Yin Yi watched the reactions of the various Mongol tribes closely. Only three days after returning to the camp, Qing Yan met the newly appointed wives and noticed that their demeanor was superior to that of the previous primary wives.
"Fourth... This really gives me a headache!" Qingyan rubbed his temples as he finished receiving Hangai's wife.
How could she not realize that talking to these wives was such a chore?
"Little darling, does your head hurt?" Yin poured Qingyan a cup of tea, hoping she could relax first.
She nodded. The wives' Chinese proficiency was very low, and Xiao Guai had to speak Mongolian to communicate with them.
"Speaking Mongolian all the time is giving me a headache too." She pouted, explaining that of the three languages she had been taught, Mongolian was the worst.
Now, she listens to Mongolian every day, which gives her a headache.
She moved closer to him, looking aggrieved, and buried her face in his chest.
"Next year, you'll rarely get involved with those people," Yin said, pinching her little face to comfort her.
She nestled in his arms, and Yin's deep voice reached her ears.
"Hmph, those people are still incorrigible and want to find you concubines!" Qingyan has been troubled by this several times, and it has given her a headache.
"Yes, Father Emperor wouldn't agree either," Yin said directly.
The little darling he was holding was rocking back and forth, and the servants were all standing outside the tent, listening to the two masters whispering to each other.
Mongolian leaders have always used the practice of "wife diplomacy" in order to find powerful backers.
"Ahhhhh!" Yiken woke up in the stroller, waving her little fists.
Looking at his parents with his dark, watery eyes, Qingyan heard Yiken'e's voice and quickly got up to go over. Yin couldn't help but frown; his son was a menace.
Every time Yiken wakes up, she will definitely look for Qingyan first.
He was always the one who was ignored, and since the little guy was born, his status in Xiao Guai's heart has become increasingly lower.
"I'll hold him." Yin never followed the rule of holding his grandson but not his son in front of Xiao Guai.
Qingyan looked down at Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen, whose half-asleep appearance made her kiss her affectionately.
"Baby, wake up quickly." Qingyan picked up the little girl and swayed her from side to side.
During the day, she rarely let the children sleep too much, in case they woke up in the middle of the night.
"Don't disturb her sleep. If she doesn't want to get up, just let her sleep peacefully," Yin said in a low voice.
The son needs strict management, while the daughter can sleep freely; the two will face different situations in the future.
"You're just tormenting your son!" Qingyan rolled her eyes. Xiaobai scurried in from outside and saw that the two little ones were awake, their eyes wide open, as they climbed down in front of the stroller.
Yin frowned, wanting to reprimand the servants outside.
There are two small pillars inside the tent; how can we let Little White in?
"These servants, what if they hurt the two little ones?" Yin frowned, wanting Su Peisheng to take Xiaobai out.
"No need. The more time the children spend with Xiaobai, the better their temperament will become, and they will also learn to share." Qingyan thought of how many families in modern times keep pets at home and let young children take care of them.
What?!
Yin couldn't help but widen his eyes; the royal children didn't take care of small animals.
“No, the manor has servants who manage these animals. Let them play with the two little ones when they are happy.” Yin looked at her disapprovingly.
"Little White, this is your little master. You must protect her well, understand?" Qingyan said, holding Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen.
Little White sat on the ground, looking intently at Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen. It nodded slightly, indicating that it would take good care of her in the future.
Qingyan trusted Xiaobai a lot. It had stayed in the space for a while and was not comparable to the mastiffs outside.
"Little darling, are you sure?" Yin was puzzled; she valued the children's safety highly.
"Of course, Xiaobai is no ordinary mastiff. I'm sure the two little guys can handle it; they might even be more reliable than people." The wet nurses who had been with the two children had been beaten to death by Qingyan. After returning to the camp, the wet nurses behaved somewhat strangely.
Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen's wet nurse seemed to be following the family's orders, constantly scolding the little girl. Suhua returned and reported to her that the wet nurse would occasionally scold the little girl, and when she cried, she would say that when she grew up, she would have to listen to her.
"Yes, the wet nurse's entire family was sent to be buried with her." Yin was very protective of his youngest daughter and had been dealing with the remaining issues these past few days.
He took the incident involving Hutu Rifengsheng Zhalafen's wet nurse very seriously, as it was also a way to prepare for the first handling of the situation for his youngest daughter.
"Four...isn't that a bit too much?" Qingyan asked.
He shook his head. Eight wet nurses only serve two masters. He would not keep any servants who wanted to control their masters.
“We must set a good example for her. These servants are ambitious, and if the masters indulge them, it may cause considerable harm to the children.” Yin was very worried that his youngest daughter would be like the princesses of the past.
In the end, he had no choice but to use the dowry money to bribe the old women to see the prince consort. If such a thing had happened to Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen, he would have been heartbroken.
She understood this principle, and since having children, she has paid extra attention to her words and actions, hoping to set a good example for them.
"Master, Eunuch Li has arrived. He says he wants to bring the young prince and the young princess over." Su Peisheng walked in from outside and respectfully informed Yinhe Qingyan.
"Quickly, invite Anda over!" Yin and Qingyan straightened their ordinary clothes, then carried the child out together.
After bowing to the two, Li Dequan said with a smile, "Fourth Prince, Fourth Princess, His Majesty and Your Highness wish to bring the young prince and princess to the Imperial Tent for a few days."
Yin nodded and said, "Anda, I will personally pick them up tonight. It would be my fault if the children were to disturb Father's sleep."
Li Dequan did not stop them, because they were all serving the emperor and valued his feelings more.
"Fourth Master, you and Fourth Princess Consort will have to work a little harder recently. The wet nurses in the Imperial Household Department also need to be dealt with. We need to carefully select the wet nurses for the two young masters." Li Dequan looked at the shadows under Qingyan's eyes and comforted them with kind words.
"Yes, I understand what Anda said." Yin nodded.
Kangxi's intention was to clean up the servants and then replace the maids with new nannies for the princesses, since these nannies from the Imperial Household Department had caused quite a bit of trouble.
"Sulan, have you prepared everything?" Qingyan went to instruct Sulan to prepare the children's things and bring them to the imperial tent.
"This servant is all ready, my masters, please rest assured." Su Lan prepared to accompany the two children to the imperial tent.
The day before yesterday, Yin personally cleared the tents, and many people who came out of the mansion were beaten to death. Those still on duty were somewhat terrified and became even more cautious in following the rules. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian.
