Chapter 195 (3)
The demand for maids in this period is not particularly large. Except for Concubine Tong’s order to pick two for Yinti, the East Palace has six to eight requests. In addition, Ningshou Palace also has palace maids to be replaced.Another thing is that there are vacancies in Zhaoxiang's office and others, and they have to be filled.There is a shortage of people in these places, some are released, some are out of the palace due to illness or simply died.
Concubine Tong had to be honest when choosing maids for Ningshou Palace, but she had to be more dexterous when choosing concubines for Yinti.She has a good understanding of Kangxi's thoughts, and the person she chooses for the empress dowager must be reliable, because the empress dowager is naturally dull and easy to be fooled, so she must not let go of telling stories.As for Yinti, Kangxi probably wanted him to have something to do, not how many children he could have.
The eunuch was very depressed. In the past, he didn't need to call names. There was a shortage of people everywhere. The eunuch in charge came to pick and choose, and led people away.Fortunately, he had to sign up one by one, and he had to endure a lot of hard work for nothing.
Concubine Tong is looking at people, and Shujia is also looking at people. When you meet Zhengbaiqi, you should be more careful, write down the secrets of the younger ones, and compare them with each other.After the eunuch finished reading the list one by one, all the maids also read it.Concubine Tong discussed with Shujia again: "Which one do you think is better?"
Shujia laughed and said, "The empress dowager's grandmother and the concubine of Khan Ama's point are the masters, how dare I be the first?"
"I just want you to talk about my 'making decisions'." Concubine Tong gave her an annoyed look.
"I can't intervene in that person's affairs. It's better for the empress dowager's grandmother to be an honest child. The empress dowager's grandmother is lenient, and she should give some blessings to the empress dowager's child."
Seeing that she was thinking the same as herself, Concubine Tong said, "That's it. Where are you? But what kind of person do you want to choose after thinking about it?"
Shujia said: "There are a lot of children in my place, and they are almost grown up, so they are more honest and safe."
Concubine Tong thought to herself, there is only one Hongxi who is about to grow up, probably because she is afraid that someone will spoil the concubine and make his face ugly.
Concubine Tong reached out and took two green lottery tickets, one was Li's and the other was Guo's, and put them aside first.
Taking another six sticks, Shujia remembered that there were only two vacancies in Ningshou Palace.
Concubine Tong finished choosing these, and said to Shujia: "You can choose whatever you want."
Shujia thought for a while, and picked out the ones she had previously pictured.She originally wanted to pick six and let it go. If there are six who have to be trained and trained, they will be enough to work with the original manpower.The rest are indeed short of a few court ladies, but they are not too urgent. Except for Hongxi, the sons are still young, and after this year there will be next year, and there are small elections every year.
Seeing that Concubine Tong had chosen four more candidates for Ningshou Palace, Shujia quickly changed her mind and picked eight more.Observe first, then eliminate, although the change of term is approaching, there are still a few years for her to prepare.
Concubine Tong waited for Shujia to finish picking the lottery, and then said: "Can I still use the other one?"
Shujia smiled and said: "These are enough for now. When there is a lack of people in the future, just pick."
Concubine Tong said to the eunuch, "That's all."
The eunuchs came up again to roll the names one by one, Guo Shi and Li Shi stood alone in one place, the six candidates of Ningshou Palace stood in one place, and Shujia's one-on-one stand in another place, I don't know what it means.Shujia saw that both Guo and Li could be called beauties, so they probably belonged to Yinti.He lowered his head slightly, and had no choice but not to watch when the tragedy was not prevented for various reasons.The crocodile sheds tears, I do it too much... I almost can't even shed tears.
Concubine Tong said: "Okay, you all follow me and the Crown Princess to Ningshou Palace."
In the Ningshou Palace, the Empress Dowager had just finished a new round of interviews, and all the beautiful women came out in a file, and met Tong Concubine's team on the road outside the Ningshou Palace.The maids were trained not to look around, after all, they were still young, and some could not control themselves, so they tried their best to stand upright, looking at the beautiful ladies out of the corner of their eyes, not without envy in their hearts.The show girls stood by the corner, and they were taken aback when they caught a glimpse of the palace ladies who were also made of weaves.They are all of the same age, some people step in and serve others, and some people step in and are served by others, it is really good luck.
Concubine Tong and Shujia were calm, and Concubine Tong asked Shuyi: "How is the ancestor today?"
Shuyi replied: "The empress dowager's master is in a very good mood, she was still talking about the noble concubine's master just now."
"I believe this, but you didn't tell the whole story. The Empress Dowager will not miss your sister."
Shujia said from the side: "My good concubine, it's not enough to make fun of me, but also to talk about our honest children."
Concubine Tong said: "Oh, it's safe now, and you don't want to make your sister feel wronged."
Shujia said: "The old ancestor is waiting for us."
"Okay, okay, let's go back." Concubine Tong stopped and said these words to support Shuyi, and for Shujia's sake.This kind of scene has happened several times, and everyone remembers it, and Shuyi cannot be messed with.
Along the way, Concubine Tong also said: "It's just that you are careful, you don't want to send someone to see her, and you have to talk about it behind your back."
"Isn't it the same when my concubine has a younger sister running for election?" She didn't send anyone to see Shuyi, but Ningshou Palace came every time, and she entrusted Concubine Tong to call attention to Shuyi's presence in the palace. In such a situation, he forcibly put a pair of eyes on his sister.
The sound of footsteps faded away.
In Ningshou Palace, the concubines have not left yet.Concubine Hui got the news from Concubine Tong that she was going to choose someone for Yinti: "Long Live Lord asked to pick two good ones to send to Eldest Brother. I thought, I must get two Xieyu flowers. It's easy to resolve." Concubine Hui could only admit it.Even though she sued her son for disobedience, that was also her son, and she was also worried. Hearing that Concubine Tong had gone to pick someone out, Concubine Hui took root in Ningshou Palace no matter how embarrassing she was.
Concubine Rong is much more comfortable waiting, and staying is free.
Concubine Tong and Shujia greeted each other and took their seats.Then came the introduction: "Old Ancestor, this is the court lady picked today. The ones you use here, the ones you use in the East Palace, and the ones you send outside are all here."
Seeing that Concubine Tong and Shujia brought so many people here, Concubine Yi smiled first: "Did you bring all the palace daughters of this year?"
Concubine Tong said: "If the Ministry of Internal Affairs dares to send only these few people here, I will definitely send people to make trouble in their lobby."
Shujia smiled and explained to the Empress Dowager: "The imperial concubine picked a few more for you, and you can keep the ones that are suitable for you, and return the rest to send another mission."
Concubine Tong also brought their green-headed checks, and checked them one by one.The court ladies are also nervous. Li and Guo don't know that they are going to a confined place to relieve boredom. They have already weighed their opponents along the way. They see that the other ten people are not as good-looking as themselves, and they stay a little bit when they look at others. , and said he was lucky.
Concubine Tong first read the people who filled the vacancies in Ningshou Palace, and the six people heard Concubine Tong say: "That's it, the princess asked me to choose for you first, take a look, they are all excellent, you choose It's better to stay." I couldn't help being nervous and excited, Ningshou Palace!
The little eunuch brought up a tray, on which were the six people's green lottery.
The empress dowager took out her glasses and took a picture of the girls: "They're all good." She flicked her fingers on the plate, turned back and forth, and finally clicked two randomly, "That's all they are." Concubine Tong compared the empress dowager No one is bad for the person who chooses his thinking. The empress dowager was at a loss, so she had to close her eyes and mess around.
Concubine Tong read the names of the two people again, and announced in Chinese: "These two have stayed in China, and the rest will be returned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for reassignment."
Those who were selected were weeping with joy, they were all servants in the palace, of course it would be better to be with a more majestic master.Those who were not selected also held back their tears. The failure of one step away is the most exciting.Not only can't he work in Ningshou Palace, but he has to be reassigned, and he doesn't know where to hide in that corner.
No matter how happy or sad they had to endure, they kowtowed honestly and retreated out of the hall in an orderly manner.
Concubine Tong pointed to the few people standing near the door and explained: "In the East Palace, there are only five new brothers, and the second elder brother is still growing up. We can't just have mothers and eunuchs. The princess will pick them first." A few good boys, who can be trained for a year or two to serve them. Everyone is there."
The empress dowager also looked at it once, but still couldn't see what was good or bad, so she simply changed the subject and said to Shujia: "You have a large population, if you lack manpower, just ask for it. If they don't give it, you come with me." Say."
Shujia thought in her heart, Kangxi has been having troubles in recent years, and the treatment in the East Palace has been raised higher and higher. My quota here is enough: "Then I thank the ancestors first." It was also a wink, and the eight people came forward together , Kowtowed over his head, also backed out.
The empress dowager finally sighed: "These two are just for the elder brother?"
Concubine Tong replied: "Yes."
The concubines had already guessed a bit, and it could be seen from the appearance that these two were not in the same way as the others, so Concubine Hui tried her best to look at Guo and Li.Guo and Li were also a bit clever, after all, they were young, and they were still guessing, the first two calls were either for the empress dowager or the crown prince, so they were going to work as errands in the Qing Palace?
Hearts were beating wildly, and the empress dowager spoke Mongolian, which they couldn't understand either.His face was flushed with nervousness, and sweat was felt on his neck.When the higher-ups finished discussing their destination in Mongolian, they didn't know where to go until someone announced to them in Chinese: "You must take good care of Big Brother."
The two were stunned for a moment, who is the big brother?Yinti was gradually forgotten after being circled, and it's normal for them not to remember.Blinking his eyes, he recognized that the person speaking was an old concubine, and the two of them hesitated to give blessings as a gift.Another concubine laughed and said: "The person chosen by the noble concubine, you just have to be careful."
The princess also said: "Mother Hui, these two were chosen by the imperial concubine carefully."
Concubine Hui?big brother?
A bolt from the blue is nothing more than that, right?Compared with thinking that you can go to Ningshou Palace and be sent to Qixiang Palace to sweep the floor, this is the real gap, right?
The two kowtowed to thank each other in a daze, they were already frightened out of their wits.
The matter of picking the maids is over, Shujia took the eight maids to the East Palace in a mighty way.When they arrived at the palace, Hong Xiu took it and was startled: "Master, this is? The newcomer?"
Zishang went out with Shujia, Dai Shujia replied: "The master picked it himself."
When they sat down in Duanyi Palace, the eight people saluted again.Shujia said: "You have also been tired all day. This is your Aunt Wang and this is Aunt Xiu. From now on, you should learn the rules from them first. Arrange a place for them and teach them some rules."
She arranged this way firstly because she was considerate of them, and secondly...the Baoyis were quite Manchurian, and the names they gave were also Manchurian.A group of little girls are either called Da Niu or Er Niu.This reminded Shujia of her childhood, and of the shiny black "Second Girl" on her green-headed signature back then.
The big girl and the second girl.There are several big girls and two girls in a row, which is really melancholy like a flower with a dog's tail.
After Yinreng returned home, Shujia asked them to bring them back for Yinreng to have a look at.After a cursory glance, Yinreng let them go down: "You can do as you see. They seem to be people who are in charge, and they are not afraid of making trouble."
"Are you tired today?" Shujia saw that he was a bit listless.
"It's going to be another tour outside the Great Wall," Yinfeng rubbed his forehead, "There are a lot of people who want to follow."
"Then are you still going?" Hongdan must go, so there is no need to ask.
"This time, Khan Amar ordered everyone to divide into two shifts and take turns to go."
"..."
Since Kangxi had already scheduled a tour outside the Great Wall in early June, the big challenge had to be concluded in May.
Kangxi acted quickly and decided everyone's future within a few days, and Shuyi became King Yu Fujin without any surprise.However, Kangxi himself did not keep any of them. He planned to make another tour of the south next year. If there were suitable Jiangnan beauties, it would be fine to bring one or two back to Beijing.
As the marriage proposals were swiped one by one, the big challenge came to an end, but for more people, life had just begun.
The Crown Princess was also busy calling her sister to the East Palace to give her an opportunity before she went home, which was allowed.The reason is also very good, Shuyi will be ready to marry when she returns home, and she can no longer go out, and it is extremely difficult for the Crown Princess to leave the palace.I had to talk about it while both of them were in the palace. The next time we meet, if the Crown Princess is not present when the box is added, it will only be after Shuyi gets married.
