The Legend of Zhen Huan through Xuan Ling

From April to mid-May, Zhen Huan became more and more favored, promoted all the way, and stopped when she was the fifth-rank concubine Rou. Li Cairen from Yanxi Palace moved to Tangli Palace, so Tangli Palace received more and more favors, plus Shen Deyi, Concubine Qian, and Concubine Shun who were originally friendly with Zhen Huan attracted attention for a while .

The palace was originally divided into two giants, the Queen's line (Zhu Yixiu, Qi Yuebin, Gan Jiahui, Li Xinyu, Tang Jingyan, Feng Ruozhao), the Ming Concubine's line (Miao Liyan, Cao Qinmo, Fei Yunyan, Lu Yingfeng, Zhao Xianhui), and the rest were scattered separately. Within a year or two after the newcomers entered the palace in the 12th year of the Yuan Dynasty, they were divided into two lines, Shende Yimai (Liu Lingxian, Sun Miaoqing, An Ningrong, Shi Yiyun), and Zhen Huan's lineage (Zhen Huan, Xia Shi, Mu Shi, Li Shi) ), and the rest are scattered separately.

In the harem, the situation where the empress was the sole leader was finally broken, but the empress dowager was happy with it. Regardless of the former dynasty or the harem, there were only two words: "balance". Among them, the queen is bigger.Although the empress is from the Zhu family, the empress dowager still prefers her son. The empress and concubine Ming are considered to be in the same line, Shen Deyi and the concubine Rou are in the line, and the other concubines are in the line. There are three lines in total, so it is best to have a tripartite confrontation.

Before the middle of May, Du Liangyuan and Du Peiyun were promoted to the fifth-rank concubine and given the title "Yun", Mu Guiren was promoted to the fifth-rank Xiaoyuan, Liang Cairen was promoted to the sixth-rank nobleman, and Li Cairen was promoted to the sixth-rank nobleman.

In mid-May, the weather in Kyoto became hotter and hotter. Due to the hot summer in central Beijing, the emperors of all dynasties were lucky to escape the summer heat at the Taiping Palace in Xijing before June every year, and returned to Kyoto in early autumn.Xuan Ling is not afraid of heat, but the ancestral system is like this, and most of the palace family members are expensive and not resistant to heat, so with one order, the House of Internal Affairs has already been properly arranged.Xuanling also led the concubines, relatives and officials as usual, and drove out of the capital in a mighty way, to stay in the Taiping Palace.

The Taiping Palace was originally rebuilt from the "Haoshan Garden" of Emperor Jingzong of the former Dynasty. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has excellent scenery.In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the world was peaceful and prosperous, and pavilions and pavilions were successively built on the old scenery of Haoshan Garden. After nearly a hundred years, it finally became the largest royal palace.

Apart from the queen and concubines with sons, Xuan Ling only brought concubines Shun, Concubine Qian, Concubine Rou, and Concubine Yun with him.

This time Xixing escaped from the summer heat, the Empress Dowager thought it would be troublesome to raise teachers and mobilize the crowd, and said that she still stayed in the palace without feeling afraid of the heat in her old body, so before leaving, Xuanling left Concubine Ning Gan Jiahui and Concubine Miao Liyan in the palace. Jingdu, accompanying the Queen Mother, took charge of the affairs of the harem temporarily by the way, and also promoted Liu Lingxian to be the fourth-rank Ronghua to assist them.

The Taiping Palace is built according to the situation of Gelu Mountain. There are gardens in the mountains, mountains in the gardens, mixed with lakes and dense forests.

Xuan Ling chose the cool and tranquil Nanxun Hall with water and greenery as his sleeping hall, and Zhu Yixiu naturally lived in the Light and Wind Jiyue Hall, which was comparable in ritual and ritual.

Mrs. Duan Qi Yuebin likes a cool place and chose Yuhua Pavilion; Jing Zhaoyi and Li Xinyu liked quietness, so she chose Qiushui Pavilion which is farther away; Cui Shuyi and Tang Jingyan also chose Feiyu Pavilion which is farther away; honored concubine Feng Ruozhao went to Songfeng Xuan, the scenery there is suitable, and she and Kang Diji like it very much; the concubine Cao Qinmo chose Yanshuangzhai, the temperature is just right, and for the three-year-old He Wendiji, she is less likely to get sick; Li Jieyu Fei Yunyan chose the luxurious Shen Detang; Xin Jieyu Lu Yingfeng went to Yaohua Pavilion.

Concubine Sun Miaoqing likes the green bamboo forest in Yuruntang courtyard, so she chose to live there; Concubine An Ningrong likes the quietness of Fanying Pavilion, so she lives there; Concubine Zhenhuan likes the lotus pond in front of Yifu Pavilion, so she lives there Concubine Du Peiyun chose Lvyixuan, which is the closest to Shuilu Nanxun Hall, and her thoughts are self-evident.

Of course, the princes lived in the side hall of the Shuilv Nanxun Hall, and the imperial concubines were all by their mother's side, while Concubine Ning, Concubine Gan Jiahui, Concubine Zhizhi and Concubine Ming, Concubine Miao Liyan, and Concubine Yadi all stayed in Guangfeng Jiyue Hall. , together with He Le Diji, under the care of Zhu Yixiu.

In late May, the second prince Yutian's birthday was approaching June, and the weather was a bit hot, so the banquet was held in Fuli Hall.The Fuli Hall was built very early. It was originally a small garden where the Empress Dowager Zhaokang of the previous dynasty lived in the Taiping Palace in her later years.Because it is not far from the lake, you can still clearly hear the sound of silk and bamboo orchestra coming from the water pavilion of Fanyue Lake. The sound is clear and distant without the noisy sound.

There is a golden dragon banquet table in the middle, facing north and south, and the emperor and empress sit side by side.Zhu Yixiu was dressed in red palace attire, the golden silk phoenix hairpin on his head was the most dazzling, and his ear was wearing gold flower-shaped earrings inlaid with rubies, which made his complexion very fair and tender. Ling looked at each other, and the affection in his eyes all reflected the deep love between the emperor and the empress.

From north to south on the ground level, the east and west are relatively close to the banquet tables of relatives, wives and concubines.Palace rules are strict, relatives and noble men are not allowed to meet and gather with concubines for non-major festival banquets.Today's second prince's birthday is a family banquet, so naturally it is not formal.

Below the left hand of the empress are the seats for relatives, nobles and female relatives.There are four red sandalwood tables in a row, namely Qishan Wang Xuanxun, Runan Wang Xuanji, Qinghe Wang Xuanqing and Pingyang Wang Xuanfen.

The princess next to Qishan Wang Xuanxun was extremely beautiful and looked very young. Xuanling had never met this Qishan princess, and presumably she was newly married earlier this month.

The concubine He Shi of Xuanji, the king of Runan, gave birth to a son and a daughter for Xuanji.Concubine Qingchengzong has a beautiful face in Wanyi, she is 12 years old now, and she will choose her husband's family in two or three years.The He family was weak, and after giving birth to Zongji, she took care of her in every possible way. Five years later, she gave birth to her eldest son, Yu Bo, but her body was injured, and it was impossible for her to have any more children. Ji's only son, who is seven years old this year, has a good relationship with the eldest prince Yu Ze, and the He family also has a good relationship with the empress Zhu Yixiu.Xuan Ling secretly hoped that this Xuan Ji would not commit a serious crime. Isn't he satisfied with his gentle wife and children under Cheng Huan's knees?

Prince Xuanqing of Qinghe and his concubine Ye Yazhen were deeply in love with each other. They talked from time to time, but the eldest son Yu Che was only two years old and did not attend.The side concubine Ye Fangchun who was seated next to her was five months pregnant, her face was rosy, she was smiling, and she seemed to be doing well.Sitting with Ye's side concubine was the side concubine You Jingxian, but her complexion was not very good.

Prince Xuanfen of Pingyang just got married this month, and he has a good relationship with Princess Shenmeizhuang. I heard that the princess often persuades Xuanfen to work hard, so Zhuanghe Taifei and Shunchen Taifei both like this daughter-in-law with a good family background. As a filial son, Xuanfen Very obedient, after talking with the princess, he has been doing well in the household department recently.

Jing Zhaoyi and Li Xinyu are sitting in the first seat on the right. Today's banquet is to celebrate the second prince Yutian's eighth birthday, so she is the real protagonist today. Even Mrs. Duan Qi Yuebin, who is far above them, can only be subservient. second seat.

Cui Shuyi, Tang Jingyan and Qi Yuebin shared the second seat.Concubine Feng Ruozhao and concubine Cao Qinmo took the third seat, concubine Li Jieyu Fei Yunyan and concubine Xin Jieyu Lu Yingfeng took the fourth seat, concubine Sun Miaoqing and concubine An Ningrong took the fifth seat, and concubine Rou With Concubine Yun, the two didn't have much to deal with, so they didn't talk much.
