Consort Xi smiled and nodded.
Then, Consort Yu picked up her teacup and took a small sip.
At the same time, Consort Yu thought to herself: Actually, the Emperor has favored your Hongli for several years.
Everyone knows that!
Sigh, no matter what, my Hongzhou has absolutely no advantage!
Although his primary wife was also from the Ma Jia clan.
However, the Ma Jia clan had too many members, and the family of Hongzhou's primary wife consisted mostly of minor officials.
It is far inferior to the Majia clan, which specializes in producing high-ranking officials and important ministers.
There was also Hongshi's primary consort, who was also from the Guarjia clan.
However, his family was from a branch of the Guarjia clan, and they were quite different from the main branch.
On the contrary, your Hongli's primary consort is truly from one of the eight great Manchu clans.
Her grandfather was the Minister of Revenue when he was alive, a high-ranking official during the reign of Emperor Kangxi.
Her father, uncle, and other relatives all held important positions.
Her uncle, Ma Qi, was a particularly formidable figure.
Alas, when we were still in the Prince's residence, we had the same status.
However, after the Emperor ascended the throne, you were elevated to a higher rank than me because of your Niohuru clan lineage.
Both Consort Qi and I are of Han Chinese descent.
Her name, Hongshi, at least has the character "long" in it.
As for my son Hongzhou, he can only be the youngest son who grows up alongside Hongli.
Alas, in the end, he wasn't even a child anymore.
I disliked Consort Shu back then because her seventh son became the Emperor's youngest son.
Although Consort Shu was also a Manchu, at that time she was merely a concubine whose status was elevated by her son.
I had been hoping she would do badly, but who knew that Consort Shu was so wicked.
She gave birth to twins safely twice in a row, and later suffered a serious illness, but she pulled through.
Consort Yun and Consort Qi, on the contrary, did not survive.
...
Next, Consort Yu and Consort Xi chatted for a while about other topics.
Not long after, Consort Yu took her leave.
After seeing off Consort Yu, the smile on Consort Xi's lips vanished immediately.
Granny Tao understood her mistress.
Seeing this, she whispered to comfort her, "Your Majesty, you already have grandsons and granddaughters, why bother with a mere Niohuru princess!"
She's only just become the future primary consort of the Seventh Prince; our imperial grandsons and granddaughters are all of the Niohuru clan's bloodline.
Upon hearing this, Consort Xi's expression softened, and she said softly, "Granny Tao, you're right, it's all still early!"
At the same time, Consort Xi gritted her teeth and thought to herself: It's all Consort Shu's fault!
She gave birth to the seventh prince, Hongzhao, back then, which marked the beginning of the family line.
Later, not only Consort Yu and Consort Ning gave birth to a princess.
Even the Empress, that old woman, gave birth to a princess.
After the death of her eldest son, Honghui, the Empress had been struggling to stay alive.
Now things are better, thanks to the existence of the Seventh Princess, Alchuka.
Given that old woman's strong-willed nature, she would definitely continue to persevere for her daughter's sake.
As for Consort Shu, she gave birth to a prince.
She was incredibly lucky to conceive twins twice, and both times both pregnancies ended well for both mother and babies.
She originally thought that since she had given birth to so many children, the princes she gave birth to later would probably have poor health.
Or perhaps she, like Nian, will not be able to hold on.
Who knew that Consort Shu and her sons were still alive and well to this day?
Now, the Seventh Prince Hongzhao is even going to marry a noblewoman from the Niohuru clan, which is getting in his way.
Moreover, at that time, the emperor purged the harem several times for the sake of her several young princes.
The emperor's harem was already strictly regulated under the empress's management.
Later, when the Empress was pregnant with the seventh princess, Alchuka.
The Emperor and Empress, this couple, once again used forceful methods to reorganize the inner palace.
And what went wrong with the Imperial Household Department that time?
The Emperor thoroughly cleaned up the entire Imperial Household Department.
Later, it became extremely difficult for his concubines in the harem to do anything.
...
After returning to the palace as ordered by the emperor.
When A Ligun, the First-Class Duke of Guoyi and Minister of Justice, first received the imperial edict, he was truly shocked.
He knelt on the spot, holding the imperial edict, not yet able to react.
It was only after Su Peisheng reminded him again that Ali Gun finally came to his senses.
Then, Aligun quickly apologized, saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's grace is boundless. This servant thanks Your Majesty for your kindness."
"This servant was just too excited and lost his mind in a moment of joy."
Su Peisheng smiled and said slowly, "The sir's reaction is normal."
Who wouldn't be confused if they suddenly received such an imperial edict?
It should be noted that the Seventh Prince was favored by the Emperor from birth.
I still remember how happy the Emperor was when the Seventh Prince was born.
And when the Seventh Prince first went to study in the Imperial Study.
The emperor was genuinely worried about him.
Although the emperor was extremely busy with state affairs every day at that time,
Every month, I'm still sent to the Imperial Study to fetch the Seventh Prince to the Jiuzhou Qingyan Restaurant to have lunch with the Emperor.
Su Peisheng stopped talking at this point.
Aligun immediately said, "Thank you for your guidance, Eunuch Su. Thank you for your guidance, Eunuch Su."
Then he continued, "Eunuch Su, you must be tired from your journey. Please have a cup of tea before you go."
Su Peisheng nodded and said, "Now that you mention it, I do feel a bit thirsty."
Ali Gun quickly said, "Eunuch Su, this way please."
