During this time, Yin felt very frustrated. The little girl would get angry for no reason and would always glare at him. He no longer had to wake her up in the morning, and the perk of kissing her was gone, replaced by constant "labor reform".
Looking at the dejected Fourth Prince, Qingyan felt a little better. A few days ago, Fei Yanggu was worried that Qingyan's actions would anger the Emperor. The next day, when Kangxi summoned him, he was prepared to apologize. However, Kangxi had a cheerful expression and told Qingyan to do his best to torment the Fourth Prince.
Immediately, Fei Yanggu felt in his heart that the Yan family was actually quite kind.
"Pfft!" Qingyan spat out a mouthful of tea as she listened to the news Sulan was telling her.
From that day on, Yin lived in misery. He not only had to complete the tasks assigned by Kangxi, but also had to take care of Qingyan and continue to work for her to make her happier.
At this moment, Yinzhi heard a gust of wind that sounded like a whirlwind, which improved his mood considerably. Within the palace, Yinzhi was considered the most favored, as he was second only to the Crown Prince in terms of his ability to please Emperor Kangxi.
"He Shun, give this invitation to Yin!" Yin Zhi looked at his hand. The old lady of the Dong E clan was about to celebrate her birthday. As a prince who was being raised in the Dong E clan's residence, he had to put on a certain show.
After receiving the invitation, Yin simply nodded to He Shun without saying much. In Yin's view, the reason why Dong Eshi made such a big fuss was to let the world know that her family was raising a prince.
The contrast between the two residences, and the departure of the Ulanara family's residence, greatly improved Yin's mood.
"Little girl, I'll take you out tomorrow night. There's sure to be some delicious food!" Seeing that Qingyan still seemed indifferent, Yin had no choice but to try and win her over.
Su Peisheng covered his face and stood behind, wondering if he could say he didn't recognize the master in front of him.
Qingyan's eyes widened in surprise. Was this the Fourth Prince, Yin?
No, no, no! She must have opened it wrong.
"Don't be surprised, it was sent by my third brother. It's probably related to how you've been making things difficult for me." Yin shook his head helplessly. Who told his third brother to think that Kangxi had given up on him? Otherwise, Kangxi wouldn't have intervened to help him when he was being lectured by the eldest daughter of a minister.
Yin looked at Qingyan with a smile. He had been cold and aloof since childhood and rarely showed any extra emotions. This time, Kangxi did not stop Qingyan because his mother wanted to watch the show.
Qingyan secretly rejoiced. Fei Yanggu brought Kangxi's instructions. Facing his son, whose expression had remained unchanged for many years, Kangxi hoped that Qingyan could give him a good punishment. Even if his son suddenly changed his expression, even if it was a fawning smile, Kangxi would think it was good.
"Don't do it again next time. If you have anything to say, you have to tell me. You have to maintain the demeanor of a lady in front of His Majesty and the Imperial Concubine." Qingyan's explanation made Yinxin very happy.
Qingyan only reveals her true emotions in front of people she knows well. Doesn't this prove that she is someone close to her?
With this in mind, Yin had long since given up on the idea of ​​confronting Fei Yanggu and his two sons. E'shuo and Saito were rarely home, and whenever they did return, these two were the ones who most enjoyed causing trouble.
"I understand. Just treat Father Emperor the same way you treat your second uncle and others!" Yin couldn't forget Consort Tongjia's admonition. As a junior, Kangxi didn't want his children to fear him.
He actually hoped that the younger generation would treat him as they would any ordinary person, since the struggle for the throne was truly cruel.
In recent years, the Three Feudatories have continued to cause trouble, and everyone from the imperial palace to ordinary people lives in fear.
The possibility of something happening at any time was ever-present, and the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War were among the busiest departments. Although young, Yin understood that this was not the best time to start something, which was evident from the fact that his aunts were getting married.
On the day of the banquet, Yin got up early. The day before, Qingyan had prepared all the congratulatory gifts that her family wanted to give to the old lady.
He had to admit that his father had found him a good wife.
Young Qingyan was already capable of managing the entire household. Previously, he had considered having his mother find a governess to properly teach Qingyan manners and household affairs. After all, the relationship between Lady Jue Luo and Qingyan wasn't particularly good.
Now, he felt that his previous worries were in vain. This time, he was also putting Qingyan through a test. His father wanted to see Qingyan's abilities before considering his lifelong commitment to Muscone.
The two sat in the carriage. For the first time, Qingyan was unusually reserved. Today, Fei Yanggu did not accompany her. Instead, he entrusted this important task to Yin, asking him to accompany her to Dong Eshi's place.
She pouted. Her father was well aware of the argument between Dong E Shi and her, yet he still insisted that she go to Dong E Shi's house in person. Wasn't this an attempt to submit to Dong E Shi?
At this moment, Qingyan felt extremely depressed. If she had known it would turn out like this, she would have been more patient and thought about it more carefully.
"Little darling, let's go visit them. Later, I'll take you to the night market!" Yin didn't like going to ministers' homes. If it wasn't someone from Yin Zhi who came in person, Yin would refuse outright.
He believed that the prince's status was too high, and that ministers' elders should not be invited to stay for a meal unless they were from the prince's family.
Qingyan's eyes lit up immediately.
"You said it! I don't like staying there." At several socialite gatherings, the eldest daughters of Lady Dong'e did not leave a good impression on Qingyan, especially Lady Dong'e's younger sister, who was practically challenging Qingyan's authority.
"I promise!" Yin stroked Qingyan's hair. He knew perfectly well what Dong'e's younger sister had done, but he had kept it a secret to avoid angering Fei Yanggu.
Today, Dong E's residence is decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers. When Dong E Qishi learned that the Fourth Prince would also be coming to assist him, he was filled with fear. This prince was one of the emperor's most valued princes.
Dong Eqishi understood that his youngest daughter, who was born of his own lineage, had always hoped to marry Yin and become his primary consort. His eldest daughter became the third consort, and the fourth consort would certainly not be from the Dong E family.
The previous generation, the ninth brother of the Aisin Gioro family and the Dong E family, has already seriously affected the children. In front of the Empress Dowager, the Third Princess Consort's life will definitely not be easy.
"Father, Father, is the Fourth Prince coming?" The second daughter, Dong'e Wanting, ran in from outside. The news that the Fourth Prince's primary consort had been confirmed, along with the exposure of the Emperor's incognito participation in the camping trip at the Ulanara residence, made Dong'e Wanting feel terrible. She was no longer respectful and polite to her elder sister, but instead often glared at her fiercely.
It was as if Dong Eshi had stolen something precious from her. Dong E Wanting felt resentful. She was only two years older than her, so why was she treated so differently?
"Wanting, the Fourth Prince will be coming, and he'll be bringing Princess Ulanara with him." Dong Eqi looked at his youngest daughter, his eyes filled with regret.
