Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven
Chapter 197: Step by Step, Yin Zhen 11
The next day, the sun shone brightly, the breeze breezing softly. A lively horse racing and hunting event took place on the grasslands. Yinzhen and the other princes joined in, thoroughly enjoying the beauty of the grasslands and the thrill of the hunt. Among the crowd, Minmin, the daughter of the Mongolian prince, stood out. Her beauty and cheerful personality captivated many. Hoping to win the favor of the Mongolian prince and marry Minmin, the crown prince displayed his affectionate attention, attempting to win her heart.
Feng Xi saw the Crown Prince's actions and had a sinister thought. If she didn't warn the Crown Prince, Kangxi's suspicions would flare up, and the Crown Prince would be in trouble. So, she hatched a plan. She pretended to have a stomachache and screamed for help. The palace maids panicked and gathered around. Seeing this, the Crown Prince hurried forward, carried Feng Xi into the tent, and quickly sent for Fourteenth and the imperial physician.
In the tent, Feng Xi softly said, "Cousin, if you still want that position, don't do too much. No prince can surpass you because you are the crown prince. There is no need to do things that win over the ministers, otherwise the emperor will be the first to disregard you." After hearing this, the crown prince's face changed slightly, as if he realized that his behavior was inappropriate. He looked at Feng Xi, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. Feng Xi continued, "Cousin, you must believe in your status and ability. As long as you do what you should do, the throne will belong to you sooner or later. But if you are too eager, it may cause the emperor to be disgusted. So, please act with caution." The crown prince was silent for a moment, and finally nodded to show that he understood. Watching the arrival of the imperial physician, the crown prince left the tent.
On the way back, the Crown Prince kept thinking about what he had just heard. He trusted this cousin because she was his mother's cousin, and the Hesheli clan would never harm him. Thinking of his recent actions, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He then hastily sent a gift to Princess Minmin to express his apology for his recent behavior. Then, he went to Emperor Kangxi's tent and frankly admitted his recent mistakes.
After listening to this, Emperor Kangxi first reprimanded him severely, but then felt relieved because he knew that his son's heart was still with him.
After the imperial physician's diagnosis, he said that the fetal movement had caused uterine contractions, and that the baby might be due in the next few days. Yin Zhen hurried back to the tent from the front when he heard the servants report that Feng Xi had a stomachache. As soon as he walked in, he saw Feng Xi leisurely eating fruit, and he felt a little relieved. He asked, "Are you okay?"
Feng Xi replied with a smile: "It's okay!" Yin Zhen gently touched her belly and said softly: "I will stay with you for the next few days, so that I can feel more at ease!"
Feng Xi smiled and nodded, expressing her understanding. Then, recalling her encounter with the Crown Prince today and the recent reports she'd heard from the servants, she couldn't help but frown. She whispered to Yin Zhen, "I saw the Crown Prince today, and after hearing the servants' recent reports, I feel like someone might have plotted against him. I don't know if it was Eighth Brother or Fourth Brother, but I'm leaning more towards Fourth Brother..." Her voice trailed off, as if lost in thought.
Yinzhen asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"
Feng Xi frowned and said seriously, "I have no evidence, it's just a feeling... Accompany me to meet the Mongolian prince later. I found some prescriptions in a book before, and I want to give them to them. This will promote the relationship between the Qing Dynasty and Mongolia."
Yinzhen nodded, supported Feng Xi and slowly walked towards the Mongolian prince's tent.
When the Mongolian prince saw them coming, he quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "Why are the Fourteenth Prince and his wife here with me?"
Yinzhen helped Fengxi sit down and said to the Mongolian prince with a smile: "Fujin said she wants to talk to the prince about something..."
The Mongolian prince looked at the Fourteenth Consort in front of him in amazement. Even with her large belly, her beauty was not affected at all. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He said, "I wonder what the Consort wants to see me about?"
Feng Xi pulled out two pieces of paper from her bosom, handed them to the Mongolian prince, and whispered, "This is the method for cutting and processing wool, and the other is a recipe for making various foods from the milk of cows, horses, and sheep."
The Mongolian prince took the paper, looked at it carefully, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He said happily, "I wonder what price the concubine wants to sell the recipe to us Mongolians?"
Feng Xi had a faint smile on her lips and said softly, "Didn't I already give it to the prince? He doesn't need money..." Her eyes fell on the Mongolian prince with a hint of smile.
When the Mongolian prince heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He hurriedly asked, "Is Fu Jin going to give it to us?" His tone was full of disbelief.
Feng Xi nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Yes, the wool and dairy products you process will be purchased by people sent by the Hesheli clan. Don't worry, you won't suffer a loss at the price. I need you to sign a ten-year contract. If there are other recipes in the future, they will be handled in the same way." Her eyes were firm and confident, and she seemed to be full of confidence in this plan.
After hearing this, the Mongolian prince thought about it carefully and felt that this contract would be very beneficial to his tribe, as it could bring stable income and development opportunities. So, he happily agreed and signed this important contract with Feng Xi.
After the signing was completed, the Mongolian prince took out an exquisite jade pendant from his arms, handed it to Feng Xi, and said: "This jade pendant is for your wife. If you need help with anything in the future, just bring it to me and I will definitely help you once!" His eyes flashed with sincerity and gratitude.
Feng Xi took the jade pendant, gently stroking the lines on it, and replied with a smile, "Thank you, Your Highness..." She secretly sighed in her heart, thinking that this cooperation would not only help strengthen the relationship between Mongolia and the Qing Dynasty, but also bring more benefits to her family. Afterwards, she and Yin Zhen left the Mongolian prince's tent together.
In the following days, upon hearing that the Fourteenth Prince and his wife had gifted them such a useful recipe, the leaders of the Mongolian tribes sent their wives to Feng Xi with gifts to express their gratitude. Feng Xi explained that it was a simple task and not a big deal, and presented each of the wives with her own rouge and powder as a return gift, a gesture that won their hearts and affection.
Tonight marks their last night in the Great Wall, and Princess Minmin has decided to present a spectacular dance performance. At the banquet, Emperor Kangxi raves about her dancing, praising her exceptional skills and acknowledging the envy of the Mongolian prince for having such an exceptional daughter. The Mongolian prince responds that Kangxi is equally envious of having a daughter-in-law as capable as Fengxi. Thanks to Fengxi's warning, the Crown Prince avoids Kangxi's dislike, but this ultimately thwarts the Fourth Prince's plans.
On the return journey, everyone was apprehensive, fearing Feng Xi's stomach would suddenly flare up. However, upon arriving in the capital, her stomach remained silent. Only after Yinzhen and Feng Xi returned to Prince Xun's residence did Feng Xi's stomach begin to stir, as if triggered. Upon hearing the news in the palace, Emperor Kangxi exclaimed, "This child's arrival is truly perfect. She's already eager to be born after returning... Immediately summon the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital to ensure the safety of the Fourteenth Consort!" Li Dequan received the order and hurried to the hospital to deliver it.
Meanwhile, Feng Xi endured labor pains throughout the night, finally giving birth to a baby boy the next morning, just as the sun rose. Upon hearing the news, Emperor Kangxi and Consort De were overjoyed and immediately sent numerous gifts. Emperor Kangxi promptly named the baby Hongxu, sparking speculation among the other princes. Later, Emperor Kangxi promoted the Fourteenth Prince to the rank of Prince, citing the fact that the recipe provided by his wife had fostered closer relations between Mongolia and the Qing dynasty, bolstering his loyalty to the Qing.
