Just like in history, the child born to the Fujin was named Yonglian.
As the eldest grandson of Emperor Yongzheng and the eldest son of Hongli, Yonglian held an extremely prestigious position, and his grandfather and father placed high hopes on him.
Yonglian's full moon celebration was very grand, far exceeding the scale of his older brothers and sisters' celebrations.
This full moon celebration was not organized by the Fujin (Prince's wife) or by Hongli's personal nanny, but by Yunyi.
Because Hongli had instructed beforehand to make the event more grand, after all, Yonglian was the eldest son of the legitimate wife, and his full moon celebration should be distinguished from that of the eldest daughter of the legitimate wife and the eldest son of the concubine.
With his orders in place, Yunyi had no more worries and held an exceptionally grand full moon banquet, which stunned the ministers' wives who came to attend. When they learned that it was Princess Fucha who had organized it, they were even more shocked.
Hongli was very satisfied with this. Every man hopes for harmony among his wives and concubines, and he was not surprised that Princess Fucha could get along well with the Fujin.
To Hongli's surprise, Lady Fucha was able to go to great lengths to organize the full moon celebration for the second prince, which Hongli found somewhat unexpected.
With experience from the previous worlds, a small full moon banquet was not a difficult task for Yunyi.
The Second Prince's full moon celebration was a great success, and nothing happened during the event, which relieved Fucha Anrong, who had been secretly worried.
Fucha Anrong knew that the master valued the second prince highly, so this full moon celebration had to be held in a grand manner. She wanted the nanny to handle it, but the master entrusted it to her cousin.
She was worried that her cousin, who had never handled such a matter before, might make a mistake and be punished by the master. She was constantly on edge and secretly sent people to keep an eye on her so that they could lend a hand if anything went wrong.
Fortunately, everything was handled smoothly in the end, and nothing went wrong, which put Fucha Anrong's mind at ease.
By successfully hosting Yonglian's full moon banquet, Yunyi gained a good impression of being capable in Hongli's eyes, and for a period of time afterward, Yunyi was favored in the inner courtyard.
Because of what happened at the delivery room door last time, Jin harbored resentment towards Yunyi. Seeing how favored Yunyi was, she made many sarcastic remarks every time she paid her respects.
However, Yunyi always responded by ignoring what she didn't understand and never gave a direct answer. But it was this attitude that made Jin even angrier.
Yunyi couldn't help but laugh every time she saw Jin Shi get the short end of the stick. She was a typical person who was both bad at talking and loved to play around. She couldn't win an argument with others, but she loved to provoke them.
However, the reason why Yunyi dared to tease her like this was because she was indeed not cunning. Although she loved to bicker and be sarcastic to others, she was not malicious and would not resort to underhanded tactics.
Hongli didn't have many wives and concubines in his harem, and most of them were simple-minded, so they got along very well on a daily basis.
Yunyi was not a Fujin (a high-ranking official's wife), so she didn't need to manage the household. Every morning, she would go to the main courtyard to pay her respects, and after returning, she would play with the children or pass the time by reading, practicing calligraphy, and embroidering.
In the afternoon, he would go to the main courtyard to chat with the Fujin (wife of the deceased), and let the two children, Shu Ning and Yong Huang, play together. Now, with the addition of the newborn baby Yong Lian, the three of them could sometimes play together.
Of course, most of the time it was the older siblings, Shu Ning and Yong Huang, who were teasing their younger brother, Yong Lian.
Such peaceful days indeed passed quickly. Yunyi didn't feel like she had done anything special; a month had simply gone by.
August and September are the hottest months in the Forbidden City. Ice was already in the room, but Yunyi still felt unbearably hot and was listless.
She knew in her heart that, according to the timeline, the original owner of this body would give birth to the second princess next year, and then become depressed because of her daughter's early death, and eventually die young.
So judging from the timeline, she should already be pregnant by now, and it's normal for her body to have a stronger reaction to this kind of weather during pregnancy.
It's probably only been a month, and Yunyi can faintly feel a weak pulse when she takes her own pulse, but she's not sure.
Considering this situation, Yunyi didn't mention that she was pregnant.
After patiently waiting another month, the pulse became increasingly clear, and Yunyi was now truly certain that she was pregnant.
Whether it's because the pregnancy has stabilized or because the weather isn't so hot anymore, Yunyi can clearly feel that her body is much better and she doesn't feel as uncomfortable as before.
Without intending to hide it, Yunyi found a suitable opportunity to tell everyone about her pregnancy as soon as she confirmed the pulse.
Fucha Anrong's reward arrived the fastest. Upon learning that her cousin was pregnant, she was even happier than if she were pregnant herself. She quickly ordered Moyu to open the storeroom and send over many fine things.
After Moyu returned with the gifts, she had a chance to tease her mistress: "Madam, why are you so happy that Consort Fucha is pregnant? I think you're even happier than if you were pregnant yourself."
Faced with Mo Yu's teasing, Fucha Anrong laughed even more heartily: "You, you just know how to tease your master to make him happy."
"Sister Yunyi is pregnant, which is of course a great joy. She has already given birth to the master's eldest son. Whether it is a prince or a princess, I can suggest to the master that Sister Yunyi be promoted to a secondary consort. In this way, she can live a better life in the future."
Fucha Anrong genuinely cared about Yunyi's well-being. She had long thought that Yunyi could be promoted to a secondary consort, but since she and Yunyi were from the same clan, if she were to tell Hongli that Yunyi should be promoted to a secondary consort, it would inevitably cause gossip.
However, once Yunyi gives birth, given her many years of service in the household, her seniority, and the fact that she has given birth to two children, she is the most suitable candidate to be promoted to the position of secondary consort.
After all, none of the women in the inner courtyard had conceived yet. So, she, the Fujin, gave birth to a son and a daughter, and then there was Yunyi, who gave birth to the eldest prince and was pregnant with another child.
From this perspective, if not Jin Yunyi, then who else could be chosen? She is indeed the most suitable candidate, whether in terms of seniority, offspring, or family background.
Yunyi was unaware of Fucha Anrong's thoughts at the moment; she was focused on her pregnancy and preparing to give birth to her daughter.
On this day, Hongli came to the main courtyard to rest as usual. Fucha Anrong did not explain very clearly, but only vaguely mentioned the matter of the concubine.
Hongli is currently just a prince, with the position of a secondary consort. His consort just mentioned it, and he realized that he doesn't have a secondary consort yet.
The main reason was that Yongzheng hadn't designated a concubine to enter the household, so he temporarily forgot about it. Also, the concubines in the household didn't come from high-ranking families, so he didn't think about raising their ranks.
At this moment, Fucha Anrong mentioned it briefly, and Hongli took note of it, so he couldn't help but start thinking about the matter of a secondary consort.
