The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

The spring banquet in Hutu was still very successful. There was no vicious female supporting role as Changning worried about, nor any blind girl who had to bump into others to seek attention. They were all quite well-behaved and decent.

Come to think of it, if the rules are not learned well, who can let their children go out without worrying about it? Wouldn't that bring disaster to the family?

This is feudal society, the ancient Qing Dynasty, the peak of class hierarchy. There are not so many idol drama plots.

Changning listened to his daughter chattering about what she had seen and heard at that time. It was quite lively and joyful. There were some treasures that Prince Zhi had spent a lot of money to search for, and there were also flowers that were carefully cultivated and were in full bloom.

The girls also raced horses, played pot toss, mahjong, and drank wine and recited poems.

Of course, they don’t drink alcohol either, they just drink fruit tea to keep things interesting.

Speaking of poetry, she also specially praised the girl from the Xilin Gioro family, saying that she could compose poetry on the spot and was very talented, like a female poet.

Changning thought about it. Xilinjueluo? Who is this?

"I heard from them that she is a princess from Ortai's family, and her father is a deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Changning suddenly realized that he was from his family. She had also heard of him and vaguely remembered that this Ortai was also an important official of Yongzheng. However, his rise to fame was the same as that of the Thirteenth Master, not in this dynasty, but in the Yongzheng dynasty.

The reason why Changning remembered him was that Ortai was in charge of the southwestern region, including Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi. He supervised the three provinces, reformed the aboriginal system, and made outstanding contributions.

As for why Changning, a person from Northeast China, is so concerned about Yunnan, we can only say that Yunnan and Hainan are the fourth and fifth provinces where people from Northeast China gather.

She went to college in Yunnan for a few years and loved the rice noodles there, so she often eats rice noodles at home now.

But then again, the daughter of Ortai's family is actually so powerful. From what Hutuli said, the girl is one year younger than her!

This is truly a child prodigy. Even Hutuli can't compose poetry! (Original work)

Changning was somewhat interested in her, not only because of her extraordinary talent, but also because Hutuli had been talking about this new sister.

She has also seen talented women, isn’t Zhang Gege, the one in the Fourth Master’s backyard, one of them?

Unfortunately, there is no place for her to display her talents. She just spends her days with Gao Gege in the backyard.

I heard before that she could publish a collection of poems every year, but now there is no news about it.

I hope that Xilin Gioro will not end up like Zhang Gege.

Changning always felt a little regretful.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then they heard some noise in front. They called Tingfeng to ask, and sure enough, they heard that the prince had returned.

But he entered the palace again.

Changning was delighted but also knew that he should go to the palace to report to the emperor.

Changning thought that he must have not eaten well after the long journey, so she quickly notified Eunuch Ma to prepare some Sichuan dishes to go with the rice.

Seeing that Hutuli still wanted to stay here, Changning tapped her forehead and said, "Go back quickly. You have eaten everything today. Eat less sweet and spicy food."

Hutuli curled her lips, but she knew that she couldn't disturb her father and mother. She was sensible and just said she would come to see her father tomorrow.

Changning ordered a few dishes and waited for Yinzhen to come back.

Unexpectedly, I heard someone say that the Thirteenth Master had arrived.

Changning thought that this person was probably asking for help again. The fifteenth princess had been engaged and would be married this year.

As expected, in the study, the Thirteenth Master first expressed his concern and condolences to Yinzhen for the hard work on the journey, and then talked about Princess Heshuo Dunke.

"What? Has the Emperor decided to let the eldest princess from my eldest brother's family take care of Meng?"

When Yinzhen heard the news from Thirteen, his usually calm face became a little flustered.

Yinxiang nodded quickly. This time he was not asking for help, but coming to deliver a letter.

Because of the matter of his fifteenth sister, he kept an eye on the Ministry of Internal Affairs day and night, fearing that they would make a mistake and tamper with his sister's dowry. If they found something wrong after she got married, would he let the princess write a letter and cry?

As a result, after watching so closely, he was the first to find something wrong. The Ministry of Internal Affairs had fixed rules for preparing dowries. There were suddenly more of them in the past two days. It couldn't be to add dowry to Princess Dunke, so it could only be that there was someone else to be supported.

Who else could it be?

All the princesses in the palace have been married, and now among the princes, the only ones of marriageable age are the daughters of the Prince of Zhi.

Therefore, after Thirteen guessed the emperor's intention, he had been thinking about sending a message to his fourth brother, but he had no evidence and could not write a letter to leave any handle, otherwise it would seem like he was always keeping an eye on any movement in the palace.

We can only wait for fourth brother to come back.

As soon as he heard that Yinzhen had returned, he rushed over without stopping to discuss things with him.

He knew that there were two princesses in his fourth brother's mansion, Yierha and Hutuli. According to his understanding of his fourth brother, he would not give up either daughter and was unwilling to abandon any of them.

Then we need to sort out a set of rules for this matter.

The eldest daughter of Prince Zhi is already married, so how long will it take for the younger daughters to get married?

We can't cram at the last minute like he did, otherwise we'll just be ringing the bell randomly. We have to discuss this in advance.

Seeing Thirteen's caring look, Yinzhen felt warm in his heart and patted him on the shoulder.

"Thirteen, your heart is known to me. I love you well. I remember your kindness in this matter."

Thirteen felt embarrassed after hearing what he said: "What's the big deal, Fourth Brother, you are my real brother. Without your help, I don't know how I would get through the day. As long as I can help you, I will do anything. Just tell me what to do!"

Yinzhen nodded and asked Thirteenth to go back home first. This matter could not be rushed and he needed to think about it carefully.

After Thirteenth Prince left, Yinzhen's originally gentle face suddenly turned cold. He took a long breath, adjusted his mood, and then walked towards Qingzhiyuan.

As soon as he walked into Qingzhiyuan, he could smell a spicy aroma, and Yinzhen immediately felt hungry.

When he opened the door curtain and walked in, he saw a large table of delicious dishes. Yinzhen swallowed his saliva and saw Changning was sitting and wanted to move, so he hurried forward to stop her: "What are you doing?"

Chang Ning glared at him: "I just want to welcome you."

"No, no, you're heavy, I'll come over to accompany you."

Yinzhen washed up briefly, then sat next to Changning and picked up some food for her.

There was a pot of taro chicken in the middle of the table.

The spicy and fragrant smell that Yinzhen smelled came from this hot pot of food.

The round taro rolls in the red oil, the chicken is cut into small pieces, chicken legs, wing roots, and the whole wing can be seen. The skin is fried golden and soaked in red oil, which looks very appetizing.

Turning the chopsticks downward, there were quite a few side dishes, including green vegetables, mushrooms, tofu skin, bamboo shoots, etc. Yinzhen picked up a piece of soft and glutinous taro and gave it to Changning. The taro was stewed very well and it fell apart with a slight touch of the chopsticks.
