Chapter 118: Great wisdom pretends to be foolish to protect glory; Hong Zhou robs the money truck

Fu Heng dismounted and asked someone to take the horse to feed it.

He walked to the table, picked up a handkerchief and wiped his sweat: "How can the prince have time to come here?"

Hong Zhou picked up a bunch of grapes and started eating them, and during the meal he didn't forget to say to him: "I'm free."

Fu Heng chuckled: "I really envy you for having nothing to worry about."

Hong Zhou: "Great wisdom appears foolish, don't you understand?"

Anyone could see that he did it on purpose.

Among so many princes, he was the only one who was doing well. When the third prince Hongshi was deposed, he knew that he could not fight against his fourth brother Hongli who came to power later.

Because his biological mother was of low status, he was adopted by Concubine Xi at an early age, so he had a close relationship with Hongli.

When they were 20 years old, they each published a collection of works and wrote prefaces for each other.

In the preface that Hongzhou wrote to Hongli, he praised his brother's talent very much, saying that although they were of the same age and studied together, he was far inferior to his brother in terms of thought, literary talent and level.

Among the collected works published at that time, Hongzhou's was more than 200 pages long, while Hongli's was more than 500 pages long, twice as much as Hongzhou's.

In the preface, Hong Zhou also said that his brother's poems were comparable to the Book of Songs. In fact, many people who wrote prefaces at that time only praised the book symbolically, and did not use the same lavish words of praise as Hong Zhou.

It can be seen that he consciously elevated Hongli and intended to give in.

Yongzheng noticed this concession and clearly looked up to Hongli, naming him Prince Bao and Hongzhou Prince He.

Don't underestimate these two simple words, they actually have profound meanings. Bao undoubtedly means "treasure" and He means "peace and harmony between the two", so Yongzheng also hopes that the two brothers can value harmony, and it also contains his expectations for Hongzhou, hoping that he can give in.

As it turned out, Hong Zhou did not disappoint him.

At this time, Yongzheng also felt that Hongzhou was less of a worry, because he had always left all the important matters to Hongli, and he had neglected Hongzhou, for which he felt a little guilty.

Later, Yongzheng was worried that Hongli would be wary of Hongzhou after his death, so he wrote a will, which basically said that Hongli must never let Hongzhou down in the future, otherwise he would go against the grace of his ancestors and the teachings of his father.

In order to reassure his father and brother, Hong Zhou always stayed out of the fight for the throne and protected himself.

From then on, he started doing some ridiculous things to make people think that he was a playboy with no ambitions but only special hobbies.

Hongli inherited the previous emperor's suspicion. It is normal for an imperial family to be suspicious. Hongzhou assisted him wholeheartedly, so it is only natural that he deserves the treatment he deserves now.

"Do you have anything else to do? If not, let's go have a drink."

Fu Heng shook his head. Every time he drank, nothing good would happen!

"I'm not going. I don't like drinking as much as you do."

Hong Zhou: "You are already twenty years old now. If you don't love money, wine or beautiful women, then what do you love?"

"You forgot to mention one thing. I don't like to meddle in other people's business." After saying that, he put down his handkerchief and turned to leave. Hong Zhou's voice came from behind him: "Hey, don't go. We can discuss it!"

Fu Heng didn't even turn his head.

Hong Zhou threw down the grapes: "You don't know how to enjoy yourself."

After saying that, he left the palace and went to drink by himself.

In the end, he returned to the palace drunk and did not wake up until noon the next day.

After waking up, he did another extremely ridiculous thing.

Rob a money truck.

Because he found that the Mint's armored car often passed by his mansion, he did something surprising. He robbed the armored car and ordered people to move all the currency on the car to his own house.
