The swansong of the swansong

Chapter 137: The Deposed Crown Prince (11)

After the fourteenth old man with a bruised butt was dragged into the palace, Kangxi calmed down!
"Take him away to get treated." After Kangxi's emotions stabilized a little, he said, "Call the imperial physician."

"Whoo!"

After the impulsive Fourteenth Prince was carried away, the Fourth Prince breathed a sigh of relief. It was a close call, and he couldn't help but look at Yinyou.

Yinyou didn't look at the fourth brother, he kept his head down, thinking in his heart, how to maximize the benefits next?

After the farce of killing his son ended, Kangxi persisted and said: "I want to reinstate Yinreng as the crown prince. What do you think?"

To be honest, Kangxi truly loves the prince!
Yinyou asked himself, if he and Yinreng switched positions, there was no way Kangxi would be able to do this for him!
Tong Guowei and Prince Zhuang were both driven out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and Prince Yu Baotai was so frightened by Yinyou that he dared not speak.

The eighth brother lay on the ground without getting up, but Kangxi never looked at him directly.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Eighth Master’s Party is doomed!
No matter what others think, since Kangxi did not kill the fourteenth prince, the fourth prince must stand up and speak for Kangxi.

"Your servant respectfully requests Father Khan to reinstate my second brother as the crown prince!" The fourth brother knelt down before the Sumeru throne and took the lead in persuading the king to ascend the throne.

When Kangxi saw that the fourth prince was so understanding, he was very pleased and praised him, saying, "Fourth prince, I am proud of you!"

Yinyou was the prince's brother-in-law. In order to avoid suspicion, he deliberately slowed down a few steps. Only after the twelfth prince also stood up to persuade him to ascend the throne did he blend into the crowd of people who were trying to persuade him to ascend the throne.

At this time, Zhang Yushu from the Han minister's side decisively followed the fourth brother's example and knelt down to persuade him to ascend the throne.

"Your servant Zhang Yushu respectfully requests the emperor to reinstate the legitimate son as the crown prince!" After all, Zhang Yushu is a Han minister, and he believes in reinstating the legitimate son first.

After Zhang Yushu knelt down, his disciples and former officials also joined in persuading him to ascend the throne.

Prince Yu Baotai had committed a serious mistake and had to mend his ways in order to gain Kangxi's forgiveness.

He glared at the prostrate Old Eight fiercely, closed his eyes, knelt down and said, "I second the proposal of Zhang Zhongtang!"

The situation is totally over!

Without the leadership of the princes, the kings and Manchu nobles would not have the courage to challenge Kangxi's authority!

The emperor who has been in power for more than forty years is like the Himalayas, making his subjects feel awe!

When everyone in the Hall of Supreme Harmony knelt down to persuade him to ascend the throne, Kangxi was really satisfied. In fact, this kind of effect of one call and a hundred responses was what he wanted!

Only by reinstating Yinreng, whose prestige had been destroyed, as the crown prince, would Kangxi have time to arrange everything that would happen next!
Otherwise, as long as the eighth prince became the crown prince, Kangxi would never be able to sleep peacefully again, always worrying about the Xuanwu Gate Incident!
"Chen Heng, issue the edict!"

"Yes."

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: The Second Son of the Emperor, Yinreng...is hereby reinstated as the Crown Prince. This is announced to the whole world. Please obey!"

"This slave takes the order."

"Your Highness obeys your command."

"I accept the decree."

At this point, the farce of restoring the crown prince has come to a temporary end.

But it’s not over yet!

Kangxi didn't look at the Eighth Prince, but said coldly: "Eighth Prince Yinsi, you have ulterior motives and are trying to seize the throne. You deserve to be killed. I have never intended to pass the throne to the Eighth Prince. I hope the kings and ministers will not make the mistake!"

When Yinyou heard this, he knew that the evil Taoist Zhang Mingde must have fallen into the hands of Kangxi.

Alas, Lao Ba is really stupid!

Others who covet the throne always do so quietly, but one move is fatal!
The eighth brother, on the other hand, actually believed the eldest brother's lies and played some tricks of adding more white to the king, and even dared to spread it widely!

"Issue an imperial decree, that the eighth prince Yinsi be stripped of his title of Beile, be removed from all his posts, and be confined to the Imperial Clan House!"

"Han Ama..." The tenth brother got angry and jumped out to object.

However, Kangxi went on to say: "The Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince formed a clique for personal gain and are imprisoned together!"

"Khan Father, why?" The Tenth Prince was quite aggressive and even dared to contradict Kangxi.

This time, Kangxi would not give them another chance, and ordered decisively: "Fourth Prince, Fifth Prince, Seventh Prince, you will supervise Eighth Prince, Ninth Prince, and Tenth Prince respectively."

No matter how good the relationship between the fourth and eighth brothers is, it is impossible for Kangxi to openly contradict each other when he is angry!
"Heng Chen, draft an edict to have the fifteenth son of the emperor, Prince Yinyu, concurrently in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Upper Three Banners Guard Camp."

"Wow!" Everyone in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was stunned by Kangxi's decision.

By handing over the Upper Three Banners Guard Camp to Yinyou, Kangxi was equivalent to handing over his own life to Yinyou.

As we all know, the main responsibility of the Guard Camp is to protect the imperial palace.

The imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty was not just the Forbidden City.

The area from Daqing Gate in the south to Shenwu Gate in the north, Xihua Gate in the west to Donghua Gate in the east all belongs to the imperial palace area!
These areas are all under the protection of the troops sent by the Three Flags Guard Camp!

Of course, the area north of the Qianqing Gate belongs to the Forbidden Palace and is not under the jurisdiction of the Guard Camp! Let's put it this way, if someone can deal with Yinyu, it would be equivalent to Li Er dealing with Chang He, the guard of Xuanwu Gate. He can drive straight into the Qianqing Palace and turn Kangxi into Li Yuan.

"My Lord, I dare not obey your order!" Yinyu was not stupid. The fourth son had not yet been made a prince. He himself was too prominent, which might not be a good thing. "The Guard Camp is..."

However, as soon as Yinyu began to explain his reasons, Kangxi waved his hand and said, "It's settled, don't say any more!"

Kangxi insisted on giving him military power, and Yinyou had no choice but to obey the order obediently!

"Kneel down!"

After so much trouble, Kangxi finally achieved his goal of restoring the crown prince. At least he did not lose.

However, Lao Ba and his gang lost miserably and were left with nothing but their underwear!
The core members of the Eighth Master Party, the Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth, were all imprisoned. Including the eldest brother who had been imprisoned for a long time, the reputation of the Eighth Master Party was obviously hit hard.

At this moment, the eighth brother suddenly shouted: "Khan Ama, I am guilty, please do not implicate my ninth and tenth brothers!"

Yinyu sighed secretly, now you know how to take responsibility? Oh, what did you do before?
Kangxi didn't even look at the Eighth Prince. He led the Crown Prince down from the Sumeru throne and walked out from the back of the hall!

As the saying goes, character determines destiny. Lao Ba's fear of his wife is just a superficial manifestation of his good planning and indecisiveness.

Many people, when nothing happens, understand everything, speak eloquently and plausibly.

Once a big event happens, you become paralyzed. You want to win but are afraid of losing. The psychological burden is so heavy that you dare not go all in and gamble!

Those who don't gamble and just lie down will be treated like cattle and horses and will not get any benefits. When there is a layoff, they will become the priority and will be left with nothing but complaints.

After blending into the crowd and walking out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Yinyu stood on the high steps, overlooking the Daqing Gate, and the view in front of him suddenly opened up!
On the way to the Imperial Household Department, wow, so many shameless old officials from the Imperial Household Department came up to me shamelessly and bowed to greet me.

"Please be well, Master Fifteen!"

"Master Fifteen, please walk slower."

"Master Fifteen, I went to your Beile Mansion on New Year's Day. But something happened in the temporary palace, so I had to turn back!"

To survive in the palace, it is a necessary skill to speak the truth to people and lies to ghosts!
Yinyou, who has been accustomed to the fickleness of the world, has long since cultivated his heart to be as hard as iron!
After Yinyou walked into the hall of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he found that the signature room that originally belonged to him was crowded with servants who were cleaning.

As far as the naked eye can see, the dust on the desk has piled up very high!

These bastards, as soon as the guests leave, they are forgotten. Their performance is particularly wonderful!
After taking charge of the Imperial Household Department again, Yinyou felt somewhat happy!
No matter how you look at it, it’s not a bad thing to see these bootlickers in the Imperial Household Department returning to their servile ways!
At this time, Qin Dena, who was demoted by Lao Ba to raise horses in Shangsiyuan, hurried over.

"Your servant Qin Dena, please be at peace!"

Since the relationship is different, the names are naturally different.

Qin Dena was a doctor in the hall who was promoted by Yinyu. He was also implicated by Yinyu and was forced to raise horses. He must be considered one of his own.

"He Yi, you should have no objection to Qin Dena returning to the office to serve as a sitting doctor, right?" Yinyou deliberately pushed He Yi into a corner.

He Yi is not Ling Pu. He had long expected that Yinyou would come back to take power one day.

"My Lord Fifteen, I will prepare a memorial and petition the Emperor today to transfer Qin Denar back to the office to continue to be a sitting doctor." When He Yi said this, Yinyou knew that his attitude was to cooperate fully and he would not dare to drag his feet.

The king's flag changes at the top of the city!
I am Hu Hansan, no, I, Yinyou, am back again!
In fact, as long as Yinyou can come back, those grandsons in the Imperial Household Department who are trying to curry favor with the powerful will have to think carefully.

Are you afraid of being held accountable later?
After He Yi submitted his petition, the Qianqing Palace approved it on the same day. Qin Dena was awarded the fourth-rank hat and reinstated as a doctor in the Imperial Household Department.

For a time, Yinyou's popularity in the Imperial Household Department skyrocketed. Everyone knew that the Fifteenth Master was a big shot in front of the Emperor.

The current Yinyou has several times more power than before he was deposed as the crown prince!
The Minister of the Imperial Guard of the Bordered Yellow Banner, the manager of the Guard Camp, the manager of the Imperial Household Department, and concurrently the manager of Shuntian Prefecture, any one of these positions and errands is enough to allow him to walk around the capital with his head held high!
When Yinyou returned home from his duty, Wulin came to report.

"Master, the alley in front of the mansion is blocked again."

Yinyou pursed his lips and smiled, this was the icing on the cake of the fickleness of the world!
Hehe, when I lost power, you all ran away.

When I regain power, who will you be?
Yinyou still followed the old rules and wanted to go back home through the back door.

However, this time it was different. The back door of the Beile Mansion was blocked tightly by people from the Imperial Guard Department, Shuntian Prefecture and the Guard Camp.

You can't just climb over the wall to go back home, right?

Yinyou had no choice but to order the area to be cleared.

"Wulin, go tell them that anyone who gets in the way will be transferred to Heilongjiang to enjoy a better life."

To put it bluntly, after getting used to the glamorous world of the capital, who would be willing to go to the bitter and cold place outside the Great Wall to "enjoy life"?

As soon as Yinyou walked into the second gate, he saw Cuiqing leading the women, full of joy, squatting down to greet him.

Yes, that’s right. The Crown Prince was deposed, and the Crown Princess was also deposed. As the Crown Princess’s younger sister, Cui Qing must be extremely scared, right?

The richer the family, the more likely it is that they will resort to any means to harm the women in the house for the sake of profit!

PS: This is the second update. A climax of tens of thousands of words, I think it is well written, please give me a monthly ticket to help me stand firm in second place. Two more updates will be in the early morning and around noon tomorrow.
