Ultimately, the Hesheli family could only blame everything on Consort Xu Lejin, believing that she had prevented their women from becoming concubines or imperial consorts.
August 2nd
Princess Lingke was to marry into the Suochuoluo family. Princess Lingke was the eldest prince's younger sister, so the eldest prince was naturally the one who escorted her to the wedding. In addition, Emperor Kangxi also ordered Yinchu to study under the eldest prince and accompany him to the wedding.
After all, she was just a Heshuo princess. Although Princess Lingke had an elder brother and three older sisters, she did not have siblings who cultivated immortal arts in the heavens to accompany her, like Wuxiha before her.

Such a beauty, young and delicate, like a budding flower, would surely receive the Emperor's favor if she entered the palace.
Grand Minister Fei Yanggu was truly shrewd; he had quietly raised such a beautiful daughter, who was said to be proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing, and dancing.
Her stunning dance made her famous throughout the capital.
"Ulanara Yirou, write down her name for future use."
