The palace of Consort Hui was not a monolithic place, so rumors spread that the eldest prince was unfilial, talked back to his mother, and made Consort Hui sick.
When the news reached Qixiang Palace, Wang Shu looked incredulous: "How could this be? Could you have misheard? I've met the First Prince before. He is a bit straightforward, but he is also a well-mannered child. Consort Hui dotes on the First Prince, and it's not just because of the two wet nurses!"
Su Mu: "Perhaps Consort Hui has taken the wrong medicine!"
That being said, Su Mu suddenly remembered the time she ran into the Imperial Garden not long ago. Could it be that Consort Hui felt that the First Prince was too close to the wet nurse and deliberately punished her?
The more Su Mu thought about it, the more convinced she became. Seeing Wang Shu's puzzled expression, she thought, "No way. The Empress is so kind-hearted. It must be Consort Hui who is making a mountain out of a molehill and going too far."
Once everyone was gone, Wang Shu finally broke into a big smile.
Consort Hui didn't want her to give birth to the child. She couldn't force Consort Hui's son back into her womb, nor did she want to dirty her hands by harming a child. However, since Consort Hui dared to harm her child, she would give her a grand show of "mother and son turning against each other."
Consort Hui sang so well; she listened with great interest.
On the other side, not long after Consort Hui woke up, she finally realized that she seemed to have been tricked. She immediately ordered people to investigate, but they found nothing.
She suspected Wang Shu, but when she investigated her, she found no clues, which made Consort Hui somewhat fearful.
Unable to find out the cause, Consort Hui had no choice but to let it go and try to mend her relationship with her son.
A mother and son naturally have no grudges that last overnight. However, the eldest prince has been labeled as unfilial because of Consort Hui, which may cause a rift in their mother-son relationship in the future.
You should know that Emperor Kangxi had a sharp tongue! It doesn't matter now, but if the eldest prince displeases Kangxi one day, such as by advising to execute the deposed crown prince as happened in history, then Kangxi will probably bring up the old matter again.
Then, haha! Just wait and see, she'll have her fun.
System: "Host, you're using a soft knife to cut flesh!"
Wang Shu laughed and said, "It's just a matter of tit for tat. She's a good person. I don't offend others unless they offend me. Consort Hui deserved what happened to her."
