Chapter 63 Chapter 63 Chapter 63

On New Year's Eve, the entire palace was bustling with activity. Kangxi began his work early in the morning and didn't return until dusk. The moment he saw Yinyu, he immediately hugged him in his arms and said with a bright smile, "Fifteen, I haven't seen you all day. Do you miss me?"

After saying this, he kissed Yinyu on the cheek and said with a smile, "There have been a lot of things happening this year. Just now, it was said that there was a snowstorm in Wei County, 50 kilometers away from us, and many people were buried."

"We won't celebrate the festival this year. Let's just have a simple meal together."

Yinyu listened to his words, his expression becoming somewhat complicated. He hesitated for a moment before asking Kangxi in a childish voice, "Then, Daddy, do they have nothing to eat?"

Winter is worse than not having food to eat. You won’t die from not having food for a day, but you can freeze to death in such cold weather.

Thinking of this, he asked System 679, "System, how much gold do I have now?"

He had saved a lot of gold. He liked gold, but he was also willing to give it to his father so that his father could use it for disaster relief.

Upon hearing this, the childish mechanical voice of System 679 suddenly became excited. It said to Yinyu, "I just calculated for you. Not counting the gold mine under Junggar, you have two boxes of gold in total, and a lot of other things, not counting the gold jewelry. That's about it."

As he spoke, he turned to Yinyu and asked, "Host, are you going to give this to your father?"

Yinyou was silent for a while, his bright black eyes staring at Kangxi, waiting for Kangxi to answer the question.

Kangxi listened to the system's words, looked at the childish look on Yinyou's face, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch it, saying, "Yes, many people can't eat or wear cotton clothes. Daddy is now preparing to send people to buy quilts so that those people won't freeze to death."

At this point, he couldn't help but sigh. Last year, there was heavy snow in the capital, which collapsed many houses and caused a snow disaster. This year, the disaster happened in a place hundreds of kilometers away from the capital.

The past few years have been somewhat turbulent.

Yinyu listened to Kangxi's words, and a solemn expression appeared on his young face. Then he said to Kangxi, "Father, the gold you gave me before is all in the storehouse. If you need it, just take it away."

At this point, he asked System 679 in his mind, "My father said he wanted to buy quilts, why didn't he let the people donate?"

"Although the people are poor, they have many worn-out cotton clothes, especially those from wealthy families. They can donate these to alleviate the court's difficulties."

Many of the old cotton-padded clothes at home have been thrown away. Wouldn’t it be better to donate them?

When the 679 system heard this, its childish mechanical voice said to Yinyu, "Host, you are still too naive. People from wealthy families have secondhand clothes of high quality. Those things are naturally given as rewards to those around them."

"And they gave the old cotton-padded clothes of those around them directly to those close to them, which was a favor."

"Further down the line, although there are a lot of these things, they end up in the hands of ordinary people, and they are all very worn out. Then they use them to make other clothes or quilts, etc. No one is willing to throw them away."

"As for donations, not many people are willing to give them."

"Besides, the place where the accident happened this time is not the capital. There is no way to take out so many things for disaster relief at once. Many people may die by then."

In ancient times, natural disasters were completely unavoidable, and even man-made disasters could only be endured silently.

The time of Kangxi was considered peaceful. If it had been a time of war, life would have been at the mercy of fate.

Yinyu put his arm around Kangxi's neck and remained silent. Finally, he said to System 679, "After all, our era was the best."

Yes, people in that era would not starve to death as long as they were willing to work hard, and there was the country's support behind them during natural disasters. It's not that Kangxi didn't care at that time, but that everyone had nothing in their hands and could only help to a limited extent.

Kangxi listened to his words, hugged him, kissed his little face, and said to him: "Daddy still has silver in the treasury, and does not need Fifteen's gold. If Fifteen really wants to help, let Sun go to the disaster area to provide disaster relief."

"When the time comes, I will also accumulate good karma for the fifteenth, so that the fifteenth can live a safe and healthy life."

While he said this, he was thinking about Yinyou's words in his heart. What was that era like that made Fifteen still remember it, and made the 679 system agree with him.

At this moment, the era mentioned by Yinyou really aroused Kangxi's curiosity.

Yinyu listened to Kangxi's words and immediately said happily, "Okay."

He got off Kangxi's body and called out to Madam Sun, "Madam Sun."

Sun came in hurriedly from outside. She saluted Kangxi first, then squatted down and said to Yinyu with a smile on her face, "Fifteenth Prince, what's the matter?"

Yinyu put his hands on his waist and said solemnly to Madam Sun, "Madam Sun, my father said that you have to go to provide disaster relief for the snow disaster."

Then he said to Sun: "Buy sheep, cook sheep soup, and let them eat meat during the New Year."

After he finished speaking, he counted on his little fingers towards Sun and said, "Then half a box of gold, is that enough?"

Mutton soup is hot in nature and drinking too much can easily cause a sore throat, but for those who have suffered from the cold and snowstorm, it is a lifesaver. It warms their bodies and prevents them from freezing to death.

Whenever you feel cold, go have a bowl of soup and you will always be warm.

Sun understood what he meant, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face. She nodded to Yinyou and said, "Okay, then I will go there now."

As for sheep, you can buy them on the way. Once you bring them with you, you can save many people.

Her fifteenth prince is really kind-hearted.

Yinyu nodded slightly, a trace of sadness on his young face. He turned to look at Kangxi and asked him, "Dad, is this okay?"

Kangxi hadn't expected Yinyu's disaster relief to be to give the people in the disaster area mutton soup. He looked at his childish face, squatted down and looked him in the eye, and said, "Fifteen did a great job. Daddy didn't even think of such a good idea as Fifteen's."

When he said this, he gently pinched Yinyou's little face with his hand and summoned the ministers from the Shangshufang to come to the Ganqing Palace to discuss things.

This New Year's Eve is destined to be turbulent.

New Year’s Eve passed in a flash, and even the fifteenth day of the first lunar month passed without anyone noticing.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of February. The snow disaster issue was completely resolved, and Kangxi walked in from outside with Yinzhen and Yinreng.

After seeing the man, Yinyu ran over with his short legs. He hugged Kangxi's calf and said happily, "Dad, are you finally done with your work?"

Kangxi reached out and hugged the man directly in his arms, pinched his fair and tender face, smiled and nodded, "Yes, this time it was really thanks to the mutton soup from the fifteenth that no one in the entire disaster area froze to death. In addition to this, your remaining gold was used by the Sun family to help build a house over there."

"The people also spontaneously helped each other, so that there were no riots in the entire disaster area."

Having said this, he hugged Yinyu and gave him a kiss, then said with a happy smile: "This is the most successful disaster relief effort."

He had done a lot of disaster relief work before by sending people, but there were always a lot of troubles every time. This time, with the mutton soup on the 15th, the victims in the entire disaster area were very cooperative.

And there was no fighting or rioting at all.

When Yinyu heard Kangxi's words, a bright smile suddenly appeared on his tender little face. He raised his chin slightly and said to Kangxi, "Dad, those disaster victims suffered from the snowstorm just for a bite of food. Let's not talk about how good and full the food is for them."

"But having a bowl of hot soup can keep people's hopes up."

Then he put his hands on his hips and said to Kangxi in a somewhat arrogant tone: "Daddy, am I very powerful?"

Kangxi listened to Yinyu's words, his eyebrows curved with a smile. He kissed him on the face and said, "Yes, Fifteen is right, that's it."

Yinreng reached out and snatched the boy from Kangxi's arms. He pinched his little face and said to him happily, "How could Fifteen be so smart? I had already thought of it."

After saying this, he turned to Yinzhen and said, "Brother, Fifteen is smarter than all of us."

The expression on Yinzhi's face changed slightly, and he chuckled: "Being smart is good, isn't it? Being smart is good."

"I just like smart brothers."

Yinyou listened to Yinzhi's words and looked at the smiles on their faces, and a sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.

He asked System 679 in his mind, "Why do I feel like my eldest and second brothers are smiling with such malicious intent?!"

Upon hearing this, the 679 system's childish, mechanical voice said, "I feel the same way. Comparing their smiles with the ones stored in the mainframe, there's a discrepancy. It can be determined that they have designs on you."

"Host, you have to be careful not to be tricked by them."

The words of the 679 system made the smiles on Yinzhi and Yinreng's faces suddenly stiffen. With such a system, it might be a bit difficult to trick Fifteen.

But there is still hope.

Yin Yu listened to the system's words and nodded silently in his heart: "You are right, I must be more careful and must not be deceived by my eldest and second brothers."

He paused briefly, then turned to System 679 and asked, "By the way, wasn't Concubine Yi's cat dead a long time ago? Why haven't we heard from her recently? Did she find the thief who killed it?"

So many days have passed, it might be difficult to find it.

The wounds from the cat scratches have probably healed by now.

Upon hearing this, System 679 said to Yinyu, "It's not that they didn't find her, but the maid denied it and said she was injured by a tree branch. Concubine Yi had no way to stop her."

"The main concern is that I might punish the wrong person and upset your father, who might get angry and ground her."

Yinyu listened to his words and sighed, "I knew it. Concubine Yi is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. She bullies the weak and fears the strong."

Kangxi, Yinzhen and Yinreng were speechless for a moment as they listened to the jumping topic of "one man unifies the country".

He was just talking about preventing Yinzhen and Yinreng from cheating him, but now he starts to care about Concubine Yi's cat.

Kangxi felt somewhat helpless and told Yinzhen and the other man about other things, no longer paying attention to the man's words about unifying the country.

System 679 said to Yinyu, "But this concubine is really bad. Your mother's premature birth was related to her!"

Upon hearing this, Yinyu's young face was filled with shock. He asked System 679, "Did she attack my mother and cause her premature birth?"

System 679 nodded and said, "Of course, you'll know after watching the short video."

As soon as he finished speaking, a picture appeared in front of him.

The pearl necklace in Xue Changzai's hand suddenly broke and fell to the ground, jumping and scattering on the ground at this moment.

She just took a quick look and then walked outside as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, Wang was walking past here, holding her belly and looking pale. As she reached there, she slipped and fell directly into the flowers next to her.

Xue Changzai rushed over from outside. She glanced at her personal maid and quickly helped Wang up. At this moment, Wang's face suddenly changed, and then she held her stomach and cried out in pain: "Sister Xue, I'm afraid I'm going to give birth."

As soon as these words were spoken, the picture slowly came to a stop.

System 679 sighed to Yinyu, "Your mother's premature birth was actually caused by many people. No one wanted you to be born."

"Your mother was very favored at the time, and she was afraid that your birth would affect the status of certain people."

He deliberately spoke very harshly about that certain person.

As Yinyu listened to System 679's words, a scowl of anger appeared on his young face, and his dark eyes were stained with a layer of fire. He angrily asked System 679, "Then why didn't you tell me before?"

Now that she has killed Xiaohua, she tells it out.

Thinking of this, his eyes rolled around, and then he said to Kangxi: "Dad, I'm going out to play."

Then, without waiting for Kangxi to speak, he ran outside with his short legs.

Although the weather was still very cold, it was much better than before the New Year. At this time, the sunlight shone on his body with a faint warmth. He ran all the way to the prince's residence and walked towards Yin'er's courtyard.

Before Kangxi, Yinzhen and Yinreng could react to the short video, they saw Yinyou running out like a gust of wind.

Kangxi said to Liang Jiugong who was standing beside him, "Let Sun follow, quickly."

Yinreng looked at Yinyu's back and said with a smile, "Father, don't worry. Fifteenth is a vindictive man, so he's definitely going to seek revenge. If he can't solve it himself, he'll most likely go find Concubine Yi."

Concubine Yi's cat died, and it was Xue Changzai who did it. Fifteen's premature birth was also related to Xue Changzai, so how could Fifteen let her go?

Yinzhen listened to his words, smiled and shook his head, saying: "I don't think so. Concubine Yi is an adult, she may not believe him, but if he goes to find Yinzhen or Yinqi, maybe things can be done."

These two people were able to hear the conversation between Yinyou and the 679 system, and they could also see the short video, so they had absolute trust in Fifteen. So Fifteen went to them for a good reason.

When Yinreng heard Yinzhi's analysis, he immediately felt that it was correct. He said to Kangxi, "Father, I think my elder brother is very smart. He actually thought of this so quickly."

As he spoke, Yinzhen's face darkened as he continued, "I think he is more suitable to be the crown prince than me."

Yinzhi glared at Yinreng and was speechless for a long time. Now Yinreng was so annoying that he could even relate to giving up the position of crown prince voluntarily.

He didn't want to be deposed, nor did he want to be the crown prince, so he thought of praising his brothers so that his father, the emperor, would see their good qualities and let him abdicate in favor of someone more capable.

There are so many good things there, who would care about his position as the crown prince.

When he reached the door, he pushed it open and walked in, shouting, "Is anyone there, Brother Jiu? Are you there?"

Yinzhen, who was in the house, heard the sound and came out. When he saw such a small person standing in the yard, he immediately walked towards him with a smile, pinched his little face with his hand, and asked him, "Why did you come to see me, Shiwu? Is there something wrong?"

When Yinyu heard what Yin'er said, he immediately widened his eyes and asked him, "Nine Brother, has Concubine Yi's Xiaohua caught the murderer?"

When Yin'er heard this, his expression immediately turned ugly. He looked at Yin'er and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

Xiaohua's death made him very sad. He suspected that Yinxiang strangled Xiaohua to death, but he could not find any evidence. Fourteen testified for him, which gave him evidence of his alibi.

Sooner or later he will find the murderer who killed Xiaohua and avenge her.

Yinyu took a step back and said to him, "Ninth Brother, I know who killed Xiaohua. Do you need my help?"

When System 679 heard Yinyu's words, it suddenly became anxious. Its childish, mechanical voice urged Yinyu, "Why don't you just tell him that Xue Changzai strangled the cat and put it in Yinxiang's room?"

Yinyu said to System 679, "How can that be possible? What if Yinlu doesn't believe me? Then all my efforts would be in vain."

"We have to find the evidence, and then people will be convinced."

At this point, he paused slightly, and said in a cunning voice: "Even if I can't find it, I can still make him feel guilty. After all, Xiaohua was really strangled to death by her."

"The scars on her hands will definitely leave scars, which will be ready-made evidence."

When Yinzhen heard what Yiren Yitong said, the expression on his face could hardly be suppressed. He knew that Shiwu was different before, but he didn't expect it to be so different.

No wonder his royal father doted on him so much. If he could find the murderer of Xiaohua, he would also be good to Shiwu.

Thinking of this, he asked Yinyu, "Are you telling the truth? Can you really find the murderer who killed Xiaohua?"

He had met Concubine Xue a few times at his mother's place, as Fifteen had just mentioned her to the system. Because of their relationship, his mother had taken good care of her. But she had never imagined that she was actually Xiaohua's murderer?!

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered the scars left after he killed Xiaohua. He said to Yinyu, "Last time, you said that the person who killed Xiaohua must have scratches on his body. My mother sent people to look for the person with scratches one by one but couldn't find the one with scratches. So we still suspect that Thirteen did it."

"Because we had no evidence, and the Emperor was partial to us, we didn't take action against Thirteen."

When he said this, he was furious.

Yinyu looked at Yin'er's handsome face, which was flushed. He then said to him, "Ninth Brother, did Concubine Yi only look for people close to her? I saw a large wound on Concubine Xue's hand. It looked like she had been scratched."

"Do you think she killed Xiaohua?"

Yin'er's expression turned grim as he listened to his words. After a long while, he said sullenly, "I can't just strip her clothes off and see. Even my mother can't do that."

Yin Yu listened to his words, was silent for a moment, and then said to him: "Since Brother Nine wants to give up revenge, then I have no choice but to observe a minute of silence for Xiao Hua. In the heart of its owner, it is a dispensable existence."

Yin'er was immediately angered by Yin'er's words. He asked Yin'er, "Then what do you say we should do? This scar will never go away. If all else fails, let my mother do it. Then we'll know what's going on."

After he finished speaking, he looked down at Yinyu's childish face, then pinched it and said to him, "Fifteen, you're so young, but you're quite cunning. How dare you try to provoke me here?!"

He grew up in the palace and is not a fool. How could he not understand the meaning of his words? Not understanding at the moment does not mean that he will never understand.

Yin Yu raised his hand and patted his hand, then said to him, "Ninth Brother, I'm smart, I can think of it. Have you thought of it?"

After saying this, he mentally said to System 679, "System, after Xue Changzai killed the cat, did he do anything else?"

When System 679 heard this, it immediately said to Yinyu, "There's a short video of this."

As he spoke, the short video was released.

A scene appeared in front of Yinyou. When Xue Changzai was catching the cat, the cat was very uncooperative. It kicked its four legs back and forth, leaving blood marks on Xue Changzai's arms.

After her hand fell on the cat's neck, she became so tired that she twisted the cat's neck with one hand.

She looked around, picked up the cat and walked outside.

The moment I stood up, I saw a purse fell to the ground.

Yinzhen looked at the scene in front of him in shock, his heart pounding. After a long while, he said to Yinyu, "Fifteen is really smart."

If he can see it, then others can see it too.

The past is so clear. If I offend Fifteen, will his future be broadcast in public?!

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt like a time bomb.

Yinyu looked at the expression on Yin'er's face and immediately laughed happily. He put his hands on his hips and said to Yin'er, "Of course, I'm smart. Not only did I know you were in the room, I also knew you skipped class."

"If I tell the Emperor about your skipping classes, not only will you not be able to avenge the child, you'll also be beaten."

When Yin'er heard Yin'er's threat, the expression on his face twisted. He took back what he had just said. Fifteen is too smart!

Thinking of this, he asked: "Then what do you want?!"

Yinyu suddenly laughed and said to Yin'er, "Give me a box of gold and I won't tell the emperor. Even if he finds out, I will plead for you."

Yinzhen looked at the little one in front of him, with his hands on his hips, and that chubby and cute appearance, but the words he said were actually blackmailing him!
