Besides, when the emperor went to sit down, the queen was a bit shocked: the emperor didn't say a few words to herself in the main hall and then walked away?Why didn't you ask me to stay?

It wasn't until the emperor took a stack of Chuxiu Palace test papers in his hand that the queen, who was so surprised that he took a moment to beat, hurriedly followed in: "What the emperor said was that I had a headache, so I asked someone to open the window for ventilation, Fearing that the wind would blow the paper away, I casually pressed it under the incense burner. It will not be like this in the future, but as the emperor said, it would be a big deal if sparks splashed on it."

When the queen was sitting opposite the emperor, the emperor raised his head and asked, "Why do you have a headache? Call the imperial doctor to have a look, don't take it seriously."

The queen bowed her head and responded, and the anger just now was thrown into the sky.

I even feel a little regretful that the palace lady put the 'answer sheet of Chuxiu Palace' here. How long has it been since I talked to the emperor like an ordinary couple and cared about my body?She didn't want to mention the arrival of Concubine Nian, otherwise she was afraid that the emperor would be angry with her again.In recent years, their husband and wife have gradually drifted away. It is because one favors the concubine many times and has been awarded many honors, while the other wants to firmly guard the dignity of his queen, so it is inevitable to quarrel.

It's just that it's too late to regret now, the queen could only watch helplessly as the emperor frowned after turning over the paper in his hand.

"Is this the answer from the concubines of Chuxiu Palace who entered the palace this year?" He frowned and said, "I just learned this to learn the rules? I see that many of them are not right!"

The empress boldly said: "Your Majesty, don't be upset, this question was written by the noble concubine, I find it difficult, no wonder..."

Before he finished speaking, the emperor threw a stack of papers on the table, clenched his right hand into a fist and tapped on it: "It's all the original words from the palace rules, what's the difficulty, I still haven't studied it hard!"

If the girls of Chuxiu Palace heard what the emperor said, they would probably cry their hearts out.

Jiang Heng closed the window to block out the gloomy atmosphere.

On the day after the exam, the entire Chuxiu Palace fell into an abnormal downturn, and only half of the people were willing to come out for lunch—although the nanny was responsible for teaching the rules, but after all, they were masters and servants, and they could not force people to eat.Just use words to teach that 'concubines must cherish themselves so that they can better serve the Lord Long Live, and it is not appropriate to be angry without eating'.

Unexpectedly, the newcomers didn't even listen to these words, and they still refused to eat, and each was sad in the room.

There is quite a temperament of "the nuns don't have to draw cakes anymore, we have to show them badly".

Nian Guifei's examination questions dealt a great blow to their delicate and tender hearts.

After all, he is a newcomer in the workplace, and he hasn't been beaten by the society yet.

Sitting in the room, Jiang Heng used a charcoal-like eyebrow pencil to mark the knowledge points he had passed the test.Speaking of the questions asked by the imperial concubine in the coming year, it is indeed very difficult to pick out the details. There is one question that Jiang Heng is not sure about. 29 main courses.

It is said that apart from the same three animals and six animals, the main dishes of the sacrificial ceremony are actually different every year. In the palace regulations Chapter 5 [Palace Festivals, Sacrificial Etiquette], there are examples of offerings for several years, but who would recite this, everyone At most, I recited how the concubines lined up, walked around, and did things on that day.

When I saw the title of the dish name, I was so shocked that I thought I was dazzled.

Moreover, concubines of the year especially love to test numbers, such as the number of eunuchs and eunuchs earned by concubines of different positions in the palace; personal clothing, food, housing and transportation (detailed to get a few pieces of yellow wax and a few sticks of suet wax); The differences in the number of specifications are listed in the examination paper.

These questions require extremely precise memory and sensitivity to numbers.

This test really made me cry.All the show girls deeply felt: The imperial concubine is making things difficult for us. Only after passing the exam can we leave Chuxiu Palace. We will die of old age in Chuxiu Palace for the rest of our lives.

The golden flowers all cried into tears.

"I can't even learn the palace rules, which shows that the mind is impetuous!" These questions are difficult for the women in the harem, but in the eyes of the emperor, as long as they are in the book, they are basic questions.Of course there are servants in the palace, but if the master himself has no idea, wouldn't he not know if he was fooled by the servants?

When they were princes, they kowtowed to Emperor Kangxi every new year, and they had to wear a full set of princely uniforms and present the gift lists of each government. Of course, the servants prepared all the items, but they had to carefully check them several times.If there are one or two usurping items mixed in, there is no place to die.

Take a look at these papers, sometimes there are 38 sacrificial dishes for a year, and it’s fine if you can’t answer them. There are also quite a few newcomers who can’t even answer the order of concubines in the Kunning Palace Grand Sacrifice—sacrifice is always the most important thing and cannot be sloppy.

According to Emperor Yongzheng's mind, this is a group of beautiful girls, who will only be able to eat his grain and rice for the rest of their lives after being left in the palace.If it is an official at the top, he should be exempted from the official and driven home to eat himself.

Under the south window, the queen quickly picked out one of the examination papers, and pushed it to the emperor to beg him to calm down: "Long live Lord, please be considerate, girls have fewer books, especially some beautiful girls are from ordinary banner families, and they can speak Bilingual Manchu and Chinese is pretty good, I don’t think you can understand the written palace rules, how can you stand up to the imperial concubine’s test? No, there are also girls from the rich Manchurian family who answered very well, just look at this question of trusting nobles roll."

It's not necessary for the queen to choose another one to show him, the emperor just found out when he was flipping through it that the only thing he hadn't seen before was the question paper of the nobleman Guerjia.

He had just asked his thirteenth brother about Ama, a nobleman, and today he saw such a test paper with clear handwriting and an accuracy rate of 90.00%, and he felt in his heart that Guanbao's family education is also good, it seems It is a good family.

With the thumb of the mutton fat jade wrench, the emperor paused for a moment on Mr. Xingui's test paper.

But apart from this paper, eyes full of vermilion pens and red crosses are still in front of my eyes, and there are several beautiful women within sight of the emperor, probably because they refused to let the answer paper be empty, so they made up some rules and wrote them on it, which made the emperor angry Laughed: He was even thinking, these rookies and show girls have nuns staring at their hands to teach the rules, wishing they could break open and feed them into their mouths, and they would answer in a mess. Those who came out of the imperial examinations would go to the officialdom straight away Scholars, can you manage the world for him!

There are not a few magistrates who he has dealt with before.

If it weren't for people who couldn't split it, the emperor really wished he could send out a hundred of himself and his thirteenth brother, and give one to each place.

In short, it was this newcomer's answer sheet, which set the emperor's heart on fire.

The queen secretly said something bad: the emperor's stubborn temper has come up, in fact, if the newcomers stand in front of each other like a coquettish flower, young and pretty, if they make a small mistake and act coquettishly, the emperor will probably let it go.

But the paper with black and white letters, the emperor probably judged it by the standard of reading the book, wouldn't he be angry after reading it?

The queen turned her head and winked, and asked Xueya to bring a few tangerines from the Nanguo Depot in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The sweet and sour ones could be eaten by the emperor to calm down the anger.

Just when the queen removed the armor and peeled the tangerines herself, the emperor had already made a decision: "After the election, the beautiful women enter the palace to learn the rules first, and it will be settled later, so that they can learn it before going out!" As for the maids who were born in Baoyi who were selected into the palace, there was this rule originally, and they had to learn for three months before they could be released as errands.

The queen handed over the peeled mandarin orange with distinct petals, and answered yes in a low voice.He said in his heart: Going around, the emperor still came to tell himself that the imperial concubine's idea is very good - probably what the imperial concubine does is right.

Before her heart was over, Emperor Yongzheng spoke again: "It's just that the noble concubine should not take the lead in such a matter. It should be the emperor's mother who brought you to decide. And it should be a rule from the beginning. The palace rules are taught to them in order of priority before they are tested."

The emperor couldn't see that the exam questions this time might be a surprise exam, otherwise it wouldn't be so messy.Mrs. Xingui probably studied hard on weekdays, the rest of the beautiful girls probably entered the palace and didn't pay attention to learning the rules. They were fooling around every day, and suddenly they had to take an exam, so they gave messy answers.

"Forget it, anyway, this is the first time, so we should try to implement it. The queen can also use this time to make the precepts standard, and follow it in the future, so it won't go too far." After speaking, she pointed to the The second test paper shows that this is outrageous!

It was spread that his concubines couldn't even explain the sacrificial rituals in the palace clearly, it was ridiculous!

Emperor Yongzheng, the top scholar, was furious.

After eating two tangerines and pondering for a moment, the emperor looked at the answer sheet of the trustees and said: "Furthermore, the emperor's wife has rewarded the people in Chuxiu Palace with clothing materials, especially the trustees. In this case, I will summon them first She will return once. This matter, the queen, you can arrange it."

Seeing that the empress was stunned, the emperor was even more upset: the empress dowager clearly rewarded the newcomers, so did the empress think that she would disregard the empress dowager's face for the sake of the concubine?

It's not a question of his relationship with the Empress Dowager's mother and son, even if it was the disagreement between him and Concubine De in the previous life, there will be no less procedures to follow, it's a matter of filial piety and reputation.

I don't mention it behind the scenes, but as long as the queen mother rewards it with great fanfare, when this matter comes to the surface, it must follow the rules of the surface.

The face of a noble concubine is useful in the harem, but what is it in front of the queen mother?What is it in front of righteousness and filial piety, of course the emperor must set an example for his family members and subjects all over the world, his mother is kind and his son is filial.

The queen mother rewarded him, and he wanted to accompany the queen mother to reward him.Since the Empress Dowager rewarded the honored person more generously, he had an extra meeting.

Walking here from the queen, it seems that he values ​​his wife's main palace, and he is also telling the newcomers, don't care who locked you in, who gave you the test questions, but the queen is the one who has the final say in the harem. The lord of the sixth house has the desire to despise presumptuousness.

Just because she knew the emperor's intentions, the queen stayed in a daze.

The emperor did not say anything according to the queen mother's wishes, but actually gave her prestige regardless of the embarrassment of the imperial concubine?

Where did the sun come from?

When Jiang Heng waited for the scores, he got new clothes at the same time.

And this time, there were more tailor-made clothes for her than last time, and all of them were very respectful and polite, which made Jiang Heng astonished: I can't see that this palace respects Xueba so much.

"Your Majesty, please take a look at these clothes. If there is something not to your liking, the servants will go back and change it."

In the lead was a nun with vines embroidered on her collar and cuffs.The clothes of palace people have always been simple and concise, and those who can wear patterned clothes are all aunts in charge.

Jiang Heng walked over and looked at it and wondered: "Did you send these two bodies by mistake?"

The clothes are all carried on a large square mahogany tray, and the beige cotton cloth is placed under it. The dull cotton cloth makes the clothes on the top very dazzling.

At a glance, Jiang Heng found that two of them were not the material of the mandarin ducks that the Shangyi Supervisor had taken from her at all.

The grape-patterned mother smiled and said: "These two clothes are specially given to the young master by the empress." She paused for a while, and then said again: "The nobleman needs it."

Following behind her, the three nuns who were slightly staggered by half a step also said in unison: "My lord, please try on the clothes."

Jiang Heng looked at the four similar smiling faces, and thought to himself, the queen rewarded him with clothes alone... This is a side story that he didn't know about.
