Huai Ke looked at him with a pale face. She was his eldest daughter. He loved her very much before. Why didn't he want to love her now?
Did Mu Sili say something in front of him? Otherwise, she didn't believe that he would really disregard the father-daughter relationship between them.
"Father, I really know I was wrong. I shouldn't have pleaded for my mother that day, but she is my mother, and I can't be ungrateful."
Even at this time, she still wanted to say that she was a filial daughter. Yinzhen didn't know what to say.
His daughter was no longer as timid as she was before, but he did not feel happy at all. He only felt that it was her nature. It seemed that it was Li who suppressed her nature.
"I will still say the same thing. I will let you and Hongshi grow up safely, but don't expect more. You are a woman, and I will find a good marriage for you when the time comes."
"I understand. I've been longing for things that don't belong to me. I'll change. But, can you please let me move to Qingfengxuan?"
"Niuhulu's mother raised my daughter for a month, and my daughter has learned a lot from her. I beg you, father, to grant my daughter's wish and let her move there."
Mu Sili looked at her in shock. Even after Yinzhen had said so much, she still wanted to go to her Qingfengxuan. Did he treat her as a decoration?
"Your Highness, I'm pregnant and I'm afraid I don't have the experience to educate the eldest princess. The third prince is now in the palace to learn the rules. If the eldest princess wants to go, then send her with him."
When Huai Ke heard this, the look in his eyes when he looked at Mu Sili changed. She took the initiative to hand her the ladder, and this was how she repaid her?
If she was really sent to the palace today, she would probably never be able to return to Prince Yong's Mansion in this lifetime, and then the only option waiting for her would be marriage.
"Father, I don't want to enter the palace. It's not a place for human beings. You've suffered so much, you can't let your daughter follow in your footsteps, right?
My daughter won't go to Qingfengxuan anymore. I don't know what I did to upset Niuhulu's mother. Feicuixuan is great. I will stay there from now on. I beg you to agree."
It’s her fault that she is too young to compete with her, otherwise she would have had a good argument with her about who is better.
"Your Highness, since the eldest princess has said so, please grant her wish. After all, she is your eldest daughter, and the honor she deserves must be given to her.
The palace is indeed not a good place. Not to mention the eldest princess, even I am afraid. The eldest princess is old, and if she is sent to the palace, she might be exploited by someone with ulterior motives. It is better to let her stay in the mansion.
I am now in charge of the affairs of the mansion. Even if I did not personally raise the eldest princess, I will not let her suffer any injustice. You can just focus on your own affairs."
"With you watching over me, I'm naturally relieved. Since you've said so, then it's settled. The funeral of Fu Jin and Li Shi will be kept simple. Su Peisheng, you take care of this matter."
Mu Sili didn't ask Yinzhen why he didn't ask her to take charge. Since it was his decision, he must have his reasons, so she just listened.
"Yes, Your Highness, rest assured. I will take care of it. But if the palace asks, how should I answer?"
"If the people sent by the Emperor ask, just tell the truth. The rest of you can just evade the question. And as for the Ulanara family, they played an indispensable role in Fu Jin's poisoning of Li. They should not speak nonsense.
Oh, right, go to the palace and bring Hongshi back. Li is his mother after all, and he should come back to mourn for her."
"I understand. I will make arrangements right away."
"Huai Ke, after your mother's funeral is over, you should learn the rules in Feicuixuan. If you don't want to be sent to marry, don't cause trouble for me."
"My daughter knows."
Huai Ke now feels like he has a stepfather because he has a stepmother. After Mu Sili gives birth, she will definitely become a concubine, and her status will be even lower.
But she was too young, and even if she wanted to do something, it would be useless. She could only watch her climb to the top step by step, and she could only look up.
If I hadn't spoken up for my mother at the beginning, not only would she have received her protection, but my father would also have protected her wholeheartedly.
Even if they could not make their younger brother Hongshi the crown prince, they and their siblings could still get the best protection.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world. No matter how much she regrets now, it is too late. It is better for her to listen to advice and learn the rules. As long as she can marry into the capital in the future, she will be satisfied.
As Yinzhen expected, the palace did send people to inquire about the cause of death of Fu Jin and Li. When they learned that they killed each other because of Honghui's death, the matter was left unresolved.
Not only that, the Ulanara family not only did not stand up for Fu Jin, but also offered an apology, because they did help Fu Jin find the poison.
Now Yinzhen did not tell anyone about this matter because he was giving Fei Yanggu a break, and they did not dare to displease him.
The most important point is that although Fu Jin died, she was not deposed. If Yinzhen ascended to a high position in the future, she would be the empress, which would be beneficial to them.
Anyone who is not a fool knows what to choose, and they will never stand against Yinzhen.
In Yonghe Palace, Concubine De looked at the person who came to tell her the news with displeasure. She did not expect Yinzhen to be so cruel that he killed a wife and a concubine at once.
Fortunately, Mu Sili is also hers. After she gives birth to this baby, she will summon her to the palace to talk. After making some arrangements, is she still worried that Yinzhen will not pave the way for Yinzhi?
Concubine De never thought that Yinzhen would become estranged from her after being registered under the name of Empress Xiaoyi. She only knew that he was her son and should listen to her.
"Since the Fourth Master's wife and his concubine are both gone, I will give him two more. You can pick two suitable ones and send them to the Prince of Yong's Mansion. Say that they were given by me. They will serve the Fourth Master well."
"Your Highness, why don't you just forget it? The prince has been imprisoned in Chengqian Palace. If you openly bestow the title upon someone, I'm afraid it will displease the Emperor."
"Dissatisfied? Why would the Emperor be dissatisfied? Even if the fourth child is registered under the name of Tong Jia, who doesn't know that she is my daughter?
I only assigned two people to serve him, and someone dared to say no? They are all sensible people, they won't say anything. Besides, this is a sign of my concern for him.
If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have bothered to care. But this Fourth Prince is destined to pave the way for my Fourteenth Prince. If he dares to refuse, I'll have people spread rumors about his unfilial behavior."
Concubine De refused to listen to advice. She just wanted to take advantage of the fact that she was his biological mother to do evil. Isn't it just a gift to someone? Others can do it, why can't she?
When Kangxi learned that she had given someone to Prince Yong's Mansion at this time, he was so angry that he put her under house arrest and warned her that if she did not see her place clearly, he would not mind demoting her.
