The Princess of Fortune in Qing Dynasty

The next day, Shiliu dressed up and went to the main courtyard early to pay her respects to Er Niang.She heard a lot about the plants in the Earl's Mansion last night, and she also had a general understanding of the current situation in the capital, but she didn't show it, and she still pretended to be ignorant.

As a high-class Royal Gege, Duan Min naturally wore the court clothes that Duo Luogege only had.Shiliu is the daughter of the Earl's Mansion, and Erniang is the daughter of the clan, and the emperor also bestowed the title of Liupinge.She was wearing a big red satin jacket embroidered with pomegranate flowers, and on her feet were lambskin boots pinched with gold and embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, and she was covered with a ermine fur cloak.

She is still underage, and there are not many buns that can be combed. She only braids her hair into small braids and hangs behind her back, and the end of her hair is tied with a headband with pink gemstones.This attire coupled with her nonchalant and prestige demeanor gave her an overpowering aura that made people dare not look directly at her.

Looking at her daughter's attire, Duan Min nodded in satisfaction, "Go and get the ruby ​​earrings in my dressing box." My daughter also has red earrings on her ears, but Duan Min always feels that the red is opaque, which is not as good as her dressing box. The couple inside are pretty.

He replaced it casually for his daughter, and now she smiled with satisfaction.

She thought about it for a long time yesterday. Originally, she planned to make her daughter look ugly, so as not to be caught by the prince.But then thinking about her own identity, even if her daughter has a pockmarked face, as long as she is the earl's daughter, she may be selected as the crown princess.That being the case, she simply asked her daughter to be more high-profile, no matter how good-looking she was.

The mistress of the house is dignified and virtuous, and the concubine is enchanting and charming. Maybe the emperor thinks that his daughter is too good-looking and will change her.

Besides, she is not the only lady entering the palace today, but also her 'old enemy'.

After tidying up, Duan Min took the pomegranate to the next door consort's mansion to pay his respects, and then the four of them got into their carriages and set off into the palace.

Duanmin and Zhuang Jing's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law each took their maidservants in a carriage, Erzhen disliked being bored by herself, so she shared a carriage with Shiliu.Yesterday, I was worried that my little niece had just come back, and she didn't have time to talk properly, so I just took advantage of this time on the road to have a good chat.

"By the way, do you still remember that girl Dong E Wanrou?"

Dong E Wanrou?How could pomegranate not remember.Speaking of which, Dong E's family is also related to her family by marriage.

Dong E Wanrou's Ama is called Peng Chun, and belongs to Manchuria Bordered Red Banner.In terms of status, Dong E Wanrou is not inferior to Pomegranate at all. On the contrary, she is a first-class princess, and Er Niang is the fourth daughter of Prince Xun Mandahai, Duanmin's aunt.Wanrou was born in the 17th year of Kangxi, exactly one year younger than Pomegranate.

Perhaps it was because there was already a pomegranate in front of her, or because her surname was Dong E. In short, when she was born, the emperor did not educate her.The nurturing nun is nothing but a fig leaf, who doesn't understand what it means, which directly excludes her from the list of candidates for the crown princess.

Whether it's Wanrou or her forehead, how can she be reconciled.

When Shiliu was still in the capital, if she met two people when she went out as a guest, they would definitely be sarcastic.According to her seniority, she was Duan Min's sister-in-law. Duan Min couldn't be too presumptuous, but could only bear with it as much as possible.

It seems that today is not fifteen, could it be that she can still meet Wanrou in the palace?

Without waiting for Shiliu to speak, Erzhen continued: "In the past, she didn't always look for opportunities to show courteousness to the prince when she entered the palace, but now she has changed her mind and flattered the sixth elder brother." Luckily, she is still a prostitute, so she can really treat the royal family as blind.

Originally, the three giants in the palace didn't want to see Dong E's family because of the matter of Empress Xiaoxian, but she herself was so picky and wanted to have both sides.Hehe, thanks to Peng Chun being a first-class public, that's all it takes?

"Isn't that great?" Wanrou is only two years older than the sixth elder brother, and Dong E's family is also the family of the Duke, so if her family really has the heart, it may not be impossible.She doesn't care who Wanrou has her eyes on, but if she falls in love with Sixth Brother, at least she won't make trouble for herself, right?

Erzhen choked, and stretched out her claws to grab her cheek, "You, you, don't think that I don't know that she has troubled you before. Now that the prince has lost power, how do you know that she won't laugh at you. Her forehead Mother is also very short-sighted, how do you know that she won't blow the pillow on purpose to make Peng Chun talk to the emperor, and really make you marry the prince?"

Shiliu laughed out loud, and she said with a good temper: "Little aunt, I'm only seven years old, and it's too early for you to worry. Besides, the emperor is the king of a country, and he doesn't look like a fool. Chun can speak in a few words. Compared to me, you are little aunt, you are going to be drafted next year, don't you worry?"

It's not that she's boasting, her little aunt is really good, capable of writing and martial arts, she is outstanding in both riding and archery and poetry, but her temper is too straightforward. As an old fairy who doesn't know thousands of years in her heart, Pomegranate is always worried. After the little aunt gets married, she will be made things difficult by her in-laws.

Erzhen shrugged her shoulders, she wasn't worried, it was just the big families and clans in Beijing.

"What's going on, why did the carriage stop?" The two of them were talking when they felt the carriage stop, and Erzhen signaled the maid in the carriage to go out and ask about the situation.There is a time to enter the palace to pay respects, but it can't be sloppy.

The maid nodded to the two, and went out to inquire about the situation. In fact, she didn't need to deliberately inquire. She opened the curtain to understand what was going on.

"Reporting to the two princesses, they are driving with the carriage of the Duke's Mansion." This is not the first time that Erzhen knows who it is without her having to say which Duke's Mansion it is.

She raised her eyebrows and sneered, "I knew there would be moths in her family. The empress dowager has not been in good health for the past two years, but we are specially ordered by her old man. If Dong E's family dares to do this, will they not be afraid of the empress dowager's anger?"

"Do you really think you can do whatever you want by currying favor with the sixth elder brother and concubine De? A wrapped imperial concubine and the elder brother born to the wrapped imperial concubine are worthy of the Dong E family's groveling. It's a shame for our nobles."

There are no plants on the side of the road or in the carriage in winter, and Shiliu can't know what's going on ahead. To be honest, she is also curious.

My family is only the Earl's Mansion, and the rules are very strict. It stands to reason that the Duke's Mansion must be even worse, but watching the behavior of Dong E's family, it is not the case.She once heard the old trees in the mansion gossiping, saying that the former emperor's Empress Xiaoxian was a "sexy" woman.

She was clearly the younger brother's first wife, but she turned around and hooked up with the late emperor, which made her husband mad.Not only that, the current empress dowager and the empress dowager often quarreled with the former emperor because of the empress filial piety, and it is said that the empress dowager was mad at them more than once.Today's Eniang is also living a hard life because of Xiaoxian Empress.

This Empress Xiaoxian is also from the Dong E family, and she is a close relative of Wanrou's family who has not been out of Wufu.Now that the first emperor has passed away, it stands to reason that her family should keep a low profile, but judging by the behavior of the Wanrou mother and daughter, this is not the case at all. These two people are not afraid of really annoying the Empress Dowager. Refers to a marriage?

To be honest, as a plant, she understands the truth. I don’t know if Dong E’s family really doesn’t understand or pretends not to understand?Or maybe they feel that the emperor needs them now, so they won't let the empress dowager do whatever they want?

The collision of the carriages between the two mansions was indeed intentional by Dong E's family. Today, not only the Earl's mansion received the Queen Mother's order, but also several meritorious families, Dong E's mansion is one of them.

Originally, Fujin and Shuo Jiayang Gege who were able to be summoned by the Empress Dowager to Peng Chun were excited, but when she found out that the Empress Dowager summoned Duan Min at the same time, and only handed it to them after summoning Duan Min, she was very upset. Happy.

To say that Jiayang and Duanmin didn't actually have much enmity, all of this was caused by the knighthood.

Jiayang is the fourth daughter of Prince Xun Man Dahai, her biological mother is Man Dahai, who is born after Fujin, while Duanmin's Ama Chang Adai is the first son, but she is born of Fujin.Before the Qing army entered the customs, and even in the early Shunzhi period, the Manchu people had three wives and four concubines.The so-called three wives are the three Fujins on both sides of the first wife, so the sons born by the side Fujin also enjoy the same treatment as those born to the first wife.

Man Dahai passed away, and Chang Adai was fine.

But Jiayang didn't think so, she felt that her younger brother was more qualified than Chang Adai, and she made a lot of trouble because of this matter.

Later, Chang Adai was demoted to become Baylor because of his father's crimes. The Holy Majesty made it very clear that he was demoted because of Man Dahai's affairs.She even made Chang Adai and his children look bad because of Peng Chun, the Duke of the state.

Duanmin is her daughter, she is from the clan, and she meets a lot of times, and she is also the one she ridicules and looks down on the most.

Now she was summoned by the Empress Dowager because of Duanmin, and she couldn't let go of her tone, so she asked people to wait on the street early the next day, waiting for the Shi family's carriage to come, and deliberately crossed it.

Dong E's family is the Duke of the state. When the two carriages met, in order to show respect, they were naturally allowed to go first.

If others had already left politely, Jiayang deliberately asked the coachman to slow down, and she sat in the carriage and drank tea leisurely.

Zhuang Jing sat in the carriage, first opened the curtain and looked at the carriage deliberately blocking the way in front, with the same sneer on her face as Erzhen: "This Jiayang is really getting better and better, it's a disgrace to the royal family." Zhuang Jing She is the daughter of Prince Su Hauge, and Hauge is the son of Huang Taiji. In terms of status, Zhuang Jing is much more noble than Jiayang.

Seeing that it would be too late if it was delayed any longer, and there might be another moth in Jiayang on the way forward, Zhuang Jing got out of the carriage with the help of her maid.

She walked to Jiayang's carriage, and without waiting for him to get off, she said coldly: "Jiayang, have you had enough trouble? Are you not afraid that what happened today will reach Peng Chun's ears and make him annoy you? Or do you think the Empress Dowager will not know what you have done?"

The Shi family is different from the Duke's mansion. The Shi family is close to the Han people, and has many contacts with civil servants. They pay attention to 'respecting the first wife' and 'can only accept concubines if they have no children for forty years'.Whether it is Shi Wenbing, Shi Huashan or Shi Yanzhu, there are not many concubines in the mansion, the only few concubines are the "trial marriage princess" given before the wedding.

Peng Chun is different, there are five or six people in his family including side Fujin, although Jiayang is a Fujin, but he is not favored, only has the title of wife.

Is Jiayang afraid of Peng Chun?Naturally I was afraid.

She snorted twice, not daring to get angry at Zhuang Jing, so she could only turn her finger on the coachman, "What are you doing in a daze, the mansion doesn't care about your food? The lazy donkey grinds things, and your family's life was delayed. Not enough to fill it in."

Zhuang Jing frowned, Jiayang's temper really grew, and his words became more and more mean.But after all, it was the slave of Dong E's family. She didn't say much, seeing that the other party was driving normally, she returned to the carriage.
