Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Chapter 309 Yinsi's ambition exposed

After hearing what the fortune teller Yinzhi said below, Kangxi, who was on the throne, looked terribly gloomy.

However, Yinzhi did not notice the emperor's father's cold gaze and continued to speak well of his eighth brother Yinsi.

"Khan Father, I know I have no chance of becoming the crown prince."

"But the fortune teller predicted that my eighth brother would become a noble in the future. He is already a prince, and he will become a noble in the future. This shows that he has the appearance of a wise and virtuous man."

As Yinsi listened to his elder brother's desperate advice to him, his heart seemed to stop beating. He looked at his elder brother's mouth opening and closing in horror.

Although this was said by the eldest brother, what he is most worried about now is that Khan Ama will implicate himself.

So he knelt on the ground in panic.

"Khan, my father, I know for sure that I have no such intention."

"The fortune teller that Big Brother mentioned is just the nonsense of a charlatan. Don't take it seriously."

Yinzhi frowned in dissatisfaction, extremely disappointed with the Eighth Brother's actions.

"Old Eight!"

"That Taoist has an air of immortality and is said to be from the Maoshan Sect. Plus, his words are true, so how could he be a charlatan?"

Yinsi was about to collapse.

At this moment, he didn't know whether his elder brother wanted to help him or drag him into the water.

"Big brother!"

"My younger brother has absolutely no intention of competing for the throne, so please don't say anything."

"Besides, Zhang Mingde is greedy and lustful. He is definitely not a real fortune teller. Don't be fooled, brother."

Seeing that Yinzhi was still trying to refute him, Yinsi was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.

He did not argue with Yinzhi, but kowtowed to the gloomy-faced Khan Ama and apologized.

"Khan Ama, my son has always believed that this person is a charlatan, so after he spoke nonsense, he directly drove him away."

"My son has absolutely no intention of competing for the throne, Khan Ama, please understand."

Kangxi looked at his two most active sons below. There was no kindness in his eyes, only deep vigilance and precautions in his heart.

He said coldly, "Since Lao Ba thinks that Zhang Mingde is just a charlatan, then point out his whereabouts and hand him over to the Ministry of Justice for investigation!"

Minister of Justice Tong Jia Qi Shiwu immediately stepped forward to receive the order.

It is worth mentioning that Qi Shiwu is on the prince's side.

It is conceivable how disadvantageous it would be for Yinsi to have the case investigated by the Minister of Punishment.

However, through this incident, it can also be seen that the emperor is very dissatisfied with Prince Zhi and the Eighth Prince, especially the fortune teller's prediction, which touched the emperor's sensitive nerves.

Yinsi knelt on the ground and closed his eyes tightly.

I prayed silently in my heart that Zhang Mingde had better shut up and not say anything he shouldn’t say!

When Yinreng, who was detained in Xian'an Palace, heard what happened in the court, a glint of gloating flashed in his eyes.

He even chatted leisurely with his young wife in high spirits.

"Hahaha... Boss is putting Yinsi directly on the spot."

"The eldest brother has completely exposed the Eighth Brother's evil ambitions."

"Once Khan Ama sets his sights on me, my life won't be so easy."

"Who do you think will be the next one, Xiaoyuer?"

Wanyu saw his gloating look and shook her head in amusement.

Then he said uncertainly, "I think there shouldn't be any more."

She didn't know much about Qing Dynasty history to begin with, and there were many differences now.

As far as she knew, in the battle for the throne among the nine princes, the ones with the strongest ambitions, besides the crown prince, were actually Yinzhi, Yinsi and Yinzhen.

The rest of them were just accomplices.

Yinzhen has not shown any intention of competing for the throne so far. He follows Yinreng very diligently and has great faith in his second brother, the Crown Prince.

So in her opinion, there were only two people: Yinzhen and Yinsi.

Yinreng said meaningfully, "There is more, but it is just hidden too deeply."

"Khan Ama has now openly brought up the matter of re-establishing a crown prince in the court. I'm afraid this has already aroused the ambitions of many people."

"Now we just have to see who else can't help but show up."

In fact, Yinreng had already guessed it in his heart, but he didn't say much.

The more chaotic the previous dynasty is, the more beneficial it is to him.

"But those people are also stupid, or they are too eager for the position of Gu."

"Khan Amma throws out a small bait, and they bite."

"My position as crown prince has not been abolished yet."

Khan Ama wanted to know which brothers had ambitions, and then instigate those brothers to restrain him.

But he also wanted to let Khan Ama know that his sons were not all people without desires.

Before, he had always been a well-behaved subject, but he had suppressed his brothers.

Now that Khan Ama has shaken his position as the crown prince, he will let Khan Ama see how many people are still eyeing his throne without his suppression!

[Just because I'm alone, Khan Ama is so afraid of me.]

If there were more people, I'm afraid Khan Ama wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

Yinreng was in a very happy mood at this time.

He no longer paid attention to the affairs of the court, but instead took his Crown Princess to recite poems and compose essays, brew tea and play music together.

Occasionally, when he was in the mood, he would pull the Crown Princess aside and enthusiastically want to draw her eyebrows and tie her hair.

Although the couple was detained in Xian'an Palace, they were extremely comfortable and relaxed.

Sometimes the Empress Dowager would arrange for Aunt Ulan to send her two daughters to Xian'an Palace to meet their father and mother.

Folgochun and Fuling'a were originally very worried about their father and mother's situation.

As a result, after entering Xian'an Palace, he saw that his father and mother were not affected at all, but were living a very comfortable life.

The two of them finally let go of their worries.

Then he relayed what his father and mother had instructed him to do to his eldest brother Feng Sheng'e and second brother Hongye.

Since then, the masters of Yuqing Palace have completely fallen silent.

Yinreng only occasionally listened to what the informant passed on about the affairs in the court.

Besides spending their days leisurely, he and the Crown Princess are also preparing for their eldest son's marriage.

Yinreng attached great importance to his eldest son.

This is also his most beloved child.

He had already made up his mind that even if Khan Ama would be more wary of him in the future, he would still arrange a powerful wife for his son.

In fact, he was not very sure about his future.

Compared to his uncertain future, he felt it would be better to focus on the present.

Only with a strong wife and family can Hongxi better protect him in the future!

Just like the current Old Ten.

Protected by the powerful maternal and wife's families, no matter who becomes the emperor, the Tenth Prince can live a good life comfortably, and even his title cannot be lowered.

If he fails to reach that position in the future, it will be extremely dangerous for his eldest son Hongxi.

Only if his son is protected by a powerful wife's family can he live well.

Even if the future may be hopeless, being alive is better than anything else.
