Chapter 313 Kangxi's head was buzzing, and he almost thought he was an evil eunuch
Kangxi felt sorry for his son and hurried over to pat him on the back.
As a result, before he even stepped down from the steps, he was criticized again.
Is he some kind of devil on earth?
Because you hate your son's loyalty but can't bear to kill your own son, you want to kill someone else's daughter?
The Fifteenth Prince, who was actively proposing marriage, turned pale with fear when he dreamed of a harmonious couple, fearing that his father-in-law would be so cruel and send the girl he had fallen in love with to death.
The prince was the quickest to react. He patted Yinzhen on the back and said hesitantly, "It's rare for my fifteenth brother to meet a lady he likes, and he is so brave to ask for the emperor's favor. Khan Ama must make his wish come true. But..."
"Although the Guarjia clan is a well-known family, isn't the daughter of a clerk of a higher rank a bit inferior?"
Seeing that things were easing up, the Fifth Prince waved his hands and said, "Not low, not low. Isn't Fifth Sister-in-law's father also a Yuanwailang? Besides, my brother married a wife in order to live a good life with his wife. What does it have to do with the rank of my father-in-law?"
He has no intention of forming a clique for personal gain.
Now Khan Ama has also figured it out. The title of a prince depends entirely on his personal ability, without taking other factors into consideration.
Are powerful in-laws still useful?
Not at all.
If one is not careful, it may easily arouse the jealousy of the Khan and the Crown Prince.
It is better to give up and marry someone you like. The couple can live a happy and warm life together.
[Ah! It is said that the Aixinjueluo family is full of romantic people, such as Taizong's family with Hailanzhu, the late emperor with Dong Efei, the historical Yongzheng with Nian Guifei, and the current fifteenth brother with Guaerjia?]
Yinxuan was shocked. He never expected that his brother was actually a love-brained person.
But in such a feudal background of blind marriages, it is not easy to meet a girl you like.
As a younger brother, he has to lend a helping hand.
In order to help the fifteenth brother find a marriage, Yinzhen knelt down as well after he recovered and said, "The matter of marriage is like drinking water. No matter how good the other girls are, they are not what the fifteenth brother likes! In this case, why doesn't Khan Ama fulfill his wish?"
"When they live in harmony and have children around them, they will always be grateful to you, Khan Ama, for your help."
Yeah.
The fifteenth prince nodded repeatedly: "My son likes that Guaerjia family and wants to marry her as his legitimate wife. I hope Khan Ama will approve it."
He is also someone who understands the essence of striking while the iron is hot.
Kangxi had actually given him hints a long time ago, but didn’t he have to do the whole thing?
I can’t just let my silly son ask for something and expect my father, the emperor, to happily agree to it!
Therefore, he frowned and asked seriously, "Even if she is of humble origin, Father is only a clerk, and cannot help you much in the future?"
"In reply to Khan Ama, yes, my son is willing. As for the wife's family background..."
"That is not something my son can choose for his future wife, nor is it something my son values. Moreover, Khan Ama is the emperor, and my son is your son. He was born into the most noble family in the world, so marrying any lady from that family would not be a low grade."
What are the eight major Manchu surnames? Which one of them is not a slave in front of the Aixinjueluo family? ! Besides, his future wife is just a father of a lower position, but she is also from the Guarjia clan.
A serious and large family.
In order to successfully marry his beloved, the Fifteenth Prince, who had been lazy to death by Yinzhen, worked unprecedentedly hard and listed all the advantages of the Guaerjia family.
Kangxi's head was buzzing after hearing this, and he almost thought he was the evil eunuch.
Even if they don't kill people, they will force them to marry far away.
Otherwise, if he stayed in the capital, his son would give up his lofty ambitions, indulge in sentimental love, and become a useless person who only knew how to linger in the land of pleasure.
But the brat was steadfast and persistent, and the others tried their best to persuade him.
Thinking about the relationship and fertility of Guaerjia Shi and Shiwu Lian who gave birth to four sons and four daughters in the original historical line, he finally nodded: "In this case, I will grant your request today. However..."
"Let me be frank with you. That Guaerjia father is only a deputy minister. I will not hastily promote him because of you. I will also not allow you to marry a concubine with a prominent family background when you regret it in the future."
The former is for the country and the people, while the latter takes into account the relationship with court officials.
No matter how good a son is, as a father, I will never joke about the country and the world by indulging his willfulness.
The Fifteenth Prince nodded repeatedly upon hearing this: "Don't worry, Khan Ama, I made this decision after careful consideration and will not regret it easily."
"You'd better do what you say to me, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, my brothers, please bear witness that I will take the punishment myself and will never let Khan Ama suffer in the slightest." The Fifteenth Prince hurriedly made a solemn promise and sincerely thanked Kangxi for his help.
From then on, one of the main goals of the selection of concubines in the 49th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign was declared accomplished.
The candidate for the fifteenth prince's first wife has been decided.
According to Kangxi's intention, the marriage of the Sixteenth Prince should be arranged at the same time. Anyway, the Eighteenth Prince was also talking, saying that the Sixteenth Prince and his wife Guo Luoluo had a good relationship, and they had two sons and two daughters. However, the two sons were not raised, and one of the daughters died young.
But in the original historical line, there was no such minor auxiliary star as Yinzhen, nor was there cowpox.
The method of starvation was prevalent, and the child mortality rate in the palace was naturally very high.
Unlike now, when the cowpox treatment method was gradually becoming popular, it also refused to drink raw water and refused to starve. Common childhood diseases such as malaria and toad plague were also controlled, and the survival rate of children rose sharply.
Kangxi believed that the two legitimate sons who were not destined to be sixteen in history would be raised successfully this time.
But Yinxuan firmly disagreed.
He would never allow his dear sixteenth brother's marriage to be hastily arranged while he was still on the front line.
In order to prevent Kangxi from making random arrangements for him, he not only bribed the Empress Dowager heavily, but also secretly coordinated the testimony with his beautiful mother.
Even if she didn't dare to ask the emperor for anything, she should at least cover her face with a handkerchief, even pretend to cry, to sympathize with her son who was still on the front line. If she helped to set up the stage, he could cry, make a scene, or even hang himself.
Help Brother Sixteen to postpone his wedding for another year so that he can be present in person and have a certain degree of participation in his wedding.
Don’t wait until the wedding to meet your wife for the first time.
Seeing that Concubine Mi was hesitant, he quickly gave her a strong dose of medicine: "My son has long obtained his own marriage autonomy from Khan Ama, and the fifteenth brother has also found his ideal wife. Only the sixteenth brother is married blindly."
"Tsk tsk, it would be good if the couple could treat each other with respect. If they can't even save face, and the other two brothers have harmonious families, how uncomfortable would Sixteenth Brother feel in comparison?"
I have to say, he is good at giving examples.
With just this brief description, Concubine Mi felt so distressed. She threw all her fear and cowardice out of the window, and her eyes were filled with the faint light of a mother wolf protecting her cubs: "As a junior, you are not allowed to always disobey the emperor. As a younger brother, it is not appropriate for you to interfere in your brother's marriage. Let mother do it!"
