Chapter 71: Concubine Xuan Borzigit

Kangxi stayed in Chengqian Palace for three consecutive days, and he always liked to play tricks on Wen Xi, playing with Wen Xi's chubby feet, lovingly saying: "Han people have three-inch golden lotuses, your natural feet are so exquisite and small!"

As soon as she heard the three-inch golden lotus, Wen Xi couldn't help showing a bit of disgust, her delicate mouth only said in a triumphant tone: "It's good to be born, no matter how good you get it the day after tomorrow, it can't compare to Tianzu! The concubine heard that the three-inch golden lotus of the Han people broke their feet and folded them! Others only saw them wearing small shoes, and the way they walked slowly felt beautiful. If the three-inch golden lotus beauties would take off their shoes Socks, showing distorted and deformed feet, I’m afraid it will scare people away!” Wenxi’s feet are only 23cm (measured in the space), and they will be size 36 in later generations. They are soft and fair, naturally cute .But the three-inch golden lotus is only ten centimeters, and it is natural to wear small shoes. Wen Xi once saw the feet of a three-inch golden lotus old lady when she was young.At that time, I also thought it was cute and interesting, but seeing the old lady take off her shoes and take off her foot wrap, revealing a pair of blackened and distorted disabled feet like tree roots, Wen Xi was so scared that she had nightmares all night!

Kangxi didn't hear Wen Xi's dislike for bound feet, but thought she was a little girl's petty temper, and Kangxi, who claimed to be magnanimous and benevolent, didn't care about a little girl.Squeezing Wen Xi's swollen instep, jokingly said: "It's white and red, it's fleshier than a child's feet. It's so cute!"

Wen Xi withdrew her feet in displeasure, and tucked her feet into the cloud brocade quilt that was full of blessings. Her body was originally white, tender and fleshy, and she looked round and cute, but now she has gained a lot of weight, as if she was swollen !Wen Xi never thought fat was cute! —except for children.

Kangxi laughed, took Wenxi into his arms, smelled the refreshing and unique smell of the little girl's black hair, and said tolerantly and intoxicated: "I'm still so petty! I'm just curious. This dynasty is full of people and people. Intermarriage. Besides, in order to avoid troubles caused by concubines and cholera, the imperial mama made a rule that Han women with small feet are not allowed to enter the palace!"

Cut——, Wen Xi wished she could roll her eyes.It was alright when Xiaozhuang was around, but when Xiaozhuang died, didn't you still get a three-inch golden lotus beauty into the palace?Isn't the Wang family, the most beloved secret concubine in the middle and late Kangxi period, Han Chinese?There are also Qin concubines Chen and Xiang concubines Gao, all of whom are Han Chinese.They also gave birth to many princes for Kangxi.The secret concubine gave birth to the fifteenth elder brother Yinxi, the sixteenth elder brother Yinlu, the eighteenth elder brother Yinyi, the Qin concubine gave birth to the seventeenth elder brother Yinli, the Xiang concubine gave birth to the nineteenth elder brother Yinti, the twenty-first elder brother Yinyi, etc. and so on, so that almost all the sons of Kangxi's later period were born to Han people. (Han people are different from the Han army flag. The concubine Dong is the Han army flag.)

Kangxi kneaded the back of Wen Xi's hand and exhaled, "Do you still feel itchy?"

Wen Xi bowed her head and hummed.The feet under the blanket were too itchy to rub, "Qing Lan said, itching is a good thing, and itching will get better gradually."

"Yiwan her???" Kangxi sighed deeply, "It's her fault, it's just??? Queen Mother liked Yiwan very much when she was alive."

Although Wen Xi had expected that Concubine Tong had an unbeatable trump card.But he was still very depressed in his heart, and said obediently on his face: "The emperor is filial. The concubine understands."

Kangxi showed some satisfaction, "Yiwan used to be considered gentle and virtuous, but I didn't know that she became more and more jealous! I have told her to shut up and think about her mistakes, and she is not allowed to get involved in the palace power, so you can rest assured."

With this No. [-] enemy, Wen Xi couldn't feel at ease, but on the surface she still nodded in agreement, without showing any dissatisfaction.The emperor is a scumbag, no wonder!

There was a little guilt in Kangxi Danfeng's eyes, and he stroked Wen Xi's soft and smooth hair and said: "Zhen, I will make it up to you."

The next day, I went to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to pay respects to the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. She was as kind and kind as the old lady next door, and she specially left Wen Xi and Concubine Xuan to accompany the two old ladies to talk.But fortunately, Wen Xi basically talked with Xiao Zhuang, and Concubine Xuan accompanied the Queen Mother to speak "foreign languages".

Fortunately, Xiaozhuang is proficient in three languages, Manchurian, Mongolian and Chinese, and there is no barrier to communication. Wenxi is also obediently like his own little granddaughter, sitting sideways on the embroidered pier of red sandalwood carved with double phoenixes and peonies under Xiaozhuang, with a pretty face A serene smile appeared on his face.

Xiao Zhuang is wearing an ordinary purple flag dress with Fushan Shouhai pattern today, he is restrained, kind-hearted and extremely gentle: "The Ai family has liked you for a long time, just like our Mongolian princess, straightforward and bright!"

"It's just that the Empress Dowager doesn't dislike the stupidity of the courtiers and concubines!" Wen Xi's words carried a hint of coquettishness, since Xiao Zhuang wants to act, she can act with the old lady!What Xiaozhuang wanted was the balance of the harem, and Concubine Tong was too arrogant, Xiaozhuang naturally turned his head and treated her extremely kindly.

Suddenly, Xiaozhuang sighed deeply, and said sadly with his eyes: "That child Yiwan was very sensible before, but I didn't expect to do such a thing this time - after all, it was the Ai family who made you feel wronged!"

Wen Xi hurriedly stood up, flattered and squatted down to salute authentically: "The empress dowager is serious, and the concubine has not suffered any grievances!"

Xiaozhuang smiled with satisfaction, and gave Wen Xi a hand, "Niu Hulu's princesses are all well-behaved, but you are more sensible than your sister Xiaozhao!" He also comforted him helplessly, "Tong Jia's family After all, it is the emperor's mother's family, so don't blame the emperor for covering up the matter." Concubine Tong was stripped of her palace power only because she mishandled the affairs of the sixth palace, and she thought about her mistakes behind closed doors. That's all.

Wen Xi nodded, and said obediently: "The concubine understands that the emperor cares about old feelings the most!" Then she said with some resentment, "The concubine didn't offend Concubine Tong, why does she always target the concubine?!"

There was a smile in Xiaozhuang's eyes, and he was not displeased by Wen Xi's dissatisfaction with Concubine Tong, on the contrary, he was happy to see this - the harem needs balance, a straight-forward woman is better than a woman who loves to play tricks and tricks Xiao Zhuang was relieved, so he patted the back of Wen Xi's hand to comfort him: "This matter is Yi Wan's fault, you just don't have the same knowledge as her."

Wen Xi nodded reluctantly.From the corner of his eye, he saw that Xiao Zhuang didn't show the slightest dissatisfaction with Wen Xi's perfunctory attitude, but instead smiled and said: "Ai Jia always wants to make up for you, but you never lack ordinary gold, jade and jewelry, how about ——The Ai family will give your mother to come to the palace to visit you."

Wen Xi's eyelashes trembled suddenly, and her heart beat faster, Er Niang—I don't know if she is doing well?Is the old problem in her leg healed?Did those aunts and concubines bully her?After being in a trance for a while, I finally thought of thanking you. I hurriedly bowed and spoke with a trembling voice, and the excitement in my heart was beyond words: "Thank you, Empress Dowager! The concubine is very grateful!!"

Xiao Zhuang didn't mind that Wen Xi's color paled because of being moved, and he was a little rude.He also called the concubine Borjigit? Namu came over and stood beside her with Wen Xi.In terms of seniority, Namu is Xiaozhuang's grandniece and Kangxi's cousin.But from the perspective of the queen mother, Namu is the queen mother's cousin, Kangxi's aunt!Who called Xiaozhuang's daughter-in-law her grandniece? !

Borzigit Namu really doesn't look like those bright and lively Mongolian girls, but looks a little slender and soft.Maybe it's because her biological mother was a Han Chinese concubine.Looking at Concubine Xuan, Xiao Zhuang couldn't help feeling disappointed, and said: "Namu, if you have nothing to do on weekdays and go to Chengqian Palace where the noble concubine lives, don't you like the rhythm? Although the noble concubine is from Manchuria. But you are also proficient in poems and songs, you have to learn from the imperial concubine carefully!"

Concubine Xuan hurriedly blessed her body.Said: "Yes." Then he bowed his head and said nothing.

Wen Xi glanced at Concubine Xuan, her complexion was only above average, but her features were gentle and pleasant, Xiao Zhuang must have chosen her to enter the palace because of her gentleness and beauty.The empress Xiaozhuang once selected for Shunzhi was bright and pungent, which led to the abolition of the empress. Xiaozhuang must have learned a lesson before choosing her.Most emperors would not like strong women.It's just that Xiaozhuang didn't expect that he would choose a lump of wood, and he couldn't even speak on weekdays.Can't please the emperor at all!

Xiaozhuang didn't know how many times he had taught and advised Concubine Xuan, but she was still nesting in her palace like an ostrich!Xiaozhuang even lowered his face several times to let Kangxi go to Jingyang Palace, but every time Kangxi left Jingyang Palace angrily.Xiaozhuang knew that the reason was Namu himself.Xiao Zhuang knew that Concubine Xuan was out of ten this time, and he was acting in the opposite direction, so he said: "It is better to hit the sun than to choose the day. Today, you and the noble concubine go to her palace to study the rhythm together!"

Concubine Xuan's Namu trembled slightly, bit her lips with her white teeth, lowered her head and said, "Yes."

When they walked out of the Palace of Compassion and Peace, Wen Xi and Concubine Xuan naturally came out together, Wen Xi looked at Concubine Xuan who was quietly like a piece of wood beside her, and said politely: "Sister Xuan doesn't seem to be willing? "

Xuan Pin smiled bitterly: "My life has never been controlled by my own wishes."

Wen Xi was slightly taken aback??? She is a person with a story, but there are so many princesses in the Borzigit family, and some of them are willing. Why does the Empress Dowager find this unwilling person?It's just that the inside story is not something that she, an outsider, can ask in depth, so she turned around and said: "I heard that Concubine Xuan is proficient in rhythm."

Concubine Xuan said frankly: "My biological mother is a Han singer, although she learned the pipa when she was young." She herself didn't mind her background at all, as if she was stating something that had nothing to do with her.

"It's just that since entering the palace, I haven't touched it anymore??" Concubine Xuan slightly sighed.

"Oh? Why is that?" Wen Xi asked smoothly.

Concubine Xuan said with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth: "In the past, I used to play the pipa with my mother in wearing a pair of skirts with wide sleeves and long jackets." But Manchu's flag dress, like a straight tube, can highlight a tall and graceful figure, but It is not as full of charm as Hanfu.

Double-breasted and wide-sleeved jacket skirt—that is the clothes of the Han people, and it is not allowed to be worn in the palace!In fact, Wenxi also prefers Hanfu, such as jacket skirts, undergarments, deep clothes, outerwear??? Hanfu is elegant and full of formality. Wenxi prefers Hanfu from the bottom of her heart, especially half-armed underskirts and pipa sleeve jackets skirt.In later generations, Wen Xi would definitely take Namu to study Hanfu together.

Wen Xi also asked Meier to make some beautiful Hanfu for her, but Hanfu is not allowed in Niu Hulu's mansion.Even maidservants have to wear flag outfits, but they have removed the flower pot bottom shoes.Those clothes can still only be placed in the space, and occasionally they will secretly wear them when they go in, just admiring themselves in the mirror!

Because the weather has been pretty good recently, I went on foot with concubine Xuan.Concubine Xuan couldn't be driven in a sedan chair, and Wen Xi was too embarrassed to ask her to follow behind, so it was time to walk and exercise.

"I think Concubine Xuan must look very beautiful in Hanfu." Wen Xi said, Concubine Xuan's demeanor is not suitable for a straight full dress, imagining that she is wearing a pair of breasted and wide-sleeved long jacket skirt with elegant sleeves and skirt. It must be beautiful to dance with the train and hold the pipa half-hidden.

A beautiful smile bloomed on Concubine Xuan's face, and said: "In this case, this is the first time I have heard of a concubine entering the palace."

That's right, the Manchurian Eight Banners' Gege even looks down on the Han army flag, let alone those pure Han people!Naturally, I don't like the costumes of the Han people. "The Man-Han family" is just talking, people in the feudal era were still divided into classes after all!Even though Kangxi promoted Sinology and treated the Han people favorably, it was just to learn the lessons from the demise of the Yuan Dynasty, in order to appease the Han people and maintain the dominant position!

"Really? Women like beautiful clothes. This is common sense." Manchus entered the customs and changed their clothes, but "men follow women but not", and women's Hanfu can continue to exist. It is common to wear skirts in the capital. The sleeves of women with skirts and jackets are fluttering.It's just that I really haven't seen that noble girl from the Eight Banners wearing Han clothes.

Concubine Xuan nodded, but there was no sign of approval in her eyes, she just said: "Concubine also learned Han embroidery, and often made some clothes for herself, but it's a pity that Hanfu is not allowed in the palace, so I can only put it under the box."

"Really? Can I take a look at this palace?" Wen Xi asked along the pole.

Concubine Xuan readily agreed, and they went to Jingyang Palace together.Jingyang Palace is located in the northwest of the Sixth West Palace, east of Zhongcui Palace, and north of Yonghe Palace. As the empress dowager's grandniece and the lord of the first palace, ordinary people would not dare to embarrass her easily.Jingyang Palace is 3 rooms wide and has a roof with yellow glazed tiles, which is different from the roof form of the other five palaces in the East Six Palaces.There are 5 animals placed in the corner of the eaves, a Dou Gong is placed under the eaves, and colored paintings of dragons and seals are painted.The door is open in the open room, and the glass window is in the second room.In the Ming Dynasty, there was a plaque inscribed with the title "Surou Chengxiu".The ceiling is a pattern of double cranes, the inner eaves are decorated with colorful paintings of Xuanzi, the indoor floor is made of square bricks, and the front of the hall is a platform.There is a lacquered gold couplet on the door couplet, "Songqi Pepper Flower Baizi Pond, the sun is warm; the cypress leaves are floating on the branches for thousands of years, and the spring is sunny", which seems to be the pen of a famous artist.Although the decoration of the main hall is not gorgeous, it is also in line with the status of a concubine. There is no shortage of everything that should be there. There is no incense in the hall, only narcissus is placed, which is very elegant.

Xuan concubine Borjigit? Namu is the daughter of Prince Horqin Darhan and Ta, the niece of Emperor Shunzhi's mourning concubine, and the cousin of Kangxi. She entered the palace only a little later than Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui. She was not canonized in the palace. Therefore, she has been a concubine for many years.

The post of concubine concubine is very much to be studied.The system of four concubines and six concubines was established by Kangxi. In the first dynasty of Shunzhi, there were imperial concubines, noble concubines, and many concubines under the empress. That's all.In the Kangxi Dynasty, there were also many concubines. Although there was no rank in name, they could be compared with concubines and even concubines. Sometimes concubines were more prominent but not old enough to be concubines. , It can also be unloved or humble.Although concubine Xuan has just been registered as a concubine, she has always enjoyed the honor and status of a concubine since she entered the palace, and even broke the rules and has always lived in the main hall of Jingyang Palace, just like the main seat.Concubine Concubine Borjigit and Concubine Zhang Jia are not treated in the same way, and Zhang Jia's only enjoys the promised quota.
