Kangxi was afraid that he had the support of Khorchin, so he was not too fond of him. However, he never showed it on his face. He had no ambition, so he didn't care.
Things are different now. He will slowly reveal his talents. Why should he, a man of both civil and military talents and with absolute strength to back him up, be afraid of others?
To put it bluntly, even the prince should be careful when facing him. After all, Korchin is quite powerful, and the prince has to think twice before touching him.
"Mother, wasn't I too cowardly before? I allowed people to bully my wife at will. I feel so irresponsible. If they can bully my wife today, they can bully you tomorrow. I don't want to live like this anymore."
Concubine Yi looked at Yinqi in confusion. What did he mean by this? Why did she feel like she didn't understand? Could it be that the Crown Princess had angered him so much that he was stupid?
Concubine Yi never thought that Yinqi would have any thoughts about that position. She always thought that what he wanted was a quiet and peaceful life.
"I don't know what's in your mind, but you can do whatever you want. I support all your decisions.
Xiaowu, I feel sorry for giving you to the Queen Mother to raise. Fortunately, you have never been estranged from me, otherwise I would really regret it.
Now that you're married and about to become a father, I hope you'll be brave and forge ahead in everything you do. To be frank, even if you fail, it doesn't matter. I'll cover for you if anything goes wrong."
Seeing the genuine love in Concubine Yi's eyes, Yinqi smiled embarrassedly. He did blame him when he was a child. After all, everyone else was raised under the name of their mother, but he was not.
Although the Queen Mother loved him very much, she was not his mother after all, and she did not do some things herself, especially compared with Xiaojiu, the difference was far too great, so he was unwilling to get close to her.
It was only after he got engaged to Mu Sili that he gradually understood her. What mother in this world doesn't love her own children? He was narrow-minded before.
Fortunately, Concubine Yi did not hold a grudge against him, otherwise if the news got out, he would have ended up like Yinzhen.
"Mother, I will work hard. I'm not afraid of failure. What I'm afraid of is giving up before I even try. I'm ashamed of that kind of behavior."
Concubine Yi came to his side lovingly and gently held him in her arms to comfort him.
"As I said before, I support all your decisions. As long as you think it's right, then it's right. I have no objection. Even if one day you end up in an irretrievable situation, it doesn't matter. I will accept it.
But this is just what mother said casually. Don't feel pressured. You are the eldest son of mother and the emperor, and you are raised by the empress dowager. Mother believes that you have the ability to compete with the crown prince, but not now.
We all know how much the Emperor dotes on the Crown Prince. He won't touch him until he commits a heinous crime. Just look at the eldest brother and you'll see. He's just a stepping stone for the Emperor to train the Crown Prince."
I can't help laughing when talking about Yinzhi and Concubine Yi. It's true that he is the eldest prince, but he is not the legitimate son. Even if he is the eldest prince, he is not as good as the crown prince who is the legitimate son.
That would have been fine, but if Kangxi had not sent him out of the palace to be raised, it is hard to say whether he would still be alive today. Unexpectedly, Kangxi's attitude made him have other thoughts.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see how much Kangxi doted on his son, the Crown Prince. As long as he insisted on his own way and believed that he was different, Kangxi would be more optimistic about him.
There is also Concubine Hui. Since the death of Queen Tongjia, she has become extremely arrogant, as if Kangxi is going to make her queen in the next second.
If Kangxi had not felt that he was unlucky with his wife in recent years, there would have been another bloody battle in the harem to choose a queen. She was sure that all three of them wanted to be queen.
It's a pity that Kangxi doted on Concubine Yi the most and had already told her privately that he would not make her a queen again. At most, he would only make her a noble concubine.
However, no one knows who will be chosen as the Imperial Concubine. In her opinion, this position will never be given to Concubine Hui. If she becomes the Imperial Concubine, the Crown Prince will be under pressure.
Of course, this position would not be given to her. She knew her own limitations and knew that Kangxi would not give her a high position just because Yinqi had the support of Khorchin.
As Concubine Yi was thinking about it, her eyes suddenly lit up. What's more, if Mu Sili really lived up to everyone's expectations and gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, then she might be promoted to a noble concubine.
When she thought that she might become a royal concubine, a strange light suddenly flashed in her eyes, which made Yinqi stunned.
"What has Mother thought of? She is so happy. Are you so happy that Fu Jin is pregnant? Why don't you help Fu Jin take care of the baby after it is born?"
"Mother really wants to take care of the child, but it's not Mother's turn. You bastard, are you trying to be lazy? Mother is telling you, this matter is non-negotiable.
The children that your wife gave birth to for you with so much difficulty must be raised by her personally. Even if the Queen Mother said that she wanted to raise them, my mother would not agree.
You don't know the pain your child feels when he is taken away from you. Your mother doesn't blame you, but since she has been caught in the rain, she won't let her daughter-in-law get caught in the rain again.
Mother is determined to be the kindest mother-in-law in the palace, so you'd better not make any trouble, otherwise Mother will deal with you personally."
Concubine Yi had an unhappy look on her face. She really didn't expect that Yinqi actually wanted to give the baby in Mu Sili's belly to her to raise. Although she was very happy to help them raise the child, the consequence of doing so would alienate the relationship between them as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
She had been caught in the rain herself, so she would never let her daughter-in-law get caught in the rain. She had already provided for her daughter-in-law, and even if Kangxi said so, she would not agree.
"Mother, calm down. I was just saying that. This is my first time being a father and I have no experience. Aren't you worried that my wife and I won't be able to take good care of them? You are the same. You are so angry. Be careful not to get yourself sick."
My son has been in Yiku Palace for some time. It’s time to go to Shoukang Palace to visit the Queen Mother and the Concubine. If you miss the Concubine, you can go to Shoukang Palace and sit down. It’s a good opportunity for her to chat with the Yellow Horse.
Tomorrow, my son will begin his duties as requested by the Emperor. Although Shoukang Palace is safe, there are still areas that cannot be taken care of. I hope that Mother will pay more attention to Concubine Fujin to prevent her from being plotted against by others."
"Do I need you to remind me of this? My mother has eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. You should think about how you are going to implement your plan later."
After rolling her eyes at Yinqi, Concubine Yi ignored him. She would be better off thinking about what gift to give her granddaughter.
When she thought about the granddaughter she had dreamed of coming, she couldn't help but feel excited. Compared with her grandson, she really liked her granddaughter more.
