Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Yinreng smiled and touched the young lady's belly, speaking softly.

"It was Amma who said the wrong thing."

"Whether you are a little prince or a little princess, Ama likes you."

"They are all my dear children and sweethearts."

Wanyu smiled sweetly and said, "The amusement park we prepared for the children is almost finished."

"When the baby comes out, shall we play with him?"

Yinreng nodded expectantly, "Okay."

He promised earnestly, "Xiao Yu'er, I will be a qualified husband and father."

"I will take good care of you and our children. No one can bully them."

"No one can do it!"

Wanyu kissed him on the forehead.

"Well, Baocheng is already a good husband."

"I believe Baocheng will also be a good father."

"I will be a good mother too."

Yinreng's eyes lit up.

Wanyu placed his hand on her abdomen and said expectantly.

"In a few months, our child will be able to come out and meet us."

"We have to hurry up and come up with a good name for him."

"Baocheng, you are my father, so you should think about it carefully."

The corners of Yinreng's lips curled up slightly.

"it is good."

Then he said with some regret: "If it's a little princess, it's okay for us to name it ourselves."

"After all, Khan Ama didn't care about the names of the eldest brother's four princesses."

"But if it's a young prince, the eldest grandson of Khan Ama, he might have to get involved."

"We still don't know what generation name their generation is. We have to see what Khan Ama means."

Wanyu smiled and said, "Then whether it's a princess or a little prince, let's think of a nickname for them first."

"Khan Ama wouldn't even let us choose a nickname, would he?"

Yinreng's eyes lit up, "Okay!"

"We have more than a dozen brothers, and our Khan and Ama all have Chinese names."

"I want to give our child a full name, is that okay?"

Wanyu smiled and nodded seriously.

"Of course."

With Wanyu's comfort and the distraction of choosing a nickname for the child, Yinreng's mood finally improved a lot.

He also told Wanyu the reason why she was unhappy today.

It turned out that the emperor had already found out who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes a few days ago.

But he has been weighing and worrying.

He had to consider the children they were carrying, the influence of the forces behind them on the court, and the fact that they had been with him for many years, so he had to show some mercy and not be too heartless.

They were all within his considerations, but he did not think of Yinreng, the victim, nor did he think of the Crown Princess and the child in her womb.

Yinreng felt as if his heart had been suddenly thrown into the freezing cold seabed, with no warmth to offer.

And this person is Khan Ama, whom he admires, trusts and respects the most.

Wanyu pursed her lips and said calmly, "Is Khan Ama planning to let them go?"

Yinreng said mockingly, "I gave him quite a few rewards as compensation."

"As for the punishment, Khan Ama said it's the end of the year now and it's difficult to impose any punishment."

"He's planning to personally lead the charge against Galdan next year, so it's not a good idea to unsettle people right now."

Wanyu was also unhappy at this time. She said with anger and heartache: "Who cares about those rewards!"

"Is there no punishment at all?"

Yinreng sneered, "Why isn't there any punishment at all?!"

"I've already told him that they were able to stir up so much trouble right under his nose, and they'll definitely cause even bigger trouble once he leads the army in person. I told him to think it over, and only then did he change his mind."

At this time, Yinreng couldn't even call him Khan Ama.

Because at this moment he didn't know whether he was the Khan Ama who once loved him.

Wanyu sighed, then asked, "What was the outcome?"

There was a hint of confusion in Yinreng's eyes. After being stunned for a moment, he spoke lightly.

"Princess De will be deposed, and Concubine Hui will also be deposed. After the Spring Festival, all three will be confined to their homes for a year."

Wanyu also found it a bit ironic.

"It's just dethronement and house arrest, no actual punishment at all!"

Yinreng whispered, "It's better to keep them under house arrest for the time being. Now that you are pregnant, you can rest assured and take care of your baby if they are under house arrest."

Wanyu touched her relatively flat belly.

"Ah."

“Our children are the most important.”

Yinreng placed his hand on the hand that was touching her belly.

"Don't worry, there's still a lot of time to go, and we'll get our revenge someday!"

"Ok!"

No one in the palace is a fool.

Rumors in the palace were circulating a lot some time ago.

And the main target was Yuqing Palace.

Now there are no more rumors. The emperor has abolished the titles of Concubine Hui and Concubine De, and even put Concubine Tong under house arrest for one year after the Spring Festival.

Having guessed the truth and feeling that Khan Ama was being biased, Yin and Yin went to Yuqing Palace to visit their pregnant sister-in-law and to show concern for their unborn nephew and niece.

The two were very dissatisfied with the three concubine mothers.

Even when he met the Fourteenth Prince Yinzhen on weekdays, he was unwilling to give him a good face.

The eldest brother is the big brother, and they cannot disrespect their elder brothers, otherwise the old man will deal with them.

As for the fourth prince, anyone with common sense would know that Concubine Uya did not like him, and that it would be worse for him to have no mother at all.

Only the Fourteenth Prince was truly loved by Concubine Uya, and he was also their younger brother.

As the older brothers, they would occasionally scold and tease their younger brother, and others couldn't say anything even if they knew about it.

No matter how naughty and arrogant Yinzhen was, he had no way to deal with his older brother.

You can’t argue or beat them, so you can only bear it yourself.

On the other hand, Yinsi would sometimes act like a good guy when he saw this, and asked Yinlu and Yin? Don’t always bully your younger brother.

This made the two brothers, who had already looked down on Yinsi, now feel a little disgusted with Yinsi.

[Who in the palace doesn't know what's going on? ]

[Why does he need to pretend to be a good guy? ]

[He is usually polite to servants and doesn't have the arrogance of an emperor at all!]

The New Year’s Eve family dinner was coming soon. This year’s New Year’s Eve family dinner was mainly hosted by Concubine Yi and Concubine Rong.

A few days ago, the Left Court Judge found out from the Crown Princess's pulse that she was pregnant, and there were even reports that the fetus was unstable.

Therefore, the Emperor ordered the Crown Princess to rest and take care of her pregnancy in Yuqing Palace.

As for Concubine Nara and Concubine Tong, they had made mistakes and would be confined to their homes for a year after the Spring Festival. Their palace duties were temporarily assigned to Concubine Rong and Concubine Yi.

There have been many major and minor events this year, and the emperor just issued an order a few days ago to send troops to the northwest after the beginning of the year.

Therefore, this year's New Year's palace banquet was held in a very simple and frugal manner.

After the Spring Festival, in the first month of the 35th year of Kangxi's reign, the emperor issued an edict that he would personally lead an expedition against Galdan, and would bring several older princes with him. This immediately caused a shock in the harem.

Those who always make promises worry about their future favor.

How can they compete for favor, get pregnant and ascend to the throne when the emperor is away?

The concubines who had children were worried that something unexpected might happen if the emperor went on the expedition in person.

After all, they are honored only when the emperor is around.

If something happens to the emperor and the prince succeeds to the throne, they will have no choice but to hide away, and even the children will have to carefully serve the new emperor.

This was nothing short of a bolt from the blue for those ambitious concubines.

What is more worrying are the biological mothers of some of the older princes!

She was worried about whether her son would follow the emperor into battle, or whether something unexpected would happen to him on the battlefield.
