The Great Fujin's Child-Rearing Diary of Qing Dynasty Transmigration

He Zhuo, the youngest daughter of the Irgen Gioro family, was bestowed a marriage to the 'Eldest Prince' of Emperor Kangxi's lineage.

Her story is about diligently raising childre...

Grandmother enters the palace

Grandmother came out of Consort Hui's Chuxiu Palace, and was seen off by Prime Minister He Zhuo.

Because his grandmother still needed to express her gratitude to Consort Yi, Khoja couldn't go with her, so he went directly back to the Princes' Residence. He felt at ease leaving the children with Consort Hui.

Khoja was unaware that after she left, her mother-in-law, Consort Hui, had a discussion about her.

After Khoja's grandmother passed away, Consort Hui sighed, "No wonder the Irgen Gioro family has such a prosperous lineage, with each member being successful and the wife being virtuous for three generations."

Aunt Qiao said, "This servant observes with a cold eye that the First Princess Consort has some of the demeanor of the old lady of the Irgen Gioro family. She gave the Empress two grandsons and a granddaughter as soon as she entered the household. It is clear that she is a blessed woman."

Consort Hui was overjoyed to hear about her grandchildren, and a smug look appeared on her face. The Grand Consort had recently given her another grandson, which made Consort Rong very envious.

Nodding in agreement, she said, "That's right, they didn't even consider who chose them back then." Turning to another matter, she added, "Many of the young ladies in the Grand Consort's year were quite outstanding. Do you remember Lady Fucha?"

Aunt Qiao: "Your Majesty has a discerning eye. I remember that Your Majesty said that Lady Fucha is gentle and beautiful, quite talented, and seems to be a capable person. She will definitely be a good consort for the prince."

Aunt Qiao has served Consort Hui for a long time and doesn't act as timidly as a junior palace maid; only she dares to say that now. After all, even Lady Fucha...

well......

Consort Hui: "Yes, back then I favored the Fuca clan more. The Fuca clan is a prominent Manchu family. His father was a second-class imperial guard (rank 4), and his grandfather was the wing commander of the Shiqi Battalion (rank 3). The whole family was in the military, which would have been better for the eldest son's future development. I never expected that he was unlucky. He passed away two years after his marriage, without even leaving any offspring."

Consort Hui shook her head and clicked her tongue, looking regretful.

Aunt Qiao poured some tea for Consort Hui: "I heard that Consort Fucha's husband is the eldest grandson of Duke Yebushu. Last year, during the imperial concubine selection, his family sought a primary consort for their eldest grandson, and the Emperor married off Consort Fucha's cousin to him."

Yebushu was the fourth son of Emperor Taizong (Huang Taiji).

Consort Hui: "I heard that Lady Fucha's dowry was very generous, and now it has been given away to someone else for nothing."

"Qiao'er, what do you think of my daughter-in-law?"

Aunt Qiao's mind raced; it was hard to say.

In fact, even Aunt Qiao herself couldn't see through the First Princess Consort. If you said she was simple-minded, she had a firm grip on the Master's heart. If you said she was scheming, the First Princess Consort still had many things in the First Prince's residence being managed by the head nanny in the front courtyard. She didn't seize power, nor did she persecute the Master's children or concubines.

Qiao'er pondered for a moment and then said, "The First Princess is filial and respectful to the Empress, personally takes care of everything for the First Princess, the First Prince, and the Second Prince, and is also considerate to the Master."

Consort Hui shook her head: "I know all that you've said. The First Princess Consort is a filial daughter-in-law and good to the eldest son and children."

However, I feel that she is not quite independent. She has been married into the family for so long, but she has not yet grasped the power of managing the household. Many things are still being done by the head matron of the front courtyard.

Oh, and remember to give that head nanny a piece of your mind. The First Princess Consort is weak, but I'm not one to be trifled with.

Aunt Qiao lowered her eyes and curtsied, saying, "Yes."

Consort Hui: "What should I do, First Princess Consort? Not to mention the Third Prince's wife, she's not even as good as the Fourth Prince's wife. The Fourth Prince's wife was only 10 years old when she married the Fourth Prince, and now she's already taken over the power of managing the inner palace. I'm so worried for her."

Aunt Qiao: "The First Princess Consort is under the care of the Empress. Besides, the First Princess Consort is only 18 years old this year. She is still young. The Empress can teach her carefully."

"Old Lady Irgen should also thank me. If it weren't for my presence, I don't know what would have happened to my grandsons and the First Princess."
