"Master got so lost in thought! He'll apologize to his sister-in-law later!"

"Fourth Brother, let's apologize in a few days. Everyone's watching! Don't cause trouble for your wife!"

Yinxiang spoke in a low voice, but his tone was carefree.

Yinzhen frowned slightly, feeling that something was amiss, but he nodded slightly in response.

The pear at the eye of the storm was incredibly calm! She was eating fruit with a fork.

Hongbing and Foerguochun exchanged a glance before looking away, each lost in their own thoughts.

Emperor Kangxi did investigate, but he noticed that Shirley had a good relationship with the princes.

He remembered that the fourth brother was not one to speak without reason, so he still arranged for someone to keep an eye on him.

Unbeknownst to him, Yinzhen had drunk too much and had a dream that night.

I dreamt that he almost lost his composure in front of the emperor.

It was the thirteenth brother who reminded him. The thirteenth brother was indeed the most reliable, much better than his younger brother.

His younger brother was watching coldly from the sidelines, gloating!

But now, looking at it from a different perspective, he realized that the thirteenth prince didn't seem to be worried about him at all.

What alarmed him even more was the way Kangxi looked at the Crown Princess!

He's a man, how could he not understand?

Moreover, Yuqing Palace had not produced any offspring for many years, yet the Crown Princess remained in her position peacefully.

So, twins—

Yinzhen suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, staggered out of bed, and drank three cups of ice-cold tea before he calmed down.

"My lord, shall we light the lamps?" asked the waiting eunuch.

"No need, you can go down!"

"Yes, sir!"

Yinzhen sighed deeply, staring into the void as he fell into a state of mental confusion.

He finally remembered the surprise in his father's eyes that day.

It wasn't that I was surprised by the questionable lineage of the imperial grandson, but rather, I was surprised at how he had even come to the discovery...

No wonder, no wonder the Crown Princess was so fearless!

Yinzhen suddenly lost interest!

What he was pursuing was ultimately excluded by his father from the very beginning!

Yes, it wasn't just him.

And then there's that older brother who's been jumping around advocating for the killing of the crown prince.

He probably had no choice; it's a well-known fact that the victors are always right and the losers suffer greatly.

The eldest brother planned to kill the crown prince when Kangxi was at his angrier and more irrational.

However, he underestimated the Crown Prince's position in his father's heart.

This includes the third brother, who later withdrew from the struggle for the throne.

He tried to lie low; his father liked to use him, but disliked him.

The Eighth Prince tried every means to win people's hearts, but he was still suppressed by the Emperor because of his birth.

Even when the fourteenth prince jumped out, he remained calm and composed.

After all, Emperor Kangxi favored the crown prince in the first half of his life, and his favoritism towards Hongbing in the second half was undeniable.

He thought that once he had dealt a blow to Hongbing, he could rest easy.

However, this nightmare served as a reminder to him!

He's just like his good brothers!

Yinzhen suddenly felt a surge of inexplicable anger, but he tried his best to suppress it.

Just two days later, Kangxi's reprimand left him feeling utterly cold.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Your subject will obey Your Majesty's decree. I suspect someone is trying to shake the foundations of our Great Qing Dynasty, and I will volunteer to investigate!"

Yinzhen spoke expressionlessly.

What are they investigating? It's just a raft; he has to make his stance clear, doesn't he?

Kangxi stared intently at him: "Fourth Prince, you must earnestly share my burdens! Share the burdens of the Qing Dynasty!"

"Your subject obeys!" Yinzhen replied in a deep voice.

Only I know what I'm really thinking.

There was resentment and anger!

No one dares to say that the crown prince will never wake up again.

Moreover, the Crown Prince also has twin sons.

Ah! The legitimate son.

He wanted to target the Crown Princess, but would Emperor Kangxi allow it?

In the imperial harem, sometimes a mother's status rises because of her son, such as the eighth prince and his mother. Sometimes a son's status rises because of his mother, such as the second prince.

He didn't know.

Whether Sherry knows or not is unimportant.

On his way out of the capital on official business, Yinzhen was suddenly caught in a mudslide.

He lost his memory after returning.

Sherry was relieved; the 30 points were well spent.

A certain system: Guess whether this is a natural disaster or a man-made one?

Sherry: What? Someone made a move?

System: Not bad, great demon, you guessed it already?

Sherry: Who is it? Could it be the Eighth Prince or the Fourteenth Prince?

System: They used those methods and the fourth brother managed to dodge it! It's your twins!

Sherry: ...As expected of my child, he's so smart.

Sherry pretended not to know anything and took her son and daughter to eat hot pot.

However, to be fair, Shirley's relationship with her son is not particularly close.

She has a better relationship with her daughters.

Shirley always felt that Hongbing was too precocious and had no childhood.

He will act in a way that the other person wants when needed; he can be coquettish, sensible, strong, or pretend to be strong.

When facing his twin sister, there is more of a tacit understanding in their eyes.

He looked at his older sister as if she were an innocent child.

He only showed a slightly excessive expression towards Sherry unless she really angered him.

You always have this childish expression, like someone your age is so immature.

It's not that Shirley hasn't bullied him. When they were young, she could suppress him with force, but now that they're older, she can't win an argument with him, and she can't catch him with force.

Sherry can only throw a tantrum and act like a spoiled child!

It was around that time that Hongbing realized how much fun his mother had.

So, in addition to studying culture, history, politics, imperial power, and various languages, he began to study people!

Psychology! Including women!

The more you study their emotions, the more indifferent they become. They're the kind of person who would remain expressionless even if you were to perform drastic treatment on them.

I don't know if it's a lack of physical sensation or emotional detachment.

Sherry didn't like playing with him. Folgochun understood him, but she was busy coaxing her mother and sister, so she ignored him as well.
