The Struggle History of the Fourteenth Qing Dynasty

Until the end of the dinner, the fourteenth brother was always sitting next to Kangxi, chatting and laughing with Kangxi, and the third elder brother Chengjun was full of anger, but there was nothing he could do about this scene!

Who made him have to owe it!

But after the dinner party, Brother Fourteen disappeared. Kangxi knew what he was going to do, and was looking forward to his birthday noodles.

Sure enough, after everyone went down, it stopped. When the lights first came on, Elder Fourteen came and brought in a bowl of birthday noodles.

"Huang Ama." The fourteenth elder brother put the birthday noodles in front of Kangxi: "My son wishes Ama a happy birthday."

This is a small bowl of birthday noodles, a nest of shredded noodles finely mixed together, clear yellowish bone broth, white chopped green onion, green coriander, and a double-yellow poached egg.

"Get up, good boy, are these a bunch of noodles?" Kangxi smiled: "I heard that you prepared it a long time ago, but I've been thinking about it since I didn't eat it."

"Huang Ama, this bowl is what I went to offer to Huang Ma today." He was talking about Empress Xiaokang.

Kangxi smiled and nodded: "You have a heart, those brothers of yours don't mean that, hum!"

The fourteenth elder brother pursed his lips and laughed: "Actually, it's my son who wants to hide. The eldest brother and the prince's elder brother are too noisy. The third brother always likes to admonish people."

"If you don't say it, I know it in my heart." Kangxi lowered his head to eat the noodles. The noodle bowl was not big, and the soup was delicious.

The fourteenth brother knew that Kangxi's birthday was actually not happy. If he hadn't made such a move later, Kangxi would have been even more depressed: "Huang Ama, eat less at night, you will accumulate food, let's go out for a walk, The apricot blossoms are in full bloom now, and the outside is beautiful."

"Then let's go out for a walk." Kangxi said indifferently: "Have someone clear the place in advance."

Where the emperor is going, someone will naturally prepare it in advance. Those women in the harem who can meet the emperor by chance are all the result of painstaking efforts and tricks.

Kangxi doesn't want to see so many women now, so he asked someone to clear the way in advance, and he and his fourteenth son walked in Changchun Garden to relax.

Brother Fourteen knew that he was in a bad mood, so he tried his best to make him happy. Sure enough, Kangxi's mood improved a lot after relaxing.

Kangxi cheered up and announced a few things the next day.

First, the king of Chengjun lost his dignity in front of the imperial court, withdrew his title of king of Chengjun, and was demoted to Baylor, Cheng Baylor!

The second is to marry, this time to marry the thirteen princesses to Mongolia, and marry Cangjin, the king of Wengniute Duleng County.

Third, Emperor Kangxi intends to tour the north and personally send the bride off!

Fourteenth brother was also a little confused, he was in a good mood yesterday, how about today?

He went to send Kangxi the silver that was distributed last month, and looked at Kangxi with concern: "Huang Ama, why did you bring a wedding with you during the northern tour? Are you in such a hurry?"

"It's not in a hurry. Last year, the Wengte Niu Department came to ask for marriage, but I never agreed. But on the second day of my Longevity Day, the Karaqin Department received news that Duan Jing was ill." Kangxi said: " The imperial doctor who married her in the past said vaguely, if Duan Jing is gone, then she will marry a princess, and it is better to find a good forehead for Wen Ke now than to be in a hurry."

Princess Heshuo Duanjing, the fifth daughter of Emperor Kangxi, is the third princess, and her mother is the cloth nobleman Zhaojia, the daughter of Shenling Seksehe.

He was a nobleman in Kangxi's early years, and so far, he is still just a nobleman.

Princess Heshuo Duanjing was born to Kangxi's favorite concubine Zhaojia. Yuxue was cute and intelligent since she was a child.It is regarded as the apple of the eye by Kangxi.The princess is proficient in poetry, and knows a little about riding and shooting.

At the age of 16, she was conferred the title of Princess Heshuo Duanjing and married a beloved man.

Since then, the husband and wife have been in harmony, and the years have been quiet.

But suddenly there was news that she was weak, which made Kangxi worried.

To be honest, Kangxi’s women and children in the early years actually had feelings, especially Princess Duanjing who helped Meng for many years and paid a lot for the Qing Dynasty in Mongolia. So far, she has no children!

As for all the princesses in Fumeng, Kangxi ordered someone to set up a long history of guards, and regarded the princess's tent as a Baylor-level existence.

Elder Fourteen thought for a while, and he remembered something. He remembered that some younger sisters followed up to watch a palace drama in the Qing Dynasty, in which it said that Princess Duanjing, Hong Xing, was out of the wall and was killed by her concubine.

Presumably even if this happened, the imperial court had to cover it up for the sake of face and the stability of Mongolia.

The Mongols no longer care about chastity, and it is impossible for their women to have relations with other men.

In particular, the princesses of the Qing Dynasty had a lot of power in Mongolia. This was the right given to the princess by the Qing court and a way to protect the princess' safety.

"I want to go and see Duan Jing." Kangxi said: "I also want to send Wen Ke to get married. After your sister got married, she is the most loved by everyone in the palace."

What else can Fourteen say?He had no choice but to get ready right away.

These three orders, Kangxi came down together, with a vigorous and decisive attitude, not at all indecisive like a 50-year-old old man.

Princess Thirteen was raised by Concubine Yi, but her biological mother is Concubine Min. Thirteen and her two younger sisters often see each other. As an elder brother, he wants to add makeup to the younger sisters, but he himself is getting married. Some can't be opened.

Fortunately, Fourteen came.

"To add makeup to Thirteenth Sister, I've thought about it. Don't we have a business of buying cattle and sheep in Mongolia? From now on, this cow will be in the Ongniud tribe where Thirteenth Sister is, and I will give Thirteenth Sister 1000 Two pieces of gold and ten thousand taels of silver will be sent in your name." Brother Fourteen said, "The same goes for Younger Sister Fifteen, impartial."

Elder Brother Thirteen doesn't have much money himself, it's all earned by Fourteen's help, and his niece Zhang Jia's family doesn't have much money to add makeup to the princess.

Concubine Min has not been favored for many years, and she may not be able to see Kangxi for three to five months. Although Kangxi will not let her be rewarded for the sake of giving birth to two daughters and one son, her favor is indeed not as high as before .

"Fourteenth brother, thank you!" Thirteenth brother said gratefully, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even have anything I could afford."

Er Niang is taken care of by Empress De Fei in the palace, so it doesn't matter if he is an elder brother.

What's more, they are all sealed now, and they are still in the honor of the fourteenth elder brother.

Er Niang raised the fifteenth younger sister, so she also had a support, but the thirteenth younger sister was with Empress Yifei.

They were beyond their reach, and when they went to see it occasionally, they had to see the face of Concubine Yi, but Concubine Yi did not have a daughter, so she treated the thirteenth princess very well, treating her like her own daughter.

After the fifth princess got married, the thirteenth princess became Kangxi's favorite daughter.

The Thirteenth Princess was taught very well by Concubine Yi, she was generous, straightforward, dignified and polite.

But she is still very nervous about getting married. Concubine Yi only has such a daughter, so she also prepared a lot of makeup for the thirteenth princess. Sister, I have something ready.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has a lot of things, as long as the Lord Long Live gives an order, they can immediately save a decent dowry for the princess. the whole dowry.

The draft here is handed over to the empress dowager and several concubines. Kangxi is going to leave, and this last review before the imperial court will be held after the northern tour.

Kangxi also let out the rumor that he was going to choose the crown prince for the crown prince.

Well, as soon as the news got out, this year's draft became even more lively.

The crown prince is also a little excited, after all, the first wife is precious, especially the crown princess, this is the future queen, the mother of the world.

Although things were very busy, they still set off after seven days, as usual.

The thirteenth princess is the one who is going to get married. Kangxi allowed Concubine Yi to go with Concubine Min. This is the kindness that the fourteenth elder brother asked for.

Concubine Yi and Concubine Min are very grateful to Fourteen.

Concubine De didn't go, but Concubine De gave Concubine Min a lot of things, asking her to add makeup to Princess Thirteen.

Concubine Min doesn't have many good things herself, but thanks to Concubine De, she can afford to add makeup to her daughter.

It was also the fourteenth elder brother who begged Kangxi to let the adoptive mother and biological mother of the thirteenth princess go to marry, and Kangxi also went in person.

This is a great honor.

At least Wang Cangjin of Weng Niut Duleng County thought so, because he was going to marry the thirteenth princess, who was conferred the title of Princess Heshuo Wenke.

So he made preparations very early, but he didn't expect that the person who arrived earlier would come before Sheng Jia arrived.

It was the person sent by Fourteen Baylor: "Not much else to say, the king of the county will be our Baylor's thirteenth brother-in-law in the future. As long as Princess Wen Ke lives well here, we will buy cattle here every year in Baylor. The price is easy to say , and provide an additional [-] catties of tea for the princess to make tea, and [-] catties of flower and fruit tea for the princess as a reward."

The Mongols are not short of bravery, but they lack tea, salt, and silk. These three things are hard currency in Mongolia.

The fourteenth elder brother increased the bargaining chip for Princess Wen Ke in order to make Cangjin treat Princess Wen Ke better, and even better.

But the King of Cangjin still has a condition: "Then I want one hundred cans of fermented bean curd every year."

The fermented bean curd was spread to the grasslands, and it immediately became everyone's favorite, especially the fermented bean curd is salty, and the stewed meat with fermented bean curd juice is supremely delicious!

"No problem! Give the princess and the county king every year, two hundred cans of fermented bean curd per catty." The visitor was very generous.

This made King Cangjin reevaluate Princess Wen Ke's status in the royal family.

In history, this county king didn't think much of the princess, not to mention that the princess was newly married and gave birth to twin daughters, and the princess died because of dystocia. That's the record.

In fact, he didn't pay much attention to Princess Wen Ke because Princess Wen Ke was not valued in the royal family. Kangxi personally married her, and the political significance was greater than family affection.

What's more, Shisan himself was ineffective at that time, Concubine Min died young, and the three motherless children inside and outside the palace lived like invisible people.

It is different now.

Concubine Min was not dead, Thirteen followed Fourth Elder Brother to work in the household department.

Kangxi's marriage did not change, but his biological mother and adoptive mother came together.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has a formal dowry for the marriage of Princess Heshuo. This rule cannot be changed, but there is no limit to adding dowry.

In addition to the fact that Kangxi gave the marriage in person, the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not dare to be perfunctory, so the dowry and makeup were very huge.

Princess Wen Ke never thought that there would be such a huge dowry.

However, what moved King Cangjin even more was the benefits promised by the fourteenth elder brother. The purchase of cattle in their tribe would cost at least [-] heads per year.

The amount of tea and fermented bean curd sent is also huge, but the premise is that Princess Wen Ke lives a stable and happy life.

This made Cangjin County King have to pay attention to Princess Wen Ke.

In order to make the princess happy when she came, the county king sent away all his concubines. Fortunately, he has no sons, only two daughters, both of whom are under five years old.

And their biological mother died of illness long ago, and the two little girls are not bad.

When Kangxi and the others arrived here, they found that it was much better than expected. The King of Cangjin County looked brave, but it could be seen that he came to greet him after taking a bath and having his face shaved. It looks much more pleasing to the eye.

Otherwise, instead of taking a bath, he would just burn incense and come to greet Sheng Jia, then he would really be a greasy man.

After receiving the holy driver, the whole Weng Niu Te department boiled!

The roasted sheep started to walk, the beef was stewed, the Mongolian tent was set up, and the entire grassland became active.

The thirteenth elder brother is here, and he is going to get married in the autumn. This time, he is sending his younger sister to get married. He is also here to see her brother-in-law. The other elder brothers are optional, only Thirteen and Fourteen, alone I talked to the county king twice, and we reached an agreement.

In addition, this county king is actually okay, he doesn't pay attention to hygiene, and he doesn't have a lot of children, so Princess Wen Ke will be his mother when he comes in.

Two little girls are nothing, just a dowry.

The wedding was very grand. The King of Cangjin County was very satisfied with Princess Wen Ke. The next day he specially took the princess with him. According to the etiquette, he offered tea to Kangxi, and even tea to his biological mother Concubine Min and adoptive mother Concubine Yi. As a son-in-law, it’s fine. With a big gift, tea was served, and according to Mongolian customs, cattle, sheep and dairy products were given to the two mothers in return.

Kangxi was satisfied, and so were the two concubines.

King Cangjin was also very satisfied, having obtained a princess daughter-in-law with a huge dowry and subsequent benefits.

As for Princess Wen Ke, she is also very satisfied with King Cangjin. The first is that King Cangjin is young and strong, and the second is that King Cangjin respects her. The princess was very satisfied.

Princess Wen Ke grew up with Concubine Yi, and she has some of Concubine Yi's bright and cheerful personality, and Concubine Yi's bitterness and jealousy.

Moreover, she has a mother-in-law, a concubine, a brother and a sister. Unlike in history, Princess Wen Xian is also very confident, and there is a lot of dowry, and her brother added a lot of makeup to her. Fourteen Baylor told her that as long as she had anything to do, the cooperation with the Ongniud tribe would be terminated.

This is an ultimate killer.

Who will make life difficult for interests?

So as long as Princess Wen Ke doesn't kill herself, there is basically no problem. If she has a child in the future, she will be the next patriarch of the Wengniute tribe, and the position of the county king must be the son of the princess.

And Kangxi gave the marriage in person, which is unique.

After the marriage was completed, Kangxi continued his northern tour and arrived at the tribe where Princess Duanjing was: the Harqin tribe.
