But could such words be said casually? Of course not, it would affect the relationship between father and son, so he waved his hand and asked him to leave. If he stayed any longer, he felt that his image as an emperor would collapse.
"Go back, I also have to deal with official business. I'm so busy every day, and I don't know when you can help me. I haven't had a relaxing time in a long time. If possible, I also want to take a rest."
Yinzhen had a bad feeling. Could he respond to this? No, so it was better to slip away as a courtesy.
"Your Majesty, you have worked hard. My son is still young and cannot help you with these matters. However, my second brother has been taught by you and will definitely be able to help you. Why don't you ask my second brother to come over? This way, you won't have to work so hard.
My son has to go back to congratulate Mrs. Song on being promoted to concubine, so I won't bother you in the Palace of Heavenly Purity. When Liang Anda comes back, he will definitely take good care of you, so you won't be too tired.
Of course, if you think your son is wrong, you can also ask someone to accompany you. This way, you will be in a good mood and will be able to handle memorials with ease. Do you think your son is right?
If you don't like it, you can reject your son's suggestion. After all, he is just talking and he is not asking you to do it. You cannot doubt his good intentions.
By the way, Father Your Majesty, the wife is under house arrest, and there is no one to take charge of my courtyard. So before coming to the Qianqing Palace, I went to the Chengqian Palace to ask Nanny Tong to help me take care of it for a few months.
Madam Tong has not been in Chengqian Palace these past few months. Please arrange for more people to look after Chengqian Palace. I am worried that without Madam Tong watching over me, the palace servants in Chengqian Palace will not do their job properly."
"I understand. You have a good idea, go back."
"Yes, son, I'll take my leave."
Liang Jiugong came back just after Yinzhen left, his face full of smiles, which showed how happy he was with Mu Sili's reaction after he announced the decree to her.
"What are you laughing at? How come I didn't know when you, Eunuch Liang, became so unable to control your facial expressions? Weren't you very patient before? It's been so long since you came back, and you're still laughing!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being so embarrassed. I was so amused by Concubine Song's reaction that I couldn't recover. I have a small request, and I hope Your Majesty will agree to it.
In the future, let me be responsible for bestowing rewards and favors on Concubine Song. Concubine Song is a wonderful person. When I served her in the palace before, I thought she was cautious and prudent, but I didn't expect that she had a very fierce temper in private.
You don't know that I didn't notify anyone when I went there, but I heard her complaining about the Fourth Prince outside her courtyard gate. I was very angry at first, but after listening to her for a while, I couldn't get up.
I thought she was taking advantage of the Fourth Prince's absence to express her ambitions, but I didn't expect that all she said was that he would have a son and a daughter and live a happy life. In my opinion, the position of your concubine is well deserved.
Looking at the entire harem, except for the late Empress Xiaoyi, no one has ever regarded the Fourth Prince as so important. Of course, it may also be because the Fourth Prince is her support, but I am really not speaking for her. You know my temper.
Also, when I told her the news that you had appointed her as the Fourth Prince's concubine, she actually suspected that I was falsely conveying the imperial edict. After all, she had never heard such words from the Fourth Prince.
However, I asked her carefully and she said that when she was pregnant, the Fourth Lady had promised her that if she gave birth to a prince, she would ask you to ask for the title of Concubine for her. She always thought that this would happen after she gave birth.
I can't help myself when I think of her reaction at that time. It's so funny. I really can't help myself. I never thought there would be such a pure heart in the harem."
Liang Jiugong was talking non-stop and didn't notice the twitching corners of Kangxi's mouth at all. How come this guy became stupid after going to the prince's residence? Can he still serve him well in the future?
Serving him is a technical job. If he continues to act as stupidly as he is now, he thinks he should get a personal eunuch to serve him.
After a long time without receiving a response from Kangxi, Liang Jiugong finally realized what he was saying. His face turned slightly pale, but soon returned to normal.
Kangxi was a wise ruler. It was impossible for him to be embarrassed just because he said something he shouldn't have said. He must have been overthinking it just now. It was getting late now. He should just focus on serving and not think about anything else.
"Why don't you say anything? I thought you could talk until dark. But you are right. I have good taste, otherwise I would not give her to Xiao Si. As long as she is well, the position of concubine will definitely be secure.
I heard she's pregnant with twins. Go pick out some things from my private storehouse and send them to her when she gives birth. This will be a small token of my love for the children."
Liang Jiugong looked at Kangxi in bewilderment. Wasn't this favor a bit too much? The child hadn't even been born yet, and the reward had already been prepared. If the princes' wives knew about this, they would definitely make a scene!
"Why, my words are no longer effective? If that's the case, then I'll find someone else to do this job."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I thought I heard it wrong and haven't realized it yet. Please don't be so picky with me. Isn't it a little early to prepare the reward now?"
"Is it too early? I don't think it's too early. Since Xiao Si likes it, it's okay for me to pay more attention to it. Okay, go get ready."
"Yes, I will prepare it right away."
Liang Jiugong had discovered that from now on, Yinzhen and others would definitely be valued by Kangxi, and he would have to be more respectful when facing him.
Inside the prince's residence, Yinzhen looked at Mu Sili, who was still in a daze, and burst into laughter, which earned him a resentful look from her.
"How can you still laugh, my Lord? I am almost dying of anxiety. Although it is true that I am pregnant with twins, I just got pregnant. Why would the emperor suddenly promote me?
A concubine is different from a princess. She is listed in the imperial family's imperial genealogy and is considered a daughter-in-law of the royal family. How could I, a concubine, deserve such great favor from you?"
"What's the big deal? Since the Emperor has given you such a favor, just accept it. I'm worried that you might be afraid to accept it."
"Look at what you said, my Lord. Why should I be afraid? The ones I should be afraid of are others. I am upright and have no need to show my fear. I am just a little nervous. What if I really give birth to two princesses? It will be difficult to explain to the emperor.
The title of Concubine is not something that anyone can hold. If I were to be promoted for no reason, I'm afraid some people in the backyard would make a fuss. As you know, we don't have Concubine in our courtyard."
