Chapter 77 The Empress Dowager's Concession
The Empress Dowager of Ningshou Palace, Borjijit, sent someone to ask Emperor Kangxi to talk about the imperial edict left by the Empress Dowager and to ask for a favor from Emperor Kangxi.
Kangxi was very dissatisfied with this, but due to his filial piety, he had to smile in response, just to find out what the imperial edict left by the Empress Dowager and his Queen Mother was, and what the Empress Dowager Borzigit
What is the grace you seek?
The Queen Mother nodded and said with a smile: "The Emperor doesn't know something. The Yi family that the Queen Mother left behind was in the hands of Aunt Sumala, and the Ai family only found out about it recently. As for the grace that the Ai family asked for, the Emperor guessed
Not bad, it does have something to do with the Horqin Grassland..."
"Except for the Ai family, the only women in the palace who were born in Horqin are Xuan concubine. Xuan concubine is the sister of the Ai family. She has been in the palace for many years and has not been favored by the emperor. Now that she can sit on the concubine position, it is only in the emperor's eyes.
This is the reward for looking at the old face of the Ai family."
"This year there are several young and delicate little princesses in Horqin Grassland entering the palace. The Ai family wants to be shameless and ask the emperor to arrange one or two marriages for the little princesses in Horqin Grassland, which can also be regarded as easing the relationship between our royal family and Horqin Grassland.
, After all, in these years, only the princess and princess of our royal family have married Horqin, and there are only two people in the palace, Xuan Bin and the Ai family."
"The Ai family is the widow of the late emperor. In this deep palace, she lingers and lives, but she doesn't know when she will die. The emperor should not blame the Ai family. For the glory of the mother clan, she has the audacity to ask the emperor for a favor.
Grace, please give me a marriage or two for the little princesses of the Borzigit family..."
The Queen Mother, Borzigit, was talking nonchalantly, while the Emperor Kangxi was sitting aside with a gloomy face, listening attentively, thinking secretly in his heart.
Whether it was Queen Mother's decree to stay or Queen Mother's request for a favor from him on behalf of the Borzigit family, as a grandson and son, he could not refuse.
Rather than praying for the favor of the Borzigit family and asking him to arrange one or two marriages for the Borzigit clan, what he cared more about was the imperial edict that Huang Mama left behind.
, what exactly is the content inside?
Is it true that Queen Mother only knows about the imperial edict left by Queen Mother back then, or has she been pretending to be confused all along?
If you have known about it all along, but pretended to be confused while pretending to understand, then it can be seen that the Queen is a very thoughtful woman...
"Huang'e Niang, over the years, many princesses, princesses, and clan girls in our Qing Dynasty have married far away from the Horqin grassland just to appease the Horqin tribe. There are also two Borzigit women, Huang'e Niang and Xuan Bi, in the palace. This is the case.
After all, is it possible that the Horqin tribe is still dissatisfied and must have a beloved concubine before they can give up?" Emperor Kangxi didn't know why, but he was resistant to the woman from the Borzigit family in the Horqin grassland.
He has been on the throne for more than 30 years and has been in charge for more than 20 years. Among the women in the harem of Horqin Prairie, apart from the concubine Hui Borzijit in his early years, the only one left is the current concubine Xuan!
His resistance to the women of the Borzigit family in Horqin led him to prefer to marry a royal princess and princess to Mongolia in recent years, rather than having one or two Mongolian women from the Borzigit family in the Horqin Prairie in his palace.
Now the Queen Mother said that she wanted him to arrange one or two marriages for the little princesses of the Borzigit clan in Horqin, but she may not have wanted one or two more Borzigit clans to appear in the harem.
Concubine......
The anger on Emperor Kangxi's face was clearly seen in the eyes of the Queen Mother Borzigit, and her heart skipped a beat, secretly saying that the emperor actually disliked the women of the Borzigit family, Horqin, and did not want to accept them.
The women of the Borzigit clan are concubines and concubines!
From this point of view, the things mentioned in my brother’s letter may be very difficult to come by...
No matter what, the Horqin Borzigit clan was brave and good at fighting and had always been feared by successive Qing emperors. In recent years, the emperor did not want Horqin Borzigit women to enter the palace as concubines, so as to strengthen the Horqin Borzigit clan.
It is understandable that the family would rather appease the Borzijit family of the Horqin tribe by marrying a royal princess or clan daughter to their influence in the Qing Dynasty.
How can you allow others to snore next to your bed?
Sighing, the Queen Mother said softly: "The intention of the Aijia is not to make the emperor's daughter of Nakorqin Borjigit's concubine a concubine. If the emperor is not willing, he can put her into the palace through the draft.
A woman from the Horqin Borzigit clan can be married to her elder brother or a clan member, which can be regarded as easing the relationship between our Qing Dynasty and the Horqin Borzigit clan..."
The emperor's intention was very clear, he would not allow a woman from the Horqin Borzigit family to enter the palace as a concubine!
If that's the case, why not take a step back and betray the emperor, and only seek the blessings of her elder brother, or the blessings of her royal family members, for the younger generation of the Horqin Borzigit family?
Where is the position?
If the emperor is not even willing to marry his elder brother Fujin or his royal family member Fujin to marry their Horqin Borzigit daughter, then her brother will probably be dissatisfied and he will just vent his anger on her.
If they directly rebelled against the Qing Dynasty, what would they do as amiable women who had already married into the Aisin Gioro family?
"The emperor's mother-in-law means that I can marry the princesses of the Horqin Borzigit clan..." Emperor Kangxi squinted his eyes and thought secretly in his heart.
If it is only for the marriage of girls from the Borzigit family in the Horqin Prairie, then that is fine.
Among the royal family members, many of the right age need to be married. Among his sons, there are also a few who are of marriageable age, and one or two girls from the Horqin Borzigit clan are designated to be married to the family members.
Or the blessings of his sons, it doesn't hurt.
Queen Mother Borzigit nodded and said with a smile: "This is exactly what the Ai family means. I wonder if the emperor is willing to fulfill the Ai family's wish for the sake of the mother clan?"
Although the blessings of brothers and relatives are not as noble as those of a woman who is an emperor and a concubine, at least she has an explanation for her brother's side, so that they will not become the Horqin Borzigit family.
The women only came to the palace for a walk to see the splendor and wealth of the palace, and not one or two of them were left behind. They all returned to the Horqin Grassland and became the laughing stock of various Mongolian tribes.
The Borzigit clan of Horqin Grassland, during the reign of the late emperor, gave birth to a deposed queen, and then to give birth to a childless queen like her, it was already embarrassing enough!
Over the years, in the emperor's harem, apart from Concubine Hui, who passed away in the ninth year of the emperor's reign, the only women from the Borzigit family were the current concubines Xuan.
We can't let the Borzigit clan be like what it was in previous years...how many people come to participate in the draft every year, there will still be the same number when they go back!
"My son understands what the emperor means, and he will arrange for a girl from the Horqin Borzigit family as appropriate." Emperor Kangxi nodded and said with a smile.
