Chapter 1584 Those Princesses (Walling for Monthly Tickets)
A wise daughter is better than a mother.
Mrs. Bo and Shu Shu are not called mother and daughter, but they are actually mother and daughter.
There's obviously something going on here.
In front of the children, Mrs. Bo didn't ask in a hurry.
Fengsheng also hugged her, but Shushu couldn't hold it in anymore and let the children play "rocking horse".
There was no one else in sight.
She herself mentioned Wu Fujin's arrival to Mrs. Bo and said: "Is she the sister-in-law, or am I the sister-in-law? If you really don't feel at ease, what's the difficulty in going to the Queen Mother to ask for an accurate answer? Even if you don't dare to go, you can't bear it any longer.
Just wait and see what's going on at Sanbeile Mansion, the second elder brother over there is about to enter school..."
"But she said it in front of me. I can't give her a guarantee..."
Mrs. Bo frowned when she heard this and said: "Concern makes you confused. Now the emperor pays more attention to the legitimate concubine. Not to mention the eldest son of the concubine who is just an outlier, even the elder brother born to Xifu Jin is no longer a legitimate descendant. He has become a side descendant, and he has become more and more mature.
But the legitimate son will go."
Shu Shu was also a little disappointed and said: "Perhaps it's the fragrance far away and the smell close to me. I looked at her earlier and acted reasonably. Now that she has a child, she seems to have more confidence. The same prince, Fujin, still expects me to charge into battle for her."
No? It’s better to be polite to each other in the future.”
The uncle said: "Don't say these things in front of Brother Jiu. Just know what you have in mind. There is no need to show it in front of others."
Shu Shu nodded and said: "Well, what I won't say is just to say a few words in front of Ah Mou."
The uncle said: "A woman grows up in a house, and when she gets married, she is confined to the house. Naturally, she only cares about her own one-third of an acre of land. You have always been close and generous to your sister-in-law. After coming and going, she will get used to your thoughtfulness and conduct.
That's why there was a mistake. If you pick it up, she will naturally be polite."
Shu Shu reflected on herself and said: "I am also impatient. Otherwise, whether it is the Three Fortunes or the Five Fortunes, it would be easy to pretend to be false, but it would be annoying..."
Shu Shu feels that she is still a snobbery at heart.
I am willing to pretend to be good in front of my elders, but among my peers, I am very selfish and don't like to suffer losses anyway.
The uncle said: "As I said before, you don't have to seek perfection in everything."
After complaining privately to Mrs. Bo, Shu Shu let the matter go.
Among the ten princes who are getting married, except for the 12th prince and the 13th prince, all of them have been divided into inmates.
The Ninth Prince and the Twelfth Prince did not publicize the selection of escort girls to the outside world, but when the Ministry of Internal Affairs arranged manpower to verify the selected girls, the news spread immediately.
The Eight Flags Draft is a national policy.
In addition to the eldest daughter, the Jueluo daughter, the purple-belted children who have been given grace, and the daughters of descendants, all other eligible girls must participate in the election.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs' three-flag draft should be like this.
It's just that there are a lot of official women who need to work in the palace, and usually there are more women serving as servants in the inner court.
Therefore, the "small election" of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not mandatory.
People with certain connections either asked to be exempted from selection, or they delayed their age and were not sent to the palace.
Most palace maids are like Walnuts, who come from poor families to save money for their future, or are like Gingguo, who have been ordinary people for generations and have no chance of finding a career.
The main thing is to voluntarily sign up to stand for election.
The total number of officials and women in the palace is about 300, and every year at the end of the year, 20 to 30 people are released. It is these people who need to be replaced.
Naturally, the Ministry of Internal Affairs does not want to offend anyone, so it only requires those who are unwilling to stand for election.
This time, following the example of the Eight Banners Draft, all the beauties of the right age were registered as candidates, so everyone knew that the ones selected were not palace maids.
On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, when Prince Fujin came to Nantou for a banquet, they all looked at Shu Shu and wanted to get information from her.
Shu Shu said: "Our master also heard about it later. There is a new manager in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Manager Ma is also responsible for this draft. He only knows that ten people have to be selected..."
Everyone knows about Ma Qi's resignation as general manager, and also knows that the new general manager is Ma Qi's brother and the uncle of Twelve Fujin.
But at this time, no one asked Twelve Fujin specifically.
The Twelve Fujins lived in the palace and were not as well informed as the others.
Sanfujin clicked his tongue and said, "It's the same as the time in the thirty-fourth year. Ten people were selected at the beginning of that year and rewarded to the elder brother, one from Prince Zhi, one from our father, and two each from the fourth and fifth brothers.
, the four eighth princes..."
Among the two people the fifth elder brother got, one was Liu Gege who was sent to Nanyuan, who was the eldest son of the fifth elder brother and the mother of the eldest daughter; the other was Guarjia, who gave birth to the third elder brother of the fifth elder brother.
The other beauties in the same batch were silent.
A dozen sisters-in-law were sitting on the left and right.
When Qi Fujin heard this, he felt uncomfortable on behalf of his seventh brother.
Apart from the prince, there are only six elder brothers. Five of them were rewarded, and only the seventh master was rewarded.
Although I also rewarded Master Qi with two rewards later, I didn't think about it carefully.
Is this considered a transition or not?
He is also a prince, and even if there are shortcomings, it is not the seventh master's fault.
Thirteen Fujin sat in the last seat, feeling uneasy.
In the thirty-fourth year, the eighth prince was fifteen years old and the favored youngest son of the emperor...
Nowadays, the thirteenth elder brother is the favored youngest son of the emperor...
It’s not really a big favor, is it?!
Si Fujin said calmly: "It's all the Emperor's grace."
She gave birth to two sons and was not worried about the princess being given to her by the palace.
Rather than letting Li Gege stand out, Sifujin would rather have a few newcomers and let a hundred flowers bloom.
Wu Fujin glanced at Shu Shu and Shi Fujin. There were many inner courtyards, princesses, concubines, and general rooms of each prince's family.
Even the 12th and 13th elder brothers, who just got married, were each given two princesses after their engagement last year.
On the other hand, the Ninth Prince's Mansion and the Tenth Prince's Mansion only have one character.
I don’t know if they will be supplied this time...
This is a small banquet for Dafujin. He is inviting his sister-in-law, so naturally he cannot leave the Babeile Mansion.
Ba Fujin "reported his illness" to the outside world. When the post was posted, it was Fu Cha and Fu Jin who came forward.
The seat of Fu Cha and Fu Jin is not between the Seventh Fu Jin and Shu Shu, but according to the rank of the thirteenth Fu Jin.
For this reason, Shu Shu and Qi Fujin no longer sat next to each other, but sat opposite Qi Fujin, third to the west.
The first one of Shu Shu is the Five Fortune Jin, and the lower one is the Seven Fortune Jin.
Qi Fujin glanced at Shu Shu, saying he was too far away to talk.
Shi Fujin asked curiously: "Then this batch is specially selected. How is it different from ordinary palace maids? Should it be good-looking? Then who picks it..."
Shu Shu said: "The origin is limited, and girls from families above the seventh rank are selected. The palace has regulations for the first selection. At the end, it may be the concubines who choose it, or something else, I don't know."
When these words came out, everyone knew what was going on.
This choice is not only for the prince's concubine, but also for the emperor's grandson's mother, so she would choose from a decent family.
Wufujin looked calm on his face, but there was a prick in his heart.
A family of seven grades or above.
If her family hadn't been divided and was of the second rank, judging from her Ama's side, she would have been in the seventh rank when she was said to be the prince's legitimate son, Fujin.
Twelve Fujin sat under Shu Shu, not worried about his elder brother entering.
There are only more than twenty rooms in the elder brother's house, and there are already two rooms. They are all placed in the back room. The twelfth elder brother cannot go there, nor can he pass people to the front.
If there is another Princess, she will probably be treated in the same way.
On the other hand, the Eighth Prince was given four official daughters before he became a young man. Is this the grace of the "youngest son", or is the Eighth Prince indeed deficient? Twelve Fujin is a little worried about his sister.
Even if he takes charge of the internal affairs of the Babeile Mansion, who knows what will happen in the future. It will be troublesome if he has no biological children.
Fu Cha and Fu Jin are self-aware. Although she goes out to socialize on behalf of Ba Fu Jin, she is not his direct descendant. She just makes up for it and is decent.
As for whether to give to others this time...
Fucha and Fujin think not.
Dear Ama, you have to leave some dignity to the Eighth Prince. If there is no movement in a few years, it will be hard to say.
It was a nice little banquet, but because of the draft for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, everyone was not eating well.
Mrs. Zhang had nothing to say.
To be honest, Princess Zhijun's palace has about ten concubines, which is quite a lot of people, but the eldest brother has only one single child under his knees, which is really eye-catching.
The prince next to him, Fujin Neng, was lucky enough to be in the Zhijun Prince's Mansion. The difference was whether it was one or two.
A good Bazhen banquet, with most of it left.
Everyone lost interest in playing cards and left early.
When they returned to their elder brother's house, Qi Fujin and Shi Fujin went home respectively, changed into homely clothes, and came to Wu's House at the same time.
The two bumped into each other and smiled at each other.
Shi Fujin smiled and said: "I, Ehe, just told me about the concubine. I want to talk to Sister-in-law Jiu..."
Qi Fujin smiled and said: "I also hold back in front of others, and want to have a good talk with her..."
The two of them entered the fifth house together.
Here, Shu Shu has just freshened up.
Wu Fujin could think of only one princess in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, so naturally she also thought of this drawback.
Even if it was a fluke this time, what about next time?
They are all bad things to say.
In fact, the best solution is for her to take a few concubines for Brother Jiu and leave them there to gather the number of people.
But Shu Shu didn't want to do that.
The Seven Fortunes and the Ten Fortunes come together, so what they are talking about is naturally something special.
"Although there are still three lucky ones in our house including me and myself, Master Qi doesn't have much choice. I can't tell whether I'm looking forward to it or not..."
The Seven Fortunes of Jin Dao.
Although the imperial doctor recommended taking another pulse after the Lantern Festival, it was more than twenty days late, and he began to feel lethargic, and the slippery pulse was more obvious than before.
In front of his sister-in-law, Qi Fujin did not hide it anymore and changed into flat shoes. Everyone knew it.
Shi Fujin frowned and said: "We don't even live in the palace anymore, do you still need the emperor to take care of this? I, Ehe, asked me to choose people from among the people in the prince's palace. When the time comes, it will be easier to discipline...
"
As a result, she changed her cover from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and she was still the daughter of an official, which was inconsistent with what Ehe had told her.
Shu Shu said to Shi Fujin: "The palace gave this one. There is no choice. How does the palace choose? My brothers and sisters should listen to Master Shi. The rules of Mongolia are different from those of the Eight Banners..."
Over in Mongolia, a son is valued more than his mother, and the humbler a concubine is, the better. All concubines can be slaves. Here in the Eight Banners, it's fine for those who have distinguished themselves to be noble, but the royal family does not have such rules.
Even if it is an emperor's grandson born from a maid and concubine, he is still an emperor's grandson...
