Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

"Thank you, Eunuch Jinzhong, for your advice."

Jinzhong's face rarely showed any abnormality, but Yongqi's heart was entirely on the emperor, so naturally he didn't notice anything wrong with him.

He stood up, stretched his sore and numb knees slightly, and then walked into the Yangxin Palace.

At this time, the emperor was having lunch, and Concubine Ling was sitting on his left.

Normally, when the emperor eats, the concubines can only stand by and serve him.

But since Yan Wan was made a concubine, she mostly sat down to have meals with the emperor. Now that she was eight months pregnant, it was no exception.

Seeing Yongqi come in, the emperor snorted coldly and turned his face away without looking at him.

"My son, I would like to send my regards to Emperor Ama."

Yongqi was nervous, and seeing the emperor like this, he became even more frightened.

Seeing that the emperor had no intention of asking him to get up, Yan Wan reached out and pushed his arm, signaling that it was time for the emperor to ask him to get up. Only then did they both feel better.

"Get up."

The emperor sighed helplessly, and when he finally spoke, he was very frugal with his words.

From morning till now, he had only said three words to Yongqi.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Yan Wan had to smile and try to smooth things over.

"It's autumn now, and Hubei has lotus roots as tribute. I've been watching the small kitchen and made a black chicken and lotus root soup for Your Majesty. Yongqi, quickly serve a bowl to Your Majesty."

She raised her hand and pointed, and Yongqi knew that she was helping him. He quickly took the small bowl handed to him by Jinzhong, filled it with soup and placed it in front of the emperor.

"Yes... please have dinner, Father Huang."

Two pairs of eyes were vaguely falling on him. The emperor didn't want to offend her in front of the child, so he picked up the food and tasted a few bites.

"Your Majesty, how does it taste?"

"Not bad, but it's still not as good as your craftsmanship."

Yanwan has been learning to cook medicinal food for some years, so her skills are naturally perfect. Since she became pregnant, she has found excuses not to go into the kitchen.

"If Your Majesty likes it, I will wait until the child in my belly is born and I recover, then I will do it for Your Majesty... Does Your Majesty prefer a prince or a princess? If it's a princess, she can keep our Jingxuan company. If it's a prince, Yongqi is very talented, how about letting him learn from you?"

As soon as Yan Wan finished speaking, the emperor couldn't help but snorted coldly.

"Hmph, if they follow his example, do you think all my princes will learn to disobey me? How old are you? Do you act like a brother?"

These words made Yongqi panic. He immediately lifted up his clothes and knelt down in front of him to apologize.

"I am an unfilial son. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Everything is my fault. I will accept your punishment."

He couldn't say anything to defend himself and could only apologize.

Looking at Yongqi like this, the emperor sighed and spoke earnestly.

"Yongqi, you are the most outstanding among my princes. What I want is for you to help me with my country and not get involved in the trivial matters of the harem. Moreover, I am the emperor. What you should do is to follow my wishes, not follow some people to bully others."

The crime of deceiving the emperor is no small matter.

"Your Majesty, you are too serious. These are just trivial matters. How can you say you are bullying your superiors?"

Yan Wan tugged at the emperor's sleeve and advised in a low voice.

"A loving mother often spoils her son. If you want him to be a playboy, you can continue to let him go. But he is a prince, shouldering the responsibility of my country. If I don't treat him strictly, future princes will follow suit. How can my country be stable?"

The emperor frowned. Although he was talking to Yan Wan, he was actually talking to Yongqi.

As a prince, he should naturally put the emperor first in everything.

He took away Ruyi's empress's seal and placed her under house arrest in the Yiku Palace, but he didn't expect that she would still find an opportunity to cause trouble.

What was she thinking about letting her son, a prince, bury a guilty eunuch?

If he had known this would happen, he should not have left Xiao Lingzi's body intact.

The emperor put down his chopsticks, looked at Yongqi and said seriously.

"Yongqi, this is the first time. If you do it again, I will never forgive you."

This is the only chance he gives. If he dares to help Ruyi in the future, he will be her biological son like Twelve.

He would not allow the son of someone he disliked to inherit his throne.

Hearing that the emperor was willing to give her a chance, Yan Wan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded at Yongqi, indicating that he should answer.

"I will remember your teachings, Father. I will be careful with my words and actions in the future and live up to your expectations."

"The autumn hunt is approaching. Go to Mulan Paddock and prepare for it. Prove to me your ability as a prince. If anything goes wrong during the hunt, I will not forgive you."

Looking at Yongqi's appearance, the emperor became a little angry and simply transferred him out of the capital to prevent him from following the same behavior as the Yiku Palace and corrupting his son.

The autumn hunt has always been a major event in the eyes of the Qing emperor over the years. In addition to hunting, there are also Manchu customs such as sacrifices. The full authority was given to Yongqi to handle, which can be said to be very important.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do my best to fulfill your trust and complete the task you have entrusted to me."

"Alright, I'm a little tired today, so you can go back first. You, the Imperial Concubine, will be giving birth soon. For such a small matter, you can just have someone else bring it to me later. You don't have to come here in person."

Although her involvement was somewhat noisy, the emperor was quite satisfied with the outcome today.

This was a warning to her not to get involved again in the future.

Even though she is a beautiful woman with a good conversation, she cannot make all the decisions, after all, she is not the one sitting on the dragon throne.

Avoid putting the cart before the horse or getting carried away.

"The minister and concubine follow the order."

"My son, please retire."

……

The two of them left the Yangxin Palace together. After they were outside the palace, Yongqi bowed to Yanwan to express his gratitude.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for speaking for me today."

Yongqi couldn't help feeling sad when he saw Yanwan's concerned look.

A biological mother and a legitimate adoptive mother could not care about him more than the concubine mother who came out of nowhere.

Well, the incident with Ling Yunche was the last one. He would not help Yikun Palace do those stupid things in the future.

"It's nothing, just some small things. I summoned the imperial physician when I came here. You've been kneeling all morning, so let the imperial physician take a look before you go back. Chunchan, who is by my side, made some cakes. You haven't eaten anything all morning, so it's inevitable that you'll feel dizzy. Fill your stomach first and wait for the imperial physician to examine you before leaving the palace."

Yanwan raised her hand slightly, and Chunchan took out the food box and handed it to the eunuch beside Yongqi.

"Thank you, Madam Ling, for your care. I am deeply grateful. If it weren't for your help today, I'm afraid I would not be able to escape the punishment of the Emperor..."

"I only do this for the Emperor. In the past few years, the Emperor has always been angry with the Empress, and the depression has damaged his liver. You, please don't make the Emperor angry again. They don't even think of a way out for you, so why do you have to work so hard?"

Yan Wan was right. If Yikun Palace really cared about Yongqi, they should stay away from him at this juncture instead of involving him and causing him to be punished by the emperor.

Even though she didn't say anything bad about Yikun Palace, Yongqi understood what she meant.
