They were both noble ladies of the Fucha clan of the Manchu military banner.

Fang Jia of the Manchu military flag was granted the title of Changzai.

(In the original drama, Fang Chunyi entered the palace a few days earlier than Zhen Huan, but the original text said she was a Manchu military flag, but her name was Han military flag, so the author identified her as Fang Jiashi)

The Borjigit clan of the Mongolian military flag was conferred the title of noble lady.

Shen of the Han army flag was conferred the title of noble lady.

The Han army flag's Zhen family was a regular servant.

The Han army flag An family agreed.

Without that smile, Zhen Huan in this life made Yongzheng dislike her, so she lost her special title.

But after all, Zhen Yuandao was a fourth-rank official, so Yongzheng still gave her the position of Changzai.

Along with the imperial edict came a teaching nanny sent from the palace, but this time the one who went to the Zhen Mansion was not Fang Ruo, the golden finger that the emperor specially assigned to open a back door for Zhen Huan, but the nanny assigned to Xia Dongchun in the original drama.

Because of Concubine Hua's instructions, and the fact that she was asked to do it alone when it was clearly a job for two people, she was filled with resentment.

So when teaching the rules, she didn't say anything except some etiquette. She knew that if she did so, she might be punished if Zhen Huan made mistakes in the future, but money can move people's hearts, so she still agreed to Concubine Hua's request.

This also laid the groundwork for what happened on the day of his first audience with the Queen. Similarly, Shen Meizhuang received the same treatment.

Time flies and the New Year is approaching.

Because this year was the first year of Yongzheng's reign, the Imperial Household Department held a grand New Year banquet. Except for the Fourteenth Prince Yinzhen, who was far away in the northwest and was not welcomed and could not return to Beijing without being summoned, all of Kangxi's sons came.

On the day of the banquet, Yinqi, who was allowed not to wear the ceremonial dress but was still wrapped like a ball by Nanny Liu, had just walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony when he was seen by Prince Li Yunreng who was sitting in front of him.

While Prince Zhi Yunqi was still bickering with Prince Cheng Yunzhi, he quickly stepped forward and picked up Yinqi Qiu.

This made him feel like a gust of wind was blowing past him. He quickly turned around and slammed the table angrily.

I cursed the second brother in my heart, what a thief!

"Xiao Qi has grown taller and gained some weight"

Prince Li, who was happy to see Prince Zhi angry, relaxed his brows and shook Yin Qi with joy before carrying him back to his seat.

Prince Li's seat is the third on the right, because according to the rules, Yinqi's throne is the most honorable, and then the princes are ranked one by one according to their ages.

And according to the rules, it's not just about seats. Normally when Yinqi sees these brothers, they have to stand up and salute him according to their ranks.

Fortunately, since Kangxi figured it out, the relationships among his brothers have become much closer, except for Yinqi's third brother, Prince Cheng, who is more pedantic and everyone avoids him.

So when they saw him come in, everyone greeted him with a smile and did not stand up to salute as per the rules. Only Prince Cheng snorted softly, as he was embarrassed for being so different.

"After all, I'm six years old during the Chinese New Year."

It was not until he was placed on Prince Li's lap that Yinqi answered proudly in a baby voice, tilting his little head back, that he had grown ten centimeters this year.

Yinqi's look made Prince Li laugh out loud.

Looking at Prince Li who is now in a stable mood, Yinqi feels very relieved. Thinking back to the first time he saw Yunreng who was already a little crazy, that look was really heartbreaking. In his heart, he cursed Kangxi for being incompetent for the Nth time.

"Why are you here so late today?"

Prince Li liked this younger brother who was more than 40 years younger than him and could be his grandson from the first time he met him.

Especially when he thought about how Yin Qi's company with him that year helped him to clear his mind, and how Yin Qi would have people send all kinds of gifts to them brothers every few days in recent years, Prince Li's heart couldn't soften.

"I ran into the Queen's sedan chair on the way here, so I took a different route."

Yinqi said this close to Yunreng's ear, because the queen had already sat down.

Everyone present was used to the Queen's early arrival and her lack of bearing as a queen.

After all, as a queen who is not favored by the emperor and has just been released from prison, she can only use her status to make herself feel better.

Seeing the villain approaching, Prince Li also tilted his head in his direction, but when he heard Yinqi's words, he couldn't help laughing and touched his bald little forehead lovingly.

The Prince of Zhi, who already had half a head of white hair, felt that the intimacy between the two was an eyesore. He rolled his eyes and quickly found an excuse to attract Yinqi's attention, speaking jokingly.

"Why didn't Xiao Qi bring your child bride here today?"

"Uncle Gong sent a note yesterday asking about this, so Jinzhong went to Uncle Gong's house today to celebrate the New Year."

After all, Jinzhong is the adopted son of Prince Gong. Although Prince Gong is no longer with us, the palace is now headed by his son, Prince Gong. But after all, the old Prince Gong's wife is still there, so Jinzhong has to go and see his adoptive mother.

"I was thinking about meeting your precious sweetheart."

Prince Zhi shook his head with some regret.

"Brother, why are you in such a hurry? There will be plenty of opportunities later. Anyway, we won't be back until the end of the first month of the lunar year."

Speaking of who understands Prince Zhi the best, it must be Prince Li, who fought the most fiercely at the beginning and who understands this impatient elder brother the best.

Because they had some shipbuilding work to do, they only had the opportunity to return to Beijing during the New Year holidays. They had never had the chance to meet Jinzhong before for various reasons, so they were very curious about this child that Yinqi picked up and treated like his own eye.

"Hey, You……"

Prince Zhi's temper flared up when Prince Li interrupted his conversation with his beloved brother.

Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Yin Qi quickly spoke up to stop them.

"Then when I have time, I will take Jinzhong to visit Big Brother at his house."

"My younger brother often sees that child. He is a sensible child. He follows Xiaoqi without crying or making a fuss at such a young age. He is also very smart."

Upon seeing this, Prince Yi in the back row quickly spoke up to divert Prince Zhi's attention.

Speaking of which, few of Yinqi's brothers have ever seen Jinzhong, after all, he has always lived with Yinqi in Changqiu Palace.

Of course, this does not include Prince Yi and Prince Guo, who often entered the palace, and Prince Guo's little follower, Prince Shen. They had met each other a few times.

"Oh?"

As expected, Prince Nao turned around curiously.

"How old is the child?"

“I think he’s two and a half years old.”

"Only two and a half years old?"

He thought that the child was only one or two years younger than Yinqi.

"If my younger brother hadn't seen the child when he was a child, I would have thought that the child must be at least three years old. A few days ago, I saw the two of them going to pay their respects to the emperor. The child spoke clearly, walked steadily, and could even recite the Three Character Classic."

Not to mention others, even Prince Yi was surprised when he saw it.

"It seems that he will be smart in the future. He is qualified to follow Xiaoqi."

Upon hearing this, the prince nodded with satisfaction. He had previously thought that Jinzhong's status was too low, but now it seemed that if he was a talented person, he might be barely qualified.

"Speaking of followers, didn't the emperor say before that he would find Haha beads for Xiaoqi? How come I haven't seen any of them until today?"

As soon as Prince Zhi finished speaking, Prince Yi secretly said in his heart, this elder brother really brings up things that are not relevant.
