Story of Yanxi Palace: Red Seal Spring Star

Concubine Shen was the former Yigui.After Wugege passed away, the emperor promoted her to be a Shen concubine, saying that she served the queen with respect and prudence, and that she was good at female reds, and praised her for being taught by the queen, and she could be regarded as "the elegant model of the six palaces".Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the pain of the emperor's bereaved daughter in order to comfort the empress, and this concubine Shen is just enjoying the honor of the empress.But only Nala knew in his heart that the emperor had other reasons, besides the status of concubine Shen, it was because concubine Shen had made the fire sickle jacket.

As early as in February, the emperor decreed: "bring the five-color thread gold thread fire sickle jacket to the concubine Shen at home, and make a model of this fire sickle jacket, which is better than this fire sickle thread." The place in Suzhou was ordered. The officials presented two sets of embroidered satin gowns and gowns, and specified that the fourth-class embroidery method should be used.The first set was made of stone blue satin embroidered with eight balls of Kuilong holding the longevity gown, and the second set was made of fragrant satin embroidered with golden dragon robes. Then I gave this second set of robes to the Yigui people at that time, and taught her how to wear them. Learn to weave on the loom.And the first set was given to Mrs. Nalan in Yujing Garden, that is, Wei Yingluo.The reason why the empress knew so clearly was because Yuan Chunwang got the news through Bailu in the satin room.

Yigui people were taught by skilled weavers according to the shape of their robes, and mastered the loom technology.The emperor asked her to compare the sewed fire sickle jacket that day, and she did very well. The emperor was very happy when he saw it, so he took care of Wu Gege after Wu Gege fell ill, and promoted her to the throne.Nala reasoned that Wei Yingluo was originally a embroiderer, and she was a hundred times smarter than this concubine Shen, so she must have woven something good and presented it to the emperor early.Then I thought, the women in the harem are all wrong, what kind of concubine Rong concubine and heir is a joke!At that time, it was just a mistake. It turned out that what you can't get is the best. I should have understood why the emperor still used the title of concubine Ling.With the emperor's temperament, even if Wei Yingluo didn't look at the emperor again, the emperor would hold her in his palm.

Not to mention that now that woman has settled her heart, she has a good relationship with the emperor. She even made personal items such as purses, and the emperor never forgets her. The son took the title.It is impossible for the emperor not to understand, but he just likes her, willingly, she has won the emperor's heart forever... Concubine Rong told herself a few years ago that the emperor didn't really like her, and she understood that she didn't even like her. clear.

But every time the emperor came to Chengqian Palace, she and the emperor still respected each other as guests, talking about palace affairs and gossip as usual.When the emperor saw that she began to worship the Buddha, he praised her a few words, and said that she would get closer to the queen mother, and she only smiled and said yes.Also because Wu Gege has been bad, I didn't worry about the concubine Xin for the emperor, I ask the emperor to forgive, fortunately there is a concubine Ling, and congratulations to the emperor for having a son again, the emperor naturally told her not to worry about it, and asked her to mourn.She paid close attention to the purse worn by the emperor, but she didn't see Wei Yingluo making him a new one, presumably it was on the loom, so she didn't have to work so hard by hand.

Zhen'er, in front of Yuan Chunwang, naturally rebuked Ling Fei's re-pregnancy, saying that she took advantage of Wu Gege's dying illness to deliberately gain favor.The empress also needs to be strong, if Wu Gege is gone, she will go to visit orphans and abandoned babies, won't she be hurt by the scene, the concubine Ling's matter will hit even harder.Yuan Chunwang comforted her and said: Without her, there are others, and Concubine Xin is an example.Then Zhen'er felt very sorry for Concubine Xin, and felt that no one in the harem was better than Concubine Ling.Yuan Chunwang just snorted, and thought, "Hongli, this time I've got you off the hook again."Unexpectedly, after the death of a Concubine Xin, this Concubine Ling would be able to bear another child for you.After returning to the palace, Bai Lu and Yuan Chunwang fought even more fiercely, because Yuan Chunwang's status in the Forbidden City was higher than his in Yuanmingyuan, and the two were more confident, but no one knew it.

When Yilu and his wife heard the news that Wei Mei was pregnant again, they were overjoyed. Mrs. Li felt that Wei Mei must have listened to her words, so the favor was not fading, but she didn't know that Wei Mei did not really implement her "plan".

A few days after the banquet at Borzigit’s house, Uzhina gave birth to a boy and a girl. The boy’s name was Meng En, which was the name of their first child. The girl’s name was Bolu. The name of Empress Kublai Khan's birth mother is Xiaoen Xiaolu as she mentioned before.Although giving birth to twins is very difficult, but she has been in good health since she was a child, and with Ye Tianshi around, everything goes smoothly.Ye Tianshi said that she had better recover after confinement, but of course Baljur couldn't stay that long. The people in the grassland only knew that he was secretly summoned to Beijing by the emperor because of the Qinggun Zabu Rebellion.In addition to having a secret meeting with the emperor, Baljur also went to Monan Living Buddha Zhangjia Hutuktu who had been stationed in Beijing for a long time. Of course, Fu Heng and the emperor knew that this was the meaning of the title, and he had no intention of hiding it.Come July, he had to go.During this period of time, he had already prepared his personal liaison office in Nanyuan. He knew what the emperor was thinking, so he took the initiative to report the details to Concubine Rong and the emperor.

Concubine Rong also understood very well, so when the two of them were talking alone, she taught Baljur to rest assured that the emperor had her there, and taught him to rest assured of Uzhina's mother and son.He then smiled and said: "Sister Huang, of course I don't worry, if I don't worry, I won't send them here, the emperor will never let them have the slightest difference, I am more nervous than myself."Concubine Rong sighed: You are such a good man, she is very lucky.

Baljur asked: "Miss Huang, how is the Emperor treating you?"Concubine Rong nodded.Baljur said: If he treats you badly, you can send a letter to my station in Nanyuan or tell Uzhina.Concubine Rong laughed and asked: If the emperor treats me badly, what will you do?Baljur also smiled, and said: "Sister Huang is the emperor's sweetheart, I don't think there will be that day."Later, Concubine Rong euphemistically told the emperor about the conversation between the two of them, the emperor snorted and said: You are my woman, so I want him to mind my own business!Concubine Rong just smiled without saying a word, thinking: That's why you dragged me with him!

On the night before parting, Baljur wept.He said: Sister Rina, I'm sorry, I'm always sorry for you.Uzhina also had tears in her eyes, she held his head and said: Don't worry about me, I feel really happy to have our two babies now.In addition to you, I have children as relatives.Don't worry, there are sister Huang and Madam Nalan here, they are all my friends, sister Huang will come tomorrow, she said that she will accompany me for a few days this time.Baljur said: Well, I will try to see you again as soon as possible.Uzhina laughed and said: "Don't be too early, wait for me to recover, and then come again."Baljur also laughed and said: Sister Rina is always so cruel.He said and kissed her tightly.

Before setting off in the morning, the two looked at the sleeping child together for a while. Uzhina held him in her arms, stroked his head, and said, "Xiao Er, you are my favorite baby, and my heart will always be with you." together!You have to do your own thing well for me, don't worry about us.Baljur nodded.

The rectification of the Green Camp that Fu Heng said was one of the emperor's plans for many years. Earlier, Fu Heng was busy with expeditions to Jinchuan and Junggar, so he didn't put it on the agenda.

The green (lu4) battalion was the national standing army of the Qing Dynasty.In the early years of Shunzhi, during the process of the Qing army’s unification of the country, the Ming army and other Han soldiers will be incorporated, referring to the old system of the Ming army, with the battalion as the basic unit, and the green flag as the symbol, called the green battalion, also known as the green flag soldier.The total number of green battalion soldiers in the country has increased and decreased from time to time, and it has remained at three to four times that of the Eight Banners soldiers.In all the wars of the past dynasties, the Green Battalion played the main role.During the San Francisco Rebellion, the imperial court used the Green Battalion as the backbone, and successively dispatched more than 60 Green Battalion soldiers to fight.Since the emperor came to power, the total number of green battalion soldiers has reached [-]. The battle of Jinchuan, the battle of Pingzhun, including the Qinggun Zabu Rebellion that was put down only this year, the main force is also the green battalion.

Soldiers in the green battalion are under the military system, and when the father dies, the sons will succeed.The generals are under the direct control of the Ministry of War, and the generals cannot directly command the troops, which effectively prevents the soldiers from supporting themselves.The Green Battalion was independent from the Eight Banners Army, but in order to strengthen the control over the Green Battalion, the imperial court sent bannermen to serve as middle and senior officers in the Green Battalion, an army dominated by Han soldiers.Lu Yong, who reported the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect in Hubei in Liulangzhuang that year, was an officer and soldier of the Green Battalion.

The green battalion is mainly infantry, which is divided into two types: soldiers and defenders. In addition, there are cavalry and navy, but the number of cavalry is far less than that of the Eight Banners Army.The battalion system is divided into four categories: bid, association, battalion, and flood. The committee is called flood.The standard and auxiliary jurisdiction range from one to five battalions, and there are several flood seasons below the battalion.

The number of people in each battalion ranges from two to three hundred people to as many as six to seven hundred people.According to the distance in the road, the water and land are buffered, and the flood is deployed.Its organizational system is divided into three aspects: the capital, the provinces, and the border areas.The capital set up five battalions for patrol and arrest, which were under the command of the infantry, that is, the nine-door admiral's yamen.There are green battalions stationed in all the provinces directly in the interior, but the economic structure and number of troops are different. Among them, Fujian and Guangzhou have the most, and Anhui has the least.The imperial court established a garrison system in the border areas, Mongolia and Tibet, including Huijiang.The basic task of the local green battalion is to "patrol carefully and prepare for recruitment". In addition, it also undertakes tasks such as military service, military use in the northwest, coastal defense and border defense in the southeast, garrison, river construction, water transportation, and mausoleum guarding.

After the Battle of Junggar, the green battalion suffered a lot. In addition to recruiting soldiers with a generous salary, the imperial court also needed to make a good overall plan, check for omissions and fill vacancies, and improve the establishment of the green battalion.There is no doubt that this is the top priority of the court and Fu Heng's main job now.He asked the emperor for an order, saying that according to the plan, Yongqi would join the military department to study, and he happened to ask Yongqi to be one of his adjutants to study military affairs.The emperor happily agreed.Next, Yongqi followed Fu Heng, the two Ministers of the Ministry of War, and Ibor's father Guan Bao, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and others were busy and full of energy. His one wife and two concubines were very happy for him.

On the evening of July, he went back to the back hall of Chonghua Palace, the main hall of Cuiyun Pavilion, and saw He Zhu and Yi Boer waiting for him in his room, he took out his pocket watch to see that it was already past Hai hour, he couldn't help being surprised.He greeted He Zhu first, and He Zhu smiled and said that he was fine, and then said: Congratulations brother, you are going to be Ama.Yongqi was taken aback, and immediately looked at Yiboer, who smiled and said: "Sister Jiajia felt uncomfortable when she kicked shuttlecock with us this afternoon. Fujin called the imperial doctor to see her and said that she has a child. Congratulations brother!"He Zhu said again: "The concubine has reported to the Queen Mother, Concubine Rongmu and Concubine Qingmu in the afternoon, and they are all very happy."

Only then did Yong Qi remember that she hadn't seen Hu Jiajia, and she had mixed feelings in her heart. She smiled and said: Thank you.When I changed my clothes, I went to see her.The two went back to their rooms, and He Zhu said: "My brother went earlier, she is still waiting for you, you have to go to see her, so she can settle down."Yong Qi nodded, and looked at Yi Boer again, Yi Boer smiled at him, and walked out of the room with He Zhu.Zheng Ying came up to change his clothes, and said with a smile: Congratulations, master!This is the emperor's first grandson!Yongqi said: Thank you.Seeing that he was not in high spirits, Zheng Ying understood in her heart, so she said no more, changed his clothes, and ordered the little eunuch to clean his face and serve him tea.Yong Qi picked up the tea, drank a couple of sips, and said, "Let's go."

The master and the servant arrived at the Xipei Hall where Hu Jiajia lived. Hu Jiajia was sitting on the bed waiting for him. Seeing him coming in, he immediately got up.He hurriedly said: Sit down.Then she sat on the edge of the bed, held her hand, and said happily: "I'm very happy, are you feeling okay?"I heard that you are not feeling well in the afternoon. How are you doing now?Hu Jiajia's eyes were also full of joy, and he said: "I'm also very happy, thank you brother, I'm fine."Since Yongqi and Hu Jiajia got close, Yongqi didn't let her call herself a concubine any more, and called her "I" directly.Yong Qi called Cao Mama and the maids to come up, and told them to be careful in serving them.Mammy Cao replied that Gege's menstruation has only been in the past two days and she hasn't come yet, but because she felt uncomfortable in the afternoon, she saw the imperial doctor and found out that she was pregnant. She smiled and congratulated Yongqi.Yong Qi said that she had worked hard, and then asked everyone to leave, and Zheng Ying stood by the door.

He held Hu Jiajia in his arms and said softly: Are you afraid?Hu Jiajia knew that he was talking about Concubine Xin, shook his head, closed his eyes, hugged him, and said: I was a little scared before, but this afternoon I know that I have a brother's child, so I am not afraid anymore.Yongqi said: Why?Hu Jiajia said: "I must give birth to him well. He is my brother and I's child. Now he can rely on me."Before I got married, my mother said so.Yongqi said: Your parents must be happy too.Hu Jiajia happily said: "Well, Concubine Qingmu explained that she taught people to deliver letters to them, thank you brother.Yongqi said: "With me here, don't be afraid."Hu Jiajia hummed again.Yong Qi kissed her before leaving, her heart was full of happiness.

After coming out of the Xipei Hall, Yong Qi went back to the main hall and went directly to the West Ear Room, where Ibor's bedroom was.Seeing him coming in, Nanny Pan hurriedly greeted him with a smile, and asked the maid to serve tea.Yongqi saw Yiboer writing in front of the desk, so she walked over to have a look.Seeing the poem volume of Du Mu's running script "Zhang Haohao" handed down by Tang Dynasty handed down with him yesterday, she is writing——

The lord sighed again and again, saying that the world is special.

The Tianma brocade is given as a gift, accompanied by a water rhinoceros comb.

Longza sees the autumn waves, and the bright moon travels to the East Lake.

Since then, every time we meet, three days have passed.

Yongqi stood beside her and watched her write without speaking.Ybor raised his head and said with a smile: "Sister, how are you?"Yong Qi nodded.Yiboer ordered everyone to go down, grabbed his hand, pulled him to sit on the couch, and then sat beside him, saying: Are you happy?Yong Qi didn't speak, so Yi Boer put his head on his shoulder and said: We knew this would happen, huh?Er Niang will also be happy, tell Master Fu Heng tomorrow, Er Niang will know, and they will be very happy!Yongqi was depressed, and she shed tears at this point.

Yi Boer hurriedly wiped away Yong Qi's tears and said: Brother, I am not unhappy, I feel sad when you are like this.Yong Qi nodded, wiped away her tears, and said: I didn't know she had stopped taking the medicine.Yi Boer said: Taiyuan Hospital should go back to Fujin. She deliberately didn't tell you, and Sister Jiajia didn't tell you either, but don't blame them.Yong Qi said: Well, I just wronged you.Yi Boer said: Brother, don't say that, I'm happy for you and my sister, you can't stay away from her for several years just to wait for me, and my sister has a child, good for the Hu family, I'm really happy for her !Yongqi sighed.

Yi Boer said: Brother, I know, you are afraid because of Concubine Xin, I believe that my sister will not be like that, I heard from the mother and concubine that there were very few such things in the palace before.After finding out this afternoon, Concubine Qing immediately came over to see her sister, and she said so again.Brother Si and the others have moved out, when will we move out?If you leave the palace, maybe everyone will feel better.Yong Qi said: Listen to what Huang Ama said recently, he doesn't want me to move out, now that he has a child, Huang Ama and Mufei don't even want us to move out.Yi Boer nodded and said with a smile: I really don't know whether I should be happy or unhappy for Elder Brother, this shows that the emperor likes Elder Brother, but there is more freedom outside the palace.

The author has something to say:

[Zhang Haohao], originally a kabuki, met Du Mu when he was in the Jiangxi shogunate in his early years.Later, Zhang Haohao was appreciated by Shen Chuanshi, and he came to Xuancheng with him, and had quite contacts with Du Mu.Later, Shen Chuanshi's younger brother took Zhang Haohao as his concubine, and since then he has been cut off from Du Mu.In the seventh year of Yamato (Taihe) (833), Shen Chuanshi served as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the officials in the Xuancheng shogunate also went their separate ways.It wasn't until Du Mu came to Luoyang five years later that he discovered that Zhang Haohao had been abandoned by his ruthless husband and was selling alcohol in a hotel in the east city of Luoyang.

Du Mu wrote "Zhang Haohao's Poem", the whole poem is very long, and a paragraph in the text is just an excerpt.This poem uses heavy brushwork and heavy colors to recall Zhang Haohao's beautiful scene six years ago when he first uttered clear rhymes and became famous.In just a few years, Zhang Haohao, who was graceful and graceful back then, has become the daughter of a "danglong" who sells wine in Dongcheng.With exquisite poetic language, Du Mu reproduces Zhang Haohao's tragic life of ups and downs, and expresses the poet's deep sympathy for such suffering women who cannot control their own destiny.The whole poem is full of emotions and elegant diction, which can be called a masterpiece of Tang poetry.
