Qing Yan needs to calm down. Transmigrating is one thing, but becoming an infant? Is this a joke? When she was three years old, she met a jade-carved little boy. Qing Yan's eyes immediately lit...
The following morning, an imperial decree was issued from Kangxi's temporary palace, ordering all the princes and their children to come together.
After Kangxi helped the twins deal with the servants, the two felt that Kangxi's actions were the best, and quickly stepped forward to flatter and please him.
"Grandpa, why are you up so early?" Yiken'e happily greeted him. Kangxi was in the courtyard, waiting for the other little one to appear.
"You two still remember Grandfather? I feel like you've both forgotten!" Kangxi was very happy. His two children had really grown up and were able to handle everything in such a short time.
“Of course, Grandfather, we’ve brought all the servants from the Imperial Household Department. Aren’t you happy?” Yiken said, tilting his little head up.
Yin and Qingyan stood behind them with smiles on their faces. No wonder Yiken'e and Hutulifengshengzhalafen were so eager to try; it turned out that Kangxi had left them with some lessons.
"Hmm, you cooperated well." Kangxi came out to greet the two little devils, which was also a reward for them.
"Mafa, is it really possible to move to the Cao family like this?" Yiken'e disliked the Cao family, and the sight of their actions made him feel uncomfortable all over.
"It can't be moved here right now!" Kangxi said, leading the twins, one on each side, as he prepared to walk into the main hall.
Consort Tong stood on the stone steps, watching the three generations of the family enter the shop, and then directly invited Yin and Qingyan to come along as well.
“Mother, there is one of the illegitimate descendants of the Uya clan. I almost let it slip in front of Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen, but Yiken’e covered it up for me,” Yin said directly.
Upon hearing this, Consort Tong's face instantly turned ugly. Wuya said that she had not given up yet.
"Hmph, I knew it. Uya was bound to cause trouble. Yiken'e already knows about Uya. Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen is a girl after all, so it's best to keep it from her." Consort Tong said directly.
A bitter expression appeared on Yin's face. No matter who it was, they all had to argue with him. If they didn't get what they wanted, would they just harass the people around him?
"Mother, I just feel tired. Is it too much to make Yikeen bear all this burden with me?" Yin asked, slightly confused.
She once pursued this maternal love too much, completely abandoning her principles, which led to the chaos she caused, ultimately resulting in the loss of even her own son.
“Yiken’e has done very well. He will have to support the entire mansion in the future, and he must go through various trials before he can do so,” Consort Tong said to Yin.
That knot in his heart has always remained, and Consort Tong has tried her best to help him resolve it. There will definitely be no rift in the relationship between them, mother and son.
"Mother, let's go inside first." Qingyan stood obediently to the side. "Father will be worried soon!"
Qingyan's words made the mother and son smile at each other; this was good too.
Inside the palace, Emperor Kangxi was listening to the twins recount yesterday's events. Today, Kangxi had specially instructed Li De to inform Yin about the dinner gathering two hours earlier, hoping to help Yin resolve his inner turmoil.
"Sit down, everyone!" Kangxi looked at Yinzhen. "Is there anything you wish to say?"
The twins needed different upbringings, so Emperor Kangxi had Consort Tong personally train Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen.
Now, after Consort Tong went to the side hall with Qingyan and Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen, Emperor Kangxi spoke directly.
Inside the side hall, the three of them took their seats. Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen started fussing about going outside to play, so Shu took her directly to the garden.
"My dear, how is the Fourth Prince's mood?" Consort Tong was very worried. If Yin knew in advance that all of this was planned by someone else, he would probably be furious.
"Mother, Fourth Prince is in a very bad mood!" Qingyan said helplessly. "He didn't sleep at all last night."
Qingyan was also helpless. Who told Yin to have such a mother? She's been causing trouble until now. Outsiders all think that if Yin doesn't take care of her, things will get really bad.
The people of the Uya clan are like cockroaches that can't be killed; you can run into them anytime.
"You can stay at the palace for a while. You just ransacked the mansion yesterday. Let's deal with the servants first. Why did you let Yiken'e do it himself?" Consort Tong felt it was inappropriate to let the children do it, even after hearing Kangxi's praise.
"The children want to take action, but Fourth Prince said we can't live with them forever. If we take action now and make a mistake, we can still help them. But what if we're gone and these servants scheme against us?" Qingyan thought about Yin's words and felt that he was right.
"Alright, you two are both equally bad." Consort Tong sighed helplessly. Qingyan was soft-hearted, and Yin was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Yiken'e and the others were different. They were trained by Kangxi and Consort Tong and were all cold on the inside but warm on the outside. They were very strict with others.
"Mother," Qingyan said helplessly, feigning affection.
Consort Tong smiled and asked, "Do you have any thoughts on those servants sent by the Imperial Household Department?"
Yiken'e sent the people over, which outsiders saw as a provocation against Qingyan.
“Mother, we agreed that Yiken’e would handle it and wouldn’t interfere. He hopes that Father Emperor and you can deal with it together!” Qingyan said, not feeling hurt.
In theory, the way Emperor Kangxi and Consort Tong dealt with those people was probably the most reliable.
"I told you you're just lazy." Consort Tong tapped Qingyan's forehead helplessly. This habit of pushing things onto others hasn't changed at all.
"Mother, it's not that I'm lazy, it's just that I don't want to care anymore!" Qingyan said helplessly.
“Every time I come to this villa, there are so many traitorous lackeys. I can’t do anything about it!” Qingyan shrugged.
“There are some villas that you may never visit in your entire life. Who can guarantee that these servants will be loyal for life? Without anyone to restrain them, they will have all sorts of problems!” Consort Tong said helplessly.
“Mother, you’re right. I heard that the servant who was being escorted was beaten to death in the palace!” Qingyan pondered. It must have been that those people were a bit too reckless and directly angered Consort Tong.
"Yes, just as you said, unrestrained servants are not a good thing!" Consort Tong chuckled, while Qingyan wore a helpless smile. What else could he say?
With the actions taken at the imperial palace and the Fourth Prince's residence as a precedent, the masters of every other residence that accompanied the emperor began to discipline their servants. The princes' North Garden saw a large number of people beaten to death. Other residences, unable to directly shift the blame for punishment to Kangxi like Yiken'e did, could only deal with the situation silently.
