Qing Dynasty: I Rely on Games To Fight For Favor

On August 18th, when I got up in the morning, the sky was still a bit gloomy. When it was about time, a golden light suddenly came down, and the clouds and fog were lifted. The sky was clear and the sky was clear.

At this time, there were still three quarters of an hour before the auspicious hour, but Xia Mian had already bathed and changed clothes, waiting in front of Yingyue Palace.

The front of Yingyue Palace has all been set up, there are incense burners, incense cases, court instrumentalists, officiating female officials, etc., plus the people watching the ceremony in Yingyue Palace, standing full.

The first step of the enclosing ceremony is to award the treasure book.

This treasure book sounds like one thing, but it is actually two, divided into treasure books.

A treasure is a treasure seal that symbolizes the status of a concubine. It corresponds to the jade seal of the emperor. The queen seal is a gold seal engraved with "The Queen's Treasure". It is about four centimeters high and fourteen centimeters wide. It is a bit flat. The big gold seal is cast with third-class gold, and this seal is made of five hundred taels of gold, which is fifty catties of gold.

Imperial concubine, imperial concubine, concubine, and concubine, according to the grade, Baoyin specifications are sequentially reduced.

At Xia Mian, there is only a half-big seal with palm-sized copper more than gold left.

Otherwise, people have to make progress!

It’s a good book. It’s the emperor’s book for the concubine, except for the different words written on it, there is not that big gap.

At three quarters, when the auspicious hour arrived, the female officer at Xia Mian began to read various prose and follow the procedures.

At the same time, Kangxi also began to reward the treasure book under the auspices of officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Afterwards, officials of the Ministry of Rites held the festival and carried the Dragon Pavilion to Yingyue Palace.

The Longting Pavilion is a large color pavilion, and there are two things in it, the treasure and the book.

At this time, with the sound of drum music in Yingyue Palace, Xia Mian knelt and knocked nine times, accepting the book.

Then, at the climax of the ceremony, Xia Mian took the treasure book and went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to give thanks. At this time, the concubines in the harem, the nobles and above, were all there, and they all came to observe the ceremony.

And this step varies greatly according to the rank of the award recipient.

For example, the Empress, the Manchu dynasty civil and martial arts should also be present at this time, and the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager should also participate in this grand ceremony. It was really a grand ceremony at that time, with thousands of people present.

If it is an imperial concubine, then it will be worse. The Manchu dynasty is gone, and there are only some imperial relatives and nobles.

Concubine, it's even worse.

Anyway, when Xia Mian is here, only the concubines in the harem are left, the kind that the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager don’t use.

But today, the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager made an exception. They all sat on it, waiting for Xia Mian to give thanks.

In the eyes of others, it is a great honor. For example, Fei Hui and others, whose angry noses are all crooked, but Xia Mian, there is no fluctuation in her heart.

The empress dowager and the empress dowager were also there. In other words, in addition to Kangxi who had to read a large article, Xia Mian knocked him nine heads, but also listened to the female officials of the empress dowager reciting a large text, knocking nine heads, and then Queen Mother...

With so many heads, Xia Mian wondered if her knees and neck would work, especially, she was still wearing such a heavy crown and such a sturdy Ji suit.

And this is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that she has to give back to Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager a small essay. It is just a thank you. It must be no less than five hundred words. Bingmao, want the sloppy yo of classical Chinese!

Fortunately, considering all the possibilities, she also prepared words for the empress dowager and the empress dowager, otherwise she would definitely catch her blind at the moment.

Even with this, she almost forgot the words several times. The feeling of embarrassment is more serious than the teacher’s examination and recitation in class. You can’t recite it. After all, in class, even if you can’t recite it, the teacher will say you at most. It's fine if you are fined for copying the text, but here, if you don't do it well, it will be mischievous, and you will be punished!

With a high concentration of energy, Xia Mian finally finished reading the three short essays steadily, and only felt as if she had regained her life once again.

Then it was easy, Xia Mian stood up, the palace man fell to her knees, congratulated Xia Mian on her successful promotion to a concubine.

Seeing the crowd of people kneeling down below, and hearing their high-than-high congratulations, Xia Mian was still very happy.

Then, it came to her favorite link, the reward.

Kangxi reward, a long list of rewards.

I thought that Xia Mian gave things to the house last time, and even the promotion items were taken out. This time, the Kangxi rewards were extraordinarily rich, with only one thousand taels of light silver, one hundred taels of gold, and all kinds of silk, satin, jade, and jewellery. Wait.

Listening to Xia Mian's face flushed, her liver poked and thumped, so many good things, promotion, it is really a very profitable thing, this is just promotion of concubine, what if it is to be promoted?

Can't think of, can't think of. However, she is willing to try hard.

After Kangxi's reward, the Empress Dowager rewarded her, and her reward was much richer than usual. The concubine Hui and others who listened to it were very jealous.

I thought this would be high enough to look at Xia Mian, but when the female officer finished reading, Xiao Zhuang glanced at La Aunt Su Ma. La Aunt Su Ma held the box in front of him and handed it to Xia Mian.

"Reward you, open it and take a look." Xiaozhuang said.

Xia Mian took the brocade box. The brocade box was five inches square and not too heavy. She already felt the extraordinary things in the box without opening it, otherwise it would not be worthy of Xiaozhuang to take it out to her alone.

Open, the red light shines, the room shines.

This turned out to be a pair of ruby ​​begonia flower branches, with gold as the base, and red coral on the top to make a begonia flower. The heart of the begonia is shining with a ruby ​​that is a circle larger than the belly of the thumb. There are strings of beads under the step, and at the end of each string, there is another drop-shaped ruby ​​the size of a broad bean embossed there. With a slight movement, the light flashes and catches the eyes.

Beauty is so beautiful, especially the two big rubies at the center of the flower. If you look closely, it seems that there are fireworks blooming inside. Just this big ruby, I don’t know how valuable it is. What's more, there are two rubies of the same size and similar appearance to make jewelry, and there are so many smaller rubies underneath.

Sure enough, it was the Empress Dowager, who shocked people's hearts when she shot.

Xia Mian's eyes flickered with stars, and if she hadn't tried her best to control herself, she would have lost her mind now.

She wasn't gaffe, there was gaffe next to her.

When Hui Fei and the others saw the pair of rubies swaying, they went crazy with jealousy, and could no longer hold the smirk on their faces. They all looked at Xia Mian angrily, making Kangxi unhappy.

Kangxi groaned displeasedly, Hui Fei and other talents were startled, and hurriedly squeezed out a smile, but the smile looked awkward.

The imperial concubine looked at him and was taken aback. No wonder Concubine Hui and the others were so gaffe. She Tong Jia, who was known as Tong Banguo, could not bring out a few good things like this pair of steps. This should be too emperor. The queen mother pressed the things at the bottom of the box, but I don't know why she would give it out to Xia Mian.

Just because she gave the empress dowager chicken soup for a few days?

She was puzzled.

Like her, there was also the imperial concubine next to her. The imperial concubine looked left and right, but she didn't see where Xia Mian was worthy of the ruby ​​sway.

"Do you like it?" Xiaozhuang asked.

Xia Mian nodded like pecking rice, like it, I really like it, "Thank you for your reward, the empress dowager, I don't dare to be ashamed!"

Xiaozhuang smiled, Xia Mian deserved it.

At this time, it was the Queen Mother’s turn to reward. As usual, it was a gift list. In addition to this, she also had an extra box of rewards.

A red lacquer box the size of a plate is divided into four compartments, filled with golden dates, golden peanuts, golden longans, and golden melon seeds. This meaning cannot be more obvious. I hope that Xia Mian will be the emperor's continuous heir sooner.

Xia Mian felt a little weak in her heart after seeing it. Let's get pregnant. If she wants to, she should be able to get pregnant after eating the pregnant fruit. It's just that she is not ready to be pregnant. She is now in the upswing of her career. When she becomes pregnant, how much time will be lost.

Besides, she doesn't usually have contraception, isn't she also pregnant?

Explain that the time has not yet arrived.

Xia Mian thought so in her heart. She still liked the empress dowager's box. Although the pair of rubies are extremely valuable, they can only be stored except for her wearing them. But this box of things is different. They are all made of gold. Take it out, and you can save the emergency!

This box is heavy, but a lot of gold.

"Thank you, the empress dowager for the reward." Xia Mian happily took it, and asked Jiang Xiang to hold it for her first.

At this point, the banning ceremony has come to an end, and all that is left is to meet the concubines of the palace and let everyone know her new identity again.

This is also a waste of time. Qiangyan laughed for more than half an hour, and was finally able to go back. Xia Mian hurriedly let Xiangxiang support her, sat on her baby boy, and went straight to her own Dongbei Hall.

When entering the house, she took off her shoes first, followed by all kinds of clothes and jewelry, and finally took off her hair and washed her face. She did not want to move even a little while lying on the bed. Today, not only is the body tired, but the heart is even more tired, so even if she drank the spiritual liquid in the middle of her, it didn't seem to work.

Just want to sleep.

Telling Xiangxiang not to call her about anything serious, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

It was already afternoon Shen Shi, and Xia Mian had been busy from Yin Shi in the morning, and it was almost six hours now.

Xia Mian rested, but Xiang Xiang and others did not dare to rest. The emperor, the empress dowager, and the empress dowager rewarded so many things, and the precious ones must be put in the summer dorm, and when she got up, she would put away the usual silks, furs and other things. They have to summarize them according to the list, put them in the warehouse, and use them later.

The East Side Hall looked busy.

At this time, a little **** came anxiously getting angry.

It's Xiao Xizi. Didn't Yin Fong promise Ba Age and wait for Liangchang to take him to see her when he got better last time? At that time, Xiao Xizi wondered if he wanted to tell Xia Mian about this.

As a result, he came back later, just in time for Xia Mian to deliver chicken soup to the Queen Mother, but he didn't see him.

Later, Yinfeng didn't mention it again, Xiao Xizi thought he had forgotten it, so he didn't look for Xia Mian again.

As a result, today Xia Mian closed the concubine, and there was a lot of movement in the palace, and there was a little chaos everywhere. Eight princes didn't know what happened, so he slipped to Yuqing Palace and asked Yinfeng to take him to see Liangchangli.

At this time, ten days have passed since Yinfeng agreed to the eighth prince last time. Yinrong felt that the common illness should be cured, so he took the eighth prince to Yanxi Palace.

When they arrived, Concubine Hui took someone to attend Xia Mian's ordination ceremony. Who would dare to stop Yinrong in Yanxi Palace, Yinrong and Ba Age saw Liang Chang who was confined in the house.

Liangchang was crying with her eighth brother. While crying, she felt that this might be her last chance to leave Yanxi Palace, so she beat Concubine Hui to prevent her from seeing the eighth brother with Yinfeng. said.

The mother and son cried together and begged Yinfeng to help them.

At that time, Xiao Xizi felt like five thunders, and he regretted not stopping Yinrong from coming to Yanxi Palace with great regret. What should I do now?

Regarding the harem, especially Yanxi Palace, Concubine Hui is the master of the first palace. Even if she plays well, it is also a matter in their palace. Why do you have to do with others?

But now, Yinfeng has already come, and it’s about the eighth prince. If his prince just leaves, if something happens to the eighth prince, wouldn’t he end up with the reputation of not cherishing his brothers?

You know, our emperor values ​​father and son and brothers' affection most.

Not a person inside and out, Xiao Xizi regretted his death.

Yinfeng didn't expect it to be like this, frowning and wondering how to deal with this matter.

It's just such a coincidence that Concubine Hui is back.

Behind the concubine Hui is Yehnala, the Pearl of Nalan. He and Suo'etu each form a party in the court, and they are fighting each other. They are much better than the harem. When you meet in two, don't you have a pinpoint to the Maimang?

Concubine Hui had long thought about digging a hole for Yinfeng, arguing, she would teach Liangchang in front of Yinfeng, Yinfeng was also annoyed, so she took Liangchangzai to leave with Ba Age. Yanxi Palace.

Concubine Hui pretended to stop, but she didn't stop at all. When Yinrong left, she cried and ran to the palace to complain.

Waiting for Yinfeng to go to Qing Palace, it was something that was unclear, and now it is even more unclear.

Concubine Hui took the opportunity to drop into the well and sent a letter to Mingzhu outside, asking him to mobilize people to take the opportunity to impeach Yinrong.

Suo Etu soon learned about this, and of course he would not sit back and wait for death. He immediately contacted him to write a letter saying that Concubine Hui had lost his virtue and treated the eighth prince harshly. His Royal Highness is a friendly brother!

The two major forces of North Korea and China immediately confronted each other and refused to give in.

Kangxi was busy with Heilongjiang affairs, but also worried about the Empress Dowager. Now such a thing happened again, and he was really annoyed.

But anger turned anger, the matter has to be resolved, but this matter, how to resolve it?

This matter was caused by Liang Changzai and Ba Age, and now that it involves the prince, it is no longer how to deal with Liang Changzai's matter.

Kangxi was also troubled.

Xiao Xizi was even more frightened and frightened. The master has something to do, and what he has suffered will always be a slave. Now the emperor and Master Suo haven't thought of him yet, when they think of it, he is not a dead place.

So he quickly came to Xia Mian for help.
