Emperor Yongzheng looked at him with a mixture of relief and complex emotions; he was relieved that he had a long-term vision and had grown well.
The complicated part is that he thought of his mother...
Yongzheng wanted to say something but ultimately didn't.
"Have you seen the young ladies from those families? Which one do you like? I will bestow her upon you as my consort."
"...Your Majesty, I thank you! Either is fine, as long as the person is of upright character!"
"Alright, I'll arrange it for you! Do you want to call your mother back?"
"……good!"
Both father and son knew the truth.
Sherry sighed for days after receiving the news, and finally said goodbye to Blue Eyes and headed back!
The blue-eyed girl cried sadly. (???·????)
Sherry: Why did he leave crying instead of smiling?
System: The great demon is still the same great demon, the heartless great demon!
Sherry didn't quite understand, and she felt a little sad too. But the established facts couldn't be changed.
Blue Eyes waved to her from afar, and Sherry waved back.
She seemed to have learned a lot, yet it also seemed like she hadn't learned anything at all.
It doesn't matter, her goal is immortality!
As Sherry watched the red and white foxes grow old, she felt a pang of sadness and eventually placed them in the secret realm.
The two little ones were visibly energetic and lively.
Sherry was researching whether the two of them could cultivate.
Because the scent of pears was everywhere, they weren't so afraid and patrolled together peacefully...
On the night Shirley returned to Beijing, she saw the long-awaited Emperor Yongzheng.
Sherry greeted him with a soft, sweet smile.
The servants filed out and left. After they left, Yinzhen carried her into the bathtub and scrubbed her skin until it was red.
Sherry: ...The last time someone rubbed me like this was during the Heavenly Tribulation!
Amidst the splashing water, in the hazy light and shadow, entangled figures and murmurings...
As a result, Sherry didn't get out of bed for several days after returning home.
I couldn't help but ask him, "Are you this old and still so energetic? Or did you eat something you shouldn't have?"
Sherry hoped he would live a long life; she knew he was a good emperor, and hoped he wouldn't continue making elixirs.
Yinzhen remained silent, like an old ox burying its head in the fields; even Xue Li feared he would die from exhaustion.
"You heartless brat, huh? Are you not planning to come back?" Yinzhen leaned down and looked at her fiercely.
"No way, how could that be?!" Sherry's face was completely innocent.
"Is that foreign devil better than me?!" Yinzhen was still angry, so angry that even after thinking of so many ways to deal with her, he couldn't bring himself to do it in the end.
"You're nowhere near as good as me!" Sherry blinked her big eyes at him.
"Ha, you little liar, you're just sure I can't bear to part with you!"
Sherry wanted to chat with him for a bit more, but suddenly noticed that his eyes were red.
She felt a stirring in her heart, a longing she had felt for the little white fox she had seen years ago.
Sherry hugged him softly: "You've been having people watching me, and I just wanted to go against you. I never even thought of that in the first place..."
Yinzhen buried his head in her body, kissing and biting her.
Sherry whimpered softly with teary eyes, he couldn't bear to part with her again, and held her tightly, refusing to let go.
"Stay with me, okay? I'll finish the reforms and then take you out to play. Do you know how lonely I am?" Yinzhen gently stroked her eyebrows and eyes, then her chin and lips.
"Hmph, I only found one to relieve my boredom. You have so many concubines, what did I say to you?! It didn't affect your ability to have children after you met me, did it?!" Shirley said, pouting and turning her head away from him.
Yinzhen opened and closed his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just kept kissing her all over her body.
Half asleep, Shirley heard him murmur, "From now on, I'm all yours, okay? Don't look at anyone else!"
Sherry: This queen was asleep and didn't hear anything!
System: Great Demon, you don't need to worry about the inner demon tribulation at all. With your brain...
Sherry: Want the invincible whirlwind wheels? The kind that shoots sparks! *^_^*
System: Oops, I've fallen asleep!
Honghan ultimately chose a princess from the Shumulu clan. The girl had clear eyes and her own opinions, which Honghan liked very much.
When Yinzhen asked about Ulge Shen, the little girl had lofty ambitions. Yinzhen noticed that she had a similar personality and appearance to Shirley and felt very fond of her!
They also allocated personnel, funds, and supplies to support her in doing what she wanted.
This is the woman who later became the Queen of the Moon Kingdom!
The little girl occupied a lot of unclaimed land, so much so that when her uncles and elders saw her achievements, they felt that their own struggles were meaningless!
Ulger was so happy he almost cried out "Father!" but he swallowed it back down.
They gave Yinzhen an oil painting, which depicted him and his siblings, their mother, a red and a white fox, and a serious-looking man!
Yinzhen looked at the painting and tears welled up in his eyes...
During this period, the Qing Dynasty gradually strengthened its national power, attracting neighboring small countries to pay tribute.
Among them, a blue-eyed foreigner came to the Qing Dynasty to exchange ideas as a prince.
When he saw Honghan, who was there to greet him, he was stunned and teary-eyed. He knew he really had no chance.
The bearded messenger beside him couldn't hold him back.
Honghan narrowed his eyes, but still pulled him aside and told him to calm down and not to hurt his mother.
The foreigner nodded and cried, and finally took one last look at Sherry from afar before leaving.
In the 15th year of Yongzheng's reign (1738), Yongzheng abdicated and became the Retired Emperor. He directly adopted the twins of his tenth son, and then passed the throne to Honghan.
Hongshi had opinions but was also helpless. Whether it was his studies, martial arts, or the art of managing subordinates, he was far inferior!
Ultimately, he was defeated and withdrew from the struggle for the throne.
Other sickly individuals initially managed to recover, but later, due to various schemes and machinations, their health generally deteriorated!
