The Queen of the TV Series: Take turns to sit in my house this year

Fat Orange was startled when he heard this. "Wanwan," he said after coming back to his senses. He turned sideways and held Yixiu's hand, patting it gently and saying, "If Wanwan were here, she would definitely be happy to see Lingxi getting married. Yixiu, you have raised the two children very well. Ye and Wanwan were not wrong about them."

"Fourth Master." Yixiu looked at him with tears in her eyes, an expression of deep affection and the feeling of being trusted by her lover.

Concubine Nian, who was standing not far away, felt very uncomfortable when she saw how the couple treated each other with respect, and it showed on her face.

"Fujin." Mickey Mouse Songzhi immediately sensed her master's mood and quietly tugged at Nian Shilan's sleeve, signaling her not to lose her composure. Little Nian Gao pouted proudly and restrained his expression.

After the Fourth Princess returned home, two other princesses in the palace, Feng (Princess Jing) and Xu (the Concubine Fang who had a miscarriage in Suiyuxuan in the original drama), became pregnant one after another.

In the same year, Tsewang Arabtan, the leader of the Mongol Dzungar tribe entrenched in the northwest, launched a rebellion, and the 60,000-strong army led by Chuan Erdan was completely wiped out.

In anger, Kangxi planned to choose one of his sons to be named "Grand General King" and let him lead the northwest army to quell the rebellion.

Fat Ju followed the advice of his staff and strongly recommended his half-brother, the fourteenth prince Yinzhen, to the court.

In May of the following year, Feng, a lady from Prince Yong's mansion, gave birth safely to a daughter, who became the seventh lady of the mansion; in August, Xu, a lady from Prince Yong's mansion, gave birth to the eighth lady.

In the 59th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, on the Spring Equinox, the deposed Crown Prince died drunk and never woke up again. Upon hearing the news, Kangxi wept heartbreakingly, "My dear Baocheng! How could you be so cruel and abandon me like this! Baocheng—"

Guaerjia, dressed in mourning clothes, led a group of concubines and children to kneel on the ground and cry.

After Yinreng was deposed for the second time, the fourth brother's wife secretly struck a deal with her: she would give up a husband with no chance of becoming emperor, and protect her family and daughter from liquidation after the new emperor ascended the throne. It was a very good deal, so good that even the sister-in-law next door was tempted.

Therefore, at Prince Limi's funeral, Kangxi received another piece of bad news - his eldest son was too happy after learning that his mortal enemy had passed away. Just now, he died of excessive excitement!

Kangxi: ...! Bastard! My Baoqing——

The emperor's tears were worthless. After the two funerals, Kangxi, who had seen his son die young, could no longer bear the blow and fell seriously ill.

The eighth prince Yinsi was ready to make a move again, but was completely removed from the list of heirs by the sick Kangxi.

He is old and cannot hold on for much longer. He originally wanted to appoint three princes, but Baocheng passed away first. He wanted to support Hongxi, but Honghui from the fourth family was not bad either.

If he really establishes a crown prince, how can we be sure that the Qing Dynasty will not repeat the mistakes of Emperor Hui of the Ming Dynasty?

Just when he was hesitant, Honghui, with the help of Yixiu, presented a method of treating smallpox with cowpox, adding another bargaining chip for Yinzhen's succession to the throne!

In August, Honghui's legitimate son was born. Kangxi named him Yonglian. A vessel made of coral and lily, a symbol of the ancestral temple, could be used to carry on the legacy. As soon as this name was announced, who in the court didn't know that the emperor's preferred successor was Yinzhen?

As the days passed, Kangxi's condition worsened. Finally, in the autumn of his sixty-first year, he passed away in Changchun Garden. (Historically, he died in winter, but here it's assumed Kangxi died several months earlier because his eldest son and Ma Bao had preceded him.)

After the late emperor passed away, Longkodo and Nian Gengyao, as the most trusted ministers of the late emperor, overruled all objections and produced the late emperor's "edict", passing the throne to the fourth prince Yinzhen.

Fat Orange finally reached the position he had always dreamed of and became the new master of the Forbidden City.

After Pang Ju succeeded to the throne, he named his biological mother, Concubine De, as the Holy Mother Empress Dowager and moved her to the Cining Palace.

He also posthumously conferred the title of Empress Chunyuan on his deceased first wife Rouze, and the third imperial edict was to enthrone his current wife, Ulanara Yixiu, as empress.

The couple temporarily lived together in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and although the rest of Pangju's female relatives also moved into the harem after he ascended the throne, they were not promoted immediately.

It was not until the following year, when the reign was changed to Yongzheng, that the status of the women in the imperial residence was officially determined.

Before the decree was announced, Pang Ju discussed the harem positions with Yixiu. Yixiu said generously, "Of the two concubines, Qi has both sons and daughters and has served the Emperor for many years. Her hard work and contributions are truly remarkable. Meanwhile, Nian's family background is capable and she is the Emperor's beloved. Why not give them both the title of Imperial Consort?"

Fat Orange felt that Yixiu was worthy of being Rouze's younger sister, being generous and kind, but at the same time, he felt that the position was too high. Especially for Shilan, what would happen in the future if she was given the title of Imperial Concubine now? It would be better to lower the rank.

Seeing Fatty Orange was lost in thought, Yixiu took the teacup and took a sip, then slowly said:

"Among the concubines, Song was the first to serve the Emperor, and she is also the mother of the Emperor's eldest daughter. I, your humble servant, beg the Emperor to grant her the title of concubine, which will also save Xihe's face (the eldest princess born to Song has been married to the Khorchin people).

"My two younger sisters, Ru and Geng, are both concubines. If the Emperor has no objection, how about making them both concubines?"

Pangju thought the arrangement for Song was okay, but the appointment of Ru and Geng as concubines was over.

"It's not appropriate. She's just a concubine. For the sake of the child, it's enough to make her a concubine."

Yixiu nodded in agreement and then talked about the other princesses and concubines. "As for the rest of the sisters, those who have daughters will be given the title of noble lady, those who have not given birth will be given the title of concubine for the time being, and the concubines will be given the title of concubine. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"Well, the Queen has worked hard. But the position of Imperial Concubine is still too important. Shilan and Qi should both be given the title of Imperial Concubine. I have proposed a title for Shilan. How about Hua?" Fat Ju was very excited.

"Sister Nian's face is as beautiful as Shunhua, and the character 'Hua' is very suitable for her!"

"Well," seeing Yixiu's agreement, Fat Ju's expression relaxed, and he asked Yixiu again, "Can you help me think about the title of Li?"

"How about the word 'Qi'?"

"Yes, that's right. Li is stupid and impatient. I hope she can act more prudently after receiving this title."

"So, what about the other sisters?"

"Qi, since she is truly sincere to me, I will confer her the title of Consort Duan. Have someone clean up Jingyang Palace. It is a quiet place, so let her rest in Jingyang Palace in the future."

"Yes." Anyway, it is definitely not him who is anxious and angry about Qi Yuebin, the sickly man, getting a high position.

"Song, as you said, is my first woman and she gave birth to two daughters for me. She is indeed worthy of being the head of a palace. So, you should make her a concubine."

"What about this title?"

"Let the Imperial Household Department come up with a few titles, and the Empress will help choose."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will make a careful selection."

"Hmm," Fatty Orange said, playing with his Buddhist beads, imagining Yun's appearance in his mind, his tone rather nostalgic. "Yun has always been gentle and docile. I think the word 'Wan' suits her best, so I'll confer the title of Wanpin on her."

Yixiu almost couldn't hold back her laughter! Although Yun was not young anymore, she looked more and more like Rouze. It seemed that the emperor really treated her as a substitute.

I just wonder if Zhen Huan will be given the title of Wanpin when she enters the palace in the future now that she already has Wanpin? She is really looking forward to it!

"For the others, just as you said, the daughters among the princesses will be given the title of noble ladies, and the rest will be given the title of maids. Among the concubines, Wang and Chang are relatively dedicated, so they will be given the title of concubines. The others can just be given the title of official daughters."

“Yes” is really stingy.

"As for the other palaces, I want to leave the Yikun Palace to Shilan, and the Queen will arrange the rest."

"I obey my orders."
