Tingyu said, "Your Majesty, although you are not short of money, there is no need to give it to someone you don't have a good relationship with."
Wanwan listened to Tingyu Tingfeng's seemingly self-serving arguments without saying anything.
Because of his personality, Tingyu Tingfeng mostly follows orders and rarely offers words of advice.
This time, seeing so much money being given away, I said a few words.
Although these things are insignificant in Wangwang's eyes, Tingyu and Tingfeng are, after all, servants, so he still feels a little sorry for them.
Wanwan said, "Prince Baoqing is now the eldest son among the Emperor's children; all the others died young. Although I have no intention of winning him over, I also do not want to antagonize him."
As for the deeper aspects of Wanwan, nothing was said. This woman will be a great asset in leading troops in the future, and will be of great use!
…………………………………………………………………
That evening, Emperor Kangxi came to Jingren Palace. Earlier that day, when he went to Cining Palace, he told Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang something. After discussion, the two decided to re-order the generations of the princes who were still alive.
This is also because Emperor Kangxi has had more children in the last two years; he now has at least four sons!
Those who died young before are not counted, so I came to Jingren Palace today to tell Wanwan about it.
Wanwan: "Reorder the order of teeth?"
Kangxi said, "Yes, there are really more children now. Those who died young before... we won't include those." Kangxi paused when he mentioned those who died young.
When Emperor Kangxi first had his first child, he was about fourteen or fifteen years old (by the traditional Chinese age reckoning). After that, almost every child he had was born died, and every pregnancy ended in miscarriage. So, generally speaking, he rarely devoted any energy to children he didn't raise.
Because he was afraid of getting hurt, he didn't put in too much effort, so he wouldn't be so sad if he died young.
Emperor Kangxi said, "I have discussed this with my ancestors, and we will re-order the order of generations and change the names. We will use the character '胤' with the radical '礻'."
Wanwan thought about it and realized that this was normal. It seemed that the order of seniority was re-established after Kangxi brought his eldest son, Yinzhi, back to the palace.
Wanwan: "That's fine too, let the Emperor decide."
Kangxi said, "Hmm, I've already thought of their names. I'll issue the imperial edict tomorrow."
"Does Qingqing have any special privileges? Can she know their names in advance?" Wanwan's tone became a little coquettish as she said this.
Emperor Kangxi said, "My dear, I want to know." Kangxi's tone was slightly...
Wanwan said, "Your Majesty, I suddenly don't want to know anymore. After all, Yinzhen's name has already been decided."
Wanwan understood Kangxi's tone and knew what he wanted to do. She would never agree to those humiliating treaties again.
Whenever Wanwan asks Kangxi for something, she usually has to pay a price, and that price is usually in bed, so you know what I mean, hehe (?_?).
Seeing that Wanwan was not fooled, Kangxi felt a little regretful, but he could not say anything more. He then led Wanwan into the study and ground ink for himself.
Then he wrote down the name he had chosen on the paper.
Yinzhi
Yinreng
Yin Zhi
Yinzhen
In the future, Baoqing will be called Yinzhi, Baocheng will be called Yinreng, and Yinzhi and Yinzhen were already decided beforehand, so no changes will be made.
As Wanwan looked at the names Kangxi wrote on the paper, she knew that in the next few years, or even more than a decade, Kangxi's army of numbers would be coming.
"Wanwan are all names with auspicious meanings. The Emperor must have put a lot of thought into choosing these names."
Kangxi "indeed" (this is made up by the author; the author doesn't know whether the Imperial Household Department first found characters for Kangxi to choose from when Kangxi named his son, or whether he came up with them himself).
Emperor Kangxi said, "However... it's been several years now, and neither you nor I have any major health problems, so why haven't you gotten pregnant?"
Wanwan said, "I would like to get pregnant, but haven't I been raising Yinzhen for the past two years?"
Wanwan said, "I might not be able to handle it all."
Wanwan thought for a moment and then added, "Maybe it's just that our time hasn't come yet, but don't even think about making me drink any pregnancy-enhancing medicine. I won't drink it."
The reason Wanwan isn't pregnant is, of course, because she can't have children.
Forgive Wanwan, it's really hard to accept. She got pregnant at fourteen or fifteen, and she was only 14 when she first entered the palace. She doesn't want to be a mother at fifteen.
Adopting Yinzhen was the best option for her at the time. Besides, having a child at 18 or even in her early twenties wasn't considered early. Moreover, with Kangxi living so long, it wouldn't have mattered if she had given birth earlier.
Most importantly, Wanwan couldn't give birth to any of Kangxi's children who didn't exist, so she had to find a loophole and give birth to those of Kangxi's children who had teeth but hadn't grown up.
Wanwan had already decided that the children she would give birth to would be the sixth prince of the Uya clan and the eleventh prince of the Guoluo clan.
In addition, there was the eighth daughter of Consort Tong.
Three children, no more, no less, just right.
Emperor Kangxi thought, "Is it really just that our time hasn't come yet? I thought it was because I hadn't tried hard enough."
Upon hearing this, Wanwan's face remained slightly flushed (actually), "Xuan Ye, don't be impatient. Perhaps when the time is right, the child will arrive."
Emperor Kangxi genuinely wanted to have a biological child with me.
It wasn't just about continuing the family line; it was also because he liked Wanwan, and he saw in Wanwan's attitude towards Yinzhen and Baocheng how she would treat her own child in the future.
Emperor Kangxi lacked maternal love, so he naturally wanted to have a "perfect" child with Wanwan.
It's about being a child who is loved by their parents, like... like something that no one in the Kangxi novels has ever experienced.
So Kangxi wanted to make up for the regrets he had not received as a child by giving his biological child with Wanwan.
So that night, Kangxi worked hard to cultivate the land. He just couldn't believe that if both of them were healthy, how could they not have a child?
On one hand, he thought it was because the time wasn't right, and on the other hand, he thought it was because he hadn't tried hard enough. Then, Wanwan suffered unprecedented "torture" in the next two or three months.
Kangxi also sowed the seeds with care.
***Prosperity, Democracy, Civility, and Harmony***

******************
The next day, Emperor Kangxi issued an edict to re-order the age of all the princes who had come of age.
Baoqing became the eldest son (the first prince) Yinzhi.
Bao Cheng became the legitimate son (the second prince), Crown Prince Yinreng.
Yin Zhi (the Third Prince) is still Yin Zhi.
Yinzhen (the Fourth Prince) is still Yinzhen.
As for Kangxi's daughters, the author doesn't know much about them, so he won't write much about them. The most famous ones are Princess Rongxian and Princess Gulun Kejing. He doesn't know much about the others.
