Chapter 271

Sister Rong walked in gracefully holding the hand of the maid Hua'er, and satirized Xiu Yu from the beginning.

Having been together along the way, it is said that she dragged the Wang family into the palace, and Concubine Rong's mouth is still as poisonous as ever.

"Look at what Sister Concubine Rong said, our harem sisters are naturally sisters who serve the Lord Long Live." Xiu Yu specially emphasized the word "sister": "The Concubine Wang Shu was personally favored by the Lord Long Live, and the Concubine Wang Shu is outstanding. It's not as good as waiting, and it's not surprising that Long Live Lord has always had a high eye for Concubine Wang Shu. Besides, Concubine Wang Shu is a well-known beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, with a delicate temperament, amiable personality, and gets along very well with all the sisters along the way. Luckily, who doesn't like it.

Presumably, Concubine Rong would also like Concubine Wang's temperament, but it's a pity that Long Live Lord didn't give Concubine Wang to Sister Rong's palace, otherwise the two of you could get along better than all the sisters. "

Concubine Rong has always been proud and arrogant, so Kangxi favored her so early, how could she allow a Han woman to enter her palace, let alone a favored Han concubine.Xiu Yu said that she gets along well with Wang Shiyou, which is mocking her.

In Xiu Yu's words, she praised the Wang family a lot, not only worried about everyone's family background, but also praised Kangxi for her beauty and temperament, which is enough to make the concubines who attach great importance to appearance jealous of the Wang family. There is also a more important point that Wang's great fortune alludes to her being pregnant with a dragon fetus, which is why the concubines are so jealous.

"Huh, there are quite a few people living in Zhongcui Palace in this palace. It's too crowded because I'm afraid that the concubine Wang Shu will look down on this palace, or the spaciousness of Qixiang Palace." , until now she can't accept Concubine Jing calling her sister, but she has never called Concubine Jing sister.

As for Wang, a concubine of the Han Dynasty, Concubine Rong, doesn't look down on Wang at all, let alone has a deep affection for her sisters.

With Concubine Rong's words, Wang's little face turned pale, and even Borzigit's concubine's complexion was not good. She is not favored in the harem, who knows that Long Live Lord is not willing to go to Qixiang Palace and those low-ranking concubines in the harem. I don't want to live in Qixiang Palace.

Concubine Wen and Concubine Hui arrived, and Concubine Huang Guifei made everyone wait for a long time before coming out.I don't know if she didn't sleep well last night, the imperial concubine's haggard complexion and heavy dark circles could not be covered even with thick makeup.

After all the concubines saluted and were offered to sit up, a court lady hurried in to plead guilty.

"My maidservant greets the imperial concubine and concubine, and my maiden is blessed with golden safety. The maidservant's family was too tired to come and feel unwell this morning, so I specially asked my maidservant to come here to apologize." The words of apology immediately made the face of the imperial concubine even darker, and made all the concubines guess constantly.

Concubine Tong Jia's concubine was obviously well when she returned to the palace yesterday, why did she suddenly feel unwell today, and the imperial concubine's complexion is so bad, could it be that something happened to the two sisters that they didn't know about.

Sitting high, the face of the imperial concubine turned from blue to white and then from white to green several times, obviously she didn't expect that her own sister would make her ugly in front of everyone.But the imperial concubine is the imperial concubine, and she values ​​her dignity in front of others the most. Even if Tong Jia's concubine gave her a bad look, she still looks dignified and majestic. Asked with a look:

"Your master is not feeling well, but you have asked the imperial doctor. What did the imperial doctor say? Wasn't my sister fine yesterday? Why did she suddenly feel unwell?"

"I have sent someone to invite the imperial physician. The imperial physician hadn't arrived when the servants came, so the other servants didn't know."

"Forget it, you go back to serve your master first, and come back to this palace after the imperial physician has the result of diagnosis. Tell your master that I will go to see her later."

"Hey, the servants will leave."

The court lady left the empress and noble concubine's eyes and glanced at everyone in the hall, as if to see if someone was laughing at her, as if she didn't want to give up, and finally her eyes fell on the concubine Wang Shu who stood at the bottom, but it just passed by. The intense jealousy at that moment was suppressed in the slightly drooping eyebrows and eyes.No one knew that the imperial concubine's mood at this time was precisely because of this strong jealousy that made her do something irrational not long after.

"let's start."

The imperial concubine spoke suddenly, and the concubine Wang Shu began to give the imperial concubine a grand gift from the inner court.I don't know what the imperial concubine's intention was, but she didn't make things difficult for Wang, she just gave Wang a few words of symbolic admonition, and then let Wang let Wang salute the four concubines and five concubines in the harem.The imperial concubine let the Wang family go so easily, it really made everyone suspicious. After all, the imperial concubine was jealous of the Wang family before, how could the imperial concubine let it go? Opportunity to suffer.

Regardless of the reason, Wang's first greeting to the palace passed without any risk.After coming out of Chengqian Palace, Xiu Yu did not return to Jingren Palace immediately.Seeing that it was still early, Xiu Yu diverted to Shoukang Palace.After returning from the southern tour, the imperial concubine was supposed to lead everyone to pay her respects to the empress dowager, but she was pushed back by the imperial concubine because it was not the [-]th day of the lunar new year. The friendship between her and the empress dowager is deeper than that of other concubines, and more importantly, Yinzhen is still raised under the empress dowager's knee even if she moves to elder brother's house.

"Your Majesty, it's Dafujin!"

On the chariot, Xiu Yu was resting with his eyes closed, when Yuntang saw Da Fujin Ergenjue Luoshi coming across, he reminded Xiu Yu that when Xiu Yu opened his eyes, Da Fujin was already approaching.

"My daughter-in-law greets Concubine Jing, and Concubine Jing is auspicious."

"Get up quickly, that slave will help you; you don't need to be too polite." Xiu Yu looked at Da Fujin, especially at her swollen belly. It has only been a few months, and Da Fujin's belly is already the second time to rouse.Seeing Da Fujin's plump body despite being pregnant, Xiu Yu couldn't help but feel sympathetic.

"Da Fujin came out of Shoukang Palace?"

"Exactly, my daughter-in-law went to chat with Huang Mama. Huang Mama wanted to see her great-granddaughter, so she told her daughter-in-law to bring Da Ge there often." Da Fujin's tone was a little proud.

Her daughter is the eldest granddaughter of Huang Ama, and when the little elder brother in her womb is born, the eldest grandchildren of the next generation of the royal family will be born of her.

Xiu Yu glanced at Da Gege who was less than a year old in the arms of the nanny behind Da Fujin, and then looked at Da Fujin's belly, completely indifferent to the pride and showing off in Da Fujin's tone and expression.I saw a faint smile on her face, "Big Gege is a lovely child, no wonder the Empress Dowager likes it."

"Concubine Xie Jing praised it, and Huang Mama said the same thing about Da Gege. Da Gege is a little tired. If Concubine Jing doesn't have any orders, the daughter-in-law will take Da Gege back first." Da Fujin caressed his swollen belly and said, "I'm very happy." I'm tired, and I don't want to talk to you more.Seeing her like this, Xiu Yu was not unhappy, she still smiled lightly and said: "The eldest granddaughter of the emperor is indeed delicate, it would be bad if Da Gege gets tired, you should take her back first."

"There, the daughter-in-law will leave first."

Seeing Da Fujin's figure walk away, Yuntang said very displeasedly: "Your Majesty, look at Da Fujin's appearance, but you have no respect for your Majesty."

Yuntang decides to serve Xiuyu for the rest of her life, and Xiuyu holds a great deal of weight in Yuntang's heart, and she can't tolerate others disrespecting Xiuyu.

"Why do you care, it's just a junior, I don't want to lose my price to argue with a junior. Besides, she gave birth to the eldest granddaughter of the emperor, and she is the first child of the royal family. It is normal for her to be proud of being praised by everyone. .”

The eldest granddaughter of the emperor, hehe, it is precisely because she is the first child that she is so precious. If there are too many granddaughters, she will be worthless.If Da Fujin knew that she would have four daughters in a row, I don't know if she would be happy.

Speaking of which, Dafujin and her mother-in-law Mrs. Guo Luoluo are still of the same clan, but Dafujin's natal family was originally selected as an offshoot of the Yiergenjueluo clan. That branch was carried into the direct branch, and now it is considered one of the direct branch.In terms of seniority, this Ergenjue Luoshi still has to call her cousin.

It's just that Yiergen Jueluo became Dafujin, that is the person from Concubine Hui's side, and naturally she is no longer relatives.Speaking of which, Da Fujin is short-lived, so she doesn't need to argue with Da Fujin.

"Ma'am, are you talking about Da Fujin's baby or..." Yun Tang obviously guessed what Xiu Yu meant.

"Ben Gong didn't say anything." Xiu Yu interrupted Yun Tang, some words cannot be said clearly. "Big Gege isn't even one year old yet. Ben Gong looks at Da Fujin's appearance, and the second child should be five or six months old, right?"

"Da Gege is only seven months old, and Da Fujin's baby is about five months old," Yun Tang said, suddenly looking up at Xiu Yu, lowering her head and thinking.

"His Royal Highness's side Fujin is about to enter the palace, so it's not surprising that Da Fujin is in a hurry."

It is no secret that the elder brother and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dislike each other and fight endlessly.The two don't fight over business and power, and even compete with each other when it comes to having children.

And the elder brother is very concerned about the identity of the prince's son. He thinks that the prince was named the prince because he is the son of the prince, and he thinks that the prince suppressed him and made him suffer. The eldest grandson of the royal family.And it's no secret that he wants the eldest son in front of the palace.

At the beginning of the year, Kangxi selected three princesses from the 25-year-old showgirls who were selected for re-election and gave them to the crown prince. Fujin's wedding etiquette department has already made preparations, and the crown prince will be carried into Yuqing Palace soon after he returns to Beijing.

Not only does the prince have side Fujin concubines, as long as the prince pampers them, someone may conceive a child at any time, no wonder the elder brother is so anxious.The elder brother wanted the eldest son, so he would not let the concubine in the mansion give birth to the elder brother. For the sake of the eldest son, he didn't care about Da Fujin's confinement and let her conceive again.

Seeing that the elder brother has children, Xiu Yu can't help but sigh with emotion, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.Thinking of the damn age calculation in the Qing Dynasty, her son Yinzhen is also thirteen years old, and I am afraid that Kangxi will propose marriage to him in the next year's general election. Just thinking about this makes Xiu Yu's brain swell.

During the southern tour, Kangxi even mentioned to her to arrange a court lady for Yinzhen to teach personnel affairs, but she later refused because Yinzhen was still young and had not picked a suitable court lady.I just pushed it once, I'm afraid it will be difficult to push it again next time.When she thought that her son, who was only eleven or twelve years old, would be put to sleep, Xiu Yu panicked.

No, she has to go back and think about it carefully, she has to take a good look at Yinzhen's wives and concubines before she can choose them.Xiu Yu, who was preoccupied with choosing a wife for her son, never thought of one thing, that is, she was about to become a mother-in-law in her 20s, and when she thought about it later, it made her depressed for a long time.It's just that now she is only thinking about how to choose a wife and concubine for her son.

Bear the brunt of it is the matter of the court ladies who teach personnel affairs. This matter is the most important, and it must be before the next year's general election at the latest.But this maid who teaches personnel doesn't want to choose a woman from Baoyiqi, her son deserves the best, even the lowest-ranking concubine Xiu Yu doesn't want to choose a woman from Baoyiqi for him.It doesn't matter if she discriminates against her or says she is modernized, but she just doesn't like those women who wrap clothes and flags. In the eyes of everyone, wrap clothes are slaves, and slaves should do what slaves should do. She doesn't want her grandson to be a slave born in the belly of a slave.

This time the small election was too hasty, and Xiu Yu had already found an excuse to say that she would choose next year's small election.As for the maid who taught personnel affairs, she had already thought about it on the southern tour.Asked someone to secretly screen out the daughters of a few official families of the sixth and seventh ranks from the small families on the flag, and picked two out of the knowledge of the outsiders, and then arranged for someone to take them into the palace, and she stayed by her side to let them go. After being taught for one year, it was given to Yinzhen.

How can her son's thoughts stay on a concubine? The son should be in harmony with the Fujin couple in order to have a stable backyard. Therefore, the court lady who teaches personnel does not need to be too good-looking, nor too shrewd, nor too careful. Obedient is the best.

The draft system of the Qing Dynasty required all girls from Manchu and Eight Banners families who were 13 to 16 years old to participate in the draft every three years. The daughters of these six or seven official ranks had little chance of being selected, and they could have someone to serve the prince. These people will definitely be grateful for the opportunity.

After returning from the southern tour, Xiu Yu devoted all her attention to the matter of choosing a teacher for her son, and recently she didn't pay much attention to the matter of the harem.The life of the concubines in the harem was full of ups and downs following Kangxi's return to the palace. Perhaps it was stimulated by Wang's pregnancy.Of course, it is mainly those low-ranking concubines. High-ranking concubines hold on to their identities, and they will definitely not use low-ranking methods to compete for favor like low-ranking concubines.

Xiu Yu has always been favored in the harem, she can even be said to be the most favored one.Naturally, she doesn't need to go to great lengths to fight for favor like other concubines, she just needs solid favor.As early as ten years ago, she was involved in this matter. When Kangxi came, she served Kangxi with all her heart to make Kangxi comfortable and satisfied, and created a warm and comfortable environment for Kangxi, so that Kangxi could get used to her, get used to coming to her, and come to her to relax.

.

These ten years of hard work to create nature are not in vain, and now whenever Kangxi feels tired and tired, or when he is depressed, he will come to her to sit or stay with her.Originally, she had at least three days of bedtime opportunities every month, plus these occasional opportunities, she was still the one with the most bedtime days in the harem.Whether the concubines in the harem are favored or not is the most important force and basis.

She has served Kangxi for more than ten years, and now she is 26, which is considered old in the harem.I thought that Kangxi was already tired of her, but I didn't expect that every time Kangxi came to her, it would be the same as ten years ago. Every time he tossed very hard, and every time he tossed and tossed until midnight at least twice before giving up.

At the beginning, she was also worried that Kangxi would hurt the dragon's body like this, and that Kangxi would be mentally exhausted during the day if he exhausted too much energy at night; who would have thought that every time Kangxi came back to serve her bed, Kangxi would be refreshed the next day.After seeing him like this several times, Xiu Yu was completely relieved.

In the early morning of this day, after Xiu Yu served Kangxi for breakfast, and personally sent Kangxi to the gate of Jingren Palace to watch the dragon chariot leave without a trace, Xiu Yu went back to fix her eyes.

In recent days, the imperial concubine's health has been getting worse and worse, and the daily greetings in the morning have been changed to once every five days, so Xiu Yu can sleep in every other day for four days, which is her favorite day.

Of course, it is not the imperial concubine's wish to change the greetings. Only when the concubines greet her can they reflect the dignity of her imperial concubine and make her feel satisfied.It's just that her health is getting worse and she doesn't have the energy to take care of so much. Kangxi once asked her to put down the palace affairs and take good care of her body, but she is used to the feeling that the palace is in control, how can she let it go, and now she has no pampering, Only by tightly holding the palace power in her hands can she feel safe and feel that she is still the imperial concubine at the head of the harem.

The more energy she spends on palace affairs, the worse her health will be, but Xiu Yu is also happy to see her like this.

Xiu Yu leaned on the couch and closed her eyes to meditate on the matter of the imperial concubine, but she didn't expect that something related to the imperial concubine would happen in the harem soon.

"Niang Niang, something serious happened outside." Hearing this voice, it was Qingluo, this girl was a little too lively, she couldn't stay in Jingren Palace.

"Tell me, what happened again?"

Ever since Kangxi returned to the palace, there have been occasional minor and major events in the harem, but no matter whether it is a major event or a small matter, it is just a matter of concubines competing for favor.Kangxi suppressed the current harem to balance the harem concubines, and they couldn't make any big waves.

"My lady, the concubine Wang Shu didn't know that she offended the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine was furious and punished her to kneel in the imperial garden, but she didn't want the concubine Wang concubine to be red after kneeling for a while, and she was still bleeding profusely, which might be a miscarriage. The concubine Wang Shu was very angry and scolded the emperor." Concubine, Concubine Huang was fainted from anger."

"See Hong, miscarriage?!" Xiu Yu was a little surprised.But what surprised her even more was that the imperial concubine actually confronted the concubine Wang Shu directly. Go up against yourself.

"Ma'am, do you want to go see it?"

"Well, I have to go and have a look, and ask someone to prepare a chariot and go to Chengqian Palace."
