In Ningshou Palace, not only Concubine Xuan lived, but also concubines Wang and Chen.
The secret concubine Wang entered the palace in the name of the daughter of the magistrate Wang Guozheng, and the fifteenth, sixteenth and eighteenth elders were all born to her.
Chen, the Qin concubine, is the daughter of the second-class bodyguard Chen Xi'an. She was born in the Han army under Xianghuang's banner. Lao Shiqi is her son.
Since Lao Shiba was Yuzhu's biological brother-in-law, Yuzhu went to the East Side Hall first and took the initiative to meet his secret concubine.
"Your Majesty Yuzhu, my dear concubine's mother, please greet me."
"Minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, servant Dong Dianbang, please be kind to my concubine."
Only women in the palace, concubines or above, are qualified to be called empresses.
On formal occasions, when princes visit concubines in the palace, they usually add the suffix "mother" or "empress" after their position.
If the relationship is close, call her mother, for example, the imperial concubine’s mother. If the relationship is distant, call her empress, for example, empress De Fei.
Of course, it is different for a biological son to meet his biological mother.
For example, when the fourteenth old man met Concubine De in private, he always addressed her as concubine.
Whether it is De Fei's mother or De Concubine's mother, as long as the title is added, it means that the relationship is very estranged.
Why doesn’t the fourth child please Concubine De?
I remember that not long after the adoptive mother died, when the fourth child went to visit his biological mother for the first time, he called her De Fei mother without thinking.
Think about it, if one of the two biological sons of Concubine De is called Concubine Concubine and the other is Concubine De Concubine’s mother, can it be the same?
This is equivalent to the fact that the director of the county agricultural bureau is named Fu. Others call him director, but you call him director Fu.
It is clear at a glance who is close and who is distant!
The dignity of imperial power is supreme.
The concubine or concubine should be in the front, and the mother should be in the back. There is absolutely no mistake.
In some TV dramas about the Manchu Qing Dynasty, mothers and concubines are flying all over the place, which is really ridiculous!
As for the old emperor calling his biological mother his mother, it was a special case.
"Excuse me." The nanny on the side saw the secret gesture made by the concubine and quickly called out.
"Come, please sit down and enjoy some tea." The concubine knew how powerful the jade pillar was, and she didn't dare to act like a concubine at all. It was an unusual courtesy.
After Yuzhu sat down sideways, he reported the matter of Concubine Xuan's poisoning in detail.
How could Dong Dianbang dare to sit down when Yuzhu was present? After he knelt down and thanked him, he stood obediently behind Yuzhu.
The concubine is not an ordinary woman. If there is an imperial examination for women, she is almost certain that she will be the number one scholar.
Concubine Xuan was poisoned and is still unconscious. How could she not know about the secret concubine who lives in the same palace?
Now, Yuzhu led a large group of guards to completely surround Ningshou Palace.
Even if I think about it with my ears, I know that this matter will never let go.
However, I know that the secret concubine still wants to keep her confidants around her.
The secret concubine stared at the jade pillar and said softly: "Since you are here with the order, I dare not stop you. However, they have served me for many years, and they have no merit but hard work..."
Yuzhu understood it as soon as she heard it, and the concubine was worried that under the rise of punishment, the palace people around her would be implicated and died of serious injuries.
In fact, there is absolutely no need for concubines to do anything extra.
For Lao Shiba's sake, Yuzhu couldn't deliberately mess with the eunuchs, maids and nuns around his concubines.
"Please relax, my concubine, I will investigate and deal with it impartially."
In front of Dong Dianbang, Yuzhu stated that he would investigate and handle the case impartially, which meant that the innocent would not be implicated.
After the scene was over, Yuzhu stood up and saluted again, and then ordered the guards to take away all the servants around the concubine.
There is nothing that can be done about it. Who wants Concubine Mi and Concubine Xuan to live in the same palace?
According to the rules in the palace, eunuchs, maids and nuns are not considered human beings. As long as they have the slightest connection with poisoned eucalyptus, they can be arrested and tortured.
What should I do if I am wrongly accused and beaten to death during torture?
Alas, you died in vain, you were dragged straight to the princess's grave.
Human rights? Hehe, they definitely didn’t exist in the Qing Dynasty.
On the way Yuzhu turned around to visit Qinbi, Lao Liu hurried over.
Unlike Lao Shisan, who was completely marginalized, Lao Shiliu, who was born from a secret concubine, has been without a title, but he also holds the important position of director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Lao Shiliu was born in the 34th year of Kangxi's reign, five years younger than Yuzhu.
As soon as they met, Lao Shiliu cupped his fists and raised his hands, and said with great respect: "Greetings to Brother Zhu."
Yuzhu cupped his fists and raised his hands in return, and said politely: "Sixteenth Brother, you are too polite."
"If there is any use for my little brother, please ask Brother Zhu to take charge of it." Lao Liu took the initiative to ask for help. In fact, he was worried about being implicated in the poisoned eucalyptus and wanted to make meritorious service.
The truth is actually obvious. When Lao Shiliu and Dong Dianbang were on duty together, Concubine Xuan was actually poisoned.
No matter how many excuses Lao Shiliu and Dong Dianbang have, they will never be completely blameless when they are finally held accountable.
The managers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have no responsibility. In addition to the old emperor himself, Yuzhu's attitude can also play a key role.
There is no way, even if Old Sixteen is the biological son of the old emperor, he still has to act based on Yu Zhu's face.
Who said that Yuzhu was the foreman and the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?
If you ask, Yuzhu is also responsible?
Hi, who doesn’t know that Yuzhu has too many part-time jobs, how can he cover everything?
Lao Shiliu and Dong Dianbang are both full-time managers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If something big happens in the palace, they are on duty and shoulder their responsibilities!
Of course, the key still depends on the attitude of the old emperor.
Let's put it this way, if the old emperor wanted to take the opportunity to deal with Yuzhu, how could he send him to preside over the investigation?
Now that Lao Shiliu is here, Yuzhu doesn't bother to chase him away, so he simply lets him go along with him on errands.
When paying homage to Concubine Qin, Lao Shiliu obediently stepped back half a step, and Yuzhu took the lead in saluting.
"Your Majesty Yuzhu, please greet my concubine Qin."
"My son Yinlu, please be kind to my concubine Qin."
The names are different, the familiar and the distant see each other!
Because Longkodo and the seventeenth-year-old Guo Luomafa Chen Xi'an were both third-class bodyguards in their early years, and they had a close relationship.
Therefore, the relationship between Yuzhu and Qinbi is relatively close.
However, Lao Shiliu was different.
Lao Shiliu's biological mother, Mi Concubine, and Lao Shiliu's biological mother, Qin Concubine, entered the palace at about the same time. These two sisters, named Gongli, were actually the biggest competitors at that time.
Among the three sons of Mi's concubine, except for Lao Fifteen, who stood in the wrong line and had nothing to do all day long, the other two sons all had errands to do.
Qinbi's son, Lao Shiqi, is different.
Until the day when the old emperor closed his eyes, Old Seventeen had no title and had never done any errands. He was a typical little transparent elder brother.
The son has no strength and status, and the mother will inevitably lose her strength.
Yuzhu personally brought people here, and the incident of Concubine Xuan's poisoning was obviously going to cause a bloody storm.
"Quickly, get up quickly. Someone, come and show Yu Xiangguo a seat and serve tea."
In order to save the lives of her confidants, Qinbi became anxious and actually spoke out in person.
