Chapter 2063: Gradually Drifting Away (Begging for a Monthly Ticket)
When the Ninth Prince returned to the North Fifth Institute, Shushu mentioned the matter of Niguzhu receiving the invitation.
"Let's go to Haidian to avoid the days when the little princesses are having dinner parties..."
Also, if they were going to accompany the Empress Dowager to Haidian for a trip, they would definitely bring the Fifth Prince's family and their own children, and would not leave out the Tenth Prince's family.
Niguzhu goes in and out with Hailan every day, and he doesn't want to leave Hailan behind when he goes out to play.
There are only a few children in Beisuo.
"The only ones missing are Nan Suo and a few princesses from the Crown Prince's family..."
Shu Shu said.
The Ninth Prince said, "This is a lot easier. When the Fourth Prince's niece sends the invitation, we can choose a date. We can schedule the day for Tana's dinner party to coincide with the day for us to go out and play..."
Shu Shu said: "Master has thought it through, it is the best of both worlds..."
The Ninth Prince could not help but mention the matter of Yisan'a's official sacrifice, saying: "Khan Ama is still soft-hearted, but Yisan'a is indeed wronged. This second wife was not arranged by him. How can it be easy to marry a second wife from a high-ranking family?"
Just look at Lady Hesheli, who has been married for more than ten years and whose son has grown up, but still behaves in an unruly manner, and you can tell that she is not a submissive person.
Shushu had never met Madam Ruixian, but she had heard of her name before.
When people talk about this person, they all say that he is extremely talented and has a photographic memory.
He was born into a noble family. His mother's family was from the Tonggiya clan and his father's family was from the Hesheli clan.
If there had not been Concubine Ping in the palace in the early years and there had not been a shortage of concubines of the Hesheli clan, then Lady Hesheli's status as a major figure would have allowed her to enter the palace directly.
Shushu didn't know her birth year, but everyone knew her birth and death years because her sister Shengbao's grave was excavated last year.
Zhongshengbao was born in the seventh year of Emperor Kangxi's reign and died in the thirteenth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign.
Lady Nahesheli, his younger sister, was born in the eighth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign.
In the 25th year of Kangxi's reign, he married Yisan'a as his second wife, and in the 26th year, he gave birth to a son, Yiduli...
She is no more than 35 years old this year, and she has lost her husband...
"It had been more than ten years since Zhuliang's fiancée became my disciple. So Madam Ruixian had already become a talented woman in her twenties?"
Shushu admired him very much.
Although it is popular for the noble ladies of the Eight Banners to read and write poetry because of Nalan Rongruo, there are only a few who are talented and famous. Ruixian is the most famous.
The Ninth Prince said, "She became famous earlier than that. I heard that when Nalan was alive, he once commented on her poems."
Nalan Rongruo died in the 24th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. If he commented on poems before that, they were the works written by Ruixian before she got married.
Na Ruixian was only a teenager at that time.
Shu Shu seemed to be thinking about something, and said, "The capital has changed a lot in the past ten years. In the early days, except for unmarried aunts, married aunts did not shy away from showing their faces. As a result, there are fewer restrictions on unmarried aunts now, but more restrictions on old aunts."
In the early years, there was no such thing as the "Three Obediences and Four Virtues" for Manchu women, and divorce and remarriage were common things.
It is rare to hear of a woman like Prince Chun's wife who became a widow after losing her husband in her teens.
But now, looking at it again, from princesses onwards, they are all educated according to Confucian rules, not to mention the women below them.
Just like Qingru, she also has some talent, but only her relatives and friends know about it.
If she wants her poems to appear in public, she has to wait until she is an old lady, to the age where men and women can express their feelings without any taboo, otherwise she will be criticized.
The Ninth Prince said, "Anyway, our eldest princess cannot be brought up like that. She should be comfortable at home and she should also be comfortable after she gets married. If anyone makes her uncomfortable, I will make her whole family uncomfortable."
Shushu thought so too.
Niguzhu is the emperor's granddaughter. After Kangxi's death, she will also be a princess of the royal family. She can do whatever she wants...

The capital city, Dong Edong Prefecture.
Zhu Liang looked at Qing Ru, whose eyes were red, and said, "If you are worried, go to the scholar's residence in person to pay your respects. There is no problem now."
Qingru shook her head and said, "No need. I didn't go the last two days, so I don't need to go today."
Zhu Liang looked at her and said, "After all, she is an elder. What's past is past. Just follow her in future festivals and other occasions."
Qing Ru paused, shook her head and said, "No need, I am me, and I am not me. Since I have become distant from the teacher, let it be!"
Qingru did not show up at the Bachelor's Mansion during the funeral, but asked the nanny to deliver the funeral gifts on her behalf.
She had a rift with her teacher over the dowry issue, and did not send a marriage proposal to them.
After I got married, I didn’t keep in touch with that place anymore.
Zhu Liang was a simple-minded person. Seeing his wife in pain, he felt a little sorry and said, "You already have the title of teacher and student. Don't think too much."
Qingru looked at Zhuliang and said, "You are not a child, how can you not think too much? The teacher is the daughter of the Hesheli family and the wife of the Irgen Gioro family. I am the daughter of the Aisin Gioro family and the second wife of the Dong'e family..."
Seeing that her natal family was already in decline, and Qingru even included her natal family's private property in her dowry just in case, how could she dare to act recklessly and involve her husband's family?
Zhu Liang said, "Why should we be so cautious? The Ninth Master has sent people to offer condolences, and the Thirteenth Master has even come in person..."
Qing Ru said: "That's the prince, he is different from others..."
The crown prince's position is unstable. Even if the Hesheli family returns an earl, its foundation will be damaged.
Since Qingru was well-read, he knew that what every dynasty had never lacked was deposed crown princes.
Even in this dynasty, Beile Guanglue and Prince Lilie were once crown princes, but were successively deposed.
Guanglue Beile was oppressed by the four great Beile and five ministers, while Prince Lilie was deposed because of his excessive power.
The prince’s situation was different from those two, but his situation was also precarious.
Although he was Qingru's uncle, she had only seen him a few times since she was a child, let alone any affection between them.
If the Crown Princess gives birth to a royal grandson, that would be another kind of relationship.
The Crown Princess has no grandson and has a distant relationship with the Crown Prince. The Guwalgiya clan does not get involved, so the actions of the General's Mansion last year were ridiculous.
Zhu Liang hesitated and said, "We will leave the capital in a few days, and we don't know when we will come back..."
Zhu Liang had already taken up his new post and was waiting to see the emperor before leaving the capital.
However, last year was a year of great planning, and this year many people left the capital. The audience with the Emperor was only scheduled two days ago, so the date of leaving the capital was delayed for half a month.
Qingru smiled bitterly and said, "I dare not go. The teacher is stubborn. Now there are two princesses in the Hesheli family waiting to get married..."
Soetu had five daughters in total. The eldest daughter died young, the second daughter was Lady Ruixian, and he had three younger daughters.
The third girl was hastily married last year.
Zhu Liang was stunned and said, "After what happened before, how can Madam Yi have the nerve to speak again?"
Qingru lowered her eyes and said, "Teacher is a little ignorant of worldly affairs..."
Zhu Liang said, "Forget it, we are a teacher and a student, and we are not together for now. Let's wait until my wife is older and then show her filial respect!"
The Dong'e family was not implicated last time because the person who made the decision was Qingru's father, and it had nothing to do with the Dong'e family.
If they are involved again this time, the Dong E family will also be listed in front of the emperor and be regarded as the "prince's party"...

Dutongfu, the principal wife.
Jueluo said to Qi Xi, "I was worried that Zhuliang's wife was innocent and ignorant of the world, but now she seems to be okay. Who should be treated with favor? They are in the name of teacher and student, but the teacher has never thought about the student. The student should also know himself."
Qi Xi said: "We are all well-educated people. How many of us are really ignorant of the ways of the world? Even someone as innocent as my father gave away his daughter's dowry, saying that he was repaying a favor or something. That was just an excuse. He was thinking that he would benefit greatly in the future by helping someone in need. Unfortunately, he made a mistake..."
Jueluo said, "Fortunately, the young couple will be leaving the capital soon. It would be better for Ansheng to stay out there for a few years and stay away from all this."
Regarding her eldest son leaving the capital, Gioro was somewhat reluctant to let him go.
After managing the household for more than 30 years, she had had enough. She had chosen Qingru as the eldest daughter-in-law, and had thought that once she came into the family, the housework would be handed over to her. However, it turned out that she would have to suffer for a few more years.
Although Zhang was still there, Jueluo did not plan to keep Fusong and his wife for long.
After the mistress gets married, she plans to let the Fusong couple move out.
Even brothers and sisters-in-law need to adjust to each other after they start their own families, let alone cousins.
The young couple can live a relaxed life, there is no need for them to live together.
Qi Xi thought of his eldest son leaving the capital, and instead of feeling sad, he asked, "Will Shushu return home tomorrow? Where are the children?"
Jueluo also smiled and said, "The older ones should all come back."
Qi Xi said happily: "Then ask someone to prepare beef and kill a sheep. Shushu and the children love to eat meat..."

The next morning was the tenth day of April.
Shushu asked the Ninth Prince, "If you are busy in the morning, send someone back to let us know and we will leave first..."
This is about bringing the children back home, and it is also a practice for Zhuliang and his wife.
This period of exile will last at least three years.
The Ninth Prince said, "I'm free. I'll be back in a few minutes. How are you?"
Shushu said: "He should be back before the beginning of the morning..."
The Ninth Prince said, "That's great. It won't delay my return home for lunch."
Because Changchun Garden was adjacent to this place, the Ninth Prince did not need to leave early, and the couple left the Prince's residence together.
The Tenth Prince and the Tenth Lady have already come out and are talking to each other.
When they saw the Ninth Prince and his wife come out, they fell silent.
After meeting each other, the two brothers went to Changchun Garden.
The Tenth Lady held Shushu's arm and walked a few steps behind her. She couldn't suppress the joy on her face. She leaned close to Shushu's ear and whispered, "Sister-in-law Nine, my period has been delayed for five days, and I felt sick this morning..."
After hearing this, Shushu quickly looked at her belly.
Of course, nothing can be seen now.
"Then don't delay. I'll call the imperial physician when I get back from paying my respects..."
Shu Shu said.
The Prince Dun’s Mansion is not prominent at the moment because the Tenth Prince is old and is here. In a few years, if no princes or princesses are born, it will become prominent.
These multiple legitimate eldest daughters or second legitimate sons are always better than illegitimate sons and daughters.
"Uh-huh……"
The Tenth Lady smiled.
The Seventh Lady just came out from the beginning and waved to the two of them, saying, "It's almost time, stop kissing each other..."
The two sisters-in-law responded, stopped chatting and laughing, and went forward to reunite with the Seventh Lady.
Guaerjia came out just in time. Shushu thought about how the Seventh Lady had changed her address before, so she changed it this time: "Little Fifth Sister-in-law..."
