Secrets of Yuqing Palace

After Geerletana bowed to Kangxi again obediently, she returned to the side of Prince Wuerjin Galapu.

Kangxi looked at Prince Wuerjin Galapu and praised him, "Your Highness has given birth to a good daughter."

"Not only can she sing and dance well, but her demeanor also reveals a generous and cheerful spirit. She is indeed a shining pearl on our prairie."

Gerletana sat at the table of Prince Urjin Galapu. She stretched out her index finger and poked Abu's waist quietly, her eyes full of urging.

Prince Wuerjin Galapu slapped his good-for-nothing daughter's hand away, then looked at the emperor with a smile.

"Tian Khan is overly flattering."

"I've heard that the children of the Heavenly Khan are all exceptionally talented. Recently, I've come to see that their reputation is truly well-deserved!"

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, needs no introduction. He is a man of both civil and military talents. My sons cannot even compare to him."

"Several of these princes are also extremely intelligent, heroic, virtuous, and talented, with noble character."

"I have also heard that the Tenth Prince is kind and benevolent, and his riding and archery skills are also extraordinary, which makes me very envious."

Kangxi was of course happy to hear others praising his son.

He laughed and said, "I have indeed put a lot of thought into educating them well."

"If the prince has any expectations for his children, he must spend more time and effort on them."

Except for Yinreng, the other princes secretly curled their lips after hearing what their Khan-father said.

[You have indeed spent a lot of time and effort on the Crown Prince.]

[But the rest of us brothers are just like you picked us up.]

Prince Wuerjin Galapu smiled and shook his head.

"How can I be as knowledgeable and talented as the Khan, and how can the princes he educated be as outstanding as him?"

"My own son is not good enough, so I would like to ask the Khan to find an excellent son-in-law for my daughter, who is quite capable."

"My daughter, Gerletana, just turned fifteen this year. I've put a lot of thought into finding her a good match."

"However, this girl has longed to live in the capital, so I would like to ask the Khan to find a good marriage for my youngest daughter."

As soon as Prince Wuerjin Galapu finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene fell silent for a moment.

This statement is indeed full of implications, and anyone who is not a fool can understand what the other party means.

He just praised the Tenth Prince and then mentioned the matter of arranging a marriage for his daughter, and also hinted at the capital.

The only princes present who have not yet been married are the Tenth and Thirteenth Princes. It is obvious that she has set her eyes on the Tenth Prince.

The rest of the Mongolian princes looked in the direction of Kangxi and Prince Urjin Galapu with ambiguous expressions.

Some people secretly laughed at Prince Wuerjin Galapu's wishful thinking, some people even wanted to make plans with him, and some people even wanted to send two Mongolian women to the emperor to test his attitude...

Yinreng and Wanyu looked at each other.

Yinzhen looked at Yin beside him with concern, and seeing his heartless look, he glared at him fiercely.

Yin'e was a little confused, "Nine Brother, why are you glaring at me?"

Yinzhen angrily shouted, "The abacus beads are about to fall on your face, and you're still asking me why?!"

"Old Ten, how many times have I reminded you?"

"I told you to stay away from those Mongolian princesses, but you took the initiative to approach them!"

"He always goes out horseback riding and hunting with this princess from the Abagai tribe, and he won't listen to anything I say."

"Is it okay now?!"

"You're being targeted!"

When Yin'e thought of how confidently she danced just now, his heart beat even faster and he scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Brother Jiu, Gerletana is doing well."

Yinzhen was so angry at his words that he almost fumed.

"What's so good about her? She's perfect in every way, except for this one thing about being a Mongolian princess!"

He gritted his teeth and said in a lower voice: "You know Khan Ama's attitude towards Mongolia!"

"Do you think about Fifth Brother?"

"Aren't you afraid that Khan Ama will be angry and appoint you a minor official's daughter as your wife?!"

Yinzhen was very happy because his fifth brother was forced to marry the daughter of a minor official and could not hold his head up among his brothers.

He was worried that Yin'e would suffer the same fate as his fifth brother!

Yin'e was very touched that his ninth brother said this to him. It was obvious that he really cared about him.

However, Yin'e told no one except the Crown Prince and his wife and Emperor Kangxi about the arrangements made by the Imperial Concubine for him.

He also didn't want to involve Yinzhen, so even though he showed it was obvious, he didn't explain the reason to Yinzhen.

He looked at Yinzhen seriously.

"Ninth brother, Khan Ama won't be angry."

"You can rest assured."

Yin'er, who was originally angry and anxious, was stunned.

"Old Ten, tell me honestly, what's going on?"

Yin'e smiled and said, "You'll know later."

"Don't worry, it's not a bad thing for me."

Seeing that Yin'e had no intention of saying anything more, Yin'er looked up at his father, the emperor.

Kangxi did not explicitly reject Prince Wuerjin Galap, but only said that he would choose a good husband for Geerletana.

Prince Urjin Galapu's eyes lit up, while Gerletana became a little anxious.

And Yin'er's frown deepened.

[I wonder what Old Ten is trying to say to him? I also don't know why Khan Ama is so ambiguous.]

After the banquet, it was already very late.

So the next day, Kangxi summoned Yinreng to his imperial tent.

When Yinreng arrived, Kangxi was dealing with an urgent memorial sent from the capital.

Although Prince Zhi and Prince Yong are currently regulating the country in the capital, they cannot make direct decisions on many matters, and important memorials still need to be reviewed and approved by the emperor.

Kangxi said without raising his head.

"Baocheng, yesterday at the banquet, Prince Wuerjin Galapu begged me to find a son-in-law for his little princess. What do you think?"

"And he was praising you brothers in every way he said, and he even mentioned Yin'e in particular."

"Do you think I should do as he wishes?"

Although Yinreng was somewhat puzzled as to why Khan Ama asked this question, out of intuition, he did not directly mention Yin'e's feelings and the imperial concubine's last wish, and even subconsciously made excuses.

"This... a major matter like our brothers marrying wives depends on Khan Ama's opinion."

"I don't understand these twists and turns."

"Even my son's Crown Princess was carefully selected by my Khan-Ama."

"I get along very well with the Crown Princess, so I trust Khan Ama's judgment."

Kangxi first wrote a few words on the memorial with a red brush, then folded the memorial and threw it aside on the one that had already been reviewed.

Then he looked at Yinreng and laughed.

"You and the Crown Princess are destined to be together, not chosen by me."

Yinreng shook his head seriously.

"Although we are destined to be together, if Khan-Ama hadn't taken so much trouble in arranging my marriage, I might not have been destined to be with the Crown Princess."

Kangxi looked at Yinreng, who was looking at him respectfully, and sighed.

"I'm also a little embarrassed about Yin'e."

"He is the son of a noble concubine, and his mother's family is a prominent Manchu family, and he has made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty."

"If I appoint him a Mongolian princess, wouldn't that be unfair to the imperial concubine and also a debt to the Niuhulu clan?"
