Three days later, Fei Yanggu arrived in Beijing, weary from his journey, having been summoned to the capital by a secret decree from Emperor Kangxi.
"A-Dun, how is Xiao-Guai's health?" Fei Yanggu was most concerned about Qing-Yan's health. He received a secret letter from Yin saying that Qing-Yan was pregnant again, and he was very excited.
"Master, it probably isn't very good," A-Dun said, shaking his head.
Fei Yanggu stared coldly at A Dun. Anyone who dared to touch Xiao Guai would be dealt with severely when he returned to the capital.
"Let's go to Changchun Garden first!" Fei Yanggu didn't dare to waste any time and went straight to Changchun Garden.
At this moment, Yin and Qingyan were paying their respects to Consort Tong when they heard that Fei Yanggu had come to pay his respects. A smile appeared on Qingyan's face.
"Mother, has Father really come to the capital?" Qingyan asked Consort Tong with surprise.
Kangxi strode in, and Fei Yanggu, after washing up, followed closely behind.
"My little darling, I've called your father back to deal with the troubles of the Jue Luo clan!" Kangxi looked at Qingyan with a smile.
The women of the Jue Luo clan visited him repeatedly, and Qingyan's health was not good, which greatly angered Kangxi.
Consort Tong reminded Emperor Kangxi that as a junior, Qingyan should not take action against him, no matter how high his status, lest he ruin his reputation.
After careful consideration, Emperor Kangxi decided to send Fei Yanggu to handle the matter, determined to prevent any further incidents at Qingyan.
"Your Majesty, you've had your fill of watching the show, but haven't you considered whether Xiao Guai's body can handle it!" Fei Yanggu was furious. If he had been called back earlier, neither of these two miscarriages would have happened.
"You rascal, you haven't handled the naval port matter properly, how do you think you'll be back?" Kangxi glared at Fei Yanggu. "Xiao Guai's health is very good. The reason we said she was having a miscarriage was just to keep those women away!"
Fei Yanggu glared angrily at Kangxi, the two men, whose combined age was nearly a hundred, were at it again.
"Alright, you two stop fighting. Aren't you afraid Xiao Guai will laugh at you?" Consort Tong had a headache; these two always bickered whenever they met.
Qingyan sat down next to Yin, indicating that he hadn't paid any attention.
"Alright, Fei Yanggu, go back and check on your wife. She performed exceptionally well this time!" Consort Tong praised Lady Jue Luo highly. "Tonight, you and the people around you will stay at the Yuanmingyuan Garden."
Qingyan was a little nervous. She and Jueluo hadn't come up with anything for many years, and the two of them were quite unfamiliar with each other.
"Yes!" Fei Yanggu was granted permission to reside directly in Changchun Garden, a privilege not afforded to other princes' wives.
Back at Yuanmingyuan, Qingyan quickly had Sulan and Suzhu prepare a courtyard. Wanfang Anhe was a good place, and it was quite a distance from Jiuzhou Qingyan, which would allow Qingyan to rest in peace and experience her parents' love.
"Little darling, are you sure you want to clean up Wanfang Anhe?" Yin asked, glancing at Qingyan. Wanfang Anhe was Qingyan's favorite place, and if it were cleaned up, it would be quite nice.
“Well, it’s rare for Father to come to Yuanmingyuan. I will give all the supplies from Wanfang Anhe to Mother. After the Banjin Festival ends in a while, it would be good for Mother to rest and recuperate here!” Qingyan quickly said.
Fei Yanggu and his two sons were not in the capital with her. She had heard from Su Lan about how the officials' wives treated the Jue Luo clan. Those officials' wives were all short-sighted.
At gatherings of officials' wives, they often used witty remarks to belittle Lady Jue Luo, so it would be a miracle if she was in a good mood.
“Actually, it’s not bad to keep them here. It saves us from having to deal with those concubines in the old house. None of them are well-behaved; they’re always thinking about how to deal with Mother!” Qingyan didn’t like Fei Yanggu’s concubines.
Yin listened to Qingyan's complaints but didn't say a word. Qingyan had suffered a lot of mistreatment as a child, and the concubines were just as cunning as the imperial concubines.
“But I often meet with the Jue Luo clan, and I feel uncomfortable!” Qingyan, now a mother, theoretically understands the Jue Luo clan, but emotionally there is still some distance between them.
"We'll only meet occasionally!" Yin was still in the courtyard, and Jue Luo Shi certainly wouldn't come over. "I'm here."
When Yin Heixian mentioned it to Qingyan, she chuckled. Jueluo Shi was a well-bred lady from a prominent family and knew the rules well from a young age.
"Sulan, go and prepare more dinner. Our father and mother will be coming over to eat together!" Qingyan quickly told Sulan to go and prepare.
As Yin watched her cheerful figure disappear into the distance, he felt slightly relieved.
"Little darling, be gentle!" Yin quickly instructed from behind.
In the evening, Fei Yanggu came over with Jue Luo Shi. Qing Yan was enjoying the cool air in the courtyard of Jiuzhou Qingyan, lying on a rattan chair. She turned her head and saw Fei Yanggu looking at her with a smile.
"Father, Mother, you've come!" Qingyan sat up straight and quickly greeted them.
Fei Yanggu nodded, watching as Qingyan directed Suzhu to bring over two rattan chairs and place them next to the round table.
"Mother, how are you feeling? Imperial Physician Yuan will be coming to take my pulse soon, so he can give you another checkup!" Qingyan looked at Luo Shi's complexion, which was much better than the last time she saw her.
"Little darling, your mother is doing well. You need to be careful. If something goes wrong again, you'll be the one who gets hurt!" Fei Yanggu said, glancing at Qingyan.
Qingyan nodded, indicating that she would be careful and there would be no more problems.
"The three ladies of the Jue Luo clan have come again?" Jue Luo looked at Qing Yan's slightly pale face. On the way, Fei Yanggu mentioned that the three of them had often come to Qing Yan's place to cause trouble, which made her very worried.
The wives of those three brothers were all formidable individuals. Furthermore, all the women selected for the imperial concubine selection this time were legitimate daughters, which only heightened their expectations.
