The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

"If you go back to the grassland, how can I explain to the emperor? My concubine is not in the mansion, not in the capital, but has returned to her parents' home and will never come again."

Yinzhen raised his eyebrows and threw the question away.

"That's easy. I can change my clothes and disguise myself as a man. I'm also good at martial arts, so I can sneak out without anyone knowing."

Looking at Mengguqing's clear and stupid appearance, Yinzhen was really helpless. If she ran out like this, wasn't she afraid of being killed as an assassin by the thousands of guards outside?

With such a brain, can she really take charge of Ujumchin?

Yinzhen felt that this was a thorny issue.

First of all, we must use an iron fist to occupy the territory first, count the soldiers, and suppress those who are ready to make moves. We must continue to fight wits and courage to win the support of the people, and maintain good relations with the capital and the Qing Dynasty.

Can Mengguqing really handle such a complicated situation?

Yinzhen looked straight into Mengguqing's eyes, his expression more serious than ever before.

"Mengguqing, do you know how dangerous this trip is? You may die here. By then, your branch of Borjigit will be wiped out. If you come back to the capital with me, you can still live a prosperous and stable life."

There was an extremely determined look in Mengguqing's eyes, and there was a terrifying light in her pupils. At this moment, she was like an eagle about to spread its wings, ready to take off.

"Yes, I have made up my mind. No matter what I will encounter this time, I am not afraid. I live for Ujumqin. Even if I die, I will protect Ujumqin with Abu Eji. Those uncles and brothers are incompetent and only care about pleasure. If we let them take charge, there will be no peace in the future!"

"Good!" In any case, Yinzhen admired her spirit and courage.

A few days later, Changning and Fei Yang'a came to meet Feng Sheng'e at the palace gate. The child seemed to have adapted well after staying in the palace for a few days. He held the small gift from Concubine De in his hand and said goodbye to his other cousins ​​before leaving.

Fu Jin also sent a carriage from the palace to pick up Honghui, but she had to go to the farm to inspect, so she couldn't come today. She missed her son very much and was very worried. So she had to trouble Changning to help her pick up the child.

Chang Ning agreed very readily. Picking up the kids was not a big deal, and it was convenient to pick up two kids at the same time. And seeing the two brothers cuddling close together, they seemed to have a good relationship.

Fei Yang'a had already run up to hug his brother's thighs, shouting happily: "Brother! Brother! Why did you come back just now! Let's go! I'll make you something delicious!"

Feng Sheng was also very happy to see his younger brother. He pulled his little hand and greeted Chang Ning first: "Mother, my son is back."

Honghui was also very polite, bowing like a little adult and saying, "Greetings, Chun'e Niang. I hope you are well, Chun'e Niang."

Chang Ning would not show any arrogance to children. She smiled and replied, "All is well. The wife went to the farm for something today, so I came to pick you up. Don't worry, the wife will be back after noon. There is hot water in the yard, waiting for you to wash. I also specially asked the eunuchs in the kitchen to prepare dry fried lamb chops. I won't set a limit on the amount for you today, so eat as much as you want."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

All three boys smiled happily.

They have long been dissatisfied with eating bland, tasteless dishes.

Children of this age particularly love to eat meat, but the rules of the front yard are the same as those of the palace. They will control the amount of meat that children can eat and will never let them eat as much as they want, especially big meat like deep-fried lamb chops, for fear that they will upset their spleen and stomach. Lamb is hot, and this dish also comes with fragrant and crispy chili segments, for fear that they will get a sore throat after eating it.

The boys liked to eat, but they couldn't eat enough, so they rarely ordered dishes on weekdays to avoid being reminded. Changning was generous and thought about how hard they had to study in the palace, so she asked the kitchen to make a big plate. As for fear of getting angry, she also specially ordered chrysanthemum tea to reduce heat.

The three boys hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they kept chattering, even sitting in the carriage.

Honghui and Feng Sheng'e wanted to go to the front and ride horses, so Changning agreed to their wish. After all, in ancient times, they were already big kids, so riding a horse was no problem.

As for Fei Yang'a, he also wanted to follow his two brothers.

Chang Ning looked at his short legs and decided to keep him by her side. This time he was not happy, and pouted his lips, looking at his two brothers riding big horses in front of him. He was so envious of their proud appearance, and thought that he would have to drink more milk when he returned.

After returning home, Changning prepared a separate table for the children and called Hutuli and Yierha over so that the five brothers and sisters could strengthen their relationship.

Yi Erha was still as gentle and sensible as before, and she was still well-behaved and friendly to Changning. However, she was twelve years old now, a grown-up girl, and Yinzhen and Fujin were already looking for someone to marry her.

Changning still hoped that she could marry into a good family, and thought of Song Gege through Yierha.

She was a loving mother at the beginning. Although she and her daughter could not see each other, she must be very pleased to see that her child has grown into a beautiful young lady.

Recently, the women in the backyard have been living like invisible people. Of course, this is for Qingzhiyuan. Changning no longer goes to the main courtyard to pay respects to Fu Jin. The women in the backyard will not bother her at all.

Days like this are quite comfortable.

Changning left the space to the children and returned to Qingzhiyuan.

She originally wanted to go back and take a nap, but her body had become increasingly fatigued due to her pregnancy and she was particularly sleepy.

But before she could close her eyes, Tingfeng came in in a hurry. Aunt Zhang glared at her fiercely. This bitch was becoming more and more tactless. Didn't she see that the master was about to take a rest?

Tingfeng knew exactly what Nanny Zhang was saying, but she was indeed very anxious, which made Changning feel anxious as well.

"Why, what happened to Lord Beile?"

"My Lord, it's not Prince Beile, it's Concubine Qing." Tingfeng hurriedly reported, "We heard that Prince Ujumchin passed away. Concubine Qing was so sad that her blood boiled and she passed away in shock and anger!"

"what?!"

Chang Ning couldn't believe it. How could it be possible? Meng Guqing was such a strong woman. In addition to being in love, she also had a strong heart. She still had a tribe to protect. How could she leave so easily?

She quickly got out of bed. Nanny Zhang was very worried and rushed over to support her.

Changning took out the jade hairpin with floral patterns from her dressing table. It had clear patterns and delicate carvings on it. It was left to her by Mengguqing.
