The swansong of the swansong

Chapter 210 No Stop Without Order

When Wei Zhu found Yinyou, Yinyou was sitting under the shade of a tree by the lake, fishing leisurely.

Among all the top dignitaries in the entire Qing Dynasty, no one dared to fish in Changchun Garden except Yinyu.

As the most powerful prince of the dynasty, Yinyou had no need to follow the rules and tread on thin ice.

In fact, if he were a little unrestrained and did something harmless and extraordinary, it would not only reflect his unparalleled favor, but also be the benefit he deserves as a lone minister!

Without some privileges and benefits, whoever wants to be a lone minister can go ahead and be one. I won’t serve you anymore!

"Prince Yu, the Emperor wants you to come over." Wei Zhu was not actually very afraid of the current emperor, but was quite wary of Yinyou.

At the beginning, Liang Jiugong actually had a great chance of survival.

However, Yinyou dealt with Liang Jiugong decisively before the imperial decree was issued. Which eunuch in the palace would not be afraid?
"Old Wei, if it's not too urgent, then wait until I catch this big fish, and then it won't be too late to go!" After Yinyou said this, Wei Zhu immediately understood that Prince Yu must have guessed that something big was going to happen in Qingxi Study.

"Prince Yu, you can't let His Majesty wait too long!" Wei Zhu's words were ambiguous and quite artistic.

Yinyou deliberately dawdled for more than a quarter of an hour before throwing away his fishing rod and pacing leisurely to meet Kangxi.

Upon hearing that Yinyou had arrived, Kangxi immediately called him in.

"Little Fifteen, Prince Fan forced me to reinstate the Second Prince as the Crown Prince, but your Eighth Brother said that this matter is of great importance and should not be rushed. What do you think?" Kangxi felt that Yinyou came too late and was angry, so his tone was not very friendly.

The eighth brother was the elder brother, so it was impossible for Yinyou to shout for war and killing in front of Kangxi.

Although Wang Fan was the prime minister, Yinyou did not feel any psychological burden when he spoke harshly to him.

"My Lord, Wang Fan is lying for his own personal gain. He deserves death!" Yinyou stood very firm and put Wang Fan in the same category as Qin Hui with just one word.

Nowadays, if you want to bully someone, you must first destroy their morals!
Qing law?
Haha, this thing is really useful. Being an emperor is not so cool!

Before Kangxi could speak, Yinyu continued, "The Second Prince's reputation has been ruined and he is no longer worthy of being the crown prince. How can you say that he is acting too hastily?"

Yinyou attacked from both sides, punching Wang Xun and kicking Lao Ba, firmly standing on the side of the imperial party!

Kangxi found this very pleasing to the ear, so he said in a hypocritical manner: "Wang Fan is not a treacherous minister, he just reads too many books!"

Yinyou almost laughed. When Kangxi became bad, he was really bad!

I read too many books, my brain doesn't work well, I'm crazy!
Kangxi's words seemed to be defending Wang Xun, but he was indirectly scolding him: Idiot!
Since ancient times, grace has always come from above.

Yinyou said harsh words with a dark face, and Kangxi pretended to be a good guy. This is a real double act!

"Your Majesty is wise!" Wang Xun quickly knelt down to express his gratitude, cold sweat breaking out all over his body.

Under the historical background of the Qing Dynasty, once you were linked to Qin Hui, hehe, it would be impossible for you to lose only the head of the prime minister!

"Eighth Prince, don't act too hastily. What do you mean?" Kangxi asked with a cold face, "Are you trying to stall for the future?"

These words were too harsh. Lao Ba quickly knelt down, prostrated himself on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "I have absolutely no delusions. Please, Khan, please understand!"

"Insight? I have been on the throne for more than fifty years. What kind of treacherous villains have I not seen?" Kangxi's question pushed the suspicion between father and son to a new level.

Kangxi let Wang Xun off lightly because all of Wang Xun's students and former officials were Han officials and civil servants who had no soldiers under their command, so killing them was as easy as killing chicks.

Lao Ba is different. No matter what his subjective thoughts are, objectively, he really has the ability to learn from Li Erfeng.

In his later years, what Kangxi feared most was being forced to abdicate.

The emperor has been in power for too long and is used to his word being law. It is impossible for him to step down from the throne on his own initiative as long as he can't close his eyes.

It is clearly recorded in history books that Li Longji’s life as the emperor in his later years can be summed up in four words: life is worse than death!
"The Eighth Prince has ulterior motives and covets the throne. He is stripped of his title of Beile and imprisoned in the Imperial Clan House."

The Eighth Prince was not the crown prince raised by Kangxi since childhood, and Kangxi did not have deep feelings for him, so he was reluctant to take such cruel action against him.

"I accept your order and thank you." Lao Ba was completely disheartened. He just came to the garden to report the urgent matters of Guangshanku.

However, unexpectedly, a disaster struck, and instead of knocking down Wang Fan, it knocked down Lao Ba again.

After the news of the Eighth Prince being imprisoned spread, the Ninth Prince led the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince to Changchun Garden and knelt down to beg to see Kangxi.

After hearing this, Yinyou sighed secretly, why couldn't they learn their lesson?
Logically speaking, what Kangxi hated most was forming factions, but Lao Jiu and his people were not stupid, and they just liked to gather together and cause trouble.

It's really unbelievable!

Yinyou knew that something was wrong, so he left Zhang Tingyu behind again and went fishing.

However, Kangxi used Yinyou as a knife so skillfully that he was reluctant to let go.

People are like this, once they are familiar with a certain path, they will keep going until they hit a wall!
The same principle applies to Qianlong's use of Heshen. Whenever Qianlong wants to spend money, He Zhongtang will always find a way to get him money.

Wei Zhu's godson Xiao Liu Zhang looked at Yinyou eagerly, wanting to urge him but not daring to do so, so pitiful!

Yinyou had no choice but to put down his fishing rod and walk towards Qingxi Book House.

At the entrance of Qingxi Book House, Yinyu saw that the ninth, tenth and fourteenth brothers were kneeling in a row. Seeing Yinyu passing by, the tenth brother snorted in a sullen manner, his disdain obvious.

"Your Majesty, I, Yinyu, respectfully wish you the best of health."

"Get up."

When Yinyu stood up straight, Kangxi asked, "What do they want to do?"

What do you want to do?
They don't dare to rebel. They are just stupid and have been doing stupid things.

Yinyu thought so in his heart, but he said: "They want to plead for my dear brother!"

"Plead for mercy? Is there anyone who would plead for mercy like this? I'm afraid they just want to force the emperor to abdicate?" Kangxi asked three questions in a row, revealing his suspicion of the Eighth Brothers vividly.

"Khan Father, whoever dares to force me to abdicate, I will never agree!" Yinyou expressed his attitude without hesitation.

At this critical juncture, Yinyou, who is the knife that kills people, will become more passive the later he expresses his stance!

Kangxi said with great satisfaction: "My little fifteen is still the most caring!"

Yinyou didn't dare say a word, but he sneered in his heart: The former crown prince who was closest to you is imprisoned in Xian'an Palace, and he wishes you would die sooner every day.

"They are looking at me, and I can't bear to kill them. Little Fifteen, can you think of a way for me to let them know their place?" Kangxi posed another difficult question.

Yinyu pretended to think of a solution. He thought for half a quarter of an hour before he whispered, "It seems that we can send someone to sweep the ancestral tombs in Fengtian."

Kangxi's eyes lit up. The ninth brother had the most clever ideas. As long as he was sent away, the capital would be peaceful!
"Issue an imperial decree. The ninth prince Yinzhen is to go to Fengtian to worship his ancestors. The fourteenth prince Yinzhen is to go to Xiaoling Mausoleum to fulfill his filial duties on my behalf. The tenth prince Yin is to stay at home and study!" Kangxi followed suit and separated the princes of the Eighth Prince's party so that they would not be an eyesore in front of him.

After the decree was passed down, the fourteenth elder brother was the first to jump up and shouted loudly: "Khan Ama, what did my brother do wrong? I dare to guarantee with my head that my brother has no intention of committing a crime!"

The tenth old man was an uneducated barbarian. He also joined in the fun and shouted, "Khan Ama, I don't like to study. You already know that."

Lao Jiu rolled his eyes and said loudly, "I refuse to accept it! I will not accept it even if I die."

The guards around looked at each other, and no one dared to speak or move.

The three uncles are all the emperor’s biological sons, and only the emperor can beat and scold them.

If the guards dared to act rashly and knocked off even a hair of theirs, the worst that could happen would be losing their heads.

"They are making so much noise, Little Fifteen, go and chase them away!" Kangxi was annoyed by the noise and simply asked Yinyou to deal with them.

Yinyu knew the thorny part, so he did not immediately go out to act as a thug. Instead, he quietly asked Kangxi: "What if they refuse to obey?"

"Humph, as long as you don't kill me, you can do whatever you want!"

Kangxi also knew how difficult the ninth brother and the others were to deal with. Moreover, they were all older brothers. Without the support of an imperial decree, Yinyou would not be able to bully his brothers.

"Hey." After receiving the order, Yinyu walked up to Lao Jiu and asked him sternly, "Ancestor worship is everyone's duty. How dare you disrespect your ancestors?"

"Who do you think you are? How dare you teach me a lesson?" The person that the Ninth Brother was most dissatisfied with was Yinyou.

Yinyou was of a very humble origin and was still a child. What virtue and ability did he have to deserve to be in such a high position?
"Ninth brother, I am indeed nothing. However, I am here to teach you a lesson on the order of Khan Ama, which is completely different." Yinyu suddenly shouted loudly, "Come here, arrest all the people who followed Ninth brother and spank them hard!"

As a younger brother, Yinyou really didn't dare to hit his brother!

However, Yinyu dared to do such a cruel thing because he took advantage of the power of others to kill several of the ninth brother's confidants!

"Yinwei, you are too arrogant. I have wanted to beat you up for a long time!" The tenth brother got up from the ground, waved his fists, and rushed towards Yinwei.

The Fourteenth Prince also got excited and followed the Tenth Prince, wanting to take the opportunity to beat Yinyou up.

Lao Jiu is good at coming up with tricks and doesn't like to use violence. But since his younger brothers have all gone, how can he not go?

Yinyou was waiting for this moment. Now that the fish had taken the bait, he turned around and ran without hesitation.

"Khan Ama, save me!"

Yinyou ran inside like a rabbit, shouting loudly as he ran!
"Khan Ama, save me!"

Before entering the door, Yinwei's shoulder hit the door frame heavily, and the hat on his head fell to the ground.

At the critical moment, Yinyou didn't care about anything else and rushed straight into Kangxi's room.

Under Kangxi's astonished eyes, Yinyu fell to the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Khan Ama, they all bullied me!"

Kangxi was so angry that he was shaking all over. Yinyou went out to convey the emperor's orders. He was an imperial envoy, not just a younger brother!
Lao Jiu and the others were not stupid either. They did not dare to chase into Kangxi's house and withdrew their feet in time.

"Pass on my order. Arrest He Zhu who is beside the Ninth Prince, Zhang Chang who is beside the Tenth Prince, and Liu Yi who is beside the Fourteenth Prince. Beat them severely with a stick. Do not stop without my order!"

"Whoo!"
