The Struggle History of the Fourteenth Qing Dynasty

Speaking of which, none of the three candidates for the succession to Fujin came from a family with a common surname of Manchu.

The eight surnames of the Manchu nationality are:

Tong (Tong Jiashi), melon (Guarjiashi), Ma (Majiashi), Suo (Suochaoluoshi), He (Heshelishi), Fu (Fuchashi), that (Narashi) , Niu (Niu Hulu's) eight surnames, commonly known as "Eight Manchurian Surnames".

Manchu surnames have evolved frequently in the long history, and have derived countless side branches.

But among the Di Fujin selected this time, only the fourth elder brother's Di Fujin, the Ulanara clan, was only marginal.

Not to mention others.

The fifth elder brother was raised by the empress dowager before, but it turned out to be the daughter of Zhang Baozhu, and it was over. What kind of thing is he Talashi?

Tracing back to the source, the ancestors were just ordinary Manchus!

The distant ancestors of the Tala family lived between the white mountains and the black waters for thousands of years. In the late Ming Dynasty, there were four branches around Changbai Mountain, and the number was small.

He Tala is named after the place, and his ancestors are really ordinary people who lived in the white mountains and black waters, so there is no legend.

After Emperor Taizu raised his troops, he went to Beijing as the capital of the late Emperor Shunzhi, and each of the Tara clan returned to Taizu and Taizong successively.The descendants of Tatara Luotun of the Zhenghong Banner, due to the state's allocation of garrison, another branch was changed to the Red Banner.

Although the genealogy is very thick, the Tara family has no achievements, let alone promising clansmen, prominent official positions, but a large population, that's all.

So much so that the name seems nice, but in fact, it doesn’t help the fifth elder brother much. It’s not as good as a Mongolian Fujin. At least any noble girl from the Mongolian tribe who can become the first Fujin will also help the fifth elder brother Help, but the emperor chose Ta La's family as the fifth elder brother's direct Fujin!

Let the empress dowager not have much affection for the fifth elder brother's son-in-law Fujin.

But the emperor's imperial decree had already been issued, and it was a done deal. The empress dowager first hoped that the fifth elder brother would marry a Di Fujin who was born in Mongolia, but in the end...he married a Di Fujin who had the lowest background.

Zhang Baozhu has mediocre political achievements and a mediocre family background. It can be said that this empress dowager selected by the Five Fortune Jin is unwilling, but dare not show it.

Concubine Yi, on the other hand, felt that Wu Fujin was good, and that being of low birth also had its advantages, at least Wu Fujin would not be too strong in front of Fifth Elder Brother.

Concubine Yi can ignore the empress dowager's opinions, and is only happily preparing to marry her daughter-in-law.

Concubine Rong is dissatisfied with the choice of daughter-in-law. Concubine Rong's own family is humble, but she thinks that the third elder brother is the prince elder brother and one of the older ones. Even if the third elder brother can't marry a red belt, can't he marry a Manchu surname?

Among the dozen or so first-class ladies, there are several red ribbons.

Why not give Brother San a real noble daughter?

The Dong E family, this surname is not very good, because in the Shunzhi Dynasty, this surname can be said to be very popular, because their family is famous all over the world as the concubine Dong E.

Later Empress Xiaoxian!

Do you think Concubine Rong can be happy?

It's a pity that it's also a done deal. The noble daughters she had summoned before were all married to the royal family by the Lord Long Live.

More than one of them did not marry their sons, and even Kangxi himself only kept a few signs that they were indeed charming women, and put down the rest, either giving marriages to others, or going home to marry himself.

Although Concubine De was not very satisfied with Ulanara, but compared to the third and fifth elder brothers' candidates for the next Fujin, Ulanara was naturally the best choice.

So Concubine De happily prepared to marry her daughter-in-law.

Xiao Shisi also grabbed the fourth elder brother and asked him: "Brother, when will you marry your sister-in-law back? Xiao Shisi has to prepare a gift money!"

"What gift money can you prepare?" The fourth elder brother touched his younger brother's clothes and found that he was wearing a thick coat, so he didn't get someone to put on a small jacket for him: "Where did you get the gift money?"

"Saved it up!" Little Fourteen grabbed him and refused to let go, insisting on asking clearly: "When will sister-in-law come in?"

"Then you have to wait. The day to welcome the bride is set on March [-] next year. From now on, save money!" The fourth elder brother was happy, his younger brother was so interesting, so little Great, what do you know?

"I will move to the palace in February next year, so I can go to your brother's place for a wedding banquet!" Little Fourteen was concerned about this.

The same is true for brother thirteen, these two kids look quite successful.

Even though he said that, Xiao Shishi still prepared a birthday present for his elder brother. The fourth elder brother's birthday is October [-]th.

This birthday was a bit serious, because Concubine De took him to the Yinghua Hall alone to pay homage to Empress Xiaoyi, that is, Tong Jiashi.

I told you about the fourth elder brother's engagement.

In addition, Xiao Shishi gave his brother two big gold ingots!

This is a gift he decided for himself. When he gave it to his brother, he said: "We are going to get married soon. I must have a lot of money to spend. Give this to my brother. Use it wherever you are short of money. Don't keep it as a souvenir."

Xiao Shisan's is much simpler, it is the best word "Fu Shou" written by him himself.

The other brothers naturally also sent congratulatory gifts, but they were just some ordinary objects. After all, this birthday is celebrated every year, so what should I do if I give this year a gift that is too expensive next year?

Even Emperor Kangxi would not give his sons a grand birthday celebration, at most he would reward him with something, but birthday noodles are available every year. Don't ask Long Live God.

And Kangxi, in his spare time, knew that the fourteenth elder brother had given the fourth elder brother two ingots of large gold ingots as a birthday gift, so the tea was sprayed out!

"Two big gold ingots?" What the hell kind of birthday gift is this?

"That's right, five taels for one ingot and ten taels for two ingots, it is said that it means perfect." Liang Jiugong was also a little dumbfounded.

To be honest, is there any treasure in this palace?

Brother Fourteen is a little young, but with the various rewards during the festivals and the high status of Concubine De, he must have a lot of good things.

Why did you give the fourth elder brother two ingots of big gold ingots?

This matter spread throughout the harem in an instant, and Long Live Lord knew about it.

"Is the fourth son... very short of money?" Emperor Kangxi had to think this way: "But the princes who are leaving the palace are all supported according to the prince's quota... Except for money, they basically spend nothing in the palace. place!"

The princes who have not left the palace to build a mansion are supported according to the prince's share. Among them, the prince has an annual regulation of 1 taels of silver and [-] hu of Lumi.

Of course, it is impossible for the palace to give so much money and rice to the princes, but apart from this money and rice, everything else is according to the prince's share.

Who would dare to treat the emperor's son harshly if the supply is sufficient?

Especially the crown prince, Emperor Kangxi was afraid that the crown prince, the legitimate son, would be wronged, so he even arranged for the crown prince's father, Ling Pu, to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and asked him to provide a case for the East Palace, so as to prevent some people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs from cheating. Next, he was obedient to the crown prince.

It can be said that Kangxi may not care about his women, but he really cares about his sons.

"The slaves absolutely dare not deceive the fourth elder brother in any way." Liang Jiugong dared to endorse this point: "However, the fourth elder brother is not short of money! Not to mention, the dowry of Empress Xiaoyi back then was kept. I gave it to the fourth elder brother."

Whoever is short of money, the fourth elder brother can't be short either!

"That's right, Empress Xiaoyi treats him like her own son, and left her dowry to the fourth child. Back then, Huang Ma also left most of her private house to me, and also gave it to the prince. All the others were distributed equally." Emperor Kangxi thought of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang: "The fourth son only got his cousin's dowry, and he was supported by the concubine De. It's not that the Wuya family didn't take care of him. Will you be short of money?"

Wu Ya's family, even if they were born in Baoyi, they are a well-established family. At least three generations of their family have worked as servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Not to mention extremely rich, they are definitely a well-off family.

"Why don't you ask Brother Fourteen?" Liang Jiugong joked with a smile, "Let's see what he thinks? Or is Fourth Master really short of money?"

"Well, ask Xiao Shisi to come over, by the way, don't say it too seriously, just say that Huang Ama has yogurt beans from the north as a tribute, he must like to eat." Kangxi happened to be fine, and took his son's affairs as entertainment He also ordered his left and right: "Go to the imperial dining room to have a look, I remember that the milk beans with dried plums are pretty good?"

"The milk beans from Horqin, Mongolia, actually have dried blueberries in them, which taste good; there are also milk tea and Mongolian milk shellfish." Liang Jiugong mentioned two more items, both of which are Mongolian specialties.

"Okay, let someone get it ready, let Xiao Shishi come over!" Kangxi also missed Xiao Shishi, he was very busy these days, and he didn't go to the harem.

Moreover, he has not been in the mood to deal with the women in the harem these days, so he should call his son over!

Little Fourteen was reading in the Yonghe Palace, it was "The Analects of Confucius", and he needed to recite it.

He is not a real toddler, he can sit still, he can see in, and he knows that no matter how he resists, reading is a must, but can he not be so troublesome?

You know, the princesses of the Qing Dynasty needed hard work to help Meng, and the princes of the Qing Dynasty also had to work hard to study and practice martial arts.

What should he do?

I really don't want to study hard!

It was only three years in high school before, but this time it started at least ten years, and it is possible to be a little worse than ten years, and according to his little historical knowledge, it seems that the Fourteenth Master has been living in the palace very securely, Only in his thirties was he named Beizi, nicknamed "General King". When he went out to lead troops to fight, his family members also lived in the palace and did not leave the palace to build a mansion.

It was not until the Yongzheng Dynasty that he went out of the palace to build a mansion and was named Baylor.

From this point of view, if people in their 20s are still studying, wouldn't it take more than ten or twenty years?Is this kind of life a human life?

Xiao Shisan followed Concubine Min to the Yinghua Hall to offer incense.

Yinghua Hall is the place where empress dowagers, concubines and concubines of Ming and Qing dynasties worship Buddha.

In addition to the gods and Buddhas, there is also a small table set up under the case on the day of worshiping the gods to worship "Wanli mother".

Usually, milk cakes and fruits are provided every month, and eunuchs are set up to deal with matters such as incense candles, sweeping, and sitting watches.

He was thinking of a way, when Li Dequan came, only then did Concubine De know that Long Live Lord Xuan Xiaosi had passed.

"There are milk beans, milk tea, and air-dried beef jerky that came from Mongolia as a tribute. The Lord Long Live said that he missed the Fourteenth Lord. This slave will take you to the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Qianqing Palace to eat delicious food!" Li Dequan said in front of Concubine De , but dare not take airs.

And no matter how Concubine De asked, he didn't tell the truth, he just meant, Long Live Lord misses Fourteenth Lord.

Concubine De didn't believe it!

To say that Xiao Shishi is a special son in the heart of Long Live Lord is a bit special, but it is absolutely impossible to say that he will miss something after seeing him for a few days.

But Concubine De thought about it, but couldn't figure it out, why does Long Live Lord have to see Xiao Shisi?

A child who is only five or less than six years old?

"Little Fourteen, go with Li Wenda." Concubine De changed Xiao Fourteen's clothes, and sent more than twenty people to follow, and when Li Dequan came, he brought a dozen, forty or fifty people. Walking together, Xiao Shisi was carried by Concubine De's shoulders. Although he is small, he doesn't want to be hugged, let alone so far away, whether it is Xiao Shisi or the strong eunuch who is holding someone, It's exhausting enough.

The last time he and Xiao Shisan ran over, they rested several times on the way. It doesn't matter how fast or slow they are, because they are going to play.

But it's different now.

This time, it is the oral order of the Long Live Lord, how can we delay the time when he declares his vision?

They can't wait to run over, but Xiao Shisi is too small, sitting on the shoulders, they dare not run fast, and running is not allowed in the palace, what does it look like in a hurry?

In addition, the leader was Li Dequan, he walked slowly, who would dare to overtake him?

So the walk was wobbly and slow along the way, but it was smoother.

By the time they arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Qianqing Palace, a long time had passed.

Xiao Shisi entered the Dong Nuan Pavilion of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and greeted Huang Ama first. This rule cannot be changed.

But after Kangxi called out, Little Fourteen quickly got up, ran over and hugged Kangxi's thigh: "Huang Ama, I miss you too."

I haven't seen each other for almost half a month. Kangxi has a lot of things to do, so I'm sure I'm busy, but I haven't seen each other for half a month. Of course, Xiao Shisi has to give a strong sense of presence.

I haven't seen you for so long!

Kangxi was also happy when he hugged his thigh, picked him up and put him beside him, touched his little head: "Didn't Huang Ama pick you up to eat?"

"Hmm, Huang Ama, is this a dairy product from Mongolia? It looks delicious, can I eat it?" Little Fourteen stared at the enamel-blue lotus on the kang table next to him. Eight Treasures Saving Box.

This is gold-plated copper.

Oblate body, slightly bulging cover surface, round folded edge, straight abdomen, large circle feet.

The whole body of the box is covered with blue glaze and the background color is sprinkled with gold, which looks magnificent;

The center of the box cover is decorated with five bats holding longevity patterns, the outer edge is hooked with lotus patterns, and the middle is embellished with the eight auspicious patterns of Dharma conch, Dharma wheel, precious umbrella, white cover, lotus, treasure vase, goldfish, and panchang.

The cover and the vertical wall of the box body are decorated with a combination of dark eight immortals and miscellaneous treasures, with flower patterns in the middle, which is very delicate.

Inside the box is a gilded copper drawer, in which eight petal-shaped plates and a small round plate are arranged. The inner bottom of the plate is light blue glazed, with a blue-glazed Tuan Shou character painted in the center, decorated with bat patterns, and decorated with folded branches of flowers on the wall. pattern.

Inside the ring foot is a white glazed plain surface, on which there are eight kinds of snacks, all from Mongolia.

Xiao Shisi couldn't help sighing in his heart: It's good to be the emperor, just a box containing snacks is so extravagant, such a box, worth of money, is enough for a family of three to eat for a year and a half.

"Eat, eat!" Emperor Kangxi nodded.

Xiao Shisi bluntly opened his mouth and ate it, and it was really delicious.

But when he was drinking milk tea, Kangxi seemed to ask him casually: "Little Fourteen, are you short of money?"
