Chapter 54 Chapter 54 Chapter 54
Yinreng wiped the wine off his face expressionlessly, with anger in his eyes.
He also saw the picture, so why didn't he spray the wine? His elder brother sprayed the wine, so why did he have to spray it in his direction?
He definitely did it on purpose!
He sprayed wine at him on purpose!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He let the remaining wine flow down his face without wiping it off, and stared at Yinzhi angrily.
After a while, he turned to Kangxi and said aggrievedly: "Father, my elder brother bullied me."
Fifteen. His royal father is on his side. If he is bullied, won’t his royal father help him?
Thinking of this, his eyes became red as he looked at Kangxi.
Kangxi also saw the picture played by 679, and his reaction was not that big. However, when he saw Yinreng's face full of alcohol, he couldn't help but laugh.
But when I saw his eyes red with grievance, I suddenly felt that my smile was a little inappropriate.
He quickly put his hand to his mouth and coughed lightly, then said to the others, "Yinreng, your elder brother didn't mean it. Do you want to go downstairs and change your clothes?"
It just so happened that he didn't want him to get involved in Soetu's affairs, so it would be better to let him leave directly.
When Yinreng heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he looked at Yinzhi. Was this what his elder brother meant by spraying wine on him?
His elder brother was not spraying him with wine again, he was using the method of spraying him with wine to help him.
He actually misunderstood him.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little touched and a little guilty.
He stood up from his chair and saluted Kangxi, saying, "Yes."
After saying that, he left the banquet.
As soon as Yinreng left, Soetu's panic became more and more intense. He looked at his back and then at the smile on Yinzhi's face. He knew in his heart that if there were no special circumstances, he would be finished.
At this moment, Kang Qiao was brought in. Her face was stern, her lips pressed into a straight line. The moment she saw Kangxi, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him, saying, "Your Majesty!"
Kangxi nodded slightly at her and asked in a cold voice, "Kang Qiao, you said you had something to present to me. Did you bring it?"
His people have been following Kang Qiao and he is not worried that she will cause trouble.
Now it's time to use her to hand the evidence over to him.
Kang Qiao kowtowed to Kangxi and said expressionlessly, "Yes, I have brought them all. Please have a look, Your Majesty."
As she finished speaking, she took out an account book from her arms and held it high above her head.
Liang Jiugong took small steps towards Kang Qiao. He reached out and picked up the account book, walked towards Kangxi, stood in front of Kangxi, and carefully opened the account book so that Kangxi could see what was in the book.
Kangxi glanced at the contents, his expression suddenly darkening. Without even placing the teacup on the table, he threw it directly at Suo Etu and asked in a cold voice, "Suo Etu, do you need me to read you what you did?"
He originally just wanted to take back all the land that Soetu had enclosed and increase tax revenue. Now that he saw what was recorded above, he felt that Soetu's appetite was too big!
Soetu asked Kang Qiao to keep a large number of women in his farm in the suburbs, and then send these women to officials appointed by the court and students with potential to participate in the imperial examinations.
Generally, students taking the imperial examinations would be excited when they saw that they were favored by high-ranking officials of the court, and would not think too much about it.
This exactly achieved Soetu's goal.
Suo Etu didn't dare to hide at all. The teacup hit his head with a dull thud and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. He kowtowed to Kangxi and said in a sorrowful voice, "Your Majesty, I acknowledge the enclosure of land, but I haven't seen the account books, so I don't acknowledge them."
"Even if Your Majesty strikes me to death, I will never pin this unfounded accusation on myself. I beg Your Majesty to investigate!"
At this time, he absolutely cannot admit it. Once he admits it, there will be no way for him to turn things around.
Kang Qiao looked at Suo Etu in silence, lying on the ground without a tremor. After a long while, he said in a dull voice: "Your Majesty, in addition to the account book, I also have a witness."
"He is the person I arranged to be with Lord Suo. He has been with Lord Suo for a long time and knows Lord Suo well."
Kang Qiao understood that what she had done today had completely offended Soetu. If she didn't kill the man today, her son would be the one to suffer!
She could be cruel to others, but how could she bear to let her own son, the child she had raised since childhood, die?
Thinking of this, a fierce look flashed across his eyes.
Yinyu nestled in Yinzhi's arms, looking at the fierce expression on Kangqiao's face, and mentally said to System 679, "I didn't expect Kangqiao to actually bring the account book and bite Suo Etu here."
Upon hearing this, the 679 system's childish, mechanical voice spoke with pity, "Kang Qiao is actually quite pitiful. The things she's done are enough to have her killed many times over. Yet, when she was still a girl, Suo'etu forced her to marry a man of similar age as Suo'etu as his second wife."
"That person also had some bad habits. Later, she managed to gain power and became domineering."
"Later, when they had a son, they felt hopeful and started to collude with Soetu."
Having said this, he sighed and continued, "But my son has been spoiled."
Yinyu listened to System 679's words, looked at Kang Qiao kneeling on the ground, and said to him, "There must be something hateful about pitiful people."
He couldn't comment on what Kang Qiao did. She did it for her own survival and for her son, but she hurt too many people. Aren't those women she sent away innocent?
Thinking of this, he silently took a bite of the snack in his hand, and looked at the person in front of him in silence.
Kangxi, Yinzhen and others also heard this, and their expressions became somewhat complicated.
Suo Etu was trembling all over when he heard Kang Qiao's words. He suddenly turned around and looked at the person kneeling beside him. He asked in a trembling voice: "Kang Qiao, what good will it do you if I die? Why do you have to kill me?!"
He had given Kang Qiao so much over the years, so why was she still not satisfied? Why did she have to attack him at this critical moment?
As he thought about it, his breathing became a little rapid and his eyes became red and bloodshot.
Hearing this, Kang Qiao raised her head. She looked calmly at the ferocious Suo Etu and sneered, "If you hadn't fallen in love with me at first sight and married me to that old man Jiaduo, I could have married my childhood sweetheart, had a child with him, and lived in love with him until old age."
"But your appearance broke everything. First you killed him, and then you forced me to marry Jiaduo! Shouldn't I hate you?!"
As she spoke, the hatred in her eyes almost burst out. She took a few deep breaths to suppress all the feelings, then knelt on the ground respectfully, trying to calm herself down as much as possible.
The moment Soetu heard this, his whole body trembled. After a long while, he looked at Kang Qiao without saying anything.
Kangxi asked Suo Etu, "Suo Etu, do you have anything else to say?"
Suo Etu was silent for a while, then kowtowed to Kangxi and said, "I have nothing to say."
With so many people following him, where would he even begin to investigate? Besides, he didn't have the time to do so.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.
It was really one wrong step that led to all the wrong steps. If Kang Qiao hadn't come to him with injuries all over her body, how could he have been so soft-hearted?
When Kangxi heard this, he raised his hand and said to the people, "Suppress it and send it to the Ministry of Justice."
In an instant, two guards came in from outside the door, handcuffed Soetu's hands behind his back, one on the left and one on the right, and led him out.
Kangxi looked at the man walking towards the door and said to him, "Let him sit next to Mingzhu."
As soon as Kangxi said this, Yinyu couldn't help laughing in his heart. He laughed and said to the 679 system: "My father's bad taste is really amazing. These two people have been fighting for most of their lives, and now they are about to go to jail together."
Then he asked System 679, "Do you think they'll fight over something in the cell?"
When he said this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "It's really possible."
When System 679 heard Yinyu's words, its childish mechanical voice became cheerful. It said to Yinyu, "If they really fight, I will show the host a short video."
After saying that, he couldn't help laughing.
Those who could hear the conversation between the two people were all silent at this moment.
This one-man unification is really full of bad taste.
After Kangxi’s birthday banquet, the entire court fell silent, and in the blink of an eye it was May.
Kangxi led his troops to the expedition in person. The day before he left, he summoned several of his children to the Qianqing Palace to discuss matters.
Yinzhi went to the camp where they were confronting the Junggar in advance. The only people left in the palace who could attend the court were Yinreng, Yinzhi and Yinzhen.
Kangxi sat down in front of the couch, held a piece of dessert in his hand and placed it in Yinyu's. He turned to Yinreng and said, "We have made sufficient preparations for this Eastern Expedition. The three of you who will stay behind to supervise the country must keep your eyes open and not let anyone cheat you."
At this point, he glared at Yinzhi and snorted coldly, "Especially you, Yinzhi. If you dare to delay your work to buy books again, I will make you lead the troops to war!"
Upon hearing this, Yinyu said to System 679 in his mind, "My father is so cruel! If he really lets my third brother, who loves books, lead troops to war, wouldn't that be the end of him?"
System 679 listened to Yinyu's words and said to him, "You're right, but your third brother is really disappointing. He's been obsessed with ancient books lately, to the point of madness. Even the birthday gift he gave to your father was an ancient book. If he doesn't get scolded, who will?"
"Your second brother at least does something else, but your third brother just falls asleep with a book in his arms all day long."
"It's a good thing your father didn't beat him up."
Yinzhi listened to the words of the one-man-one-unification leader, lowered his head and looked at the ground, then nodded sullenly to Kangxi and said, "Yes, son, I will remember it."
Yinreng patted his shoulder and whispered to him, "Don't worry, Xiaosan, we have Xiaosi. He is so capable and will definitely be able to handle things well."
"When the time comes, we can just do some odd jobs if we have nothing to do."
When Yinzhi heard Yinreng's words, he immediately became energetic. Yinzhen had been busy every day recently and he didn't have to read those memorials.
Yinzhen happened to stay, so he could continue studying his ancient books?
As soon as he had this thought, his eyes were immediately filled with smiles, and his smile became much brighter when he looked at Yinzhen.
Yinzhen listened to what the two of them said in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Did they really think he wouldn't fight back?
Thinking of this, he stood up from his chair, took two steps forward, and suddenly knelt at Kangxi's feet. He said to him with reluctance, "Father, your Majesty, I am still young and know very little about the affairs of the court. With my second and third brothers in the court, nothing will go wrong."
At this point, he turned to Kangxi with red eyes and said: "My elder brother has been fighting outside for many years, so his mind is not that meticulous. Although my son is young, he is willing to accompany you to the battlefield. Please grant me your blessing!"
Wanting him to work in the palace? That’s wishful thinking!
When Kangxi heard this, he looked at Yinzhen's face full of reluctance and nodded at him, saying, "Okay."
After Kangxi said this, Yinreng and Yinzhi were a little dumbfounded. It was bad enough that Xiaosi did not play by the rules, but why did their royal father agree so readily?
