The other concubines around him also echoed.

A palace maid came in from outside and said a few words to Mammy beside the Queen Mother. Then Mammy walked to the Queen Mother and said, "Master, Madam Ulanara has arrived and is waiting outside the palace."

"Then come in, Xuan."

"Yes."

Aisin-Gioro was waiting outside for the empress dowager's audience.

"Your humble servant pays respects to the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager be blessed with good health. I also pay my respects to all the ladies." Aisin-Gioro and Xueying followed the palace maids into the hall and paid their respects.

"Be flat."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

"Madam Ulanara, this must be your young daughter Xueying."

"Your Highness, yes, this is my daughter Xueying."

"Come here and let me see."

Xueying followed Aixinjueluo after entering Ningshou Palace. Now she heard the empress dowager asking her to come over. She stood up and walked to the empress dowager. She saw the empress dowager wearing a gorgeous cheongsam with dragon and phoenix patterns, interlaced with gold threads, and exquisite embroidery. She was dignified and elegant, amiable, kind-hearted, and her every move revealed a noble and elegant charm.

"The Empress Dowager."

"Madam has raised a lovely daughter." The empress dowager looked at Xueying who was coming forward wearing a red dress, which was very festive and very much to her liking. The emperor said that they were twins, a boy and a girl, which was a blessing. The empress dowager liked her more and more as she looked at her. It was rare to meet someone who was so well-liked by her.

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your praise." Xueying used authentic Mongolian.

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up and she said to Xueying, "Do you know Mongolian?"

"I know a little bit, and I can communicate with them in daily life."

"It's okay. I finally met someone with whom I can communicate. You must come to the palace from time to time to visit me and keep me company." The empress dowager was very happy that the little kid who caught her eye could speak Mongolian. This was really great.

"Empress Dowager, aren't you making things difficult for Princess Xueying?" Concubine Yi said slowly to the Empress Dowager with a smile.

"I'm overthinking it. Xueying is too young now, and it's not convenient for her to enter the palace."

"I appreciate the kindness of the Empress Dowager. As long as I have the chance, I will come to the palace to chat with you."

"That's good."

The Queen Mother talked to Xueying for a while, and then Xueying and Aisin-Gioro left.

"My Queen Mother, what do you think?"

"He's a nice kid."

"She was born of a dragon and a phoenix, and is blessed. Baocheng is not of the right age, so we can only choose from among the other princes."

"That is, among Yinzhi, Yinzhen and Yinqi."

"Your Majesty, please consider this matter yourself. I will not offer any suggestions."

"Empress Dowager, this matter still requires your participation."

"No, no." The Empress Dowager did not want to get involved in this matter. She never asked about the affairs of the palace. Although there was Yinqi, the Emperor was now afraid of Mongolia, and he would never assign it to Yinqi. But it was also good this way. How could Yinqi not be able to escape from the vortex?

Cheng Qiangong

"Master, today the Empress Dowager summoned the wife of Lord Fei Yanggu and his little princess to the palace. It is said that the Empress Dowager likes the little princess very much and hopes that she can come to the palace to accompany her more often." Nanny Tong walked to the bedside of the Imperial Concubine and told her what happened in the palace today.

"Fei Yanggu's youngest daughter? Ahem, it is said that the princess is one of the twins, a boy and a girl." The imperial concubine thought about it and couldn't help coughing a few times, thinking that it was that one.

"Yes, master." replied Nanny Tong.

"I heard she is very lucky?"

"Is such that."

The Imperial Noble Consort thought that such a blessed daughter of an important official could only marry into the royal family. She thought of her own frail body. The imperial physician reported that her body was running out and she didn't have much time left. She thought that Xueying's family background could be of help to Yinzhen, and she hoped that her blessing could help Yinzhen have a safe and smooth future.

"Mammy, go to the Qianqing Palace and invite the emperor to the Chengqian Palace tonight. Tell him that I have something to tell him." Thinking of this, the imperial concubine forced herself to stand up and said to Mammy Tong.

"Yes, master."

Qianqing Palace

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort of Chengqian Palace just sent someone to invite you to come to Chengqian Palace tonight. The Imperial Noble Consort has something to discuss with you." Liang Jiugong entered the palace and walked in front of Kangxi, saying in a low voice.

"Do you have something to discuss? Then come to Chengqian Palace tonight." Kangxi stopped reviewing memorials and thought for a while before roughly understanding what the Imperial Noble Concubine meant by sending someone to invite him.

"Yes."

"The Emperor has arrived."

"May the emperor be healthy and well." The Imperial Concubine stood up and bowed gracefully.

"Hurry up and get up. You're not feeling well right now. Why are you bowing?" Kangxi walked over and helped the imperial concubine up, his tone full of concern.

"I am afraid of being disrespectful. Besides, I am still in good health now."

"Your Majesty, today the Empress Dowager summoned Fei Yanggu's wife and young daughter. It is said that his daughter is lovely and smart." The Imperial Concubine gradually mentioned Xueying.

"Well, I didn't expect Fei Yanggu to have such a quirky daughter." Kangxi thought of Fei Yanggu's burly appearance and found it hard to imagine that he would have such a daughter.

"I have a request that the Emperor grant me." The Imperial Concubine didn't want to get into any more trouble, and she didn't have much time, so she could only speak directly to the point.
