Chapter 994 Kangxi's Harem, Consort Liang (31)

"Master, the Fourth Prince is so pitiful."

Xiao Huzi couldn't help but complain, "Kangxi was a terrible person. He handed the fourth prince over to Empress Tong to raise, but he didn't change his imperial edict."

This caused Empress Tong regret and Consort De resentment.

His son is practically being played to death by his three elders.

"It's alright, not only did he not die, but he also got the throne in history."

Li Siqi responded calmly, "It just so happens that the saying goes, 'When Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a person, it first tests their will, strains their muscles and bones, starves their body, and empties their resources.'"

His suffering may be a test for him.

Besides, it's not true that if you want to wear a crown, you have to bear its weight.

The fourth brother may be pitiful, but God still rewarded him.

Unlike the original owner of this body and her son, whose fate was truly tragic.

"What the master says makes sense."

Little Pot suddenly had a new idea, "Master, what if we could change the Fourth Prince's predicament?"

Will he become the Yongzheng Emperor?

"I do not know about this."

"Master, shall we give it a try?"

"You mean you don't want to return the fourth prince to Consort De?"

Li Siqi raised her eyebrows, showing some interest. "If I remember correctly, Consort De is about to conceive the Ninth Princess, who will later become the Fifth Princess."

"Yes, it'll be soon!"

Little Pot nodded. "She'll get pregnant either this year or next year."

"By the way, Master, do you think Consort De will still try to send the Ninth Princess to Kangshou Palace to be raised by the Empress Dowager?"

"probably not."

Li Siqi chuckled, "The Empress Dowager isn't one to meddle in other people's business."

Furthermore, since she didn't like Consort De, she certainly wouldn't offer to adopt the daughter Consort De gave birth to.

Besides, the current Emperor Kangxi doesn't have any bias towards Consort De.

It's impossible to readily agree to Consort De's demands.

Unless Emperor Kangxi intervenes on her behalf, Consort De has no power to leave her daughter in the care of the Empress Dowager.

"That's true."

Xiao Huzi nodded, "Given Consort De's desire for a son, it would be a huge blow to her if she were to have another daughter."

But in the end, it's still the fourth brother who's unlucky.

She's going back to her biased mother, Consort De.

Not only will he not have a good life, but after Ulanara enters the palace...

This young wife was even more unlucky.

"Master, do you think we should find another foster mother for the fourth son?"

"Kangxi would not allow it."

Li Siqi responded, "Unless Consort Wenxi is willing to raise him."

Otherwise, no one else would be suitable.

"Consort Wenxi is indeed suitable."

Xiao Huzi added, "There are also a few imperial concubines who can be chosen."

It all depends on whether Emperor Kangxi is willing.

"It's too early to talk about this now."

"It's definitely too early!"

……

As Empress Tong's coffin was taken away.

The harem returned to peace.

The mourning process took a whole month, and no one had the energy to find fault with it.

Everyone went through a quiet period.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

With the arrival of the holy carriage.

Li Siqi had no choice but to get up and greet the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I greet you. May Your Majesty be well!"

"My beloved concubine, you may dispense with the formalities!"

Kangxi reached out and pulled the person up, asking as they walked, "Where is Xiao Ba?"

"Did you go to Kangshou Palace again?"

"Correct!"

Li Siqi gets a headache whenever she mentions Xiao Ba, "That kid loves to eat too much meat."

Your concubine wants to control his consumption of meat.

Dissatisfied, he went to Kangshou Palace.

Only the Empress Dowager would not restrict his eating of meat.

It seems he's willing to abandon me for that piece of meat.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Emperor Kangxi was amused and laughed heartily, "Little Eight is still young, if he likes to eat meat, let him eat it."

What are you restricting him from doing?

"Your Majesty, why don't you take a look at how much your big fat son weighs?"

Li Siqi glared at him irritably, "If you don't control his meat consumption, I think he'll become a chubby fatso in the future."

"It's not that exaggerated."

Emperor Kangxi chuckled, “It’s alright. No matter how fat a two-year-old child is, he will slim down as he grows up.”

"hope so!"

Li Siqi pouted, "If he gets so fat that he's unsightly in the future, I will definitely not let him return to Changchun Palace. It hurts my eyes to see him like that."

"How dare you, as a mother, say such a thing?"

Emperor Kangxi was both amused and exasperated. He couldn't help but pat her hand and say, "Don't worry, how could the child you give birth to be as fat as a ball?"

Xiao Ba looks a lot like you.

“His good looks are an advantage. If he were ugly and fat, there would be no hope for him.”

"Hahaha……"

Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but burst into laughter again.

Li Dequan, who was waiting outside, couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The only person in the entire harem who could make the Emperor happy was Consort Liang.

Of course, Consort Liang was also the most special in the Emperor's heart.

"You really know how to say anything."

Kangxi laughed and said, "If Xiao Ba heard this, he would be so heartbroken!"

Li Siqi replied absentmindedly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, your Eighth Prince is carefree and cheerful all the time. He won't be sad."

"My beloved concubine is so carefree, and Xiao Ba is just like you."

Emperor Kangxi really liked this girl.

He couldn't help but pull her into his arms, saying, "If they all took care of their children like you do, raising them well, making them healthy and sensible."

Then I won't have to worry about them.

"Your Majesty, what's going on?"

Li Siqi deliberately feigned curiosity, "What has troubled His Majesty this time?"

"It's all because of the fourth brother."

The smile on Kangxi's face vanished instantly. "I hereby order the fourth prince to return to Yonghe Palace and be cared for by Consort De."

Unexpectedly, Consort De refused outright.

He said he didn't have the energy to take care of the fourth child.

I cannot force you.

Xiao Liu's health is indeed not very good.

"But the fourth prince is neither too old nor too young, and it's giving me a real headache."

"So what is His Majesty's opinion?"

Li Siqi struggled out of his embrace and sat down beside him, looking at him. "Are you planning to find another foster mother for the Fourth Prince, or force him back to Yonghe Palace?"

"This one……"

Emperor Kangxi frowned. He had indeed never considered finding another adoptive mother for his fourth son.

In his view, none of the concubines in the harem were suitable.

Of course, the person in front of you is acceptable...

His eyes lit up at this thought, and he looked at her, asking, "My beloved concubine, why don't you help me take care of the fourth prince?"

"Your Majesty?"

Li Siqi looked surprised. "Your Majesty, you're not joking, are you?"

Do you think I am suitable?

"What's inappropriate?"

The more Kangxi thought about it, the more suitable it seemed.

After all, her maternal family was not of high status and would not be of any help to the empress's adopted son.

In addition, the person in front of me has an optimistic personality.

Maybe it can even change the fourth brother's dull personality.

Then he said, "My beloved concubine, please take care of the fourth prince for me!"

"Your Majesty, I don't mind at all."

Li Siqi raised her eyebrows and asked in return, "Does Your Majesty think Consort De is willing?"

Your character, that of Consort De, has absolutely nothing to do with the word 'virtuous' in the traditional sense.

"..."

Emperor Kangxi was speechless.

Seeing her nonchalant attitude, he had to gently scold her: "Only you would dare to talk nonsense in front of me."

Is this something a mere concubine like you should say?
