Secrets of Yuqing Palace

In March, the princes were crowned queens, and soon it was time for the beauties to enter the palace for re-selection.

This time, the beauties entered the palace for the re-selection, which was arranged by the Crown Princess Wanyu and the four concubines.

Wanyu heard shocking news from Concubine Yi.

It is said that the wife of Prince Zhi (the first wife), Irgen Jueluo, is in increasingly poor health.

Now it depends entirely on precious medicinal materials to survive.

Although she tried her best to give birth to the eldest son for Prince Zhi, Concubine Nara was still dissatisfied with her.

Especially a few years ago, after the eldest wife's father, Minister of Personnel Korkun, was dismissed by the emperor.

This branch of the Irgen Gioro clan could hardly provide much help to Yinzhen in the court.

In addition, the eldest son was not only born too late, but also not very strong, so he needed to be carefully taken care of.

And now the Prince of Zhi has only one prince.

This is what Princess Nara cannot accept the most!

Especially seeing that the wife of Prince Zhi is now so sick, not only can she no longer give birth to a legitimate son for Prince Zhi, but also makes Prince Zhi worry about her all the time. Now he only stays with the wife and never goes to his concubines.

According to Concubine Yi, Concubine Nara felt that the wife of Prince Zhi was not only useless, but also occupied the position of the legitimate wife of Prince Zhi, and found her a bit of an eyesore.

Princess Nara wished that the wife of Prince Zhi would die immediately, so that she could take advantage of this election to find a wife with a better family background for her son.

But now it is obvious that this is not possible.

And now that his son has been conferred the title of Prince, he can have a concubine.

Therefore, Princess Nara planned to choose a concubine with a good family background for her son in this election.

After the current wife of Prince Zhi passes away, I will choose a wife for him with a better family background.

In this way, she would have the opportunity to choose more wives and concubines with good family backgrounds for Yinreng.

Wanyu thought that Concubine Nara's plan was quite shrewd, but she didn't know whether Prince Zhi would cooperate with her.

After all, she knew that the Prince of Zhi didn't seem to have a concubine.

Look at how worried, anxious and regretful he is about to be with his wife. When his wife is sick and dying, how could he possibly accept another concubine coming into the mansion and accelerating her life?

In addition, Prince Hongyu's health was not very good. If a scheming woman entered the Prince of Zhi's Mansion, I wonder if the eldest son who was exchanged for the life of Prince Zhi's wife can still survive?

From all aspects, it is estimated that Princess Nara was just too enthusiastic about shaving her head.

But these have nothing to do with Wanyu.

She was working with Concubine Yi to select concubines and palace maids for Yin'er and Yin'e.

The main person who made the choice was Concubine Yi. Wanyu was just a sister-in-law, so it was not appropriate for her to get involved in the affairs of her brother-in-law's harem.

However, the place where Yin'e lives now is not suitable for female relatives.

Yin'e lived in the middle school of the South Third Building, in the front yard.

In the middle courtyard, which was behind him, lived the twelfth prince Yinzhen.

If Yinzhen wanted to leave the central courtyard, he would have to pass through the front courtyard, so it would not be appropriate to let female relatives in.

Yin'e is now a Beizi, and it is not appropriate for him to let his brother move to the back hall of the East Palace just because of a woman.

So Yin'e decided to wait until he moved out of the palace and then let Concubine Yi and his second sister-in-law choose a concubine for him.

But Concubine Yi still planned to select the person in advance.

It is also a good opportunity to raise him in advance and then send him directly to the Tenth Prince's Mansion.

In the end, Concubine Yi selected two princesses for Yinzhen from the shortlist.

Wanyan clan, daughter of Wang Da;

Zhaojia, daughter of Manaha.

The ones chosen for Yin'e were Shumulu and Guoluo.

This Shumulu was the daughter of the fifth-rank governor of Shuntian Prefecture.

Another Guo Luoluo was the daughter of Yongbao, a fifth-rank official.

Although Guo Luoluo and Concubine Yi have the same surname, they are not from the same clan.

On the contrary, she is a relative of the Eighth Concubine Guo Luoluo, who is already five generations away from her.

Although the two men had ordinary family backgrounds, they were both handsome and had good looks, and they also had an old Manchu surname.

What surprised Wanyu was that in this election, Concubine Uya also bestowed two princesses on Yinzhen.

I think it’s because of the “inside information” leaked by Liang Jiugong of the Qianqing Palace.

After all, the emperor had no intention of making Yinzhen a prince because he had been causing too much trouble for her.

It was only after the Crown Prince mentioned Empress Xiaoyi that the Emperor changed his mind.

This also shows that the emperor was dissatisfied with Concubine Uya's attitude towards Prince Yong.

Otherwise, the emperor would not have changed his mind.

Moreover, the fact that she was harshly treating her own children caused a lot of discussion in the palace, even among those who always appeared to be harmonious.

This time, in order to restore her image in front of the emperor and to dispel the rumors about her and Prince Yong in the palace, Concubine Uya directly bestowed two princesses on Prince Yong.

One was Huifa Nara, and the other was Uya, the niece of Concubine Uya.

.......

After the election, Kangxi issued several imperial edicts in succession.

The candidate for Yinzhen’s first wife has been chosen.

A first-rank military official in the capital, the daughter of General Dong E Qishi (Qi Shi).

The marriage has only been granted, and the wedding date has not yet been set.

After issuing the imperial decree to grant the marriage, the emperor ordered the ninety-two princes to move out of the palace in May and live in their own prince's mansions from then on.

After the construction of the Tenth Prince's Mansion was completed, Wanyu and Yinreng arranged a carriage to send Yin'e's belongings stored in Yuqing Palace to the Tenth Prince's Mansion.

Now that Faka has become the chief secretary of the Tenth Prince, all matters are handled by his uncle Faka for his nephew Yin'e.

He also issued an edict, ordering the Eighth Prince Yinsi and Guo Luoluo to marry on the second day of July.

Wanyu has been very busy during the election.

So when her niece Ning Chuge was one year old, she did not leave the palace to witness her niece's one-year-old ceremony.

He just asked Xia Lu, who was by his side, to go to Prince Yong's Mansion in person to deliver gifts to Concubine Mu and the Second Princess.

So after the election, Wanyu couldn't wait to summon Concubine Mu and the Second Princess into the palace.

Wanyu also met her little niece who just turned one year old.

The little girl was wearing an exquisite red brocade dress with fine patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar.

Her little face was pink and tender. She was held in the arms of her nanny, and her big watery eyes looked around curiously.

The eyes were dark and bright, as if they hid stars.

Wanyu first pulled her second sister up and down to look her up and down.

Ever since her second sister became pregnant, she has never left the Prince Yong's Mansion for the sake of the child in her womb.

So the two sisters haven't seen each other for about two years.

Seeing her second sister standing in front of her, Wanyu was very happy.

Wanlin was very excited to see her third sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Especially since her third sister was still the same as before, without much change, she knew that her third sister was living well.

This makes me feel a lot more relaxed.

When she tried hard to get rid of the idea of ​​marrying into the Eastern Palace and successfully became the concubine of the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, she felt fortunate and excited.

But when she learned that her third sister had become the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, the guilt in her heart almost overwhelmed her.

Now that she saw her third sister was fine, she felt much better.

The two sisters looked at each other, their eyes slightly red.

Wanlin's eyes were red as she squatted and saluted:

"My name is Guaerjia, and I'm honored to meet the Crown Princess."

The wet nurse holding Ning Chuge behind her also saluted.

Wanyu suppressed the bitterness in her heart and helped the man up with a smile.

"No need to be so polite, Concubine."
