Hongli's expression was a little sad. If he knew why Yinzhen treated him like this, he would have thought of a solution long ago. Why would he wait until now?
However, he guessed that it was probably related to the newly born brothers. Nian E'niang was a capable woman. She had only been in the mansion for a year, but she had already completely won over her father.
After all, my mother has been in the mansion for many years, but she is not as good as Nian'er Niang, a woman who just entered the mansion. Alas!
Niuhulu had no idea what her son was plotting against her in his mind. She only knew that her plan had completely failed and she had no chance.
Yinzhen paid attention to the changes in the twins every day. This was the time when he was most relaxed.
Eight years later, Kangxi gradually felt unable to cope with the situation.
"Fourth Brother, my health is getting worse. From now on, you will slowly take over the affairs of the court.
I heard that Nian is pregnant again. That's right, she is a lucky person. Since she came into your house, you have had a lot more children.
Although most of the subsequent offspring came from her womb, she did not persecute anyone in the mansion, and that was enough.
In addition, Nian Gengyao is indeed a man of great talent. I hope you can make use of Nian Gengyao in the future. You will not go wrong if you listen to me.
Of course, we must also be careful not to let Nian Gengyao become too powerful, and we should keep him under control. His wife has given birth to a son, so let him be Honghao's study companion in the future."
Yinzhen understood what Kangxi meant. When he said about the child being a study companion, he actually just wanted to use the child to check and balance Nian Gengyao.
However, he believed that Nian Gengyao was not the kind of person who would surpass his master in achievement, because Nian Gengyao had privately asked for his resignation many times.
If I hadn't refused, I'm afraid the whole family would be living a happy life somewhere else now.
Thinking of this, Yinzhen smiled helplessly. He would rather believe that the struggle for the throne would occur again than believe that Nian Gengyao would do something that would shock the emperor.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I know my limits. I will handle Nian Gengyao's matter properly. Please rest first. I will not disturb you any more."
"Go back."
"Yes, I will take my leave."
In the Qingzhu Courtyard of Prince Yong's Mansion.
"Concubine, there's a commotion going on over there with Mo Yunxuan again. How do you think we should handle this?"
Ruolan was very helpless. Ever since the eldest princess brought back a man from the martial arts world five years ago and said she wanted to marry him, Concubine Li had been making trouble day and night, making the mansion extremely restless.
Originally, the eldest princess and her husband were going to stay in the mansion for a while, but because of her disturbance, they haven't returned for three years.
I don't know what's wrong with him today, he's making a fuss again.
"It's nothing more than feeling that the prince doesn't value them, mother and son, and she's just unhappy. Don't pay any attention to it. The prince is busy with menial affairs and can't spare his attention. Don't use those things to embarrass him."
"I understand."
"Sons pay their respects to Mother."
Honghao and Hongyan brought their brothers who were three years younger than them to pay their respects to Mu Sili.
They were triplets, two years younger than them, named Fuyi, Fuhui and Fupei, and the one she was pregnant with now was a little princess.
"Why are you guys here? Aren't you going to the front yard to accompany your father?"
"Seventh brother, look, Mother is really jealous. I said if I don't come to pay my respects to her again, she will be angry. Is that right?"
Honghao rolled his eyes. His mother was pregnant, and if they kept coming to pay their respects to her, she wouldn't be able to rest well.
Hearing that his mother was giving birth to a girl, he was very much looking forward to it. After the girl was born, he would definitely let her enjoy better treatment than a princess.
"How is Mother today? Is my sister making a fuss?"
"No, don't worry, mother is fine. I heard that the emperor hasn't been in good condition recently. If you are free, please go to the palace and keep him company."
"Okay, then my son will take my brothers to pay their respects to the Emperor. I believe the Emperor's condition will surely improve after seeing us brothers."
"Go ahead."
In the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Kangxi looked at his grandchildren who came to visit him with a happy face. When people get old, they like the feeling of having a house full of children and grandchildren.
Sure enough, the fourth brother's descendant was as loyal and righteous as he was, and handing over the country to him was the right choice.
Two years later, Kangxi fell seriously ill. He summoned all his sons and announced in front of them that Yinzhen would be the emperor.
"I know some of you are still dissatisfied with the Fourth Brother, but it doesn't matter. I won't see it soon, and I won't say anything deliberately.
But I still hope that you brothers can work together, this is what I have always hoped for."
"Emperor Father!"
"Fourth Brother, I hope you can keep your promise and treat your brothers well, so that they can all have a good end. As for Yinreng... well, it's up to you."
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I have sent someone to the clan residence to pick up my second brother. Please wait a moment longer. He will be here soon."
Yinzhen knew that Kangxi was always worried about the crown prince, so when Kangxi sent people to invite them into the palace, he sent people to the clan house to pick up the deposed crown prince.
The deposed crown prince re-entered the palace after ten years, and unexpectedly felt that everything and everyone had changed.
"Father Emperor, your unfilial son has come to pay his respects to you. Please open your eyes and look at your son."
Looking at the already aging Kangxi, the deposed prince let go of all his resentment towards him. All he could think about now were the scenes of the father and son getting along together when they were young.
"Is it Baoqing? It turns out that my Baoqing really came to see me. Baoqing, I am sorry for you. I am very happy that you can come to see me."
"I'm sorry, Father Huang. I was wrong. I couldn't resist the temptation and took the wrong path. I betrayed your trust in me. You will be fine, right?"
"It's good that you know you're wrong, Baoqing, be good. You're already a grown man and still crying. Be careful that they will laugh at you."
The deposed crown prince stopped talking, but tears kept flowing down his face. He could sense that Kangxi was on his deathbed.
Fortunately, he caught up, otherwise he would have lived in pain for the rest of his life.
A quarter of an hour later, Kangxi passed away in the Qianqing Palace, and everyone cried bitterly.
But life must go on, so twenty-seven days after Kangxi's death, Yinzhen succeeded to the throne.
Concubine Li was surprised that Yinzhen could sit on the throne. She never thought that one day she would become a high-ranking concubine.
However, she was not sure whether Yinzhen would make her the queen. After all, she and Mu Sili were both concubines, but she was inferior to Mu Sili in every way.
Thinking of this, she began to resent the unfairness of God, who allowed Yinzhen to have her and also let Mu Sili into the mansion.
But Princess Niohuru was very calm. She was destined to be a queen, so it didn't matter if she was not favored or did not become the queen. She was not worried at all.
Her son is a rare talent among men. As long as she has life left, she will become a real phoenix sooner or later.
Let Mu Sili be happy now, the position of Queen Mother will not be hers anyway!
