Chapter 289 Being Too Clever



The imperial harem has never lacked intelligent people, but it has also never lacked those who think they are clever enough.

Clearly, Consort Hui herself was not very clever, but she couldn't help but stir up trouble.

Yinti, who inherited the essence of Consort Hui, was even more so, always keen on finding fault with others, especially the Crown Prince.

In a way, this mother and son were the troublemakers in the harem; wherever there was commotion, they were there too.

That's how it is right now.

Yinti received a hint from Chunyu, and with his not-so-bright little brain, he not only connected the dots between the ordeal of Consort Ping and her son, but he also deduced that the person behind the trouble was most likely the Crown Prince and the Hesheli clan outside the palace.

Oh dear, this is truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple; it's like family members no longer recognizing each other.

Yinti immediately shared this good news with his mother, Consort Hui, who was still confined to Chuxiu Palace and unable to leave.

Consort Hui was still some time away from being released from confinement. She was already feeling uncomfortable being confined to the palace, and now that she had heard about Yinti's news, she felt a sense of relief and was even more eager to go out.

As she thought her plans were quite good, Consort Hui beckoned to Chengxin, her expression filled with excitement. "Go and tell Yinti to make sure he seizes this opportunity."

"Consort Ping will definitely bring unprecedented benefits to my son and me." Who knows, even the Crown Prince's position might change.

Chengxin couldn't help but pound her fist on the doorstep, "Your Majesty, what if Consort Ping hears the news and becomes dissatisfied with you and the First Prince as well? What should we do then?"

It's not that there aren't people who repay kindness with enmity, even though what their master is about to do is also unethical.

Chengxin muttered to herself, mainly because she felt that this kind of thing was sticky and not good for her hands.

"No, even if Consort Ping is really angry, she will first make a huge scene on the Crown Prince's and Hesheli's side."

"Because she is a mother," and a mother and child who are about to lose their only child.

Consort Hui was not sensitive to other matters, but she had lost a child, and Yinti was her lifeblood.

During the period before Yinti was born, Consort Hui was all too aware of his inner emotions.

In other words, without Yinqi, Consort Hui would have been out of the palace long ago, because she would have been unable to resist killing those people.

The coldness emanating from her eyes made Consort Hui harden her stance.

Orange Heart was startled by her master's transformation, but she quickly realized what was happening and obediently lowered her head, remaining silent.

...

Brother

"Eighth Brother, when do you think we should send the message to Consort Ping?"

Yinti sat in a chair, while the Eighth Prince Yinsi stood opposite him.

Having grown accustomed to Yinti's style, Yinsi smiled slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Elder brother, I think there's no rush with Consort Ping. At the very least, we should wait for the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital to diagnose the cause of the young prince's illness."

Without the cooperation of the Imperial Hospital, simply sending out the message wouldn't have a significant effect.

Since Yinti was able to inform Consort Hui of Chuxiu Palace through a letter, Yinsi, whom Yinti regarded as a subordinate, would naturally also know.

Moreover, Yinzhi thought much more than Yinti. He didn't think Yinti had the ability to find out such information. There must be someone else manipulating things behind the scenes, making Yinti the one to take the lead.

However, seeing Yinti's oblivious and clueless behavior, Yinsi thought to himself that this person definitely didn't understand. Sigh, that's right, he was too stupid to even think about anything. Fortunately, he was just using him, otherwise he would definitely have been tricked to death.

"Can the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy succeed?"

Yinti thought the Imperial Medical Academy was useless and didn't believe they had the ability.

It's no wonder that Yinti had a prejudice against the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy. It was due to the influence of the unspoken rules of the royal family over the years. In other words, as the royal family's private clinic, the Imperial Medical Academy's every move affected the health of everyone in the royal family.

The Imperial Medical Academy has produced many exceptionally talented individuals throughout its history, but these individuals have all met their demise in the palace due to their arrogance or lack of ability.

After all, most people in the palace are wealthy and powerful. The imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital are, in the end, still servants. If a servant were to stand against them one day, death would be the fate of that servant.

So, over time, the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy also began to learn to protect themselves, knowing that some things could not be said too much and some things could not be done too well.

After all, everyone's life is precious, and nobody wants to die, especially not because of their own mistakes that could lead to the loss of their family's lives.

Yinzhi nodded with a smile, "Some of the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital have close ties with the Hesheli clan."

Not everyone wants something to happen to Consort Ping and her son; if things are handled properly…

Moreover, if the young prince were to curry favor with Consort Ping before his death, he might even receive a reward.

None of us are saints; most of us are simply greedy for worldly riches and glory.

After hearing Yinzhi's words, Yinti stroked his chin and said, "Then let's do as Eighth Brother says."

However, we still need to hurry. It would be good for us if Consort Ping and the Crown Prince started fighting.

In the previous dynasty, the Emperor planned to personally lead the army to conquer the Dzungars next year.

I'll most likely be traveling with the team then.

Since he is currently the only prince in the harem who has started a family, it is said that one should start a family and then establish a career. He has not only started a family, but also had a child of his own. It is time for him to make his mark.

This was not only Yinqi's own imagination, but also Kangxi's hints.

He and the Crown Prince were originally in a competitive relationship. Now that the Crown Prince has the upper hand in the court, Kangxi will make up for some of his disadvantages.

Nothing is more alluring than military power than the allure of court officials' favor.

It has to be said that Yinti's words aroused great jealousy in Yinsi, who was standing to the side. They were both the Emperor's sons, so why was he not valued and received nothing?

Considering himself a mature adult, Yinzhi was long past the age of dwelling on such pointless questions, but this did not prevent him from being dissatisfied with his background.

Later, when Yinzhi sought to marry Lady Guoluo, he allowed her to be disrespectful to his own mother and harsh to his concubines. This was justified even though Lady Guoluo could not give birth to the legitimate son Yinzhi desired.

"Congratulations, elder brother! I wish you great success!"

Yinzhi's words made Yinti laugh heartily. He walked over to Yinzhi and patted him on the shoulder, "Eighth brother, don't worry, your elder brother will not forget you."

Mother said that Juechan is always there and she will send people to take good care of him, so you don't need to worry too much.

It is a cause for celebration that Juechan has finally become a Changzai after so long. Although he is still of lowly status, at least he is not like before when he had no official title.

Yinzhi took a deep breath, nodded, and appropriately showed his gratitude and admiration for Yinti. "With my elder brother and Mother Hui around, I've always been at ease." That's a lie.

Unfortunately, his mother can no longer leave the Chuxiu Palace, otherwise he wouldn't be at her mercy and would have to be careful when taking action.

A hint of apprehension flashed in Yinzhi's eyes. These two knew how to cooperate while holding hostages; they weren't completely stupid after all.
