What's more, the crown prince is still vacant. If the emperor doesn't express his position, the matter will never be finalized.

Everyone laughed a lot as they talked and laughed. Everyone was secretly watching the emperor's expression and guessing what he meant.

When Emperor Kangxi was slightly drunk, he still asked everyone attending the banquet to eat and drink more.

At this time, a man walked up to Emperor Kangxi, holding a cup of hangover soup, bowing and saying: "Huang Ama, too much wine is intoxicating, which will make you sick. I kindly ask Huang Ama to drink less and have a bowl of hangover soup."

.”

When this person spoke, his tone was humble. When he held the bowl, he bent deeply, showing a humble posture.

Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was the former prince and now the first prince Yinreng.

The first prince has always been arrogant. Even when facing the emperor, he keeps his back straight and never bends deeply. When has he ever looked so humble?

That's surprising.

While everyone was talking, the fourth elder brother stood up and said with a smile: "Brother Yi Huang is so filial. If the Emperor doesn't eat this bowl of hangover soup, he would be sorry for his filial piety."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed slightly.

It was just reported yesterday that when the Eighth Prince came to pay his respects to the Emperor, he somehow made the Emperor unhappy and was deposed and became an idle member of the clan.

Mr. Fucha's three brothers were all present at that time, and Fucha's family also suffered.

How dare the Fourth Prince to make fun of the Emperor and the First Prince today?

For a moment, everyone in the venue involuntarily became quiet, fearing that even a small sound would offend the emperor.

I was also afraid that when my fourth brother was scolded, he would get burned if he spoke out, and his family would suffer as well.

Just when everyone in the venue was in danger, suddenly, the emperor's hearty laughter came from the room.

"Okay, okay, okay." Emperor Kangxi said loudly: "Since Yinzhen is so filial and Yinzhen also reminded me, I have to drink this bowl of soup."

Emperor Kangxi said, stretched out his hand to pick up the soup cup held respectfully by the first prince, drank it all in one gulp, and then showed everyone the bottom of the bowl: "How about it? Do I keep my word?"

He originally thought that since we were at a banquet, it would be nice to relax a little, so he said this.

But everyone else in the room was nervous and scared. How could they dare to be as comfortable as the three of them, father and son?

Following the emperor's laughing question, everyone laughed dryly and sparsely echoed: "The emperor is a wise man, and he keeps his word."

Emperor Kangxi suddenly felt bored.

He turned to look at Si Age and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that Si Fujin is not here. This child is interesting. If she were here, she would definitely be able to answer my questions."

Hearing that Huang Ama mentioned his wife, Yinzhen's expression softened a lot: "Huang Ama made a strong statement. Si Fujin is dull by nature, and it is just a coincidence that he occasionally gets the answer right."

Emperor Kangxi laughed loudly: "Is she still stupid?"

He turned to look at the first prince, pointed at the fourth elder brother and said: "Listen to what the fourth brother said. If the fourth prince is dull, then among the wives of officials in the whole court, are there any smart ones?"

Just now, the first prince saw Emperor Kangxi singing harmoniously with his fourth elder brother, and he was worried that Emperor Ama intended to make his fourth brother the prince.

Now I see Huang Ama comparing Si Fujin with the "official's wife", obviously putting Si Age in the position of "official"...

He was overjoyed, but he couldn't show it. He continued to bow down and say respectfully: "The emperor's words are reasonable. However, the fourth brother has always been humble. I think he was humble on behalf of the fourth brother."

The first prince's words are quite right.

However, it was obvious that his words made Emperor Kangxi very happy.

"Yinreng is a sensible kid." Emperor Kangxi raised his voice and said, "Master Tong, don't you think so?"

Tong Guowei didn't expect that he would be called by name, so he could only stand up bravely: "Yes, the emperor is right."

He was very low-key today.

Because the Eighth Prince whom he had recommended was demoted and demoted to an idle clan, there was no hope for him at the moment. The scholar Fucha who joined him in the charge also suffered a disaster. Now, for the sake of himself and his family, he had to restrain his sharp edge.

.

Emperor Kangxi seemed slightly drunk, but in fact he looked at Tong Guowei coldly.

Seeing that Tong Guowei did not intercede for the eighth elder brother, he raised his hand and asked Tong Guowei to sit back in his seat.

Master Tong was safe and sound, which made everyone in the room breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, most of the people in the court support Ba Age. If Mr. Tong Guowei is in trouble, then other officials of Ba Age's party who are implicated will probably be held accountable.

Tong Guowei obviously felt that the atmosphere around him had relaxed, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He lowered his head and drank sullenly.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Kangxi suddenly said something at this time, which made everyone in the venue feel excited.

"It's great that Xiaoba is pregnant." Emperor Kangxi said slowly, "In that case, why not have a double happiness?"

Everyone's hearts, which had just been relieved, suddenly rose again.

Everyone is secretly exchanging glances with each other - nothing else has happened recently, so where does the "joy" come from? The emperor must have mentioned it, but it is the big event that everyone has been paying attention to recently!

Everyone was waiting for an answer and suddenly became nervous, but they did not dare to show it too obviously in front of the emperor.

At this time, the fourth elder brother turned around and glanced at the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother.

The two brothers looked at each other understandingly.

The thirteenth elder brother stood up first, laughed loudly and asked: "I wonder what happy event the emperor would like to have?"

The fourteenth elder brother said leisurely: "This happy event must be bigger. Otherwise, it cannot be compared with the happy event of the eighth princess's pregnancy."

Emperor Kangxi was very satisfied with the two sons' foresight and said with a smile: "Of course they can be compared."

He held the empty wine glass, glanced at the prince, and motioned for him to fill it up.

A prince hurriedly picked up the wine pot and filled the empty cup.

Emperor Kangxi said with a smile: "Yinreng has grown up a lot during this time." He looked at the child he had raised with his own hands slightly drunkenly, and said happily: "You look calmer than before."

The first prince is now middle-aged. When his father praised him like this, he smiled suddenly, and all kinds of feelings came to his heart: "Thank you, Emperor Ama, for the compliment."

"In the past, you were unreliable in your work, and there was always something missing." Emperor Kangxi said, "Now that you are doing things in a comprehensive way, I will naturally give you back what is due to you."

The first prince was overjoyed and vaguely guessed it, but did not dare to confirm it.

He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, his fingertips trembled, and he knelt down: "I don't know what the Emperor Ama means, so please express it clearly."

Emperor Kangxi's eyes passed over the scene, and finally settled on the first prince: "I think it is not appropriate for the East Palace to be empty. You grew up there, so why not move back."

The East Palace is the residence of the prince.

Emperor Kangxi's intention was clearly to reset the crown prince and make a prince the crown prince again.

When the fourth elder brother heard this, his smile did not change and he bowed and said: "My congratulations to the Emperor, His Majesty the Crown Prince!"

After the thirteenth and fourteenth elder brothers looked at each other, they followed the fourth elder brother and said: "Congratulations to the Emperor! Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Seeing this, others followed suit.

For a time, this family banquet was full of joy.

The position of the East Palace has finally been settled, and this time some people are really happy and some are sad.

After the family banquet, the fifteenth elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother hurriedly found their mother and concubine and said happily: "My concubine is right! It is indeed right to follow the fourth brother!"

Although the fourth elder brother was not close to them, the mother-in-law told them to act according to the fourth elder brother, and they did so.

Now we have a good result.

Concubine Mi was very satisfied with her vision and said with some complacency: "Brother Si is able to achieve success not only because of his own ability, but also because Si Fujin does things properly."

Among these princes Fujin, the only one she likes is Si Fujin.

Of course, the Crown Princess is not bad, but sometimes she looks at things too narrowly.

But if the prince doesn't do things properly, then the princess can't display her great abilities.

The fifteenth elder brother asked: "Concubine, why don't we give gifts to Si Fujin?"

After the little princess of the Sifu Jin family was born, people in the palace sent congratulatory gifts one after another. However, the secret concubine reminded the two sons to stay put and not to send gifts yet.

So the two brothers were very confused.

Concubine Mi thought for a while and said: "Concubine De has three sons, and I have two sons. Together, you have five elder brothers. It's too conspicuous. We don't want to attract people to look at Sifujin, so we'd better not go with her."

Too close."

The two brothers seemed to understand but still nodded obediently.

At this time, Yinzhen happened to be passing by not far away.

Mi Fei took the initiative to call out "Si Baile", smiled and went over to chat for a few words. She also called her two sons over to talk to Si Age for a while, and then they left.

After Yinzhen returned home, he told his family Fujin what had happened today, and said: "This secret concubine is also interesting. Back then, she always pestered you and chased you to talk, but now she doesn't pester you anymore, but occasionally

She shows her face in front of you and me, as if she is afraid that we will forget her."

Luo Jianing thought of the concubine's past and muttered: "She is a capable person. When she had no status, she worked hard to fight for a future for her sons. Once she has status, she keeps a low profile."

Such people often live a long life in the palace.

When Yinzhen heard this, he smiled and took off his coat.

Now that Luo Jianing is not out of confinement, although she has left the delivery room and fallen asleep in the house, it is not suitable for the two of them to sleep in the same bed.
