After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

"Is what Fourth Sister-in-law said true?"

Xiyu came to Wenyuan Pavilion and told Yunran everything Yinzhen had said. Yunran was immediately excited and stood up from his seat.

"Be humble and cautious, you forgot again."

Concubine De leaned on the chaise longue and gave a reminder.

"Oh." Yun Ran sat back in his seat obediently, and a new worry arose. "But the emperor must have his own considerations in his mind. How can we convince him?"

De Fei gently waved the round fan in her hand, with a faint smile on her lips, "Perhaps there is no need to persuade him at all. We just need to let the emperor know that choosing Gorlos Sukhbaru will be more beneficial to the Qing Dynasty and will also allow his beloved daughter to stay in the capital."

"The emperor's heart is the same as mine. If they could choose, which parent would want their daughter to marry far away?"

"We just need to give a little help, you don't have to worry about this matter."

Now that their mother had spoken, the two of them felt relieved.

Sure enough, three days later, Kangxi issued an edict granting marriage, naming his seventh daughter, Aisin-Gioro Yunran, as Princess Heshuo Jingxian, and marrying her to a member of the Gorlos tribe of the Khorchin tribe. The wedding date was set for the end of next year.

However, although the construction of the princess's mansion had begun, there was no clear decree to get married in the mansion, nor did it say who the bride would be.

In other words, there is still a possibility of marrying far away.

The Queen Mother was worried and went to Kangxi's residence in person.

As soon as she entered the room, before she even sat down, she asked, "Emperor, this matter has already been discussed, why is it different from what was said before? You don't really want my little daughter to marry far away in Mongolia, do you?"

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to just choose the tribal leader of Gorlos? I'm old now and don't want to get involved in the affairs of the court. I just want to keep Xiaoqi by my side."

Perhaps because she came in a hurry, the Queen Mother's breathing was a little rapid and her chest was heaving violently.

Kangxi quickly stood up and walked forward to calm the empress dowager down.

"Madam, please sit down and have some tea. Something happened with the Gorlos tribe. There was a conflict between the prince consort and his brother, and things are tense."

"If I grant the marriage directly, this Gorlos Sukhbaru might not live to get married next year, so what's the point of this marriage?"

"This is also to confuse the Gorlos tribe, making them think that I want to marry my daughter to their tribal leader. When I go on a tour outside the Great Wall next year, if the prince consort is fine, I will bring him back with me."

The Queen Mother took the tea brought by Liang Jiugong and her breathing became much smoother.

She sighed deeply, "The emperor is indeed thoughtful. I almost did something bad with good intentions."

Kangxi followed her words and said, "The Empress Dowager is also confused because of her concern."

The Queen Mother dealt with Xiao Qi's problem, and then she noticed that the Emperor's face was getting sunken due to weight loss.

"You are busy with official duties, so I will go back first. Just don't forget to eat. You have lost weight in the past few days."

"Thank you for your concern, Madam."

Kangxi stood up to see her off, stood at the door and watched her slightly staggering figure disappear from his sight, then returned to the dragon throne and sat down, reopening the memorial.

Liang Jiugong took a few steps forward and reminded in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, you have been reading memorials for nearly three hours. It's time to take a break."

Kangxi stopped what he was doing, and without any disgust on his face, he continued:

"Since the Crown Prince was punished, the time you spend sitting on the throne has almost doubled. Not to mention the Queen Mother, even I, who follow you all day, can see that you have lost a lot of weight. I am so heartbroken."

Kangxi picked up the memorial in his hand and patted Liang Jiugong's hat, "What life or death? How dare you speak without restraint in front of me?"

Liang Jiugong raised his hand and slapped his lips, then knelt on the ground with a frown on his face.

"Oh, I said the wrong thing, but seeing you getting thinner day by day, I am really distressed."

Seeing his funny look, Kangxi laughed and threw the letter in his hand on the table, "I don't want to punish you, serve the meal."

The people in the imperial kitchen had been waiting, and when they heard the meal was served, they put all the food on the table in just a quarter of an hour.

In order to prevent the masters from feeling greasy in the summer, the food is cooked with less oil and salt, and even the color is not as good as in other seasons.

Kangxi looked at the dull colors on the table and suddenly felt a little bored.

Just as he was about to put down his chopsticks, Liang Jiugong suddenly brought over a green glass cup.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Yu heard that you often have a poor appetite, so she specially learned how to make this Seven Green Soup. The servants just brought it over."

When the green cup is opened, the food inside becomes colorful and the aroma goes straight into the nose.

Kangxi was slightly startled, lowered his eyes for a long time, and then a deep laugh escaped from his throat, "Yupin is thoughtful, and you know that I like to eat this when my appetite is poor."

He picked up the spoon and took a few bites. He felt the fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth, and the taste was very familiar.

"Where did she learn this dish? Many chefs in the imperial kitchen can't make it taste this good, and few dare to cook it for me."

Liang Jiugong said hesitantly, "I heard that... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew that you had a poor appetite, so he sent the cook from his small kitchen here, and Concubine Yu followed him to learn for more than half a month."

"Baocheng?"

Kangxi glanced at Liang Jiugong and said, "He is beating around the bush. Doesn't he want me to know that it was his idea to cook this dish?"

He was silent for a long time, and then ate all the Seven Green Soup in the glazed green cup.

"According to the time, the three-month confinement of the Crown Prince is almost up."

Liang Jiugong stepped forward and replied, "Your Majesty, there are still three days."

"He has such a heart, which means my love for him is not in vain. I will issue an order to end the Crown Prince's house arrest in advance, and then I will take some precious medicinal herbs from my private storehouse to send to the Crown Princess. If she is still able to travel, I will allow the couple to come to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat together."

"If you still can't get out of bed, the prince will stay in Yuqing Palace to accompany Fu Jin."

"The legitimate wife is still pregnant, but she has been confined to her room with him for three months. If he doesn't stay away from the baby, he will be unworthy of being a husband."

Kangxi said these last words in a very low voice, so that no one could hear it except Liang Jiugong.

After lunch, Kangxi returned to the dragon throne and sat down, but he couldn't calm down.

He turned his head and asked Liang Jiugong, "Has it been a long time since I last saw Yupin?"

Liang Jiugong thought for a while and responded, "It has been nearly two months since the last time."

Kangxi lowered his eyes, thinking of the familiar face of Yupin, and stood up by supporting the dragon chair, "She has worked hard for half a month to prepare meals for me, and it is time for me to go see her."

Normally, he didn't think anything of it when he didn't see Concubine Yu, but once he saw her, he would always think of her after each sleep with her.

For half a month, he stayed at Concubine Yu's place.
