raised by Concubine Yi was snow-white and extremely beautiful. She had raised it for many years and had developed feelings for it.

He could understand all this, but he was unhappy that she was certain that Yinxiang did it without even thinking about it.

Concubine Yi looked at the expression on Yinxiang's face and responded silently. Today the cat died, so someone had to come out to let her vent her anger, otherwise she would feel very uncomfortable if she kept the anger in her heart.

Yinxiang was silent for a long moment before he turned to Concubine Yi and said, "My Lady, I've only seen this cat a few times before. It's absolutely impossible for it to just follow me away. If you don't believe me, I can call Fourteenth over. We just had a fight."

"He should be able to testify against me that I was with him the whole time."

"There's absolutely no time to strangle a cat."

Concubine Yi listened to his words for a long while before nodding. Then she said to the maidservant beside her, "Go and invite Fourteenth Prince over."

The little palace maid nodded to Concubine Yi, then walked towards the courtyard of the Fourteenth Prince.

He quickly brought Yinzhen over.

Yinzhen had bruises on his face. The moment he saw Yinxiang, he immediately went into fighting mode like a fighting cock.

Her gaze shifted to Kangxi, and she reluctantly took a few steps towards him, bowing and saying, "Greetings to the Emperor, to Concubine Yi, and to Concubine Min."

Then he lowered his head and looked at the ground, not daring to meet Yinyou's eyes.

Kangxi asked Yinzhen, "Fourteenth, have you been with Thirteenth the whole day?"

Yinzhen glanced at Yinxiang, nodded gloomily, and said, "Yes, we were originally looking at memorials together today, but then he cheated and we started fighting."

He couldn't help but complain, "Father, look at my face, it's all black from being beaten by him. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, how am I going to attend the banquet then?"

After this year, Yinzhen has completely adapted to life in the prince's residence. The only difference is that there is an annoying Yinxiang next to him.

When Yinxiang heard what Yinzhen said, he immediately got furious. He said to Kangxi, "Father, don't listen to him. He's the one who's cheating. We agreed that we'd each read memorials one day at a time, but today it's his turn, and he insisted on playing rock-paper-scissors. If he loses, he's cheating, saying I was late!"

"I have never seen such a shameless person!"

Kangxi listened to Yinxiang's words, coughed lightly and said, "Oh, then you punch him in the face?"

Yinxiang listened to this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, then he lifted his arm to reveal the bite marks, and said a little aggrievedly: "Then look at Fourteen biting me, can't I beat him up?"

Yinyu looked at the bruises on Yinxiang's arm, blinked, and said to System 679, "It's hard for an honest judge to judge family affairs. It turns out it's also hard to judge when brothers quarrel."

System 679 listened to Yinyu's words, and its childish, mechanical voice tinged with worry said, "You're right. It's really hard to judge. The confiscation of property by the two really wasn't entirely the fault of just one person."

He paused for a moment, then turned to Yinyu and said, "If you really want to split it up, have Yinxiang talk to Yinzhen, and have Yinzhen punch Yinxiang, and then divide the unfinished memorials."

"Maybe the two of them can reconcile."

Yinyu listened to System 679's advice, his lips twitching slightly. His gaze fell on the wounds of Yinzhen and Yinxiang, and he said to System 679, "System, are you sure they won't fight even harder if you do what you say?"

The ideas that this system comes up with are really unreliable.

This meal seemed very fair, but it definitely made the two of them enemies, and they might fight if something happens in the future.

It is better to handle the situation calmly and wait for both parties to realize their mistakes. Generally, when there is a quarrel, there is always one person who is at a disadvantage and is unwilling to suffer the loss, so they will quarrel and fight.

When Concubine Yi heard the topic had deviated, she turned directly to Yinzhen and asked, "Fourteenth, I want to ask you, have you been with Thirteenth all day today?"

If they were together, then it wasn't him who killed her cat. If they weren't together, then the cat was killed by Thirteen!

Yinzhen listened to Concubine Yi's words, looked at the person kneeling on the ground, and fell silent. He wanted to take revenge now, but he was worried that the price would be too high. If Concubine Yi wanted to beat Thirteen, it would be fine if she beat him lightly, but if she beat him too hard, Thirteen might never pay attention to him again.

Thinking of this, he nodded to Concubine Yi and said, "Well, we have been reading memorials together since this morning, and it has been almost two hours now."

After he said that, he looked at Yinxiang, then lowered his head and looked at the ground.

He didn't dare to look at Yinyou at all. Just now he heard the voice of Fifteen and the monster talking, and now he wanted to go back.

Yinyu looked at the expression on Yinzhen's face and asked the 679 system in his mind: "System, why does Fourteen always look so scared when he sees me? What's wrong with me? Why is he so afraid of me?"

System 679 was silent for a moment before turning to Yinyu and saying, "Well, since the first time you met him, bad things have happened to him. His mother was imprisoned, and he was sent to the prince's residence. And every time he meets you, something always happens. Do you think he is afraid of you in his heart?"

Upon hearing what System 679 said, Yinyu immediately retorted, "You can't blame me for this. His mother gave him ice cubes to win her favor. If it weren't for me, who knows how much torture he would have endured in front of his mother."

"Besides, it's not my fault that she was locked up overnight. It was she who tortured Fourth Brother and almost caused him to die of fever. You can't put the blame on me, right?"

At this point, he paused slightly and then continued, "System, Fourteen went to the study last year, right? Hasn't he gained wisdom yet? He still doesn't know who treats him well and who doesn't?"

Yinzhen pouted unconsciously when he heard this person openly saying bad things about him behind his back.

No matter how bad his mother treated him, she was still his mother. It was just that she was a little too harsh on his fourth brother and almost caused him to have a fever and burn to death. He knew this.

So now he would often visit his fourth brother, bringing him small toys, snacks and the like, hoping that he would one day forgive his mother's mistakes.

He hasn't seen his mother for a long time and he misses her.

While Yinzhen was daydreaming, Concubine Yi's face became a little ugly. She did not expect that Yinyu's guess was true, nor did she expect that Yinxiang was actually not in the prince's residence. When she saw the cat early in the morning, it was still fine.

The cat had only been lost for an hour when it died in Yinxiang's yard. Yinxiang and Yinzhen never came back and had been reading memorials in Shisi's yard.

This is clearly a case of being wronged.

Thinking of this, she bowed slightly to Minpin and said, "I'm sorry, Minpin, I didn't understand the situation clearly and put the blame on Thirteen, causing you to suffer as well."

At this point, her gaze shifted slightly, landing on the person next to her: "If I find out who touched the cat, I will chop off his claws."

After she finished speaking, she turned to Kangxi with red eyes and said, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!"

At this time, Doctor Li hurried in from outside. When he saw Concubine Min's pale face, his brows knitted unconsciously. He saluted to Kangxi and said, "Greetings to the Emperor."

Kangxi nodded slightly and said to him, "Go check on Concubine Min. Her health was not good to begin with, and now she's been kneeling here for a while. I'm worried that her old illness may relapse."

Concubine Min covered her mouth with her hand and coughed for a while, then smiled and shook her head, saying, "Your Majesty, I'm fine. I just caught a cold. I'll go back and drink some ginger soup to get rid of the cold."

She knew her own body condition well. After what happened today, she might get seriously ill when she returned home.

But she didn't want Concubine Yi to think that she did it on purpose and thus bear a grudge against Yinxiang.

No matter what, even if she fainted today, she had to return to her own palace first.

Kangxi's eyes fell on Concubine Min, and he said to Concubine Yi: "Concubine Yi, I remember you have a century-old mountain ginseng. Since it is an apology, please give it to Concubine Min."

Such wild ginseng is very rare.

She wronged Concubine Min, how could she not shed blood?

When Concubine Yi heard what Kangxi said, she looked at Concubine Min's pale face and said to Kangxi, "Yes, I will send someone to get it right away."

As she spoke, she glanced at the senior palace maid beside her, then turned to Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, what should I do with my cat?"

"It has been with me for several years, even longer than the fifteenth has been with the emperor. Please help me, emperor."

The emperor is the fastest to investigate things in the palace, so she wants to find out the murderer who killed his cat as quickly as possible.

Yinyu looked at the tear marks on Concubine Yi's face and asked in his childish voice, "I want to know, does Concubine Yi's cat usually care about people?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Yi looked at Yinyou and shook her head slightly: "I have raised him to be a bit picky about food. He doesn't let people touch him. Even if Xiaojiu wants to be hugged, I have to use dried fish to coax him."

"Hua'er usually likes to sleep in my arms, and there is also a senior maid beside me who is responsible for cleaning it."

"Hua'er is usually close to the two of us, but everyone else has to take the initiative."

Upon hearing this, Yinyu yawned and nestled into Kangxi's arms. He said to Concubine Yi, "Since it was so unkind, it would have struggled when it died. The person who killed the cat must have scratches on his body. You can send someone to check and you'll know."

When Concubine Yi heard this, her expression suddenly changed. She nodded at Yinyu and said, "You're right. You're really desperate and are trying all kinds of treatments."

At this time, Concubine Yi's IQ seemed to have recovered all of a sudden. She saluted Kangxi and walked out.

After everyone had gone far away, System 679 said to Yin Yu, "Host, you were so amazing just now. I don't know when my host became so smart."

Yinyu listened to his words, buried his head in Kangxi's arms, and said with a smile: "That's because my father taught me well, otherwise I wouldn't have made such great progress."

Having said this, he turned to look at Yinzhen, then said to System 679, "I'll definitely find a chance to talk to Yinzhen later to find out why he's so afraid of me."

When Yinzhen heard this, he felt like the sky had fallen. He was already scared to death of him, so why did he want to talk to him?

Is it okay if he doesn’t chat?
