Eighth elder brother couldn't help but was startled, and then smiled and nodded and said, "You have become a female Zhuge."
Hua Ying Jiao groaned: "Small eighth elder brothers come to make fun of me. You should go to do your official duties. I have an appointment with my sisters who were in the palace before, and I am going to walk around in the imperial garden."
Eighth brother smiled and said: "Go, I don't dare to delay your meeting sisters."
Hua Ying smiled, and only brought a close-knit court lady out of Yongshou Palace to the imperial garden. There were no previous sisters waiting for her in the garden. She found an excuse to send away the palace maid who was following her, and secretly sent the news to the eldest brother, the thirteenth elder brother.
When the thirteenth elder brother heard that Kangxi actually asked the eighth elder brother to accompany the ancestor worship, he was shocked for a while, "sacrifice to the ancestor? This ancestor sacrifice is worth it? Didn't you tell the whole world that the old prince is the next prince?"
Hua Ying shook her head, secretly looked at the face of the thirteenth elder brother, and said: "I don't know about that. I heard that only a small number of guards and micro-services are arranged to accompany, and I don't intend to disturb the people around."
The thirteenth elder brother was taken aback when he heard the words, "Really?"
Hua Ying replied: "Yes."
The thirteenth elder brother gradually turned cold, and said in a low voice: "That's all right, maybe bad things will turn into good things."
Hua Ying smiled secretly in her heart, but she didn't look at her face, she only said: "I have to go back soon, it will arouse the suspicion of Ba Age."
The thirteenth elder brother nodded, and after Huaying walked for a while, he got up and went to the Yongwang Mansion, and told the fourth prince about the eighth prince who was going to accompany Kangxi to worship the ancestors.
Si elder brother remained silent after listening, and only gently tapped on the desktop with his fingers. The thirteenth elder brother looked anxious, and couldn't help but urge him: "Fourth brother, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You should make a decision quickly."
Si elder brother said lightly: "The time is not yet ripe."
The thirteenth eldest brother said anxiously: "Is there any time that is immature? If you wait for Huang Ama to return to the ancestors, everything will be a foregone conclusion."
Brother Si looked up at him and asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Elder Brother Thirteen thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and replied: "I took some people to stop Huang Ama and Lao Ba, and then let Nian Gengyao take the Imperial Guard to surround the palace."
Si elder brother shook his head and said softly: "It's not that simple."
Seeing that he had been hesitating, the thirteenth brother gritted his teeth and said: "I know, you are afraid that outsiders will say you usurp the throne. The big deal is when you say that I did it, and you will kill me to block their mouths."
Si elder brother's face sank, and he asked him, "Is your fourth elder brother such a person?"
Brother Thirteen knew that he had misunderstood what he meant, but at this moment he didn't have the intention to explain, he only looked at him with red eyes and said: "Fourth brother, except for my mother in this world, only you are the best to me, I hope I can do something for my fourth brother, even if I die."
Si elder brother was moved by hearing this, and looked at him, but still shook his head and said: "Old Thirteen, Old Thirteen, you are fine with everything, but you are too anxious and can't eat hot tofu, you will suffer sooner or later. This Let’s stop here. Think about it calmly, I have something to deal with, so I won’t accompany you."
After speaking, he turned and left the study.
The thirteenth elder brother looked angry and anxious, could not help but slammed a punch on the table, just in time for the golden branch to come in with a plate of snacks, he was shocked when he saw the furious thirteenth elder brother , Looked back at Si elder brother who strode away, turned around and asked thirteen: "What's the matter? Your brothers quarreled again?"
Brother Thirteen said: "Sister-in-law, you must help me this time."
Jin Zhiqi said: "What is so serious?"
The thirteenth elder brother pulled the golden branch onto the chair and stood in front of her and said: "You also know that mynah is not compatible with the fourth brother. Huang Ama has decided to take mynah to worship the ancestor. This is undoubtedly an announcement to the world. The next prince. The others do not matter. I am afraid that mynah will deal with the 4th elder brother when he becomes the emperor. At that time, let alone the Yongwang Mansion family, even the uncle will be implicated."
Jin Zhi was shocked when he heard it, and asked, "Then what can I do?"
The thirteenth elder brother stared at her and replied in a deep voice: "Stealing the fourth brother's seal to me, I will let Nian Gengyao lead soldiers to surround the palace. At that time, the bargaining chip will be in our hands, so naturally we will have the final say. ."
Jin Zhi was stunned, and after a moment of silence, he asked again, "Is it a big deal?"
Elder Brother Thirteen paused, and said fiercely: "It's better than just sitting and waiting."
Jin Zhi's head became hot, and he focused on his head and said: "Okay, you deploy secretly first, and wait for me to steal your 4th brother's seal and give it to you."
Three days later, Kangxi met the assassin when he took the eighth prince out of the palace. Fortunately, the eighth prince was prepared beforehand and asked them to pretend to be Kangxi and sit in the sedan chair, attracting the attention of the assassin. When the assassin saw an ambush, he hurriedly retreated, but was still caught by the guards and pressed them to the ground.
Kangxi rode a horse to rush up from behind, and when he saw that someone was assassinating in the capital, he couldn't help being furious. He pointed to the captured assassins, and said angrily: "Tell these fanatics well and look at the murderer behind the scenes. Who the hell is it?"
Eighth prince nodded and ordered the assassin to be taken back to the clan man's prison first, and he accompanied Kangxi to the Taimiao to worship the ancestors. When he returned to the palace from Taimiao, Huaying had waited anxiously for a long time. Seeing him entering the door hurriedly greeted him, and asked anxiously: "I heard that you met an assassin, are you okay?"
Seeing her in such anxiousness, Eighth Brother smiled gently, and replied: "Thanks to the way you think, let's find two substitutes. I and Huang Ama are fine."
Huaying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good. Has the murderer found out?"
Eighth Brother shook his head, "I caught a few lunatics and refused to confess no matter how they beat them. I really don't know what to do!"
Hua Ying groaned for a moment, and said, "There will always be a way to get these people to confess."
Eighth brother was surprised, "Oh?"
Hua Ying smiled, and pushed him to the side hall, and said: "You have been working hard all the way. I have ordered someone to prepare the bath water. Let's take a bath in it first. As for this matter, it is on my body."
Ba Age said strangely: "What can you do?"
Huaying deliberately sold Guanzi and said: "You don't have to worry about this. I promise that within three days I can help you find the murderer behind the scenes!"
The more she said this, the more curious Eighth Brother couldn't help, and asked with a smile: "Tell me, how do you tell those people to speak?"
Hua Ying showed a trace of cunning on her face, and replied: "I asked a few people to pretend to be killers and sneak into the clan man’s prison, pretending to kill the prisoners, and then deliberately ask the guards to save one of them. The man saw that he had survived. After the big punishment, he refused to say the master behind the scenes, but in the end he would be killed by his own people, and he would definitely be greatly stimulated. Then I was tempting him with life and death, and he would definitely confess in full!"
Eighth-age was stunned, looking at her in a daze as if he didn't know the person in front of him.
Seeing him with such an expression, Hua Ying felt a little guilty, for fear that Ba Age was thinking that she was a vicious and vicious person, so she hurriedly remedied: "But this is inevitably a bit vicious, but these people are all who assassinated you and Huang Ama. The murderer should be cut, right?"
Eighth prince came back to his senses, concealed the different color in his eyes, nodded and said: "Your method is very good, I will arrange it now."
After speaking, he didn't care about taking a bath, and hurried away.
That night, there were assassins in the clan man’s large prison that sneaked into the prisoners who wanted to kill them. Thanks to the bravery of the guards, they killed those assassins on the spot, but there were already several prisoners who had been murdered, and only one survived. Just as Hua Ying expected, the prisoner saw his companions were killed by his own people, and no longer had the courage to regard death as life, and immediately recruited the behind-the-scenes envoy who was not someone else. It was Kangxi's own son, Si Age Yinzhen!
Long Kodo had eyeliners buried in the clan's mansion. The news had not been reported to Kangxi, but it had already reached his ears first. He was shocked when he heard it, and hurried to the Yongwang Mansion to deliver a letter to the fourth elder brother at night. Unexpectedly, the fourth elder brother had a calm expression after hearing this, and said indifferently: "The clear one is clear. I didn't do this and I can't rely on me."
Longkodo was taken aback, and couldn't help asking: "Surely you didn't do it?"
Brother Si shook his head and replied, "No."
Longcordo couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "That's good! So it seems that someone is about to pour dirty water on you, who would this be? Old bachelor?"
Si elder brother bowed his head and said nothing. The Jinzhi who had been standing silently knelt in front of him suddenly, and said in a panic: "Siye, I am sorry for you. I stole your seal and gave it to Thirteen. Brother..."
Si elder brother suddenly raised his head and fixedly looked at Jin Zhi, his dark and deep eyes were as deep as the sea, revealing endless chill.
Jin Zhi was terrified in his heart, stepped forward and hugged his legs, and couldn't help crying, "I didn't expect it to be so serious..."
He took a deep breath, the bitter meaning in his eyes gradually faded, and said indifferently: "This is the end of the matter, it's no use blaming anyone. What should come is always coming. Don't cry. Go back to the room and rest first. Right." He said, and looked up at Longcodor, "Uncle also hurry back, don't intervene in this matter, no matter how Huang Ama handles me, don't stand up."
Longcord looked at Brother Si, then at Jinzhi who was crying on his knees, sighed, turned and left.
Brother Si stretched out his hand and gently stroked the top of Jinzhi’s head, and said in a low voice: "Since I am using my seal, don’t pull out the 13th brother again. You must not steal my seal from the 13th brother. Tell anyone again!"
Jin Zhi was already crying so hard, he could only nod his head when he heard the words.
The thirteenth elder brother also got the news. Since the failed assassination outside the palace, he guessed that Kangxi would not give up and he would definitely find his head one day, but he did not expect that this day would come so fast, let alone. Let his most respected fourth brother take it for him. He sat for a long time in a daze, and when it was light outside, he left the palace and went to the private house.
