Nala shrugged and smiled, "What are you trying to say, Concubine Qing? Are you comparing yourself with Bengong? Concubine Qing, should Bengong punish you here for the crime of contempt for Zhonggong? Now, everyone in this palace who dares to compare with the middle palace is guilty of the following!"

Nala stared at Yuqin contemptuously, "There are quite a few Han women from Jiangnan in our palace, but you are just the bottom of them! You can't compare to her pure noble concubine, her great-grandfather was the leader of Han ministers, Lord Kangxi used to be the governor of Liangjiang; you are no match for his concubine Wan, at least she came from the Chen family in Haining, her family still has Chen Shiguan as an official in the cabinet."

"Although your Lu family has some reputation in the south of the Yangtze River, but no one in your family is an official in the court, it is just a family of commoners from the south of the Yangtze River! The emperor can pick you into the palace, and you have to take the way of weaving in the south of the Yangtze River. It can be seen that you have entered the palace. It's too shameful!"

"You have been in the palace for ten years, and it is your good fortune to survive to become a concubine. No one will compare yourself with this palace, it really makes people laugh!"

Yuqin took a deep breath and clenched her hands tightly.

Wanxi and Wanpin looked at each other and hurriedly got up.

"Returning to the mistress, the concubine thinks that the title 'Qing' is very good."

Nala sneered, "Okay? Of course it's good! The Empress Dowager is celebrating her 60th birthday, why not?"

Wanxi shook her head, "The emperor came to celebrate the concubine this year because he had a wish to celebrate the empress dowager's birthday; but I believe that the emperor's conferment this time is not just to celebrate the empress dowager's birthday."

"If you do something with joy in your heart, it's called celebration; if the Son of Heaven has good deeds, he calls it celebration. Those who are blessed are celebrated, happy events are celebrated, and good things are also celebrated. These are the most perfect things in the world."

"Besides, the original meaning of the word "Qing" means "bring a deerskin and sincerely congratulate people". Auspicious rituals use deerskin as a sincere gift, and deer is also connected with "Lu", which also coincides with the "Lu" surname of Concubine Qing... From this we can see The emperor chose the character Qing as the title of concubine Qing, not only did he not pick it up by hand, but the emperor chose it with his heart."

"What a sharp tongue!" Nala stared at Wanxi and couldn't help sneering, "Concubine Ling, is she showing off Chinese characters with this palace? This is the harem of the Qing Dynasty, and this palace is the master of the harem. They speak and write in Manchu …Concubine Ling said these things, do you really want to listen to me?"

Wanxi raised her head and met Nala's eyes.

"Your Majesty is right, but the emperor is not only the emperor of the Manchus, but also the emperor of the whole of China! If you say the word Qing, the first two characters of the Empress Dowager's emblem are 'Chongqing', and the second word is Qing. If you use As far as the title is concerned, the emperor can use this word "Celebration" to add to the concubine Qing, which shows the grand meaning!"
.
When it came to the empress dowager, Nala had no choice but to stop talking, only gritted his teeth and stared at Wanxi bitterly.

Unable to speak of Yuqin's title, Nala turned to look at Concubine Ying and smiled slightly.

"Speaking of the word 'Ying', there is also a story. I remember that the word 'Ying' was first selected by the Ministry of Rites for Concubine Wan. At that time, the three characters selected by the Ministry of Rites were: Wan, Xun, and Ying."

"The character Xun is fine, it's hard to recognize, and there's nothing particularly good about it. Among the remaining characters Wan and Ying, Concubine Wan chose the word 'Wan' and left 'Ying' as the rest. Concubine Ying entered the palace, and this word was given to Concubine Ying."

"Why did concubine Wan choose the word Wan instead of the word Ying? It is inconvenient for me to speculate, but this word makes me think of the name of the concubine Ling. Wanxi, isn't that the word Wan?" .”

"It can be seen from this that Concubine Wan is only thinking about Concubine Ling. Compared with Concubine Wan, your title of Concubine Ying is not rare, but it is not as close as Concubine Wan and Concubine Ling are."
