What does this mean? It means that Chen Yuwei can openly and legitimately possess certain investigative and decision-making powers.
Hurry back to the palace and get to work.
Twisting her way out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Chen Yuwei hurriedly returned to the Yikun Palace.
Chen Yuwei beckoned Xia He to write down a few names, then instructed, "Send messages to Yonghu and the other two, as well as to the people outside the palace, and thoroughly investigate the people on the list I wrote down."
They are all talented young men from the Jiangnan region, and also the emperor's ideal sons-in-law.
Chen Yuwei is not yet clear on who to choose, but once she checks through the list of people in her hand, she will have a plan for the candidates.
"Make sure Yonghu and the other two pay attention; men understand men best."
Chen Yuwei was confined to the inner palace and couldn't go out much, but Yonghu, Yongkun, and Yonghong had the opportunity to run outside the palace all day long.
Outside the palace, there are many people and many eyes, but fewer people are watching. It is much easier and more comfortable to speak and act outside the palace than inside.
As the older brothers, Yonghu and his two siblings should always do their part for their younger siblings.
Chen Yuwei confidently handed the matter over to several older children, while she obediently stayed in the palace to await news.
Occasionally, Chen Yuwei would invite He Zhuo and Fu Ling'a over, and the three of them would get together to analyze the list.
It was also because Chen Yuwei raised them rather roughly that Khoja and Fulinga were completely unlike the shy and timid princesses of the Qing Dynasty; each of them acted with great generosity.
Isn't it just about choosing a decent consort for yourself? That's easy.
“Mother, I like gentle and easy-going people. Look, this one is quite nice.”
My third brother told me that this person usually enjoys dabbling in poetry and painting.
He Zhuo pointed excitedly at one of the people on the list. She was sitting on a tatami mat, wearing a pink vest, and her hair was simply combed into two buns.
"What good is elegance, Mother? I prefer someone with a more masculine spirit."
Look, both Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother said that these two are highly skilled in martial arts and well-versed in military strategy.
Hehe, if my daughter marries into that family, who knows, she might be a perfect match for her husband, creating a beautiful love story.
As people get older, their temperament and disposition undergo subtle changes.
Even though Khoja and Fulina are twins, they still have their own distinct characteristics.
For example, Khoja currently prefers men with a more artistic temperament, while Fulinga has always admired men with a strong military presence.
This difference manifests itself in the selection of imperial sons-in-law, where there are diametrically opposed standards.
Just like now, He Zhuo is constantly trying to learn the artsy style, while Fu Ling'a keeps emphasizing the military attributes she likes.
Neither side was wrong, but in Chen Yuwei's view, this was simply acting on personal preference, an absolute deviation from the norm.
"You two stop messing around and see what happens to these people first."
If you can accept it, we can continue the discussion; if you can't, then forget it.
There are plenty of candidates on the left and right, and another batch coming up later. This is the first time your Emperor has been so generous to you all; you should cherish this opportunity.”
Chen Yuwei spoke earnestly, mainly because He Zhuo and Fu Ling'a acted too recklessly.
They only have a three-minute attention span, no matter what they do, and Chen Yuwei is afraid that their chosen candidates will be the same.
If her daughter can't make ends meet and files for divorce, Chen Yuwei isn't worried about her daughter being taken advantage of, but she's afraid the subsequent handling of the situation might be inadequate.
Tsk
Believe it or not, if Khoja and Fuling'a dare to file for divorce, Hongli can easily find them new partners.
Once the frequency keeps up, Chen Yuwei can't even imagine how beautiful the scene would be.
"This concerns your own life's most important matters; don't treat them like a game."
Chen Yuwei rubbed her temples, thinking that she should find an opportunity to ask Hongli to help her make a decision.
Despite his unreliability, this person is quite good at judging people.
Perhaps it's because men understand men. Hongli was an emperor for so many years and dealt with the sperm of those people in the court all the time.
What kind of man haven't I seen?
Hongli could see through the hidden thoughts of the young people in just a few glances.
However, Hongli is only one part of the process; Chen Yuwei still relies on the system.
He Zhuo and Fu Ling'a glanced at their mother, who looked a little sleepy, and then smiled and moved closer to Chen Yuwei, starting to act coquettishly.
"Mother!" "Mother!"
These were beautiful young women, in the prime of their lives, and even with her hardened heart, Chen Yuwei couldn't bear to say anything to them.
Hezhuo leaned on Chen Yuwei's shoulder and said, "Mother, how could I not know how important this matter is? Rather than leaving the palace to get married, I would prefer to stay in the palace and keep you company for a long time."
Fu Ling'a leaned against the other side and continued after He Zhuo finished speaking, "My daughter also thinks that rather than marrying those lousy men she doesn't know well, she would rather live happily in the palace."
It would be so much better to stay in the palace. She was a princess of noble birth, her mother was a powerful imperial concubine, and her father favored both of them.
If she were to get married, she would not only have to serve her in-laws, but also have to get along with her husband. Even if she were a princess, she would not have a very happy life.
Don't think that the two of them didn't know that Princess Hejing had lived in Khorchin for more than a year, and she often complained about the Mongols in her daily conversations and actions.
Although He Zhuo and Fu Ling'a did not have a good relationship with He Jing, He Jing's temper and personality became much more restrained after she got married, at least she was not as sharp-tongued as before.
These days, when the three of them meet, they'll stop and chat.
Of course, the gossip wasn't pleasant either, since there was still competition between them.
There is only one emperor, and they all want to be the most favored princess, so they are bound to dislike each other. It can only be said that compared to the princes, the princesses are not too much of a threat, which is why they can barely coexist harmoniously.
