Quick Wear: I was a Favored Concubine in the Qing Dynasty
Chapter 60 Concubine Xi 21
The older Kangxi got, the more suspicious he became. Concubine Yi was afraid that the struggle of several generations of Guo Luoluo's family would be ended by her own son.
Concubine Yi has been living in fear in recent years. In the past few years, she found an excuse to return the apparent power of the palace to the emperor, for fear that Kangxi would suspect her.
Now, relying on the little bit of old friendship with Kangxi, she stays by Kangxi's side and, like Yu Suisui, ignores worldly affairs and lives her life peacefully.
I hope that Kangxi will not implicate Guo Luoluo's family because she is so well-behaved. The Eighth Concubine has nothing to do with her, Guo Luoluo. They may have just shared the same surname hundreds of years ago, but now she is using this surname to make trouble.
The son is a fool, but the Eighth Prince and his wife are a perfect match, like wolves and tigers.
"Sister, what do you think about me finding a study companion for the little princess?" Concubine Yi really liked this little granddaughter, and she gave her more than the princess she raised at her lap.
Yu Suisui didn't say anything. Concubine Yi didn't want her to answer. She just had an idea in her mind and wanted to tell someone.
When the Fourth Princess married far away in Mongolia, although Concubine Yi had some tension with her elder sister, she gave her a generous dowry. Now she likes this little granddaughter, so naturally she thinks about her everywhere.
"I thought of finding a few maids from the Imperial Household Department and asking them to accompany her as she grows up, so that they can know her well in the future." Concubine Yi has long-term ideas. If she has to marry far away in the future, having a few familiar maids to accompany her will be a comfort.
If she stayed in the capital, these little girls would be her helpers.
Yu Suisui just listened and still did not express her opinion. She was thinking about the future of the Ninth Prince and she didn't know whether this little girl would be implicated.
A few days later, Concubine Yi really selected four maids for the little girl, all of whom were thirteen years old. She kept them by her side and called them aunts to raise them well. She really loved this little girl with all her heart.
As for the little girl's biological mother, Zhao Jia, Concubine Yi also remembered to give her some gifts during the New Year. However, this made the Ninth Prince's mansion even more embarrassed.
Concubine Yi often came to Yu Sui's place with her little granddaughter to hang out. In a blink of an eye, it was the 47th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, when the crown prince was deposed.
At night, Kangxi put on a cloak and pulled Yu Suisui out of bed in the middle of the night in the drizzle.
Yu Suisui sat on the bed hugging the quilt, listening to Kangxi's random talk, "You said Yinreng was such a well-behaved child before, thinking about me in everything, how come he became like this when he grew up..."
When talking about the sad part, Kangxi choked up several times and cried, "That little bastard, I am his father, how could he do such a thing!"
"Am I not good to him? Everything is dependent on him. How could that little bastard be blinded? I am his biological father, but he doesn't believe me and goes to believe an outsider!" As he said this, Kangxi's nose felt sore. That was the child he had raised from the size of a palm. How could he not be sad?
Yu Suisui handed a handkerchief to Kangxi. She knew that it was true that Kangxi was sad and upset now, but it was also true that he was sitting on the Diaoyutai while his sons were fighting each other.
These things are difficult to say. One thing that every family with many children has to face is the fight over inheritance. Moreover, the children in Kangxi's family were not born to the same mother, and they were fighting for the supreme throne.
Raising a prince is like raising a Gu. Only the Gu King can ascend to the throne, command the ministers, and rule the world.
Kangxi was sad for a few days. The eldest prince ran into trouble, was deposed and imprisoned in the palace. Yu Suisui knew that the prince was really different in Kangxi's heart, just like the kitten she raised, the one she raised with her own hands, and the kittens born later, she liked the one she raised the most.
The next person to fall into the crossfire was the Eighth Prince, who scolded him for his humble origins, causing Concubine Liang in the palace to fall seriously ill.
In March of the following year, Kangxi reinstated Yinreng as the Crown Prince.
Yu Suisui didn't care about these things. She still took care of her own little piece of land. In her spare time, she chatted with Concubine Yi and played with her little granddaughter.
Concubine Yi was angry and hit the Ninth Prince with a feather duster. That stupid son actually asked her to go back to the palace to see Concubine Liang. She was not a person of high status, so how could she deserve to go and see him?
Concubine Yi knew that the only person in the palace who could be considered a friend was Yu Suisui. Although Yu Suisui had a cold personality, she was definitely a kind person.
Over the years, she and Concubine De had a friendship, but Concubine De became more and more stubborn in recent years, so she didn't interact with her much anymore.
In the past, Concubine De was a decent person. Although she had her own little thoughts, she never harmed anyone. She liked to act nice and clever in front of Kangxi, but all the women in the harem had done the same thing. Instead of focusing their attention on the concubines, they might as well try to please Kangxi.
There will be more and more women in this palace. You win this one, drive away that one, and plot against others, but there will be a new wave of these people coming. Only by pleasing Kangxi can things go well.
Concubine Yi sometimes sighed, because Concubine De really left all her bad side to the Fourth Prince and his family.
"Sister, do you think I should beat Yinqi too?" Concubine Yi was unhappy to see her son. She knew that Liu Jia didn't like her, but she still insisted on asking her to raise a daughter for her.
Pooh!
She was dreaming. Yinqi was too greedy to dare to order her, his own mother, around. His wife was also useless. The two concubines in the mansion were quarreling, but she just closed the courtyard door and ignored everything, letting these concubines do whatever they wanted.
Yu Suisui glanced at her and thought that Concubine Yi had probably already beaten her once and was looking for an opportunity to beat her a second time.
"I don't know what kind of fate I have. One or two of them are disobedient. Yinqi's mansion is a mess, and Yin'er's mansion is not only a mess, but he's also messing around outside." Concubine Yi felt that her sons were here to collect debts. Each of them was a cause for worry.
Yu Suisui listened to Concubine Yi complaining about her son. In fact, it was the Eighth Prince that Concubine Yi hated the most. She always felt that it was the Eighth Prince who led Yinzhen astray. But if Yinzhen didn't have that intention, he wouldn't do these things.
I also heard Concubine Yi talk about the Tenth Prince, "The Tenth Prince is also a worrying person. Before his mother passed away, she specifically asked me to keep an eye on him. All these years, he has been taking care of Guo Luoluo. There are only two sons in the mansion." Guo Luoluo was her niece from the same clan. They were arranged to marry when the Imperial Concubine was alive. No one knew what the Tenth Prince was thinking. He had been taking care of her all these years.
It's not that he didn't go to other people's courtyards, but there were only a few people in his mansion, and most of the children born were from Guo Luoluo, many of whom died young. The only son born to the concubine was sickly, and the son born to Guo Luoluo was the same.
She wanted to send him a few people, but the Tenth Prince blocked her every time. If she had not promised the Imperial Concubine, would she have bothered to go ahead?
Yu Suisui smiled but said nothing. Concubine Yi was actually quite popular in the palace. The reason why she was favored by Emperor Kangxi was not only because of her beauty, but also because of her brains.
Concubine Yi sighed, "Oh, it's so unpleasant to talk about these things. I think it's better to give Yinqi a beating." She was in a bad mood, and her son couldn't expect to have an easy time either.
