Chapter 314: Shunzhi Empress Xiaohui Qiqige 47
After the grand New Year’s Day celebration, various banquets were held in the palace from the first day to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, including grand imperial banquets as well as casual and lively family banquets.
Before the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, Nurhaci gave a banquet in the Octagonal Hall of the Imperial Palace in Dongjing City, Liaoyang. The banquet was held at noon and ended around four o'clock in the afternoon.
After Huang Taiji moved the capital to Shenyang, the banquet etiquette system was established along with other rules and regulations, and the New Year's Day banquet was held in the Da Zheng Hall.
After entering the Pass, the Shunzhi Dynasty stipulated that the New Year's Day celebration and banquet ceremony would be held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Xue Li was dragged up by Tus early in the morning and started to dress up.
During the meal, the concubines came to pay their respects.
Xue Li was a little confused while eating the steamed buns. Could it be that she ate more because she was pregnant?
I looked at the belly carefully and found that there was no baby.
Then I vaguely heard the concubines chattering about what happened yesterday.
Yes, the ones leading the way are the Mongolian concubines.
After all, it's okay that they can't compete with Han women for favor, but how can any random person, including cats and dogs, snatch a bite of the food?
One by one, they started to talk like loud speakers.
The Han women remained silent, but their eyes were sparkling.
After all, it's rare to have such gossip!
The old lady frowned and gave Xueli some advice.
"My queen, is this emperor's excitement worth watching?"
"Sure, you've already done it, so why are you afraid of what people say?!" Xue Li was not affected at all.
"My Queen, the Emperor must have hated you yesterday!" The old nanny almost fainted. Why didn't she listen? !
"He hates me? It's not like I hooked up with someone else's wife. I still hate him for leaving me alone in an empty room during the New Year!"
Xue Li said it with confidence.
The old nanny looked at her with a complicated expression.
Finally, he went out trembling.
The old lady found out, but she didn't try to persuade the queen, and the queen wouldn't say anything that shouldn't be said.
How come he becomes more outspoken the more he persuades me? !
The old lady retreated reluctantly.
After finishing her meal, Xue Li helped Tus out.
The girls paid great respects to Xueli. After Xueli asked them to get up, she was about to listen to some gossip with great interest.
As a result, each of them looked like a saw-mouthed gourd.
"What were you talking about just now?" Xue Li kindly reminded.
“No, no…” Everyone was very well behaved at this moment and sat properly.
Xue Li felt a little bored after watching for a long time, so she simply took them to pay their respects to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother was a little depressed.
Maybe we arrived too early, the Queen Mother was having dinner.
Xueli readily sat down and ate with her.
The Queen Mother paused and said nothing.
After dinner, he expressed concern for the princes and princesses in the palace, then left Xue Li behind and asked everyone else to leave.
"By the way, from now on, all the people in the palace will copy scriptures and pray for a good year for our great Qingxin, peace and prosperity for the country and the people!"
The Queen Mother spoke solemnly.
Everyone responded carefully.
The faces of several concubines turned bitter in an instant.
Xue Li thought that the Queen Mother knew that everyone was discussing gossip about the Emperor.
After everyone left, the Queen Mother's expression suddenly changed.
"Your Majesty!"
Xueli just stood up and knelt down again.
"Do you know your mistake?" The Queen Mother's voice was solemn and murderous.
"I don't know!" Xue Li felt that it was a bad idea and the Queen Mother would probably faint from anger.
"You, you, the joke of the royal family should be seen by those slave dogs?! You can't even do this?"
The Queen Mother got angry when she saw Xueli like this.
She originally thought that her Qi-cultivation skills were good enough, but she would easily lose control every time she met Xue Li.
"But, it wasn't me who dragged that woman to have sex with me!" Xueli pouted and said aggrievedly, "I wanted to give birth to a prince this year!"
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment and tried to remain calm.
Is this what she is talking about?
She asked her to cover up for the emperor!
But his brain is like a wooden fish.
Xue Li still looked unconvinced.
It was not like she didn't know what the Queen Mother meant. She knew it was because her son made a mistake and she was putting the blame on others.
What a coincidence, she is that someone else.
After finally tricking the emperor, she should cover it up for him? !
Dreaming big?!
By the way, she remembered that she had written about some things about Shunzhi and Dong E before.
Well, that’s just in time, the original book is still there and she can still make some money.
Thinking of this, Xue Li became even happier.
The Empress Dowager asked her to copy scriptures for her and Xueli obediently agreed.
On her way back to the palace, Xue Li saw Bo Wengkuo waiting with the little girl.
I felt relieved to see that Xue Li looked normal.
"Egeqi, did the Queen Mother make things difficult for you?!" the little girl ran up to him in a hurry and asked.
"No, the Queen Mother misunderstood that I was pulling that——"
"Empress!" Tus's face changed and his voice became slightly higher.
Seeing that her eyes were about to cramp from blinking, Xue Li looked at the old lady with a stern face on the other side.
Well, the Queen Mother said that she was the one who supervised her copying the scriptures.
The old lady had a serious expression on her face, showing a look of deep bitterness and hatred.
Bo Wengkuo also saw the unfamiliar nanny.
I couldn't help but look back and forth: "What is this?"
"My lady, I am Aunt Asa, sent by the Empress Dowager to supervise the Empress in copying the sutras."
Aunt Asa bowed to Bo Wengkuo.
"Hey, why is that? Everyone is copying the sutras, why is the Queen Mother only staring at Egeqi?"
Bo Wengkuo's cheeks were puffy and he looked a little unhappy. Who likes to copy scriptures?
This is clearly targeted!
"You don't know this, right?! The emperor has a new favorite, and the empress dowager told me to stay out of the way and not disturb the emperor and that concubine!" Xueli looked like I was so sensible, and added, "Maybe it's because I disturbed the emperor's good thing yesterday! Oh..."
Xue Li spoke loudly, and except for Aunt Asa who stood there in amazement, everyone else knelt on the ground in fear.
"Which concubine? Everyone says she is a minister's family member!?"
Bo Wengkuo was waiting here just to find out the follow-up to last night's gossip.
She was so curious that she couldn't sleep all night.
"that is--"
"Your Majesty, Young Lady, it's so cold outside, be careful not to catch a cold, it's time to go back to the palace!" Aunt Asa had a bad feeling at this moment.
She knew that the Queen Consort was naive and that the Queen Mother did not take her seriously.
But this was simply too much. She didn't even understand why the Queen Mother punished her.
You can understand it, but why is the direction so twisted?!
Aunt Asa interrupted hurriedly. After all, some words can never be taken back once they are spoken.
When the time comes, she, even her old bones, will have to suffer the punishment.
Xue Li pulled Bo Wengkuo onto the phoenix chariot.
Aunt Asa moved her lips but said nothing.
"The daughter of the Dong E family, her husband is a general." Xue Li pretended to lower her voice and chat with Bo Weng Kuo.
But that sound was heard by all the servants present.
Everyone looked normal, but their ears all stood up at the same time.
"Wow! She is really a minister's family member, so she must be very beautiful?!" Bo Wengkuo couldn't help but exclaimed, looking at Xue Li with shining eyes.
