[Qing] Empress Xiao Chengren Reborn

In February of the 15th year of Kangxi, Shang Zhixin, the son of Pingnan King Shang Kexi, rebelled in Guangzhou.

In April, the county king Leerjin and Wu Sangui's army were defeated again in Taiping Street, and they retreated to Jingzhou to plead guilty.Although Xuan Ye reprimanded him for defending the land for three years without gaining an inch of merit, he still hoped that he would make meritorious deeds and redeem himself.

In July, Geng Jingzhong's Lieutenant Xu Guangwu saw that Zheng Jing's army was becoming more and more powerful, and Geng's army was in a state of panic, so he secretly sent someone with a letter to Ma Jiuyu, the guard general in Quzhou, and ordered the Qing army to enter Fujian as soon as possible.After more than a month, Ma Jiuyu sent his confidant to pay the money to the general and Prince Kang Jieshu.On the 21th, Ma Jiuyu led his army to detour through Changshan and Yushan, and entered Fujian through the Fenshui Pass at the mouth of the river.Jieshu ordered Ninghai General Lahada, Dutong Laita and other soldiers to follow behind.On the [-]th, the Qing army entered Xianxia Pass, a pass in Fujian Province, and Geng's guard, Xiancheng, surrendered. On the [-]st, the Qing army recovered Pucheng.

In August, the Qing army entered the Fujian pass Xianxia Pass, Liankepu City, Jianyang, Jianning and other prefectures and counties.After Zheng Jing also captured Zhang, Quan, and Tingfu, he regained Xinghua, and his troops pointed directly at Fuzhou, the provincial capital where Geng Jingzhong was based.At that time, the officers and soldiers of the Geng tribe guarding Chaozhou, Haicheng and other places surrendered to Zheng one after another, while Bai Xianzhong's troops were defeated by the Qing army in Jiangxi, losing Jianchang, Raozhou, Guangxin and other prefectures and counties. Zhejiang was blocked by the Qing army.Fuzhou is in danger.

In September, Laita and other Qing troops conquered Jianyang, Jianning and other prefectures.In the same month, Jieshu led the troops to Yanping, and Geng Jimei, the guard of the Geng tribe, surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in Kaesong.At the same time, Geng Jingzhong sent his son to offer a seal to surrender.

He was ordered by the general and Prince Kang to persuade Geng Jingzhong to surrender in the form of a military post. His letter said: "Zheng Jing has a grudge against you, and you should help the soldiers to attack and make meritorious deeds. How long will the enemy be a rebellion?" Xu thought he was safe. , still the king, guarding Fujian.Geng Jingzhong knew that there was nothing to be done, so he gave birth to his will.On the [-]th day of the same month, Geng Jingzhong shaved his hair and changed his clothes. He sent his son Geng Xianzuo and others to submit a seal to Jie Shu to surrender, and also welcomed the Qing army into the city.Over a month later, Jieshu led his troops to Fuzhou, and Geng Jingzhong led the civil and military officials out of the city to welcome the surrender, presenting the seals of his officers and soldiers.The Qing army entered the city to pacify the people, and spread the message to the counties and counties to which they belonged.Geng Jingzhong asked Jieshu for meritorious service and atonement.Xuanye ordered Geng Jingzhong to retain the prince of Jingnan, and to command his troops to conquer Zheng Jing in order to redeem himself.The soldiers of the Geng tribe will be retained according to their quota, and the rest will be arranged separately.He ordered his younger brother Geng Zhaozhong to be General Zhenping, stationed in Fuzhou, and ruled over the officers, soldiers and family members of Jingnan Prince's vassal.

In October, Jieshu led his troops to Fuzhou, and Geng Jingzhong went out of the city to meet them. The Qing army entered the city to calm the people and spread the message to all the prefectures and counties.Fulian took Zheng Jing's Xinghua, Quanzhou, Zhangzhou and other prefectures.

In February of the following year, except for Zheng Jingshang who occupied Xiamen, the Qing army recovered the whole province of Fujian.

In March of the following year, Geng Jingzhong, together with other Qing troops, led his troops to attack Chaozhou, and Liu Jinzhong from Zheng's department surrendered.

In August, Xuanye ordered Geng Jingzhong to remain in Chaozhou. In October 18, because the Manchurian soldiers in Fuzhou were about to evacuate, Xuan Ye worried that Geng Jingzhong would change again, so he wrote to Jie Jie to urge him to come to Beijing to see him. In the first month of the 21st year, after Geng Jingzhong's staff were all withdrawn from Fujian to the capital, Xuan Ye issued a decree: to remove Geng Jingzhong's prince, that is, Ling Chi was executed, his son Geng Xianzuo was dismissed and executed, and eight party members including Bai Xianzhong, Zeng Yangxing, and Liu Jinzhong Ling Chi was executed, Huang Guorui and 15 others were beheaded, and the heads of Geng Jingzhong and Liu Jinzhong were hung for public display.

In September of the 15th year of Kangxi, Geng Jingzhong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and Shang Zhixin became more and more lonely.Geng still stayed with Prince Jingnan, confirming what Xuan Ye once said, "If you lose your heart and repent, you are still allowed to reform."

In December, Shang Zhixin ordered people to come to General Yangwei and Prince Jian Labu's army with secret documents, and asked for permission to surrender.Rab played immediately.

In September, Xuanye ordered Shang Zhixin to pardon all his past crimes and his subordinate officers and soldiers, and he was allowed to make meritorious service and redeem himself. In May 16th, Shang Zhixin led the civil and military officers, soldiers and civilians in the city of Guangdong Province to shave their hair and surrender, and sent his younger brother Shang Zhiying to Shaozhou to meet the Qing army led by Zhennan General Mang Yitu.On the third day of June, Xuanye ordered Shang Zhixin to attack his father Shang Kexi, Prince of Nan, and sent troops to conquer Hunan.However, since then, Shang Zhixin has used various excuses to refuse to send troops, and the troops never leave the provincial capital.

In the first month of the 17th year, the Qing army was defeated by Wu Sangui's army one after another, and Guangxi was in crisis.Xuanye ordered Shang Zhixin to march into Guangxi quickly.Shang Zhixin already has police along the coast, and his troops are limited, so it is difficult to divide his troops to fight back.Again, Gao, Lei, and Lian prefectures have been preliminarily determined, but people's hearts are not stable, so please stay in Guangzhou. In July 18, Shang Zhixin said that his dysentery had worsened, and he arbitrarily withdrew the frontline soldiers from Hengzhou and other places to Guangzhou.In the meantime, when Yongxing was in crisis, he sat idly by and did nothing to save him; the teacher who was recruited secretly told him not to enter.Shang Zhixin is cruel by nature, drinking and hurting others is a common occurrence.For officials under the vassal who voted for the Qing Dynasty, he killed them without humiliation, which aroused great public indignation. In March 19, Shang Zhixin even went to Wuxuan, Guangxi.The guard Zhang Yongxiang and others rushed to the capital, where Shang Zhixin was the first to be accused of various crimes.Xuan Ye then ordered Yichang A, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, and Song Etuo, the doctor, to go to Guangdong in the name of patrolling the sea to investigate. If the evidence of the crime is convincing, Wang Guodong, the commander of the capital, can be ordered to arrest him.On May [-], Yichang A and Wang Guodong sent a message to the governor Jin Guangzu who was in Wuchang.Jin immediately encircled Wuchang, arrested Shang Zhixin and escorted him back to Guangzhou for execution.The situation in Guangdong and Guangxi gradually stabilized.

During the 15th and 16th year of Kangxi, only in June of the 15th year of Kangxi, the concubine Zhang Jia was diagnosed as pregnant, and Zhang Jia and her concubine Zhang Jia gave birth to a baby in February of the 16th year of Kangxi. The eleventh elder brother Yin Zhi.

In the first month of the 16th year of Kangxi, Xuan Ye transferred soldiers from Shaanxi and Henan, and advanced Hanzhong soldiers to supplement Jingzhou, so that Le Erjin took the opportunity to cross the river and regain Hunan without delaying the opportunity.

In February, the rebel officers and soldiers surrendered one after another.In March, the imperial court issued a decree to provide compensation for martyred officials and their families.

On July 29, Xuan Ye summoned great scholars Kabula, Li Wei and other ministers to talk about the harm of cronies, and ordered: People should submit to officials, but they should serve the public wholeheartedly.If you separate the sects and privately plant party feathers, the country will harm the government at the beginning, and the family will be harmed in the end.Looking at the previous generations, it is all the same.He clearly pointed out: Those who secretly form party members act secretly, but people must know that they are behind the public and private.Because when discussing people and discussing affairs, they must regard similarities and differences as right and wrong, likes and dislikes as praise and praise, it is difficult to tolerate public opinion, and the law of the country is inexcusable.Bai Erchen Gong, it is reasonable to quit!Ruofu attracts good people, does not boast of his own strengths, and works with colleagues to help the country.Just as Ouyang Xiu said in the Song Dynasty, if a gentleman is a friend, it is not allowed to talk about it.

The former dynasty was so busy, and the harem was not idle. Xuan Ye formulated the ranks of concubines in the harem in his busy schedule, and improved the incomplete system of concubines in the harem since the Shunzhi Dynasty. According to the people's clear decree, the subsequent canonization ceremony will be fully handled by the queen.

The decree conferred the title of Concubine Borjigit as Concubine Lan, Concubine Zhang as Concubine Rong, Concubine Dong as Concubine Duan, Concubine Nala as Concubine Hui, Concubine Hesheli as Concubine Xi , Concubine Li was registered as An Concubine, Concubine Guo Luoluo was registered as Concubine Yi, and Concubine Zhang Jia was registered as Concubine Jing.

This decree of sealing the harem entitles all the concubines who have given birth in the harem to the throne. Except for the noble concubine Lan Gui, they are all concubines. These people are all qualified to raise their own children. It's not that they can be kept by their side all the time, but before the elder brothers and princesses turn six years old, all concubines and concubines above the concubine can go to Zhaoxiang Institute or Nansan Institute to visit on their own. If you are studying and practicing calligraphy, you can't visit them by yourself, but you have to wait until the elder brothers go to the palaces after school to say hello to each other.

Moreover, after concubines and concubines give birth to elder brothers or princesses, they can be raised by their side until they are two years old before they are sent to live in Zhaoxiang Institute or Nansan Institute.

These rules were told to Xuanye by Zhujin, and Xuanye added them into the decree after considering it feasible, but these words were all said in the name of Zhujin, so that Zhujin won such a caring thing for the concubine Well, all the concubines and concubines are naturally grateful for the pearl brocade, and only this one, the pearl brocade has become more and more popular in the harem.

Among the decree of sealing the harem, only one person made an exception.

This is Xi Concubine Hesheli. When she was a concubine, she was not favored by Xuan Ye, and she never gave birth to a child for Xuan Ye. She should not have been promoted, but she is an old man who serves Xuan Ye. After all, Zhu Jin still felt sorry for her lonely life in the palace, thinking of her honest personality, and fearing that the new concubine would bully her, thinking of the friendship that came together back then, or talking to Xuan Ye, Xuan Ye is also pitiful She finally gave her the same concubine as in her previous life.

On this day, Ulan Qiqige, who has become a noble concubine, came to chat with Zhujin again, talking about Xuan Ye's favoring of a court lady recently, and called Xuan Ye shameless.

"Isn't there enough concubines in this harem? To actually pamper a court lady who serves tea and water, what's wrong with the emperor?"

Except that Wulanqiqige couldn't work hard when she was pregnant, she had always been helping Zhujin with the affairs of the harem. When Zhujin was pregnant and giving birth, she also took care of the affairs of the harem alone, so she lived for a long time. The superior, in addition to the bit of pungentness, added a bit of nobility of the superior, in front of Zhujin, she did not conceal her contempt and disgust for a court lady who could be superior, "She is a 12-year-old Kangxi The palace he entered was not selected from the draft, but was selected from the maids of the House of Internal Affairs! This Wu Ya family was born in Zhenghuangqi, and was dressed in the House of Internal Affairs. His grandfather was just the head of the dining room. Sister, You say such a person, with such a humble status, how can he be worthy of serving the emperor?"

"The emperor likes it, what can we say?"

Zhujin is no stranger to the Wuya family that Wulanqiqige said, she only smiled slightly and said, "I also know the Wuya family you are talking about, it was recently favored by the emperor. The court lady serving tea in the Qing Palace does delicate work and serves in front of the imperial court. She does everything she sees. It is her chance to be favored by the emperor. I just don’t know what this Wu Ya looks like? If she is beautiful , then it can't explain why the emperor likes her so much."

Zhujin is now 25 years old, and she knows very well that in the future there will be more teenage girls like Wu Yashi who are favored by Xuan Ye.

"What's so beautiful! My sister has never seen it before, so I don't know. That Wu Ya's appearance is ordinary, and she is a little better-looking than Xi Concubine. It really can't be called a beauty, not even a beauty! I really don't know what the emperor likes about her!"

Wulanqiqige snorted coldly, and said, "I heard that yesterday the emperor ordered Wu Yashi to live in her permanent residence. She has not been canonized yet, she is just a concubine, and she doesn't even have a promise." No, it's a blessing to be able to live in the pile without even competing for a little master! If she becomes pregnant, the emperor doesn't know what will happen!"

Wu Lanqiqige looked at Zhu Jin and said, "Sister, can't you persuade the emperor? After so many years, I have never seen the emperor like this!"
