Emperor Kangxi, accompanied by the Crown Prince, arrived outside Consort Wuya's room. He overheard the conversation inside but did not rush in. Instead, he stayed outside to continue listening.
The Crown Prince felt that it was rather indecent for the Emperor and Crown Prince of the Great Qing Dynasty to eavesdrop on each other!
Forget it, since even Father Emperor doesn't care, why should he? And if the censors find out, Father Emperor will protect him!
"You hate Fourth Brother? He's your son!" He Xue asked incredulously.
"I don't have an ungrateful son yet! He wasn't my son when he was taken to Chengqian Palace. He was Tongjia Qingyao's son!"
He's not close to me, so why should I care about him?
If it weren't for Yinzhuo, I don't know how I would have survived. I asked him to help Yinzhuo more; he's his own younger brother, and even the Emperor has high hopes for Yinzhuo—otherwise, why would he name him Zhuo?
But that rebellious son actually said that the Emperor was simply giving a name and had no other meaning whatsoever! He told me not to have any other ideas.
"I don't believe it! The Emperor doted on me so much back then; he must have treated Yinzhi differently! He's the one who ruined Yinzhi! It's him! How can I not hate him!"
Emperor Kangxi, who was listening at the door, was also speechless. He really just wanted to choose a name, so how could Lady Wuya have come up with so many ideas!
"You are the one who harmed the Sixth Prince, why are you blaming the Fourth Brother!"
You always use the Sixth Prince's illness as an excuse to lure the Emperor's uncle to Yonghe Palace. Is the Sixth Prince really that weak? He's sick all the time!
Your aunt once warned you not to have any wicked thoughts about the Sixth Prince, otherwise she would take him to the Prince's residence.
You then tearfully complained to your uncle, the emperor, that your aunt disapproved of you and wanted to separate you and your mother.
I don't know how you sowed discord between my uncle, the emperor, but the next day he was furious with my aunt!
"You're always trying to sow discord between your aunt and your uncle, the Emperor. You shouldn't be staying in Yonghe Palace; you should be in the chamber pot!" He Xuetong recounted Wuya Guiren's crimes.
Kangxi felt a little embarrassed by the Crown Prince's gaze. He remembered what Xue had said. At that time, Lady Wuya had cried to him with tears streaming down her face, but he hadn't thought much of it and assumed it was his cousin's fault, which was why he had gotten angry with her.
Looking back now, it seems that every time Lady Uya sent someone to find him, it was because Yinzhuo was sick, but he was actually going to see Yinzhuo, and before he knew it, he was on the bed.
Kangxi felt that his child had become a tool for Uya to gain favor, while he and Uya seemed to be on the opposite side. Uya could summon him at will and dismiss him at will, and he would always go to Yonghe Palace eagerly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was like a male prostitute in a brothel.
Kangxi felt as if he had swallowed a fly, and if he didn't want to hear what else Uya had to say, he would have dealt with her right now.
"It's not that I'm stirring things up, it's that Tongjia Qingyao is too proud. She considers herself a noble lady of the Eight Banners and doesn't want to take these tricks seriously, nor does she want to explain to the Emperor!"
Men are all the same; they all like gentle and weak women. The emperor is a man too, and so is he! As long as the emperor is happy, you can have anything!
"Moreover, Tongjia Qingyao takes love too seriously. Talking about love in the palace and having feelings for the emperor is unrealistic!" Consort Wuya said mockingly.
Kangxi then realized that Consort Wuya's deep affection for him was all fake; they were all masters of acting, and he was the only one who had acted like a fool.
Kangxi felt that he was eating the plate of flies from earlier, spitting them out, and then about to eat them again. It was disgusting.
"My aunt treats everyone with sincerity, so everyone in the palace speaks highly of her!"
"What's the use? Only what the Emperor says is good is truly good!" Consort Wuya said disdainfully to He Xue. "You've just spent too much time with Tong Jia Qingyao, that's why you're so naive!"
"Your uncle, the Emperor, speaks highly of you, but you're still just a nobody! What goes around comes around, and no one escapes the wrath of Heaven!" He Xue said sarcastically.
"I'm the way I am now because of you, you little bitch."
The Emperor promised to make me a concubine, but you always ruin my plans.
"Why did you go to the palace? Did you think that just because you call the Crown Prince your sister, they'll really treat you like one? You're so naive, just like that vile woman Tongjia Qingyao!" Uya shouted almost frantically.
The Crown Prince, worried that Xue might get hurt, asked, "Father, shall we go in?"
"Wait a little longer!" Emperor Kangxi also wanted to know if Consort Wuya had poisoned Consort Tongjia.
"You've ruined my plans time and time again, so I shouldn't have been lenient with you and let you die slowly like Tong Jia Qingyao."
I will kill you all, so that no one will dare to interfere with my plans. The Emperor will then bestow upon me the title of Consort and grant me a higher status.
No one will say anymore that I only gained the Emperor's favor because of Tong Jia Qingyao!
"Yinzhen deserves to die too; he is the disgrace of my life!" Consort Wuya was like a madwoman.
He Xue felt that if Consort Wuya hadn't just given birth and was still very weak, she might have come down and strangled her.
Seeing Wuya Guiren's madness, He Xue felt that it was about time, and that all her efforts had been worthwhile.
