The style of the Queen Mother in Qing Dynasty is different

Aruna gave an example to explain the truth clearly.The women in the palace knew that it was useless to isolate Dong E's family, but they decided to do it.Qiqi Geming knew that there was nowhere to spend the gold and silver she saved, but she decided to save it.

Humans are emotional animals and it is difficult to control their emotions.

The most honorable empress dowager in the palace wants to be close to her mother's family, the emperor wants to grow old with the love in his heart, and the concubines want to be favored by the emperor... Everyone has obsessions, and they are all trapped in the cage they drew and cannot break free.

The reasoning is very good, but Qiqige doesn't want to hear it, she just wants to mess around.

I just want to save a lot of gold and silver like a dragon. If conditions don't allow it, I also want to raise a lot of beautiful brothers and sisters, and be a shameless bastard who eats all men and women!

She grabbed Aruna's hand and moaned, "Aruna, do you not like me anymore?"

Aruna was stunned, "Why did your mother say that? How could the slave not like you?"

"Then what are you doing with me as an example? I don't care, you just use me as an example to amuse me, and you just don't like me!"

Aruna laughed in her heart, "Your Majesty is so old, she's still acting like a baby!"

Qiqige said dissatisfiedly: "Hmph! You are starting to dislike me for being old, and you really don't like me anymore!"

At this moment, there was a silence on the stage, Qiqige thought the play was over, so she clapped her hands and shouted 'OK'.She is the queen, if she doesn't say hello, whoever dares to say yes first, this can be regarded as a little work for Qiqige when she is watching a play.

After shouting "Okay", there was silence on and off the stage.Aruna clung to Qiqige's ear and reminded her, "Mother, you shouted too early, this is just an ordinary change of scene, and there is no climax!"

Qiqige: Oh, I'm so embarrassed... I ran away and overturned my car...

Aruna clapped her hands lightly to signal for everyone to follow suit, Dong Eshi and others quickly clapped their hands in agreement, praising the exquisite performance of the actors on the stage.The actors quickly kowtowed to thank the empress for the reward.

Duan Qiqige didn't dare to go on errands in the following singing, and finally finished listening to the play, Qiqige took the concubines to drink again.

The banquet was placed in Xian'an Palace, and the drinks and dishes on the table were rich and exquisite, which were carefully arranged by Qiqige.

The food is good, and the wine is good, but today is Dong E's birthday, and everyone is unwilling to flatter them. Even if Qi Qige tried her best to mobilize the atmosphere, the scene is still embarrassing.

Everyone just lowered their heads to eat, and no one got up to toast.Dong E saw that they were almost full, so he smiled and said: "If you are full, you can leave if you want! You don't need to stay here."

As soon as everyone heard this, they got up and said goodbye, not saving Dong E's face at all.

When everyone left, Dong E stood up and said to Qiqige: "The empress, thank you for preparing the birthday banquet for the concubine. When the concubine is at home, no one will make trouble for the concubine. The empress treats the concubine well. The concubine has five feelings."

After all, Dong E solemnly saluted and thanked him.

Faced with Dong E's sincere thanks, Qiqige was very embarrassed.

"I didn't do anything, I just gave an order, and the people below will naturally take care of things."

Qiqige looked around, except for the maids, there were only her and Dong E's.There are many exquisite palace lanterns hanging in the room, the candles are brilliant, fresh flowers are placed in the corner of the room, the delicacies on the table have not been touched at all, and the exquisite dishes are still the same as before.

Such careful arrangement made the scene even more deserted.

Qiqige sighed: "Today is a good day for you, but...you are still wronged."

The birthday is so embarrassing, I am afraid that the gods of Da Luo will be angry!

Dong E said with a smile: "The concubine knows that she is not liked by others, and it is God's mercy to be taken care of by the empress, so I dare not ask for more."

She paused and said: "The concubine knows that the empress likes to play cards, and she plays two cards every night. The concubine does not dare to miss the hour of the empress, and everyone left and right is scattered, why not... the concubine waits on the empress to go back to rest! "

"Don't tell me, they left as soon as they left, let's have fun." Qiqige raised the wine glass and invited Dong Eshi to drink together.

Why is Du Kang the only solution to worry, drinking is a good way to draw in the relationship between the two.

Dong E's alcohol capacity is not good, so he can only drink some plum wine that is not intoxicating.After a few glasses of wine, although Dong E was not drunk, he talked more.

Under the light, the delicate and beautiful woman leaned against the table, with a look of disappointment on her face, "Chenqie... Chenqie knows that she is annoying. Chenqie also knows that Chenqie is not a good woman."

Qiqige picked up a piece of beef and ate it, "What you said is wrong, you are already virtuous enough."

Dong E's family was still frowning, "The empress is kind and willing to comfort the concubine, but the concubine has to be self-aware. The concubine was married and entered the palace again, which also caused a rift between the emperor and his brother. Not only that..."

She sat up straight and looked at Qiqige, "Not only that, because of the relationship between the courtiers and concubines, the emperor and the empress fell out of favor, and the concubines fell out of favor. If the crimes are dealt with, the courtiers and concubines have committed treasonous crimes."

Qiqige looked at Dong Eshi carefully, "Are you serious?"

Dong E's family vowed in fear, "In front of the empress, the concubine dare not lie, otherwise the concubine will be hit by thunder!"

Everyone is very superstitious nowadays, Dong E's oath is either very cruel to himself and not afraid of retribution, or it is sincere.

Qi Qige felt that the queen mother and herself were fairly accurate in judging people, and what Dong E said probably came from the heart.

Qiqige thought for a while and said: "The first emperor married several Fujin who remarried, so it is common for women to remarry, and there is nothing shameful about it. You can't be blamed for the discord between the emperor and the empress, and the disfavor of the concubine. The emperor will like whoever he wants. Who, this is his freedom and power."

Dong Eshi didn't expect Qiqige to say that.Regardless of the former dynasty or the harem, everyone said that the emperor should be exposed to both rain and dew, have multiple children, and should not favor only one person.Only the empress said that the emperor likes someone is freedom and power.

Qiqige said again: "I have noticed that you always have the intention of confessing in your heart, but what you confess are all useless things. It is not your fault that you married someone or spoiled the harem."

What you should really regret is that you married someone and contacted the emperor. Your private contact hurt Prince Xiang and all the concubines in the harem.

These words Qiqige can only repeat in her heart, she still thinks in the way of modern people, she feels that being a mistress is shameful.But Dong E and others feel that it is more shameful to occupy the favor of the emperor, and there is no reason between them.

The two fell silent and drank sullenly.

Dong E's family was slightly drunk, and suddenly laughed, "Empress, my concubine is telling the truth, I don't know if she will believe it or not. The concubine does not covet glory and wealth, and the concubine does not care about being a noble concubine. But before entering the palace, The emperor asked the concubine if he would like to enter the palace, and the concubine immediately agreed without hesitation. Because the concubine is willing to bear everyone's insults, as long as he can always be by the emperor's side, the concubine will be satisfied."

Dong Eshi smiled and lay down on the table with tears, "I can give up a lot of things, but I just can't let go of this relationship."

This sentence made people cry, and Dong E drank a few more glasses of wine, and was so drunk that he lay down at the table and couldn't stand upright.

Just as Qiqige was about to send someone to send her back, the emperor suddenly came.

When the emperor entered the room, he was stunned when he saw Dong Eshi drunk.

Qiqige thought that the dog emperor was going to take his anger out on herself, so she just opened her mouth to explain.I don't want to hear the emperor say: "Thank you for organizing her birthday party and explaining to her."

Qiqige: "..." Emperor Dog, why are you not a dog anymore?

Seeing that Qiqige was stunned, the emperor felt strange, "What's wrong with you? Did you drink too much? I remember you have a good drinker!"

Qiqige shook her head slowly, "I...didn't drink much."

The emperor ignored Qi Qige's abnormality, he walked to Dong E's side, and gently helped her up.

"Wan'er, let's go back!"

Dong Eshi reluctantly opened her eyes. Seeing the emperor coming, she couldn't help but smile, "Why are you here?"

The emperor said softly, "I'll take you back."

Dong Eshi leaned on the emperor's shoulder and acted like a baby, "Did you diligently review the memorials today? Do you have the patience to deal with political affairs? Do you miss me?"

The emperor smiled, "Don't worry, there are all of them, and the last thing is the best."

Dong E frowned and said displeasedly: "You are wrong! Government affairs are more important than me, you can't think too much of me."

The emperor's eyes were full of tenderness, and he softly coaxed Dong E, "Okay, I will listen to you. Can we go back now?"

Dong Eshi stood up unsteadily and bowed to Qiqige, "Empress Empress, thank you for hosting my birthday party, and my concubine will leave."

Seeing the scene of these two people getting along, Qiqige was stunned. She nodded repeatedly, "Oh, please go back! Goodbye, goodbye!"

The emperor nodded at Qi Qige, and left Xian'an Palace with Dong E's arms in his arms.

Aruna picked up some vegetables and put them in Qiqige's bowl, "Madam, you were only focused on drinking just now, eat something to fill your belly!"

At this time, Qiqige really admired Aruna, seeing the daily life of the emperor and Dong E, she was not surprised at all, only thinking about letting herself eat more.

Qiqige sighed: "My Aruna is really not a mortal!"

Aruna was confused, "Okay, why are you praising me? You should eat something! You ate less than half of what you usually eat tonight."

Qiqige sighed: "Forget it! Put the table away, I'm already full of dog food tonight!"

Aruna didn't know where the dog food came from, she just thought Qiqige was drunk and talking nonsense.She called Qingyan Cardinal to pack her things, and helped Qiqige go back to sleep by herself.

After the birthday banquet, Dong E felt embarrassed when he saw Qiqige, and felt that he lost his morals after drinking and was ashamed in front of the queen.Qiqige didn't care about these things, but she felt shy when she saw Dong Eshi, and rarely approached her actively.

The emperor only favored the Dong E family, and the harem complained, but the empress dowager couldn't control this matter, the empress didn't care, and the concubines couldn't win the emperor's heart with all their efforts, so they could only accept their fate in the end.

The days passed quickly, and in the next autumn, Dong E was eight months pregnant and was about to give birth in October.

In the Compassion Palace, Qiqige is teaching Na Ren a lesson.

"Why did you hit someone?"

Na Ren was one year older, and her temper grew accordingly, "I beat a slave, my aunt shouldn't teach me!"

"Is a slave not a human being?"

Na Ren said: "Slaves are slaves. I beat them whenever I want, and scold them whenever I want. They are born to serve me! I didn't beat them, so what's the big deal."

Qiqige rubbed her forehead in annoyance, she shouldn't have sent Na Ren back to Prince Jane's residence for a short stay.

Both Prince Jane and Baoyin are domineering. When they were in Mongolia, Baoyin beat and scolded his servants frequently.In their minds, slaves are not human beings, and beating and scolding follow the master's will, which is not considered abuse.It's not just Prince Jane, most of the princes and dignitaries in the capital think this way.

When Naren was in the palace, Qiqige looked on, and she was quite polite, but when she returned to Prince Jane's mansion, she reverted to her old ways.

Qiqige thought to herself that Naren could no longer be allowed to return to Prince Jane's mansion.She originally wanted to make her sister and daughter closer, but such a divided education would have a very bad influence on Na Ren.

"Na Ren, you were born lucky and had a good pregnancy, but this natural luck is not for you to beat people! Your servants took care of you and curry favor with you, but you rewarded them with beatings. This is what people do. ?"

Naren couldn't be convinced by Qiqige's teachings. She followed Qiqige's side and learned nothing else, but she was quite good at talking back.

"How does my aunt know that those slaves are good people? I beat them because they did something wrong."

Qiqige said: "I understand that not all slaves are good. Some people do bad things behind your back. Such slaves should not be tolerated, but do you only have one way to beat people? Na Ren, violence is the last resort of the impotent."

Naren pouted and remained silent, and Qiqige continued: "Naren, you are lucky to become the superior, and you should be more considerate of the hardships of the people below you. You have the ability to do many things, and you should use these abilities to do useful things. meaningful things."

The queen mother sat beside her and listened quietly, when she beckoned Na Ren to come over.

Na Ren stood in front of the queen mother and pursed her lips, looking very aggrieved, "Grandmother..."

The queen mother smiled and said: "Your aunt is right, you have to listen to what your aunt says."

Na Ren nodded obediently, "Well, Na Ren knows..."

"Management of servants is a science. If it is too loose, the servants will cause chaos, and if it is too strict, the servants will resent. The eight words of kindness and power, and clear rewards and punishments are the secrets of managing servants. This is easy to say, but difficult to do. Who in the world Know you best? It’s not your biological parents, but the slaves who serve you. They can only serve you well after they understand your temperament. You treat your servants too cruelly, what will they do? The slaves harmed you, You don't even know how you died."

Naren was still young, she half understood what Qiqige and the queen mother said, but she understood the last sentence of the queen mother.

She turned back and threw herself into Qiqige's arms, "Auntie, I want to sleep with you tonight. I beat the slaves, and they will definitely hurt me!"

Qiqige sighed: "You are so timid and dare to hit someone? Your imperial grandmother is scaring you! Don't be afraid! Sleep with me at night, don't bother me now, go out and play with Aruna!"

Naturally, Na Ren trusted Aruna, she took Aruna's hand with confidence, and went out to play with her.

When Naren went out, the queen mother smiled at Qiqige: "Although you have never given birth to a child, you are very good at teaching children. When Naren entered the palace, you did everything by yourself, and her wet nurse couldn't get in. Such meticulous care It’s good, but it’s just too tiring for you.”

Qiqige complained to the queen mother: "It is my responsibility to hand over the child to me. I am always afraid that she will go astray, so I wish I could tie Na Ren on the waistband of my trousers."

"Aruna and the wet nurse will teach you some truths. You don't have to be too nervous, and you won't tire yourself out."

Qiqige said: "I am physically strong and not afraid of fatigue, but it is Dong E's...she has a hard pregnancy, and she looks very pale."

The queen mother fiddled with the Buddhist beads and sighed softly, "Whether it will be safe or not after giving birth to a boy or a girl depends on the destiny."

There was no one else in the room at the moment, so the queen mother said softly to Qiqige: "This child is born without knowing what his aptitude is. Seeing how the emperor only favors Dong E's family, it is estimated that in the future, apart from the children born by Dong E's family, there will be no children in the palace." I've added a baby. I'm more interested in Xuan Ye, this child is talented and loves to read, he is a rare good seedling."

The emperor is still very young, Qiqige didn't expect the queen mother to think about the prince so early.

Qiqige thought for a while and said: "I don't understand these things. Since the queen mother likes the third elder brother, why not take the third elder brother back to the palace. Tong Jiafujin is going crazy thinking about his son."

The queen mother smiled and said: "I have already mentioned it to the emperor, and I will take the third elder brother back to the palace in a few days."
