Chapter 348 Consort Fucha
Regardless of what others thought, they saw Hongchang's attitude.
Everyone echoed this sentiment, their faces beaming with smiles.
They all congratulated Hongchang and Liang Wanyi:
Congratulations, Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, and Empress!
Princess Yongding will surely enjoy great fortune in the future and make outstanding military contributions to the Qing Dynasty.
Princess Yongding got what she wanted.
He then staggered to Fucha Peiyun's side.
Her little hands gripped the seal and whip tightly, a pure smile on her face.
It was as if she was showing off her "trophies" to Fucha Peijun.
Fucha Peiyun looked at her exquisitely beautiful granddaughter.
Her eyes were filled with love and relief as she gently bent down.
He gently picked up Yongding and said:
"Yongding, my dear granddaughter, you did a great job. Grandma knows you're the best."
Seeing that Yongding had already caught something, Yonglian and Yongjue also began to choose.
Yonglian's little hand lingered on the item for a while.
Finally, he picked up a calligraphy brush and then a small, unsharpened sword that was not far away.
He held a calligraphy brush in one hand and a small sword in the other.
He stood up unsteadily and took small steps toward Yongding.
She was babbling to herself, as if she wanted to share her findings with her older sister.
Upon seeing this, everyone showered him with praise once again:
"Prince Yonglian is skilled in both literature and martial arts; he will surely achieve great things in the future."
Yongjue slowly crawled to the bow and arrow.
Yongjue gripped the bow and arrow tightly in his small hands, seemingly fascinated by this powerful weapon.
He gently plucked the bowstring with his other hand.
Hearing that crisp sound, their eyes sparkled with curiosity and excitement.
Then he picked up the abacus next to him.
He clutched the bow and arrows and the abacus tightly to his chest.
Having grasped these two items, Yongjue staggered towards his sister Yongding.
Suddenly, Yongjue lost his balance and plopped back down on the table, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
However, Yongjue didn't cry; instead, he got up on his own.
Continuing towards Yongding, it babbled incoherently.
It seemed as if he was comforting himself, or perhaps showing Yongding his "spoils of war".
Seeing Yongjue fall and get up again, everyone praised him:
“Prince Yongjue is truly persevering. He will surely overcome all difficulties and achieve great things in the future.”
Hongchang looked at Yongjue, his eyes filled with satisfaction, and said:
"Yongjue has grabbed a bow and arrows and an abacus; it seems he is skilled in both literature and martial arts."
They will surely contribute to the economy and military of the Qing Dynasty in the future.
Yonglian and Yongjue walked over to Yongding, and the triplets gathered together again.
They seemed to be showing off their achievements, or perhaps exchanging ideas.
Everyone watched this heartwarming scene with loving smiles on their faces.
Upon seeing this, Fucha Peiyun was even more gratified.
She gently stroked Yongding's head and said:
"Yongding, Yonglian, Yongjue, you are all Grandma's precious children."
Everyone watched as the Empress Dowager and others showed great affection for the triplets.
This made everyone understand even more the Queen's status and that of her triplets.
This empress, who was born into a Han family, seems unshakeable at present.
Following the triplets' first birthday celebration, news of the six concubines' pregnancies began to circulate.
Although Liang Wanyi was inevitably a little disappointed at first, she was prepared for it.
Furthermore, Hongchang had always been considerate of her feelings, which is why it took the Six Concubines so long to conceive.
She should be content; she should have been a dutiful empress.
Instead of getting bogged down in those romantic little details
Therefore, seeing the six concubines getting pregnant one by one, Liang Wanyi was also happy.
The more offspring the imperial harem had, the more prosperous the Qing dynasty's bloodline would be, which would be good for the country's future.
Moreover, Liang Wanyi also understood that...
Hongchang's love for her did not diminish in the slightest because of the Six Concubines' pregnancy, which made her feel much more at ease.
Liang Wanyi quickly had her maids prepare gifts suitable for pregnant women.
They were sent to various palaces, and the imperial physicians examined them one by one.
Consort Shu and the others who received the rewards already trusted the Empress's character.
After seeing the imperial physician's examination, they felt even more at ease.
Liang Wanyi even excused them from paying their respects, allowing them to focus on their pregnancies.
Soon, good news kept coming from the harem.
First, Consort Shu, Hesheli Wanqing, gave birth to a princess.
Hongchang named him Yongyue
Then, Consort Ning, Yiergen Gioro Yaqin, gave birth to a prince, whom Hongchang named Yonghuang.
Consort Mu, Borjigit Saren, gave birth to a princess, named Yonglin.
Consort Ying gave birth to Princess Yongjun on that day.
Then, Consort Yue (Liu Siwan) and Consort Yu each gave birth to a prince.
They named him Yongqi, and also Yongzhang.
After the six concubines gave birth, Liang Wanyi petitioned the emperor to promote them to higher ranks.
Seeing that the Empress was so virtuous, Hongchang was also pleased that the six concubines behaved themselves.
Naturally, they were generous and issued an edict to promote their ranks.
Consort Shu, Hesheli Wanqing, was promoted to Imperial Concubine.
Her title was changed to Consort Xian because it overlapped with the former title of Empress Fucha Peiyun.
Consort Ning's title clashed with that of Consort Ning Tai, so it was changed to Consort An.
Consort Mu was promoted to Imperial Concubine and given the title of Imperial Concubine Mu; Consort Ying was also promoted to Imperial Concubine and given the title of Imperial Concubine Ying.
Consort Yue was promoted to Imperial Concubine and given the title of Imperial Concubine Yue. Consort Yu was also promoted to Imperial Concubine and given the title of Imperial Concubine Yu.
With the promotion of the six concubines, the atmosphere in the harem became increasingly harmonious and congenial.
Liang Wanyi set an example by demonstrating the demeanor of an empress.
He not only showed great care for the concubines, but also actively organized them to participate in various beneficial affairs.
This brought peace and harmony to the harem, reducing infighting and backstabbing.
Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
After two years of recuperation, the Qing Dynasty's military capabilities were further enhanced.
Hongchang announced in the imperial court that the Qing Dynasty was ready to take action against Russia.
He ordered generals such as Nian Gengyao, Fu Heng, and Yue Zhongqi to reassemble the army and prepare for an expedition to Russia.
Before the expedition, Hongchang personally went to the military camp to inspect the troops that were about to set off.
He was very satisfied to see that the soldiers were all in high spirits and had great morale.
He encouraged the soldiers, saying:
"Russia is a vast country with abundant resources, but it is riddled with internal contradictions."
In this expedition, we must exploit their weaknesses and bring them into the Qing Dynasty's territory in one fell swoop.
I believe that as long as you fight bravely, victory will surely be ours!
Hongchang then asked Princesses Nian Shilan and Shuhe if they were willing to go on another expedition.
Nian Shilan, Shuhe, and others readily agreed.
Not just the older princesses like Shuhe and Wenyi
This time, the gentle and graceful girl born to Guargia Wenyuan and others...
Princess Jingmin and the others had reached the age where they could go to the battlefield.
They all volunteered to fight, hoping to contribute to the glory of the Qing Dynasty.
Looking at these young and spirited princesses, Hongchang felt both gratified and proud.
He knew that these princesses not only possessed outstanding martial arts skills,
They also possess a firm will and loyalty to the country.
Their presence was undoubtedly a powerful asset to the Qing army.
Fucha Peiyun specially trained the princess to be proficient in both literature and martial arts.
The goal is to have them appear in any situation where they can showcase their abilities.
To enable women of the Qing Dynasty to fight for the glory of their nation.
With these women of high status as role models,
Only then could women in the Qing Dynasty confidently venture into various fields.
They demonstrated talent and ability that were no less than those of men.
