Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children

In the sixty-first year of the Kangxi reign, after entering the winter month, Emperor Kangxi clearly felt that his body had reached its limit.

After several bouts of illness, Kangxi's body became easily fatigued, and he was always absent-minded and had difficulty walking. He knew that he might not have much time left, so when he got a little better, he summoned Zhang Tingyu, Longkodo and Prince Yu Baotai to discuss the issue of establishing a crown prince.

Until the last moment, Kangxi would not think of appointing a crown prince. In his opinion, the emperor and the crown prince could not coexist.

"All power in the world should be in the hands of one person."

But now it's different. When a person is about to die, he seems to be able to sense it. If I don't arrange my affairs after death, I'm afraid that after I die, my brothers will be at odds with me!

"The imperial edict of the late emperor...Yinzhen, the fourth son of Prince Yong, is a man of noble character and very much like me. He will surely succeed me and ascend the throne as emperor..." Kangxi conveyed his will in a halting manner, pausing to take a breath after each paragraph, and finally finished the last few sentences.

The will was written in three languages, Manchu, Mongolian and Chinese. It was kept sealed after it was written. When he passed away, the three people present would take it out and read it out together.

After writing the edict, Kangxi felt relieved of the burden on his mind and seemed to feel much more relaxed.

Baotai then asked, "Should we summon Prince Yong to accompany us?"

Kangxi shook his head and said, "Sacrificing to Heaven is more important. Wait until he comes back from offering sacrifices to Heaven before passing it on."

However, in the afternoon, Kangxi's condition took a turn for the worse.

"Quickly call Prince Yong!"

In Changchun Garden, everyone looked panicked and walked in a hurry.

Especially the eunuchs who served Kangxi closely, their faces turned pale and they were shaking like sieves.

Because they knew that the emperor's illness was beyond recovery!

The imperial doctors had been waiting in the garden, and at this time they could only use ginseng soup to keep the patient alive, hoping to delay until Prince Yong returned.

Yinzhen was at the Temple of Heaven, fasting and bathing, preparing to offer sacrifices to heaven. When he heard Kangxi's urgent order, he rode at full speed in the night and finally made it back to Changchun Garden.

When he arrived at Changchun Garden, the third, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, twelfth and thirteenth elder brothers had already arrived.

In addition to them, there are Zhang Tingyu, Longkodo and Baotai.

"Khan Ama..." Yinzhen fell to the ground crying. His heart was a little confused, but more of it was real heartache and sadness.

Kangxi raised his hand slightly, and Wei Zhu, with tears in her eyes, hurriedly said, "Prince Yong, please come forward."

Yinzhen knelt down in front of the bed and held Kangxi's hand. Kangxi used up his last bit of strength and said, "Zhang Tingyu is a man of talent. He is the only Han official who deserves to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. I did not extend Longkodo's father's title, but left it to you... You can use it to show favor after you succeed to the throne."

"Khan Father, your son..." Yinzhen cried uncontrollably, but the chaos in his heart had calmed down.

Khan Ama finally chose him.

Kangxi wanted to say something else, but he only said a few words: "Your brothers..." Then his pupils dilated and Long Yu passed away.

"Khan Ama!"

"emperor!"

Shouting and crying mixed together. While crying, the Ninth Prince did not forget to pull the sleeves of the Eighth and Tenth Princes and whispered, "Hurry up and send a message to the Fourteenth Prince to come back!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Tingyu stood up, looked at Longkodo and Baotai, and said loudly: "Now, read the late emperor's will!"

The crying stopped abruptly as if someone pressed a switch.

Zhang Tingyu and the other two took out a sealed box, took out the will and began to read it.

After reading the will, the room became quiet again.

The first one to react was the Thirteenth Prince. He knelt down in front of Yinzhen and shouted, "Long live the emperor!"

The other princes also reacted and knelt down, but the Ninth Prince fell to the ground and murmured, "It turned out to be him, it turned out to be like this! I'd rather die than live!"

The night clock sounded, but Shen Jiang was still not asleep.

The lights in Prince Yong's Mansion were bright, and from time to time one could hear the sound of hurried horse hooves passing by outside.

The gate opened and closed again, and Honghui came running over and told Shen Jiang: "The nine gates are under martial law!"

Shen Jiang looked in the direction of Changchun Garden and ordered everyone in the mansion: "Guard the gates well. No one can enter or leave unless there is an order from the palace!"

"Yes!" Honghui has long been able to take charge of things on his own, so he went to make arrangements right away.

Shen Jiang yawned and went back to his room to sleep.

For the next two days, the capital remained under martial law.

It was not until the afternoon of the third day that Fu Nai, a close confidant of Yinzhen, entered the palace with a letter in his hand. When he saw Shen Jiang, he knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "The late emperor has passed away and left a will. Prince Yong ascends the throne! The master has gone to the palace and will come to pick up the master soon. Please make preparations, master."

Shen Jiang smiled slightly and said, "I understand. You have worked hard."

Fu Nai presented the letter, kowtowed again, and then left.

The people around knelt down one after another, saying, "May the Queen be well and safe."

Shen Jiang first read the letter written by Yinzhen. It was not long and contained only a few words. She put the letter away and looked at the people kneeling on the ground, saying, "Everyone, get up!"

Two days later, Kangxi's coffin was transported back from Changchun Garden and placed in the Qianqing Palace.

After the mourning hall was set up, Shen Jiang had to go to the palace to mourn.

Yinzhen proclaimed himself emperor in front of the coffin, so she should have been the empress, but she had not been officially canonized yet, so she didn't count.

A small incident occurred while the funeral was going on.

It was Concubine Yi who came to mourn, and perhaps because she was too sad, she actually stood in front of Concubine De.

When Kangxi was in power, the four concubines were ranked "Hui, Yi, De, Rong", and Concubine Yi was indeed ahead of Concubine De. But now that Kangxi has passed away and Yinzhen has succeeded to the throne, Concubine De is the Holy Mother Empress Dowager!

This Concubine Yi actually has no foresight at all, it seems that she is dissatisfied with the new emperor and is challenging the imperial power!

Yinzhen was very dissatisfied, but he did not lose his temper on the spot. Instead, he reprimanded the old man afterwards and blamed it on the ninth brother!

After a series of ceremonies, Yinzhen honored Consort De as his birth mother, the Empress Dowager, Consort Wu Nara as the Empress, Crown Prince Honghui as the Crown Prince, and Consort Hui Fa Nara as the Crown Princess. The two princesses Zalafen and Qi Buchen, who had already married, were also named Gu Lun Princesses.

The rest all received rewards, which are not listed here one by one.

Originally, Yinzhen did not want to decide on the position of crown prince too quickly, fearing that the crown prince would become a target of the other princes, just like during the time of the previous emperor.

But after thinking about the remaining sons, Hongshi was mediocre and didn't know what to do all day, so he was not up to the task. Although the twins were smart, the court officials would not let one of them succeed to the throne, otherwise it would be a big mistake.

Therefore, it would be better to settle Honghui's status so that he does not have to worry.

After learning about Yinzhen's thoughts, Shen Jiang seriously suspected that the system had ulterior motives in making her pregnant with twins.

System: "Who cares! Anyway, your mission is completed!"

The mission was accomplished, but Ulanara’s life span had not yet ended, so Shen Jiang had to live out her life with dedication.

At the end of November, Shen Jiang moved into the palace with her family, and she also lived in Kunning Palace.

In December, the new emperor appointed several of his younger brothers as princes and summoned Fourteenth back to Beijing.

The following year, Yinzhen changed the reign title to Yongzheng, which was the first year of Yongzheng.

Qi Buchen, who was far away in Mongolia, came back. Shen Jiang met her in Kunning Palace. After looking at her carefully, he saw that she had a rosy complexion and a strong body. He nodded with relief.

Song was given the title of Concubine Mao and lived in the Yanx Palace.

Qi Buchen came from afar, so Shen Jiang asked her to go and see the Song family.

As for Li, since she had given birth to Zalafen and Hongshi, she was given the title of Qipin and lived in Chuxiu Palace. Niuhulu was also packed in and moved in. If she dared to say anything nonsense again, there were ways to punish her!

The concubine was given the title of noble concubine and lived in Yongshou Palace.

Yongzheng would not favor her, but he would hold her in high esteem and serve her until Nian Gengyao became completely useless.

In May, the Empress Dowager died of illness due to missing the late emperor too much.

Those in the Eighth Elder Party, even including the Fourteenth Elder, actually spread rumors that the Queen Mother was dissatisfied with the new Emperor and died of anger!

Yongzheng severely punished some people and the rumors were temporarily put to rest.

The new emperor ascended the throne and did not change his father's ways for three years. Yongzheng is forbearing now, and will settle accounts with these people after three years!

Shen Jiang thought that since everything had been arranged, there shouldn't be any unexpected changes, right?

Unexpectedly, one day, Honghui told her: "Uncle Ba invited me to drink..."

Shen Jiang suddenly raised his head and looked at him: "You didn't agree?"

Honghui smiled, and his every move was that of a modest gentleman. He said, "Don't worry, my son will always remember his identity and will never follow in the footsteps of... my second uncle."

Shen Jiang patted his chest and said, "Fortunately, you are smart. Alas, you have also experienced those bloody storms, and you should cherish your position as the crown prince, which is not easy to come by."

Honghui said seriously: "My son will remember this. However, Hongshi and Eighth Uncle have been very close recently."

Shen Jiang pondered for a moment and said, "Don't pay attention to it. Your Khan Ama's sticky place is not a vegetarian."

Honghui said: "As the eldest brother, I saw that my younger brother was about to go astray, so it would be bad if I didn't warn him. I thought, I have said what I should say to Hongshi first. If he still insists on doing it his own way, no one can stop him."

Yes, if Yongzheng later found out that Honghui knew about the incident but did not report it, he would become suspicious.

Shen Jiang can no longer think of him as her husband from her youth. He is an emperor, and the emperor's mind is as deep as the sea!

She nodded and said, "You are very thoughtful."

I don't know how Honghui reminded Hongshi, but unfortunately Hongshi didn't take it to heart. Not only did he get closer and closer to Lao Ba, but when Yongzheng reprimanded Lao Ba, he even pleaded for him.

This made Yongzheng very angry, and he also suspected how Hongshi had hooked up with Lao Ba. He asked the stick department to investigate and was almost vomiting blood in anger.

"Since you like your eighth uncle so much, just be his son!"

In the fourth year of Yongzheng's reign, Hongshi was adopted by Prince Lian, Yunsi.

Then, Yongzheng began to purge the Eighth Elders. The Eighth Elders and the Ninth Elders were imprisoned and died one after another, the Fourteenth Elder was stripped of his title and imprisoned, but one Elder was left.

Yongzheng suppressed this group of rebellious brothers with thundering means. Although the outside world was not optimistic about his reputation, it did bring more than ten years of peaceful life.

In addition, Yongzheng himself was a good emperor who worked hard to govern the country. During his reign, the national treasury was full and people's livelihood was greatly improved.

In the ninth year of Yongzheng's reign, Ulanara's life came to an end.

"Empress..." Yongzheng held Shen Jiang's hand tightly, as if as long as he held her tightly like this, she would not leave him.

Shen Jiang murmured, "I didn't expect that even though you've worked so hard, I'd still be ahead of you. Take care of yourself, live a few more years, and do more good things for the people."

"I promise you, I promise you..." Yongzheng was so heartbroken that he burst into tears.

The deadline has come. Shen Jiang closed his eyes and only heard the system calling: "Host, slow down. Wait for me to change to the next space together!"

This is a low-level system!

After Shen Jiang cursed in his heart, he lost consciousness.
