"I am not the kind of person who only raises questions and doesn't think about solutions."
Qingyan changed the little prince in her arms to a side-sitting position, and then moved her body so that the two of them were facing the emperor beside her.
Kangxi looked at the two big eyes, one big and one small, looking straight at him. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly. He stretched out his left hand to take the tea cup that Liang Jiugong handed over again, and said lightly: "
So what do you think?"
Qingyan carefully looked at the expressionless Kangxi and found that she couldn't guess his inner thoughts at this moment, so she decided to flatter him a little first:
"I think the name of Yuqing Palace is really good. It makes people feel your deep fatherly love for His Highness as tall as a mountain."
When Kangxi heard Concubine Jing's unusual words and Wen Zou Zou's words, he felt awkward, but he did not interrupt her and motioned for Qingyan to continue.
Seeing Kangxi nod, Qingyan continued to praise:
"The location of the East Palace is also chosen very well. It must be not far from the Qianqing Palace and the South Third Palace. When Baocheng moves in, he will go to the Qianqing Palace to the west to see you or to visit the elder brothers in the south.
Brothers are extremely convenient."
"No, this is the place I circled with a red pen after looking at the floor plan of the Forbidden City."
Kangxi felt that Concubine Jing could think of this, and thought that she was quite attentive, so he put the tea cup in her hand on the small table beside her, and gave Concubine Jing an admiring look.
However, Concubine Jing's focus went astray. Qingyan saw that if Kangxi stopped drinking tea, there would be no more squirting accidents. She rolled her eyes in her heart and continued with a smile:
"But Your Majesty, you have another huge invisible benefit that you haven't thought of!"
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Kangxi became somewhat interested when he heard this. He felt that he had considered every aspect carefully and there was nothing he had overlooked.
Qingyan did not answer Kangxi immediately. Instead, she moved the little prince in her arms upwards slightly to make him sit more comfortably. Then she raised her voice and said with a smile:
"I just heard what the Empress Dowager said. The Yuqing Palace will be sandwiched between the Zhai Palace and the Fengxian Palace. The Zhai Palace is a place for fasting, and the Fengxian Palace is the family temple dedicated to our ancestors of the Qing Dynasty.
ah!"
"Presumably on New Year's Eve, Longevity Festival, New Year's Day, Qingming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, Frost's Descent, New Year's Eve and other days when it is necessary to sacrifice ancestors1, the emperor is so filial, and he will definitely offer a large amount of incense to the ancestors."
"Then Baocheng will also be able to enjoy the blessings. If he lives in Yuqing Palace, which is next to Fengxian Palace, he can smell the same incense as his ancestors just by sniffing."
"Even if the smoke makes people shed tears, it is also of great benefit to Baocheng!"
Qingyan slowed down her speech, tried to make every word clear, and said sonorously and forcefully:
"His Royal Highness is exquisite and cute, and he is also so intelligent, diligent and studious. Everyone likes you!"
"When the time comes, the heroic spirits of our ancestors will follow the scent of incense floating in the air and float all the way to the top of Yuqing Palace. Seeing that the successor you have chosen is so outstanding, if they can't hold back the restless and passionate love for talent in their hearts,
Heart, thus entering Baocheng’s dream every night.”
"When the time comes, Baocheng will study hard with his masters during the day, and at night, in his sleep, his ancestors will open a small stove to teach how to govern the country. I can't even imagine how outstanding your highness will be by then!"
"Tell me, how could you ignore such a huge opportunity?" Qingyan said quietly.
As soon as the imperial concubine finished speaking, the entire hall instantly became dead silent.
Kangxi was also choked by little Hesheli's words.
He frowned and wanted to yell "presumptuous" at Concubine Jing, but little Hesheli's tone was excited, admiring and full of respect, as if in her opinion "the ancestors were dreaming and teaching the prince" was really true.
is one
This is a very good thing, a gift from God. However, the word "Yu" originally means "nurturing, giving birth". He named the East Palace "Yu Qing" in the hope that he could bless his beloved son safely and smoothly.
The earth grows.
With such a good meaning, when I heard Qingyan saying "smell the incense together" and "the ancestors fell asleep", I instantly felt the coldness around me and got goosebumps all over my body.
"Xuan Ye, what little Hesheli said is unreasonable. Our ancestors have worked hard for the Qing Dynasty all their lives. You can't let them go underground and still work for the younger generations."
The Queen Mother, who was sitting at the top, also spoke softly.
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager had always stood on the same front. Now that she understood what the Empress Dowager meant, she reached out and gave Xiaosi a piece of honey hawthorn cake, and said with a smile:
"The Ai family and Huang Er Niang have the same idea. Every brick and tile of the Zhai Palace and Fengxian Palace cannot be moved, so the East Palace sandwiched between them will definitely be a big deal, leaving Baocheng and his future wives and concubines
With all the children living in it, wouldn’t it be like letting the golden dragon from the sky crawl into the earthworm hole underground, and the seven-foot-tall man lying down under the bed to sleep? Oh my, it really makes me feel depressed and uncomfortable just thinking about it!”
Qingyan couldn't help but raise her head and look at Qiqige holding Xiaosi with bright eyes. She felt that the Queen Mother was really a wonderful person. Looking at other people's metaphors, she was really amazing!
When Kangxi saw that the three most senior women in the palace had all stood up to oppose it, and the Empress Dowager even brought up the words "earthworm hole" and "under the bed", he knew that there was something wrong with Yuqing Palace.
He was so pleased that he thought for a moment and then said:
"Then why don't I let Nan Huairen and the people from the Ministry of Industry redesign the design and combine the small rooms in the backyard into several large rooms? Wouldn't this make living more comfortable?"
Qingyan felt a little irritable when she heard Kangxi's nonsense, but she continued to patiently refute his words:
"If the emperor solves it this way, the living experience will definitely be much better."
"But this land is only so big. If this house is built bigger, the number will definitely be reduced a lot. In addition to the princess, there will also be concubines and princesses. There will definitely be no room for these people."
Ah, we can’t let the concubines and princesses live in the same room, so how can we have sex!”
Before Kangxi found a chance, he scolded her for being vulgar again. Qingyan was embarrassed again. She frowned in distress and said to Kangxi worriedly:
"And I am also afraid that the emperor's grandsons and granddaughters will be unhappy!"
What Concubine Jing said was too fast. Kangxi had just imagined a scene in his mind of Baocheng's wives and concubines fighting for the house. The next second, Qingyan brought it to his grandchildren.
He looked at his precious son, who was less than five years old and was not even as tall as his waist, and he really couldn't think of his own grandson and granddaughter.
"Ha, I finally figured it out. You are just dissatisfied with the address I chose for Yuqing Palace and are making excuses in various ways." Kangxi said coldly, turning the jade ring on his hand.
Qingyan was not afraid of Kangxi's strange aura at the moment. After sighing, she explained to him in a good-tempered manner:
"Your Majesty, I am a concubine who knows nothing and has never even been to the previous dynasty. How can I be dissatisfied with the location of the East Palace you have planned?"
"My fourth child is just over a year old, and he is already jealous of his younger sister. You may not think that these children are still young, but in the blink of an eye, 'ten years' will be gone."
"When Baoqing, Yinzhi, and Xiaosi all get married and open a mansion outside the palace, and your grandchildren are born, Baocheng will take your granddaughter and grandson out of the palace to play at his uncle's house.
The grandchildren were young and ignorant. When they saw the prince, the pavilions, gardens, lakes and other beautiful things built in the prince's palace, they came back to compare the red walls, wooden doors, and ancestral incense in their own homes.
Don’t you just cry with envy?”
"Oh, I also know that this is not appropriate to say. They are all grandchildren, and you don't need to pay attention to their inner envy. Anyway, these ignorant children have grown up in the blink of an eye. Their Amma's status is
The prince is still living in this earthworm hole, why can't they, sons and daughters, live there?"
Kangxi laughed angrily when he saw Qingyan's serious look on her face. His face became extremely ugly and he immediately shouted back:
"Why, is it possible that you still want me to build the Prince's Mansion outside the palace?"
"It's not bad to build a prince's palace. It's a big place and it's comfortable to live in." The old queen mother spoke from the ground and took over Kangxi's words.
"Absurd! Madam Huang, how can the majestic prince live outside the palace?"
When Kangxi heard that his royal mammy had also died in person, his slender red phoenix eyes widened in disbelief. He could not understand the thoughts of these three women.
Now he is still reluctant to let his precious son move out of Qianqing Palace. How can he accept letting his son live outside the palace?
Starting a family is too far away for the young prince, but he can understand his aunt. Both the Uku Mama and the Queen Mama are dissatisfied with their East Palace and are currently discussing with Khan Amma.
She didn't interrupt, she just leaned in Qingyan's arms and patiently listened to the elders' discussion.
The three concubines Hui, Yi and Rong sitting opposite felt uncomfortable. The prince was already favored by the emperor. If he could live outside the palace in the future, wouldn't it be more convenient for him to socialize with the ministers? What about the prince?
Wouldn’t his position be more stable?
Qingyan was not a fool. She knew that she had already said everything she could say. If she continued to say anything, she would really annoy Kangxi. Now she was hoping in her heart that the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager could be more forceful.
The Empress Dowager took a look at her grandson and saw that Kangxi had a bad look on his face. She sighed in her heart. The principle of far away fragrance and near smell is the same everywhere.
Baocheng was established as the crown prince too early. Now that the prince is young, Xuan Ye can tie him to his belt and carry him wherever he goes. But when the prince gets married and has a son in the future, Xuan Ye will still be so strict.
Wouldn't it drive this child crazy sooner or later?
Little Hesheli took this into account. She also made up her mind and decided to try her best to help Baocheng loosen some of his restraints while she was still alive. Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager's tone also changed.
He became more determined and said with finality:
"Xuan Ye, the Ai family feels that the place where the prince lives cannot be inferior to that of his brothers, so the backyard of Yuqing Palace will be converted into several large houses as you said. The prince will live in Yuqing Palace before he gets married.
After getting married, he moved to live outside the palace like his brothers."
"From now on, use Yuqing Palace as the place where Baocheng studies and works. If you miss your grandson or granddaughter, let Baocheng and the Crown Princess take their children to Yuqing Palace to stay for a few days."
"The Ai family doesn't have a few more years to live. If there is no money in the national treasury or the internal treasury, then use the Ai family's dowry to build the Prince's Mansion."
"Mother Huang!" Kangxi watched the Queen Mother finish these words and began to close her eyes to rest, obviously not wanting to listen to his words anymore.
He felt a little depressed, but his own royal mother-in-law had already told her about the dowry. What else could he, a grandson, say?
I had no choice but to agree humbly:
"I will naturally pay for the Prince's Mansion in Baocheng. How can I ask for your money? My grandson will do as you say."
"The emperor is really a kind father!" Seeing that the problem was solved, Qingyan quickly reached out and patted Yinreng's little hand, praising Kangxi generously.
The little prince also understood at this time that he would have a place to live in and outside the palace in the future. He hurriedly slid off his aunt's lap, and then went to Kangxi, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager respectfully.
A gift to express gratitude.
Kangxi was still a little angry at first, feeling that he was being persecuted, but seeing his son wearing the white jade crown in front of him so well-behaved and sensible, he also felt a little aggrieved by letting his son live in the small Yuqing Palace.
That's all, he was his son after all. Kangxi comforted himself in his heart, and at the same time decided to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to build the Prince's Palace on the nearest land around the Forbidden City.
Yi Bin usually thinks that she is a eloquent person, but today she saw Concubine Jing planning a "Prince's Mansion" for the Crown Prince with her clever words. Although Concubine Jing's words were very vulgar, she couldn't help but straighten out.
Bai, it works!
Originally, she was dissatisfied with Concubine Jing because of the previous "grounding", but now she is a little lucky that she didn't even think about talking to her, otherwise she had a hunch that she would definitely be punished more seriously. Hui Bin and Rong
The concubine looked at Qingyan with very complicated expressions. They both had children, so they really didn't understand Concubine Jing's thoughts.
Although the fourth elder brother is not the biological son of the imperial concubine, the jade certificate has been recorded in the name of the little Hesheli family. Is it possible that the relationship between mother and son is not as close as that of the nephew?
They have been sleeping with each other for a long time, so they naturally know the emperor better. If the Empress Dowager had not made the final decision on this matter today, Concubine Jing alone would not be able to influence the emperor no matter what.
If you accidentally say something wrong during this process, you may even fall out of favor. Ask yourself, if it were them, they would never do what Concubine Jing did, and they would also think that this person is a bit stupid.
Silly, taking the little prince too seriously...
No matter what these adults think, in the eyes of a few children, it seems that the elders' matters have been discussed.
Xiaosi had also finished the two pieces of honey hawthorn cake, and his belly was bulging. He turned his little head around and saw that no one spoke anymore, so he burped, raised his little hands and made a milking sound.
Said angrily:
"Uh, Liang, let, Da, Hu, Zi, handle, Sisi, Ye, Hua, down, come on!"
Yin Xiaozhen's sweet voice broke the adults' thoughts and attracted everyone's attention to him.
The Empress Dowager also intended to liven up the atmosphere again, so she stretched out her hand and rubbed Yin Xiaozhen's buns kindly, and said with a smile: "What Xiaosi said makes sense, this lotus dress is so beautiful, it should be Nan Ai's."
Please draw it as well."
Xiaosi raised his head and looked at Qiqige. Although he could not understand the Queen Mother's words, he could feel that Queen Mother's tone was happy.
"Why does Xiaosi want to draw himself?"
The Empress Dowager felt that her little great-grandson was quite interesting. Now that she had solved the problem of the Prince's East Palace, she also had the idea of teasing Xiaosi.
Yin Xiaozhen tilted his little head and looked at the Queen Mother in confusion. He thought why would Mother Ukumar ask such a simple question?
However, Xiaosi was a good boy who was filial and polite, so he obediently explained to the Empress Dowager:
"Four-four, I want to hang my portrait on the bed, which is too papery."
"Little four is too papery and my favorite."
"Like this, every day, the paper is too loud. As soon as I open my eyes, I can see more than four or four. I am so happy!"
"Hahahahahaha", the Queen Mother was so amused after hearing Xiaosi's words, she felt that this confident little kid was really funny.
The little prince clearly said that his favorite brother was Xiaosi, but this little guy cut off the back part and said that he was "the prince's favorite".
When Kangxi heard his youngest son's words, he also tilted his head and glanced at Qingyan again. He felt that he was really a child that little Hesheli could raise. He was so unreserved and spent the whole day talking about "love" and "no".
"Love" is on the lips.
However, he did not disappoint Xiaosi and turned his attention to the "big beard".
After seeing the emperor's eyes, Nan Huairen hurriedly leaned over and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen's paints and brushes are all carried in the box. Right now, there happens to be a blank scroll that can be used to paint a portrait of the fourth elder brother."
Kangxi didn't expect such a coincidence, so he nodded and said:
"I'm only going to draw Xiao Si. I'm afraid Ke Jing will lose his temper when I see him in the future, so I'll just draw them both together and hang them in Baocheng's room."
"No, yes!" Yin Xiaozhen hurriedly opened his eyes wide, shaking the lotus on his curly hair, and loudly resisted entering the painting with his fourth sister.
Qingyan just turned her head away and rolled her eyes. She felt that Kangxi was really promising, and she would use other methods to bully her son.
But his little arms still couldn't twist his thighs. Half an hour later, Nan Huairen quickly finished the sketch.
After the scroll was hung up, everyone saw a small-breasted dumpling wearing a lotus dress with a stinky face and a cool expression sitting cross-legged on the carpet, while on the other side of him lay a girl with bright almond eyes and a smile. A little girl with a few baby teeth.
There is also a line of small characters written on the left side of the small milk dumpling: "Aixinjueluo Yinzhen".
On the right side of the little girl is written: "Aisin Gioro Moyali".
Yin Xiaozhen even shouted before: "There can't be two mistresses in the same palace."
Now I see two "Four Fours" in one painting. As one of the parties involved, Yin Xiaozhen looked like an eggplant beaten by frost. He hung his little head on E Niang's shoulder, feeling in his heart I no longer love this painting.
However, the painting was indeed very beautiful, and the little prince was even more satisfied. When he left Cining Palace with Khan Amma, he kept urging Nan Huairen to color the painting quickly and frame it in a glass frame. So that it can be sent to the Qianqing Palace...
The sad Xiao Si once again deeply realized the words he heard from E Niang before: The joys and sorrows among human beings are never the same... The little girl with bright almond eyes and a smile that showed a few small deciduous teeth.
