No wonder, even after Consort Min passed away, Yinxiang was still very much favored by Emperor Kangxi.
Sincere, passionate, and doting on his two younger sisters.
Indeed, princesses were not as valued as princes; most princesses in the Qing Dynasty were sent to serve as envoys to Mongolia.
Sherry thought of the two princesses and then arranged for someone to keep an eye on the nannies around the princesses.
If she remembered correctly, the maids around the princess were the invisible masters.
Historically, some princesses even had to be mindful of their nannies' attitudes if they wanted to get close to their husbands.
From childhood, they were used to being controlled by a nanny who could use a trivial matter as an imperial edict.
Although the emperor took into account the princesses' noble birth, he did not want them to suffer any injustice.
A "Princess Palace" was specially built for them, but the princesses' lives were not happy.
According to royal rules, a princess cannot live with her husband after marriage. If she wants to see her husband, she must get the consent of her governess and may need to bribe the governess to get the opportunity to meet him.
This situation led many princesses to prefer living as widows rather than being summoned to marry a prince consort, and some even died young due to depression.
As long as it's not like that prince consort who beat the princess to death, clearly slapping the imperial family in the face.
Who cares about those in positions of power?
Sherry thought of her two daughters.
The younger ones are alright; they're quite perceptive even at such a young age.
She's just a complete naive and innocent girl!
After thinking it over, Sherry began to invest heavily in training people.
Learn everything, whether it's cooking, embroidery, medicine, or martial arts.
Two days later, Shirley went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager.
They talked about the arrogant and domineering servants around the princesses.
The concubines looked grim, and the birth mothers of the princesses were extremely anxious.
Shirley and Consort Tong went to the Qianqing Palace together.
Emperor Kangxi's expression remained unchanged, but he frowned slightly when he saw the documents compiled by Shirley.
Sherry stared intently at him.
Kangxi swallowed back the words he had blurted out, "We'll discuss it later."
After thinking it over, I decided to send someone to investigate!
He also arranged for Liang Jiugong to reselect some nannies.
Sherry glanced at Consort Tong and said, "Then, what about the princesses who have married out of the country? Should we arrange for someone to go and check on them, to show that the Emperor values them?"
Consort Tong remained somewhat quiet, but still nodded in agreement.
She has no children, so she just needs to be herself.
I was happy to agree with what Sherry said.
Kangxi thought for a moment and glanced at Li Dequan in the corner.
Sherry is relieved!
He left leisurely.
When Yinxiang, who was on official business, received the news, he was astonished.
After learning more, I felt even more frightened.
One day, Shirley encountered a boy as slender as a pine tree on the palace road.
"Thank you for your trouble, sister-in-law! With you looking after my sisters, I feel much more at ease."
Yinxiang's eyes were full of gratitude.
"Then you're too optimistic, little brother. You're the older brother; you'll be worrying about this for the rest of your life!"
Sherry smiled sweetly, but in her heart she felt like she wasn't human, thinking about her uncle.
But then she thought, if she didn't have feelings for such a spirited and clean-cut young man, wouldn't she be even less human?
Sherry had clearly prepared herself mentally.
Yinxiang smiled adorably and shyly.
"Thank you so much for your help, sister-in-law!"
Sherry nodded and helped Yuebai leave.
Just as Yinxiang was about to leave, he suddenly turned back.
Looking up at the handkerchief on the ground, she seemed about to say something, but then swallowed her words as she watched that graceful figure disappear into the distance.
The young eunuch who was serving him tried to pick it up, but he stopped him with a stern shout.
Yinxiang squatted down and picked it up himself; the smooth, cool touch was accompanied by a refreshing fragrance.
He couldn't resist bringing his nose close to take a sniff.
He suddenly realized what was happening when he saw the little eunuch lower his head.
His face flushed and paled in turns.
Yinxiang strode forward, clutching the handkerchief tightly in his hand.
She noticed that all of Sydney's smiles were mischievous.
Next, it's time for a chance encounter.
Because of the princesses' affairs, Sherry went to Changchun Palace every few days.
He ran into Yinxiang a few times.
The young boy went from blushing to calming down in just a few days.
The handkerchief was returned through Princess Dunke.
There were other folk gifts, all of which little girls liked, which he said were for Urgong'e and Foerguochun.
Sherry accepted it with a smile.
He smiled and led the princesses in practicing martial arts to improve their health.
One by one, the fair-skinned young girls were tanned by Shirley.
However, his body is visibly much stronger.
Several concubines were not happy and subtly mentioned it.
Looking at them, Shirley suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "That's right, the empresses also summon the imperial physician every now and then, so they must be in poor health. They should learn from the princesses and start exercising."
Everyone: ...
Sherry spoke from the bottom of her heart, leaving the other concubines stunned.
"No need, my health is still fine!" Consort Hui hurriedly replied.
"I need to copy scriptures to pray for blessings—" Consort Rong hurriedly began.
"Uh... well, let's ask the imperial physician first!" Facing everyone's pleading gazes, Consort Tong spoke awkwardly.
System: Great Demon, you did this on purpose, didn't you?? Hahahaha...
