Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Although the Fourth Princess Wanqiong was also recorded as a legitimate daughter in the previous life, it was not so early.

The final decision was made several years after Wanlin married into the Eastern Palace and was canonized as the Crown Princess by the Emperor, after Xiao Jueluo consulted the old lady.

Because after Wanlin became the Crown Prince's wife in the 31st year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Shi Huashan and Shi Wenbing died one after another within three years.

The Guwalja clan no longer had strong support, and Xiaojueluo was worried that the Crown Princess's position in the palace would be unstable.

In particular, the Crown Princess had never been able to get pregnant, but the concubines in the backyard gave birth to three illegitimate sons in succession.

This puts the Crown Princess's position in jeopardy.

It was not until the 36th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign that the Crown Princess finally became pregnant and gave birth despite the expectations of her family and the Emperor and the Crown Prince.

Unexpectedly, she only gave birth to a princess and lost the possibility of having children again.

This completely destroyed the hope of the Guwalja clan.

Although the emperor and the prince did not say much, the emperor began to take a fancy to the illegitimate son born to the prince's concubine.

Moreover, the Crown Princess's favor plummeted, and she rarely stayed overnight in the main courtyard, which made the clan members and the Crown Princess even more anxious.

So Xiao Jueluo proposed to send another woman from the clan to the prince's backyard to give birth to a child, and then have the child adopted by the prince's wife.

However, the only ones with closer blood ties in the family at that time were the illegitimate fourth princess Wanqiong and the fifth princess Wanyue (now the child in Wu Zaku's belly).

However, both princesses were born in the 30th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign and were still too young.

Although Wanlin had not made a decision, Xiaojueluo did not give up.

Therefore, the fourth princess Wanqiong was first registered under the name of the legitimate wife Xiaojueluo, and was brought by her side to be educated.

It is better to train him according to the prince's preferences.

I plan to wait a few years until she grows up and develops her personality, and she will be able to better compete for my favor.

Everything was originally planned well, but later the emperor's attitude became unclear and the prince's position gradually became unstable.

Not only was he often suppressed by the emperor, but he also faced targeting and various actions from his brothers.

Especially after Soetu's death, the party of Prince Mingzhu of Zhi pressed on step by step, causing the prince's temperament to change drastically and also making the emperor displeased.

The Crown Princess felt that the Crown Prince's future was uncertain and did not want to involve her family too deeply.

Moreover, in the 41st year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, his great-uncle Shi Lin, who served as the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi, died of illness in Guangzhou. The family could no longer withstand the heavy blow.

So after Wanlin passed the news back to her family, the plan to send her daughter to the Prince's Mansion was shelved.

Perhaps Kangxi saw that the Guwaljia tribe was well-behaved, or perhaps he wanted to divide the prince's wife's family.

During the general election in the 46th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, the fourth princess Wanqiong was directly appointed to the 15th prince Aisin-Gioro Yinyu.

The following year, the crown prince was deposed on the grounds that he was "extravagant by nature", "tyrannical and promiscuous", and "his speech was incoherent, and he was almost suffering from a madness".

As a result, even after Wanqiong married into the Fifteenth Prince's mansion, she was not valued or favored.

He only had one daughter in his life, and she died at the age of eleven.

Wanlin knew the family's arrangements and must be reluctant to give up the temptation of the position of Crown Princess.

But he also decided that he would never enter the Prince's Mansion in this life.

As for the third sister Wanyu, there was already a tacit understanding in the family.

After the election, find a good Manchu man who is easy to control and has a strong desire to make progress, so that the third sister can live a worry-free life.

My third sister and I are of no help to the family for the time being.

She also knew that her fourth sister might still point her to the fifteenth prince in the future.

Having another prince's wife is a great thing for the clan.

Moreover, without the involvement of the prince, I think the fourth sister will no longer be ignored as she was in her previous life.

That's why Wanlin discussed with Xiaojueluo in advance that she could register her fourth sister under her name as soon as possible and make her a true legitimate daughter.

She has always understood that as members of the Guwalja clan, they all suffer together and prosper together.

But that was something that would happen in the future, and she would never mention it to her third sister.

And Wanlin did this for other reasons.

Now that she has a second life, she will definitely not let Ama and Mafa die early.

In this case, Fuzhou will have to find a way to curb Anjia's ambition.

So she looked at Wanyu, who was full of shock and curiosity, and told her the reason for this.

"Third sister, do you still remember fifth brother's biological mother?"

Wanyu shook her head somewhat uncomfortably, "Second sister, I haven't even met my fifth brother yet."

She had hardly seen any of the concubines in her uncle's backyard, so how could she possibly tell which one gave birth to Guanyinbao?

Moreover, my uncle's backyard is not like my own backyard. There are only three concubines, and none of them are favored.

There are quite a few beautiful girls in my uncle's backyard.

Although the two families had a close relationship, no matter how close they were, she could not possibly get close to a concubine in her uncle's backyard.

Wanlin also remembered that An Jia gave birth to Guan Yin Bao after going to Fuzhou. This year was her first time back to Beijing, and her third sister had never met her yet, so naturally she didn't know much about who An Jia was.

So she said, "I learned from my eldest sister-in-law's letter to my mother that after An Jia gave birth to my fifth brother, she became very restless in Fuzhou."

Wanyu frowned. "Isn't my sister-in-law in Fuzhou in charge of the backyard and hosting banquets for the wives of officials?"

"What kind of trouble could An Jia, a concubine living in the backyard, cause?"

Wanlin sighed and said, "Isn't it just that he wants to seize power from his eldest sister-in-law and take charge of the household affairs?"

"How dare a concubine like her? Besides, with the eldest sister-in-law here, she is the legitimate future wife of the clan. How could a concubine like her get involved?"

"My eldest sister-in-law is also very annoyed now. After all, she is my concubine mother, and she also gave birth to Guanyin Bao."

"When facing her provocations, I always feel a little restrained."

"I think she dared to be so presumptuous just because her aunt was not around."

Wanlin nodded in agreement.

"This An Jiashi thinks she is the most proud person in the Fuzhou backyard just because she gave birth to the Fifth Prince."

"She was the only concubine to give birth to a male heir, so she felt she was a hero to the Guarjia clan and wanted to have the final say in the harem."

"That's why I had the courage to challenge my sister-in-law in Fuzhou."

Wanlin was very clear about this matter. Her sister-in-law in her previous life also wrote a letter back to Beijing to tell her about it.

However, at that time, my mother did not think that An Jia was very brave and thought she was just a little arrogant.

However, at the end of the year, after my eldest brother, his wife, their family and my father returned to Beijing, they told Xiaojueluo about this matter in detail.

Only then did I realize that this person was no longer just being pretentious, but was actually starting to become arrogant.

He actually dared to act like an elder in front of the Fu Dali couple.

Xiaojueluo felt that she could not let this go on any longer, so before Shi Wenbing returned to his post, she pointed out Anjia's inappropriate behavior.

He also suggested that An Jia and Guan Yin be sent back to the capital next year so that he could live with the old master and the old lady in the capital.

Shi Wenbing respected his wife very much and agreed without thinking.

I think after returning to his post, Shi Wenbing warned An Jia and told her about this decision, which scared An Jia so much that she behaved herself for a while.

But this person has a flamboyant personality. I wonder if he whispered something in Shi Wenbing's ear and got some protection?

Not long after, he returned to his old ways, which made Fu Dali's wife, Niu Hulu, very upset.

In the 33rd year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, my father suddenly died of illness.

This made the woman completely lose the confidence to show off, so she took her son back to Beijing and completely retreated and kept to herself.
