Chapter 927: Ill-fated

Anyone will long for family affection, love and love, the warmth of home, and the care and comfort of loved ones.

In the original history, Emperor Chongzhen had a good relationship with Empress Zhou and the two concubines.

After Concubine Tian died, Emperor Chongzhen was even more heartbroken.

Even a rare beauty like Chen Yuanyuan can't replace the position of a concubine who is in love with him in his heart.

The reason behind this is touching to say.

Because Emperor Chongzhen grew up in an environment that was extremely lacking in family affection and love.

He died of his biological mother when he was five years old, and lost his biological father when he was less than ten years old.

At the same time, his father, Emperor Taichang Zhu Changluo, reigned too shortly, and was not treated by Emperor Chongzhen's grandfather, Emperor Wanli, during his lifetime, resulting in Emperor Chongzhen's childhood, although he was an imperial grandson, he did not enjoy the treatment of an imperial grandson.

Not to mention the warmth of having a home when he was a child, speaking of which, he didn't even have a real home.

If he was born in a peaceful and prosperous world, and was the king of his faith in peace, he might be able to enjoy glory and wealth until a good death.

But unfortunately succeeded to the throne as Emperor Chongzhen, after the fate of the ill-fated, family, friendship, love, he did not have the same, as the emperor, he will not have, can not have, and cannot have.

Counting the end of his final hanging, his life is simply a complete tragedy.

Now that Emperor Chongzhen has come to this era by mistake, what he wants to change most is the fate of Emperor Chongzhen and the fate of these people around Emperor Chongzhen, in addition to the ending of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, by now, the fate of Emperor Chongzhen is his own fate.

And the fate of the people around Emperor Chongzhen in history is now the fate of these family members around him.

He is no longer an innocuous outsider in later generations, or a spectator with no direct interest, but a party who directly determines himself and the people around him to some extent, as well as the fate of the Ming Dynasty.

Those loyal ministers and good generals who have died for the Ming Dynasty or have done their best in history, in this life, they must try their best to let them have their own place.

And the concubines who are as ill-fated as Emperor Chongzhen, in this life, they must do their best to avoid repeating their fate in history.

As for Hai Lanzhu, who was included in the harem by mistake, her fate in history has been changed.

However, the current Emperor Chongzhen does not want this change to be a bad change.

If this change is worse than the outcome in its history, then it is really a tyrannical thing to do it yourself.

When Hai Lanzhu was included in the palace, whether it was out of a political consideration, a political arrangement, or because of his historical fate, he didn't want it to fall into the hands of Huang Taiji, or just wanted to take her beauty and wanted to keep it for himself, but now two years have passed, for Emperor Chongzhen, Hai Lanzhu has already become a family member and a part of his own life.

This time, Hai Lanzhu and Concubine Tian gave birth to a princess and a prince on the other, but they were promoted to concubines at the same time, which is to show the government and the opposition in the palace and outside the palace the position of Hai Lanzhu or Mongolia outside the palace in their hearts.

On November 12, in the congratulatory voices of the Jingshi Xungui and the ministers of civil and military affairs of the imperial court, Emperor Chongzhen was busy and took a few attendants to Chengqian Palace to visit the newly promoted Tian Guifei and talk with him for a while, and then went to Chuxiu Palace to visit Lan Guifei Hai Lanzhu.

Although the ceremony of the emperor and empress canonizing Concubine Lan as Concubine Lan has not yet been held, the will to canonize Concubine Lan has already been issued and spread inside and outside the palace.

Hai Lanzhu, who was still worried that she would make Emperor Chongzhen unhappy if she gave birth to a daughter, quickly dispelled this idea.

Not only did Emperor Chongzhen not look unhappy at all, but he was also promoted to a concubine at the same time as Tian, who gave birth to a prince a few days later.

And the daughter she gave birth to, like the eldest daughter of the emperor, was soon canonized as Princess Kunyi.

Emperor Chongzhen's practice of treating everyone equally made Hai Lanzhu's heart feel both down-to-earth and happy.

If the same thing had happened to the Horqin tribes, or to the Mobei Mongol tribes and the Jurchens who might have been exchanged for political marriages, there would have been no such result.

Hai Lanzhu, who was born in Horqin, is a woman herself, how can she not know how low the status of women is among the Mongols and Jurchens.

In the Mongols and Jurchens, women were the property of their fathers and brothers.

Of course, what Hai Lanzhu didn't know was that in the Ming Dynasty of this era, the status of women was not high, but she met the Chongzhen Emperor, who was the most respectful of women in this era.

Emperor Chongzhen took a few chamberlains, walked through the palace walls and alleys that were vertical and horizontal like chessboards, and came to the door of Chuxiu Palace first, and the palace maids who were waiting saw the emperor coming and hurriedly knelt down to greet them, and Emperor Chongzhen did not wait for the palace maids to pass the word, and strode to the backyard of Chuxiu Palace, and walked into the main hall of Hailanzhu's dormitory.

The many maids waiting outside the warm pavilion in the hall knelt on the ground, Hai Lanzhu heard the voice, knew that the emperor was coming, and was about to get up from the couch on the sunny side of the Xinuan Pavilion, when he saw that Emperor Chongzhen had walked in first, and said to her with a smile:

"Concubine Lan is exempt! Excuse me! Princess Kunyi was born only a few days ago, and the concubine worked hard, so there was no need to be polite! ”

Emperor Chongzhen's heartwarming words made Hai Lanzhu's eyes moist and almost burst into tears.

Women's childbirth has always been a dangerous hurdle in life, and this kind of thing was especially true in the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years ago.

Therefore, for the pregnancy and childbirth of the concubines in the palace, not only the concubines themselves are afraid, but now the Emperor Chongzhen himself is also worried about them.

Once there is an accident, even the royal family has no way to save lives in this era.

Therefore, when he heard that Hai Lanzhu gave birth to a child, his first concern was not to give birth to a boy or a girl, but to have something wrong with Hai Lanzhu herself.

Emperor Chongzhen entered the Xinuan Pavilion in the main hall of the backyard of Chuxiu Palace, sat down on a circle chair in front of the couch by the window, took Hai Lanzhu's hand, and said to her with a smile:

"I don't know what the customs are on the Horqin grassland, but after giving birth to a child, all the Han women of the Ming Dynasty have to be confined and recuperate quietly for at least a month before they can go out and walk around!

"During this period, you can't get angry, you can't be exposed to the wind, you can't wash with cold water, and you can't eat a cold and hard diet, so as not to fall into any hidden diseases in the future when you are old!

"In the past, how to eat in Chuxiu Palace, since I let you come casually, I never cared, but now that I just gave birth to Princess Kunyi, in the next month, you have to listen to me, and it is better to follow the customs!"

After Emperor Chongzhen saw Hai Lanzhu, he looked at her slightly haggard but still beautiful face and posture after giving birth, and remembered that she died of illness in the original history, and her compassion was even stronger, and he told her some rules and precautions he knew one by one.

And Hai Lanzhu looked at the emperor in front of him with a smile, listening to his chatter, her heart was full of warmth.

Hai Lanzhu already knew simple Chinese before entering the palace, and at this time after entering the palace for two years, except for occasionally talking to Horqin's hometown dialect with Concubine Yi and Ning Concubine, the two personal maids brought out from Horqin that day, the rest of the time, not only read Tang poems and Song lyrics, but also interacted with the female relatives of the Gongshun Marquis's Mansion, or with other concubines and female officials in the palace.

At this time, I naturally heard a strong concern and love from Emperor Chongzhen's words.

Hai Lanzhu's beautiful eyes were a little moist, and her beautiful face was smiling, staring at Emperor Chongzhen who was talking eloquently, with trust, touch, dependence, and reverence in her eyes.

Speaking of which, when she first entered the Forbidden City, whenever she faced Emperor Chongzhen alone, Hai Lanzhu's inner emotions were very complicated.

If you want to say how much she loves Emperor Chongzhen, of course, it can't be said, after all, she was robbed by the Ming army of Rehebao led by Cao Wenzhao and Niu Juming.

Although the Ming army took her away and spared her other relatives and family, it was a painful thing for anyone to leave their homeland.

Jingshi, who agreed to come to the Ming Dynasty at the beginning, agreed to enter the palace to become the concubine of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, which was not a completely willing thing for her.

Now, of course, she often feels fortunate for this, glad that she married the right person, and glad that she made the right choice at the beginning.

But two years ago, she entered the palace with a resigned mentality, with the mentality of saving Horqin's future.
