Bao Liri's lips twitched even more violently. So he was overthinking things, huh?

Looking at the little adult-like baby, I always felt that although he was the fifth child and only three years old, neither Yinti nor Sunbuer were as bright as him.

"Yes, yes, Fifth Brother is right."

Not only Baoli Ri, but even the baby's mouth twitched a little.

Fortunately, this person was his older brother; if he were an enemy, it would have been far too easy for him to crush him.

No need to use your brain, just say a few words.

Baoli felt a pang of regret. Why wasn't Bao Bao his grandson? If he were, the position of leader would surely be his in the future.

However, judging from the Emperor's appearance, he probably wants to pass the throne to the baby. He might as well not take the position of leader.

“Mafa, Guoluo Mafa”.

When Beibei saw Baoli Ri, she ran over and hugged his leg, saying, "I want to practice riding and archery with Guo Luomafa, okay?"

Baoli loves Beibei's adorable and affectionate side. He would definitely take her with him on a normal day, but not today.

Firstly, he had been drinking, which would have weakened his reaction time, making it too dangerous to take the children riding and shooting.

Secondly, he has too many children, and he can't take care of them all by himself.

And most importantly, he couldn't bear to refuse these children; he absolutely couldn't do without Senegia.

"Beibei, Guo Luo's mother is tired and is resting now. Do you really want to wake her up?"

Feeling uneasy and wanting to come out and check, Esenjiya immediately pulled her leg back.

Very good, well done.

Beibei immediately shook her head: "No, let's go tomorrow then, okay?"

Hugging Baoli Ri's neck and acting cute, the rough man smiled happily.

"Alright, alright, I'll take you riding and archery tomorrow. Let's go early."

Having received a satisfactory answer, Beibei twisted her body and broke free from Baoli Ri's embrace, then joined the others in playing together again.

Baoli was very happy, which made the baby shake his head.

He thought to himself: He should take better care of Guo Luomafa in the future, he didn't even know he was being schemed against by that little girl.

He looked up and sighed: "They're really laughing happily."

Yin Fu reached out and tapped Bayalige's little head, and the latter stuck out his tongue before continuing to play.

She knew it was too late to go to the outskirts, but she was worried that Bao Liri might have other plans tomorrow and they wouldn't be able to find her, so she thought it would be best to settle things today.

Her Guo Luoma was a woman of her word; she would never go back on her promises.

Others didn't notice, but her brother did, which made her a little embarrassed.

It was no secret that Harigana's nephew had come to the capital. Not only the noble families of the capital, but even the Empress Dowager in the Cining Palace had heard about it.

"Su Ma, you said the Empress's nephew is already eight years old, and it won't be long before he's betrothed, right?"

Sumalagu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the Empress Dowager wanted to arrange a marriage between the Borjigit and Borchijin clans?

"Your Majesty, the child is only eight years old. It will take at least seven or eight years before we can arrange a marriage."

I heard that the Empress's mother said that girls should get married at eighteen, and boys should also get married at eighteen.

They say having a baby too early can harm your health, while having a baby too late will make things difficult.

Bumbutai never expected that Saenjiya would set such a rule; it was simply absurd.

She's only eight years old now. Even if you arrange a marriage two years in advance, there are still eight years to go. Isn't that nonsense?

Sumalagu shook her head inwardly. Whenever the Khorchin matter came up, the Empress Dowager would become like this.

Not to mention that Unduer's youngest daughter is only three years old, even if he found a girl of the same age, she might not be a good match for the Queen's nephew.

That person could be the son of a tribal chief or the empress's nephew. Even if the chief's daughter wasn't the wife of the chief, she could be the daughter of an ordinary official.

Moreover, the Empress Dowager's thoughts are somewhat unnecessary. She treated the Empress so badly before, and now she wants to arrange a marriage? What is she thinking?

Even if the Emperor agrees, the Empress would absolutely not agree.

Of course, she only thought these things out loud and would never say them aloud.

Because some of them are extremely rebellious.

Hopefully, the Empress Dowager can figure things out and won't get stuck in a rut again.

"Ah, I'm just thinking about it."

If it succeeds, that's great; if it doesn't, then so be it.

Sumalagu did not respond, but judging from the Empress Dowager's expression, she knew that she wanted to speak to the Emperor.

Since she had already made up her mind, she wouldn't try to persuade her anymore.

Besides, it's no use trying to persuade them.

Su Ma La Gu thought that the Empress Dowager would at least wait a month or two before asking the Emperor to discuss this matter, and that she would at least want to see if the Emperor was of good character.

Even if he is the Empress's own nephew, it cannot be guaranteed that he will be of good character or that he will be able to become the next leader.

As a result, the Empress Dowager summoned the Emperor after only half a month.

In the past two weeks, she only saw the child twice, and that was when the child came to pay his respects with the Empress Dowager.

"Xuan Ye, I just wanted to ask how your health is?"

Emperor Kangxi had just finished court when Su Ma La Gu summoned him to Cining Palace.

He was still wearing his court robes and hadn't changed them yet.

"Grandmother, I am feeling well. Physician Zhao said I have improved a lot and will be able to stop taking the medicinal diet soon."

"May the heavens protect all living beings; let's just leave it at that."

"I've worried my grandmother."

Bumbutai had a good plan, but she hesitated after seeing Kangxi.

After thinking it over, for the glory of Khorchin, she decided to give it a try.

She was just asking; she didn't say it had to be something else.

Thinking about it this way, I straightened my back a bit.

“Xuan Ye, I have seen the Empress’s nephew twice, and the child is truly good-looking and has a good personality.”

Kangxi instantly understood the Empress Dowager's thoughts. Before she could continue, he chuckled and said, "Yes, the Empress also likes this nephew very much."

"They're a bit young, though, so they say they need more experience."

When he said he was young, the Empress Dowager understood what he meant and simply didn't say anything more.

"That's true, the child is still young and needs to be trained properly."

The topic shifted: "Once you're fully recovered, give me a great-grandson. There hasn't been a royal heir born in the palace for three years."

After saying that, she realized it wasn't appropriate and quickly added, "The Empress's health has almost recovered. Once you're fully recovered, you can have another child."

Emperor Kangxi was both happy and sad.

The Empress Dowager was pleased that she had finally stopped pressuring him to find someone else and instead spoke of his beloved Jiaojiao.

Sadly, there was still a look of sympathy in her eyes.

I feel wronged, but I can't say anything.

I'll have to have a good talk with Harigana when I get back; he was questioned first thing this morning.
