In the end, Chunlai and Yinqi reported Hongli's decision.

After returning to the front yard that day, Hongli went into the study and did not come out until the next morning. Then he asked Chunlai to go to Qingying to pass on the order, but he only confined Qingying to her house for a month and fined her half a year. He never went to Qingying's yard again for the next six months.

Qingying was also a strong-willed person. If Hongli didn't come, she wouldn't go to the front yard to look for him. The two of them remained in a stalemate until winter. Qingying couldn't hold on any longer and asked Aruo to send a bowl of fragrant soup to the front yard. Only then did she finally reconcile with Hongli.

But that incident created a rift between the two of them, and their relationship was no longer as good as before.

Unlike Qingying's cold reception, Hongli ordered people to send a lot of things to the main courtyard as soon as the punishment from Qingying was announced.

In the days that followed, Hongli stayed in the main courtyard every few days. This led to the fact that when the eldest princess recovered, just over a week after her first birthday, during the biweekly pulse check, Fu Cha Langya was found to be pregnant again.

This made Hongli, who was longing for a legitimate son, go to the hospital more often.

However, Hongli was completely focused on Fucha Langya's belly at this time, and he did not notice that the look in Fucha Langya's eyes when she looked at him was no longer as loving as before.

Because of this, when Madam Fucha came to Baobei'er Mansion with her unclear mind and proposed to Fucha Langya to find someone to help her win over Hongli during her pregnancy.

Without hesitation, Fu Cha Langya sent Huang Qiying, the maid she had brought from the mansion, to Hongli's bed.

As for Fu Cha Langya's recommendation of someone to him, Hongli could be said to have gladly accepted it.

After all, he didn't take after his grandfather Kangxi in any other aspect, but he was even more lustful than his grandfather.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye it was the New Year's Day of the eighth year of Yongzheng's reign.

This year's New Year's Festival was unusually grand. Firstly, it was not held on a grand scale last year due to two funerals. Secondly, news came from the front line a few days ago that after more than half a year of fighting, Junggar finally surrendered in November.

Because Junggar had repeatedly provoked the Qing Dynasty, this time Yongzheng directly sent people to station in Junggar, and ordered preferential treatment for the surrendered people of Junggar, allowing these people to pay taxes mainly on horses, agriculture, land and households, supplemented by tea, salt, wine and mines, and they only had to pay three points more in taxes than the residents of the Qing Dynasty within three years.

When Junggar is stable in three years, the residents of Junggar can pay the same taxes as the residents of the Qing Dynasty. They also promised to build roads and bridges for Junggar, and build farmland and water conservancy projects to improve the lives of the Mongolian people. (made up)

Yongzheng's actions made the Junggar people happy, and they were grateful that they were no longer caught up in war. They expressed their submission to the Qing Dynasty and no longer harbored any resentment.

Yongzheng's ruthless move not only completely recovered Junggar, but also made the various Mongolian tribes fearful, fearing that the Qing emperor would catch them one day and use this as an excuse to attack them.

For a time, the Mongolian tribes were trembling with fear and became more concerned about the Qing Dynasty.

Baohe Hall

It started snowing lightly in the Forbidden City last night, and by this morning there was already a thick layer of snow in the courtyard.

Animals inevitably become lazy in winter, and even divine beasts are no exception, so Yinqi and the other man inevitably stayed in bed for a while. This resulted in Yinqi's Jinzhong arriving a little late even though the banquet was at noon.

The two of them slowly arrived outside the Baohe Hall, but unexpectedly they ran into Fu Cha Langya again. They didn't know whether she had been waiting here for a long time or just arrived by coincidence.

She was seen holding her slightly bulging belly with both hands, and came over to greet the two of them with sparkling eyes.

"Uncle Yu, be safe, and Beile Zhong, be safe"

The look she gave Yin Qi was too scorching, so when Fu Cha Langya came closer, the corners of Jinzhong's mouth, which had been slightly raised just now, fell down, and his eyes immediately became unfriendly.

Yin Qi, who was always paying attention to his lover, squeezed the other's hand for some unknown reason. After hearing Jinzhong's message in his mind that everything was fine, Yin Qi looked at Fu Cha Langya and asked.

"Fucha? What are you doing here? Why don't you go in?"

"My niece came here on behalf of Jingqin to thank Uncle Yu."

The Jingqin mentioned by Fucha Langya was the name given by Emperor Yongzheng himself when the eldest princess turned one year old.

And what Fu Cha Langya said today was actually just an excuse for her to see Yin Qi.

As early as when Jingqin was just recovered, Hongli had already met Yinqi and Doctor Ye with apology and thanks. How could he wait until this time?

Yin Qi, who had only had feelings for Jinzhong, didn't notice anything about Fu Cha Langya's little thoughts.

Only Jinzhong's eyes became colder and colder, causing Fucha Langya to shiver for no reason. Feeling the crisis, she subconsciously held her stomach.

Seeing this, Jinzhong suddenly smiled brilliantly and said "concernedly" to Fucha Langya.

"It's freezing cold, dear Mrs. Le, you'd better take care of yourself, otherwise Hongli will be heartbroken if you catch a cold."

Fu Cha Lang Ya felt sick at Jin Zhong's words. She felt sick at first sight as she thought about how she had seen through Hong Li's lustful, arrogant and self-righteous character since the incident with the eldest princess.

I secretly blamed Uncle Zhong Wang for mentioning that person. It was such bad luck.

So she looked at Jinzhong with some resentment, whispered "Thank you Uncle Zhong for your concern", and then looked at Yinqi as if she wanted to say something else.

But Yinqi saw that the atmosphere was so weird, so he laughed awkwardly and said something.

"Ahem, we are family, so there is no need to be so polite. Jingqin is also my great-niece. You are still pregnant. It is cold outside. Let's go in together."

He then pulled Jinzhong towards his seat first, ignoring the hesitant look on Fu Cha Langya's face behind him.

After entering the hall, Yinqi first exchanged greetings with his brothers before finally finding the time to ask Jinzhong in his mind what was wrong.

"What did Fucha Langya do to offend you?"

Apart from this reason, Yinqi couldn't think of any reason why Jinzhong would be hostile to the other party.

After all, in the original plot, Fu Cha Langya died early, and Jinzhong was still trying hard to get to the top at that time. Logically, the two of them seemed to have no intersection.

"I hate the way she looks at you"

Speaking of this, Jinzhong felt jealous and had an aggrieved look on his face. He gave Yinqi a resentful look.

"Eyes? What eyes?"

Just now, Yinqi's mind was completely on Jinzhong and he didn't pay attention. Thinking back, Yinqi didn't think there was anything wrong.

"I hate all looks. You are mine, so if others look at you a few more times, I am at a disadvantage. You have to compensate me."

How could Jinzhong possibly tell Yinqi about Fucha Langya's feelings for him? Since he had already determined that she was an enemy, he had to get rid of her before she even went to the "battlefield", so there was no need to let Yinqi know about this.
