"Why did you come back? I pay my respects to you. Chunyao is really something. She is pregnant, but she has to inform you at this time. I can't stop her.
You are on duty at this hour, I hope I am not disturbing you. I am fine, would you like to go and do your work first?"
Mu Sili complained with some anger, which made Yinzhen's heart melt. He touched her belly carefully, and found his child inside again. It felt so good.
"It's okay, I've almost finished my work. I was just talking somewhere else, so it won't affect you. Don't worry too much.
Did the imperial physician tell me about this pregnancy? You suffered a lot when I was pregnant with Zhong Ling Yu Xiu. I don't want you to suffer too much.
You have to be very careful during the first three months. Even though you've given birth once, you still have to be cautious, Chunyao, remember that?"
"I will take good care of Concubine Jin, so you can rest assured."
"Master, what nonsense are you talking about? I don't think it's an injustice to bear children for you. I am happy about it. When I think about how many years from now, there will be countless children surrounding me and calling me mother, I am very happy."
Yinzhen imagined the scene and smiled unconsciously. To be honest, he was also looking forward to the appearance of that scene. Isn’t a house full of children and grandchildren what he has always been pursuing?
But no matter what, he was the one who suffered, so he should show appropriate sympathy. After all, in his heart he had already treated her as his wife.
"Anyway, you've worked hard. Fortunately, Nanny Tong is helping to take care of Zhong Lingyuxiu and manage the affairs of the courtyard. Otherwise, I would be worried. But it will be soon. When the time comes, it will be much easier to leave the palace and build a residence."
"Hmm? Moving out of the palace to build a mansion? Master, you mean we are moving out of the palace? How come I haven't heard of this news? But this is really good news."
"I just discussed my opinion with the Emperor today. If nothing unexpected happens, the Emperor will issue an order in a few days. Then I will let you choose the courtyard first."
"That's great! I won't choose for myself. I want the courtyard closest to your front yard, except for the main courtyard.
When we move out of the palace, it will be convenient for me to visit you in the front yard or for you to visit me in the back yard. It will also help us cultivate the relationship between you and the children. I think this is a very good idea."
Yinzhen really wanted to suggest that she just choose the main wife, but he didn't want to think too much about it. It would be bad if she had a miscarriage, so he quickly agreed to her request.
"Okay, I will leave the yard closest to the front yard to you."
"Thank you, sir."
The news that Kangxi was going to give separate residences to the princes spread like wildfire. Because it was Yinzhen who brought it up, more people came to him recently to inquire about the matter of dividing the residences.
Seeing that everyone was a little curious, Yinzhen set up a plan and briefly explained the matter. When they heard that Kangxi was going to give them each 200,000 yuan as resettlement allowance, they all smiled.
I had thought that the treasury was empty and that they could only give a few hundred thousand yuan for settling in. I didn't expect that Kangxi was willing to give them two hundred thousand yuan for settling in. This way, their life outside the palace would not be too tight.
Adding to the rewards and subsidies from their mother over the years, their lives after leaving the palace must be too carefree.
"Honestly speaking, after living in the palace for so many years, I've become less and less relaxed. Now that I'm out of the palace, it's different. The territory is bigger, and I can go to more places."
"I didn't expect that big brother also has such troubles. I always thought that I was the only one who had such thoughts. After all, there are too many people in my brother's courtyard. Although the prince's residence is not small, it is still too small. I can't let go."
Several people were discussing their life after leaving the palace, and no one noticed the coldness that passed across the prince's face.
Before, Kangxi said that Yinzhen had no ambition. If he had no ambition, how could he gather all his brothers together, and why did they trust him so much?
No, this is already putting so much pressure on him just watching in the palace, what will happen if he leaves the palace?
If it were him, he would definitely try every possible means to form a clique for personal gain. The throne can only be his, and if anyone dares to snatch it, he will never let him go.
"Second brother, why do you look so bad? Are you sick? I told you that you are the crown prince, and your health is important. Don't be afraid to seek medical treatment."
Yinzhen's sudden words made the prince's already ugly face even uglier, because he felt that Yinzhen was slapping him in the face and that he was deliberately showing his displeasure to them.
"I'm fine, Ninth Brother, don't worry. I just feel like I'll be lonely after you leave the palace. I used to be with all the brothers, but now I'll be alone, and I'm a little uncomfortable."
Yinzhen lowered his head and sneered. If he didn't know his true character, he might have believed his lies. But since he had already said so, he was too lazy to argue with him.
"Second brother is right. From now on, you will be the only prince in the palace. You must be filial to the emperor father."
"I have something else to do, so I won't have a small gathering with you. Next time I organize a party at Yuqing Palace, brothers, please show your favor, otherwise I will be sad."
"What are you talking about, second brother? If he is willing to organize a party to treat the brothers to a drink, then no matter how busy we are, we will make time to go over, don't worry, second brother."
The prince nodded in satisfaction and left. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to help but question Yinzhen why he was against him. Couldn't he just be his follower?
If he insisted on going against him, he wouldn't mind destroying the pitiful brotherhood between them and treating him as an enemy from then on.
Kangxi knew what was happening here. After hearing the prince's reactions, his dislike for him increased a little bit.
"I knew that choosing him as the Crown Prince was a hasty decision. I sent people to keep an eye on Yuqing Palace. I don't think he will give up. Moreover, Yuqing Palace has been eerily quiet lately. I'm not used to it."
When Liang Jiugong heard Kangxi ask him to monitor Yuqing Palace, his face stiffened slightly, which happened to be seen clearly by Kangxi. He was a little confused. What did he mean by this?
"Why, you don't want to send someone to keep an eye on Yuqing Palace? Or is there something going on in Yuqing Palace that I can't know about?"
After hesitating for a moment, Liang Jiugong decided to tell Kangxi the information he had previously found out. After all, he was his son, and he should know about what he had done.
"Your Majesty, I didn't mean to keep it to myself. It's just that you know the Crown Prince is a bit aloof and arrogant. It's normal for him to do something unethical, right?"
"What do you mean by all this? Has the Crown Prince done something so wicked as to offend Heaven and Earth? Just tell me straight away. I can handle it, but I don't believe there's anything in this world I can't accept!"
