Yu Sui's time travel this time was indeed more difficult than her previous ones. She only had a rough grasp of the palace affairs, and she was busy all day and night during the annual festivals. It turned out that being a queen was not a job for ordinary people.

Each of the four maids assigned to her by Kangxi had something to do. If they had not completed most of her workload, she would have been even busier.

After the Chinese New Year, she followed the emperor to Nanyuan. Not long after she came back, Concubine Uya of Yonghe Palace gave birth to the seventh daughter of the emperor. Perhaps the daughter was not well taken care of in the womb, and was as weak as her brother, the Sixth Prince. The seventh daughter of the emperor died before autumn.

Wu Ya cried so hard that she went on hunger strike several times, wanting to follow her daughter. It was only after the emperor consoled her several times that Depin changed her mind. However, all this had little to do with Yu Suisui, because she was pregnant and was taking care of the baby.

Kangxi was surprised and happy about his cousin's pregnancy. If she was lucky enough, it would be a daughter.

Cining Palace

"Emperor." The Empress Dowager turned the bracelet around and looked down. This bracelet was given by the Imperial Concubine. She had been humble and polite for seven or eight years since she entered the palace. She was filial to her superiors, served the Emperor attentively, and was tolerant to her subordinates. She was destined to be a Queen.

Kangxi paused, "Madam, I know. When three months have passed, I will ask Yao Yuanzheng to take charge of Tong Jia's pulse." As long as it's a daughter, everything will be fine. If it's a son, if it's a son...

"I know you are a kind-hearted person. If it is a son, an old woman like me will take care of it. The Qing Dynasty cannot be in chaos, and the position of the prince must be stable." The century-old foundation of the ancestors cannot be destroyed in her hands.

Kangxi nodded.

Yu Suisui had no idea about this. It was not until November when Kangxi suddenly changed her imperial physician that she knew this was the beginning of the original owner's daughter's early death. However, for safety reasons, Yu Suisui took the medicine she had specially bought in advance.

When Kangxi and the Empress Dowager got the exact news, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Mrs. Tong, who was outside the palace, had a look of worry on her face since the moment her daughter became pregnant. But now she handed a sign in for no reason, asking her daughter to look at her expression, and she was also worried about affecting her daughter.

I had no choice but to go to the temple every day to pray for Buddha’s blessing.

"You pay incense money to the temple every day. How much wealth does your family have to support you like this?" Tong Guowei heard from his concubine that the lady had paid incense money of one or two thousand taels every time she paid incense to the temple this month. It is likely that she had paid out twenty or thirty thousand taels. The money in the palace was fixed, and if she spent it, the concubines in the backyard would have to reduce their spending.

Mrs. Tong was in a bad mood recently, and she immediately yelled at her husband: "You have more than one daughter, Sui Yatou, so of course you don't feel sorry for her. All you see all day long are those charming concubines in the backyard and those coquettish and foolish concubines. How can you remember that you have a daughter waiting to die in the palace? Are you hoping that Sui Yatou will die so that you can send your concubine who pleases you into the palace to replace me, Sui Yatou?"

Is it or isn't it? Master, you are so cruel? Your precious daughter said she didn't want it, but you lost your mind for some shallow-minded little girls and bitches!" After saying that, she collapsed on the chair and cried loudly, without any manners of a legitimate wife.

After being told this by his wife, Tong Guowei also blamed those concubines for their nonsense. Since the wife brought back the news from the palace last year, he and his elder brother had not given up. They called Yu Jie'er back to ask about it. Only then did they know that Yue Le had killed several legitimate children of his wife Borjigit for the sake of his concubine Zhang. The first two legitimate children were already in their teens and about to become adults, but Yue Le killed them without any hesitation, without any father-son affection at all.

This matter was slowly discovered by Yu Jie'er's mother-in-law, Yue Le's second wife Hesheli, after she caught Zhang's handle on the day of Malhun's first wife's delivery. Unfortunately, neither Borjigit nor the child was saved.

Her mother-in-law told her all this when she got married, and told her to be careful. As for why Zhang was not promoted, it was because she was born a brothel girl. Although it was a cover-up, the concubine had been suppressing her. As long as Yue Le dared to promote her, she would immediately go to the clan to sue her son for murdering his wife and son.

Before the concubine went there, the positions in Yue Le's backyard had already been filled, and everyone had children. Everyone was against Zhang, and even with Yue Le's protection, there were still some places that could not be taken care of.

After hearing this, the two brothers Tong Guowei, who had been hoping for the best, had to admit that the Aisin-Gioro family was different from them. No matter how cruel they were, even if Orondei wanted to beat him to death, Tong Guogang would not kill his legitimate son himself.

"It's my fault, please forgive me, Madam." Although Tong Guowei liked his concubine more, he still respected his wife who gave birth to three legitimate sons and one legitimate daughter.

Mrs. Tong wiped her tears, her eyes red, "I hope the master can take care of my sister Sui a little more in the future, and don't let the women in the backyard get carried away and come to settle accounts with me."

Tong Guowei was embarrassed and coughed, "No, I will never come to you for these things again." Those women were talking nonsense, so he didn't misunderstand Fu Jin.

Mrs. Tong didn't say anything. She felt much better after crying. She hoped that everything was fine with her daughter.

Yu Suisui had a good pregnancy life. Because the emperor was relieved and worried about her, he came to see her every few days. The Fourth Prince also saw her more often and sometimes even had meals together.

"Yinzhen should go to the study next year, so you will have time to take care of the child yourself after you give birth to him." Kangxi has recently thought carefully about the teacher for his fourth son. Now that he only has a few children, of course he has to treat them well.

Yu Suisui ate a red date before saying, "Cousin, have you chosen a teacher?"

"We're already selecting. I'll tell you when it's decided." Kangxi was in a good mood, so everything else was easy to discuss.

"Okay, but cousin, I may not be able to take care of the New Year's affairs this year. Concubine Niu will be out of confinement in about ten days. Can you let her take charge of this year's New Year's affairs?" Kangxi was not willing to hand over the important matters of the New Year's affairs to Concubine Hui. He liked his son, the eldest prince, but he also disliked Concubine Hui's status as a bondservant who lowered the status of his precious eldest son.

As a result, the emperor chose Concubine Rong to raise the prince with Concubine Hui, who clearly had an eldest son. Concubine Rong's family background was not good, but at least she was born in the Manchu banner, not a bondservant.

"It's fine to hand it over to Nianhulu, but she is young and inexperienced after all, so ask Ma Jia to assist us." Kangxi thought about it and decided that this would be the best approach.

"Just listen to your cousin. Now it's his turn to read to our little princess." Yu Suisui handed the Three Character Classic to Kangxi. Now was a good time for a nap.

Kangxi took the book and began to read. This was his first time reading a prenatal education book.

In June, Yu Sui gave birth to the original owner's daughter, a fair and tender little princess. The remaining half of the stone in Kangxi's heart fell to the ground. It was impossible to be completely accurate in the first place, and it could only be accurate after the baby was born.

The rewards from the harem and Emperor Kangxi added to Yu Suisui's private treasury. If she saved more, she might be able to save up a considerable fortune for her daughter.

Yinzhen was relieved in the prince's residence. He had been worried recently that his mother would not want him anymore because she had a biological prince. Now that he had a younger sister, it was nothing. He knew from a young age that his mother was his adoptive mother and his biological mother was Concubine De. However, he rarely saw her after she had the sixth prince. When he saw her every ten days, she would hold the sixth prince in her arms and say that he was his real brother and that he should take care of the sixth prince.

"Brother, would you like to go back to Chengqian Palace to see the princess after school?" Su Peisheng knew what the brother was worried about, and he was worried too.

Yinzhen nodded and said, "Go find the safety lock in my box and I'll bring it back to my sister later."

"That is a birthday gift specially given to you by the emperor." Su Peisheng was surprised. That was warm jade. The prince treasured it very much and kept it in a box.

"Just go find it." Yinzhen himself didn't have any good things. Some of the things allocated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were not as good as those given by my mother. He couldn't give the things given by my mother to his sister.

When Yu Suisui received this gift, he thought, "Forget it, just give it to your daughter." Then he asked He Laixi to find some fine pens, ink, paper, and inkstone and a piece of mutton-fat jade from his private storehouse and give them to Yinzhen.

Products from a private warehouse must be of the highest quality. The original owner gave all of them to the Fourth Prince, and now she plans to keep most of them for her daughter.

On August 27, Yipin gave birth to the ninth prince Yinzhen, and had two sons. Yipin finally became Yifei on the full moon day, and the position of concubine was vacant. Yu Sui thought about Kangxi's true love in the past few years, and she decided to promote him to a higher position.

"Cousin, Nala gave birth to two sons for you. She should have been promoted to concubine long ago. But she was not happy about the death of two little princes in succession. She is old now and has been in the palace for ten years. It would be better to promote her to concubine so that she can adopt a child of a lower-ranking concubine in the future to have a guarantee." Kangxi's true love now is Concubine Yi, Wei, Uya, Zhangjia, and Wanliuha, but not Nala. As a result, the other two Nala women in the harem also lost Kangxi's favor.

Kangxi nodded. After all, she was the woman he once truly loved. If he adopted a child after he gained a position in the future, she would surely not be immersed in the pain of losing a child anymore.

"I'll ask someone to tell her today. By the way, my cousin Concubine Hui said that she wanted to move Concubine Wei's position, saying that she had at least given birth to a prince for the emperor. I refused. This was agreed upon when the rules were set. If we break them rashly, then everyone in the harem will want to try it out, which will not be good. However, I asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send some things to Concubine Wei as compensation." The wool comes from the sheep, so she won't feel sorry for it if it's not hers.

"You did the right thing. You can't break the rules casually." Kangxi thought about Wei. He liked her, but there was no order without rules. It was better for her to stick to her duties. He didn't know how to persuade Nara to help her.

Of the original four concubines, only Depin Uya is left, but she gives birth quickly enough, so it should be soon.

By the 24th year, the Sixth Prince still died. Uya had lost her son and went on a hunger strike again to accompany her son. Kangxi went back and forth for half a month before he finally persuaded Depin, who was about to commit suicide. Before she could even complete the 49th day after her son's death, Depin became pregnant again.

No one in the harem could see it, but Kangxi knew about Uya's little thoughts, but Uya was just trying to please him, so Kangxi pretended not to know.

However, this time, Uya was uncomfortable with her pregnancy, so she asked the empress dowager to keep the ninth daughter by her side. She had been pregnant several times in the past few years, and had to take care of the children, so her health had deteriorated a lot, and this time she had to stay in bed to take care of the baby.

Uya hoped to give birth to another prince, but things did not go as she wished. She gave birth to a daughter. According to the rules, she could have made another move, but Kangxi despised her for giving birth to three daughters in a row and did not promote her, using the excuse that he was afraid that she was not blessed enough.

Uya had no choice but to adopt the 13th prince, who was born to concubine Zhangjia who lived behind her. Unexpectedly, after raising the child for a few months, she found out that she was pregnant. In the 27th year, she gave birth to the 14th prince.

Kangxi took the opportunity to promote Uya to the throne, but Uya had not been Kangxi's favorite concubine since the past two years. He recently liked the gentle Wang, and even gave her a Han army flag. Of course, he still remembered his old loves Yifei and Zhangjia.
