After Yinreng's Thoughts Are Overheard by Kangxi, Father and Son Share a Warm Bond

Ever since Kangxi discovered he could overhear Yinreng's inner thoughts, the father and son duo entered a mode filled with chaos along with a warm and filial relationship.

Yinreng wanted ...

Chapter 11: Confrontation with Concubine Tongjia

"Liang Anda, send someone to restrain this palace maid first, and then tell the emperor about this after the palace banquet. Also, tell the imperial physician Hu to go to Chengqian Palace immediately."

After giving all these instructions, Yinreng swung his sleeves and hummed, "Since the Imperial Concubine is ill, let's go and visit her."

So, Yinreng and others went to Chengqian Palace in a mighty procession, and happened to meet the imperial physician Hu who had just arrived at the palace gate. Then the group walked in with high spirits.

The main hall was brightly lit at this time. As if hearing footsteps, a young palace maid ran out to check the situation. After seeing Yinreng and others clearly, she turned around and was about to run in, but was quickly stopped by Liang Jiugong.

Seeing this, Yinreng's face turned extremely ugly.

Looking at the little palace maid's reaction, I knew there must be something fishy going on in the bedroom.

Sure enough, when Yinreng and others entered, they saw Tong Jia leaning on a soft pillow with a pale face. She did not seem to have any makeup on her face, nor did she have any jewelry on her head, but her skin was smooth and delicate, and she did not have the decadent aura of a seriously ill person at all. Instead, it looked like she had applied too much powder.

Especially the slightly red lips, which make her look delicate and charming, very lovable.

"Ahem"

The few of them did not deliberately lower their footsteps. The palace maids in the room looked over when they heard the sound, but Tong Jia closed her eyes and coughed lightly as if she didn't hear anything.

She was wearing a light red chiffon nightgown, and looking at the exposed sleeves, one could tell that it was the material she had been given as a reward before she was put under house arrest.

"Isn't it time for the palace banquet? I haven't seen Your Majesty for a long time. I wonder how Your Majesty is doing."

Tong Jia spoke without opening her eyes. She coughed twice and continued, "I used to love Your Majesty and only hoped to bear you a son or daughter. But now all my hopes have been dashed. I only hope Your Majesty can stay healthy."

Yinreng couldn't help but sneer when he saw this scene. When he was about to make a sarcastic remark, the silly boss spoke.

"Empress Tongjia, why are you talking with your eyes closed? Are your eyes broken and can't be opened?"

Yinzhen's voice suddenly exploded in the bedroom like a thunder, startling Tong Jia so much that she opened her eyes suddenly. When she saw the four children's meaningful looks, she almost jumped out of bed.

"How...how did you...get in?"

Tong Jia was extremely panicked.

Yinzhen said bewilderedly, "We just walked in. Didn't Empress Tongjia hear the footsteps of so many of us?"

Yinreng was a little unable to hold it in. The second and third princesses had already lowered their heads to hold back their laughter, fearing that they would burst out laughing.

After a moment of panic, Tong Jia finally came to her senses. Her eyes swept over the four little ones and finally fell on Yinreng.

"Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Why is the Crown Prince here at Chengqian Palace?"

Yinreng calmed himself down, making sure he wouldn't laugh out loud as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Just now, while I was enjoying the lanterns, I saw the maidservant beside Empress Tong Jia saying that you were ill. I was very worried, so I brought the imperial physician to visit you."

Bring the imperial physician to visit?

Tong Jia was completely stunned.

She was not sick at all, she just wanted to find an excuse to see the emperor. What would happen if the imperial physician found out?

"Prince... you're worrying too much. I'm just feeling a little unwell, so there's no need for a doctor..."

Yinreng didn't give her a chance to refuse. He turned around, took the doctor's sleeve and walked towards the bed.

"Give the Imperial Concubine a thorough diagnosis and treatment to see what's wrong with her."

"I have a long-term imperial physician..."

"Mrs. Tongjia."

Yinreng interrupted Tong Jia's refusal and said with a gloomy look in his eyes, "The one who came with me today is the emperor's personal physician. Does Empress Tong Jia not trust the emperor?"

Only then did Tong Jia see clearly that the person coming was the imperial physician Hu.

Doctor Hu ignored Tong Jia's refusal and stretched out his hand to feel her pulse, but his expression became more and more strange, and finally he simply walked in front of Yinreng.

"Your Highness, it may be that my medical skills are not very good, and I have not been able to diagnose what illness the Imperial Concubine has."

Yinreng looked at Tong Jia with a cold expression, "Your Highness, when the Emperor was entertaining all the officials, your Highness, had the palace maid lie and claim she was seriously ill. What exactly does this mean?"

Tong Jia never expected that she would be forced to this point by a half-grown child.

What can she say?

Say you are faking illness to gain sympathy?

That's what happened, but admitting it in front of a child is more or less embarrassing.

"I will naturally explain this matter to His Majesty." Tong Jia stiffened her neck.

"What do you want to tell me?"

Kangxi walked in with a sullen face, glanced at the four little ones and then looked at Tong Jia who was lying on the bed with a panicked look on her face.

[Why did the Emperor suddenly come? Is the palace banquet over?]

Yinreng pondered in his heart.

In fact, Liang Jiugong had already sent someone to inform Kangxi when Yinreng decided to come to Chengqian Palace.
