The year passed in the blink of an eye, and it was January of the 32nd year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign.
Because Emperor Kangxi had no empress, the affairs of the harem were managed by four consorts.
Therefore, Consort Hui was very busy every New Year, and He Zhuo wisely did not disturb her.
After a period of busy work, Consort Hui finally had some free time and sent someone to say that she missed her grandchildren. He Zhuo was happy to have some free time, so he took them over.
He Zhuo is different from ordinary daughters-in-law; she never worries about how her mother-in-law will raise her grandchildren!
The grandmother is worried that she and the child will be closer, and the child will be less close to her, so she takes the grandson to live with her and raise him. This is the kind of situation.
He Zhuo was never worried.
Now, Emperor Kangxi's only two healthy grandsons were born to Hezhuo. Consort Hui naturally knew that the emperor would never allow her to raise his grandsons, and she wouldn't be foolish enough to ask for it.
Consort Hui simply loved her grandchildren; wanting to be close to them was simply a grandmother's nature.
The Crown Prince's sickly son, the imperial physician predicted, would not live past ten years old.
The couple left the palace together.
Yinzhi had always been thinking about his sixth brother, who was highly skilled in martial arts, and wanted to have a match with him.
"Sixth Brother" He Zhuo Xian saw his sixth brother and waved and called out.
The two groups met at the entrance of the horse farm in the western suburbs.
After dismounting, Sixth Brother Jia Hui led his horse to the old man and his wife.
"This servant greets the master and the princess."
After exchanging greetings, the two sides went to choose horses.
He Zhuo was there to join in the fun, so he ran up to Sixth Brother's side. Sixth Brother Jia Hui (meaning eagle in Manchu) is two meters tall. He Zhuo is almost 1.7 meters tall, which is not short either, but he has to look up to talk to Sixth Brother.
He Zhuo: "Sixth Brother, when did you come back? Are you leaving again this year?"
Sixth Brother Jiahui: "Yes, I will be away for another six months this year. I will leave after the first month of the lunar calendar and will probably come back in the second half of the year. After I come back, I will prepare for the imperial examination."
He Zhuo pondered for a moment and then said, "Father will definitely personally lead another expedition against Galdan. In the next two years, the court will have been recuperating. If Sixth Brother passes the imperial examination and becomes a Jinshi or a Zhuangyuan or Tanhua, his starting point will be higher than that of ordinary soldiers."
“That’s what I was thinking too. When Sixth Brother passes the imperial examination and earns military merit, he can support our Little Khoja and prevent anyone from bullying you. What do you think?” Sixth Brother Jia Hui gestured with his mouth towards Yin Zhi’s direction. “He didn’t bully you, did he? Should Sixth Brother teach him a lesson?”
Sixth Brother Jia Hui was unhappy.
My sister, a fairy-like beauty, entered the royal family and was subject to many restrictions. There were also a lot of messy things in the prince's harem. How could such a rough man be worthy of my sister?
He Zhuo blinked: "Sixth Brother, don't worry. Grandpa is very good to me and to the children. You know me. If he's not good to me, I'll smash his dog head in."
He Zhuo said this in a coquettish manner, giving off a vibe reminiscent of a violent loli.
In Sixth Brother's heart, his little sister is good no matter what, and she's very cute now.
┗(▔，▔)┛
Sixth Brother Jia Hui was the only one in the Irgen Gioro family who knew about his sister's differences. He had some knowledge of martial arts from learning from his master, but he only knew that his little sister He Zhuo was a martial arts master like himself, and he didn't know anything about cultivating immortality.
Sixth Brother Jia Hui had no spiritual roots and knew that it would be harmful to him, so He Zhuo didn't tell him.
He Zhuo then turned his attention to his sixth brother's martial arts skills, raising an eyebrow and asking, "Sixth brother, what level are you at now?"
Sixth Brother affectionately stroked He Zhuo's hair and replied, "I reached the Innate Realm two years ago, and now I'm in the late Innate Realm. I've been practicing with the axe you sent me before, and it's very useful. I didn't bring it with me today; the axe is at home. I'll show you how to use it sometime."
The martial arts technique that the senior monk taught Sixth Brother was "Double Axes," which, as the name suggests, involves using axes. In this era, military merit was highly valued, and axes were a very useful tool.
Of course, Sixth Brother also learned staff techniques.
