Prince Yi of the First Rank, Yinxiang
Yinxiang was born on the first day of the tenth month of the twenty-fifth year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign. He was the sixteenth son of the Kangxi Emperor and was later named the thirteenth prince. His birth mother was a palace maid named Zhangjia. He was recommended by Consort Hesheli and served the Kangxi Emperor. He was initially granted the title of "Daying" and soon promoted to "Changzai".
Later, Lady Zhangjia became pregnant, died after giving birth, and was posthumously granted the title of Noble Lady.
Yinxiang was raised by Consort Tongjia, whose rank was second only to Xu Lejin in the imperial harem. Later, according to the "Secret Records of the Palace", there were unofficial historical rumors that Yinxiang's birth mother, Zhangjia, was a time traveler.
In August of the thirty-seventh year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, the thirteen-year-old Yinxiang was granted the title of Gushan Beizi. In the same year, his adoptive mother, Consort Que, chose a woman from the Tongjia clan, who was one year older than him, for him.
Consort Que's distant niece was a princess of Yinxiang.
In the imperial concubine selection of the fortieth year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, after several twists and turns, Lady Fuca was finally chosen as Yinxiang's primary consort.
Fucha was a direct descendant of the Fucha family of Shaji. Although Fucha was Ma Qi's illegitimate daughter, she was later registered under the name of the principal wife, so she could be considered half a legitimate daughter.
Yinxiang's adoptive mother was Consort Que in the palace, and Lady Fucha was the legitimate daughter of the Fucha family, so they were a good match.
The following year, Yinxiang married Lady Fuca.
Yinxiang and Lady Fuca had a deep and loving relationship. They had three sons and three daughters. In addition, Yinxiang also had a secondary consort, Lady Tongjia, and another secondary consort, Lady Yalarta.
Lady Tongjia was a niece of Consort Que from her maternal family. She was the first to serve Yinxiang and gave birth to three sons and one daughter, namely Yinxiang's first daughter, second daughter, third daughter, and fifth son.
In the first year of the Yonghe reign, Yinxiang was granted the title of Prince of the Second Rank, and Lady Tongjia was subsequently granted the title of Consort.
By the eighth year of the Yonghe reign, Yinxiang had thirteen children: six sons and seven daughters. Lady Fuca had three sons and three daughters, Lady Tongjia had three daughters and one son, and the other two sons and one daughter were born to other princesses and concubines.
In the tenth year of the Yonghe reign, Yinxiang was promoted to Prince Yi of the First Rank. In the same year, a princess named Yalarta from Yinxiang's household was invited to be made a secondary consort. Yalarta gave birth to four daughters and one son.
Looking at Yinxiang's household, there were a total of twenty children: six as his primary consort, Lady Fuca; four as secondary consorts, Lady Tongjia; and five as secondary consorts, Lady Yalarta.
The other princesses and concubines had only five children.
In other words, this indirectly tells the world that in Yinxiang's household, the primary consort, Lady Fuca, and the secondary consort, Lady Tongjia, were favored at the same time, followed by the secondary consort, Lady Yalarta. As for the other princesses and concubines, they only received a tiny bit of favor sporadically.
Gan'an Three Years
Yinxiang was seriously ill and bedridden. Before his death, Xu Lejin went to Yinxiang's residence and saw him one last time.
Only then did Yinxiang learn that the unofficial historical accounts claiming his birth mother, Lady Zhangjia, was a time traveler were true, and that she did not die from postpartum hemorrhage, but was given poisoned wine after childbirth.

Prince Xun of the First Rank, Yinzhen
After the 48th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, it would be more appropriate to call him Yinzhen.
He was the seventeenth son of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, and his birth order was fourteenth prince. His birth mother was Consort De, but not the historical Consort De of the Uya clan. Instead, she was Consort De of the Chen clan, who came from the Han Banner and was summoned to the palace in the twenty-second year of Kangxi's reign.
In the twenty-seventh year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Yinzhen was born in Yongshou Palace. His birth mother was Consort Chen, who was given the title of Noble Lady De. The following year, she was promoted to Consort De. In the thirty-eighth year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Consort De was further promoted to Imperial Concubine De.
As his birth mother's rank rose, Yinzhen became one of the princes of the time, despite his young age, whose status was not low. After all, in the palace, a mother's status rose with her son's, and a son's status rose with his mother's.
The son of a concubine naturally has a higher status than the son of a lower-ranking concubine.
Consort De, née Chen, came from a family of civil officials. Her father was the Left Censor-in-Chief, an official who rose through the ranks by his silver tongue and ability to incite hatred. Therefore, Consort De was influenced by this from a young age, and naturally developed considerable ambition.
Yinzhen was raised by Consort De, and over time, he naturally learned Consort De's ambition and became single-mindedly focused on taking that supreme position.
In the forty-sixth year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Consort De, after much deliberation among numerous noble ladies from Manchu and Mongol families, finally chose the eldest daughter of the prestigious Manchu family, the Wanyan clan, to be the wife of Yinzhen.
Before Wanyan married Yinzhen, Yinzhen already had a secondary consort, a princess, and concubines in his household, and he had seven children.
The Wanyan family wasn't stupid; they naturally knew what Consort De and Yinzhen were up to. However, they refused to buy into their schemes, pretending not to understand.
In the 48th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Consort De offended the emperor and was demoted to Consort Chen.
That same year, Yinzhen seemed to have suddenly become a different person. He was unsmiling, always had a cold face, and when he did his job, he was practically reckless.
In the 49th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, the fourth prince, Yinchu, was made crown prince, and at the same time, Yinzhen was granted the title of Dorobele. In just two years, Yinzhen rose from Dorobele to Doroxun Junwang.
If it weren't for Kangxi's sudden abdication in the fifty-first year of his reign, and his long conversation with Yinzhen in the Qianqing Palace for one or two hours before the abdication, Yinzhen might have quickly risen to a higher rank, becoming a Prince of the First Rank and the fastest-rising prince among Kangxi's sons.
No one knows what Yinzhen and Kangxi discussed behind closed doors in the Qianqing Palace. All that is known is that less than half a month later, Kangxi abdicated and took his concubines to the Changchun Garden Palace.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, Yinzhen continued to work tirelessly, but he was extremely respectful to the new emperor and became more composed, no longer greedy for merit or rash.
Ten years later, Emperor Kangxi died at the Changchun Garden Imperial Palace, and Emperor Yonghe immediately posthumously conferred upon Yinzhen the title of Prince Xun of the First Rank.
later
When Emperor Yonghe was nearly sixty years old, he abdicated in favor of Emperor Qian'an, Hongxu. Yinzhen also voluntarily resigned from his post and lived in the Xun Prince's Mansion to quietly enjoy his old age.
There was a strange phenomenon in Yinzhen's household: no more children were born after the 48th year of Kangxi's reign.
Consorts Shushu Gioro and Irgen Gioro, who were favored by Yinzhen, did not have any more children afterward, and the primary consort, Wanyan, was merely a figurehead.
In addition, the princesses and concubines were treated the same way.
Some unofficial historical accounts claim that after the 48th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, Yinzhen (the future Yongzheng Emperor) became abstinent from women. Others say that after the 48th year of Kangxi's reign, Yinzhen suffered a shock that caused him to lose his virility.
In fact, only Yinzhen himself knew the truth.
Forty-eight years after the Kangxi Emperor's death, he was no longer Yinzhen, but Yinzhen. In his previous life, he was the Yongzheng Emperor, Yinzhen, who died at the age of sixty after taking elixirs.
I opened my eyes and found myself in this strange yet familiar time and space.
It became Yinzhen,
Although he shares the same name as his half-brother, the Great General King, from his previous life, they are vastly different. They have different backgrounds, different mothers, and different appearances.
He probably overdosed on elixirs in his past life, so although he was reborn and took over this body, he lost his manhood.
Although he appears strong and healthy on the outside, he is all show and no substance on the inside. Under such circumstances, he can only pretend to be indifferent to women, because he is truly willing but unable to perform!
Yinzhen, also known as Yinzhen, lived a longer life in this lifetime, passing away peacefully in the eighteenth year of the Qian'an era.
On the road to the underworld, Yinzhen met Yinzhen, who had been waiting for him for many years, and the two were reincarnated together.
