Secrets of Yuqing Palace

After entering the main room and waiting for everyone to sit down, there was indeed a huge crowd of people.

Wanyu looked at the women in the room and couldn't help but sigh that her maternal grandfather's family, the Shaji Fucha clan, was really prosperous.

Fucha is an old Manchu surname, and Guo Luomafa is Fucha Misihan, who was born in a family of generals.

His father, Fucha Hashun, was successively granted the title of first-class male, and was given the title of Yunqiwei and Prince Taibao.

His mother was Hongdaizi Jueluo.

Mi Sihan was highly valued by Emperor Kangxi during his lifetime. He was promoted to the position of General Manager of the Imperial Household Department, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and was listed as a Councillor of State, and was also appointed as the Prince's Grand Tutor.

Unfortunately, he died of illness at the end of the 13th year of the Kangxi reign, at the age of 44.

Guo Luomafa had two wives in total.

His first wife was Muqijueluo, who gave birth to my eldest uncle Fuca Maska and my second uncle Fuca Machi.

And his own wife, Guo Luomama, was the second wife of the Borjigit clan, who married into the Fucha family after the death of the first wife.

The situation of Guo Luoma Mama is very similar to that of her own mama, Lady Guaerjia Jueluo.

Moreover, after Guo Luomama married into the Fucha family, she took care of her husband and children, and took good care of the two legitimate sons of the original wife.

Putting herself in other people's shoes, Mama Jueluo really admired and valued Guo Luo Mama's character.

I think she has good character and the daughter she raises should be pretty good too.

That's why he came forward to ask for the Fucha family's legitimate daughter to marry his father Shi Wenzhuo.

Guo Luoma gave birth to two sons and one daughter.

My third uncle Fucha Mawu, my mother Fucha, and my son Fucha Li Rongbao.

Now, except for the youngest uncle Li Rongbao, the first three uncles in the Fucha family have already married and had children.

Moreover, the Fucha family has always been dominated by men, with more male heirs than females, and the number of male heirs in the family far exceeds that of female heirs.

Mi Sihan had only two daughters, one legitimate and one illegitimate.

Because there are few girls in the family, although there is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, the difference is not very big, and both are highly valued.

Although Aunt Wanyu was born out of wedlock, she was the eldest daughter of the Fucha family and was loved by the elders at the beginning.

However, I heard from my mother that this aunt had a somewhat ostentatious and domineering personality because she was spoiled.

Especially after the birth of E'niang's legitimate daughter, everyone paid more attention to the legitimate daughter, which caused an imbalance in their hearts.

The two of them didn't get along very well, and this aunt did a lot of annoying wrong things when she was at home.

Later, Guo Luomama was really annoyed with her. She didn't want to make her life easy, but she didn't want to lose her dignity as a wife in front of Guo Luomafa.

After discussing it privately, they married her to Guo Luoma Famishihan's aunt's house.

He gave Shan Qihai, the first-class guard of Shijue Luo, to him as his third wife.

On the surface, since she married into her great-aunt's family and her husband was a first-class guard, it was already a very good marriage.

You should know that the first-class guard has the highest status among the guards and can be regarded as the emperor's closest confidant.

Not only did they enjoy higher salaries, but they also often had the opportunity to have direct contact with the emperor. Therefore, it was also an important way to get promoted and gain the emperor's trust.

At least in the eyes of others, this is a very good marriage.

But the "third" stepwife is a little unusual.

In addition to this aunt and mother, there are now more than a dozen grandchildren in the Fucha family, but only one of them is a girl.

My eldest uncle married Nala, the middle-aged woman who was in the yard at the beginning and reminded Guo Luomama to come into the house and sit down to talk.

He had two legitimate sons, Fuca Namuzhu and Fuca Naltai, both of whom were married.

As the eldest grandson's wife and the second grandson's wife, they are now in this main courtyard.

In addition, there are two illegitimate sons born to concubines, one of whom is already married, and the other is not yet of marriageable age and is not in good health.

My second uncle, Fucha Machi, married Wanyan and had two sons and one daughter.

My second uncle now has six sons and one daughter.

The eldest son Fuldun, the third son Fuqing, and the only daughter Unashi were all born to his legitimate wife.

However, my second aunt, Wanyan, is pregnant again. Looking at her pale face, I know that the pregnancy is not auspicious and seems a bit forced.

I don’t know whether this child can be born healthy.

Looking at the other person's haggard appearance, it's understandable.

After all, my second aunt is older than my mother, and her physical functions are beginning to decline, so she really can't bear the pain of giving birth to a child.

Fuldun and Fuqing have both married, and their wives are now living in this main courtyard.

One of them took care of his mother-in-law Wanyan, who was pregnant, and the other took care of his sister-in-law Unaxi.

Wu Naxi is not only the only daughter of the second wife, but also the only daughter of the entire Fucha family, and she is also the legitimate daughter.

She has a high status and is the most favored among the grandchildren. The whole family loves her very much.

The little girl was born in the 25th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. She is only 6 years old now, at the age of being cute and lively.

Wanyu always thought that this girl should be the one who married the legitimate wife of Emperor Kangxi's twelfth prince, Aisin Gioro Yinlu, Fucha.

After all, the second uncle of the Fucha Mansion has only this one daughter, and the one who marries the prince as his legitimate wife must be a legitimate daughter.

The only one who fits the bill is Unashi.

Looking at her little cousin who was smiling shyly and sweetly at her, Wanyu had a friendly smile on her face, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Because as far as she knew, the twelfth prince Yinluo eventually died without an heir.

It’s not that no children were born, but that no male heir was raised.

In the end, Qianlong gave his fourth son as his successor to the twelfth prince.

This shows how fierce the fight in his backyard was.

In addition to these three legitimate sons, the second house also has four illegitimate brothers.

The second son died young, the fourth son was Fude, the fifth son was Fuguang, and the sixth son was Fucheng.

Therefore, the only living descendants of the second branch are five sons, one daughter, and the child in Wanyan's womb.

My third uncle was Fu Cha Ma Wu, the eldest son born to Guo Luomama, and his wife was Dong E.

The third house now has a total of four children, but I heard that one of the concubines just found out that she is pregnant, and it is not known whether it is a boy or a girl.

My third aunt gave birth to two legitimate sons, Sakcha and Sarah.

The bastards are Nara and Baozhu

My fourth uncle Li Rongbao is still unmarried, but I heard he is already looking for a wife.

But Wanyu knew that if nothing unexpected happened, her fourth uncle should marry a woman from the Red Belt Jueluo clan.

She was the mother of Emperor Qianlong's Empress Xiaoxianchun.

While Wanyu was paying attention to the people in the house, she also noticed that someone seemed to be looking at her.

She followed her senses and looked over, and found that it was her third aunt.

She subconsciously gave a well-behaved smile, and her third aunt also smiled back gently.

Speaking of which, my third uncle is my closest uncle by blood, so I should be closest to my third aunt.

But in fact, compared with her eldest aunt and second aunt, she is not that close to her third aunt.

It can be said that this third aunt is very low-key in the Fucha Mansion.

He has always been gentle, never conflicts with others, and rarely appears in public.

Apart from occasionally visiting the main courtyard to pay respects to his mother-in-law, he spends most of his time in his own courtyard taking care of the affairs of the third house.

But considering her last name, it makes sense.

Ever since the incident of Empress Xiaoxian Dong E, many people have kept their distance from this surname.

Although no one pointed it out, everyone with a discerning eye could see that several masters in the palace disliked the Empress Xiaoxian at the time.

At that time, she entered the palace because of her sensitive status and was not favored by the Empress Dowager.

Emperor Shunzhi's favor for Empress Xiaoxian led to the dethronement of the Empress's niece, who was demoted to Concubine Jing.

Later, her great-niece Borjigit Altan Qiqige succeeded to the throne, but not only was she not favored, she was also suppressed by Shunzhi many times.

There are even rumors that this queen has never served the emperor in bed.

Not only that, Emperor Shunzhi also held a very grand ceremony to enthrone Dong Efei, and issued an edict of amnesty for the world in accordance with the ceremony of enthroning the queen.

He also made exceptions and honored Dong E many times, and even wanted to depose the queen again and then make Dong E the queen.

It can be said that if it were not for the protection of the Grand Empress Dowager, the current Empress Dowager would have been deposed several times by Shunzhi at that time.

The Grand Empress Dowager and the current Empress Dowager can be said to be women who hate Dong E very much.

The emperor was not loved by Shunzhi since he was a child. When Empress Xiaoxian gave birth to the fourth son, Prince Heshuo Rong.

Shunzhi was very happy and issued an edict to the world, "This is my first son." He treated the child as if he were a legitimate son and had the intention of appointing him as the crown prince.

It can be said to be a heavy slap in the face of all the descendants at that time.

The men in the Aisin Gioro family are all narrow-minded, especially those who become emperors.

At that time, I was young and weak and had no ability to resist my father. Now that I am the emperor, can't I take a little revenge?

Although it was not stated explicitly, the person in power revealed some of his intentions, and the people below followed suit, and life became less easy for the Dong E family.

Especially for the women of the Dong'e clan, the marriage market was very bad because of the incident of Empress Xiaoxian.

So it is reasonable for my third aunt to be so cautious now.
