At this time, Su Yuanyuan and Yinzhen had been married for almost three years, so she was naturally envied by being so prominent, and her stomach has not moved, which became a reason for some people to laugh at her. As soon as some rumors spread, Yinzhen suppressed them vigorously. But just in time for the draft, many women of the right age have moved their minds. Yinzhen is already a prince, so why should he marry two side Fujin? This also includes the Ulanala clan who is over sixteen, and the Nian clan who is over thirteen.

Nian Gengyao is now working under Yinzhen, but there are so many people under Yinzhen, he has not been reused. And Nian Shi just came here, although she was shocked that there were other time-traveling women, she still felt that she could choose a good prince to marry, because now the princes below Yinzhen are all brothers and sisters, which means that they will not be downcast in the future, all of them She is a very capable prince, she won't suffer from marrying anyone. Also because her body is really a stunning beauty, she also believes that she will definitely enter the royal family based on this appearance alone.

Because of this consideration, Nian Gengyao took the opportunity to test Yinzhen's tone, and implicitly expressed that he wanted to present the most beloved daughter of the Nian family to show his loyalty.

Yinzhen glanced at him, and said calmly: "Lianggong's younger sister is naturally good, and I think she will be accused of being a good match in this draft."

Nian Gengyao was stunned, a little unbelievable, and said bravely: "My lord, now that the emperor values you, and the king of Zhijun and the crown prince are eyeing you, will they... attack you with regard to your heirs?"

Yinzhen's face became even more indifferent, and he turned his fingers without raising his eyes, "This king has his own decision on this matter."

Nian Gengyao heard his displeasure, held his breath, and said cautiously, "Yes, this servant will leave."

After he left, Yinzhen tapped the table lightly, found Su Peisheng and said: "The king of Zhijun and the crown prince don't have to bear it any longer, send out their criminal evidence."

"yes!"

The evidence of this crime was naturally sent to the opponent. As soon as the Pearl Party discovered the criminal evidence of the Prince's Party, it attacked vigorously. Immediately afterwards, the Prince's Party also discovered the evidence of the Pearl Party's crime, and quickly fought back. They fought like a raging fire, even the Jiangnan corruption case was uncovered, and many officials were punished. When Zhijun Wang and the crown prince came back to their senses, they suddenly found that Yinzhen was secretly picking up the leaks. At least half of the officials who made up were Yinzhen. Zhen people!

Of course, this was what Yinzhen let them discover, and it was useless for them to find out. His people did not break the law or discipline. After so long, the people who came up were all people who did practical things. The crown prince has been suspected by Kangxi and targeted by King Zhijun in recent years, and the power under him has shrunk a lot. Now that he has Yinzhen beside him, he no longer believes in the loyal ministers of Kangxi. How could his loyal minister do such a thing? This is clearly coveting his seat!

In the eyes of the crown prince, Yinzhen has almost achieved great momentum. With power in his hands, he has won the trust of the emperor, with the help of his brothers, he has also won the hearts of the people. If he is not suppressed, his position as the crown prince will be handed over to others!

After discussing with Suo'etu, the prince even temporarily truces with the Pearl Party, and the two parties cooperate to attack Yinzhen's forces with all their might. As Yinzhen's mother and wife clan, the Tong family immediately ended up fighting with them. Although Tong Guowei is old, his heart for power has not faded, and he is still waiting for the success of the dragon.

When they fought like this, Kangxi could see clearly from the throne, and every day he frowned and his face became more and more gloomy. Finally, after the prince couldn't help whipping the minister, he was called to the Qianqing Palace to be severely reprimanded. Because Concubine De's confession included the crown prince whipping the minister, he didn't believe it at first, but he actually saw this scene!

Kangxi went from being lustful to ruthless and ruthless, from being naturally cold to ignoring the emperor's father, the prince finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"Huang Ama! Why do you look down on Erchen so much? So you have suppressed Erchen all these years to pave the way for the fourth son? Is Erchen the prince's position going to the fourth son? Don't you think you are too partial?" ?!"

Kangxi's eyes widened angrily, "I'm biased? You are the one I prefer the most! I personally raised you, strictly demanded you, and gave you countless opportunities, but you just didn't know how to repent and followed that old man Suo'etu to make trouble. Blame me for being biased?"

"How can you let the fourth brother make great achievements repeatedly if you are not partial? How can you let him become powerful if you are not partial? Take a good look at him, how many brothers help him? How many ministers are attached to him? He is forming a party for personal gain!"

"Enough! I said that anyone can fight for the crown, only the fourth child can't. Of course I have a reason for saying this. Are you doubting me now? I have been paving the way for you, but look at you What are you doing? You have made the fourth child feel cold, can you still expect him to help you in the future? You have broken your own arm!"

The prince sneered, and said fearlessly: "You are still lying to me until now. Since you replaced all my confidantes three years ago, you don't want me as a prince, do you? Are you using me? And the boss made him a whetstone!"

"Presumptuous!" Kangxi threw an inkstone over, directly smashing the crown prince's forehead. He was extremely angry in his heart, but he regretted seeing the crown prince injured and bleeding, and finally suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "Your fourth brother... was sterilized by Concubine De!"

The crown prince's eyes widened in an instant, the sarcasm on his face hadn't faded away, but his eyes were filled with surprise, "How, how is it possible? Didn't the imperial physician say that he was not poisoned?"

Kangxi snorted coldly, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, and stopped looking at him, "What the imperial doctor said is what I ordered. Do you want everyone to know about this kind of scandal? Your fourth brother has no children so far because of Suo'etu, It is you who owe him. He is not destined for a great position in this life, but he is rich in talent. If you treat him sincerely, he will definitely help you sincerely in the future. He gets along well with the prince and ministers. Isn't it just for you to clear the court? Baocheng, you When did you start to disbelieve my words so much?"

Kangxi's sigh made the prince dizzy. If it was true, wouldn't he have broken his own arm? He shook his head and took a step back, "Impossible, if he wanted to help me, how could he stand idly by in my fight with the boss? How could he take advantage of troubled waters to install his own people?"

"What is his own person? The ones he brought up are all people who do the facts! What has your fourth brother done these years that are not for the country and the people? As for standing by and watching? Humph, you are not the emperor now, but I am the emperor." Emperor, the fourth child can only listen to me."

"No, I don't believe it!"

The prince was anxious to find out the truth, but he couldn't believe Kangxi, so he turned around and left. He has also been irritated severely in the past few years, and has become surly, a bit like when he was abandoned in history, smashing the cans and smashing.

Kangxi closed his eyes, clenched his hands behind his back into fists. The appearance of the prince is 10% similar to that described by Concubine De, but he knows that he is the one who made the prince look like this in advance! It was his precaution and suspicion that aroused the prince's rebellious heart, and it was his strict discipline that made the prince breathless, which made the father and son break up ten years earlier.

But this knot is really unsolvable. He and the prince are not only father and son, but also the throne and Suo'etu faction between them. It is true that Yinzhen has been watching the dispute between the crown prince and the elder brother all these years, but that is because he ordered Yinzhen to weaken the power of Suo'etu and Mingzhu. A few years later, the power of Suo'etu and Mingzhu is only half of what it was then. This is the result he expected to see, and he is very satisfied. But he and the crown prince have different positions. The crown prince only regards Suo'etu as his backstop, and regards his brother-in-law and eunuchs as close people, but he never thought about how a real king of a country can allow his subordinates to commit crimes? And the prince's backer will never be Suo'etu, but him!

It's a pity that the relationship between father and son is irretrievable, and the crown prince is no longer suitable for the throne. The prophecy of the demise of the Qing Dynasty hung over his head like a knife, and he could not choose such a crony prince as emperor. Who would you choose for the other princes

In the past few years, Kangxi has been paying attention to the situation of several sons, but he has not found one who is suitable for the throne in all aspects. It is absolutely inappropriate for the boss to have no talent for governing the country, no tolerance for others, and no self-knowledge. The third child can only make a fuss, although he has thoughts but no ability. The old eighth's status is indeed low, and his methods are not ruthless enough. To make the Qing Dynasty prosperous and strong, a powerful emperor must be needed.

But the others are not prominent enough, let alone inappropriate. The rest are only a few who have not yet grown up. Little Thirteen is smart but too impulsive, Little Fourteen is smart but not steady enough, and has nothing to calculate. After calculation, it seems that only Little Fifteen, born to the imperial concubine, is the most suitable. Young enough and smart enough that he could teach him himself, he still has that time. Yinzhen, who was raised by the imperial concubine, has the closest relationship with Fifteen, so he should help Fifteen well, right

But in this way, the Tong family cannot continue to grow, it must be suppressed. Three generations of scenery are enough, it's time for silence.

When Kangxi was frowning and thinking, the prince had already left the palace to find Suo'etu and told him about Yinzhen's sterilization! Suo'etu was also shocked, but when he thought that Concubine De was stabbed to death and the Baoyi family was ransacked and exiled, it seemed that it all showed that Concubine De had really harmed Yinzhen, otherwise why would Kangxi be so angry? But no matter whether Yinzhen will assist the prince in the future, he will definitely threaten his status.

Suo'etu knew that Kangxi had always been dissatisfied with him, and now that he has trained Yinzhen to assist the prince, is he ready to deal with him? After thinking about it carefully, he said to the prince seriously: "His Royal Highness, even if what the emperor said is true, who can guarantee that Prince Yong will sincerely assist you? Although he can't have children, he can control the government. Think about it." Dorgon. If he harms you and supports a nephew to the throne, wouldn't the little emperor become a puppet in his hands?"

The prince nodded slowly, "That's right. Just now, Cai Gu also told Huang Ama that the fourth child could not really help me. It's a pity that Huang Ama recognized him. Heh, Huang Ama probably just took a fancy to him. A threat?"

Seeing that the prince still trusted him as before, Suo Etu felt a little more at ease, and suggested: "Why don't His Royal Highness give him a try? If he is willing to show his loyalty, he should privately hand over some power to His Royal Highness. The power is in your hands You can only use it in your hands. Since he is the assistant minister trained by the emperor for you, he should know his identity. If he is not willing... the minister thinks that he must have wolf ambitions. Especially the concubine De made him sterilized and has something to do with the old minister. The old minister is afraid Because of this, he hates the old minister and your Highness! Please think twice, Your Highness."

The prince frowned tightly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Suo'etu was right. Which man doesn't want to carry on the family line? If it were him, he would definitely hate Suo'etu to death. He remembered that he had pleaded for Suo'etu on this matter back then, could it be because of this that Yinzhen hated him

The prince decided to meet with Yinzhen, no matter what, he had to test his intentions first.

Yinzhen received the post from the prince as expected, he got up and went to the room to change clothes, held Su Yuanyuan's hand and said: "I have wronged you these few days, and you have been blamed."

Su Yuanyuan smiled nonchalantly, leaned into his arms and looked up at him, "I couldn't give birth in the first place, how can I be blamed? If I could give birth, you wouldn't drink that bowl of Juezi soup. Besides those things The twittering of the villain with a broken mouth can only satisfy my own jealousy. I don’t care if I’m a clown. If I’m serious, I’d laugh at them for being useless. They can do nothing but cling to men every day, but I don’t have that Pay attention to them with interest."

"That being said, gossip is always annoying, and I don't want you to suffer those cynicism. You just need to be happy and do whatever you want."

"Well, those are your strengths."

Yinzhen was a manager in her previous life, and controlling public opinion in the entertainment industry is considered a skill, but she never thought she could use it now. He also learned the ability to guess people's hearts well. Although he didn't like others talking about Su Yuanyuan's impromptu idea this time, he still created a good time, and even guessed that Kangxi was going to train Xiaoshiwu.

Yinzhen was invited to meet the crown prince in Yuqing Palace. The crown prince looked at him with scrutiny. After a few words of greeting, he tentatively said: "Gu has lost a lot of manpower recently, and I can't find anyone who can do things well. I don't know if the fourth brother's subordinates But is there any capable person who can use it alone?"

Yinzhen said respectfully and distantly: "His Royal Highness, my disciples only have a few ordinary disciples, who are clumsy and clumsy. I'm afraid it will spoil the affairs of His Royal Highness."

The prince's face darkened, he stared at him and asked: "Fourth brother has a lot of friends, why don't you recommend some capable ministers?"

Yinzhen thought for a moment, and said a few names, but the prince's expression became even uglier. Without him, all Yinzhen talked about were Kangxi people.

The prince sneered displeasedly, "It seems that elder brother Gu did not do it properly, the fourth brother is not even willing to help such a small favor."

Yinzhen stood up and bowed his head to salute, "His Royal Highness, forgive me."

This is the end of the talk! The crown prince waved him away, and he didn't believe Kangxi's words even more. Maybe even Kangxi was lying to him, otherwise why suppress him like this? Now surrounded by a pack of wolves, he is already a trapped beast, he should really plan for himself!

Suo'etu breathed a sigh of relief when he received the news from the prince. Although he hopes that the crown prince will ascend to the throne as soon as possible, he must first ensure that the biggest beneficiary of the crown prince's ascension is him. Fortunately, Kangxi is still very healthy, and they still have time to defeat the threat of Yinzhen. Suo'etu released the news directly, and did not directly say that Yinzhen could not give birth, but only pretended to come out unintentionally, wondering why Prince Yong didn't take a concubine? Is it possible that you don't want an heir

It's strange that a twenty-year-old man doesn't care about heirs. Could it be that the one who can't have children is not Sifu Jin at all, but Prince Yong

This remark was refuted by others as soon as it came out. After all, in everyone's mind, not being able to conceive is always a woman's business. How could a prince not be conceived? But before they could say anything more about Su Yuanyuan, the people Yinzhen sent to guide public opinion acted. Within a day, the story of Prince Yong being sterilized by his birth mother spread all over the capital, and the rumors that Su Yuanyuan couldn't give birth were easily dispelled. Never give up.

When everyone discusses quietly, they always have to criticize Concubine De, and then sympathize with Prince Yong and Su Yuanyuan, and praise them for being more affectionate than gold, for being able to treat such things with a normal heart, and to do so many good things. At this time, everyone thought of the benefits that Prince Yong brought to the people, and Su Yuanyuan's protection of women. There were a large number of people who had their hearts towards them. Now that the truth is revealed, they are all praising Prince Yong and Su Yuanyuan. Words, even more moved by their actions for the sake of the people.

With Yinzhen behind the scenes, these remarks could not be stopped, Kangxi was furious when he found out, and immediately summoned the prince to him, pointed at his nose and was so angry that he could not speak.
