Chapter 207 Yixiu. 47
After a lively New Year, the atmosphere returned to being cold when the court session began.
Kangxi sat on the dragon throne, looking at the group of ministers below, and said that after he deposed the crown prince, there would be no heir in the country. I think of the crown prince's past and my heart aches...
He then enumerated a number of Yinreng's merits. The ministers looked at each other, wondering what the Emperor wanted to do.
Finally, Kangxi dropped a bombshell, asking them to nominate who could be the next crown prince.
They had never expected that Kangxi would give them such an opportunity, and each of them was thinking about Kangxi's purpose and the results he wanted to see.
Many people really thought that Kangxi wanted to consider the status of those princes in the hearts of the ministers, and the final statistics showed that the eighth prince Yinsi had the most votes.
Kangxi looked at the things that had been counted in front of him with an expressionless face. Old Eight was really amazing!
If it weren't for what happened today, he wouldn't have known that Old Eight had been doing so many things in private. Not to mention Ma Qi and others, even the Tong family supported Old Eight!
Looking at the fourth brother standing there with a sullen face, few of the Tong family's half-nephew chose him.
In the end, Kangxi became furious and said bluntly that the eighth prince was a criminal and could not inherit the throne. Then this election exam started and ended inexplicably.
Kangxi directly abolished the final result of this election and imposed varying degrees of punishment on those who supported the Eighth Elder.
Tong Guowei was demoted by Kangxi, who was not even satisfied enough and called someone over to give him a good scolding.
Kangxi always valued the Tong family because they were his maternal family. The reason why they were called Tong Banchao was because of his indulgence.
Now seeing that they are already looking for their next employer, they are truly far-sighted, which is beyond my reach!
Yinzhen's eyes were gloomy. Most of the situations in the court today were in favor of the Eighth Prince, but the Emperor definitely did not look happy.
So what happened today was what the Emperor did for his second brother. As for what it was? Yinzhen thought about the incredible answer in his heart.
In the end, he still wrote about the second prince.
Now Kangxi has set his sights on the next generation of his princes. After looking around, he found that the fourth prince, Honghui, was the one who most suited his taste.
Kangxi thought for a long time and said to Wei Zhu, "Go and ask Honghui to come over."
"Yes."
Honghui is eleven years old now. The little boy has already grown into a young man who can stand tall and proud. He grows fast, and now he grows a little taller every once in a while. He changes his clothes very frequently.
Honghui is now following his own will and studying very hard every day. Many people say that the emperor thinks highly of him and has asked his mother to reward him many times.
Although he didn't know what the Royal Law was for, he knew that only if he was good enough could his mother continue to be rewarded.
So when Kangxi sent someone to call him, Honghui was not nervous at all. He calmly followed Wei Zhu into the Qianqing Palace and saw the man sitting on the dragon throne.
He was so majestic and so unattainable. Honghui had never been qualified to see him before, until the year before last...
"My grandson pays his respects to the Emperor Mafa. May the Emperor Mafa live long and well."
"Get up." Kangxi told him to get up in a deep voice. Seeing that Honghui was not timid at all despite his young age and acted in an orderly manner, he had been watching him for two years and found no problem with his character.
On this day, no one knew what Kangxi and Honghui had said. Even Wei Zhu was just waiting at the door, and her face turned pale when she saw Honghui leave.
Wei Zhu quickly stepped forward to support him, "Hey, Brother Honghui!"
Honghui took a deep breath, and although he couldn't help trembling, his eyes were surprisingly bright.
"Thank you, father-in-law."
"Hey, shall I ask someone to help you go back?"
Honghui shook his head, stretched out his hand to tidy up his clothes, and said to him: "No need, I will go back now, thank you for your kindness, father-in-law."
It took him a long time to smile, and then he returned to his previous appearance.
What Huang Mafa said to him just now did frighten him, but he was more happy.
Now the situation between him and Huang Mafa is almost clear. He must grow quickly in the time that is left to him, until he is strong enough to withstand the pressure from his elders.
Kangxi watched Wei Zhu come in, and suddenly asked Wei Zhu, "What was Honghui's expression when he left?"
"Oh, Your Majesty, Prince Honghui looked pale when he left the house, but he returned to normal after a while and strode back."
Kangxi nodded and didn't say much to Wei Zhu.
"Go call someone..."
In March, the deposed Crown Prince Yinreng was reinstated by Kangxi. After the Crown Prince, who was originally high-spirited, was released from confinement and returned to his position, his first reaction was not ecstasy, but panic, anxiety and even fear.
He intuitively felt that he was no longer the crown prince, and the emperor father was no longer his father. Now, the crown prince was just a position, a target that the emperor father had to set up to block those people below him.
He originally thought that his position as crown prince was still secure, but after experiencing the experience of being arbitrarily deposed by Kangxi, Yinreng's thoughts changed greatly.
But the more people fear making mistakes, the more likely they are to make them. Yinreng was trembling in his position as the crown prince and had no peace all day long.
Yinreng's restoration was undoubtedly a huge blow to the other princes. They all thought that they would have a chance after the emperor had deposed the second crown prince. Now it seems that the emperor still only likes the second crown prince.
The ones who were most broken-down were the eldest and the eighth, one of whom was confined in the palace as a commoner, and the other was expelled from the clan and imprisoned. Now, seeing Yinreng return to his position as the crown prince, they all drank to drown their sorrows, feeling extremely sad.
Kangxi has been seeing Honghui more and more often recently, and Yixiu is getting impatient seeing Yinzhen coming to her room from time to time.
Now Yinzhen was sitting there, saying something unknown, and Yixiu didn't hear a word he said.
Yixiu looked at Yinzhen, who did not look gloomy. Although these days were difficult, they were not too sad. He was just worried about the Thirteenth Prince and wanted to find someone to talk to, but he didn't know who to find.
After thinking about it, he actually walked to Qingyin Pavilion. Looking at Yixiu's cold face, Yinzhen actually laughed: "You have been angry with me all these years. Don't you regret it now?"
"I am not angry with you, my Lord, but there is no point in fussing over many things."
Yinzhen looked at her coldly, "You are just relying on Honghui to treat me like this. If I really want to be strong, will you also disobey me?"
Yi Xiu became even colder, with a mocking arc at the corner of her lips: "Your Highness is strong-willed, and I can do nothing about it, but Your Highness doesn't care about his own reputation?"
