Chapter 174 Yongqi Refuses to Let Cailian Be His Concubine
Yongqi sighed, looked at Ziwei who was silently shedding tears, and asked softly, "Ziwei, what happened to you today? Why did you provoke Jingyan and his group for no reason?"
Xiaoyanzi was expelled from the palace because she provoked Jingyan, and Ziwei knew it.
Even he, the prince, avoids them, so why does Ziwei want to make things difficult for herself?
Yongqi couldn't figure it out, he just thought Ziwei might have been influenced by Xiaoyanzi and was no longer as gentle and steady as before.
Ziwei didn't say anything, just lowered her head and cried.
Now in the entire palace, only the Fifth Prince is willing to pay attention to her, and the Fifth Prince still gave Xiaoyanzi's face.
Ziwei cannot accept such a gap, she must change.
Yongqi didn't know what to say when he saw Ziwei like this.
As for women, he has always been patient only with Xiaoyanzi.
After returning to Shufangzhai, Ziwei burst into tears.
Jinsuo was very worried and asked her what injustice she had suffered today.
Ziwei cried and told everyone about how she was isolated today.
Jinsuo felt very sad when she heard this. She wondered why her mistress had such a miserable life.
"That is to say, we palace maids cannot follow you today. Otherwise, with me accompanying you, you wouldn't have to be so embarrassed, young lady."
Ziwei didn't say anything. What's the use of having a golden lock? She was just a palace maid after all. What she wanted was to be her master's friend.
Ziwei thought about it and decided that she would go to pay her respects to the old Buddha again in the future.
Ever since she lost face last time, Ziwei never went there again, and the old lady didn't say anything.
After all, in Karl Lagerfeld's view, greetings are about the thought, and he never asks for anything.
The emperor is busy with his daily affairs, and if she goes there too often, it might annoy him.
The Empress Dowager is a vegetarian and a Buddhist, and she has always liked young people. As long as you can please the Empress Dowager, there will be people who come to curry favor with her. After all, Jingyan and Qing'er are good examples.
So Ziwei still planned to start with the old lady.
Unfortunately, Ziwei had a beautiful thought, but the next second, the little Lu next to the emperor appeared.
Ziwei wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and thought that Xiao Luzi was sent by the emperor to calm her down.
Then, Xiao Luzi said, "Princess Huanzhu, the emperor has issued an order. Your words and actions today are inappropriate. You are to be confined to your room until the New Year. A nanny will be assigned to teach you the proper manners."
Ziwei didn't expect the emperor to actually confine her. She was a little incredulous: "Is the emperor right? How could he confine me?"
Xiao Luzi smiled slightly and took a step back. "Princess, you're joking. We dare not interfere with the emperor's order. Tomorrow, the nanny will report to Shufangzhai. I hope you will learn the rules well by then."
After saying that, Xiao Luzi left leisurely without caring about Ziwei's hysteria anymore.
As he walked out of Shufangzhai, he spat softly. What a person! He damaged the emperor's reputation in public and tried to slander the princess, the prince and others. Just house arrest was too light a punishment.
Ziwei fell to the ground, not understanding why things turned out like this.
On the other hand, back in Yonghe Palace, Concubine Yu seriously taught Yongqi to stay away from Ziwei in the future.
"Don't you see that person's identity? It's so embarrassing. Let it go in the past, but you must stay away from her in the future. Get closer to Jing Yanqing'er and Prince Heng. They are the ones who can help you."
For the first time ever, Yongqi did not refute Concubine Yu this time, but nodded silently, agreeing with Concubine Yu's point of view.
Seeing that her good son was finally willing to listen to her, Concubine Yu patted Yongqi's shoulder with relief and said, "Son, you must understand that in this world, I am the only one who wholeheartedly hopes for your well-being. I only hope that you can get well."
Yongqi nodded: "Son, I understand."
He knew how good his mother was to him, and he also knew how difficult it was for his mother to raise him. However, sometimes he couldn't help but develop some rebellious psychology, especially when it came to Xiaoyanzi.
It was a rare moment of loving kindness and filial piety between mother and son. Both of them enjoyed this time very much, so no one mentioned Xiaoyanzi's bombshell that could cause the mother and son to fall out.
"Well, you've been busy all day. You should go and rest. Cailian, go and help the prince wash up."
Cailian lowered her head and responded, then quickly turned around to prepare hot water and make the bed for Yongqi.
After Cailian left, Concubine Yu smiled and pulled Yongqi to her side: "Yongqi, mother has recently found Cailian to be quite good. When you get married, mother will decide whether to promote her to be your concubine. With such a steady person serving you, mother will be relieved."
It's better than those vixen girls out there.
I didn't expect that my mother could think of this. With Xiaoyanzi's jealous nature, she would definitely not tolerate Cailian.
He shook his head repeatedly: "Mother, Cailian is a good girl. It's unfair for her to be a concubine."
Yongqi's original intention was to refuse and help Cailian find a decent family to marry in the future. However, Concubine Yu heard that Yongqi liked Cailian very much and was no longer satisfied with having her as a concubine.
Concubine Yu laughed and said, "You silly child, she is just promoted from a palace maid to a concubine first, and can be promoted to a concubine in the future. When she gives birth to the emperor's grandson, she can also be promoted to a concubine."
After saying this, Concubine Yu lowered her voice mysteriously: "Mother consulted the imperial physician a few days ago, and Cailian is very easy to give birth to."
Seeing that Concubine Yu was indeed overthinking things, Yongqi shook his head helplessly: "Mother, what are you thinking? My son doesn't want a concubine, let alone a concubine."
Hearing Yongqi's words, Concubine Yu's face fell: "You child, even if it's not Cailian, there will be someone else in the future. Do you think that as the Fifth Prince, you can refuse?"
Yongqi looked at Concubine Yu, somewhat confused: "Why so many? I only need Xiaoyanzi."
Hearing Yongqi still thinking about Xiaoyanzi, Concubine Yu sighed, "As a prince, you shoulder the responsibility of expanding the royal family. Just one is not enough. Haven't you seen your royal father has three palaces and six courtyards?"
Yongqi didn't say anything. He still had fantasies about that position. So, being in that position, how could he not have three palaces and six courtyards?
Seeing that Yongqi no longer objected, Concubine Yu smiled and said, "If you really like that Xiaoyanzi, then after you marry a concubine, mother will take her back for you. Okay? As long as you can marry a dignified concubine with a good family background who can help you, that's all that's fine."
Yongqi didn't say anything, so Concubine Yu continued, "Good boy, Mother won't harm you. It's just that the choice of this concubine is really important. As long as you listen to Mother, Mother won't stop you from having anyone else you want, okay?"
Yongqi looked at Concubine Yu for a long time, then he gently uttered "no" and turned away.
For Xiaoyanzi, he would rather give up that position.
Aren't Jingyan and Yongheng's father and mother meant to be together forever? He can do it too.
Concubine Yu sighed as she looked at Yongqi's back. This child was really disobedient, but she knew her son well. As long as she, as his mother, insisted, he would not dare to disobey the emperor's decree.
