Upon hearing this, Ituma Shushu's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly asked, "Xiao Anzi, what happened?"
Xiao Anzi quickly replied, "Your Majesty, news just came from the Imperial Study."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has promoted the Seventh Prince to the rank of Beizi."
Xia Ju and Dong Mei were overjoyed and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Ituma Shushu thought to herself: So that's why the Seventh Prince Hongzhao's dragon aura has increased!
Then, Ituma Shushu beamed and said, "This is a very happy occasion!"
"Xiao Anzi, convey my decree: all the servants of Chunqi and Xiuse will be rewarded."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"This servant thanks Your Majesty for your grace."
Xiao Anzi said excitedly.
Ituma Shushu nodded and whispered, "Xiao Anzi, go to the Prince's residence now and tell the Seventh Prince's wife about this."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xiao Anzi, step back.
Xia Ju smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that the Seventh Prince would become the Seventh Prince so quickly."
Dongmei excitedly exclaimed, "Your Majesty, the Emperor truly dotes on our Seventh Prince!"
Ituma Shushu smiled and said, "I also thought that His Majesty would wait until about a year after the Seventh Prince's wedding before bestowing the title of Seventh Prince upon him."
Unexpectedly, just one month after the Seventh Prince's wedding, the Emperor bestowed upon him the title of Beizi.
At the same time, Ituma Shushu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Don't think that a Beizi (a prince) is far inferior to a Beile (another prince).
It should be noted that the Third Prince Hongshi, the Fifth Prince Hongli, and the Sixth Prince Hongzhou were bald princes for many years.
Later, after the birth of Prince Hongzhao and Princess Anke.
Emperor Yongzheng only bestowed the title of Beile upon the three of them when they were ordered to move out of the Yuanmingyuan.
When the three of them were granted the title of Beile, they were much older than the seventh Beile, Hongzhao.
Hongzhao, the seventh prince, has now been granted the title of Beizi, and there are many more possibilities for him in the future.
...
The residence of the Third Prince Hongshi.
"Your Highness, news has come from the palace that the Seventh Prince has been granted the title of Seventh Prince."
Third Prince Hongshi nodded and said, "According to Father Emperor's favor towards the Seventh Prince."
It was only a matter of time before he was granted the title of Seventh Prince; there were no surprises.
The servant wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it, he swallowed his words.
After all, he knew that ever since Consort Qi passed away...
The Third Prince became much more depressed and stopped caring about many things.
...
In the residence of the Fifth Prince Hongli.
"Your Highness, the Seventh Prince has just gotten married."
"Isn't it a bit hasty for the Emperor to bestow upon him the title of Beizi?"
Fu Heng frowned and said in a low voice.
Fifth Prince Hongli pondered for a moment before speaking, "Actually, it's not that urgent."
The Emperor always gave preferential treatment to his favorite ministers from an early age.
For example, Tian Wenjing, Li Wei, Ortai, and Zhang Tingyu.
And what's more, it's his beloved youngest son!
Fu Heng thought for a moment and then thought of Zhang Tingyu, the only Han official who was entitled to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
Well, that's certainly the Emperor's temperament.
...
In the residence of the Sixth Prince Hongzhou.
"Alright, I understand. You may leave now."
After listening to the servant's report, Sixth Prince Hongzhou spoke.
"Yes, Your Highness, this servant takes his leave."
Next, Sixth Prince Hongzhou fell into deep thought.
Actually, I wasn't too surprised when my father was promoted to seventh prince.
Anyway, it was bound to happen sooner or later.
However, so many years have passed without us realizing it.
Now, not only has the seventh prince married a princess, but he has also been promoted to the rank of Beizi.
However, his three eldest sons, including himself, remained princes.
Although we don't know what the Emperor plans for the future.
However, since you know you don't have that ability, it's best to stay away from certain people or things as soon as possible.
Previously, I and my fifth brother Hongli were not only brothers who grew up together.
We were born in the same year.
Moreover, this was during the time when the Emperor was still a prince.
Since his third brother Hongshi was the son of a concubine, while he and his fifth brother Hongli were both sons of princesses in the Prince's mansion.
Cough cough, so back then, I and my fifth brother Hongli were also considered brothers in misfortune.
Yes, in recent years, my brother and my fifth brother Hongli's brother have all married wives.
So now both I and my fifth brother Hongli are grandfathers, and our families are quite large and prosperous.
I finally have a reason to gradually distance myself from my fifth brother, Hongli.
Moreover, Fu Heng, the brother-in-law of Hongli (the fifth brother), is much more capable than himself.
Nowadays, Fifth Brother Hongli discusses many things with his brother-in-law Fuheng.
My sixth brother no longer has to live like he used to.
He had to be on the same side as his fifth brother, Hongli, in everything.
Well, ever since Consort Qi passed away, my third brother Hongshi has become depressed.
Moreover, I have recently observed some of the actions of my third brother, Hongshi.
I also realized that he was already trying to distance himself as far away from that future position as possible.
It seems that Consort Qi, the mother of my third brother Hongshi, must have left him some words before she passed away.
Otherwise, with his stubborn personality, Third Brother Hongshi would have been impossible to persuade.
However, Hongshi's retreat at this time was truly just right.
Fortunately, I wasn't completely unprepared these past few years.
Over the years, he had become very close to his twelfth uncle, Prince Lü, Yun Tao.
When the Emperor first ascended the throne, he neglected his twelfth uncle, Prince Lü, for a period of time.
They even demoted his title to Duke of Zhenguo.
