The story of the salted fish concubine raising cubs in Qing Dynasty

Only children can say domineering words in a cute and cute way.

Seeing the seriousness on Yinfeng's face, Mingxuan immediately picked him up, kissed him deeply, rubbed his little head, and said with great satisfaction: "Safe, safe, we are all going to be safe."

Yinfeng nestled in Mingxuan's arms, enjoying his aunt's somewhat unashamed kiss, and rolled his eyes with joy.

Holding the little prince in her arms, Mingxuan directly forgot about the troubles in the harem, and she didn't care whether Niu Hulu had figured it out. The harem didn't need too much sympathy, otherwise this day would be impossible. .

Ming Xuan didn't want to worry about it, but on New Year's Eve, the emperor specially ordered Ming Xuan to deal with the affairs of Jingren Palace, which still caused a huge commotion in the harem.

It seems to be the instinct of everyone in the harem to speculate on the holy will, so Mingxuan not only received careful and thoughtful care from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but also a lot of attention from the concubines of the harem. I want to invite Mingxuan to the theater.

"I don't understand, don't go!" Ming Xuan directly refused.

Although it wasn't snowing much, it was still cold.

On such a cold day, wouldn't it be nice to roll around in the palace?Isn't it delicious to eat hot pot?

Why do you have to go out to blow the cold wind?

Not only did Tong Jia's invite her down, but Ming Xuan didn't attend any of the gatherings in the harem.

Ming Xuan really felt more at ease with Chun Ni and the others.

Chunni was knocking on walnuts with a small hammer, breaking the pieces for herself to eat, and giving the good ones to Mingxuan. The master and servant were talking leisurely.

Not long after, Ulan also sat down and took over the work of cracking the walnuts, but she didn't use a small hammer, and the walnuts opened with a single hammer.

Ming Xuan looked at the shattered walnuts that had been photographed, and touched Ulan's hand with a face full of shock. The walnuts now are not an improved version of paper-skinned walnuts. Most people have to smash them if they want to eat them.

Therefore, Ulan showed such a trick so suddenly that Mingxuan and Chunni were astonished.

Mingxuan and Chunni kept applauding at the side, Ulan's face was flushed, joy was revealed in her eyes, and the movements of her hands became even more fierce.

Never thought that shooting a walnut would make her master so happy, Ulan felt that she had found something to do, and was full of joy!

The more you shoot, the better Ulan can control his strength. Slowly, he even just smashes the walnut shells without hurting the pulp.

The three of them stopped after eating a few, but because Ulan took too many pictures, and seeing this pile of walnuts, Mingxuan happily asked them to find a small stone mill to grind walnuts, black sesame seeds, and fried walnuts. Black Dou, inspire to be a beautiful girl who never goes bald.

The three of them were laughing and laughing leisurely in the hall, and the palace servants who were sweeping the snow outside the hall couldn't help but crane their necks to look at it, with a smile on their faces unconsciously.

The old people who have been immersed in the harem all the year round, it is rare to live a leisurely and relaxed life without worrying about being punished, and there will be a life of dependence in the future, most of them are content.

Only Nanny Liu was full of thoughts and said worriedly: "What is the meaning of this, master? Concubine Tong Jiashu has always been favored, so it's not good if I don't go?"

Since the emperor trusts his master and entrusts him with important tasks, shouldn't he step up his efforts to fight for favor or power?

Concubine Tong Jiashu is the most favored in the palace, Liu Nanny really can't understand why the master refuses to befriend her?

Just do nothing like this, when there are more princes in the palace, how can you protect the prince with no power, power or favour?

Nanny Qiu was holding a cup of hot milk tea in her hand, but she kept talking to her with her eyes closed.

She could tell that the master of Yongshou Palace was very stubborn, and besides, her temperament was not one of striving for favor and power.Because of this, the empress dowager and the emperor can let the prince have friendship with them, can't they?

Grandma Liu couldn't wait for a response, so she scolded the old man secretly in her heart, a little worried for the prince, and planned to talk to Nanny Ling to see what could be done?

"During this time, Nanny Liu has always reminded the slaves not to forget their backgrounds." After grinding a small jar of walnut powder, Ulan said suddenly when she saw Nanny Liu passing by the entrance of the hall.

Ming Xuan turned to look at her and asked, "Did she make things difficult for you?"

Grandma Liu was arranged by her family. Without her, there will be Grandma Wang and Grandma Zhang in the future...

Although Mingxuan didn't like her behavior of always tipping off her family, it was easy to use. She had many acquaintances in the palace, and some things would be more effective with less effort.

But if she crossed the line and touched the people around her...then it would be hard to keep her.

Wu Lan shook her head, Liu Mama mentioned it twice, every time she said it again, Wu Lan would silently recite the boxing formulas in her heart, and then passed by. If she hadn't seen her today, she might not have remembered it!

So he quickly replied: "It's just a bit of nagging, but there is no embarrassment. But...after New Year's Eve, Liu Mama reminded the servants to ask the servants to mention the six characters of the family in front of the prince, saying that they are more beautiful. Like a queen."

Mingxuan paused, then turned her head and said, "We don't like pimping." The sixth younger sister in the family is not yet 11 years old!What's the hurry?

Chunni frowned and said, "Could it be that you've heard about Niu Hulu's Little Gege, so you're in a hurry?"

Little Gege from Niu Hulu's family walked around the palace and gained a reputation as a fairy. Maybe the mansion is also moved?

Mingxuan said calmly, "How old are you, and you want to enter the palace...do you really treat the emperor like a beast?"

Although there is no one who is not a beast to be an emperor, otherwise since ancient times, how many people can not be good at women?

But rushing to the palace at the age of ten is simply challenging the limits of the three views of human beings.

It's not that Mingxuan is talking to Kangxi, but as far as it is concerned, what Kangxi likes are mature women in their 20s, such as Tong Jia, Ma Jia, and Wu Ya.

And the concubines who entered the palace after a while were all seventeen or eighteen years old.

For this reason, Mingxuan felt that the current Kangxi still had a bottom line, and in his eyes, he would never fall in love with the so-called ten-year-old girl Tianxian'er.At most... At most, wait until this girl is old enough to be drafted and selected into the palace.

Even Xiao Tianxian couldn't do it, let alone his own sixth younger sister who wanted to compare with others.

Chun Ni suddenly covered Ming Xuan's mouth, looked outside, then lowered her head and said: "Master, keep your voice down."

Ming Xuan nodded before she let go.

After smashing the walnuts, Ulan was always looking around to see if there was a chance to show off his strength.Just now, the adoring gazes of Master Cai and Chunni made her whole body feel comfortable.

Seeing her looking around, Ming Xuan recalled the time when she ate roasted chestnuts together in Chaoyang nunnery, and said, "Wulan, you go to the imperial dining room and ask for a few catties of chestnuts. Let's roast them in the brazier."

Ulan's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he went happily.As a result, not long after leaving the house, he came back again and said repeatedly: "The servant girl looked at Concubine Tong Jiashu from a distance and seemed to be coming."

Ming Xuan was a little puzzled, Tong Jia's family was in Chengqian Palace in the East Palace, and because the West Palace was close to the Compassion Palace, the Empress Dowager always showed her dislike for Tong Jia's family.

So she can't come unless necessary, what's the matter now?

Without thinking too much, Mingxuan asked Chunni and Mother Qiu to help her dress up and put on appropriate clothes for entertaining guests.

When choosing jewelry, I suddenly thought of the two boxes given by Kangxi, and asked someone to find them, and picked two to wear on my head.

As soon as it was brought, Tong Jiashi arrived.

Mingxuan looked at Tong Jia who was not too cold and didn't even wear a mask, she was a little surprised and said, "Sister Tong Jia, happy new year? How is your body?"

Tong Jiashi glanced at Mingxuan's attire, her eyes flickered uncomfortably, and then she covered her mouth and coughed lightly.

Seeing her coughing, Ming Xuan took a step back, regretting that she didn't wear a mask, thinking that if the cold didn't recover and she caught herself, it would be too bad luck.

Tong Jiashi fell ill for several times in one winter, but she just loved the graceful demeanor and didn't like sports. Mingxuan couldn't understand this idea of ​​loving beauty to the extreme.

Mingxuan asked her to sit down, and after she was served last year's tribute tea, she sat on the chair farthest from her, and said softly, "Sister, don't blame me, the main reason is that His Royal Highness often comes to talk to me, it's not good... ..."

Speaking of the prince, Ming Xuan felt a little distressed. For the New Year's Eve, he only had a day off before continuing to study.Poor little guy, almost all year round.But she enjoyed it, Ming Xuan said that she didn't quite understand the mentality of being a natural student.

But the little guy likes to be close to her, Ming Xuan doesn't want to do it for herself, and doesn't want him to get sick.

The tradition of starving for a few days before getting sick in the palace is not pleasant.

Tong Jia's cultivation has not yet come home, and it took a while for his ugly face to calm down, and he smiled to Mingxuan, "The crown prince is the prince of the country, sister, you are familiar with the crown prince, you must be careful in everything, after all, cousin values ​​the crown prince the most gone."

"Thank you, sister, for your understanding. By the way, it's Chinese New Year, why is sister here?" Ming Xuan nodded, not feeling anything about the cousin she was talking about, and asked with a smile.

Tong Jiashi took a sip of tea and put it down.It is a good Lu'an melon slice, but the brewing is a bit rough, and it is a good tea for nothing.

But today is not the time to worry about these things, Tong Jiashi looked at Mingxuan, and said: "There are two main things, one is sister Niu Hulu from Jingren Palace, and sister Ma Jia from Zhongcui Palace is next." Monthly birth. Another thing is that several concubines will be admitted into the 26th palace of the first month. The two things came together. The emperor's cousin means that you and I will each receive an errand to deal with. Sister, you want to take care of it which one?"

I don't want to care about one thing!

Ming Xuan frowned, and declined with some anguish: "Sister, those who are capable will do more work. I have never handled anything in the past. These two things are big things, so I can't be careless."

Tong Jiashi covered her nose and said with a snicker: "My cousin said how lazy you are, I still don't believe it, but looking at it now, my cousin actually understands you."

cousin?emperor?

Kangxi understands himself?What kind of terrible word for tiger and wolf is this?

Ming Xuan secretly rolled her eyes by rubbing her forehead.Some can't stand Tong Jia's secret poking show of affection.

"This is the first time I've come to Yongshou Palace. Will my sister show me around?" Mingxuan didn't know what to say to Tong Jiashi, so she just shut up. I can speak first.

The new concubine is going to enter the palace. I heard that Dai Jia's family is delicate, Guo Luoluo's family is charming, and there is also a bright and beautiful Ulanara family.

Tong Jiashi thought that she was only one year younger than the emperor and had many holy favors, but she was not pregnant for a long time, so she couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Although he doesn't like other women in the palace, but thinking of the Kunning Palace that has been stopped for repairs, and thinking of the beautiful women who keep entering the palace, Tong Jia finally feels threatened and feels that he should make some changes.

So she found Ming Xuan, who was not favored, and wanted to form an alliance with her.It was even decided that if she could use it for herself, it was not impossible to introduce her to the emperor.

Although she is afraid of Mingxuan's appearance, Tong Jiashi has never heard of Mingxuan's literary talents, and now seeing her so dull and uninteresting, she is confident that they are as different as pearls and fish eyes, and in comparison, they can show themselves more precious.

Ming Xuan always felt that Tong Jia's smile was weird, sympathetic and proud, but Ming Xuan couldn't stop her from visiting Yongshou Palace, so she could only take her around.

"Sister's tidying up in the palace is a bit wild." Tong Jiashi said with a smile as he looked at the snowmen of different sizes piled up in the yard, as well as all kinds of oddly shaped ornaments.

Mingxuan put on a mask when she went out, and replied after hearing the words: "My sister is too famous."

"It's just sister, you gave Zhuxiong a good side hall to live in, how will you arrange other concubines in the future?" Tong Jia looked at the bamboo bear's den, which stood almost half of the west side hall, in disbelief.

this problem?

Ming Xuan had never considered the issue of entering the palace, but as there were more and more women in the palace, this seemed inevitable.

Rubbing her hands, Ming Xuan couldn't imagine herself living in the same palace with other women at all, so she wanted to turn around and beg the Empress Dowager, let her tell the emperor not to give away someone in her palace.

Then he said to Tong Jiashi: "Thank you sister for reminding me, my sister has written it down."

Tong Jia opened her mouth, but couldn't find a topic to talk about. She turned her eyes and saw the hairpin on Mingxuan's head. She felt a little familiar, so she complimented her a few more words before leaving in a little embarrassment.

Mingxuan touched her hairpin, and after hearing what Tong Jia said was a rare treasure, she returned to the room and muttered to herself with some doubts: "Will the emperor be so generous to me? Impossible! He is so pick?"

"Master, what are you talking about?" Chuni asked curiously.

Ming Xuan shook her head, untied a hairpin, and picked up the hairpin from the order given by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In contrast, the one given by Kangxi was indeed much more exquisite.

Blinking his eyes, he thought to himself that it really is the emperor, the root hair is much thicker than others!

The two things Tong Jia said represented palace power, Mingxuan didn't fight for it, Kangxi couldn't help shaking his head, and scolded with a smile: "Are you always going to hide yourself?"

Liang Jiugong didn't understand, since the emperor knew that concubine Tong Jia would not give up the imperial power, why did he mention concubine Hesheli in front of her?

Kangxi sighed, while it was a headache for him that the Hesheli girl was not greedy for power, he was also a little relieved.

Since Niu Hulu was pregnant with this child, he had already decided not to be a queen for the time being. Even now that it was confirmed that she was pregnant with a princess, Kangxi did not change his mind.

In fact, from the moment Niu Hulu insisted on using drugs to conceive this child, Kangxi began to be disappointed in her.But at the same time, she also recognized her ability.

Regarding the matter of the harem, in Kangxi's view, the tripartite confrontation is the most secure for the time being.It is also most beneficial to Baocheng.

In the future, Baocheng will be bigger, if there is a suitable candidate.

After the decision was made, Kangxi planned to take another look at the appearance and talent of the women who entered the palace this time, and if there was one he liked, he would be rewarded together with the Nala family, Ma Jia family and others.

To Ming Xuan, it doesn't make any difference whether someone enters the palace or not.But it's different for others.

Last year when the three of Mingxuan entered the palace, they were treated like no one else. This time...

Throughout the first month, there was a tense atmosphere in the palace, and various gossips continued to spread.

Ming Xuan watched rolling around, thinking she was rolling on the ground like a ball, listening to Chuni talking about various rumors in the palace, eating the skewers, and kept exclaiming.

This story is so wonderful, she can write tens of thousands of pornographic essays in her head.

But stop!The little prince is still by his side!Can't think too much.

Yinreng was gnawing a skinless roasted chicken leg beside Mingxuan, when he heard that a certain concubine was a good cook, he suddenly said: "Ama Khan, don't drink soup, Eunuch Liang said, he lost two circles of weight. "

"Your Highness, you are wrong, this is not the point!" Trying to ignore the problem of losing two laps, Mingxuan watched her looking for the house of internal affairs for a long time before the other party made the grill as required, and said enviously: "They all eat imperial food How come there are people who can open a small stove to cook for themselves?"

Yinfeng was puzzled.

Chun Ni sighed, "Just one way and one soup pot are enough for stewing soup."

"Oh! It's so shabby, no wonder the emperor doesn't eat it." Ming Xuan suddenly realized.

Yinreng put down the chicken legs, picked up the hawthorn water beside him, and said, "It's strange, why don't you let the imperial dining room stew the soup? Eunuch Liang, he vomits every time."

"Heart, heart!" Ming Xuan wiped the grease off her lips, and said with a smile, "The master of the imperial dining room made it, how can it reflect the feelings of ladies?"

It's just that the father-in-laws in front of the imperial court are pitiful, and they suffered for the emperor!

"It's unnecessary!" Yinfeng said that he didn't understand it at all.

If someone doesn't know how to make soup and gives him soup, he...he will let the other party drink it to see if he will be poisoned.

Mingxuan thought to herself that little hairy kids don't know how to have fun, maybe the emperor will never get tired of it!

While the two were talking, Wei Zhu, another eunuch beside Kangxi, came over and told Mingxuan that Niu Hulu's family was going to give birth, so today the crown prince will stay in Yongshou Palace.

"Ama Khan said, this is my younger sister." Yinfeng was silent for a while, leaning on Mingxuan, and said dully.

Before he was born, he took Khan Ama away. He didn't like his sister anymore.

Ming Xuan stretched out her hand to pinch his little nose, and said with a smile, "Can't you sleep with me at night? I'll tell you a story, the story of Nu Wa pinching a little clay figurine."

"It's Nuwa, who made people." Yinfeng looked up at his aunt's bright smiling face, and said, "It's not a little clay figurine. I only know about it."

"Then will your Highness listen?" Ming Xuan raised her eyebrows and asked.

Yinfeng nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes." Every time my aunt told a story, it was different from others.

That night in Mingxuan's bosom, Ye Yinfeng heard Nuwa's delicate kneading at the beginning, and then she made clay figurines... In her dreams, she was always making clay figurines.

After four hours in the night, Niu Hulu's family finally gave birth to a little princess who is said to be small and delicate at night on the 21st.

The imperial physicians of the imperial hospital went to five or six times, and after consultations, they came to the conclusion that although the little princess is weak, she is well recuperated and can get better.

"No matter how good-looking it is, it can't be guaranteed to be good-looking." When Kangxi was reviewing papers in the Qianqing Palace, he heard that she was a beautiful little princess, and that if she took good care of her, she would survive, and her face was filled with joy. After calling for a reward, Just shook his head.

Liang Jiugong lowered his head, thinking of the prince's face, he couldn't help nodding from the side.

Kangxi took a discarded booklet and threw it directly on his face, scolding him with a smile: "Why are you nodding? Do you think my princess is not good-looking?"

Counting the adopted daughter, this is the fourth living daughter. Kangxi is not in a bad mood and is not really angry about it.

"I don't dare, it's just...just, it's just the crown prince's celestial appearance. I have never seen such a handsome man in this life." Liang Jiugong knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

Kangxi raised his eyebrows, punished him by kneeling for a quarter of an hour, and then stopped pursuing it. In fact, he also thought so in his heart.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, at the little princess's three washing banquets, Yinreng saw his new younger sister, and the expression on his face was not very good.

Kangxi didn't know, so when there were only father and son, he asked.

Yinfeng couldn't help worrying and said: "Sister, it's Nuwa, the empress dumped it, isn't it a fool?"

His face was wrinkled and blue, not good-looking at all.

……

So how does Kangxi answer?

Looking back, he didn't see many children, and the one who impressed him the most was Yinfeng. Although he was a little flushed after birth, he became white, tender and cute within two days.

In contrast, this newborn daughter is really like a muddy idea that Nuwa threw at random when she created a human being.

"You can't say that about my sister." Kangxi reached out and tapped Yinrong's forehead lightly, and said in disapproval: "Where is there a brother who thinks that his sister is not good-looking?"

"Baocheng knew he was wrong." After admitting his mistake obediently, Yinreng said happily, "My aunt said that Baocheng looks good."
