Qing Dynasty Transmigration: Winning by Lying Down

Emperor Yongzheng defeated his brothers and ascended the throne, only to die exhausted after thirteen years, leaving behind ambitions unfulfilled. Unwilling to accept this fate, his soul wandered t...

Chapter Five: Yinzhen's Suspicion

Similarly, Yunrong also knew that her father seemed to have died mysteriously during the campaign to abolish the Three Feudatories.

History records only mention him in one sentence, but Yunrong knows her father is now full of energy! He doesn't seem like someone who would die young at all; there must be some secret behind it.

Considering the rewards bestowed by Emperor Kangxi after her father's death, and the smooth careers of her brothers, she felt that her father should have been innocently implicated.

Yunrong didn't care about anything else; she was determined to save her father's life.

Yunrong complained, "How old is the Emperor and how old are you? The Emperor is not yet twenty and is in his prime. You are over forty. Don't be like the Emperor. The Emperor is the Emperor of all the people, but Father is Yunrong's Father!"

Misihan was touched by his daughter's words. He thought to himself that his daughter was the most considerate. He hadn't even decided to get tired yet, and his daughter was already showing concern. He had given birth to four sons, but none of them cared about him. He had raised them all in vain.

Mi Sihan smiled with emotion and said, "Father understands, Rong'er. Don't worry, Father will definitely put his health first from now on. Father is still looking forward to holding his grandson!"

Yunrong blushed and said, "Father~"

Mishan: "Father was wrong. I won't tease you anymore. Tell me, what brings you here to see me today?"

Misihan doted on his daughter, and knowing that a daughter's perspective shouldn't be limited to the inner quarters, he raised Yunrong according to the same manners a daughter should learn, except for the rules that a son should learn.

Yunrong came from an era of information overload, and she was also very intelligent. Mi Sihan often sighed that if his daughter were a boy, she would definitely be more capable than her brothers.

Yunrong's four older brothers were already outstanding among the spoiled young masters, so the fact that Mi Sihan was so impressed shows how intelligent Yunrong was.

Yunrong handed Misihan a wooden box: "Father, take a look at this first."

Missham took the wooden box, opened it, and found a stack of papers covered with writing.

Mishan looked at it carefully, then asked with mixed feelings, "Are you telling the truth?"

Yunrong: "My daughter had the nanny find out! Father can also send someone to inquire again, just to be on the safe side."

Mishan: "This is a very important matter. Tell the people around you not to tell anyone. Ama will verify it carefully."

Seeing that Mi Sihan believed most of it, Yunrong said a few more words and then went back.

After Yunrong left, Mi Sihan sent his trusted confidants to investigate. There were many people around the capital who had been involved in prostitution, so it wasn't difficult to find out.

A month later, Mi Sihan received news from his confidant and went to pay his respects to Emperor Kangxi with the wooden box.

As Yinzhen was reading the memorials, Liang Jiugong came over to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Mi Sihan requests an audience."

Yinzhen had a very good impression of Misihan!

Yinzhen: "Summon him in."

Mi Sihan entered carrying a wooden box, and Yinzhen became interested when he saw that Mi Sihan was carrying a wooden box.

Yinzhen smiled gently and said, "Lord Misihan, you've brought a treasure with you."

Misihan said, "Your Majesty, my servant accidentally discovered something. I felt it was of great importance, so I came to report it to Your Majesty. This wooden box contains what I wanted to report. Your Majesty will know once you see it!"

Yinzhen: "Liang Jiugong! Bring him here!"

Liang Jiugong took the wooden box from Mi Sihan, opened it, took out the papers inside, and presented them on Yinzhen's desk!

Yinzhen picked it up and looked at it. After reading it, his expression was strange for a moment. It's no wonder that Yinzhen's expression was strange. He knew that cowpox could effectively prevent smallpox, but he had been too busy since he came here and hadn't thought of it. He didn't expect that Misihan would bring it up!

Yinzhen felt something was strange. In his previous life, Mi Sihan should not have produced this investigation result, otherwise it would have been fine!

Yinzhen thought that perhaps someone had a similar situation to him and could foresee the future, otherwise this investigation result would not make sense!

Yinzhen looked delighted: "I will send someone to verify this matter. If it is true, I will reward you handsomely. It is a blessing for the people of the Qing Dynasty to have an official like you!"

Mi Sihan humbly replied, "This is what a servant should do; I do not deserve such praise from Your Majesty!"

Yinzhen smiled and said, "If I say it's a loan, then it's a loan! You go back first, and I'll verify it and then have a proper discussion with the officials!"

Mishan: "This servant takes his leave!"

After Mi Sihan left, the surprise and smile on Yinzhen's face immediately disappeared. Yinzhen dismissed Liang Jiugong, then summoned the secret guards and ordered them to find out everything about Mi Sihan's household affairs, big or small!

Then he summoned the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Academy, showed them the contents of the wooden box, and instructed them to conduct thorough experiments, promising them a great reward for their success!

The emperor's secret guards were extremely capable; in just three or four days, they had thoroughly investigated everything about Misihan's residence!

As Yinzhen listened to the report from the secret guards, he suddenly discovered a place he had never been before. In his previous life, Yinzhen had never heard that Misihan had a daughter. Back then, in order to choose a consort for his son Hongli, he had investigated all the ancestors of the Fucha family for eight generations!

So Yinzhen set his sights on Fucha Yunrong!

Yinzhen: "Investigate Misihan's daughter carefully. I need all her deeds from childhood to adulthood!"

The secret guards ordered by Yinzhen didn't take Fucha Yunrong seriously, so they didn't have much information about her! Yinzhen wanted to understand this person who hadn't appeared in his previous life, so he naturally sent people to investigate more thoroughly!

Five or six days later, Yinzhen obtained accurate information about Fucha Yunrong from the secret guards. Naturally, she learned that Fucha Yunrong was a premature baby whose life had been in danger at one point, but she grew up to be lively and energetic, and rarely got sick!
