The wet nurse was satisfied. If anyone dared to drug her, he would have to bear the consequences. Although she was a good servant, she, as a servant, could influence the prince's mind.
Suo Etu thought he could rest easy without her? He was dreaming! She would be waiting up there to see what would happen to him!
"Your Highness, take care. I...I'll leave first."
The wet nurse died immediately after saying this, which made the prince hate Soetu even more.
Soetu had no idea that he had been tricked by her, and now the prince had no affection for him at all.
However, Kangxi learned everything that happened inside Yuqing Palace through the secret guards of the palace. At that moment, he actually felt guilty.
Poor Soetu was actually cheated by a nanny. If this matter were to be made public, I'm afraid he would be laughed at for a long time.
However, given the fact that he took the blame for himself, he decided to give Soetu some rewards, as an explanation to him for taking the blame for himself.
After all, since Soetu accepted his reward, he naturally had to support him wholeheartedly.
"Liang Jiugong, I have recently felt that Suo Etu's ability to do his job has improved. You can go pick some things and have someone send them to Hesheli Mansion as a reward to him.
Also, let Suo Etu go to the palace to comfort the Crown Prince. After all, the Crown Prince thinks he did it, so it would be good to let him confirm it."
"Yes, I'll go right away."
In Hesheli Mansion, Soetu looked at the reward sent by Liang Jiugong with a confused look on his face.
He hasn't done anything good recently, so why would Kangxi reward him?
"Please, Eunuch Liang, when you enter the palace, please help me convey a message to the Emperor. I feel unworthy of this reward."
"What are you talking about, Lord Suo? You are the emperor's most trusted minister. The emperor said that you should treat your most trusted ministers unfairly, even if you treat others unfairly. So take this reward.
By the way, the emperor asked you to come to the palace. The Crown Prince’s wet nurse has passed away, and His Highness is very sad. The emperor hopes you can comfort the Crown Prince.
You also know that His Highness is the crown prince after all. It is really embarrassing for him to be so sad and upset because of a nanny.
The Emperor originally wanted to go and appease His Highness himself, but if he really went, it would be embarrassing for that nanny, so I have to trouble you to go."
Liang Jiugong's expression was a little helpless, as if Kangxi really asked him to say that.
Soetu was already dissatisfied with the prince's wet nurse for instigating him, and when he heard that the prince was still sad for her, he felt unhappy too.
He really couldn't understand how such a smart daughter like Queen Hesheli could give birth to such a stupid son.
If he had not been the legitimate son, and the emperor had felt sorry for him for losing his mother at such a young age, he would not be qualified to sit on the throne of the crown prince now.
"Don't worry, Eunuch Liang. I will be in the palace soon."
"In that case, I will not disturb you any longer. I have to return to the palace to serve the Emperor. I will take my leave."
"Come here, send Eunuch Liang away."
As soon as Liang Jiugong left, Soetu's face turned dark.
Now the prince's behavior is really displeasing, it seems that we have to find a way to make Concubine Xi pregnant as soon as possible.
Although she was Empress Hesheli's concubine sister, it was better than having no one.
If Concubine Xi could give birth to a prince at that time, he would lead the entire family to support the prince born by Concubine Xi.
After entering the palace, he will send someone to tell Concubine Xi the good news. I think she will be willing to do so.
After all, she has always kept a low profile due to her relationship with the prince, so it is time for her to make a high-profile appearance in front of everyone.
At this time, Concubine Xi had no idea what was happening. She was determined to keep a low profile and wait for the prince to ascend the throne, and her second half of life would be secure.
After Liang Jiugong returned to the palace and told Kangxi that Soetu would go to appease the prince, Kangxi took him to Jingyang Palace.
"Your Majesty, why do I see you in such good spirits? Didn't you say the Crown Prince is deeply saddened by the death of the wet nurse who took care of him since childhood? Would you like to go and see her?"
"What should I do? If I have the time to comfort him, I might as well spend time with Xiaoqi, Xiaoba and Garudai.
You know what the prince has become after being instigated by that slave. It's better for her to die. I have already asked Suo Etu to comfort her, so don't worry."
"Suo'etu? You are so relieved. The Crown Prince was dissatisfied with Master Suo'etu a few days ago, and you asked him to appease the Crown Prince. I think you did it on purpose."
Kangxi blinked innocently. It sounded as if he didn't mean it if he refuted it!
"You can't wrongly accuse me. The children are watching. I have to save face."
Yinyou was already over two years old and could understand what adults said. After hearing what Kangxi said, he rolled his eyes and continued to play.
"Did you see it? Xiao Qi couldn't bear to watch it anymore. After all, the Crown Prince is the legitimate son. You should go and take a look. I will go with you."
Kangxi finally reacted. Mu Sili didn't want him to appease the prince. She clearly wanted to go to Yuqing Palace to watch the fun.
"I knew you couldn't sit still. Since you want to go, I'll take you there. I just hope the prince doesn't do anything out of line, otherwise I'll be angry."
"You don't believe in your own son? The prince is still young, you shouldn't be so harsh on him. Chunzhi, take good care of the princes and princesses. The emperor and I will be right back."
"Yes, your majesty, don't worry. I will take good care of the young masters. You can rest assured that with me here, the young masters will be very safe."
Kangxi was very satisfied with Chunzhi's attitude. He gave Liang Jiugong a look and Liang Jiugong understood what he meant.
After Kangxi took Mu Sili away from Jingyang Palace, many people came secretly to guard Jingyang Palace. These were Kangxi's secret guards.
Now that they are not in Jingyang Palace, it is natural to arrange for someone to protect them.
Inside Yuqing Palace, the prince looked at Soetu without any expression.
In his opinion, Soetu's action was just false sympathy.
Moreover, he came at the right time, just as the nanny left. He said that this matter had nothing to do with him, but he didn't believe it at all.
"Uncle, did you come to the palace just to comfort me? I don't need your concern. I'm fine. Please go back."
Soetu looked at the prince in confusion. Why was he so hostile to him?
"Your Highness, have you misunderstood something? I came here to comfort you on the orders of the Emperor. How could you send me away?
I am your great uncle, and everything I do is for your benefit. If you are not satisfied, you can talk to me."
The prince wanted to insist on driving Suo Etu out of the palace, but his personal eunuch stopped him.
“Your Highness, you cannot do without Lord Suo’s help now, so you’d better not go against him.
You should know how much the Emperor values Concubine Cheng and her son. Without Lord Suo's help, your road ahead will be difficult."
The prince was stunned. Indeed, he could not do without Soetu's support.
Before he took that position, he still needed to rely on Suo Etu. As long as he took that position...
