[Red Mansion] Biography of Empress Lin

The matter of choosing a companion for the prince and princess to read is not big or small.But whether it is big or small, it is always a chance with the royal family.And for those aristocratic families who want to make friends, even if they can't get to the most popular third prince and Princess Jingting, it is a good choice to compete for the companion seats of the two concubine princesses and Princess Jing'an.

It's just that in this way, the accompanying seat of the First Prince and the Second Prince, who are quite unattended, even almost become a headache for Lin Miyan.

Not to mention the eldest prince, with that relative of the Li family, unless all of His Majesty's sons are dead, he will never even think about being in power in this life.For such a down-and-out prince, even if he takes the title of eldest son, in the eyes of those aristocratic families who are looking for advantages and avoiding disadvantages, it is better to have none.Besides, Lin Miyan didn't want to choose a companion with a strong family background for the eldest prince, lest the restless Concubine Xian in Shoukang Palace would jump up again.

As for the second prince, although the little one is quite pitiful, but Lin Miyan is not the Holy Mother, and the treatment of the concubine Shun shows that this queen is not so magnanimous.In addition, the second prince's body is too weak, so it's better to choose a quiet and steady companion to read, so as not to jump too far and affect the second prince instead.

As for her own third prince, after careful discussion with Jinshang, Lin Miyan chose Fu Jian, the eldest son of Fu's family, and Xu Jiafu, the eldest son of Xu Ling, who were similar in age to the first prince, and then chose a son from a civil servant family. And you're done.

"Don't worry about the second prince and the first prince. It's really strange because I didn't think of it that day." One night when I came to Kunning Palace for dinner, I took the initiative to mention this to Lin Miyan, and it was also a headache. Sighing deeply: "Concubine Xian is not dead yet, so she can't send the son of the military officer's family to the eldest prince. Although the second prince is separated from Shun's concubine, who is not in the right place, but He still looks sickly. I thought that letting the sons of the Jiang family and the Qu family go there, and picking one or two rich and idle people from among the nobles who are not in power, can be regarded as worthy of the status of the prince."

The Jiang family comes from a place where Confucianism is strict, and the most important thing is the dignity of the descendants.As for the Qu family, it was the natal family of Emperor Yong's Empress Zhenning.With the examples of Empress Zhenning and Cizu anyway, presumably Qu Jia can understand what Jinshang means.

"Then pick two people from four kings and eight kilometers to the eldest prince." Lin Miyan decided in her heart: "It's better to pick the son of the Prince of Beijing for the eldest prince. His descendants, if you really want to talk about it, you don’t treat the First Prince badly.”

Speaking of the origin of the Xi Dynasty, the country's surname actually originated from Queen Wende rather than Taizu.

In the great famine at the end of the previous dynasty, there were refugees everywhere who could not get enough to eat, and Taizu was one of them.

Before being recruited by Empress Wende of a female family as her son-in-law, Taizu was a gangster who didn't even know his name. Before he was about to starve to death, he was favored by the newly widowed empress Wende. After marrying Queen Wende, he took his wife's surname.

Empress Wende had four sons and four daughters, of which three sons and four daughters were born to Taizu. Only the eldest son was left by her ex-husband. He vigorously wanted to compete for the position of the prince, but was shot to death by the Taizu on the shore before he could even make a move.

For Empress Wende, Taizu didn't want to execute his stepson, so he established him as a special line in the clan. Enzhi's stepson and his direct descendants are both princes with iron hats, but the line of Xijue is not allowed to be the prince outside the clan's mansion. positions, and are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination.

As for the branch that was separated, although they were qualified for the imperial examination, they had to change back to the surname of Empress Wende's ex-husband, and they were not allowed to use the surname of the country, let alone be counted as a lineage of the clan.

And King Beijing is the eldest son of Empress Wende, and his grandmother was born to Emperor Yong's favorite concubine Liu. These years have not been very good, let alone worry about what will happen to the eldest prince with their eldest son as a companion. I shouldn't have thoughts.

After all, the Zong Ling of the Clan Mansion is Prince Fu who is married to the Lin family, and King Beijing Jing still has to work under Prince Fu, so he will be a little worried.

"That's fine. Then you choose the sons of a few not-so-distinguished civil servant families for the first prince and the second prince." After thinking about it carefully, I feel that there is no one more suitable for the first prince to accompany the first prince than the prince of Beijing. , but I still thought about it a little more: "The sons of the Qu family and the Jiang family have been accompanied by the eldest prince and the second prince. If you send another daughter of their family to Jingting and Jing'an, it will be regarded as a kindness to these two families." comfort."

"I understand." Lin Miyan, who had a solution, arranged it very quickly, but when she summoned the accompanying female family members, she got the news from Furong from outside the palace, saying that something happened to Lin's residence.

"What's going on here? Why did something go wrong with the second sister?" After summoning the female relatives of the accompanying family today, Lin Miyan, whose face was almost frozen in laughter, patted her chest to calm down, and then let the servants I poured a cup of refreshing tea to cool off my anger: "It's fine, how could Lin Mishu be bumped into having a private meeting with a foreigner? Has grandma dealt with this matter?"

"The old lady said to the public that the outsider who had a private meeting with the second lady was the husband-in-law of the second lady whom the Lin family favored, and then said that the marriage had been arranged long before the Duke of the country passed away, but the timing was not right. It's father's filial piety and national mourning, so it hasn't been publicized." Fu Rong asked all the waiters to leave, handed Lin Miyan a plate of candied fruit, and said, "Fortunately, that person is from the same family as Uncle Guo, and the two of them are still in the same family. They are from the same batch of Jinshi, so everyone still believed what the old lady said."

"What do you all believe? They can't find a reason to refute it, so they say they believe it, but they are actually waiting to find a joke about the Lin family." Lin Miyan rubbed her sore temples, only feeling these things Tian didn't have a good night's sleep at all: "I'm not worried about the Lin family. After all, the second sister is both a concubine and a second daughter. After Qinghe County Lord married the Lin family, it doesn't matter if she marry at a lower level. She suffered a lot of grievances. It's just that the cousin who had a private meeting with her would admit it? It's not too bad to be a classmate with her second brother. The family background is not too bad. And the other party is in his 20s. If he has already married After getting a wife, do you want the second sister to be someone's concubine? Our family can't afford to lose this person."

"It just so happens that the outsider was born as a squire, and his parents have passed away long ago, so he has not married a wife until today, but..." Furong remembered what the old lady of the Lin family asked her to pass on. The woman was really speechless: "The outsider has a grandmother in his house, and there is a grand-niece in his room who has been serving her all the time. On the surface, it seems that her natal family committed crimes and has nowhere to go, but in fact..."

"It's a child bride for him." It's not that Lin Miyan has never seen such a thing. If there is a sign of appearance among the relatives who go to the big family, it is very likely that they are thinking about that: "No, it is not right to say that it is a child bride." She is too flattering. If you really look at it as a granddaughter-in-law, why didn't you spend money early on to get the girl's low status in the government, and then let your grandson marry that girl? To put it bluntly, I still feel that my grandniece is not good enough for my grandson , so while looking for a better one, while raising the grandniece, I plan to point the grandniece to the grandson as a concubine when the granddaughter-in-law comes in."

Although Lin Miyan didn't want to see her because Lin Mishu always wanted to enter the palace, she didn't want others to count her family like this, otherwise the Lin family would be looked down upon: "Since that person is the classmate of the second brother, he is just If you are the son of a squire, then you are also an official of the seventh or eighth rank?"

"I heard that it's from the eighth grade's photo mill, and the empress asked what it was for." Fu Rong didn't answer.

"What to do? Give him a wake-up call." Lin Miyan explained: "There are rules for taking concubines in this dynasty. It stands to reason that seventh-rank and eighth-rank officials can only accept one concubine who is a post. It’s not like she’s over [-] years old and childless, what is she trying to do in such a hurry to take a concubine? Does she want to show her face to the family of the main wife? Besides, the girl went to her relatives because of something wrong with her family, so it’s not a big deal How can a girl from a good family go to the government to talk about posts."

"The old lady also said the same thing, so I asked Uncle Guo to clarify certain things with that person." Furong said in a low voice, "If you want the two families to get married, then the in-laws must send the girl's deed of prostitution and wait for the two to marry each other." A few years after Miss gave birth to a son-in-law, the Lin family is willing to pay the government to cancel the girl's low status, and then raise her as a concubine in a serious manner. Or the second lady will bring a maid from Lin's mansion to be a good concubine as soon as the second lady enters the door At that time, unless that cousin is promoted to the fifth rank by the outsider, I am afraid that she can only be like Aunt Xu and Aunt Wang, and can only be a lowly concubine with no name or title."

You must know that the treatment of concubines with posts and concubines without posts is very different.

The ones who put up the posts are noble concubines and good concubines, who can call each other sisters with the mistress, even if they commit a crime, they cannot be dealt with casually, otherwise it will be a crime of life if they go to the government.

The concubine's room without a post says it's the master, but it's actually no different from the real room. Even if the mistress beats him to death, no one gets involved. Even if he is scolded for being jealous, he can't really kill the concubine Divorce his wife in the name of the chamber.After all, to put it bluntly, this kind of concubine is still a maid who sells herself to the master's house. As long as the safety of the heirs is not involved, the government will consider it a family matter. Can a housewife not deal with a domestic slave?

"How did they answer?"

"They said that a few days later they sent the girl's contract of sale." Furong said in a low voice, "The new son-in-law even put up a copybook as a guarantee, but Aunt Wang also asked a girl who had just lost her lowly status to follow the second lady. Dowry in the past."

"A girl with a child? It's just that she lost her humble status?" Lin Miyan didn't think that the aunt who came over from the old lady would take the initiative to send her daughter a dowry maid.

"Yes. I heard from my mother that she was the only one in that girl's family who lost her lowly registration, and the current household registration is hung in Li's mother's house." Fu Rong sighed: "It's just that, the marriage with Ji's family will be ruined, so The old lady asked me to beg you to deal with the next season's family affairs."

"I just became a queen not long ago, and the Lin family didn't even do anything to my credit, but instead let me clean up the mess. What's the reason?" Lin Miyan felt that the Lin family seemed to underestimate her, so she asked Furong brought these words to the old lady of the Lin family, and then asked the eldest grandson of the second wife of the Ji family to accompany the third son of the emperor to read, which can be regarded as a comfort to the Ji family.

After Furong left, Lin Miyan summoned Li Fu, who was guarding the door, turned the tea noodles with a tea cover and said, "You heard it all."

"Go back to your mother, this slave can hear you clearly." Li Fu bent down and said, "Forgive me for saying it bluntly, what happened to the second young miss is too strange, this slave will definitely check it out for your mother. There is also the matter of Shun's concubine reselling the palace regulations. , the slave also found out."

"Well! What's the situation then?"

"The situation is the same as the empress thought, and the family is still restless." Li Fu's eyes flashed a cold light, and he stepped forward and wrote the word "Xiao" on Lin Miyan's palm.
