Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children

After Zarafen got married, Yinzhen became fascinated with Buddhism. In the past, he would just hold a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, but now he would invite great monks to the palace to sit and debate scriptures with him.

Yinzhen was a very intelligent and highly savvy person. He was excellent in riding and shooting, but not in other aspects. Therefore, he was also quite accomplished in Buddhism, and had the method of sudden enlightenment of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng.

"Is Father going to become a monk?" Hongxi muttered to himself, "Didn't our Aixinjueluo ancestors have an emperor monk? Could it be Father too?"

Shen Jiang slapped him on the forehead and scolded him, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Yinzhen did this just to create an appearance of "purity of mind and few desires". How does that saying go?

Not fighting is fighting!

There was no other sound in Prince Yong's mansion except the sound of chanting sutras and holding a ceremony, but outside, there was a great commotion.

After the crown prince was reinstated, he not only failed to reform, but became increasingly tyrannical, and his dissatisfaction with Kangxi grew day by day. He was afraid of and hated his father, and almost gave up on himself, wanting to destroy himself along with him.

After the 51st year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, the Crown Prince and Soetu's old party had frequent secret meetings, and among these people were Toheqi, the governor of the Nine Gates, and Liang Jiugong, the chief steward of the imperial court!

At the secret meeting, the prince actually uttered such outrageous words as "Has there ever been a prince who served for forty years in the world, since ancient times?"

Emperor Kangxi was disheartened after hearing the news, but he was not as excited as he was when he deposed the crown prince. Instead, he quietly sentenced Tohazi and others to death and imprisoned Liang Jiugong.

Later, in October of the 51st year of the Kangxi reign, the crown prince was deposed for the second time.

"It's okay to do it once but not a third time. I don't think Khan Ama will care about the deep affection between father and son this time!" In Prince Yong's Mansion, Yinzhen said slowly, holding a rosary.

Shen Jiang was leisurely brewing tea. After taking the second boiling tea, he handed it to Yinzhen and said, "No matter how deep the relationship between father and son is, it cannot withstand such torture."

Yinzhen took the tea, drank it slowly, and said, "No matter how strong the wind blows, I will remain unmoved."

The two of them then lived a life of wealth and leisure in Prince Yong's mansion, but they did not miss any news from the outside world.

I heard that after the second crown prince was deposed, the eighth prince was ready to make a move again.

This "stupid" means literally.

Because he actually ran to Kangxi and said: "Now in this situation, I don't know what to do. It's better to claim that I'm sick and don't let the court officials embarrass Khan Ama."

Kangxi looked at his son coldly. He didn't expect that after several years, people in the court were still supporting this "Eighth Wise King"!

How could he, an emperor, be held hostage by a prince and court officials?

Kangxi became more and more disgusted with the Eighth Prince, so after sending him away, he summoned Yinzhen into the palace.

"I heard that you have been studying Buddhism at home recently. Have you made any progress?" Kangxi asked Yinzhen.

Yinzhen smiled and said, "I dare not say that I have accomplished everything, but I have some ideas that I would like to discuss with you."

"Oh? Tell me."

The father and son simply went to the meditation room and sat opposite each other to debate the sutras. Both of them had attainments in Buddhism, and after this back and forth, they were quite evenly matched.

As dusk fell, Kangxi smiled and said, "Let's stop here today!"

When he left the palace, he was still angry about the Eighth Prince, but by now he had calmed down.

Yinzhen stayed for dinner and said, "Honghui and the others miss Khan Ama very much."

Kangxi hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

After dinner, he tested several children on their homework one by one.

Honghui was his favorite, but Hongshi was not. Although Hongzhao was still young, he was also good at studying. As for Hongxi, he was smart, but he never used his intelligence in the right way, which made Kangxi angry and amused.

"You should learn from your elder brother!" Kangxi said. Then he asked the children to go out first and talked to Yinzhen and his wife about Honghui's marriage. "Honghui is sixteen this year, and it's time for him to get married."

Yinzhen knew that he had no say in Honghui's marriage, so he said generously, "It's up to Khan Ama to decide."

Kangxi said: "Honghui is the prince of Prince Yong's mansion. I will not treat him unfairly."

After he returned to the palace, he asked someone to send him a list of women of marriageable age from the eight major Manchu families. In the end, he chose two, one was Huifa Nara, thirteen years old, and the other was Socho Luo, twelve years old.

He asked Concubine De to bring the two girls into the palace for a look. After meeting the two girls, Concubine De said, "Both children are good. Whether in appearance or behavior, they are both gentle and kind."

Kangxi asked her to think again and see what the difference was. After thinking again and again, Defei could only say, "Suochuoruo is prettier than Huifa Nara."

Kangxi was actually obsessed with looks, he chose people based on their abilities and looks. For example, Li Xu, a Suzhou native whom he trusted, was quite good-looking.

After hearing what Defei said, she thought Kangxi would choose Suochuoluo as Honghui's wife. As a result, Kangxi nodded and said, "Then Suochuoluo will be the concubine, and Huifa Nara will be the principal wife."

Concubine De took a deep breath and stammered, "Your Majesty, Honghui is only the prince of Prince Yong and has no meritorious service. How can he point fingers at the two wives?"

Kangxi waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I know what to do."

When the news reached Prince Yong's Mansion, Yinzhen and Shen Jiang were also very surprised, especially Shen Jiang, whose son was only fifteen years old and was going to marry two wives at once!

When she was eleven years old, she was betrothed to the fourteen-year-old Yinzhen, but because she was young, it was just an arranged marriage and did not take place.

Shen Jiang said, "Khan Ama has good intentions, but it will attract too much attention. Besides, I don't want Honghui to get married too early."

Yinzhen said, "It's just an arranged marriage, it will take at least one or two years to get married. Besides, Huifa Nara and Suochuoruo are not that old, so it won't happen that fast."

Kangxi thought so too. It would take at least two years to go through the three letters and six ceremonies for the grandson he valued the most and the granddaughter-in-law he specially selected.

As expected, Honghui did not get married until the 53rd year of Kangxi's reign, after the empress dowager's mourning period.

And in this year, the famous "Eagle Killing Incident" occurred in history.

After Honghui got married, Kangxi seemed to have put his mind at ease, and in November he went on a tour to the frontier.

At this time, the Eighth Prince had just finished offering sacrifices to Concubine Liang and should have gone to the temporary palace to see the emperor immediately. However, he did not do so, but went to the Tangquan Palace and sent two falcons as gifts.

When Kangxi lifted the black cloth on the birdcage, the falcon inside was already dying.

Kangxi had always felt that he was old and frail and unable to deal with his young and strong sons. When he saw such a "implied" gift, he immediately flew into a rage!

Thus, a famous line in history was born: Yinsi, the son of a lowly woman in the Xinzheku!

It is said that this son has been insidious and cunning since he was young. He once rebelled and murdered the crown prince, and even formed a clique to protect him as the crown prince. Today, I have severed all ties with this son!

After these words were spoken, the Eighth Prince completely cut off his possibility of succeeding to the throne.

He also angrily rebuked his followers, the Ninth, Tenth and Fourteenth, which basically eliminated the possibility of them being appointed as the crown prince.
