"Why only a one-month lifespan?" Ituma Shush felt shocked.
This is an alternate history Qing Dynasty novel with a cheat, multiple children, no romantic pairing (CP), and a slower pace...
I suspected then that things might not be so simple.
The Emperor himself saw Hongxi one last time.
Granny Chun was a little confused. She whispered, "Your Majesty the Empress."
The Emperor merely made a princess from the Hesheli clan the primary consort of Prince Guo!
What is his relationship with the former Prince Li, Hongxi?
The Empress raised an eyebrow and said softly, "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has never given important positions to members of the Hesheli clan."
However, whether it was the Tongjia clan, the Fuca clan, the Niohuru clan, or the Uya clan, these Manchu surnames all had people who were highly valued by the emperor.
Well, to put it another way, the Hesheli clan was marginalized.
Granny Chun suddenly realized, and then she said cautiously, "Your Majesty, you, you mean..."
The Emperor's decision to make a princess from the Hesheli clan the primary consort of Prince Guo was a move to establish their influence.
"Yes, was it something that Prince Li, Hongxi, said to the Emperor before he passed away?"
The Empress's eyes flickered, and she said softly, "Yes, it is very likely that the Emperor's decision to employ them this time is due to the influence of the words spoken by the former Prince Li, Hongxi, before his death."
At the same time, she thought to herself: Fucha clan, Niohuru clan, Hesheli clan.
The Emperor's arrangements this time must be quite significant.
Yes, he brought up the Hesheli clan again, a major Manchu surname that had been almost forgotten.
It should be noted that the foundation of the Hesheli clan was no less than that of the Fuca and Niohuru clans.
...
First-class meritorious official, Minister of Justice Ali, was in his study.
One of them spoke up: "This time, the Emperor will surely give important positions to people from the Hesheli clan, won't he?"
At this moment, another person spoke up: "Don't just focus on Hesheli."
The Emperor has chosen a princess from the Bairin tribe of Mongolia as the primary consort for the Eighth Prince!
Upon hearing this, Aligun nodded and solemnly said, "The Seventh Prince's primary consort is a princess from our Niohuru clan."
The Eighth Prince's primary wife was a princess from the Bairin tribe of Mongolia.
The Ninth Prince, also known as Prince Guo, had a primary wife who was a princess from the prestigious Hesheli clan.
It seems our previous guess was correct.
He lowered his voice slightly and said, "His Majesty may really be paving the way for the Seventh Prince."
The two men who had just spoken understood what Aligun meant, and their expressions changed immediately.
Then, one of them solemnly said, "As the saying goes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly."
Therefore, it is highly likely that our guess is true.
However, we must never do anything unnecessary.
Otherwise, you might end up getting burned!
Everyone knows about the methods used by that person.
Everyone nodded solemnly upon hearing this.
...
In the residence of the Sixth Prince Hongzhou.
At this moment, Sixth Prince Hongzhou was stunned for a moment after hearing the servant's report.
Then, he whispered, "I understand. You may leave."
"Yes, this servant takes his leave."
The fact that the eighth prince married a Mongolian woman was not surprising.
Back in the Mulan Hunting Grounds, those Mongolian princes couldn't wait to make the eighth and ninth princes their sons-in-law.
Moreover, one of his eight brothers was bound to marry a Mongolian princess.
Well, I'm not including myself, my third brother Hongshi, and my fifth brother Hongli.
That must be either the eighth or the ninth son.
However, the ninth prince was later adopted out by the Emperor.
