Chapter 303

Qingyao frowned slightly and said with her red lips slightly opened: "Anyway, the princes after the seventh brother will be left to their respective biological mothers to choose. After all, I have very little contact with their wives. But our Qi'er and Xiang'er are my biological children. I will definitely have many opportunities to get along with their wives." After saying this, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on her face, as if she had already seen the happy scenes of the children after they got married and started their own families.

Kangxi narrowed his eyes slightly, with a faint smile on his lips, and said slowly: "In my opinion, you should be treated just like Chenghu and his brothers. There is no need for too much special treatment. I will give orders and have people send what you need to you. At that time, you can take your time to choose and make sure to choose a daughter-in-law that satisfies you." His eyes fell on the other person gently, as if he could see deep into her heart through those eyes.

Qingyao bowed gracefully and said, "I would like to thank my husband first." Kangxi gently helped her up and held her in his arms.

Qingyao nestled lovingly in his broad, warm embrace, like a docile kitten. She tilted her head slightly, her delicate face filled with tenderness and anticipation, and softly asked, "My dear husband, regarding the marriages of Qi'er and Xiang'er, I'd like to ask if you have any special requests? After all, this concerns the children's future happiness!" As she spoke, she extended her delicate hand and gently placed it on his chest, as if this would bring their hearts closer.

Kangxi pondered for a moment and said, "The first thing is that her family background should be clean and that she is well-matched. Secondly, she must be gentle, virtuous, well-educated, and able to support her husband and raise children." Qingyao listened, pondered silently in her heart, and slowly said, "I think so too, but there are so many women in this world, and it is not easy to choose the most suitable one. I have heard that some families use all means to teach their daughters various skills in order to get their daughters selected, but they lose their original intention." Kangxi patted her on the back gently, "I know your concerns. I will order someone to investigate this matter carefully and will not let those people Someone with ulterior motives has sneaked in." Qingyao smiled, "Then I am relieved. But there is one thing left. What if this woman is not liked by Qi'er or Xiang'er after entering the mansion?" Kangxi smiled and said, "If so, it depends on the woman's own luck and whether she can slowly win the heart of the prince. But I believe that with your vision, the choice should not be too bad." Qingyao nodded, "I hope everything goes well, and Qi'er and Xiang'er can find a good match to accompany them for life." The two hugged each other, and the room was warm and harmonious, as if they had seen a bright future before their eyes.

A few days later, the day of the talent show arrived. Qingyao sat aside, her eyes intently observing the women who came to participate. She saw young women file in one after another, all dressed in Manchu costumes, with a variety of graceful manners.

Concubine Yi bowed slightly, her face filled with a hint of respect and curiosity as she asked, "Your Majesty, do you have a favorite candidate for this selection? The distinguished ladies throughout the capital are as beautiful as flowers blooming in spring, each with their own unique charm. I'm sure Your Majesty will be able to select the most outstanding woman to be the consort of Prince Rui and Prince Yi."

Qingyao smiled slightly and said slowly: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. The selection process needs to be done slowly so that you can find the right person. But... I would like to ask you, have you chosen suitable candidates for the tenth and twelfth princes?" She raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes fell on the other person, as if expecting a satisfactory answer.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Yi hurriedly smiled and replied, "I do have a few candidates, but it depends on the emperor and the queen's opinions." Qingyao nodded slightly and turned her gaze back to the group of women waiting to be selected.

At this moment, a graceful woman with a beautiful face slowly approached. As she bowed, her demeanor exuded a uniquely graceful elegance. Qingyao couldn't help but take a second look. The nanny beside her whispered something in Qingyao's ear. It turned out that this woman was from the Niuhulu clan, well-read since childhood. Qingyao's heart was moved, and she felt that this woman met the criteria of being gentle, virtuous, and well-educated.

As Qingyao pondered this, another woman, none other than Zhaojia, came into view. While not as steady as the previous one, she possessed a uniquely vibrant energy. Qingyao thought that Qi'er, with her calmer temperament, might be a better match for the former; Xiang'er, with his more outgoing nature, might also be a good choice.

Kangxi, having finished his official duties, also came to inspect the place. He glanced at the two women Qingyao had noticed, exchanged glances, and nodded slightly. Qingyao understood, feeling a little relieved. It seemed these two were very likely candidates for his son's wives. He only hoped they would truly bring happiness to Qi'er and Xiang'er.
