Chapter 20 The Life of Prince Chun

*This chapter is all the memories of Yi Huan's life, used to pave the way for his death. If you don't like it, friends who are impatient can jump over first~~ Thank you for your support*

"The honor of your Ama in this life is obtained by being a dog, and they are both obtained by being careful, and they are all obtained by abandoning yourself..."

"Ama often teaches you to be moderate, to compromise, and to be careful in being a human being. In this way, wealth can last forever, just like the Taiping Lake next to our house. If it is too full, people should be wary of it and build dikes and prepare for it. When it is space, people think that this broken pond has no energy, to fill it up and bully it. The same is true for being a human being. You are the legitimate descendant, but I did not make you a prince. Don't blame you.

, You are too full. I remember that my emperor, that is, Master Daoguang, wanted to choose one of the princes as the emperor, because of this, he did not choose the Sixth Master or me, but chose the Fourth Brother. Haha, now I am about to see the Fourth Brother. To be honest, I am not afraid of offending him, in terms of talent, he is far inferior to the Sixth Brother. Even if I am the Seventh Prince, I am not as good as my elder brother!" Yihuan's face turned red, and a violent cough destroyed his pride.

Yihuan pushed away the hand that was pounding his back with his wife Nara, panting for a few breaths and continued, "Although Zaifeng is better, he is still a bit arrogant. You should restrain your temperament. Don't blame you, Ama for loving your two younger brothers. I am old and always tend to be younger. Zai Xun and Zai Tao can remind you Ama of your youth. At that time, I played with the fourth, fifth and sixth brothers, and there were two younger brothers below. Zaifeng's temperament is just like the fifth brother, so he jumped too much. The emperor didn't like him very much, so he adopted it. Before the emperor went, he also told me this way, "A man is the best for the doctrine of the mean..."

"Later I grew up, the fourth brother became the emperor, the sixth brother became the prince, I only made a bait, I was like a dog, but I didn't dare to bark, but others looked down on you, Ahma, you did not look down on yourself, no matter how bad you are, it was the blood of the late emperor! A few years later, the fourth brother died, Emperor Yi took over the throne, your life as a bitter puppy came to an end, and finally got the opportunity to be a hunting dog. Your Ahma personally killed Sushun in Chengde and made great contributions. This is the biggest thing you have done in your life. Children, do you think Sushun deserves to die?"

Several children immediately cried and replied, "Of course it should!" But I didn't say anything. Thinking of his words, I felt sad.

Yihuan shook his head and said in tears: "I said no, he is also a good person, but he valued the Han people, and was tough, and offended many people. He shouldn't have offended Lan'er." As he said that, he glanced at the concubine, who cried and said: "Brother Qi, tell me, I know everything."

Yihuan continued, "Lan'er, it's the old Buddha you mentioned, your mother's legitimate sister, and the sister of a mother's compatriot. At that time, she took a fancy to me and wanted to give me wealth. Your mother married into our family, handed me tens of thousands of people in Shanpu Camp to me, and gave me the simple errands to capture Sushun. More than a dozen glamorous tops were worn on my head, and from a small shell to an iron hat prince for several months... Our Qing Dynasty had a less iron hat and an additional iron hat. Do you know why all this?" (Prince Zheng Duanhua and Sushun were arrested in the same case and were banned to death.)

"Laofu said it was because of Ama Zhong!" Zaitao said in a silence.

"By the way, because I am a dog, I'm just a word, loyal! But you, Ama, never dared to forget that you are a dog, nor did you dare to forget the regrets of my emperor, Ama, you dare not be too full, nor did you dare to be too shallow. So, she asked your second brother to go and be a son and an emperor, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that she will guard you when she is full, and she will guard you, and the great wealth is over. So you, Ama, pushed down all the tops and dared not let her guard against me. I thought she would not bully me if she was thinking about the old love. At first, she thought that she was right, but..."

Another violent cough interrupted him. I rubbed his back with red eyes and said, "Ama, stop talking, let's take a break. It will be fine. The imperial doctor cannot do it. Let's look for foreigners!" I thought to myself, maybe the foreign doctor will really cure him.

Yihuan panted and shook his hand and said, "Good Emperor, my good son, no need, I know I can't do it anymore. Do you know? Do you know why I have to kneel down to you recently? Speaking of Miejue Tianlun, Ama's mother kneels down to her son, hey, haha... Actually, I'm not kneeling on you, I'm kneeling on Lan'er, I'm asking her, everything depends on my face...", turned around and looked at Nara, with deep begging in her eyes: "After I leave, the emperor will depend on you, your sister...ah."

"Yes, Brother Qi, I can..." Nara cried.

"Well, then... I feel relieved. Maybe she will be thinking about a sisterly relationship... Hey, hey, what love has she thought about? I have been a dog for her whole life and a loyal dog for her whole life. In the end, she can't even protect her son."

I wondered, what's wrong? It seems that I'm in danger when he meant it was because I was in danger. It's unreasonable. The constant outbreak of the conflict between Cixi and Guangxu was about to come after the Reform of 1898. Why is it now?

Maybe seeing the suspicion on my face, Yihuan looked at me and said, "Emperor, you are twenty-one this year, right?" I nodded, Yihuan continued, "In the words of the Han people, our emperor is in full swing, so how can someone in his twenties come to adopt his son... Our Lord Buddha is about to issue an imperial edict, haha, hey, Zaiyi, you bastard, you have to make more effort. It's almost time. This bastard is addicted to adoption, but he is not enough to be an adoptive species, but his son is also willing to enjoy that. This bastard, do you imagine me like this!"

Yihuan was excited when she said, her face flushed and she kept breathing. I quickly asked Liu Jia for lotus seed soup and fed him a few sips. I comforted him, "Ama, please feel at ease, the child will be careful."

Yihuan gasped and said, "I can't rest assured. Yiliu, Zaiyi, these people have already caught up with Lao Liu and me. Once I die, Lao Liu is almost there. The two old people have gone. These people in the royal family are talking, Ronglu, Gangyi, Chongli, these people have also been moving around recently, and they are about to be useful. When the adoption of the person named Pu Jun is given to you, someone will definitely submit a letter to abdicate. What is her thought? After the loyal dogs of the past few decades, they will be able to smell it long ago... Alas, I hate me, why do I hate me for being a dog? It's fine, but I even pricked my own dog paws and teeth... Hey, now I have no strength to resist now, I know I regret it, it's too late, it's too late..."

I felt a stern in my heart. It was true that when the Gongchun family died, the other princes were the other princes who dared not speak much. It was not a matter of one word that Cixi wanted to depose and establish her? Fortunately, I was prepared and had already started to deal with her and her fellow disciples... Fortunately...

Zai Bing's face turned red. Seeing the sadness his father said, he was also sad, so he blurted out: "Ama, it's okay!"

I looked at Zai Bing and wanted to stop him. How could I tell you such a thing? Although they are all family members, there are women and children. If they are coaxed out, they will be finished.

Fortunately, Zai Ting was about to speak, but Xiao Dezi suddenly shouted outside: "Report to the emperor! Empress Dowager Yi is here! Please ask the emperor, Prince Chun to accept the emperor!"

What! You still need Prince Chun to take over? Do you want him to die?

I finally knew why Cixi was behind me, and why I wanted me to use the full guard of the emperor! She wanted her uncle to die soon! On this hot day, the person who was dying of illness was kneeling and picking him up!

I finally understood why Zai Ding was always favored within a day. Maybe, is this compensation for her uneasy conscience?

———

Note: Yihuan was very dispossed to Cixi in the end. First, because Yihuan was too restrained, Cixi suspected that he had acted in a lifelong drama and had other plans. Second, because the Summer Palace project led by Yihuan repeatedly happened, and third, because Cixi's mausoleum repair project, Yihuan only reported a budget of 300,000 taels of silver. Cixi was furious and ordered Ronglu to review it. Ronglu replied that it would cost 1.5 million taels. From then on, Cixi suspected that Yihuan had been perfunctory and understood Ronglu's loyalty, and Ronglu was promoted step by step.
