Chapter 132 My Son Has Made It Great
"It seems Chenghu is a very good older brother. If your Empress Mother gives birth to a younger brother or sister, Chenghu will be able to take good care of them." The Consort praised Chenghu as she walked.
She grew to like Chenghu more and more the more she looked at him, but unfortunately, she was destined not to be able to openly and honestly dote on him.
Whether in the imperial court or the inner palace, the emperor was unwilling to see the original four regents unite again.
And she was destined not to be friends with the Empress.
“My dear mother, my little sister woke up and cried because she didn’t see you. Please come and hug my little sister Xizhu.” Chenghu gently patted the crying Princess Xizhu, his eyes full of tenderness for her.
Originally, when Princess Xizhu woke up, her wet nurse wanted to take her out to find the Imperial Concubine, but Chenghu stopped her. He wanted to comfort his sister, but unexpectedly, not only did he fail to comfort her, he also made her cry even more sadly.
The original plan was for the wet nurse to take the little sister to the noble mother, but unexpectedly the noble mother came in.
"Alright, let your mother hug your little sister and she won't cry anymore." Niohuru stepped forward, picked up her daughter, gently patted her back, and coaxed her with soft moans.
Perhaps there really is a mother-child bond, because Princess Xizhu stopped crying once she was in her familiar embrace.
When Fanghua entered, she saw the Imperial Concubine lovingly coaxing Princess Xizhu, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
"The Imperial Concubine is becoming more and more maternal and caring. Princess Xizhu will be very fortunate in the future."
"That's right, my daughter is the most blessed person in the world." The Imperial Concubine replied so naturally, as if her daughter was the best person in the world.
"Alright, I suppose the child is hungry too. I won't keep you any longer. Go back and let the wet nurse feed the baby."
Fanghua dismissed him, saying that just now, Li Changfu had told her that palace spies had begun investigating her conversation with the Imperial Concubine.
The Imperial Concubine has stayed long enough today; it's time for her to go back.
"Hmph, do you really think I want to stay here? I only came to see Chenghu. If my princess hadn't fallen asleep, I wouldn't have bothered the Empress."
The Imperial Concubine snorted, then turned and walked out with Princess Xizhu in her arms.
Fanghua simply responded from behind her, "Then I won't see you off."
Those who didn't know the situation might have thought the two of them were fighting again.
After all, neither of them looked well.
As soon as the Imperial Concubine left, Chenghu couldn't help but ask, "Empress Mother, why do you and the Imperial Concubine always quarrel whenever you meet?"
Fanghua sat down beside her son's bed and affectionately patted the top of his head. "Take good care of yourself. You'll understand adult matters when you grow up."
After calming Chenghu down, Fanghua waved her hand, signaling everyone to leave.
After everyone was alone, Fanghua spoke again: "Chenghu, your mother knows you've been smart since you were little, but the situation in the palace is complicated and far from the peaceful place you see. You're still too young to understand now, but you'll understand when you're older."
She didn't want her son to be sensible too early, because precocious children suffer.
Children should do what children do.
“Empress Mother.” Cheng Hu wanted to say something, but his Empress Mother stopped him. “Empress Mother knows you have many questions, but don’t ask. You need to learn to observe. Once you understand, you will understand everything.”
Fanghua lovingly stroked Chenghu's little face, and seeing that he looked pale and thin, she felt very sad.
She hoped her son would be happy and healthy throughout his life. Since he was unable to inherit the throne, she decided to let Yinreng take on this important responsibility.
She believed that with Yinreng's abilities, he would definitely be a good emperor.
"Oh." Seeing that his mother was unwilling to say more, Chenghu also kept quiet and didn't ask any more questions. Just as his mother said, he would understand after seeing more.
Just as he realized that his father's love for him was not as great as his mother's.
After half a month of recuperation, Chenghu finally recovered.
Xiao Feng also awoke from her cultivation.
The first thing it did upon waking was to tell its master that its young master had obtained the fire spirit root and could now cultivate.
What it didn't say was that Heaven had chosen the young master as the vanguard of the world's upgrade, and his future cultivation path would be very smooth.
It doesn't speak because it's afraid its master will feel that the Way of Heaven is restricting the young master, and afraid that its master will lose his mind and go against the Way of Heaven.
Therefore, it's best to keep this matter a secret. After all, the master may not live as long as the young master. After the master leaves, the fate of this world will be determined by the young master.
"You mean my son can become an immortal?" You know, emperors throughout history have sought immortality.
However, from ancient times to the present, no emperor has ever succeeded in this endeavor.
Fanghua was naturally happy for her son who had this opportunity.
"Yes, Master. This time, the young master defied fate and gained the approval of the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps in the future, the young master will become the next Heavenly Dao of this world." Of course, Xiao Feng was lying to Fang Hua.
There was no other way; to be honest, it was afraid its owner wouldn't accept it and might do something foolish.
However, this isn't exactly a lie; at least once the young master's cultivation level increases, he could very well become the ruler of this world.
Strength is paramount.
"Good, good, good." Fanghua was very excited. In this way, her son Chenghu could live a long life, which was much better than being the emperor.
"Xiao Feng, do you think Yinreng might also have another opportunity?" If Yinreng can also obtain a great opportunity, then will her children all have a bright future?
In this way, she could be content with her second life.
She didn't plead for mercy, she only wished for her son's well-being.
"I don't know. There's still no sign of Master Yinreng. I don't know if Xiaofeng will have any opportunities."
Fanghua's eyes were red, and she knew she was being anxious. "It's alright, Yinreng will arrive in another year." Fanghua touched her belly and looked into the distance. "I will definitely pave the way for him, and no one can become a stumbling block for him."
She would not let any of those who slandered, defamed, or framed her, Yinreng, in her previous life get away with it.
Her first act of retaliation against the younger generation was to prevent them from being born.
Take Nana for example. She wanted to give birth to that scourge, Yinzhi. Haha, impossible.
Judging by the time, her belly should be getting bigger by now, but I wonder if she'll find out it's a stillborn baby by then.
That's right, Fanghua had Xiaofeng check and found that Nana was pregnant with a boy again, just like in her previous life. She immediately had Xiaofeng give her medicine.
Death is the lightest punishment in the world.
But for the living, that's not necessarily the case.
Given that the child was conceived during the mourning period, Nana will never be able to maintain the same arrogance and power as she did in her previous life.
Hui, haha, it also depends on whether she's a good match.
The Empress Dowager died early, and Chenghu changed his fate. Now all that's left is for her to give birth to Yinreng safely, so that she can let him experience the pain of being misled by love.
The eleventh year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign was a year of great harvest.
Whether they were old or new concubines, many of them were pregnant.
As winter approached, Nana started her attack.
Unfortunately, she gave birth to a stillborn child.
This was something neither the Emperor nor the Empress Dowager had expected; the child they had gone to such lengths to save turned out to be stillborn.
Emperor Kangxi feared that the stillbirth would damage his reputation, so he even considered getting rid of Lady Nana.
But the Empress Dowager stopped it in the end.
