Kangxi was worried that the Crown Prince would think he didn't want to get involved in the Crown Prince's marriage, so he specially explained: "Baocheng, it's not that your father doesn't care about you. It's just that the in-laws you chose for me... well, whenever it comes to Hexue, Suhetai is a complete scoundrel."
You've forgotten about the time he beat up Suo'etu; he didn't even bother to find out the truth!
Although Father Emperor is the sovereign and he is the subject, when it comes to He Xue, neither of us knows who is the sovereign and who is the subject!
Even the Emperor can't force He Xue to marry you; who knows what kind of schemes Su Hetai will devise!
康熙打量着太子，“保成，你要多练练，争取能抗揍些！谁让咱们是求着和雪嫁给你呢！
There's not much the Emperor can do to help you now, so you'd better pray for your own good fortune! The Emperor will have Physician Liu by your side at all times.
"Father, after hearing your words, I feel like I'm not going to ask for a marriage proposal, but to ask for a beating!" The Crown Prince felt that Su Hetai wasn't as unreasonable as Kangxi said; he just doted on Hexue too much.
Putting myself in his shoes, if he had a daughter in the future, I'm sure he'd find fault with everyone.
“Baocheng, if you weren’t the only one who could marry Hexue, Father Emperor would not have arranged a marriage between you and Suhetai!”
"Father Emperor has been waiting to see who will become in-laws with Suhetai, but he never expected to become the laughingstock of himself," Kangxi said helplessly.
"Father, I will definitely take good care of you in the future!" The Crown Prince could only keep saying nice things.
"Baocheng, how does Hexue treat you?" Kangxi felt that as long as Hexue wanted to marry the Crown Prince, even if Suhetai disagreed, he would have to bite the bullet and agree.
The Crown Prince said with a troubled expression, "Father, He Xue is still too young. I'm worried that saying too much will frighten her!"
The Crown Prince did not want to force He Xue. He kept looking for opportunities to express his feelings, but He Xue did not seem to take it to heart.
"He Xue was spoiled rotten by Su Hetai! She's a bit naive!" Kangxi knew that He Xue was more innocent and pure than others! You could tell from He Xue's clear and innocent eyes that she had been pampered since childhood.
"Baocheng, keep up the good work. As long as Hexue is willing to marry you, Su and Tai will have no choice but to agree."
Back then, Tong Guowei didn't want your mother, Tong E'niang, to enter the palace, but he couldn't stop her from doing so!
So your key now is to get He Xue to agree to marry you, you know?
"The little girl is easy to please; just write her a letter or send her some gifts!" Kangxi told the Crown Prince about his glorious past.
"Oh, so that's how Father Emperor tricked Mother Tong back then!" the Crown Prince said with a smile.
“This isn’t deception, it’s expression!” Kangxi corrected.
"Father, you can't reveal the truth to Suhetai first!" The Crown Prince felt that with Kangxi's groundwork laid, it would be easier for him to go to Suhetai.
"Alright! I understand!" Kangxi replied.
"Your Majesty, I thank you!" the Crown Prince said happily.
Seeing the Crown Prince's happy expression, Kangxi was also pleased. He Xue was the person the Crown Prince had chosen, and he was determined to help the Crown Prince achieve his goal. He had also consulted the Living Buddha, who said that the Crown Prince and He Xue's birth dates and times were very compatible, and that they were a once-in-a-century match. Therefore, he was determined to make this marriage happen.
Kangxi looked at the Crown Prince with a silly grin on his face and sighed inwardly, "Baocheng, he's really pitiful. He's over twenty and has never been with a woman! When he was in his twenties, he already had several sons!"
He still needs to help Bao Cheng, otherwise, given Bao Cheng's personality, who knows when he'll ever be able to marry He Xue!
By this time, He Xue had already changed her clothes.
Emperor Kangxi smiled with satisfaction as he looked at Hexue dressed in women's clothing. Hexue's appearance was inherited from the Tongjia clan. If Hexue looked like Suhetai, he would rather have the Crown Prince become a monk than let the Crown Prince marry Hexue.
"He Xue, you've become even more impressive in the years since I last saw you! You actually dared to steal Jing Shu's token!" Kangxi said sternly.
"Uncle Emperor, I know I was wrong! Please don't punish my elder brother!" He Xue immediately admitted her mistake.
"Father!" The Crown Prince looked anxiously at Kangxi, wondering if his father would punish He Xue.
"If there is a mistake, it must be punished!" Kangxi said to Hexue.
"Father, He Xue did this because she was worried about me. Please punish me if you must!" the Crown Prince pleaded.
"No, Your Highness, you're already injured!" He Xue didn't want the Crown Prince to get even more hurt.
"Alright, you two don't need to argue anymore. I know what to do!" Kangxi said mysteriously.
"He Xue, considering your concern for the Crown Prince, I will not pursue the matter further. However!"
He Xue knew that Kangxi would say that, but the important part was what came next.
