After breakfast, Yin accompanied Qingyan to the study, where the two copied Buddhist scriptures together. Yesterday, when Qingyan returned, she told him everything that the Tenth Prince's wife had said.
After pondering for a long time, Yin directly asked Su Peisheng to invite Imperial Physician Yuan and ask for leave from Kangxi.
"Fourth Prince, do you think that young prince might be who?" Qingyan thought for a moment. If a similar situation were encountered, how would Yiken'e handle it?
Yin put down his pen and looked at Qingyan's curious expression.
“If it were me, I would have done the same!” Yin replied confidently.
The child is still young, and if they are not checked frequently, it is impossible to discover the problem. The investigation was delayed, and during this time, it is entirely possible for tampering to occur.
"I never expected there would be a maidservant who would marry in place of a princess!" Qingyan asked, looking at Yin.
"Logically speaking, this is not allowed, unless a prince takes a liking to her from the beginning and eventually begs the Empress Dowager for help." Yin thought for a moment; such a thing would be very difficult to do.
“So, if Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen were to encounter a similar situation, shouldn’t we…” Qingyan was more concerned about her daughter’s situation.
Yin looked up at Qingyan. She was bathed in sunlight, her almond-shaped eyes filled with determination and pleading.
"Yes, if everything is arranged properly, then that person can marry the one they love!" Yin naturally compromised as well.
Qingyan clasped her hands together and looked at Yin happily. As long as he made a promise, the child would definitely be alright.
"What happened to Xinghutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen?" Yin asked curiously.
"Sigh... I was thinking about my daughter as soon as I got there!" Qingyan simply shrugged.
The two continued copying the Buddhist scriptures in their hands. Su Peisheng stood at the door, hesitating whether to go in and report.
When Yin looked up, he saw Su Peisheng and quickly called him in.
"Master, something's happened. Our informant in Mongolia says the person they brought back is Li Xu's youngest son, and his wet nurse even brought back some incriminating evidence against the Third Master!" Su Peisheng said cryptically.
What?!
Yin paused his brush above the inkstone, and a drop of ink fell directly onto it.
"Su Peisheng, is this true?!" Qingyan looked at Su Peisheng in surprise. They had thought it was a joke, but they hadn't expected it...
"Master, this servant would never lie!" Su Peisheng said anxiously.
"Has the person who brought back the news been exposed?" Qingyan quickly put down his brush and asked Su Peisheng.
Su Peisheng shook his head. Logically speaking, it shouldn't have been exposed so quickly.
"Have someone arrange it immediately, get someone out of there as soon as possible, and remember to send them to the Yuelai Inn so they can leave under the cover of night!" Yin thought for a moment and concluded that it was unlikely that the person would be very safe there.
"Master, this will harm the Fujin's shop!" Su Peisheng said helplessly.
"The situation is urgent, don't think too much, send the message immediately!" Qingyan didn't say much more.
"Little darling, we're going to the imperial palace!" Yin said to Qingyan.
Later that evening, a carriage sped from Yin's villa toward the imperial palace. At a street corner, a shop window opened, and a white carrier pigeon flew toward Mongolia.
Inside the imperial palace, Emperor Kangxi and Consort Tong were watching the twins practice calligraphy. Hafeng sat on Consort Tong's lap and looked at Emperor Kangxi.
"Fourth Master and Fourth Princess are here!" Li Dequan walked in, saw the looks in the eyes of the five family members, and said helplessly.
Kangxi nodded, preparing to let Yinzhen in.
After the two quickly bowed, Kangxi noticed Yin's slightly anxious expression and hurriedly dismissed the people around him.
Yin dared not delay and recounted Su Peisheng's report in detail.
"I understand. You two are still too impatient. Someone must have sent word of your arrival over there." Kangxi pointed to the seats below and told the two of them to sit down.
Yinwei frowned slightly; neither he nor his son were in a good mood.
"Father, when we leave the palace, let's take Hafenga with us back!" Yin said.
Emperor Kangxi looked at the little one in Consort Tong's arms and nodded with satisfaction. Recently, Consort Tong had paid much less attention to him, as it had all been taken away by Hafeng'a.
"Xuan Ye, aren't you going to send someone to deal with this first?" Consort Tong didn't take Kangxi's expression seriously at all.
"Let's leave it alone for now. Back then, Grandmother Empress said that he wouldn't contact Jiangnan!" Kangxi also felt that the Empress Dowager's actions were a bit outrageous.
At that time, the two princesses of marriageable age were summoned to the Cining Palace. The prince took a fancy to the lady-in-waiting beside the princess. The Empress Dowager had no choice but to grant them a marriage.
"We also need to mention it to the Empress Dowager. Back then, it was the Empress Dowager who issued the decree for Grandmother's idea!" Consort Tong pondered for a moment, realizing that the matter needed to be resolved as soon as possible.
Yin and Qingyan sat obediently to the side, listening attentively to the arrangements made by Kangxi and Consort Tong.
"You two hurry up and arrange for your spies to come back safely. Remember, they must return unharmed. We still need evidence against this person!" Kangxi moved the ring on his hand, deciding to wait until the others returned before proceeding.
"Father, is Li Xu's insistence on not letting go related to this child?" Yin still admired Li Xu.
Under torture, he managed to hold on and say nothing. The source of those "medicines" was cut off by Li Xu. If it weren't for the Tenth Prince's wife speaking up, the case might have really been closed.
"The tenth prince said that his wife was also terrified. After seeing the letter, she quickly sent someone to reply!" Kangxi chuckled. When Yin reported this, his teeth were chattering.
"Father, my tenth sister-in-law is really scared. She looked terrified when she talked about it yesterday!" Qingyan said with emotion.
Emperor Kangxi chuckled. Knowing too much about such royal secrets would lead to being silenced. The Tenth Prince's wife was probably just worried about her family.
"You two stop talking. This matter hasn't escalated to that point yet," Kangxi said, touching his thumb ring.
A hint of relief appeared on Yin's face; Kangxi had given his promise.
"The evidence against Li Xu has not yet been fully collected. You two have spared some of his illegitimate sons and daughters, which means Li Xu has at least had descendants!" Kangxi said with emotion.
In Kangxi's heart, he really had some concerns, at the very least he couldn't let those who had accompanied him in his youth be without an heir.
Now that these people have betrayed him and been punished by the law, he cannot show favoritism.
"The third prince has been ruined!" Kangxi never expected that they would turn their attention to the princes.
"Father..." Yin saw that Kangxi was emotionally unstable and wanted to comfort him.
