In the residence of the Fifth Prince Hongli.
After the eunuch who delivered the message left, Prince Hongli sat in silence for a long time.
Finally, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Actually, it all started when the Emperor made the seventh prince, who had just gotten married, attend court and perform official duties.
He already had some premonitions, but he just didn't want to admit it.
As for feeling resentful, I'm definitely extremely, extremely, extremely resentful!!!
When Father Emperor first ascended the throne, I was his most valued son.
At that time, the Emperor bypassed his third brother Hongshi and had his younger brother Hongshi handle many things on his behalf.
Back when the Emperor was just starting out, he didn't value the former crown prince very much either.
Hmm, is that Prince Li, his second uncle Yinreng?
Moreover, Second Uncle Yunreng was raised by his maternal grandfather.
Even his cousin Hongxi grew up in the presence of his maternal grandfather.
The emperor's most beloved grandson was his cousin, Hongxi.
But what happened after that?
The second uncle, Yinreng, the former crown prince, was deposed from his position twice.
In the end, he was imprisoned for life until his death.
Sigh, even though I was once valued by my father, the Emperor.
However, it still can't compare to how much the Emperor values his second uncle, Yinreng.
Alas, if only Emperor Grandfather hadn't lived so long back then.
It's highly likely that Second Uncle Yunreng won't end up like that.
Similarly, if his father, the Emperor, hadn't lived that long, there would have been no reason for the seventh prince to exist.
After all, among his three older sons—his third brother Hongshi, himself, and his sixth brother Hongzhou—he was the most outstanding.
He was clearly the most suitable candidate to be the next emperor.
Prince Hongli sighed again as he thought about this.
However, some people do something because they are unwilling to accept the situation.
I'm not that stupid!!
I have self-awareness.
You should know that your imperial father is a ruthless man who fought his way out of the struggle for the throne among the nine princes.
Moreover, after the Emperor ascended the throne, he never showed any leniency in dealing with his uncles.
However, the most important thing is that his father, the Emperor, is a person with a very strong desire for control.
He has been on the throne for so many years now.
His control over the imperial court and the harem was absolutely beyond anyone's imagination.
The sticky rod is used by the blood-dripping device, and the military secret service is involved.
Yes, and there's also the secret memorial system.
Sigh, it's possible that Father Emperor found out as soon as I took any action.
...
In the residence of the Sixth Prince Hongzhou.
At this moment, Sixth Prince Hongzhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Father Emperor has chosen the seventh son.
Hmm, choosing the seventh child is a good choice.
Let me tell you the truth!
If one had to choose between the seventh prince and the fifth prince, Hongli, as the next emperor...
I would still choose the seventh child.
After all, she knew her fifth brother, Hongli, far too well.
Well, let me put it this way!
Both he and his fifth brother, Hongli, knew about each other's dark past.
If he really does ascend the throne and become emperor then.
As the younger brother...
The seventh brother was not particularly familiar with his older brothers.
Of course, he also had no conflicts with his older brothers.
Well, this is all thanks to the secret succession system established by the Emperor back then.
...
Pure, unique, and beautiful.
It has been more than seven months since Ituma Shushu was conferred the title of Consort Shu.
That day, Ituma Shushu took her two-year-old daughter for a stroll in the garden.
Speaking of the eldest princess, we must mention the second princess.
Yes, that's right. Five months ago, the Seventh Prince's Consort, Niohuru, gave birth to the Second Princess. Both mother and daughter are safe and sound.
In other words, Prince Hongzhao is now the father of two princes and two princesses.
Furthermore, since she was conferred the title of Consort Shu, the imperial aura of the Seventh Prince Hongzhao has undergone many changes.
Ituma Shushu also knew that everything had changed since she became Consort Shu.
Because that means that Prince Hongzhao is much closer to that position.
However, she dared not relax at all.
After all, it's not the last moment yet, anything can happen.
And most importantly, Emperor Yongzheng's lifespan is already limited!
At this moment, information about Emperor Yongzheng's lifespan involuntarily surfaced in Ituma Shushu's mind.
[Yongzheng]
Lifespan: 4 years and 5 months
Lifespan cannot be exchanged for vitality points.
[Note: Merit points can be redeemed]
"Ah," Ituma Shushu couldn't help but sigh softly.
However, Emperor Yongzheng must have sensed it too!
After all, he knows his own body best.
Moreover, given Emperor Yongzheng's abilities as an emperor, apart from the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy...
Ituma Shushu believed in folk healers and such, and he must have recruited them as well.
Moreover, Emperor Yongzheng was an emperor with an extremely suspicious nature.
She didn't believe that Emperor Yongzheng would completely trust the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital!
Ahem, that's why Ituma Shushu said that Emperor Yongzheng had feelings.
That's because she felt that Emperor Yongzheng was already making arrangements for some things.
In the second month after their wedding, the Eighth Prince Hongxu and Prince Guo Hongxuan were already assigned by Emperor Yongzheng to serve in the imperial court.
So these past few months, the three brothers have been extremely busy.
Hongxu and Hongxuan, those two brats, have come to me to complain about their troubles several times.
After strolling around for a while, Ituma Shushu took the eldest princess to rest in the garden pavilion.
