Chapter 2476 Eight Volumes 1 Dare to Say My Mother

(Volume Eight: Establishing a Wife)
On the fifth day of July in the 29th year of Qianlong, that is, the day after Concubine Yu's canonization ceremony, the emperor issued an edict: "This time, I am visiting Mulan, and I am going to stay in Beijing for business affairs with Prince Xie, Prince He, University scholar Liu Tongxun, and Shangshu Shuhede. .”

Starting from this day, this year's autumn event is officially on the agenda.

The emperor is scheduled to start Luang on July [-].

There is another important festival before July [-], which is the Hungry Ghost Festival on July [-].

The Ghost Festival, like Qingming, is a grand festival for worshiping ancestors, and it is also an important festival for Buddhists. Therefore, every year the emperor will send officials to sacrifice to Yongling, Fuling, Zhaoling, Zhaoxi, Xiaoling, Xiaodongling, Jingling, Tailing, Empress Xiaoxian and all the concubines slept in the garden, and the princes headed by Prince Duanhui Yong Lian went to the garden.

In front of such a major festival, it seems "small" to wear filial piety for the two concubines alone in Jing'an Village.

The emperor also took advantage of the situation and ordered Xiaoqi and Jiujiu to give up.

Only the eighth princess who was born by Dai Jia's family continued to follow the three-year filial piety for the biological mother.

Knowing that the two daughters were finally able to return from Jing'an Village before the fall, Wanxi was finally relieved to go, and only said that it was fortunate that there was such a big festival as the Ghost Festival.

Qing Zao, who came to the inner court to pay her respects, laughed when she heard this, "You might as well say that the birthdays of the two younger sisters coincided."

Xiaoqi happened to be born on July [-]th, and Jiujiu was born on July [-]th the day before.

"...Huang Ama is always reluctant to ask the two younger sisters to wear filial piety for their birthdays, isn't it?"

Because Yongxuan's birthday is also on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, and he has always spent it with Xiaoqi in the past, so Qingzao understands the mystery best.Even if Qing Zao came into the palace today to pay his respects, he also came to thank Wanxi for his care and care over the years for Yongxuan.

Wanxi was also relieved, recalling that there was something in the emperor's words that night, it turned out that the emperor's heart was hidden here.

Wanxi couldn't say this in front of Qingzao, a daughter-in-law, so she just smiled and said, "The eighth princess's birthday is in December, so it's a pity that I couldn't release it with Xiaoqi and Jiujiu." Take it. It's a pity, but her sister Liu Gongzhu's birthday is also in July, and it's the seventeenth birthday of Xiao Qi and Jiujiu."

Qing Zao smiled, "Who said it is? This is the so-called 'If you can't catch up with one step, you can't catch up with every step'."

Wanxi stared quietly at Qingzao.The more we get along these years, the more I like this child.

Wanxi then instructed, "This time the emperor, Qiuxi, will go away for a few months. You and Yongxuan stay in Beijing, and be careful in everything."

Last time someone deliberately made a fuss about Yongxuan and Cuihuan, and it was "fortunately" that Mao Tuan'er and Yuye were caught in the middle, so the emperor asked the emperor to intervene in person, but Yongxuan and Cuihuan The rumors didn't make much of a difference.

——After all, it is not a big deal for the prince to like an official woman, the difference between them is only the emperor's fingering marriage; it is not as good as a eunuch and an official woman.

If this matter broke out, Qing Zao could only be the one who hurt the most; the person who wanted to spread the matter again was just to make Yin Jishan feel sorry for his daughter, thus separating Yin Jishan and Yongxuan's son-in-law.

The purpose of this is also to cut off Yongxuan's greatest reliance.

So in this matter, the most important person is Qing Zao.As long as Qing Zao's heart is stable, then the whole thing will not be chaotic.

Wanxi naturally believes in Qingzao's character, but why doesn't Wanxi love Qingzao the most in her heart?
Qing Zao's eyes drooped, and he tried to smile, "Ling Erniang's instructions, my daughter-in-law understands. Ling Erniang, don't worry, my daughter-in-law's heart will not be confused by lard, and it won't mess up this matter. "

Wanxi was also relieved, and held Qing Zao's hand, "Although Mr. Yin Jishan is still far away in the south of the Yangtze River, the emperor has already conferred the post of Bachelor of Wenhua Palace, and he will be able to return to Beijing from Jiangnan in the near future. When the time comes If Lord Yin Jishan is with you and Yongxuan in the capital, that is Dinghaishenzhen, and those people with ulterior motives will not be able to make any fuss."

Qing Zao raised his eyes, and couldn't hide his joy, "What does Ling Erniang mean, is there really hope for me, Ama, to come back to Beijing from Jiangnan?"

Although Yin Jishan has been a great official in Xinjiang for 30 years, it is a pity that he has not been able to return to Beijing for 30 years.It would be Qing Zao's dream to be able to come back to Beijing for company.

Today, if Ling Erniang said that, based on the relationship between Ling Erniang and the emperor, then these words must be the emperor's mouth!

Wanxi just smiled and smiled, but refused to spit it out. She just said, "I guess too. After all, the University of Wenhua Palace is the University of Wenhua Palace. Among the University scholars, it is second only to the University of Baohe Palace, Zhongyong Gong Fu Heng and Fu Jiu have gone. I, after all, have never heard of such an important official position as a scholar of the Wenhua Palace, who can go far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and not discuss politics in Beijing."

Qing Zao also laughed, "After ordering Er Niang to call, my daughter-in-law is also enlightened!"

Wanxi nodded with a smile, "Look, you have your grandmother and your mother in your family, two generations of concubines with Han surnames, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who are conferred as first-class wives; then at this time you have your grandfather who was a scholar of Dongge University, and your father who was a concubine. Wenhuadian University Bachelor, this has created a good story that father and son are both University Bachelors."

"Qingzao, you are really envied that you come from such a mother's family."

Qing Zao's cheeks flushed from the praise.

"I am proud of my father and grandfather, but I don't know in my heart that my mother can get today's imperial order because I can become the Fujin of the eighth elder brother. If it is not for the marriage to the eighth elder brother Brother, with my concubine born from a concubine with the surname of Han, how can I earn the imperial order of a first-class lady for my biological mother?"

Wanxi nodded in relief, "Qingzao, among the princes who are already married, if all the princes Fujin are added together, you are the number one person in my heart."

"If my little Shiwu gets married in the future, I really hope that he will meet a virtuous and courteous Fujin like you in the future. Then I, in this life, I will just smile and rest in peace."

Qing Zao laughed, "Look at what you said, Ling Erniang, you are now our Erniang, but from the looks of it, who wouldn't say that you are like my sister? Besides, the fifteenth brother is not yet four years old. Birthday, it's still early."

"Besides, the fifteenth brother is such a blessed person. Based on Huang Ama's love for the fifteenth brother, he will definitely choose the best Fujin for the fifteenth brother in the future. In the future, the fifteenth brother and sister's Blessing is something I can't compare to."

Wanxi smiled and lowered her eyes.

What a transparent woman Qing Zao is, the meanings implied in Qing Zao's words, it is inconvenient for Wan Xi to continue at this time, so she just bowed her head and walked away.

After all, it was still early, at the age of Xiao Shiwu, brotherhood was actually the most important thing, even more important than the crown prince.Only when Xiao 15 was young, he was told to learn how to date brothers. If there is such a day in the future, he will not be alone, and will have brothers to help him.

The idea of ​​competing for reserves must not be implanted in Xiao Shiwu's young heart early on, otherwise the child will only have that one thought in his heart, and his mind will be narrowed, and he can only see that one thing, But I can't see the distance of the world.
.
On July [-]th, Xiaoqi and Jiujiu released their clothes together and prepared to move back to Yuanmingyuan from Jing'an Village.

Xiaoqi came with Jiujiu to say goodbye to several sister-in-laws, nephews and daughters-in-law.

Because the eighth princess lived in the same place, it was the last to say goodbye to the eighth princess.

The eighth princess looked cold, "Since you don't want to wear a hundred-day filial piety for my mother-in-law, why bother to come? Although it is because of the Ghost Festival, I asked you to release your clothes early, but I still won't look down on you." Come out, Huang Ama is taking care of you two celebrating your birthday!"

Jiujiu is not like Xiaoqi is an older sister, Jiujiu is a younger sister herself, and Concubine Rong is used to everything, so she is a little pepper at heart.Hearing what the Eighth Princess said, Jiujiu stared, "What does Eighth Sister mean? This is Huang Ama's order. If Eighth Sister has any resentment in her heart, she should go and ask Huang Ama directly!"

Xiaoqi frowned, hurriedly grabbed Jiujiu, and dragged Jiujiu behind her.

Xiaoqi tried her best to keep things calm, and said softly, "Shunying, don't think too much. Although Jiujiu and I were released early, it has been [-] days since I wore filial piety on the second day of May; Wearing filial piety, it has been a full month today. Although this is an early release, it is still enough to comfort the two empresses in heaven."

"As for the fact that you can't release clothes with us in advance, it's because you are the princess of Empress Xin's birth, which is different from us. You have to wear filial piety for at least 27 months."

Shunying had nothing to say, so she turned her head away and said angrily, "It's all right this time, you sisters can leave together hand in hand!"

Since Chiu Chiu came here on the sixth day of June, he lived with Xiao Qi.This made Shunying look at other people's relatives, sisters and relatives, and made her feel left out in the cold again.

Now that the sisters are going to leave together, she is left alone in Jing'an Village.

There was unspeakable resentment in her heart.But there is nowhere to vent, and it all depends on Xiaoqi and Jiujiu.

Jiujiu couldn't listen anymore, walked out from Xiaoqi's back, and replied unceremoniously, "Eighth sister is envious of me and my sister! Eighth sister is not a sister who doesn't have a compatriot, but eighth sister is in Jing'an Village. Go on and on about Sixth Sister. After all, Sixth Sister might have stayed here for a while, maybe she heard your nagging and came back to accompany you at night!"

Xiao Qi quickly covered Jiujiu's mouth.This little girl is really annoying.

Jiujiu mentioned the sixth princess Shunhua, which aroused Shunying's anger even more.

"You should also mention my sister! It's fine if you don't mention it. Since you mentioned it, I have to let you know what happened to my sister in the first place!"

"It's all your mothers! She clearly saw my sister jumping and playing on the rocks with something in her mouth, and she clearly knew that the two nuns who followed her were not serving her wholeheartedly, but she never said that she had brought my sister over. , snatched the things from my sister's mouth... your mother-in-law is also guilty of my sister's departure!"

Jiujiu became anxious as soon as he heard it, and rushed forward to grab the eighth princess's hair, "You are talking nonsense! You dare to call me my mother, I will fight with you!"

Xiao Qi was already shocked, but he could only step forward and hug his sister tightly.

"What are you doing? You are both princesses of the Qing Dynasty. How can you behave like this! Besides, this is the Jing'an Zhuang Funeral Palace, and there are two empresses who are staying here temporarily. Calling you to make such a fuss will disturb them both. What should I do?" Xiao Qi had no choice but to scold the two younger sisters together.

Jiujiu was in her sister's arms, but she gritted her teeth unwillingly at the eighth princess, "Anyway, listen to me, if you dare to say that my mother is going, let alone in Jing'an Village, it will be in front of Huang Ama's eyes." Son, I dare to touch you!"

Xiaoqi also quietly raised her chin, and raised her sister's airs, "Shunying, I don't care where you heard this, I will never let it go so kindly. You are my younger sister, but my mother-in-law is too. I don't think the relationship between you and my sisters will surpass our mother-daughter relationship. Therefore, in this matter, I will never just tolerate what you said. "

"I will ask clearly when I go back, and I will definitely report your words to Empress Ama... If you are smart, then tell me the source of what you said just now, so that I can answer for you when the time comes Hu, just say that you were bewitched by others, not by yourself."

Shunying sneered, "I knew you never really regarded me as a sister! It's alright, just protect your mother, so you don't have to recognize me as a girl anymore!"

The three princesses started arguing, and in this "quiet" and "safe" Jing'an Manor, the commotion was not small.

The eunuchs on duty outside heard it, so they didn't dare to come in to persuade them, so they all reported to the princes Fujin.

Among them, Prince Ding'an Yonghuang's Fujin is the eldest sister-in-law of the three princesses, and his age is comparable to their mother-in-law's, so it is her duty to come here to see what's going on.

When Ilari walked in the door, the sound of people coming in came in with him, so it was an announcement.

"What happened to the three sisters?"

As soon as Xiao Qi saw that it was her sister-in-law who came, she hurriedly wanted to grab a younger sister and come together to say goodbye to her sister-in-law.But the eighth princess has exerted quite a lot of strength, and she flung Xiaoqi's hand away.

Xiao Qi frowned, but she could only stop Jiu Jiu, and went forward to say hello, "Sister-in-law is here. I'm really sorry for disturbing sister-in-law."

Ilari laughed quickly, "Look at Seventh Sister, who is so sensible. But we are a family, so how can we have such vain gifts? Since the three younger sisters are here, I, the sister-in-law, should naturally take care of the three of them." Sister, go. Sisters, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

But the eighth princess turned around and slammed the door first, "I have nothing to say to them! I'm sleepy, so go back to sleep first!"

Shunying didn't want to say it, and it was inconvenient for Xiaoqi to say it alone, so he avoided the important point and said lightly, "...It's me and Chiu Chiu who are going to go back to the Royal Garden tomorrow, and Shunying might be reluctant to let us go."

The three princesses are still children after all, and Ilari already has a plan in mind after seeing them like this.Yilali nodded, "Since the two younger sisters will go back tomorrow morning, I'm afraid they will have to clean up tonight. Then leave the eighth princess to me, and I'll go and talk to her."

Xiaoqi had no choice but to follow Yilalishi, and took Jiujiu back to clean up first.

Yilali looked at Guerjia, the companion next to her, slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and walked into Shunying's bedroom.
.
Wanxi welcomed Xiaoqi and Jiujiu back in the garden, so she set off with the emperor from Yuanmingyuan on July [-]th with peace of mind.

The accompanying concubines this time are: Empress, Concubine Ling, Concubine Qing, Concubine Ying, Concubine Rong, Fu Guiren, Xin Changzai, Yong Changzai, Ning Changzai, Na Changzai, Wu Changzai, a total of eleven.

This time, as many as eleven people accompanied them, which is rare in the past years.

Nala, Wanxi and other old people are fine. What is striking is that this time the emperor has all these newcomers who have been conferred from last year to this year. Except for the promise of the grand-niece Fu, all of them were brought, and no one was left behind.

Even Nalashi felt a little sour in his heart, and couldn't help but sneered, "Your Majesty, it's really raining and dew! Who said it, the older this man is, the more he likes younger ones." …From last year to this year, these new conferees are all as young as a puddle of water, and the emperor likes all of them!"

Dege said, "If this is the case, the master should be happy. What made the noble concubine so favored back then? Isn't it because she is 16 years younger than the emperor, and she has been a little girl for many years in the eyes of the emperor. But now She also has a time when someone is old, and it's time for these newcomers to share her favor."

Nala raised his eyebrows, "Well, it's true."

Although Nala said so, he still couldn't help asking, "Look at it, among the newcomers, who is the most attractive to the emperor?"

Dege said, "I'm afraid it's a lucky person..."

Nala's eyes narrowed.

"That's right. Fugui entered the palace with Yongchang and them last year, or I sent him to serve in the Empress Dowager's Palace. I thought that the people in the Empress Dowager's Palace would be out of reach of the Emperor for the time being. Who would have thought that she would be in early October last year?" San was granted the title of Changzai just now, but on March 22 this year, he followed the group of people like Na Xingzai and Wu Changzai, and was able to be promoted to nobleman again!"

Fugui was the only one among the group of newcomers from last year to this year who was promoted to Noble.From October of last year to March of this year, the interval between entry and exit was only five months, so one should not underestimate it.

Nala sneered, "That's right! From last year to this year, I was blindfolded by that bitch Dai Jia, and I couldn't care about others for the time being, so I even missed such a showy newcomer." go."

Dege also bit his lip, "...but I don't know when this noble lady won the favor of the emperor. She dared not come to the master to serve her."

Nala sneered, "After all, they are people in the empress dowager's palace, so there is a reason to say that Changchun Garden is far away from us, so it is not convenient to say hello every morning and evening. Besides, the empress dowager is taking care of her, and she also has Don't take me seriously."

Dege bit his lips, "At first we were all worried that Empress Xiaoxian's grand-nephew would come into the palace and be favored by the emperor; as a result, the one who came in only gave a promise, but this Fucha family got it." Grace to go..."

Nala narrowed his eyes, "The Fucha family... In the harem of our emperor, there is already a queen and a noble concubine? Although Fugui is not a branch of the Shaji Fucha family of Empress Xiaoxian, However, it is not far from the mother's family of the imperial concubine Zhemin. It seems that what the emperor misses more is the Fucha family of the imperial concubine Zhemin..."

Nala's heart is also bitter.After all, the noble concubine Zhemin was the emperor's first woman and gave birth to the emperor's first child.

Men, don't they all say that the most memorable thing in this life is the first woman?That's why the emperor gave Fugui a high regard, but he didn't care about Empress Xiaoxian's grandniece.

Nala stroked the lace on her cuff, "Since she is not far from Zhemin's family, it is not difficult to figure out who is behind her. Obviously, it is the Empress Dowager, but secretly, there must be Prince Ding's Mansion." Go all the way!"

When it comes to the battle for the throne, besides guarding against the prince, how could she not guard against the two grown-up grandsons?
Mian De is the eldest grandson of the emperor, and the first prince among the emperor's descendants at this time, and he was rationed to the daughter of Princess Hejing. couplet.

There is also Mian En, although he is the second grandson of a concubine, he is still a flat-headed brother at this time, and he is crushed to death by Mian De.However, since he was a child, he had the emperor's favor, which made people have to guard against it.

What's more, the Yonghuang's Fujin Ilari family in Prince Ding's mansion was not a fuel-efficient lamp in the first place!After all, the Yilali clan is actually the "Yelü clan" of the Liao Dynasty, after the royal family of the Liao Dynasty.With such a blood relationship, how could he not have the ambition to plan for his son?

The more Nala thought about it, the more she couldn't help sneering, "The people and things in this palace are all unbearable to scrutiny. Once scrutiny starts, everyone next to each other has ulterior motives! I was just killed by Dai Jia last year After she got sick, she went back and cared more about Dai Jia for the next year, which made these little ghosts take advantage of the loopholes, and made them all think that they had a chance to get out of the mire cave and jump out of the cave. Pass through the Dragon Gate, and the loach kidnapper will turn into a dragon!"
.
The wheels are rolling, Wanxi sits with Yuqin and Concubine Ying.

What the three of them were talking about was the events of the previous dynasty.

Just yesterday, that is, on July [-]th, the emperor formally issued an edict to execute Burke Abdullahim of Kashgar, who had read Huohan and planned to rebel, and made his head public!

Abdul Raim's sons were also beheaded.His wives, daughters, and brothers' wives were also taken to the capital and rewarded as slaves to the families of heroes.

This is the most severe punishment the imperial court has imposed on the Berkes of the Hui Ministry since the imperial court pacified the Hui Ministry. It can be said that the imperial court and the Northwest were greatly shaken.

"It's just that I don't know how Ah Yu feels about this matter. And, after returning to the cities of the Ministry, what did Burke think?"

Concubine Ying was a little worried, and asked cautiously, "Forgive me for saying something I shouldn't have said. It's not easy to appease the cities of the Ministry. After this happened, will someone over there take the opportunity to slander the court and have the desire to rebel again?" ?”
