Qin Ji was a little afraid of everyone, not only because the other party was older than him and taller and stronger, but more importantly, he was the apprentice of the general manager of the consulting firm...
Manager Gu, the emperor has entrusted everything in the palace to him, the first among the eunuchs! Although his master Gao Bage is also the manager, but the master has been a concubine for so many years, his master, the manager, is nothing more than the Yanxi Palace
The "head eunuch" of the side hall is really incomparable.
However, none of them meant to bully him. They all understood that their master sent him here because the emperor asked the older eunuchs to take care of his son. In addition, because he had studied Buku, there was no problem in enlightening the eldest brother.
So when the two nuns got into the fight, they all immediately gave Qin Ji a wink and said, "Quickly go into the bedroom to find my brother!"
The maid of honor at the head office was helping Yin'a change clothes after going to the toilet. Yin'a wiped her face and brushed her teeth. When Qin Jile ran in, he asked casually: "Someone seems to be talking outside, what's wrong with Grandma Chen?"
"
"Brother, Grandma Chen and Grandma New are quarreling!"
The towel was thrown away by Yin A: "Go and have a look!" The eldest palace maid Tanzhi behind chased to help Yin A fasten the buttons. Yin A looked impatient. Ancient clothes were really difficult to wear, especially pants... It all depends on
If you tie it with a rope, will your pants really not fall off?
"Sister Chen, I'm not telling you, it's okay for my brother to be outside. Now he should return to the palace according to the palace time." A sharp female voice came over: "I have to teach my brother some rules and get up early.
Send the emperor to court!"
Aunt Chen did not give in: "Did the emperor give an explanation? My brother didn't go to school seriously, and now the palace is not on time. Even if it is to say hello to the two queen mothers, should I let my brother go there so early in the morning? Oh, by the way, I'm talking to the emperor.
Does the Queen Mother have breakfast?"
Yin A wanted to laugh when he heard this. He, as a nanny, was not an economical person. Hearing this, the other party was just sent from the palace. Maybe he wanted to avoid getting into trouble with the nanny, so he had better pretend not to hear it. It would not be good on the first day.
Just drive people away.
"Brother is out!"
A group of people outside knelt down to say hello. Yin A was still a little uncomfortable, but it didn't matter. He looked around and saw all the eunuchs. This tall boy was standing next to the two nuns, as if he was afraid that they would make a move.
.
"What's going on today? Breakfast is at the first place or somewhere, and I want to go and play with my eldest sister during the day." Yin A jumped on the chair and sat down by herself, and asked a series of questions, not to mention Grandma Chen.
Mom, the new grandma is also confused.
Young brothers at this age are always being controlled and obedient. How can there be such a master who makes clear arrangements for himself?
Aunt Chen didn't say anything, and the new Aunt Jingqi stepped forward and said, "My slave, Hadari, please give my regards to the eldest brother."
"Oh, please get up."
Qiandong Wusuo also has a small dining room and a tea room, and there is always an imperial doctor guarding it. Now the eldest brother is the only one living in the Tou Institute. The emperor has sent Manager Gu to tighten the strings for them several times, so the dining room is naturally in a hurry to fawn over him.
Facing a table of various dishes, Yin A felt a little hard to make a choice for the first time.
Which kind should I eat? Steamed buns with various fillings, or porridge? Or milk/seeds with snacks? From the perspective of physical development, of course I have to eat meat. I have decided to eat steamed buns, drink milk, and then eat a small bowl.
stew!
Hadari was left alone, and Grandma Chen just wanted to laugh when she saw her. Their eldest brother was really... But this also reminded Grandma Chen that as her brother grows up, he will become more and more capable.
The idea is that you should also take Hadari as a warning.
When Yin'a was full, the eunuch sent out also came back: "Brother, the emperor has told me that I can go to Cining Palace to pay my respects and read with Da Gege."
Ji Lan had already begun to learn Manchu and Mongolian, and Yin'a just happened to go to keep her company. So, Yin'a, who had eaten and drank enough, slowly set off from the starting point, surrounded by at least a dozen eunuchs in front and behind, making a grand gesture. Went to Cining Palace.
When passing by Longfu Gate, Yin A asked: "Has Khan Amma gone to court already?"
Qin Ji knew this, so he could only shake his head. Those who had been silent all the time said: "Back to the eldest brother, the emperor is still listening to the government at the imperial gate. You can see it later. When the listening to the government at the imperial gate is over, the emperor will I usually go to say hello to the two Queen Mothers at Sishi."
Yin A nodded. As expected, everything worked. As an apprentice in a consulting firm, he knew and knew many people and things, which would help him adapt to palace life.
Sure enough, at the quarter of the hour, the imperial court hearing had already begun. Yin'a stopped and stood at the door of Yuehua, just in time to see that screens, imperial cases and imperial couches had been set up under the Qianqing gate, and the courtiers were lined up at the bottom of the steps. A eunuch was trotting to deliver the memorial.
Such a big battle, is this just a matter of listening to the government?
One after another, the courtiers came up from the east stairs, or several people, to make memorials in front of the emperor. General court affairs would be written in the imperial newspaper, and memorials were just the responses or opinions of officials in Beijing above the fourth rank on something. Here is The place of director is not the core of power of the empire.
Yin A watched until everyone reminded him that it was time to leave. A group of people passed in front of the Yangxin Hall, and he looked back at the South Study Room behind the Qianqing Gate, which was the core of power in the Kangxi Dynasty. The people inside enjoyed power. , also takes responsibility, but that is not what Yin A needs to focus on.
Cining Palace is a good place, but also a bit troublesome. Because the two empress dowagers basically do not speak Chinese here. The empress dowager and empress dowager speak Mongolian, and use Manchu when explaining their servants.
When Kangxi came down to pay his respects, he would accommodate the two old ladies and speak Mongolian, so...it was fortunate that Ji Lan was with him, otherwise Yin'a would have cried.
Although the language is a bit difficult, Yin'a is still very comfortable. Apart from Ji Lan as his playmate, he is very comfortable in Cining Palace. The queen mothers of the two palaces are not particularly strict with their children, so every day Yin'a comes to say hello in the morning , and then he and Ji Lan would learn Manchu and Mongolian together, and when Kangxi came to court, he would give them both a test.
At this time, the two Queen Mothers would also join in, often laughing because of the children's little mistakes, and the Queen Mother and the Emperor would communicate more, and the Queen Mother seemed particularly happy.
After that, Yin A and Ji Lan would rest and have a meal together in Cining Palace. Later, they could play around in Cining Palace, play shuttlecock, and play spinning tops. In the evening, they would return to Yanxi Palace to spend time with E Niang. Nalan had snacks together, and mother and son also spoke Manchu.
Modern people all know that if you want to learn a language, the best environment is immersion. If you are in a stable language environment, you will naturally learn it. Even if it is a second or third language, immersion is better than other methods. quick.
What's more, Yin'a had some experience in Solji's family before. As a result, his language learning has improved by leaps and bounds. For example, he just now learned that Jilan's full name is Hajilan, and there is a close and friendly relationship between relatives. mean.
Starting from the name in this way, Yin A actually found some interest. It is quite interesting to mix bilingualism with his own Chinese character recovery method.
Because he left his elder brother's house early every day and didn't go back until evening, Nanny Hadari was at peace with her original person. In this way, Yin'a's first month in the Forbidden City passed like this. From now on,
Adapted very well in all aspects.
"It would be better to have more children in the palace." In the Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager mentioned this again. The Empress Dowager simply couldn't laugh or cry. What could this have touched her heart?
The Queen Mother continued: "Mother, have you noticed that Ji Lan is becoming more and more lively? When he first entered the palace, the child leaned against you and did not dare to move. I coaxed him, and then he followed us. There are still more boys.
More, I can take my sister and sister around more."
"There will be more." Although she was not directly worried about the emperor, the Empress Dowager was very pleased that the Empress Dowager could say this. "The Nala family's brother Wan Fu will also grow up, and the Ma Jia family will also have another child."
When you are pregnant, one by one, the children will stand still."
"It's you." The Empress Dowager suggested, "When the Emperor comes, you can also ask the Prince if he is okay."
"My wife understands."
Judging from the expression on the Queen Mother's face, I don't know if she really understands... The Queen Mother shook her head and took her time.
The Queen Mother seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said: "When I mentioned the prince, my wife remembered something. Mother, when the emperor was still the third elder brother, after returning to the palace, you asked him to stand with the kings.
After the late Emperor goes to court, my brother will start studying. Now that Baoqing is five years old, do you want him to start working too?"
"..." The Empress Dowager was silent for a long time. As a daughter-in-law, if you say she is smart, you cannot really say that. But if you say she is stupid, sometimes she will ask some key questions, but this question cannot be clarified.
Back then, the Empress Dowager valued Xuan Ye, so she naturally had to focus on cultivating him. But now that there is a crown prince in the palace, it is not a bad thing for the eldest son of the emperor, Yin A, to be a little more low-key. Whether it is studying or attending court, wait a minute.
These are only good for their little brothers.
At this moment and that moment, she did not respond to the Empress Dowager, only saying, "Don't worry, we will talk about it later."
Now that Empress Renxiao's mourning period has completely passed, although there is no empress in the palace, on festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival, even if there is a war, there must be someone in the harem who stands up to lead the greetings to the empress dowagers of the two palaces.
To put it bluntly, after Emperor Kangxi's wedding, except for the Niu Hulu family, the other concubines, such as the Nalan family, Ma Jia family, etc., were all untitled. Even if they were given the title of concubine because they gave birth to a prince.
Even though they enjoy certain benefits, they don’t have a title level!
I don’t know what Kangxi and the Empress Dowager were thinking, or maybe it had something to do with the late Empress Renxiao, who just didn’t have a title. Therefore, in this scene, Concubine Niu Hulu can only take the lead, with the current people in the palace.
A woman salutes the Queen Mother.
As for the rank of his mother Nalan, Yin'a was not very worried. He vaguely remembered that he would be canonized in the future. It's just that Kangxi liked to be canonized in batches at a fixed time, so just wait. Anyway, his mother was old enough and she didn't suffer any grievances.
.
Yin A did not see these concubines and concubines, because he and Ji Lan were caught by Kangxi early in the morning on the long road between the East Sixth Palace and Ningshou Palace. The two of them were about to start learning to ride horses!
The people who taught them were also acquaintances. One was his cousin Chengde, whom Yin a saw when he woke up at Solji's house that day, and the other was the guard Cao Yin. Yin a smiled when he saw them.
They were still young, and although they tried to be steady, they gave him a toothy smile in return.
Kangxi also changed his clothes, and Yin'a and Ji Lan also changed into their traveling clothes early. A crowd of people surrounded them, and a tall horse and two ponies were also ready.
"Yin a!"
Kangxi was letting the eunuch Li Yu take Ji Langge to get on the horse. Without taking care of him, his good son pulled the saddle and climbed up by himself. Others did not dare to shout loudly, but threatened his elder brother and made him fall off.
