The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Yinzhen was a monarch with great courage after all. He ordered the reopening of the maritime ban and the suppression of commerce in order to develop the economy with all his strength. He also ordered the Fourteenth Prince to continue fighting Japan. If he failed to defeat Japan, he would not have to return to Beijing.

Changning originally thought that the Fourteenth Master would come back during the Chinese New Year, but it was delayed for who knows how many years. She thought that the Fourteenth Master would definitely be dissatisfied, and perhaps the Queen Mother also felt sorry for her son.

So when she went to the Cining Palace, she had already thought about how to comfort the Empress Dowager. Her Fourteenth Uncle was at the age when he should make great plans. He had high aspirations and naturally hoped to achieve results. Although he could not return to Beijing, his rewards and condolences to the soldiers would definitely not be reduced.

But when she arrived at the Cining Palace, she did not see how sad the empress dowager was. She only saw her smiling happily in the room with Concubine Cheng and others who came to the palace to visit her.

Ah this...

Seeing Changning coming, the Queen Mother waved to her: "Come and sit here, my dear child. It's hard for you to come to see me even though it's so cold outside."

After she summoned Changning, she turned around and said proudly to Concubine Cheng: "Look at my daughter-in-law, she is the most polite, she is a good queen, and she teaches the children well."

Concubine Cheng was already very old, but when Changning looked at her, she seemed to have gained some weight, and her complexion was better than when she was in the palace.

I guess it must be because she finally left the Forbidden City and felt more comfortable living in her son's mansion.

Before, Concubine Cheng had always been dependent on the Queen Mother, and the two of them had some friendship. Now her smile was particularly kind and sincere: "If you ask me, you are good at choosing people. This Queen is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. The Queen Mother is really blessed!

My son's eldest daughter got along very well with the Second Princess. She always complained to me when she came back that she wanted to go to the palace to play, saying that the Second Princess was a rare and straightforward person.

The Queen Mother smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Hutuli is indeed a good child. Seeing that Yierha will be married next year, looking at this beautiful girl, it is inevitable to make plans for Hutuli. According to my selfishness, this child likes to play, so I'd better keep him for two more years."

Chang Ning nodded and said, "I have also mentioned this to the Emperor. Hutuli is still young, so it won't matter if he is chosen as a prince consort later."

"This prince consort must be a man of noble character, loyal and capable, and also kind to others. I think the kind-hearted person from the Guwalgiya clan is a good one, and she is a good match for Yierha. The emperor has good taste. It is a blessing for Yierha and Hutuli to have such a father." The empress dowager said with a smile.

Since the Queen Mother mentioned the princess' marriage, Concubine Cheng smiled even more happily: "Yes, yes, I also think Fashan is a good child. This girl of mine is honest and straightforward. I am most afraid of meeting someone with evil intentions and being deceived by her. If I marry her closer, I can support her, right?"

The Queen Mother's smile remained unchanged, but Changning heard something off-screen.

Concubine Cheng was hinting at this. She heard that the 49 Mongolian tribes would come to Beijing at the end of this year, and she was afraid that her eldest granddaughter would go to Mongolia.

Changning understood in her heart that Concubine Cheng came to the palace to get clarification and ask for mercy from the Empress Dowager.

But the empress dowager could not agree to it on her behalf. After all, she did not interfere in court affairs. Although she could still talk to Yinzhen, and the relationship between mother and son was not as bad as written in history books, she was unwilling to offend her son for others.

But if she ignored it completely, the Queen Mother would feel embarrassed to completely reject Cheng Dowager.

Just as she came over, the Queen Mother let out a hint to see if Changning had any intentions.

Changning knew that ever since the Mongols were planning to come, all the royal family members and those who had daughters were nervous.

Seeing how much the emperor dotes on the princesses, it is impossible for him to let them go to Meng.

Needless to say, the eldest princess has already stayed in Beijing. Needless to say, the second princess is Princess Gulun Taihe. Not to mention the Qing Dynasty, even in the previous dynasties, how could a title be named after a royal palace?

How important this is.

If she wasn't a princess, I'm afraid someone would have asked to establish a prince.

The remaining three princesses and the fourth princess were only two or three years old, which made it even more impossible.

Then who can be cannon fodder?

They must be princesses of the royal family, the emperor’s nieces!

But Changning knew that since Mengguqing and Wenkedunke gradually took control of Mongolia's discourse power, the Qing Dynasty's control over Mongolia had become very large.

Naturally, there is no need to force a marriage between the Manchus and the Mongols.

If it is a marriage alliance, the prince from Mongolia can also be allowed to live in the capital.

So Chang Ning smiled and replied: "Don't worry too much, Concubine. There will always be a way out. The eldest princess is lucky. I think she will live a happy life and won't worry Mama."

Hearing what the Queen said, Concubine Cheng was overjoyed. She was so old that she almost cried with excitement. The Queen Mother quickly supported her and said, "Okay, okay, Sister Cheng is so happy. I just hope that your eldest princess will be safe and sound in the future."

Concubine Cheng nodded repeatedly and looked at Changning with gratitude. She wanted to say something but couldn't open her mouth. She was already trying hard to hold back her tears. If she opened her mouth, she would probably burst into tears.

Changning felt a little sad, and Concubine Cheng was also very kind-hearted.

After coming out of the Cining Palace, Changning breathed a sigh of relief.

I still need to be nicer to my children in the future...

I can’t beat Hongchen anymore…

Hutuli peeked at her own notebook and didn't say anything about her...

After late autumn, forty-nine Mongolian tribes marched into Beijing in great numbers.

"Mother! Mother! I heard that many people have come from Mongolia, including quite a few princes and dukes, is that right?" Hong Zhao has been particularly excited since he heard the news.

Chang Ning looked at him with amusement: "Yeah, what's wrong?"

Hong Zhao's eyes lit up: "Then, is Na Ritai here too?"

"Na Ritai?" Chang Ning looked at his expectant eyes, paused for a moment, pretended to be embarrassed, and shook his head, "It seems not!"

"Ah? That shouldn't be the case! She wrote me a letter the other day, saying that she wanted to beg Abu to come to the capital to have a look."

Hong Zhao scratched his head. What was going on?

Just when he felt a little disappointed, he saw his mother covering her mouth and laughing. He immediately understood and shouted, "Ahhh! Mother, you lied to me!"

Chang Ning laughed: "It was just a joke. Who told you to be so gullible? Hong Zhao, you must remember not to be so naive!"

Hong Zhao curled his lips and muttered, "What? It's obvious that only my mother would lie to me!"

Changning smiled, this silly boy.

However, this year Yinzhen did not go to Mulan Qiumi as he did in previous years. Instead, he invited Mongolian nobles to come to the capital, presumably with the intention of showing off the country's power.

Today, the Qing Dynasty is no longer the same as it used to be. It has won successive victories against both Dzungar and Japan. The morale of the people is unprecedentedly high. Coupled with the opening up to business, the country is in a thriving scene.

What needs to be strengthened now is Mongolia’s fear of the Qing Dynasty and the economic trade between Mongolia and the capital.
