"Father, I know I was wrong, but I want to know why I am inferior to the Fourth Prince. He clearly didn't want to participate in the fight for the throne in the first place, so why did you choose him?"
As soon as Yinzhi said this, Yinzhi, Yinsi and the other two turned their eyes to Kangxi. They also wanted to know.
"I didn't decide from the beginning to let the fourth son inherit my position. You are all my sons, and everyone has a chance.
But compared to you, only when the fourth prince comes to power can others survive, just like Yinreng. Although I am angry with him, I have never thought of taking his life.
But you are different. You are actually not bad and you have the ability to sit in that position, but your minds are not as broad as the fourth one.
No matter who of you sits in that position, the others will definitely be suppressed, or even pay with their lives. I don't want to see this happen.
It’s true that the fourth brother didn’t want to participate in the fight for the throne at first, but the prince wanted him to take this position, and he also wanted to protect his family, so he finally joined in.
It's just that you excluded him from the beginning, so naturally you didn't notice his transformation. But this is good. I hope that when he ascends the throne, you will all assist him well."
It turns out that I lost because of my ruthlessness and disloyalty!
Indeed, as Kangxi said, no matter who of them sits in that position in the future, the others will have no chance to succeed and may even lose their lives.
They tried so hard to fight for that position, to put it bluntly, just to prove in front of Kangxi that they were not weak.
"Father Emperor, I really can't bear to give up on you. After all, I've fought so hard for so long, how can I give up so easily?
But you have already taken a fancy to the Fourth Brother, and the Fourth Brother has never blamed me for harming him. I accept this and am willing to guard the border and contribute to the Qing Dynasty."
"So do I, your son."
Except for Yinsi, everyone else said with shame that they would assist Yinzhen and push the Qing Dynasty into a prosperous era.
"Eighth Brother, what are you thinking about? Don't you support Fourth Brother as emperor?"
"Father, I believe I am more suitable for that position than Fourth Brother. Why don't you consider me? Is it because my family background is too low that you look down on me?"
Yinsi had been pretending to be a handsome young man for so many years, but his defense was finally broken when Kangxi directly decided to marry Yinzhen.
He has planned so much and just wants that position. Now he hasn't really taken any action. How can Kangxi directly deny him?
Seeing that Kangxi was a little angry, the others took a step back, even Yin'er and Yin?, who had been following Yinsi, took a step back.
Myna's mood swings today are very different from before. If they still stay by his side, they will probably be implicated.
Anyway, they had no intention of competing for the throne, they just joined in because of their good relationship with him.
Since the Emperor has already chosen the fourth brother as the heir, there is no need for them to continue to follow him and cause trouble. What if things go wrong?
And they are not blind. After he said that, the emperor's face was obviously unhappy.
You are all married people, so you still have to consider your family and not rush to take the lead.
"Do you really want to know everything? I'm afraid the consequences will be beyond your ability to bear."
Yinsi's face turned pale. What did this mean? Did it mean that he didn't even have the qualifications to know the truth?
As the saying goes, you should die with a clear mind. Even if you really haven't considered him, you should tell him the reason!
"Father Emperor, please enlighten me, otherwise I will live an uneasy life."
Kangxi had no choice but to say, "You brought this upon yourself."
"You think you are of low birth, so you always present yourself as a gentleman in front of others. But you forget that you are a prince, and there is no distinction between high and low among princes.
I know how hard you have worked over the years to avoid being looked down upon by others. To be honest, I admire you.
But you shouldn't have formed a clique to fight for that position, and even dragged the Ninth and Tenth Brothers into it. From the moment you took advantage of their brotherhood towards you, I kicked you out."
Yinsi's body was a little unstable. Does this mean that he was pushing himself further and further away from that position?
"The most important thing is that you not only formed a clique for personal gain, but also plotted against the Crown Prince. Do you think I don't know that it was you who caused the Crown Prince to be deposed?
I just thought that you are also my son, and he did go too far, so I deposed him.
"Old Eight, you are a very good person. I don't want you to go astray. When Old Four ascends the throne, I will give you a good ending. Don't think about things that don't belong to you."
"I was abandoned so early. Father, if Fourth Brother wasn't here, would you have chosen me?"
"Won't."
After hearing Kangxi's firm "no", Yinsi finally accepted the fact.
"I understand, your son. I'll take my leave."
After Yinsi left, Yin'er and Yin'e were severely scolded by Kangxi.
It's a good thing to value friendship, but they were very annoyed that they were played around by Yinsi without even realizing it.
Since this matter was made public, Yinzhen found that no one tried to assassinate him anymore. Judging from the news secretly sent by Liang Jiugong, others had tacitly accepted his position.
Time passed quickly and Mousse Li gave birth.
"Concubine, you are pregnant with twins, so premature birth is normal. However, you are already nine months pregnant, which is considered a full-term birth. The young masters will surely be healthy and fine."
"This concubine knows, start delivering the baby, I can't hold it any longer!"
Can't help it? What can't you help when giving birth?
Before the midwife could react, two slippery babies were born one after another. She was confused, and so was Mu Sili.
She has given birth so many times, but this is the first time that the birth was so smooth. He is worthy of being her big son!
"Congratulations to the Concubine, you have two healthy little princes!"
Ruolan reacted quickly and checked the health of the two fetuses immediately, then reported to Mu Sili.
"Ruolan, bring them over here."
"yes."
"Hey, Xiao Liu looks like the prince, but Xiao Qi doesn't look like my wife or the prince. I don't know who he looks like!"
Ruolan was speechless. What nonsense was the concubine talking about? How could this young master not look like the prince or her?
It was the midwife who noticed something.
"Concubine, the Seventh Prince looks a bit like the late Empress Xiaoyi, but I can't remember what she looked like, so let His Majesty take a look."
"Okay, Ruolan, carry them out for the prince to see."
"yes."
As soon as he heard the child crying, Yinzhen was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
"I, the servant, congratulate the prince. The concubine has given birth to twins."
"Come here, reward!"
Yinzhen excitedly took the two children, and when his eyes fell on his youngest son, he was shocked.
"Empress Huang's mother?!"
