Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children
Chapter 69 Kangxi Defei 22
In April, Kangxi issued an edict, asking Concubine Hui to send the Eighth Prince to Jingren Palace to be raised by the Imperial Noble Consort.
For Concubine Hui, this was a bolt from the blue!
She gritted her teeth and cried in front of the emperor: "The eldest prince didn't grow up by my side. I finally raised a child. I held him in my arms since he was born. It's been more than a year, why do you want to take him away from me? Am I not worthy of the position or what? The Imperial Concubine has already raised the Seventh Prince. You can't take my Eighth Prince away just because the Seventh Prince has difficulty walking!"
Kangxi was so overwhelmed by the crying that he tried to comfort Concubine Hui, but Concubine Hui refused to listen. Kangxi became impatient and sulked and scolded her away.
Concubine Hui returned to the palace crying, and was seen by countless people along the way. Now, everyone in the six palaces, east and west, knew that the Imperial Concubine wanted to adopt the Eighth Prince, but Concubine Hui refused.
After Shen Jiang heard about it, she didn't think about anything else. She was just afraid that the Eighth Prince had an imperial concubine as his adoptive mother, which would be disadvantageous to the Fourth Prince in the future fight for the throne.
She asked the Fourth Prince tactfully: "If the Imperial Concubine had raised the Eighth Prince, would the Eighth Prince have a higher status?"
There was no childish expression on the Fourth Prince's face. He sneered, "So what if the Imperial Concubine raised him? Can you ignore the fact that his biological mother was of humble origin?"
Shen Jiang was startled by his expression and didn't react for a moment.
The Fourth Prince felt a little regretful, and quickly held Shen Jiang's fingers, saying aggrievedly: "Ernie, that's not what my son meant."
He knew that in his previous life, Enie and Concubine Liang were close friends, and that Enie was very sad when Concubine Liang died! Later, Enie had advised him to treat the Eighth Prince well, but he didn't do so, so Enie was so disappointed in him, right?
Shen Jiang smiled and said gently: "It's okay, I know what you mean. In fact, I am just worried that you will feel unwilling. After all, the Imperial Noble Consort did want to raise you. If not... you would also be the Imperial Noble Consort's adopted son now. The Imperial Noble Consort will definitely become the queen in the future, and you can be considered half a legitimate son."
These words seemed to be a heavy slap in the face of the Fourth Prince. In his previous life, he was wavering between his adoptive mother and his biological mother. He deliberately raised his status for the sake of the crown prince and exaggerated the love that Empress Xiaoyiren had for him...
Every detail is still vivid in my mind.
"Ernie, I'm sorry, I'm an unfilial son!" The Fourth Prince suddenly knelt down, choking with sobs.
Shen Jiang's eyes also turned red. She picked up the Fourth Prince and said, "Ene was also wrong. Don't blame Ene and don't hate me."
The fourth prince cried, "I have never hated you."
He had never hated his mother, not in his previous life, and certainly not in this life. All he wanted was his mother's love, and even if he had her in his previous life, he didn't feel it. In this life, he finally felt it.
Nothing can make people happier than mother's love. He doesn't want any adopted son from an imperial concubine or any half-legitimate son!
Whatever he wants, he can get it through his own ability. He doesn't bother to use those false names anymore!
The mother and son hugged each other and cried. Grape looked outside for several times, his face looking very anxious.
Seeing that it was getting late, she didn't care about anything else and rushed in, saying, "Master, the emperor will be here in a quarter of an hour."
Shen Jiang quickly wiped the tears from her face and said, "Hurry up, wash my brother's face and change his clothes."
They both washed their faces quickly, and Shen Jiang also had to put on makeup.
Kangxi came and looked at the two of them carefully, and could see that they both looked like they had been crying.
"What's going on? Did the Fourth Prince make your mother angry?"
The Fourth Prince lowered his head and did not defend himself. He actually admitted it and said, "It's all my son's fault."
The Sixth Prince was like a god, he put his arms around Kangxi's neck and whispered in his ear: "Father, I'm telling you, I was peeking outside the door and saw Enie and Fourth Brother hugging each other and crying."
Kangxi looked at Shen Jiang in confusion. Shen Jiang rudely slapped the Sixth Prince on the buttocks and cursed, "You little traitor!"
The Sixth Prince chuckled and said in a sly voice, "It doesn't hurt at all."
Kangxi held the Sixth Prince in his arms and asked, "What happened?"
Since he insisted on asking, Shen Jiang answered, "It's all your fault. You insisted on separating the mother and child."
Kangxi was confused: "When did I ever want you and your son to be separated?"
The Fourth Prince winked at Shen Jiang. Shen Jiang knew it was not a good idea to involve the Imperial Concubine, so she said, "When the Fourth Prince grows up, he should move in with the other princes. This will mean separation of mother and son."
Kangxi was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly and said, "The Fourth Prince is only five years old, and he still has two years before he moves to the Prince Residence. You're crying now, what will you do in the future?" Then he calmed down and said solemnly, "The reason why the prince grows up and lives separately is that he is afraid of being raised by women and getting a woman's temper. Fourth Prince, don't cry anymore."
The Fourth Prince hurriedly said, "My son has made a note of this. I will shed blood instead of tears in the future."
Shen Jiang rolled his eyes and cursed in his heart: Damn it, it turns out that the demand for masculinity has been going on since the Qing Dynasty!
System: "The essential purpose of demanding masculinity is to invade women's space. You don't believe it!"
Shen Jiang: "It's you, Tongzi, who can see the essence through the phenomenon!"
The system was very proud, but also a little worried: "Now that you and the Fourth Prince have broken up, how are you going to get along in the future?"
Shen Jiang played dumb: "Did he say he was reborn? Did I say I traveled through time? No! So has this layer of window paper been broken? Still no! So, let's just get along with each other as we should in the future!"
The system praised her: "When it comes to being shameless, you have to look at it, host!"
Although Kangxi issued an edict to Concubine Hui, he did not say when she should send the Eighth Prince to Jingren Palace, so Concubine Hui just kept delaying.
Today she said the Eighth Prince had a stomachache and felt a little uncomfortable, and tomorrow she said the Eighth Prince had a headache and had caught a cold. In any case, she just refused to give birth to the child.
After using the Eighth Prince's excuse, he used Wei's excuse, saying that Wei was ill and the Eighth Prince had to take care of her.
It was not until June when the Eighth Prince was supposed to move to the temporary palace that he still did not move to the Jingren Palace.
Kangxi was busy with his tour and could not take care of Concubine Hui for the time being, so Concubine Hui casually took the Eighth Prince and followed the large group going to the palace.
This time, Shen Jiang really admired Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui was not weak to begin with, and she became even stronger as a mother!
The living quarters in the temporary palace were more comfortable than those in the Forbidden City, with plenty of light and a wide view. Most importantly, the scenery was good, and there was an open space for the concubines and princes to ride horses.
That evening, the sun was setting in the west and the breeze was refreshing. Kangxi brought a group of concubines and princes to the open space, where colorful flags had been planted.
"Whoever has the best riding skills and reaches the finish line the fastest, takes down the colorful flag and returns will be rewarded handsomely!"
Shen Jiang was wearing riding clothes and was eager to try.
"Your Majesty, I'll go first!" A purple figure jumped on the horse and rushed out of the starting line.
The woman in purple posed in various postures on the horse, sometimes bending over to pick up colorful flags; sometimes holding the reins with both hands while keeping her feet on the ground; and sometimes standing high on the saddle.
Everyone cheered when they saw it, and Shen Jiang was also impressed by his superb riding skills.
"who is this?"
Kangxi smiled and said, "This is Concubine Yi. Didn't expect that?"
Shen Jiang really didn't expect this, and then it suddenly dawned on her that no wonder Concubine Yi had been so favored for so many years. In addition to her beauty, her superb riding skills were also a magic weapon to attract Kangxi.
