Chapter 131 Mother
After leaving Cao's Mansion, Kangxi did not stay too long at any place along the way, and the southern tour team slowly moved towards the Forbidden City.
Concubine Niohuru was waiting at the palace gate with the concubines. After all, Kangxi was not going out alone this time, he also took the concubines' lifeblood with him. The concubines all stretched their necks, waiting and thinking.
Before the carriage stopped, Yuying couldn't wait to open the window and look out. She immediately noticed Concubine Niu Hulu who was at the front of the crowd.
Probably after Queen Tongjia died, Kangxi handed over most of the palace power to Concubine Niohuru. Concubine Niohuru now looks much more majestic and more eye-catching than before.
The carriage finally stopped, Kangxi got off with Yuying, and the carriages behind them also stopped one by one.
"Your Majesty, I respectfully welcome you back to the palace. Long live the emperor!"
"Everyone, get up."
"Mother——"
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, a shout came from behind, followed by a little fat boy running past Yuying.
Yin ran to Concubine Niohuru and hugged her.
"Mother, do you miss me?"
Concubine Niu Hulu looked at her son whom she had not seen for more than half a month. How could she care about Kangxi? She reached out and rubbed Yin's head, smiling at him gently: "Of course mother misses our Xiao Shi. Has Xiao Shi caused trouble to Concubine Jin outside? Does he miss mother?"
Concubine Niohuru glanced at Yuying who was beside Kangxi and nodded to her as a greeting, then turned her attention back to her son.
She and Yin had never been apart for so long, and when she saw him now, she couldn't bear to take her eyes off him at all.
With Yin taking the lead, the other princes also went forward to look for their mothers. Even Yinzhen and Yinsi stood behind Yuying after getting off the car.
For a moment, various greetings were heard.
Huipin was under house arrest, and Yinzhi could not see Huipin among the concubines, so he looked silent.
Yinzhi glanced at Yinreng beside him and saw that he looked normal. He did not confront him, but asked curiously, "Second brother, do you miss your mother?"
He hasn't seen his mother for almost a year, and doesn't know how she is doing now.
Yinzhi waited for Yinreng to answer his question. After all, compared to him, Yinreng was more pitiful. He had never seen his mother since he was a child. When he looked at other people's mothers, didn't he wonder what his own mother was like?
Yinreng was stunned. He didn't expect Yinzhi to ask him, nor did he expect Yinzhi to ask him this question.
He looked at the scene of the mother and son reuniting not far away, carefully felt his emotions, and then said: "I don't want to."
Yinzhi was about to jump up again, "Second brother, you are not trying to trick me, are you?"
Why was he the only one thinking about his mother? Yinzhi felt ashamed and angry for a moment.
Yinreng gave Yinzhi a look and said, "Why would I lie to you? If you don't want to, then you don't want to."
"Okay, second brother, you are such an unfilial son. You don't even miss your mother at all. Your mother must be very regretful to have a son like you."
Yinzhi and Yinreng really had nothing in common. They had just been getting along harmoniously for a few words when Yinzhi couldn't help but talk about Yinreng.
Yinreng looked at him again and ignored him.
He used to think about his mother.
After all, so many of his brothers had mothers who loved them, and even Yinzhi, who always made trouble for him, had a concubine Hui who loved him. So, he asked Khan Ama at that time, why did others have mothers, but he was the only one who didn't?
Khan Ama held him in his arms and sat in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, and told him again and again that his mother loved him very much, and told him not to envy others for having mothers, because he still had Khan Ama.
When he grew older, he learned that his mother had died giving birth to him, and he never asked Khan Ama about his mother again.
Under Kangxi's meticulous care, Yinreng had gradually come to terms with the early death of his mother. After all, as Kangxi said, he still had his Khan Father.
Kangxi did not interrupt the concubines from greeting their sons. After all, he wanted to see a harmonious relationship between mother and son.
But they couldn't stay at the palace gate forever, so after the temporary greetings, everyone naturally returned to their own palaces. Even Yuying had to take Yinzhen and Yinsi back to Yongshou Palace.
Kangxi tried to keep her, but Yuying left without looking back.
After walking for a distance, Yuying looked back.
After being rejected by Yuying, Kangxi took Yinreng and Yinzhi away like conscripted men.
Yuying looked from afar and thought that if it weren't for the two of them following him, Kangxi would really look like a lonely old man.
"puff--"
Yuying was amused by her own association.
Yinzhen and Yinsi couldn't help but look back, wanting to see what made Yuying laugh out loud.
When he looked back, he could only see Khan Ama, the Crown Prince, his second brother and his eldest brother.
The two looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
Yinsi couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, what are you laughing at?"
Yinzhen didn't say anything, but looked at Yuying curiously.
Yuying was embarrassed. She couldn't tell the truth that she was making fun of Kangxi. She just found a random excuse to send them away.
"I just thought about how I haven't been back to Yongshou Palace for a long time, and I was happy for a moment."
The two brothers looked at each other again. Why did they feel that their aunt was not smiling because of this?
But both of them tacitly agreed not to ask any further questions and just continued talking along with Yuying's words.
"Aunt, me too! I miss the fried chicken made in our small kitchen!" Yinsi said, and swallowed his saliva figuratively.
This made Yuying and Yinzhen laugh.
"Then let's ask the kitchen to make fried chicken for our little eight tonight." Yuying answered him, and then looked at Yinzhen, "What about little four? Is there any dish that little four wants to eat? Let's ask the kitchen to prepare it as well."
Yinzhen was stunned and glanced at Yuying. He could often sense that Yuying paid special attention to him, which was not as casual as she was towards Xiaoba.
Sometimes he couldn't help wanting to tell Yuying that she could just treat him the same as Xiao Ba. But Yinzhen was a man of few words and didn't know how to start.
So he smiled at Yuying and said, "Aunt, I want to eat Ruyi rolls."
Yuying immediately agreed happily: "Okay, let the kitchen make a Ruyi roll for our little four as well."
"I don't know if your Khan Ama will come to dine, so we'll just add another pot of roast duck for him, and let the small kitchen do the rest."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, aunt."
When it was time for dinner, Kangxi arrived as expected. When he saw the duck on the table, he immediately realized that it was ordered by Yuying specially for him, and his heart softened.
After the meal, Yinzhen and Yinsi left, and Kangxi also took a rest in Yongshou Palace.
