The Harem of the Qing Dynasty - the next era

On the surface, the Queen's punishment of Wei Guiren was fair and impartial, but in reality it was not: the time for the removal of the green card was not fixed, and the time limit for the confinement was not specified. If this continues, Wei Guiren will not be far away from the second concubine Yi .

However, things backfired. Turnarounds are always brewing in crisis. Prince Yi’s Mansion surrendered to Jingren Palace but failed to push Wei Guiren into the abyss.

Anyway, Mrs. Wei is the emperor's woman, and she is also an old man of Changchun Palace who had the righteousness to protect Empress Xiaojing. Han Ling wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so the Empress Dowager Chongqing intervened when her son paid her respects: "I heard that Mrs. Wei's family is poor, and she has been angered by the queen these years. Life in the harem is not easy. She has never committed any crime. You have to take care of the queen and turn a blind eye. I am afraid that outsiders will slander the royal family for being heartless and the emperor is cold."

Wei Guiren saved Empress Xiaojing, copied the blood scriptures for the Empress Dowager, and was convicted for Empress Xiaojing’s seven-year ritual. Just looking at the resume, it was all the way to fame, but it’s a pity that she met an unreasonable Empress Nala , after being bullied for more than ten years, Han Ling still endured a lot of criticism out of sympathy for the disadvantaged.

Hongli had no choice but to decree: "Order Fu Heng to take care of Wei Qingtai's funeral!"

Han Ling's self-cultivation was still not enough, so she glanced at the maid who was cleaning the broken porcelain, gritted her teeth and said to Zhang Lei: "Pass down the decree of my palace, to avoid the embarrassment of Wei nobles, and allocate 200 taels of silver as compensation."

Cheng Shuang had no choice but to remind Han Ling: "Master, everyone from the top to the bottom praised you, only one thing, Wei Guiren seems too innocent in front of you, you are a good person, but in front of Wei Guiren, you are a wicked person, wouldn't you treat her as a villain?" Than being a good person among good people? Apart from other things, Long Live Lord has become more and more sympathetic to her."

"Blame me, blame me!" Through Wei Guiren's matter, Han Ling finally figured out a truth: the more you hate a person, the more you have to confide in her on the surface, just like now, Concubine Yu suddenly became seriously ill and appointed No one doubted about Jingren Palace. If it was Mrs. Wei, she could have something to do with the Empress if she lost a single hair. It is really a wish of God not to fulfill one's wish, "Decree Shu Concubine, Wei Guiren's father was busy with Empress Xiaojing's legal affairs, so he became sick from overwork and passed away in his prime. This palace understands Wei's loyalty and filial piety, and specially allows Wei Guiren to return to the palace. Concubine Shu will send palace servants to accompany her, and she has already left the palace, and will return before the time is up, if there is any mistake, she will be severely punished!"

This is just the beginning, and the queen's aggrievedness is still accumulating.

Yongxi is fifteen years old, long past the age of assigning a concubine. In this general election, the aristocratic family is waiting and watching: Will Prince Zong assign Fujin?

What Hongli meant was that at least two concubines should be chosen for his son to serve him, but Yongxi insisted on refusal, beating around the bush and tormenting his mother for a long time, Han Ling understood: he wanted to marry the main wife first.

The empress vetoed the proposal: "Ancestors rule that when marrying Fujin, the concubine should kneel down to greet him. How can there be any reason for marrying a wife first and then accepting the concubine?"

Yong Xi smiled and said: "Emiang, the sage said 'cultivate the body, govern the family, rule the country and the world', my son is not yet able to manage the family, you need to give him three years to prepare."

"You've already—why are you still twitching—" You are sure that your son has no physical problems, and Han Ling thinks that he has psychological obstacles, "Marrying a wife and having children is the principle of human relations. At today's age, Grandpa Sheng is still a few years earlier!"

Yongxi said in a low voice: "Emiang, together with Huang'eniang, Ama treats you the best. If that's the case, you should have been established as the next Fujin. That's not the case. Why are you struggling like this? My son doesn't want to follow Ama I want to leave the best seat to the person I want to give it the most, she hasn't shown her face yet, my son would rather wait for a while—"

"Why do you think like this?" Han Ling's eyes widened, "Wife, Qi Ye, the choice is based on family background, how could it be possible to choose the right wife based on your likes and dislikes?"

Yongxi frowned: "Emiang, a manly man, making meritorious deeds is the foundation of life, why bother to spend so much energy in the inner curtains, the son married Fujin, it is enough to be filial to his parents and raise children, one more person and one more Right from wrong, my son doesn't want to be distracted by housework."

Han Ling was half dumbfounded: "Do you still know who you are?"

Yongxi asked back: "Emiang, if Fujin can give birth to a child, what is the need for the son to take care of him?"

Han Ling had no choice but to make a deep analysis: "Cian Fujin's natal family will help you in the future."

Yongxi disagreed: "My son's future lies with Ama and Erniang. All the families in the world are servants of the royal family. As long as my son upholds the heart of justice, are you afraid that they will hinder him?"

Han Ling finally compromised: "Tell me, what do you want me to do!"

Regarding the lifelong affairs of Prince Zong, regardless of the Empress Dowager, she only has the right to advise, not to make decisions. It is his own father, Emperor Qianlong, who can make the final decision.

Based on the principle of prudence, Hongli agreed not to directly select the prince and concubine Wang Zhengfei in this big selection. He assigned a task to his mother and daughter-in-law: from this year, the empress dowagers and empresses of the two palaces can often order young women of the right age to leave their brands. Greetings when women enter the palace, and choose the candidate for the future empress with the attitude of choosing the best among the best.

Aristocratic families all have their own news channels, and the emperor's harem is like this. Sending a daughter into the palace is like being cannon fodder. There are five vacancies for the sixth concubine. , If you can get a concubine with a strong stomach, if you work hard, you will die alone forever!That being the case, simply keep the girls with good quality and fight for a place in Prince Zong's backyard.

Because of this, Qianlong's 18-year challenge was obviously much weaker.

Hongli didn't mean to add newcomers. When people reach middle age, they can't help being greedy for newcomers. He prefers Jiangnan beauties like Changchunyuan Simei, even if there are no Ulanara and Dai Jia. One or two beautiful women is not bad, since the empress dowager chose such two people to enter the palace as concubines according to his preferences, naturally there is no need to do more and expand the harem.

"The concubine Ulanara and the servant Dai Jia pay their respects to the empress." The concubine's first conferment is considered a great grace. Among the old people in the mansion, except Hanling who was first conferred as Xian noble concubine and Gao who was first conferred as imperial concubine Concubine Su was the only one who won this honor because of the birth of the third elder brother, and she was concubine when she was first conferred. If it wasn't for easing the relationship with Shoukang Palace, it would be impossible for these two to receive such a high qidin at the same time.

"Two sisters, please come up!" Han Ling frowned: "These two people are the default concubines, and they haven't received an official notice yet. Dai Jia is still doing his job, but Ulanara is a little impatient." .

The person involved didn't realize it: "The empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

Han Ling said: "The emperor has sent a decree to the Ministry of Rites, ordering the Qin Tianjian to choose an auspicious day to handle the canonization of the two younger sisters. The emblems are determined by the palace. The sister Ulanara is the Xiang concubine and lives in the main hall of Jingyang Palace; the sister Dai Jia For Concubine Xin, as the head of Yongshou Palace, if the bedroom is not satisfactory, it will be fine to order the House of Internal Affairs to arrange it again."

"Concubine—the empress, concubine has something to say—" Dai Jia was about to say thank you, but was suddenly interrupted by Ulanara beside him, looked at him blankly, stopped talking and stood back. Behind Concubine Ying.

"Huh?" The hesitation on Han Ling's face flashed, "Speak!"

Ulanara said: "Empress, my concubine heard that the Jingyang Palace used to be Concubine Yi's bedroom. It is unlucky for Concubine Yi to die. Concubine does not want to live in that kind of place."

Concubine Jia said in her heart: relying on her relationship with the empress dowager, she even picked out the bedroom. I am afraid that I will suffer a lot in the future.

Han Ling patiently explained: "Jingyang Palace is adjacent to Ningshou Palace, I teach you to live there, it would be cheaper to pay your respects to the Empress Dowager."

Ulanara blurted out, "Your Majesty, concubines don't think it's a long way."

"I understand what you mean." Han Ling nodded, "Concubine Jia!"

Concubine Jia stood up: "My lord!"

Han Ling ordered: "Clean up the back hall of the Yonghe Palace and teach Concubine Xiang to live in it."

"This—" Concubine Jia was shot while lying down, "Your Majesty, Sister Xiang Concubine is in charge—"

Han Ling didn't take it seriously: "According to the rules of the ancestors, except for the empress living in the Kunning Palace, there are twelve heads in the East and West Six Palaces, that is, one imperial concubine, two imperial concubines, four imperial concubines, five concubines, and the holy ancestor Kangxi. According to Ye’s family law, there are six concubines in the harem. Based on this, concubines can live in the harem as the main seat, or they can be attached to the main seat. Xiang’s concubine does not want to live in Jingyang Palace. You move there, it is naturally the best of both worlds, an impeccable choice!"

"Empress!" Ulanara was dumbfounded, "The concubine is the niece of the empress dowager—"

Han Ling smiled faintly: "If you weren't the niece of your mother, the Empress Dowager, you would have been expelled from the palace by now."

Ulanara shamelessly confessed: "Empress, my concubine is willing to move to Jingyang Palace!"

Concubine Yu accompanied her with a smile and said: "My lord, my sister Xiang is young and doesn't know the rules of the palace. Please forgive her for the sake of my mother, the Empress Dowager."

Seeing Concubine Jia and Concubine Shu came to help, Han Ling borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, because she said to Ulanara: "I think you have just entered the harem, and now you don't blame the past, and if you want to talk about palace affairs, I will definitely not tolerate you! "

Ulanara's face was flushed from holding back, and she reluctantly responded: "The concubine respectfully obeys the empress's instructions."

Everyone was worried: such a silly elder sister came in, relying on her relationship with the empress dowager, she might have some troubles in the future, even the empress would be wary, and they would have even more headaches.

Next, Concubine Xiang perfectly interpreted the true meaning of "If you don't work, you won't die". Before the "sisters" in the harem came to greet her, she lowered her head and slammed her head against the wall. pushed out.
