Regarding the wedding of the emperor's eldest son, the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepared a series of clothing, utensils, personnel, etc. last year. According to the procedure, after the emperor issued the decree, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent someone to escort the beautiful girl home, and then Aunt Jingqi was responsible for taking care of the beautiful woman. female.
From now on, the prospective prince Fujin cannot easily see outsiders, not even men, including his own Ama and brothers. From this day on, the prospective bride can only show up on her wedding day.
Compassionately sharing the same fate, Yinti only had to show up twice during the entire wedding: during the wedding ceremony as the prospective son-in-law to meet Fujin's parents, and then on the wedding day as the groom's official.
When the eldest son of the emperor met with Fujin's parents, he had to choose an auspicious day. This was what Kangxi had told Qin Tianjian, saying that this was the first wedding among the princes, so he must choose a good day.
In Qiandongtou Institute, Yinti was caught up in the endless process of congratulations and gifts, changing clothes and trying on clothes. He had to wear a golden python robe to meet Fujin's parents, a red auspicious suit when he got married, and he also had to make new boots. .
Finally, Grandma Chen took a look and said: "My brother has grown up and has grown in stature. We just took this opportunity to change together."
Yinti sighed, stood up again, and asked the needleworkers and people from the Weaving Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to tailor the clothes, and then continued to try on clothes and change clothes. He was really bored, so he asked: "Jihe, how are your sisters doing? Are they okay? What?"
"To tell you what my brother is saying, the slave girls are all fine, and Ama and Eniang... are also fine." Ji He smiled and said, "My subordinates often come to take care of me, so I'm safe at least."
"That's good, don't worry. The girls under our banner don't have to worry about getting married. Maybe they will get a husband in the future."
"I accept my brother's good advice."
At that time, two maids were assigned to the palace, and later two more were sent. Among the four maids, only the provocative Ji He won the favor of the eldest brother, and the other three also tried to flatter her verbally.
"You are so awesome, you are here to serve me." "You should be careful, what will you do if Fujin comes in in the future?" and so on, sour.
Ji He didn't take them seriously. When her brother asked her to keep vigil at night, she kept vigil. When asked how the Jingli banner people lived, she answered. Her brother saved her whole family. Ji He was full of repayment. Like a little girl who has been through the storm, she is still thinking about having a threesome.
Yinti also saw that Jihe repaid him wholeheartedly. He did not intend to repay the favor, but he was relieved to have such a person by his side. Even Grandma Chen now handed over some matters surrounding Yinti to Jihe. He also told Yinti privately that if Jihe followed him to open a mansion in the future, it would be a good idea for him to be the steward.
The maids and eunuchs in the palace are all sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Once they are sent, they belong to their master. Unless the master orders it, they will only have this master for their whole life. Yinti also slowly learned that it was like secretly going out to race horses in Zunhua , Kangxi punished himself with the same haha beads as the eunuchs.
If any master in this palace makes a huge mistake, then that person's slaves will inevitably have to be kidnapped or even sacrifice their lives. Under such circumstances, no one dares to engage in betrayal. Being a loyal servant means death. It can even leave a whole corpse.
If he betrays his master, in today's environment, this person will be a scum despised by everyone, and there is basically no possibility of survival. A slave is different from an ordinary commoner with good citizenship. The latter is a person with independent social attributes, and the former is an accessory of the master's family. .
Perhaps Kangxi had an opinion about Xin Zheku because of this. Ordinary coats were good people, and they only served the royal family. Xin Zheku, on the other hand, was not so "good" in comparison. For Kangxi's perfectionism, it was inevitable Something like that.
When thinking of these things, it’s easy to think of Xiaoba. I can’t see much about this unlucky boy’s future now. He’s a very good boy, and Concubine Hui also likes him. As for the future, there are still more than ten years left, so it’s better not to worry about it. .
Yinti was thinking wildly while preparing for the wedding. In the Qianqing Palace, Kangxi was asking the prince to watch him handle the government affairs as usual, and the father and son also talked privately.
"I didn't investigate Xu Yuanmeng's matter carefully. I have already ordered Tang Bin, Yin Tai and others to come back, as well as Zhang Ying. These are capable and talented ministers, and they are not pedantic." Kangxi said with a smile: "Ask them to continue to be your teachers, so Amma can feel more at ease."
At least it can minimize the negative impact that Suo'etu may have on the prince, and allow the prince to develop in the direction of the future Holy Emperor. Kangxi looked at his beloved son and asked Wen Yan: "What do you think?"
"Listen to Khan Ama." Yinreng also knew that these were all knowledgeable and famous courtiers. He said: "Khan Ama is doing it for his son's good. As for Xu Yuanmeng, he is not only the prince Zhan Shi, but also the prince. Khan Amma's daily lecturer has failed his holy grace to this extent, and it is not worth Khan Amma's troubles."
This is what Yinreng really thinks. In his opinion, his minister Zhan is also a court official and is under the control of the emperor. It is Khan Amma who decides how to deal with them, and he should not interfere, so he feels that the eldest brother is superfluous. Go and interrupt.
In the final analysis, Yinreng felt that Zhan Shifu was not one of his own. If he really talked about it, his "own people" except for the people of Soetu and Hesheli's family, probably only his eunuchs and Haha Zhuzi.
Yinfeng also has a sense of crisis now. He is not young anymore. He is by Kangxi's side every day. In terms of understanding of the court system, he is still better than Yinti. He knows that sooner or later, the eldest brother will separate the palace and leave the palace, so with sweat Amma valued him so much that she would definitely assign him a subordinate and become the flag leader.
At this time, for the bannermen, apart from the emperor, who is the co-owner of the world, the person who needs the most conscientious loyalty is not the second-in-command, the crown prince, but the banner owner.
In the future, the eldest brother will have a lot of people waiting for him to choose and use, not to mention finding other famous people outside the palace - this will certainly not be difficult for Yinti, he has a good uncle and a good cousin.
But when the crown prince is in the palace, he has to continue to face the situation of "my people are not my people, but actually the emperor's people", which is embarrassing.
At present, Yinreng only focuses on his eldest brother. He does not realize that in addition to his eldest brother, his bigger crisis has gradually become apparent, which will make him feel uneasy in the future.
Because there will be more than one eldest brother who will leave the palace in the future. As of now, that is, in early April of the 26th year of Kangxi's reign, the elder brothers under Kangxi's knees have been promoted to the thirteenth son of the emperor, who is the son of the concubine Zhang Jia. Yinxiang.
Kangxi was only thirty-four years old this year. Youdao was the eldest grandson's pet peeve, and the prince's troubled days were still to come.
Yinreng, who was currently unaware, was wandering around the world, thinking of what Gelfen secretly said before, "It would be great if you, the Crown Prince, get married early. Only when you marry a wife can you become an adult and a man who can be independent."
I wonder when he will get married, and whether Khan Amma will ask him to get married early... Yinreng thought.
The emperor and the prince had different ideas.
Kangxi was silent for a long time and said to Yinfeng: "You are right to think so, but it is also wrong. Xu Yuanmeng is my daily official and the crown prince Zhan Shi, but if you feel that my punishment is too severe, even if he is an ordinary minister, you should treat it as Give me timely advice. I am not someone who doesn't listen to advice, let alone you are the prince."
The prince must be responsible. You cannot let the emperor make the decision. You have no idea. Kangxi also plans to find an opportunity in the next two years for the prince to come to supervise the country to exercise his abilities. Now it seems that this decision has no impact on the prince. Isn't it too early to say?
Yinreng immediately said: "My son understands that I was wrong. From now on, my son will definitely tell me everything I know."
"That's right. You have to study and practice riding and shooting every day. I don't want you to stare upward every day."
Kangxi said: "My elder brother, he saw Xu Yuanmeng kneeling and crying in front of the Qianqing Gate. It was inappropriate, so he came to report the matter. This was his filial piety. As the prince, you should be in a higher position. If you feel that something is unclear, If it’s inappropriate and you think you should tell me, then you have to.”
Yinreng nodded vigorously. He understood what kind of son Khan Amma wanted. He had already taken his family, country and world as his own responsibility. Yes, he was the prince. Did he dote on his other brothers more after staring at Khan Amma all day? No, he should focus on more meaningful things.
April 16th was an auspicious day. Yinti, accompanied by hundreds of people including internal ministers, ministers of casual rank, bodyguards, and army guards, marched to Keerkun's house. He went to Keerkun's house to "let his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law pay their respects." Own."
Yes, according to the etiquette, Fujin's father will bring the whole family to welcome the prince outside the door. The prince will be led into the main hall and bow to Fujin's father. Then Fujin's father will bow three times, and the same will be done to Fujin's mother.
After paying homage, the small ceremony was over, and Yinti was escorted back to the palace by the chamberlain. Fujin's father continued to take the whole family to see off the prince at the door.
All in all, if a daughter marries into the royal family, the father-in-law and the brothers-in-law will not have the opportunity to test the hairy-footed uncle, let alone be picky. They can just be obedient and respectful and give them gifts.
Keerkun was naturally filled with joy, but Mrs. Keerkun, who had seen Yinti's appearance and character with her own eyes this time, was even more uneasy. Judging from the appearance alone, the eldest brother was impeccable. But for such an imposing young man, Prince, it wouldn't be surprising if there are warblers and swallows around you.
The lady was full of worries, but she still said to her daughter: "Dao Qin, listen to what E Niang said, our family has no precedent of marrying into the imperial family, and you are the first one. If your Ama hadn't been favored by the emperor, our family would not be like this." Most of them marry into clans, and you know this."
The girl named Daoqin from Ilgenjueluo nodded: "Mother, these daughters all know."
"You are always sensible, and my mother can rest assured, but the prince is no better than others." The lady said: "You are getting married, and there is no need for my mother to avoid talking to you privately. Like you, Ama, your brother also has concubines around him. House girl, but she is a slave, and she will never be able to make a difference in her life."
"But the royal family is different. In the past, the eighth elder brother who was raised in the palace of the eldest elder brother's biological mother, Empress Hui, didn't have a biological mother from Xin Zheku Baoyi? As long as the master favors him, nothing can happen. No matter how noble the world is, Even the most noble family is not as noble as the royal family, so no matter what background a woman is in, she is the same in the eyes of the princes and grandsons."
The lady sighed: "Eniang is not trying to scare you, nor is she trying to get you to have other thoughts. The eldest brother is the eldest son. Although he is not as important as the prince, he is still valued by the emperor. When you marry, just catch him.
If my brother has another woman, you don’t have to worry."
"You are the Zhengfu Jin who has been appointed by the Emperor to be married. That is enough." The lady finally said: "Coupled with your Amma's friendship with Ming Xiang, you will definitely be able to live a good life."
Daoqin still has longing for her newlywed life. She is said to be one year younger than Yinti, but she was actually born on December 18th in the twelfth year of Kangxi. Strictly speaking, she is almost two years younger than Yinti.
Already.
A girl who was barely fifteen years old was about to marry the prince she had met before. She would inevitably wonder, "Is this destiny?" Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that she had bumped into him several times when she was young.
But when E Niang said this, she suddenly felt a little scared. Would life in the palace be terrible? The relationship between husband and wife, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, what if she did something wrong? Only then did Dao Qin think that the eldest son she was going to marry was still the eldest son.
, then she is the eldest daughter-in-law...
The little girl's psychological pressure suddenly increased.
After Xiao Ding, it is the acceptance of the lottery, which is the formal appointment. This also means that Zhun Fujin's identity is completely solidified and cannot be changed. This does not require Yin Ti to come forward. The Minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Galu, and the Chief Eunuch Consultant will come forward to lead.
Send someone to Fujin's home to take care of it.
On the day of the appointment, wine will be served at the Fujin family. This is the responsibility of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. According to past practice, officials and guards of the second rank and above of the Imperial Clan, Jueluo, Manchuria Shijue, and Mingwives of the second rank and above of the Eight Banners are all
I want to attend the wedding banquet held by Prince Fujin’s family.
Naturally, Mingzhu was coming, and his nephew was getting married. As for Suo'etu, he had to attend even if he pinched his nose. He originally wanted to find an excuse to say that he was not available on duty, but the emperor reminded him extra: "Don't
I forgot to go to Korkun’s house to ask for a wedding drink.”
When Kangxi spoke, Suo'etu had to attend no matter what, but he was cautious, thinking that he was like a white sheep falling into the tiger's mouth. Look, look, these are all pearls!
Suo'etu felt a little uneasy, and finally decided to find a seat next to Prince Yu. Suo'etu still praised the prince to Fuquan, "The prince is always thinking about you." "The prince often said that Prince Yu has treated himself respectfully these years.
Shou, thank you for your hard work in sharing the emperor's worries at the meeting of kings and ministers."
Fuquan smiled bitterly and had no choice but to say repeatedly: "I don't dare, I don't dare, I'm just following orders." He was not good at words, and with Suo'etu surrounding him like this, Mingzhu also looked over, and the clan ministers looked at him intentionally or unintentionally.
Fuquan felt uncomfortable all over.
"Hey, Suoxiang, what are you doing!" A particularly incoherent voice sounded: "I don't know, I thought it was my second brother's house holding a happy event today! Did you congratulate Shangshu Keerkun?"
The one who spoke was Prince Gong Chang Ning, who was holding the wine glass and looked a little drunk at first glance. Chang Ning was not used to Suo'etu, so he swayed and came to Suo'etu with a drunken look on his face: "I'm talking to you.
What? Why, Suo Etu, Suo Xiang, you look down on me!"
"What did you say? How dare you, old minister? Fifth Master is joking, joking." Suo'etu had no choice but to face such an unreasonable drunkard, so he had to hand over his hand repeatedly, congratulated Keerkun, and was finally dismissed by the Minister of Rites.
Guide Alam sat opposite Mingzhu...
Fuquan breathed a sigh of relief and pulled his younger brother to his side: "Stay calm."
"Oh, I know." Chang Ning poured himself another glass of wine: "Don't worry, second brother, I'm not drunk." No one who was drunk would admit that he was drunk, and Fuquan shook his head.
The Office of Shengping also sent actors and musicians to add to the fun. Apart from the initial slight disharmony, the entire Cai Cai Banquet was a great joy for both the guests and the host. In the end, everyone knelt three times and kowtowed nine times at the palace gate at the foot of the stairs. The male guest and the lady see off the female guest in the inner room.
At the end of this day, receiving the lottery is considered complete, and their family does not have to worry about it until May 25th. The family will send the Fujin dowry to Qiandongtou. Then they will wait for the wedding day, when the eldest brother will hold the wedding ceremony during the day. But Fujin's honor guard set out to enter the palace at an auspicious time.
There was still a month to go, and everyone in the Kerkun Mansion, as well as the eldest brother in the palace, let out a sigh of relief, and could finally take a break.
Yinti said: "It's too troublesome to get married. I will have to marry a wife like this once in my life... I'm so tired."
"Brother, it's too late for me to be happy about getting married. Even if I'm tired, I still feel happy." Yinqi turned to look at him: "Why do you say that?"
"...Good boy, let me see what you say when you get married!"
Yinqi was wearing a short game and was wrestling with Yinti in Jianting. To put it bluntly, he was looking for his elder brother to play with him. After a while, Yinqi suddenly asked: "Is Ful Hulun back?"
"I'm afraid not." Yinti smiled, stroked Xiao Wu's hair, and said with a smile: "Fuer Hulun brought a gift. After all, the filial piety period has not passed yet... I guess that after the filial piety next year, he will Come back and have class with you."
"I miss him very much." Yinqi fiddled with the ends of his braids: "I haven't seen him for a long time."
Yinqi was so emotional. When Yinti thought about it carefully, he realized that he had already been running around when he was Yinqi's age. A careful comparison shows that starting from the third child, the princes were almost kept in captivity, while Yinti was raised extensively and free-range. ...It is not an exaggeration to jokingly call him a "wild boy".
Alas, the good times have passed for these unlucky children. As the number of princes gradually increased, their lives became more and more regular. There was no chance for people like Yinti to run around freely.
Moreover, if Kangxi had any scattered errands now, he would naturally choose his eldest son to run errands, and he would not use his younger sons. Yinti patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said nothing.
In fact, Yinti's marriage did not affect him, let alone his younger brothers. The ones who were most affected were the women in the harem. According to the rules of the Qing palace, the concubines in the harem would go to the Yangxin Palace before dinner. Xitang, wait for the eunuch to give the emperor a green head card.
If the emperor wanted to have a meal, chat, and live in harmony with someone, he would turn over whose name it was. The concubines whose names were turned over would stay, and the concubines whose names had not been turned over would disperse and return to the palace.
The four concubines all have sons and daughters, but Yinti is the eldest son of the emperor and is about to get married. Everyone gathered together and did not care about turning the cards. Instead, they all congratulated Concubine Hui, "Sister, I am about to enjoy the blessing of children and grandchildren." "Yes, I have a daughter-in-law to take care of me!" "You can have a grandson just before your eyes." And so on.
Concubine Hui was so happy that she couldn't help but wave her hands: "Look what you said, just like Concubine Rong, your third elder brother will grow up right before your eyes. Then you will also have your daughter-in-law by your side, and your grandchildren will be all over the floor." run?"
Looking at Concubine Hui's appearance, Concubine Yi also fell into deep thought. In the past, she was a little bitter about whom Kangxi favored. Now it seems that there is nothing to be bitter about. A good son is really good, and a son who grows up safely is what she will spend the rest of her life with. Safety!
As for the emperor, there is no harm in pampering whomever he likes, so that the fifth, ninth and eleventh children will have a good future.
She was not the only one to have this idea. Looking at Concubine Hui, everyone was suddenly enlightened. Those who had sons decided to raise their sons well, while those who did not have sons thought about how to have a son.
Kangxi in the Qianqing Palace sneezed. He looked at the green-headed sign and said, "I won't see them today. Tomorrow, remember to go to the Cao family to deliver the message. The hot filial piety has passed. Call Cao Yin into the palace. I have something to ask." he."
Liang Jiugong held the tray and said, "Hey, I have taken note of this. I will ask Cao Yin to enter the palace tomorrow."
Alam was transferred away, and he had to prepare for marriage, so Yinti became an out-of-school boy. Now he and Lao Wu are proficient in trilingual teaching every day, plus practicing martial arts, and then casually reading books.
That day, he ran to Wuying Hall to read new books. When he went out, he ran into Cao Yin. They hadn't seen each other for more than a year. Yinti waved: "Guard Ziqing!"
"Brother, I haven't congratulated my brother yet. I wish my brother and Fujin a happy marriage." Cao Yin looked slimmer and in good condition.
"Is it Khan Ama who wants to see you?" Yinti stepped aside: "Then I won't delay Mr. Ziqing. You can go quickly. Mr. Gu and the others are all thinking about you. If you are free, Ziqing's guards should not forget to go as well. Take a walk at Lushui Pavilion."
Cao Yin bowed slightly and went to Qianqing Palace. When Yinti returned to the head office, he heard Qin Ji brought back a message before nightfall. Kangxi had made the decision to transfer the daughter of his other wet nurse, Wenshi, to the Empress Dowager. Li, who was the maid in charge of the palace, pointed out to Cao Yin that the marriage would be completed when the filial piety period was over.
Manager Li also has an older brother who is working as a magistrate in Guangdong, named Li Xu.
Yinti smacked his tongue again. If Kangxi was good to someone, he would really consider that person. He didn't want Cao Yin to adopt him, so he pointed out to him a woman with a good background, status, a good match, and someone who was not easy to fool as his wife.
But the eldest brother didn’t know that Kangxi was actually still sulking in the Qianqing Palace because Cao Yin accepted the marriage, but he still said, “After much thought, it’s better to adopt an adopted son. Even if I have children in the future, Cao Shun will be allowed to marry again.” Just return to Cao Quan's knees."
Kangxi felt that he had worried for nothing and was so angry that he didn't want to speak.
Cao Yin sighed: "We have to smooth things over at home. We have lived together for the past few years and it is not easy to become too rigid. The emperor is kind and understanding, but family matters cannot be resolved with a single imperial edict."
"It's up to you. Anyway, I have chosen a daughter-in-law for you. You can just marry her back after the filial piety period." Kangxi said, "You can adopt her if you like. When you have a child, I will naturally make the decision."
Yinti was troubled by his elder brother, and as the wedding day approached, he became more and more... fearful. I don't know if it was premarital phobia, but no one in the Qing Dynasty could be a psychiatrist.
The eldest brother was so annoyed that he wanted to hit the wall. He couldn't say this to Concubine Hui, as it would frighten her. He couldn't tell Kangxi either. The emperor might think there was something wrong with him. He could have said that Rong Ruoyuan was in Morgan. .As for Uncle Mingzhu?
Haha, he will only smile with a smile on his face, happily excited about the marriage between his nephew and his best friend.
Yinti recently found a good place and went to a corner of the imperial garden to study. It was quiet and quiet, and no one bothered him. Moreover, since the prince was here and the eunuchs were outside, most people would avoid it.
There are also people who will brave the wind, except for the princes. Since they are not emperors, they are naturally princes.
The author has something to say: The prince is not crooked, he just has a small problem in the process of trying to observe and analyze the world. How does the sentence say "the route is wrong, the more knowledge, the more reactionary." This is the case with the prince.
