The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Half a month later, the war was almost over, but Kangxi unfortunately sprained his waist while riding a horse and had to retreat from the front line.

"I am really old!" He spoke in a low voice with a tremor, which frightened Liang Jiugong so much that he wanted to lower his head to the dust. He didn't want to respond, nor did he dare to respond. Until His Majesty needed to see the Blood Dropper (the emperor's exclusive power), he consciously withdrew. The cold and biting east wind hit his face, stirring up a series of gusts, and he slowly exhaled.

"How is the palace?"

The Blood-Guillotined King Commander, dressed in black, said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince did not make any move after hearing about your accident. However, Minister Longkodo has been recruiting more and more ministers in the court. More and more people in the court are turning to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince has no objection, except for the eldest prince's party, and a few people have no position."

Hearing this, Kangxi's chest rose and fell violently, and the muscles on his face trembled with anger. He suppressed his anger and said, "When I am not here, Longkodo is bullying and forming cliques for personal gain. How can I tolerate a villain like him!" In fact, he was more angry about the prince's inaction than Longkodo. He was injured, and the prince did not take any action, but he indulged Longkodo's misconduct! How can I allow others to snore beside my bed! The prince has overstepped the boundaries!

The angrier Kangxi got, the calmer he became. "Send someone to conduct a thorough investigation of Longkodo's residence. Even if you have to dig three feet underground, you must dig out everything for me!"

"As you command, Your Majesty." Commander Wang disappeared as silently as he had come.

At Prince Yong's Mansion, Yinzhen, who had received the news that his father was injured, pondered for a moment and said to Su Peisheng, "Pack your luggage and go to the border to visit your father immediately."

Su Peisheng was puzzled, "My Lord, aren't the eldest prince, the third prince, and the fourteenth prince all by His Majesty's side? Why do you have to go again?"

"The Emperor's injury is unusual. It's just a minor injury, but it has become a hot topic. There must be something fishy going on. I have to react!"

Su Peisheng said in panic: "It was my fault that I was so stupid. I almost delayed the master's important task!"

"You go to Fu Jin and explain it clearly first. I'm leaving first!" Yinzhen waved his hand, glanced reluctantly in the direction of Fu Jin's east courtyard, and went straight to the stable. He planned to ride to the border overnight.

By the time Rouyin found out, Yinzhen had already left for a while. She looked at the gorgeous plum blossoms blooming in the heavy snow at the door. The weather had changed. The prince...

Now there are only two princesses, Song and Li, in Prince Yong's mansion. Rouyin has no worries, but now there are more children, and the noise is giving her a headache. When the prince was still alive, she could still leave the two slightly older children to him, but now that he is gone, she has no choice but to take care of them herself.

The two older children chattered and taught the four younger brothers to call each other brother/sister. The children spoke their own language and no one could understand each other, but they were still having fun. Rouyin looked at these fat kids with amusement, but when she thought about how these four kids would learn to walk, she seemed to have imagined the annoyance that would come later.

When she gave birth to her first child, the empress dowager and the concubines actually wanted to visit the palace, but she happened to be pregnant with her second child, quadruplets, and they were too small, so they could not go to the palace. The children had grown a little during this period, but unfortunately, during this turbulent time, the empress dowager and the concubines could not summon them (she could not abandon the children either!). No, they had to send the children to someone else.

After a while, when Kangxi returns, he will probably depose the crown prince. She has to make preparations early and remind the family to restrain their children and not to implicate the family. Rouyin thought for a while, "Liu Qing, bring me paper and pen."

"Yes, Madam." Liu Qing knew that Madam was going to do something secret, so except for the confidant who was taking care of the children, everyone else withdrew.

Rouyin finished writing the letter using the juice of phoenix tail flower, and then traced it again with an ink pen. After confirming that it was correct, she handed it to Liu Qing.

"Remember to keep quiet and don't shout."

"Yes, Madam." Liu Qing responded calmly and stepped out.

Rouyin did not avoid the children during the whole process. Honghui and Yilejia were smart children. They watched their mother finish everything quietly. Yilejia whispered, "Why did you use this juice that can't leave a mark to write first?"

Honghui, who was also young, was also puzzled and guessed with a hint of understanding: "Mother, is there any way to read the words written in that juice?"

Rouyin touched the heads of the two children. She had to say that Honghui was smart. After taking the Qizhi Pill, he was even smarter than his sister. She explained gently, "This juice is made from chopped and ground phoenix tail flowers. It can be revealed by shining a fire. Mother wrote with it first, and then wrote with ordinary ink to cover up other people's suspicion. Even if someone opened it, it would be difficult to know the content. However, this is not foolproof. Honghui and Yilejia should know that any matter will leave traces as long as it is produced, so don't listen to one side and believe it, but observe carefully."

Honghui and Yilejia nodded as if they understood. Rouyin looked at the two babies' ignorant faces and couldn't help pinching their soft flesh, waking them up at once. "Ah, mother, you pinched me again!" Yilejia was so angry that she put her hands on her waist, leaving Rouyin with a puffy face and a little princess facing away from her. Honghui stood aside, staring at her mother with a little bit of condemnation in his indulgence. Looking at the reactions of the two big babies, Rouyin couldn't help laughing. Wang Mama and Shi Liu couldn't help laughing.

Perhaps it was the infection of the laughter, several little brothers who were still in their cradles also laughed out loud, which made the originally angry Yilejia bury himself in his mother's arms and said in a muffled voice: "Mother, my brothers are laughing at me too!"

Rouyin held up Yilejia's round but cute little face and said, "How could that be? My Yilejia is so cute and sensible, how could the brothers laugh at you? When the brothers grow up, you and your brother will teach them to read and write, okay?" Rouyin said as she pulled the hand of Honghui, who was self-controlled and steady. Honghui, who was a little disappointed that his mother only coaxed his sister, immediately blushed and said excitedly, "Mom, my brothers have grown up, I will teach them to write and play together!"

"Me, me, me, me too. Jia Jia also helps her brother take care of the younger brothers." After saying that, she ran to each of the little brothers and gave them a kiss. "Grow up quickly, little brothers. Sister will take you to see beautiful flowers and build snowmen."

Nanny Wang looked at the lively actions of the young masters with kindness. It was really great that their lives had been getting better and better since the masters left the mansion.

Rouyin did not directly explain that the little princes could not grow up so quickly and could not accompany Yilejia and Honghui to build snowmen. She said softly: "It's snowing heavily now. You can build snowmen in the side hall. It can only be done for one hour. You must wear gloves, understand?"

Hearing that they could now build snowmen, Yilejia and Honghui's eyes lit up and they stared at their beautiful mother. Yilejia, who was sweet-mouthed, said loudly, "Yeah, that's good. Mother is the best mother in the world." Honghui, who was holding Yilejia on the other side, had red ears and said with surprise in his eyes, "Thank you, mother. I will look after my sister."

Rouyin looked at Honghui, who was like a little adult, and Yilejia, who was eccentric, and kissed each of them again. Then she said to Nanny Wang, who was smiling the whole time, "Nanny, I have to ask you for help again."

"Oh, Madam, taking care of the young master is something that no one else can ask for. Madam, I am so happy that you think highly of me."

Rouyin looked at Nanny Wang, who had always treated her like her own daughter, and advised her not to tire herself out and not to be too accommodating to the two children. Nanny Wang smiled and responded repeatedly.

Looking at the two children wearing gloves and down clothes, she had made this thing two years ago for herself to play in the snow. This thing has become a must-have two-piece set for playing in the snow in Beijing, and it has become popular throughout the capital. She waved her hand and signaled them to go and play. She said she was making a snowman, but in fact she asked the servants to pile the clean snow outside in the house. It can't be too much, and they have to pay attention to it all the time so that it doesn't melt, so as not to add to it. Rouyin was afraid that the two children were too young to stand the cold, so there was only one table of snow and a time limit. The two children liked it very much. They also made their own snowman made by Ali, the Persian cat raised by their mother.
