410 , Zhao Feng imperial concubine(1/2)
410,
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the emperor was ordered by the Supreme Emperor to go to the Palace of Supreme Harmony to announce the Supreme Emperor's decree, appoint an heir and queen, and ennoble concubines, concubines, and concubines as per rituals.
Wang Jie, a scholar from Dongge University, was sent as the chief envoy, and Duo Yongwu, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, was sent as the deputy envoy. They held the festival, handed over titles, treasures, and appointed the concubine Xitala as the queen.
Because of Mianning's begging, she was finally able to receive the treasure in Chuxiu Palace.
There is a sentence in the edict of the Supreme Emperor: "The emperor governs the internal dynasty, and Shang Huiyin is the heir." When the queen heard this sentence, she finally smiled quietly, and her mind was relieved.
"Ruling the inner dynasty" still gives her the power to govern the Sixth Palace; "Shang Huiyin's heir" means that she can inherit the reputation of the previous empress - she naturally hopes to be recognized by the Supreme Emperor, she is
Someone who can carry forward Empress Xiaoyi's "Ling Wen Ling Wang".
It couldn't be possible, she was the head wife's direct wife, but she had to watch helplessly as Fujin on the other side always had a predestined fate with her mother-in-law, right?
After the ceremony was completed, the queen went to Yangxin Hall to salute in front of the Supreme Emperor.
The Supreme Emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the Queen. As the light and shadow passed, he still remembered the girl who had just entered the palace and selected him. He tried hard to recall and imagine that when Jiu'er saw this girl, he would feel
What are you thinking about?
He remembered that Jiu'er had finished looking at the people, so he picked up the list and looked at it carefully, then tilted his head and said to him with a smile, "Sir, look at this child's nickname, it's quite unique."
He looked at it and nodded.
Pointing the forehead is an allusion to "pointing the forehead in red clothes", which refers to people who are chosen by big shots.
He understood Jiu'er's unspoken meaning - Jiu'er liked this girl, but Jiu'er wanted him to make the final decision.
He also understood Jiu'er's intention in choosing this girl: this girl is smart and has a clear sense of rewards and punishments. She has been the housekeeper at home since she was a child. Even though she has three brothers, not all from the same mother, she is still willing to listen to them.
Her words.
Because her ancestors had been in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for many years, she did not have the squeamishness and ignorance of the sufferings of the world like ordinary ladies from a famous family; and her mother's family of the Hitara family once had the biological mother of Emperor Taizu Nurhachi, even though she had been pregnant for many years.
In Baoyi, he definitely has the noble status of "uncle's family".
At that time, what he was thinking was slightly different from Jiu'er. What he valued most was not the girl's temperament, but what he valued more was the past of the girl's mother's family - at that time, in his
In my mind, he was sixteen years older than Jiu'er, so it was natural that he should take the first step.
If that day comes, Jiu'er becomes the empress dowager, and if the queen is a noble lady, it is inevitable that Jiu'er will be arrogant because of Jiu'er's birth. Therefore, he has to choose someone who dares not touch his nose in front of Jiu'er before he can call her Jiu'er.
In his later years, things went more smoothly.
——The two of them chose this girl together, hoping that one day she would become Fifteen's virtuous wife, hope that she would be a good mother to the world, and hope that she would accompany Fifteen through all the storms in the future.
How could he not value this wife?
However, today, when he had really waited for this day and saw the girl from back then becoming a middle-aged woman in her late teens, wearing a queen's crown and walking towards him gracefully and elegantly, he
In my heart, why can’t I find the expectation and attention I had back then?
The queen knelt down and performed the grand ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times.
The Supreme Emperor nodded and said, "Queen, I feel sorry for you. When I was appointed as the Queen of the Qing Dynasty, I always only went to the emperor and even the Empress Dowager to kneel down and kowtow three times. They didn't have a Supreme Emperor at that time.
There is no need to perform such a grand ceremony of three kneels and nine kowtows; but who made you catch up, then I can only wrong you to be the only empress of the Qing Dynasty who performed three kneels and nine kowtows when she was enshrined."
According to the rules, the queen went before the emperor and bowed three times and kowtowed three times. This was the greatest ceremony for a royal mother.
However, the etiquette performed in front of the Supreme Emperor is naturally higher than that in front of the emperor. However, there are no ready-made rules in the "Hui Dian". The officials of the Ministry of Rites did not dare to make arbitrary decisions, and the empress did not dare to rashly just perform the six sus and three kneels.
After three kowtows, I had no choice but to follow the greatest etiquette and kneel three times and kowtow nine times.
After hearing this, the queen smiled and said, "The Supreme Emperor Ama is serious. My wife can salute the Supreme Emperor. This is not only not an grievance, but actually a unique honor for my wife."
The Supreme Emperor nodded and said, "The queen is interested. I hope that from now on, you will assist the emperor with your heart, set an example for the Sixth Palace, and diligently cultivate women's virtues."
The Supreme Emperor also sent Deming (Manchu Shangshu), the Minister of Rites, as the chief envoy, and Zhou Xingdai, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, as the deputy envoy. They held the festival, handed over titles and treasures, and consecrated the side concubine Niu Hulu as a noble concubine.
Ji Yun, the Minister of Rites (Han Shangshu), was sent as the chief envoy, and Zha Lang'a, the bachelor of the cabinet, was appointed as the deputy envoy. He maintained integrity, registered, and sealed, and named Liu Jia's concubine.
Tie Bao, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, was sent as the chief envoy, and Na Yan, the bachelor of the cabinet, was appointed as the deputy envoy. They held the festival, granted the title of concubine, and named Hou Jiashi as the Ying concubine.
The difference between the three of them, in addition to their status and the official position of the envoy, is also reflected in the differences in the objects they receive: the imperial concubine has a book and treasures, the concubine has a book and seal, and the concubine only has a book.
Wang Jia's family was granted the title Chun Chang Zai, and Sister Rong's son was granted the title Rong Chang Zai. They were not canonized.
After receiving the treasures from the book, Twenty-Twenty rushed to Yangxin Hall to pay homage to the Supreme Emperor.
From the same perspective and the same ritual, the Supreme Emperor watched N220 walk in, but couldn't help but slowly closed his eyes.
——The year Jiuer was first granted the title, he was also eighteen or nineteen years old.
Seeing the 19-year-old imperial concubine walking in so light and young, he felt like he was turning back time in a daze, and his heart was beating secretly, waiting for the girl who would be named his concubine for the first time in the first month of that year...
"The Supreme Emperor, the Supreme Emperor?"
Twenty-two knelt down, but found that the old man had closed his eyes tightly, "Are you... asleep?"
He then laughed and spat softly, "You little girl! You are the only one who dares to ask this!"
Twenty-two was happy and stood up again to salute her seriously.
But she is still a nineteen-year-old girl after all, and the uniform she wears is quite stressful. No matter how cautious she is, she is still a little wobbly.
He couldn't help but sigh, "You have some weak feet. I'm really worried about you getting stuck here again!"
The 220-year-old smiled, "If it's stuck, it's stuck. As long as the Supreme Emperor doesn't punish you, then you can be treated as your daughter-in-law. I respect you so much that I fall in love with you!"
The Supreme Emperor shook his head helplessly, "Hurry up, stop giggling, my concubines will have to come to salute later, you should be more dignified!"
Twenty-two had no choice but to stop smiling and carefully finish the ceremony.
Twenty-Twenty also had the same doubts as the Queen. After finishing the Six Sus, kneeling three times and kowtowing three times, he hesitated whether he should finish the ceremony or continue to kneel and kowtow again.
The Supreme Emperor looked at it and couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Okay, okay, I'm already shaky, but if I keep thinking like this, I'm really going to fall into despair. Get up quickly, give me
Stand up straight and straight!"
Twenty-two held back her laughter and quickly stood up straight.
The Supreme Emperor snorted, "I don't have anything to reward you... This is a Chinese New Year. I'll give your family a lot of rewards."
Nian Twen said with a smile, "The Emperor has rewarded the whole country of the Qing Dynasty to the Emperor, so what do we have the nerve to ask for? The Emperor can accept the gift from his daughter-in-law with peace of mind, because the daughter-in-law does not ask for favors."
The Supreme Emperor still sighed, looking like he was in pain.
"You don't have to, but I can't be too partial, right? Otherwise, you little girl might decide how to arrange for me when you go back..."
Nian Twenty also couldn't understand for a moment - what did this old man mean by being partial? When would she think that the old man was partial?
However, the Supreme Emperor still pulled his old face, looking at it as if it were water, turned his head and ordered, "Ruyi, bring it."
Ruyi bowed her waist and brought a big tray.
The old man, the Supreme Emperor, sighed several more times, looking like he couldn't bear to part with him.
"...Didn't I give the Queen Xiaoxian's crown and clothes in Changchun Palace to the Queen a few years ago? I have given them to her, so I can't help but give them to you!"
"Then I'll give these to you! Get them quickly, hurry up!"
Twenty-two was confused and took the tray, not knowing what was going on.
Ruyi was still sensible and said in a low voice with a smile, "Go back to the imperial concubine, master, what the Supreme Emperor has rewarded is an old thing used by Empress Xiaoyi back then..."
I was shocked. I wanted to say something, but my mind was spinning a thousand times. I was speechless, but the circles under my eyes were blurred first.
The Supreme Emperor looked at it and snorted, "...you don't have to be afraid, these are all her old things, not used when she was the imperial concubine later; they were all from when she was a concubine. Yadan'er, you
It’s better not to feel aggrieved.”
Twenty-two laughed "Hey", "How could it be? Just because it is an old thing, I cherish it more."
Twenty-two took her leave and left. Lord Qianlong narrowed his eyes and watched after her.
Fifty years ago, in the same first month of the year, Jiuer became a concubine; fifty years later, he gave her jewelry to a girl who was as young as her...
.
After leaving Yangxin Hall, Nianwen went to Yuqing Palace to pay homage to the emperor.
After receiving the ceremony, the emperor looked at her and smiled - there was a bulge in the lapel of her court dress.
"What good things are hidden there? Did Khan Ama reward them?" The emperor murmured, and San Geng and others hurriedly left.
Nian and Twenty nodded with a smile, reached into his clothes and took out a small cloth bag.
The emperor waited for her to unbutton one by one, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "What are the slaves for? Why didn't you give them to them and stuff them into your arms? After all, she is also my noble concubine, and she is so bulging.
Are you going to go to the harem?"
Twenty-two hugged the cloth bag and pouted at him, "I don't trust them to hold these things."
The emperor's interest was also aroused, and he stared hard at the little cloth bag, "What did Khan Ama reward you for wrapping it in paper like this?"
Twenty-two stopped talking and concentrated on untying the buttons one by one and spreading them out in front of the emperor.
Deliberately, without saying anything, just staring at him.
The emperor looked over and his eyes turned red immediately, "Did Khan Amma reward you with these?"
How could the emperor not recognize that these were all Enie's old possessions during his lifetime? He had seen them that Enie had always worn since he was a child.
To be continued...
