Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Chapter 299 Kangxi's Fury

As soon as the wailing of Concubine Wang was heard from inside, Yinyou and Yinlu, who were already anxiously waiting outside the tent, no longer cared about anything else and directly lifted the door curtain and rushed in anxiously.

Yinyou: "Mother, my eighteenth brother..."

Yinlu also said anxiously: "Mother!"

Yinzhen and his companions followed the two of them and walked in quickly.

After entering, everyone could clearly feel the aura of death permeating the tent.

Even if I didn't ask, I could already guess what was going on in the accounts.

My dear brother, who was laughing and playing with me yesterday, is gone forever today.

Although the royal family relationship is weak and not everyone has a deep brotherly relationship with Yinzhi, they are still somewhat touched.

The repressed emotions are like thick dark clouds, weighing heavily on everyone's heart.

Especially Yinyou and Yinlu, who were worried about their younger brother and mother.

As they entered the tent, their eyes fell on the small, lifeless body, and their hearts felt as if they were pierced by thousands of sharp arrows.

My already confused brain felt as if it had been hit hard by a hammer, and I felt a little groggy.

His voice was full of disbelief and trembling. He knelt in front of Khan Ama and asked while suppressing his grief.

"Eighteenth brother!"

"Eniang."

"Khan Ama, Yinzhi and E'niang..."

Kangxi looked back at his two devastated sons and said in a low voice, "Yinyu and Yinlu, little Eighteen is gone."

"Your mother fainted because she couldn't bear the shock."

Yinzhi and his companions also saw that Khan Ama, with a grief-stricken face, was putting down his eighteenth brother, who had already stopped breathing, from his arms, while Concubine Wang was lying unconscious on Yinzhi's sickbed.

Looking at the other sons coming in, Kangxi concealed the sad expression on his face.

Then he noticed that the prince was not there, and his eyes darkened.

"Why are you here?"

"Where's the prince? Why isn't he here?"

Kangxi's voice was low and suppressed, revealing his unconcealable anger.

He had rushed over upon hearing the news, and having witnessed with his own eyes the death of his young son, he was already heartbroken.

He felt relieved when he saw all his sons caring for his seriously ill brother.

However, when he looked around, he did not see the figure of the prince he valued most.

A nameless fire suddenly ignited, and a cold light flashed in Kangxi's eyes.

Looking at his sons kneeling in front of him, he lost all mood.

Just when Yinxiang was about to explain, Yinzhi stood up.

"Khan Ama, my son hasn't seen the second son either."

"Just now, my son heard that Eighteenth Brother was not doing well, so he rushed over in a hurry."

"After arriving, I found that the thirteenth brother and the others were all there, but the second brother was not."

"My son feels that his second brother just doesn't care about his eighteenth brother, so he doesn't care about his eighteenth brother's condition at all."

"My second brother is the crown prince, and he has always been arrogant and looked down on his younger brothers."

"It's very possible that he himself doesn't want to come."

Kangxi's face was even more gloomy at this time.

"Okay, shut up!"

"Eighteen just passed away, and you're already trying to flatter the Crown Prince in front of me!"

"Is there any brother like you?!"

He did not criticize Yinzhen's words, but only scolded him for making such provocative remarks at this time.

But he clenched his hands into fists on his knees, his nails digging deep into his palms, but he didn't feel any pain at all.

At this moment, he was extremely dissatisfied and disappointed with the prince.

There is also a little bit of dark speculation and suspicion in an inconspicuous corner of my heart, which seems to be confirmed with excitement and pride as expected.

(The prince has grown up and is indeed different.)

(No longer the good brother of the other princes, my good son!)

The Crown Prince has changed. Now that he has become powerful, he only cares about power and status, and the desire to compete with me. He no longer has me as his father and his other brothers. He is no longer the outstanding Crown Prince he once was.

(How can such a prince take over the Qing Dynasty and power in my hands?)

(no!)

(The legacy of our ancestors cannot fall into the hands of such a prince.)

(The prince still needs to hone his skills.)

(Yes! The prince is not good enough.)

(I still need to sharpen it before I can feel at ease!)

With his mind racing, Kangxi tried his best to ignore the feeling of "bewitching" in his heart and deal with the matter at hand.

Now is not the time to vent your anger.

Seeing Khan Ama's face getting darker and darker, Yinxiang quickly said, "Khan Ama, it's not what my elder brother said."

"Second brother still cares a lot about Eighteenth Brother. Second brother..."

Kangxi looked at Yinxiang with a sharp and cold gaze.

"Okay Thirteen!"

"I know that you and the Crown Prince have always had a very good relationship."

"Eighteen just left at this time, you don't have to make excuses for him!"

Fourteenth Yinzhen also anxiously followed Thirteenth and said, "Khan Ama, what Thirteenth Brother said is true."

"Second brother really does care about Eighteenth Brother."

Kangxi glared at Yinzhen.

"You shut up too!"

"As for the Crown Prince, I will naturally investigate personally."

Yinxiang and Yinzhen looked at each other and sighed together.

[It’s just as my second brother thought.]

Thinking about the care of the unconscious concubine Wang, and the funeral arrangements for the young son, they also had to be arranged in a timely manner.

Kangxi suppressed the anger and grief in his heart, turned around and looked at Concubine Wang who was fainted on the couch, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

"Liang Jiugong, arrange for someone to bring Concubine Wang back to her tent, then have the imperial physician diagnose her and have her entourage take good care of her."

"Also, the Eighteenth Prince's funeral arrangements must be properly arranged without any negligence."

Liang Jiugong responded repeatedly: "Yes, I obey your order."

Kangxi then stood up and said sternly before leaving: "Then call that rebellious prince to my tent!"

Then he looked at the brothers in the tent.

"And you, too!"

Kangxi swept his cold eyes over everyone, and the anger on his face made the brothers tremble in their hearts.

Even Yinzhen, who was originally waiting to watch the show, was afraid of Khan Ama at this time, worried that he would be implicated.

There were also the brothers Yinyu and Yinlu, who originally wanted to explain a few words on behalf of their second brother, but they temporarily swallowed their words because of the low pressure around Khan Ama.

I just have to wait a while until I get to the imperial tent and see my second brother before speaking for him.

After all, it was not just Khan Ama who was angry at this time. His eighteenth brother had just left, and his mother had fainted from excessive grief. This was not a good place to talk.

Kangxi walked in front with big strides, and his brothers followed behind with serious expressions.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Kangxi lifted the door curtain, he saw Yinreng coming.

"Your son greets Khan Ama."

Kangxi asked coldly, "Why is the prince here?"

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Khan Ama's tone, Yinreng lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in them.

"I heard that my eighteenth brother was not feeling well, so I came here to check on him."

Kangxi said expressionlessly, "Your eighteenth brother has already left."

"The Crown Prince arrived too late and didn't get to see Yinzhi for the last time."

Yinreng paused and sighed, "It's my son who is late."

Kangxi stared at Yinreng for a while, but did not see any regret or sorrow on his face, and the anger in his heart grew even stronger.
