Shanghai, Qingya Street, Qingya Garden.

This "Qingya Garden" is the original Zhejiang Governor's Yamen.

After Guan Zhuofan handed over the envoy of the governor of Zhejiang, he was coy, saying that he would move out of the yamen of Zhejiang Fu and make room for Zhao Jingxian, who was acting in charge of Zhejiang. Zhao Jingxian refused "righteously and strictly". Zhefu Yamen is looking for a new site, and the old site has become Guan Zhuofan's mansion in Shanghai.

The hostess of the mansion is naturally Hu Qingqing. Of course, there was another Yang Wan'er later.

After the plaque of "Zhejiang Governor's Department" was removed, no new plaque was hung up. The gate of the old site of the Yamen in Zhejiang is three bays, divided into the main gate and the left and right side doors, the hostess is only on the right side of the door, sticking a red paper, and the word "Guan Yu" is written on it, indicating who is the head of the family.

However, in the past, this was done to "keep a low profile"; Now, Guan Zhuofan has been promoted to the king of Xuanjun, and this house has been specially given to him, which can be regarded as "crossing the bright road", and playing "low-key", there is no need. Moreover, the identity of Guan Zhuo Fanjin, the mistress of the house, will also change, the word "Guan Yu" does not conform to the court system, this mansion needs to have an official name.

The house is in Qingya Street, so it is logical to call it "Qingya Garden".

So, the day before Guan Zhuofan and the "American delegation to China" arrived in Shanghai, a piece of "Qingyayuan" with black letters on a white background was hung on the original position of the plaque of the "Zhejiang Governor's Department."

In the Qingya Garden at the moment, everyone was happy, laughing and laughing, one after another, Hu Qingqing and Yang Wan'er, the two hostesses, couldn't help but shed tears of joy.

Guan Zhuofan looked at his son and daughter, from beginning to end. Hehe laughed all the time. I didn't close my mouth. Look. King Xuanjun's appearance is really a bit silly.

Fortunately, it didn't get to the point of gaffe.

However, this is because of the presence of the messenger who is responsible for transmitting the decree, and the decree will be issued and received in a while, and Guan Zhuofan must hold his strength and not "lose his manners".

Otherwise, hehe. It's hard to say.

The children have all been named. Yang Wan'er's son was named "Tiangao", and Hu Qingqing's daughter was named "Xiaoxiao" -- the name of the overlapping characters meant to "pay tribute" to her mother.

In the United States, Mia's son was named "Tiansheng", and Jacqueline's daughter was born with the single name "Xin".

The names of the four children all have one word from "day", and Guan Zhuofan decided to do so in the future - all the eggs laid by themselves will be named from "day".

As for the word "heaven" - according to the genealogy. Guan Zhuofan is a generation of "Zhuo", but his son. It's not the word "day". However, Guan Zhuofan didn't regard the ancestor of "Guan Zhuofan" in this time and space as his ancestor at all, so he didn't plan to name his children according to this "genealogy" in this time and space.

The brothers and sisters are lined up, that is: the eldest Guan Xin, the second Guan Tiansheng, the third Guan Tiangao, and the fourth Guan Xiaoxiao.

Two sons and two daughters, one "good" and another "good", good, good!

There is nothing more proud of life than this!

Hahahaha!

After a long round of excitement, Zhu Xueqin took a look, lowered his voice, and said to Guan Zhuofan: "Lord Wang, let's issue an edict, right?" ”

Guan Zhuofan was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile on his face: "Okay, good!" Decree, decree! ”

Zhu Xueqin is the messenger in charge of issuing the decree. In "Gong System", he is the same character as Xu Gengshen and Fang Dingrui, who are on the edge of the "core", between the "core" and the "second line". After the Xinyou coup, Zhu Xueqin first released the Criminal Department, and then transferred to the Ministry of Rites, and has now become a waiter in the Ministry of Rites.

This will, bothering a ceremonial official, thousands of miles away from Beijing, arrived in Shanghai to pass it on, and the weight is extremely heavy.

On the incense case, Guan Zhuofan led Hu Qingqing, Yang Wan'er and other people in the house to kneel to listen to the holy decree.

It turned out that this was the will of canonizing Hu Qingqing and Yang Wan'er as "Xuanjun Wang's Side Fujin".

In the Qing system, although the "side Fujin" is one level lower than the "Changfujin", it is a "flat wife", not a concubine. Like "Chang Fu Jin", "Side Fu Jin" married to the prince, and there was also a formal wedding, but the ritual note was slightly reduced compared with "Chang Fu Jin". That is to say, Fang Fujin is "married", not "accepted"; Fang Fujin's mother's family is a serious relative of the prince's husband, and the two families are serious in-laws.

The most important thing is that Fang Fujin is also a jade, and he is also the daughter-in-law of the royal family. Therefore, Fang Fujin, like Chang Fujin, must be canonized by the emperor himself.

In the Qing Dynasty, it was very common for nobles and daughters of wealthy families to become the side blessings of the prince, which was a glory, not a shameful thing.

Except for the Fu Jin and the side Fu Jin, the prince's women are all concubines.

In a sense, the king of the Qing Dynasty did not implement the marriage system of "one wife and multiple concubines", but the marriage system of "multiple wives and multiple concubines".

Hu Qingqing and Yang Wan'er were both carried into the door of the Guan family as "concubines", and they were canonized as "side blessings", which was greatly promoted.

There are strict regulations on the number of side blessings. Before the Qianlong Dynasty, the prince could marry two side Fujin, and the county king could only marry one side Fujin. At the beginning of the Qianlong Dynasty, the regulations were slightly relaxed, and the prince could marry four side Fujin, and the prince and the prince could marry three side Fujin.

That is to say, canonizing Hu Qingqing and Yang Wan'er as the king of Xuanjun Side Fujin, Guan Zhuofan has already used up two-thirds of his quota.

When the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces and Guan Zhuofan talked about this, Ci'an smiled and said, "You only have one side blessing left to seal." In the future, if you want to canonize Mi and Ya, you have to choose one of the two. This side Fujin, who should you give it to, you go back and raise the pillow, think about it. ”

This is a half-truth. If the curtain is rich, the quota of the side blessing is increased by one or two, and it is not impossible to increase the "exceedance". Guan Zhuofan naturally understood the rules and regulations, he knew that the queen mother was making fun of himself, and his face was rarely red.

However, Mia and Jacqueline have not officially passed the door, and they can't talk about canonization for the time being, and Guan Zhuofan doesn't have to "raise the pillow and think about it" for the time being.

The edict of canonization Hu Qingqing and Yang Wan'er, in addition to the vulgar clichés such as "Shu is cautious and pure", "diligent and supple, gentle and gentle", "Ke Xian Nei Ze, Shu De Han Zhang", also emphasized two points:

First, they all have the experience of "sharing hardships and dangers" with King Xuanjun.

Second, they all had children for King Xuanjun's birth.

These two points are seriously regarded as their "meritorious work".

Therefore, the canonization of them as the king of Xuanjun side Fujin, which also contains "the meaning of the state to reward the merits".

In the edict, the rewards for their children were repeated: Guan Tiangao, the son of Yang's birth, was promoted from a cavalry lieutenant to a first-class light car lieutenant; The daughter of the Hu family, she was named "County Jun".

"First-class light car captain" is the third grade, that is, Guan Tiangao - this little guy who can't walk the road and hasn't yet climbed it understands is already a "big man".

There are eight levels of titles for clan women, with "Princess Gulun" being the first rank and "County Jun" being the sixth level.

The two Americans who were not mentioned in the edict had also been blessed before: Guan Tiansheng, the son of Mi's birth, was promoted from Yun Cavalry Captain to Cavalry Captain; The daughter of Ya's birth, she was named "Xiangjun".

"Riding Captain" is the fourth grade, and "Xiangjun" is the seventh level of the clan lady's title.

For this reason, Mia and Jacqueline also sent a telegram from the United States with a "thank you excerpt" - this kind of thing, the two of them naturally have no ability to write it, this is Guan Zhuofan asked someone to write it, send it to the United States, and they sent it back as it is.

The will was issued, and the crowns, uniforms, rewards and other things were also sent out, Guan Zhuofan, Hu Qingqing, and Yang Wan'er thanked them and stood up one by one. At this time, even if Zhu Xueqin's "decree" mission was completed, the identity of the "Qin Mission" was stopped. He immediately stepped forward and asked for a "general peace": "Say hello to the prince, and ask for peace to the two side blessings!" ”

Hu Qingqing and Yang Wan'er were all panicked, and instinctively returned the courtesy.

This gift is actually not enough, Zhu Xueqin had to ask for peace again.

The red tape was finally over, Guan Zhuofan said to Zhu Xueqin: "Uncle Xiu, it's a mess now, you go back to the mansion to settle down, I'll invite you to drink another day, let's chat calmly." ”

This was exactly what Zhu Xueqin wanted, and he left with a smile on his face.

"Lord Wang," Hu Qingqing said with a smile, "our own family has been lively, but it's not good to snub the guests—you should meet the guests first!" ”

Guan Zhuofan was slightly stunned: "Guest, who?" ”

Hu Qingqing's eyes fluttered: "You are really a noble person." Let's go, and when I get to the backyard, I remember. ”

Uh, I said Fang Fujin, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing?

As soon as he entered the weeping flower gate, Guan Zhuofan saw that in front of the flower stand, in the thick shade, a girl in a goose yellow shirt, in the sparse light and shadow, slim and elegant, with picturesque eyebrows.

He was in a trance for a while, and a strange feeling arose in his heart: This girl, I ...... I don't recognize it, but ...... I've seen it.

The girl gave a salute: "Say hello to the prince." ”

The voice is very soft, but mellow and soft, but the tone is a little weird.

"This is ......"

"Lord Wang, you really don't remember? She's the daughter of Mr. Kusumoto, Takato's sister! ”
