The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Under Yinzhen's strong urging, the date for conferring the title of the first wife was set before December, and the ceremony was held quickly. Otherwise, if it was delayed until December, it would not be good for the end of the year. If it was delayed until next year, it would take even longer.

That day, the children all got up early, and before Changning entered the palace, one of them gave her a gift, which surprised her a little.

Yi Erha gave Changning a set of twelve handkerchiefs that she had embroidered herself. The fabric was soft and the patterns were ingenious, and Changning liked them very much. In addition, there was also a rabbit fur headband, which was fluffy and white, and looked warm.

What Hutuli gave was a wooden sculpture she had carved herself. She got inspiration from the wooden hairpin with jade flowers that Mengguqing had given to Changning. She carved a Ruyi with her own hands, hoping that everything would go well for her mother in the future.

Changning looked at the round and fat thing in his hand for a long time to identify it, and guessed it was a watermelon from a peach. Finally, it was revealed by the angry Hutu that it was actually a persimmon.

What Hongyan presented was a painting he had created in a month called "Quiet Waterside Pavilion", which was a scene of the Old Summer Palace.

In Hongzhao's hand was his favorite jasper frog paperweight. This paperweight was carved from jasper, and the frog was lying on a lotus leaf with its belly exposed. It looked very vivid and interesting. He looked at it for a long time before giving this beloved item to his mother.

What Changning didn't expect was that Honghui also prepared a gift, which was a pot of daffodils grown in a conch pot. In winter, it was rare to see such beautiful flowers, and smelling their sweet scent made even her mood better.

"There are daffodils blooming so beautifully in winter." Changning couldn't hold Honghui's hand like she did when they were little, because he was grown up and had maids in his room. She could only smile at him to show that she liked him very much.

After receiving the gifts from the children, Changning entered the palace with Yinzhen. It would be a long day today.

The various cumbersome etiquettes in the palace made her a little dizzy, but fortunately she was not a concubine or a noble concubine, and the etiquette nowadays was relatively simple, and she just had to kowtow everywhere.

In Yonghe Palace, Fourteenth Prince and his wife Wanyan had already been waiting.

De Fei looked at Chang Ning, who was wearing the auspicious clothes of the prince's wife, and smiled, and took off a pair of jade bracelets from her wrists: "Now it's all right, you two should treat each other as equals, and everything will go smoothly in the future."

Changning took the jade bracelet and said with a smile: "Thank you, mother."

Defei nodded. She had watched Fucha rise all the way. Originally, she liked Ulanara as her daughter-in-law. She was good at understanding the overall situation and was decent. Unfortunately, she had a bad fate and would not live long. Now she had to take care of Honghui more so that she could feel more at ease. This also fulfilled the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law.

However, Defei also knew in her heart that the real mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship now was between her and Fucha.

She remained expressionless, thinking that there should have been no previous disagreements between her and her daughter-in-law.

She has never been good at interfering too much in her son's backyard affairs. Even though she is his biological mother, she did not raise him by her side since he was a child. If she interferes too much, it will be bad.

The Song family only tried to get in a few times, but it never happened again after that.

She really loves Hutuli Hongyan and Hongzhao. Speaking of the children, it would be good to raise Fucha for the sake of their status.

"Are the children all right? It's cold these two days, don't let them run around, be careful of catching cold." When Defei talked about her grandchildren, her heart was filled with love.

Chang Ning replied after he sat down: "Don't worry, mother. They are all like little monkeys, very tough, but they are all obedient. Now they are studying in the study room. The prince is watching them personally, and no one dares to be lazy."

De Fei nodded and said, "It's almost the New Year. Bring all the children out for me to see. Mother is old now, and she will be happy to see a house full of grandchildren."

Wanyan smiled and continued, "Mother, if you say so now, you will be in trouble when these children arrive!"

Concubine De laughed out loud because of her amusement: "That's a good thing too."

Fourteen had already come up to him, nudged his fourth brother's shoulder, and asked in a low voice: "Fourth brother, do you want me to talk to you about the cashier matter at the Ministry of Revenue?"

Ever since Yinzhen was conferred the title of prince and Fourteenth was conferred the title of Beizi, he has been restless. They are brothers, so why are there such huge differences in their titles?

So Yinzhen was about to go to the Old Summer Palace, so he handed over the cash collection matters of the Ministry of Revenue to him and the Thirteenth Brother. As for the Seventh Brother, he helped Changhua to monitor the promotion of cowpox.

As the saying goes, follow the right boss and you will have meat to eat.

All the brothers got jobs and were very happy.

The fifth brother was so anxious that he was spinning in circles. He also wanted to eat meat with his fourth brother. Even if he couldn’t eat meat, he could at least drink the soup!

But Guo Luoluo and his mother had offended his fourth brother before, so now he could only try to please them slowly.

After hearing what Fourteen said, Yinzhen rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

If you are confused, you cannot distinguish between time and place.

Wanyan also secretly cursed Fourteenth Brother for being a blockhead. It was obvious that he came today to celebrate for Fourth Sister-in-law. Didn't he see how much effort Fourth Brother had put in to make Fourth Sister-in-law his legal wife? He didn't know how many memorials he had submitted to the Qianqing Palace alone.

Just when the fourth sister-in-law was being crowned with great fanfare, he insisted that this job was annoying and useless!

Wanyan cursed inwardly and then quickly changed the subject.

"Fourth sister-in-law, are Hongxu and the other two going to turn things around now?"

Chang Ning smiled and replied: "I can turn it, but I'm not very good at it yet."

Wanyan couldn't stop praising him: "That's amazing too. My son didn't turn over until he was over six months old. I was so anxious. Fortunately, the nanny next to me was given by my mother and had experience, so I didn't panic. Fourth sister-in-law raised the child well. I went there the other day and saw that the child in Hutuli was enthusiastic and steady. He really has the demeanor of our Manchu aunt."

Speaking of Hutuli, Concubine De's expression changed: "I heard that Hutuli brought a few girls to hold a small banquet in the garden a few days ago?"

Chang Ning nodded: "That's right, it's the snow that this girl collected from the plum blossoms with great effort. I heard that it's the most elegant to make tea. I was planning to bring you a jar of it, but I haven't had time to enter the palace yet."

Concubine De laughed in silence: "It's hard for her to come up with these tricks."

They chatted and laughed for a while before Changning and Yinzhen left.

Fourteen and Wanyan followed closely behind.

Looking at the fourteenth old man following him around, Yinzhen was furious. He turned around and shouted in a low voice: "Why are you in such a hurry? Come to my house tomorrow to talk."

Fourteen had no choice but to put the matter aside, and the two groups parted at the palace gate.

Back in the main courtyard, as soon as Changning entered the house, she immediately had people take off her clothes and jewelry. She must be exhausted after wearing them for a whole day.

"Master, the water is ready."

"Okay, okay, let me go to the bathroom first."

Yinzhen laughed at her anxious look and said, "Why didn't you go to the bathroom in the palace? Have you been holding it in all the way?"

"It's just that the cup of tea I drank in the palace has gone cold!"
