Quick travel: the leisurely life of cannon fodder

When Imperial Noble Consort Tong Jia heard Kangxi's words, she ignored the deep meaning behind them and continued, "Yinzhen is weak. The imperial physician has said that he will need to be taken care of in the future and can only be an idle prince. I don't ask for much success in the future for Yinzhen, but only for him to have someone to help him and live a peaceful and smooth life until old age. I understand that the Tong family will not help Yinzhen too much in the future, so I want to find a wife with a good family background for Yinzhen, so that the outside family can help Yinzhen when he needs it."

Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia's words firstly pointed out that Yinzhen was in poor health and it was impossible for him to compete for the throne, so marrying a wife from a high-ranking family would not threaten the prince. Also, the Tong family would not support a sickly man like Yinzhen to ascend to the throne, so no matter what kind of wife Yinzhen found, it would not affect the government. She was really planning for Yinzhen, not calculating anything.

When Kangxi heard this, he understood the deep meaning behind it. Although he was very unhappy that the Tong family dared to despise his son, this was also the fact and he would not pass the throne to anyone else but Yinzhen.

"Look at what my cousin said. Yinzhen is also my child. Of course I hope he lives a good life. I wonder which princess my beloved concubine has taken a fancy to."

At this time, Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia stood up and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I have set my eyes on Princess Heshuo Mingxi. Please, cousin, for the sake of our long-standing friendship and the fact that my cousin will soon die, agree to my request."

Kangxi's hand, which was about to help Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia, stopped in mid-air. He looked at her with calm and deep eyes, and his cold gaze seemed to see through her.

Time seemed to have stopped. Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia's kneeling body was shaking a little. Kangxi said calmly and indifferently, "My beloved, do you know what you are talking about? Heshuo Mingxi Gege? Do you think it's possible?"

When Imperial Noble Consort Tong Jia heard this, she understood. She had predicted this outcome. This marriage was not that easy. So, with tears in her eyes, she pleaded, "Your Majesty, even if it's with Princess Su Mingxi, as long as he is here, no one will dare to bully Yinzhen easily after I leave.

And since Princess He Suo Mingxi is destined to enter the royal family, why can't it be Yinzhen? With Yinzhen's body, it won't involve more, so isn't it the most suitable one?"

After saying this, Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia kowtowed again and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was just talking nonsense at the time and had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of the court."

When Kangxi heard what Imperial Noble Consort Tong Jia said, he was indeed a little moved, but...

Kangxi waved his hand to let Imperial Noble Consort Tong Jia stand up, and said calmly, "I will think about this matter, my beloved concubine, please get up quickly."

Upon hearing this, Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia looked towards Kangxi with gratitude. The two changed the subject and appeared to be quite affectionate on the surface.

After Kangxi returned to the Qianqing Palace, he looked at the memorial in silence, "Liang Jiugong, what do you think about letting Mu Xi marry Yinzhen?"

When Liang Jiugong heard this, he bowed his head and said respectfully, "I am ignorant and don't know how to judge this matter, but if the emperor decides this way, there must be a reason for it."

"You're the only one who can say that! So slippery!"

Kangxi scolded Liang Jiugong with a smile, and went to the palace of Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia the next day to discuss it. In the end, Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia exchanged the position of Queen for Yinzhen's marriage. Kangxi therefore made up his mind to fulfill Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia's deep love for her son.

After Kangxi left, Nanny Lin said distressedly, "Your Highness, you don't have to do this. Why don't you think about yourself?"

Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia smiled and said, "Mammy, it's all worth it."

Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia recalled the dream she had been having half a year ago. She dreamed that after she left, Yinzhen had no one to protect him and was tormented by the bitch Defei. Yinzhen always missed her secretly, and there was no one he could talk to, so he was depressed.

Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia always felt that this was a hint from God to her, telling her to make arrangements for Yinzhen. She thought back to when Yinzhen was a child and not so weak, and when she was sick, little Yinzhen stayed with her all night and always tried to make her happy.

Thinking of this, Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia felt warm in her heart and thought that it was all worth it. She had not enjoyed much from being the Queen, especially now that her cousin was doting on Concubine De, which made her feel sick. It would be better if they were not buried together after death, so that she would not have peace even after death.

Imperial Concubine Tongjia's dreams were all interfered with by the Heavenly Dao, which wanted to twist the plot back. After Yinzhen and Mu Xi got married, the Heavenly Dao would no longer interfere with the operation of the world and would fall into a deep sleep.

When Kangxi returned to the Qianqing Palace, he felt that the matter had almost been agreed to. The old man Fei Yanggu had not yet figured out how to solve the problem. And what about that girl Mu Xi, who would beg him with tears in her eyes when the time came? He was really distressed.

After the court session the next day, Kangxi summoned Fei Yanggu to the Qianqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health and good health!"

"Liang Jiugong, quickly bring a stool over for you. I want to have a good chat with you today."

When Fei Yanggu heard this, he looked at Kangxi strangely.

What's wrong with the emperor today? He is so kind and wants to chat. I haven't caused any trouble recently. Could it be that the emperor is thinking about the health-preserving wine brewed by his daughter for him, so he wants to coax me?

Or maybe he was thinking about the new cakes made by his daughter and wanted to snatch them from him, or maybe he knew that he had brought some snacks prepared by his daughter for him today...

Fei Yanggu thought a lot, his mind was active, his brain was working quickly, and his vigilance was at its highest level.

Sitting on the stool that Liang Jiugong had someone bring over, he asked directly, "Your Majesty, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There is no need for such treatment. Your Majesty knows what kind of person I am. I don't understand those roundabout words."

When Kangxi heard Fei Yanggu's words, he almost broke down. It was rare for him to be nice to this old man, but he didn't even appreciate it!

He laughed and scolded back, "I just saw that you are not young anymore. After standing for so long in the morning court today, I let you sit down and talk. If you get tired, that girl Mu Xi will come and nag me again. She really doesn't know how to appreciate a good person!"

Although Kangxi scolded Fei Yanggu, there was still a smile in his eyes. After all, Fei Yanggu was a loyal minister to Kangxi who was good at marching and fighting and spoke his mind. He had offended many ministers. If one day Fei Yanggu was able to do something other than marching and fighting, Kangxi would really not dare to use Fei Yanggu anymore.
