Warm my heart

Guaerjia Emin shook his head, his eyes filled with love and regret: "Yuan'er, you will always be my Guaerjia Emin's daughter, my good girl."

After hearing this, Guarjia Wenyuan burst into laughter and happily followed her family into the house.

Her heart was filled with warmth. Even though she was a young lady now, in her parents' hearts, she was still the beloved little daughter.

Now that she is the mistress, she can no longer chat with her father alone in a room like before.

Emperor Yongzheng reclined on the dragon couch, his expression indifferent. Outside the palace, the night had deepened, and the palace lanterns flickered faintly.

Supported by Jianqiu, the queen slowly walked into the bedroom, her steps steady and graceful.

Arriving before Emperor Yongzheng, she made a dignified bow and said, "I have come specially to congratulate Your Majesty and congratulate Your Majesty on having another beautiful woman."

The eighteen pieces in Emperor Yongzheng's hand were casually fiddled with by him, making a crisp clinking sound. "Why do you say that, Queen?"

The Queen's lips curled up into a smile, and there was a subtle hint of bitterness in her tone: "It has spread throughout the palace. The Emperor is very pleased with today's selection."

The Yongzheng Emperor disliked the Empress's duplicity. His voice was flat and cold: "Among these ordinary people, there are at least one or two who are of decent quality."

Upon hearing this, the Queen quickly took over the conversation: "It's not bad at all. I heard that Shen Zishan's daughter has the demeanor of Jingpin back then, but Zhen looks exactly like..."

Emperor Yongzheng gave the empress a sharp look, and she tactfully stopped talking.

At this moment, what emerged in Emperor Yongzheng's mind was Guarjia Wenyuan's small round eyes when she was frightened, which were both cute and charming.

A warm current surged in his heart, and his whole body became hot.

Emperor Yongzheng narrowed his eyes, as if recalling something: "It's just the eyebrows and eyes that are somewhat similar."

If he didn't want someone who looked like his first wife to marry an outsider, he wouldn't have let the scheming Zhen Huan enter the palace.

There was a hint of bitterness in the Queen's voice: "It's rare to have some resemblance. I heard that the Guarjia family is like the goddess of Luo River in the world, a fairy who has descended to earth."

Emperor Yongzheng's tone was flat, as if he was commenting on something insignificant: "Not bad, a bit better than the old man."

When the queen heard this, her face suddenly changed. She couldn't help but wonder, is the emperor hinting that she is old and ugly?

She reluctantly suppressed her displeasure and decided to change the subject: "Forgive me for being so nosy, but what status does the Emperor intend to give to Zhen and Guaerjia?"

The Buddhist beads in Emperor Yongzheng's hand were turning, and his voice was calm: "Give Zhen a noble lady, and give Guaerjia a noble lady as well!" He already had a plan in his mind. After serving the emperor in bed, he would promote Guaerjia's status to prevent her from getting angry.

The Queen pondered for a moment. She knew that in the palace, the fate of concubines was often determined by their rank. "Noble Lady, yes, then I'll call you Noble Lady."

She continued, "Now the Manchu and Mongolian armies have three noble ladies, and the Han army flag has two noble ladies."

After hearing this, Emperor Yongzheng had an idea. His original intention was just to prevent Zhen Huan from marrying anyone else, so he decided to demote her to a concubine: "Then Zhen will be a concubine of the sixth rank. I also want to give her a title."

The Queen immediately responded: "Then let the Imperial Household Department approve the title and see."

Emperor Yongzheng directly retorted: "No need, I have already thought about it."

He waved to the queen, who suppressed her doubts and walked over happily.

Emperor Yongzheng personally wrote the character "菀". When the Empress saw it, she immediately said, "菀, I remember the line '菀菀黄柳丝，雾雾杂花垂' in the Tang Dynasty poem 'Spring Lyrics'."

Emperor Yongzheng seemed to admire the Empress's talent, but his words pierced her heart like a knife: "I think the way Zhen smiles is very beautiful. And let's give Guarjia a title too, let's call her Yue. Okay, please leave."

The word "Yue" implies beauty, preciousness and elegance. "Yue" is also considered to be a magic pearl bestowed by God to the virtuous emperor.

The queen wanted to say something else, but she could only withdraw silently. She knew that the emperor had made up his mind.

Guwaljia Emin has been paying close attention to every move in Zhen Yuandao's mansion. He has arranged spies to keep an eye on the movements in the mansion at all times.

What he didn't expect was that Zhen Huan actually dared to openly bring An Lingrong into the mansion.

"Isn't she afraid that others will report her for forming cliques?" Guaerjia Emin sneered in his heart. He was puzzled by Zhen Huan's behavior, which was undoubtedly laying hidden dangers for himself.

He spread Zhen Huan's words and deeds outside the temple, as well as her relationship with Wen Shichu, through various channels.

Soon, these rumors spread throughout the capital, and even the ladies in the palace heard about them.

Guwaljia Emin also ordered people to closely monitor all movements in the Zhen Mansion, not even letting go of a single flower or a single blade of grass.

Lady Guaerjia knew in her heart that her daughter Guaerjia Wenyuan's entry into the palace was a foregone conclusion.

She held Guarjia Wenyuan's hand tightly and whispered solemnly, "Yuan'er, when you enter the palace, you must seek refuge with the Empress.

Your father secretly gave you many precious things, just to make the Queen protect you more in the palace."

After hearing this, Guarjia Wenyuan opened her eyes wide in surprise: "What? My father and mother gave that old woman so many things?"

Mrs. Guaerjia's face darkened, and there was a hint of displeasure in her tone: "How can you say that about the Queen, child?

The Queen is known for her kindness and generosity."

Guarjia Wenyuan didn't buy it and immediately retorted: "Mother, you don't know, in my dream I entered the palace and took refuge with the Queen, but the Queen gave me a red musk bead.

I treated her like a treasure and carried her with me every day, but I died without a child of my own. I entered the palace hoping to give birth to a prince with Guarja blood.

Humph, I don't want to rely on that hateful queen."

After hearing this, Mrs. Guarjia was stunned for a moment, then her eyes became red and tears rolled down uncontrollably.

What her daughter experienced in her dream must have been the suffering she experienced in her previous life, as she didn't even have a child.

Thinking of this, her heart ached.

She choked with sobs and held Guarjia Wenyuan tightly in her arms. Only this could she feel a little comfort.

She was afraid that her daughter would repeat the same mistakes and walk the tragic path in her dream again.

If she had known all this a few days earlier, she would never have let her daughter enter the palace.

She would find a good family for her daughter so that she could live a happy and stable life, away from the intrigues of the palace.

The two hugged each other tightly, their vision blurred by tears.

Mrs. Guaerjia never mentioned again that Guaerjia Wenyuan should go to the Queen for refuge.

As night fell, Mrs. Guwalja told Guwalja Emin all this.

After hearing this, Guwalgiya Emin frowned. He did not expect that Queen Ulanara would treat his daughter like this.
