When it came to marriage alliances with Mongolians, Khoja did not avoid it like others did.
He Zhuo: "This is only right, it is a responsibility and obligation that Little Treasure cannot escape."
Yinzhi was taken aback by his gentle and obedient wife's realization and stared blankly at Hezhuo, as if trying to discern whether Hezhuo was being sincere.
"Why are you looking at me like that, sir?"
Yinzhi: "The concubines in the palace all avoid marrying far away to Mongolia like the plague, but I never expected that the Fujin..."
Yinzhi discovered that his wife was indeed very frank, which meant that she was sincere when she said those words.
He Zhuo stretched and said, "In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with marrying into Mongolia. Although the living conditions are not as good as in the capital, the absence of the constraints of etiquette in the capital is not necessarily a bad thing."
"The sky is high enough for birds to fly freely, how delightful!"
Nowadays, Manchu noblewomen in the capital are becoming increasingly Sinicized. Although they no longer stay at home, they are paying more and more attention to etiquette.
“Grandpa, don’t look down on my father just because he’s a civil official. All of us brothers and sisters grew up with him. He always said that the Manchus conquered the world on horseback, so we must not forget our roots. Therefore, all the sisters, regardless of whether they are legitimate or illegitimate, must learn to ride horses and shoot arrows when they turn six.”
Yinzhi was surprised that his delicate and soft-bodied wife was also skilled in horseback riding and archery. He put his arm around Hezhuo's waist and said, "Alright, let's go to the training ground tomorrow."
"Alright, let me show you my prowess." He Zhuo said smugly. (￣▽￣)~*
Yinzhi chimed in, "Alright, Your Highness and Your Highness will have a good match tomorrow."
"Your Majesty, did you see my sixth brother? He was the tallest one at the birthday banquet that day. I am about the same age as my sixth brother, and we have been best friends since childhood. My sixth brother is good at riding and archery. My grandfather once said that my sixth brother is the most like him and will surely become a fierce general of the Qing Dynasty in the future."
"Your Excellency is the Baturu of our Great Qing Dynasty. What are you comparing yourself to? Compare yourself to Sixth Brother instead."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhi became interested: "I'll invite him out these next few days so we can go to the horse races in the outskirts of Beijing for a horse race."
He Zhuo only wanted to live a quiet life and didn't want others to know how good he was at horseback riding and archery. He didn't want to do anything to show off.
“Alright, let’s set off tomorrow. I’ll leave the children with Mother first thing tomorrow morning.”
"Hmm, we'll talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. I miss you now." After saying that, Yinzhi pressed down on her and kissed Hezhuo's little mouth, which was about to object.
The two had a good plan.
Unfortunately, the next morning the snow was everywhere, and the plan fell through.
┓(?′?`?)┏
The couple, unable to go out due to the snow, enjoyed wine while admiring the snow.
Little Treasure is building a snowman with the servants. Her little hands are red from playing, and she is wearing a red cloak, blending into the snowy scene as a picture of children playing in the snow.
Zhou Fugui came in to report, bowing deeply: "Your Highness, Your Highness, the Eighth Prince, the Ninth Prince, and the Tenth Prince have arrived."
Yinzhi paused in his drinking: "What are they doing here?"
Little Zhenbao, with her sharp ears, heard that Uncle Ba was coming, so she stopped playing in the snow and ran over, shouting, "Father, Uncle Ba is here?"
The little girl's face was rosy, and a gust of cold wind blew in as she played in the snow. Her coat was a little wet.
He Zhuo knew his daughter was healthy and not afraid of anything, so he let her be.
He Zhuo helped her brush the snowflakes off her clothes: "Your eighth uncle and the others are here. Little Zhenbao, go wash up, drink some ginger soup, and change your shoes. You've all stepped in mud."
"Okay, I'll change my shoes and then I'll come back to play with Uncle Ba."
Little Treasure ran away as soon as she finished speaking.
He Zhuo helped Yin Zhi straighten his clothes, and then they came out together to greet him.
