Chapter 197 Scapegoat

Chapter 197 Siege

Yinzhen nodded slightly and waved his hand to let Dachun retreat. Guangzhou was assassinated. Guangdong Governor Man Pi once reported that the news had been blocked in time. However, the news was extremely disturbing at that time. Not only did the entire Jiangying Street burn, but the sound of muskets continued. It was impossible to completely block the news.

There are constant merchants between the capital and Guangzhou, and it is not surprising that the news has reached the capital. It is just a coincidence that he has only returned to the capital for a few days. The news spreads. When he saw Thirteen yesterday, Yinzhen's brows jumped slightly. Could it be that the Si Si realized that he had been trying to frame and retaliate? [The latest updates are all in search.]

Following this idea, Yinzhen felt the more he felt that the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the possibility was greater. Thirteen knew that the fourth brother had too many things. With the fourth brother's suspicious and suspicious personality, it was natural to put his eyes and ears in the Thirteen Mansion. It seems that yesterday's secret conversation with Thirteen has aroused the fourth brother's alertness. I wonder how he would interfere and stop him from winning over Thirteen. It should be just one of the means, right?

Thinking of this, Yinzhen hurriedly ordered people to prepare sedan chairs and rush to the palace. He had to pick himself out first before saying that he could not leave Kangxi with the impression that he was not strict in control or was not strict in his words. In that case, Kangxi would limit him to a capable minister.

Longkodo came out of Cuiyun Tower and returned to the infantry commander's yamen at Chongwenmen. He hurriedly summoned people and ordered all to go to various restaurants, teahouses, brothels, guild halls, theaters and other public places in the capital, outside the city. Whenever someone was found talking about the assassination of the Fourteenth Master, the person with identity wrote down his name, and those without identity immediately arrested and returned to the yamen for interrogation.

With Longkodo's order, the soldiers of the infantry commanded the yamen rushed out in full swing, causing a considerable uproar inside and outside the capital.

Yinzhen rushed to Jingyun Gate and handed over the sign. Seeing that there was no one around, he smiled and asked the little eunuch on duty, "Who are you seeing now?"

Generally, this kind of thing cannot be asked about, but the 14th Prince is in the limelight now and is generous. Who can be on duty at Jingyun Gate is not a human spirit? Who can offend and who can not offend? He has a account in his heart. When Yinzhen asked, the 14th eunuch looked carefully. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he whispered: "Return to the 14th Master, it is the Fourth Master."

The fourth brother? Yinzhen fell a silver note quietly and then walked away. Why did the fourth brother enter the palace at this time? The news of the assassination spread, and he entered the palace to see Kangxi. This action was so fast. Could it be to stop him from winning over Thirteen?

Soon, the fourth prince Yinzhen walked out with a cold face as usual. When he saw Yinzhen, he showed a smile. Yinzhen naturally had no good feelings for this fourth brother who was determined to kill him. However, in full view of everyone, he still went up to see the ceremony intimately and said with a smile: "The fourth brother's face looks a bit ugly. The weather has changed recently. Fourth brother should take care of his health."

Is his face ugly? Yinzhen wondered, smiled and said in a pun, "It's okay, thank you for your concern. However, the 14th brother has been in Jiangnan for a long time, and I'm afraid I'm not adapting to the climate of the capital, so I have to pay more attention."

"Haha, thank you for your concern," Yinzhen smiled and said, "I went out for two years, and then I realized that the place that is most suitable for the fourteenth is the capital." After saying that, he said, "The Emperor Ama summoned him, and the fourteenth will say goodbye first."

"Please give me the gift, 14th brother." Yinzhen turned around and stared at Yinzhen's back, but he was very confused. The Fourteenth brother shouldn't know that he was sending someone to assassinate him, right? Why did these words exude a sense of provocation? When he met at this time, was the sound of the capital already spreading?

The East Warm Pavilion of the Hall of Health.

After Yinzhen paid tribute, Kangxi gave him a seat as usual. When he sat down, Kangxi said, "Your fourth brother came to my place to plead for Thirteen. I beg me to condemn Thirteen Yinxiang to the navy, so that he could cause trouble in the capital. What do you think?"

The fourth brother pleaded for Thirteen? Yinzhen was shocked. It seemed that the fourth brother really realized that he had won Thirteen. Then he took retreat as an advance and showed kindness to Thirteen first. First, he won the Thirteen good things and prevented Thirteen from betraying him. Second, he weakened Thirteen's gratitude to himself and achieved the effect of differentiating oneself from Thirteen. Third, Kangxi could still leave a impression of benevolence and righteousness in protecting his brothers. It was a good method.

I just don’t know if Kangxi also noticed that he had won over Thirteen? At least the matter of visiting Thirteen Mansion yesterday could not be hidden from Kangxi. Yinzhen quickly weighed and figured out Kangxi’s intentions. If he agreed, would Kangxi have any concerns? Besides, just agree, this favor is all the fourth brother, so it would be better to drag it out.

Thinking of this, Yinzhen bowed and said, "Return to the Emperor Ama, although the Navy has not yet formed an army, it is sooner or later the national economic and technological system. All personnel arrangements are determined by the Emperor Ama's holy heart. How dare I have any objections? However, I only visited the Thirteenth Brother's mansion yesterday. The Thirteenth Brother is not walking smoothly. I have traveled thousands of miles to Shanghai. I am afraid that the Thirteenth Brother's illness will be repeated."

What does the Fourteenth in Laos mean? I don’t want Thirteen to go to the Navy? Kangxi was stunned when he heard this and glanced at Yinzhen. Did he make a wrong judgment? Or did the Fourteenth invade, which aroused the Fourteenth in the Navy? However, it was a good idea to condemn the Thirteenth in the Navy. It could not only allow Thirteen to leave the right and wrong circle of the capital, but also set up a free time in the Navy.

After pondering for a while, Kangxi said, "You have been away from Beijing for a while. At that time, it will be determined by the situation of Thirteen."

"My son respects the holy wishes of Emperor Ama." Yinzhen bowed and replied, and then continued, "My son met Emperor Ama today because he heard the rumors that Emperor Ama was assassinated in Guangzhou in the capital, and heard that the nine-sect admiral Longkodo sent people to investigate it."

Kangxi did not receive any reports on this matter. After hearing this, his expression suddenly became harsh. Although Yinzhen was assassinated, although there was no evidence, it was very likely that he was a tragedy. It was to be spread out, not only a major scandal of the royal family, but also a great irony of his advocacy of "governing the country with filial piety". If he was recorded in history books, his aura of the emperor of the age would be much inferior.

Thinking of the fact that there had been no news about this before, why did Yinzhen get rumors come out as soon as he returns to Beijing? Kangxi stared at Yinzhen quite sternly and said in a deep voice: "Is this news caused by your personal guards?"

"Return to Emperor Ama." Yinzhen replied calmly: "The personal guards who followed me to Guangzhou have all stayed in Shanghai and have not returned to Beijing with me. As soon as I heard this news, my ministers have strictly investigated the personal guards who followed me back to Beijing, and it is not the news that leaked from me.

There are only two possibilities for this news. One is that merchants from Guangzhou to Beijing are catching up on the wind and shadows. The other is that the culprit of planning assassination and taking the opportunity to accuse them."

Kangxi thought for a moment and felt very reasonable. After a while, he said, "There are many people in the capital, and it is probably difficult to stop it just by relying on the infantry camp. What are your good plans?"

"Go back to the emperor, ma." Yinzhen bowed and replied: "My son thought it was better to be evacuated than to be blocked. The rumors of the royal family have always been talked about by idle people in the capital. The more blocked the situation, the easier it is to arouse people's interest. Moreover, this matter has been very disturbing in Guangzhou. It is very difficult to completely block it. It is better to guide it well, so it is the right way."

"Oh, how to guide?" Kangxi suddenly became interested. He has always strictly controlled rumors to achieve the purpose of elimination. Guidance can also eliminate rumors?

Seeing that Kangxi was indeed interested, Yinzhen pondered: "Emperor, the Beijing News is the best tool to guide public opinion. Just find a reasonable reason to divert the attention of the people. As long as the son was assassinated in Guangzhou, it would be possible to introduce a scapegoat that people can accept and reasonable, this matter will naturally be covered up."

When Kangxi heard this, he became more and more interested and said with a smile: "This scapegoat is hard to find. There are many smart people in the world. Once they are exposed, they will backfire."

"When I returned to Emperor Ama, Erchen was forced. In desperation, this idea came up. I hope Emperor Ama would take the lead in the way. I hope Emperor Ama would take the lead in it." Yinzhen looked up at Kangxi and said carefully: "I have done a lot of errands in the past two years, but most of them are related to merchants, but merchants have no strength and no courage. It is a bit far-fetched to be taken by merchants.

However, the most important task of Erchen is to build a long-distance fleet. Once the long-distance fleet is formed, it will inevitably cause some surrounding countries, especially those who are hostile to the Qing Dynasty. It is natural for them to condemn people to assassinate Erchen."

When Kangxi heard this, his brows jumped. This was a bit too much. He pondered slightly before he asked tentatively: "Do you want to blame Japan?"

"The emperor, Ama, is indeed the most ideal scapegoat." After complimenting, Yinzhen said generously, "Since the former Ming Jiangnan was poisoned by Japanese pirates, the people hated Japanese pirates to the core. Since the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, Japan has refused to submit, and has provided much assistance to the remnants of the Southern Ming Dynasty and the Zheng clan, and has a hostile attitude towards our Qing Dynasty."

Kangxi nodded slightly before saying, "Why did this idea come up in a hurry? I see, you have this idea since you built the ocean fleet?"

"My son is very careful and can't escape the holy clerk." Seeing that Kangxi saw through his thoughts, Yinzhen no longer hid it and said with a solemn expression: "The Japanese island country has become aggression. Since the Sui Dynasty, it has repeatedly invaded Korea. Korea is a vassal of the Qing Dynasty, which is directly related to the stability of the Qing Dynasty's Dragon Rise. It must be taken seriously.

In addition, during the Ming Dynasty, Japan still paid tribute. When it came to our Qing Dynasty, although it repeatedly recruited pacification, it turned a blind eye to it and refused to submit. How could it be allowed to let it go? What's more, my son was in Shanghai and heard the sayings of the merchants who traveled to Japan. Japan compiled a kabuki drama "The Battle of the National Family" based on Zheng Chenggong's deeds, which was very popular in Japan.

After a detailed inquiry, I found out that Zheng Chenggong's biological mother, Takawa (the Zheng family genealogy called Weng) was a Japanese. He was born in Japan and was taken back to the mainland at the age of seven. From this, it can be seen that Japanese wolfish ambitions, how can such a clown let him be rampant?"
