Wen Xi also knew that Yin Li was not that good, so she stopped teasing him over this.
Now that there is no Queen Mother in the palace, Queen Wen Xi often goes to live with Kangxi in Changchun Garden. She spends one-third of the twelve months of the year away from the palace, so the concubines in the harem do not need to pay greetings and live happily.
Very plain as water.
It was cool in autumn, so I moved back to Chengqian Palace. At the end of the month, Concubine Cheng, Concubine Yi, and Concubine Rong came to report palace affairs to Wenxi. Palace power was delegated to Wenxi, and they listened to their reports regularly. As usual, nothing big happened.
of.
But today, Concubine Cheng said with a hesitant look on her face: "Master, the secret concubine of Yonghe Palace, Lu Changzai Faluo, went to Leng Palace a month ago."
"Lu Chang is here?" Wen Xi was talking about this unfamiliar low-level concubine. Naturally, she didn't remember such a person, so she asked: "Is she from the secret concubine palace?"
Concubine Cheng shook her head and said, "They are from the side hall of Concubine Ding. A month ago, Lu Changzai bumped into a concubine in the imperial garden and was slapped in the face. Then he was forcibly escorted to the cold palace by the concubines."
A sneer appeared on her warm lips, and she said: "The Wang family is just a concubine. You guys are co-managers of the Sixth Palace. Why do you allow a little concubine to run wild in the palace?!"
Concubine Yi hurriedly said: "My mistress and the emperor were both in Changchun Garden at that time. I once asked the eunuch next to me to ask for the emperor's holy will, but the emperor only said, 'Don't pay attention to small things.' I didn't know after a while.
How should we deal with it?”
Don't pay attention to trivial matters? Wen Xi expected Kangxi to say such a thing. Even the concubine Ding has not been favored for many years. The only thing she can rely on is her position and son, let alone her mere presence in the palace? I'm afraid
Kangxi didn't even remember that he had such a concubine. How could he make the decision for Lu Changzai?
"Is Mr. Wang very trouble-making lately?" Wen Xi picked up the tea cup and asked quietly.
The three concubines looked at each other with six eyes. After all, they were mostly dissatisfied. Even Concubine Rong, who didn't like to speak ill of others behind their backs, couldn't help but said: "Actually, the Wang family has been a secret concubine since she was reinstated. Her behavior is often inappropriate, and she even uses things that exceed the rules."
Department, the harem was overhauled a month ago, and her Yonghe Palace is even more luxuriously decorated than the Dingfei Palace!"
It’s just that Concubine Ding has the most gentle temperament, so why does Wang prefer to have sex with her... Then Wen Xi suddenly thought that although Concubine Ding and the concubine had no quarrel, the twelfth and fourteenth elder brothers could
It's not that there are no festivals. There was a war in the northwest, and Yinzhen was not the only one who requested to go to war. The twelfth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother also requested. It's just that since Mulan, they have been quite biased against Yinzhen, and the twelfth elder brother
His riding and shooting skills were not as good as those of his 14th elder brother. Therefore, Kangxi finally selected Yinzhen to go on the expedition.
Not only that, in daily life, the twelfth elder brother and Yiner are the closest, and Yiner is a gentle adopted son. The elder brothers don't get along, and their mothers also don't get along with each other.
Wen Xi took a sip of tea. It was not a big deal to have Lu Chang Zai. But Wen Xi had to worry about Kang Xi's intentions and said: "Let Lu Chang Zai be released from the cold palace. But since she has a conflict with the secret
Concubine, just ask her to shut up and think about it for a month."
"As for the concubines -" Only the queen has the right to severely punish the concubines. Although the concubine is the head of the first palace, she can only control the concubines and slaves of the first palace! And she is not the one to be punished severely like being thrown into the cold palace.
A mere concubine can make the decision! Even if Wen Xi is now a queen and meets a high-ranking concubine above the concubine, she cannot be said to have been relegated to the cold palace! The Wang family is becoming more and more capable!
"A concubine who exceeds the rules will be punished with a year's salary." Wen Ru handed down the punishment in an understatement. In the harem, what kind of status you have, what kind of rules you must abide by. Could it be that Mrs. Wang was relying on her son's growing face?
Have you become the "Great General King" while thinking about being superior to other brothers' biological mothers? Wenxi will never condone such a person!
In autumn, golden osmanthus plants were placed on the left and right outside the gate of Chengqian Palace. They were planted in large blue and white porcelain water dragon pattern pots.
The fragrance of osmanthus in the palace.
On the fifth day, as usual, all the concubines above the harem concubine would come to pay their respects, and each one would decide the order according to their position. Now there are five concubines, and the veteran concubine Hui Yi Rongcheng, plus Shen Concubine and Ding Concubine, are arranged in two.
Next in line are the six concubines: the Yi concubine Tong Jia, the Mi concubine Wang, the Shun concubine Song, the He concubine Guar Jia, the Tong concubine Nala, and the Gong concubine Zhaojia, a total of eleven people.
After a great ceremony, everyone took their seats and served tea according to their status.
The warm-skinned woman wears a wide-sleeved cross-collar flag uniform with bright red ruffles and golden five-color phoenixes. She wears a purple pipa double-breasted Sichuan brocade waistcoat, and her hair is combed with a ruby red gold phoenix pierced through a peony head and face, and above it is a first-class dong.
Three pairs of beads, dignified manner, unsmiling, slightly twisting a string of southern red agate beads in his hand.
Wen Xi glanced at everyone with cold eyes, and her tone of voice was solemn and majestic: "You have been in the palace for many years. I originally thought that you should act in a measured way, and there is no need for me to give you any more instructions. Now I see
It was my fault."
When everyone heard this, they immediately stood up in fear and squatted down together: "I don't dare!"
Her warm and cold eyes fell on the inconspicuous concubine at the back. Wang was no longer young, but compared to the aging of other concubines, she still had the charm of the past, her body was still graceful, and her face was evenly applied.
With her makeup and makeup, if you didn't take a closer look, you might have thought she was no more than thirty years old.
"The most shameful thing in this palace is the word 'arrogance based on favor'!" Wen Xi put on airs and spoke in a long tone, "In this palace, the most important thing is the rules! No matter what status you have, it matters.
What kind of rules do you follow! Concubines have their own rules, and concubines have their own rules! Although concubines are all officially canonized, the position of concubine is the position of concubine, and the position of concubine is the position of concubine! No one is allowed to exceed their status,
The following guilty!"
"Concubines, please remember the Queen's teachings!" The voices were all in unison.
Her gentle gaze was mainly focused on the concubine, but she still kept her eyebrows low and submissive, and couldn't see any disrespect at all!
Wen Xi gave a long hum and said in a long tone: "I am often away from the palace. You high-ranking concubines should take good care of the harem and don't let restless people recognize such unseemly things.
!" Wen Xi's words were directly directed at the secret concubine.
"I respectfully obey the Queen's decree!" The Sixth Concubine hurriedly bowed and said in unison.
Wen Xi put down the tea cup and said, "Don't be formal, please get up and sit down!"
Only then did the eleven concubines dare to get up.
The way to manage the harem is inseparable from the four words "benefit and power". Now that "power" has been used, it is time to show kindness. Wen Xi looked at Ding Fei, who looked quite old among the concubines, and said in a gentle tone: "I am
The palace heard that Concubine Ding was not feeling well after she came in, but is she feeling better?"
Concubine Ding hurriedly stood up, quite flattered: "Master, I'm sorry for your concern, but my concubine only coughed twice! She has already recovered!"
Wen Xi nodded and said, "I heard that Lu Changzai in your palace has been serving the emperor for more than ten years."
Concubine Ding said hurriedly: "Go back to my master, it has been fifteen years since Lu Changzai entered the palace. Since he was promoted to Changzai ten years ago, he has never been granted the title of Jin again."
She said with a warm voice, "I have told the emperor that Lu Changzai has been respectful and peaceful for many years, and he will be promoted to a nobleman at the end of the month!"
Concubine Ding hurriedly knelt down and said, "I am always here to thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace, the Queen!"
It's not a big deal to promote someone who has always been a nobleman. It's just that no one in the harem has been promoted for many years, but it's also a happy thing. In fact, Wen Xi doesn't even remember what the Lu family looks like, and naturally, Kangxi does too
However, there was an urgent report from the front line of Xining that the Fourteenth Prince had been defeated in a battle and had to retreat to Xining. Wen Xi took the opportunity to ask Kangxi to replace the Jinlu family as a noble, and Kangxi casually agreed.
"Now that the war in the northwest is raging, the harem should also do its part! From today on, my monthly salary will be reduced by two-thirds, and that of the concubines will be reduced by half." Her gentle tone was calm.
, but these words were issued to issue orders, not to discuss with them.
This matter related to the previous dynasty, so naturally no one dared to comment. After saying what needed to be said, Wen Xi asked the concubines to disperse.
After taking a short nap at noon that day, I heard from Zhu'er that the Eighteen Belles had entered the palace with a sign.
Yinzhen has also grown up. His Baylor Mansion was built two years ago and is located next to the residence of Prince Xiangjun. Naturally, Yinzhen spent most of his time traveling around the world and seldom returned to his home. But if
When I return home, I will definitely go to the palace to pay my respects.
Kangxi wanted to get married but he ran away. Now that the Queen Mother has passed away, he has to wait another three years. However, Kangxi was afraid of delaying Yinzhen, so he rewarded him with two concubines in private. Naturally, he wasted so much money.
A good girl is guarding Baylor's Mansion alone, but this Lord Baylor can't go back a few times throughout the year.
Wen Xi saw that her youngest son was a little darker, so she said, "There will be a lot of things going on in the future, so you should stop running around. If you stay, you can help your brother."
Yinzhen thought of his master's instructions, saying that there would be big changes within three years and asked him to come back, so he had no choice but to nod reluctantly.
Wen Xi was about to ask where Yin Xun had been having fun these past six months, when Xiaoluzi came in from outside and reported that Yin Lu and Yin Li were both here.
Both of them were wearing court clothes and walking very hastily. When Yinli entered the door, he said in an annoyed tone: "Eighteenth brother, you should come back early!"
"Today is Brother Fourteen's triumphant return, why didn't you go?" Wen Xi was slightly confused.
Yinli's face was full of dissatisfaction, and his tone was also irritable: "Let Cewang Alatabutan escape, but he still has the nerve to call it a 'triumph'!"
On the contrary, Yinlu's face was much calmer, with a bit of worry in his calmness, and he said in a deep tone: "Zhungeer has always been cunning, so he must not win. Retreating is a wise choice, but if he can't capture him in one fell swoop, I'm afraid there will be another spring in the coming year."
