Cao Qinmo is plain-looking and has an average family background, so Pangju naturally doesn't like her. However, she is the best at being humble, so she quickly clung to Nian Shilan's thigh and became Nian Shilan's external brain.

Fei Yunyan was charming and lovely, but her head looked like a peeled lychee—very beautiful, but smooth and watery. Although Fatty Ju coveted her youthful beauty, it was difficult for him to truly care about her.

Not to mention Fat Orange, even Nian Shilan, who always liked to solve everything with force and didn't like to use her brain, sometimes felt helpless about her confusion, and after making things difficult for her once, she was too lazy to pay attention to her.

What's more, Fei Yunyan knew the situation very well. She admitted her mistake and slid down to her knees as if it were silky smooth. However, her knees softened faster than Cao Qinmo's. After all, Cao Qinmo observed the situation in the mansion for a while before acknowledging her master.

Two newcomers were recruited one after another, and Nian Shilan was so proud that her tail was about to rise to the sky.

Nowadays, Shi Lan's temper has become more left-wing because of her miscarriage.

Not only did she act arrogantly and domineeringly towards the concubines and servants, she also dared to test and provoke the mistress Yixiu.

Fat Ju felt sorry for her losing her son, and whenever he had nothing to do, he would go to her and show his courtesy. He also took her to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat and hunt. It was as if an old house was on fire. He was almost forty years old, but he didn't mind the trouble.

Until this day, Yixiu caught a cold, and Pangju came to see her. He pretended to care about her, but in fact he wanted to take the opportunity to let Yixiu delegate power to Nian Shilan.

Fortunately, Yixiu had been prepared. When Pangju arrived, her daughter-in-law Fu Cha Wensheng and daughter Lingxi were there.

Seeing the younger generation was present, Fat Orange didn't want to embarrass Yixiu, so he swirled the words on the tip of his tongue and swallowed them back.

Yixiu was waiting for him to come so that she could get rid of the trivial matters in her hands. So when she saw him come in, she smiled and said, "You are just in time. The three of us were just talking about asking someone to invite you to come and discuss things."

"Su Peisheng said that Fu Jin was ill. I came to see you. Are you feeling better after taking the medicine? What are you busy with?"

"Thank you for your concern, Silang. I've been thinking about how Wen Sheng has been in the mansion for over a year now. They've kept their yard in perfect order. Wu Yunzhu (the eldest daughter of Honghui and Fucha Wensheng) is also well-behaved and doesn't make trouble. Why not have her come over and help me take care of the backyard? Lingxi is old enough now, so she can learn to handle the chores too."

When Yixiu suggested asking his daughter-in-law to help manage the household, Pangju felt a little unhappy, but when he mentioned his daughter Lingxi, his unhappiness disappeared. He agreed, "Lingxi has grown up, it's time for her to learn these things."

Yixiu took the tea from Xiuxia with a smile and personally served it to him. She added, "Besides the housekeeping matter, there's another matter that I need your attention."

As soon as these words were spoken, Lingxi blushed and Pangju looked confused.

"It's a spiritual marriage,"

"Mother!" Lingxi's face flushed. "My daughter misses Wuyunzhu. I, I'm going to see Wuyunzhu."

After saying that, he fled the scene without waiting for Fat Orange to react.

Yixiu and Fucha smiled knowingly, "This child is shy! Wensheng, you should go and keep an eye on him too."

"Yes, mother. Mother, I'm leaving now."

After the younger generation left, Yixiu carefully chose her words and said, "I know that marriage between Manchus and Mongols is a national policy. Most of our Manchu princesses will have to support Mongols." When Yixiu said this, her eyes were filled with pity.

"But Silang, Lingxi is my sister's only remaining blood. Before she died, my sister was most worried about her. If Lingxi were to marry far away in Mongolia, I'm afraid we would never see each other again in this lifetime. Fourth Master, I beg you..."

Yixiu got down from the couch and knelt down to beg him, "Please, for my sister's sake, can you please talk to the emperor and let Lingxi stay in the capital?"

When mentioning Rouze, Pangju's heart softened. When he thought of Lingxi's face that was similar to Rouze, he was even more moved.

"Yixiu," Fat Orange reached out and pulled Yixiu up, "Lingxi is also my daughter. I care about her no less than you, as a mother. I will carefully consider her marriage and will not let you and your daughter endure the pain of separation."

"Ah, really?" Yixiu cried with joy.

"A gentleman's word is as good as gold, so it is important to take it seriously."

"Thank you, Fourth Master!"

"Okay, okay, stop crying. We are all mamas now. Let the children know the joke."

"Yes, I was just excited for a moment, please don't laugh at me." Yixiu wiped her tears and continued to talk about trivial family matters with Pangju, looking a little affectionate.

Fat Ju really enjoyed this atmosphere. As for the matter of asking Shi Lan to be the housekeeper that he had thought of before coming to the main courtyard, Fat Ju had completely forgotten about it at this moment.

After all, a living red rose cannot compare to a white moonlight that has passed away early. At this moment, Fat Orange's heart is all about finding a good husband for Lingxi to stay in Beijing. That way, when he passes away a hundred years later, he will not feel guilty towards his first wife.

In order to allow his precious daughter Lingxi to stay in the capital, Pangju changed his previous indifferent Buddhist behavior and began to actively deal with various affairs.

In particular, the recovery of the arrears owed by the Ministry of Revenue had yielded encouraging results, and the reputation of the confiscating prince became even more reputable.

Yinzhen was capable and dedicated in everything he did, and he tried his best to seize every opportunity to show himself, which made the Eighth Prince and others feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Even the emperor wondered if his son had taken the wrong medicine. Hadn't he always touted himself as the world's most idle person? Why was he acting so out of character?

After working hard for more than half a year, Pangju finally accumulated enough merits and dared to ask his Khan Father to grant Lingxi a favor: Lingxi, the legitimate daughter of Prince Yong's Mansion, does not have to be sent to Fumeng.

Kangxi suddenly realized that the fourth daughter had changed her previous behavior and actively showed herself in the past six months not for herself but for her precious fourth daughter Lingxi!

One couldn't help but feel pity for his kind-hearted father, so he readily agreed to Lingxi's marriage and also gave Lingxi the title of Heshuo Gege.

In the 54th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Lü Yingfeng gave birth to a daughter, Shuhe, who became the sixth princess of the royal palace and was treated the same as a concubine of a commoner.

In the 56th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Pangju selected all the outstanding men in the capital and finally decided on Xingde of the Ulanara clan for Lingxi (in history, this person was the son-in-law of Concubine Qi Li and the husband of Princess Heshuo Huaike).

In the 57th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, the four Lingxi sisters got married one after another, and the first three princesses of Prince Yong's mansion were all adopted without exception.

When their daughter got married, Song and others cried uncontrollably.

Fortunately, under Yixiu's intervention and education, these three sisters were all strong and tough. They were good at riding and shooting, as well as managing the household on foot. Therefore, although Song and others were sad about the separation and would hardly see each other again in the future, they did not have to worry about their daughters' short lifespan.

After the three princesses were married off to Mongolia, the fourth princess Lingxi's marriage was also put on the agenda.

On Lingxi's wedding day, Honghui personally carried her out. Yixiu and Pangju stood side by side to see Lingxi off.

Looking at this heartwarming scene between brother and sister, the two were filled with emotion.

"If my sister were still here..."
