"Your Highness is so cute! Your little face is fair with a rosy glow, so chubby..." Shirley couldn't resist and wanted to kiss her.
Seeing the fear and wariness in her eyes, he helplessly rubbed his face against her palm.
Consort Tong, no longer able to dwell on her sorrows, hurriedly let go of his hand and retreated.
"Consort Xian, what are you doing?"
"I miss my sister so much~" Shirley's cry of "sister" was so tender and sweet, it was almost nauseating.
Consort Tong's ears and neck were red at this moment.
"I'm perfectly fine, you, you may return to the palace!" Consort Tong stammered, her fists clenched tightly, looking pitiful.
"No way! Ever since you entered the palace, you've become so weak! I still remember how energetic you were when you first entered the palace! You were so adorable!"
Sherry's laughter grew sweeter as she spoke.
Consort Tong, clutching the quilt, flung away Xue Li's hand, panicked and unsure of what to do.
Seeing Shirley's aggrieved expression, he pretended to be calm and looked away, but what he was thinking about was what Shirley had just said.
Even Granny Fang, who was standing to the side, seemed to realize something.
After all, when Consort Tong first entered the palace, she was indeed spirited and arrogant...
In just a few years, she has not conceived any children, and her health has deteriorated significantly.
"I am fine, sister, you don't need to worry! I need to rest!"
Consort Tong thought of her beloved cousin and felt somewhat dejected.
Sherry left with great reluctance.
Consort Tong stared at Granny Fang, unsure of what to say.
She was certain that this Consort Xian was problematic!
Similarly, she was certain that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor would not tolerate her child.
Consort Tong had fallen asleep at some point.
Shirley leisurely went to see the little ones that her brother had been looking after.
Consort Tong, who had been bedridden for a long time, finally recovered.
She probably had a plan in mind, and she understood that the Tong family would enjoy wealth and honor, but there would be no princes.
The family hoped to register Yinqi under her name, but Consort Tong said nothing.
Sherry would occasionally lick her cheek to visit her, and sometimes hold her hand.
Consort Tong was probably afraid of her, so she rewarded her with some treasures and then made her stay in the palace to copy scriptures to pray for the Emperor's winter tour!
Sherry lazily agreed.
It's also troublesome, with the Empress Dowager and the Grand Empress Dowager above them.
Below them were Imperial Noble Consort Tong and Noble Consort Niu.
Since Sherry couldn't have a lover, she could only dream of the emperor's women.
Now, the emperor's women are avoiding her.
Shrimp, at her wit's end, reluctantly adopted two little birds...
Emperor Kangxi returned to Beijing at the end of May.
Interestingly, during this winter tour, Emperor Kangxi made a special trip to Consort Yi's residence.
But by now, Consort Yi had long since turned into a pile of dust!
The concubines were all eagerly awaiting the Emperor's return!
Shirley didn't notice anything else, but she did notice a dignified and imposing guard next to Kangxi.
Goodness, how come she didn't notice before?
It wasn't until Kangxi was chatting with that guard that Shirley realized it.
This is none other than the famous Casanova: Nalan Rongruo!
You know what, this person left pretty early!
She's two years younger than Sydney!
Sherry made up his mind; whether he was herding one sheep or a flock, it was all the same to him.
Then, he encouraged Chengzhen and Anqi to ask Kangxi to let him teach them how to ride horses.
Of course, he used the excuse of keeping his second brother company.
Emperor Kangxi felt a pang of sympathy for Yinzhi, who had lost his mother, and thus granted his request.
Sherry started watching the twins practice horseback riding every few days.
The most important thing is to see the handsome young man!
She originally came to see Nalan Rongruo, but when she arrived at the horse farm, she discovered...
She can fall in love with several people in a minute!
Each one is more beautiful than the last.
Sherry was a little resentful.
Men who have money keep flirting with beautiful women, so why can't she, who is a wealthy woman, do the same?
Alright, let's overthrow this dog emperor's rule as soon as possible!
Or perhaps she left the palace?!
Otherwise, by the time Emperor Kangxi abdicates in his seventies or eighties, she will be too old and frail to stand on her own.
The more Sherry thought about it, the more sense it made!
While Shirley observed the young guards' skills, Kangxi was so diligent in sowing seeds in the harem.
Consort Tong, Consort Niu, and Lady Wuya all became pregnant one after another.
Of course, Sherry will soon be a mother-in-law...
Chengze kept in mind his father's teachings and Shirley's advice.
He would wait for the primary wife to give birth before he would begin to favor the secondary primary wives and princesses.
So much so that the women in Chengze's harem were even more eager for her to get pregnant than the Grand Princess herself.
Sherry didn't bother to ask.
In the 22nd year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1683), Taiwan was successfully recovered.
He appointed Shi Lang as the admiral of the Fujian navy, leading the navy to attack Taiwan.
After Shi Lang successfully occupied Penghu, the Zheng regime in Taiwan was unable to resist, and Zheng Keshuang eventually surrendered with his troops, thus achieving the unification of Taiwan by the Qing Dynasty.
Meanwhile, it's another draft year!
The selection pool was broadened because, due to the Rebellion of the Three Feudatories, Kangxi appointed Han Chinese officials.
They're now considering selecting some Han concubines to enter the palace!
And Yinzhi is getting older, so it's time to choose a wife for him.
The talent show has begun in full swing.
Chengze had long ago cultivated the "slender horses" of Yangzhou, and they were also sent to the palace.
That year, Emperor Kangxi showed great favor to Consort Yang and Consort Wang, both of whom were from Han Dynasty.
Sydney watched the young flower buds with great interest.
But Emperor Kangxi wouldn't let it go, insisting that Lady Yang resembled her in her youth.
In a fit of anger, Shirley tormented Emperor Kangxi over and over again!
She's still alive! Why are you making this up?
Does he/she have a serious illness?
What's even more exciting is that Sherry unexpectedly discovers her two new pets.
One is alluring and charming, the other is pure and gentle.
