Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan
Chapter 178 Crown Princess
In response to the Crown Princess's question, the Crown Prince simply said nonchalantly, "Why don't you just take care of yourself as before?"
The Crown Princess asked with a complicated expression: "Can it really be the same as before?"
The prince was speechless and replied, "What else?"
The Crown Princess observed the Crown Prince and felt that he was different. In the past, the Crown Prince always had his own ideas, but now he was more like a puppet, like a fire that was about to burn out and could go out at any time.
The Crown Princess asked unconsciously, "Then how long can I remain the Crown Princess?"
The prince was surprised at the princess's foresight, but he could only answer softly, "I don't know."
The Crown Princess was not the type to complain all day long. She was only negative for a few moments, and then continued to talk to the Crown Prince about serious matters. "Your Excellency is fine, but the children must be frightened after what happened."
Speaking of the children, the prince couldn't help feeling guilty. These children had lived with him in luxury since childhood and had never suffered any hardship, but were brought to this point by him, their father.
The prince was held in solitary confinement, and had no way of getting any information about his wife and children. The prince was a little worried, "Are any of the children sick?"
The Crown Princess shook her head. "I, Sister Li and the others gathered the children together to take care of them. I heard from the guards that the Prince of Zhi and the Fourth Prince have asked us not to embarrass us."
The prince did not expect that the Prince of Zhi did not take advantage of the situation to add insult to injury, perhaps because he was afraid of being found out by Kangxi. In fact, even asking for the prince to be killed was said, was the eldest prince still afraid of being accused of mistreating the relatives of the deposed prince?
The prince warned the princess, "The eldest brother has been trapped, there is no more Prince Zhi."
Having been isolated from the outside world for several months, the Crown Princess had no source of information. How could she know about the eldest prince's affairs?
The Crown Princess felt that this was both unexpected and reasonable. As the main force against the Crown Prince, if the eldest prince had not fallen, how could the Crown Prince be released? But in just a few months, the eldest prince who arrogantly beat the Crown Prince into the dust that day ended up like this, which still made the Crown Princess dazed for a moment.
The Crown Princess sighed, "It's just a pity for the two little princesses left behind by my eldest sister-in-law. I don't know if they will have a future in the future."
The Crown Princess has only had one daughter in all these years, and she had a good relationship with the deceased First Wife, so naturally she paid more attention to the daughters left behind by the First Wife.
The eldest and second princesses born to the first wife have already married, and the third and fourth princesses are not yet of age, but have to suffer in the dark with the eldest prince. A girl's blooming period is only a few years, and if Kangxi doesn't remember them, her whole life will be gone.
The prince responded, "Maybe this is a good thing. With the current situation of the old family, if she marries to the grassland without the support of her family, it would be better for her to stay in the mansion for the rest of her life."
The Crown Princess suddenly felt a little scared. From the moment she was chosen as the Crown Princess, she knew that she and her family were already tied to the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince could successfully succeed to the throne, everyone would rise to prominence together; if he was deposed, there would be nothing to complain about.
But when talking about the children in the eldest prince's mansion, she thought of her own daughter. This was the only selfish wish of the Crown Princess, who had always been fair and just.
The Crown Princess choked up and said, "If Your Highness..., what will happen to the children?"
The prince didn't even know where to go, how could he arrange for his children? But he was a husband and a father, so how could he not consider these things?
The prince talked about his plan, "I plan to train Hongxi. If he is appreciated by the emperor, even if I fail, the children will not be left without a place to go."
The Crown Princess has no son, so if he really intends to allocate all resources to Hongxi, he still has to talk to the Crown Princess.
The Crown Princess never asked about the affairs of the previous dynasty, and the Crown Prince never discussed the children's future with her. But now, if not the Crown Princess, who else could he tell?
Hongxi was taught very well by Concubine Li, and would come to pay his respects to the Crown Princess from time to time. He was indeed a smart and sensible child.
The Crown Princess hesitated. "Hongxi is indeed smart, but this is the imperial palace after all, and he is facing the emperor. What if it doesn't work out?"
Since the Crown Prince had brought this up, he must be at least 70% to 80% sure. He patiently explained to the Crown Princess, "Hongxi's biggest advantage is that he looks like me and acts like me. As long as the Emperor misses the father-son relationship he had with me, he will treat Hongxi well."
The Crown Princess understood what the Crown Prince meant, but this road would be difficult.
The prince regained his usual proud attitude and said, "Hongxi is my son, would I harm him?"
The Crown Princess also retracted her previous tenderness, "Your Highness is wise and brave, so he will not make mistakes."
It turned out that the palace servants who were sent out by the prince had returned.
The prince impatiently drove the princess away, "Don't you have your own things to do? Why are you still hanging around here?"
The Crown Princess politely took her leave. After leaving the door, the Crown Princess looked back inside and saw the Crown Prince enjoying the service of the new servants serving him tea and water.
The maid standing nearby stepped forward and asked, "Does Your Highness the Crown Princess have anything else to say?"
The Crown Princess suppressed all her expressions and said, "It's quite leisurely."
After that, the Crown Princess was supported by her maidservant and returned to her own courtyard. Kangxi was not very harsh on his daughters-in-law, and most of the palace servants who served in the backyard were sent back.
There was no affection in the first place, and after knowing that the prince had a habit of homosexuality, the princess consort held her daughter in her arms. Fortunately, the prince also knew that he was not liked by the princess consort, so he did not force her to sleep with him.
Just to maintain superficial harmony, the Crown Prince would often stay overnight at the Crown Princess's place, but the two of them would just sleep under the covers.
The prince was unhappy and the princess secretly disliked him. Before falling asleep, he would always quarrel with her. When the princess was in a good mood, she would reply politely, making the prince so angry that he couldn't sleep; when she was in a bad mood, the couple would poke each other in the heart.
You said I was 'unlucky and unlucky in marriage before getting married', and I said 'it's the same for us'.
After bickering for a long time, the prince and the princess actually developed a revolutionary friendship. The prince knew that Kangxi was ignoring him day by day, but he could only keep it to himself and had no one to talk to. In the end, the princess heard everything.
As the reserve of the Queen, the Crown Princess's political qualities are enough for her to analyze the situation through the words of the Crown Prince.
"Hearing what you said, you won't be able to become the crown prince, right?"
"Shi, you and I will rise and fall together, is there any sense in cursing me like this?"
"Who cursed you? I analyzed objectively and felt that you might not be in office for long."
"You can't escape anyway, so let's suffer together!"
