"Auntie is here!" Xue Li was a little surprised to see Consort Jing.
"Yes! I'm going back to the grasslands!" Consort Jing's words were like a thunderclap.
Sydney was mentally prepared for this.
After all, historically, this occurred around the 12th year of the Shunzhi Emperor's reign.
There is no clear record of this in historical materials.
However, according to the historical records of the Joseon Dynasty, the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty and the Annals of King Hyeonjong, the deposed queen was taken back to her Mongolian family by her father, Prince Joriktu, around 1656.
This indicates that the deposed empress left the palace at least in the thirteenth year of the Shunzhi reign or slightly earlier, and returned to the Khorchin Mongols.
If you calculate the time, the difference isn't that big!
"Then Auntie's fortunes have finally turned around! No matter how beautiful the cage is, it can't hold a gyrfalcon!"
Sherry smiled and congratulated Consort Jing.
Consort Jing was somewhat surprised.
"You're smarter than I thought! Let's not talk about that. I can take any letters you need to Abu Eji back with me!"
"Hmm, I do have a business idea I'd like to do with Auntie!" Sherry thought of her yarn.
After all, she had a child—yes, history says she returned to Mongolia while pregnant!
It is said that after the deposed empress returned to Mongolia, she was already pregnant and gave birth to a boy not long after.
The boy was raised by the deposed empress and was not known to the Qing court until he was fourteen years old.
After that, the specific details of the deposed empress's life, the time of her death, and the location of her burial all became historical mysteries.
So, whose child is it?!
Sherry didn't think about it any further. Who cares who it is? As long as it's her child, that's all that matters.
"Oh? What is it!" Consort Jing looked at Xue Li with great interest.
Sydney greeted Tuwa.
Tuwa used the materials that Sydney had previously prepared, including the booklet on the evolution of wool to yarn and the evolution of yarn to sweaters.
There are also sweaters, wool gloves, wool hats, and so on...
And the production of dairy products!
Consort Jing and Bo Wengkuo were completely dumbfounded!
"You can discuss the specific arrangements with the Empress Dowager. I think that cooperating with the Qing Dynasty should allow the herders to live a better life!"
After speaking, Sherry leaned against the bed.
Consort Jing's gaze suddenly became intense as she looked at Xue Li and couldn't help but reach out and rub her face.
"You're quite clever!"
"Egeqi, you're amazing! How did you know?" Bowengkuo was overjoyed.
Consort Jing was also somewhat curious.
"There's a wealth of knowledge in books! Reading more books is never a bad thing!" Sherry said, raising her head with a smug look on her face.
Bo Wengkuo couldn't help but stomp his foot, pouting in disbelief.
Consort Jing watched the two of them bickering with a smile on her face.
"To be honest, Bowengkuo, do you want to go back to the grasslands? If so, you can mention it to the Empress Dowager!"
Sherry asked earnestly.
After all, Emperor Shunzhi won't die anytime soon!
They still have to wait a few more years.
"No need!" Bo Wengkuo was a little unhappy, lowering his head and hugging Xue Li's arm.
"Don't worry about me! The Empress Dowager will protect me!" Sherry was too embarrassed to show off her lover to her.
Bowengkuo just shook her head; she didn't trust anyone.
Seeing that she didn't mean it, Sherry didn't bring it up again!
"Then why don't we let Auntie go back?" Shirley thought of the historical Consort Dao.
Consort Dao died in the fifteenth year of the Shunzhi reign (1658), when she was only a little over ten years old and had not yet reached the age of marriage.
Consort Jing looked at Xue Li with some surprise.
Finally, I shook her hand and said, "Okay, that's thoughtful of you! Leave it to me!"
After saying this, Consort Jing left!
Tus presented Sherry with the gift list that Consort Jing had given her.
Hmm, quite a lot of stuff!
Next came the Empress Dowager's frequent gifts.
Shunzhi also selected some!
Next comes the third-day bath.
Emperor Shunzhi was still choosing a name.
Of course, when asked about Wu Liangfu and Ao Bai, both of them said they were good.
Emperor Shunzhi directly appointed Lady Dong'e as his attendant.
Dong Eshi was dressed in a refined and elegant manner. It was only after she arrived that I learned she had helped Emperor Shunzhi decide on the names of his twins.
I felt slightly annoyed!
As a result, Shunzhi noticed her melancholy expression and, upon inquiring, learned that she was envious.
However, even Shunzhi had some doubts.
After all, he had been showering Dong Eshi with favor for most of the year!
There really is no sign of pregnancy in her belly.
His offspring were few.
Dong Eshi thought that Emperor Shunzhi would pity her.
Unexpectedly, by sheer chance, Shunzhi remembered to extend his favors to all his subjects.
On ordinary days, Lady Dong'e could indeed discuss worldly affairs with him and relieve his worries.
However, even though he was an emperor, he still had too few children!
That very day, Shunzhi began to linger in the harem. At first, Consort Dong'e thought it was just a coincidence and was only slightly jealous, not taking it seriously.
Unexpectedly, this became the norm in the future.
Previously, because of his favored status, the Empress Dowager had reprimanded Shunzhi before.
However, her mind was focused on Sherry, so even though Shunzhi didn't change his ways, she wasn't overly dissatisfied.
Shunzhi, however, was met with indifference from the Empress Dowager and the Empress.
For Dong Eshi, it was more of a habit.
Whenever the Empress Dowager is dissatisfied or Shirley makes a fuss, he can sing a different tune with even more confidence!
Seeing the two babies now stirred a rare bit of fatherly affection within me.
In the days that followed, Dong Eshi fell ill due to Shunzhi's change of heart.
The effects of the drugs her ex-husband had given her suddenly became apparent.
She looked sickly, like a frail and delicate Lin Daiyu.
Two weeks later, people from Mongolia arrived.
The banquet was organized with the help of Ag and the others.
I wonder how Consort Jing and the Empress Dowager discussed it.
Consort Jing can take five Mongolian concubines with her.
