Chapter 3296 3298【Entering the harem】
Subsequently, all the concubines moved into the six east and west palaces.
Among them, the queen moved to Changchun Palace; Su Luyun and Chen Wanyin lived in Zhongcui Palace; Jin Yuyan and Gao Xiyue lived in Xiang Palace; Fucha Zhuying lived in Xianfu Palace; Hailan lived in Yongshou Palace.
In addition, the cabinet also drafted titles for the concubines. Among them, Gao Xiyue is the concubine Hui, Zhu Ying is the concubine Zhe, Hailan is the concubine Yu, Chen Wanyin is the concubine Wan, Su Lujun is the pure noble, and Jin Yuyan is the noble concubine Jia.
After conferring rewards on the Sixth Palace, Neqin and other ministers asked Xiang Nan to move the Queen Mother to Cining Palace as soon as possible.
After all, Zhen Huan is the Queen Mother, but she lives in the Shoukang Palace where the concubines live. It is not suitable for her to have an unfair reputation, and it is not the way of filial piety.
Xiang Nan knew that the Queen Mother was putting pressure on herself through the ministers of the previous dynasty.
"I also ordered Qin Li to repair it carefully in order to make the Queen Mother live in peace of mind." Xiang Nan looked at Neqin and said, "Could it be that my filial piety is still wrong?"
Neqin was speechless when Xiang Nan asked him this question.
Half a month later, Zhen Huan felt a dull pain in her head. After diagnosis and treatment by the imperial physician, the cause was concluded to be "wind salivation". This is the disease that Cao Cao suffered from in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
This disease is extremely difficult to treat. The best treatment method is, as Hua Tuo said, to separate the skull with a sharp ax and take out the saliva.
However, the "Qing Nang Shu" that recorded this treatment method has long been lost. Today's imperial doctors do not know how to treat it at all and can only delay the symptoms as much as possible.
After Zhen Huan got wind saliva, she suffered from headaches every day, and the pain was even worse when she encountered wind. Therefore, she originally insisted on moving to Cining Palace. Now that we can't see the wind, we can't move easily, so we won't mention it anymore.
…
After Zhen Huan fell ill, Xiang Nan was extremely anxious on the surface. Not only did he order the Tai Hospital to treat her with all his strength, but he also went to the Anhua Hall to chant sutras and pray for blessings. He even pricked his finger and wrote sutras with blood to pray for the queen mother's speedy recovery. .
With him as an example, other concubines in the harem, such as Langya, Hailan, Zhuying, Wanyin, Luyun, etc., also knelt down in Anhua Hall, prayed devoutly for the Queen Mother, and chanted sutras and prayed for blessings.
But even though everyone is so sincere, Zhen Huan's illness is getting worse and worse. Finally, half a month later, Zhen Huan couldn't stand it any longer and returned to the west.
After she left, her personal servant Fujia also committed suicide.
Xiang Nan then held a grand funeral for Zhen Huan and buried her together with the late emperor Yongzheng.
After Zhen Huan's death, Xiang Nan also used Qingying's need to fulfill her filial piety in front of the soul, so she was released from Chonghua Palace to attend Zhen Huan's funeral.
Twenty-seven days later, the funeral ceremony was completed.
Xiang Nan issued an edict to confer Qingying as Concubine Xian and live in Yikun Palace.
"Your Majesty, this is the first time that Qingying sister is conferred as a noble concubine. Isn't it a bit ostentatious?" Lang Hua couldn't help but feel a little bit disgusted when she saw that Qingying was conferred as a noble concubine and stayed in Yikun Palace.
"Qingying is my concubine, and she has given birth to a son and a daughter for me. She is of noble birth, so the title of concubine is not considered excessive." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Queen, I understand your thoughts. Don't worry, I have always been equal to you, to her, and even to Xiyue, Zhuying, Hailan, etc. I have never favored anyone.
As long as you are upright, tolerant, and help me take care of the harem, I promise you that no one can take away your position as queen. "
"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty." Upon hearing this, Lang Hua immediately bowed down and said.
“Okay, get up, we are an old married couple, so don’t keep bowing.” Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, “Let’s just sit and talk.”
…
After the harem was granted the title Concubine Qingyingxian, Xiang Nan also changed her name.
"What name does the emperor want to change to this concubine?" Qingying asked curiously after hearing this. "What do you think of the word 'Ruyi'?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“Is it ‘ruyi’ that means ‘everything goes as you wish’?” Qingying asked quickly after hearing this.
"No, I chose 'Yi' from 'Yi De', which means 'beautiful and quiet'." Xiang Nan explained, "The "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" said, 'Lin considers Yide and is not allowed to be indecent.' This is the reason for the harem. Nothing is better than silence. Only silence is the best."
“Then why is it not ‘Yi’ but ‘Ruyi’?” Qingying asked again with a smile.
“Heaven and earth are not perfect, and there is no perfect thing in the world. Being able to achieve ‘Ruyi’ is already pretty good.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“I would like to thank the emperor for giving me my name.” Qingying bowed down.
"Your Majesty, when the word 'Yi' is broken down, it means '一心'." Ruyi said again.
"Yes, I watched "The Horse on the Wall" with you that day, and we became deeply in love. It was just a moment of affection." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“I think it’s ‘a change of heart once in a lifetime.’” Ruyi said with a smile.
“What a wonderful solution.” Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan clapped his hands and said with a smile.
Since then, the whole palace has been renamed "Ruyi".
Xiang Nan changed the name for Qingying here, and raised the flag for Gao Xiyue over there.
The Gao clan used to be coated with a yellow flag, but now after the flag was raised, it was changed to Gaojia clan with a yellow flag. The identity and status are different.
This divine favor naturally made Gao Xiyue very happy.
In addition, Li Rongbao, the father of Fucha Langhua, was granted the title of first-class public official, and Langhua's brother Fu Qing was granted the title of second-rank official in Jinmen Town, Zhili. Fu Qing was only thirty-two years old at that time and was already in the second rank of officialdom. Lang Hua was naturally grateful for such honor and favor.
Other concubines also received their own rewards, such as Hailan's Ama Erjitu official being reinstated; Chen Wanyin's father was promoted to a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, and Zhuying's Ama was promoted to a doctor in the Ministry of Internal Affairs...
All the concubines have their own benefits, and even the Yu family where Jin Yuyan belongs has been praised by the emperor.
Everyone has benefited, and naturally no one will be jealous of the change of name for Ruyi.
…
After ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, Fucha Langya will follow the ancestral system and send his brothers to the Xiefang Hall to be taken care of by the nuns.
First of all, after entering A Ge Institute, you can study better. The Qing Dynasty attached great importance to the prince's education. The prince would get up at five o'clock in the morning to study until three o'clock in the afternoon. After school ends at three o'clock, I have to learn riding and shooting again.
Out of the 365 days in a year, you can only rest on New Year's Day, Duanyang, Mid-Autumn Festival, Wanshou, and your own birthday. It can be said that in terms of study level, it is even harder than students in some key high schools today.
Secondly, when the Qing Dynasty governed the world, it always drew on the experiences and lessons of the previous dynasties.
There are examples of exclusive power exercised by relatives in all dynasties. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty learned its lesson and separated the elder brother and his biological mother since they were children, so that their relationship would be relatively weak. This would prevent the emperor from promoting and re-employing his relatives after he ascended the throne, and naturally avoid the exclusive power of his relatives.
However, Xiang Nan knows that it is detrimental to children's growth if they leave their parents too early. Moreover, going to school at five o'clock in the morning is also a huge burden for underage children.
Therefore, Xiang Nan stopped Fucha Langya's approach, "I believe that children should not be separated from their biological mothers prematurely. This is contrary to filial piety.
Moreover, studying too early and too arduously is detrimental to a child’s growth. I asked the imperial doctor that children should get enough sleep to grow well.
In my opinion, from now on, I will go to school at 7 o'clock, and every 50 minutes of class, I will have a ten-minute break. Combining work with rest and relaxing at leisure is the way of civility and martial arts. "
