Zong Qiongyao's Good and Not Good People

In the Forbidden City at this time, Emperor Qianlong was discussing with the Empress Dowager in the Palace of Compassion, and what he was talking about was Prince Duan and his two children.Prince Duan was one of the three kings with different surnames canonized at the beginning of Qianlong's accession to the throne, and it was also the one that made him worry the least.Qianlong was too lazy to look at him, so he sent him to Jingzhou far away.Who knew that even if it was like this, he could make such a big mistake.

Fortunately, the rescue was timely, and the civil unrest did not spread. By the way, the anti-Qing forces instigating behind it were also attacked.Qianlong was satisfied with this result, the only thing that bothered him was the pair of children left by Prince Duan.Prince Duan has already died in battle, no matter what the reason is, if he treats these orphans badly, it will chill people's hearts.

That daughter is okay to say, I heard that she is already 17 years old, and she should get married after observing her filial piety.Anyway, there are a lot of proposals for marriage proposals in Mongolia every year, so just pick one that looks good.At that time, she will be recognized as a concubine under the name of that concubine, and she will be named a Princess and a princess, and she will marry in Mongolia and live together.But Prince Duan still left behind a son, which is not easy to handle.

With a son, the title of Prince Duan can be passed on, even if he is demoted to a lower rank, he will still be the Duke of Duoluo.The family in the Qing Dynasty had a big business, so it didn't feel bad to raise an idle prince Qianlong.But he is not reconciled!How much trouble Prince Duan has caused him, and he has to raise his son for that guy, he feels wronged when he thinks about it.But judging from the current situation, it is not enough not to support it.

"Emperor, He Wan is going to get married in a few days, and there seems to be no one around Ai's family. When Ge Ge from Prince Duan's family comes, let's put him next to Ai's family to relieve boredom." Seeing her son worrying, the queen mother said, Naturally, he will share his worries.She patted Qianlong's hand and said: "Besides, the child has to keep his filial piety. It happens that I also have a Buddhist hall here, so it's more convenient."

"Well, this arrangement is very good." Qianlong nodded, he wished for such an arrangement by the Queen Mother.There are many people seeking marriage in Mongolia, but there are few girls of royal age.Apart from He Wan, there was only the four-year-old fourth daughter of the emperor left in the palace.Prince Duan's Gege's filial piety is twenty, just in time.Moreover, girls who have been educated by the queen mother are naturally hard to choose.

"Also, little elder brother of Prince Duan's family, what's the emperor's plan?" The queen mother also nodded with satisfaction, and suggested with a smile: "I heard that the child and Yongqi are born in one year, why don't you let him have sex with Yongqi?" A companion is ready. It happened that Yongqi was still saying two days ago that the two companions around her were not good at reading, and they might as well be better than the two haha ​​beads of the Fu family, so I changed them."

"Yongqi's companion is not good at reading?" Qianlong raised his eyebrows in surprise, he had never heard of this.Although he is busy with government affairs, he still pays great attention to his sons' studies. He often doesn't ask questions, and even goes to inspect them himself, but he doesn't notice.However, this is not a big deal, Qianlong waved his hand and said: "Since Yongqi said that the Fu family brothers are making progress, let them step up."

The Empress Dowager's face froze slightly after hearing this, and her smile restrained a little.One of the companions of the fifth son of the emperor, Yongqi, was originally Niu Hulu's family, and he was regarded as the empress dowager's distant nephew.When the queen mother said this, it was clearly the rhythm of eye drops.However, the emperor's son listened to the superficial meaning and actually pushed the Fu family brothers to take the position. How could this not make the Queen Mother feel dark.

Qianlong frowned thinking about something, but didn't see the Queen Mother's expression.Speaking of the Fu family brothers, he felt familiar, as if he had heard someone mention it before, but suddenly he couldn't remember it.After thinking about it for a long time, Qianlong finally remembered that these two were the distant relatives of Lingfei Wei, and she said they were also very smart and motivated.When he came back to his senses, he realized that his old lady's complexion was not good.

After thinking for a while, Qianlong understood what was going on, so he hurried to remedy it.He smiled apologetically and said, "Mother of the Queen, Prince Duan's elder brother is still young, so let's make him the crown prince first. When he becomes an adult, we will make arrangements. As for the two companions of Yongqi, we will pretend to be the prince first." The eldest son will study with you. After two years, the two of them will be slightly older, and then they will be recruited as imperial guards."

Generally speaking, only the hereditary princes and county kings have the prince's son and the county prince's son, and the elder brother of the Duan prince's family is not qualified at all.Therefore, Qianlong simply sealed him as his son, and he didn't say he was a prince or a county king.Besides, such an eight-year-old child, who knows whether he will grow up or not, and what he will look like when he grows up.

The Empress Dowager still kept a straight face and didn't pay much attention to Qianlong.Can the accompanying reading of the half-baked prince compare with the accompanying reading of the favored prince?If she hadn't been optimistic about Yong Qi, why would she arrange the children of her own family to be with Yong Qi.Could it be that the emperor is dissatisfied with what he is doing now?Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager's heart suddenly tightened, and it appeared on her face unconsciously.

Seeing his old lady like this, Qianlong didn't need to think about it to know that this old lady was thinking wildly again.However, he didn't make a sound to comfort her, so let her misunderstand.It is inevitable that the harem women will profit for the family, but everything must be under his control.Today's matter should be regarded as a reminder to the Queen Mother.

Keshan rode on the horse, looked up at the Beijing city wall in front, and sighed secretly.After going around for two lifetimes, his final destination is still in this city.The brightly lit city in my memory has been turned back in time for two or three hundred years, and it has become the simple and strong city wall.It wasn't until this moment that Keshan really accepted the fact of traveling through time and space.

There were already people waiting at the station outside the city, the eunuchs and nuns sent by the emperor.The eunuchs are here to proclaim the decree, and the nuns are here to teach the rules.The emperor ordered them to stay overnight at the post station, and Nu Dahai would lead them into the palace to have an audience with them tomorrow morning.There are many rules in the palace, and there is no time to teach them in one night, generally good is enough, and the rest can only be taught in the future.

Nu Dahai was somewhat dissatisfied with this arrangement, but he could only slander in his heart.He originally planned to bring Xinyue to stay at his house for one night, so as to fulfill Xinyue's expectations for his family.For her family members, Nu Dahai is very confident, they will definitely be able to make Xinyue feel the warmth of her family.Unfortunately, a decree from the emperor made his plan come to nothing.

The next day's audience was after the early court, in the warm pavilion of the Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion and Peace.Because there is still a big man like Nu Dahai, only the emperor and queen mother are present, and there are no concubines.Keshan came in with his head slightly lowered, and then made a big salute and kowtowed, calling him a slave or something.It can't be seen from his face, but he is doing psychological construction in his heart.Do as the Romans do, we do as the Romans do...

Hearing the man's deep and melodious cry, Keshan slowly raised his head and stood up, taking the opportunity to glance at the two big Buddhas sitting upright.In the middle is the Empress Dowager Chongqing, with a benevolent look and nothing to see.Slightly to the left, sitting should be Qianlong, a young man with a handsome face.young people?Keshan couldn't help but glanced again, he looked like he was in his 20s.

It is now the 14th year of Qianlong, and the emperor is almost 40 years old, so well maintained? !But it has nothing to do with him, he just needs to hug the emperor's thigh tightly, no matter whether he is a child with a yellow mouth or seventy or eighty.Feeling that the crescent moon next to him wanted to pull him, Keshan frowned indistinctly, and slightly dodged to the side.

The empress dowager was very kind, she called the two of them to her side, and kindly asked them what their names were, how old they were, and the hardships on the way... Xinyue felt so lucky, she never thought that the empress dowager was so noble and kind, a bit Nor harsh.This made her think of her elders, and she couldn't help lying on the empress dowager's lap and began to suffer, trying to drain all her grievances and sorrows.

When the new moon was not seen, the empress dowager's face became ugly.What's going on with this new moon, I haven't finished crying yet.Tears were not allowed in the palace, and it was fine to cry twice when I first came here, so why didn't you persuade me to listen.Moreover, if you want to cry, don't lie on her body and cry. Seeing that the clothes are already wet, I don't know if it is tears, saliva or snot.nausea!

But at this time, the queen mother couldn't push people away abruptly, but had to persuade them softly.Qianlong naturally saw the predicament of his old lady, and was about to open his mouth to make a rescue, when a childish voice caught his attention.It was the kid named Keshan who was talking, and Qianlong looked at him carefully, but he couldn't move his eyes any longer.How come it looks like this? !

"Sister, stop crying. Your crying will make the empress dowager feel uncomfortable too. It's really our fault." Keshan grabbed Xinyue's collar and dragged her away so that she could no longer cling to her. Queen Mother.The woman didn't see it, but he saw it, and the queen mother's complexion was not good.In the future, he will stay in the palace, so it is impossible to offend the queen mother.

Nu Dahai stood at the side, except for returning to the emperor, his eyes never left the crying Crescent Moon.Naturally, he couldn't see the queen mother's face, he only saw Keshan dragging Xinyue roughly.It's that nasty kid again!Nu Dahai couldn't help but wanted to rush up, but fortunately, his rationality reminded him what kind of place it was, so he could only hold back the impulse in aggrieved manner.

The queen mother finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she was able to get away.She stroked Keshan's head lovingly. Although this child is young, he is sensible, much better than his sister.However, the Empress Dowager was anxious to go back to take a shower and clean up, and turned to Qianlong and asked, "Emperor, what do you want to seal them? They lost their parents when they were young, so we can't treat them badly. The emperor?"

After calling twice in a row, Qianlong came back to his senses, took Keshan's hand, and said with a smile: "What the emperor's mother said is that the royal family will naturally not treat meritorious ministers badly. Let Xinyue be temporarily sealed. As for the title Canonize it before getting married. Keshan is still young, so let’s make him the prince’s son, and he will inherit the title of Ama when he grows up.” After seeing this child, Qianlong changed his mind.

The queen mother looked at her son in surprise, this was different from what they had discussed before.However, the queen mother did not ask in person, but just looked at Keshan deliberately.Qianlong turned to Nu Dahai again, and said in a loud voice: "Nu Dahai, it is your merit to quell the war in Jingzhou in one fell swoop, and it is your fault for not saving Prince Duan's family. The merits and demerits cannot be offset, what do you think I should do?"

Nu Dahai immediately knelt down to plead guilty, Qianlong was about to say something more, but saw Xinyue knelt down abruptly.She kowtowed heavily first, then raised her face and said with pear blossoms in the rain: "Your Majesty, you can't condemn General Nu Dahai, it's not his fault. The slave family is very grateful that he saved the sister and brother of the slave. The slave I believe that the slave Ama is also grateful to General Nu Dahai in heaven..."

"When the slave was in the most critical moment, it was General Nu Dahai who arrived and gave the slave hope. Although he was a step late and failed to save the slave's family, he did his best. Your Majesty, please, I beg you, Xinyue." While kowtowing, she still wanted to find a companion, and grabbed Keshan's clothes, "Keshan, you also beg the emperor to forgive the general."

Keshan wanted to cover his face a little bit, this woman was born for bad things by nature.Seeing what Qianlong meant, Nu Dahai was just a slap in the face, and his reward would be indispensable in the end.But once she came out like this, what else could Qianlong do?Not to mention rewards, it would be good not to punish Nu Dahai.Moreover, he obviously felt that his hand was getting tighter and tighter.It hurts!

He shook Qianlong's arm, pretending to be ignorant and wide-eyed, and said: "Your Majesty, you also said that merits and demerits cannot be offset, so why not reward for meritorious deeds and punish deeds, okay?" Acting like a baby and being cute, I'm really not skilled in business.I have to give Qianlong an excuse to keep singing the red face and white face.

"Well, what Keshan said is good." Qianlong patted the child in front of him with more satisfaction, and it seemed that Geshan was very clever.He looked at Nu Dahai on the ground, and said, "If you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded, and if you have done wrong, you will be punished. This is exactly the way it should be. Nu Dahai, I will promote you to be the Minister of the Interior, and I will give you double-eyed feathers and a yellow mandarin jacket. This is a reward; I will reward you again." Punishing you with three years of salary is a penalty."

Hearing this result, Nu Dahai heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly knelt down to thank him.He was very grateful to Xinyue, although she might have been a disservice, but it was also because she was worried about herself, this kind-hearted Crescent Moon.But he didn't thank Keshan at all, who knows what this vicious kid is thinking, the emperor promoted his position, he must be very disappointed.

"I thank the emperor for his grace, and I am willing to accept the punishment. The grace is so great, and I will do my best to repay it with all my strength." Hearing this, Qianlong nodded with satisfaction, but Keshan was not so optimistic.This man spoke nicely, but unfortunately the battle of Jingzhou was his last victory.Regardless of whether he was smeared or not, the face of the royal family was smeared by him.

"Okay, that should be sealed, now all that's left is to arrange a place for you." The Queen Mother hurriedly said, her legs were sticky and chilly, and she couldn't sit still, "Elder brother has arranged Good courtyard, Keshan went to have a look, and if there is something inappropriate, please tell the servants. As for Xinyue, I have already tidied up the room here, and I will let Nanny Gui take you to have a look."

"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, please listen to my servant." Seeing that Xinyue was about to be taken away, Nu Dahai hurriedly said: "Gege and Shizi have just lost their parents, and it is the time when they need the warmth of a family, so it is best to have a big family around them. The servant escorted them to Beijing from Jingzhou for more than a month, and got along very well with Gege and the prince. The servant begged the emperor and the queen mother for permission to let the slave family take care of Gege and the prince."

Xinyue was already sad, and she didn't know when she would see General Nu Dahai again.Now hearing such a request from him, the joy in my heart cannot be expressed in words.She just knew that this man understood her, and they really had the same heart.Therefore, Xinyue nodded again and again, and said: "This is good, this is good, we are willing, we are willing."

They were so happy that the remaining three became angry.Keshan's small face was serious, and he gave the two men a hard look, afraid that Qianlong would have a convulsion and really let him live with Nu Dahai.Fortunately, looking at the swarthy face of this great god, it shouldn't be that interesting.Also, under normal circumstances, there is no reason for the clan to live in the servant's house.

Qianlong squinted at Nu Dahai, why didn't he see that this guy was so out of tune before? !There are many rules and rules in the palace, and there is no family atmosphere. He knows this, but who dares to mention it in front of him?Yo, this Nu Dahai dares!Qianlong swore that he didn't mean to appreciate it at all.Being slapped in the face by a slave and praising him, being an emperor is not so cheap.

The Empress Dowager was even angrier. In this palace, she is the head of the family.Nu Dahai almost said that the palace is cold and not like a home, isn't this poking her back?And this new moon, what's going on?She also nodded in agreement, she thought so too, right?In a blink of an eye, the queen mother looked at Keshan, wanting to see what the child had to say.

"Lord Nu Dahai was just joking," Keshan gritted his teeth under the pressure and said while being stared at by two big Buddhas, "From now on, this is our home, where else can we go to experience the warmth of our family? In the words of Passover, the empress dowager is like Mama, and the emperor is like Ama, who else needs to be surrounded? The emperor, the empress dowager, Keshan will stay here, okay?"

After getting a satisfactory answer, the two Buddhas nodded with a smile, and no one paid any attention to the man and woman with bitter faces.The Queen Mother winked, and Nanny Gui led the two maids half-supporting and half-dragging Xinyue away.After dismissing the disappointed Nu Dahai, Wu Shulai by Qianlong's side personally sent Keshan to elder brother's office.
