Qingyan squinted her eyes and said nothing. After learning from Bai Lu that He Zhuer was Liang Jiugong's apprentice, Qingyan knew that the person behind him was Kangxi and not the Empress Dowager.
Kangxi had already punished him, and now he did not have the position to punish the chief eunuch around Yinreng.
Could it be that what she was angry about was: "Will there be scars?"
What she was obviously angry about was that, as the crown prince, and with a dozen or so slaves serving him, Yinreng would be injured under their noses.
Yinreng looked at He Zhu'er who was kneeling on the ground, and then at the angry Qingyan. He hurriedly put his small arms around Qingyan's neck and said: "Auntie, don't be angry. Don't go to Tong Niangniang.
It’s done, it’s guaranteed, it won’t hurt.”
"Auntie, no, no wonder, Zhuzhu. He's not here."
Yinreng knew that because he was injured, Khan Ama spanked everyone around him. The spanking was very painful.
Cubs are actually very sensitive to adults' emotional changes.
He could feel that his aunt was not in a good mood right now, so he pulled Qingyan's sleeves and pointed at He Zhuer who was kneeling on the ground with his little finger.
Hearing the young prince's plea to him, He Zhuer felt that he had seriously neglected his duties this time.
Because of this incident, the emperor changed most of the servants serving the prince.
From now on, he will only obey the orders of the young prince. Whenever the young prince does not speak, he will never leave His Highness's side again...
·
"You should get up first."
Hearing that Concubine Hesheli no longer blamed herself, He Zhuer couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and stood up obediently.
Qingyan ignored Xiao Naituan. She couldn't remember for a moment which figure in history the "Tong Niangniang" Yinreng mentioned was.
He simply asked directly: "Who is living in Chengqian Palace now?"
"My master, she is the eldest daughter of Master Tong Guowei, Concubine Tong, who just entered the palace not long ago."
"Concubine Tong? My eldest cousin?"
Seeing Qingyan's surprised look, He Zhuer kindly explained to her in detail the current situation of the newly promoted concubines in the palace.
Qingyan sat on a chair, feeling a little numb as she listened to He Zhuer and Bai Lu, who had returned from outside, singing and talking about the latest situation in the palace.
Nowadays, she can barely match the names of many women in Kangxi's harem with historical figures based on the memories of her previous life.
She also knew that the adoptive mother of Emperor Yongzheng in history, the future imperial concubine Tong Jia, and empress Xiao Yiren were the daughters of her third uncle Tong Guowei.
But the third uncle had several daughters, and she originally thought that this person would be her second cousin who was similar in age to her, because when she was at home, she had vaguely heard that the Tong family had released the name "Aunt Xiao" to the outside world.
At that time, she accidentally heard E Niang mention it at the dinner table: Compared with her eldest cousin who was a legitimate daughter, her second cousin who was only one year older than her and who was born as a concubine actually looked more like her aunt, Empress Xiaokangzhang.
.
Unexpectedly, the person who finally entered the palace after going around in circles was the eldest cousin who looked down on me all day long for being idle and unladylike!
Thinking of her extremely snobbish third aunt, Qingyan felt extremely sad.
She didn't know much about Empress Xiao Yiren in history, except that she was Kangxi's favorite.
But now that she was in the presence of her eldest cousin, she couldn't help but quickly dismiss the description of Queen Xiao Yiren in her head.
Forget it, forget it, it’s better not to think about it. You and your eldest cousin are not the same kind of people at all. It’s better for them to have less contact in the future and let each of you be beautiful in this harem!
·
Listening to the two people in front of her, it was as if they were having a cross talk. Bai Lu had a rich expression and her little mouth was making jokes, while He Zhuer stood beside him and acted as a competent compliment, either agreeing or supplementing.
Qingyan couldn't help but feel that it was a pity. If these two people took off their professional uniforms in the Forbidden City and went to Tianqiao to form a storytelling group, they might be able to make money to support themselves.
As she listened, she didn't even know what to say about Kangxi.
Kangxi had just beheaded a former imperial kitchen manager, but met the old man's granddaughter who was an official in the Cining Palace.
I felt that that woman was not only petty and gentle, but even though she was a servant, she also knew some Chinese studies and had a good temperament.
This big pig's hooves took the person to the Qianqing Palace to sleep, and then after finishing the matter, he arranged to stay in the palace of his most beloved direct cousin, her eldest cousin Tong Yurou.
Not only do the two have very different family backgrounds, but they even have very different looks, but their temperaments and dressing styles are very similar.
Moreover, the official lady sometimes went to bed more often than her eldest cousin.
There are people in this palace who are laughing at me, and I don’t know who is whose substitute?
But there is no doubt that this shows one thing: the emperor loves women who understand Sinology, because these two people also set off a fanatical trend of concubines reading poetry in the harem.
·
The more Qingyan listened to their descriptions, the more she felt that the character of the official woman they mentioned sounded so familiar.
"Is that official girl's surname still Wu Ya?"
Qingyan held Yinreng in her arms, turned around and walked towards the Bogu rack, and asked.
Although He Zhuer didn't know how Qingyan knew the surname of the official woman, he still nodded.
Bai Lu looked excited: "Master, when you were unconscious, could you hear what the slave said to you?"
Qingyan's expression was a little weird for a moment, but her caring family had already found a patch for her, why didn't she quickly fix her language loopholes?
"That's right, I can hear some." She just made a bold guess from He Zhuer's description.
After all, Yongzheng's adoptive mother has appeared, so his biological mother must not be far away.
"That means that there are now two concubines in Chengqian Palace, Concubine Tong and Concubine Wu Ya?"
Qingyan searched for a long time and finally saw the long box she was looking for.
"My master, I thought wrong. Wu Ya is still an official daughter, and the emperor only gave her some rewards after she slept with her."
He Zhuer said with some embarrassment.
Qingyan was stunned. Historically, the De concubine Wu Ya was the same as the earlier Rong concubine Ma Jia, who also gave birth to six children in succession.
In ten years, Kangxi gave birth to three sons and three daughters. Fortunately, the two sons were very promising. Their daughter, Princess Wen Xian, was still raised by the Empress Dowager. She was extremely favored and even married back to her mother's clan when she grew up.
The Tong family was the only princess in the Kangxi Dynasty who stayed in the capital without care. Even her favorite son, the Fourteenth Prince, was only born when she was nearly thirty years old.
This age was still very young at the end of the world, but in the Qing Dynasty at that time, she was already old enough to be a grandmother.
From this we can see how much Kangxi loved her.
And listening to their descriptions, in this time and space, Kang Da Zhu Tu Zi Xi should also like her very much. Why would he be so stingy that he would not even give her the position of a concubine?
·
Moreover, to be honest, the status of an official woman was indeed quite embarrassing in the early years of the Qing Dynasty when the Manchus had just entered the customs.
Before entering the customs, this official woman may simply refer to the palace maid. She usually only does physical activities such as moving flowers and weeding, and does not need to sleep.
But now her identity is somewhere between a concubine and a palace maid.
It can be said that it was an extremely miserable existence in this Qing palace. When the emperor thought of him, he fell asleep, but after finishing the work, he still swept the palace maid.
To say that the master is not the master, and to say that the palace maid is out of the question is to be ostracized by all the women in the harem.
And now this famous concubine in history is working as an official woman.
In fact, most of what she knew about De Fei came from the Qing Dynasty novels she had read during the apocalypse.
Eight of the ten Qing Dynasty novels portray this person as a "extremely partial and scheming" humble beloved concubine who was born as a slave, but this is a character that many readers dislike.
·
Once in her previous life, when she was forming a team to do a mission outside the base, she accidentally met an interesting male partner.
That man was a standard Fourth Master Party member. During his breaks on missions, he told himself many things about the iron-blooded and diligent Emperor Yongzheng.
The one that gets the most complaints is the series of scandalous actions his biological mother, Concubine Wu Yashi, made when Yongzheng ascended the throne.
for example:
He once said in public: "My son is appointed to the throne, which is not what I dreamed of1."
Still unwilling to accept Yongzheng's visit, refused to be granted a title, refused to move to the palace, and made trouble for his youngest son to return to Beijing, and stayed in Yonghe Palace until his death...
All in all, she is a woman who is extremely partial to her younger son.
·
At that time, Qingyan guessed that in the Qing harem at that time, as long as there was a chance, all the concubines in this harem would hope that their son would eventually become the world's most powerful person.
The reason why she was afraid of her as a virtuous concubine was because she didn't expect that the prince who would finally ascend the throne would be the child crawling out of her belly.
It's just that the person she's looking forward to is not the fourth prince, but her favorite fourteenth prince.
Although she knows that there are many partial parents in this world, both ancient and modern.
After all, ten fingers have different lengths, and the relationship between people comes from getting along.
Compared with the eldest son who has not been raised under his knees since childhood, it is normal for parents to prefer raising and doting on their younger son who has grown up, right?
She understands the principle of "Don't persuade others to do good things before they have suffered".
Perhaps something happened between this mother and son in history that future generations cannot deduce from the remaining historical data, which led to such a quarrel in the end.
The real Concubine De is also a living three-dimensional person, and may not be as miserable as described in most literary works.
But people's emotions and preferences are out of control.
She learned a lot about Yongzheng from her partner. She knew about this iron-blooded emperor who had only reigned for thirteen years, but during his reign, he purged officials, worked diligently, and did many good things for the people.
The favorability rating is quite high.
Even his younger brother, General Wang Sisi, who was always at odds with him, looked at with admiration.
But there was nothing she could do, she just couldn't appreciate their biological mother, Concubine De.
Therefore, now she listens to He Zhuer saying "Wu Ya clan".
It made me feel uncomfortable all over, and I wanted him to shut up forcibly!
·
After all, my partner at the time told me that the then Imperial Concubine Tong Jia "raised many children with great kindness and diligence" 2.
Not only did she take away the eldest son of Concubine De, this also shows from the side that the love that the young Emperor Yongzheng enjoyed from his adoptive mother was not a unique one, but one of several.
And that Concubine De was biased even by history.
As a nanny, she really couldn't like this person...
·
"Master, I heard that there was a rumor in the palace that this girl Wuya was originally going to be rewarded with the title of concubine, but because she, Mafa Wuya Esen, was beheaded by the emperor in the name of a sinner last year, so she
I don’t have the status.”
Qingyan looked at Bai Lu, who had a fleshy face, acting as a wise strategist, and analyzed herself seriously.
I just think this girl is so silly and cute.
Nowadays, her status is still that of a low-ranking concubine, and she is not the concubine of the lord of the palace. Doesn't it all depend on Kangxi's own wishes whether she is willing to give the concubine position to others?
If the emperor is willing, let alone the granddaughter of a sinner, he can hold her to a high position even if she is the daughter of a sinner.
"Little Master, I'm afraid a master like you doesn't know that the gossips of the slaves are the fastest in this palace. I heard that the life of Miss Wuya in Chengqian Palace is very difficult now. In this palace,
The mistresses ostracized her because she was the granddaughter of a sinner and did not want to regard her as the emperor's woman, and the maids also ostracized her because she was favored by the emperor and received rewards from time to time." He.
Zhu'er added on the side.
Qingyan couldn't help but sigh, with such a temperament that could endure other people's suffering, no wonder she was the final winner.
But she always felt that something was strange about this matter. Kangxi's behavior was not at all like his attitude toward his future beloved concubine, okay?
·
Qingyan is a novice in palace fighting, and she doesn't want to know how Kangxi and Wu Yashi get along harmoniously.
She just wanted to know that even after they talked so much, they still didn't get to the point.
"Let's not talk about anything else, how did His Highness get injured?"
Qingyan stared at He Zhuer, and Bai Lu also turned to look at the person beside her.
"A few days ago, the emperor took the prince to play with Concubine Tong in the Chengqian Palace, but as soon as they arrived there, news came out that the girl Wuya who lived in the side hall was sick."
He Zhuer couldn't help but feel inexplicably guilty when he saw Qingyan holding Yinreng in her arms, one big and one small staring at him with two pairs of somewhat similar big eyes.
