Before this, Fan Shuang was just a lowly maid, running errands for the Imperial Household Department all day long. She never got any good things, but always got the bad things done to her.
“Yes, the Princess Consort has a legitimate son,” she said, “but what use is Yonghuang, who merely holds the title of eldest son?”
Fucha Xuanru recalled the late emperor's era, when the Prince Zhi, who was at odds with the eldest son, ultimately ended up being imprisoned until his old age.
Will her Yonghuang also come to that end?
Fucha Xuanru felt her heart inexplicably contract and clench. She shook her head, feeling that she couldn't give up so easily. Her Yonghuang was much healthier than Yonglian, so why was he inferior to a sickly man?
"Fanshuang, go down and prepare the medicine for the prince. Remember, you must not ask someone else to do it."
After Fucha Xuanru finished speaking, she once again focused her gaze on Yonghuang.
Fan Shuang responded with a "yes" and then turned to leave.
While Yonghuang was busy at Qingzhu Courtyard, the people who left Qingzhu Courtyard also had many thoughts on their minds.
Kao Hung-shan's resistance to adopting a child is not that strong, because her physical condition makes it difficult for her to have children.
However, Zhou Zhenyue and Jin Xiangling felt uncomfortable. They all felt that since they could have children, instead of adopting other people's children and gambling on whether they could raise them properly, they should focus on themselves, take good care of their bodies, and get pregnant.
The fact that the prince is not currently at his residence has both advantages and disadvantages for everyone.
The downside is that everyone might end up with a few extra "sisters," wasting their chance to get pregnant after months of being alone at home.
The benefit is that everyone has the opportunity to focus on conditioning their bodies without worry.
If, after a few months, one can bring their body to its best condition, then it will have been worthwhile for the prince to spend several months in Jiangnan.
Because everyone has different ideas, the subsequent arrangements will also be different.
Chen Yuwei continued to rest and recuperate at Ruyi Residence. After stopping Su Jingtong from trying to get closer several times, no one came to disturb her.
After this process of raising him, it took Hongli a month longer than expected to rush back from Jiangnan in May.
As expected, Hongli indeed gained a concubine surnamed Sun. Moreover, this concubine was even worse off than Su Jingtong and Chen Yuwei. She was a proper Han Chinese, just like the concubines and ladies-in-waiting that the late emperor brought back from Jiangnan in his later years.
In other words, this person's potential is immediately apparent, and they pose no threat.
