Whenever this is mentioned, Fu Heng's heart is always heavy.

He turned around, "Fu Jin, Kang'er is still young, why do you have to decide his life's major affairs right now?"

"Still young?" Lan Pei shook his head and smiled wryly, "The seventh princess got married in two months; the fourth princess was only four years old when she betrothed to our family's Long'er. Now Kang'er is six years old, and the emperor hasn't given her marriage yet. Refers to the meaning of marriage, how can you make me feel at ease?"

Fu Heng took a deep breath, "I understand your wish to make the concubine's concubine marry Kang'er... But when the Seventh Princess proposed marriage, it was a special moment for the imperial court to use troops, and the emperor had no choice. Since he has already missed Let's stop grabbing melons, shall we?"

Jiufu Jin narrowed his eyes and stared at Fu Heng, "The seventh princess has been missed, and I know it naturally. But God did not treat us Kang'er badly, so that the noble concubine gave birth to the ninth princess again! She is both a princess and a preface. Nine, isn't this the right way to fulfill our wish?"

Fu Heng frowned, "Why don't I hope that Kang'er can marry the princess born by Concubine Ling? But, Fujin, I always feel that this matter is Kang'er's lifelong event after all. Maybe we should wait a little longer, Look at it more, and look at the child's own mind."

Lan Pei couldn't help staring, "Look at the child's own mind? What's wrong with Master Jiu? Kang'er is only six years old this year. What important things in life can he understand?"

"Besides, throughout the ages, the marriages of the children of any aristocratic family, whether appointed by the emperor, or ordered by their parents, how can they be allowed to choose by themselves? Children are children after all, and even if they are asked to choose by themselves, I am afraid they can only see it for a while. I have a beautiful family like a flower, but I don’t understand how to be with you for a lifetime.”
.
Fu Heng frowned slightly.

"What Fujin said is right, it's just..."

However, Fu Heng will never forget that he had to watch the person he liked walk into the palace gate, and never came out again; and his marriage was completely decided by his sister who is the mother of the country. Born noble, but not the Fujin he loves.

Although they have been together for so many years, Lan Pei can be regarded as a beautiful family member, and he has sincerely accompanied him to spend this fleeting time... But, just like the moment when the door opened, or like the moment when discussing the marriage of his children, he But I still feel that we are so far apart from her; what we say to each other sounds so strange.

He squinted at the candlelight, not to mention why, he couldn't erase the tears on his face that his little son stood alone in the starlight and water shadow under the lights by the river in the garden that year... …

In the past, he hated fate for making things difficult for him. When he hugged his son at that moment, he secretly swore in his heart: never use the same embarrassment to force his son.

In this world, after all, there are four words "a soft spot".No matter how big the world is, there is nothing but that one person; even if another person has a similar face and the same bloodline as that person...but he is not that person after all.

Fu Heng sighed softly, and cautiously clenched his fingertips in his cuffs.

He understood that even if such words were spoken, Lampe would not agree - after all, Kang'er was still young at this time; Kang'er was even younger when she stood crying in the lights by the river.If he used the words "a special liking" to describe Kang Er, Lanpei would only say that he was prevarication.

In fact, Fu Heng himself was a little unsure, whether the tears he saw in the lights by the river that night, the child he saw with "a soft spot" was the young and ignorant Kang Er, or he was watching himself...

Fu Heng then shook his head, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he focused on Lan Pei, "It's just that I think that since our family already has Ling'er as Duo Luo's consort and Long'er as He Shuo's concubine, they are already two brothers with the royal family." The second marriage. Why do you still have to hope that Kang'er can become the forehead again?"
.
Lan Pei raised her eyes to stare at Fu Heng, feeling her heart sinking a little bit.

"Master Jiu is right. We already have two concubines in our family. Kang'er is nothing. After all, he is our eldest son. Even if he becomes a princess, he is perfectly normal." Uncle Dear'; but Ling'er, it's really an honor to be the first-class bodyguard for Duo Luo's son-in-law."

"Ling'er and Long'er are both the sons of Master Jiu, and Master Jiu is satisfied with having two sons-in-law. Unfortunately, for this concubine, Ling'er is Ling'er, and Kang'er is Kang'er; I can't do it because Ling'er strives for success, so he doesn't care about Kang'er's future!"

In August, the emperor made great achievements in pacifying Junggar in Daqing, Rehe. The emperor promoted Fu Ling'an as the first-class bodyguard for "before he was old enough to be able to fight bravely and work hard."

In the 21st year of Qianlong's reign, Fu Ling'an went to the Northwest Military Camp as a third-class bodyguard.It has only been three years since then, and the "triple jump" has continued, from the third-class guard to the first-class guard, an average of one level a year!
What's more, until today, he is only a teenager...

In addition, because Fu Ling'an has been in the Northwest Military Camp for the past three years, he has always followed his cousin, "Cheng En Yi Yong Gong" Ming Rui, the eldest son of the Fu family.The two cousins ​​were born and died together, and forged a deep friendship.With Mingrui as the head of the Fu family, Fu Ling'an was in the family at this time, and Mingrui supported everything.

Even though she is a common son, even though Rue Xiang's background is humble, at this moment, the whole Fu family respects the mother and son very much.Fu Ling'an was already vaguely comparable to Fu Long'an; and Rue Xiang's reputation was not inferior to that of Lan Pei, the wife of Fujin.

There is such a concubine in the family, and a aunt named Lan Pei, a concubine Fujin, is like a thorn in the throat, how embarrassing.

Whenever there was a rift with Fu Heng, Fu Ling'an's matter would crawl out of the gap like a thin poisonous snake, bit by bit biting into her heart, making her unable to bear to say such words in her heart. In front of Fu Heng, he blurted out over and over again to be happy.

Now that Rue Xiang has another child, and she is about to give birth, the faint pain in Lan Pei's heart is even worse.

Lan Pei took a deep breath and looked up at Fu Heng, "Master Jiu, Kang'er is our son. But even though he is the son, he is the second son. He cannot inherit our family's position, nor can he share much of the family property." ... He, after all, has to work hard on his own."

Fu Heng frowned, "Although Kang'er can't inherit the position and family wealth, but because he is our son, the emperor will reward him with a bodyguard background in the future."

"Born as a bodyguard?" Lan Pei smiled, "He was born as a bodyguard, because he is not an eunuch and has no worldly position, so he can only start as a bodyguard of Lanling; but not as good as Ling'er, because of the life of Duo Luo's eunuch Ling'er can be appointed as a third-class guard!"

"It's just like Jiu Ye was Empress Xiaoxian's favorite younger brother back then, because he was not the eldest son, so he could only be named as the lowest guard of Lan Ling; while the fourth brother Fu Wen was the Dazong, he was the inheritor. Grace!"

In the Qing family, the origin of the children is closely related to whether your family has a world title or a title.If there is a world title or a world title, the child's birth title will also be granted on the basis of the world title and title; but Fukang An is not a heir or an elder, and there is no world title to inherit, so he can only inherit from the lowest Lan Ling. Guard background.

Lan Pei smiled sadly, "Besides, the guards are only from birth. Whether they can have a good future depends on the military camp for meritorious service. For example, how many imperial guards have been sent by the emperor to serve in the military camp in the past few years when he used troops in the Northwest? ?”

"Kang'er was born as a guard of Lan Ling. If he wants to have a future in the future, he has to go to the front line and go to the barracks to fight for his life!"

Lan Pei raised his eyes to look at Fu Heng, "Why, could it be that Lord Jiu has already thought about it, when Kang'er is 13 years old, Master Jiu will also send Kang'er to the military camp and tell him to go to the front of the two armies to fight for his life No way?!"

Fu Heng couldn't help frowning, "Ling'er can go, and he has already made meritorious service at a young age; why can't Kang'er go?"

"I'm a man from Manchuria, and I'm proud of wearing armor and doing meritorious deeds. Could it be that you want Kang'er to be a worthless coward at home?!"

Lampe stopped in one breath and staggered back.

"Sure enough, sure enough... No wonder Master Jiu was not enthusiastic about my plan for Kang'er; Master Jiu was not even willing to go to the emperor to ask for a marriage for Kang'er - given that Master Jiu is currently in the court Prestige, if Master Jiu is willing to ask, how can the emperor refuse?! But Master Jiu is satisfied with Linger; Master Jiu does not need three sons, all of them have become foreheads!"

Fu Heng raised his eyebrows suddenly.

"Fu Jin, you are enough! If my son Fu Heng asks for his birth, or studies hard in the poor window, he will be born in the imperial examination; if not, then he will make meritorious deeds on the battlefield and earn merits for himself. If there is no one, he must be Princess Shang. The son-in-law seeks fame and fortune!"

"If someone is afraid of death, he is not my son, Fu Heng; he is not worthy of being a Manchu warrior!"
.
Fu Heng walked away, and Lan Pei fell to the ground crying.

The study room is cold and silent, and the shelves are full of books, which can't bring any warmth.

The door rang.

Lan Pei thought it was seal incense, so he shouted, "Get out!"

At this moment, she didn't want her desperate appearance to be seen by any of Yunxiang and Zhuanxiang.

"Er Niang..." It was a child's voice.

Lampei's heart trembled, he hurriedly wiped away his tears, and turned his head to look.

At the door is Fuling holding Fukan'an's hand.

——Although Fu Kang'an has already entered school in the palace, he only goes there during the day, and still has to go back to his home at night.It is no longer possible to stay casually in the inner court as before.

Lan Pei hurriedly took a big breath, trying to calm himself down.

Fu Ling stepped forward to help Lan Pei up, and softly persuaded, "Er Niang, it's cold at night, the coldest on the ground. My aunt asked me to come in to serve Er Niang, and my aunt said to boil water for Er Niang and tell Er Niang to wash her face. "

Lampei's heart trembled, and he stretched out his hand to caress Fuling's cheek.

She understood that it was Zhuanxiang who knew how to measure, so Zhuanxiang didn't come in by herself, but asked Fuling to come in to serve her.

"How did you bring your brother here?"

Fu Ling's eyes were black and white, "Because my daughter knows that when Er Niang is sad, she has no ability to make Er Niang smile again; only our third brother has this ability."

When Lan Pei was told by that child, Fu Ling, he wanted to cry, but couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Fukang'an bit his lips and walked over, but he didn't care to make his mother laugh. Instead, he looked into her mother's eyes in confusion, "Emiang, what did you and Ama keep talking about your son just now?"
.
Lampei frowned immediately, wondering how much his son had heard.

Fuling was sensible, and said softly, "Zhaodi just came, and she hasn't stood outside the door for a while yet."

Only then did Lampe feel relieved, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his face, "It's nothing, I just told you about your homework. After all, it's in the study, and the princes and grandchildren will be punished if they are a little bit lazy. You are not allowed to be naughty."

Fukang'an bit her lips, "What is Er Niang worried about? I study better than Yong Xing and Yong Xing!"

The ages of Fukang'an and Lawang are similar to Yongxun and Yongxue.Therefore, studying in the upper study room, Fukang'an and Lawang are in the same group as Yongxie, Yongxuan, and several other clan children of similar age.

After all, Fu Kang'an grew up in the palace, and he studied in the same place every day, so when he mentioned Yongxun and Yongxue, he also called them by their first names.

Especially Yongxing, because Yongxing and Wanxi are good friends, they used to come and go frequently in Yongshou Palace; afterward, they were raised in Concubine Shu's Palace, so the relationship with Fu Kang'an is naturally the same as siblings, not so much Follow the rules.

Lan Pei was frightened, and quickly reached out to cover Fukang'an's hand, "Who told you to say that? Did you show off like this before when you were in the study?"

Fukang'an raised his eyebrows, "How can you 'show off'? My son's homework and archery are better than both of them. So many masters, masters, and classmates are watching!"

Lan Pei couldn't care less about arguing with Master Jiu at this moment, his knees softened, and he fell to his knees, hugging Fu Kang'an tightly.

"Oh, my little ancestor... I beg you, Erniang, you must never do this again in the future. Even if you compete in memorization and archery, you are not allowed to beat the princes and grandchildren again."

"They are the masters, and we are all slaves. How dare the slaves go to the top in front of the master, ah?!"

Fukang'an was a little unconvinced, "What about the master? Yong Xing himself admits that he is better than me in Sinology, calligraphy and painting, archery and Manchu, he can't compare with me!"

Lan Pei panted carefully, "Yong Xing doesn't matter... Er Niang said it was the twelfth elder brother. You must not compete in front of the twelfth elder brother. Remember your mother's words, never allow forget!"
.
On December [-]th, the noble concubine was ordered to wait for the position, and the canonization ceremony was performed.

Early in the morning, Honglu Temple set up a festival table in the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, with a book table on the left and a Baoyin table on the right.

The internal supervisors set up festivals in Yongshou Palace, Jingren Palace, and Yanxi Palace.In the main hall of the Sangong, there are incense tables in the middle of the throne in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and there are book treasure seal tables on the left and right.In front of the gate of the palace, there are separate battles for noble concubines, concubines and concubines.

Luan Yiwei set up a mining pavilion outside the cabinet door.

The official of the Ministry of Rites of the Cabinet presents the festival, book, and seal, and reads out the seal of the book, Chen Yuting.

School Luanyi marches in the forefront with an umbrella battle.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites lead to the pavilion under the steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and the treasure seal of the festival book is promoted to the hall and presented on the case.

The scholar stands outside the hall alone, the chief and deputy envoys stand in the east of Danchi, and the Xian court clothes to the west.

When the auspicious time came, the officials of Honglu Temple led the principal and deputy envoys to ascend from the east to the left and north of Jiedanchi.University scholars enter the left door of the hall, and Fengjie exits through the middle door.

The principal and deputy envoys kneel, the university scholars are awarded the principal envoy by the festival, and the principal envoy and the deputy envoy stand in the west following the ceremony.The officials of the Ministry of Rites entered the hall, and all the cases were published with a book of treasures and seals.The envoy will go ahead with the festival, and the deputy envoy will follow the case.Later, it descends from the middle step and is still in the East Chencai Pavilion.

The canonized chief and deputy envoys went out from the middle gate of the Taihe Gate to the outside of the Jingyun Gate to confer with the inner prison.The Internal Superintendent is in charge of the entry into the Caiting Pavilion, the case of Chen Jie in the middle, the case of Chen Ji Baoyin and the case of Wen Yudong.

This series of rituals are all respectful and solemn.Although it is festive, it also makes people feel solemn instead of secretly happy.

In Yongshou Palace, Wanxi had already put on the noble concubine's auspicious clothes, and waited on the right side of the palace gate to follow in.

next step,

The officials under the leadership of the internal supervisor, Fujin, acted as leading female officials—Wanxi’s mother, Yang Shi, used to be such a leading female official before, and was rewarded by Lord Yongzheng—the internal supervisor had already placed the worship mat on the worship seat , leading the female officer to lead Wanxi to kneel down to the front of the mat, and help Wanxi to face north.

The booklet said: "In order to transform Ernan, praise must be based on Shude. Officials are divided into nine royals, and praises and honors are advanced to the ranks of husbands. Yuanpei Lunyin, style and image clothing. Erling concubine Wei, plain Xiannv Commandment, early service to Yeting, diligent and cautious, gentle and beautiful. Adhering to the Holy Mother, serving as an internal post without violation; respecting the middle palace, and entrusting Huiyin with integrity. The rank of imperial concubine in the former Jin Dynasty has surpassed ten Year. Today, it is called Qingyu Gongwei, celebrating Wanshou, and according to the empress dowager's benevolence, canonize you as a noble concubine. Shangqi Ke inherited Rongxi, and the light of Zhai ladle will flow forever. Ya."

This volume is eloquent and eloquent, and the author is the editor - Ji Yun Ji Xiaolan, a great talent in the dynasty.

The imperial concubine's gold album, ten pages, each page uses [-]% gold, and ten has fifty taels.The book text is engraved on the gold book.In addition to the volume, there is also a volume with a key plate carved in ivory.After the female officer read the document, she put the gold book into the case, then knelt down and handed the case together with the desired key to Wanxi.

Wanxi lowered her eyes, and saw the phoenix staring at the ivory-carved key...it was exactly the same as the phoenix on the red curtain that the emperor gave her.

Wanxi couldn't help lowering her head, and the corners of her lips raised slightly unconsciously.

Wanxi only accepts it and gives it to Yu Rui beside her.Yurui, in her permanent position, is now regarded as a female official of Xili.Yurui knelt down to receive it, and together with Wanxi presented the booklet on the case.

Next, announce the precious seal of the imperial concubine, and the same is true for receiving the precious seal.

The imperial concubine Jinbao, squatting on the dragon button, is [-]% gold.The platform is four inches square, one inch and two cents thick, with jade chopsticks inscriptions.

Wanxi lowered her eyes and looked carefully.In the past, the treasure seal of the imperial concubine was turtle buttons and [-]% gold.The platform is three inches six centimeters square and one inch thick... Not only is the imperial concubine's seal larger and heavier than the imperial concubine's seal, but it is also of better color; The position in the harem has become more and more noble from concubine to wife.

At the end of Wanxi's six sues, three kneelings and three kowtows, the maid of honor led Wanxi back to her original position and stood up.Wanxi sent her to the gate of the palace to welcome her as before.

The internal supervisor came out of Jingyunmen and awarded the envoy Fu Heng with festivals.

After Fu Heng and Liu Tongxun salute, Zuomen returns.

In Yongshou Palace, the princes and grandsons all came to salute; the palace supervisor Gao Yu and others led the inner eunuchs to salute, and the eunuch Liu Zhuer, the chief of the palace, and other entourages saluted.

Wanxi and Fu Heng experienced this glorious ceremony together.Fu Heng is also a canonized envoy... But after all, they are different inside and outside, Fu Heng can only spend time with Wan Xi outside the Jingyun Gate, separated by the heavy golden tiles and red walls.

Fu Heng looked back at the majestic red wall, although he stood with a smile on his face, but after all, the corners of his eyes were gloomy.
.
The next day, Wanxi and the other four went to the Empress Dowager's Palace to salute and thank her.

The empress dowager ascended to the seat in the main hall, and received the great gift of Liu Su kneeling three times and prostrating three times.

Standing up after the ceremony, the empress dowagers rewarded each other with silver taels and table gifts, but they also stared at Wanxi and couldn't stop chuckling.

"The edict was issued on November 21st, and the canonization ceremony was held on December [-]th. It took less than a month before and after. This efficiency is really rare in the history of the harem's canonization."

"The canonization of the harem, and you have concubines and imperial concubines. Just weaving crowns and clothes, making gold books and gold seals, not to mention spending gold, originally it took half a year to prepare for it to be completed-but this time The emperor is so anxious that he refuses to wait for a month."

The empress dowager narrowed her eyes and stared at Wanxi.

"Concubine Ling, why do you think the emperor is in such a hurry? He is the emperor. The emperor's decree has been issued. Who dares to disobey it? Does he still worry that his decree will be overturned? People, can you recover your position again?"

Wanxi hangs her head lightly.

Although her heart was also agitated by the empress dowager's words, but—what should I do, the empress dowager's words made her feel the most upset, but it was sweet.

Yes, what is the emperor afraid of in such a hurry?Hastily performed the canonization ceremony, and given all of this, is it possible that he is really afraid of being overthrown by someone?

It took less than a month from the edict to the canonization ceremony, and the emperor is really impatient and can't hide it.

The sweetness in his heart surged up unconsciously, overflowing from the corner of his lips.

Wanxi bowed her knees and said, "Back to the empress dowager, the emperor is like this, he must hope that the matter of conferring the harem will be completed earlier this year when the great success in the Northwest is completed, so that the empress dowager can feel at ease, and the ancestors can rest assured."
.
The empress dowager raised her jaw involuntarily.

The girl surnamed Han in front of me, after hearing her beating this time, she didn't show worry like before, but smiled instead?
The 14-year-old girl back then has finally grown up. After 20 years, dare to smile in front of her? !

Who gave her the guts? !
Yuqin herself was also panicked, but fortunately Concubine Ying was not afraid, so after seeing the empress dowager's expression, she coughed softly behind Wanxi's back to remind Wanxi.

Wanxi also raised her head slowly, meeting the eyes of the Empress Dowager.

The empress dowager couldn't help but sneered, "Anxin? Concubine Ling, do you feel that the emperor is so anxious, can I be at ease? Can the ancestors be at ease?"

Wanxi's wonderful eyes turned lightly, "I believe that the empress dowager and the ancestors should be at ease. I think that now the emperor's achievements have been accomplished, and the Qing Dynasty is unified. No matter the northern part or the southern part of the country, no matter whether the Manchus or the Han people, we all wear the Holy King together; The map of the Qing Dynasty has never been so vast, and the people in the north and south have never lived and worked in peace and contentment."

"The country is stable and the people are happy. Isn't this what the Empress Dowager and the ancestors want to see the most?"

Wanxi chuckled softly, neither humble nor overbearing.

"The concubine believes that the empress dowager and the ancestors, how can they only focus on such a small matter as the confinement of the harem? Compared with the unification of the country and the unity of the country, what is the matter of the harem? "

"The conferment of the harem is only for the joy of the country, and for the joy of the emperor and the empress dowager's birthday. It is because of the great joy, and the concubine's small things are added to the fun. The empress dowager said, is the concubine right?"

The empress dowager's lips were tightly pursed, but she was unable to speak.

Wanxi bowed her head with a smile, but got up and walked to the Empress Dowager.

"Does the empress dowager want to smoke? I am serving the empress dowager."
