"Perhaps he said something to Keyu..." Yinzhen chuckled nonchalantly, "Don't worry too much. I always have a clear conscience for what I do. Even if Huang Ama hears something, he won't take it for granted.
How is he doing?"
When Jinxi heard Yinzhen's guess, her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized, yes, she almost forgot where Xiang Keyu came from. If the other party really revealed to the prince the historical fact that Yinzhen was the next emperor... How could it be?
no……
"No! We can't let her say that you are..." Jinxi stood up from the stool, frowned and walked around in circles, looking up at Yinzhen, "You said, let's
If we send someone to rescue her from Yuqing Palace, can we convince her to keep her mouth shut?"
"Don't worry, these are just speculations. Let's make a decision after meeting Huang Ama tomorrow. Think about it, even if you say something to Keyu, with Huang Ama's temperament, will you really believe these rumors?
?We know the historical facts, but how do people here know? Maybe they will take her words as crazy talk..." Yinzhen smiled and pulled her to sit next to him, peeled the nuts produced by Wuyi Mountain, and stuffed the meat with them.
He put it into her mouth and signaled her to stop thinking.
"That's what I say..." Jinxi glanced at him worriedly, and after chewing a few pine nuts, sighed: "I'm just afraid that she will reveal a few things that haven't happened yet. After Huang Ama verified them one by one,
I can’t guarantee that I don’t believe other things... Well, it would be great if Xiang Keyu’s brain was like mine... Even if he wanted to reveal a few big things, he couldn’t remember them at all..."
After Jinxi sighed sadly, Yinzhen laughed loudly: "How about you also find an opportunity to reveal to Huang Ama the truth about you coming from the future?"
"Are you crazy? If you dare, I wouldn't dare either!" Hearing this, Jin Xi rolled her eyes towards the sky and curled her lips and said, "I don't know how many points Xiang Keyu's history can get, but if I want my historical achievements to be better than those of the Qing Dynasty,
If you want to become a magician, forget it. In my opinion, the magician is pretty much the same..."
Yinzhen chuckled and took her in his arms. He placed a heavy kiss on her forehead and said, "Yes, whether it's a good fortune teller or a magic stick, in short, you are my Fujin. If Emperor Ama trusts us, we will stay in the capital."
I’m doing my job, and I’m going to help Huang Ama solve his problems. If we’re not allowed, we’ll take a ferry and go to sea. No matter what, I won’t wrong you..."
Yinzhen's gentle but firm assurance reassured Jinxi.
Yes, why should she be so worried... If just a few words from Xiang Keyu would make Kangxi lose his due trust in Yinzhen. Then, they would no longer choose to stay here, whether it be hiding in the mountains or forests,
Whether it's a ferry trip to the sea... With her and Yinzhen's English proficiency, I believe it won't be difficult to start a successful career in Europe today. Maybe it will be even more comfortable than in the Qing Dynasty.
If Kangxi was still treating them as usual, serious when he should be serious, and close when he should be close, then because he was Yinzhen's father in this life, they would stay in the capital until their later years, expand Yingxi Trading Company, and assist the court.
Serve the public affairs and fulfill the obligations owed to children...
I believe that Kangxi would not be so stupid. He would not believe his son, but would rather believe an outsider who had nothing to do with him, or an outsider who had intentions for his son...
……………………
Early the next morning, Jinxi followed Yinzhen to the Qianqing Palace to pay his respects to Kangxi. He brought with him several specialties from the south of the Yangtze River: West Lake Mingqian Longjing, Anxi Tieguanyin, Wuyi Dahongpao, Dongting Biluochun and other famous products from various places.
Special-grade famous teas, as well as famous pastries and snacks from all over the world, as well as Fujian's famous eight-treasure ink pad and root-carved paperweights... Although the value is not high, they are all of good quality.
As for the Queen Mother and the Fourth Palace Master, Jinxi has also ordered Grandma Xing and Xihe to prepare everything. In addition to tea and cakes, there are also top-quality pearl paste, pearl powder, wood carvings, bamboo arts and porcelain. They plan to wait there. After I came back from the Qianqing Palace to pay my respects, I went directly to the palace masters to pay my respects and give them gifts.
Late last night, Qi Ba sent someone to deliver the news, saying that the small team he led had achieved a complete victory against the three imperial guards who came to provoke the prince. Therefore, when the two of them were on their way to Qianqing Palace, Yinzhen couldn't stop thinking. He chuckled softly, and Jinxi asked him why he was laughing, but he just laughed and didn't answer. Finally, Jinxi could guess that the prince's soldiers were completely defeated yesterday afternoon.
Thinking about it again, ninety-nine percent of the time, he will meet the prince whom he has not seen for a long time at Huang Ama's place. When he thinks of the prince Yin Reng's face turning blue with anger and dare not speak, even Jin Xi can't help but snicker. What a shame. You guys think you are smart! But you don’t know that sometimes, cleverness can be mistaken for cleverness!
Sure enough, before entering the gate of Qianqing Palace, the couple saw two of the prince's followers in the octagonal pavilion a few meters away from Qianqing Palace. At this time, they were walking around in circles in the pavilion boredly, thinking loudly. Suddenly they saw Yinzhen and his wife couldn't help but knelt down in panic. They must have felt guilty. There is no guarantee that what happened yesterday was not caused by the instigation of these two people.
Yinzhen held Jinxi's hand with a calm expression, passed the two prince's retinue who looked strange and shrunk, and entered the gate of Qianqing Palace.
There were unclear sounds coming from the inner hall, and it seemed that Kangxi was scolding the prince. Li Dequan, the chief steward next to Kangxi, stood with his hands down, respectfully guarding the outer hall.
Seeing Yinzhen and Jinxi coming in, Li Dequan immediately beamed, "Oh my, I've been waiting for you two!!"
"What? Your Majesty is looking for us in an emergency?" Yinzhen pretended not to know, and sat down on the chair in the outer hall with a faint smile. He knew without guessing that Li Dequan's emotion must be related to the prince and the batch of arms. So he took advantage of Li Dequan's opportunity. Without paying attention, Chao Jinxi blinked, and the couple smiled knowingly.
"No!" Li Dequan ordered the young eunuch to bring two cups of fragrant tea and several plates of snacks and fruits, and then he sighed sincerely: "I'm not exaggerating. The emperor has been thinking about you two every day in the past few months. This day When it rains, the Emperor is worried about whether you have found a place to stay. When the sky clears, he is worried that you have not brought enough clothes to change. Even the servant's heart is restless with the Emperor's worry all day long. …”
When Yinzhen and Jinxi heard what Li Dequan said, they couldn't help but feel a little moved. Come to think of it, parents all over the world are wary of their children who are away from home...
"It makes Huang Ama worry. It also makes Li Shuda worry. When the Emperor is troubled, the hardest thing is for you to do." Jinxi said, waving to Jiangrui, and presented Li Dequan with two large boxes of exquisite packaging. As a souvenir, he added with a smile: "I heard Brother Si mention it earlier that Li Shuda likes to collect lacquer paintings. No, when I was in Jiangnan, I saw this kind of lacquer paintings and wood carvings produced in folk workshops, so I gave them to you. I picked out one of the twelve zodiac animals. Do you like it? There is also a box of twenty-four cakes, a specialty of Hangzhou, with one flavor for each. You can always make it during Suhuang Ama’s lunch break. A pot of fragrant tea, chew a few pieces to try, it should be a good pastime."
"I would like to thank Fourth Brother for your four blessings! You are still thinking about my preferences even though you are thousands of miles away. I am so touched that I don't know what to do..." Seeing this, Li Dequan lifted up his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes.
As a popular eunuch around Kangxi, he naturally received a lot of gifts. However, most of the gifts given to him were silver nuggets, jade pendants and other real gold and silver items, such as Yinzhen and Jinxi. Keeping his hobbies in mind, there were very few people who would bring him some local specialties when they returned from an outing. In my memory, except for Kangxi who would occasionally give him some other gadgets, there were only this pair of handsome and handsome people in front of him. A young couple.
Just as he was talking, Kangxi's rich voice came from the inner hall, "But Yinzhen is here? Come in quickly!" There was a touch of joy in his words.
Jin Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief. From this point of view, Kangxi didn't have any intention of blaming Yinzhen. Thinking about it, either the prince didn't dare to make irresponsible remarks without telling Kangxi, or Xiang Keyu didn't reveal anything to the prince...
Yinzhen didn't think much, nodded to Li Dequan, and walked towards the inner hall with Jinxi.
As soon as they entered the inner hall of Qianqing Palace, they saw Prince Yinreng standing aside with his head drooped. He thought he had been reprimanded by Kangxi.
After the couple kowtowed to Kangxi, they bowed to the prince again and said, "Second brother, I haven't seen you for three months, but are you okay?"
"Thanks to my fourth brother, everything will be fine!" Although Yinreng was unwilling to give in, he understood the truth at this time. After all, he was the prince of the East Palace and the future prince whom Kangxi worked hard to cultivate, so he naturally had a measure of advance and retreat.
Jinxi followed Yinzhen and also wished the prince a happy life and said: "My sister-in-law sends my regards to the prince's second brother!" Then she stood quietly behind Yinzhen, as if she had changed into a different person.
"You're a good boy. I gave you a three-month vacation, but you really played for me for three months before coming back?! Don't you know you could come back earlier to help me? Who swore that before? I need to ask those who owe me The royal courtiers who collect money from the treasury are collecting debts... It's better now. Not only are I traveling with my newlywed Fu Jin, I don't even know how to send you a letter... If I didn't believe in your ability, I would still say You and your wife have been robbed by bandits somewhere." Kangxi pretended to be angry and scolded Yinzhen with a smile, but he didn't really mean to blame him.
"Huang Ama, you have wronged me. Everywhere I went, I asked the local post station to bring a safe letter to my family in the capital. But for some reason, I just returned to the palace yesterday. The letters sent by my son through the inn arrived very late, but the servants also asked him if they wanted to present those letters from home to the emperor. I thought that the speed of this inn was too slow. Fortunately, the letters mentioned in the letters are just daily expressions of greetings. If there is really something big, wouldn't it delay the post for a long time?!" Yinzhen complained as if he was aggrieved. Hearing this made Jinxi feel good in his heart. Cheating. (To be continued)
