Chapter 243 Crown Princess II 2
Chapter 243 Crown Princess II 2
At the same time, the White Lotus Sect and the anti-Qing and pro-Ming movement mostly originated from Jiangnan.
In Jiangnan, a place where Manchus were excluded, Shi Wenbing was loved by the people, which was enough to prove his ability.
It was precisely because of this ability that Kangxi admired him so much.
In the 23rd year of Kangxi's reign (1684), Kangxi made his first southern tour.
Because of Shi Wenbing's usefulness, Kangxi noticed Shi Wenbing's daughter, who was his original self.
Kangxi valued family background and in-laws, but he valued women's moral character and talent even more.
After all, he valued the crown prince, so the way he chose a wife for the crown prince was naturally different from that for the other princes.
Kangxi was not only selecting a crown princess, but also selecting the future empress who would rule the country.
So origin is important, but temperament is even more important.
In history, Guwaljia clan is indeed worthy of the praise of a virtuous wife.
Although Guaerjia did not give birth to a son for Yinreng, she took good care of Yinreng's illegitimate sons and daughters and fulfilled her duties as a legitimate mother.
If Yinreng really ascended the throne, Guwalgiya might have become a wise empress.
Kangxi's choice of the Shi family was a powerful guarantee for the crown prince. With the Shi family, the crown prince's position would only become more and more stable. It was more of an alliance than a marriage.
"He is kind and filial, and has a gentle and tolerant nature."
This is Kangxi's evaluation of the original body.
Even though the Crown Prince was imprisoned and the Crown Princess died later, Kangxi was still very satisfied with her.
Therefore, after the first southern tour, Kangxi directly arranged a marriage for the prince with Yingheng of the Guwalgiya clan.
But, things always go wrong!
The 25th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign (1686) was another year for the selection of concubines.
Kangxi also appointed concubines Li Jia and Cheng Jia to the prince.
If the original body could have had a smooth wedding, everything might have been different.
Historically, in the same year, the original person's grandfather fell ill and passed away. The original person observed mourning for a year.
Kangxi felt sorry for the crown prince, so his concubine moved into Yuqing Palace first.
Just after the mourning period ended, the Empress Dowager, a strong woman who had served three dynasties, died in the 27th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign.
So they guarded it for another three years, and just when these three years were up, the original body's mother also passed away.
So they faced another three years of mourning.
As the years passed, the prince's initial anticipation and excitement about his wedding gradually faded.
All that's left is an indescribable sense of loss and exhaustion.
So when the actual wedding is approaching, the excitement and joy are gone, leaving only a very dull feeling.
During these seven years, the concubine who was originally scheduled to enter the Prince's Mansion in the same year as the Crown Princess entered the Yuqing Palace early.
During these seven years, her feelings for the prince grew stronger.
So the arrival of the Crown Princess at this time was like her inserting herself into the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Concubine, just like an outsider who broke in suddenly.
The relationship between the two of them was very awkward and unfamiliar.
As the prince is a child of destiny, he is not someone who is willing to compromise himself.
Faced with such an uncomfortable feeling, he turned and went to the concubine's courtyard.
This also made the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess even more strained.
Of course, for the sake of his legitimate son, he would still come, but he was completely lacking in consideration.
The original body acted like a mistress of a house, caring for her husband, treating concubines well, and sharing palace affairs...
But it’s true that she is unhappy and depressed!
Later, some of them were imprisoned and treated coldly along with the prince.
One memorial mentioned:
[Prince Heshuo Jian, Yaerjiang'a and others petitioned for a large block of ice
June 12, 1970
Prince Heshuo Jian and his subjects Yaerjiang'a and others respectfully report:
The officials and I have been guarding the place where we have been feeding food through the rotating cave. Now that it is hot, we can open the door as usual and bring in large blocks of ice. I respectfully report this. Please approve it.
Yaerjiang'a, the minister of Prince Heshuo Jian, Xibao, the minister of Prince Duolo Shuncheng, Zhunda, the minister of Duke Zhenguo, Ablan, the minister of Duke Fuguo, Dase, the minister of Deputy Governor-General, Wu Guang, the minister of Deputy Governor-General, Taibu, the minister of Deputy Governor-General, Boltun, and Shanshou, the minister of the royal family.
Zhu's comment: As requested. 】
There are various reports that Yinreng lived a good life in confinement after being deposed, and Kangxi was quite nice to him.
As the saying goes, a phoenix without feathers is no better than a chicken.
Just by reading this memorial, you can tell that Yinreng's life in captivity was actually very humiliating.
Any movement of any kind must be reported to him.
Whether talking to the guards or eating, one had to strike the cloud card from the inside first before they could communicate through a small brick hole. The door was not allowed to be opened without Kangxi's approval.
In special cases such as ice that cannot be transported through the brick hole, the door can only be opened after "asking for permission".
"Brick hole", just imagine it, it is probably similar to a "dog hole", and you can basically not see outside.
What a humiliation!
Thinking of this, Xue Li rubbed her forehead, turned over and fell asleep.
At this time, the original body was 13 years old.
After being arranged to marry by Emperor Kangxi, the maids and aunts in the palace watched her learn the rules every day.
Before going to bed, Xue Li was very thankful that she arrived in time!
It's neither too early nor too late. If it's too early, she will have to learn the rules. If it's too late, she will have to observe mourning and postpone the wedding.
The next day, Xueli woke up.
The maids came in one after another carrying clothes and toiletries.
Yuebai gently helped Xueli up, then began to wash her face, rinse her mouth, and put on makeup.
Maybe it’s because I didn’t sleep in the middle of the night and was thinking for a long time, so I feel a little sleepy when I get up early.
"How is grandpa?" Xue Li closed her eyes and dozed off for a while, letting the little girl dress her up.
The original body was still young, so all she needed to do was comb her hair and apply some floral water on her face.
"To answer Miss, the old man may not be able to sleep well at night, so the doctor is watching over him!"
Bibai replied.
Xue Li opened her eyes and nodded slightly.
The original appearance cannot be said to be stunning, but the temperament is very elegant.
It has the gentleness of a Han woman and the softness of a Jiangnan woman.
That shouldn’t be the case. The Aisin-Gioro family only loves little white flowers!
Isn't this enough of a little white flower?!
Yinreng is blind! ?
Xue Li thought angrily.
Fortunately, this is the original body's wish...
Otherwise, it would be more appropriate for her to marry him directly.
Xue Li thought about it, with regret in her eyes.
After packing up, I went to the main courtyard.
The original body's mother was waiting, so after dinner she went to see the original body's grandfather.
Xue Li knew the original mother's health condition at a glance.
Well, her diagnosis and treatment are not good enough, mainly from the soul scanning.
It is easy to tell whether the breathing is smooth or not, and whether the blood vessels are blocked or not.
Xue Li hugged Mrs. Shi's arm softly and acted coquettishly.
The original mother was the great-granddaughter of Daishan. To put it bluntly, the Guwaljia clan had been intermarrying with the royal family for generations.
"You're such a grown-up and you're still acting like a spoiled brat!"
Mrs. Shi smiled dotingly. Ever since the original owner was granted marriage and was taught etiquette by the maids, she hadn't acted like a spoiled child in front of her elders for a long time.
At this moment, she was very happy!
