The Harem of the Qing Dynasty - the next era

On the eve of the Empress Dowager's birthday, Zhaohui, the second-class Duke of Wu Yi, passed away due to injury and illness. Hongli came to the funeral in person. Widows, orphans and young children all receive pensions.

There is an anecdote among the people, talking about Taiyue's embarrassing situation as a human being: If you want to be too sad, the relationship is not enough; if you want to ignore it, outsiders will see the joke.Even if it was as expensive as the East Palace, Yongxi would be able to drink a pot of it if something like this happened.

Zhaohui breathed a sigh of relief, and challenged the Prince Zong from the outside to the inside. There is no need to elaborate on the changes in the court situation. If the daughter-in-law dies and her father dies, the husband can't ignore it, right?

Han Ling also came to condolences to her daughter-in-law: "You rest for two days, and we will talk after the first seven days of Duke Wu Yi!"

Wu Yashi begged: "My daughter-in-law wants to go back to her mother's house."

Han Ling forbade: "You are Prince Fujin, how many people are watching!"

Wu Yashi remained silent, Yongxi couldn't bear it: "Emiang, can you send someone out of the palace to have a look? It would be nice to meet the old lady and Mrs. Yakeshan."

"Yeah!" Han Ling pondered for a moment, and then said to Cheng Xue, "You can go for the fourth family."

Zhaohui's stepmother is Jueluogege from the royal family. When Zhaohui was here, her stepson was kind to her, and got along well with her stepdaughter, who became the princess-to-be. But one reality that cannot be changed is that, With the death of her husband, the situation of the widow became embarrassing accordingly - especially she had a biological son who was about to be eight years old!In the future, orphans and widows will probably only be able to rely on their stepson.

Of course, Wu Yashi didn't want to see the incident of his brothers fighting the wall. Chengxue went out of the palace according to the order, and after annoyed Jueluo Shi, she said to Yakeshan: "It's not easy for Sifujin to leave the palace. The second uncle is still young, and the father-in-law's We can only rely on my uncle to make decisions about the future, and when the old man goes to funeral, our prince will definitely bring the emperor and grandson to pay his respects."

Ya Keshan bowed and agreed, and then replied to Cheng Xue: "Auntie, please report to Fujin on your behalf. Ama's funeral is handled by slaves, and Erniang is taken care of by slaves and husbands. Taking care of younger brothers is a slave's job. Fujin just serves Good queen mother and master, take good care of the clan prince and the two younger elder brothers, although the servants are not worthy, they must not damage the dignity of Ama and Fujin."

Although he has mother and child status, Yakeshan is not a few years younger than his stepmother, and Jue Luo is not a coquettish fox who is mad at Yuan and is worthy of his superiors. Yakeshan, who has been fighting all the year round, has no grudge against Jue Luo. Lan Tai and his eldest son are the same age!

"Your servant has written it down." Cheng Xue bowed to Jueluo, "Fujin remembers the second uncle, and made a pair of new shoes for the servant to send out. Please ask the old lady to urge the second uncle to make progress. Master generally promotes the reputation of the family and establishes a family, so don't live up to Fujin's expectations."

Jue Luoshi ironed the post in his heart: "please don't worry about Fujin, everything is fine at home, although Zalantai is not easy to go to school, his brother is also filial, he can teach both civil and military skills, only the filial piety comes first, slave mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can't take advantage of it Entering the palace, Fujin may have something on his mind, so I can only ask my aunt to enlighten me more."

"It should be." Cheng Xue nodded secretly: that's it, as long as the Yue family can figure it out, Yuqing Palace will have at least one trouble from Xiaoqiang.

Cheng Xue was not unfounded: the hurricane in the harem never stopped from beginning to end.

The Empress Dowager is seventy-four, and although she is currently in good health, she still has some thoughts of fear of death, so Hongli made a statement on the spot at the family banquet: "Emiang's jade body is peaceful, and I will pass on the throne to my heir when I wait for her [-]th birthday." Your Majesty, serve Erniang to tour the world, and comfort Erniang for a lifetime of hard work."

"I'm looking forward to that day!" The Empress Dowager smiled slightly, "We all have to be well."

Yongxi led the kings and younger brothers to invite wine for birthday, Hongli narrowed his eyes and asked, "Yongxi is 26 years old, and in 26 years, the Empress Dowager will celebrate her [-]th birthday. How many Gengchen should Miankai be?"

Han Ling replied on his behalf: "Mian Kai has passed his thirties, and Mian En Mian De should be his grandfather. The emperor has a grandson, and the empress dowager and below have six generations under one roof. This is a blessing that can be expected and expected."

The empress dowager said with a smile: "I'm afraid that it will be difficult. I'm not as good as the empress who knows how to keep in good health."

Hongli continued: "The harem is the queen's territory, the queen is blessed, we all want to benefit from her."

The concubine Ling rose up again and again: "The emperor made a slip of the tongue, and should be punished with a glass of wine!"

"Huh?" Hongli restrained his expression, "How do you say it?"

The concubine Ling said solemnly: "Is it the king's land in the whole world? The harem is within the king's land. Although the empress is the lord of the six palaces, she always acts according to the emperor's wishes in every word and deed. The emperor just said that the six palaces belong to the empress. The concubines occupy the position of imperial concubine, so naturally they want to complain for the empress."

Hongli was startled, looked at Han Ling and asked with a smile, "What did the Queen say?"

"The imperial concubine should be rewarded!" Han Ling nodded, "Since Empress Xiaojing passed away, the ministers and concubines lived in the sixth palace, thinking about what the emperor thinks, and being anxious about what the emperor is anxious about. Fame, the words of the concubine, and the wishes of the ministers and concubines, the emperor can give justice to the ministers and concubines, why have the concubines ever done something that did not take the emperor's wishes into consideration?"

"I was just joking, but I taught you to grasp the handle." Hongli happily said, "Send the music box tributed by Belgium to the Queen's Palace, and give the glass mirror kept by the House of Internal Affairs to Concubine Ling. !"

One queen and one concubine heard the decree to thank her, and the empress dowager suddenly realized something when she looked at her concubine Ling.

No one here is troublesome, and it can't be seen that the emperor is obviously jealous of the queen's family.

Asking about Mian Kai's age is intended to beat Yongxi: With Lao Tzu around for a day, the dragon chair will not have your thoughts!You are 26 years old this year, and in another 26 years, the Empress Dowager will be 81 years old, and I will be [-] years old. Even if you have adopted your grandson as a great-grandfather, you will still be obediently waiting.

Han Ling is not easy either. Following her own efforts to implement the practice of "men outside the house and women inside, the six palaces are up and down, and the queen is respected", the noble concubine Shujia used to contend with the theory of "the queen mother is supreme". Now the concubine Ling is even more clever. Speaking for himself, but actually catering to Hongli's favor, offering the theory of "the family and the country are one, and the emperor is respected by the former court and the harem", which is really brilliant.

Of course Concubine Ling is not a good opponent, and she never thought of fighting Jingren Palace in a situation where there is a huge disparity in strength. Naturally, there is a reason for the small test today.

Before parting, Concubine Ling deliberately reminded Han Ling: "My lord, Yong Yan is already five years old, he is not a shameful child!"

The fourteenth elder brother Yong Lu and the fifteenth elder brother Yong Yan are twin brothers born to the concubine Ling. Regardless of the conspiracy, one reality that cannot be escaped is that "twins" are an ominous omen, and the concubine knocked out her teeth and Xue Tun, I can only blame my own fate, but after all, the two children are the flesh and blood that fell from their bodies. Even a child like Yong Lu who is not raised by her side and is not recorded in her name, should have the kindness of love. The heart may not be reduced by one point, and because of avoiding suspicion, Ling Fei rarely has the opportunity to meet Yong Lu face to face. As time goes on, the yearning for her son will naturally become deeper and deeper.

However, what makes the concubine most unacceptable is that Yong Lu was crooked by the empress!

It's not that Han Ling intends to kill or raise Yong Lu, she just has that thought, and she doesn't have the conditions to carry it out - the empress dowager and the emperor are watching over her!What makes the concubine dissatisfied is Yong Lu's attitude towards her twin brother.

Han Ling raises Yong Lu according to the treatment of a concubine son, and Yong Lu also regards herself as Han Ling's biological son. As we all know, because of Lord Qianlong's troubles in the early years, the difference between the concubine prince and the concubine prince is quite large, because of the taboo of twins. The problem is that Yong Lu and Yong Yan can't appear on the stage at the same time, and the prince himself is a front-line job. If the concubine Ling can decide, she will definitely treat the two sons fairly. at the end.

Yong Lu and Mian Kai are the same age, and they are basically a pair of inseparable playmates. According to the patriarchal clan, Mian Kai was the third son of the emperor in the Qing Dynasty, second only to the emperor's ancestor and emperor's father, which means, As long as there are more than three people, Mian Kai has the absolute qualification to play.

Mian Kai is only five years old this year, and has not been formally conferred (his father does not have the official title of crown prince). He does not have to attend some central meetings, and continues to extend: On occasions where Mian Kai can participate, Yong Lu, who is an uncle can participate.

Those who are full will remind Han Ling: Yong Yan should stay away from places where Yong Lu appears. For the sake of fairness, it is best for the two brothers to appear on the scene in turn.

Zhengdan, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Shengshou, Wanshou, Qianqiu—all occasions, without exception, are attended by Yonglu, and Yongyan is basically the role of a transparent person.

It doesn't matter if the child is young, they are sensible now, and they always suffer from unfair treatment like this.

Concubine Ling didn't mention it, and Han Ling didn't think about it; since people had already said publicly that Han Ling didn't do anything, she might be suspected of "di mother dereliction of duty".

Waking up early the next day, Han Ling called Yong Jue into Jingren Palace.

"Please confer the title?" Yong Jue was greatly surprised, "Emiang, the fifteenth brother is only five years old, right?"

"Sit down." Han Ling beckoned, "Do you think your Ama can agree?"

Yong Jue shook his head: "Emiang, there is something you don't know. Last time Qiu Mi, Ama once said about being a knight."

Han Ling was taken aback: "Huh?"

Yong Jue explained: "Ama self-censored that the conferring of titles in the past was too casual, so she told the clan's family and the Ministry of Rites to know, 'In addition to rehabilitating and conferring titles, and granting titles for meritorious service, please inherit the old titles. Tweeting the clan, with five years as a fixed period, it is enough to relieve the hard work of the ministers!'”

Han Ling suddenly realized: "Next year will be the 30th year of Qianlong, isn't it just the year of the title?"

"Emiang, what Ama said is obviously meant to rectify the order of titles. From now on, when a prince is first awarded a title, he must take the occasion of his big wedding and start a family. The fifteenth brother is the youngest, for no reason, how could it be possible for Ama?" Make an exception for him?" Yong Jue still didn't say a word: Yong Yan was originally disliked by the emperor's father, even if he made an exception, it would not be his fault. The thirteenth brother Yongjing.

"That's all!" Han Ling's idea, it is best to give Yong Yan a title in advance, let him go out of the palace and open the mansion to be included in the rank of foreign ministers, now it seems that this method may not work.
