Chapter 157 Xianfeng

The capital is the imperial city, and the heart of the imperial city is the imperial palace.

In the imperial palace, southwest of Qianqing Palace, in the South Study Room, the South Study Room has been the emperor's study room since Emperor Kangxi.

In 1854, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty was named: Aixinjueluo Yipin, known as Emperor Xianfeng, and his favorite concubine, there are two: Yehenara Xingzhen (Cixi), Tatara (Li Fei).

However, in 1854, both Cixi and Concubine Li were still concubines and had not yet become concubines.

Generally speaking, the ranks of the harem in the Qing Dynasty are: nobleman → concubine → concubine → imperial concubine → empress/empress dowager/empress dowager.
Since Xiu Nv is basically at the level of a court lady, I don't think about it.

In the south study room, a man is wearing a bright yellow dress with Nine Dragons embroidered on it. There are eight front and rear stripes, one on the sleeve, and five dragons must be seen no matter from the back or from the front, so that people can see them. The number that coincides with ninety-five is the supreme.

It goes without saying that this person is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Xianfeng.At this time, Xianfeng was really sitting on his dragon chair, holding a stack of memorials in his hand, but he was not reading the memorials. At this time, he lowered his head and nodded slightly. Obviously, this time Now he wants to sleep.

Not far from Xianfeng stood a eunuch, that is, the eunuch guarding the emperor. He looked about 20 years old and stood respectfully beside the dragon chair.

Xianfeng has been in power for three or four years. In fact, he is really not very concerned about the matter of being in power. From time to time, when he is reviewing memorials, he wants to sleep.

Xianfeng is not a wise monarch, but he is not a stupid monarch. He is just a moderate monarch. He usually does not have any special hobbies. He is just a little lustful. In fact, this is historically speaking , the emperor is not interested in lust.

Just when Xianfeng was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a voice from outside. The voice was like this, "Brother Huang, Brother Huang, I'm back again."

Hearing this voice, Xianfeng woke up from his sleep, and immediately raised his lowered head, and after waking up, he also reacted.

So Xianfeng saw the eunuch directly beside him, and said to him, "Xiao Linzi, go and show me who is outside the door!".

The eunuch Xianfeng called was naturally the eunuch who had been standing beside Xianfeng all the time. Everyone in the palace called him Eunuch Lin.

Although it is said that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger, those who can be by the emperor's side generally have such a certain power, and his Eunuch Lin is naturally the same, although his current status is not very high (in the palace), but I don't know who How many court ladies and eunuchs had to salute respectfully when they saw him.

Hearing Emperor Xianfeng's words, Eunuch Lin respectfully "cha!", and then slowly backed away. After retreating a certain distance, he turned around slowly and walked forward.

The south study room is divided into two rooms, the front and the back. Generally speaking, the emperor reads the memorials at the back.

Eunuch Lin came to the front hall and opened the door slowly. After the door of the South Study Room opened with a "crack", Eunuch Lin saw that it was actually the Seventh Princess, Aixinjueluo Qixing (Zhang Qixing)

Therefore, Eunuch Lin immediately saluted Zhang Qixing and respectfully said, "Slave, pay homage to the Seventh Princess, and the princess is blessed!"

After hearing this, Zhang Qixing waved his hands slightly, and said to him, "Eunuch Lin, excuse me!".

Then I saw Eunuch Lin say respectfully, "Thank you!" Then he stood up slowly.

Zhang Qixing saw Eunuch Lin at the door and asked, "Is my brother in there?".

"Reporting to the Seventh Princess, the Holy Majesty is reviewing the memorial inside." Eunuch Lin said truthfully and respectfully to Zhang Qixing.

When Zhang Qixing heard that his imperial brother was inside, he threw aside Eunuch Lin who was blocking the door and rushed in.

Eunuch Lin saw Zhang Qixing breaking in like this, and then hurriedly shouted at Zhang Qixing, "Princess Seven, the Holy Majesty is still reviewing memorials inside, you must not break in!".

As far as the palace is concerned, the South Study Room can be said to be an important place. Those memorials, confidential documents and the like are all inside, and it is the place where the emperor handles state affairs on a daily basis. Naturally, it is a first-class important place. How could it be possible for people to go in casually and easily?

Zhang Qixing didn't care about that, and rushed in towards the apse of the South Study Room, shouting loudly, "Brother Huang! Brother Huang! Brother Huang!".

After Zhang Qixing went in, he saw his fourth brother, Emperor Xianfeng, really sitting on the golden dragon chair, handling the memorial.

After Xianfeng was woken up by the sound of Zhang Qixing calling outside the door, he didn't feel sleepy, so he picked up the memorial and read it.

Xianfeng heard Zhang Qixing's voice again, feeling unwilling to leave him, so he raised his head, and at a glance, it turned out to be his fourth sister!
So he opened his mouth and said to Zhang Qixing, "So it's Seventh Sister, have you come back?", looking very happy. ?
As Xianfeng said, he put down the memorial in his hand, stood up, and hurriedly greeted him.

Emperor Daoguang had ten princesses. Only the seventh and tenth princesses were absent from the palace since they were young, and only came back a few times in a few years. Perhaps it was for this reason that Daoguang loved Zhang Qixing so much.

Before she died, she ordered Xianfeng and others to treat Zhang Qixing better. Therefore, although Zhang Qixing was not in the palace, her brothers and sisters treated her very well.

Zhang Qixing saw that his imperial brother came to greet him in person, so he bowed slightly to Xianfeng, and saluted Xianfeng, "Royal sister Aixinjueluo*Qixing, join the imperial brother!".

"Please get up quickly!" Xianfeng said with a smile on his face, while holding Zhang Qixing's hands, he helped Zhang Qixing up.

As he spoke, he saw Emperor Xianfeng welcoming Zhang Qixing onto his dragon chair.

And said to Zhang Qixing, "Seventh Sister, come and sit down with Brother Huang, let Brother Huang take a good look at you!".

The dragon chair is not so easy to sit on. Although Xianfeng let Zhang Qixing sit on it, Zhang Qixing still knows about it.

So he said to Emperor Xianfeng in a panic, "Brother Emperor, the dragon chair is where you sit, Brother Emperor, sister dare not!".

Listening to Zhang Qixing's words, Xianfeng said to Zhang Qixing disapprovingly, "What's the matter, you and my brother and sister are fine?" Xianfeng said to Zhang Qixing with a little anger, "I told you to sit down, you sit down, I But the Ninth Five-Year Lord, don’t you dare to disobey my orders!”.

Hearing Xianfeng's words, Zhang Qixing just nodded slightly at Xianfeng in embarrassment, and added, "Thank you, Brother Huang!" Then he sat down.

……

"Seventh sister, when did you come back?" Xianfeng asked Zhang Qixing with a smile on his face.

"Brother Huang, my little sister just returned to the palace yesterday!" Zhang Qixing replied slowly.

Listening to Zhang Qixing's words, Xianfeng nodded slightly, and said, "Oh!".

Then he asked Zhang Qixing, "Seventh sister, I remember that you only returned to the palace last year. I thought you would only come back once in three or four years. I didn't expect it to be so soon this time. I don't know why?".

"To be honest..." Zhang Qixing slowly explained the cause and effect of the matter to Emperor Xianfeng.

Listening to Zhang Qixing's narration, Xianfeng remembered that recently, because of the rebels from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, all the people in Longhushan rebelled.

It has been said that Xianfeng is not a wise king, and he doesn't really want to ask about these things. Although his sixth brother, Prince Gong, talked to him many times, he didn't pay much attention and didn't listen much.

So he smiled awkwardly at Zhang Qixing and said, "Look at my memory, I actually forgot about this!"

Then he said angrily, "Damn Longhushan, you dare to chase and kill my sister. This is not a rebellion! I will definitely wipe them out!"

"But Seventh Sister, I sent you back along the way and saved your righteous man. I really want to see him!" Then he asked Zhang Qixing, "What's his name?"

Zhang Qixing replied slightly to Xianfeng, "Yan Yunyang, his name is Yan Yunyang"

Hearing this words, Xianfeng first said in a low voice, "Yan Yunyang", and then said, "Yan Yunyang, right! I don't know where he is now, can I invite him to come and let me have a look! ".
