Before we even reached the palace gate, we could see two figures in the distance.

Liu Bajin had sharp eyesight and didn't open the carriage door. Instead, he said from the carriage door, "Master, Madam. It seems that Pingtong and Xiaoqianzi, the little eunuch from Madam's courtyard, are waiting at the palace gate."

"Hmm." Yinzhi indicated that he understood.

He Zhuo pushed away Yin Zhi's mischievous hand, tidied himself up, and on the way back, Yin Zhi refused to ride a horse and insisted on riding in a carriage with his wife.

I was taken advantage of quite a bit along the way, and my clothes are a bit disheveled.

"Hurry up, carriage!" Yinzhi replied from inside the carriage.

Could something have happened to the prince? The couple exchanged a glance.

As expected,

As soon as I entered the palace gate, I saw Xiao Qianzi and Ping Tong, the head maid of the front courtyard, waiting for me.

Walk faster.

"Sister Chun, it seems that Princess Li in the backyard has miscarried."

Granny Sun has already gone to fetch the imperial physician and also sent someone from the front courtyard to Consort Hui's place.

This servant has been here for almost half an hour.

"I came here with Sister Pingtong from the front courtyard to wait for the Fujin and the master."

When Chunfen whispered this in my ear, Pingtong was also reporting it to Yinzhi.

Both of them quickened their pace, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard Li Gege's voice, "My child, my child, you haven't even seen this world yet..."

The mournful cry sounded like that of a mother animal that had lost her cubs.

The couple saw Qiao'er, the palace maid who was instructing Consort Hui.

"Greetings to the master, greetings to the eldest princess."

He Zhuo quickly stepped forward to help her up: "Aunt Qiao, please get up quickly. What's this?" He then looked at Li Gege's room with a puzzled expression.

Aunt Qiao did not answer directly, but made a gesture of invitation: "Master, Madam, the imperial physician is in the side room."

After writing the prescription, the imperial physician did not leave, but personally instructed the apprentice to prepare the medicine.

Because it was the eldest son's first child, and the first one to conceive in the prince's harem, it concerned the imperial heir, so the reason had to be explained immediately, otherwise it could easily implicate him.

So the imperial physician waited here for Yinzhi and Hezhuo to return, and personally oversaw the preparation of the medicine.

He learned from the imperial physician that, firstly, when he arrived, Princess Li's pregnancy was already beyond saving; she was over a month pregnant.

Secondly, Li Gege's pulse indicated that she had taken contraceptive pills, commonly known as "medicinal decoctions" in the backyard. Because of the medication, this pregnancy was likely doomed from the start.

Third, it is likely that Li Gege will have difficulty conceiving again in the future.

Yinzhi instructed Liu Bajin to properly see off the imperial physician and gave him a large red envelope.

Aunt Qiao also went back to report to Consort Hui.

Yinzhi remained in the side room, his expression not very good.

As Kangxi's eldest son born out of wedlock, Yinzhi was not on good terms with the Crown Prince. However, the main issue was that the two sons were vying for their father's favor, but Yinzhi generally could not win against the Crown Prince.

Emperor Kangxi was fond of Han studies and valued the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children.

The Crown Prince was raised in the Qianqing Palace from a young age, and after entering school, he lived in the Yuqing Palace, enjoying the Emperor's love and care.

As for him, where was he? He lived in the residence of a minister, and he couldn't even see his mother. He was only allowed to enter the palace to visit his father and mother on major holidays.

At that time, the young Yinzhi noticed that his father, the Emperor, had a cute and adorable younger brother.

At first, young Yinzhi liked his younger brother quite a bit, but gradually he noticed that his father's gaze was always on his brother. The close bond between father and son was so strong that no one could interfere.

He was raised outside the palace and could not even see his father. When he finally did see his father, his father's attention was always on his younger brother, and he was always the one who was ignored.
