After Yu Ying'er's rebirth, she became addicted to teasing Concubine Hua

Inside the Yangxin Palace, the emperor looked at the skinny but firmly kneeling little kid in front of him. Even the luxurious and warm clothes on his body were hastily made just for the emperor, and thus looked a little rough.

This scene made him feel extremely strange. The feeling of blood connection and strangeness and alienation made the emperor frown.

At the same time, the emperor felt guilty when he thought about his disregard for Hong Zhou and his mother, which led to Concubine Yu's death in Lishui Palace. It was outrageous that he only knew about it now.

"Hongzhou, get up quickly. You must be tired after traveling all the way." Feeling guilty, the emperor stood up and helped Hongzhou up himself.

Hong Zhou hadn't seen his royal father for three years. He was somewhat resistant to the emperor's approach and subconsciously shrank back. However, due to the imperial power, he didn't dare to make any big moves, so he felt a little stiff.

"Father, I am not tired, it's just that my mother..." When Hong Zhou talked about his mother, he suddenly felt sad and uncomfortable. When his mother was alive, she protected him everywhere and let him live a carefree life. But after his mother passed away for more than a year, the people in Lishui Palace tortured him like this. It was enough to show how much effort his mother had used to protect him. The more he thought about it, the more his nose felt sore and he wanted to cry.

When talking about Concubine Yu, the emperor did not feel that he had done anything wrong, nor did he feel very sad. He just felt a little guilty. He felt guilty that he had carelessly placed her in the Lishui Palace and then ignored her, which showed that he was not a good father.

"Your mother has suffered a lot. I will posthumously confer the title of Imperial Concubine Yuxian on her and bury her in the Imperial Concubine Mausoleum. You will first live with Su Peisheng in Xiefang Palace. I will choose a good foster mother for you. She will definitely treat you like your mother. Don't worry." The emperor promised Hong Zhou. The guilt at the moment prompted him to compensate Hong Zhou. "Later, I will ask someone to buy good things and servants for your residence. If you need anything or want something in the future, just send someone to find Su Peisheng. He will prepare it for you."

Such a promise was already considered the best from the emperor's mouth.

Hong Zhou knew that he was not favored by the Emperor when he was still in the palace, and now he had been separated from the Emperor for three years. He was already very satisfied that his mother could be posthumously honored. He did not dare to ask for too much, and only hoped that his adoptive mother would be a good person.

"Thank you, Father! I'll take my leave." Hong Zhou performed the proper etiquette between an emperor and his subjects, then followed Su Peisheng and left. Su Peisheng took him to Xiefang Palace.

The emperor sat in his seat, looked at Xiao Xiazi who was standing guard below, rubbed his temples gently, and shouted: "Xiao Xiazi, go and ask Concubine Rou, and tell her that I have something to ask her."

"Yeah." Xiao Xia Zi shuddered and responded immediately. Then she retreated according to the rules and went happily to Chuxiu Palace.

After delivering the message, he received a lot of rewards, so he happily took Yu Ying'er to meet the emperor. On the way, because of Yu Ying'er's questioning, he became a chatterbox, chattering away, and revealed some small details of the emperor's previous meeting with Hong Zhou.

After entering the palace, Yu Ying'er first bowed and paid her respects, and then was pulled by the emperor to sit on a small stool beside him. The emperor patted the back of her hand gently and asked, "Ying'er, you are here. I saw Hong Zhou today. He was so thin and small. He was really wronged. If it weren't for you, Ying'er, I'm afraid Hong Zhou would have been tortured to death in the Lishui Palace, and I didn't even know about it. Those dogs dared to plot against the concubines and the prince. I have to kill them all to vent my anger."

The emperor spoke very gently, very slowly, and he didn't look angry at all. It really fits the saying that one should not show one's emotions on one's face, and no one can withstand the emperor's wrath.

"Your Majesty is wise." Yu Ying'er blinked her eyes. "I have always felt that Your Majesty is a wise king of the Qing Dynasty, and a father who loves his children. It is a blessing for the world, the people, and your children to have such a wise king like Your Majesty. It is also a blessing for me... It is a blessing for me."

After all the praise, the emperor suddenly felt a little elated, as if this was how he should be. He couldn't help but gently pinched Yu Ying'er's hand, which he felt was soft and boneless and very comfortable.

Yu Ying'er had long understood that the emperor was a creature that you had to keep like a cat. You had to obey him. If you obeyed him, you would be rewarded. If you angered him, you would be hurt by his sharp claws. Now, Yu Ying'er had completely mastered this skill and could use it freely to coax the emperor.

"Well, as long as Ying'er feels this way, I will be satisfied." The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, patted the back of Ying'er's hand again, and looked out the window. "Hongzhou is still young, and he has to endure the pain of losing his mother. I feel particularly distressed when I see this, so I want to find a foster mother for Hongzhou. Does Ying'er have any recommendations?"

When the emperor spoke, he stopped clapping and his eyes slowly moved to Yu Ying'er's face. He was still smiling, but there was a scrutiny in his eyes.

He can pamper Yu Ying'er and spoil her, but it doesn't mean he can be kind to those who are eyeing his throne. He is testing her. If Yu Ying'er dares to say the name of anyone from Nian Shilan's party today, she will fall out of favor if she walks out of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

His Wanwan can only have him in her heart and cannot have any other thoughts, not even for the sake of her son.

Qiqi had already explained the emperor's thoughts and considerations to Yu Ying'er, and she had even thought of a countermeasure for Yu Ying'er.

Yu Ying'er still smiled gently, and said in confusion: "Your Majesty, you should discuss such an important matter with the Queen. The Queen is the legitimate mother of all the royal heirs. Even if the Queen wants to raise the Fifth Prince, she should be the most suitable person."

Although this answer did not get full marks, it made the emperor relax a little. He still said tentatively: "I will naturally ask the Queen, but today I just want to discuss with Ying'er and choose a suitable foster mother for Hongzhou's situation to heal the scars in his heart."

The emperor also experienced the loss of his mother at a young age, and was finally told that his mother was Concubine De. When he returned to Concubine De, he was ignored, targeted, and disliked. So he didn't want Hong Zhou to be like this. He knew the queen's temperament and that the queen was not suitable to raise Hong Zhou.

The emperor was also afraid that Hong Zhou would follow his old path, and he was concerned about everything. After all, a prince with asthma posed no threat to him, and he was willing to show him more pity.

Seeing that the emperor insisted, Yu Ying'er started the second plan that Qi Qi had given at the beginning. She pretended to think for a long time before she said, "The only two high-ranking officials in the palace who don't have children are Concubine Jing and Concubine Li. But Concubine Li is like a child herself. She loves playing with Hongyao and Fubao. I'm afraid she is not suitable for raising the fifth prince. Concubine Jing is an old person in the Qiandi Palace, and now she helps the queen manage the palace affairs. After getting along with Concubine Jing, I feel that she is a gentle and elegant person with a motherly heart. It is also a good choice to hand over the fifth prince to Concubine Jing. Of course, this is just my humble opinion. The final decision is up to the emperor."

The candidate chosen coincided with the one in the emperor's mind. The emperor originally wanted to take advantage of the power between Concubine Jing Pinghe Yixiu and Nian Shilan. Both teams had offspring except Concubine Jing. Now it was the right time to bring the Fifth Prince back.

"Ying'er really has the same mind as mine. I also think that Concubine Jing is a good choice." The emperor still stared at Yu Ying'er as he said this, as if he wanted to see through this human skin to see Yu Ying'er's true thoughts. "I will issue an order right now. What do you think, Ying'er?"
