The struggle of the eight blessings of rebirth

Chapter 113 Whose rules?

As early as the beginning of 44, Lagu Su Ma's body was already dry.But as the longest-lived and highly respected old man in the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi's "Ene", the imperial physicians naturally tried their best to treat him and dare not neglect.However, the old man was over 90 years old after all, and his physiological functions had completely degenerated. After a Spring Festival, he finally died.

Yinfei brought Fujin and his son to cry uncontrollably in front of the sick bed, and Yinzhi was even more panicked. Last time when Prince Yu passed away, he just took a bath and combed his hair, and then he was demoted. What did you say this time? Can't go wrong either.

Therefore, on the one hand, Yinzhi asked Kangxi for instructions on the funeral specifications of Aunt Su Ma, and on the other hand, arranged for the wives of all the princes and princesses in Beijing to guard the old lady's coffin.As a slave, Aunt Su Ma was treated with such a high standard after death, which has never happened before in the history of etiquette in the Qing Dynasty. Even so, Yinzhi was still terrified, for fear that the old man would come back and pick on him. Simply live with Yinxuan and guard the spirit of Aunt Su Ma.

Minzhi and other members of the sister-in-law group also entered the palace according to the order, and went to the side hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace to offer incense and pray every day, returning at sunset.For seven consecutive days like this, everyone was exhausted, but Kangxi wrote that he would not return until another seven days later, and that "Ene"'s body would remain for another seven days.Everyone fell down.God!Fourteen days of vigil?This is not something people do!
Moreover, Yinzhi is very cautious, he has never come out since he hid in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and every day the memorials of the military plane are piled up like a mountain, all on Yinhu's head, he can't just give a reply, he can only be a little secretary, Sort them out by category and read them when Kangxi comes back.

What Qin Tianjian said that the north will have less rain this year by how many millimeters.The Ministry of Households said that this year’s taxes were tens of thousands less than in previous years. The Ministry of Punishment said that a certain death row prisoner would be executed when his reprieve expired. , The Ministry of War said that it was discovered that Galdan's old troops often moved westward, and Sichuan thieves were rampant.Even the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to play a role. Liulichang has fired glazed tiles with new patterns, so it has to report with a thousand-word memorial.

Yinhu was dizzy from all kinds of strange memorials every day, and insisted on reporting to the Compassionate Ning Palace at night, and the little meat he had managed to raise disappeared quickly.Minzhi, who was in the side hall, knew nothing about it. She went to the side hall with her sister-in-law to get a box of lunch every day, and then knelt in her place to pray. During this period, there was no supply except water.

As fragile as a princess, she persisted for a day before being sent back to Yuqing Palace.Princess Zhijun didn't come at all because she was pregnant with Liujia, Sanfujin knelt down in the first place this time, and Minzhi was still the unremarkable one among the crowd.Peeking at the other members of the sister-in-law group, Minzhi suddenly felt like weeping with joy.

Sifujin's son died, and Hongshi was the only one left in the family. Her husband and children were struggling. As the owner of the inner house, Sifujin Yali Shanda not only had to endure envy and jealousy to push Yinzhen into the concubine's room, but also kept staring at her. Hongshi's seedling can't have a cold or a cold, otherwise it's her responsibility, and the saliva of public opinion can drown her.You said how could she not "make people haggard for Yixiao"?
Wu Fujin is something that Minzhi has never been able to understand. You say that Yinqi treats her badly, and she doesn't look like it. You say treat her well. She didn't even have a daughter, but Fang Fujin has both children.Yinhu also said that Wufu Jin's situation is special, so why is there a special method?He looks like an honest person, and Yin Qi, who is honest and honest, is really a match.But no matter how honest a man is, his family is still full of wives and concubines.There are many sons and daughters.Therefore, Sifu Jin's suffering can be seen by others.

Qifujin is a well-known soy sauce party. Like her husband Yinyou, she has always been outside the core members of the sister-in-law group and rarely goes out. Because of Yinyou's bad legs, Kangxi took good care of him, not only was he banned early Baylor, and the rewards during festivals and festivals are distributed according to the rules of the county king. It can be said that Yinyou's family is a typical old family in the Qing Dynasty.Yinyou has a fierce temper and dares to blow his beard and stare at the prince.

The other princes didn't want to know him because of his disability, and Kangxi doted on him, which gradually made him grow into a powder keg.Compared with her husband's smoldering personality, Qifujin is so low-key that she is almost invisible. Every time she and Minzhi sit together at sister-in-law gatherings, she doesn't hear a word for a long time, and it's almost just a decoration.Because she was hidden in front, Minzhi dived behind her, appearing deeper.

The most disturbing thing was Jiufujin who passed out three times in seven days. This girl's temper and physical condition were not at all like Manchurian women. After giving birth to her daughter, she became even weaker.He fell down at the touch of a touch, and he knelt beside Minzhi.

Because Shou Ling could only wear plain clothes and face up to the sky, Jiu Fujin's face was as white as if it had been painted with Nippon Paint. The next day, she was taken to rest early because of a coma. Unexpectedly, she came again the next morning. He quietly persuaded her to ask for leave, but she said that if she couldn't insist on such a trivial matter, then she would be too sorry for Yinzhen.

Minzhi listened to this reason and endured it, so she didn't yell at her: "What's the reason, you are afraid to let him down because of his stinky demeanor? Are you too holy?" But she didn't That is to say, Wu Fujin has taught her a lesson before, you have to set an outrageous example outside like Shi Fujin, no one knows how you are doing at home, everyone will laugh at you at most, Mongolian daughter-in-law is really tough, Or just like the four Fujin, the fifth Fujin, the seventh Fujin and the nine Fujin, gentle and virtuous, knocking out teeth and swallowing blood.We shed tears of sympathy for you.

Just as she was thinking about it, her shoulders sank, but Jiu Fujin's whole body fell onto her shoulders, and she sighed in her heart: Here it comes again.However, he yelled along with Shi Fujin: "Sister-in-law\Jiu sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Carry it down and send it to the imperial physician for consultation. The rest of the people are still kneeling.

However, Jiufujin didn't wake up in time when he fainted this time, until the servant brought dinner, and when everyone finished their day's wake and had their meals, Jiufujin still didn't show up.Now Minzhi felt worried, took a few mouthfuls in a hurry, and wanted to see what happened to Jiufu Jin.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the hall, Sanfujin's clear voice sounded from behind: "Where are you going?" Minzhi turned around and looked at Sanfujin suspiciously: "I'm going to see the ninth brother and sister, she passed out this time It's been too long!" Unexpectedly, Sanfujin raised his eyebrows: "We are all here to guard the vigil for Madam Su, during the vigil, no one is allowed to step out of the hall, brothers and sisters, please be careful, don't break the rules. .”

Minzhi's heart skipped a beat: "Yes, is it? I don't know, this is the ancestor's rule?" The reason for asking this question is because Minzhi really didn't know there was such a rule.She participated in the funerals of the princess and Prince Yu outside the palace, and she did what others did, without paying attention to any rules.The first time she was invited to participate in a funeral by the Compassionate Ning Palace, she was indeed a little uncertain.That's why I asked this question.

Unexpectedly, this question poked Sanfujin's heart, because she just said this nonsense.The symbolic meaning of Aunt Su Ma in the palace is special, but her actual identity is a maidservant, who is also the head of the Palace of Compassion and Peace.Everyone present is her master.It is unprecedented for a master to guard the spirit of a slave.

The reason why Yinzhi did this this time was entirely because he was frightened by Kangxi, and because he knew that Kangxi respected Aunt Su Ma very much, so he came up with such a ridiculous idea.Due to the limited status of Aunt Su Ma, there is no official to preside over the wake ceremony, and it is completely voluntary.No courtesy officer means no rules and regulations, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has no relevant records.It was entirely up to Yinzhi to do what they said.Therefore, what San Fujin said was actually a lie.

But Minzhi didn't know the mystery, she just asked out of curiosity.Sanfujin's face turned red and then turned white, and he glared at Minzhi angrily, thinking that the eighth younger siblings, who used to be as good as little sheep, dare to sing against me now?In front of all the sisters-in-law, she couldn't say that she fabricated this article out of thin air, so she could only say forcefully: "Yes, this is the ancestor's rules, brothers and sisters, please respect yourself!"

Minzhi said "Oh!" and took back her steps, thinking: the rules are the rules, why are you so fierce, I don't know why I asked you... Angrily walked back to her seat, knelt down, thinking about Jiufujin's condition.Suddenly there was a scream from the servant outside: "The empress dowager is here!" Sanfujin was the first to rush out to pick him up, Minzhi saw it, and the disdain in his heart became heavier.

The queen mother came in and glanced at all the Fujins present, and her eyes fell on Minzhi: "You are all kind-hearted. If the old sister knows that you respect her so much, she will laugh in the sky." Sanfujin said respectfully: "Emperor Mama, we all admire Madam Su. She is an old man in the palace. We should be like this."

The Queen Mother nodded, and then frowned: "Hey... Aijia knows that you are all good, but the old sister's status is limited. If you mobilize people like this, I'm afraid it will ruin her blessing!" Fujin couldn't hold back anymore: "But...but..."

The queen mother went on to say: "It's fine if you want it. After all the troubles, the old sister will feel uneasy. In her life, I know that she is the most cautious. She will never go beyond the etiquette and serve the empress dowager conscientiously. The former emperor and the emperor have always regarded themselves as slaves. We can only admire her from the bottom of our hearts. Okay, let’s get rid of these. Three guards of Yinzhi, Yinxu and Yinhu are enough! Caixuan, You stay and talk to Ai's family, and everyone else should go back."
