"Do you want a daughter-in-law who is easy to bear or a daughter-in-law who is filial? Marrying a daughter-in-law who is easy to bear may not necessarily make the son filial, but a filial daughter-in-law will assimilate the son. What do you think?"
Concubine Hui was helpless. That boy was the one who would call for help. Wasn't he just dissatisfied with the man she had chosen? He was the one who lived his life. Let him live his life as he pleased.
"Since you've said so, I'll also express my opinion. As long as they live in harmony, I have nothing to say."
"It's good that you think so, but I must first make it clear to you that neither I nor the Emperor favors boys over girls. You must not have such a preference."
"I understand, your majesty, don't worry. I just want to become a mam as soon as possible, there is no other intention."
"The Japanese Imperial Palace will hold a flower viewing banquet in a few days. You can then observe Irgen Jueluo again. If I remember correctly, she is quite good."
"Yes, I understand."
During the flower-viewing banquet, Concubine Hui indeed observed Irgen Jueluo carefully. She had a good appearance, personality and family background. No wonder her son fell in love with her. Well, let it be her.
The prince also spent some time with Guaerjia and felt that this princess was worthy of being trained by Kangxi since childhood and was indeed the most suitable candidate.
But from what she said it seemed that her grandfather was not in good health. It seemed that he had to tell the Empress Dowager and arrange the marriage and wedding as soon as possible, otherwise he felt that he would not be able to get married for several years!
As soon as the flower viewing banquet ended, the prince came to Kunning Palace to discuss related matters with Mu Sili.
"Mother, I have no objection to the selection of the Crown Princess, but I have a request. Could you please grant me the marriage as soon as possible? I want to get married sooner rather than later."
"You want to be a father? You are still young. I don't recommend you to have a child so early. It is not good for your health."
The prince's face turned red immediately. If this word got out, it would be said that he was crazy about women!
"Your Majesty, you misunderstood. I think starting a family early will be beneficial to my growth, and I also feel that if this matter is delayed, something unexpected will happen."
Mu Sili looked at the prince in surprise. Men also have a sixth sense? Isn't that something only women have?
"It's a good thing that you want to get married soon. I'll mention it to the emperor when he comes later. But you have to remember this: you're still young, so don't let your virility drain too early."
"I understand, Empress Dowager. I have to go back and tutor my younger brothers, so I'll take my leave now."
"Your Highness, why are you teasing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again? His Royal Highness's face is as red as a monkey's butt."
Yuan Shuang was helpless. Ever since the prince turned thirteen, the queen had often teased him about this. It had been two years, and the prince still blushed.
Even as Mu Sili's personal maid, she couldn't stand it anymore. The Empress had a really bad taste sometimes, so bad that she didn't even let go of the people around her.
She suddenly became a little worried about Wan Fu, Yin Zhen and the others. Will she start teasing them when they grow up?
"Yuanshuang, life only lasts a few decades. If you don't enjoy yourself now, will you regret it when you're old?"
Yuan Shuang was speechless after hearing this. She couldn't win against Mu Sili in a verbal battle, so she should just do her own thing.
Since he had agreed, of course he had to implement it as soon as possible. So as soon as the selection was over, Kangxi allowed the prince to marry Guwalgiya on the grounds that he was the heir to the throne.
Yinzhi had no objection. He would get married sooner or later anyway, and since the second son was the crown prince, it would be fine for him to go first.
Three months after Guaerjia's wedding to the prince, Guaerjia's grandfather passed away. The prince's first reaction was relief. He felt that his sixth sense was really strong.
As time passed, Kangxi grew old and Wan Fu grew up. He was as brave and good at fighting as Yinzhi. Even if the prince was unwilling, he still let him go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
"Empress Mother, please issue an edict to my third brother. He won't return to the capital without one. He promised to help his son, but now he's actually guarding the border!"
"I really can't help you with this. You know his temper. I guess he's attracted to a girl at the border and doesn't want to come back until he wins her over."
The prince looked at Mu Sili in shock. How could this be explained? Wasn't it because the border was not yet pacified that he couldn't return to the capital? How could she see it as loving beauty over the country?
"Don't look at me like that. If you don't believe me, go ask the Emperor. He's sure he thinks the same as me."
Ask the Emperor? Forget it. They are in the same boat, and he doesn't want to go up and ask for trouble.
"Speaking of which, there will be another talent show this year. The Crown Princess hasn't gotten pregnant yet, so why not grant you a concubine?"
"Let's not have one. My son thinks the Crown Princess is pretty good. She has to give birth to the eldest son. Before she gives birth to the eldest son, my son doesn't want any children."
Mu Sili looked at him in surprise. If she remembered correctly, they had just consummated their marriage last year, but they still hadn't gotten pregnant. Should they find a royal physician to check them out?
"or......"
"My son and the Crown Princess are both doing well, so don't worry, Madam. If you want a grandchild, you should look to my eldest brother first. I heard that my eldest sister-in-law is pregnant."
"That's true, but I still really want to hold your offspring. It doesn't matter if it's a grandson or a granddaughter, I like them all."
"The Crown Princess isn't pregnant yet, so why don't you worry about your third brother? He's far away in the frontier and has no time to take care of these things."
The prince felt that if he continued talking and didn't give birth to a child for Mu Sili to raise, Kangxi would go to Yuqing Palace and kill him and say that he was useless, so he quickly found an excuse to run away.
"Ah, when children grow up, they are not as fun as when they were young."
Yuan Shuang was already numb and didn't want to respond.
"Send a message to Wan Fu, telling him that if he doesn't come back, I'll arrange a marriage for him. As for whether he likes the wife or not, I don't care."
"yes."
Wan Fu, who was far away at the border, was killing the enemy with great enthusiasm and was planning to capture the enemy camp in one fell swoop. However, he was so frightened by the news that he returned to Beijing overnight.
"Empress Mother, my son is back. Did you miss him? I miss you too. Look at the gift I brought you!"
"Where did this big black charcoal guy come from? He actually called me the Empress Dowager!!!"
Wan Fu's sudden appearance startled Mu Sili. This charcoal-haired man was her son? This world was crazy!
Wan Fu was shocked. Did the Empress Dowager not intend to acknowledge him as her son? Could it be that she had another younger son? It didn't seem likely.
"Queen Mother, please stop making a fuss. I heard you were going to arrange a wife for me, so I came back to check on the situation. If you want a grandson, just ask my second brother. Why would you enslave me? I'm busy building my career!"
