"If I can recover before I reach the age of twenty, I will definitely make an exception and confer upon you the title of Nine Thousand Years Old!"
These words made his personal eunuch shudder and kneel on the ground. Nine thousand years old? What an honor! He accepted it!
After that, he kept running around for the prince, aiming to find a miracle doctor to solve his infertility problem, but he failed to find one after five years of searching.
Yuqing Palace.
"Alright, no need to look for one anymore. Even if I can't have children, it doesn't matter. At worst, I can just adopt a son from the royal family. As long as I can take that position, I'll win.
The Emperor has not cared about me in all these years, but hasn't he deposed me from the throne? If that's the case, it's clear that he still hopes I'll inherit his throne.
Since the Emperor values me so much, I cannot refuse his kindness. However, I cannot possibly support the fourth son's child as the crown prince. I hate them!"
In the prince's heart, Mu Sili and her son were already regarded as enemies, as was Kangxi. The reason he said this was because he was worried that someone would go to Kangxi to make things difficult for him.
There are never any secrets in the palace. He believed that this conversation would soon reach Kangxi's ears, so he deliberately said such words to let him know how much resentment he had towards Mu Sili and her son.
If Kangxi still cared about the father-son relationship between them, he would definitely alienate them from each other. If he didn't care, then when he found a suitable heir, that would be the time for him to take action against them.
Ever since Concubine He gave him a sterilizing drug that year, he knew that there was no family love in this world and that he was the only person he could trust.
Since God treated him unfairly, he would treat himself fairly. He didn't believe that anyone could touch him when he was on guard everywhere.
As long as he can hold on until the day he ascends the throne, both Mu Sili and her son and Hesheli will have to pay the price for their actions.
The prince stubbornly believed that it was all Mu Sili's fault that he was in this situation today, so he simulated countless Mu Sili's fates in his mind.
But indirectly, he could recall the daily life he spent with her in Yonghe Palace when he was a child, and suddenly, he felt a little jealous of Yinzhen.
"I am the only legitimate son in the palace, and the Emperor has said that he will not appoint another empress, so why did he make her the empress?
I can't figure it out and don't want to think about it anymore. I'm not a good person. I just know that if I don't think about myself, I'll be the one who suffers.
Since I can't be a good person, then I'll be a bad person for the rest of my life. It's better than being bullied and humiliated!"
"Your Highness, don't worry, I will not give up. As long as I live, I will follow you."
Judging from the prince's attitude, he will confront them sooner or later. All he needs to do is show his loyalty. As for the prince's success or failure, that depends on himself.
If it succeeds, then his position as the Nine Thousand Year Old will be secure. If it fails, it doesn’t matter. He still has a dead body and can take it at any time.
When you think about it this way, it seems like a good deal. Using this miserable life to fight for a road to wealth is worth it no matter how you think about it.
"Besides myself, the only person I trust now is you. I believe you won't let me down. Go ahead and get busy."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
When he was the only one left in the room, he began to analyze the younger members of the royal family who could become his heir. After selecting for an entire afternoon, he still couldn't choose a suitable person.
He was a little angry, feeling that God was playing a joke on him. Just at this time, news came that Kangxi was going to grant Yinzhen a marriage, which made him become much gloomier.
"I haven't found a Crown Princess yet. The Emperor doesn't want to find me a Crown Princess first, but wants to find me a Consort instead. What's going on? Does he think I can't have children and is ignoring me?
No, it must be that the Queen mentioned this to the Emperor that he suddenly showed himself to Yinzhen. If I don’t go to the Ganqing Palace again, will anyone in this palace know of my existence?
Come, get ready. I'm going to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to pay my respects to the Emperor. Also, bring the large Buddha statue that my uncle gave me earlier. I'm going to give it to the Emperor."
"yes."
In the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Kangxi was discussing the candidate for the Fourth Concubine with Mu Sili. He was more optimistic about Fei Yanggu's daughter Ulanara, but Mu Sili was more optimistic about the noble lady of the Fucha family.
Neither of them gave in, which made Liang Jiugong and Qiaoying a little overwhelmed. But they were the masters, and they, as servants, could not say anything and could only watch.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has arrived."
"What is he doing here? Didn't I tell you not to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity all the time if you don't have anything to do? I'm very busy and don't have much time to deal with him."
"I don't know about that, but it looks to me like they're here to give you a gift."
"Giving gifts? This is really strange. That kid would think of giving me a gift. I'm afraid the sun is rising from the west, right?"
Kangxi didn't take it seriously. Since the prince was made infertile by Concubine He, their relationship as father and son had become much more strained.
He did not depose him from the position of crown prince, but that did not mean he still wanted him to be the crown prince. He just wanted him to help Yinzhen hold this position.
If he behaved himself, he would make him a king and grant him land in a few years, so that he could stay away from the hustle and bustle of the capital. But now it seems that this is no longer possible, and the prince will not give up.
"The prince probably came here this time because he heard that we are going to choose a wife for Xiao Si. You think so too. The prince is already old enough, it's time to decide on a wife."
"He can't even have children. I can't possibly harm a girl from a good family, can I? I want to marry someone, not make an enemy!"
Kangxi looked at Mu Sili speechlessly. If the prince was fine, he would have arranged a marriage for him long ago. Why would he wait until now?
But these past few years have made him completely give up on the crown prince. He decided to depose Yinzhen from the crown prince position after his wedding. He has realized in these years that Yinzhen is much more suitable than him.
"Your son pays his respects to the Emperor and Empress. I received a small ornament a couple of days ago, and thinking Your Majesty would like it, I sent it to you. Do you like it?"
When Kangxi saw the giant Buddha, his brows immediately furrowed. Did he want to send this evil prince to the West to see the Buddha?
If that's the case, don't blame him for disregarding the father-son relationship. He has many sons anyway, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't have this evil son.
"The Emperor seems to dislike it. Does he despise this giant Buddha? If the Emperor dislikes it, then there's no need for it to exist."
With a snap, the giant Buddha statue shattered into pieces. Kangxi clearly saw the madness in the prince's eyes.
"How dare you! This is the Palace of Heavenly Purity. If you dare to act so presumptuously here, how will you behave when you return to the Yuqing Palace? No wonder you wantonly killed people to silence them. You thought I wouldn't blame you!"
