Chapter 79 Who is the biological son?
Chapter 79 Who is the biological son?
Kangxi always worshipped the Empress Dowager in a high esteem, visiting her every morning and evening regardless of rain or shine, deliberately pretending to be a filial son.
The Empress Dowager also kept in mind that she was not her biological mother, so she lived out her days in peace and did not interfere in any matter.
Anyway, the Empress Dowager said she liked whatever Kangxi gave her.
Who wouldn’t like such a considerate stepmother?
Kangxi stayed with the Empress Dowager and chatted about family matters for more than an hour before he took his sons and left.
Now that there was no empress, the princes collectively sent Kangxi back to the Qianqing Palace and then dispersed to find their own mothers.
Yinyu wanted to pay New Year's greetings to his adoptive mother, Concubine De, first, so he ordered someone to send the Eighteenth Prince directly to Concubine Mi.
The Sixteenth Prince’s adoptive mother is Concubine Rong, so he must first go to pay New Year’s greetings to Concubine Rong and then return to Concubine Mi to reunite.
After everything was arranged, the fourth brother discovered that the fourteenth brother had disappeared.
Alas, as the Fourteenth Brother grew older, his dissatisfaction with the Fourth Brother became increasingly apparent.
"This fourteenth brother..." After all, he is his biological brother, so the fourth brother can only mention him briefly.
The conflict between brothers was none of Yinyu's business, so he naturally wouldn't interfere.
When the fourth prince and Yinyou entered the Yonghe Palace side by side, they were greeted by the fourteenth prince's weird cries and the Defei's laughter and scolding.
Hi, this is a real mother and son!
Yinyou deliberately didn't look at the fourth brother's expression, but he guessed that the fourth brother must be feeling bad.
Concubine De had never said a harsh word to the fourth child, let alone scolded him. However, the alienation between mother and son was wider than the Milky Way.
This person is a bit of a jerk!
According to Yinyu's private speculation, if Concubine De got angry and scolded the fourth prince, the fourth prince should be very happy, right?
As the saying goes, beating is love and scolding is care, but for the fourth child, it is a luxury.
After entering the room, the sharp-eyed Yinyou discovered that the Fourteenth Prince was sitting opposite Concubine De, and he was too lazy to even lift his butt.
Yinyou didn't need to turn his head to look at the fourth brother to know that he must be feeling uncomfortable.
Nowadays, discord between brothers is usually caused by parents’ favoritism.
In the Yonghe Palace in front of us, Defei and her two daughters are blood relatives, and Yinyu is just an outsider, so he just needs to consciously play the role of a background board.
After paying respects and congratulating the couple on New Year's Day, Concubine De smiled and gave them two brocade stools.
In the past, Yinyu had never known what it felt like to have a seat here with Concubine De.
So, if you want others to respect you, you must have strength and status.
Before Yinyou could even sit firmly on the throne, the Fourteenth Prince started to stir up trouble.
"Little Fifteen, Brother Ten has no title yet, what makes you think you can be a noble?"
Yes, the tenth prince, who is of noble birth, is still a figurehead. Why did you get the title of Beizi?
"Fourteenth brother!" The fourth brother wanted to stop his younger brother, lest he commit a big taboo.
It was Kangxi who decided who to award titles to, and no one was allowed to make comments.
"What? You dare to do it but not to take responsibility for it?" The Fourteenth Prince didn't even look at the Fourth Prince, but kept staring at Yinyou and making trouble.
Yinyou didn't want to argue with the Fourteenth Brother at all, and just said lightly: "Fourteenth Brother, go ask Khan Ama." He avoided the meaningless quarrel with a little effort.
"I'm asking you now!" The Fourteenth Prince grabbed Yinyou arrogantly.
At this time, Concubine De, who should have come out to ease the atmosphere, did not say a word.
How could Yinyou not understand? He had been promoted to a higher title and got a good job. He must have offended many people in the palace, right?
Nowadays, even if Yinyou didn't offend anyone, those who were jealous of his rapid rise would still harbor deep hatred for him.
"I really don't know, go ask Khan Ama!" Yinyu said nothing more, but his meaning was very clear. If you have the guts, go and blame Kangxi for being partial. If you don't have the guts, then you can only hold it in!
This was the first time that Yinyou confronted the Fourteenth Prince in front of Concubine De.
However, Yinyou naturally had his own little plans.
Yinyou is still too young. It is definitely not a good thing to suddenly step into the dark and muddy water of the Imperial Household Department!
If Concubine De could exert her influence and get Kangxi to transfer Yinyou to another place to work, he would be more than happy!
Most people in this world are arrogant when they win and discouraged when they lose.
Yinyou knew his position clearly. What Kangxi could not give him, Yongzheng had plenty!
In particular, the matter of his promotion to Beizi had already severely offended the ninth, tenth and fourteenth brothers, not to mention the eldest brother, with whom he had long been an enemy.
Hehe, the hatred value has been completely maxed out!
Perhaps, this is the effect Kangxi wanted?
Interestingly, Yinyu roughly understood Kangxi’s thoughts.
However, Yinyou's thoughts were hidden very deeply and no one could understand them.
The crown prince was still the heir to the throne, but Yinyou had already won over the fourth prince more than ten years in advance. Even if Kangxi had racked his brains, he could not have expected this.
"Mother, don't you care about my fourteenth brother?" The fourth brother could no longer bear it and fired at Concubine De for the first time in history.
Concubine De almost dropped her jaw in shock. The fourth prince actually deliberately suppressed his own younger brother for the sake of an outsider. Is he crazy?
To be honest, at this moment, Yinyu really felt the fourth brother's deep love and care for him.
"It's New Year's Day, and you're causing such a mess. How can we live like this?" The well-mannered Concubine De was also irritated, and simply ordered them to leave. "Kneel down!"
Coming out of Yonghe Palace, the silent Fourth Elder suddenly turned his head to look at Yinyu and said in a muffled voice, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you!"
Yinyu knew that the fourth brother was upset, so he smiled and comforted him: "Fourth brother, everything else is just a passing cloud. As long as you continue to love me, I will be satisfied."
The fourth brother looked at Yinyu deeply, then suddenly grabbed his arm, patted his hand, and said, "I will never let you down!"
The fourth brother is a guy who seriously lacks family affection. What he means is that as long as Yinyou does not let him down, he will never let Yinyou down.
When others said this, Yinyou just thought it was just a way to vent his anger.
However, the promise made by the fourth brother is highly credible!
The Thirteenth and Sixteenth Princes, the two good brothers of the Fourth Prince, were hereditary princes who walked sideways during the Yongzheng Dynasty.
The fourth prince went to the crown prince, and since it was inconvenient for Yinyou to go with him, he went straight to the Yangxin Palace.
The political center of the Kangxi Dynasty has always been the Qianqing Palace, and the Yangxin Hall was only the location of the Internal Workshop.
On the way to the Yangxin Palace, the eunuchs and palace maids who were unable to escape all knelt upright facing the towering red wall, with their backs to Yinyou.
In the Qing Palace, strict rules are more important than anything else!
As a prince, Yinyou didn't have the courage to chat with the palace maids.
If by chance, the palace maid's belly gets big, then it would be like yellow mud falling into her crotch, which would be shit anyway.
Some romance novels actually write about the beautiful love story of a palace maid encountering Lao Ba.
Haha, the passionate love has not even begun, and the unfortunate palace maid has already been decisively dealt with by the Ministry of Punishment.
You have to know that the reason why Concubine De and Concubine Liang were seen by Kangxi was because they were important figures in the palace and it was deliberately arranged.
Especially Concubine De, at that time, she was just an insignificant little palace maid.
If it weren't for Concubine Tong Jia's instruction, she wouldn't have dared to seduce Kangxi even if she had eight thousand guts.
Defei really disliked the fourth prince. According to Yinyou's private speculation, this might have something to do with the fourth prince's adoptive mother, Concubine Tong Jia, right?
