The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 226 Accompanying the Empress Dowager
On the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, the summer resort became lively. Yongzheng decreed that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated in Chengde this year, and it is rare for the Empress Dowager to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival outside the palace.

Zarafin was taken by the queen early to pay her respects to the empress dowager. The old lady was very excited and began to talk about the customs of the Mongolian tribes celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the queen recorded them one by one.

According to the wishes of the emperor and Yongzheng, and according to the wishes of the empress dowager, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was prepared.

"Jiaojiao, wait until the fifteenth day, come to me after you have breakfast. Let's sit outside in the stone pavilion and watch the warriors harness horses outside." Celebration seen inside.

Zarafin quickly responded, "Okay."

At noon, the queen took Zarafin to accompany the empress dowager for lunch. The aunt and nephew strolled in the corridor. The Summer Resort was built in the last year of Kangxi, and Zarafin looked at the back of the front.

"Aunt." Zarafin was a little surprised: "You said, why did the Empress Dowager let me celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival on the fifteenth day?"

The queen stopped and turned around: "Jiaojiao, the empress dowager is the safest side."

Back in the Yanyu Building, Zalanfen sat in the study, thinking about what the queen reminded him, is it the safest? !
"Huobi, who will come to the villa during the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Zarafin pondered for a while before asking.

"Master, all the princes of the Mongolian tribe will come to the villa to pay their respects. There are more than a dozen princes who are asking for marriage with the Lord Long Live." Tortoiseshell said quickly.

Snapped!
Zarafin put down the brush in his hand, it turned out that this was the case.

"Change into powder blue clothes for the Mid-Autumn Festival." Zarafin decided to follow the Queen's advice and just stay with the Empress Dowager.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zarafen changed into his clothes at Yinshi, and was dragged into the carriage by Hongli.

"Jiaojiao, go to the Empress Dowager's side for a while and stay at ease, no matter who passes you on, don't go out." Hongli, dressed in golden elder brother's regular clothes, told her with a serious expression.

"Ah, I understand." Zarafin nodded.

Hongli sent Zhalafin to the Empress Dowager's courtyard, and Narentoya was waiting at the gate of the courtyard. He handed Zarafin to Narentoya with his own hands, and watched the two enter the courtyard before he felt at ease. He got into the carriage and rushed to the Buku field.

Today, there are too many princes in the Buku field, in order to prevent anyone from doing it, the Empress Dowager chose to come forward.

Zarafin walked into the hall, just in time to see the Empress Dowager just got up, she respectfully saluted the Empress Dowager.

"Jiaojiao, let's have breakfast first, didn't we have time?" The Empress Dowager, dressed in royal blue uniform, sat in the dining room and began to eat breakfast.

On the dining table, there were some exquisite Jiangnan side dishes, which were rarely found in the palace. They didn't even prepare porridge for breakfast, but simple noodles and pasta.

"Use more, these pastries are all sent from outside the customs, milk tea from Mongolia." The Empress Dowager said directly.

After breakfast, the Empress Dowager ordered Narentoya to prepare snacks, and the two sat in the pavilion, just in time to see Bukuchang's actions.

"Jiaojiao, Yuanshou and the others will all go down." The Empress Dowager took a sip from her teacup, "It's time for the Mongolian warriors to go to Buku."

Zarafin heard the sound of trombones and drums on Buku field.

"Master, among the Mongolian warriors, there are two heirs of the right-wing prince of Horqin." Narentoya replied.

"Why did those two children come here?" The Empress Dowager became suspicious, "Didn't Wuyou say that those two children would not come?" The Empress Dowager became curious.

"It is said that the emperor dragged them here. The two children are basically leaning on the back, neither fighting nor grabbing. The two of them hug each other and won't let others calculate." Narentoya said.

Zarafin listened carefully to what the Empress Dowager said, and Narentoya gave a detailed report. She understood that the two elder brothers of the right-wing prince's family did not want to marry Princesses of the royal family or the clan. They were probably married Princesses. scared.

"You think it's strange?" The Empress Dowager smiled unkindly, Zarafin's confused eyes made her happy.

Zarafin nodded: "Mother, I don't understand. These are all matters of the previous dynasty, I shouldn't understand."

"Not in the future, you have to look at the affairs of the previous court to keep yourself safe in the backyard." The Empress Dowager saw that only her own people were serving in the pavilion, and began to give Zarafin instructions.

Zarafin looked at the Empress Dowager in astonishment: "Your Majesty."

"Yuanshou's backyard will never be peaceful. Fuchani Chuhe's methods are definitely superior to yours." The Empress Dowager said directly. "Mongol's support has always been Qing's strongest reinforcement. Now, with the Firearms Battalion, Qing no longer needs to marry a princess."

It's not easy for Zarafin to interrupt, the Empress Dowager didn't seem to notice Zarafin's embarrassment, and Narentoya knew that the Empress Dowager was teaching Zarafin Gege.

"Jiaojiao... Aijia said just now, do you remember clearly?" The Empress Dowager asked after talking about a cup of tea, looking at Zarafin.

Externally, the Empress Dowager doesn't care about everything. In fact, she is only good to those who treat her sincerely. The emperor, Yongzheng, and the empress are all very kind to her. Hongli often brings Zarafin over. It was a good match, Zarafin was young, and the Empress Dowager, as a support, came to help.

"Yes!" Zarafin agreed.

"The Mongolian tribes are getting worse and worse. They always rely on the glory of the elders, and they will surely fall in the future." The Empress Dowager sighed secretly. "If brother and others are still there, they will definitely be angry. There is really no one in the tribe who can lock them up."

Zarafin listened to the Empress Dowager's words, and stood quietly by the side, absolutely not saying a word, for fear that these words would touch someone.

"Master, you scared Little Gege." Narentoya reluctantly stepped forward, Zarafin was stunned.

"It's okay, Jiaojiao, after hearing what the Ai family said, if you go out, Gege from the two tribes will find you, so you can find an excuse to leave, you know?" The Empress Dowager looked at Zarafin and said.

"Yes!" Zarafin sat quietly beside the Empress Dowager, quietly looking into the distance.

On the Buku field, the princes of Mongolia have already started fighting, and they all hope to win the first place and enter the team of imperial guards.

"Master, it's time for our fourth elder brother to go to the ring soon." Na Rentuoya approached the Empress Dowager and said.

"Yuan Shou?!" The Empress Dowager became suspicious, "The fourth child is really a troublemaker, how old are the Mongolian princes, how old is Yuan Shou, is it worth it?"

"Master, the fourth elder brother doesn't want to be looked down upon. The Mongolian princes must have said something bad." Na Rentuoya replied.

Zarafin recalled that in the past few days, every time Hongli came back, his complexion was very bad, and occasionally there were some bruises on his body.
