Yinxiang was imprisoned, and one of Yinzhen's arms and a screen were removed. For many days, the prince stayed behind closed doors, wandering in the atrium, in a daze. The family members knew that he had a eccentric personality, and no one dared to flatter him to please him.
Looking for bad luck. Yinzhen wanted to have a deep talk with Wenjue and Xingyin several times, but he always stopped talking. The two monks were also strange. They knew that the master of the family was worried and did not come to persuade him. However, Wu Sidao had left Beijing since June, and brought him with him.
He went on a trip with his two little Xi slaves. Yinzhen sent people several times to inquire about his information, but they all returned disappointed. On this day, he received the report of dealing with Yinren's party members. After reading it carefully for a long time, Yinzhen became more and more confused.
Key points: If you say that Yinxiang is a *, at least there should be a mention in the newspaper. If you say that he is not a *, he should be treated like himself and should not be dealt with at all. If the prince is recommended, there should be a decree this time. If he is not recommended,
, should we just leave the reserve empty? Yinzhen sat cross-legged on the warm kang of Wanfu Hall, feeling at a loss. Thinking that he had passed the age, his career had been frustrated, and he had been operating dismally for many years without any achievements. The prince had no share,
He couldn't help but feel lonely and desolate, just as desolate and cold as the winter scenery with dead branches in the sky outside. While he was pondering, seeing Hongli coming in from the outside, Yinzhen said angrily: "You have grown up day by day, and you are not as good as when you were a child.
!A gentleman should stick to the central government and ignore foreign affairs. Why are you running around all day long? Do you want to imitate your incompetent brother?"
"Why did father forget?" Hongli smiled and said to Qian'er, "Yesterday, my son had already reported that he and Grandma Xie went to the Dazhong Temple. She went to fulfill her wish, and my son went to post the inscription on the stele. He was supposed to be back at noon, but it happened to be
I met Wu Shibo again and made an appointment to have dinner together..."
Yinzhen's eyes lit up, he moved his legs down, and asked: "Wu Shibo? Which Wu Shibo?" Hongli said with a smile: "How many Wu Shibos do your sons have? Mr. Wu Sidao!" Yinzhen took off his shoes on the kang.
"Is he at the Great Bell Temple? Ask them to prepare a sedan for me!"
"My son has invited him back." Hongli had never seen his father look so anxious before. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare. He only frowned and replied, "He has inconvenient legs and feet, so he still rides in his son's sedan chair!"
Yinzhen stared at Hongli appreciatively and nodded, but said nothing. He put on his green felt hat and came out to greet him. He had already seen Wu Sidao coming in from the second door with a crutch. The crutch with an iron tip was polishing the blue bricks in the courtyard.
There was a clicking sound, and the click click reached the bottom of the steps. Fang stopped, staring at Yinzhen with his deep eyes for a long time, and said: "Long time no see, Fourth Master!"
"Oh!" Yinzhen felt hot in his heart. He took a step forward and then stopped reservedly. He turned to call Hongli, "Why are you still standing there in a daze? Please give me some help!"
Hongli helped Wu Sidao sit down on the easy chair. After traveling in Beijing for several months, Wu Sidao's skin was tanned and his energy was much better. When he was sitting on the chair and looking at Yinzhen, Fang asked: "How is the fourth master's health?"
Zhen said with a smile: "You are disabled, so walking such a long way is really worrying. I should ask you this." Wu Sidao said with a smile: "Now the world is peaceful, the wind does not whistle, and the rain does not break.
, and there are no thieves, so what are you afraid of? As for a few people who cheat money and twist rice seedlings, what's the point?"
"So you still met a bandit!" Yinzhen asked in surprise, "Didn't Xingyin's apprentice Huang An follow you? You didn't suffer a loss, did you?" Wu Sidao smiled and said: "People like me, only
He can compete with others with wits, but not with strength. Thanks to Huang An's help, not only did he not suffer any loss, but he also brought back several people to Fourth Master. Although they were all robbers, they still had some skills. Fourth Master, you are an extraordinary person.
, when this is an emergency, you should be extremely prepared. Although Xingyin has skills, he is a monk after all, and I can't follow you day and night!" Yinzhen sighed: "Sir, you have experience and intelligence, and you can still be optimistic no matter how hard you endure it.
Respectable! Didn’t know I was in Beijing, like an ant on a hot pot! And like walking alone in an endless black alley at night, surrounded by silence like an ancient temple, and there are jackals, tigers and wolves lurking in the dark grinding their teeth and sucking blood! -
- Think about it, how disgusting I am!" Yinzhen said, his voice choked up, and he stopped.
It was rare for him to be so emotional. Wu Sidao knew that Yinzhen would not be like this unless he was extremely depressed. Seeing people coming and going outside the courtyard, he mused: "Fourth Master, it's too stuffy here and I can't get used to it. Why don't you come here?"
Let’s go to the garden!”
"Sure." Because the think tank came back so timely, Yinzhen was relieved of his depression for the day and looked in high spirits. He stood up and told Hongli: "Get a table and go in to wash the dust for Mr. Wu." He also asked someone to help Wu Sidao, and Wu Sidao
But he refused and said with a smile: "I need to move around. As long as I am happy, I will not be far from death."
So the two of them left Wanfu Hall and walked out of the Moon Cave to Fengwan Pavilion. When they came to a thick bamboo, Wu Sidao suddenly put his crutches on his crutches and said without looking back: "Fourth Master, you just said you were going to the dark alley.
, it sounds interesting to me - tell me, you have walked out of the alley, but it’s too dark, you can’t see anything, you thought you were in an alley. It’s too dark! Is that so?”
"What did you say?" Yinzhen was surprised.
"I said," Wu Sidao turned around, "to tell you the truth, it has been five days since I returned to Beijing! During these five days, I felt like I was trapped in the mist of Lushan Mountain. Everything was complicated and confusing, and I could never see through the emperor's mind.
! When the report came out today, I realized that the emperor has changed his ways! Let the deer go to the Central Plains and let the talented and agile people fight for it!" He sneered and said, "Who can see through the bright moon after splitting the side door?
Among the wonderful meanings of the Three Vehicles, this lotus seat belongs to whom!"
Yinzhen took a step back, his face was extremely pale, and he said in surprise: "You... you haven't come to see me these days, are you studying the current situation?" Wu Sidao nodded silently, took two steps, "Yes, four
I am feeling depressed, and I am also confused. If you come to see the fourth master, it will only help you to feel sad, so what is the practical use? I have to come up with contingency plans for you!" Yinzhen was stunned for a long time, and sighed: "Yinreng
He lost his position, Brother Xiang was detained, and Lao Ba was the proud one, what can I do?"
"The emperor has decided not to appoint a crown prince!" Wu Sidao's eyes flickered, "The first time he deposed the crown prince, he issued an order to recommend him the next day. This time, he was only arrested and imprisoned. The matter of the crown prince was kept secret, which proves that the emperor has other plans.
Go ahead!" Yinzhen's eyes flashed, then dimmed, and said: "I have thought of this, maybe Sheng Gong is dictatorial and no longer consults his ministers and workers?" "Absolutely not." Wu Sidao shook his head and said: "The Crown Prince is the one who established the country.
This is a huge government matter, and the former Emperor Minghun even knew how to consult his ministers and ministers! Not to mention what kind of person Kangxi is!" He sighed as he said, "It's a pity that I don't have enough students to get a glimpse of the sage's demeanor!"
Yinzhen smiled and said: "To be honest, if I were today, I wouldn't do this. Twenty-four elder brothers, it is obvious that Yinzhen is the best, so how safe is it to give him the crown prince position?" Wu Sidao nodded and said: "The crux is
Right here! Fourth Master is telling the truth, but he must not tell it to anyone again. I have thought about this matter hundreds of times! The Eighth Master is a man, a person, a person, and a talent. He is always imitating me. Who knows that he just imitated it?
Long live the form, without its spirit! Nowadays, greed is rampant in the world, the party is like a cocoon, the endowments are uneven, the lawsuits are unfair, and there are many hidden worries in the great governance. There must be someone who can kill and rectify to take over the throne. The emperor must not keep it.
Master. The Eighth Master is a conservative material, so Long Live doesn't like him!" Yinzhen's heart skipped a beat after hearing this, and he smiled after a long time: "You are so smart, it's scary! If outsiders hear this,
If it spreads, I'm afraid your head will not be saved!"
"Amitabha Buddha is so kind!" A voice chanting the Buddha's name came from outside the bamboo forest, startling Wu Sidao and Yinzhen who were about to enter Hong Kong. "Poor monk Wenjue, Xingyin has been listening here for a long time!" The two people walked out of the bamboo forest.
, Wu Sidao raised his hands and bowed his head and said: "You two bald donkeys! Could it be that you smell the aroma of wine at the table and are salivating and can't bear it anymore?"
I feel like I've been threading my needle, and I've been working non-stop for five days. Isn't it time for me to have a table of noodles?"
Only then did Yin realize that these three people had been secretly communicating with each other for several days to do things for him. He was surprised and relieved at the same time. He just smiled reservedly, waved his hand and said, "Please, let's talk at the table if you have anything to say." So the four of them joined together.
Walk into Fengwan Pavilion, sit down and have a drink.
"Fourth Master," Wu Sidao cherished his fortune and cultivated his health, never overeating, and only took a few bites of light food, and asked, "Have you received Dai Duo's letter?"
Yinzhen was sipping tea when he raised his hand in the air and stopped. Dai Duo did send a secret letter in late September, saying that he met a strange Taoist priest in Wuyi Mountain who could know the past and the future. Dai Duo secretly said that Yinzhen's birth date was the horoscope.
According to the divination, the Taoist priest said it was "Ten Thousand Characters", why did Wu Sidao suddenly ask? Wu Sidao smiled and said: "This is not a presumption. I should have said these things clearly long ago, because I was afraid that you would be shocked; if I didn't say it, I was afraid that you would lose it."
Confidence. Monks from far away like to chant sutras, but this is where the monks near you find it difficult. Do you remember what Guaimei said over wine that year?" Yinzhen Yindaiduo said something miraculous about how to meet strangers and how to calculate magical numbers.
, when it was revealed that it was still Wu Sidao's plan, he couldn't help but lose interest, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Testing words and divination, a gentleman who knows his destiny will not do it. This is just a joke. Don't mention what you said back then. In the current situation, it is a blessing that the emperor does not punish me.
I would never dare to think about it beyond reason."
"Really?" Wu Sidao smiled mysteriously, "I feel that what Guai Mei said back then has come true, and it's time to bring up the old story again!"
Monk Xingyin gnawed on a piece of bone, waved his greasy hand and said, "Wealth is so powerful, I'm afraid you can't push it away, Fourth Master!" Wenjue smiled, leaned forward and said, "Fourth Master, listen to me, your horoscope
They are Wuwu, Guihai, Dingyou, and Jiazi - living in the place of eternal life, sitting on the earth in four places, watching the stars around, Yuanwu at the head, guarding the screen of red birds, and the gods of green dragon and white tiger. When compared to "Yi", it is
"The wind and the mountain are gradually coming", Yuan Tiangang said, "The phoenix came to the west Qishan Mountain, and its long cry reached nine days. King Wen established the foundation here and earned the country for 800 years"! If you put it in terms of numbers, it is 2412——
Combined into nine, separated into two, extremely noble and unspeakable, these all come from the will of God, and a monk cannot make them up!"
"God's will is one thing, and human affairs are another." Wu Sidao pondered, "If you don't fulfill the destiny of human affairs, you will still be fishing for the moon in the end. Liu Xiu's brother Liu is also a very noble man, but because he didn't fulfill the human affairs, he was tortured.
On the same day, Gengshi held a banquet in Nanyang to kill Liu. The banquet was very dangerous, but he still failed to take action. Liu thought he was destined by fate and took no precautions. He finally died at the hands of Zhuzi. The hero sighed with regret for thousands of years!
Fourth Master! If you don’t learn from this, it will be difficult for you to become a rich man!"
Yinzhen's blood was boiling after hearing this, and he had nothing to do. Why didn't he think of this? He also checked the book of star fate and nature several times, but only a few of them could see it thoroughly and explain it in mystery and detail. He was about to speak.
, Xingyin threw the bones in his hand, waved his hands and said: "Stop! Someone is eavesdropping!" After saying that, he stood up and disappeared in the bamboo forest in a flash.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and Yinzhen suddenly changed his face when he was shocked: He is different from the Yinxiang Mansion here. The Yinxiang Mansion was opened not long ago, and there were many changes, and there were all kinds of people. He was very strict in selecting people, and he never suffered
He would never hire someone who was too kind, let alone work inside the Second Gate. Now someone actually dared to sneak into the garden and eavesdrop on secrets! Yinzhen didn't say anything, his eyebrows raised one after another, and a cold look suddenly shot out of his eyes.
Murderous intent. When the time passed, Xingyin came back. While sitting down, he said with a smile: "It's Gao Fu'er who brought the wine. It's a false alarm!"
"You're right to be careful. It's easy to be with a gentleman, but it's difficult to be with a villain." Wen Jue said, "The difficulty is that villains are greedy for profit and easy to be used by others. He may not repay a thousand favors to these people; one thing
If you don't do it well, you will feel resentful. The fourth master regards the world as his home, so he has to spend more money to maintain the servants in front of him. Things are not secret, and the relationship is very complicated!" Wu Sidao chuckled: "
It makes sense, but it is also biased. It is difficult to deal with villains, but it is actually even harder to deal with gentlemen! Is it difficult to deal with today's God-given talents?"
Xingyin couldn't help but clapped her hands and said with a smile: "If you want to talk about the wonderful way, your ears will be deafened and your ears will be shaken! The monk is willing to hear the details!"
"It's easy to live with a mediocre father and son, but it's hard to live with a wise father and son; it's easy to live with a single and widowed brother, but it's hard to live with many brothers and sisters - which one?" Wu Sidao retorted, leaned over to prepare the wine, and said, "In front of Long Live, you don't show off your talents,
Which eye does the emperor use to look at you? You are sharp and you are arousing suspicion! There are many brothers, one is good at playing the flute, and the other is good at playing the harp. Each one is good at his own specialty. If the corner is high or low, someone will pinch it if it comes out.
The best people are suppressed. Do you think it is difficult to get along with each other? Who can afford to offend?" Wenjue said: "Not only the father and son, but also the cats and dogs in front of the emperor, try to offend him! This summer, the palace will
There are rumors saying, 'The second elder brother is just a cheat now and wants to be the emperor. How can these elder brothers get it?' Do you think he is burdened by these words?"
Yinzhen tapped his fingers lightly on the table and remained silent. Several people talked eloquently. No one said they were helping him with ideas, but the meaning of the question was tacitly understood. What should he do?
What should I do? While I was thinking deeply, I heard Wu Sidao laugh and say: "In my opinion, it is of course important to get along well with each other. But it seems unnecessary to deliberately please those villains! The fourth master's true character is upright, upright, honest and filial. This
The original appearance is the foundation of one's life! If a person changes his normal behavior, he will die without getting sick, and the second elder brother is an example. He thought that Long Live looked at his cowardice. After the restoration, he strengthened himself, and the great cold and heat were neither fish nor fowl. What was the result? Who is responsible?
The throne depends on who gets the Sacred Heart. The emperor will not give up power until death. Even if you let the deer go to the Central Plains, it depends on how you drive him away. Some people yell, some chase and intercept, and some have red eyes.
Look, it’s all wrong!”
"That's what people said," Xingyin said with a smile. Looking outside, Gao Fu'er asked the waiter to bring the wine in, then turned back and went out, and then said, "I understand if you don't tell me, but the more you tell me, the more confused I become!"
"Thankfully you are still a disciple of Buddhism." Wu Sidao said coldly, "If you don't understand Zen language, don't you know that if you don't follow it, you should follow it, and if you follow it, you should not follow it!"
Yinzhen was enlightened by this sentence. Kangxi said several times: "There is only one master of the country, and the power lies, so why should he have a dummy?" But he did not establish a prince and let his sons fight for it. What does it mean? It is too elusive.
"If you chase, you don't chase, if you don't chase, you chase" is really the Midas touch! Thinking of Kangxi's intention of choosing a heir without resorting to killing each other with flesh and blood, sitting back and watching the success or failure, even the iron-hearted Yinzhen felt scared and beat him for no reason.
Shut up! Yinzhen thought about it and already had an idea, so he smiled and said: "I understand what you are saying. Being an emperor is a big hardship in the world, and I am afraid to avoid it! If I have this intention, there is no need to follow Yin
You are wading into muddy waters! Can’t Prince Yong establish his own business? So although they are all words of gold and stone, they are of no use to me. You can trust me, and I can trust you too. When we sit down today, we will talk about nothing and we will not mention it again in the future.
,Okay?"
He obviously heard it in his heart, but he still pretended to clarify it, but it was the proper meaning of the question. Wu Sidao couldn't help but secretly admire that the master was smart and smart, but he just drank tea and said nothing. Wen Jue also understood that Xingyin was a martial artist after all.
The monk only said it was true and said with a smile: "Fourth Master has no such intention, just think that we are just chatting." Yinzhen stood up with a smile and said: "You guys are having a bar, I have to go see Zhu Tianbao and Chen Jiayou. These two people
I was the one who recommended him to Yin Reng in the first place, but now he just throws his hands away and doesn't ask about anything when something happens. It's so unloyal." After that, he resigned.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the garden, they saw Hongli and Gao Fuer coming over from a distance. When they saw Yinzhen, they all stood respectfully. Hongli said: "Just now, the old Hu from the inner court came and said that Zhu Tianbao and Chen Jiayou committed suicide and will be executed today. My son said that you are not here.
..." "I'm about to go to Shipai Tower to see them. Hongli will go with me." Yinzhen said, and then said to Gao Fuler: "The servants at home should be more careful and everyone should keep their duties. I
As I said, the garden here also has the sticky pole where Xingyin lives. It is a place where I can enlighten myself and meditate to purify my mind and ascetic desires. No one is allowed to enter without permission except the people I designate - I never give orders for the second time when I speak. Today
I'll make an exception for you. If someone doesn't abide by the family law again, don't regret it!" Before Gao Fuer could reply, Yinzhen had already left.
Yinzhen and his son came out to change their clothes, got on their horses, and trotted through the fine snow. In half a meal, they arrived at the residence of Zhu Tianbao and Chen Jiayou in Shipailou. Seeing that someone from the Criminal Punishment Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs had been replaced on the door, Yinzhen
Zhen's heart sank, he stepped down on the dismounting stone, walked to the door, and asked with a wooden face: "Do you recognize me?" Two ministers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs were warming themselves over the fire and drinking tea. When they saw it was Yinzhen, they all got up in panic.
He saluted and said with a smile: "It's the fourth master! Do you want to see Mr. Zhu and Mr. Chen? Please, please!" Yinzhen ignored them and went in with Hongli.
This is a courtyard with only one entrance. Neither Zhu nor Chen has their families, and their followers have probably been sent away long ago. There are only two tall sour pomegranates in this large courtyard. The leaves have been shed, and the trees are covered with red agate-like berries.
There was no sound, except for the occasional sound of chess pieces being placed on the board. Yinzhen moved in gently, and sure enough he saw Zhu Tianbao and Chen Jiayou playing chess attentively. Yinzhen did not disturb them, and motioned to Hongli to stand there.
At the door, I walked slowly behind Chen Jiayou to watch the battle.
There are only a hundred and ten pieces scattered on the board, but it is Zhu Tianbao's advantage. Only the northwest corner of black has a very important "World Tribulation". Whether or not the official pieces are taken away has nothing to do with the overall situation. But there is only one chain on his own side.
Tribulation, the calamity materials are inexhaustible. Chen Jiayou was so nervous that the tip of his nose was sweating, and he gritted his teeth after thinking hard. For a long time, Zhu Tianbao smiled and said: "Brother Chen, here I have another serial calamity, this
I'm afraid the game of chess will last forever!" When Chen Jiayou took a closer look, he saw that Zhu Tianbao was robbing and causing robberies, and it had become an unstoppable situation. He couldn't help but sigh in despair: "After all, it was you who was the better at chess - ah, the fourth master is here.
!”
"It's me who's here." Seeing that these two people were about to die and didn't know it yet, Yinzhen was playing chess, chatting and laughing. He let out a deep sigh in his heart, but smiled on his face: "You are so peaceful!" Zhu Tianbao and Chen Jiayou
Without saluting, he just gave up his hand and asked Yinzhen to sit down. Zhu Tianbao said: "Fourth Master, you came just in time. I have something to say, but I'm afraid it won't reach your ears!" Yinzhen said hurriedly: "
You are in trouble now, so feel free to say whatever you have to say, and I will never refuse if I can do it."
Zhu Tianbao looked up to heaven and sighed: "It's a pity that I, Zhu Tianbao, have a lot of articles, but I don't know how to adapt to the current situation. As a result, I am in today's difficulty, and I have let down the kindness of the fourth master's recommendation! - If one day the fourth master succeeds, I can at least take care of him.
Your confused second elder brother..." After saying that, he burst into tears. Chen Jiayou also said: "Although second elder brother has made mistakes, you have had a relationship between king and minister after all. Fourth master, the world is only between you and eighth master.
, But if you get what you want in one day, don’t forget the love of the second elder brother spooning water..." As he said it, he was choked with sobs and couldn't speak idioms.
"You..." Yinzhen originally thought that they were going to support his family, but unexpectedly they all plead for Yinreng in unison. He couldn't help being shocked and stuttered, "...how can I bear this? But I think, no matter who does it,
Jun, is it too much to be afraid of the second elder brother?"
Zhu Tianbao stood up and said solemnly to Chen Jiayou: "Brother Chen, it's time to hit the road, don't wait for that dirty little guy to hurry you up!" Then he lifted a plate covered with yellow cloth on the table, took out two glasses of wine, and shook it
, golden light - handed Chen Jiayou a glass, Fang turned around and said: "It's a pity that we can't let the fourth master!" After that, the two clinked the glasses and drank each. In an instant, the two of them swayed and fell to the ground.
, turned over softly, and never moved again.
Both Yinzhen and Hongli were stunned. Their faces were as white as snow, as if they were in a nightmare, and they couldn't even utter a word. I don't know how long it took before Yinzhen burst out: "Hero! It's a pity that I can't
I should have known it earlier!" He nodded and went out in surprise, only to see Fifth Brother coming. He stared blankly at the scene in the room, and a piece of pardon edict floated to the ground in his hand. (To be continued)
