On the second day of the eighth month of the fifteenth year of Qianlong, the emperor officially issued an edict, ordering the scholar Fu Heng to be the chief envoy, and the scholar Shi Yizhi to be the deputy envoy.

The text is solemn and magnificent:

I must rely on Kuncheng's Jianshun merit to prepare, external governance is always in the internal post, and the family and state are Sloane. However, the long-term void of Zhongxuan, the cause of Yi Hongyi. Imperial Concubine Nala, Xiuyu Famous Family, Xiang Zhong Shide. Early from the dive house, with a chapter and a fragrant type. Jin Xi was honored, and he was blessed and Ke Xian was inside. Today, I will read three years and expire, and I will follow the oracle of mercy in a courteous manner. Respecting the order of the Queen Mother, she made the Golden Book of Jinbao Lier the queen. The benevolence of the mantis and the wood will be blessed forever. Qin cocoon hall bow clothes of the moral teaching, pay homage to the former emblem. There is light in the manifestation. Hongxu is admired to the end.

In the early morning of the first day, the weather was not very hot, and the emperor held his hand and smiled: "I chose the second day of the eighth month, which was the day when you married into the hidden mansion. August, also with my Halloween Day, and the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion in the same month. I hope to see you in the morning and twilight, and be reunited every year. ”

Ruyi wore the queen's court clothes, was dressed properly, and went to Cining Palace to meet the queen mother before the ceremony. At that time, the Queen Mother had already changed into court clothes and wore a golden crown, and when she saw her coming, she just accepted the salute silently.

Ruyi bowed her head three times and said sincerely: "No matter whether the emperor wants her son to become the queen or not, but the son can have today, after all, thanks to the emperor's guidance and promotion." ”

The Queen Mother stroked the golden dragon makeup on her clothes, and her eyes were calm and peaceful: "Although you are not the favorite queen candidate of the mourning family, it is you after all, who can get to this position." ”

Ruyi bowed her head respectfully: "Thank you for the praise of the emperor." ”

The Queen Mother shook her head calmly: "It's not a compliment. It's because you have the blood of the Ulanala clan in your body, and the kind of blood in your bones is beyond anyone's reach. The Queen Mother sighed lightly, "It's the mourning family, and I didn't really win against your aunt back then." ”

Ruyi was slightly surprised, in her impression, the Queen Mother has always been very deep and calculating. And my aunt, who became the king and lost the king, has long become a cloud of smoke and has been forgotten by the world.

Ruyi was silent for a moment, and said: "Huang Eniang, there is a matter that has been unknown to the sons, please make it clear." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at her and said lightly: "Say it." ”

Ruyi looked directly at the Queen Mother, and there were too many puzzles and doubts in her eyes: "Back then, the aunt of the son was the middle palace, and she was the sister of Empress Xiaojingxian, and the relatives of the Holy Ancestor Empress Xiaogongren, why was she defeated under the Queen Mother, and finally died tragically in the cold palace?" ”

The Queen Mother smiled slightly, and there was an unfathomable chill in her eyes: "Today is your happy day, do you want to ask such unfortunate words?" ”

Ruyi's smile is quiet, like a mandarin duck tile that is still in the magnificent sun, but it makes people calm down: "If you ask about bad luck, I hope that I won't be bad luck in the future." But please let the emperor fulfill it. ”

The Queen Mother looked at the floating gold outside the hall, squinted her eyes slightly, as if she was indulging in the distant past, and said quietly: "Self-inflicted, you can't live." ”

Ruyi groaned slightly, and her snow-white teeth bit gently: "Who in the palace doesn't do evil, why can't Aunt Du live?" ”

The Queen Mother looked at Ruyi and looked at it carefully for a moment: "When you said this, you had the bearing of your aunt not to lose the world." It's a pity that ......" The Queen Mother shook her head and said slowly, "Your aunt just cares too much, cares too much about the heirs, cares too much about the queen, and cares more about the king's heart." In fact, the queen is a god who is enshrined, everything is a passing cloud, as long as she can not make mistakes and not be harmed by others, she will finally get a lifetime of glory and peace. ”

Ruyi hesitated for a moment: "Then the heir, the heir, and the king's heart, isn't it right to care?" Or, the emperor doesn't care? ”

The Queen Mother smiled calmly: "There are always people who don't care about it, and there are always people who care more." Those who care more about revealing what they care about is equivalent to telling others where their fatal injuries are, which always gives people a chance to take advantage of them and harm themselves. Moreover, the mourning family can say again that the mourning family has never won against your aunt. There is only one person who can win against your aunt, the queen of the year, and that is the first emperor, the venerable of all vehicles at that time. ”

Ruyi heard about the old things, raised her bright eyes and looked at the Queen Mother: "Yes." But in the past, the harem was chaotic, and my aunt's position was not stable. ”

The voice of the Queen Mother was calm in the old age, just like under the eaves after the cold rain in autumn, the accumulated water droplets fell heavily on the smooth stone steps one by one, causing a dull echo: "You are wrong. In all dynasties, even if there is the dictatorship of the favorite concubine and makes the queen's position unstable, it is just unstable. The only one who can shake the throne is the emperor. Emperor Cheng is also the emperor, and defeat is also the emperor. ”

Ruyi knew it in his heart, raised his eyes and smiled: "So the sons and daughters are only in the emperor, and they have nothing to do with others." As long as the sons and daughters are the emperor's wives. ”

The Queen Mother also smiled and sighed: "I can say this, so you can sit in the back seat." But you have to understand that you are not only the emperor's wife and ally, but also his courtiers and servants. Even if you're the Queen, it's the same. The Queen Mother looked at her for a moment, and suddenly smiled clearly, "From now on, you will be the queen above thousands of people, but the queen of the Wulanala clan of the Qing Dynasty rarely has a good death." ”

The Queen Mother's words seem to be a curse, but they are also facts. Taizu Nurhachi's eldest concubine Ulanala clan Abahai, after being martyred by Emperor Taizong Taiji, and because Shunzhi Ye disliked his son Dolgon, Abahai was expelled from Nurhachi's temple after his death, and chased all the honorific titles, and the end was extremely bleak. And his two aunts, how can they not be desolate, one by one died childless. What will happen to you when you come to your own future?

She didn't have time to think about it, and she didn't have time to think about it. The joyful music has sounded, waiting for her to become the mistress of this dynasty, and the man who dominates the world has become a figure standing side by side under the vast sky.

Ruyi kowtowed and left slowly. The moment she walked out of Cining Palace, she turned her head to look back, the sun was like gold, and the plaque of Cining Palace was like a brilliant gold dust. Maybe one day, like the Queen Mother, she will become the master of Cining Palace, and she will be the best destination for her as a queen for the rest of her life.

At the time of the canonization, the Qin Tianjian reported that the auspicious time had arrived, and the bell and drum sounded at the noon gate. The emperor descended to the queen of the Taihe Palace. Luan Yiwei praised the "whip", and the Dan Majesty Big Band also played the music of "Qingping Chapter". The leather whip fell on the white marble platform in the palace with a particularly crisp and powerful effect, as if the entire Forbidden City was filled with this shocking and dizzying huge echo.

Ruyi stood outside the Yimen of Yikun Palace, the weather was hot, and when she moved slightly, she was easy to sweat and wet her clothes. Rong Pei and Xinxin have been waiting by her side, carefully dressing her, removing sweat stains, and maintaining a decent appearance. In fact, compared to the dress of the imperial concubine, the queen's dress is much heavier, and when worn on the body, it is like a heavy gold shackle, trapping one. However, this shirt is the yearning of many women in the harem, once it is put on, it is Lingyun straight up, the top of ten thousand people. The bright and white sunlight made her slightly dizzy, and countless golden circles of light forced her eyes, illuminating her gorgeous and solemn clothes as if in the clouds, making people dare not force her eyes, and even the finely embroidered Feifeng on her body was eager to try, and the clouds were ready to fly.

finally came to the moment when she was side by side with her man, Ruyi suddenly thought of the person in the past. is also the queen, what is her aunt's mood at that moment? Whether it is like himself, with a trace of calm in the excitement and the joy of finally achieving his wish, he is full of emotion.

And the side of Yikun Palace is the Changchun Palace where Empress Xiaoxian lived in the past, compared with the lively and high-profile of Yikun Palace, the Changchun Palace used to be used by the emperor to mourn is particularly deserted and deserted. Perhaps, even Empress Xiaoxian never thought that the last person to enter the middle palace would be her, Wulanala Ruyi.

The sunlight is too bright and dazzling, so that Ruyi can see the main and deputy books in the slightly squinting sight, and the inner supervisor in turn holds the section, the book, and the treasure enter the palace from the middle gate, and put the festival in the middle case, and the book and treasure are placed in the east case. Then the female official of the ceremony led Ruyi to stand in the north of the worship seat, and sent it in a book, such as Yi Xing six su three kneeling and three bowing. At this point, the canonization of the queen was completed.

The next day, the emperor, accompanied by the prince and the minister of civil and military affairs, went to the palace of the empress dowager to pay homage. After the ceremony, the Imperial Palace. The kings, civil and military officials, each made a celebratory gift. And Ruyi also has to go to the Empress Dowager's palace to salute, and then go to the emperor to salute after the ceremony. After that, the concubine brought the concubines and princesses, Fujin and the internal and external women to the Yikun Palace to salute.

And on that day, Ruyi met Princess Hejing, who was watching the ceremony. After a few years, the princess became a bright and beautiful woman, the abundance of water and plants in Mongolia made her look plump and delicate, and the blowing of the wind and sand made her even more resolute. She looked at Ruyi with beautiful eyes, her gaze swept over her body without scruples, and finally said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that you would become the queen." Until the Emperor Ama ordered me to come back to watch the ceremony, I couldn't believe it. I always feel that whether it's a pure concubine or a concubine, it's not your turn. Her smile was a little strange, a little disdainful, "Why? Are you worthy? ”

Ruyi looked back at her gaze quietly: "Things in the world can only be done, and few things can't be imagined." What's more, whether they are worthy or not, today's palace and the princess have finally become a mother and daughter in name. ”

He Jing raised his head proudly: "My emperor's mother is the queen, I am the eldest princess, you are just the successor." The entrance to the folk steproom, seeing the tablet of the wife, has to perform the concubine ceremony, so, no matter what, you can't compare with my emperor's mother. ”

Ruyi smiled kindly, and quietly covered Rong Pei, who was so angry that her face turned blue, behind her: "Empress Xiaoxian takes the word 'Xian' as a sycophant, and this palace admits that she can't get a 'Xian' word as a sycophant anyway." Virtue can not be compared with Queen Xiaoxian, and the family background is difficult to match, and the palace can only make up for it a little if it sits on the throne for a longer time and fulfills the responsibilities of the queen. ”

He Jing suddenly changed color, but when she heard the continuous sound of congratulations around her, she didn't dare to have more right and wrong: "It's a pity...... My emperor's mother died early, and my younger brother was not blessed to stay in the world, so he was so depressed, so you were so broken and settled in the back position. She bit her lip heavily, gave her cold and vicious gaze, and suddenly sneered, "If you can enjoy this earth-pouring wealth, you must also be able to withstand the catastrophe in the future." I'll look at you, how long will you be proud? ”

Ruyi looked at her young face and looked carefully, she really looked like the Empress Xiaoxian back then. She sighed unconsciously, and said in a softened tone: "Princess, back then, Empress Xiaoxian insisted on marrying you to Mongolia, in order to keep your honor and avoid troubles in the palace. In this case, why don't you calm down and keep your marriage well. You know, now that you are the princess of Mongolia, your words and deeds are tied to the peace of Mongolia and the glory of the Fucha clan, remember, remember! ”

If Yi just said that, a female official urged her to go to the emperor's side, and only He Jing stood on the ground, stunned.

The sunlight was a very thin gold, and Ruyi seemed to have walked a long way and finally walked to the emperor's side. The Emperor looked at her, smiled, and stretched out his hand to her, leading her to his side.

Ruyi stood beside the emperor, only feeling that he was looking down on 10,000 people, looking at the cheers like a mountain, and the sound of congratulations was overwhelming. She has a vague illusion, as if floating in the vast clouds, although the person who has been with her for life is around, but it is like a cloud that is about to leave, so unreal.

However, in the end, it was he who brought himself here, and he didn't have to gather in the middle of thousands of people and look up. A tear flashed in the corner of Ruyi's eyes, and the emperor found out in time, gently held her hand, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

Ruyi bowed her head gently, raised her face slightly, felt the softness of the sun, and smiled shallowly.
