Chapter 452 Best Brother
Chapter 452 Best Brother
Seeing the obvious disbelief on Saiyinchahun's face, Yinzhi's eyes turned red.
"I just thought her expression was too hateful and wanted to grab her face, but I'm not as tall as her and those servants are useless, so I had to do it myself.
I originally wanted to grab her collar and pull her down, but before I could even put any strength in, her clothes came undone, and she looked like she had suffered a great injustice!
Ji Nai's eyes flashed as he looked at Wei Zhu. Seeing that Wei Zhu also looked thoughtful, he decided not to care about it.
"You've been tricked."
Saiyin Chahun said confidently, "Is it because her clothes were damaged that she started to cry out in anger? Your mother must have wanted to suppress the matter directly, but she couldn't stop her."
"Ah."
Yinzhen lowered his head. At that time, his mother really wanted the other person to die, but the other person was making too much noise and she couldn't catch him for a while. Then the emperor came.
"Whether your mother succeeded but ultimately died without witnessing, or the Emperor went there and saw the man in that state and infuriated him by injuring you, you will definitely bear the blame."
Saiyinchahun looked at his mother. If his mother had not followed him today, this younger brother might not be here anymore... Did his mother know something, or was it just a coincidence?
Chengrui glared at Saiyinchahun. What if the truth of the matter wasn't like this? Wouldn't his brother's words give him something to talk about? This wasn't their Zhongcui Palace's business, so why bother getting involved?
Chengrui is a soft-hearted person, but after experiencing the poisoning incident, he realized that the White House is full of dangers and enemies. It is rare for him not to harm others actively or add insult to injury.
Of course, Chengrui is happy to help if he can, but the prerequisite is that Zhongcui Palace will not be dragged into the water.
Saiyin Chahun understood what his elder brother meant. He just thought his brother was too naive. Yinzhen was his father's child and a prince of the Qing Dynasty. How could he bear such a terrible reputation?
Even if what he said is not the truth, it will become the truth in the end.
After all, they were all children, and Saiyin Chahun and Yinzhen were only one year apart in age. It would be easy for them to fight if the former was willing to make friends.
Saiyinchahun showed off his many treasures to Yinzhi in the name of sharing, but in fact he would not let Yinzhi get close to his most precious treasures, such as Rongxian, Yinhua and Yinfu.
Yinzhen, with envy in his eyes, was very unconvinced and said stubbornly, "I will have these too."
Saiyin Chahun would not bother with these little things and agreed, "Of course. Before, you lived outside the palace, and it was inconvenient to transport things. Now that you are back, Concubine Hui will definitely replenish these things for you."
As for whether it was supplemented in the end, that was the business of the Yanx Palace. It was something that Yinzhen's mother herself did not think of, so it was none of his business.
Seeing that his younger brother was cheating people again, Chengrui looked at his mother worriedly.
"Don't worry, Saiyin Chahun is a smart kid who knows what he's doing. Besides, he has no ill intentions, he's just playing a prank. Chengrui should trust that his brother knows his limits."
In fact, even if Ji Nai or Cheng Rui tried to stop it, it would be useless. Saiyin Chahun was indeed very smart, so smart that he could carry out his plan without telling them.
Ji Nai was also worried before, but just like Yuan Xu said, breaking up a couple will only deepen their friendship. Although the example is not quite appropriate, the principle is the same.
For a smart child like Saiyin Chahun, the more he is obstructed, the more likely he is to develop a rebellious mentality, so he can only be guided. Ji Nai cannot compete with Saiyin Chahun in wits and courage, so he can only hand him over to Kangxi, who is also extremely smart.
But after seeing the father and son interacting with each other and enjoying themselves, Ji Nai became even more worried.
But every time Kangxi comforted her, saying, "It's okay. I'm here and I won't let Saiyin Chahun cause any big trouble."
With him around, Ji Nai was more worried.
Haven’t you seen how Kangxi doted on Yinreng in his previous life? He really did dote on him to the point where he was afraid of dropping him if he held him in his hands, and afraid of melting him if he held him in his mouth. But later on, he could be so heartless, as if the previous father-son warmth had never existed.
Yinzhen stayed in Zhongcui Palace for the whole afternoon. When Kangxi came back, he had successfully become the "best" brother with Saiyin Chahun.
Ji Nai had already learned the whole story from Yuan Xu who had returned earlier, and Yinzhen was indeed wronged.
Even though Yinzhen didn't say anything at the time, Kangxi, who had calmed down, was still very concerned about his son. He also had Huipin, who was protective of him, by his side. The two of them almost turned the entire Yanx Palace upside down, and naturally they found that there was something wrong with Concubine Wu's clothes.
It's just that it wasn't her who did it, but the palace maids around her, but it's no different from what she did.
The case could have been concluded at this point, but Concubine Wu refused to plead guilty no matter what. She kept crying out for injustice and even revealed her true feelings.
She said that she really wanted to use this incident to destroy Yinzhen, but she was just taking advantage of the situation. She was unwilling to see her reputation damaged after today while the prince was safe and sound.
But she never thought of using her own reputation to ruin Prince Yinzhen, as doing so would not benefit herself in any way.
At that time, Kangxi and Huipin began to investigate the servants around Yinzhen. After listening to Wu Shufei's cry of injustice, they felt that her words might not be untrue. After all, Wu Shufei and Huipin had no personal grudge, so there was no need to fight to the point of mutual destruction.
They were worried that there was another force behind this, and if they left it alone, Yinzhen would still be under threat, so they continued to investigate.
Concubine Wu lost all her strength at that moment and collapsed to the ground.
She didn't have the energy to care whether she had lost her composure or not. She only knew that her life was saved. Even if the Emperor was not trying to give her justice, as long as she continued to investigate, she would know the truth.
There is a difference between doing something intentionally and going with the flow. Even if she will still be punished afterwards, at least her life is saved. As long as she is alive, there is a chance.
After learning all this, Ji Nai felt bad. Nara was too useless. She couldn't even manage her own Yanx Palace. Now, at least in the short term, Kangxi would not be at ease with Yinzhen living in Yanx Palace.
Elsewhere, the Qianqing Palace was of extraordinary significance. Crown Prince Yinreng could live there, but Prince Yinzhen could not, unless Kangxi wanted to see his ministers fighting and shedding blood for the credit of following him.
Although the South Three Houses were quieter, Yinzhen himself was not a child who could be trusted. Until he learned the rules, Kangxi would not let him out of Nara's sight.
Doesn't that mean that only Zhongcui Palace is left?
But what surprised Ji Nai was that after Kangxi returned to Zhongcui Palace, he did not mention this matter.
Ji Nai clearly saw that Kangxi seemed to be hesitant to speak, but in the end he said nothing and did not allow Ji Nai to ask. Every time Ji Nai was about to speak, Kangxi would deliberately interrupt him. After several times, Ji Nai no longer understood what Kangxi meant.
