Chapter 15: The Tong Affair
In fact, what Yun Yao saw in the palace was the future Empress Tong Jiashi of Xiaoyiren, and the position of her draft at this time should still be the Han Army Flag, so how did she run to the yellow flag? At this time, she should be in the Blue Banner and the Han Army Banner.
Yun Yao had never known much about these things, so she asked Wu Lu. Wu Lu wondered, "Tong Jia's family with a yellow flag?" Isn't there no one in your third aunt's family to run for election? ”
When Yun Yao heard this, she thought that her third aunt was also surnamed Tong Jia, but it had nothing to do with the emperor's mother's family. However, although the third aunt is from the Tong Jia family, she is a side branch, and as I said earlier, the Tong Jia family is extremely noble, and even Nurhachi has been the son-in-law of the Tong Jia family. After Kangxi ascended the throne before, the two brothers Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei jumped up and down to connect with Tong Jia's family, looking like a nouveau riche, and finding a good-looking ancestor for himself after becoming rich. In terms of the pride of the Tong Jia family, they really don't look down on such behavior. Therefore, even under Kangxi's hint, he did not give in, the current Kangxi is not the Kangxi of a few decades, and no one dares to disobey him in a few decades of Kangxi, and now that he is in charge of the government, even if the ministers of the court and the central government respect him, they will not let him do whatever he wants.
Yun Yao knew that Ama had misunderstood, so he said, "It's the Holy Mother Clan." ”
Wu Lu understood when he heard it, and said, "Before the death of the first emperor, he was now the emperor, and the Tong family was too undignified in the Zhenglan Banner, as the emperor's mother, at least in the three banners, so he carried the Tong family into the yellow flag, but everyone knows that the first emperor did not force the Tong family to be carried into the Manchurian flag, so he is still in the Han Army Banner." ”
Wu Lu looked at his daughter's sudden realization and continued: "So they are still called the Tong family, not Tong Jia. ”
Yun Yao listened to it and understood why she saw that person today.
However, Yun Yao learned that the Tong family was actually carried into the yellow flag by Shunzhi, could it be that Shunzhi was also reborn? Shunzhi, this made Yun Yao very frightened, if it was a reborn woman crossing a woman or something, Yun Yao could still hold it, but when a man crossed or was reborn, their ambition has always been to make contributions, and the change in the history of the Qing Dynasty would be too great, but after thinking about it, Yun Yao was not too worried, after all, Shunzhi was dead, but Shunzhi should not leave anyone to target her.
Wu Lu looked at his daughter's face on the side and didn't look very good, he only thought that his daughter was afraid of the emperor's cousin when she entered the palace, he only comforted Yun Yao: "That Tong's daughter has been put off the brand, and she won't enter the palace, Yao'er don't worry." Wu Lu only thought that Yun Yao was afraid of the relationship between the Tong family and Kangxi, but in his opinion, this Tong family did not enter the palace this time, and by the next time a Tong woman entered the palace, Yun Yao would have already gained a firm foothold in the palace.
Yun Yao knew that Wu Lu was right, but the Tong family was too strange, after all, there was a concubine Dong E in front of her who entered the palace over age without going through the draft, but she didn't expect the Tong family to ignore the taboo of the Empress Dowager and enter the palace at the age of eighteen next time.
It's just that Yun Yao's secret in the deep palace in her last life, when Empress Xiao Yiren entered the palace, she was eighteen years old, but this time the draft was brushed down, in short, she was put off the brand.
The Tong family was optimistic about a family after this draft, and the family affair had been decided, but the Tong family didn't seem to look down on that family, especially compared to Kangxi's conditions, so Tong Jia's envoy had contact with Kangxi when Kangxi visited Tong Guowei, and for the innocence of Tong Jia's family, Kangxi had to include Tong Jia's in the harem in 13 years. It's just that this matter is quite secretive, and few people know about it, so it seems that this draft is extremely secretive.
Yun Yao found that most of the show girls who successfully passed the re-election this year had a very low status, perhaps because the queen did not dare to choose high-ranking ladies to enter the palace in order to consolidate her position. Therefore, during the draft, a large number of noble women's brands were put aside, and Queen Hesheri may also offend many big families because of this, this time it was the emperor who greeted the queen in advance, if not, I am afraid that Yun Yao would not be able to pass the re-election.
At this time, Yun Yao's name had already reached the queen's eyes, and Queen Hesheri lost her temper in Kunning Palace and knocked over the teacup.
"What's going on with this Niu Hulu clan, why is it favored by the emperor, isn't he a fox?" The queen looked at the list of those who passed the re-election, and was extremely angry, Yun Yao was actually the one with the highest status among the girls who passed the show this time. Queen Hesheri was strictly guarded in the draft, but she didn't expect this show girl to be a fish that slipped through the net and caught up with the emperor.
Mama Li on the side unhurriedly served a new cup of tea to the queen, which was extremely conspicuous among the frightened palace maids and eunuchs in the room. Mama Li is the grandmother brought by the queen from the Hesheri mansion, and the queen usually trusts her the most, so as soon as she speaks, the queen calms down.
Mama Li, who was next to her, saw that her master had calmed down, and asked the palace maid and eunuch in the house to clean up and go out, and persuaded, "That Niu Colu's uncle is Ma Jia. Tuhai, it may be that the emperor wants to show favor to him. ”
"I'm afraid that Niu Hulu's status is not low and he can't be treated as an ordinary person, after all, although Tuhai is from a humble background, he is not an ordinary person when he comes to this position now, and now Tuhai's status is much higher than that of the second master." The second master in Mama Li's mouth is Suo Etu, at this time Sony has passed away, and it is Suo Etu who is in charge.
"But isn't that Tuhai always untouched the emperor's harem? The previous concubine Ma Jia gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, didn't she get his support? Now it's just a niece, how can you support it again? The queen wondered.
Mama Li next to her said: "Tuhai has never had a close relationship with the clan, and this Niu Hulu clan's Eniang is Tuhai's sister." , Ma Jia's family almost entered Shunzhi's harem back then, and Tu Hai felt sorry for his sister and did not send her into the palace, so it can be seen that Master Tu is extremely attentive to his sister, and this Niu Hulu clan must be a strong rival after entering the palace."
But the emperor has already said hello, I'm afraid the queen can't go against the emperor's opinion, but the queen thought about it and said to Mama Li: "Leak this news to Concubine Niu Hulu, I think she won't hold back." "After all, a Niu Hulu clan plus Ma Jia. The weight of Tuhai is no worse than that of Concubine Niu Hulu, not to mention that Concubine Niu Hulu has not given birth yet, if Niu Hulu enters the palace and gives birth to a prince, maybe who does the Niu Hulu family support?
When Mama Li heard this, she was a little worried, "The Holy One won't blame you." After all, if the matter that the emperor ordered the queen was leaked, I am afraid that the queen will be punished for the crime of lax discipline.
Empress Hesheri waved her hand, "What does that have to do with me, not to mention that Maybe, Concubine Niu Hulu has already gotten the news, after all, she is also quite powerful, and the emperor is not unclear." ”
The queen's expression was a little mocking, and Mama Li didn't know what to say, but now that the master has a sister-in-law by her side, she thinks that the emperor will not lose the face of the master.
