Chapter 7 Kangxi's Harem Wins Everyday
An Ning had just received the imperial edict not long ago, and the concubines in the harem also knew about the situation.
Everyone was a little shocked!
First of all, An Ning's status is indeed high. She is one of the eight major surnames in Manchuria. Not to mention anything else, she is worthy of being the queen.
Secondly, her first title was that of a concubine, and she was the only Manchu military flag to enter the palace during this selection.
Others were just shocked at most, but Concubine De was a little puzzled. She knew the inside story. An Ning was originally going to be her daughter-in-law, but ended up becoming her "colleague" and "sister."
An Ning was good-looking, but just good-looking. After the death of the Empress Dowager, most of the women who entered Kangxi's harem were Han army banner girls from humble family backgrounds, or Han girls brought back from the southern tours.
No matter how you look at it, An Ning shouldn't have entered the palace, but she did.
"Has the emperor ever met Concubine Shu before?"
"There shouldn't be any in the palace. The emperor only sent someone to take care of Shupin after she fell into the water, and he has never seen her in private."
"This is weird! It shouldn't happen!"
Defei was just puzzled, but she didn't think An Ning was a threat. Although An Ning had a high status, she entered the palace too late. Now the structure of the harem had been determined, and even if An Ning gave birth to a prince, she would not be able to compete.
The other people in the harem who had royal princes basically shared the same idea as Concubine De. They were more of a watcher of the fun when An Ning entered the palace, or they thought that Kangxi made this arrangement out of some considerations, so they were all waiting and watching.
When Dong E received the imperial edict, she felt the sky became even bluer when she heard the words of the Fourth Lady.
After all her efforts, she finally got what she wanted.
In this life, it is her turn to sit on the throne of the queen.
After being happy, Dong E immediately asked someone to inquire about the situation of Shumulu and An Ning. After learning that Shumulu had become the third wife, she felt that it was indeed the case.
But when she learned that An Ning entered the palace and became Kangxi's concubine, she couldn't help but be surprised.
To outsiders, An Ning was just a beautiful girl who entered the palace as a concubine. Although Kangxi was a little older, this was not a big deal.
But in Dong E's eyes, An Ning had been Kangxi's daughter-in-law for her entire life. She really couldn't understand. Even if she had planned for An Ning to fall into the water, how could she have ended up entering the palace? It didn't make sense!
But it was better for her to enter the palace. Dong E knew that Kangxi liked Han women, and An Ning's appearance could only be described as dignified and pretty. Even if she was lucky enough to give birth to the emperor, she was destined to be an ordinary concubine in this life.
She wants to be the future queen and then become the queen mother.
Dong E's eyes were full of ambition and desire.
At this time, at the Unalana Mansion, after receiving the imperial edict, Fei Yanggu and Jueluo felt it was ridiculous.
An Ning is the only daughter in the family. Before the talent show, they had a tacit understanding with the royal family that if nothing unexpected happened, An Ning would be the Fourth Lady. But an accident happened and An Ning fell into the water.
Originally they thought that An Ning would give up her marriage and go home to get married, but Kangxi directly issued an imperial decree to allow An Ning to enter the palace.
Fei Yanggu and Jueluo, as parents, truly loved An Ning. If Empress Xiaoyi had not taken a liking to An Ning before her death, they would not even have been willing to let An Ning enter the prince's backyard.
As a result, An Ning entered the harem, a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. How could they feel at ease?
Trying his best to adjust his mentality, Fei Yanggu forced a smile.
"Thank you for making this trip, eunuch. I wonder when Madam Shu will be able to come back so that I can ask Madam Fu-jin to prepare."
"Empress Shu lives in the palace. She was the first to receive the imperial edict. I think she will be back in the afternoon. The emperor values her so much that he has allowed her to bring her dowry into the palace. Please prepare it in advance with you and your wife."
Fei Yanggu felt somewhat comforted when he heard this, at least she was allowed to bring a dowry.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. Please remind me what the dowry should be."
Liang Jiugong said that the eunuch who announced the decree smiled and replied: "It doesn't have to exceed the standards of Empress Xiaoyi when she first entered the palace."
Empress Xiaoyi entered the palace as a concubine, and Kangxi specially allowed her to bring a dowry into the palace, which was only slightly less than that of Empress Yuan, Hesheli. It seems that the emperor was very good to his own daughter.
Fei Yanggu handed over a thick purse and asked some more questions. The eunuch who announced the decree said everything that could be said, and Fei Yanggu tactfully did not ask about what could not be said.
Both parties are very satisfied with each other.
After An Ning received the imperial edict, she returned to her room and was a little dazed, but she quickly recovered.
As a person who has lived through the end of the world, she is used to suffering and the cruelty of the world. Since she was able to survive, her character is naturally not bad, and it is not unacceptable for her to be a concubine of an old man.
I heard that Kangxi was diligent in exercising and was good at riding and shooting, so I thought he should be in good shape. He was born into a royal family, was good at health preservation, and had many children, so I thought he should not be too bad.
Thinking of this, An Ning slowly accepted her situation.
All I can say is that humans have a strong ability to adapt.
Chunlan entered the room and asked with concern: "Your Highness, I will pack my things. Your Highness will arrange for you to go home in the afternoon."
An Ning smiled and said, "Thank you, Imperial Concubine, for your concern. I'm also sorry to bother you and Aunt Wulan."
Chunlan could see that An Ning was uneasy and seemed unwilling to enter the palace. She could also understand that Kangxi was not young after all.
But looking at An Ning's current state, it seems that she has adjusted her thoughts. This is also good. Chunlan knows that she will probably have to follow An Ning forever in the future, so naturally she hopes to serve a master who is a smart person.
In the afternoon, everyone in the Ulanala Mansion was waiting for An Ning to come back.
An Ning sat in the carriage, feeling uneasy. Although she had the memories of her original body, she was not the original body. She could act, but she could not truly empathize with the original body.
The original body couldn't swim, and if she hadn't come, the original body would have died. An Ning didn't feel that she owed the original body a life, but it was true that she got the original body's body for nothing.
All she could do was to protect herself in the harem. She couldn't die for the Ulanara family, but she tried her best not to implicate the Ulanara clan.
Thinking of this, An Ning's heart gradually calmed down.
Chunlan saw that An Ning looked unhappy, so she asked hurriedly, "Madam, are you feeling unwell?"
An Ning shook her head: "I've never been away from home for so long, so it's inevitable that I feel homesick, but it's okay."
Chunlan said a few words of comfort and the carriage stopped.
With a sigh of relief and a smile on her face, An Ning got off the carriage.
At the gate of Ulanala Mansion, Fei Yanggu and Jueluo were waiting for An Ning along with a group of masters and servants. When they saw An Ning coming down, they all knelt down to greet her.
An Ning looked at the people kneeling on the ground and hurriedly helped the elder in front of her up.
Speaking of which, the rules in ancient times were unreasonable. It was uncomfortable to watch parents kneeling down in front of their daughters.
An Ning: "Father, please get up quickly. This is really frustrating for your daughter."
Fei Yanggu: "Rituals cannot be abolished."
An Ning spoke again and asked everyone to get up, then entered the mansion.
After entering the house, Fei Yanggu sent his son away. Jueluo learned from An Ning that Chunlan and Ulan Ma were both imperial servants, so she was very polite.
"Miss Chunlan, Madam Wulan has worked hard on the journey. I have asked someone to prepare some food for you and Madam Chunlan to enjoy for the time being."
Chunlan and Aunt Ulan naturally understood that Jueluo wanted to get them away so that she could have a private conversation with her daughter.
They are naturally sensible about this.
Aunt Wulan: "Thank you, Madam. Chunlan and I are a little hungry. Madam is so thoughtful."
Jueluo asked her personal nanny to personally arrange the two of them, and then they entered An Ning's boudoir.
There were only mother and daughter in the room. Jueluo looked distressed. An Ning forced a smile, which was a little stiff. She didn't know how to face this mother who loved her daughter so much.
Jueluo didn't think much about it.
