Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 384 The third part of the main story: The mystery of the disappearance of Concubine An and Concubine Jing

The third: It is the point of view in Yuetong's novel, and people, like the Zhang family in the previous article, lost the qualification to be buried in the concubine's dormitory. Here is a supplementary information. In Teacher Yang Zhen's "Emperor Kangxi's Family", I saw such a discourse: In the 56th year of Qianlong, he sorted out the people in the palace of the 46th year of Kangxi: "The Office of Internal Affairs, the general manager, found out that in the 46th year of Kangxi, there were sixteen heads of the Qianqing Palace, and they agreed Ten people. Jingyang Palace has 47 big promises, 82 small promises. Three masters of Yuqing Palace, seven big promises, and 22 small promises. 41 promises in the institute, 38 students, 130 women in total, one year For items such as palace divisions and rules, a total of about 790 taels of silver is needed, five cents and eight cents.” This information comes from pages 628-629 of Qing Palace Shuwen edited by Zhang Naiwei and Wang Airen.

Yue Tong and Teacher Yang Zhen have slightly different understandings here. The big and small promises not to talk about it here for the time being, and only talk about the lord of the harem. Yue Tong thinks that the so-called lord of the Qianqing Palace should refer to the Qianqing Palace because Kangxi lived in the Qianqing Palace. There were 16 concubines in Kangxi's main palace, and the master of Yuqing palace, because the prince lived in Yuqing palace, so these three people in the main palace should be the main room and side room accepted by the prince. (Teacher Yang Zhen gave Kangxi the titles of Qianqing Palace and Yuqing Palace, Yuetong personally thinks it is inappropriate)
Clean up all living and dead concubines of Kangxi up to the 46th year of Kangxi: three empresses: Renxiao, Xiaozhao, Xiaoyi, two noble concubines: Cuihui, Wenxi, eight concubines: Rongfei, Yifei, Defei, Huifei Concubine Hui, Concubine Ping, and four concubines: Liang Concubine, Xi Concubine, Duan Concubine, and He Concubine; there is one person who is not counted here: Concubine Min, why is she not counted? Pay attention to the last sentence in this article, which is The silver taels needed for the palace share, and Concubine Min was posthumously pursued by Kangxi, which means that she did not enjoy the treatment of a concubine during her lifetime, and could not get the share of the main concubine, so naturally she was not included in the list of the main concubines.There are exactly sixteen people here, so it can also be understood that the two people, Concubine An and Concubine Jing, are no longer in the concubine list at this time. The previous analysis may have degraded the title of the two, but the demotion of the title means that There is also a throne, so it is still possible to be buried in the concubine's garden.

Since these two people have never been mentioned again, here is Yuetong's point of view: these two people are not qualified to enter the concubine's garden, because they have completely lost any titles given by Kangxi, and they may have violated the palace. She was executed in secret before, even if she was not executed, she would lose her title and the qualification to be buried in the concubine's garden. Following this line of thought, there are Wang Jingzhi and Li Anzhu in Yuetong's novel. The story is of course made up, but the plot of the story The design is derived from such historical extrapolation.
