Watching the clouds rise (below)

  The person who was strangled was not only Hongli, but also Yongzheng.

  Just thinking that his clever and lovely grandson would not come out of Yunzhu's belly for at least three years, he felt indescribable depression. The empress's departure was also too timely, it would be great if she had left two years earlier or later! However, Wu Zaku's pregnancy finally gave him some comfort. He had already passed his heavenly fate year, but he only had one grandson and granddaughter, Yongyuan, which was a loss of face to say out loud!

  Thinking of this, he felt a bellyful of frustration. This matter couldn't be blamed on his son either; his own eldest son and firstborn hadn't been kept safe, and by the time he came to his senses and had children like Hongli and Hongxu, he wasn't young anymore...

  It's okay if Hongli is a bit late, after all, he and Yunzhu have been apart for so long since their grand wedding. In the past two years, his own body has become much lighter and more energetic, and living another ten years won't be a problem. Hongli also has a good foundation and pays attention to self-care, just like his mother, so he will definitely live a long life too. What he worries about is that Yunzhu's youth will pass in the blink of an eye. Women should have several children while they are still young and beautiful to be secure... He furrowed his brow, but Yunzhu has such good fortune that it shouldn't be the same for her.

  It wasn't until I made this connection and comparison that I realized that none of the empresses in Qing dynasty history had much "good fortune".

  It's definitely not going to be the same!

  Changing methods to make delicious vegetarian dishes for Hongli to regulate his body, Yunzhu also sent nutritious meals to Su Peisheng's hands, reminding him to pay attention to himself and not forget to eat... Such a filial daughter-in-law, Yongzheng's heart has long been biased towards her.

  As for the rumors that the fourth and fifth princes are exclusively favored by Fu Jin? Humph, is it not that they are not exclusively favored by their concubines?! As for the private lives of his sons, the emperor is not one to ask (privately). His two sons indeed respect and favor their legitimate wives, but those gege's rooms are not ones they haven't entered. What they do is still quite good.

  There will be such rumors, but thinking of borrowing his or Nian Gengyao's and Geng Jingzhong's hands to deal with the two imperial princes' consorts.

  This kind of arrogant and reckless servant cannot be spoiled, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble he will stir up.

  All these minor worries occasionally floated away, and the Ministry of War, Ministry of Revenue, and Ministry of Personnel verified and presented a list of merits and demerits of northwest generals. He had to carefully reward them, so the eunuchs who transmitted the edicts in the Qianqing Palace were also busy running back and forth between the capital's major aristocratic mansions every day.

  Having obtained the opportunity, he also summoned Hongli to ask him in detail about all the things he had experienced and seen and heard in the northwest, to prevent lower officials from colluding with each other to take credit for his achievements. Late at night when no one was around, he would also listen to the reports of the secret guards who followed Hongli secretly... to confirm his son's performance on this trip to the northwest.

  Compared with the emperor, Yunzhu is much more leisurely.

  It is unknown whether the Emperor intentionally or forgot, since the Empress Dowager's death, she not only didn't touch palace affairs again, but also didn't attend some national funeral ceremonies. Everything was handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Household Department. If there were royal ladies and imperial consorts who performed sacrificial rites, they would be presided over by Xi Consort.

  There was a rare earthquake disaster in the capital, and then the northwest army won a great victory and returned to the court. The queen's funeral was solemn and mournful, everything followed the traditional rituals and ceremonies. She accompanied Wu Zaku every day, silently fulfilling her duties, just as she should. Many people who had previously envied, resented, and hated her couldn't help but swallow their sarcastic remarks when they saw her like this.

  The Empress Ulanara may not have any children, but her status is noble and unshakeable. She is the current Empress or the only one who was personally appointed by the Emperor in his lifetime. If someone were to be disrespectful at her funeral, who knows what would happen? Moreover, when these four consorts are solemn, their elegant and refined demeanor exudes a hint of majesty that makes people dare not offend them... It's true, regardless of whether they are favored or not, their status is clear, and they will also become the future Empress. Offending them now would bring no benefit to oneself.

  Yunzhu could only sigh secretly, indeed it was the royal dignity, what was written in the inner description "concubines crying to faint in order to invite imperial favor" or "taking the opportunity to give the emperor a delicate and weak charming eye" was really too unlikely to happen. Such things, not only concubines, but also the ladies who came to offer sacrifices, eunuchs, and officials from the Ministry of Rites were present, if seen by others, one's reputation would be completely ruined, even if one received temporary favor, afterwards being cleared out would be very miserable, perhaps provoking the emperor's disgust and having no hope of future favor.

  The only thing that made Yunzhu feel a bit displeased was Su Bao Rou's entry into the palace, and Xi Fei was too hasty. As soon as Yongzheng agreed to let her in, she immediately had people brought into the palace and stuffed into Qianxi Er So, without even waiting for Hongli to return.

  Su Bao entered the palace with a low status, her family was not prominent, and she only brought one palace maid, Xiangyun. There was also an old woman named Wan Shi, who was assigned to her by Xi Fei.

  Although this "goods" cannot be returned, Yun Zhu would not consider her a proper wife of Hong Li until the grand wedding ceremony is held. After meeting them in the main hall of Zhengyuan, she arranged for them to live in the left wing of the third courtyard, separated from other consorts and concubines.

  Su's entry into the palace was well-prepared, but what surprised her was that little maid named Xiangyun, who indeed looked a bit like Jinxiu, but compared to Jinxiu's gentle and steady temperament, she appeared more lively and charming. At a young age, she walked with her head down and eyes lowered, but no matter how low-key she was, she couldn't escape Yunzhu's sharp senses. As just a maid, Su wouldn't have paid much attention to her, but what piqued her curiosity was that Xiangyun actually had quite good martial skills, with solid footwork and stable breathing...

  This world has martial arts, the brothers in the mansion are very skilled, a jump of two or three meters is no problem, but she hasn't seen anyone with such high-flying lightness like on TV. A young girl from a humble background, actually possessing martial arts skills, can it be that she's really willing to be a slave?!

  Guo Auntie personally took them to the courtyard to settle in. Yunzhu held the tea brought by Lingxiu and slowly said to her, "Find a discreet and skilled person to keep an eye on Xiangyun."

  "It is." Ling Xiu was somewhat surprised.

  "Really surprised?" Yunzhu smiled, "Our two schools have finally produced a high-ranking person. That girl's skills are not bad!"

  Ling Xuan immediately became serious and replied, she also knew that this little girl had some connection with Jin Xiu, but didn't think much of it. Now hearing that her skills were not bad, then her background was very suspicious.

  At night, Yunzhu gave two thin books that had been prepared long ago to Shu Duan, and asked her to find an opportunity to "send" them to Sun Taizhen and Su Taizhen. The two of them, one was the imperial physician, and the other was a master of gynecology in the Imperial Hospital, with good character and trusted by the emperor, it was necessary to supplement their knowledge for future reference.

  The queen passed away, and after the time for the princes, princesses, and other members of the royal family to pay their respects had passed, the northwest army would arrive. Yunzhu had already instructed Gu Yiniang and Shang Yiniang to tidy up the two western courtyards in preparation for the master's return. The kitchen was also prepared by Tuguniang with plenty of food, but they had to be careful not to serve any luxurious dishes or wine.

  Although Yongzheng was pleased with himself for pacifying the Dzungars during his reign and thought that such a victory was worth celebrating throughout the country, since the mourning period for the empress had not yet passed and the reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken areas in the capital had not been completed, the welcoming ceremony for the returning troops was grand but did not have an atmosphere of indulgence and extravagance with feasting and drinking, and the spirit of the officers and soldiers appeared even more austere.

  It is said that this time, it was not only the people of Beijing who were deeply impressed by the emperor's extremely high level of oratory skills, but also the Eight Banners Army. He used tea instead of wine to pay respects to heaven and earth, and to welcome back the victorious generals, expressing gratitude to the heroic spirits buried on the borders, praising their lofty spirit of loyalty and sacrifice for the country. Then he talked about how the people of Qing Dynasty, including those in Beijing, supported them during the disaster, making connections and expressing emotions. In short, he portrayed Dzungar as evil and Qing Dynasty as righteous, moving the generals present and the welcoming crowd to tears.

  The first imperial edict given to the generals returning from the campaign and the princes rushing to the battlefield was not a reward or appointment for someone, but an announcement of the construction of the "Great Qing Martyrs' Temple" near Xiangshan in the western suburbs.

  All soldiers who died for the country, regardless of their background, can be awarded the title of "martyr". Their souls can enter the Temple of Martyrs and receive sacrifices from the people. Their families can receive 50 taels of relief funds and also receive 5 taels of consolation money every year.

  Generals who die for the country can be awarded the title of "Zhonglie" and their souls can be enshrined in the Wuying Hall of the Temple of Martyrs, where they will receive incense offerings and worship. Their wives and children may also receive imperial edicts, noble titles or rewards of wealth.

  A lifetime of loyalty and dedication as a civil official, after death, was recognized by the emperor and granted posthumous honors. His spirit could enter the Wenchang Pavilion, where he would receive incense offerings and worship; blessings would extend to his descendants - it was very beneficial for future generations to take the imperial examination path.

  Military achievements are brilliant, and the civil and military officials who are loyal to the king's affairs can enter the portrait of Ziguang Hall before and after their death. Their honors can be compared with the Twenty-Eight Generals of the Cloud Platform in the Han Dynasty and the Lingyan Hall in the Tang Dynasty.

  The people, soldiers and nobles present were all stunned by this sacred edict. Immediately afterwards, the soldiers' "Long live" voices echoed through the sky. They were truly moved. Promotion and wealth are only available with life, once they die on the battlefield, the family's support and incense offering after their death is what they care about most. With the title of "martyr", what else do they have to worry about? They don't even have to worry that someone will embezzle their consolation money, as their names are engraved in the Martyrs' Mausoleum.

  As for the generals and officials, they were all hot-blooded. Once their names could enter the Wuying Hall (Wenchong Hall) or the Ziguang Hall, wouldn't that be a name that would be passed down in history?!

  This move not only eliminated corruption but also set an example for all officials, giving them a goal to strive for. It was truly ingenious, and Hong Li understood its cleverness in just an instant. Thinking of the various "calamities" he had encountered along the way, he instinctively turned his gaze towards Hong Xi, who was standing behind the emperor, and happened to see his changing expression. He coldly snorted in his heart, thinking that Hong Xi must be secretly resentful of the emperor's move to win over people's hearts.

  These were the topics that Hongli had discussed with her after he finished talking about his experiences in the northwest. Anyway, since they were in mourning, their leisure time increased greatly, and even his beloved wife couldn't indulge in romantic affairs. Although the two of them were "co-conspirators", they also couldn't be too obvious... So they could only use the extra time to communicate verbally, seeing Yunzhu listening with a smile, he spoke more enthusiastically, occasionally she would interject a few sentences, and surprisingly, her views were quite insightful, without any mistakes, and he felt that she was close to his heart, their thoughts flying together.

  That kind of delightful satisfaction, filling his heart every day, this pure spiritual joy is different from the fusion of soul and flesh. He experienced this beauty for the first time and even ignored his physical needs.

  In comparison, when he received the imperial edict promoting his father to a duke and his birth mother to a noble consort, he was unusually calm. This was what he had worked hard for, as an imperial son, it was only natural that he should achieve this, just like taking a step up a staircase, solid and natural.

  He didn't know that if he came back from the northwest, he would have the chance to spend every night with Yunzhu, and the longing of more than a year would gradually decrease. However, after enduring for a few days, they secretly sought an opportunity to be intimate again, and after enduring for a few more days, they were intimate again. This kind of longing that couldn't be satisfied made him deeply plant the desire in his heart, further solidifying Yunzhu's position in his heart and emotions, step by step making himself sink deeper.

  Hongli is really good at winning people's hearts, and this time he brought back many special products from Mongolia and Tibet, such as dried yak meat, rhodiola, ginseng fruit, wild mushrooms, cordyceps, snow lotus, Tibetan knives, Tibetan blankets, thangkas, jade jewelry, etc.

  Yunzhu divided some of her own space, without red peony, ginseng fruit and snow lotus, she first kept a little seed in the space (not knowing whether it would survive or not), picked up a piece of Tibetan carpet with her favorite pattern and color and put it in the space to pave; gave Yongzheng a pair of Tibetan knives and Cordyceps sinensis, gave Xi Guifei two sets of exquisitely carved gold and silver utensils, one set was a headdress including bangles, necklaces, hairpins, and the other set was wine cups and bowls; gave Yu Fei a set of gold and silver utensil headdresses, also gave Qi Fei a set of headdresses, two princesses and five Fu Jin were also given headdresses, Fuhui was a Tibetan knife with lion pattern carved on the scabbard and inlaid with agate.

  Hongdiao was lucky, he had also been to the northwest, and it was good that he didn't ask him for gifts.

  She also left some prepared for the opportunity to bring back to her family.

  The author has something to say: The following is the main text:

  The person who was strangled was not only Hongli, but also Yongzheng.

  Just thinking that his clever and lovely grandson would not come out of Yunzhu's belly for at least three years, he felt suffocated. The empress had passed away too suddenly; it would have been better if she had left two years earlier or later! However, Wu Zaku's pregnancy finally gave him some comfort. He had already passed his heavenly decreed age, and yet among his grandchildren, there was only one Yongluang - what a loss of face to talk about!

  Thinking of this, he felt a deep sense of helplessness. This matter couldn't be blamed on his son either; his own eldest son and firstborn children hadn't been kept safe, and by the time he came to his senses and had Hongli and Hongxu, he was no longer young...

  It's okay if Hongli is a bit late, after all, he and Yunzhu have been apart for so long since their grand wedding. He himself has become more energetic over the past two years, and living another ten years won't be a problem. Hongli also has a good foundation and takes better care of himself, so he'll definitely live as long as his mother. What worries him is that Yunzhu's youth will pass in the blink of an eye. Women should have several children while they're still young to ensure their security; it wouldn't be good if she... He furrowed his brow, but with Yunzhu's deep good fortune, things shouldn't turn out like that.

  It wasn't until I made this connection and comparison that I realized that none of the empresses in Qing dynasty history had much "good fortune".

  It will definitely be different!

  Changing ways to make delicious vegetarian dishes for Hongli to regulate his body, Yunzhu also sent nutritious meals to Su Peisheng's hands, reminding him to pay attention to himself and not forget to eat... Such a filial daughter-in-law, Yongzheng's heart has long been biased towards her.

As for the private lives of his sons, the Emperor also does not ask (privately). His two sons indeed respect and favor Empress Fu, but those gege's rooms are not unvisited either. What they do is still very good.

  There will be such rumors, but thinking of borrowing his or Nian Gengyao's and Geng Jingzhong's hands to deal with the two imperial princes' consorts.

  This kind of arrogant and reckless servant cannot be spoiled, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble he will stir up.

It's true, regardless of whether they are favored or not, their status is clear, and they will also become the future empress. Offending them now would bring no benefit to oneself.

  Yunzhu could only sigh secretly, indeed it was the royal dignity, what was written in the inner chamber about "the concubine crying to faint in order to invite imperial favor" or "taking the opportunity to give the emperor a delicate and weak charming glance" was really too unlikely to happen. Such things, not only the concubines, but also the ladies who came to offer sacrifices, the eunuchs and slaves were present, the officials of the Ministry of Rites were also there, if someone saw it, their reputation would be completely ruined, even if they received temporary favor, afterwards being cleared out would be very miserable, perhaps provoking the emperor's disgust and having no hope of regaining favor.

  Guo Auntie personally took them to the courtyard to settle in. Yunzhu held the tea brought by Lingxiu and slowly said to her, "Find someone with a good figure who is unobtrusive to keep an eye on Xiangyun."

  "It is." Ling Xiu was somewhat surprised.

  "Really surprised?" Yunzhu smiled, "Our two schools have finally produced a high-ranking person. That girl's skills are not bad!"

  Ling Xuan immediately became serious and replied, she also knew that this little girl had some connection with Jin Xiu, but didn't think much of it. Now hearing that her skills were not bad, then her background was very suspicious.
