Xiao Shunzi closely followed Li De's body and replied: "It is said that the prince has been studying hard these days, and he specially wrote an article for the emperor to listen to, and the emperor told him to recite it. As a result, Only halfway through the memorization, the emperor became angry, and fined the prince to go back and copy "Records of the Historian"."
Li Dequan heard the doubt in his heart and asked, "What article did the prince do?"
Xiao Shunzi thought about it distressedly, and replied: "My son didn't remember either. I said that the way of governing the country is that the people are the most important and the emperor is the light. The emperor was very happy when he heard it, but the prince behind me remembered what woman When the villain is difficult to raise, the emperor is on fire."
Li Dequan was also confused, guessing that it might be that the prince was ignorant and incompetent, and he didn't know what misconceptions were involved that made Kangxi angry. When he arrived at the main hall, Kangxi had already left the court, but he did not return to the warm pavilion. He turned around and went to the imperial garden. Li Dequan has been serving Kangxi for a long time, knowing that he must be very upset, so he went back to the Imperial Garden, and he became more careful in serving.
Kangxi stood in the imperial garden for a while, and suddenly said, "Although this prince is loyal, he is far from knowledgeable. Dequan, why don't you say that there is no one who can be both civil and military, capable of being a great responsibility among my sons? ?"
Li Dequan was shocked. He didn't think Kangxi would ask him about this. He cautiously replied: "The slaves have lived in the palace for a long time, and they don't understand the nature of the elder brothers. They can't share the worries for the emperor. The slaves deserve to die."
Kangxi didn't even think about asking Li Dequan to answer. After thinking about it, he said, "In fact, Lao Ba is quite like me, but his temperament is too unruly. By the way, is everything okay with him in the clan mansion?"
Li Dequan hurriedly replied carefully: "The slave doesn't know, but Ba Age is the prince, I believe the Clan Mansion will not treat him badly."
Kangxi stood there, and suddenly became interested to take a look at his son, then turned around and walked towards the clan man's house, and instructed Li Dequan: "Go, go and see him."
Kangxi was in a bad mood before thinking about seeing Ba Age, but he did not expect to see even greater anger from this look. Eight princes have been imprisoned in the clan’s mansion for many days. Kangxi thought he would be able to grind his temperament, making him a little repentant. He never thought of the clan’s mansion, but saw that the eighth prince was in the yard with him. The jailers sat around, shaking the dice and having fun.
Kangxi knew that Ba Age had a reputation for being approachable in the palace, but he never thought he would be so approachable!
Eight princes seemed to not know that Kangxi had arrived at the door, but instead of the gentle and elegant appearance of the past, he rolled up his sleeves, just like a gangster in the market, shaking the dice and shouting: "Buy, buy, hurry up Yes, I only have this purple dragon jade pendant on my body. See if any of you have this luck?"
A jailer smiled and said, "My Lord, you won't take any money, and if you lose, you will give us something back. Don't you think it's too bad?"
Eighth Brother smiled and said: "I don't suffer a loss. Didn't you say that you are going to help me if you lose? Doing things is the same as taking money. Hurry up, buy and buy."
"I buy a small one!"
"Buy small!"
Several jailers suppressed one after another. Eighth elder brother shook the dice skillfully, snapped it on the table, and shouted: "Buy to leave your hand, buy to leave your hand, open, four, five or six hours, awful. , I lost again, this purple dragon jade pendant belongs to you."
Everyone laughed. The winning jailer took the jade pendant and left. Eighth brother hurriedly shouted: "Hey, hey... I haven't finished the gambling yet, come back, come back..."
A jailer turned his head back with a smile and asked, "My Lord, you don't have anything on your body. What are you betting on?"
Eighth elder brother was also questioned for a while, and a jailer next to him roared: "Unless the eighth master agrees, in the future, if you become a prince one day, you will make us an official."
Eighth Brother smiled disapprovingly, and answered casually: "Okay, everyone is a high-ranking official, continue to bet, continue to bet..."
Kangxi outside the door couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted angrily: "Asshole!"
Everyone was stunned by the sudden roar, but when they turned around, they saw Kangxi with the chief eunuch Li Dequan standing outside the door. Everyone was startled and all lay down on the ground, begging: "The emperor forgive me, the emperor forgive me. crime!"
Eighth elder brother knelt down without any haste, and asked Kangxi without panic: "Huang Ama is auspicious."
Seeing him like this, Kangxi was even more angry with his lungs, pointing to Ba Age and said angrily: "You are brave, you deserve to die!" After that, he flung his sleeves away!
The emperor burst into thunderous anger, and everyone was so scared that they fell on the ground and trembled, but the eighth elder brother slowly raised his head and smiled softly, secretly saying that the play was too full. But don't let his life go too far.
Kangxi was full of anger when he returned to the Palace of the Qing Dynasty. Qingchuan took the tea. Kangxi took the tea cup and smashed it on the ground. He said angrily: "Why? Why are all of my sons like this? Not stupid. Unbearable, it’s just like being unrestrained? Did you see it, did you see it, this old bachelor, I just dared to covet him as a prince, and gambling with the official position, it’s damn it."
Li Dequan hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "The emperor calms down his anger, the emperor calms down his anger."
How can Kangxi’s anger be extinguished? The prince is loyal by nature, but too dull. Although the fourth child is capable, he is a little moody, the old nine is too gloomy, and the old ten is too big and big, but the eighth watched to act steadily. Although his temperament is a little unruly, he is gentle and generous to others. He had intended to let go of the old man, but he didn't expect to see such a scene, and it was really heartbroken.
Kangxi thought more and more angry, and said coldly: "If you are no more merciful, it will turn the sky upside down. The eighth elder brother Yinxuan will behave perversely, rebelliously and unfilially, and the clan's mansion will be investigated for his guilt, and he will be given death tomorrow."
Qingchuan was stunned for a moment, even Li Dequan was taken aback, and wanted to persuade: "The emperor, this..."
Kangxi said angrily: "Hurry up, do you want me to punish you?"
Li Dequan didn’t dare to take Kangxi’s anger at this moment and hurriedly retreated. When passing by Qingchuan, he saw her standing in a daze. He also gave her a hand and whispered: "The emperor is angry. Don't be pestle here, just walk around!"
Qingchuan was involuntarily pulled out by Li Dequan, and only recovered when he went outside the temple, and hurriedly asked him in a low voice, "Li Yanda, what's the matter? Why did the emperor suddenly make such a big fire? Really want to execute him. Eighth brother? That's the emperor's biological son!"
Li Dequan hurriedly waved his hand, motioned her to leave, and said anxiously: "Qingchuan ah Qingchuan, you are also a smart person on weekdays, how can this be so confused! Is this something we can mix? If one is not good, just drop it. The guilt of the head will be dealt with by the masters of the royal affairs. As long as we slaves are obedient!"
Qingchuan had no choice but to walk to his residence. When I arrived outside the courtyard, I saw a person with the appearance of a guard wandering at the entrance of the courtyard. When she came back, he greeted her and asked, "But Qingchuan girl?"
Qingchuan did not know this person, nodded, and asked: "I am, are you looking for me?"
The man smiled and said, "I'm a errand in the clan mansion. Eight princes are gambling in the clan mansion. The one who wins can take something from him, and the one who loses must help you. To do one thing, I lost, so I came to fulfill my promise. The aunt in charge of the Qing Palace is my relative. I have already greeted her, and she will take care of you more."
Qingchuan was stunned when she heard this, and asked, "Are you saying that Eighth Brother asked you to come and help me?"
The guard smiled, nodded and left.
Qingchuan's heart was suddenly very complicated. Eighth elder brother was imprisoned in the clan's mansion for saving her, and now it is for her to start a gambling game that provokes Kangxi's anger, and wants to give him to death. He treats her like this, how can she? I can't save you! But if she wanted to save him, she was just a little court lady, how could she save him
I can't refer to it anymore, she is afraid that she will be involved with Ba Ge, and it is too late to hide this matter, so how can she help herself. But after going out, who else can she go to? Qingchuan was anxious, and after spinning around the place for a few times, his brain suddenly came to light, and he came up with a person. De Fei! De Fei is a well-known and good person in the palace, and she has been so instructive to herself. If she asks her, will things turn for the better
Qingchuan did not dare to delay, and hurried to Yonghe Palace, only to find that Concubine De was not in the palace. The lady guarding the gate recognized Qingchuan as a member of the Qianqing Palace, and said with a polite tone: "The Concubine De consort has accompanied the emperor to the Qin'an Temple."
Qingchuan wanted to chase to the Buddhist hall, but was afraid of being seen by Kangxi, so he had to restrain his impatience, and waited for the De concubine outside Yonghe Palace. It wasn't until the sky was dark that Concubine De Fei came back from the outside surrounded by a group of court ladies. Seeing him, Qingchuan hurriedly rushed over, kneeling at the feet of Concubine De.
Before she spoke, she heard that Concubine De had already sighed, and asked her: "But it's for the eighth prince's business?"
Qingchuan kowtowed to Concubine De and begged: "The eighth prince did this for me. Please save the eighth prince."
Concubine De's face appeared embarrassed and said: "This... The palace has just persuaded the emperor in the Buddhist hall, but the holy will has been decided, and the palace is really helpless."
Qingchuan was even more frightened when he heard it, and repeatedly kowtowed: "Manny, please, please send me compassion and help Ba Ge."
Seeing her this way, a hesitant color flashed in Defei's eyes, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Well, I don't want to watch Ba prince die in vain, you go to Chengqian Palace for a walk, take Ba Ba Tell the people inside about Elder Brother, there may be a glimmer of life."
Qingchuan was startled and couldn't help asking, "Who is living in Chengqian Palace?"
De Fei paused, and then replied: "It is the birth mother of the eighth elder brother, the concubine Liang."
"Liang Concubine Empress?" Qingchuan has been in the palace for a while, but she has never heard of the Liang Concubine Empress.
De Fei said: "You don't need to ask, just do it. It's up to you to succeed."
Hearing what she said, Qingchuan had no other choice, and had to kowtow heavily to Concubine De, and got up and left. After she left, the emerald beside Concubine De concubine asked De Concubine in a low voice: "Niang, didn't Concubine Liang told the emperor that she would never take a step out of Chengqian Palace for the rest of her life?"
De Fei said: "If things go urgently, maybe she will make an exception for her son."
Jade was a little worried, "But the emperor hates her so much, will he add fuel to the fire?"
Concubine De was lost for a moment. After a moment of silence, she replied, "Life and death are in fate, wealth and wealth are in heaven. No one can say about fate. Maybe the emperor Minger thought about father and son as soon as he woke up. Brother, maybe the emperor saw that Liangfei's sister was not only unwilling to forgive, but the intention to kill was even more serious. This is not impossible. In short, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor, and everything depends on the good fortune of the eighth brother." He sighed, turned and walked towards Yonghe Palace.
