Furthermore, Shumulushi did not think that her daughter was inferior to her son; in her eyes, her daughter was good in every way.
At this moment, Shumulu had clearly chosen to selectively ignore her daughter's lazy nature.
When Alhatu heard his wife praising his daughter, he realized that what he had just said was indeed somewhat inappropriate, so he quickly said, "I misspoke. Cheng'er is just right, just right."
Tong Cheng'er was still dazed when she came out of Shumulu's courtyard. She didn't seem to have done anything, so how come she was the one who got the credit for her father's promotion?
According to my father, it seems that Emperor Kangxi intended to rectify the situation in Mongolia and felt that what she said made sense.
She reflected on what she had said and realized that she should stop thinking about it. Her father got the benefits, and she wasn't affected. That was good.
Then she continued her laid-back, unambitious life.
Tong Cheng'er went back and played with Bai Bai again.
Bai Bai seems to have grown up a bit, but she's still very cute, especially her soft, pink paw pads. They feel so good to touch, Tong Cheng'er is completely addicted to that feeling.
Bai Bai has now replaced storybooks in her heart and become her favorite.
Tong Cheng'er lived a carefree and leisurely life, which contrasted sharply with Kangxi's situation.
Kangxi truly listened to Tong Cheng'er's words, and the first thing he did upon returning was to order an investigation into the Imperial Household Department.
According to custom, princes and noblemen usually could only formally enter the court after their wedding. However, Yinzhen's case was somewhat unexpected, so Emperor Kangxi made a special exception and allowed the Third Prince and Yinzhen to enter the court for training before their wedding, since they were old enough.
Emperor Kangxi thought that the Imperial Household Department was mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the imperial family, so he entrusted the task of investigating the Imperial Household Department to his two sons.
When the Third Prince received this assignment, he felt a headache coming on. The Imperial Household Department! Was it easy to investigate?
As for Yinzhen, although he also felt it was difficult to investigate, he thought that if the Imperial Household Department didn't investigate, it would ultimately be the royal family who would suffer. As a member of the royal family, and having dreamed of being the emperor, he had a deep understanding of this, so he paid more attention to the matter of the Imperial Household Department.
Then Yinzhen started investigating. The Third Prince wanted to do nothing, but since Yinzhen was so serious, he couldn't just not put in any effort.
However, while they put in the effort, they inevitably became somewhat perfunctory in their work.
Emperor Kangxi took the matter of the Imperial Household Department quite seriously, so he secretly sent people to observe the behavior of his two sons, and then he couldn't help but frown at the behavior of the Third Prince.
Although he could understand that the Third Prince did not want to offend the Imperial Household Department, he was still somewhat disappointed in his son, who was a prince who was afraid to even be investigated by the Imperial Household Department.
The Imperial Household Department was essentially the royal family's stewardship system, responsible for the daily lives of the nobles living in the Forbidden City. Because they didn't pay attention to matters concerning their own quality of life, Kangxi's opinion of the Third Prince dropped significantly.
