Chapter 146.
After the emperor went to Yonghe Palace, Defei became Depin.
But even more shocking things are yet to come.
On the second day, the emperor announced in front of all his ministers that the jade disc of the fourth prince Yinzhen would be registered under the name of Queen Tongjia.
When the news came out, all the officials fell silent.
Immediately afterwards, the prince's party headed by Soetu expressed strong opposition and knelt down to beg Kangxi to reconsider and not act impulsively.
But at the same time, the brothers Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei were also stunned by this sudden news. After all, Yinzhen was raised by Queen Tong Jia, but the jade disc had never been changed. Even though Queen Tong Jia wrote a letter to the Tong family before her death, hoping that the Tong family would protect Yinzhen in the future, the Tong family never gave in.
Therefore, after Queen Tong Jia passed away, Yinzhen was raised in Yongshou Palace by Kangxi, and no one in the Tong family spoke out to stop him. After all, there was really no need to stop him since he was a prince who was not from the Tong family.
But now the emperor suddenly changed his mind.
The two brothers Tong Guowei and Tong Guogang looked at each other and made up their minds.
The two brothers immediately stood up and agreed with Kangxi's decision, and then received angry glares from Soetu and his group.
If the fourth prince really became the legitimate son, they didn't believe that the Tong family would watch Yinreng sit comfortably on the throne of the crown prince.
By then, will there be peace in the court?
Soetu didn't believe that the emperor didn't understand.
More than half of the people knelt down, waiting for Kangxi to revoke his order.
As for the rest of the people standing, except for the Tong brothers who expressed their agreement at the beginning, the others did not express any attitude. Instead, they secretly glanced at Crown Prince Yinreng who stood at the head of the civil officials and said nothing. After all, this matter could most affect the interests of the crown prince.
Since the prince has not yet expressed his opinion, these people are naturally not in a hurry.
After all, they don't want to experience again the scene where the emperor and the prince collude with each other and watch them put on a show.
Kangxi looked at the scene below and snorted coldly.
Kangxi glanced at Yinreng, and Yinreng immediately understood what Kangxi meant.
Then, Yinreng stood up.
"Khan Amar, I agree with your decision."
The Crown Prince, in a handsome and graceful manner, respectfully clasped his fists and saluted towards Kangxi.
Those courtiers who had not yet expressed their opinions looked at each other.
Well, they became part of the play between father and son.
Soltu seemed even more excited than Kangxi when he announced his decision.
"Your Highness, please think twice!"
Yes, the emperor is now in his prime, and the prince is naturally the best son in his heart. But what about the future?
When the emperor grows older, will the prince still be the best son in his heart? I am afraid that by then, the prince will become the biggest threat to the emperor's throne.
But the Crown Prince is now taking his brotherly feelings into consideration, and helping the Fourth Prince will become the most powerful weapon to threaten the Crown Prince.
How can brotherhood be as important as the throne?
Aren’t there many examples of brothers fighting for the throne in ancient times?
What's more, the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince are half-brothers, which makes the gap between them even greater.
Soetu looked at Crown Prince Yinreng with disappointment, hoping that he could wake up in time.
Unfortunately, Yinreng inherited Kangxi's stubbornness.
Kangxi stared at Suo Etu, and his dissatisfaction grew. As expected, the crown prince should be kept away from the people of the Hesheli clan.
"Suo Etu, does my prince still need you to teach him?"
Kangxi attacked Soetu, and the originally noisy hall became quiet, with only Kangxi's majestic voice echoing in their ears.
