Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven
Chapter 58 Palace Lock Heart Jade Yinreng 2
In the 31st year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, the emperor ordered a selection of young women. Soetu's beloved granddaughter, Fengxi, was among the candidates. Her mother, Tong Jia, approached Soetu hoping to find a way to exempt her daughter from the selection.
Tong Jia: "Father, Feng Xi has been pampered by us since she was young, and we raised her to be innocent. This time, the Emperor is selecting wives for the Crown Prince and the other princes. Although our Feng Xi could at least be a prince's wife, Father, the royal court is full of secrets. How could my Feng Xi possibly qualify..." Soetu thought about it and decided that while his granddaughter was beautiful, her innocent nature made her unsuitable for the royal family. It seemed that this old man would have to beg the Emperor to exempt little Feng Xi from the selection...
Feng Xi knew that Yinreng would go to the Royal Temple to burn incense and pray for his deceased aunt today. So she arranged for a carriage to go to the Royal Temple to wait for him early in the morning. After the prince finished burning incense, the host told him: "Your Highness, Miss Hesheli asked me to tell you if you want to know the truth about Empress Hesheli's difficult childbirth. She is waiting for you in the pavilion in the back mountain!"
Yinreng: "How dare you! Abbot, do you know what you are talking about?"
The abbot said, "As a monk, I don't speak nonsense!" The abbot, who had been given a loyalty talisman, left after delivering his message. When Yinreng left the main hall, he asked the eunuch not to follow him. He said he wanted to go out and relax, but the eunuch told him, "Your Highness, I'm worried about you being alone. You'd better take a few guards with you to prevent assassins!"
Yinreng said, "No, this is a royal temple, heavily guarded. Nothing will happen. I just want to be alone!" He then walked to the back of the mountain. Inside the pavilion, Feng Xi sat quietly, her face covered by a white veil, adding a touch of mystery. She was dressed in a cyan Manchu dress, her figure graceful, like a fairy descending to earth.
Her fingers gently plucked the strings, producing a melody of high mountains and flowing water. The sound was so melodious and graceful that it seemed to penetrate the heart, enchanting it. The notes danced in the air, like a clear spring flowing through the mountains, or a breeze blowing through the treetops, bringing a touch of coolness.
Feng Xi's eyes were focused and affectionate, completely immersed in the world of music. Her playing flowed smoothly, without a single pause or hesitation. Every note was filled with emotion, allowing one to sense the deep emotional fluctuations within her.
The scenery surrounding the pavilion also complemented her playing beautifully. Surrounded by verdant hills and shady trees, the breeze rustled the leaves, as if applauding her performance. The rolling hills in the distance merged with the sky, creating a beautiful scene. Yinreng was momentarily captivated by the scene before him. The piano sounded beautiful, the woman was captivating. He applauded.
Yinreng: "Cousin, the sound of the zither has been lingering in my mind for three days."
Feng Xi stopped what she was doing, stood up and saluted: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Yinreng: "Excuse me! I wonder why my cousin wants to see me?"
Feng Xi poured a cup of tea for Yinreng and asked the maid to stand guard outside the pavilion, saying, "Your Highness, I would like to make a deal with you!"
Yinreng took a sip of tea and said, "Oh? I wonder what kind of deal my cousin wants to make with me?"
Feng Xi: "Your Highness, I want the Hesheli clan to be safe and sound for the rest of their lives. Of course, I guarantee that the Hesheli clan will ascend to a high position under Your Highness and sit firmly on the throne. They will withdraw from the center of power in the court."
Yinreng: "The Emperor is in the prime of his life. What my cousin said is truly treasonous!"
Feng Xi smiled and said, "I wonder if the Crown Prince would still be so calm if he knew that my aunt didn't die from childbirth, but was murdered by a conspiracy?"
Yinreng grabbed Feng Xi's hand and asked, "What do you know? How did my mother die?" Feng Xi broke free from the prince's restraints, poured him another cup of tea, and said, "Back then, the emperor married the legitimate daughter of the Hesheli clan as his queen. In order to suppress the arrogance of Khorchin and Oboi, the emperor needed the help of my grandfather, who was a regent, to suppress Oboi's arrogance and marry my aunt. After Oboi was eliminated, the emperor and the queen mother feared that the Hesheli clan would become too powerful, so they jointly poisoned my pregnant aunt. This poison will only cause the mother to continuously provide nutrients to the child. When the child is born after ten months of pregnancy, my aunt will pass away."
Yinreng: "Impossible, it won't happen..."
Feng Xi: "You don't believe it? The Grand Empress Dowager loves you, but it was she who killed your mother all those years ago, just so you don't have a mother, so she can take care of you and be close to you. Your good father loves you, but apart from the position of crown prince, your status is useless to anyone. The entire Yuqing Palace is full of the emperor's people, who are trying to keep an eye on you. There are also other spies who are like a sieve, leaking information everywhere."
Yinreng: "Impossible, the Emperor loves me very much!"
Feng Xi: "Believe it or not, the Emperor already knows that you came to this back mountain alone today. He will question you. If you even hint that you have any thoughts about the throne, you will be deposed soon. Do you know why the eldest prince is not good to you? The other princes are the same. Because only when you have no one to turn to and no one to help you can he control you and you will listen to him..."
Yinreng's neck turned red with anger and he said, "How dare you!"
Feng Xi stood up and said, "You can check whether you are being monitored by Kangxi, and then consider whether to cooperate with me. If you agree to cooperate, go to the largest treasure house in the capital and tell the shopkeeper whether there is a canary. Someone will notify me and I will come to see you immediately."
