The screen turns

Back to the autumn and early autumn of the thirtieth year of Kangxi

Today is the day when Emperor Kangxi drafted himself and his adult sons and nephews. It turned out that tens of thousands of show girls had entered the palace, but today there are only more than 60 show girls who are qualified to be selected by the palace.

Manchu became a biological child very early. Emperor Kangxi became a father at the age of thirteen. Another woman gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, and she has been supporting her to this day. Kangxi is eight years old Chinese New Year's Eve today, and his eldest son is twenty-five years old. However, this is not the eldest son, nor is it the second son, the third son, in fact, the eldest son. This child's biological mother is not even a concubine, not even a noble, just a mere permanent. And this Changzai was not officially canonized, and did not receive the golden book and gold seal Jinbao that symbolized the permanence, because the queen Hesheri did not pay any attention to her, as if she were air.

This Chang Zai is actually a modern human soul passing through, and she has a woman Tao Fengxia who failed to be a fifteen-year-old show girl in the harem and then became an inferior palace maid. It turned out that Tao Fengxia entered the palace draft in the spring of fifteen, and became a palace maid after losing the election. The very strange thing is that after going through the ordeal and being a palace maid for half a year, Tao Fengxia was fifteen years old, and one morning in winter, she was favored by the emperor, and the emperor orally named her a permanent presence. But Tao Fengxia, who is always there, not only does not enjoy the glory and wealth, but also has no servants to serve, and actually bullied the queen ruthlessly, Tao Fengxia was originally serving the emperor seven days ago, and after waiting for seven days, it is time to turn from a palace maid to a concubine, although it is Xiao Chang, it is also a concubine. But the strange thing is that the queen can't wait to demote her to Xinzheku as a slave, which shows how angry the queen is, and how much the queen hates this bold Tao Fengxia. It can be seen that Tao Fengxia will never have a good time as a slave in Xinzheku in the future, because she actually offended the queen. And she has been a palace maid for twenty-five years. Twenty-five years later, to this day, her son is twenty-five years old, and her biological mother Tao Fengxia is still working hard in Xinzhiku, although she has climbed to the title of second-class Xinzhiku miscellaneous housekeeper, but it is still difficult to resist the lowly status.

No one in the palace can afford her, but a considerable number of people think that Tao Fengxia is not worthy, and a big rumor in the palace is that Tao Fengxia knew that today is much better than at the beginning. If there is no selfishness and ambition on the spot, he should not hook up with Emperor Kangxi to be favored, although he hit it with one blow, he was happy at one time, and gave birth to his eldest son ten months later, but Tao Fengxia is just a mere girl, she bought a show girl. In fact, her family is extremely poor, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren have been slaves and maids for big families, so much humiliation made Tao Fengxia save money to buy a show girl quota at the age of fifteen, spending one hundred and eighty-six taels of silver. Sure enough, Tao Fengxia hurriedly entered the palace draft, and sure enough, because her background was too low, although the first four levels were passed, and the last level was shown to the emperor in person, she was still defeated, and the twelve-year-old Emperor Kangxi couldn't look down on Tao Fengxia, so she was a cheap slave for more than two years after she was defeated, and if such a big humiliation was replaced by Miss Xiu of other people's families, I was afraid that I would not be able to live. Because the young lady is a pampered daughter who is spoiled by the family, where has she been humiliated? But Tao Fengxia, whose ancestors were slaves for three generations, actually worked as a slave for rich families before the draft. She began to work as a slave in the mansion of a rich man at the age of six, and it was not until the first month of her fifteenth year that she completely resigned as a slave and became a free man. And he saved a lot of silver, and then there was a follow-up story.

There are also rumors in the palace that say this: Tao Fengxia was instructed by a master to change her life, and after being comforted and encouraged, she entered the palace for the draft. Sure enough, from buying the show girl yellow booklet to sleeping all the way through the mountains and mountains, working hard to get to the capital day and night, this alone has endured all the hardships and tightened the hard work. But the good fortune is still there. Tao Fengxia waited for more than half a month and finally officially arrived at the day of the draft, she came to the palace gate early in the morning to line up, and then lined up at nine o'clock, and soon entered the palace first according to the identity of the first batch of show girls. Some people also said that at that time, they saw Tao Fengxia looking forward to brilliance, and her beauty was incomparable, so many palace maids, grandmothers, fathers-in-law, and guards saw the beauty of fifteen-year-old Tao Fengxia always felt that she was a nobleman, Tao Fengxia was full of joy, complacent, and carried away, sure enough, with her own conditions, her image and appearance were first-class, and she was also virtuous and virtuous in thought, plus she had been a slave for many years, and she had been practicing for many years to observe words and look at the two skills of patting horses, and sure enough, Tao Fengxia passed five levels all the way and cut six generals, and the power was too fierce, very mighty, majestic, She has successfully passed the first four levels, she is already quite famous, and it is said that she has been ranked in the top ten among the excellent and high-class show girls. It is natural to choose to keep a brand in such a good result.

But Tao Fengxia never expected that she would reach the fifth level, she started to wait in the morning, it turned out that she had stayed in the palace since she passed the third level, living in a wing of Changchun Garden. So she was in the palace, so she didn't dare to slack off at the fifth level, she got up before dawn to freshen up, and then came to the examination room outside the Taiji Hall early to wait for the fifth level draft. Originally, she was also a little stage frightened, very nervous, and couldn't help but be frightened and enthusiastic, but she was also very proud of herself. She still has a very strong inferiority complex. Because she used to be just a good and bad slave in a rich man's mansion, she couldn't climb up, but this time God helped her, she has been lucky for a long time, just the last step today, as long as she is lucky enough on the last day, she can change from a slave who waits for people to a golden Forbidden City hostess. She didn't think about being a concubine herself, at least being a nobleman was always enough. She herself thinks that being there is always her minimum and minimum requirement, and it is her bottom line. If the emperor disagrees, let her agree, she will never agree. But she knew that her family was only three generations of slaves, and the daughters of other local officials or officials in the capital might not be selected, let alone be a concubine. She is actually sensible, knowing that she may be arranged to be the last official woman, and if she is lucky, she will agree. Thinking of this, Tao Fengxia was trembling with anger, and she couldn't take care of the fear just now.

She thought to herself: "Instead of being slaughtered by others and bullied by Emperor Kangxi, who looks down on people with dog eyes, I only give her a promise official woman, because I was born only a pariax slave and maid, and the emperor will not make himself a nobleman, that's not good." Fortunately, the draft has not yet begun, and based on past experience, it will either start in the middle of the morning or two o'clock in the afternoon. ”
