The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Chen Zhihuai?

Changning felt the name sounded familiar and suddenly realized that this was the young man who had killed the wild boar mentioned in Hutu last time. He was the great-grandson of Lord Chen.

"Is he good with the slingshot?"

Hutuli gave a rare thumbs up: "It's really accurate, it can kill two birds with one stone, it's better than Hongyan."

Chang Ning also praised: "That is indeed a high level of martial arts. He is so young, but his martial arts attainments are so high. I don't know how talented he is."

"I heard from Duo Xihui that he is very good at studying. After talking to him a few times, I found that he knows a lot, just like Hongyan, and he can show off his knowledge."

Chang Ning was quite surprised, and now he was also interested: "So, he is a man of both civil and military talents. How does he look like?"

"What does she look like? She's fair and pretty." Hutuli didn't care at all. She cared the least about people's appearance.

Changning secretly paid attention. After hearing this, he felt that Chen Zhihuai was a person he knew well, had his own abilities, and had an outstanding family background. He sounded good and could be put in the reserve pool of sons-in-law for the time being.

Ever since Concubine De gave those two bracelets to Changning, she has always been worried that there was some hidden meaning behind this.

If one day, before Yinzhen ascended the throne, Kangxi directly let her daughter raise the child, then it would be the end of the world.

So she is now anxious to find a candidate for son-in-law. Anyway, she wants to settle the marriage first. If she really wants to get married, she has to wait until Hutuli is twenty years old.

By that time, Yinzhen would have already ascended the throne, and he would then carefully examine whether the son-in-law was qualified. If not, he would simply cancel the engagement. To put it bluntly, it was just to find an emergency first.

As he was thinking about this, the carriage swayed and Changning fell asleep.

Hutuli wanted to say something else, but when he turned around, he found that his mother had fallen asleep, so he quickly took a blanket and covered her.

He also lay down next to his mother, closed his eyes and rested, thinking about how to use a whip and a slingshot.

In another carriage, Hongyan and Hongzhao were together, and the two brothers were reciting the book. When Honghui got on the carriage, he saw such a happy scene, and his heart was warmed.

"Brother." Hong Yan greeted him, while Hong Zhao was still immersed in the article he had just read.

Honghui responded with a smile, and touched Hongzhao's little face again: "Hongzhao, you are so hardworking, and you are still memorizing your lessons. When you get there, I will give you a sword as a reward."

Hong Zhao smiled and said, "Thank you, brother."

Honghui came to accompany his younger brothers only after listening to Fu Jin's words.

He felt that what his mother said made sense. If he wanted to be the crown prince and take on the responsibilities of the mansion, he would have to show his father that he and his younger brothers got along harmoniously and could talk to each other, and that he could shoulder the burden of being the eldest brother.

Among the younger brothers in the palace, he was more familiar with Hong Yan, after all, the two of them studied together in the palace for such a long time. He rarely interacted with the other younger brothers, Hong Zhao, Hong Min, and Hong Chen, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to his younger brothers.

So he acted like an older brother throughout the journey. Although the carriage was bumpy and his body might not be able to handle it, he still did his best to make arrangements for his younger brothers.

Yinzhen was particularly pleased with this and could not help but praise Honghui: "Honghui is acting more and more like a brother now. It is a blessing for your brothers to follow you. Hang in there for a few more days, and when we get to Mulan Paddock, I will take you to exercise your body."

He was a little worried when he saw his eldest son's thin body. He discussed with his wife and decided that he should run more horses to make him stronger. He also asked his wife to prepare some medicinal food for him to eat, taking a two-pronged approach.

After receiving praise from his father, Honghui became even more motivated and began to care more about his younger brothers.

Hong Zhao couldn't help but secretly complain to Hong Yan: "Brother, why has Big Brother been around us two every day lately?"

Hongyan was watching him write, and when he saw this, he patted his head and taught him a lesson: "You should be calm when reading and writing, and don't let external things disturb your mind."

Hong Zhao stuck out his tongue. He felt that his brother was becoming more and more like his father. He did not dare to disobey and just wrote honestly.

Changning was feeling a little uncomfortable and kept falling asleep. Hongmin and Hongchen were also in their brothers' carriages these past two days, with Hongyan leading them to recite the Three Character Classic.

"When people are born, their nature is good. Natures are similar, but habits make them different. If there is no teaching, nature will change."

“The way of teaching is to be specialized.”

When the two younger brothers were still toddlers, they were already able to recite the poem fluently. In Hongyan's opinion, his younger brother Hongmin was smarter and was more willing to focus on reading poetry.

Although brother Hongchen speaks more fluently, he is a bit impetuous. Like Hongzhao, he needs someone to watch and supervise him, otherwise he will always be looking around.

At this time, Hongyan understood why his father was sometimes a kind father and sometimes a strict father.

When watching their younger brothers learning to write, if they didn't have a stern face, they would really be so arrogant and laugh.

It is not acceptable to do research without any seriousness.

Therefore, Hongyan was already acting as his father at a young age. Even Yinzhen would smile when he saw him, thinking that his son was so much like himself!

He originally wanted to have a good chat with Changning about the interesting things between the children in the evening, but when he entered the tent, he found that she was sleeping very soundly, which made him feel a little doubtful.

Although people feel sleepy in spring and tired in autumn, isn’t Yaoxian too sleepy?

Is there something wrong with my body?

After thinking about it, he was still a little worried, so he called Fuxue, her personal maid, to ask her.

"How long has your master been sleeping? Has the doctor checked him?"

Chuixue lowered her eyebrows and looked submissive, but her answer was calm and generous: "My Lord, Bai Shu has already checked and said that the Master is very likely pregnant, but it is still too early to be completely sure."

Hearing this, Yinzhen suddenly realized that, yes, her symptoms of drowsiness and fatigue were very similar to those during her previous pregnancy.

But he became even more worried, and ordered people to call Bai Zhu and Bai Fuyi over, intending to interrogate them in detail.

"Is it possible to confirm that Concubine Chun is pregnant?"

Facing Yinzhen's question, Doctor Bai stepped forward to feel the pulse, and after a long while he nodded, "My Lord, Master Chun is indeed pregnant, and has been pregnant for more than a month. It is normal for her to be sleepy and weak now. After all, the bumpy carriage still has some impact on Master Chun."

Yinzhen frowned. If he had known this, he shouldn't have let her come along. This journey was tiring, and he didn't know if she could stand it.

Doctor Bai stroked his beard and whispered, "Don't worry, Lord Beile. I will prescribe two doses of medicine and cook some medicinal food for Master Chun to take, and he will be fine."

Yinzhen nodded, but he was more worried about another person.

"I have also taken some contraceptive medicines recently, but how come I am still pregnant? Will this have any impact on Concubine Chun's body and the fetus in her belly?"
