Yinreng took a fancy to a piece of wasteland on the outskirts of the southern city. After asking, he found out that the land belonged to Prince Ping.

Yinreng: “…”

At that time, Nerfu and Alinga conspired to get a share of the coal mining industry, but Yinreng did not give them any face. Although Nerfu did not lose his title, he was scolded by Kangxi and was punished to reflect on himself in seclusion for half a year.

Yinreng knew with his toes that even if he went to see Prince Ping in person, Prince Ping would definitely not agree to his request.

Moreover, he has now offended all the civil and military officials in the court. If he wants to get this land, he needs to plan carefully.

After Yinzhen learned about this, he volunteered to negotiate with Prince Ping, but was stopped by Yinreng.

"You follow me on my errands all day long. If you go, Nerfu will guess at once that it is I who want the land, and he won't sell it to you."

"Then we can't just sit there and waste time."

Yinreng pinched his nose and said,

"You've given me a heads-up. We can't show up, but there's one person who can..."

"who?"

"Prince Yu."

The people around Yinreng could not come forward, and as for those royal relatives who had no relationship with him and no grudges against him, he could not invite them. Prince Yu Fuquan was the best choice.

In fact, apart from Prince Yu, Yinzhi could also achieve his desired goal, but the third prince fell ill again after the spring. If there was nothing important, Yinreng did not intend to bother him.

It’s really a headache.

After Yinzhi returned from Jiangnan, he stayed at home for half a year to recuperate, but the effect was just so-so.

Even with the royal top medical team, it would not be easy to recover Yinzhi's qi and blood deficiency.

Last winter, Yinzhi suffered a lot from mourning for Concubine Wenxi, and she fell ill again after a long delay.

It hasn't fully healed yet.

That evening, Yinzhen arrived at Prince Yu's mansion.

Prince Yu was teaching Baoshou Chinese in the study. When he heard that the Fourth Prince had come, he was a little puzzled.

He had not received any visiting card from the Fourth Prince in the past two days. It was really against the royal etiquette for him to visit him so presumptuously.

However, since everyone had already arrived at the door, he could not close the door and refuse them. Otherwise, it would be a disgrace to the royal family, and it would not only be the Fourth Prince Yinzhen who would be affected.

Fuquan said something to Baoshou, then walked towards the main hall with a smile on his face.

Yinzhen was sitting in the middle hall. When he heard the footsteps, he quickly stood up to greet them.

"Yinzhen has met Amuji."

Looking at Yinzhen who was saluting him, Fuquan slightly turned his body to the side.

"Fourth Prince, there's no need to be so polite..."

After Yinzhen stood up, Fuquan asked him kindly about the purpose of his visit today, but did not mention the visiting card.

Yinzhen also knew that his visit today was a bit abrupt, so he apologized first, and then said,

"I came to see Amuji today because I have an important matter to ask of you."

The implication is obvious: this is not the place for conversation.

Fuquan tightened his hands behind his back.

He usually didn't communicate much with the princes, and the only one he had some friendship with was the Crown Prince. The Fourth Prince's actions today were a little confusing to him.

Prince Yu subconsciously wanted to shirk responsibility.

"If it's a matter of the court, I'm afraid I can't do anything..."

"You haven't even heard what it is, so why are you so sure there's nothing you can do?"

Upon hearing this, Prince Yu felt a little uneasy, but he also saw that Yinzhen was determined to achieve his goal.

Forget it, let me first listen to what the Fourth Prince wants him to help with.

Prince Yu took Yinzhen to the side room next to the study.

After sending the servants away, Fuquan asked,

"What exactly does Fourth Prince want me to do for you?"

"It wasn't me. It was the Crown Prince's second brother who took a fancy to a piece of land in the suburbs of Beijing, but that land was under the name of Prince Ping."

Prince Yu suddenly realized.

The prince does not have a very good reputation among the royal family. If the prince goes directly to Nerfu, Nerfu will not sell the land to the prince even if it rots in his hands.

But...what does this have to do with him?

He had some friendship with the prince, but not so close that he would help him to betray his fellow clansmen.

Prince Yu knew very well that as long as he followed the emperor firmly and did not play any tricks, no one could shake his position.

Prince Yu gave a bitter smile.

"If I had known that this was what you wanted, I would not have brought you here..."

Yinzhen smiled slightly.

"Amuji, don't rush to refuse. My second brother said that in exchange, he can agree to one condition of yours."

Prince Yu shook his head and said,

"No offer is worth offending my own clan. Please go back, Fourth Prince. I still have some things to deal with."

As he spoke, he stood up, his intention to see the guest off was obvious.

"Of course Amuji doesn't need it, but what about Baotai and Baoshou? Are you sure they won't make mistakes in the future?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Prince Yu's face darkened. Yinzhen's words seemed to be a "curse" on Baoshou and Baotai, which sounded particularly harsh to him.

Prince Yu stared at Yinzhen with a bad face, and his voice was filled with a strong chill.

"Fourth Prince should be more careful with his words and actions. Baotai and Baoshou have their father, the prince, to take care of them, so the Crown Prince and Fourth Prince don't need to worry about them."

Not to mention whether the prince can ascend to the throne in the future as he offends people everywhere, even if he successfully inherits the throne, Baotai and Baoshou will never commit a crime that will lead to them being stripped of their titles and beheaded.

Prince Yu had absolute confidence in his two sons.

Yinzhen looked up at Prince Yu, a hint of complexity flashing across his eyes.

"Amuji seems confident... but do you really know Baotai?"

"What do you mean? How could this father of mine not understand his own son?"

Seeing Prince Yu's face full of anger, Yinzhen sighed slightly.

"If you had paid attention to who Baotai was associating with, you wouldn't have said such things today... Amuji, my second brother and I have no ill will towards you. If you have thought it through, you can send someone to my house to let me know."

What's the meaning? !

Prince Yu was stunned. Just as he was about to ask for clarification, he saw Yinzhen stand up, bow to him, and walk out of the room without looking back.

Prince Yu frowned deeply—

"Go and bring the servants from Baotaiyuan to me. I want to question them!"
