Looking at this rich memorial text, Ling Ruo seemed to see with his own eyes the scene of nine-year-old Yinzhen holding Yunxiang who was waiting for food, dealing with the palace servants who neglected Yunxiang, and personally beating the wet nurse; and she also seemed to see Yinzhen. There is a scene where Zhen teaches Yunxiang arithmetic step by step, and the two brothers are inseparable whenever they meet with their retinue outside the Great Wall. Even when Kangxi went on a tour with only one of their retinues, the two brothers would exchange poems and letters.
The family affection between Yinzhen and Yunxiang has become so strong that it cannot be strengthened. Now that Yunxiang has passed away, one can imagine the pain in Yinzhen's heart.
After writing the memorial text, Yinzhen did not stop writing. Instead, he laid out the paper and wrote down the posthumous title "Xian" given to Yunxiang. In addition to his favor and praise, he was also given the privilege of enjoying the Imperial Ancestral Temple after his death, and ancestral temples were built in Fengtian, Zhili, Jiangnan, and Zhejiang to repay his favor.
After writing this, Yinzhen stopped the pen in his hand and looked at the edict carefully. Although he had given Yunxiang many extraordinary honors and favors, he always felt that there was still something missing, which was not enough to reflect Yunxiang's role for him. Everything you do.
Yunxiang...Aisin Gioro? Yunxiang...he knows what it is.
Yinzhen wrote again, this time with only one sentence, but Ling Ruo's expression showed obvious fluctuations for the first time, and he said in surprise: "The emperor wants to restore the name of Prince Yi."
Yinzhen nodded and said: "Yes, because I ascended the throne, he was forced to change his name to Yunxiang. Now that he is gone, what I can really do for him is to restore his original name."
Naturally, Ling Ruo would not object, but he was a little worried, "The ancestors set a rule that ministers must avoid the emperor's name. If the emperor does this, I am worried that the courtiers will criticize him."
Yinzhen said coldly: "If they want to criticize, just go ahead and criticize. This is what Yinxiang deserves, and I must allow him."
The posthumous edict and the memorial text were sent to Prince Yi's Mansion. Mo Yu burst into tears of gratitude. The courtiers who happened to be in Prince Yi's Mansion were shocked when they heard this edict. They actually restored Yinxiang's real name in this way, becoming the only one. It's really unreasonable for people who don't need to avoid the taboo name of the emperor.
However, they had to discuss it privately. No one dared to talk about it in front of Yinzhen. Everyone knew that Yinzhen and Yinxiang had a deep relationship. To talk about it at this time was simply asking for death.
After Yinxiang's funeral, his son inherited his title. Normally, titles are inherited step by step. However, Yinxiang is the iron-hatted king of Yinzhen. No matter how many generations he inherits, he will still hold the title of prince. He is not a collaborator. Major crimes such as treason will never change.
Just after Yinxiang's funeral, Yinzhen, who originally thought he was fine, suddenly fell ill. His condition was quite serious. After the imperial doctor looked at it, he said that it was caused by the accumulated depression in the heart that has not been released. Medicine and stone are not very effective for such a disease. , the most important thing is that you can figure it out and no longer feel depressed in your heart. As long as you feel comfortable, your illness will be cured soon.
In the past few days when Yinzhen was seriously ill, Ling Ruo had been waiting in front of the bed with nothing on her clothes. When she was very sleepy, she lay down beside the bed and slept for a while.
On this day, Yinzhen woke up and saw Ling Ruo sleeping soundly next to her. The autumn sun shone on her face from the window, revealing a strange paleness. Looking carefully, she had lost weight in just a few days. After walking around for a while, there was almost no flesh on his face. Thinking that she had been staying close to him recently, Yinzhen felt warm in his heart.
At this moment, Ling Ruo's eyelashes trembled slightly and she slowly opened her eyes. Seeing that Yinzhen had woken up, she quickly stroked her face and said, "Your Majesty is awake. I will help you get some water to purify your face."
Yinzhen pulled her and said, "No need, just let the palace servants do these little things. It's not like we don't have people waiting on us, so why bother yourself so much."
Ling Ruoxiao smiled and said: "It's okay, it's not like I've never done anything before. As long as the emperor's illness can be cured quickly, everything I do will be worth it. I have nothing to ask for now, I just want the emperor's health."
"
Yinzhen looked at her and said softly: "It's my fault that I make you worry about me."
Ling Ruo slowly suppressed the smile on her face and said in a solemn voice: "Your Majesty, the Thirteenth Master is no longer here. No matter how sad you are, you can't bring him back to life. Instead, you will make him feel uneasy under the Nine Springs. So I beg you,
Let's put down the burden and stop worrying about it, okay?"
Yinzhen looked at her silently and said softly: "Yinxiang was brought up by me. When he was still in his infancy, he ate and slept with me. Over the years, no matter what trouble I encountered, he was the first to help me."
He stood in front of me for a while and never flinched. To me, he was a part of my life. Now that he is dead, it feels like someone has cut out a piece of flesh. It hurts so much that I can't sleep."
"I understand, but the dead are gone, but the living will continue to live. The Thirteenth Master is part of the emperor's life, but the emperor is the whole of my life. If there is anything wrong with the emperor, how can I survive?
Gotta go down."
When saying this, the tears that had been held back for a long time slowly flowed down her cheeks, which made Yinzhen feel heartbroken. He raised his hand to stroke away the tears on her cheeks and said: "Don't say such stupid things. No matter what I do, you
Everyone must live well, promise me!"
"No!" This time, Ling Ruo didn't listen to him and shook her head: "If the emperor leaves, I will definitely follow him and never leave the emperor."
Yinzhen gently stroked her long hair and said: "Fool, isn't it better to live well? No matter how painful or deep the injury is, there will be a day when it will be healed. Look at Mo Yu, isn't he able to survive it too?"
What’s more, you still have Hongli and Jiarou, how can you leave them behind?"
Ling Ruo held his cold hand and said: "They are also the emperor's children. The last person who should abandon them is the emperor. If the emperor really misses his concubines and Hongli and the others, please ask the emperor to get better quickly.
Don't stay depressed like this anymore."
Facing her worried gaze, Yinzhen smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry too much. It's just a minor illness. I will get better soon. Besides, I promised that I would accompany you out of the palace for a walk.
How could it not count?"
At this time, Xiao Wu came in and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen is here." Since Yinzhen fell ill, although Nala did not serve him day and night like Ling Ruo, he came to visit every day, which was considered thoughtful.
"Let her come in." After hearing Yinzhen's words, Xiao Wu hurriedly stepped back. After a while, Nala, wearing a moon-white uniform with dark embroidered begonia flags, walked in. After bowing, she said with concern: "Your Majesty, today
Do you feel better?"
"Not bad." Yinzhen responded casually. He noticed Nala's flag uniform, took a look at it and said, "Why has the queen been dressed so plainly these past few days? She doesn't look like a queen."
Nala lowered his head and looked around him, and sighed: "It's not that I deliberately dressed plainly, but during this period, Prince Yi passed away, and the emperor became depressed and ill. How could I have the heart to wear those brightly colored clothes?"
.My concubine’s biggest wish now is that the emperor can get well as soon as possible.”
Her words moved Yinzhen quite a bit, and he nodded and said, "The Queen is interested."
