1. Kangxi's Harem: ...
Given Yinzhen's workaholic nature and the fact that he is still in mourning, she doesn't need to worry about any concubines getting pregnant and causing another plot to frame him for a while.
Meanwhile, in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Su Peisheng entered and interrupted Yinzhen, who was processing memorials.
"Your Majesty, Granny Wuya from Shou Kang Palace has brought some soup."
"Let Granny Wuya in."
After Wuya, the old woman, came in, bowed to Yinzhen, and put down the food box, she said, "Her Majesty the Empress Dowager heard that Your Majesty only sleeps for two hours a day and is very worried. She specially sent me to bring you some tonics. Her Majesty the Empress Dowager said that no matter what Your Majesty wants to do, you must have a good body."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I understand and I will be careful."
While Yinzhen was happy to see the Empress Dowager's concern, he also felt that it was not real.
Back when the Empress Dowager was still Consort De, she always favored the Fourteenth Prince. He and the Fourteenth Prince were born of the same mother, so he was not unaware of his mother's favoritism.
Things have only gotten a little better in the last two years, and they've started to favor him.
He enjoyed this feeling, but he always felt a bit dazed. However, the relationship between the mother and son was still quite good.
After Yinzhen finished his soup, Wuya left. Yinzhen put down his pen and then called out, "Su Peisheng, prepare the carriage for Chuxiu Palace and go see Consort Jing."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Chuxiu Palace.
"His Majesty has arrived."
Upon hearing the sound, Jia Yue and the palace servants in the room were startled, but the servants quickly showed joy. They served their mistress and naturally hoped that she would gain favor, so that they could also gain honor.
As for Jia Yue, she was puzzled.
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case! Emperor Yongzheng is a well-known workaholic in history. Even though it is said that he doted on Consort Nian, it was only relatively speaking. He did not lose his mind for the sake of women.
Back when I was still living in the Prince's mansion, I would only go into the backyard about ten days a month.
Excluding the two days the Fujin (the wife) spent, most of the remaining children belonged to Lady Nian, and only occasionally to other concubines and princesses. That's how the original owner's children came to be.
