Chapter 397: Bad-tempered Yinzhi
Chapter 397: Bad-tempered Yinzhi
But when Ama asked, no matter how stupid Chengrui was, he knew he couldn't tell the truth, so he pulled out the scene that he remembered most clearly.
Yuan Xu was so shocked that his jaw dropped. "Do you think Chengrui did this on purpose?"
[How is it possible? Chengrui doesn't know the cause of Chengqing's death, let alone Hesheli's plan.]
"So, Chengrui is naturally black?"
He clearly knew nothing, but he just mentioned a younger brother about whom he had a vague impression. When asked by Kangxi, he just mentioned the scene of several children playing together in Shoukang Palace.
However, in Chengrui's eyes, that scene showed harmony between brothers, but in the eyes of all those who knew about it, they knew that hidden beneath the illusion was the cruelty of Hesheli.
Kangxi naturally could think of what Ji Nai and Yuan Xu could think of. He didn't want to recall that scene, nor did he want to hear anyone mention it, but he couldn't bear to tell the naive Chengrui the truth, so he could only remain silent.
Ji Nai quickly changed the subject and asked, "Yinzhen has been raised outside the palace. I don't know what he looks like now or what his personality is like."
Saiyinchahun wanted to ask why Yinzhen was kept outside the palace, but Ji Nai blocked his question with a glare, so he could only snort in dissatisfaction.
What's the big deal? Even if you don't let him ask, he will know later.
"Yinzhen has a rather rude personality. In comparison, what Saiyin Chahun did can only be considered as minor actions."
Kangxi looked at the angry Saiyinchahun and sincerely felt that although this kid often made him angry, he could be considered cute compared to Yinzhen.
When Ji Nai saw Kangxi's face full of annoyance and displeasure, he knew that Yinzhen's character was probably more than just rudeness.
Isn't this the case with Yinzhen in his previous life? Although Nala spent a lot of effort to change Yinzhen's temper after returning to the palace, it was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.
At the critical moment, his character flaws were fully exposed, otherwise, he would not have lost so badly in the battle for the throne of Kowloon.
"Don't be angry, Your Majesty. Yinzhen is not a bad person by nature. He was just raised outside the palace before. He is a descendant of the royal family. How can a minister dare to restrain him? That's why he is a little presumptuous.
When he returns to the palace, he will naturally change with the guidance of you and Huipin. "
When Kangxi heard Ji Nai mention Nara, his brows frowned even more tightly. With Nara's temper, how could she educate Yinzhen well? It would be good if she didn't lead him astray.
"After Yinzhen returns to the palace, I don't plan to let him live in the Yanx Palace." Chengrui was still living in the South Three Houses. If Kangxi wanted to let Yinzhen, who was difficult to get along with, move in, he had to tell Ji Nai.
Ji Nai frowned.
Yinzhen had just returned, and he probably had not yet recognized his status and reality. Before Kangxi taught him a lesson, he probably thought that life was the same as it was outside the palace:
No matter what I do, everyone will flatter me and give in to me. Even if I do something too much, I will not be punished.
He was afraid that Chengrui would meet Yinzhi, who was too young to have a brain, and would be bullied by him. Even if Yinzhi was taught a lesson afterwards, Chengrui would still be hurt.
Moreover, Ji Nai had no intention of breaking up with the Yanx Palace at this time, but if Chengrui was bullied by Yinzhen, Ji Nai knew her own temper and she would not let Nara and Yinzhen go.
"What's wrong? You don't agree?" Ji Nai's reaction was so obvious that Kangxi couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to.
"Your Majesty, Huipin loves children very much. Chengqing was spoiled by her...
Yinzhen finally came back, if he were to move directly into the South Third Residence, I’m afraid Huipin would not agree.”
"She doesn't agree? What qualifications does she have to comment on the decision I made?" Kangxi's words were very domineering, but it was indeed the fact.
Ji Nai rolled his eyes and said, "No one dares to disobey your order, but can't you consider me for a moment?
The palace affairs are now all piled on the shoulders of Concubine Hui and Concubine Hui. If she gets sick or injured, Concubine Hui alone will not be able to handle it."
The reason why Ji Nai said this was not to show that he was incompetent. When the Empress Dowager was in charge of the palace, she did not seem to be incapable, so she took the initiative to delegate power to the concubines.
However, the title is not right and the words are not convincing. Ji Nai was only assisting in managing the palace affairs. If Ji Nai is the only one who can manage the palace affairs in the end, who knows how many conspiracy theories will arise.
Ji Nai didn't want that whenever she was promoted in the future, people would secretly speculate that she was one step closer to the Empress.
The ambition of the bondservant woman who is eyeing the throne is not ambition, it is a joke.
Kangxi touched his nose. He had chosen three people to help Ji Nai manage the harem. As a result, Dong surrendered to Hesheli and went against his wishes. Irgen Juelu was not a quiet person either. He seemed quite smart before he got the power of the palace. Who knew he was actually a brainless person.
And then, Socho Luo, who was about to replace her, was delayed because of the injury of the Fifth Princess.
Kangxi knew how lazy Ji Nai was. The power that others dreamed of was a trouble in her eyes. Before, she could still be a hands-off boss because of her pregnancy and the birth of a child, but now she has to take on the main responsibility. For this, Ji Nai complained to him many times.
If even Nara couldn't handle the palace affairs, not to mention that the outside world would pay more attention to Zhongcui Palace, Ji Nai would be the first to make trouble with me.
"But you also know Nara's character. She is not a good teacher. Yinzhen has already picked up bad habits outside the palace. If he gets close to Nara, who knows what kind of person he will become."
Ji Nai knew that Kangxi would say this. Anyway, all his own children were good. If there were any bad ones, it must be that others led his children astray.
"Huipin only has Yinzhen as a child. Can the separation of mother and son prevent them from getting close?"
Ji Nai directly pointed out the crux of the problem: it was impossible for Kangxi to stop Nara's influence on Yinzhen.
Unless Kangxi was ruthless and directly changed Yinzhen's jade book and did not recognize the mother-son relationship between Yinzhen and Nara. However, Kangxi would not do so.
Kangxi, who lacked maternal love, would not easily break up the bond between the crown prince and his mother in most of the time. After Nara attacked Chenghu, Kangxi never punished her in this way. Now that Nara has not made any more mistakes, it is even less likely that Kangxi will do so.
"Besides, Yinzhi is younger than Saiyinchahun. If Yinzhi wants to move to the South Third Residence, does Saiyinchahun have to move as well? Has Your Majesty considered the Empress Dowager?"
When Kangxi heard Ji Nai mention the Empress Dowager and Saiyin Chahun, he got a headache. He knew best how much his stepmother doted on Saiyin Chahun.
When Saiyinchahun made mistakes before, Kangxi wanted to take action several times but never did so because he was concerned about the feelings of the Empress Dowager.
But the Grand Empress Dowager felt guilty towards the Empress Dowager and always agreed to her requests. If Saiyin Chahun had not been able to listen to Chengrui's advice and was afraid of his mother, a tyrant would have appeared in the Forbidden City.
