Chapter 9 - Pleasing the Queen Mother

After the "milk foot" was full, Hongyi closed his eyes with interest and began to further straighten out his thoughts. It seems that this kind of micro-probability event has unfortunately befallen me, which is so unfortunate! Although I just enjoyed human milk legally and reasonably, and drank it directly, at this moment, the longing for Xiao Ai once again overcame everything! If you can never see Xiao Ai who you love deeply, you can no longer feel her smile, her whispering, her accusations, and her coquettishness...... Everything she has can no longer be clasped with her fingers and embraced, and she can no longer be in love and reconciled...... What is the point of living for that lonely person! Thinking of this, Hongyi sobbed, but soon felt that his body was being shaken by a pair of gentle hands, and there was a whisper of concern in his ears: "The master is not afraid...... Sleep well...... Oooh......"

Alas! Although Hongyi was extremely sad, he finally calmed down slowly in this careful care. Some people like to travel through time, but in fact, they are dissatisfied with all kinds of powerlessness in real life. And I am feeling the beauty of life, and I am full of confidence to meet a more beautiful future with Xiao Ai! At this time, I crossed over! I don't know if that shijie's self will still be alive at this moment, or will he have passed away quietly in his sleep? As soon as he thought of this, Hongyi's heart was like a knife, and he crossed by himself, which brought many people grief! Xiao Ai, Mom and Dad, I don't know what you will be like now? I wonder if there is a turning back point for crossing? Even if he becomes an emperor in the future, he can't exchange it for family affection......

But what can be done, as a baby, it is impossible to actively create a micro-probability time for yourself if you want to hang a beam into the river, crash and jump off a building-you can't move at all! So far, you can only get by! Xiao Ai! Mom and Dad! Be ye strong! Be strong! I'm sorry for you...... Hongyi cried loudly again, provoking Sun's busy to appease.

For a long time, Hongyi, who had vented his emotions, slowly calmed down, closed his eyes and began to think about the most important question at the moment: what to do with himself! If history is not changed, he will become the Kangxi Emperor in less than seven years[1], although there are still a lot of things such as Aobai, the three feudatories, Taiwan, Caoyun, Huang Pan and so on, but Mr. Februaryhe has helped himself think of countermeasures, and now it seems that at least life is safe, and he will be rich and rich! As a kind of non-greeting, undisciplined crossing behavior, God, you still have a bit of public morality! Then you can only be a baby with peace of mind, and the long sixty-nine years of life have just begun......

When Hongyi's mind was full of thoughts, he heard a shrill voice outside shouting, I couldn't understand it, Manchu. He didn't bother to care, he still closed his eyes and thought about it, immersed in self-pity, and he didn't even bother to pay attention to the fact that he was picked up in a hurry and walked out of the door one by one. I don't know how long it took, until he felt that he had lowered the horizontal height with Sun, and moved the plane coordinates from Sun's arms, that he opened his eyes leisurely:

A slightly powdered, well-maintained face was in front of him, and a pair of bright, kind and kind eyes were looking at him. Holding herself at the moment is a middle-aged woman about forty years old. Seeing that he opened his eyes, he immediately said something excitedly, and immediately another woman of a similar age also squeezed her face into her sight.

Hongyi carefully looked at these two people, one was kind and kind, and the other was pleasant; One is well-dressed, the other is not powdered; One of the heads "two heads[2]" wore peony flowers, and the other also combed the two buns meticulously but without decoration[3]; One was full of joy and held himself wrapped in swaddling clothes, and the other hurriedly stretched out his fingers to gently play with his face...... Although there are high and low differences, they seem to be sisterly in general, and they follow each other step by step and complement each other, and they all love themselves. Could these two be ...... Hurry up and give a super cute smile first!

In fact, Hongyi guessed well, and the first was the "Queen Mother" of the Qing Dynasty, the Empress Dowager of Zhaosheng Cishou Gong Jian An Yi Zhangqing, and the biological mother of Emperor Shunzhi, Borzigit. Her name is Bumu Butai, nicknamed "Da Yuer [4]", the second daughter of Beile Zhaisang of the Horqin Department of Mongolia, and was added several times by Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong after her death, and finally her nickname was: "Xiaozhuang Ren Xuan Chengxian Gongyi Zhide Chun Hui Yi Tianqi Shengwen Empress", later referred to as "Xiaozhuang Empress Dowager". The other is her personal maid Su Mala, originally called Su Mo'er in Mongolian, which means a long pocket made of wool, and after entering the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed Su Mala, which means "half a big pocket", because she has lived with the queen mother for a long time, and later raised Kangxi's twelve elder brother Yinqi in the Kangxi Dynasty, and finally half a year after his death, Yinqi mentioned Su Mala in a memoir, and only called it "my Aza Gu" for the first time. The so-called "Azha" is the meaning of "Eniang" in Manchu, and "Gu" is the same as Chinese, which means aunt, until Yongzheng ascended the throne, and it was customary to call Su Mala "Su Mala Gu".

It turned out that Tong Jia's family at this time was only a concubine, and her status was not high, although she had just given birth to a prince, she could not receive the preferential treatment of the queen mother who came to visit her in person. But for her grandson, the queen mother is a little impatient, after all, the continuation of the imperial lineage is related to the long-term of the country. When she learned that she had added another grandson, the queen mother, who had been paying close attention to the news of Jingren Palace, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered someone to quickly go and bring the little emperor grandson to take a look at herself.

"Su Ma Ao Heidu (Su Ma sister), look at this fat boy, he will smile at the mourning family when he was born today, he must be a smart brother, it is really happy to look at!" As soon as the Queen Mother saw that she had picked up the sleeping baby, he opened his eyes and looked at him, and smiled shallowly (as a newborn, it is really difficult to laugh!). I was really overjoyed, and I couldn't help but say a Mongolian word to Su Ma.

Hongyi was relieved to see the smile in response, even though he couldn't understand what she said.

"The Queen Mother [5], the slave and maid look at the little prince with the calm and resoluteness of our grassland children, and when he grows up in the future, he must be a brave and breezy Baris (Mongolian: tiger)." Su Mala also found that the baby in the swaddling clothes seemed to be staring at herself, she had never been a mother, and her affection was naturally revealed, and the beautiful words blurted out like a Mongolian long tune.

"Tiger? The tiger is not enough, I hope that he can work with the big brother [6] to bring more little brothers, and they will all become the dragons of my Qing Dynasty in the future! Bless me the dragon of Yongchang in the Qing Dynasty! It's better to be a dragon, a dragon, a dragon, or a dragon, whether it's a five-clawed, four-clawed, or three-clawed,[7] it's all my dragon grandson of the Qing Dynasty! Isn't it, boy? The Queen Mother couldn't help but gently pinch Hongyi's fat face, but her words were changed to Manchu.

"The master is right, the slave is still not as long-term as the master!" Su Mala also hurriedly changed back to Manchu, took a half step back, and bowed.

"Su Ma, how many times has the old sister told you, don't be a slave at home, let people listen to the birth of a part, come here, our sisters will have a good time today, what did the Han man say, it is called ...... It's called ......" Seeing Su Mala withdraw his hand in interest, leaving his grandson's entire chubby little face for herself, the Queen Mother was very satisfied.

"Empress Dowager Qi, are you talking about 'teasing your grandson'?" A eunuch next to him asked in Chinese.

"Teasing Sun?" Hongyi, who was being played with a little impatiently, heard a Chinese idiom again, and instantly came to his senses! Hurriedly turned his head to look for it.

"Yes, yes, with a tease of Sun, haha...... Ouch, look, my grandson's ears are so pointy, and you're looking at you! "The Queen Mother was very impressed by the baby's every move.

"Slave Xie Xiaoye [8] carry love!" The eunuch called "Yougui" was busy kneeling down and worshipping Hongyi! The antics amused Hongyi and couldn't help but shout: "Look at your minion look! haha! "No wonder, this is the first eunuch to kneel since Hongyi crossed into the Qing Dynasty, and he completely forgot that he still "can't" speak!

"Queen Mother, look, the master has spoken!" Su Mala heard Hongyi's muttering a few times, and his heart was almost drunk.

"Not really! You're expensive, my imperial grandson values you! The Queen Mother hugged Hongyi and put it close to her mouth, and said to Yougui who was kneeling.

"How can a slave be able to make the master fall in love! The slave must do his best to serve the queen mother and the master! "Yougui continues to peck at the rice.

"Alright, alright, get up and speak. I think that my imperial grandson is so smart and clever now, and he will definitely do a great job like his Emperor Ama and Huang Ma Fa[9] in the future! The Empress Dowager turned her head and asked Su Mala: "Su Ma, you see that this kid is quite interested in Chinese, this Manchu and Han integration is also the foundation of our Qing Dynasty, and the prince can speak some Chinese is also haode." But I can't forget that my Qing Dynasty is a Manchurian family, this country, but my Eight Banners athletes and Mongolian men beat it down little by little! I think, in the future, you have to teach him more to talk and talk more, and you can't let him forget his roots! ”

"Slave and maid command!" Su Mala bowed lightly and agreed.

"Yougui, have you arranged the nipples [10] and nannies to serve the little brother?" The Queen Mother turned to Yougui.

"If you go back to the Queen Mother, it has been arranged. The nipple is the white flag coating, and last year, Long Live Lord's new Inner Thirteen Yamen Salary Shilang Cao Eryu's inner Sun family, she is now waiting outside the door. ”

"Humph! Thirteen Yamen...... The mourning family doesn't understand, the twenty-four yamen of the dead Ming Dynasty is so good? The emperor has to imitate his old system? It must be the eunuch next to him who has bad intentions! The queen mother was a little indignant, and when she saw all the "eunuchs" in the house, she knelt down together in fear, and then said leisurely: "Get up, you are loyal to your master, and you don't have the courage to do so!" The Queen Mother was retracted by the writhing behavior of the baby Hongyi in her arms, and refocused on her newborn grandson.

"Oh, you just said that the nipple is a white flag coating? No wonder, it's the Eight Banners of the Han Army! This grandson of the mourning family is interested in your Chinese, and he dares to find a place to eat! Ah, isn't it? hahahaha...... "Everyone in the room laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became much lighter. After a while, the Queen Mother spoke:

"Su Ma, you go and reward this Sun family, and tell her to serve her well, and there must be no difference! In addition, there is a noble, has the emperor [11] reported it over there, why haven't you seen him come over at this time? ”

Yougui bowed down and replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, the servant has already sent someone over to tell you, and the master [12] knows that the master is here now, and he should be rushing to Cining Palace!" ”

Since Hongyi heard the phrase "teasing Sun", he realized that as a newborn Kangxi, he must greatly arouse the interest of these two middle-aged women, otherwise if he messes up, his crossing will definitely be a tragedy. So, from time to time, he squeezed his eyes, grinned, and said a few beautiful muttering words, if he were not wrapped in swaddling clothes, he would definitely use his hands and feet at the same time, especially with those dark and translucent eyes, which made the room full of people laugh non-stop.

[1] In the official history, Xuan Ye ascended the throne at the age of eight, but in fact he was not yet seven years old.

[2] In the early Qing Dynasty, Manchu women had a common hairstyle, commonly known as "small two heads", and the specific shape can be Baidu.

[4] The nickname Da Yuer has been well-known through many Qing court dramas, in fact, according to the research of Mr. Meng Sen, a master of Qing history, the nickname Da Yuer is a product of novelists in the early years of the Republic of China, and there is no examination in the official history. This article appears only once to deepen the reader's impression and will be deprecated later.

[5] Here Su Mala is referred to as Bumu Butai as the empress dowager, which is actually a conventional name. In the early days of the Shunzhi Dynasty, there were two empress dowagers, namely the "Queen Mother" Zhezhe and the "Queen Mother" Bumu Butai, the former was the latter's aunt, and the latter was the former's niece. Zhezhe died on April 17 in the sixth year of Shunzhi (1649) at the age of 51. At that time, if the main palace of Huang Taiji, Fujin Borzigit, was still alive, the palace maids of the Forbidden City would not simply become the "Queen Mother", but would say "Our Lady of the Queen Mother". But since Zhezhe's death, there is only one queen mother in the Hou~ Palace, and there is no problem in short.

[6] Shunzhi's second son, Fuquan, was less than a year old at the time, and should not have been named.

[7] The orthodox name of the dragon is Canglong, which corresponds to the emperor. The five-clawed dragon is also available only to the Emperor.

[10] Nurse, nurse.

Ming Shenbang's "Wan Department Miscellaneous Notes: Milk Mouth": "A little north outside Dong'an Gate, there is a ceremonial room, which is a place to choose a milk mouth to wait for the inner court to summon it. ”

[11] In the Qing Dynasty, empresses, concubines, and Manchu and Han ministers all referred to the emperor as "emperor" in person or behind their backs, and only the empress dowager or imperial concubine called the emperor "emperor".

[12] Qing eunuchs referred to the emperor as their master.
