   Chapter 2198 The Battle of Flowers (One Hundred and Six)

There is always no shortage of such people around the emperor. As early as the early years of Qianlong's reign, Jiangnan Weaving and Lianghuai Salt Administration were using the name of the imperial court to seek beauty among the people, and even force them to buy. . This made Qianlong send it to his court to show that he had studied since he was a child, and he knew the benefits of pure heart and few desires, and that he had lived in mourning for three years and never let go.

   However, Qianlong was not very resistant to the women sent by the foreign officials. When his three-year mourning time was up, Jiangning Weaving Haibao immediately sent two Jiangnan women and an opera troupe.

   These women did not enter the court through formal channels such as drafts, and they disappeared silently. There were many such people around the Shunzhi Emperor, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty had just entered the customs at that time, and there were still many customs of nomads. Even Dorgon also married the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

  This matter is taboo in the palace, no one dares to say it outright, but it is a well-known "secret". A widow and her six-year-old son are struggling to survive surrounded by wolves, tigers and leopards, and sometimes have to make some slippers, but Fulin understands his mother at all. In contrast, he is closer to his wet nurse, Li Shi.

  Emperor Shunzhi was playful since he was a child, and no one could really control him. Bolzijit means "blue eyes" in Mongolian. This family is descended from Genghis Khan. At first, they were not one of the Eight Banners of Manchu.

  The little queen was also pampered and raised. The two "masters" together were like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Gillian Chen. Emperor Shunzhi didn't like Mongolian women with dragon and tiger aura, and he still didn't like it after changing to another empress who was the same as Bolzijit. Maybe it was because he liked the soft and graceful women of Dong'e family with Han charm. Many Manchu men were In this way, Concubine Dong E's mother is also of Han nationality, so she can't marry into the three banners, let alone compared with Borzijit of Horqin.

If Dong E's family was a woman who contributed to Jiangning Weaving, it would not have caused such a big disturbance. The key is that she was already married at that time. Enter the Butha Eight Banners.

  Because of their bravery and skill in battle, this flag suffered many deaths in battle, and because they liked alcoholism and did not like the way of life of garrison, so the population was not prosperous, but their tribe was very respected, and many of them still served in the army.

There are only two options left for Dong E's husband, either endure or die. If he kills the emperor, he will not only be beheaded by the whole family, but may also spread to the tribe. In the end, he died of depression, and the Shunzhi Emperor only let Dong E's family serve him. After being a widow for 27 days, she was taken into the palace.

Emperor Shunzhi liked Concubine Dong E, not only to improve her status and make her a concubine quickly, but also to change all the previous bad habits. Some parents can't control their sons, and they think they can control their sons by finding a daughter-in-law. without any basis.

But the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang didn't like Dong E's family. This is not a question of who is right or wrong. Later, the mother and son negotiated a rule, and then there was a draft system, so that the women the emperor liked could stay first, and the bannermen Do not marry in private, so as not to have the same thing happen again.

In the fifth year of Qianlong, this rule was reiterated. In theory, seventeen-year-old women would no longer participate in the draft, but banner women who had not been selected could not marry privately before the age of twenty. Pei made an offer and asked the emperor to allow his seventeen-year-old son to marry the daughter of Martai, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, but Martai's daughter has not participated in the draft...

Qianlong recruited the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang to the capital. He wanted to scold Depei face to face, and he even listed three reasons, not to enrich the harem for himself, not to break up other people's marriages, but this is a rule, not the responsibility of the royal family , and for three years, the woman is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and it does not delay her life.

  The matter of drafting is under the control of the Ministry of Households, because the money for Xiu Nv’s carriages is paid by the Ministry of Households, the officials of the family have their own horse-drawn carriages, and the bannermen have to hire a horse-drawn carriage. In fact, the eunuchs don't get much benefit from this matter. They have a position called "grandmother". They are women who have given birth and are also midwives. It is better to train a midwife who can take the pulse. In addition to taking the pulse, traditional Chinese medicine can also diagnose the general condition by looking and hearing it.

There are not many of them, but basically they are the ones who take the most money, not just the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Call it a lifetime of delay.

Concubine Dong E is actually not that "stunning". Anyway, Shunzhi just liked her. She died not long ago, and the nurse Li Shi also died. In addition, Concubine Dong E and his son also died. For a time, he was in despair, thinking about escape all day long. Empty door.

It would be fine if he just became a monk. The key is that he also wrote an imperial decree to let thirty eunuchs and palace maids be buried with Concubine Dong E. For a while, there was "sorrow" in the palace, and the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang also allowed it, because basically the dead Those people in Concubine Dong'e Palace, so everyone stopped howling again.

At this time, there were still people talking about the previous dynasties. When Zhu Yuanzhang died, those concubines were all "martyred". Concubines of the Tang Dynasty, such as Wu Zetian, were sent to Ganye Temple to become nuns. These concubines of the Qing Dynasty lived in What happened after the emperor died?

At this time, many people in the palace were left over from the previous dynasty, especially the eunuchs. They also knew that it was impossible to be as powerful as Silijian, the Indian **** and the factory master, but where else could they go besides the palace? Woolen cloth?

   After tossing the people inside the palace, Emperor Shunzhi started tossing the people outside the palace again. First, Concubine Dong E was posthumously named the queen, so that a national mourning would be held. All princes and below, Manchu and Han officials of the fourth rank and above, and concubines and concubines below ordered wives to go to Jingyun Gate to cry for Concubine Dong'e.

In the early days, Emperor Shunzhi was influenced by Western missionaries such as Tang Ruowang. Later, when Tang Ruowang died, Shunzhi began to get close to monks. There was a monk named Han Pu Xing Cong, a native of Fujian. Once Emperor Shunzhi went to Haihui Temple, it happened that Han Pu Xing Cong was also After placing an order there, the two chatted for a while and felt that they were in a good relationship, and then this Hanhan entered the big room and preached to the emperor on the scriptures in the Xiyuan Wanshan Hall.

  Eunuchs are also religious, they will go to temples and Taoist temples in the imperial city to burn incense, so Han Pu Xing Cong befriends them.

   This Zen Master Mingjue is from the Linji School, a sect of Zen Buddhism, and is related to Hui Neng. Han Pu Xingcong also recommended three same southern monks, one is Yulin, one is named Mu Chenbi, and the other is named Xisen, it is this Xisen who gave Shunzhi ordination a monk.

Xi Sen left his last words, "To save the emperor in the Qing Dynasty, and to talk about Zen Taoism in the Golden Palace", his personal political goals and the purpose of leaving a name for the ages may have been achieved. Yulin was furious when she found out, and ordered her apprentices to set up a fire to burn Xisen to death.

  The idea of ​​becoming a monk in Shunzhi was temporarily dispelled and his hair grew again. Not long after he was infected with smallpox, he died early.

She lost her husband in her early years and lost her son in her later years, but the Mongolian woman in Bolzijit survived. She did not experience a fiery love like Shunzhi and Concubine Dong E, but a young man full of gunpowder and war, and two generations. Powerful officials control the middle and old age of the court. After the emperor's death, the concubines of the Qing Dynasty did not have to go to burial or go to the "Ganye Temple" to become nuns. Instead, they were promoted to concubines and moved to the Concubine Palace area located east of the Forbidden City to enjoy their old age.

  In the Ming Dynasty, the area was actually very desolate, with only a few palaces, and many buildings were built during the Kangxi period. The beautiful girls of each flag's draft will distribute cars at sunset, enter Di'anmen at night, wait outside Shenwumen for the palace gate to open, and then enter Shunzhenmen under the guidance of the eunuchs in the palace, where they are examined by "grandmothers". Return the same way, and then take a car at Shenwumen. After the primary election, the show girls boarded the car when they came, and after leaving the Di'anmen, they each returned to their homes.

   This line of movement just overlaps with the way Juren usually goes from Houhai's residence to Hongbenku. That is to say, he is very likely to meet the future Fu Jin and his concubines. If he also meets each other and gets out of hand, it will be troublesome. And the show girl draft is not only for one day, but two flags a day, so he was arranged to go to the rebuilt house that was burned down in Zhengyangmen. A cheongsam that is less than a corner.

After completing the first and second rounds of selection, they have to go through the inspection of "staying in the palace", which mainly depends on whether the show girls have the habit of grinding their teeth, snoring, talking in their sleep, etc. Well, some people think it's cute, as long as his heart is still on her.

Wan Ning escaped the "first day", but not necessarily the "fifteenth". Her father wanted to recruit a son-in-law, but the emperor could also point her to marriage. After her adoptive son would inherit the incense for her father, she would confront the prince. In the same way, the Admiral will be at a loss.

   But if Cao Xi, Han Zuo, was brought in to pick up the bargain, someone would stop him. Some of the houses in Beijing were broken up and settled down. Didn’t Heshen live in the Donkey Meat Hutong before he had a fortune?

Admiral    did not perform eye surgery on the child until she was 17 years old.

  Cao Xi is good looking, standing with Wan Ning is like a "golden boy and girl", but it is too early for him to think that his position as a prospective fiancé is stable.

  The lively life belongs to young people. Although they are not monks, the residence of the concubines is often the ancient Buddha.

  Occasionally they would go climbing, and the young guards would accompany them. These old ladies liked them.

  In addition to drinking heavily, they also skipped work. Twenty people guarded the door, and only less than half of them actually arrived at the post.

It was once said that the husband of Concubine Dong E was Bomu Boguer, Prince of Xiang, the younger brother of Emperor Shunzhi and the eleventh son of Huang Taiji. Not the type that Shunzhi likes, and he doesn't side with Fujin either.

Dural Bomuboguoer happened to be the Ewenki ethnic group in the late Ming Dynasty, the originator of the former Alabian clan, and a colonel of the Sauron Department, so people believe that another legend recorded in the palace and Tang Ruowang is that Concubine Dong E is a Fu Jin, a Manchu soldier.

   If you want to judge, you must say who is at fault, that is Emperor Shunzhi, but who dares to accuse him of not?

After Emperor Qianlong died, for some reason, her funeral standards were not enough. A scholar wrote a letter and asked Qianlong to commit an edict. Qianlong would definitely not write it, nor would Shunzhi. Instead, he asked the great scholar to write the sacrificial text , wrote several times before it was accepted.

   After the raging flames burned out, only dust was left, and Shunzhi collected the ashes for Concubine Dong E, and everything behaved like a widower.

   He has many concubines, and he will continue to add them in the future. There will even be courtiers to send beautiful women, but he no longer has that kind of mood.

   He has already taken his dharma name and is called Xingchi, which he chose by himself. If Yulin hadn't committed murder for this matter, he would not have agreed to go back to be emperor.

  What Amitabha Buddha, put down the butcher knife, Xingchi has returned to the world from the empty door in order to stop the killing, and returned to Fulin.

   He said to Yulin that Sakyamuni abandoned the luxurious life of a prince, became a monk at the age of twenty-nine, and after six years of asceticism failed to attain the right fruit, and finally attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree and became a Buddha.

   But did he ever think that if Xi Sen was spared, what about the thirty lives buried with Concubine Dong E?

  Why are so many people buried with him for his love?

There is an ancient Greek legend, Hera, Athena, and Venus asked a Trojan prince to judge who should get the golden apple. At that time, the prince thought that ruling a rich country would get it after he succeeded to the throne, but it was love. Hard to get, so he gave the apple to Venus.

   Soon he got the Spartan queen Helen, and then Agamemnon started the Trojan War under the pretext of taking back Helen.

   Even if Wu Dalang dies, his younger brother will seek justice for him.

   At that time, when the country was not stable, he did such absurd things. Fulin was indeed Fulin.
