Lin Yutong looked at him in disbelief, "Are you sure?"
"*Buli Shi." Hong Yun further explained: "In the early years, Hong Xi had contact with the Hesheli family. He knew this person named Zhi Lan. I'm afraid that when he gets older, there will still be some personal secrets. Love. Of course, it is more likely that Hongxi took advantage of Zhilan's goodwill and admiration for him."
This makes sense. A woman caught in a river can do all kinds of crazy things.
This matter is no longer an ordinary family matter.
She glanced at Hesheli and said, "Ask her to copy scriptures in the Buddhist hall in your Niang's palace first. Don't ask her to come out until this matter is settled. Talk to your Niang, she knows the seriousness. Tell her to take good care of Hershey."
Hong Yun nodded. It seemed like he was punishing his own Fujin by doing this, so as not to alert the snake. But in fact, it was to protect his own Fujin. The people around her had to thoroughly check her. The only way to release her was to It really hurt her.
"Okay, let's do that." Lin Yutong stood up, "I'm going back to the garden. If you have anything to do, you can discuss it with your elder brother."
Hong Yun helped Lin Yutong get up, "You don't want to wait for me anymore? My son will take you back."
Lin Yutong waved his hand, "No need. Just be busy with your work. Come visit me and you, Amacheng, often when you have time."
As he said that, he looked at Hong Yun's neck again, "Does it still hurt?"
Lin Yutong snorted, he didn't dare to say it hurt, just give it a try!
"Let's talk to your mother later. He is very distressed." Lin Yutong said while tying the belt of his cloak.
Hong Yun lowered his head, "My son thought Huang Ama was angry."
"Nonsense!" Lin Yutong nodded his forehead, "Since you were a child, who has ever touched your finger?"
Hong Yun thought about it and realized that it was true. Amma had never hit her. Every time his wife said she would hit him, the feather duster would fall next to him every time and never hit him. It was just to scare him. In those few years When I was studying in the study room, I was protected by my elder brother, and no one did anything to me. Didn’t I never get beaten?
It was the first time I was beaten up by Fujin.
He glanced at Hesheli's side and saw her looking at him with a pale face and tears in her eyes. His anger also subsided a little.
Lin Yutong saw the expressions of these two people and did not treat them.
Forget it! This family is not an unreasonable place. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. It doesn't look like the two have a grudge. What else are you getting involved in?
Out of sight is pure.
Let's go back to the garden.
"When the children grow up, they all have their own lives to live." Lin Yutong sighed to the fourth master.
If you are too dictating, you will become annoying.
The Fourth Master patted Lin Yutong on the back, "The young couple always come here to keep us company. From now on, we will live together. They are all heartless, so you should worry less about them in the future."
Lin Yutong nodded, "When they get older, if they want us to help take care of their grandson, we will take care of them. If they don't want us to take care of their grandchildren, we won't have to rush."
The Fourth Master paused his hand and thought to himself, this person is really thinking too far. But he still nodded in agreement, "I will listen to you." She has been wronged in this life. Just for the three children born to Li. Heart, I have to be grateful to her for the rest of my life. Otherwise, brothers will quarrel, cause trouble to Xiao Qiang, and people with ulterior motives will get involved. What kind of chaos will it become? With my temper, if this really happens, I will be pissed off. Dead. "If there is a next life, I will never let you suffer any injustice."
Lin Yutong snuggled into Fourth Master's arms, "Well! It would be great if there was a next life." She couldn't bear to leave Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master stretched out his hand, tidied her disheveled hair from her face to the back of her head, and kissed her on the forehead. "Only when I get older can I feel that my wife is getting better."
Lin Yutong was not happy, "Look, I'm not old yet?" As he said that, he took his hand and put it on his face, "You touch it, it's tender."
Fourth Master laughed. The two of them argued for half the night before they stopped.
A few days later, Honghui and Hongyun entered the garden together.
"...Ever since Hesheli pointed it out to Hong Yun, every time Hong Xi left the palace, he would definitely have a tryst with this Zhilan. Therefore, it can be concluded that this Zhilan is indeed Hong Xi's person. As for what happened this time, it is probably not Hong's fault. Xi's plan was really a mistake. Hesheli heard the grandmother next to her saying that her second brother was not being rude to Zhilan, so she told her younger brother and sister. She didn't expect that her younger brother and sister would have such a bad temper, so they started to make trouble. .And Li Eniang is surrounded by people from the Niu Colu family. The two of them were a bit dirty in the harem. Therefore, it was the Niu Colu family that set a stumbling block for Li Eniang." Honghui explained to Fourth Master.
Hong Yun said: "Amma, this Hong Xi can't be so indulgent anymore. My son is even more afraid that there are people behind this Hong Xi who will give him advice..."
"Who do you want to say?" Fourth Master asked.
Hong Yun glanced at Hong Hui and said: "Hong Xi doesn't have many chances to leave the palace. When he can't leave the palace, who will organize things outside the palace for him? Moreover, the person he is targeting is not his eldest brother, but his son. Me. Then this person must be doing something that he thinks is good for his elder brother. He wants to win over his son and claim credit from his elder brother. Then this person probably has some relationship with the Fucha family. But at the same time, he can gain Hongxi's trust. .So, this person can’t be anyone else except..." He dipped his hand in tea and wrote 'twelve'."
The expressions of Fourth Master and Hong Hui did not change, and they obviously knew what was going on. Hong Yun was a little discouraged, as these two people were an insurmountable mountain.
Fourth Master asked Honghui, "What do you think?"
"There is no evidence now. Let's suppress him first. My son will play with him slowly. Don't be in a hurry." Honghui answered a little casually.
Fourth Master nodded, "Go and see your mother-in-law. I've been nagging you these past two days."
Honghui and Hongyun quickly stood up and retreated.
The fourth master pondered for a long time before he picked up his pen, wrote a letter and handed it to Su Peisheng, "Go to Zhengjiazhuang and hand this letter to Prince Li in person. Keep a low profile and don't attract attention."
To Prince Li, he did not issue a decree, or rather an oral instruction. Instead, he wrote a letter solemnly.
When Prince Li received the letter, he was stunned for a moment and felt a little emotional in his heart. The fourth child paid great attention to the details and did not make him feel aggrieved or uncomfortable at all.
Su Peisheng delivered the letter and hurriedly resigned.
Long live the Lord did not ask himself to come back with a reply.
The next day, the imperial doctor in Zhengjiazhuang first announced that Prince Li was ill. Within two days, Prince Li went to the hospital to ask for a favor from the emperor, and wanted to ask Hongxi to return to Zhengjiazhuang to take care of his illness. However, Hongpu was not mentioned.
In other words, to keep Hongpu in the palace, and to ask Hongxi to go to Zhengjiazhuang at this time, is to ask for imprisonment.
The fourth master was right. But he turned around and named Hongyu and Hongpu as Beizi. This was a reassurance for the two brothers. He had no intention of embarrassing the younger generation.
Lin Yutong sighed inwardly, the prince was really a rare person who understood this.
She lowered her head and looked at Hong Zhan, who could only spit milk bubbles, and thought to herself: The days have to move forward slowly.
……………………………………………………
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the black silk hair has been dipped in snow.
Lin Yutong looked at the three old men sitting under the melon shed from a distance and couldn't help but sigh.
The braids on the back of Fourth Master's head have turned gray. He held the teapot, poured tea and handed it over. "Brother, second brother, drink tea."
The other two old men were not the once-prominent Prince Zhi and Prince Li, who had long since disappeared from everyone's sight.
Prince Zhi was a little weak and could not speak louder, but he still did not forget to express his admiration to the fourth master, "Your second brother and I have been locked up in the mansion for half our lives. I didn't expect that in the end, you would be locked up in the garden for half your life."
.”
That's right, after the fourth master abdicated, he realized that these days are really no different from being imprisoned. The status of the Supreme Emperor is too special, and every move attracts people's attention. If you meet someone and say a few words, they will be over-interpreted. Guess
Do you think the old man can't stand the current saint again? Are you looking down on the saint? Do you want to beat Long Live the Lord?
As a result, the Old Summer Palace became a place of self-imposed confinement for Fourth Master. Except for sneaking out occasionally to meet Prince Zhi and Prince Li, he really could not go anywhere.
I want to find someone to gossip with, but the other brothers are all busy with errands. I have been messing with others a lot, and it is inevitable that the subject will come up. When it comes to court affairs, I can't continue. No matter what I say, it is the imperial edict of the Supreme Emperor.
.Isn’t this interfering with Honghui’s work?
After going around in a circle, he suddenly discovered that the only two brothers who could accompany him to relieve his boredom were his two brothers.
People are getting old, and the fourth master has retired. The brothers are talking more freely.
When talking about sad parts, the three old men often wiped away tears, which made Lin Yutong's teeth sore.
"My two brothers have suffered for half their lives for the sake of this country. Why can't I bear it?" Fourth Master chuckled.
This is really the truth.
"What's the difference between the one who won and the one who lost?" Prince Li leaned back on the couch, "No matter how prominent you were back then, the ending is still the same. Who is better than who?"
It’s true!
All the knots in my heart that I couldn't let go of in the past were let go when I saw the fourth child's current state.
After seeing off his two brothers, Fourth Master went to the melon field in person to pick a melon and asked Su Peisheng to hold it.
"Master, I'm getting old too. I can't hold you anymore." Su Peisheng said, asking the little eunuch following behind him to hold him without permission, and smiled at the Fourth Master.
"Good-for-nothing old slave!" Fourth Master lightly kicked Su Peisheng before walking back with a groan.
Lin Yutong looked at him from a distance, as if he had gone back to the first time he saw him. At that time, he was young, cold, tall and thin. And he was really handsome!
"Looking at me smiling like this, what are you thinking about?" Fourth Master took Lin Yutong's hand and walked back.
"I am old and handsome." Lin Yutong held the fourth master's arm and said softly.
The Fourth Master held her hand tightly, "Then hold on tight, Master. In the next life, I will still be your handsome old man..." (End of Qing Dynasty) (. )
