Uya really had no objection to this. She thought the eldest princess was a thoughtful person, and if she gave the wrong opinion, she might get blamed!
However, since the Empress Dowager had spoken, she naturally could not refuse: "Your Majesty, if you say so, I will certainly speak frankly and without reservation."
As for recommending candidates, let's leave it at that; the princess's marriage is none of the minister's wife's business.
Looking at the eldest princess who was bowing her head shyly, Yunrong smiled and teased, "Eldest princess, don't be shy. What kind of consort do you want? Tell your mother, the Empress Dowager, and she'll keep an eye out for you. There's no one else here, and your mother won't tell anyone else."
The eldest princess blushed and said, "I have no requests. I trust my mother's judgment."
Upon hearing this, Yunrong knew that although the eldest princess was not old, she was quite shrewd.
Having cunning in the palace isn't necessarily a bad thing.
The eldest princess chatted for a while, then took her leave.
Having achieved her goal, she naturally didn't linger any longer.
After the eldest princess left, the Empress Dowager sighed and said, "I was afraid that I would marry her off to Mongolia. I know that princesses of the Qing Dynasty would not have a good life in Mongolia. If I could, I would not have let her go to Mongolia.

Uya pretended not to hear this, and Yunrong understood the matter between the Empress Dowager and the eldest princess, and also knew why she had come here today.
Yunrong: "Your Majesty, please don't worry. The eldest princess is still young and may be having trouble thinking things through. Although the Qing Dynasty is prosperous, Mongolia is more comfortable. The eldest princess is just used to life in the Qing Dynasty and is afraid that she will not be able to adapt to life in Mongolia. That's why she is so anxious. It's just a child's mentality."
Upon hearing Yunrong's words, the Empress Dowager sighed and said, "The Empress understands Mongolia well, but unfortunately, some people don't see it!"
The Empress Dowager may seem like an old woman who doesn't care about anything, but she is very clear-headed! If a princess from the Qing Dynasty were to marry into the Qing Dynasty, she would certainly no longer suffer any grievances. Originally, she was thinking of finding a good Mongolian man for the eldest princess, but it turned out that she was just being presumptuous.
Although the eldest princess was not directly raised by her, she was involved in the eldest princess's growth process, but now it seems that the eldest princess may not be grateful.
