He Zhuo thought that the evidence he had collected earlier about the Uya family's embezzlement and plot against the imperial heir had probably already taken effect, and that Consort De's gentle and considerate image in Kangxi's eyes had now collapsed.

When He Zhuo got married, if Lady Gao's hand reached into the prince's quarters, don't be afraid of it being chopped off.

The Imperial Household Department dealt with a large number of corrupt officials, and apart from those who were eliminated, everyone was happy.

However, there was one person who was dissatisfied. Who was that person? It was the Third Prince, Yinzhi. He was determined to get back the family's share of the silver that had been embezzled by the Ministry of Works and the Imperial Household Department, but little did he know that his father, the Emperor, would not investigate.

Each prince was allocated 200,000 taels of silver for his own residence. Yinzhi had 70,000 to 80,000 taels left over. Originally, he wouldn't have been able to save that much. Yinzhi was inspired by a time when Hezhuo took the children to buy rice while he was in the palace.

Every now and then, he would come to check on the construction of the mansion. He wouldn't do anything to you, he would just ask you about the construction tools, materials, which garden or building style it was imitating, and what style it was.

They asked all sorts of questions, tirelessly inquiring about every detail, including the price. As a result, the builder didn't dare to overcharge, and they still made a profit of about twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver.

When Yinzhi received the money for the division of the family property, he kept his promise and took out 30,000 taels of silver to buy private rooms for his three legitimate sons. After settling the matter, he handed it over to his wife.

Kangxi looked at the illegal items, such as the "Nine-Tailed Phoenix Hairpin" found in the Uya family, on his imperial desk, along with the reports from the secret guards about the Imperial Kitchen controlling the harem to prevent women from having children, and the evidence of Consort De's collusion with the Uya clan to harm imperial heirs.

His heart sank. The woman he had doted on for over 20 years, he wondered why no princes had been born in the harem since Consort De gave birth to the 14th prince, until Lady Wang entered the palace and gave birth to the 15th prince. So it was this wretched woman. He never imagined that the Empress's son, Prince Chenghu, was also orchestrated by the Uya family.

Emperor Kangxi was arrogant and would never think that he was bad. It must be this vile woman's fault. She seduced her cousin in her palace and climbed into the emperor's bed, stepping on her cousin to rise to power. She was a vicious woman.

It's ridiculous that even after his cousin's death, he went to Yonghe Palace to reminisce about her with Consort De; it's simply...

Why……

However, the fourth and fourteenth princes are both good children, and Consort De has a princess being raised by the Empress Dowager. Well, let's just keep Consort De like this.

However, the Uya family could not be let go. Kangxi looked at the things on the imperial desk with a fierce gaze.

Not long after, He Zhuo received news that the entire family of Princess Wuya in the backyard had died. It was said that they had died on their way back to Shengjing to visit relatives. Princess Wuya immediately fainted.

The Uya family was said to be Yinzhen's maternal family, and Yinzhen had just made a contribution. He went to the Qianqing Palace without stopping to request a thorough investigation. Emperor Kangxi agreed and ordered the local officials to conduct a thorough investigation.

The result, of course, was nothing; they just found out it was a band of outlaws.

How could outsiders possibly know the methods used by Emperor Kangxi? He didn't hold a public trial entirely for the sake of the children, or perhaps Emperor Kangxi truly loved Consort De?

He Zhuo never expected that someone would help push the Wuya family. The evidence the Wuya family had against Prince Chenghu was a foreshadowing planted by Empress Tong many years ago.

Who was Prince Chenghu? He was Kangxi's first legitimate son. Records show that Kangxi loved this son very much and placed great hopes on him, otherwise he would not have given him this name. Clearly, he was being groomed as the heir. Empress Tong was not entirely wrong about the Uya family. It is true that the Uya clan suppressed the bondservant concubines and plotted against the imperial heir.
