She watched coldly as the child's breathing quickened uncontrollably when she heard her soft voice. She also watched as the child tried to hold back her tears, but they still flowed out from the trembling gaps.
She lowered her head and covered her heart, which seemed to be about to be crushed by a pair of huge hands. Her bright eyes did not show the slightest bit of abnormality as she endured it. However, there were traces of blood dripping from the gaps between her fingers and dripping onto the brocade blanket.
Trying hard to hold back the pain in her heart, Xianying looked at Yinzhen's tearful face and said through gritted teeth,""Zhen 'er, you should've heard what BenGong and Nanny Cui said just now. No matter how much you understood, you didn't miss the part about BenGong not being your birth mother.”
When Yinzhen heard Xianying repeat her hurtful words, he could no longer pretend to be asleep. He suddenly sat up from the bed, covered his ears, and murmured in a voice full of pain and fear,"I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it."
Xianying saw the little boy acting like this, and even lowered his voice to care about the Eighth Princess beside him. For a moment, she really couldn't bear to see him like this. However, when she thought of the cold-blooded and untrusting Yongzheng Emperor in history, Xianying put away her soft-hearted heart and reached out to remove Yinzhen's hand from her ear. She stared at Yinzhen coldly and said," I'm not your biological mother. The current Consort De, Wu Yashi, is. If you want to go back to her side, I can give you a chance to make a choice. However, I can't predict how you will live in the future." When she said this, a suffocating heartache made Xianying unable to say the rest of her words. She smiled bitterly and thought that if this was not considered cruel, she would be punished like this. She didn't know if she really did anything in the future, would the heavens directly destroy her.
Xianying finally caught her breath when she tasted the sweet taste of blood in her mouth. When she raised her head, she saw the little guy looking at her with an aggrieved and afraid expression. When she saw Xianying looking at him, she quickly avoided his gaze.
However, no matter how fast Little Yinzhen dodged, Xianying still saw the worry and fear in his eyes. She raised her hand and rubbed her aching chest, thinking to herself that if this was the limit of her ability to endure the pain quietly, she could do a lot of things.
After waiting for a long time, Xianying did not speak again. Yinzhen stole a glance at her from the corner of his eye, but it almost scared him. Xianying thought that she had endured the pain, and even her slightly pink lips were not much whiter than paper. Thinking that something would happen to Xianying, Little Yinzhen hurriedly shouted at the door to call for help.
Xianying, who was about to stop them, could only smile bitterly as Jing Yu and Xiang Yu entered the inner room. She raised her hand to get the two of them to stand up, not allowing them to ask any more questions. She said sternly,"It's Fourth Brother who was blinded by this slightly dark look, BenGong didn't feel any discomfort, but since you came in, first carry Eighth Gege to the side of the side hall, let the servant girl and nanny carefully look after her. If there's anything, hurry up and report it.”
Seeing the two of them obediently lowering their heads and leaving with Ge Ge in their arms, Xianying kept her eyes on them as they left the room. Xianying was pleased to see such obedient and quiet girls. Knowing her identity, she could not ask anyone to advise and question them. It seemed that the two of them could stay.
Looking around the room, Xianying saw that there were only the two of them left in the inner room. She raised her uninjured hand and touched Yinzhen's soft and curly hair. She smiled at Little Yinzhen, who did not agree with her instructions, and said,"Imperial Mother is really fine. BenGong still wants to see our little YinZhen marry the Di FuJin!”
If a three-year-old child in the modern world heard such teasing words, they would not be as shy as little Yinzhen. It was really unknown how the children in the palace were taught. If Yinzhen chose to keep her, she would have to find someone to learn a thing or two. Even if it was not entirely for Yinzhen, she still had eight concubines to educate.
With only the two of them in the hall, Little Yinzhen was obviously more relaxed than before, but the atmosphere did not ease for long. Thinking about what they had discussed earlier, the little guy's slightly red face instantly turned pale.
Xianying didn't really want to return her to someone else. Seeing that the time had come, she no longer maintained her previous attitude and continued,"Zhen 'er, you might not fully understand what BenGong told Nanny Cui about the emperor's thoughts, but what HuangE Niang wants to tell you is that if you choose to stay, you will love Sinjoro. Yinzhen is bengong's only son, and regardless of whether you are bengong's biological son, as long as bengong has a child with your name on the jade archive, the entire royal family will only acknowledge you as bengong's Tongjia Xianying's child.”
Whether it was his only son or the fact that the entire royal family would only acknowledge him as the child of the Empress, Yinzhen, who was still young, was greatly shaken. He looked up at Xianying's gentle smile and muttered,"Royal Mother."
After hearing the name clearly, Xianying noticed that she did not feel anything strange about the way he addressed her. She thought to herself that she had adapted too well to this identity. It turned out that men were more resilient than women.
She reached out and pulled him into her arms, gently stroking the soft curly hair that she liked. She remembered that she had never seen the standard money mouse tail and half-moon hair in the famous historical Qing Dynasty. Although she never thought that she was arrogant, she still could not accept the two classic hairstyles of the Qing Dynasty. However, she was full of curiosity and interest when she shaved the little guy's head in her arms.
Xianying tried to piece together the typical Qing Dynasty hair in her mind with the little guy in her arms. She laughed out loud and looked down at Little Yinzhen's questioning eyes. She quickly changed the topic and said,"Zhen 'er, after saying so much, Huangen Niang only has one goal, and that is to make you choose between bengong and your birth mother. Do you want to be completely my Tongjia clan's Xianying child, or go back and continue your mother-son relationship with Consort De Wu Yashi.”
Xianying looked at the panic on Little Yinzhen's face after hearing her words. She remembered how he had impulsively gone to find Kangxi today. It seemed that the first thing he had done when he agreed to stay was to make him change his impulsive personality and reveal his thoughts that were easily seen through.
"Royal Mother, will I really be your only child?”From eavesdropping, Yinzhen knew that not only did his mother have one son, but Gege also had two. Now that she was quite heavy, he did not know if she would lick another prince or Gege, which made Yinzhen very uneasy.
Hearing this, Xianying felt that children from ancient times and modern times were quite similar. They were afraid that having siblings would weaken their care and love for them. She reached out and gently scratched Little Yinzhen's nose. I really can't agree to it if you're the only child."
Seeing that Little Yinzhen's eyes had turned red after hearing her words, Xianying quickly continued, Shen 'er, how could you forget about the eighth princess? But if you're still worried, I can swear to you that I, Tong Jia's Xianying, will only have one son, Aisin Gioro Yinzhen."
Bright yellow clothes flashed past the unguarded door of the inner hall. Hearing the oath that " I, Tong Jia's Xianying, will only have one son, Aisin Gioro Yinzhen," Kang Xi's heart kept churning. But just as his heart softened, he remembered the words of his imperial grandmother and the Eighth Princess, who was diagnosed by the imperial doctor to have died young. He looked at the back hall of Jing Ren Palace where the candles were still burning and sighed deeply.
