The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

Du Qing was a talented woman from Kyoto who was specially selected three years ago because of the vacancy of female officials in the harem.

In March this year, when the service period expires, he will leave the palace.

Because Jia Yuan is her sister-in-law, naturally she will not allow Xiao Huajing to offend Zhou Shanggong severely.

Jia Yuan is the Si Yan personally nominated by the empress, once Du Qing leaves the palace, Jia Yuan will be the empress' tongue.

Zhou Shanggong was able to get the approval of Concubine De, which was unique in his own way.

Zhou Shanggong suddenly realized: she was impatient.

This Jia Yuan is only fourteen, and she looks like a child.

It was the fourth prince who took the initiative to tease him just now.

Jia Yuan didn't understand style at all.

Besides, it's not the time for her to fight with others.

Concubine De is the most cunning and treacherous, in order to get rid of the fourth prince's relationship with her, she immediately rewarded the fourth prince's mansion with a woman.

Who knows if she will completely destroy her in order to protect her son's future?

After all, if the charge of dirtying the palace is suppressed, not only the fourth prince will be finished, but the concubine De will also be implicated.

Killing Zhou Shanggong is the best way.

Zhou Shanggong's sanity burned by jealousy returned.

If she wanted to break the current decadent situation, besides just catching the Empress, she also needed the sincere cooperation of her subordinates, so as not to give Concubine De a chance to attack.

Zhou Shanggong has been in the court for six or seven years, and he can stretch and bend.She immediately apologized to Xiao Huajing, took Xiao Huajing's hand and said sincerely: "My dear sister, you have been in the palace for a year, you should know who I am.

Too many things happened during these times, one after another, I was exhausted physically and mentally, I behaved improperly, I wronged my sister, I hope you can help each other in this year, forgive me. "

Zhou Shanggong did take care of Xiao Huajing more before, or in other words, she never suppressed Xiao Huajing.

Du Qing left the palace, she is the leader of the Department of Yansi, if the relationship with Shang Gong is not handled well, it will not be good for her to work in the future.

In the palace, if there is a slight mistake, life will be at stake.

Xiao Huajing smiled and said, "It's okay, if Lord Shang Gong likes the jade pendant, I can give it to you.

Just give me the golden melon seeds bestowed by the empress. "

Zhou Shanggong will never want this jade pendant again, what's the point of snatching something?

Zhou Shanggong said: "Sister, don't talk like that again, the fourth prince is the king, how can you refuse easily?"

Du Qing was busy helping at this moment: "Zhou Shanggong's words are golden words, Yuan'er must keep them in mind."

This afternoon, Zhou Shanggong distributed purses to Shanggong Bureau.

Xiaohuajing received eight golden melon seeds.

Du Qing's was eight silver melon seeds.

Du Qing quickly said: "Master Shang Gong took the lead, we should also issue red seals to our subordinates."

Therefore, Xiao Huajing also distributed purses to her subordinates, and each purse contained eight top prizes and first prizes.

A silver curb costs seven qian, totaling more than three taels of silver. (16 taels per catty in the Ming Dynasty)

Baoqin is the happiest, she is equivalent to a palace maid in Siyan Division, she is at the lowest level.

In total, she received purses from two Shang Gongs, two Si Yans, two Dian Yans, two Zhang Yans, and four female historians.

She held the small box and showed off to Xiaohuajing with her face flushed: "Girl, since Laba, I have already saved one hundred and thirty taels of silver. By the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I'm afraid I can still save a few dozen taels, which I can buy for my family." There are ten acres of paddy fields."

Xiao Huajing smiled and said: "Silly girl, you send home your monthly money, and now the reward is given to your family, so you don't keep a dowry for yourself?"

Baoqin said: "The slave does not marry, the slave will serve the girl, wherever the girl goes, the slave will go.

Would it make the slaves hungry if the girl eats?Girl, don't try to drive the slave away. "

Of course not.

Xiao Huajing smiled and asked: "Why am I driving you away? I just think of Jinzan. Jinzan was married at the time. How old are you? Nineteen?"

Baoqin pouted, and her eyes were a little red: "I won't leave anyway, girl, don't try to drive this slave away."

Baoqin really doesn't want to leave the palace.

At the beginning, the second wife thought that the girl was young, and she was a noble and precious woman at home, and when she entered the palace as a female official, she was also serving women.

The second wife was afraid that the girl would not know what to do, so she specially selected her who was older to fill in the gaps for the girl.

Leaving the palace in three years and rewarding her with a good future, how could she give up halfway?

Furthermore, in the mansion, there is no master who is easier to serve than a girl, and the food is not picky, and the clothes are ironed and just smile.

Not only is he not picky, but the rewards are generous.

The jewelry that Xiao Huajing received from her master was sold at a full discount, enough to buy dozens of acres of rice fields.

It's just that these jewelry are made by the imperial court, so she is reluctant to sell them.

Xiao Huajing didn't know much about marrying at first.

It was only because of Zhou Shanggong's persistence that he remembered that Baoqin was no small thing.

Baoqin followed her at the age of 12 and has been loyal to her for seven years.

She is now a firm foothold in the palace.

If Baoqin is willing to go out of the palace to marry someone, she can write a letter home to mention it during the Lantern Festival.

In the year after, Baoqin is 21.

At the age of 20, Zhou Shanggong became a black-eyed chicken in a hurry.

Baoqin's eyes are red, obviously unhappy.

Xiao Huajing was very happy: "Don't cry, don't cry, I just said it casually, you don't like it."

Only then did Baoqin feel happy: "I'm going to prepare fragrant bathing soup for the girl. Take a hot bath and rest early. The kang is already heated up. The girl will get up again at the first hour of tomorrow. I asked the person in the imperial dining room Mammy, they say this won't end until fifteen."

Xiao Huajing said: "What's the matter, don't we get up at this time in the past?"

Baoqin said: "How is this the same? In the past, I got up early and stayed in the house.

During the first lunar month, I went back and forth to the long street several times a day, the cold wind was biting, and the female officials were not allowed to cover their heads and faces, and the girl's skin was rough..."

Xiaohuajing's skin is fair, delicate and lubricated, like a peeled egg.

It's just because the faces of the other female officials are red and rough, so Xiao Huajing had no choice but to dress up to avoid all kinds of colors.

The next day, the empress began to summon the imperial wives of the governors at this time.

Xiao Huajing and Du Qing will go to Xihua Gate to welcome them according to the roster of Shangyi Bureau.

This is Xiaohuajing's first Spring Festival errand.

Along the way, Du Qing explained to Xiao Huajing the relationship between people.

The female officer is the liaison between Gaoming and the harem.

If you are blindly arrogant, it will not work.

It doesn't matter if the imperial orders say you are good, and if you say you are bad, even if the empress does not fully believe it, she will leave seeds of doubt.

If the reward given by the imperial order is less than two hundred silver, you can accept it yourself. This is a human relationship.

Received a reward from others, can provide a certain amount of convenience.

For example, try to let the imperial orders have a smooth meeting, or ask the imperial orders, how is the empress today, and what is taboo, try not to say it, so that the imperial orders know well.

In this way, not only can the edicts not make mistakes, but also save the empress from worrying.

If anyone makes a big move with tens of thousands of dollars, it means that what they want is extraordinary, and they have to refuse.

There is really no way to decide, and I have to hand it over to Lord Shang Gong for handling.

Otherwise, if someone reports and exposes them, they will be stigmatized as accepting and extorting bribes.

Not only can she fail to be a female officer, but her reputation will be ruined all her life.

Furthermore, even if the other party gives you mountains of gold and silver, they cannot reveal royal secrets that should not be revealed.

For example, the content of the empress's conversation, the physical condition of the empress.

The behavior of the empress.

Du Qing said with a smile: "I know you are smart and don't love money, but you are leaving the palace soon, I am a little worried, afraid that you have little experience and will fall into other people's ways."

Xiao Huajing said: "I'll save it, if you didn't want to be my sister-in-law, I would definitely not let you out of the palace."

This time, those who entered the palace to congratulate were all ordered by the local governor.

In this dynasty, only the family members of the military officials had to stay in Kyoto, and the family members of civil servants did not need to stay in Kyoto as hostages.

Therefore, every first lunar month, the empress would summon the governors of these places to order to care for one or two.

For example, the governors of these places have sons who need to get married, and daughters who need to be married.

Or, if a daughter needs to apply for exemption from election, it will be negotiated and resolved during this summons.

The empress will give an answer according to the frame given by Emperor Jiahe.

Those who should be given gifts are exempt from election, those who should be given marriages should be given marriages, and those who should be rewarded should be rewarded.

Empress one.

The queen's favor also represents the favor of Emperor Jiahe.

The whole morning of the second day of junior high school was relatively smooth.

However, when the governor of Huguang met with him, something happened.

On the morning of the second day of junior high school, the Queen's spirit was always good.

The wife of the governor of Huguang gave Xiao Huajing a purse, and didn't ask about any secret events, but only asked if the empress was in good spirits.

Xiaohuajing naturally agreed.

Generally speaking, the empress's poor health cannot be disclosed, and it is necessary to declare that the empress is in good health.

The queen's spirit is already very good, Xiao Huajing dare not say anything bad.

The queen ordered people from the governor's mansion in Huguang to meet with him. The monarch and his ministers had a very happy conversation.

Unexpectedly, people from Huguang Governor's Mansion suddenly knelt down and begged the Empress Dowager to give her granddaughter a marriage.

Xiao Huajing is very surprised, this year is not the year of the general election, so it is very abrupt to ask for a marriage right now.

The empress seemed to know why she knelt down, her eyes turned cold, and she looked at Xiao Huajing: "Summon Zhong Shangyi."

Xiao Huajing went out and told Shi Xiangjun: "Please Zhong Shangyi!"

He whispered the request of the governor's wife of Huguang again.

Let Shi Xiangjun remind Zhong Shangyi.

Let Zhong Shangyi prepare.

This is also an opportunity for Shi Xiangjun to please Zhong Shangyi.

In the promotion of female officials by the Department of Yan, the Shangyi Bureau has a great say.

Ma Shangxiang was named a talented person before, and Zhangyan filled in the vacancy became Dianyan, but now there is a vacancy in the Department of Yan and Zhangyan.

Shi Xiangjun wanted to make up for the position of Zhang Yan, so he was very diligent.

As long as she becomes a female official, she will be able to leave the palace in three years.

If you want to do women's history, you have to do it for ten years.

As a female historian, Shi Xiangjun only needs to be in charge of the letters. For the sake of her future, she follows Xiao Huajing on errands every day, and automatically fills in the vacancy of Zhangyan.

She worked so hard, Xiaohuajing naturally wanted to give her a chance.

Xiao Huajing returned to the Nuan Pavilion, but the governor's wife was still begging.

The Queen's voice was cold: "Mrs. Hu, please get up. I always have to ask about your granddaughter's situation before I can make a decision. If the situation is unknown, even if you kneel until tomorrow, I won't agree."

Zhong Shangyi came very quickly. Not only did she come, but she also brought a roster of the best girls on the list.

Accompanying Zhong Shangyi was Gong Zhengsi Kou Gongzheng and Shang Gong Ju Fu Shanggong.

The empress actually knew it well, but she deliberately ordered: "Tell me, what is the situation of Hu Shujuan, the beautiful girl of Huguang Governor's Mansion."

At such a time, Mrs. Hu on the ground was covered in cold sweat.

Zhong Shangyi flipped through the roster and said: "Hu Shujuan, born in Jiahe ten years ago, is 14 years old this year.

In the 23rd year of Jiahe, the daughter of the show, her grandfather, Hu Lu, governor of Huguang, submitted a booklet, saying that her granddaughter was seriously ill, and attached a pulse record certificate from the hospital that the girl was suffering from typhoid fever. His Majesty was afraid of typhoid fever, Hu Xiujuan is allowed to participate in the next draft.

The upper limit of the show girl in this dynasty is 16 years old, and Hu Xiujuan should participate in the next draft before she can get married. "

The empress said at this time: "Mrs. Hu, get up, and we will talk about the marriage after your granddaughter participates in the next year's draft."

Mrs. Hu pleaded bitterly, saying that her granddaughter was already engaged, and that her granddaughter was not born in Jiahe [-] years ago, but Jiahe [-] years old, and the next generation would be overage.

It was precisely because he was afraid of being exposed that he was overage in the next draft, that he asked for a marriage.

The queen ordered Gong Zhengsi to investigate clearly.

She was worried that the roster sent by the household department was wrong.

Zhong Shangyi said that the roster will definitely not be wrong.

Kou Gong is taking Mrs. Hu away.

She was kind and powerful, and threatened to let Jin Yiwei go to Huguang to investigate.

Jin Yiwei is synonymous with blood.

Madam Hu confessed in horror.

This matter involves the Hu family Xingmi.

The eldest son of the governor of Huguang doted on his concubine and killed his wife. He drove his original wife Luo Shi to the farm and imprisoned him.

The reason why the original partner, Luo Shi, married into the Hu family was because her grandfather rescued Hu Mu, who contracted a cold on the way to the exam and fell ill at the inn.

Luo's family is rich in wealth, not only cured the beetle, but also donated money.

Hu Lu didn't expect that he would be able to enter the imperial list and left a marriage letter.

The fixed posts exchanged by the two parties indicated the names, addresses and positions of the three generations of elders of both men and women.

Then, it is said that the son who is ranked in the family marry the woman who is ranked in the other party.

Then there is the date of birth of the female twin room.

In order to show his sincerity, Hu Lu invited a classmate who was traveling with him as a witness.

Both men and women were 13 years old at the time.

When Hu Lu became an official, he forgot about it.

It took five years for the woman to come to the Hu family with her family to recognize relatives.

But it was because the woman's father died of illness suddenly, and she came to recognize her relative after three years of mourning.

At this time, Mrs. Hu had already negotiated marriage with her natal brother, and planned to marry her natal niece to her son.

Moreover, the son of the Hu family also had an affair with his cousin.

The reason why the Hu family recognized such a marriage was because the classmate who was applying for marriage at that time also won the Jinshi, who is now the governor of Henan.

For the kindness of the Luo family, and even more for his own reputation, Hu Lu did not allow his wife to regret the marriage.

However, the wife and niece's dark knot in the bead was also allowed by Hu Li to enter later.

Of course, this is also for the reputation of the Hu family.

One year after the Luo family's marriage, she discovered the real identity of her husband's concubine, and also knew that her husband had an illegitimate daughter who was half a year older than her own daughter.

As a result, the couple fell out of harmony and have been arguing ever since.

Luo Shi himself suffered from seven disasters and eight disasters. He frightened the horse by offering incense, was poisoned by drinking water, and washed clothes would fall into the water.

The three-year-old daughter was also tricked into falling tiles from the house, slipping on the ground, and almost died.

The husband does not care whether their mother and daughter live or die.

The mother-in-law is biased.

Exhausted physically and mentally, she finally resigned to her fate and went to live in seclusion in the farm with her dowry.

I plan to wait until my daughter is older before making plans.

Originally, the Hu family was still secretive.

Helpless, Mrs. Hu's original wife has no children.

The concubine and niece were extremely brave and lucky, and gave birth to three sons in ten years.

The Hu family no longer had any scruples, and the concubine came forward and pretended to be the young mistress of the family.

The daughter of the concubine also participated in the draft in the name of the prostitute, and wanted to fly to the branch and make a further step.

Unexpectedly, the sky failed to fulfill one's wish, this girl was ill last year.

I was planning to participate in the draft next year.

Just this year, Luo Shi, who had lived in seclusion for ten years, suddenly became brave and disappeared from the Hu family's farm.

Luo's mother and daughter hid, but sent a letter to the Hu family, asking the Hu family to give their daughter a good marriage.

Otherwise, she would go to Beijing to sue the Hu family for spoiling their concubine and destroying their wives for deceiving the king.

The Hu family asked Luo Shi's daughter, the real Hu Shujuan, to marry her as a concubine.

Roche refused.

Luo Shi threatened that either the Hu family would give her justice and give her daughter a good future.

Her daughter can't bear the stigma of adultery and childbirth.

Either she will go to Beijing to sue the imperial court, and everyone will die.

In order to conceal the crime of deceiving the emperor, the Hu family had no choice but to ask the empress to grant a marriage, trying to get away with it.

The Hu family is so brave!

The queen was very angry that she, the mother of a country, was being used as a weapon.

The six bureaus and one division have the same opinion, and the crime of deceiving the king must be heard immediately.

Once such a cunning daughter enters the harem or the prince's mansion, won't she tarnish the royal blood?

The queen was suppressed by concubines for 40 years.

She felt Roche's resentment.

The Empress took the female officials present to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
