The Destiny of Going to Hell

After learning from Ruoxi that the Qing Dynasty would perish, Kangxi summoned all the princes the next day and gathered them in the imperial study.

Kangxi looked solemn, looked around at the princes, and said slowly, "I summoned you today because of a shocking news. Ruoxi came from the future, and she said that the Qing Dynasty would face a catastrophe and disappear in the long river of history."

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked and looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

When Kangxi said this, the princes were shocked, some could not believe it, and some fell into deep thought.

The prince stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Father, this matter is of great importance, we should consider it carefully."

The other princes also agreed, "What the Crown Prince said is very true. The current urgency is to find a solution to the problem and consolidate the foundation of our Qing Dynasty."

Kangxi nodded, signaling everyone to be quiet. "The current situation is turbulent, and we must work together to overcome the difficulties. Princes, please express your opinions and discuss the future of the Qing Dynasty."

After reading Ruoxi's confession, everyone looked at each other in shock.

The rampant selfishness of Empress Dowager Cixi, the corruption and incompetence of officials, the short-sighted policy of closing the country to the outside world, the aggressive behavior of the Eight-Nation Alliance...

Each and every incident was so thrilling, as if the sign of the Qing Dynasty's demise was hidden in them.

However, what was even more unexpected was that it was the fourth son Yinzhen who eventually succeeded to the throne.

Everyone turned their eyes to Yinzhen, speculating in their hearts.

I just feel that he is shrewd and has ulterior motives, otherwise how could he defeat the crown prince and the eldest prince and stand out from the crowd?

This sudden change made the atmosphere in the imperial study even more solemn, and everyone was thinking about how the future fate of the Qing Dynasty would unfold.

After a long time, Crown Prince Yinreng finally could not hold back any longer, and he stepped out first and reported respectfully and firmly.

"Father, I am willing to step forward and lead the troops to expand the territory for the Qing Dynasty and enhance our country's prestige!"

He thought to himself that he had lived under the strict surveillance of the Emperor since he was born. The servants in the palace were replaced one after another like flowing water. This depressing life almost suffocated him.

Now, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has appeared before him, which can not only allow him to seize real power but also temporarily break away from Kangxi's control. How could he miss it?

"Father, my son has grown up and is eager to go out into the world to gain experience and see a wider world. Please allow me to go to the battlefield, serve the Qing Dynasty, and fight for my own future."

Crown Prince Yinreng's words were full of determination and expectation, and he knew very well that this was an important moment to change his destiny.

The eldest prince also stepped out, "I am the same as the prince!"

Since he was a child, Kangxi had chosen him to be the whetstone for the crown prince. He was unwilling and resentful. Now that things were like this, he might as well go out and lead troops to fight.

Qing Dynasty? Whoever wants to fight can fight.

Anyway, I won't fight for it.

Yinzhen also stood up, but he was not going to occupy the territory. "Father, I am willing to go to sea and develop maritime trade for the Qing Dynasty."

He was good at business, and now that Minghui was happy, he just wanted to be the most famous businessman in the world.

According to what Ruoxi said, trade is extremely important.

After a fierce dispute, everyone finally found their own destination, except Yinzhen.

He knew that he lacked military strength and was not good at using troops. He knew very well that only by staying in the Qing Dynasty could he realize his true value.

What's more, the future throne should have belonged to him, Yinzhen. He was the Emperor Yongzheng who was chosen by heaven!

Emperor Kangxi looked at Yinzhen coldly, with a hint of doubt in his tone, "Fourth Brother, don't you have anything to say?"

Yinzhen straightened his back and answered in a resounding voice, "Father, I think corruption in the officialdom is rampant and is a great threat to the country. Those who are corrupt should be executed along with their entire clan to serve as a warning to others! I am willing to stay in the Qing Dynasty and serve you, Father, and I vow to eradicate this evil trend."

When the princes heard this, they all rolled their eyes in disdain. They thought to themselves: Why are you pretending to be noble? If you want the throne, just say so!

However, Emperor Kangxi did not give Yinzhen the response he expected.

After hesitating for a moment, he slowly said, "I have decided to make the child in Hui'er's belly the new crown prince, and the country will be handed over to him in the future."

When Yinzhen heard Kangxi's decision, the expression on his face froze instantly, as if covered by ice. A trace of disbelief and loss flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

He pursed his lips, clenched his hands into fists, his nails almost digging into his palms, but still maintained a calm appearance.

He slowly raised his head and looked at Kangxi with firm eyes, as if trying to convey his inner determination and unwillingness.

However, Kangxi's eyes were like sharp blades, making it impossible for him to look directly at them.

Yinzhen had no choice but to lower his head, take a deep breath, and then exhale slowly, as if trying to calm the waves in his heart.

Although his movements were small, they revealed his inner struggle and unwillingness.

He knew that he couldn't give up just like that, but he also knew that he couldn't fight against Kangxi's wishes at the moment.

He could only accept this decision silently, and secretly swore in his heart that one day, he would prove his worth with his actions and take back everything that belonged to him.

What's more, he is just a toddler and it is hard to say whether he can grow up healthily.

Kangxi keenly caught the gleam of light in Yinzhen's eyes, and a feeling of dissatisfaction surged in his heart.

He thought to himself, this fourth brother really lacks courage! Other brothers are brave enough to go out and fight, eager to make a name for themselves, but he only wants to stick to the old rules and customs and not make progress.

I have already decided on the candidate for the future crown prince, but he still wants to compete for it. This is simply disregarding the wishes of the emperor and father, and it is a foolish dream!

I also thought about how after Yinzhen came to the throne, several of his sons were killed, injured, or imprisoned, and even the fourteenth son, who was his half-brother, had to guard the imperial mausoleum.

Kangxi became furious and threw the memorial on the table at Yinzhen.

"I tell you clearly that the throne will never be handed over to you. Give up on this idea."

Yinzhen was hit so hard that he felt dizzy. He didn't understand why the emperor was suddenly angry. Suddenly he remembered the fate of his brothers and sisters after he came to power, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

The several princes around him all understood what he meant, and they all turned their gazes to Yinzhen, their eyes full of eagerness.

After Kangxi drove them out, these princes put their hands on Yinzhen and dragged him to the martial arts field.

As soon as they arrived at the martial arts arena, several brothers started a fight, punching and kicking each other without mercy.

Among them, the eighth and fourteenth brothers beat him particularly fiercely, as if they wanted to vent all their dissatisfaction on Yinzhen.

Thinking that he would have to stay in the imperial mausoleum in the future, Old Fourteen was filled with hatred.

Thinking of their insulting titles, Lao Ba and Lao Jiu were also filled with anger.

Although Yinzhen fought hard, he was ultimately outnumbered and could only passively endure this unprovoked beating.

Through the projection of 555, Minghui curled the corners of her mouth. The Fourth Prince was the one who caused her to be crushed to ashes.

How could she possibly forget him? She let Yinzhen live for a while, and when the child was born, she would take care of him herself.
