Chapter 216 Different Thoughts
Chapter 216 Different Thoughts
He held up the jade pendant and shook it a few times, then placed it not far from Hongxi and spoke softly.
"Okay, now Hongxi, go pick up the jade pendant."
This action is like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing thousands of waves.
The eldest prince Yinzhen roared in anger in his heart.
[Khan Ama, you are too biased! ]
[Heh! The jade pendant is right under Hongxi's nose, why don't you just put it in his hand!]
The people watching around also had different thoughts.
How could the young and ignorant Hongxi perceive the complex atmosphere around him?
He only knew that the emperor who loved him so much asked him to get the jade pendant.
So he stood up and moved shakily to the jade pendant with his short legs, and stretched out his little hand towards the dragon-shaped jade pendant.
After successfully grabbing the jade pendant, he giggled happily, and the laughter echoed in the Qianqing Palace.
"Ma....Mafa....Here!"
As he said this, he took the jade pendant and handed it to Kangxi.
Kangxi looked at his grandson in front of him, who had only a few millet teeth, holding up his jade pendant and returning it to him obediently, and laughed happily.
Kangxi picked up his grandson directly.
"My dear child, this is your first birthday gift from me, the Emperor."
"I hope our little Hongxi can grow up healthy, learn both literature and martial arts, and acquire excellent skills, so that he can take over your father's burden and share the worries for us."
The emperor's words once again stirred up confusion in everyone's hearts.
Wanyu quietly tugged at Yinreng's sleeve with some concern.
Eye contact: [Isn’t this too high-profile? ]
Yinreng patted her little hand, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes showed a look that made him feel at ease.
Some gray-haired, highly respected Han officials stood on one side. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with relief and excitement.
[The Emperor places such great importance on his eldest grandson. This is a blessing for the Qing Dynasty.]
[Crown Prince, the eldest grandson of the Emperor, the throne has a legitimate heir. You must teach and assist the young master well in the future!]
Kangxi followed the Han tradition of the eldest son's inheritance system, which also gave these Han people a reassurance.
However, there are also some people whose flames of jealousy are quietly burning in their hearts.
The eldest prince Yinzhen was jealous to the point of madness at this time.
It was not only because of the dragon-shaped jade pendant, but also because Kangxi was holding Hongxi in his arms lovingly at this time.
[I'm not as good as Crown Prince Yinreng. Could it be that in Khan Ama's heart, even this one-year-old kid is more valued than me?!]
[Because this little bastard is the Crown Prince's son, he had everything from birth. His full moon and first birthday were celebrated with great fanfare in the Palace of Heavenly Purity!]
[Khan Ama favors the second son so much that he even values his own son so much. I am also Khan Ama's son, so how am I any less than him?]
[Khan Ama, do you still remember that a few days ago, Fu Jin also gave birth to my eldest son? ]
[My eldest son will be one year old in two months? ]
Yinzhen was so angry that he gritted his teeth, secretly hating his heart, and stared at the innocent little nephew who was held in Kangxi's arms.
Also unhappy was the first wife, Irgen Jueluo.
However, due to her frequent pregnancies and childbirths, she almost died when giving birth to the eldest prince and her eldest son, and her health is getting worse now.
Even though more than half a year has passed, he still looks sick, but today he forced himself to come and attend the first birthday ceremony of the emperor's eldest grandson.
Her complexion was already very bad, and she had put on a thick layer of powder, so you couldn't tell that she was unhappy.
Irgen Jueluo was still able to understand the situation.
She pulled Yinzhen's sleeve, signaling him to be more restrained.
Otherwise, if Khan Ama saw it, he would be dissatisfied with him.
Yinreng looked calmly at the people in the hall who had different expressions.
He didn't even need to look at the boss's thoughts to know what this person was thinking.
He did discover that there was another unexpected existence.
That was the eighth prince Yinsi.
At this time, he was talking to the people around him with a gentle expression, looking like a gentleman, humble and polite.
But who can detect the ambition in his heart?
A glint of sarcasm flashed in Yinreng's eyes.
【Not presentable! 】
However, when he saw Soetu staring at Feng Sheng'e with burning eyes below, Yinreng frowned slightly, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
[Uncle, you are becoming more and more worried now! ]
At this time, Soetu looked at the harmonious expressions of the grandparents and grandchildren at the top, and felt very proud.
In the 29th year of the Kangxi reign, he fought a decisive battle with Galdan in Ulan Butong. After defeating Galdan, he did not lead troops to pursue and suppress him immediately, so the emperor demoted him four levels and allowed him to remain in office.
This year, he accompanied the emperor to Ningxia to command the war, and when he returned to Beijing, he was appointed by the emperor to manage the affairs of setting up water stations.
The emperor restored him to his original rank on the grounds that he had made great contributions in this expedition.
He knew clearly that the reason he was able to be reinstated to his original rank this time was not only because of his meritorious service, but also because the emperor had regard for him for the sake of the prince.
Otherwise, with this little bit of merit, how could he be promoted to level four directly!
【Humph! 】
[Mingzhu, that old bastard, thought that if he suppressed me, I wouldn't be able to stand up again?]
[As long as the prince is still alive, I have a chance to turn things around.]
【Now I have been reinstated! 】
Although the old man was reinstated, he was not trusted or used by the Emperor.
[The eldest prince is not as respected by His Majesty as the crown prince! ]
Soetu was already feeling contented, and when he saw the emperor holding his eldest grandson, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
[A good grandson brings prosperity to three generations! If...]
[The position of the Crown Prince's lineage will be even more secure. After the Crown Prince ascends the throne, the Hesheli clan will prosper for at least a hundred years.]
Thinking of this, Soetu was very excited.
However, he was somewhat dissatisfied and glanced in the direction of the Crown Princess.
[It's a shame that the Guarjia clan got the upper hand.]
[Earlier, I was also disturbed by the memorial submitted by the son of that old man Shi Huashan.]
[No, we must arrange for someone we trust to enter Yuqing Palace and place him beside the Crown Prince.]
Next year is the general election, and I have to choose my candidate carefully.
At this time, Soetu was immersed in the fantasy of having a good grandson and sending someone to the Eastern Palace, and did not notice the coldness that flashed in Yinreng's eyes when he looked at him from the side of the emperor.
Mingzhu, Soetu's old rival, couldn't help but have all kinds of guesses in his mind when he saw the cunning smile on the old man's face.
[What conspiracy is this old man planning? ]
[The Emperor is now preparing to confer titles on the princes. Could it be that this old man is planning to take action in this regard?]
[No, I have to persuade the eldest prince later. Before the title is decided, he must be careful at all times!]
[Don't let this old man fool you.]
Thinking of the eldest prince's impulsive, irritable and stubborn temper, Mingzhu felt helpless.
Not only did Soetu have his own plans, but there were also many opportunists who wanted to take a chance on the throne and set their sights on the prince's big ship!
Their eyes were fixed on the dragon-shaped jade pendant and the emperor's eldest grandson, with greed and calculation flashing in their eyes.
It was as if he had already seen the future prosperity of his family.
However, some of the brothers, seeing their eldest nephew being held by Khan Ama in front of them, felt a little envious, but they did not look jealous.
Because the prince's second brother and second sister-in-law took good care of them, especially after they moved to the South Third House.
Knowing that they were studying hard in the Shangshufang all day, and that it was the time when they were growing and had a good appetite, the second sister-in-law would often send some food to the South Third House.
When my second brother and his wife left the palace before, they brought them a lot of new and interesting things from outside the palace, which they had never seen in the palace.
This seemingly festive first birthday banquet in the Palace of Heavenly Purity is actually filled with scheming and calculations. It can be said that there are thousands of faces in every person.

(I saw some people wanted a relationship chart. Who do they want? The heroine? The hero? Or some other family? Because I looked up a lot of information, the number of relationships I collected is quite large. Orange can find the source of the information online. Generally, I try to use historical data. If I can't find it, I will create my own. I hope you will continue to like and support Orange~)
