In mid-March of the 41st year of Kangxi, the old man returned from a tour of Mount Wutai. After hurriedly dealing with some backlog of government affairs, he personally escorted the Empress Dowager to Rehe in early April. However, this time, the old man no longer took the crown prince Yinreng with him, and accompanied him with a group of great scholars such as Tong Guowei. As for the other princes, they were all stayed in the capital.

After the old man left like this, the princes who had lost Wang Feng were happy to be idle. They all went to their own way. The study room was empty, even the two youngest princes, Lao Fifteen and Lao Fifteen, also slipped away from time to time. Hong Qing was the only one who could hold on to the class every day.

I am eager to learn? There is a little bit, but it will never be much. In fact, Hongqing has never been very convinced of the Confucianism, but this does not affect his attitude of serious study, because he is very clear that if he wants to be prosperous in this era, it is not enough to have money alone, and he still has to have a few academic skills. Now there is so many well-educated people as teachers and teach for free. There is no reason to miss such a good thing. Of course, this is not the fundamental reason why Hongqing is so eager to learn. There is only one real reason, that is, until now, he has not yet been able to gain a foothold in the study room, and it is not yet possible to be at will.

The court seemed calm, at least when the old man was not in the capital, but in fact it was not. Although Hongqing was not sure what the dynamics in the court were, when she saw her father's gloomy face almost every day, there was no need to ask. Hongqing also knew that her father's life was not easy. Even if the prince had been taken away by the old man, the situation did not change much. Hongqing did not dare to leave any handle for people to take care of at this moment. Besides, the other end of the "Qilin Business" is still in the preparation stage, and there is a shopkeeper Chen to take care of him. Hongqing was not worried about anything and just went to school honestly.

Well, why did this guy come?

It was May and the rain was raining. However, Hongqing had never missed classes because of this. She came to the study room early in the morning. However, just as soon as she entered the door, she saw that the old fourteen, who had not shown her face for a long time, was already sitting in it. She was stunned.

"My nephew pays me a blessing to the 14th uncle."

Although he didn't understand the reason why the Fourteenth brother suddenly appeared here, Hongqing did not dare to neglect at all. A bright smile quickly appeared on his face, and he rushed forward and paid a lot of worship.

"I have it, Brother Qing, don't do this, just sit down."

At the greeting of Hongqing, Yinzhen waved his hand carelessly and laughed and scolded in displeasure.

"Thank you for your seat for Uncle Shisi."

Lao Si is an elder, he can do whatever he wants, but Hong Qing didn't dare to be careless, and didn't care how close Lao Si's tone was. After smiling and giving him a full greeting, he sat down.

"I said Brother Qing, you are so unreasonable. If you have a good thing, you won't even say hello to your 14th Uncle. Why don't you think your 14th Uncle can't afford it?"

Although Hong Qing was extremely comprehensive, she obviously had a sense of alienation. Yinzhen was a little unhappy. She rolled her eyes and started to question her in anger.

Well, a good thing? Could it be that the guy is talking about the "Qilin Business"? What is this guy trying to do?

Hongqing had known what kind of person the master in front of her was, and would not be confused by his seemingly careless surface. When she felt moved, her vigilance was already aroused. However, she looked surprised and widened her eyes widened, and spread her hands blankly, saying, "What are the words of the fourteenth uncle? Why are you becoming more and more confused as you listen?"

"Okay, just pretend. The business has started. I don't tell Uncle Fourteen, why are you thinking Uncle Fourteen is poor? Or are you not allowed to let me go?"

Yinzhen came with a purpose, so naturally he would not have been fooled by Hongqing so simply. He glared at him and looked angry, and simply made the words clear.

Haha, this guy is indeed extremely smart. The first sentence is to ambush, but what I want to ask is probably the next sentence!

Hongqing did not hide the "Qilin Trading" incident from many sources. In fact, with his current strength, he had no chance of being able to do it without anyone knowing it. Because of this, he was not surprised that the Eleventh Master was able to find out the "Qilin Trading". After just changing his mind, he had already guessed the purpose of Yinzhen. It was nothing more than trying to find out the details of the Eleventh Master. Although the "Yilin Trading" is small in scale, it is involved. Not only the Eleventh Master, the two young princes, are among them, and there are also the popular prince like Prince Cheng. The Eighth Master Party is not nervous about it. Under the unknown reason, he naturally has to find out about Hongqing, the real master. There is no doubt that Eleventh Master, who has a "friendship" with Hongqing, is naturally the best candidate for the athlete.

"The conscience of heaven and earth, Uncle Fourteen, you are a little nephew who has died unjustly. You can always like a small business of only 3,000 taels? That is, you just have to play with such useless talents as your nephew. If you really want it, just take it all."

After understanding Yinzhen's purpose, the remaining scenes were naturally easier to act, but seeing Hongqing's little face frowned, spread his hands bitterly, and immediately screamed at the sky-bending crouch.

"Hey, Brother Qing, don't be anxious. Uncle Fourteenth is just talking casually. Okay, can't it be better if you don't talk about this?"

Yinzhen was worried about some bad intentions from the third brother. He heard that it was just a few little guys who were making trouble there and would no longer take it to heart. At this moment, seeing Hongqing's generals crying, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, and quickly spoke up and comforted him.

Not to mention it? Hey, you fourteenth, you want to behave yourself when you get a cheaper one, but you don’t even have a chance to do it!

Hongqing has always been a person who is willing to suffer losses. At this moment, he was tortured by the old fourteen for no reason. He didn't know how to get it back quickly. When he moved his mind, he had an idea. His eyes turned slightly and he sighed and said, "Uncle Fourteen, it's not that my nephew is rude. Alas, you can't say this casually. Fortunately, the Emperor Mafa is not in Beijing. If Emperor Mafa knows, the nephew will still survive. Not to mention Emperor Mafa, even the Prince's Highness knows, he doesn't know how many things should happen. Fortunately, Emperor Mafa brought His Royal Highness with him this time, and the nephew can finally escape the disaster."

"It's just a small business for you, let alone the crown prince, even if the emperor and the emperor know, it's just a smile."

The ancestral teachings stipulated that the bannermen could not do business, but in fact, they were in charge of the lower and lower levels. Any of the older princes who did not play business tricks in private? Not to mention others, Yinzhen himself had a small-scale business name. Of course, he was named by others. Therefore, he naturally rudely criticized Hongqing for his concerns.

"Haha, I hope it's like the fourteenth uncle Ji Yan. Ah, by the way, it is said that the Crown Prince became sick when he arrived in Dezhou. Huang Mafa also made a special trip to recruit Soetu and Lord Suo from the capital, saying that he was a escort. My nephew was strange. Lord Suo didn't understand medical skills, so this escort..., Ah, nothing, nothing."

Hongqing pulled it like a joke, but when she pulled it to the end, she seemed to have lost her words and quickly beat her up, trying to cover up her poverty.

"Hmm? You mean..."

As the saying goes, there is no need to be a heavy hammer for a loud drum. Yinzhen was originally a clever person. When Hongqing mentioned it, he instantly thought of a possibility, and his face turned pale.

"My nephew is ignorant, just talk nonsense. Don't take it to heart for the 14th uncle. Haha, it's really heavy today. It's so rainy, it's so rainy."

When he saw that Yinzhen had already been hooked, Hongqing naturally did not intend to get involved in this matter anymore. He laughed and said nothing about the truth.

"Boom..."

At this moment, Yinzhen had no intention of listening to Hongqing's nonsense. His face was gloomy and thought. In a daze, a thunderbolt suddenly exploded. Yinzhen was shocked and stood up suddenly. Without saying hello to Hongqing, he hurried out of the study...
