Chapter Seventy-Seven: Today Is a Good Day
The Queen Mother lived in Tianjin, in the Forbidden City, except for the Queen Mother, the rest of the people, etc., secretly increased their foreheads with their hands, from top to bottom, and privately said that this year, there are good days!
"Xibianer" is majestic, the royal majesty is extremely strict, and there are not a few eunuchs and palace maids who do big things because of small blame, and there is more than one case of making mistakes and being killed by the living rod. The people who served her, except for Yu'er, Li Lianying and a very few of the most cronies, the rest were all in front of her, and they didn't dare to take a sip, and their kind faces changed slightly, and Changchun Palace was trembling.
The majesty of the Queen Mother is naturally not limited to the Changchun Palace, the East Sixth Palace, the West Sixth Palace, the South Three, the North Five, the entire Forbidden City, all the deacons, etc., when they see her, they are like mice seeing cats, even the people of Zhongcui Palace are no exception, Xi'er, a first-class celebrity in front of the Queen Mother, is also cautious when talking to the Queen Mother.
Now it's good! "Xibianer" lived in Tianjin, and for a whole year, the affairs of the harem were presided over by one person from the "Dongbianer", and the Queen Mother and Empress Dowager were extremely generous, and it was rare to scold people.
In the Forbidden City, there is an inexplicable joy, and everyone meets and talks on weekdays, with a tacit smile on their faces.
However, in the entire Forbidden City, the one who is most excited about the Queen Mother's departure from Tianjin is not this class of eunuchs, palace maids, and Sula.
Who is it?
Little Emperor.
The biological mother is two hundred miles away from Beijing, and no matter how good her eyes are, she can't look at his shadow; Stretch your hand longer. I can't pull his pigtails either. Although he is still staying in the square city. But suddenly, the little emperor had the feeling of "the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and the birds fly", and his heart is full of joy and indescribable.
Alas, as a mother, Cixi was a very failure.
The little emperor was not close to his biological mother when he was a child, and the older he gets. The situation is getting worse.
Cixi's temperament, competitiveness, and hope that her son will become a dragon is no different from today's class as soon as the weekend arrives, and the parents who send their children to various interest classes and training classes; The difference is that her son is the emperor, who is the most important in the world, and his expectations are naturally higher, and the blame is more and more fulfilling.
Cixi was extremely strict with the little emperor's homework. However, the little emperor is not a piece of material for "studying". For a long time, the envoys of the Hongde Palace, mainly to Wu Ren and Xu Tong, these two talked about either "Shangshu", or "University" and "The Mean", which were obscure, and they were obscure, plus the two of Wu and Xu, according to the book, boring, therefore, the books they "went on" could not enter the head of the little emperor at all.
The other two masters, Guan Zhuofan fished for three days and dried nets for two days; Weng Tonggong is difficult to support alone, and the little emperor's homework is really called "wearing tofu in a ponytail - can't be lifted".
As soon as Cixi mentioned the little emperor's homework, she was angry and anxious, and when she saw the little emperor, she couldn't show a good face. The little emperor was scolded eight times out of ten in front of his biological mother. Occasionally, the master drew a red circle on the scroll to show encouragement, and the little emperor excitedly showed it to the empress dowager of the two palaces, but Cixi thought that "he should not grow his arrogance", although he was happy in his heart, his face was light, and at most he said, "That's it."
The little emperor only felt that a basin of cold water was poured on his head, he got up early and greedy for darkness, and studied diligently, but in exchange for a sentence of "that's it", what is the meaning of "holy learning"?
As a result, the little emperor became less and less interested in "going to the study", his homework became worse and worse, and Cixi became more and more anxious, and the more harsh the criticism became. In this way, it becomes a vicious circle, the older the little emperor gets, the farther away he is from his biological mother.
In addition, in a sense, the estrangement between the little emperor and Cixi, Ci'an unknowingly, also played a role in fueling the trouble.
Ci'an never scolded the little emperor, and when he saw his sister-in-law, a smile appeared on his face. There is a lesson, and it is also gentle and bustling, like spring breeze and rain. Even if the little emperor is not "convinced", he will not feel any discomfort. Every time he was scolded by his biological mother, the little emperor ran to his mother-in-law to "ask for comfort". When you leave Zhong Cui Palace, any depression and grievances can be resolved.
Compared with the two emperors, the little emperor's heart felt more and more that the mother was amiable and the strict mother was fearful.
Now, Yan's mother is out of the house, and there is only a loving mother left in the palace, and no one will scold me or care about me anymore.
Even, it's okay to open your throat and shout a few words of Xipi flowing water - Taiji Hall plus Changchun Palace, a huge place, are all owned by me, and I can toss it as much as I want! It's really ...... It is truly "a vast world, great achievements"!
Hey, that's a weird sentence, who am I listening to? Belch...... Is it the one with the surname Guan?
Changchun Palace is Cixi's dormitory, and Taiji Hall is the little emperor's dormitory, and the two palaces are connected together.
Changchun Palace and Taiji Palace, both belong to the West Sixth Palace, Taiji Palace is in the south of Changchun Palace, next to Changchun Palace, however, the two were not originally connected, connected together, it is a matter of Wenzong's hands.
Before Xinyou, Wenzong took Changchun Palace as his dormitory, he fell on a horse when he was a teenager, fell into a leg disease, and his body was not strong, and he did not like to move too much. The south of the Taiji Palace, that is, the Yangxin Palace, for the convenience of "commuting", Wenzong suddenly had a whim, the north wall of the Taiji Hall and the south wall of the Changchun Palace, demolished together, and then opened the apse of the Taiji Hall into the hall through the hall, so that the Taiji Hall and the second palace of the Changchun Palace, connected into a courtyard of four entrances that penetrate each other. In this way, as soon as he leaves the Taiji Palace, he can enter the Yang Xin Hall - he can reach the office by walking two zhang Xu Land, which is really convenient.
However, as soon as the project was completed, the British and French forces committed a large-scale internal attack, and Wenzong went out of the Hunting River, and he basically couldn't enjoy the convenience of walking to work.
After the coup d'état of Xinyou, the two palaces returned to Luan. At that time, the curtains of the two palaces were draped, and in order to see the folds and do things conveniently, the queen mother of the two palaces decided to live in one place and "co-office". The six palaces in the west and the six palaces in the east, one by one the palaces look at the past, among which the largest area of "Changchun Palace + Taiji Palace" has naturally become the best choice.
The Queen Mother lives in the Taiji Palace, the Queen Mother lives in the Changchun Palace, and the little emperor lives with her biological mother.
Soon, everyone found that this "co-office" for convenience, one palace and two masters, were twisted from top to bottom, which actually brought more inconvenience; And even if the two houses live separately, if there is anything to discuss, it is not too inconvenient for you to come to me or I to go to you.
So, the two palaces "separated": Cixi took the little emperor and needed a larger place to live, Ci'an moved to Zhongcui Palace, and gave the "Changchun Palace + Taiji Palace" to their mother and son.
