Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 341 A brief introduction to Kangxi's "virtuous concubine" Yuetong
3) Yue Tong will never approve of Kangxi’s point of view that he favored Concubine Rong in the first ten years, and Concubine De later. Those who raised this point of view inferred it completely according to their birth status, but many people have neglected the important point. "Women's childbearing age", Concubine Rong gave birth to her first child in the sixth year of Kangxi, and Concubine De gave birth to her first child in the 16th year of Kangxi. The age gap between them should be at least seven or eight years old. One child was in the 16th year of Kangxi, and the last child of Defei was in the 26th year of Kangxi. The reproductive cycle is ten years. These ten years are the best fertility period for women. According to the latest British research, women's fertility declines after the age of 27. Obviously, Concubine Rong's fertility was already declining when Concubine De started having children, so how can the two be compared?I have already given birth to six children. Is it not normal to be unable to give birth, and the possibility of pregnancy is low?What's more, it was the period when the medical level was underdeveloped in ancient times. (In the novel, Yuetong uses the earthquake as the reason, which is considered a literary effect, but if there is no such reason, it is quite normal for Concubine Rong not to be able to give birth.) After all, wouldn’t Concubine De be unable to give birth after ten years?

4) There is another evidence that is often used to prove that Kangxi favored the concubine: Yin Zuo's name, what does "Zuo" mean?The most authoritative reference is not "Modern Chinese Dictionary", not "Xinhua Dictionary", but "Kangxi Dictionary" compiled by Kangxi. 】 Save it cut 【】 Jing so cut rhyme, sound Xun.Fu also, Lu also, position also. 【Poem • Daya】 Yongxi Zuo Yin. 【Note】 Zuo, Fu Zuo. 【Zuo Zhuan Xuan three years】Tianzuo Mingde.And old also. 【Cao Zhi·Yuanhui Poetry】 Yuanzuo at the beginning of his life. 【Book of Jin·Wang Shen Chuan】 Playing the piano and chanting the classics to keep the year.In fact, its main meaning is still the meaning of "blessing". At least here, there is no meaning of "granting the throne". Among them, I see that it seems to mean "status", not the meaning of the throne. In addition, the sentence "Yongxi Zuoyin" in the "Book of Songs" that is most similar to Yinzuo's name means "children and grandchildren." The meaning of eternal prosperity" Don't forget, there is another historical event. The month Yinzuo was born was the month the prince Yinqi died. A child died and a child was gained. Xuan Ye used the name of this child to express his grief for the loss. Isn't it normal for a child to be sad and hope for the prince Fulu of the Qing Dynasty?
In addition, Yinzuo was born in Kangxi in 19 years. It was the time when Kangxi carefully planted and accompanied Yinreng. He bestowed the throne on Yinzuo. Don't you think it's ridiculous?How much Kangxi valued Yinreng is seen in the historical materials. I was afraid that others would not respect Yinreng. In the 25th year of Kangxi, he also set a gift similar to his emperor's position as a gift for the prince. You would think that Kangxi wanted it in 19 years. Give the throne to Yinzuo?It's ridiculous.

In fact, Wen Yuetong also said before that the princes of the Qing Dynasty were named by the ministers, and Xuan Ye selected them, so Yuetong thought that only the early children Xuan Ye would serve dim sum, especially the first few, they must be very caring , so Yuetong rewrote it. As long as the children can be on the side with Fu and next to the sign, it’s fine. The later naming is not so particular. After all, there are too many children. Think about it yourself when you have five After ten children, will you all value the meaning of your name?

5) People who like Concubine De should not argue with Yuetong about how Concubine De is favored. This is a novel, as Yuetong has said before. Concubine Rong is irreplaceable. Yuetong will collect all kinds of historical facts to prove this point, and rely on all vague information to Concubine Rong. This is the principle of Yuetong writing this novel. The heroine, if Yuetong herself is not determined to love, how can she let others love.

Why do you want to emphasize that Xuan Ye's favorite is Concubine Rong?Because I believe that a great emperor will not be a licentious monarch; a king who thinks of his mother's gloomy eyes will not fail to understand the sorrow of women in the harem; an excellent man must have a silent support behind him A woman; an emperor who suspects all his courtiers and even his sons in his heart needs a long-term, stable, warm and caring woman to let him live to a long life; Because of the "Concubine Rong"... This is Yuetong's guess. Those who don't believe it can use historical materials to refute it, or they can think that this is utopia, and a novel is a novel. You can choose not to agree with the author's point of view, or you can choose not to read the novel , but the author's point of view does not change.

In view of the fact that there are many people arguing in the comments when I came up today, Yuetong wrote a long article here to explain, just to clarify a point, that is, Yuetong's view on Concubine De, because there will be many scenes behind Concubine De , so it is better for me to state my position first, and finally conclude that Yuetong will never deny that Kangxi likes Concubine De, but Yuetong definitely thinks that she is not as good as Concubine Rong.

Alas, I wrote it for a long time before I knew it... It can be regarded as the confirmation of my point of view, so as not to let everyone guess, Yuetong held high the banner of Kangxi's most favored concubine in his life. Almost no one mentioned it before, but I firmly believe it. ...and to be illustrated with convincing historical extrapolation...
