"Alright, Consort Guo Luoluo is narrow-minded. From today onwards, she shall remain in her palace to reflect on her mistakes. As for Kejing, from today onwards, he shall be handed over to Consort Yi to be properly disciplined. If he is not disciplined properly, your Guo Luoluo family will no longer be eligible to enter the palace for the imperial concubine selection."
Guo Luoluo stood there stunned, her mouth opening and closing as if she couldn't say anything, her heart filled with despair.
Consort Yi, who had rushed over, heard this and froze on the spot. She didn't know what was going on. Her sister was usually very calm, but she knew that her sister was finished now.
After Kangxi finished speaking, he carried Chenghuan away. Mingxiu, in a good mood after her outburst, quickly followed.
However, she was actually quite puzzled. Although she had not had much contact with this Consort Guo Luoluo before, she did know a little about her.
They are usually very cautious and docile, so why would they do such a thing today, and with such a flawed approach? Anyone who knows what happened will know that they are in the wrong.
This is completely unlike something she would do.
But she was so angry that she just went back to fight without thinking, and now that I think about it, I really don't understand it.
Mingxiu was very puzzled, but she really didn't know what went wrong, so she could only leave it for now and check it later.
The most important thing now is to please him.
We can look into Mingxiu's case later, but we really can't look into Consort Yi's case. Others might not know, but doesn't she know her own sister?
Her sister would never do such a thing, and Ke Jing is usually so gentle that she's afraid of hurting small animals when she touches them, so what happened today seems very strange.
However, seeing her sister's distraught state, Consort Yi could only have someone take her back first and then invite the imperial physician to come and take a look.
The events that occurred there quickly spread throughout the palace after everyone left, and some people laughed at Consort Guoluo for being brainless.
However, some discerning people knew that this nobleman Guo Luoluo was acting strangely today. Even if people don't know each other well, they should still know each other to some extent.
Today's events were bizarre from beginning to end.
No one could understand it.
But most of the time, they would just think about it, inquire about it, and then stop caring, since it had nothing to do with them.
Moreover, with the addition of a disfavored concubine in the palace, they have one less competitor.
At this moment, Mingxiu was carefully applying an ice pack to Chenghuan's eyes in her palace. The child had been crying for too long, and her delicate skin was now swollen.
Mingxiu was heartbroken. Kangxi, who was standing next to her, looked at Mingxiu's appearance and recalled Mingxiu's quick wit earlier. He felt a little surprised, but it was also reasonable.
After all, he always knew this wasn't someone who would stay put.
After Mingxiu had comforted Chenghuan and had Luzhu take Chenghuan to rest, she finally had time to look at Kangxi beside her.
Seeing Kangxi's amused expression, Mingxiu became a little angry: "Your Majesty, you don't even know how to help me today? I've really suffered a lot today."
"How could I not help you? Didn't you make Guo Luoluo so angry that she almost died?"
Mingxiu glared at him: "How can you blame me? If it weren't for her stirring up trouble today and trying to hit Chenghuan, I wouldn't have bothered with her at all."
"However, Your Majesty, I find Guo Luoluo Shi quite strange today. Everything that happened today, unless someone was completely brainless, was blamed on them. I never would have guessed she was such a fool." Mingxiu's big eyes darted around, filled with curiosity.
Emperor Kangxi also frowned, because he also felt that today's events were somewhat strange, but at the same time, he couldn't quite put his finger on what was so strange about them.
He then said, "What Guo Luoluo did today was indeed a bit stupid, but maybe she just didn't show it before, so we didn't notice."
Mingxiu frowned and shook her head. She had known Guo Luoluo for many years. If she were really that stupid, she would have revealed it to some extent during her daily greetings.
But there really wasn't any truth to it. On the contrary, she was usually very cautious, so Mingxiu didn't believe it was because she was foolish and didn't think about what would happen next.
So she voiced her thoughts, which Kangxi found strange, and he said he would investigate.
Then Mingxiu stopped caring. Since Kangxi said he would investigate, she would let him investigate. She didn't have the manpower or the intelligence to do so, so she decided not to get involved.
From today onwards, the palace will be one less Consort Guo Luoluo. Consort Yi even came here specifically to apologize to Mingxiu and Chenghuan for this matter.
Mingxiu didn't say whether she would forgive or not. When Yinreng came over after school and heard the news, he quickly had someone prepare a music box for Chenghuan, which finally made Chenghuan completely happy.
This girl can have fun again.
However, this girl was fickle. When Yinreng went to school, Chenghuan went with him once. She happened to be there when they were learning to ride horses and taking a horse riding lesson. After that, she became fascinated by horse riding.
She doesn't like music boxes anymore, she doesn't like pretty toys anymore, all she wants to do every day is go horseback riding, and she even wants to try riding a horse herself.
No one dared to let her try it; with her small arms and legs, it was better to pass.
It's a pity that if Chenghuan were an obedient person, Mingxiu wouldn't have such a headache. But this is the little tyrant of Yonghe Palace.
After returning, she kept pestering Mingxiu to ride a horse. Mingxiu couldn't stand it anymore, so she got her a rocking horse and tricked her into riding it first to get a feel for it. She said that once she was a little older, she would get her a pony.
That's how they managed to fool the person.
Spring passed and autumn came, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for Chenghuan to go to the study.
Because Yinreng started school at the age of four, and Kangxi saw that he was doing very well, he directly decreed that all princes and princesses thereafter should start school at the age of four.
Mingxiu wanted to protest when she heard this, but since that's how everyone does it, there was nothing she could do.
Moreover, since none of the students have any objections, her opinion as a student's parent is completely irrelevant.
Mingxiu glanced resentfully at the people outside happily picking fruit. They were just waiting to go to school, because they could play with lots of other children there.
Mingxiu could only hurry up and prepare the things Chenghuan would need for school, and then hand in some things, so that she wouldn't be completely clueless and unable to learn anything when she actually went to school.
Princesses who have just entered the academy do not have to live in the princess residence like the princes; they can live in their mother's palace.
They will move into the princess's quarters after they turn six, but they will be given a buffer period.
Although Mingxiu didn't think this was a significant step forward, she couldn't protest against it.
