The Harem of the Qing Dynasty - the next era

That night, Han Ling still mentioned Hongluo's errand at dinner.

Hongli explained: "Hongluo's knowledge is acceptable, but his temperament is a little impetuous. I mean, teach him to read for two years first."

"You can't just let him look around like this." Han Ling reminded her husband, "If the Empress Dowager is alarmed, wouldn't it appear that you, an older brother, despise your younger brother?"

Hongli nodded: "That's the reason, but if Hongluo was serious, he probably wouldn't work hard on you."

After a few days, Hongli issued a decree, ordering Prince Guo Hongluo to manage the affairs of Wuying Hall and Yushu Office.

And then—there is no then.

Cheng Shuang was speechless except that he was speechless: this sixth master is really a brave man, he is not at all concealed about his behavior of only getting in and out.

In Hongli administration, he followed the example of Emperor Kangxi, the holy ancestor. From the current point of view, except for the huge difference in the number of children, he has basically followed suit in other aspects. In his political career, Emperor Kangxi has traveled to the south of the Yangtze River six times. This year In winter, the current emperor's visit to the south of the Yangtze River is also on the court's agenda.

Going to the south of the Yangtze River is not as good as going to the north of Saipan. It is a place where you can enjoy happiness and nourish your spirit. Since it is a good place, Hongli can't just care about his own happiness. His wife, daughter-in-law, and children are all included in the list of public travel.

Han Ling pushed her directly: "I have to watch Shu Bin, and when Elder Brother Ten lands safely, I will accompany you to England."

"Alright." First, there will be opportunities to take her on a southern tour in the future; second, no prince has been born in the harem for many years, and Hongli also pays more attention to Shu Concubine's belly; Jin Feng, it was so easy to wait until Han Ling lost the excuse for delaying the queen's appointment, so of course he had to settle this important matter as soon as possible.

Next, to discuss the candidates for accompanying concubines, Han Ling named the four names of Concubine Gui, Concubine Jia, Na Guiren, and Lin Changzai. It is easy to take it with you for daily life and go to bed.

On the next day, Han Ling announced the escort arrangement when all the concubines paid their respects. Naturally, everyone was happy to be selected, and there was nothing to say about those who were not selected (one was not daring, and the other was that the imperial concubine herself stayed in Beijing), and the first one Su Guifei first confessed to the imperial concubine: "Master and empress have worked so hard in the capital, but instead taught us to enjoy the blessings of driving with us. How can this teach the ministers and concubines to feel sorry for themselves?"

Han Ling smiled and said: "You and Concubine Jia have to serve the Empress Dowager, take care of the Emperor, restrain the accompanying princes and palace servants, and maybe even meet the wives in the south. You are no less leisurely than I am in the palace, and can let the wind go. Looking at the beautiful mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River is worthy of my envy."

Concubine Jia cared more about her son: "Master, Madam, let's go with you, I don't know how the prince and princesses will arrange it."

Han Ling said: "The fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, and the sixth elder brother must accompany the driver. The empress dowagers of the two palaces will probably bring Si Gege and Wu Gege with them, and the eighth elder brother and Liu Gege will stay. This palace will naturally take care of them. .”

Concubine Jia thanked her for her grace, and she already had some calculations in her heart: it would be great to take this opportunity to bring back another elder brother.

Regardless of whether they are accompanied or not, the concubines cannot express any objection, and it is their son who is difficult to deal with.

Yong Jue heard that his name was not included in the list of the Southern Tour, and immediately ran to Qianqing Palace to fight independently. Hongli originally wanted to bring his youngest son to the south, but Han Ling did not let go, and was quite serious. Warn the child's father: "Sunri is under my eyes, and you have made him lawless. If you are far away, you can still do it? He is stubborn. Jiangnan is a land with many waters. He has already been taken out. Can you always Can you keep him under control? Yongxi and Yongjue, you can only take one out, if you really can't bear it, you can leave Yongxi behind."

Carrying Yongxi has a political purpose. Hongli wanted to let those southern scholars see how the heirs of the Qing Dynasty were so talented, lest they not know the good and the bad and then talk about the Huayi theory.

He said in a high-sounding manner that the southern tour is a serious matter, and at least it is a priority to play with the mountains and waters. Hongli could not let go easily, because he said to his son: "This is what your mother decided, it is really not possible, you can go to the Empress Dowager and say love."

Only then Yong Jue bowed and knelt down, skipping and jumping towards Ningshou Palace.

The one who understands women best is women, and the empress mother and empress dowager didn't intend to interfere with Hanling's decision, because she said to her grandson: "Your brother and sister have followed, and my sister is young, so I won't leave you to look after the house. You can't rest assured, be good, next time you go out, I will definitely let your Ama take you with you."

Yong Jue pouted, and the voice of protest was not as determined as before. The nuns of Ningshou Palace smiled knowingly, and coaxed him again: "Don't you like riding and shooting the most? This time you can't go to the south of the Yangtze River." , the emperor will definitely compensate you, there is something about Qiu Mi hunting, the imperial concubine can't stop you anymore, right? Jiangnan can't run horses - in case you make the imperial concubine angry this time, if you can't go to Mulan, just go The gain outweighs the loss."

"Little Overlord" then stopped.

How can Yong Jue understand the painstaking efforts of being a mother? Just look at the list of accompanying drivers. The imperial concubine and concubine Jia who accompanied the driver had children to stay, and the concubine Yu who did not accompany the driver had a son to follow. By the way, since he stayed in the palace, how can he release both sons with confidence?Once there is a mistake, there is nowhere to look for if you want to cry.

Knowing that the result cannot be changed, Yong Jue pouted and was very unhappy. Han Ling was about to tease him, but Zhang Lei went into his heart and said, "Mistress, our third uncle is here."

Han Ling got up and sat back on the main seat, because she said to Zhang Lei, "Tell him to come in."

After a while, Neli entered the hall to salute: "The slave greets the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine is auspicious; the slave greets the ninth elder brother, and the ninth elder brother is auspicious."

"Excuse me, give me a seat." Sige is busy with government affairs now, and has left some affairs related to Jingren Palace to Nali for arrangement. Han Ling also knows his painstaking efforts to promote a complete reconciliation with her natal family, but she has never shown it Obvious resistance comes.

Nali thanked her, and because her nephew was present, she picked up unimportant New Year's preparations and chatted with her sister about family affairs. After a cup of tea, Han Ling told Yong Jue: "Go and pay your respects to the Empress Dowager, come back Write two more pages in large characters and hand them over to me for review."

After clearing the scene, Neli pointed to the main topic: "Long live Lord is on a tour to the south in the first month. I heard that the empress does not accompany the driver. Did our clan prince follow?"

"Yeah." Han Ling explained, "Pin Shu's belly is getting bigger and bigger, I have to watch her closely, since you didn't come over just now, Yong Jue is entangled with me because of this matter."

Nali said with a smile: "Brother Jiu is still young, there will always be opportunities like this in the future."

Han Ling casually told her younger brother: "You are working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the empress dowagers of the two palaces are going south this time, so the preparations should be more thorough."

"Hey." Nali hesitated for a moment, because he asked his elder sister, "Your Majesty, I don't know who is accompanying Prince Zong to take care of him?"

Han Ling was stunned: "How do you say that? Could it be that Yuqing Palace's slaves have gone out of their way?"

"Slave doesn't mean that." Nari explained hesitantly, "Slave wants to ask——Slave wants to ask—"

Han Ling frowned: "There are no outsiders here, so it's okay to speak up if you have something to say, can I still blame you?"

"The servant wants to ask my mother if she has arranged for the people in the house to serve the prince!" Nali finally breathed a sigh of relief, and told her sister about her nephew's private life, which was really awkward to the extreme.

Han Ling had a serious face: "How to say?"

"Mother, the south of the Yangtze River is a land of fireworks, and the princes of the clan will accompany them. If they are not complete, the magistrates will respect them—in short, we must be careful, and the damage to our reputation is a small matter—" Nali finally said quickly, "What if Injury to the body, wouldn't it be in vain to live up to the expectations of the Long Live Lord—"

Nali was heartbroken about this (he took his eldest son or eldest daughter in), thinking of this section, he immediately reminded Sige that Yongxi is related to the honor and disgrace of the three generations of the Nala family, and the four Ge praised his younger brother again and again, and finally let him go to Jingren Palace to analyze the pros and cons with his sister.

Han Ling stood up with a "shua" sound: "Thanks for mentioning it, I almost overlooked this important matter!"

The season of warm spring and flowers blooming, the Jiangnan with a sense of spring, the age when the spring heart is sprouting, and the Chu Pavilion where the spring butterflies flutter - charcoal and sulfur rely on the stove, and there will be a puff of yellow smoke even if it is not fried. Han Ling must admit that she is too much. Careless.

Of course, Han Ling was not only thinking about her half-year-old son, Yu Zi and her husband, but more about the emperor's husband who was so close to him.

After all these years of getting along, I thought I had a tacit understanding with Hongli, but I never thought that the other party was subconsciously unwilling to take me on a tour of the south of the Yangtze River—who would take the yellow-faced woman at home to go outside for romance?It's still this person—as long as she nods her head, she can immediately give her the honor and status of motherhood—and in the eyes of the world, these two things are not contradictory.

After sending her younger brother away, Han Ling went to the pharmacy and took two Ningxiang pills, barely suppressing the hot poison in her chest and abdomen.

That night, Hongli turned over Kui Changzai's signboard, and Hanling sent a message to Princess Hehui to send Yongjue to Ningshou Palace to have dinner with Empress Dowager Chongyuan, and then sent the palace staff to Yuqing Palace Yongxi called over to talk about the family life.

Since they are close relatives, there is no need to beat around the bush when talking. Yongxi comforted his mother: "A serious show girl has never thought about it, let alone a firework girl who is a foreigner? Just rest assured, my son is not ignorant." A person who cleans himself and loves himself."

"You understand the truth, I have to analyze it for you more clearly so that you can know the mechanism and connection." Han Ling pointedly said to her son, "It's a filial heart for a foreign minister to give you Ama as a gift. If you set your mind on you, it must be framed. Come to think of it, it is really beneficial to you. If Er Niang can do it, go ahead. Is it their turn to be courteous? This matter is yours. What the third uncle thought of, what kind of losses he has suffered, so I don't need my mother to repeat it to you, right?"

"What Er Niang said is true." Yong Xi became more transparent, "The son is not clear about this, so he is not worthy to be Amang Er Niang's son."

The author has something to say: the epidemic is serious, everyone can hide at home, and reading books is also good.
