Chapter 77 Chapter 76

On December 17, one month and four days after Kangxi's death, Fourteen was ordered to rush back from the northwest to attend the funeral and arrive in Beijing.Before the person arrived, he first went to the memorial and asked, "Which one came first to pay a visit to Zigong or He Dengji?" Yinzhen looked as usual at that time, and said lightly, "Go to Zigong first!". When Fourteen went to Shouhuang Palace to pay homage to Kangxi's coffin, Yinzhen followed.All the ministers had already knelt down on the ground, but Fourteen stood still and refused to kneel.The two brothers stood far away and stared at each other. The ministers beside them were all terrified, their heads pressed to the ground and they dared not speak.Under the bloody sunset, the figures of the two brothers standing upright were dragged infinitely long.

At the end of Fourteenth, he didn't give Yinzhen the courtesy of a monarch and a minister. After nine consecutive kowtows to Kangxi's coffin, he walked away with a long song and a sad smile.The guards on the side stepped forward to block, Shisi kicked the guards away, and strode away, leaving everyone with a sad back, slowly sinking into the sunset.Everyone leaned down on the ground, motionless, Yinzhen stood still in the afterglow of blood, casting a zigzagging shadow on the steps of the Shouhuang Palace, and sank into the darkness of the pillars. Yinzhen's face was cold and cold, and after the fourteenth left, he also kowtowed nine times to Kangxi's coffin, and lightly ordered the deposed fourteenth prince to be demoted to the son of Gushan, and returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.After returning to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, I retreated from the crowd and sat alone.Without saying a word or moving, just sitting for an entire afternoon.

Gao Wuyong stood beside me and told me the whole story in detail, and asked me what to do.I propped my head up and thought for a while and said, "The emperor just wants to be alone and quiet, nothing to do." After a long time for dinner, I asked Yutan: "Has the emperor uploaded the meal?" Yutan replied: "It has been passed on. The emperor is in a very good mood and ordered a lot of dishes." After dismissing the crowd, Yinzhen served a bowl to eat, and brought me some food while smiling.I sighed: "I feel depressed, why do I have to force myself to act like this? It's even more painful!" He put down the bowl and chopsticks and looked at me silently.After a while, he said coldly: "I can't do what they want! Lao Jiu and the others are waiting to see my jokes, but I still won't get angry."

I walked to his side, held his hand and said, "I'm already the biggest winner, some things can really be ignored." He suddenly pulled me into his arms. block. After a long while, he kissed my earlobe lightly, and whispered: "I have all beauties in the world, so you really don't need to argue with him." I was dizzy, with a hint of clarity, and hurriedly pushed him away. He sat me up straight, stroked my lips with his thumb and said softly, "Just now I..., was a little swollen, did it hurt you?" I was about to shake my head, when Gao Wuyong said outside the curtain: "Please see me, Thirteenth Lord! "

I hurriedly stood up from his arms, and the two of them looked at each other in surprise, why is it so late?He said: "Hurry up!" Thirteen strode forward, his face full of hesitation and anxiety. Yinzhen asked: "What's the matter?" Thirteen knelt down and kowtowed three times in a row: "My brother is here to ask for the imperial decree. Without the emperor's imperial decree, no prince or brother is allowed to enter or leave the nine gates at will, and he is not allowed to dispatch soldiers privately." .My brother begged the emperor to allow me to lead people to look for Luwu."

I was surprised and asked: "What's wrong with Luwu?" Thirteen clenched her fists and said: "She left a letter saying that she didn't like life in the palace, she loved Qiushan by nature, and she went back to the south of the Yangtze River, so I won't look for her again." I couldn't believe it. He shook his head and said, "How could this be? She can't be willing to part with you! Where's Cheng Huan?" Shisan smiled bitterly and said: "She said that with Brother Huang, you, and me, Cheng Huan will never be wronged." Thirteen kowtowed to Yinzhen again, and Yinzhen hurriedly knelt down to help him up and said, "I will immediately order someone to chase after him." After speaking, he raised his voice to call Gao Wuyong, and ordered Longkodo to be passed on.

Thirteen rushed out in a hurry, and I quickly grabbed him and said, "You have to look good when you are looking for someone! You have a portrait of Luwu, and let the painter paint it like that, so that people can look for it." Thirteen is like a dream Waking up for the first time, he said repeatedly: "Yes, yes! When I was under confinement, I drew a lot, so I'll go get them now." After speaking, he rushed out. I looked at Shisan's back and realized that he had already loved Luwu deeply. I had never seen Shisan like this, he was in a mess, anxious and hesitant.Even in the face of the eight princes' elaborate traps and his long and indefinite confinement career, he was still calm and unhurried.

Yinzhen ordered Gao Wuyong in a cold voice: "Send someone to find out why Luwu suddenly left Prince Yi's mansion. In addition, if you find anything, please come and report to me first." Gao Wuyong immediately turned around and left. I was walking back and forth on the ground in a hurry, Yinzhen sighed: "Even if you trample the floor, you can't change the green grass. Eat something first!" I shook my head and said, "I can't eat it!" He held up his chopsticks wanting Eat, sigh, put down the chopsticks, and order someone to come in and remove it. It was midnight, but still no news.I said to Yinzhen: "Go to sleep! You have to go to court tomorrow." He put down the memorial in his hand, and after a long silence, he said: "I am very worried now. I have never seen Thirteenth Brother like this. Back then, he was alone When he fought and killed the fierce tiger, he was still smiling lazily. But you saw it today, and the gaffe has come to this point."

I forced a smile and said, "It would be nice to find Luwu. They have lived together for ten years. Luwu himself has both talent and appearance, and it's not surprising that he has deep feelings." Shang sighed: "What I'm worried about is that I won't be able to find Lvwu!" I waved my hand and said: "No! I will definitely find it!" He sighed and said: "I hope I'm wrong!" As soon as Yinzhen returned from the early morning, I rushed up and asked, "Have you found it?" He shook his head wearily, and I hurriedly waited for him to sit down, and then twisted the veil to wipe his face.He closed his eyes and said: "The thirteenth brother will come to court in the future! You don't know, I sit on it and look at the people standing below. Everyone has their own ghosts and no one can be trusted. I always think about their masks. The real thoughts behind it. How true is the reverence and loyalty on the surface? Only then did I really understand why emperors are lonely. When I saw the thirteenth brother standing there before, I never felt this way, feeling alone."

I suppressed my tears and said, "Just wait until I find Luwu." He said without opening his eyes, "Ruoxi, hold me!" I sat beside him and hugged him tightly with all my strength. "Your Majesty, Mr. Wang, please see me!" He opened his eyes and said, "There is news from Luwu." I hurriedly got up and walked into the back room, and lowered the curtain. I leaned on the pillar and sat on the ground a little softly. "...The minister inquired according to the portrait, and someone saw a woman in a green shirt standing against the wind by the river. The person who saw it said that because of the heavy fog, the specific appearance was not clear, but they thought it was very beautiful. At that time They wanted to take a closer look, but they hesitated because they were afraid of being abrupt. Because the woman came and went in a strange way, she was standing by the river when the fog started, and she had disappeared before the fog cleared. Some ignorant women even said yes The god of the river. I went up and down the river to inquire again, but found nothing. Later, later... I suddenly heard that a fisherman had fished up a female corpse from the river, and I went to check immediately. The appearance was no longer discernible, but the jade bracelet on her wrist was exactly the same as Exactly the same as in the picture."

No, this is not true, Luwu, how can you be so cruel?How can you embarrass Thirteen Loves?This is not true!And Cheng Huan, when we named her back then, it was to make her Cheng Huan at the knees of her parents.Who do you want her to marry in the future? "Who else knows about this?" "Returning to the emperor, I will follow the emperor's order and dare not disturb anyone. Even the soldiers below, I only ordered to continue searching. The corpse has been sent by someone who is completely unaware of this matter to take care of it. " "Good job! Don't tell anyone about this matter, keep looking, get back!" "Ruoxi! Ruoxi! Look up!" I buried my head on my knees, dazed.He picked me up from the ground, put me on the couch, patted my back and said: "Thirteenth brother will suffer the most, we should think about what to do." With tears streaming down my face, I looked up and said, "It must happen that someone is wearing the same bracelet?" He was silent for a while, and asked after a while, "If it's green, what are you going to do?" I shook my head and said, "No! Because Master Thirteen's Fujin mocked Lvwu, she won't be so inferior that she throws herself into the river." He shook my head and said, "I'll ask someone to find out if it's Lvwu. But you can't do that, No matter how sad you are, can you compare with the case of the thirteenth brother? Now is not the time for us to be sad." I wiped my tears and nodded.He asked: "What if it is Luwu?" I wept and thought for a while and said, "Don't let the Thirteen Lord know! The Thirteen Lord has just been released, and he has not recovered from the grief of the death of the holy grandfather. If If he sees the dead body, he will definitely go crazy.” I cried and said, “It’s hard to distinguish faces! How did you suffer?” He said, “I think so too. We absolutely can’t let him know right now.” Before it was time for dinner, I received confirmation that the body must be green.The little hope I had forced upon myself was utterly shattered.After Yinzhen pondered for a while, he ordered the body to be collected and a good place to be buried.They also sent people to search for people who pretended to be relatives to identify the corpse, and made up stories to let the fishermen along the river know that the clothes must be perfect. I sat on the couch in the back room and listened dumbly, my heart was full of sadness, Lord Thirteen, are you still looking around?Is it right or wrong for us to do this?
