Quick Wear: I was a Favored Concubine in the Qing Dynasty
Chapter 105: Yongzheng Years Concubine
Yu Sui's new task was to be Yongzheng's Imperial Concubine Nian.
Just looking at Concubine Nian's life story, Yu Sui was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.
She took a few sets of Qing Dynasty clothes that she always had on hand and went to buy some more things to prepare. Then she chatted with the original owner for a few more words before going to this novel world.
Nian was the Imperial Noble Consort Dunsu of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty. She was a woman of both talent and beauty, but she did not have a good ending.
Fortunately, the original owner's wish was not about love between men and women, but just wanting a few children to grow up safely.
When Nian was young, her father was a high-ranking official at the provincial and ministerial level, and with her two talented older brothers, her background was very good.
But the bad thing happened in the 48th year of Kangxi's reign. The Nian family was transferred from Yanshou to the Fourth Master by Kangxi. The close relationship between the Nian family and the Eighth Master became precarious. The Nian family was both a tool for Kangxi to divide the Nian family and a sacrifice for the Nian family to surrender to the Fourth Master.
Think about the wife of Nian Gengyao, the second brother of the Nian family. Just the fact that she is the daughter of Kuixu shows that the relationship between the Nian family and the Nalan family is predictably close. And the relationship between the Nalan family and the Eighth Prince is also very close. After all this twists and turns, and with the incident of the deposed crown prince, the Eighth Prince was recommended twice as a candidate for the new crown prince. The Nian family is just being used to weaken the power of the Eighth Prince's party.
It is not known whether it was Kangxi who took the initiative or the Fourth Master who fanned the flames.
There is no doubt that Nian Gengyao was highly regarded.
After reviewing this, Yu Suisui realized that Nian was just a victim of politics.
The men's power struggle was paid for by a fifteen-year-old girl.
It is indeed the ancient world.
As for Yongzheng's love for Nian, this is just a placebo, I don't know who it is comforting.
Nian was cautious throughout her life. After the Fourth Master became emperor, Nian had to let the Fourth Master look through all the family letters before she could read them. This was truly too much love.
The word "cautious" appearing between two people in love is a joke just by looking at it, so Yu Suisui doesn't think there is love between them.
It is true that he was favored for ten years, but it is also true that he did not love her. The Fourth Master was a man of unstable moods. This is what Kangxi said. Even if it may be exaggerated, his temper was really not good.
When the original owner entered the mansion, Li had already fallen out of favor. As for the remaining concubine, she only cared about her power as the housekeeper. Niuhulu's appearance did not meet the Fourth Master's aesthetic standards. Geng did have some favor in the Fourth Master's eyes, but the Fourth Master only loved women under the age of 30.
If you look closely, you will find that the Fourth Master's preferences do not include mature women.
Yu Sui turned 16 years old in the fiftieth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, which was the day the original owner entered the palace. She sat on the wedding bed in Minguang Courtyard, so let's call her that for now.
It was also her first time to participate in a wedding, if a concubine's wedding could be considered a wedding.
Yu Sui lifted her veil and took a look at the light red bed curtains. Seeing no one in the room, she quickly took a few life-saving pills.
Yu Suisui felt that his butt was numb from sitting all the time before the Fourth Master finally arrived. After lifting the annoying veil, Yu Suisui took the opportunity to look at the Fourth Master. He had a thin face and was a little dark, probably from the sun. After all, the Fourth Master now liked to farm and talk about Taoism.
His face had a dull expression, without any of the joy of a wedding. His figure was currently unknown, and she couldn't confirm the layered dress, but at the moment, the Fourth Master didn't seem ugly, and wasn't too old, thirty-four years old.
"Greetings to the Fourth Master." Yu Suisui paid her respects to the Fourth Master first according to the rules. She half-squatted, but unfortunately her butt was a little numb and she was a little shaky.
The Fourth Master raised his hand, his voice even colder than his expression, "Stand up."
Yu Suisui stood up as she was told and lowered her head. She felt a little hungry and didn't dare to speak. It seemed that the Fourth Master was not happy today.
Seeing that no one moved, the Fourth Master had no choice but to call someone in to serve him. The words "Nian" kept turning over in his mouth.
When she got to the bed, Yu Suisui had no choice but to lie straight on it, with even her fingers stretched out together on both sides of her body. She really had no idea of her current situation, so she had to be cautious in everything.
Seeing that she was nervous, the Fourth Master had no words of comfort, let alone actions. With a face as beautiful as a hibiscus and skin as soft as snow, the Fourth Master raised Yu Sui's hand above her head, and their fingers were clasped together, and they were covered in hot sweat and sticky, and it was difficult to tell them apart.
This was still a night when Yu Sui felt that the Fourth Master was in good physical condition.
When she woke up the next day, Yu Sui's pillow was already cold, but she didn't care. She called Chun Fei and Qiu Xiang, the two maids that the original owner brought from the Nian family, to come in and help her wash up.
Yu Suisui is going to pay her respects and offer tea to the Fourth Lady today, only then can she truly become the Fourth Master's concubine.
The Fourth Lady was a kind person. She arranged the time in the morning, so Yu Suisui could have a simple breakfast before going over. The Fourth Master had already returned to his study, taking a Taoist book and studying it carefully.
There was absolutely no intention of accompanying Yu Suisui to the main courtyard.
Yu Suisui understood why the original owner was so cautious and why her life in the Fourth Master's mansion was like walking on thin ice.
She comes from a good family and was raised by her family since she was a child. But now that she is married, her life has suddenly fallen to the bottom. On the first day of marriage, she did not receive any care from her husband and had to meet his wife on her own. This 15-year-old girl, no matter how good her mentality is, will feel uncomfortable for a while.
Not to mention that the original owner was a sensitive person.
It's good that you didn't cry.
When they arrived at the main courtyard, the Fourth Master's wives and concubines took their seats according to their seating arrangement. The first thing Yu Suisui did when he entered was to greet the Fourth Master and offer him tea.
The fourth wife is 31 years old this year, with a face like a bright moon and a pair of bright phoenix eyes. The tail of her eyes is slightly upturned, which makes her look a bit fierce.
Concubine Li was also extremely beautiful, with a peach blossom face and willow-shaped eyebrows. The difference between her and Concubine Li was that her phoenix eyes were slightly drooping, giving her a somewhat graceful look like a girl from the south of the Yangtze River.
It’s not that Niuhulu is ugly, but she is much inferior to Li. Even Geng, who entered the palace with her, could not compare to her beauty.
But what's the big deal? She was pregnant and gave birth to a son named Yuanshou.
It is said that a mother is honored by her son, but the Fourth Master is very clear about the difference. He likes his son, not his mother.
After Yu Suisui exchanged greetings with everyone, Fu Jin began to speak.
"In the future, we will all be sisters. We need to love each other, but no dirty things must happen in the mansion." The wife's tone was a little serious. She knew the current situation in the mansion. It was said privately before that Niuhulu would be promoted to concubine.
With the arrival of Nian, there was absolutely no hope for Nianhulu, but what difference did it make to her who became her concubine?
To her, Niuhuru, a minor official from the Eight Banners family, and Nian, a high-ranking official from the Han Army Banner, were the same.
Niuhulu lowered her head and drank tea. Fu Jin's words were a warning to her.
Yu Suisui didn't say anything either. She knew the procedure for a new person to enter the mansion.
Concubine Li looked at the people sitting there. Her son was now the eldest son, so these people were not to be feared. However, Concubine Li still had to give them face.
Geng lowered her head and looked at her hands. What did it have to do with her? Fu Jin was not talking about her.
Song, who was the first to serve the Fourth Master, had been ill ever since she lost her daughter in the 45th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. She was not always seen during important festivals and events. It was normal that she was not seen during Yu Sui's tea ceremony.
As for the others, there are only a few cats of the rank of princesses in the Fourth Master's mansion, and the rest of the wives are not seen, so why should she see them?
After visiting Fu Jin, Yu Sui discovered the truth that the Fourth Master favored Nian alone. It turned out that there were not many people in the Fourth Master's mansion now.
