"You have ambition. Since you have made up your mind, I will certainly support you. Come, bring up the gift I prepared for the Tenth Prince."

Yin was stunned when he suddenly heard Mu Sili's voice.

"Empress Mother, why are you here in the Prince's Residence instead of lazing around in Kunning Palace? Is Unaxi bothering you again? Don't worry, your son will go play with her right away."

"No, don't you want to build your own kingdom and be the master of your own house? Once the Empress Dowager has made her decision, she will definitely support it.

The Empress Dowager is waiting for you to conquer a kingdom one day and come back to tell her, "Look, this is the kingdom my son has built for you. Just think about it and you will feel at ease."

Yin hung his head and kept complaining in his heart, you are relieved, but your son is not.

Forget it, I'd better just be a good brother and not think about those things for the time being, lest they get to my second brother's ears and he target me again.

"Empress Mother, what do you think my second brother is thinking about every day? I won't compete with him for the position of Crown Prince, so why does he keep provoking me for no reason?

Also, ever since the fourth brother started living with him, he often looks at his son with his eyes not being eyes and his nose not being a nose, and his son doesn't know how he offended them.

To be frank, if they continue to treat their son like this, he will probably really make a scene."

"How are you going to make trouble?"

Mu Sili was curious. Could he be planning to start a fight with them right now? Although she thought it was a good decision, wasn't it a little too early?

"Empress Mother, don't you think I'm a bit bad? The position of Crown Prince clearly belongs to my second brother, but I want to compete with him. I feel that he is not worthy of that position.

You don't know that your son often found him abusing palace servants in private, and he even secretly killed the palace maids serving in Yuqing Palace. Although those people were servants, they could not be beaten and killed at will.

Of course, if they made mistakes, their life or death could be decided based on the mistakes they made, but the second brother still killed them when they only made small mistakes. This is inappropriate.

Even though they are slaves, they are all citizens of the Qing Dynasty. What the second brother did was wrong. To his son, he was being violent.

If he really ascends to the throne as Crown Prince someday, I'm really worried that my brothers and I will have no chance of survival. Even if you were the Queen, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to suppress him. After all, he's not your son."

Mu Sili was a little surprised. When did this kid become so clear-headed? But since he had such an idea, as a mother, she had to support him no matter what.

"You're right. Since you want to fight for it, the Empress Dowager will naturally help you. But you have to remember that once you've made a decision, you can't change it at will."

"My son knows that he is responsible for the decisions he makes, and he has no regrets."

Inside Yuqing Palace, the Crown Prince had a gloomy look on his face. If this eldest grandson was really born by his eldest brother, he would be extremely embarrassed.

The Crown Princess is really useless. She has been married into Yuqing Palace for several months and still hasn't gotten pregnant. It's a pity that I have been staying in her palace every day since she entered the palace. She is useless.

And Yinzhen, in the past five years, this kid has become more and more skilled at superficial work. If I didn't need him to be my helper, I would have fired him long ago.

"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince is here."

"please."

Although she was angry, Concubine De still did a good job on the surface. At least everyone in the palace thought that the relationship between the brothers was very harmonious.

Doesn't the Emperor love to watch dramas about the deep love between brothers? Even if it's just a performance, he will perform it for him.

"Have those people dealt with. How dare you talk about such things in my Yuqing Palace? Do you really think my temper has improved?

"yes."

Yinzhen came to see the prince for no other reason than that his wife had been chosen and he was not very satisfied with it, so he came to talk to the prince.

Over the years, he has also come to understand that the more he empathizes with the prince, the more likely he will stand on his side and protect him no matter what he does.

Now that he had seized this opportunity to make the prince trust him more, he naturally would not let it go easily.

Although the wife Kangxi chose for him was a good one, Fei Yanggu was already dead, and the benefits this wife could bring him were very little, so he didn't want her very much.

It would be great if he could marry a capable wife with an outstanding family background. He has ambitions in his heart, and only a capable wife with a good family background can become his good wife.

As he expected, the prince did sympathize with him again. After all, he didn't like the crown princess either, and he understood Yinzhen's psychology.

After the two talked for a while, Yinzhen left. As his brothers grew up, the prince's disadvantages became apparent, and he had to make some preparations.

Otherwise, when the prince is targeted, he will be the first to be pushed out to take the blame.

Five years later, someone finally appeared in the court to impeach the prince.

"Your Majesty, in recent years, the Crown Prince has been beating and killing palace servants for no reason. His behavior is so egregious that we cannot bear to watch it. I beg Your Majesty to handle this matter impartially."

"Your Majesty, if a prince breaks the law, he will be punished just like a commoner. Although the Crown Prince is the heir to the throne, he cannot kill innocent people at will, even if they are servants. Evidence must be provided before killing them."

"Your Majesty, I beg you to punish the Crown Prince according to the law. Otherwise, the Qing Dynasty will be in danger."

As soon as these words were spoken, the prince, who had already been angry, finally couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Father Your Majesty, I never beat or killed those servants without reason. They asked for it. Please believe me.

If they hadn't been trying to sow discord between me and my brothers, I would never have done that. I beg Your Majesty to understand."

Having said that, the prince had already taken note of those officials who reported him.

If you dare to report him, then just wait for him. When he finds the opportunity, he will give them a desperate counterattack.

"I will not listen to one person's words. Come, investigate carefully for me. If the Crown Prince is really as you say, then I will definitely punish him severely."

Kangxi did not say how he would deal with those who impeached the crown prince if he had not done anything. After all, in his opinion, if they dared to impeach him, it meant they had sufficient evidence.

What he wants to see now is whether the prince has the possibility of turning the tables. After all, if the prince dares to do so, he must believe that he will not really punish him.

But the prince did not think the same as Kangxi. He just thought that he was the crown prince, so what was wrong with killing a few insignificant people? Why did they keep holding on to him?

And Kangxi, he was obviously his emperor father, so why didn't he stand on his side, but instead suggested that people should investigate him?

In the final analysis, I still didn't trust him and didn't give him my full trust.

Had he already decided in his heart to replace him as the crown prince, and that's why he treated him like this?

It's all Mu Sili's fault. If she hadn't suddenly gained favor, the emperor wouldn't have favored her so much, and he wouldn't have had a grudge against me, and I wouldn't have become like this.
