After three days of discussion, Yin and Yin jointly submitted a secret memorial, which detailed the things needed for the naval port, including methods for self-sufficiency and the things needed for growing fruits and vegetables.
In the past few days, Qingyan has been taking her two children around, looking for usable places in the courtyard. Many of the trainees are informants from other families. When they saw Qingyan wandering around, they assumed it was just the children making a fuss and didn't pay much attention.
They hadn't noticed any other moves by Qingyan. Yin was busy with training and had no time to pay attention to anything else. Therefore, they kept a close eye on Qingyan's every move and wrote down Qingyan's actions in their family's secret code in their monthly letters home.
Yin kept a close eye on the participants' actions from behind. The letters they wrote home revealed a lot of secrets, and he even found the secret codes of each family.
"Mother, how far are we going?" Yiken asked, tilting her little head up and looking at Qingyan.
The trip over the past few days has left the children feeling physically and mentally exhausted. Every day after returning home, they are listless and dejected. Yin had informed the twins in advance of the mission they were to shoulder.
"It'll be another half hour, Yiken'e. Would you like to sit in the stroller for a while?" Qingyan bent down and asked Yiken'e.
His small face showed signs of exhaustion; he hadn't had time to rest properly.
"Mother, I'm tired!" Qingyan put Yiken'e in the stroller, while Hutulifengshengzhalafen held his little milk bottle and sat in the baby chair.
The two children sat to one side, looking listless and somewhat depressed.
"Alright, let's go to the training ground tomorrow, no need to walk anymore!" Qingyan also felt a bit bored. If she wasn't worried that these people had chosen the wrong place and it might affect the entire military port, she wouldn't have come to handle it personally.
Yay!
The twins cheered, their eyes filled with joy, finally relieved that they didn't have to walk anymore.
"Mother, shall we continue to have barbecue tomorrow?" Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen remembered that a few days ago, Yin and Yin set up a barbecue on a high platform, and they were able to enjoy it to their heart's content, while the trainees below were all groaning.
"Okay!" Qingyan agreed.
The next morning, Yin prepared a barbecue grill on the platform in advance. When the trainees saw it, they all understood that they were about to undergo another test.
Erlu and the others carried the marinated roasted meat and fruits and vegetables, carefully placing them inside the tent, waiting for their masters to arrive so they could light the campfire on the rack. The entire net was ablaze.
"Sulan, go and put the seafood out first!" Qingyan waved her hand, signaling the maids to start, while she prepared the sauce inside the tent and placed it in front of them.
"Fourth Aunt, shall we eat seafood again?" Songkelierha recognized the condiments on the table. Qingyan often makes some barbecue, and meat, seafood and fruits and vegetables are seasoned with three different kinds of condiments.
Qingyan nodded and told the three little ones to wash their hands, preparing them to do it themselves.
Previously, Yin and Qingyan had reminded them that they had been trained in Qiumi since childhood, hoping that the princes would have ways to protect themselves from a young age.
During the autumn festival, young children would accompany the emperor, which made it impossible to ensure their safety.
"You three go and bake something on that little rack over there. Your mother is here, so don't hurt yourselves, understand?" Qingyan bent down to look at the three little ones. She felt sorry for them and was about to have the servants take over.
Yin and his sister-in-law disagreed completely. They even told their daughters-in-law that the children should learn how to protect themselves in advance so that they would be better able to adapt to future inspection tours.
“Master, the young master is still young. Is it not right for you to do this?” Su Lan watched as the twins tucked their clothes into their waistbands, put on stern faces, and walked righteously toward the charcoal fire with their favorite seafood in their hands.
The trainees below were stunned. It was common knowledge that twins received high honors from the royal family.
Now, the twins, a boy and a girl, have been simply left aside by the Fourth Prince's wife, just like they were when they were young, which has clearly frightened them.
"Sister-in-law, the twins are still young. Let Songkelierha go by herself!" Yin Genjueluo softened her heart. Yiken'e had just squatted down when her face was covered in sweat from the charcoal fire.
Yiken'e was stubborn, much like Yin. He noticed that Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen was easily turning over the seafood, and the seafood in his hands had already turned charcoal-colored. His competitive spirit rose.
“No need. Fourth Brother said to let the children train first. The skewers they use are specially made, and they can all handle them.” Qingyan also felt sorry for them. Yin’s words were so righteous, it seemed that if she tried to stop them, she would be harming the twins.
Since the birth of the twins, a lot has happened around Yin. In the future, they will be even busier. The children need to know in advance that people are treacherous and that when they encounter difficult problems, they must at least save their lives.
"Really?!" Yin Genjue Luo was surprised. Yin was very protective of his own, yet he actually let the twins suffer.
"Sigh... Sister-in-law, he hopes the children won't encounter any danger. In case they do run into trouble, these seemingly insignificant methods could save their lives." Yin persuaded Qingyan. The twins had gone through various trials, and Qingyan would simply protect them from the sidelines.
Yin Genjue Luo sighed. Yin had also mentioned to her that Songkelierha was Kangxi's eldest granddaughter, and when she reached marriageable age, many young men would definitely come to her.
To prevent Songkrilha from being deceived by smooth talkers, they planned to teach her about all kinds of people from a young age, so that she wouldn't be fooled.
Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen always followed Songkelierha, so the two children received roughly the same treatment.
“My dear, Master said that they can dote on their daughters, but we can only cherish them for a little over ten years. For the next few decades, we will be living with our husbands’ family,” said Madam Yin Genjue Luo helplessly.
If Songkelierha is squeezed out, Yingenjueluo will resolutely refuse to compromise again.
"Yes, that's what Fourth Prince said too. The children are suffering so much, but it's all for their future!" Qingyan understood the fate of the Qing princesses. Kangxi used strong measures to suppress the Mongol princes' marriage alliances. What about Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen?
The princess, one of the first twins in the Qing Dynasty, will face great disaster due to her glorious status.
"Don't worry, I heard from Yin that Father Emperor is now preparing a consort for Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen!" Yin Genjueluo shook her head helplessly. Qingyan was worrying too early.
