The Virtuous Concubine

Chapter 394: Talking about God

There is no need to ask, this should be the meaning. The emperor has even taken action for this idea!

The Fourth Prince almost cried out to the heavens - Prince, oh Prince, your special status as the legitimate son is no longer unique.

As for the restrictions that the Emperor's father might impose on him because of the empress's appointment, Yinzhen said that he had already retreated to this point, and he would be even more ruthless on himself in order for his mother to become the empress!

He went straight to Wen Xian and Yin Zuo and explained the matter to them. Wen Xian and Yin Zuo looked at each other. Wen Xian wanted to speak frankly, so she spoke first: "Fourth brother, are you sure? The emperor only has the prince in his heart, how could he allow anyone to threaten him. Who are the others in these horoscopes?"

The Fourth Prince then told the horoscopes of these people, which covered almost all the high-ranking concubines in the harem so far, even the late Empress Hesheli and Empress Niuhulu. There were also some whose identities were unclear, and it was speculated that they were from side branches of the royal family or other noble ladies.

After hearing this, Wen Xian frowned and said, "It seems that the emperor really has made up his mind, but... I don't know what the people in the Imperial Observatory say? What if the emperor likes someone else, and mother was inserted into it to create confusion, fourth brother, don't be happy for nothing."

Yinzuo smiled and said, "Brother Four asked us to come. I think the Imperial Observatory is waiting for Brother Four to speak and then report back to the Emperor. No matter what Brother Four wants to do, I will only say one thing."

Yinzuo glanced at the person in front of him before continuing, "Do you want to be the queen, mother?"

They have always been thinking about the impact of this matter on themselves and how to push things in a direction that is beneficial to them, but they have never thought about Malu's wishes.

If the mother doesn't want to be the queen, wouldn't all their plans be in vain?

Wen Xian also laughed when he heard this: "You really know how to please. Who of us doesn't know that Mother hates getting up early and is most annoyed by palace affairs? If you say that palace affairs can be partially handled by me and other masters, Mother will definitely not be able to stand the morning and evening visits."

Wen Xian paused for a moment, the smile on his face gradually faded, and he continued, "Moreover, in my opinion, it is in the best interests of Yonghe Palace not to establish anyone as the queen."

When Yinzuo heard Wen Xian say this, he quietly nudged Wen Xian with his elbow, asking her to say less.

What truth are you telling me? Don't you know that Fourth Brother doesn't like to hear it?

Although Yinzuo didn't know the reason, he could feel that his fourth brother seemed to have an obsession with becoming the legitimate son.

The eldest prince had this obsession because Concubine Hui always compared the crown prince with the eldest prince in private. But my mother never said such a thing, so I really don't know what the fourth brother thinks.

Then Yinzuo looked at the Fourth Prince, wanting to say something but stopping himself. The Fourth Prince naturally noticed Yinzuo's gaze, and he racked his brains to think of some reasons to try to convince his smart brother and sister: "It has nothing to do with me. If my mother becomes the Queen, it will also provide more security for our Yonghe Palace. And what woman really doesn't want the honor of being the Queen?"

What about being indifferent to fame and wealth, being as quiet as a chrysanthemum, is all to convince the emperor that he is just like that. But it's not good that his younger brother and sister are too smart, it's really hard to fool them.

Wen Xian disagreed and said, "Don't you know my mother's temper? Fourth brother, don't forget that a tall tree attracts the wind. The position of queen is honorable, but it will also attract countless attacks and calculations."

The Fourth Prince remained silent. He knew that Wen Xian was right, but the desire in his heart was hard to erase.

In the previous life, the crown prince was beaten by all the other princes because of his position as the legitimate son, and it was only because he made mistakes that the emperor father dealt with him. Moreover, after ascending the throne, he did not dare to treat him badly and had to raise him respectfully.

Unlike the Fourth Prince, Yinzuo saw it more clearly and even revealed the secret: "Yes, and the position of the legitimate son may not be that important in the heart of the Emperor. He chose the Crown Prince because he spent much more effort on him than on other princes, which is why he gave the Crown Prince such a lofty meaning to his status as the legitimate son."

This sentence caused a storm in Yinzhen's heart.

The prince's nobility was not because he was a legitimate son, but because the emperor believed that Yinreng was his most proud and favorite son, so he gave him the title of prince, elevating his unique status as a legitimate son to an unparalleled level among other illegitimate princes!

Thinking of this, Yinzhen could not calm down for a long time and directly drove away Yinzuo and Wenxian.

I was so annoyed by Yinzuo that day.

When Wen Xian turned around, he couldn't help but smile at Yin Zuo. You also said that what I said was not nice and that Fourth Brother didn't like it. Look at you!

The harm done by an honest person is much more serious than that done by people like us with a hot temper. Wen Xian left with brisk steps.

The Fourth Prince began to re-examine his long-standing pursuits.

After being poured a bucket of cold water, I realized that being obsessed with the position of the legitimate son might be the wrong direction. The emperor's heart is towards the prince, even if my mother becomes the queen, I may not be able to get the emperor's love and preferential treatment like the prince.

Even the Emperor wanted to make my mother the empress in this life, all for the sake of the crown prince!

Because in this life, the relationship between the prince and his mother is very good.

The Fourth Prince broke out in a cold sweat. What a close call! This also gave him an idea.

He only needs to let the Imperial Observatory answer like this, and everyone in the Yonghe Palace will be in a position where they can attack or defend!

The Imperial Observatory soon received instructions from Yinzhen, and gave positive and negative comments on the horoscopes of several young women who might become the Crown Princess. Then, it characterized the horoscopes of Imperial Concubine Dezhao and the Crown Princess favored by Yinzhen as "both capable of assisting the king and prospering the royal family."

As for directly saying who is suitable for the empress, let the people in the Imperial Observatory practice Tai Chi themselves. In short, there is no direct answer, but the best fate must fall on oneself, not on others.

Sure enough, the answer from the Imperial Observatory made Kangxi extremely satisfied, and he even felt as if he had suddenly realized something.

Malu was able to assist him and gave birth to six children for him. And the princess he liked also had the fate of prospering the royal family and assisting the king!

For a moment, Kangxi was very happy.

In Kangxi's view, Malu's only shortcoming was her birth. The princess he chose was of noble birth and had the same fate as Malu. He was indeed a wise man.

He was filled with joy and anticipation when he thought that in the future the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess he chose would be able to have children and grandchildren around them and live in harmony with each other, and that the Crown Princess would be able to help the Crown Prince just as she had done with Malu.

He seemed to have seen the future prosperity of the royal family and the Crown Prince governing the country in an orderly manner with the assistance of the Crown Princess.
