The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

Jia Daishan did not give an answer right away, but analyzed the pros and cons: "First, being an emperor also requires growth.

Only after he has gone through hardships and tempered himself, will he cherish those courtiers who are in front of the saddle and behind the horse.

If it goes too smoothly, he will become a cold-blooded king who only respects me.

Second, there will always be traces of what has been done.

Once His Majesty finds out that you are manipulating behind the scenes, he will probably start to fear you.

Not to mention that you are husband and wife, you are not a young couple, nor are you childhood sweethearts.

From the day you became a queen, you and Your Majesty are no longer an ordinary couple.

You are not only those in power who jointly ruled the Great Moon Dynasty, but also competitors for imperial power.

Even if His Majesty can tolerate you now, once Ze'er grows up, there will be many courtiers to follow, but you, the mother queen, are resourceful and resourceful in the prime of life.

How can His Majesty rest in peace?

You and Ze'er, our Rongfu, will be suppressed by His Majesty's jealousy.

Your Majesty needs a period of growth as an emperor.

You and Your Majesty need a period of adjustment and adaptation to find out the appropriate complementary mode.

All you have to do is to control the harem so that His Majesty has no worries.

A smart and wise queen will make the emperor suspicious.

Grandfather's opinion, don't interfere, let His Majesty Gan Gang be arbitrary.

Give yourself a chance to grow up, instead of personally meddling in the game between him and the emperor and his courtiers.

Unless His Majesty is in an emergency and needs your help, it's not too late to act. "

Xiao Huajing was deeply shocked.

She never thought that the story of the deceased Empress Yuan and Emperor Jiahe would one day happen between her and Emperor Qianyuan.

Xiao Huajing expressed her worries: "The granddaughter is not full of energy. The imperial envoy sent back news yesterday that the money for disaster relief is seriously insufficient. The county government with 5000 people is less than five thousand silver, and the head is less than one or two silver. Even if you eat porridge, you can eat it." How many days?

As a queen, the granddaughter is honored by her mother, so she can't just watch the people starve to death and remain indifferent, can she? "

Jia Dai said kindly: "Well, it's true that we can't stand by and watch this matter.

However, before the three princes left Beijing, the emperor summoned them and gave them the right to act cheaply.When necessary, they can raise donations on the spot, and there should be no problem supporting them until the end of the year.

His Majesty also issued a clear decree that even if those old things don't work very hard, they will definitely not dare to let all the victims of the disaster starve to death.

The Empress can launch a fundraising campaign in the Imperial Order of Kyoto.

The empress threw bricks and stones to attract jade, and donated all the salary for one year, and the income of all the farms for one year. This way, it will definitely lead the noble ladies in Kyoto to follow suit.

Conservatively, 50 silver is no problem.Niangniang can also directly raise food, break the ice at the beginning of the new year, and deliver directly to the disaster area.To ensure the normal spring plowing of the people. "

Xiao Huajing was overjoyed, and saluted her grandfather with blessings: "Grandpa should pay attention to it. You are right. It is His Majesty's duty to crack down on corrupt officials. I will do my best to help."

The annual income is 1000 taels, and the salary is [-] taels.

After Xiao Huajing returned to the palace, she first ventilated with the empress dowager.

The Empress Dowager supports Xiao Hua Jing and is willing to donate a set of gold and jade jewelry for the charity sale of Xiao Hua Jing.

The empress dowager knew that if she gave out the money, the empress, the harem, and those who had orders would be bound.

Silver can only be less but not more.

The empress dowager's jewelry is all made inside, and its invisible value can be said to be invaluable.If it falls into the homes of ordinary people, it can be used as a family heirloom.

Xiao Huajing thought it was good for the empress dowager to pay attention.

The money in the hands of concubines in the harem is limited, but they have treasures that are not available outside.

Xiao Huajing decides not to reach out to others in vain, but learns the method of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to deal with the confiscation of property of criminal officials, and holds a small bidding banquet, where the highest bidder wins.

The next day, Xiaohuajing launched a fundraiser in the East Sixth Palace.

Because of the guidance of the empress dowager's two sets of jewelry, the East Sixth Palace has raised six sets of gold jewelry from the internal manufacturing office.

The old ladies of the West Sixth Palace are grateful to Xiao Huajing for saving them, so that they can still be masters and empresses with dignity and dignity.

Thirty masters and concubines donated seventy sets of gold and jade jewelry.

Every piece comes from the internal manufacturing office.

This shows that Emperor Jiahe's harem is more confident.

Xiao Huajing was a little embarrassed, and she quietly added six sets of gold and jade jewelry to make up twelve sets.Including the two sets of jewelry donated by the Empress Dowager, there are 84 sets of jewelry in total.

Some jewelry is dull in color, and the small flower essences are sent to the manufacturing office.

The gold wares are deep-fried, the jade wares are cleaned and polished, and they are paired with a mahogany jewelry box with the imprint of the office inside.

It's really good to see, and there are selling points.

Xiao Huajing also gave a product introduction for each set of jewelry, indicating which master the set of jewelry came from and who the donor was.Leave a blank to add the buyer's name after bidding.

This file will be kept to record the whereabouts of the jewelry, as well as the good deeds of the harem concubines and the auctioneers.

The sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Xiao Huajing sent gold-plated invitations to the dignitaries, nobles and relatives of the Kyoto family as if spreading a carpet.

For the queen's flower viewing feast, all the ladies and gentlemen of Kyoto came together.

Xiaohuajing held a camellia banquet in Jiaotai Hall, and there were 130 noble ladies present at the meeting.

Among them, there are 64 wives.

What Xiaohuajing invites is the imperial order above the third rank.

The fate of the third rank is bitter, Xiao Huajing can't bear to do it.

The amount of the little flower essence charity sale exceeded the budget of grandfather Jia Daishan.

Because Jia's mother, Jia Min, and Wang's Yang family supported Xiaohuajing's estate, a set of gold ornaments for the empress dowager was bought by Jia's mother for 1 taels.

Another set of Hetian jade jewelry for the Empress Dowager was successfully bid by Jia Min at a cost of 2000 taels.

The six sets of jewelry donated by the queen Xiao Huajing were all auctioned back by Jia Min Wang's Yang family at a price of [-] silver.

This is Xiao Huajing's appointment with her natal family before.

Produced by Neizaoban, it is a gift from Concubine De and Min, so it can be photographed by others.

Her natal family's dowry jewelry can't leak a single bit.

As a result, all six sets were returned to Zhao.

In this way, all 84 sets of jewelry were sold out, and a total of 68 taels of donations were received.

The edicts and noble daughters of these people participating in the bidding, Xiaohuajing, are specially registered and recorded, as a reference for future marriage and canonization.

Kou Gong is launching a donation in the Sixth Bureau and One Division, with a goal of 4000 taels to donate, and the total is 69.

Xiaohuajing was very moved.

Not all the female officials in the palace are like little flower spirits with full purses.

At the beginning, Ma Shangxiang, a noble lady, entered the palace with only a small bank note of 200 taels.

One year's salary is less than a hundred taels, and there is still a need for filial piety.

Xiao Huajing thought, when these female officials get married in the future, reward them with some dowry.

Xiaohuajing did not come forward to buy food.

It was freezing cold, she was in the harem, and no one could take care of her.

She decided to give up the limelight to Emperor Qianyuan.

Emperor Qianyuan is actually in a bit of an embarrassing situation now: the inner treasury is in the hands of Emperor Jiahe, and the silver in the outer treasury is less than one million.

It is impossible for a country not to leave even the salaries of ministers.

In addition to donating 69 yuan to Emperor Qianyuan, Xiao Huajing also donated the harvest and salary of the previous year.

A total of 1000 taels.

Among them are the income from the [-]-mu Huangzhuang rewarded by Emperor Jiahe, and the income from the [-]-mu Huangzhuang that Emperor Qianyuan gave as a betrothal gift.The rest is the income from Xiaohuajing's dowry farm orchard.

Generally speaking, only half of the grain in the farm is sold, and half is kept as a reserve.

Xiaohuajing's bonus of 50 last year was given to Emperor Qianyuan early in the morning.

Now that another 2 taels have been paid out, Emperor Qianyuan's eyes were a little red, holding Xiaohuajing's hand, he was very emotional: "I have Zitong, just like Li Shimin got the eldest grandson, very lucky!"

Xiao Huajing hurriedly saluted and said modestly: "Your Majesty is too famous, and I am ashamed to be a concubine."

Emperor Qianyuan grabbed the little flower essence and didn't ask her to salute: "If I say I can afford it, I can afford it."

Then he returned Xiaohuajing's 2 taels: "You must save some money to buy some sugar for Ze'er, and a flower for Qing'er.

Didn't Zitong come out with six sets of jewelry, that's enough. "

Xiao Huajing said: "The concubine follows His Majesty, so she will never go hungry.

Chen Qie's grandmother also returned those jewelry to Chen Qie. "

Emperor Qianyuan nodded: "Well, Rong Mansion and Lin Mansion are both homes of good deeds."

Xiao Huajing was busy saluting: "I thank Your Majesty for your praise on behalf of my mother's family."

He also said: "Before collecting donations, the ministers and concubines saw that everyone was eager to donate, and they were anxious about the court's urgency. When they got hot, they agreed on behalf of His Majesty. On the occasion of the New Year, I will reward every donator with a word of blessing. Please forgive me." The crime of beheading the courtiers and concubines first and playing later."

Emperor Qianyuan's heart was hot, but he squinted and said: "Okay, the girl is very courageous."

It was clearly written on that face: Please, please!

Xiao Huajing cooperated very well, she tugged on Emperor Qianyuan's cuff: "Your Majesty, you should obey, otherwise the concubine will lose face very much, and I won't dare to do it next time."

Emperor Qianyuan couldn't help but smile: "Zi Tong is really a silly girl, why should I ask for some small things, I will, not only the blessings of every family, but also New Year's Eve greetings, these people can give a banquet."

It is a great honor for the courtiers to attend the annual banquet in Qianqing Palace.

This year's New Year's banquet, Xiaohuajing fulfilled her original promise, and every order to donate silver had a banquet in Jiaotai Hall (the Queen Mother's filial piety is complete).

The husbands of the imperial courts have become the guests of Qianqing Palace.

Emperor Qianyuan was still in the palace of the Qianqing Palace and splashed ink, bestowing a blessing on every courtier who generously donated money.

Xiaohuajing is here in Jiaotai Hall, hosting a banquet for Gaoming and your noble daughter.

Xiaohuajing's filial piety period has not yet expired, so she cannot drink alcohol.

Therefore, let Princess Shuiqing make a toast on her behalf to everyone who gave generously.

At the end of the banquet, the three princes came to toast the imperial court on behalf of Emperor Qianyuan.

Xiao Huajing gave each of the royal ladies and noble ladies who participated in the banquet an imperial blessing bag: inside it was a pair of jade ruyis made by the inner court, and four golden scorpions for the number one scholar and the first prize.

Through this year's banquet, all civil and military officials and nobles of the Qing Dynasty knew a secret: that is, Emperor Qianyuan loved the queen very much.

These edicts were all put away because of the lack of canonization ceremony before.

The thousand-thousand-year-old cry at the time of farewell was extraordinarily pious.
