Chapter 144 (1)
Shujia likes the environment of Changchun Garden, strictly speaking, coming here is more worry-free than living in the Forbidden City.The living environment is good, the living standard has not declined, and the most important thing is that there are few people!Every time I go back, I invite you to chat, and you don't need to drive to the top level to see all directions and listen to all directions. There are only a few people who chat.
At the beginning of the construction of Changchun Garden, it was for the royal family to escape the summer and relax without going too far.Around this theme, it uses the Li Garden in the former Ming Dynasty, which itself is a place that tends to be a holiday villa.Although there are places like Tanningju to listen to the government, the rest of the places still focus on the above purposes.
Therefore, one of the major functions of Changchun Garden is entertainment and leisure, not residence, especially its living area.The living area is much larger than the working area. There are mountains, trees, pavilions, and flowers, mainly for viewing. Therefore, there are not as many houses for living as in the Forbidden City.
The garden was completed in the 29th year of Kangxi, and the construction started even earlier. At that time, the royal population was much smaller than it is now.Kangxi probably didn't expect to have so many sons who tormented him later, marrying in this bunch of daughter-in-laws who looked like ladies and grotesque inside, not to mention his ever-growing harem.
There are many people and few places, one consequence is that not everyone can come to this place.Looking at the gentle and gentle Changchun Garden with green trees and clear water, it is actually more difficult to break into than the magnificent and solemn Forbidden City with golden walls.
It was only this year that the Crown Princess had the opportunity to come with the Crown Prince. Of course, she had enough qualifications before, but she had to stay in the Forbidden City if she was involved in something.
Not all of Kangxi’s sons can come to stay with them. For older comrades who have already divided the government, I’m sorry, but it’s really unkind of you to come and live here after they’ve all paid for you to build a house!Come to work every morning, and go back after get off work!What?Where have you lived before?You haven't married a wife before!Naturally, the Fujins were not allowed to live in except when they could come to greet the Empress Dowager.
Only a few young elder brothers who have not yet married Fujin were packed together and placed in the West Garden. Nine elder brothers, ten elder brothers, twelve elder brothers, thirteen elder brothers, fourteen elder brothers, fifteen elder brothers, I still have to study and be tested every day.Hong Yang and Hong Xi study with these uncles every day.The sixteenth elder brother and the seventeenth elder brother were not yet old enough to go to school, so they were placed in the Forbidden City where they were used to living.
The concubines in the harem should be sorted according to their status, degree of favor, and whether they want to stay to watch the house and deal with other things. The concubine and the Guerjia family who are treated equally with the concubine Wang.
However, the son followed Concubine De, but stayed in the palace to preside over the palace affairs with Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui.Concubine Rong is implicated by her son and she is not too young. Concubine De belongs to get ready to get along with her daughter more and then make various preparations for the fifth princess' wedding in September. Concubine Hui is not her turn this time.However, I believe that Kangxi knew well, and there must be other compensations.
There are only a few people who live in the master, and the uncles hardly see each other. Unless something important happens in Kangxi, they don’t see each other at all. There are only a few elders in name. Put time and energy.
What's more, the two side rooms of her house are very well-behaved now, all the Crown Princess has to do is talk to a few people.
"I'm afraid the project in the East Palace is almost finished?" It was Concubine Yi who spoke, and she was straightforward and well-informed.
The empress dowager was interested in this topic: "So, you are going to move to a new house soon? Is it time? Why don't I know?"
Shujia said: "I'll tell you later that we have to wait for a while, even making fans and repairing gardens, no matter what, it will be the end of summer."
Concubine Wang and the Guerjia family were listening most of the time, although they were not formally canonized, they were already paid. When they came to Changchun Garden, a place with few people, they also got a stool to sit on.Sitting upright, the corners of the mouth are slightly upturned, and the eyes are soft, holding the handkerchief with hands folded on the knees, making a perfect set board.
Wang Pinhua was more thoughtful. As a Han Chinese, she entered the harem of the Qing Dynasty, and Manchu language was already very difficult for her, and she met a mother-in-law who was not good at Chinese and was the most fluent in Mongolian.
Fortunately, when she entered the palace, she was young and her brain was at a good stage, and Kangxi doted on her more, so she assigned a court lady who was fluent in both Chinese and Chinese to learn from her...but Mongolian language had to be figured out by herself.Concubine Wang was [-] or [-] years old when she entered the palace, so learning a new language is fine, adding another Mongolian language... I really want to die!
The hard-working study life of the crown princess when she first traveled here, is now repeated on the king's concubine even more tragically!The crown princess was a soul wearer back then, and she was a baby in terms of hardware, so it was much easier to learn.
When the prince crossed over, he lived in his own home, and he was a daughter of his own daughter. The people who could control her were her relatives, who naturally loved her. Basically, as long as she didn't have convulsions, she was a protagonist.You don't have to worry about food and clothing, don't worry about being hated or tripped up, just complain, act cute, and learn ancient culture.Anyway, she is still young, and it is embarrassing to say that she is not standard.
Here, Concubine Wang lives in someone else's house and is a concubine without a formal title. Those who can control her in the harem are favored and favored because of her arrival. Basically, as long as she doesn't behave a little better, she is a life-seeker. .Worried about being rejected and underestimated, trembling, walking on thin ice, and trying to improve my language skills.If you don't learn well, you will be laughed at.
People who are a little weaker in heart have already died of melancholy!She survived.Manchu is learned from court ladies, and Mongolian has to be learned by listening!Analyze bit by bit, when you encounter something you don’t understand, ask a court lady who can say a few words, and ask the emperor when the card is turned over.
The emperor is not a full-time teacher, and patient education can only happen between the emperor and the prince.Wang Pin does not have a Mongolian language teacher, so she can only rely on a little time every day to accumulate.Over the years, I can understand the basic conversations, but I still can't speak well, so I have to listen as carefully as possible.
Well, her efforts were not in vain.Kangxi admired her intentions quite a lot, and would give her some pointers, making her feel more and more fond of her.With the grace and the arrival of her son, she has slowly gained a firm foothold, and now she can sit here and listen to the divine speeches of all parties.
Concubine Tong said to the princess: "It's a great housewarming, but it's a pity that I can't go to ask for a glass of wedding wine."
The crown princess smiled and said: "I am overjoyed when I canonize the concubine, but I can go and ask for a glass of wedding wine. How about we drink two more glasses and make up for it? The concubine is overjoyed."
Concubine Tong pointed at the Crown Princess and smiled at the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yi, and said, "Look, I wanted to ask her to give it to me because I wanted to please the wedding wine. Not only did I have to invite her, I also invited It's double. Besides, I'm not the only one who likes it, isn't this one too?"
The one mentioned by Concubine Tong is the Guerjia family in the set panel duo.
Mrs. Guarjia hurriedly said, "I'm really happy, but I'm not as good as you. I'm glad you spent a little more." As they spoke, their smiles deepened.
The empress dowager said strangely: "How do I remember that there is another who is going to be promoted?"
Concubine Yi said: "It's Mrs. Wei from Zhongcui Palace."
Just like when the princes were entrusted, the news of this kind of concubine canonization has also been spread long ago.Briefing, preparation of all kinds of clothes, paving the palace, ceremonial guards, selection and addition of maids to serve... Kangxi is also a solid supporter of group weddings, and the movement is getting bigger and bigger.
Based on the analysis of a series of situations such as court clothes, auspicious clothes, shop palaces, and maids prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, this time a total of one imperial concubine and two concubines were conferred.The imperial concubine is the Tong Jia family, and the concubines are the Guerjia family and the Wei family.The first two are a mixture of family background and love, and the latter, at present, is mostly due to the birth of a good son.
Wang Pin held back her energy, feeling a little aggrieved in her stomach.Tong Jia's family is like a big mountain, which can't breathe under the pressure of others; Guerjia's family entered the palace later than her, never gave birth to a son, and they are similar in terms of doting.In terms of hard work, she has worked much harder than the above two. In terms of results, she has produced two fruits. Those two are still flower bones, but they are not as good as others. Tong Jia, who entered the palace earlier than her, is a noble concubine. The Guarjia family she entered late is also a concubine.
Such success cannot be imitated.
Fortunately, Wei gave her hope.Now that she has a son, according to Kangxi's education method, it can't be broken. She just has to wait until her son grows up and is promising, and she can be regarded as earning a living.The premise is that the son grows up smoothly, don't be like Concubine Rong, who has more births and fewer lives.At the same time, the princess in front of me can't be offended, this is the future proprietress.
The concubine had the same idea as her. In the Kangxi harem present, there is no official letter of appointment for the concubine Wang.Entered the palace earlier than the Guarjia family, and gave birth to a son. What happened?Still a 'Concubine Wang' who is neither embarrassed nor embarrassed.But Wei Shi finally got his head around it, seeing that Wang Concubine could only follow Wei Shi's old path.
A woman still has to rely on her son, her husband, etc. It's really unreliable!When I met Kangxi like XXOO, I relied on my feelings, and when I was promoted, my rationality returned. I really wish I had a father who is Li Gang and a son with five bars!At least one of these two items is required to have a hot meal in Kangxi's harem.
Li Jia's thoughts at this time were exactly the same as those of these two. She had heard such gossip before, but it was not as intuitive and impactful as it is now.Her family background is not bad, but it is incomparable with big families like Tong Jia's and Guerjia's. It's better to rely on her son!
Li Jia's heart is full of sorrow, and she has to rely on her son!You have to come out to rely on Mr.
The empress dowager was still there and asked Concubine Yi, ignorant of the sufferings of the world: "Is it the eighth mother? She is a blessed one, and she gave birth to a good son."
Concubine Yi already regretted not changing the topic. She is a concubine, equal to Hui, Rong and De, and has the highest official title in the palace.Regardless of whether Concubine Tong had hidden herself as the head of the Six Palaces before, Concubine Tong did not have an official title at that time.It's not that Concubine Yi never laughed at Concubine Tong when there was no one around. Looking at the scenery, everything is false without canonization.
It's all right now, people have come to do it, and they have carved nine lines directly from the whiteboard!Beeping and starting to emit golden light in all directions, she was short of giving birth to a son herself.
Concubine Yi can't change this reality, and she doesn't want to bring it up to embarrass herself, right?Just like Wang Concubine, when you meet a person who is better than you in everything but a good family background, you come to jump in line, and he cuts in front of you, are you upset?
She didn't discuss the question asked by the empress dowager, she simply pointed the topic to the eighth elder brother: "No, she is blessed with children and grandchildren."
This... pierced Concubine Tong's heart a bit, and Guerjia's smile hardened.
The empress dowager continued to attack from all directions, from multiple angles, without discrimination. This time it was Concubine Yi who was attacked, and she was held back by the empress dowager: "I remember the old couple have been here for two years? Haven't heard anything yet?" ?”
Depend on!I can't talk to you today!
Shujia said: "You also said that they have only been two years old, and they are all young people. The eighth elder brother has a new job, so he is busy. Sooner or later, there will be."
Concubine Yi finally pulled out, watching the crown princess and the empress dowager, from the new errand of the eighth elder brother, to how cute the eight blessings are: "She and the fourth daughter-in-law are neighbors, and together they are urging my grandfather to go Let's see how the Fifth Princess' mansion is doing."
The fifth princess is a granddaughter whom the empress dowager cares about: "Yes, I know about this matter. It was your idea when you were chatting?" See, she only remembers the people she cares about.
"I was just talking nonsense. At that time, the third daughter-in-law was reluctant to part with the fifth princess, and finally asked the fourth elder brother to snatch her away."
Crooked building crooked building.
In Mangongli, the brainwaves of both of you are at the same frequency.Yifei thought brokenly.If this development continues, the Crown Princess will be another Empress Dowager decades later if she can live that long.
A trip to greet peace is tantamount to a spiritual torture.
Both Li Jia's and Li Jia's felt this way, it was nothing more than showing how stable the crown princess's position was, and contrasting how hard she was.If you want to stand up, you have to look at these role models in front of you. Without a reliable family background, it is useless to be loved. To have a son, you have to wait for the son to grow up. Do you want to stand up before then?No way!It's better to stay honest and live in the hope that your son will be promising.
It's not like I haven't had this kind of experience before, but at that time, the concubines and Fujin gathered together in a room, and the feeling was not so strong.If the background sound is a bunch of people chattering when you sleep, and you can’t tell the difference between east, west, and north, you will fall asleep. If there are only two people gossiping by your ears, it’s hard not to wake up.
The feeling of fate has never been so strong.
