"Fucha, this girl is quite nice!" Yunyi murmured softly.
Ruoqin smiled and said, "Master has excellent taste. This Princess Fucha is gentle and kind; she is a truly wonderful girl!"
"Oh!" Yunyi's interest was piqued by Ruoqin's words. "Tell me, what makes this Fucha family so outstanding?"
Thinking about what she had learned during this period of investigation, Ruoqin knew this Princess Fucha very well, she explained.
"Your Majesty, you may not know this, but during the time that Princess Fucha has been learning etiquette in the palace, she has performed exceptionally well in terms of interpersonal skills, manners, and manners. Even the palace's teaching assistants have praised her highly. Don't you think she is an outstanding young lady?"
"Yes, as you say, this Princess Fucha is indeed quite good." Yunyi nodded and made a note of the girl.
Turning to the next page, Yunyi vaguely remembered that Dong Eshi, the daughter of Commander Peng Chun, seemed to be the primary wife of the Third Prince. She had no intention of letting this girl marry Yinzhen, so she continued to turn the page.
Yunyi wasn't very satisfied with the other candidates; either their personalities were bad or their family backgrounds were unsuitable. After looking for a long time, she decided that the princess from the Fucha family was the best.
Closing the picture album, Yunyi prepared to call Yinzhen over to take a look herself. After all, it was for him to choose his own consort, so his opinion was the most important. As his mother, Yunyi could only offer her opinion and couldn't make the decision.
After school that day, Yinzhen came over to pay his respects and saw his mother smilingly pulling him along, handing him a picture album.
Thinking about the recent major events in the palace, he realized that this must be the maiden chosen by his mother.
"Look, these are some young ladies that your mother has chosen to be your consort. See if there are any you like. If so, your mother will inform your father."
As Yunyi spoke, she kept an eye on her son's expression, hoping to see him blush, but after she finished speaking, he remained calm.
Feeling somewhat discouraged, Yunyi couldn't help but wonder if all the princes in the palace were so precocious and not shy at all!
Putting aside her desire to watch the show, Yunyi looked at her son with a serious expression.
Yinzhen was well aware of his mother's ulterior motives, but he was not a simple child. Although his body was only fourteen years old, his soul was already decades old. He had a wife and concubines and had many children, so he naturally did not feel ashamed.
He opened the picture album and looked at it carefully, wondering who was in it.
He looked at the Hesheli clan, the Niohuru clan, the Fuca clan, and the Dong'e clan one by one, eliminating all the others. Like Yunyi, he also felt that the Fuca clan was the most suitable.
Seeing her son calmly choose the person she was also satisfied with, Yunyi nodded.
The mother and son were of one mind and had no disagreements, so they quickly chose a suitable candidate.
Since the topic of marriage had come up, Yinzhen waved for Aunt Ruoqin to leave and then spoke to his mother about his sixth sister's relationship with Fergun.
Upon hearing this, Yunyi felt both heartache and relief.
I feel sorry for this daughter who is so sensible, but I am also gratified by her understanding.
She sighed softly, "Buyechuk is just too sensible. He always thinks of others and never of himself."
"Mother, don't worry. I've already persuaded Sixth Sister. My cousin and Sixth Sister are in love with each other, so it's only right that we let them be together. Seventh Sister is my own sister, and I will take care of her marriage and find her a good family."
“You’ve been smart and resourceful since you were little. Now that you’ve brought it up, your mother will naturally trust you. Keep a close eye on Hutuling’a’s marriage. As for Buyechuk’s matter, your mother will speak to him. Your father won’t disagree.”
After everything was resolved, Yinzhen bid farewell to his mother and returned to his residence.
Yunyi didn't stop him. As usual, she gave him a few words of advice, such as to rest well, not to work too hard, and to take care of his health, before letting him leave.
On the way back, Yinzhen was somewhat dazed. There was no picture of Ulanara in the album, and he didn't know whether he hoped she was there or not.
In his previous life, Ulanara followed him, and although they weren't particularly happy, they treated each other with respect for decades.
After Honghui passed away, my relationship with her was only that of a master and his wife, not husband and wife.
She sighed silently to herself. It was probably for the best. Perhaps she would be better off not marrying him.
Tong Mansion outside the palace
Forgon entered the study and explained his purpose to his father: he wanted to marry his aunt's daughter, the Emperor's sixth princess.
The imperial concubine selection is about to begin. Because of his aunt's relationship with the emperor, he will surely be granted a marriage. Forgon knows that his father may refuse, so he plans to explain to his parents in advance so that he can decline the marriage and give himself a chance.
Ye Keshu was shocked. He hadn't expected his son to have such thoughts, and his first reaction was to refuse.
Even if a princess were to be married, it would have to be the seventh princess, the biological daughter of the Imperial Noble Consort. This sixth princess was born to a concubine, and her birth mother had passed away. Even if she were registered under the Imperial Noble Consort's name, her origins could not be changed.
The father and son were at an impasse due to their differing opinions, and Wanyan intervened to mediate.
Wanyan was the mother of Fergun and the principal wife of Yekeshu. She often entered the palace and had met this sixth princess. She was a gentle, quiet and virtuous girl.
Compared to the lively and adorable Seventh Princess, she actually preferred the Sixth Princess to be her daughter-in-law.
With Wanyan's efforts and after consulting with Yunyi, Yekeshu finally relented and agreed to Forgon's request.
After the selection process began, Ye Keshu asked his father, Tong Guowei, who was also Kangxi's uncle, to enter the palace to express the Tong family's wishes to request the selection of the sixth princess.
Emperor Kangxi had a good relationship with his maternal uncle's family. One was his daughter, registered under his cousin's name, and the other was a young master from the Tong family, who was his cousin's nephew. Emperor Kangxi was pleased with this and readily agreed.
