At the end of the same year, Sherry became pregnant!
Because of her pregnancy, the Fujin (wife of the emperor) did not attend the palace banquet, but Xue Li went with Yinzhen.
Yinzhen was worried about her, so he arranged for several maids who knew martial arts to serve her.
Interestingly, Consort De did not bestow any more women upon the Fujin (the wife of the deceased) because the Fujin was pregnant.
In January of the 39th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1700), the Fujin (wife of the emperor) gave birth to a daughter after a long and arduous ordeal.
If the princess hadn't fainted right after giving birth, she probably would have burst into tears on the spot.
The old woman Gui, who was serving her, looked distressed!
Yinzhen was also somewhat disappointed, after all, because of Kangxi, his brothers valued the distinction between嫡 (legitimate) and 庶 (illegitimate) children.
But there's never too many concubines!
Sydney ignored all that and focused on educating the children every day.
Perhaps due to enlightenment, the two little ones are very sensible and have good memories.
Shirley was so carefree that she let Yinzhen talk about classical Chinese all day long, reciting travelogues, the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and mathematics.
Consequently, Yinzhen would inevitably compare his two children who were close in age.
Sherry didn't get involved or let him comment!
Yinzhen seemed to have thought of something and swallowed his words.
After all, he himself suffered greatly from it, and he wasn't always this indifferent!
It's all because of the Emperor's words, "He's capricious"...
Yinzhen didn't think any further; he must be a good father!
Unsurprisingly, he visited Galo quite often.
The little girl was a bit afraid of him; she was rather shy.
It was only after the Third Princess was born that Yinzhen learned that his wife was somewhat disappointed, as she had not yet named her.
Yinzhen thought for a moment, then picked up his pen and wrote: Ning Kuoli Qike, meaning: harbinger of spring.
The Princess Consort was depressed for a long time because of the Third Princess.
It was still Granny Gui who used pears to provoke her, after all, if she looked haggard at the full moon banquet, wouldn't she just become a laughing stock?
For example, the Eighth Prince's wife and the Fourteenth Prince's wife were sisters-in-law.
Even Consort Li doesn't know how she'll make fun of her...
Sure enough, after all this, the princess was instantly invigorated when the basin of chicken blood was poured on her.
To be fair, she was considered a respectable wife among her sisters-in-law.
How could she allow herself to be laughed at by others? Especially by the Eighth Prince's wife!
A cocky firecracker!
With this in mind, Ulanara began taking medicine, taking care of her skin, and choosing jewelry and clothes to wear.
The maids serving her were all more energetic than the princess herself.
Shirley ignored all that; she was still pouring melodrama into her masterpiece!
What's even more outrageous is that some readers' letters were delivered to the bookstore, and when Sherry opened them, they were all filled with insults directed at her.
Some said she was talking nonsense, some complained that she updated too slowly, and others thought her writing was perverted...
Sherry laughs like a goose every time she looks at those letters!
When Yinzhen first heard her laugh so loudly, he was surprised. Xue Li regretted it to death. Sure enough, it's easy to lose vigilance when the environment is too comfortable!
She, the dignified Queen, actually made a fool of herself?!
What's even more amazing is that Yinzhen actually found her cute, genuine, unpretentious, and unconventional!
Sherry was relieved and occasionally chimed in, noting that Yinzhen's temperament was remarkably stable.
He smiled so calmly!
Sherry couldn't understand why he was so calm. After thinking about it for a long time without figuring it out, she simply skipped it!
On the day of the Third Princess's full moon celebration, the Eighth Prince's wife used her to provoke the Prince's wife in a cheeky way. The Prince's wife was somewhat displeased but still retorted!
After all, she had two daughters, and the Eighth Prince's wife had never been happy.
Sherry quietly remained a wallflower, and others thought she was sensible, but in reality, she was lost in her own world!
After all, she couldn't get along with the concubines in other households, and she was afraid of embarrassing her fourth master!
She stood there quietly, and people around her only said that she was petty!
Sherry doesn't mind, just leave her alone.
But the princess was traumatized.
Moreover, Consort De would reprimand her every now and then.
Within two days, the Fujin promoted a servant girl from the Ulanara household, named Dongmei, who had accompanied her in her dowry.
Dongmei was a pretty girl from a modest family, and Yinzhen went to see her once because of his wife's wishes.
Sherry didn't speak to Yinzhen for several days; after all, the formalities had to be followed.
How could she not be jealous? She absolutely had to be. She had even prepared a few lines of mournful poetry to recite, but when Yinzhen glanced at her sideways, she completely forgot them.
This won't do! She's already thought it through!
Sherry huffed and puffed as she began to recite from memory:
Tears wet my handkerchief, my dreams are shattered; in the deep of night, I hear a song in the front hall.
Her beauty hadn't faded, yet her favor had already ended; she leaned against the incense burner, sitting until dawn.
————
"But all I see is the laughter of the new bride; all I hear is the weeping of the old."
The spring water is clear when it flows out of the mountain, but becomes turbid when it leaves the mountain.
The maidservant returned from selling pearls and used vines to mend the thatched hut.
She picks flowers but doesn't adorn her hair; she gathers cypress branches, her hands overflowing with their weight.
————
"The Han emperor cherished A Jiao and kept her in a golden house."
Extreme favor can lead to waning affection, while deep jealousy can result in estrangement.
Nagato stood still, refusing to turn back even for a moment.
Rain cannot fall to the sky, and spilled water cannot be gathered up again.
Your feelings and my thoughts flowed in opposite directions.
The hibiscus flowers of yesteryear are now withered weeds.
"How long can one's favor with beauty last?"
————
Sherry was worried he wouldn't see it, so she placed one on the small table beside the tatami mat, one on the desk, and another on the bed.
Hey! You little punk, where do you think you're going to run to?!
As Xue Li carefully glanced at Yinzhen while holding her milk tea, Yinzhen couldn't help but touch his nose and chuckle silently under her gaze.
Then, following Xue Li's lead, I came across those poems one by one.
Yinzhen's first reaction was to laugh, but then he became angry!
While Shirley was still gazing intently at Yinzhen, he embraced and kissed her for a long while.
"Fei'er, you will never be Chen Ajiao!" Yinzhen's gaze was deep, his eyes filled with seriousness as he looked at her.
