Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Shi Wenzhuo, who was supported by Hongxi, also wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

He glared at his son-in-law who was standing behind his daughter several times.

It's all because of this audacity!

Not only did he kidnap his own daughter, he also made her fake her death for so many years!

Now that he and his wife have almost stepped into the coffin, it doesn't matter whether he is a prince or a prince.

When Hongxi saw his father and mother standing in front of him, he felt sad and his eyes turned red.

Yinreng looked at his distressed son and his father-in-law who was glaring at him, and a feeling of guilt flashed through his mind.

Staring at his father-in-law's death gaze, he walked up to the mother and daughter who were still crying and hugging each other.

"Mother-in-law, Yu'er, let's go inside and sit down and talk."

"My father-in-law and mother-in-law have traveled such a long way, I'm afraid they can't bear it."

Wanyu sniffed and then nodded.

She supported her mother and said to the three of them, "Ama, mother, and Fengsheng, let's go inside and talk."

"Baocheng, ask Tianqing to get Doctor Zhang to come over and first check on Ama, E'niang, and Fengsheng'e to see if they're feeling unwell."

Yinreng nodded and said, "Okay."

Then he asked the servants to serve tea and snacks, and told someone to invite Doctor Zhang to examine the three people.

Fortunately, after Doctor Zhang examined the two elderly people, Shi Wenzhuo and Fu Cha were found to be in good health.

I'm just a little tired from the long journey, and I have some common diseases among the elderly. I just need to have a good rest and recuperate.

Needless to say, Hongxi's body is extremely strong!

Wanyu and Yinreng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If the two elders got into trouble because of them, they would blame themselves.

After confirming that the two were not seriously injured, Wanyu looked at her very tired father and mother and said softly.

"Father, Mother, I have already had the room you are staying in cleaned up."

"You've been traveling for such a long time, I'm sure your bodies are a little exhausted."

"Daughter will take you back to your room to rest first."

"If you have anything you want to say or ask, wait until you have rested well. Then, after you finish your meal, we can sit together as a family and talk about it slowly."

"OK?"

Of course, Fu Cha and Shi Wenzhuo responded to all their daughter's suggestions.

After getting their parents' consent, Wanyu and Yinreng helped the two of them to a room prepared in advance to rest.

He also instructed the kitchen staff to prepare more Jiangnan specialties today, as well as the dishes that Wanyu ordered that her parents and eldest son liked in previous years.

After arranging everything, he reminisced with his son in the main hall.

Through Hongxi's narration, the two of them had a deeper understanding of the situation in the capital in recent years.

The rest of the brothers are doing well.

Although it was Yinzhen who ascended the throne in this life, it was still much smoother.

Therefore, except for Yunsi, the other princes did not have much hatred with the fourth prince.

With the support of his brothers and Manchu nobles, he was able to implement the decrees much more smoothly.

The one who ended up with the most miserable fate was Yunsi, who was always restless and wanted to stir up trouble.

Even Yunzhi, who had revealed his feelings at the beginning, was only treated coldly by Yongzheng, and was not as bad as originally described in history.

The rest of those who had real talents and hard work were all reused by Yongzheng.

The most obvious ones are Yunlu, Yunxiang, Yunli and Hongxi.

Before Yongzheng's death, he granted hereditary rights to Prince Yi Yinxiang and Prince Li Hongxi, meaning that their titles would not be downgraded when their descendants inherited them.

Although Yunlu and Yunzhi did not receive this honor, several of their legitimate sons were promoted by Yongzheng.

So compared to its other brothers, it is still very good.

At least his efforts in government affairs paid off.

After hearing this, Yinreng sighed and said, "Fourteenth Prince was ultimately implicated by Uya and Eighth Prince."

After Hongxi finished talking about the current situation of his uncles, he mentioned the situation of the Guwaljia clan.

The original patriarch was Wanyu's uncle Shi Wenbing. After Shi Wenbing passed away some years ago, the eldest son of the first wife, Fu Dali, became the patriarch.

Today, Fu Dali is the Minister of the Imperial Guard of the first rank, and also serves as the commander-in-chief of the Manchu Plain White Banner.

Fu Dali's eldest son, Mukedeng, served as the general of Fuzhou.

Shi Wenbing's second son, Qingde, is now the Minister of War, a first-rank official, and also holds the title of Right Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate, which is a first-rank official position.

The youngest Guanyinbao is not as good as his brothers and nephews who are older than him.

Now he is only a vanguard lieutenant of the third rank, but his future is immeasurable.

As for the second branch, because Shi Liha discovered high-yield crops earlier, he was conferred the title of first-class marquis and Yunqiwei by Kangxi, and the title was hereditary.

During the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, high grain yields greatly reduced famine caused by various natural disasters, and the number of people who starved to death each year decreased significantly.

Yongzheng raised his title to the first-class duke and bestowed the character "Ji" as his title, which means to save the world and the people, and assist in the economics.

Not only that, he was also appointed as the Minister of Military Affairs, which was very pleasing to the emperor.

Wanyu's younger brother Shi Mujin, after years of hard work, finally reached the pinnacle of civil officials.

In the tenth year of Yongzheng's reign, he entered the cabinet and served as the Grand Secretary of Baohe Hall, holding the position of the chief minister of the cabinet.

He was given the title of Taifu and was occasionally arranged by the emperor to go to the upper study to give lectures to the princes and grandchildren.

In addition, many other relatives have also been promoted to important positions.

All the men are high-ranking officials, and almost all the women in the clan marry into wealthy families.

In short, the Guwalja clan reached its peak during the Yongzheng period.

Now that Qianlong has ascended the throne, he may not allow his relatives by marriage to have too much power, but it will not be too bad at all.

Moreover, he has left a way out for his family, and it is a foregone conclusion that another title will appear in the family.

Therefore, Wanyu has no regrets or worries about her family.

Several people stayed at Wanyu's place for half a month. Hongxi was the trusted brother of the new emperor. The new emperor had just ascended the throne and the previous dynasty still needed the support of various forces to suppress the important ministers left by the previous emperor.

Therefore, Hongxi could not stay in Jiangnan for too long and had to rush back to the capital.

Unexpectedly, when Hongxi just proposed to wait for Guo Luo's mother and Guo Luo Mafa to return to Beijing, he encountered strong opposition from Shi Wenzhuo and his wife.

Shi Wenzhuo sat on the chair and turned his head away, unwilling to look at his eldest grandson's face.

"If you want to go back to Beijing, go back by yourself."

"Your mother Guo Luo and I will stay here to accompany your father and mother."

Fu Cha also nodded and agreed: "The old man is right!"

"Fengsheng, you and I, Guo Luomafa, are old, and our arms and legs are weak. We can't stand such a long journey."

"You are still young and not afraid of hard work. Just go back by yourself, ah."

Hongxi frowned helplessly.

"Guo Luo Mafa, Guo Luo's mother, when we set out from the capital, you didn't say that you were too old to withstand the hardship."

"You said at the time that you were in good health and weren't worried about the bumpy road at all!"

"I promised my uncles and brothers and sisters that I would bring you back the same way I brought you out."

"What's the matter with me going back alone now?"

Shi Wenzhuo snorted coldly.

"Then I don't care!"

"We finally found my daughter. My wife and I want to stay with her."

He looked at Wanyu and Yinreng who had been watching the show with a bad look.

"Why don't you talk?"

"Why, my daughter and son-in-law, do you also want to drive away your mother and I, two old guys?"

"My daughter and son-in-law, are you unwilling to take care of us two old people in our old age?"

Yinreng quickly said, "Hongxi, just go back by yourself."

"It would be nice for you, Guo Luo Mafa, and Guo Luo's mother to stay in Jiangnan."

"Your mother hasn't seen them for over ten years, and she's reluctant to let them go back so soon."

Wanyu also nodded.

"Your father is right."

"Okay, if you miss us in the future, come to Jiangnan to see us again."

"Your Mafa Guoluo and your mother Guoluo are old, so it would be nice for them to retire here."

Hongxi sighed.

He originally thought that this time he came to Jiangnan, he could bring his father and mother back to the capital. For this purpose, he specially brought Guo Luo Mafa and Guo Luo's mother with him so that they could persuade his father and mother together.

Unexpectedly, I didn’t bring the person back, but instead lost two people.

We come here with great enthusiasm and hope, but in the end we leave alone.

When Hongxi left, Wanyu prepared a lot of gifts for his relatives in Beijing.

Among them, the one given to Hongli was the most special.

Even Hongxi was at a loss for words.

[Why did Mother prepare a small box of this stuff for the Emperor? ]

[You even asked me to carefully observe the emperor's expression when he saw the gift?]
