Seeing that her true thoughts had been tricked out by her eldest nephew, Ma Jiayunhu decided not to hold back and told Yinyue everything.
For some reason, he always felt that his eldest nephew was very reliable, and he had a sense of trust in him. It was this self-confidence that made him tell everything.
He told himself that if he spoke up, his nephew might be able to help him achieve his wish.
When Yinzhi learned what had happened, he was somewhat surprised. It turned out that his uncle was unwilling to get married because he liked Wuya Yuyao, the younger sister of Consort De, who lived in his mother's palace.
In terms of social status, the Wuya family were bondservants under the Manchu Bordered Yellow Banner, while the Majia family were bondservants under the Manchu Plain Yellow Banner.
The Uya family members all held positions in the Imperial Household Department, while the Majia family members held official positions in the imperial court.
In the palace, Lady Uya was only Consort De, while her mother, Lady Magiya, was Noble Consort Rong.
Looking at it this way, the two families could actually arrange a marriage, but it would indeed be a case of the Uya family marrying above their station.
Yinzhi didn't really object to this matter, but he was afraid that his mother would be unhappy. After all, Consort De had once been a palace maid in Zhongcui Palace and later became his father's concubine. He didn't know what his mother's attitude towards Consort De was.
Yinzhi could only try to help with this matter, but if it really didn't work, there was nothing he could do.
Ma Jiayun was already very satisfied that his eldest nephew agreed to help. He didn't ask for anything more; he just wanted to give it one last try. Whether it worked out or not, he would accept it.
After finishing her duties for the day, Wuya Yuyao returned to her residence in the palace.
She is now a second-class tea-serving maid in Zhongcui Palace, and also the younger sister of Consort De, so Yunyi has allocated her a separate room so she doesn't have to share with other second-class maids.
Moving the pillow aside, Wuya Yuyao took out a half-finished purse from underneath and sighed inwardly.
We agreed to cut off contact, so why can't I forget him?
Thinking this through her mind, as if she had made up her mind, she picked up the scissors to cut off the purse, but hesitated when she was about to do so.
Torn between her inner conflict and her own conscience, Wuya Yuyao was unable to bring herself to do it.
After a long while, she finally put the purse back.
Although it is a semi-finished product, the pattern on it is already recognizable. If you look closely, you can see that it is embroidered with a bird or beast with its wings spread in a flying posture.
I just don't know what kind of animal this bird or beast is.
After returning to the palace, since Yinzhi was staying in the Prince's Residence and spent less time in Zhongcui Palace, he asked his younger sister, Fuerguochun, to help investigate Wuya Yuyao.
On the other hand, he also needed to think about how to tell his mother about this.
However, Folgochun was far too careless. She had only made a few moves when Su Mama, who was by Yunyi's side, discovered the clues.
During lunch, Yunyi deliberately kept her daughter behind and dismissed the other palace maids serving inside, then "interrogated" her daughter.
Then Yunyi learned that her younger brother actually liked Wuya Yuyao.
Well, although she had suspected it before, she was still inevitably surprised when she actually found out.
She learned from her daughter that her eldest son was unaware of her stance and was trying to figure out how to subtly bring it up with her.
On the one hand, she found it funny, and on the other hand, she was happy for her son's thoughtfulness. Yunyi found a time and told her son her thoughts directly.
She didn't object to this. She knew Wuya Yuyao's character; she was kind-hearted and somewhat naive. She hadn't experienced any setbacks in this life and had maintained her personality unchanged.
At the same time, she was also an artistic person, a rare example of a well-read girl from a humble background.
Her younger brother was able to pass the imperial examination, which meant he was very cultured. The two of them were a good match and loved each other, so Yunyi naturally wouldn't object to anything.
Wuya Yuyao is twenty-two years old this year, and she is a palace maid in her palace. It is possible for her to decide to let her leave the palace early.
However, one cannot make the decision to release a palace maid on one's own; one must first inform the concubines who manage palace affairs.
Yunyi found time to go to Chengqian Palace and report to Consort Tong, thus making the matter public.
Just as Yunyi was still worrying about how to tell Madam Ma about this, Emperor Kangxi learned of it.
He actually issued an imperial edict, betrothing Consort De's younger sister to Consort Rong's younger brother.
Yunyi was a little dumbfounded. Generally, only members of the royal family or high-ranking officials were qualified to be married by the emperor.
Although her younger brother held an official position, he was only a minor official in the Hanlin Academy, which was not significant. It was strange that he was able to receive an imperial decree of marriage from Emperor Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi also had his own considerations in this matter. He was currently ill and needed to pay more attention to his few children.
The eldest prince was the most prestigious among the princes, and his mother was a concubine second only to the Imperial Noble Consort Tongjia. He was also intelligent and studious, a promising talent.
Emperor Kangxi placed high hopes on his eldest son, and he was aware of the discord between Lady Magiya and Lady Uya.
His purpose is to connect Lady Ma Jia and Lady Wu Ya, and the First Prince and the Eighth Prince, through this marriage alliance.
He has other plans for the future.
It was precisely because of Kangxi's misunderstanding that this matter was accomplished so easily.
When the imperial edict reached Zhongcui Palace, everyone was stunned. They never expected that Wuya Yuyao could marry the younger brother of Consort Rong.
Everyone knows that Consort Rong's younger brother is an official in the Hanlin Academy. Putting aside the fact that Wuya Yuyao was able to establish a relationship with Consort Rong after marrying into the family.
From now on, she will no longer be a lowly palace maid, but an official's wife.
Having received the imperial decree of marriage, Wuya Yuyao was no longer a palace maid of Zhongcui Palace. Yunyi granted her special permission to return home to await her marriage.
However, since it was just a wedding for an ordinary official's family, there wasn't much to prepare. In addition, both the bride and groom were quite old at that time, so the wedding preparations were completed very quickly.
In September, Wuya Yuyao left the Wuya family and married into the Majia family, becoming Majia Yunhu's wife.
Because of their strong emotional foundation, the couple lived a blissful and loving life together after marriage.
By the time Yinzhi got married in November, Wuya Yuyao was already a month pregnant.
The two had a very good relationship and were in the prime of their youth, the best time to have children. It was normal for them to get pregnant so soon after getting married.
But this news made Madam Ma, who was eager to have a grandson, extremely happy.
Wuya Yuyao was living a very happy life. She had a loving husband, a harmonious mother-in-law, and was about to give birth to her precious child. Despite being pregnant, she looked radiant.
The eldest prince, Yinzhi, in the palace got married and was about to have a grandson. But then came the news that Consort Tong was pregnant.
