Other princes gained favor because their brothers became emperors, but her husband, although the new emperor's younger brother, was clearly disliked by the new emperor. How could he possibly have a chance to rise in the ranks?
Look how powerful Prince Yi is now; his half-brother is more trusted by the new emperor than his biological brother.
That's really unfair.
Therefore, whenever Wanyan saw Heyue, she felt a lot of resentment. Although she couldn't say anything because of Prince Yi's prestige, she clearly had a smug look on her face when she saw the Empress Dowager lashing out at Heyue.
Heyue heard that Yongzheng had gone to Yonghe Palace to persuade the Empress Dowager to move to another palace, but the Empress Dowager refused to see him and declared that she would stay in Yonghe Palace forever unless she saw the Fourteenth Prince.

He Yue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she could finally leave, when she heard the Empress Dowager change her tone: "I am not feeling well and it is inconvenient for me to see the Emperor. Please see the Emperor off for me."
Everyone was stunned.
At this moment, no one would think that the Empress Dowager, who had been at odds with the new emperor for quite some time, had suddenly become maternal and felt sorry for her son.
Even if you really feel bad about it, you should send the Empress instead of Heyue.
After all, Heyue was the emperor's sister-in-law, so it would be somewhat improper for them to meet.
