Chapter 20 The Enthusiasm of Idealism

Yuyan is a person with a very grand ego. In other words, she has always been a person of integrity and self-righteousness. She knows what she wants to do, what she should do, and what she wants to do.

Her family three or four generations ago, in layman's terms, were feudal landlords.

However, since Yuyan could remember, her family had been like ordinary people, living an ordinary life struggling for themselves, and all the things passed down from their ancestors were gone.

There are external reasons for this, and of course there are internal reasons as well, but it is not because the children in the family are unfilial and squander all the family’s belongings.

Since I was a child, when I went to the cemetery in my hometown, my father and grandparents would chant incense and burn incense. The ancestors who received the offerings even included the concubines and great-aunts of a certain grandfather.

Just think about it, even the concubines and aunts have tablets, what kind of wealthy family must this be.

Later, Yuyan found out that the family had been passed down for thousands of years and was a large family, but later it split up.

This branch of theirs has continued to this day, and the records in the family tree began in the Ming Dynasty. There have always been people in this branch who have served as officials, and some have even become ministers of six ministries. They are a genuine family of imperial examinations.

It has lasted for 600 years from the Ming and Qing Dynasties to the present.

Then came Yuyan. Her parents only had her.

Her father is an army officer and her mother is a lawyer.

She wanted to be a doctor since she was a child and ended up working in veterinary medicine.

If it weren't for this family background, she wouldn't be so familiar with the history of the Qing Dynasty.

She was not without her ignorant times when she was young, but there seemed to be no chance for her to make mistakes at critical moments, so even at the age of 30, she still had her first love.

With the realization of her self-worth and the elevation of her outlook on life and values, she gradually understood that true love is hard to find in modern society, and most people just live together and go through life with the ups and downs of family affection.

It is absolutely impossible to satisfy Yuyan's yearning and pursuit for love and marriage.

What does she want?

Passionate love, eternal loyalty to each other, a body and soul that will never betray each other in a lifetime, desire, is to always be concentrated on only one person.

From ancient times to the present, such strong feelings are almost extinct.

Yuyan felt that she could not afford the unexpected change and blow of changing her heart halfway through.

The marriage she wanted could only exist in her fantasy. If she could meet such a lover, she would repay him with the same passion and loyalty.

Since there is no such thing and you cannot accept an equal exchange of benefits, a marriage relationship where two people transfer benefits to each other, then just stay single.

Too traditional, too decisive.

As for having children, after evaluating all the risk factors, Yuyan is still willing to give birth to children for her lover. She thinks that children should be the fruit of love.

It should not be a product of anything else, even the confusion of parents coming into this world.

We are born to take responsibility, and this is a huge responsibility.

Yuyan's ideas on marriage, love and parenting are extremely idealistic, even tinged with extreme romanticism, making her a typical dreamer.

The concepts of marriage and childbearing in feudal society are two extremes.

Yuyan thought that putting her here to live was a shock to the feudal society.

Even if their ancestor were alive, he probably wouldn't be able to accept such a rebellious child appearing in a noble family.

But Yuyan had no intention of compromising, let alone changing.

She died of depression because of compromising. The person in front of her has already died. Now that she is here, she must not kill herself again for this.

She has to live well.

Kangxi was gone, but Yinzhen still had work to do.

The emperor had given his word, asking him to grow rice in the south, so he had to grow it well.

Planting this is not something that can be completed in three to five days, let alone overnight. I am afraid that if I plant this year and harvest next year, I will be trapped in the garden.

Yinzhen could have farmed and performed his duties at the same time, but that would not have satisfied the Crown Prince. How could he let the Crown Prince down and then take action if he did not satisfy the Crown Prince?

So this time when he went out, he was ordered to farm, and the whole world knew about it. The prince did nothing himself and let the fourth prince farm to honor the emperor.

The fourth prince resigned from his job and returned home to farm wholeheartedly.

"People outside say that the Crown Prince is overbearing and can't tolerate our Beile, so they drove our Beile back."

"I heard that many people were very angry and wanted to speak for our Lord Beile. But Lord Beile calmed them down and did not let anyone speak to Lord Wansui."

Xiaohong told Yuyan the news she heard from outside.

Yuyan knew that Yinzhen must have a plan in mind. Since he wanted to win, he would not give up easily. He probably had some ideas in mind.

Yuyan did not interfere in his affairs. He was willing to fight for the throne, and was willing to fight for it in a high-profile manner, which was better than obtaining the throne in the dangerous and controversial way in history.

Yuyan asked: "Who wants to speak for Lord Beile?"

Xiao Hong said, "On the surface, it is just the masters of the Tong family. As for those who are secretly involved, I cannot find out."

"Oh, by the way, there was also a letter from the master's family asking quietly whether the master's family would also say a few words on behalf of the prince."

The "several masters of the Tong family" refer to the brothers of the queen of the Tong family, and are also the brothers of the current imperial concubine Tong Jia.

Empress Tongjia had raised Yinzhen for several years. Yuyan thought it was an old story mixed with the endless grudges between the adoptive mother and the biological mother.

But this is not actually the case.

Yinzhen had a harmonious relationship with his adoptive mother, Empress Tongjia. He also had good relations with Empress Tongjia's brothers, not just Longkodo, but all of them called him uncle.

Empress Tongjia treated Yinzhen as her own son and gave him all her possessions.

The Tong family also had a close relationship with Yinzhen.

However, the current Imperial Concubine Tong Jia was young. When she entered the palace, Yinzhen was already an adult. The two sides did not have much contact, and with the presence of Concubine De, the relationship was only subtle.

Yinzhen was ordered to farm at home, but in the eyes of the Tong family, it was just like being exiled to stay at home and have nothing to do. The prince's plan succeeded, and the Tong family was a little unhappy.

They were Yinzhen's biggest supporters and were deeply loved by Kangxi. Openly, they were the only ones who dared to make trouble.

Yuyan said, "Write back home, be quiet and don't mix anything else. Just live your life well."

The Ulanara clan does not have as thick blood as the Tonggiya clan, so they should not get involved in these matters.

Before Emperor Kangxi visited the garden, Jingcheng Garden was not open to the public and no one lived there.

Now that the Emperor had visited the garden, the people from the Fourth Prince's Mansion also moved in.

These children in the mansion still have to work on the farm with their father, so naturally they cannot go back to live in the mansion.

Xiao Hong came to report again: "Fujin, Song Gege is here. She said that the eldest princess had a bit of heat stroke after returning home, and asked the doctor to see her. The doctor said that she should rest. Song Gege wants to ask Fujin to see if the eldest princess can be allowed to go to farm the land."

"I also heard that the second and third princes did not seem to be in good condition after returning. They have invited doctors to check on them."

Although Li Cefu Jin did not come to beg, Xiaohong thought that after Li Cefu Jin finished taking care of the two princes, he would probably come.

Yuyan's residence in Jingcheng Garden is very large.

She is a person who never wrongs herself.

The weather is hot now, so I chose the second-floor waterside pavilion to stay in, which is cool and comfortable.

There is a beaded curtain hanging on the balcony and a gauze curtain inside. The wind from the lake blocks out the cool air, but it is still quite comfortable when it blows in.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon and evening, so Yuyan had already taken off her coat and was fanning herself with a feather fan to keep cool.

She now feels that she and Yinzhen are like a reconstituted family.

She was single, while Yinzhen had children of all ages and several concubines with her to form a family.

No matter where you are, with Yinzhen's conditions, no one would be willing to marry him. But if you add his status, everyone thinks this is normal.

These concubines are still quite honest now, but Yuyan is not very happy in her heart.

Because the children are not in good health, those who have children have to take care of them and have no energy to take care of other things.

For those who don’t have children, I’m afraid they are all thinking about how to have children.

Yuyan hated trouble the most. Song's request was simply disobeying the emperor's order.

She had to nod her head, and when asked later, she would ask if she, the legitimate wife, was the one who took the blame.

"Just say I'm tired and let her go back."

Yuyan leaned back on the couch and said, "As for the eldest princess's affairs, Lord Beile is here, so she doesn't need to worry about it."

Song was the first to follow Yinzhen. The eldest princess was eleven years old. She followed Yinzhen very early and was still in the palace when she gave birth to the eldest princess. She was very young, so the eldest princess was naturally weak when she was born.

At that time, Li was also a princess and was competing with Song for favor. The second princess was not well taken care of in the womb and was weak when she was born.

Within two years, the second prince was born. Li's health was not well taken care of, and the second prince was malnourished and also fell into a sickly state.

The third prince is born with congenital deficiencies.

It's just that the Fourth Prince is a little stronger.

If Yinzhen had not married Fujin, who was a serious and upright person who could suppress them, I am afraid that the Song and Li families would have continued to fight.

Now that the gap between their identities has widened, they have apparently stopped fighting and are both looking after the child, and are not acting like wretch for the time being.

Yuyan had been busy for so many days that even a strong person would be tired, not to mention that she was already short of energy and blood. She turned over to sleep and told Xiaohong: "Don't call anyone in. Don't tell me. Just block it yourself."

It's still better to be the heir apparent. You have the right to refuse people.

Being a boss in the modern world is also a situation that is out of control. The cell phone is on 24 hours a day, for fear that someone's pet is sick and there is no one to see, or that something happens in the hospital. She is the boss herself, so she never has a chance to take a good holiday.

Xiao Hong asked cautiously: "Then Lord Beile is here——"

"Block it." Yu Yan showed no mercy.

Yinzhen came back from finishing his work at night and took Su Peisheng to where Fujin lived as he was familiar with the route.

As a result, he was blocked by Xiaohong before he could even enter the door.

"Asleep?" Yinzhen looked around and saw that all the lights on the second floor were off.

But it’s not even seven o’clock yet. Why is Fu Jin going to bed so early?

Xiao Hong said, "Master Beile, Fu Jin is asleep. Fu Jin said he wanted to have a good rest. Please move aside, Master Beile."

Su Peisheng's eyes widened. What a servant, he is so bold. He even dared to challenge Lord Beile.

Xiaohong felt like crying but had no tears. I am Fu Jin's servant. If I must choose, I can only choose to offend Lord Beile!

Yinzhen was still thinking about Yuyan, and was afraid that she would be sad when she thought about Honghui. Now it seemed that Fujin was really in a bad mood and even refused to see him.

I originally thought that the relationship between the two had improved over the past few months.

Now it seems that we are back to the beginning.

Yinzhen raised his eyes and looked at the dark little building.

Having seen the light of the lamp, seen her smile, and experienced intimate moments with her, he didn't want to go back to the beginning.
