Chapter 4 Something is wrong
Chapter 4 Something is wrong
Yinsi resigned himself to his fate and picked up the pen to write down all the names. Kangxi looked at the silent Yinsi and thought of his wife Dong E. "Xiaojiu, your wife was chosen by the Queen Mother and your mother. She is on the list of wives I chose for you. The Queen Mother chose Dong E for you, and your mother likes her very much too."
Yinzhen looked up in surprise, "Father Emperor, are you saying... that the Royal Madam... doesn't mind?"
What did Kangxi want to say he cared about? Consort Dong E?
Don't make a fuss. The Empress Dowager hates the Emperor. Although she doesn't like Concubine Dong E, it's not to this extent. The Empress Dowager has always been clear-headed, but he can't say this.
As for why she hates the Third Lady, it’s because she has evil intentions and the Empress Dowager can’t like her!
Who made the Ninth Prince’s wife act like the Tenth Prince, just... brainless!
The people that the Empress Dowager likes actually all have one characteristic, which is... they don’t have much brains!
Can he say that? Of course not!
"Who is your Royal Madam? Would she mind? If she minded, would she choose Dong E for you? Go to Shoukang Palace in person tomorrow and ask and you will know," Kangxi glanced at Yinzhen, then looked at his own Baoqing and Baocheng who were watching the show on the side. These two were too quiet today!
Something is wrong!
Something is very wrong!
Something is super wrong!
The prince noticed the look in his father's eyes and nudged his eldest brother beside him with his elbow, "What are you doing? Are you bullying me in front of the father?"
The prince turned to look at his silly elder brother in astonishment, "..." Where's the brain! Where's the brain! Is it in your house?
Can you please use your brain when you go out next time?
The prince gave up decisively. Not wanting to get angry, he stepped forward and said, "Father, what about my ninth brother's money?"
"Wow..."
Suddenly, a cry resounded throughout the study. Everyone was startled and looked towards the source of the sound at the same time, only to see a round ball moving to the side of their father's legs!
Kangxi's face turned dark, "Yin'e! Get up! What are you talking about?" He was so scared that he thought something had happened!
Yin'e shook his head, "My son can't get up, but my brother is still using his 100,000 taels of silver. Look at him," Yin'e pointed at himself, "Look at your good son Xiao Shi, he has become skinny from hunger!"
"..." Kangxi looked up, down, left and right, with a very conflicted expression on his face. He really couldn't tell that she was thin, but, "Xiao Shi, have you... gained weight again?"
"Impossible! Father, you don't care about your son!" Yin'e blinked. Gained weight? No wonder he was a little out of breath when walking these days. No, he couldn't be lazy about riding and shooting in the future. He had to practice. "Father, my son has no money. He can't support himself or the family. In the future... he will have no descendants. Wuwuwuwu..."
"..." Kangxi looked at Yinsi, who was kneeling on the ground with a gloomy face. Yinsi couldn't take out any money. "Eighth Brother, how much money do you have? Do you owe Old Ten 100,000 taels? And you owe Old Nine 270,000 taels?"
He raised his hand and threw a book over, because he was reluctant to throw away the golden abacus. Not to mention that the things used by Yinzhen were very luxurious!
"Your Majesty, I don't owe you anything!" Yinsi knew that everything he had done in the past was in vain, and his mother was also implicated by him. The road ahead would be difficult. He didn't want to speak, but he didn't want to bear an inexplicable stigma.
Owe money to your tenth brother?
Is my tenth brother rich?
He has, but he doesn’t even have enough to spend!
Kangxi suddenly looked at Yin'e, who even hiccupped and blinked. The fat finger pointed at Yin'er and said, "Ninth brother said to give me half," if I can get it!
He even said it was too little, it should be at least 135,000 taels.
Yinzhen turned his head away silently. His tenth brother's current appearance was really unbearable to look at. It was too unbearable!
Kangxi was silent for a while. Who did this child learn to be so shameless from? Imperial Concubine Wenxi was as gentle and virtuous as her sister. What about the other members of the Nianhulu clan?
But Faka is a bit shameless, he really lives up to the old Chinese saying 'nephew takes after his uncle'!
"Your Majesty, this is not my fault. I have always spent a lot of money, but my eighth brother spent less. However, he gave the money to those court officials instead of me, his younger brother. Moreover, he took money from my ninth brother and let my eighth sister-in-law bully her. My eighth brother doesn't care at all. If my ninth brother hadn't been angry, I wouldn't have spoken!" Yin'e looked at Yinsi angrily.
"Everyone says he's in trouble, but what is he in trouble for? Eighth sister-in-law is the descendant of a criminal minister, and her mother was favored by Yue Le because he favored his concubine over his wife. Now Prince Anxu has been awarded the title, but why doesn't Eighth sister-in-law go back and feel proud? She only knows how to show off to us brothers! Bah!"
Yin'ai had long disliked his eighth sister-in-law. If his ninth brother had not respected his eighth brother in the past, he would have definitely slapped her in the face. He had never suffered any injustice since he was a child!
Kangxi did not stop Yin'e from speaking, but waited for him to finish. He did not criticize him, but looked helpless, "Stand up, you are a prince, how can you sit on the ground?" Then he looked at Yinsi who was kneeling on the ground, "How can you rule the world if your family is not peaceful? Your wife is jealous and vicious, and is not fit to be a wife. But because of my care for you, I will give you a concubine, the daughter of Gabula, Hesheli Hengruo, is that okay?"
Yinsi suddenly looked up at Kangxi, "Emperor...Emperor Father," looking at his own Emperor Father's eyes that could not refute, he knew he had no choice but to admit it!
Hesheli Hengruo, she is the niece of Soetu and the cousin of Maerhui!
The Emperor is so cruel! How much he must hate his wife to be like this!
When Prince An was around, his wife had bullied Maerhui, his children, and his niece, especially the Hesheli family. Now...
Yinsi closed his eyes. This was a good thing. This way he was truly connected to Prince An's lineage!
Kangxi opened the study door and walked out first. "My dear ministers, please stand up. This is Xiaojiu's big day. There is no distinction between the monarch and his subjects here..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
It seemed as if the scene was full of harmony, laughter and joy, and the emperor and his subjects were enjoying themselves together.
It was night time, the guests had left one after another, and after all the ceremonies were completed, only two people were left staring at each other on the red bed in the bridal chamber.
"Fujin, a night of spring is worth a thousand pieces of gold." Yinzhen was the first to break the silence, because he found that his wife could really remain silent and was not embarrassed at all, just looking at him!
[You don't even take off your clothes and just lie there, what's wrong? Do I have to do it myself?] Wen Yao glanced at Yinzhen, who was lying there motionless with a calm expression, but her heart was full of contempt, [Have you been drained dry by your concubine? (ˉ▽ ̄~) Tsk~~]
Yinzhen: !!!!!!
Tolerable or unbearable!
He can do anything, but he can't be despised like this. Is he being squeezed dry?
No matter whether it is a ghost or a god, it is his now. He will let her know whether she has been squeezed dry or not. This woman is so annoying!
Wen Yao was served so comfortably that she asked for water twice. Wen Yao lay on the bed and looked at Yinzhen who was lying on the bed with great satisfaction. [He is a good person, but his brain is not good. He can't support his brother and sister-in-law now, right? I feel that his money is still not easy to keep. What if he is soft-hearted in the future? Forget it, I will go out to beg when the time comes. The main point is to embarrass everyone together! ]
