Chapter 314 The Prince's Turnaround

Capital City, Chongwenmen, and the infantry commander's yamen.

Crown Prince Yinreng sat in the signing room with a gloomy face. After half a day of entering Beijing, there was no good news, but the bad news was endless. He felt like the whole capital was like a huge trap. He couldn't help but frown and think, whose layout of the capital came from? The two princes sitting in the banner are Lao Wu, Lao Jiu, Lao Wu is kind and never participated in the competition for the crown prince. Although Lao Jiu is insidious, he does not seem to have such ability. Otherwise, why is the current situation of the Bayi Party in the Bayi Party? [The latest updates are all in search.]

The ministers who stayed in the study room were Xiao Yongzao and Zhang Penghong. The two belonged to the Eighth Party and the Fourteenth Party. These two were both literary and military, so it was possible to join forces. Could it be that the Eighth and the Fourteenth Party had already joined forces secretly? That was really concerning.

Just as he was sad, the guard Suo Antai walked in quickly. After saluting, he wanted to speak but stopped. Yinreng smiled indifferently and said, "I have heard enough bad news today, so it's okay to have one more thing, just say it."

Suo Antai bowed and said, "Reported to the Crown Prince, the three flags and three thousand soldiers of the Interior Department control the Jingyun Gate, Longzong Gate, Shunzhen Gate, Shenwu Gate and other key places in the palace. The slave went to negotiate with He Yi, the chief supervisor of the Interior Department, and He Yi flatly refused."

"Yeah?" Yinreng browed. How could he live in the palace with confidence without changing defenses? He Yi, the head of the Interior Office, knew very well. He had always seen Kangxi. He was extremely cold and difficult to deal with. After pondering for a moment, he asked in a deep voice: "What did he say?"

After hesitating for a while, So Antai said: "He said there is no exact news from the emperor, and he will not consider changing defense."

"Bastard!" Yinreng murmured in a low voice, and then he remained silent. The three flags of the Interior Ministry have 7,000 soldiers and horses in the capital, all of which are made up of the three flags. These soldiers and horses are very difficult to buy. If they are hard, they can only force them to rebel. Now he has very few soldiers and horses, but he cannot afford to lose money. Besides, although the Three Flags of the Interior Ministry cannot be used by him, they can at least help protect the palace and Changchun Garden and save a lot of troops for him. After pondering for a while, he said, "Go and tell He Yi, just give up Jingyun Gate, otherwise how can I go back to Yuqing Palace?"

"Zhe. I'll go now." So Antai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed and left.

Yinreng was extremely bored. All his consorts were transferred out of the city, and no one left behind was left for him. The inventory of gunpowder was destroyed. Even the craftsmen in the gunpowder workshop were taken away, and the cannons on the city walls were all decorated. The three flags of the Internal Affairs Office could not be mobilized, and there were tens of thousands of troops outside the city who were looking at Dandan. It was really difficult for internal and external affairs to be trapped.

Just as he was having a headache, he heard the personal guard report outside the door: "Report to the prince, Wang Shu, Wang Zhongtang has arrived."

Wang Fei was also an old minister of Kangxi. He was a senior minister and a minister of the study room. He served as the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of War, and the Minister of Rites. He once taught Yinreng. He was the old prince. When the party heard that he was coming, Yinreng was happy and immediately stood up to greet him.

Wang Yu was already 67 years old, but he was healthy and energetic. He was extremely dissatisfied with the prince's mutiny. Although he knew that the prince was forced to do so, this move was tantamount to usurping the throne. Even if he succeeded, he would be criticized. He would also be implicated. When he came this time, he tried his best to persuade the prince to release the hostages and recover a little influence.

Seeing Yinreng coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "The prince is the queen, please give me the crown prince." Yinreng hurriedly stepped forward and held him in a stand, saying, "The algae don't have to be too polite."

The two entered the room and sat down. Wang Shu said, "Three thousand navy troops went north alone. I think the emperor is already a guest of honor for Long Yu. If the prince waits for a few more days, the situation may be very different."

Psychological! Yinreng cursed secretly, but his face looked like regret was too late. He pondered for a moment and said, "It's time to regret it. Now it's an arrow on the string and has to be fired. The current situation is unstable, and all the ministers and relatives of the royal family cannot always be detained. What suggestions does Zaoru have?"

"Strictly control the inner city, temporarily close the city gates, and release a group of princes and ministers." Wang Shu pondered: "The first priority of the prince is to attract people's hearts and prepare for ascending the throne. In fact, many ministers have expected that the emperor has passed away. Once the navy arrives in the capital, more people will believe this. If the detention is not popular, the ministers are not convenient to lobby, and it will cause a tense atmosphere for no reason."

When Wang Yu took the initiative to help him attract people's hearts, Yinreng was overjoyed. Wang Yu had held important positions and had many old friends. With him mediated, he would definitely be able to bring in many ministers, close the city gate, and release the ministers and relatives. It was just a larger scope of detention, and he did not worry about what tricks they could do. He nodded immediately and said, "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

When Wang Fei saw the prince agreeing, he was also very happy and said, "In the past two days, the prince should take some time to visit some ministers' residences to soothe and attract people's hearts."

Yinreng nodded and said, "It should be like this."

After seeing off Wang Huang, Yinreng was in a better mood. If he could successfully recruit half of the ministers and relatives, not half of them. As long as there were 30%, he would be able to ascend the throne. Once he was at the extreme, what could he do?

Just as he was about to be proud, he heard from his personal guards: "Report to the prince, Zhu Tianbao is looking for a meeting outside."

Zhu Tianbao! Yinreng was happy, why did he come so quickly? In order to protect Zhu Tianbao, he specially asked someone to arrange for him to be released from office. He hurriedly said, "Call in!"

As soon as Zhu Tianbao came in, he worshiped him, "Slave Zhu Tianbao greeted the prince."

Seeing Zhu Tianbao looking dusty, Yinreng felt a little excited and said, "Jiu Ru doesn't have to be too polite, where are you from?"

Zhu Tianbao stood up and said, "The magistrate of Changping Prefecture, who was released from slavery, is not far from the capital. When he heard that there was a change in Tianjin, he immediately rushed back."

"Come on, come and serve tea." Yinreng ordered, and then said, "The Nine Tathagata is right. I am now in trouble with internal and external affairs, and I am short of staff." As he said that, he explained the current situation in detail.

After listening intently, Zhu Tianbao said silently for a while: "What do they intend to arrange this in the capital?"

"Of course, it's to prevent me from ascending the throne." Yinreng said disdainfully.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Tianbao said: "This should be just one of the purposes."

"There are other purposes?" Yinreng was slightly surprised and stared at him and asked.

"The Prince is a mystery to the authorities." Zhu Tianbao said in a deep voice: "The best way to prevent the Prince from ascending the throne is to keep the Prince out of the city, and they have enough soldiers and Cai Zi to enter the capital.

"It may not be true. I have many ministers and clan relatives in my hand." Yinreng said disrespectfully: "If they block my entry into the city, killing a group of clan relatives is enough to make the inner city turmoil. Which clan mansion does not have hundreds of servants, who would be willing to watch his master be killed at the city gate?"
