Kangxi looked at Liang Jiugong unhappily. He knew his own son well. If Yinzhen really did something like forming a clique for personal gain, he would not only not blame him, but would also secretly support him.
This is not only a trust in him, but also a preference for him. He has a kind heart. If his sons can inherit his position, they will definitely have a good end.
Even if it was to give them a good ending, he would not say anything to Yinzhen. It was just that the prince was a little narrow-minded. In comparison, he was not worthy of the position of prince.
The prince did not know that Kangxi had subconsciously deprived him of the opportunity to ascend the throne because of his complaint. He now just wanted to vent, after all, he felt that Yinzhen had betrayed him.
"Your Highness, if you feel that the Fourth Prince has betrayed you, why not let him come and ask? It hurts me to see you getting angry on your own."
A handsome eunuch next to him suddenly said this, which eased the prince's anger. When he saw his face clearly, he unconsciously embraced him in his arms.
I'm afraid that no one except the people in his room knows that Yinreng is bisexual. I don't know who sent this person, but she looks pretty good.
"I'm not in a good mood right now. If you can serve me well, I don't mind giving you some love. It depends on whether you can grasp it."
Those who can serve in Yuqing Palace all know some secrets. If the prince wants to favor him, he will certainly not refuse. After all, if he can be favored, his family will live a better life.
"Please take care of me, Your Highness."
If the prince had not been sure that he was a eunuch, he would have thought that he was a palace maid disguised as a man to seduce him. With someone to comfort him, he no longer worried about Yinzhen's affairs.
Time flies, and the rift between Yinzhen and the prince grows deeper and deeper, but this does not affect his continued character setting. The prince is seeking his own death, and it is not his fault.
"Father, I have something I want to tell you. Are you free now?"
Kangxi looked at Yinzhen with some curiosity. It was really strange that Yinzhen had something to say to him. Since he had nothing to do at the moment, he might as well listen to what he wanted to say.
"I've been reading memorials all day, and my eyes are tired. Since you have something to ask me, I'll take a break. Tell me, what's making you hesitate?"
Yinzhen smiled embarrassedly. What else could it be? Of course it was about moving out of the palace and building a mansion. He was already in his twenties, it wouldn't be good for him to live in the palace forever, right?
He thought it was nothing, but there was no guarantee that the prince would think so. After all, the prince was narrow-minded, and he already suspected that he had ulterior motives. If he didn't leave the palace again, he would probably think that he didn't want to go out.
"Father Emperor, have you forgotten how old my eldest brother is? Not to mention my eldest brother, your son is already in his twenties. Isn't it time for him to leave the palace and start his own household?"
Kangxi then realized that he had forgotten to divide the mansions among his sons. But he wondered if this guy did it on purpose. He had many sons, and if he divided them all, the silver that had just been collected from the national treasury would have to be used up again.
You know what, comparison is hurtful. If he has a few more children, the money in the national treasury will not be enough to support his sons, not to mention the dowry for his daughters. It's really scary!
Yinzhen waited for Kangxi's answer for a long time. When he looked up, he saw Kangxi changing his face like in Peking Opera. The corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously. There was nothing wrong with what he said just now, so why did the emperor react so strongly?
"Father Emperor, is there something wrong with what my son said?"
"You haven't, I just feel that time has passed so quickly. You are already in your twenties. I thought you were still young."
"What are you talking about, Father Huang? You already have so many grandchildren. Do you think your sons are only in their teens? Father Huang, people must accept their age. If they don't, they will not be able to do so."
It was a rare occasion for Yinzhen to make a joke, and Kangxi didn't want to spoil his fun, so the father and son sat down and discussed the matter of dividing the palace.
"Two hundred thousand taels? Father, do you think it's easy to collect this debt from your son? Don't you know how hard your son has worked? If my ninth brother knew that the money he and your son had worked so hard to collect was given away by you as a settlement allowance, I'm afraid he would make a scene."
Kangxi was unhappy. If the resettlement fee didn't go to the national treasury, could it go into his private treasury? How could that be possible? No matter how much money he had in his private treasury, it couldn't withstand the consumption of these sons.
It would be different if he used the national treasury. There was not much money in the national treasury to begin with, so he wouldn't feel bad even if he gave it away. So he decided that if he wanted to move out of the palace and build a house, the settlement fee must be paid by the national treasury.
"That's your problem. I know Xiaojiu loves money, and I believe you can persuade him. Okay, I'll announce this in a few days, so you can go with peace of mind."
Yinzhen always felt that there was something wrong with what Kangxi said. What did he mean by "let him go without worry"? Where was he going? The emperor's words were sometimes very hurtful!
"Father, I'm serious. We can't just use the national treasury to pay for our sons' resettlement. Think about it, the Qing Dynasty has many soldiers to support."
Only then did Kangxi realize that the reason Yinzhen reacted so strongly was because he felt sorry for the Qing soldiers. He had wronged him. It was impossible for him to use his private treasury to subsidize them.
Yinzhen left the Qianqing Palace in a daze. He always felt that he had been cheated, but since the emperor said so, he decided to inform Xiaojiu so that he wouldn't think too much.
When Yinzhen learned that Kangxi was going to use the silver he had worked so hard to collect as resettlement allowance, he became as furious as Yinzhen had expected.
Fortunately, he had already taken countermeasures and did not let him make trouble in front of Kangxi. After all, they could get 200,000 yuan in resettlement allowance, and he could also get the same amount, so it was not a loss.
"Since Fourth Brother has come to explain everything to me, I won't say much. It's just a pity that the Emperor squandered everything he had just returned from.
If this weren't a bit disrespectful, I'd really like to say that the Emperor is a prodigal son! It's only been a short time! "
"It's okay. Money is earned to be spent, and it's all spent where it should be spent. Don't overthink it, Ninth Brother."
"I understand, brother. I'm sorry for the trouble I've taken to explain this to you. I have no objection."
"Master, great news! Concubine Chunyao is here and says she's pregnant again. Please go back and see her."
"What, again? That's great. I'll be back soon. Ninth brother, I'll treat you to a drink another day. I won't be with you today."
"Congratulations, Fourth Brother. Please go slower."
Yin'er looked at Yinzhen with envy. If Mu Sili gave birth to twins this time, he would have a perfect pair of sons. No, he wanted to be the father too!
The Ninth Lady had not expected that Mu Sili's pregnancy could bring her such benefits, and for a moment she felt a little grateful to her.
I'll go visit her in a couple of days. Maybe I'll share in her good fortune and get pregnant with a child. Then I'll really have no worries about food and clothing.
