The next day, Khoja saw Shumulu, and indeed she was a beautiful woman with fair skin and a lovely appearance.

All He Zhuo needed to prepare was the same gift he gave when Nalan entered the family.

Shumulu's gifts for the first meeting were quite numerous, as she had fourteen children in her household, seven of whom were born of the principal wife.

There are so many princesses in the backyard, all of whom need to be greeted; it cost a fortune.

When Yinzhi arrived, he had heard about his wife's "drowning her sorrows in alcohol" the day before. He glanced at Hezhuo several times in the main courtyard, but Hezhuo ignored him.

Think about how unlucky Princess Wang and Princess Gao were. After entering the Prince's Mansion, they were never "slept with". At first, it was because Yinzhi was unwilling. Later, because Xiao Zhenbao was betrothed, Yinzhi didn't even enter the inner courtyard. He just lived with his primary wife and occasionally went to see his secondary wife.

Now that Shumulushi has entered the house, it will be for another 9 days.

He Zhuo was unaware that because of yesterday's "affectionate gaze" and today's "absent-mindedness," he had incurred the wrath of Consort Shumulu.

He didn't care even though he knew.

He Zhuo has been busy with his daughter's wedding lately and has no time for anything else. If someone crosses his line, he might just kill them, resulting in a sudden death on their wedding night.

Others would only say that she was unlucky, after all, the image of the First Princess Consort as a good wife was already deeply rooted in people's hearts, and even the illegitimate sons and daughters in the mansion thought that He Zhuo was a good legitimate mother.

No, no, why has he been so violent lately? It doesn't match my usual state of mind.

He Zhuo calmed down and cultivated for two days, and finally discovered the problem. It turned out that his own emotions had stirred, which was why he felt strange at the wedding banquet of Yin Zhi's concubine. Fortunately, he discovered it in time; if it had turned into a demon in his heart, it would have been difficult to deal with.

Now that the problem has been discovered, it must be solved. He Zhuo is not one to cower in fear, especially since this is her rightful husband, who has not stolen or robbed anyone.

But this matter isn't urgent; let's deal with Xiao Zhenbao's situation first. Our daughter is getting married in a month, and Hongyu and the others are all clamoring to get married too. Although Hongyu is the eldest grandson, Kangxi treats him only so-so, rarely exchanging more than a few words with him.

However, since Hongyu was the heir apparent, he was allowed to submit memorials, so he wrote one, hoping to send his sister off to get married. Kangxi kept it in the archives and did not grant it.

Hongyu told his mother about it, and Hezhuo knew that it was probably hopeless, because Hongyu had been to Chuxiu Palace hoping to meet his grandfather, the Emperor, but Kangxi had not been to Chuxiu Palace recently.

He Zhuo thought about it and guessed that Kangxi was still considering political factors, because Hongyu was the eldest grandson of the emperor and the heir of the Prince of Zhi, so he would not let him go to escort the bride.

As the heir apparent, Hongyu can represent Prince Zhi in a certain sense, so from a political perspective, if his father isn't allowed to go, then you, the little brat, can't go either.

In the end, it was Hezhuo who sent Hongwei and Hongfang to plead with their grandfather, the Emperor. One was the second son of the legitimate wife, and the other was the third son. Their relationship was not significant, and it was estimated that Kangxi would agree.

Sure enough, after several requests, Emperor Kangxi agreed, probably moved by the children's innocent hearts.

He Zhuo also explained the key points and political considerations to Hong Yu, who seemed to be deep in thought.

Hongyu knew from a young age that he was his father's eldest son and his grandfather's eldest grandson. Because of this identity, he faced "nine deaths and one life" when he was young.

Haha, hahaha, all I can say is that He Zhuo's acting was so realistic back then, that's what his father and son, Yin Zhi, said.

Moreover, his mother had warned him not to easily get close to his grandfather, and he had followed her advice. His mother said that the closer he got to his grandfather, the more dangerous it would be for him.

When I was little, I thought the adult world was very complicated, but I obediently did all of these things because my mother said it concerned my life.

Cough cough, cough cough, children naturally gravitate towards their elders, and the emperor's bright yellow robes particularly attract a child's attention, so this is the only way to fool him, but it's not wrong, it's the truth.

Now Hongyu has come to understand his mother's good intentions. He Zhuo did not hide the reason why he gave Xiao Liu to Consort Hui to raise from Hongyu. He told him directly that it was to break his father and grandmother Consort Hui's ambition to seize the throne.
