The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Yinzhen was still very filial to the Queen Mother and answered respectfully: "It has been prepared almost. Fu Cha Changhua has been busy in the Ministry of Rites. I plan to take advantage of this cowpox incident to promote him to the position of Minister of Rites."

The Queen Mother was a little surprised. How could there be such a young Minister of Rites?

However, it was not her place to interfere in the affairs of the court, so she did not say anything in rebuttal, but just nodded.

Yinzhen went on to say: "The Cining Palace has been renovated. My son asked them to pick an auspicious day. You can move to the palace in three days."

The empress dowager was all smiles. Of course she had received the news. She also said that the Cining Palace was built exquisitely and luxuriously, and was filled with old and valuable things. It was the emperor's private vault. She was very proud in her heart, but still refused on the surface.

"Alas, I am already old, why should I go to Cining Palace? I have lived in Yonghe Palace for most of my life, and I am used to it. I will retire here in the future."

Yinzhen immediately retorted: "Your Majesty is in good health and still young, why do you say that? Besides, the Qing Dynasty is now peaceful and prosperous, and it is a good time to honor the Empress Dowager. Your Majesty does not have to refuse. If Your Majesty has any needs, I will do my best."

The Queen Mother was delighted to hear this and agreed to move the palace.

In addition, there are some concubines of the previous emperor in the harem, such as Concubine Hui, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Cheng, and Shoukang Palace cannot accommodate so many people. The Queen Mother also asked Yinzhen about his plan.

Yinzhen thought for a moment and replied: "I think the prince can take his biological mother out of the palace to raise her and enjoy the happiness of family life. This can also solve the problem of insufficient rooms in Shoukang Palace. However, how to take her out of the palace is a matter of further discussion."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "That's right. After the Emperor ascended the throne, he really had the overall situation in mind and thought carefully about everything."

The mother and son talked for a while, and the Queen Mother was still talking about her grandson: "You should bring in the women in your harem soon. I think the Chengqian Palace has been repaired almost, and the Queen should also enter the palace. And Honghui, Hongyan, Hutuli and the others, don't stay outside for too long."

Yinzhen nodded in agreement.

Yinzhen was still handling government affairs at night, writing out lists of titles one after another, and the entire Hall of Mental Cultivation was lit by candles as bright as day.

Su Peisheng watched the clock ring twelve times. It was past midnight, but the emperor showed no sign of resting. Thinking of Fu Jin's words, he had to bite the bullet and go forward to persuade him: "Your Majesty, it's already midnight. Before entering the palace, Master Chun told me to remind you to rest before midnight. You see..."

Yinzhen was so engrossed in writing that he became furious when he was disturbed.

Unexpectedly, when he heard Su Peisheng mention Changning, his anger instantly dissipated. He looked at the time and it was already midnight. He had no choice but to put down his pen and stretched his shoulders slightly: "Okay, let's take a break."

"Ah!" Su Peisheng was immediately delighted, knowing that as long as Master Chun was mentioned, it would work!

He helped Yinzhen wash and rest, and seeing that he kept moving his cervical spine, he asked hurriedly: "Your Majesty, are you tired? How about asking two palace maids to give you a massage?"

Yinzhen shook his head upon hearing this and thought, forget it. If he really let the palace maid give him a massage, and the jealous Yaoxian knew about it, she would definitely make a fuss and accuse him of "not observing male ethics" again.

Thinking of her angry and pouting appearance, Yinzhen couldn't help laughing.

Seeing that His Majesty was happy, Su Peisheng thought there was something interesting going on and wanted to call two palace maids up. But Yinzhen's next words were: "We don't need palace maids. We just need two eunuchs with strong hands."

Su Peisheng responded and stepped back.

On the second day, after Yinzhen woke up, he went to a secluded and remote palace. Although it was remote, it was very clean, and the palace servants who came and went were all respectful and polite, and knew the limits.

Yinreng had already been kneeling at the door to greet him.

Seeing his second brother, the crown prince, who used to be high and mighty, gentle as jade, and as strong as pine and cypress, now crawling at his feet, Yinzhen felt heavy in his heart, without any pride at all.

His feelings towards his second brother are complicated.

To be honest, my second brother really treated me as his younger brother and I had received a lot of care from him in the past. It was a pity that the game between him and the Emperor led to his current fate.

But he was also glad that he lost the game, otherwise it would not be his turn to go on stage.

Yinzhen looked gentle and hurriedly helped Yinreng up: "No need to be so polite, second brother."

Yinreng only smiled faintly, but still performed his duties politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I express my gratitude."

Yinzhen felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.

"Second brother, I intend to give you a title."

Yinreng shook his head: "No need. The late emperor has already stripped me of my yellow belt, so it is not appropriate for Your Majesty to confer a new title on me."

Yinzhen looked at him. The many days of vegetarianism and chanting Buddhist scriptures had made him much thinner. Although he looked as handsome as before and was in a safe situation, there was still fatigue in the corners of his eyes and brows.

"I will leave the palace, but as a father and son, I would like to ask the emperor for a favor and go to the Fengxian Hall to burn incense and kowtow to the late emperor."

Yinzhen nodded: "The mansion outside has been renovated for my second brother, and Hongxi and my second sister-in-law have already moved in."

Yinreng raised his head, looked at his brother who had grown up to be the emperor, and smiled: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

Yinzhen didn't want to see him depressed, and he felt a surge of anger in his chest: "Why do you have to belittle yourself, second brother? I know your talents. The Japanese pirates in the south have been active recently, and I have decided to send troops to fight. I will definitely be able to use you in the future."

At this point, Yinreng's expression relaxed a little. He took a long breath, knelt down again, and kowtowed earnestly: "If the state summons me, and the emperor orders me to do so, Yinreng will not refuse even if his death is a hundredfold."

After sending Yinreng away, Yinzhen felt relieved.

Three days later, the coronation ceremony was successfully held.

Defei was also successfully honored as the Holy Mother Empress Dowager and lived in the Cining Palace.

Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong were honored as the Imperial Father's Concubine Dowager, Concubine Cheng was also honored as the Imperial Father's Concubine Cheng, Concubine Mi was honored as the Imperial Father's Concubine Mi, and Concubine Min, the biological mother of the Thirteenth Prince, was posthumously honored as Imperial Noble Concubine Jingmin.

Upon hearing this, the Thirteenth Brother couldn't help but burst into tears. The Fourth Brother still remembered, and finally gave his mother some honor.

Princess Wen Ke and Princess Dun Ke have not died early as in history, and have gradually taken on the responsibilities of princesses. They are even more excited to hear the news that their mothers have been posthumously conferred the title of Imperial Noble Consort.

After the previous emperor's concubines are canonized, they become the new emperor's concubines.

The ceremony of crowning Changning as queen was also very grand.

Logically speaking, if a queen was to be carried in from the Daqing Gate, there was a condition: the new emperor had no legitimate wife when he ascended the throne, and the wedding must take place in the imperial palace.

Changning naturally does not meet this condition.

When Yinzhen first proposed that he let her enter through the Daqing Gate, re-perform the marriage ceremony between the emperor and the empress, and have the empress's phoenix sedan carried in with great fanfare, he was opposed by many people in the court.

But the objection was ineffective.

Because the emperor has made up his mind.

Also, the person in charge of this matter is the newly appointed Minister of Rites, Fu Cha Changhua.
