She then recovered some of the points that had been taken from her account, and Chen Yuwei smiled brightly, "Alright, I won't hold it against you this time. Go have some fun."
System: ...Bad woman!
The system ran away and decided that no matter how Chen Yuwei called it in the future, it would not appear immediately.
Hmph! This woman must be shown the power of its system.
Chen Yuwei didn't care what the system said to her. She complained about the system all the time anyway. In any case, the relationship between the two was an inseparable, karmic entanglement, so let them stay together forever.
Feeling a bit tired, Chen Yuwei got up from the couch and leisurely went back to bed to lie down.
When Chen Yuwei opened her eyes again after sleeping, the light outside was no longer glaring.
"My lord, Eunuch Su from the Prince's side has come to deliver a message. The Prince will be coming again tonight."
Xia He looked over with delight, her eyes shining as if she were looking at a delicious meat bun.
Chen Yuwei told Xia He to calm down, "There will be many more opportunities for the Prince to come to Ruyi Residence in the future."
Your and Xia Yu's most important task is to guard Ruyi Residence well. Also, have them go and gather information from the small table and chair area regularly.
Xia He nodded in agreement, thinking to herself that her master was right. She realized that she was still too inexperienced and had forgotten the most important Ruyi Residence.
Having already envisioned the glorious scene of her mistress giving birth to her and being promoted to the rank of princess or concubine, Xia He helped Chen Yuwei to the dressing table to get ready, both of them looking very happy.
Chen Yuwei: ...There's no need to be so happy. Hongli isn't money.
Well, although Hongli is not silver, in some ways, Hongli is more useful than silver.
Because of Chen Yuwei's outstanding performance, Hongli liked her and thus came over three times in a row.
And every time they come over, they end up staying up very late.
In the end, Hongli couldn't hold on any longer (he couldn't relinquish his main political duties), so he stayed in the front courtyard for two more nights. Afterward, he rested for one day at the residence of Consort Fucha, one day at the residence of Consort Gao, and one day at the residence of Concubine Jin...
At the end of the month, Hongli remembered that there was a concubine named Su in the backyard whom he had not yet seen.
He ran over and put the person to sleep, and Hongli successfully completed his mission, once again making a graceful exit.
At this moment, Chen Yuwei already knew from the system's confirmation that she was pregnant.
This pregnancy was relatively short, less than half a month, and it would be another month before the pregnancy was exposed. But these events prove that Hongli's body and her medicine were effective.
"Looks like I can take advantage of these few years in the backyard to have a few more kids."
Chen Yuwei doesn't need to worry about the various health problems that pregnant women often develop. With the pills and the system as her support, she can even be said to be able to give birth without interruption.
"Your Highness, the Prince just sent Eunuch Su with a reward. Please take a look."
Xia He, carrying a tray, approached Chen Yuwei with a smile.
These days, Xia He's smile has never faded.
He laughs while working, he laughs while serving others, and he even laughs while sleeping.
Chen Yuwei thought Xia He's behavior was too exaggerated, little did she know that Xia He thought she was too conservative. You should know that the whole mansion knows that Ruyi Ju is favored, and Xia He receives a lot of flattery every time she goes out.
It was also because Xia He had a strong and resilient character that she was able to rise up.
Of course, Chen Yuwei would promptly notice and correct any slight sign that Xia He might show.
She thought to herself, "This is nothing. She's already getting carried away. What will happen when she enters the palace and becomes a lady? Wouldn't Xia He and the others be even more insane?"
Chen Yuwei was very confident that she would be favored and given a high position.
She could easily manipulate even Emperor Kangxi, so what about Hongli? He was only a tenth of Emperor Kangxi, a piece of cake.
"Take out this set of gold-inlaid jade headdress and wear it when you pay your respects."
With her beautiful fingers lightly tracing the thickened ledger, Chen Yuwei tapped the last line, then closed the ledger and handed it to Xia He.
Xia He nodded in agreement, "This servant understands."
“A couple of days ago, the Fujin sent over all the fabric for winter clothes. Pick out a few sets and take them to the embroidery workshop so they can finish making them as soon as possible.”
Chen Yuwei felt she didn't have enough clothes, and since Hongli was coming over today, she figured she could take some more.
Xia He completely obeyed Chen Yuwei's orders without any objection, and would even occasionally discuss accessory matching with her mistress.
Perhaps due to her years of experience caring for trees, Xia He has a great talent for color matching. Under her arrangement, Chen Yuwei believes that the wide and spacious cheongsam has gained a certain charm.
"Okay, do as you say. Go ahead, don't be too frugal."
Chen Yuwei was worried that Xia He would waste time trying to save money, so she made sure to give her a few more words of advice.
"Don't worry, Master, I understand."
She could distinguish between what was important and what was urgent. Her mistress wanted winter clothes because she wanted to leave a good impression on the prince and get him to visit Ruyi Residence more often. She understood this very well.
Chen Yuwei: ...No, you don't understand. She just felt it was cold and wanted to wear something warmer.
Regardless of Xia He's misunderstanding, the clothes sent to the embroiderer were completed in just seven days, totaling three sets.
With the jewelry that Hongli had sent her recently, Chen Yuwei felt that she was living a pretty good life as a concubine.
"Not only is she good-looking, but look at her clothes and appearance, even Princess Zhou is probably no match for her."
Gao Hongshan was delicate and frail, but she was sharp-eyed and quick-witted. Among the women in the inner courtyard, only the Fujin (wife of the emperor) could make her give way to them; none of the others had that ability.
Before the winter snow fell, everyone came to the main courtyard to pay their respects.
Before Chen Yuwei, who had changed into a new outfit, could even take off her cloak and sit down, she heard Gao Hongshan and Zhou Zhenyue using her as a raft to attack each other not far away.
