Changning was a little suspicious.

This was the time when the country was about to change hands. Where did this master come from?

That doesn't sound plausible.

She decided to send a message to her eldest brother to pay more attention to it. However, at present, her eldest brother was busy promoting cowpox, her second brother was training troops and deploying defenses, and her third brother was collecting arrears at the Ministry of Revenue. They were all very busy.

She had a feeling that this was definitely not a trivial matter and she had to pay close attention to it.

Then, this matter was reported back to Fucha Mansion by her in a letter. She also asked Tingfeng to contact some people and pay attention to the movements of the fortune tellers in the capital. She also asked them to report to her every detail of what happened every day.

At this time, Hutuli still didn't know why her mother's expression suddenly became serious. She just thought it was very interesting. Is there really someone who can see through other people's fate?

Chang Ning knew she was curious, so he said seriously, "Whether one has a destiny or not is determined by nature, but it can also be controlled by human effort. If it could be so easily seen through, wouldn't the world be in chaos? It's not a good thing to forcibly interfere with the cause and effect of others."

Changning remembered that it was Zhang Mingde in history who said to the Eighth Prince that "Mei" was "the Great Eighth Prince" and that he would ascend the throne in the future, which made Kangxi furious.

Hutuli understood and nodded quickly. Yierha quickly changed the subject: "This smell is coming over here, it smells so good! Fourth brother is really good!"

Hong Zhao heard it and shouted: "Don't worry, big sister! It will be done soon!"

As he was talking, he had already grilled a handful of sizzling lamb skewers. They were crispy and tender, sprinkled with cumin and chili powder. They were indeed very fragrant. Chang Ning was shocked: "Son, you have this skill? How come mother didn't know about it?"

Hong Zhao smiled and said proudly: "Of course! My brother, Zhi Huai and I often go out to barbecue together."

Honghui had a weak stomach, but seeing the golden and crispy mutton, he tried a piece and praised it endlessly: "Hongzhao, your cooking skills are really good."

After receiving so much praise from so many people, Hong Zhao felt a little embarrassed. He scratched his head, turned around and ran back to continue grilling. This time he was even more excited and even shouted that he would grill again for his father when he came back.

Hongzhao was grilling the meat with great enthusiasm. Seeing that he was sweating profusely, Hongyan couldn't bear it, so he rolled up his sleeves and went over to help his brother. Eunuch Ma followed closely behind the young master to help.

Hutuli chuckled: "I didn't expect Hong Zhao to love cooking so much?"

Hong Zhao heard his sister making fun of him again, and hurriedly said in defense: "No way! Brother Zhihuai said that barbecue is essential on the battlefield in the future! I am preparing to become a general in the future!"

Yierha heard him calling him Brother Zhihuai all the time and knew that he was a foreign man. She was curious but too embarrassed to ask in detail.

Honghui had some impression of Chen Zhihuai. After all, his two younger brothers were often with him and they had met occasionally. They had also met each other that night at Mulan Paddock. This was a man with great ambitions and great martial arts skills. This was Honghui's impression of him.

The barbecue continued until the sun set, and the children finally had enough fun. Since Yinzhen was not around, Changning took charge.

"Today is a day for you to relax. You don't have to study. But starting tomorrow, you will be checked on your homework. Don't think you can be lazy just because your father is not here. I will also ask the master about your homework every day."

Hongchen curled his lips. He hated sitting down to read and write. It would be great if he could go out and shake his fists with his fourth brother! He could only curl his lips when he heard this.

Hongmin was a literary person. He liked his third brother Hongyan the most because in his eyes, apart from his father, his third brother was the most knowledgeable and powerful person.

As for Hongyang, he now reads nursery rhymes and poems with Changning every day.

Hutuli and Yierha didn't have to worry about their studies. But Changning still called the nanny over to ask about the two girls.

Unexpectedly, although everything was fine in Hutuli, there was some problem in Yierhana.

According to the nanny, the eldest princess is a little aroused.

The reason was that they discovered that the eldest princess was reading miscellaneous books such as "Romance of the West Chamber" and secretly embroidered a handkerchief with the pattern of mandarin ducks.

Although Changning felt that this book was most likely secretly given to Yierha by his daughter.

Yi Erha grew up under her care and was deeply influenced by Fu Jin. How should I put it? Her words and deeds were influenced by her and she had to use strict standards to demand herself. Whose little girl's ordinary activities are copying Buddhist scriptures and picking up Buddhist rice? In Chang Ning's eyes, those are activities that only old ladies can do.

Yi Erha, who is so serious, could think of reading "Romance of the West Chamber"? "Rules for Women" and "Instructions for Women" are more suitable.

She may not even know what "Romance of the West Chamber" is.

After all, Fu Jin never paid attention to her poetry and books.

It must be that Hutuli saw that she was bored and secretly shared his books with her. After all, there were too many messy travel notes and storybooks in Hutuli, and Changning never restricted her reading or her thoughts. She was free, especially in her thoughts.

So Changning knew what was going on when she heard it. Looking at the two maids' serious expressions, Changning knew that in the eyes of the maids, this was a very serious incident. What did it mean to be in love? It meant that this princess was likely to do something big that would harm the royal family in the future. Her thoughts were unhealthy and must be corrected in time.

But Changning thought, which girl doesn't have love in her heart? Moreover, she and Yinzhen knew Yi Erha's character very well. She would not do those rebellious behaviors. It was probably just that she had some feelings from reading books.

In addition, the mansion was strictly controlled. Except for following Changning to the Old Summer Palace or the farm, Yierha had almost never left the mansion, let alone meeting other men.

She has never seen a foreign man.

Changning asked the two maids to stay calm and not say anything nonsense to the eldest princess, and left the matter to her.

Changning thought that Yierha probably knew about her marriage. Both Ulanara and Yinzhen had chosen a matchmaker for her, and Song had also been informed.

When she is older, like fifteen next year, maybe we can let the two children meet and develop some relationship.

Speaking of age, the eldest son of the eldest brother, Duoxihun, is the same age as Yierha, and the eldest sister-in-law is also thinking about choosing a family for him, but the mother is not in a hurry yet. Now that Fucha is in a very hot situation, it is not certain that one can see clearly what is in her belly if one comes close. It will not be too late to wait until the child is one or two years older.

Changning also agreed.

After all, Kangxi only lived for a year or two.

When Yinzhen successfully ascends the throne, Fucha clan will be promoted to a higher level, and it will be better to wait and see then. Duoxi Hun is the eldest son of the next generation of Fucha clan, and is destined to shoulder the responsibility of the entire family. His marriage must not be sloppy.
