Yonghu was lying on the tatami mat, his expression incredibly cute.
Where is Chen Yuwei?
Shocked by the bombshell her son had brought, she rubbed her ears and touched her forehead, making sure she hadn't misheard. Chen Yuwei was in a daze. Could it be that a huge windfall was really about to fall on the heads of their Yikun Palace? That shouldn't be the case.
The Emperor's statement indirectly acknowledged Yonghu's identity and showed the court officials that he favored Yonghu.
Although the Empress is pregnant, it is unknown whether it is a boy or a girl. At this time, it seems reasonable that the Emperor has an alternative plan.
That's utterly ridiculous!
Chen Yuwei shook her head, quickly banishing such a terrible thought from her mind.
Anyway, she didn't believe that Hongli was considering the possibility of letting Yonghu take over in the future.
The Manchus of the Qing Dynasty were arrogant and conceited, so how could they possibly look down on Yonghu's background and lineage?
Although Chen Yuwei also looked down on these worthless idiots for playing with such low-class things, it was the truth, and even in the late Qing Dynasty, not much had changed, because it was not something that an individual could change.
When the Manchus established the Qing Dynasty, many bloody incidents occurred between them and the Han Chinese.
Furthermore, the Han Chinese population was too large, and the Manchu nobles were worried about being caught off guard, so they dared not employ them, or if they did, it was mostly out of caution.
Why did Chen Yuwei enter the palace? Partly because the Jiangnan clans wanted to mend fences with the Manchus, and partly because the Manchu nobles wanted to ease tensions with the Jiangnan clans.
Both sides had this intention, which led to Chen Yuwei and Su Jingtong's move into the mansion.
But this also limits the future of Chen Yuwei and Su Jingtong.
They were no different from the hostages and princesses sent for marriage alliances in name only; they were all mascots for cooperation between two rival factions.
A mascot should have the self-awareness of a mascot and should never be too greedy.
Therefore, Chen Yuwei always took a life of eating, drinking, and having fun as her life principle. Even when educating her children, she didn't aim for that position. At most, she would try to put her efforts into the military direction.
But unexpectedly, while Chen Yuwei had no interest in anything, Hongli came up with so many ideas.
For the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, it would be truly necessary for Hongli to bring Yonghu along, with the Empress accompanying them.
Tsk
Chen Yuwei didn't even dare to imagine the scene; how much attention she would be receiving if she sat on the sidelines.
However, it seems that she cannot refuse this matter outright. As everyone knows, Hongli is too self-centered, and Chen Yuwei has neither the courage nor the confidence to refute him.
