Chapter 778: Grace
Princess Kunxing was bold. No matter what, Xiao Shishi just entered the palace and was not qualified to be a crown princess. Princess Kunxing called her sister-in-law.
Well, this princess who has been spoiled since childhood is willful after all. Everyone in Shangyi Bureau knows that only the princess can be so carefree in the palace.
Who made the princess the most favored? Even Emperor Chongzhen, who had always been strict, dared not say anything to his daughter. Not to mention the meticulous love for his daughter by Queen Zhou.
Zhu Cixuan also spoiled his sister. The tragedy of history will finally stop happening. Princess Kunxing is probably the happiest woman in the world.
The people from Shangyi Bureau did not dare to stop them, and Xiao Shishi knew nothing about the rules in the palace. In this way, she was pulled by Princess Kunxing and went all the way to Kunning Palace.
Xiao Shishi is actually nervous inside, but fortunately, she feels much better with a princess of the same age with her.
Kunning Palace, when we arrived at Kunning Palace, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
The name of Kunning Palace comes from the original text of the Tao Te Ching: "In the past, if one gets one, the heaven is clear, the earth is calm, the god is spiritual, the valley is full, all things are born, and the marquis and kings are one, and they think that the world is upright."
In ancient times, the status of the empress was the most noble among women in the world. The emperor was the heaven, the empress was the earth, the emperor was Qian, the empress was Kun, and the empress was the only one in the world. The empress's bedroom was taken from the Tao Te Ching. The sentence "The earth got one and was peaceful" was named Kunning Palace. Similarly, "The heaven got one and was qing", and the emperor's bedroom was called Qianqing Palace. Therefore, Kunning Palace and Qianqing Palace were the bedrooms of the empress and the emperor respectively.
This place is the queen's bedroom and the place where the queen, the Lord of the Six Palaces, lives, is natural, solemn and dignified.
Even Princess Kunxing whispered a lot, after all, the palace rules were strict. She could be more free in Shangyi Bureau, but she could only restrain herself in Kunning Palace.
Fortunately, Princess Kunxing took great care of Xiao Shishi, so she led Xiao Shishi into Kunning Palace. What surprised her was that Queen Yi'an was there too.
Princess Kunxing hurriedly saluted: "I have met the emperor and the queen."
Queen Yi'an Zhang Yan was kind and kind. She stretched out her hand with a smile. Princess Kunxing smirked and rushed over, pounced on Queen Yi'an's arms.
Empress Yi'an has no children and loves Zhu Cilang and Princess Kunxing Zhu Mai. Princess Kunxing hid in Queen Yi'an's arms and winked at Xiao Shishi.
Xiao Shishi had no choice but to learn the etiquette taught by Shang Gong a few days ago, and knelt down to Queen Yi'an and Queen Zhou: "Minister Shen Shishi, please see Queen Yi'an, please see Queen."
Empress Yian and Empress Zhou looked at each other, and both of them had smiles in their eyes. Originally, Empress Zhou was a little worried. She was worried about her son's eyes, but now it seems that she was redundant.
Princess Kunxing Zhu Ma, has a beautiful appearance. She has a shoulder that is cut into a waist as smooth as a flattering, and her skin as solid as a fat and noble temperament. She folds her waist with a small step, presenting her white wrist in a light gauze. Her eyes contain spring water and clear waves, and she is like a fairy descending to earth.
Anyone who has seen Princess Kunxing knows that the princess is probably the most beautiful woman in the world. But I never expected that there are even beauties in the world that Xiao Shishi compares with.
Even Princess Kunxing couldn't help but exclaim: "How about mother, is my sister-in-law very beautiful?"
Xiao Shishi's face turned red and she stood up: "The two empresses are the great beauties, just like the characters in the painting. The two empresses are so beautiful."
Without the queen's grace, she actually stood up without permission. Logically, this is a serious crime. Also, Xiao Shishi is innocent and says whatever she thinks.
One is the empress of the late emperor, and the other is the lord of the six palaces today. Two women who are in the world, who dares to say to you in person that you are beautiful?
But Xiao Shishi dared because she didn't know anything. She didn't know that this was a violation of the palace rules, which was a very serious matter.
But Empress Yian and Empress Zhou were not angry, but they were secretly happy. Although this child was unrestrained, she did not lie because of this.
Unlike those who flatter the flames and flatter the enemy, this is a heartfelt admiration. At the age of Empress Yi'an and Empress Zhou, a little girl would even be called a beauty by a little girl. How could they not be happy in their hearts?
As for Xiao Shishi's uninvitation to stand up, the two of them were even more uneasy. They had never entered the palace, so naturally they didn't know the rules of the palace.
For example, Empress Yi'an and Empress Zhou, they were all civilian women who were selected into the palace. Seeing Xiao Shishi, they seemed to see themselves when they were young.
Especially Queen Yi'an, she was filled with emotion. Her life in the palace can be said to be full of bloody intrigues. It was really not easy to survive in such a cruel environment back then.
At that time, Emperor Tianqi was incompetent and the government was in charge of Wei Zhongxian. Wei Zhongxian was determined to kill Empress Yi'an. Under such difficult circumstances, it was a miracle that Empress Yi'an could survive until now.
Before Emperor Tianqi was dying, Wei Zhongxian wanted to establish a new king. Emperor Tianqi was foolish and incompetent, and had no opinion.
It was Empress Yi'an Zhang Yan, who strongly advocated helping Emperor Chongzhen to throne. Without Empress Yi'an, how could the current Emperor Chongzhen be?
How arrogant Wei Zhongxian was at that time, it can be said that he had completely controlled the court and the entire Ming Dynasty.
Emperor Tianqi had no queen, so Wei Zhongxian asked Keshi to arrange two pregnant palace maids to enter the palace, pretending to be the descendants of Emperor Tianqi. Emperor Tianqi actually believed it.
Keshi arranged for pregnant palace maids to enter the harem to pretend to be descendants of Xizong. Emperor Xizong of Ming Dynasty told Empress Zhang that Wei Zhongxian told me that two people in the harem were pregnant and that they would be made emperors in the future. Empress Zhang expressed opposition and believed that King Xin should be appointed Zhu Youjian early. After a long stalemate, Empress Zhang persuaded Emperor Xizong of Ming to pass on the throne. Zhu Youjian wanted to refuse, but Zhang Yan walked out from behind the screen and said: "The emperor's uncle is obliged, and the matter is urgent, so there may be changes." King Xin was willing to inherit the throne.
At that time, Emperor Chongzhen was in a difficult situation. Even when he entered the palace and waited for ascending the throne, he did not dare to eat the food in the palace.
Empress Yi'an reminded him to be careful of the poisonous diet. Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne and then defeated Wei Zhongxian in such an environment.
It can be said that Emperor Chongzhen, who was at the beginning of his ascension, had made great achievements. At one point, he almost turned the tide. Unfortunately, it was a river of spring water in the end.
Fortunately, Zhu Cilang is now in existence. The Ming Dynasty is gradually moving towards prosperity. Looking at the present and thinking about the difficulties of the past, Zhang Yan couldn't help but feel mixed feelings.
