The Harem of the Qing Dynasty - the next era

For Queen Nala, the 27th year of Qianlong was definitely a period of low ebb.

In the first half of the year, Wu De, the eldest brother representing the Huifanara family, was ransacked; in the second half of the year, the Sixth Palace held a harem feudal ceremony that was extremely unfavorable to Jingren Palace.

The list of the big seals this time is as follows: Concubine Jia was conferred the title of Concubine; Concubine Ling was conferred the title of Concubine Ling; Concubine Rong was granted the title of Concubine Rong, who entered the Chuxiu Palace as the main seat after Concubine Chunyi; Ula, who entered the palace as a regular The Nala family was promoted to noble; the two official daughters who were favored by the emperor, the Qin family of Qixiang Palace and the Ma family of Zhongcui Palace, both agreed.

The scale of the harem at this time was still quite spectacular. From the queen down, there was one noble concubine, together with the fourth concubine and the fifth concubine, a total of eleven lords. , where there are always 22 concubines.

Of course Han Ling would not be happy: the structure of the four concubines was broken, and the second-ranked Concubine Jia became a golden concubine under one person. If she had to make a mistake, she was the rightful head of the six palaces. ?Always cut her off as soon as possible to prevent any future troubles.

Concubine Yu is fine, she is mentally prepared, this is an era when it is difficult for a daughter-in-law to compete with her mother-in-law, as the saying goes, "If you want to take it, you must give it first." Having swallowed all the hatred, why is it so difficult to bow to the old Shangfeng?Referring to the end of the imperial concubine Chunyi, why bother to be a target of public criticism who blocks the future of others?

Concubine Shu and Wanfei are even more calm. One lacks qualifications and bears taint; the other has only qualifications and few worries. Holding the current position is considered a victory, and naturally there is no performance of high-mindedness and low-handedness.

There are also unhappy ones, such as Xiangpin.

Concubine Xiang has no children, and she has been a queen countless times in her dreams, and she will not feel that she has the good luck to be promoted to concubine when she wakes up (the only possibility is that all the concubines and concubines die, otherwise I will definitely not be able to beat the concubine who has children. , Concubine Xin, Concubine Yu who was pregnant before, and Concubine Ying, the oldest one), what makes her uncomfortable is that a new sister with the same surname has been added to Liugong.

As we all know, Concubine Xiang can gain a foothold in the harem, [-]% of which depends on Yu Yin, Empress Xiao Qixian. Now, a younger niece of the same family has come to teach her this Ulanara How can the spokesperson of the harem be so embarrassing?What's even more exasperating is that the Black Hearted Queen even rewarded her with the title of "Ji Guiren", which slaps her face, which is really deceiving too much!

That's not enough, the queen said clearly: "You were originally aunts and nephews, but now you are sisters, and now you can have a close relationship. Mrs. Jigui is young, so I entrusted her to you to take care of her."

No matter how unwilling, Concubine Xiang can only pinch her nose to recognize her. Fortunately, Mrs. Ji Gui was born as a concubine, and her eyebrows and eyes are quite high and low. She is not like a cousin. He moved to the side hall of Jingyang Palace, and he didn't want to come out to pierce the eyes and ears of his superiors.

There was good news, too. As the twelfth lunar month entered, clan prince Wang Fujin and Jiajun Wang Fujin successively spread the good news that they were pregnant.

This also exposed the biggest flaw of the Jin Guifei series: lack of stamina.

After Hongxi reversed the case, there were rumors in the market that the emperor Kangxi, the patriarch, loved his son and grandson, and intended to enshrine the eldest grandson of the emperor as the grandson of the emperor. Not establishing a grandson is an extremely wrong behavior. Although he himself wanted to imply that the emperor made up his mind to pass on the throne to the emperor's father because of himself, the fact is on the contrary. Emperor Kangxi praised Hongli after he liked Emperor Sejong. Because it involves the emperor's succession qualifications, of course this cannot be delved into.

With this kind of contradiction, the two adult emperors and grandsons of Dingjun Wang's lineage have no priority to inherit the Datong.

Further down, Yongzhang was succeeded; Yongqi had many births and many died, and the only remaining son didn't seem to be able to stand; Yongrong had no sons, Yongxuan had no sons, and no one below Yongxuan was married—— How could the foreign court ministers be inclined to a prince who doesn't even have a son?

Concubine Jin had no choice but to put aside the comfort and joy of her daughter-in-law becoming a mother-in-law for many years, and called Yongxuan and his wife to her face to ask her: "What's going on with you!"

Zhang Jia was full of grievances, but she couldn't speak out. Her husband's thoughts had never been on her.If the husband and wife are not in harmony, where can the child come from?

Yongxuan is relatively open-minded: children, when fate comes, there will be one, there is no reason to be too eager.

"Don't be sloppy with me!" Concubine Jin wanted to hit someone, "You always run to Yanxi Palace recently, do you want to be Concubine Yu's filial son?"

This year's small election, due to the huge gap, the queen's decree, all age-appropriate coats are not allowed to ask for favor and be exempted from the election. One official woman surnamed Wang was assigned to the Yanxi Palace as an errand. I can't forget the fist and fist, and I am about to make a move. Unexpectedly, the palace wall is far away from each other, and the world is very close. Fortunately, the Yonghe Palace and the Yanxi Palace are adjacent to each other.Concubine Yu has noticed something, and her family has become more and more strict. Even if Concubine Jin is suspicious, besides beating her son, it is not easy to have more quarrels with Concubine Yu for such a thing.

Yongxuan took advantage of the situation and begged: "Emiang, can you ask Concubine Yu for favors and give Yuying to her son as a side fortune?"

"Give up your thoughts!" Concubine Jin had a heart disease, and she flatly refused after hearing this, "People in my palace, you can choose whoever you like, is Yanxi Palace a place you can get your hands on?"

Yongxuan apologized and said with a smile: "My son is going to beg the Queen Mother, is it true that Concubine Yu is reluctant to reward even a palace daughter?"

Jin Guifei snorted: "You just have to try."

It would be hell if Han Ling agreed: "Be honest with me!"

Relying on the absence of Fujin, Yongxuan was able to entangle with his aunt: "Emperor Mother, my son will not ask you for anything else, only this time, you promised, my son will not disturb you, you If you don't follow, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

"Your fourth brother and your ninth brother, the current situation is like this, so it can be seen that I rewarded them with concubine?" Han Ling scolded, "Do you still have any shortcomings? In terms of character, appearance, and family background, your daughter-in-law is inferior. Who is it for? You didn’t want to give birth to the eldest son as soon as possible, but you first came up with the idea of ​​pampering your concubine and destroying your wife. Is this also the upbringing of your royal elder brother?"

Yongxuan felt a little guilty: "It is because Fujin has no success that my son has such thoughts."

"Don't play tricks with me. Can your daughter-in-law be able to give birth? Can it be hidden from my eyes and ears?" Han Ling didn't let go, because she called Zhang Lei to her and ordered, "Go and ask, what kind of seductive goblin? Concubine Yu doesn't take care of seducing the prince and elder brother."

"Emperor Niang's lesson!" Yongxuan was terrified, "This is all because of my son's self-indulgence, and has nothing to do with Yuying."

"Wait until you make such achievements that I admire, what is a mere court lady worth?" Han Ling waved Zhang Lei back, "I don't need to think about it now. Outside disturbed your back house."

Yongxuan returned home in defeat, so she had to stop her plan to ask for a reward.

Before Han Ling could figure out Concubine Yu's intentions, just as the dust fell from Zhengdan's congratulatory ceremony, Zhang Lei rushed into the hall and replied: "My lord, the eighth elder brother frightened the horse and injured his leg."

Han Ling was taken aback: "It was fine just now, how could such a thing happen?"

According to regulations, it is most common for the prince to travel in a horse-drawn carriage, but because Yongxuan's skills are ordinary, and in terms of riding and shooting, he is worse than Yongrong. Therefore, the emperor issued a warning. In order to cover the eyes and ears of the emperor, Yongxuan recently Riding a horse instead of walking, I have a lot of worries these days. When I got on the saddle, my mount was uneasy, because I stepped on the air and fell to the ground, and the horseshoe stepped on it. He moved to Yongxing's No. [-] Northern Office, and only then did he send someone to inform the imperial concubine and empress to know.

Jingren Palace is even cheaper. When Han Ling arrived at the Fifth North Institute, she had not seen the shadow of the imperial physician, so she scolded Yongxuan's attendant first: "Damn slave, can this kind of trauma be moved at will? As a brother Follow me, do you have any insight into this idea, what is the use of you?"

The little eunuch kowtowed and complained: "The empress is sagely wise, seeing the cold weather, the servant was in a hurry, so he moved the master."

"How dare you make excuses!" Han Ling scolded while looking at the injury, "Take it to the Punishment Department and give him forty boards first. It's fine if Yongxuan is fine. If there is anything wrong, beat him to death immediately!"

Zhang Lei waved his whisk, and the two servants stepped forward, gagged and dragged the little eunuch out.

Yongxuan just complained about the pain, she didn't want to plead for mercy.

Concubine Jin was so distressed that she glanced at her daughter-in-law with a swollen face, and stepped forward to ask the eldest son's situation: "My lord, how is Yongxuan's leg?"

"Not very good." Han Ling was about to elaborate, when she heard the news that the imperial physician had arrived, she stood up and ordered, "Teach them to come in."

Liu Ruilin asked for his pulse, looked at the injury, and hesitantly confessed to the two mothers of the injured: "Brother Ba had an old injury, and now he has a new one. I'm afraid it won't be completely unharmed."

Concubine Jin turned pale: "What do you mean by that?"

"Don't stay here, go out and have a trial, what's going on." Han Ling sighed, and said to the imperial physician, "Come draw up a prescription."

Yongxuan's riding and archery skills are indeed mediocre, but it's not enough to be able to suppress even a docile horse. Concubine Jin still trusts the queen, she suppresses her complacent look of being congratulated, and is about to rush towards the outer courtyard in a rage.

"Emperor Niang." Yong Xuan said with difficulty, "It's because the son lost his mind for a while, and stepped on the saddle, it has nothing to do with others."

"Is that really the case?" The sixth sense told Han Ling that Yongxuan was not completely without clues.

"Yes." Yongxuan said convincingly, "No matter how stupid my son is, can't he still not know whether he stumbled or was thrown suddenly?"

"The people who serve you are always not dedicated enough, but if they add a little bit of cleverness, there will be no disaster today." Han Ling's face turned pale, "Noble concubine, no matter how old Yongxuan is, they are all your children. You are too slack."

Concubine Jin is indisputable: "The master taught me the lesson."

The author has something to say: Looking at the unofficial history, Yongxuan seems to be a love interest!
