When the group arrived in Beijing, Emperor Kangxi and Consort Tong had already been staying at Changchun Garden for several days. Hesheli Apiren kept watch around Changchun Garden, making sure that Yinzhi and the others would come to see Emperor Kangxi and the others as soon as they returned.
The group returned to their respective residences first. Yinxiang and Yin followed Yin home. After changing their clothes, they prepared to go to Changchun Garden with Yin, his wife, and the children.
After washing up, Yin and Qingyan sat in the flower hall, waiting for Yin and his wife to come over together.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, when shall we set off?" Yinxiang was getting impatient.
Qingyan smiled and said that Fei Yanggu and his son parted ways with them after entering the city gate and went directly to the Xishan camp.
"Listen to your fourth brother!" Qingyan took a sip of the plum juice and found that the plum juice from the capital city was indeed better.
I haven't been back to the mansion for several months, but it's still in perfect order, and all the winter supplies have been bought.
"Little Darling, go prepare dinner. We'll go after we've eaten. There shouldn't be anyone watching the side gate of the Yuanmingyuan!" Yin had already sent someone to check. "Is the Yuanmingyuan always brightly lit?"
"Of course, after Father Emperor went there, I had the servants light all the palace lanterns. No one should notice!" Qingyan had made special arrangements.
Yin nodded. In that case, they should try to keep the appearance of not having returned.
In the evening, Yin and his family arrived. The carriage stopped in the courtyard with the second gate. Yin helped his wife and daughter out of the carriage and into the flower hall.
"Fourth brother, when I came over, I found a lot of strangers on the street." Yin and Yin used an ordinary carriage this time, which must be a test for those people.
"What?!" Yin was caught off guard. If someone was watching, this would be troublesome.
“Right now, I can’t be sure either.” Yin sat down. “Jiahui will be here soon; he’s observing.”
Jia Hui was a capable bodyguard of Yin, and since he was a relatively new face, sending him to investigate the identities of these people was the best option.
After everyone had dinner, they sat down and waited until it was almost time before making their move.
"Greetings to all my masters!" Jia Hui walked in from outside and quickly bowed to her masters.
At this moment, Doshihun and Hafengadu woke up and were in their mother's arms.
"Jiahui, how is the situation?!" Yin asked his servant.
“Your Majesty, you are not mistaken. Those people are idle members of the imperial clan who have been bought off by the Hesheli clan. They are all marginalized individuals,” Jia Hui quickly reported back.
These people were basically keeping an eye on the residences of Yin and others. If they returned early, they would need to report immediately.
During his last dinner before heading to the capital, Yin specifically instructed him to enter through the back door or side door.
"Master, the Tenth Prince and his wife have arrived," Su Peisheng reported from outside.
Yin and his tenth wife soon came in and, seeing that everyone was there, quickly greeted them with smiles.
"Fourth Brother, there are actually people watching my residence." Yin found it laughable; this was the first time anyone had been watching his residence since he left the palace to establish his own!
"Wait another half hour, we must get to Changchun Garden as soon as possible, something might have happened to Father Emperor." Yin glanced at the grandfather clock and also thought that Gao Dai would be leaving soon.
Qingyan and the others all expressed their willingness to follow Yin's arrangements. Among those present, Yin was the oldest.
After the group boarded the carriage, Qingyan held Hafeng'a in her arms, while the twins sat around the kang table and began playing chess with Yin.
"Don't be nervous. My brother said there might be a problem, not that it would happen immediately!" Yin noticed that Qingyan was a little nervous and quickly said to her.
"Fourth Brother, aren't you nervous?" Qingyan sneered.
If he hadn't been nervous, how could Yin have lost even to his two children?
"Alright, you and Yiken can play now." Yin rubbed his daughter's head and handed her the chess piece.
"We don't know the situation at Changchun Garden yet. My father-in-law and brothers-in-law have all gone to the Xishan Camp. Soon, they will take the soldiers from the Xishan Camp to the location of Changchun Garden." Yin was really unsure.
It is said that Suo Xiang could probably not mobilize too many people; the Xishan Camp and the Imperial Guard combined should be enough to handle it.
"Fourth Brother, can we really trust the soldiers in the Xishan camp? Ah Hun has been gone for almost a year!" From the military port to the Liangguang military port, Ah Hun and his men have been gone for a long time.
"Don't worry, these two places are also my elder brother's territory, and my two brothers-in-law have already arranged people for them!" Yin said.
Before leaving, the elder brother planted many spies in the camp. Although the newly appointed general was a member of the Hesheli clan, he has now been gradually sidelined.
"Fourth Brother, I think things are about to get chaotic in the capital!" Qingyan looked towards the street, where pedestrians were hurrying by. Before long, it would be the twelfth lunar month, and the Spring Festival would be getting closer and closer.
"What are you lamenting about?" Yin sneered. "Those people don't care about the time. The more important it is to initiate changes during holidays and festivals, the greater the effect and influence will be."
Yin analyzed the situation, and Qingyan listened silently. Yiken'e and Hutulifengshengzhalaf both put down their chess pieces and listened as Yin began his lesson.
"Now, Prime Minister Suo hasn't made his move yet, so he must not be prepared?" Qingyan found Suo'etu quite amusing. Usually, things are done in secret, but now it's become an open affair. "Why is Father Emperor taking direct action?"
"It must be for the sake of the Crown Prince!" Yin said with emotion.
In Kangxi's heart, the Crown Prince was absolutely unique, and if the Crown Prince could get away directly now, Kangxi would definitely be happy.
"I'm afraid that once Uncle Crown Prince gets involved, he won't be able to recover!" Yiken'e muttered from the side.
Qingyan glanced at her son but did not scold him for talking nonsense.
"Yiken'e, what do you think we should do?" Yin enjoyed discussing these things with Yiken'e, and felt very happy watching his son grow up little by little.
“Grandfather’s intentions shouldn’t be wasted. The Crown Prince’s second uncle should turn back, but we’ll have to wait until Prime Minister Suo makes his move.” Yiken’e had been in contact with Yin. “Grandfather said that the Crown Prince’s second uncle is the youngest and closest to him, so Fei, Prime Minister Suo should be persuaded.”
The carriage slowly entered the Yuanmingyuan Garden. Yin had said in advance that the entourage would go directly to Changchun Garden.
Upon hearing from Li Dequan that Yinzhi and the others had returned to the capital, Kangxi quickly sat down with Consort Tong in the large dining room to wait.
Yin and Yin led everyone to pay their respects to Emperor Kangxi and Consort Tong. Seeing that Emperor Kangxi and Consort Tong were alright, they were relieved.
