After returning to the palace, he ordered Gao Feng to bring Juzi to the palace to raise her and designated Li Jiajing to take care of her.

When Li Jiajing saw Ah Huang in the emperor's palace, she wondered how the emperor knew Ah Huang.

Gao Feng explained that there were mice in the palace recently, and the emperor wanted Orange to catch the mice, so he designated Li Jiajing to make sure that Orange was well taken care of.

Orange is the name given to the cat by the emperor.

Li Jiajing was very happy. Having Orange around helped her relieve a lot of loneliness.

So he kept the oranges in her house.

Looking at the cat bed, Orange wagged his tail happily.

Now that Li Jiajing had a little extra money, she had asked the eunuch who was away to bring back some brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone. Li Jiajing took time to paint oranges.

Ever since Concubine Zhen caused trouble for Li Jiajing last time, she was scolded by the emperor and has been holding a grudge against Li Jiajing.

This time Qingyi found Concubine Zhen. Qingyi wanted to use Concubine Zhen to transfer Li Jiajing out of the palace, and preferably marry her off far away.

Zhenpin thought about it for a long time and finally agreed.

Concubine Zhen took the opportunity to suggest to the emperor that Li Jiajing was a Han woman after all, and was not suitable for the emperor's body. It would be better to marry her off and choose a northern woman to serve him.

Helian Cheng looked at her and said, "Princess Zhen is meddling too much. It just so happens that there's a Qingyi in the palace. She's older and her ancestors have made great contributions. Concubine Zhen will choose a family for her first."

Zhenpin's wish to marry Li Jiajing off was not fulfilled, so she thought it would be fine to marry Qingyi off, but it would not be appropriate for Qingyi to stay in the palace for too long.

So I agreed.

Get married?

Even though Li Jiajing is still young, Helian Cheng has never thought about marrying her off. Moreover, Helian Cheng plans to have the next emperor born from Li Jiajing.

Helian Cheng didn't have a good impression of the northern women, and he was afraid of forming an in-law relationship by choosing a southern woman. What's more, he didn't fancy these women, so he thought Li Jiajing was okay.

After thinking about it, he first asked Lin Da to check if Li Jiajing had any living relatives.

Qingyi's temperament is different from the one I remember from my grandmother. Could it be that after so many years, my grandmother has also changed?

By the way, let’s learn about the whole life of Qingyi and A’nai.
