After the slow train stopped, Yin got off first and found that Yinqi had only brought the Fifth Prince Consort; the two princesses and the concubine's daughter were not there, which pleased Yin.
"Father, that person didn't come!" Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen was very unhappy. The person who wanted the reward didn't come. Did he have to go to the Fifth Master's mansion to arrest him?
"There will be other opportunities in the future!" Yin put the child on the ground and turned to help Qingyan up.
"Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen, come over here, Grandma." Consort Tong beckoned to Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen, and had Shu bring the little girl over directly.
Shu quickly came over, bowed to Yin and Qingyan, and then carried Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen over.
"Fourth Prince, please hand the young prince over to this servant." Li Dequan also came over, picked up Yiken'e, and brought her to Kangxi. Kangxi took her directly and smiled as he spoke to Yiken'e.
When Yinqi saw the twins, he felt immense envy. He thought that if the twins were his sons, Emperor Kangxi would definitely take good care of his family.
“Fourth Brother, Yiken’e is truly favored by Father Emperor, even more so than Hongxi,” Yinqi said directly.
Yin gave Yinqi a cold look. The matter of his daughter hadn't been settled yet, and Yinqi was already trying to provoke Yiken'e again.
“How can he be compared to the Crown Prince’s offspring? Yiken’e is still young. Father Emperor just feels that Yiken’e is the legitimate son, so he will definitely pay more attention to him. If the Fifth Prince has a legitimate son, Father Emperor will definitely pay attention to him as well. Moreover, not only legitimate sons, but also legitimate daughters are very favored. Songkelierha, Shulu and Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen, all three of them have received Father Emperor’s care!” Yin directly hit Yinqi’s sore spot. Legitimate sons and daughters are Yinqi’s greatest pain.
Back then, Consort Yi went too far. In order to maintain Yinqi's connection with the Guarjia clan, she directly poisoned the Fifth Prince's wife. The Eighth Prince's wife was already recuperating, so the Fifth Prince's wife stayed close by. After the Eighth Prince's wife faked her death, the two of them got along very well.
"Fourth brother, what you said is quite heartwarming. Everyone knows that your family will soon have a legitimate son!" Yinzhi said, supporting Yinqi.
Qingyan stood behind Yin, her wide court robes unable to conceal her slightly protruding belly. The other consorts caught a glimpse of Qingyan's abdomen out of the corner of their eyes. Qingyan clasped her hands together slightly and placed them on her belly, feeling the baby's movements.
"I've also heard news about my sister-in-law, so, Third Brother, you should hurry up too," Yin said directly.
Yin helped Yin Genjueluo Shi over, and Songkelierha was taken to Consort Hui's side.
"Third brother, are you making things difficult for fourth brother here?" Yin's relationship with Yin had improved.
"Brother, I didn't mean anything by it. I just congratulated Yin Neng on having another legitimate son," Yin Zhi quickly corrected himself.
Yinqi stood to the side without saying a word.
"Fifth Brother, what brings you here?" Yin asked directly.
"Brother, I got off the carriage and came over to say hello to Fourth Brother. Where is Songkelierha?" Yinqi quickly explained.
"Mother sent her over to keep her company. What about your illegitimate daughter? Didn't you bring her over a couple of years ago?" Yin also heard Songkelierha talk about Yinqi's illegitimate daughter.
Yin was practically showing off, because having a legitimate daughter meant at least there was hope of giving birth to a legitimate son. However, there was still no news from Yin and Yinqi, so everyone thought there was something wrong with the primary consort.
Consort Yi had done some underhanded things to the Eighth Prince's wife, which was known to the upper-class families. They all felt that Consort Yi looked down on the Fifth Prince's wife and that it was only natural for her to target her.
"Brother, Father Emperor said that only the eldest son or eldest daughter can attend the ancestral worship ceremony; no one else is allowed to come!" After receiving the imperial edict, Yinqi knew it was aimed at him.
Yin coldly said, "If Father hadn't issued the decree, you probably wouldn't have realized this yet."
"Brother, don't say things carelessly. I've already started preparing with my primary wife for a legitimate son," Yinqi said directly.
The Fifth Prince's wife has also been taking care of her health recently. Lady Guoluo prepared a lot of medicinal diet recipes, which the Fifth Prince's wife copied all of them. She also found an old Chinese medicine doctor who was proficient in these kinds of recipes to take a look and found that the medicinal diet recipes were all for treating uterine cold.
Before the selection process, the family specially invited some imperial physicians to examine the pulses of all the women to be selected, and they were all in good health.
"You women should go to Mother's place first!" Yin glanced at Lady Yingenjueluo and instructed her to lead the women to Consort Tong's place.
Since the wives of the princes launched their attack yesterday, Yinqi has really changed a lot. He has become much gentler towards the fifth prince's wife, and after returning home, he even took back the power from the two princesses.
"Fifth sister-in-law, has Fifth Master changed?" Yin Genjue Luo asked as soon as he walked away.
"Sister-in-law, you and Fourth Sister-in-law really saved my life! When Master returned, he immediately reprimanded the two princesses, and even his favorite daughter was punished!" Fifth Princess Consort was very anxious when she learned that the child had bullied Songkri Yierha and Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen. "Sister-in-law, that child has always been raised by Princess Guarjia, so he's become a bit spoiled!"
“Following the direct line to compete is a rule we’ve been taught. If the governesses in your household are incompetent, the Guarjia clan won’t just stand by and do nothing!” The Crown Princess, standing behind the crowd, felt somewhat embarrassed when she heard Yin Genjue Luo mention Guarjia Gege.
"Thank you, Your Highness. The Prince has already sent someone to teach her a lesson. Actually, it wasn't Princess Guarjia's fault. It was the nanny around the little princess who instigated her, which is why the little princess acted this way." Fifth Prince's wife rejected the Crown Princess's words, saying that it was a matter of her own residence and had nothing to do with the Guarjia clan.
Qingyan noticed that the tone of voice was gradually becoming more distant. Back then, the Fifth Prince's wife had always been by the Crown Princess's side and was the best helper along with the Third Prince's wife.
Now, the Fifth Prince's wife basically no longer associates with the Crown Princess. On the other hand, after being reprimanded by Yinqi, Princess Guarjia discovered the benefits brought by her family and has been constantly extending olive branches to the Crown Princess.
"Fifth sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, you can talk to me like before. My relationship with Princess Guarjia is not very close!" The Crown Princess thought that the Fifth Prince's wife, Yu Qi, was estranged because of Princess Guarjia's family letter.
"Your Highness, you flatter me. Inside the palace, you have to help Consort Tong with her affairs. You don't need to worry about these little matters at Fifth Prince's residence," Fifth Prince's wife said with a sigh.
Qingyan remained silent, but the Crown Princess clearly glanced at her, as if she had taught her these words.
"Princess Consort of Prince Zhi, how are you and your fourth sister-in-law? You are too heavy-hearted, you should rest more!" The Crown Princess's tone contained a warning. Lady Yin Genjue Luo and Qing Yan were only stunned for a moment, and did not say anything at all.
