"I feel that the Crown Princess's family background is not very high. If she is given a princess of the Niohuru clan, the inner court will probably not be peaceful."
Emperor Kangxi was displeased. "When we chose Shi Wenbing's daughter as the Crown Princess, it was to win over Han officials. But her family background was indeed ordinary. We can't expect all the women who entered the palace later to have a lower family background than her, can we? Besides, you are the Crown Prince. No family background is considered high."
Seeing that Kangxi was getting angry, Yinreng said nothing more. He only thought that if the woman really entered Yuqing Palace, he would keep a close eye on her.
[Alas, in the end, it's because the legal mother only has one daughter and no sons, which is why she can't stand firm in the inner courtyard and even among her sisters-in-law.]
Yinreng glanced at Hongxi in his swaddling clothes and immediately had an idea.
The Crown Princess has no son, and Hongxi has lost his birth mother, so...
"Father, it's a bit troublesome for me to take care of Hongxi myself. I'd like to raise him under the Crown Princess's name and raise him as her legitimate son in the future."
Hongxi was licking his fingers when he heard this and was completely stunned.
If it weren't for his usual wide-eyed, innocent and adorable expression, everyone would surely have noticed just how comical this infant prince's facial expressions were.
Kangxi did not immediately express his opinion, but he had to admit that he also adored the little boy Hongxi.
If he continues to be the eldest son of a concubine, it will not be conducive to his future development.
"If you've made up your mind, then we'll do as you say."
The conversation between the father and son did not spread, but they tacitly agreed to deal with the matter after returning to the palace.
That night, Guo Luolu Minglu returned to her tent and began to throw a tantrum.
"What is Guarjia? If she hadn't become the Crown Princess, she wouldn't even be qualified to pay her respects to me."
Yinzhi heard him say this as soon as he entered, and his face immediately darkened.
After instructing the guards outside the tent to keep watch and not allow any outsiders to approach, he then inquired about what had happened.
Upon learning the whole story, Yinzhi felt a headache coming on.
"Although she is the Crown Princess, she has not provoked you. Why do you have to make things difficult for her? Do you think that just because the Crown Prince is indifferent to her, you can kick him while he's down?"
Guo Luoluo Minglu didn't say anything, but that was clearly what she was thinking.
"You must understand that the Crown Prince may look down on her, but you cannot. Your disrespect for the Crown Princess is an insult to the Crown Prince."
While helping Yinzhi change his clothes, Guo Luoluo Minglu grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"It's fortunate that the Crown Princess is dead, otherwise..."
"Shut up!" Yinzhi was completely enraged.
He glared angrily at Guo Luoluo Minglu, unsure of what to say next.
Guo Luoluo is clearly a prominent clan, so how come their children speak so thoughtlessly?
If these words get out tonight and Emperor Kangxi finds out, he'll be in serious trouble, even if he doesn't die.
Seeing that Yinzhi's expression was not good, Guo Luoluo Minglu had no choice but to shut up.
Meanwhile, in the Crown Princess's tent, she looked at the baby He Yuzhu was holding and felt her heart melt.
Even the look of surprise on his face carried a hint of uncertainty.
"Your Highness really wants me to take care of Hongxi?"
He Yuzhu nodded with a smile, "Of course it's true. His Highness the Crown Prince even specially sent the young prince's wet nurse along."
The Crown Princess immediately smiled and took the child. Looking at the baby in her arms staring at her with wide eyes, she felt her heart, which had been heavy and restless, finally settle down.
"Now that the young prince has been delivered, this servant will take his leave."
Wenying, the head maid of the Crown Princess, personally escorted He Yuzhu out, and slipped him a bulging purse as she did so, whispering, "The Crown Princess adores the little prince, and is naturally overjoyed to be able to take care of him personally."
He Yuzhu understood the meaning behind those words and immediately smiled and said, "I understand, I understand everything. I will naturally tell His Highness the Crown Prince when I report back later."
When Wenying entered the tent again, she saw the Crown Princess carrying Hongxi and walking back and forth, with the wet nurses and others serving nearby all smiling.
"Your Highness, His Highness the Crown Prince values the young prince very much. Now that he is willing to entrust the young prince to your care, he must have a plan."
"Granny Gui, who was by the Crown Princess's side, said with a smile."
Wenying smiled and said, "Yes. Since the little prince was born, His Highness the Crown Prince has been taking care of him personally. Now that he is willing to be sent to the Crown Princess's side, he must have a plan."
The Crown Princess had some thoughts in mind, but she wasn't sure.
"It's good no matter what."
During the rest of the trip, Hongxi rode in the same carriage with His Highness the Crown Prince and Emperor Kangxi during the day, and stayed by the side of the Crown Princess at night.
Everyone seemed to have gotten used to this pattern. Even Guo Luoluo Minglu only showed resentment, but dared not say anything sarcastic again.
Just as everyone was about to reach Rehe, a commotion suddenly broke out in the convoy.
【Ahhhh, could it be an assassin?】
Yinreng clearly sensed Hongxi's unease; he even began to twist his body frantically, as if he wanted to run away.
[We're doomed. This assassin is from the White Lotus Cult; he's clearly aiming for a fight to the death.]
Yinreng grabbed Hongxi and stood in front of Kangxi, then lifted the carriage curtain to look outside.
Outside, swords were already drawn. Liang Jiugong and He Yuzhu stood on either side, each holding a weapon, but they were clearly trembling.
Yinreng shoved Hongxi into Kangxi's arms, then pulled out a dagger from his pocket and was about to rush down when Kangxi swiftly pulled him back.
"Baocheng, what are you doing?"
