Chapter 39: The 39th Day of Wanting to Die
What Yinzhen was more puzzled about was why Xiaoliu's coffin had to go to find Xiaotwelve?
What does this have to do with Xiao Twelve? And when did Xiao Six start dating Xiao Twelve?
Yinzhen felt very strange.
He was not the only one who was strange, the others were Yinzhen, Yinzhi and Yinqi as well.
Yinzhen had a better relationship with Thirteenth. He was not close to Fourteenth before. When he heard that Sixth could let Twelve help him carry his coffin, he was shocked for a moment.
How come so many people have a good relationship with Xiaoliu? Even his biological brother doesn’t know about their situation.
Given their relationship, couldn't he help Xiaoliu carry the coffin?
No, why choose a coffin? Xiaoliu must be healthy and live a long life.
I hope Xiaoliu can send me off by then. The funeral will definitely be very lively with Xiaoliu around.
For a moment, Yinzhen's thoughts wandered off and he went straight to his own funeral.
Also, what exactly is this foreigner Xiaoliu was talking about who cheated people out of money?
Isn’t it fake ginseng to defraud money?
What did he do to defraud all the Qing Dynasty's money?
No, Xiaoliu was talking about compensation...
The power of the Qing Dynasty is definitely far greater than that of the foreigners.
And there are still capable people in the Qing Dynasty.
Even if you bully foreigners, you won't have to pay any money.
For a while, the confusion in people's hearts not only did not get answered, but it increased instead.
Xiaoliu seems to be very wary of foreigners.
Kangxi also felt a sense of urgency.
"Xiao Liu, just focus on your work in the Qing Palace. I am waiting for your good news."
Kangxi said soothingly.
The ministers in the court should have noticed Xiaoliu's abnormality, but so what?
He, the Ama, is still here.
But Xiaoliu couldn't leave the palace during this period.
He is so weak that he would fall down if the wind blew.
Yesterday, Xiaoliu was allowed to leave the palace simply because he was there.
But Kangxi knew that Xiaoliu was a restless person, so he found something for him to do.
If those people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs dare to lay a hand on Xiaoliu, all their clans will be killed.
Yin Zhuo nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best."
[After this is done, can I ask to leave the palace and build my own residence? There are only two months left, I can't stay in the Qing Palace forever, I have to leave something behind.]
For example, your own mansion.
It can also be considered as leaving some traces of myself for future generations, so as not to completely disappear in history.
Kangxi felt heartbroken when he heard Xiaoliu's voice. Why did Xiaoliu start to die again?
In his opinion, Xiaoliu would definitely live to be a hundred years old.
Kangxi sighed, raised his hand and patted Yin Zhuo on the shoulder. Yin Zhuo started coughing, and Kangxi was so scared that he quickly let go.
Yinzhen said worriedly: "Father, why don't you let me go? Xiaoliu still needs to take care of his health."
Yinzhen originally wanted to say no, but when he received the death stare from his father, he quickly changed his words.
Who knew that Yin Zhuoxian was dissatisfied: "No."
[This is a great opportunity for me to become famous, I can’t miss it.]
Otherwise, how could he leave the palace and build a mansion?
Yinzhen lowered his head with some reluctance. He really didn't dare to tell Xiaoliu that he had the opportunity to leave the palace and build his own house this morning, but was suppressed by the Emperor.
Don't blame them, Xiaoliu. After all, the Emperor has the final say in the Qing Dynasty.
But if Xiaoliu wants to go out of the palace to play, she can come to the Fourth Prince's mansion.
The little dress I made last time looked pretty cute when Momofuku put it on.
Yinzhen played with Baifu for a long time when he went back yesterday. Not to mention his fierce and fierce face, Baifu now looks much cuter and lovable.
When Yinzhen heard Xiaoliu say that, his lips trembled twice and he didn't dare to look at the emperor.
Lest you let it slip.
Why is Xiaoliu so anxious? His elder brother hasn't been conferred a title yet.
Your Majesty, please do not change your mind. They all remember Xiaoliu's contributions and no one will take them away from him.
"It's okay, Xiaoliu. When you're done, you can leave the palace and go find your elder brother, who will take you to meet your lovely nieces."
The more Yinzhen looked at his concubine, the cuter she seemed to him.
But the thought that they might have to comfort each other in the future makes me feel upset.
He hasn't done enough as a father.
He used to think about himself, but now he has learned to think about his children.
He needs to do more, stand higher, and have more say, so that his daughter will not be bullied.
Maybe Hongyu can be like Hongxi.
In Xiaoliu's words, Hongxi is very promising.
Of course his Hongyu has to keep up.
Yinzhen gritted his teeth and said something unpleasant. He wished that Galdan would break the agreement right now. He rushed over and killed Galdan.
So as to avoid coming here all the time to bother people.
When Yin Zhuo heard what his elder brother said, his eyes lit up: "Okay, okay."
Kangxi's face turned dark. What's wrong with this boss?
How could he be so tactless? He wanted to keep Xiaoliu in the palace, but this boss was trying hard to tempt Xiaoliu to leave the palace. What was his intention?
Kangxi looked cold and said to Yin Zhuo without looking at Yinzhen, "Don't listen to your elder brother. If you want to see the little princess, let the elder brother bring people into the palace. Anyway, your mother Hui'e has time."
The corners of Yinzhen's mouth twitched. It was good enough that his mother didn't urge him to give birth to a little prince. How could he have the time to take care of the little princesses?
He Fu Jin was so annoyed that he didn't want to enter the palace anymore.
Yinzhen didn't dare to say it.
He also hoped that E'niang could be nicer to Fujin and his daughters, but Yinzhen had never done so before...
He frowned, thinking that he had spent the past twenty years fighting with the second brother and had not even taken care of his family.
There is no need to talk about his mother. He only returned to the palace when he was old enough to remember. Before that, he grew up outside the palace. Therefore, he was not close to his mother and was annoyed by her controlling him. He was not obedient at all.
I am still like this when I grow up.
Yinzhen reflected on himself and realized that he was not a filial person.
Sometimes I still blame Kangxi in my heart.
But he only thought about this in his heart and certainly didn't dare to say it out loud.
When Yinzhen heard what the Emperor said, he knew he had said something he shouldn't have said, so he said quickly, "The Emperor is right. I will bring the little princesses to the palace to play with you when the time comes."
Yin Zhuo's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, I'll take the little princesses and Tana Ujina to fly kites."
It was agreed before, but it will be delayed for two days.
Several little girls were flying kites, so he could only fly the children.
After all, he couldn't run, so he could only fly the kite while lying down.
Let the little girls have fun if they are energetic.
Yinzhen immediately thought this was a good idea.
"Okay, bring them here when the time comes."
Yinzhen felt a little sad because he had never thought about taking the little princesses out to play in all these years.
Kangxi was also moved, but he had a lot of things to do and could not afford to indulge in pleasure.
"How old are you? How old is Xiaoliu? Have you finished the things you have on hand?" Kangxi looked at Yinzhen.
The boss is becoming more and more out of tune.
Yinzhen's face was bitter: "That's what I said."
"snort."
Yinzhen no longer wanted to argue with Xiaoliu and walked out of Yu's study in shame.
Yinzhen had already started reviewing memorials, while Yinzhi and Yinqi were still looking up at Kangxi and Xiaoliu.
They found it quite interesting to listen to Xiaoliu and Huang Ama talking to their eldest brother.
Kangxi felt unhappy, and looking at the two people's silly faces, he angrily asked: "Is there a word on my face?"
The two of them quickly came back to their senses and lowered their heads to deal with the documents in their hands.
Yin Zhuo was speechless.
[The old man ate firecrackers again? Why did it explode again? It turns out that he has reached menopause. 】
After hearing Xiaoliu's thoughts, the three of them became much quieter in flipping through the papers, and the whole kitchen became a little colder.
Yin Zhuo sneezed.
Kangxi's brows slowly wrinkled up, and he wanted to say something, but Yin Zhuo wiped his mouth casually first, then waved his sleeves and said, "Your Majesty, I will leave first."
[I have big things to do. I can’t waste my precious time on an old man.]
Yinzhen and the other two moved even more gently.
Kangxi was so angry that he pointed at his departing back and was speechless for a long time.
Finally, he said to Yinzhi and the others, "Xiaoliu is an unfilial son."
Yinzhi, Yinzhen, Yinqi: ...
It's another day of envying Xiaoliu.
Unlike them, they are still trapped here by the Emperor and forced to work illegally.
Kangxi stood in front of the imperial court with his hands behind his back, his eyes fixed on the capital, and no one knew what he was thinking.
His Qing Palace is so messy, what about other places?
Kangxi sighed quietly, then turned his gaze to the three people who were doing their best to review the memorials.
My son is still not enough.
There are too few people who can do the job.
But Yinyou had a leg disability, the eighth brother was too young, not to mention the ninth and tenth brothers.
Moreover, Kangxi was somewhat jealous of the Eighth Prince.
In Xiaoliu's words, he seemed to be quite powerful.
However, the power of the Eighth Prince's in-laws is not strong, but what is certain is that the Eighth Prince is definitely a scheming person.
Yin Zhuo didn't care what was happening in Yu's study. After leaving the Qianqing Palace, he walked leisurely towards Yu's kitchen.
The eunuch quickly followed: "Master, just tell me what you want to eat, and I will run errands."
Yin Zhuo paused, then asked curiously, "Do you need to be paid to run errands for the dining room?"
The young eunuch was stunned by the question: "No, I have never given it to you."
Yin Zhuo looked at his innocent eyes and thought so too.
This young eunuch didn't seem to be of high rank before, so it would be better to go back and ask Eunuch Wang about this matter.
"Then go ahead."
The young eunuch was so happy to hear that he finally had something to do.
Yin Zhuo returned to the courtyard of the prince's residence with his hands behind his back. He had to make a plan.
The first thing is to check the accounts.
This account book is definitely real, but they must have another account book behind the scenes for purchasing things.
That ledger is the key.
After all, the price of an egg in the public account of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was three taels of silver per egg, but the actual account book must have stated three cents per egg, or even less.
After all, the number of eggs consumed in the Qing Palace in a day is not a small number.
There are so many people here, and the consumption is huge, so they must have their own separate source of purchases.
Yin Zhuo was writing and drawing when he suddenly remembered something.
No, he seemed to have forgotten to tell Emperor Ama about the milk tea.
But it doesn’t matter, it has been placed on the emperor’s desk, Liang Jiugong should be able to tell him.
Yin Zhuo ignored it and continued with his plan.
When Kangxi finished reading the imperial chart and looked at the drinks on the table, he smelled a sweet smell.
He could smell this smell after he left court, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time. Now he frowned after seeing it.
Kangxi looked a little annoyed: "Didn't you forbid the concubines from coming to deliver the tonic?"
The sweetness is so cloying, I wonder who put so much sugar in it.
There were also some black things in there, and there were quite a lot of them.
Seeing Kangxi getting angry, Liang Jiugong knelt down reluctantly and said, "Your Majesty, this is specially prepared by the Sixth Prince for you gentlemen."
But the Sixth Prince seemed to have forgotten about this.
Sure enough, after hearing the Sixth Prince's voice, Kangxi's voice changed.
"Oh? It's Xiaoliu. Sure enough, he still feels sorry for me, his father, in his heart. Hahahaha."
Yinzhi and Yinqi were both speechless. Your Majesty, your expression changes so quickly.
Is this how Xiaoliu is treated?
It is indeed extraordinary.
Yinzhen was also a little curious. How should I describe the taste? He quite liked it.
Xiaoliu seemed to know that he liked sweet food.
Kangxi kept half for himself and stingily gave the remaining half to three laborers to taste.
"This is all because Xiaoliu is filial to me. When will you learn to be as considerate as Xiaoliu?"
Kangxi shook his head and blew on the warm milk tea. As soon as it took a sip, the taste of milk rushed to his heart, followed by the taste of Biluochun.
Kangxi's face turned green: "How much Biluochun did Xiaoliu put in this?"
He's a spendthrift!
Definitely the Hoho tea and milk tea.
But even though he said this, Kangxi still finished the drink reluctantly. After drinking it, his stomach felt warm.
Later, he recruited a few more ministers and didn't even feel tired of arguing with them.
Yes, although Xiaoliu is not very organized in his work, he always gets things done.
