Female Official In the East Palace: Chapter 140
This year's primary election is set in the Royal Garden. As a junior, even if the official start time is early, she needs to appear in the Royal Garden in advance.
Generally speaking, the first to enter must be from a very good family background, and the crown princess was also at the forefront when drafting.
"When I saw this scene at this time, I thought about my draft, and my heart was very uneasy." The princess sat on the chair under the dragon chair and sighed, "At that time, I never I thought about marrying His Royal Highness..."
If Nemin was alive, Kangxi would discuss with her, but neither Kangxi nor the Empress Dowager would tell Rong Xin about it when Nemin was not there.
Therefore, even if the nurtured nanny beside the Crown Princess was Dantong who went out of Kunning Palace, many people in the palace said "coincidence", but Kangxi and the Empress Dowager never doubted She did it on purpose.
At this time, the princess said that, Rong Xin thought that everything was God's will, and smiled: "The emperor must have carefully weighed it, and now it's clear that you and the prince are deeply in love, indeed It's an excellent arrangement."
Prince Concubine sat upright at the front of the chair, with a well-mannered manner and a smile on the corners of her eyes and brows, "It is my luck to have a husband like His Royal Highness."
And don't think too much to know, these beautiful girls must be secretly paying attention to the prince's place, and among them, there must be many who are eager to enter the prince's backyard.
After all, the prince is a rare good man...
Prince Concubine brushed off the dust that did not exist on the hem of the court dress, and smiled: "I am very generous, as long as I serve my mistress well, naturally I can live comfortably in the backyard of the East Palace."
Rong Xin looked at her and didn't seem to be lying, and said casually: "Don't be too generous, His Royal Highness is the only one."
Besides, the relationship between the prince and the prince concubine, if the prince concubine really does not care at all, I am afraid that the prince will not feel very comfortable in his heart, and it will not be good if there is any resentment.
However, as soon as Rong Xin's voice fell, the crown princess bent her mouth and winked at her, "Auntie, Song Yi means that when they come in, as long as they serve Song Yi well, they can be compared to others. The backyard is all about living comfortably.”
Rong Xin was startled, then shook his head amusingly, "You..."
Prince Concubine picked up the fan and fanned it slowly, "His Royal Highness has promised me that everything in the backyard will be up to me. If he takes care of it, wouldn't he be distrustful of a woman like me?"
Rong Xin gave a thoughtful look, and nodded earnestly for a long time: "You are right."
"I knew my aunt wouldn't just favor the prince." The princess was very happy, took a cup of tea from the palace maid, and gave it to Rong Xin behind her, and said with her eyes bent, "Aunt, You drink tea."
Rong Xin took a quick sip, took a sip, and asked, "The emperor allowed you to attend, presumably to give you some grace, do you have any ideas?"
"Naturally, the color is good and the eyes are clear." The crown princess shook the fan, stopped suddenly, and whispered to Rong Xin, "Look at the third beautiful girl from the left in the first row... "
Rong Xin's eyes were not as good as hers, she squinted and took a closer look, and saw that the beautiful girl she said was standing in the same place without any turbulence, her whole person had a cold temperament, but Even from such a distance, you can see his face is very good.
"The orchid in the empty valley, the independent posture of the world..."
Rong Xin interrupted her thoughts lightly, "Standing in such a position, don't think about it, it won't fall into your hands."
Prince Concubine choked and said angrily: "What did my aunt say, I'm just admiring the flowers."
Rong Xin glanced at the crown princess lightly, and said, "If you like the new and hate the old, Xue Qing may be crying, and if you don't believe me, take a look."
Some people are naturally favored by time, Xue Qing has grown old and has no wrinkles, Rong Xin is not as generous as her, and because of her temperament, Xue Qing is the most beautiful among them young one.
Prince Concubine is a young woman, but she is very fond of Xueqing. She is quite spoiled and arrogant, and it makes people laugh and cry.
However, the princess was very fond of Xueqing's petty temperament, and immediately exaggeratedly asked: "Aunt Xueqing must be the first in my heart, no one can get past it, auntie, you can ask for more in the future. A few words of kindness for me."
It seems to have foreseen the scene of the Yuqing Palace fighting for beauty...
Rong Xin's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and said calmly, "Naturally."
"Song Yi thanked my aunt."
Rong Xin showed a reserved smile and nodded.
"The Emperor is here!"
"The Queen Mother is here!"
"Concubine Niu Hulu is here!"
"Concubine Hui is here!"
"Concubine Rong is here!"
Prince Concubine got up, everyone saluted the Emperor and Empress Dowager together, and the beautiful girls in the distance also knelt.
After Kangxi and others were seated, the ceremonial officer led the order to prepare, and the empress dowager started gossiping with the crown princess.
"When did the princess come?"
Prince Concubine respectfully said, "Return to Ma'am, grandson-in-law arrived a quarter of an hour ago."
"Where's Hong Zhao? Why didn't you bring it here?"
The Crown Princess replied: "My grandson-in-law was worried that Hongzhao would disturb the draft, so she didn't bring it here to teach Aunt Xueqing to take him to play in Yuqing Palace."
"Alright, Hong Zhao's child is here, I really can't tell."
The Crown Princess smiled, because her son is indeed unstable and there is nothing to worry about.
On the contrary, it was Kangxi who retorted very seriously: "Hong Zhao is young, but he is extremely intelligent, and he is not inferior to the prince at all, even here he will not be ignorant."
Kangxi's words, other people can't object.
She and the Crown Princess didn't dare to bring the eldest grandson, but he overestimated his grandson...
Kangxi seemed to be very convinced of his judgment, so he turned his head and said to Rong Xin: "I haven't seen Hong Zhao today, so it's okay to order someone to carry him over."
Rong Xin looked back blankly and asked Kangxi, "Are you sure?"
However, Rong Xin also knew that Kangxi's words had been spoken, and there was no way to go back, so he flashed his inquiring eyes, and immediately whispered to the little maid of Yuqing Palace: "Teach Xueqing to hold the emperor The eldest grandson is here."
The little palace maid bowed her knees and retire, and took orders to invite the eldest grandson of the emperor.
Prince Concubine never said a word, and even looked at Rong Xin with a hint of waiting.
Rong Xin silently reminded her to pay attention to restraint, and then stood behind the Crown Princess, watching her nose and heart.
Prince Princess had to withdraw her eyes, looked gracefully at the beautiful girls who came by, and focused on the beautiful girl she loved.
Rong Xin even ignored the other beautiful girls because of the princess's previous attention, and looked at the beautiful girl from beginning to end like a princess.
And that beautiful girl is indeed extremely outstanding. Among the several beautiful girls, she taught people to cast their gazes unconsciously and couldn't look away.
The ritual officials signed up in turn, and Rong Xin just learned that this beautiful girl is the daughter of Dutong and Yongqin Gong Pengchun, Dong E's.
The Dong E clan is one of the most common surnames in Manchuria, and this beautiful girl is a famous family in the Dong E clan, the most eminent, its ancestor He Heli is one of the five founding ministers, his wife She is the eldest daughter of Taizu Nurhaci.
He Shuotu, the great-grandfather of Dong'e's beautiful daughter, inherited the title of He Heli and married Nurhaci's eldest son, the daughter of Daishan, Prince Heshuolilie.
To his father Pengchun, his first wife is the seventh son of Prince Heshuolilie, the fourth daughter of Man Dahai.
The finger marriages of the Dong E family, from the princess to the princess to the granddaughter, show that the Dong E family has an extraordinary status.
Prince Concubine had guessed this before, so when she learned of her family background, she was not very disappointed, but when she looked back, she was a little less interested.
But Concubine Hui Na La Clan and Concubine Rong Concubine Ma Jia Clan looked very carefully, especially Concubine Rong, looking at the beautiful girls in front of her eyes seemed to be shining, she did not hide it at all, after all Who doesn't want a daughter-in-law's family to be strong? Those who are humble and say it doesn't matter are lying.
However, Kangxi and the empress dowager did not show any favor for a certain beautiful girl, and it was no use for Concubine Ren Rong to be anxious.
A few more…
When she said these words, not only Kangxi, but also the Empress Dowager, Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong looked sideways, obviously surprised.
Kangxi's speechlessness was interrupted by the arrival of the Pope's eldest grandson, temporarily ignoring the scorching gaze of the Crown Princess, and immediately extended his hand to the emperor's eldest grandson after the eldest grandson saluted.
The eldest grandson of the emperor was also very close to Kangxi. After sitting in Huangmafa's arms, he felt that the posture of Huangmafa's hug was uncomfortable. Cheng sat with his back against Huang Marfa's chest.
The draft is suspended, the show girls dare not look up, but everyone else's eyes are on Kangxi and the eldest grandson of the emperor.
When the prince was young, Kangxi gave him different favors from other princes, but the prince was not as fearless of the power of heaven as the eldest grandson.
Kangxi's line of sight is probably better than elsewhere, and there are novel people to attract attention. Apart from the first salute, the eldest grandson did not give him any eyes at all.
Prince Concubine couldn't help but whispered to Rong Xin: "This little white-eyed wolf."
Rong Xin glanced at no one paying attention, then bowed slightly in her ear and said, "Your Highness Pope Mo heard that, now in the emperor's heart, the eldest grandson of the emperor is the only one who can say a word or two. I'm afraid it will be eaten and hung."
"Don't worry, Aunt." The crown princess gave her son a meaningful look, "In the future, Hong Zhao makes mistakes, and we mother and son will treat each other frankly in the room alone."
Kangxi ordered someone to bring a bowl of puree to the eldest grandson, and then called the draft to continue.
you."
From the first sentence "Empress Renxiao passed away early", the expressions of the people present began to change. When Kangxi said that the princess would personally choose the prince, several queens looked at the prince. All are somewhat unclear.
Prince Concubine was also very surprised, but in front of everyone at this time, it was impossible for her to refute Huang Ama's face, so she obeyed.
"After the primary election, my son asked my aunt to present the list to Huang Ama."
Kangxi's eyes fell on Rong Xin, and he left in an instant, nodding in approval.
Since then, not only the princess has become more and more serious about the show girls, but even Rong Xin has also paid attention to the show girls' family characters.
How serious the Crown Princess is, it would be rude to discuss in public, so the Crown Princess gave a hint to Rong Xin after she valued a certain beautiful girl.
There are not many people who are valued by the princess, and the characteristics are very obvious, so Rong Xin has not left one, and she is ready to return to Yuqing Palace to learn more.
There are five show girls in the front row at a time, and then seven or eight show girls stepped forward together, but even so, there are still many people who are ignored.
Adults have self-control and can sit still, but the eldest grandson can't sit still. These beautiful girls are no different to him, and it doesn't take long for them to start moving in Kangxi's arms.
Kangxi held the identity of the emperor himself, and did not want to be rude in front of everyone, so he only lightly pressed the abdomen of the emperor's eldest grandson with his hands, so that he could not move too much.
The eldest grandson's small body can't be moved, but his limbs are still dishonest.
Children of this age are more powerful than ordinary people think and uncontrollable, so it didn't take long for Kangxi to put another hand on the emperor's eldest grandson.
Don't look at the eldest grandson of the emperor who can only call people, but he is really very smart, he can look at people's eyes very well, but he is noisy within a certain range, teaching people to be angry and not let out, but also love angry again.
But children are children after all...
When Rong Xin was distracted, he saw the eldest grandson squirming uncomfortably, and turned to look at the grandmother.
His grandmother did not dare to look directly at Longyan in front of Kangxi, so only Rong Xin found something wrong. Agitated, and then relaxed and leaned back against Huangmafa's arms.
Kangxi was motionless…
Rong Xin: "…"
What do you say?
There is an old saying that should be called, "God's sins can still be violated; self-inflicted sins can't be...?"
It is really suitable for Kangxi at this time.
Rong Xin pursed her lips and held back her smile, beckoning to Liang Jiugong slightly.
Liang Jiugong received her signal, and after bowing to Kangxi to ask for instructions, she and Rong Xin retreated together to no one, and asked, "What is the matter with me?"
"Eunuch Liang, the eldest grandson of the emperor should be..." Rong Xin's expression hinted, and said, "The emperor and the eldest grandson of the emperor both need to change clothes."
Liang Jiugong froze and said shiveringly, "Could it be that Rong, Rong female officer is teasing our family?"
"Eunuch Liang is just joking, when did I tell you a joke?"
Disgrace in public!
Liang Jiugong's face was pale, but he was the **** who had been in front of Kangxi for many years, and he quickly calmly said: "I'll deal with it here."
Rong Xin said: "I'm going to ask the princess to speak. The draft is time-consuming. The queen mother is old and tired from sitting for a long time. Please return to the palace to rest."
Liang Jiugong understood, and after ordering someone to prepare a clean dragon robe for the emperor, he returned to the emperor.
Rong Xin has reminded the princess at this time.
She did not directly say that the eldest grandson urinated on Kangxi, but the crown princess still said with great confidence: "Huang Ma, Huang Ma has been sitting for an hour, and there are many more shows after that. Girl, I'm afraid I can't take it anymore, why don't I ask the emperor to go back to the palace first?"
Kangxi had discovered the actions of Rong Xin and Liang Jiugong, and immediately responded, and then said to the empress dowager: "Huang E-niang, I will take you back to the palace first."
The Empress Dowager declined a few words. Seeing Kangxi's insistence, she was very moved: "The emperor has a heart."
Kangxi naturally put the eldest grandson into Liang Jiugong's arms, and Liang Jiugong personally held the eldest grandson and handed it over to Rong Xin.
Rong Xin felt wet when touched, but fortunately, the clothes of Kangxi and the eldest grandson were not the kind of material that would show color when wet.
Usually drafts don't take a break so quickly, but after Liang Jiugong handed over the eldest grandson to Rong Xin, he said to the officials who organized the draft: "The emperor approves the show girls who have not yet been selected. Let's take a break."
Although the officials feel that it is not in line with the rules, the rules of the draft are now set by Queen Renxiao when she was alive, so there is no delay, and you should arrange it.
Concubine Niu Hulu and Concubine Hui saw the emperor leaving, so they also got up and left the imperial garden temporarily. .
Yuqing Palace is a little far away, the princess didn't go back, but ordered someone to bring the eldest grandson back to Yuqing Palace.
The eldest grandson also seemed to know that he was in trouble, and he was unusually well-behaved throughout the whole process, not even struggling so hard not to return to the palace as before.
Prince Princess looked at such a well-behaved son very strangely, "Did you do something bad?"
The eldest grandson of the emperor nestled in Xue Qing's arms obediently, his eyes widened, and he let out an innocent "ahhhh".
Rong Xin saw Concubine Rong approaching, and said to Xue Qing: "The eldest grandson of the emperor only ate half a bowl of puree, so take the eldest grandson back to eat some food."
Xue Qing stopped the conversation immediately, said goodbye to the crown princess, and left first with the palace attendant serving the eldest grandson of the emperor.
Concubine Rong walked up to Rong Xin and the Crown Princess, and asked sternly, "Does the Crown Princess take good care of people? Fortunately, Yinzhi's marriage can't be decided by my mother, otherwise I will decide It's to pick and choose."
Rong Xin saw that the Crown Princess had no intention of chatting with Concubine Rong, so he asked Concubine Rong to take a seat, and said: "The emperor loves the third brother and the fourth brother, and will definitely be the two brothers. Pick two excellent Fu Jin."
A few days ago, Kangxi explained the marriage of the third elder brother Yinzhi and the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, and also said that he would add more people to the backyard of the prince and the eldest elder brother, so I don’t know the button today. Concubine Hulu appeared, as did Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong.
Although the two do not have the same autonomy as the Crown Princess, their presence, to a certain extent, was Kangxi's expression of the importance of the elder brother and the third elder brother, and then benefited the biological mother.
In fact, everyone in the palace knew that Kangxi had not favored Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong for several years, and the few extra hours she stayed were just to have a meal with the children they raised together.
After all, the flowers in the palace are blooming one by one, and Kangxi still can’t pick them, so how can they go back and eat the dried flowers that were abandoned before?
A day of respect.
Concubine Rong was not invited by Rong Xin to sit down, but instead supported her waist and said, "I haven't sat for such a long time in many years, not to mention the empress dowager, I can't stand it, you accompany me Shall I go for a walk?"
Rong Xin looked at the Crown Princess, and seeing her consent, he followed behind Concubine Rong to hang out in the imperial garden.
The two walked for a while, and Rong Xin realized that their direction seemed to be heading for the palace where the beautiful girls were resting, and suddenly said silently: "Do you mean that the drunkard does not want to drink?"
Nature? You just went with me to observe secretly one or two, if I find that the future blessing of the emperor for Yinzhi's future marriage is not good, I will not agree to this concubine."
Although Rong Xin was somewhat moved by Concubine Rong's maternal love, she doubted: "Are you sure you want to give up the concubine position?"
"..." Concubine Rong looked at Rong Xin accusingly, "Why can't people be confused?"
Rong Xin was speechless, and Concubine Rong actually taught her to be confused. This person has lived for a long time and can really see everything.
Concubine Rong didn't care what she said, and went straight to the resting place of the show girls. behind a wall.
"In front of this back wall are five connected rooms, and all the beautiful girls from the Eight Banners with better family backgrounds rest here."
The thickness of a wall could not isolate the sound at all, so Concubine Rong's voice was extremely low.
Rong Xin followed behind her, seeing that Concubine Rong actually made an eavesdropping gesture, she helplessly replied in a low voice: "You are one of the four concubines, you are not afraid of teaching people to see Lost face?"
"This is a major event in my son's life, maybe only once in his life, how can face be more important than Yinzhi?"
Rong Xin heard this very familiar, looked around the environment where they were, and finally settled on the open door in front, and asked: "I remember this The door doesn't usually open, does it?"
Rong Xin shook her head, and did not reveal her righteousness, but said: "Since you are so well prepared, why don't you bring a few palace attendants? I don't know which one The useful information that can be heard from behind the house should be cast a wide net."
When Concubine Rong heard this, she said with conviction: "You are right, how could I have never thought of this, where those beautiful girls dare to walk around in the palace, they must all stay in their respective places. in the house."
Rong Xin nodded in agreement, and when he looked up, he saw Concubine Rong staring at her closely, and glanced left and right at the people in Concubine Rong's palace, Concubine Jia Rong himself had exactly four.
"Could you teach me to help you?"
Concubine Rong nodded abruptly and left this place to Rong Xin, while she walked to the room closer to the back door.
What can Rong Xin do? He could only stand quietly under the wall and listen carefully to the voices behind him.
You can vaguely hear that the show girls are greeting each other, and from the tone and wording of everyone's greetings, you can roughly hear the show girls' character.
.
Rong Xin looked at Concubine Rong, saw that she was frowning, and didn't know what she heard, so she walked over and whispered: "There will be nothing you think will happen in that room."
Concubine Rong said, "There is no movement in this house from beginning to end."
When it was almost time for the re-primary election, the two walked out of the back door and looked back at the three palace attendants, and they found nothing.
At this time, Concubine Rong took out a folded piece of paper from her sleeve, opened it in front of Rong Xin, pointed to the room she heard just now, and said, "Zhenghongqi Dong'e ·Pengchun's daughter Dong E, Zhenghuangqi Wulanala · Feiyangu's daughter Wulanala, Jiaoercha with blue flag, Guerjia with yellow flag..."
Rong Xin nodded, they were all famous.
Then I listened to Concubine Rong's next sentence: "If you are so taciturn, you must not be able to get along with Yinzhi and his wife."
Rong Xin asked sharply, "So you have to give up the concubine position?"
Concubine Rong choked and couldn't say a word.
