Every time she saw Ling Ruo, the Queen Mother would be in a particularly good mood. Ling Ruo would take this opportunity to coax her to eat more. If the weather was fine, someone would carry the Queen Mother outside to bask in the sun all day long.
Lying indoors will not help your condition.
With the careful care of the imperial doctors and the comfort of Kangxi, Hongli and others, the Queen Mother's spirit became better and better day by day, and she could even take a few steps on the ground occasionally.
Just when everyone thought that the Queen Mother's condition had improved and that she could live for months or even years longer, her condition suddenly deteriorated. In November, the Queen Mother's condition took a turn for the worse, and she fell into a coma, rarely waking up.
Kangxi was ill at Ciren Palace, but despite his diligent and attentive care, the Empress Dowager's illness did not improve at all, and her health worsened.
In the same month, Kangxi issued an edict, reviewing his life and explaining the difficulties of being a king. He also said that he had been suffering from dizziness since this spring and was getting thinner. He summoned all his disciples and ministers to discuss in detail the important matter of establishing the crown prince.
Above the court and in the harem, because of the matter of establishing a crown prince, the undercurrent was once again surging, and it was far worse than any time before.
In December, the Empress Dowager, who had been in bed for several months, finally died of illness. After the funeral, Kangxi, who was in great grief, suffered from a serious illness for more than 70 days, and his feet were swollen. After recovering from the illness, his health became even worse.
Later, the Hanlin Academy reviewed Zhu Tianbao's request to reinstate Yinfeng as the crown prince. Emperor Kangxi reprimanded him in the palace for violating the imperial edict because of his knowledge. In fact, he was an unfaithful and unfilial person, and he was ordered to be executed.
This thunderous method also chilled the minds of the princes who were dazzled by the position of prince, and realized that the position of prince was not so easy to obtain, and the situation would be irreversible if they were not careful enough.
The third elder brother Yinzhi, the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, the eighth elder brother Yinzhen, the ninth elder brother Yinzhen, the tenth elder brother Yinzhen?, the fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen, the seventeenth elder brother Yinli, except the eighth elder brother who was Kang
Xi publicly denounced him as unworthy of being a king, and all the others were possible. Among them, the 14th prince Yinzhen had the loudest voice. He was quite similar to Yinzhen when he deposed the prince for the first time.
Later, Cewang Adabtan sent his generals to invade Tibet, kill Dazang Khan, and imprison the emperor he established. The court wanted to send troops to exterminate him. The deposed prince wrote a letter with alum water and asked Minister Puqi to appoint him as a general. The incident happened
, Pu Qi was convicted, and Yin Reng was also put under tighter guard and was no longer allowed to have contact with outsiders.
Queen Dahang's posthumous title is Queen Xiaohui Renxian Duanyi Chunde Shuntianyi Shengzhang. Queen Xiaohuizhang was buried in Xiaodong Tomb and was promoted to Yuan Taimiao. She was located to the left of Queen Xiaokangzhang and issued imperial edicts to the world.
In July of the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi's reign, the "Provincial Grand Ceremony" was compiled. In October, the emperor's fourteenth son Yinzhen was appointed as the general of Fuyuan and marched into Qinghai.
In April of the fifty-eighth year of Kangxi's reign, Fuyuan General Yinzhen was ordered to garrison Xining.
In February of the 59th year of Kangxi's reign, the new Hubilhan was canonized as the Sixth Lama, ending the situation in which Tibetan religious leaders were not religious after the Fifth Lama.
In the same month, Fuyuan General Yinzhen was ordered to hold a meeting for the next year's division period, and Hongsheng, the son of Yinzhi, the third son of the emperor, was named the crown prince.
In March, Kangxi, who was sixty-seven years old, planned to hunt ferociously in Mulan Paddock on the ninth day of April, accompanied by all the princes, grandsons and imperial guards, including the nine-year-old Hongli.
Hongli had been very excited since he learned the news. He had never been to Mulan Paddock until now. He had only heard Grandpa Huang and Amma talking about it. How could he not be happy now that he had the opportunity to go there and hunt wild animals in person?
"Brother Li, we have arrived at the palace." As the carriage stopped, Hongli's servant Qinghe opened the curtain and said.
Hongli agreed and jumped down from the carriage lightly. He didn't even step on the wooden sticks he had laid out. Since he turned eight years old, he insisted that Ling Ruo no longer be transported to and from the palace.
Hongli trotted all the way to Jingsiju. At that time, the spring was bright and the grass was long and warblers were flying. The two cherry blossom trees in Jingsiju were blooming with pink or white cherry blossoms as in previous years. The wind blew through the treetops.
Countless petals were spinning and flying in the wind, and from time to time they fell on the clothes of the woman sitting on the swing under the tree, as if they were reflected on it.
A few petals playfully fell on the teacup in the woman's hand, causing shallow ripples in the clear green tea water.
"Eniang!" Following Hongli's voice, the woman on the swing turned around. It was a face more delicate than a cherry blossom. She looked at Hongli, and her bright autumn eyes slowly curved, revealing a face that would make all flowers eclipse.
With a beautiful smile, she said softly: "I'm back."
"Well, my son, I would like to pay my respects to my mother." After Hongli knelt down on one knee and saluted, he walked to Ling Ruo and let her hold his hand and ask her about the past few days.
"Has your grandpa's health gotten better recently?" Ling Ruo asked worriedly. The last time she went to the palace, Kangxi was not in good spirits and often said he was very weak. In fact, he had been seriously ill since the Queen Mother passed away.
After the performance, Kangxi's health never felt better again.
"Grandpa Huang has been taking the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor these days, and he is feeling better. Grandpa Huang also said that he will go hunting at Mulan Paddock on the ninth day of the lunar month. Children can go too." When he mentioned this, Hongli's whole face was filled with a smile.
.
Zhizi Mo Ruomu, how could Ling Ruo not know what he was thinking, pinched his nose and said: "Yes, yes, you are the happiest. The bow and arrow you have learned for so many years is finally useful."
After laughing for a while, Hongli suddenly remembered something and said: "The day before yesterday, the emperor's grandfather gave his son several sets of four treasures of the study. The son thought that one person could not use so many, so he planned to give them to his elder brother and younger brother. Can you tell me?"
"It's good that Hongli has such a heart. I'll send them off tomorrow." A slight smile floated on Ling Ruo's face, as warm and soft as the spring water in the pond.
In recent years, many new people have entered the house, each with their own merits. Among them, two people are more favored. One is the Geng family, the daughter of the leader Geng Dejin, and the other is the Wu family, the daughter of Wu Guozhu, the governor of the state;
At the beginning of the mansion, everyone was named Gege, but later the Geng family gave birth to a son named Hongzhou, who came after Hongli, and the Geng family was promoted to the Shufu Jin Dynasty.
However, no matter how many young and beautiful women came and went, Ling Ruo was always the one who was favored the most. The kind of favor that Yinzhen treated her was different from the great favor given to Nian. It was not fierce but real.
It's not that no one has coveted Ling Ruo's position, thinking that her family background is mediocre and that she was lucky enough to give birth to a son so that she can occupy this position. They don't want to oust her from this position so that she can ascend to it later.
It's just that... even Nala and Nian couldn't stand her, so how could those wishful thinking women do it? In the end, they only harmed themselves.
At night, Yinzhen came to see their mother and son. After having a meal together, he checked Hongli's homework. Although Hongli had been studying with Kangxi in the Forbidden City these years, Yinzhen never relaxed about his homework. Every time he came back,
Always check to see if he has slacked off.
Facing his questions, Hongli answered all his questions fluently, which made Yinzhen very satisfied. In terms of qualifications, Hongli was indeed the highest among all his sons. Whether it was Hongshi or rich, he was not as good as him.
