This "ordinary child" refers to the official's own child.
His performance was outstanding but not outrageous, which was just right in Jia Yue's eyes.
Yinzhen was also very satisfied. His memory of the first birthday celebration was the scene of Hongzhou crying and making a fuss during his first birthday celebration. As Hongzhou grew older, he became more and more unruly.
Hongzhao was so clever, lively and well-behaved that Yinzhen already liked him quite a bit, and now his affection for him had grown even stronger.
Although Jia Yue's gaze was on Hong Zhao, it still extended to other people. Because of some favoritism, her gaze was mainly focused on Consort Xi and Consort Yu.
Then she noticed that when Consort Xi saw Hongzhao appear obediently, there was a moment of gloom in her eyes.
Consort Yu, on the other hand, behaved remarkably normally.
Jia Yue lowered her head. Even though she hadn't received the results of Chen Mama's investigation yet, she already knew what was going on.
After the wet nurse carried Hongzhao down, the first birthday celebration was not yet over, but the parts involving Hongzhao and Jiayue were basically finished.

Jia Yue frowned. To be honest, she also studied traditional Chinese medicine, and this kind of medicine should usually be detectable.
"Why didn't the people checking the wet nurse's food notice this?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, but this medicine is probably a secret remedy from the previous dynasty."
Jia Yue fell silent. The previous dynasty was a magical one.
As for the power struggles in the harem, Zhu Yuanzhang decreed that concubines without children should be buried alive with him.
The power struggles within his harem were not merely about wealth and status; everyone was fighting for survival. The threat of death failed to improve the medical skills of the Ming Dynasty's imperial physicians, but instead, all sorts of bizarre and miraculous secret medicines began to flourish.
Many recipes have been lost, but some have been preserved.
Colorless and odorless medicines are rare, but secret medicines that go unnoticed can indeed achieve unexpected results when used occasionally.
