That's right, she must have snatched my son away, so the eldest grandson must have come from my belly."
"Fujin, what nonsense are you talking about? I also want to give birth to an imperial grandson, but I'm not destined to do so.
Now that the emperor's eldest grandson has been born, you should take good care of yourself and give birth to a prince for me when you are well. Why are you jealous of the Crown Princess?"
The eldest wife wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say it after seeing Yinzhi's dissatisfied expression. However, she just blamed Mu Sili.
If she gave birth to twins today, she would definitely be troubled by her mother-in-law when she went to pay her respects at the Yanx Palace tomorrow. If she had just given birth to a little princess, she wouldn't have been so embarrassed.
By the way, why was her daughter named a princess as soon as she was born, but she didn’t even receive this treatment after giving birth to two daughters?
The Emperor really favors the Crown Prince's line. Yinzhi is the eldest son after all. Isn't it natural that his eldest daughter should be conferred the title of Princess?
As she thought about it, she actually felt a little sad. If she didn't have her mother-in-law putting pressure on her, would her life be better?
"Fujin, Fujin? What are you thinking about? I've been calling you for a long time!"
"No, Master, I was wrong. I shouldn't be jealous of the Crown Princess. It's just that her daughter was given the title of Princess upon birth. Should I also go to the Emperor and ask for her help?
Although I was unable to give birth to the eldest grandson, the eldest princess is the eldest granddaughter. The emperor shouldn't be so partial."
Yinzhi looked at her as if she were a fool. Why did he, a bald prince, ask the emperor to make his daughter a princess?
"What's with that expression, sir? Did I say something wrong?"
"How do you think a bald prince like me can make the emperor confer the title of princess on my daughter?"
The eldest wife's face froze. She had actually forgotten that her master was just a bald prince.
Even though he had been to the battlefield, the emperor had never conferred a title on him. How could the daughter of a prince without a title be qualified to become a princess?
But she was unwilling to give up just like that. They were all princes' wives, and Mu Sili was just lucky enough to become the Crown Princess. If she were the Crown Princess, she could also earn a title for her daughter.
"Forget it, I'm going to be busy now. I won't be back tonight. Don't wait for me."
"Yes, I understand."
As the first wife expected, when she went to the Yanx Palace to pay her respects to Concubine Hui the next day, Concubine Hui set rules for her again.
"Big Boss, you entered the palace two years before the Crown Princess, yet you didn't seize such a good opportunity and let someone who entered the palace later snatch the chance to give birth to the Emperor's eldest grandson."
"Mother, it was the Crown Princess who stole my daughter-in-law's son. The eldest grandson should have come from my daughter-in-law's belly. If she hadn't suddenly become pregnant, it's possible that these twins would have been born from my daughter-in-law."
For the first time, Concubine Hui felt that her daughter-in-law was a little stupid. Otherwise, why would she talk nonsense for no reason?
What did she mean by the Crown Princess stole her son? Could she be saying that the Crown Princess used witchcraft to give birth to twins?
Thinking that the Crown Princess might have really used witchcraft to snatch the eldest grandson who was supposed to be born to the eldest wife, she suddenly felt goosebumps.
"You go back first. I'm going to the Palace of Heavenly Purity."
"yes."
The First Concubine left the Yanx Palace with great joy. This was the first time she felt happy since entering the palace.
Concubine Hui seemed unaware that she had been led astray by the First Wife. If Mu Sili really had used witchcraft, it would have been fine. But if not, she would definitely be punished by Kangxi for wrongly accusing the Crown Princess.
The lightest punishment is confinement and copying the palace rules, and at the worst, a few beatings with a stick and that's it.
But in serious cases, she would be demoted or even banished to the cold palace, and her family would be implicated. If Yinzhi was also implicated, it would be a loss.
When she arrived at the gate of the Qianqing Palace, Concubine Hui suddenly became clear-headed and woke up from the state of going to Kangxi to complain.
"This servant pays respects to Consort Hui. Are you here to see the Emperor? The Emperor has just returned, and I'm going to inform him."
"No, I'm just passing by. There's no need to inform."
At this moment, Concubine Hui just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Why was she so foolish as to believe the words of the eldest wife?
If I hadn't reacted and really gone in to complain, you can imagine what would have happened.
You are such a good lady, you actually instigated your mother-in-law to achieve your own goal. Just wait and see how I will deal with you when I get back!
Liang Jiugong watched Concubine Hui's expression change for a long time, then went back angrily.
"Come here, check the purpose of Concubine Hui's visit."
"yes."
When Liang Jiugong received the news from below, he frowned. What was the First Lady doing? Not only was she jealous that the Crown Princess gave birth to the eldest grandson, but she also spread rumors that the Crown Princess had snatched her son away.
The eldest wife gave birth five months ago. How did the Crown Princess take her son away?
It can be seen at a glance from the newborn child. Could it be that the Crown Princess was unhappy about giving birth to the Emperor's eldest grandson, so she made up an excuse out of desperation?
Kangxi was very confused when he saw him frowning as soon as he came in. What happened?
"Liang Jiugong, why are you frowning for no reason? Is there something wrong?"
After thinking for a moment, Liang Jiugong explained what had just happened to Kangxi.
"Concubine Hui is also a fool. She believes whatever others say. After all these years, she is still the same. If it weren't for the eldest brother, I would not have made her the head of the four concubines.
Fortunately, she figured it out on her own. If she had really come in and spread rumors about the Crown Princess, I'm afraid Shi Wenbing would have been making a scene before I could even say anything."
"Your Majesty is right."
"Since she has figured it out on her own, I will forgive her this time. It's the eldest wife who is a bit too talkative. I have a message for Yinzhi: take care of your own wife. I don't like daughters-in-law who spread rumors."
"yes."
Yinzhi was doing his job well in the Ministry of War when he suddenly received a warning from Kangxi, which completely stunned him.
"What did Fu Jin do? Why did the Emperor ask me to take good care of Fu Jin?"
Without waiting for the eunuch who was serving him to reply, he reacted.
I'm afraid that when Fu Jin came to pay her respects to my mother today, she said something unfavorable to the Crown Princess in front of my mother, and my mother was instigated by her to go to the Emperor to argue.
But if E Niang really went to the Emperor about this matter, shouldn't the Emperor punish Fu Jin and E Niang? Why was it just a light warning?
Or did my mother change her mind at the last minute and thus avoid punishment?
But Fu Jin really needs to take care of it. I've told her that it's none of the Crown Princess's business, so why doesn't she listen to advice?
It seems that I should give her the cold shoulder, so that she won't cause any more trouble and I won't be able to defend her.
The eldest wife was confined by Yinzhi until the full-month banquet of the twins. Being confined for no reason not only did not make her reflect on her actions, but made her resent Mu Sili even more.
