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...
Along the way, Balinshi found her mother-in-law to be very gentle, speaking softly and slowly, completely different from Mongolian women. Most importantly, her mother-in-law was beautiful; standing together, no one could tell their ages, and her mother-in-law looked to be only in her early twenties.
He Zhuo briefly mentioned the taboos of the Empress Dowager and Consort Hui along the way, as a kind of reminder. The Empress Dowager and Consort Hui are certainly tolerant of their granddaughters-in-law and great-granddaughters-in-law, but if they break the taboos, it will inevitably leave a bad impression.
After bowing to each mountain peak, they received many gifts. The maids behind Balinshi were almost overflowing with them, so Hongyu instructed Liu Bajin to coordinate.
However, he didn't get to see the ultimate boss, Emperor Kangxi, as he was busy. He kowtowed outside the Qianqing Palace, Liang Jiugong presented the gifts, and then went back.
He Zhuo thought his wife was quite nice to get along with. She had a cheerful and generous personality, bright and spirited eyes, and good features. She had been in the capital for a year, so the rosy cheeks from the high altitude had long since disappeared. Although her skin wasn't very fair, it was still quite smooth.
He Zhuo could tell that Hong Yu was also satisfied; it's normal for a young man to admire someone.
After returning to the manor, he sent the two of them back to their own courtyards, and He Zhuo decided not to be a third wheel.
"My lord, a letter has arrived from the young master of the manor. It's urgent."
Yinzhi washed his hands and took the letter from Liu Bajin. He Zhuo also put down his chopsticks when he heard that there was an urgent letter.
Yinzhi's expression was not very good. Hezhuo took the letter from Yinzhi's hand and read it through quickly.
"Sir, let's go back first."
Yinzhi readily agreed, since it wouldn't look good to lose his temper in public.
However, as soon as I returned to my residence, I sensed that something was off about the atmosphere in the mansion. The servants were in a hurry and seemed tense and solemn.
This is the Jiangnan Textile Bureau. Emperor Kangxi stayed here on five of his six trips to the south, and his accompanying concubines and princes also stayed here.
Yinzhi and Hezhuo were the eldest prince and his wife, so naturally they lived with their father, the Emperor, in the Imperial Textile Bureau.
When Yinzhi and Zhuo returned, it was already dark, and they closed the door.
Yinzhi let loose and vented his anger.
"Utterly useless! They can't even take care of a three-year-old child, what good are they?!"
Although Yinzhi was cursing, Hezhuo knew that he still loved his youngest daughter very much.
Even though he always treated Nalan Shi with indifference.
Yinzhi was a strict father to his sons, but a loving father to his daughters, especially his youngest daughter, the Seventh Princess, whom he doted on.
Upon hearing that his youngest daughter had almost died, he was so shocked that he sat up straight in his chair and took the letter from Yinzhi's hand.
The children born to the two concubines in the Prince Zhi's mansion were both quite healthy and lively.
Hongyu's letter was quite frank; it said that the Seventh Princess was pale and short of breath, and was on the verge of death, which terrified her wet nurse.
It was only thanks to a quick-thinking eunuch in Consort Nalan's courtyard that the Seventh Princess's life was saved.
However, the imperial physician said that the Seventh Princess had asthma.
The only thing to do is to take good care of yourself; there is no cure. You should avoid strenuous exercise, such as horseback riding or brisk walking. You should also stay away from places with heavy smog. In addition, things like willow catkins and pollen in spring can trigger the symptoms.
This disease is chronic and most cases are incurable in modern times, let alone during the Kangxi era. Therefore, medication cannot cure it completely, it can only provide temporary relief. In the future, the Seventh Princess will become a fragile porcelain doll.
