Chapter 486 Extra: The Woman From the Qing Dynasty (End)

[My head is confused. In the previous chapter, Yongxun’s wife was mistakenly married. It has been changed.]

Li Jinxiu's courage exceeded Jinrou's imagination. On the third day after that day's "unhappy breakup", Jinrou was still working hard on a purse in the room when Shu Qing ran over panting outside.

"Girl, girl, eldest girl, eldest girl, she made the old lady angry for some reason and was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall."

The embroidery needle held in Jinrou's hand trembled and plunged directly into the belly of her finger.

Her expression was a little dull, and all that echoed in front of her eyes was the contempt that Li Jinxiu left for her before leaving.

Swallowing, he said: "Eldest sister has always been favored by the old lady. What is the reason that made the old lady so angry?" After being punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, outsiders don't need to ask why. They only need to hear these four words. They will conclude that Jin Xiu made an absolutely huge mistake.

"How does this slave know? The ladies are very strict with their mouths." The most important thing is that she didn't dare to ask directly. The old lady gave her a silence order.

Jinrou went to the old lady's place, but she didn't see anyone. She was blocked by the old lady beside her. He said that the old lady was feeling a little uncomfortable and was already lying down.

The aunt who had arrived earlier was kneeling on the ground obediently. It was not yet the first lunar month. From time to time, he looked up at the inner room. When he saw Jinrou coming, a bright light suddenly burst out. But when he saw that Jinrou didn't even see anyone, he hung down helplessly.

Since the old lady is nowhere to be seen, Jinrou can go back. But the eldest aunt was kneeling in the house, so she could only kneel with her. As a result, within two quarters of an hour, I felt like my knees were no longer my own.

"The old lady doesn't want to see anyone, so the eldest grandma and the third girl should go back first." It had been half an hour, and Jinrou's kneeling person was almost shaking, and the old lady finally said something.

Jinrou breathed a sigh of relief and almost collapsed on the ground. The eldest aunt's breath of relief could be heard in her ears. Seeing a look of relief flash across her face, Jinrou was a little confused.

"Since the old lady made the eldest grandma angry, her anger has obviously subsided." The two maids explained on the way back, and Jinrou finally understood. She had just returned to her residence. Fangqing had not returned from fetching hot water, but her aunt had already sent a bunch of things. There are medicinal materials that can dispel cold and lack of greenness, activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and there are also some brightly colored silks and satins. Since the Fu Han army invaded Jiangnan, the three weaving industries in Jiangning, Suzhou and Hangzhou were wiped out. Although the three weaving industries started to recover again last year, The price of silk warp, dyeing, and weaving materials for official and official purposes was re-determined by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and looms were added one after another. However, the scale was less than one-fifth of the previous one, and only three craftsmen were left. There were only 700 to 800 people, and the output dropped sharply. The price of silk, especially expensive materials, has increased sharply in Beijing. Coupled with a set of gold-headed noodles, the grandma is really not stingy when it comes to taking action.

Jinrou felt that she should take part of the credit for the old lady's efforts to calm down her anger. Jinrou, who had no interest in herbal silks, looked at the pure gold beaded headdress and felt that she was worthy enough to kneel for half an hour.

In the evening, the uncle returned home. When he found out about this, he quickly apologized to the old lady. When the old man came back, Jinxiu, who had been scolded by his own mother, had been sent back to his small courtyard. And stop it for a month to see the effects.

It is reported that this year’s general election will be held earlier, and it will be almost time in a month. Jinrou thought it through. If Jinxiu didn't change her mind after a month, he might not even give her a chance to go to the general election. It's not unusual for her to become seriously ill.

In the middle of the night, Jinrou was awakened by a commotion, and then Fangqing came in to report: "The eldest lady seems to have caught a cold, and suddenly developed a high fever during the night. I went up to the house and invited Dr. Li..."

After lunch the next day, Jinrou took people with gifts to visit Jinxiu. At the door, she met Jinhui with a strange expression, "Second sister..." Jinhui is a gentle and timid person. At this moment, his expression seemed to be... A little confused, she just called Jinrou "Third Sister" and then walked past her numbly.

Jinrou looked confused. "What's going on?" She was answered by the ignorant looks of the two maids. Then Jinrou went to see Jinxiu, and at first sight, her heart skipped a beat. Is this still Jinxiu?

"Is this Jinxiu from four months ago?"

"Sister is here." Jinxiu, who was still unable to get out of bed, was very happy to see Jinrou. After a few words of conversation, Jinxiu said eagerly: "My fever last night was so severe that I even forgot about some of the things I had done before. Forget it, good sister, just tell me, starting from when I was recruited into the Old Summer Palace by the Queen Mother..."

Jinrou is confused! "This is not Jinxiu."

"No, this is not the Jinxiu from 'Donglaishun', this is an original product." Greetings to my dear mother, can I wear it again after traveling through time?

"Sister, sister..." A flash of panic flashed across Jinxiu's face. But there is no way, her fate is too amazing. It was like taking a long nap, and when I woke up, four months had passed.

"Yesterday" she was still in the Old Summer Palace. When she opened her eyes today, it was the thirty-fourth year of Qianlong's reign.

A gentle smile suddenly flashed across Jinrou's face, "Sister, your illness is indeed a bit serious this time. Do you still remember that you made the old lady very angry yesterday..." Since the person opposite is an original product, Jinrou felt that the possibility of her eldest sister dying of the disease was extremely small, so she might as well sell it to her.

…

It's spring, and the whole city of Beijing has shed the gray color of autumn and winter and replaced it with tender green. Just like everyone has shed their heavy winter clothes and put on light spring clothes.

No matter what the current situation is, the ladies of the Eight Banners in Beijing are all worried about the election that will start soon. At this moment, no one would think that the Qing Dynasty would be defeated soon. These women are more worried about their second half of life and their ideal husbands.

The election in the 34th year of Qianlong was unexpectedly brought forward. This news has been heard for a long time, but the advance is greater than many people expected. It was mentioned half a year ago and started in March.

The sudden change made many families busy. In early February, the Ministry of Households officially approved the document, requiring the governors of each banner to collect the list of beautiful girls and report it to the Ministry of Households, and then the Ministry of Households reported it to the emperor. After the list was submitted, it was a nervous wait, waiting for the date of the selection of girls.

On the day of the preliminary selection, Jinxiu, Jinhui, Jinrou, and the three girls of the Tatala clan rode three mule carts and rushed to the Shenwu Gate. The three girls were all wearing blue Manchu dresses, with identity tags hanging on their chests, and their faces were bare.

Jinrou had been traveling for more than half a year, but she still couldn't get used to the mule carts of this era, which had no flexibility.

Riding on horseback next to her was Jinxiu's elder brother Chang Xin, and Chang Ming, both of whom were silent at this time. The selection of the Eight Banners noble ladies, how rare is it? Once every three years, once every three years, one hundred and twenty years before the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, there have been 20 to 30 times, excluding the first few decades.

Jinrou also sat in the car seriously. To be honest, she was still very curious about the selection. In modern times, she had watched a lot of "selection shows", and those handsome men and beautiful women "showed" happily, and the audience in front of the TV also watched happily, but when she was about to become a selected show girl, this was definitely the first time.

Jinrou had asked the old lady and her mother who had come back from Shengjing. The result was very different from what she thought. Except for the really beautiful women who would not consider their status, they would also be rejected by the emperor's concubines who held great power. Others, such as choosing the prince's wife or the royal family's wife, would still consider the woman's family background.

Compared with the "selection" in the previous life, this is even more naked!

With a family background like Jinrou, the possibility of being rejected is extremely small. Not to mention that she looks very outstanding, she has a second-class Marquis Mafa and a former third-rank father who has just been demoted to the fifth rank. She will never be rejected. It is unlikely that she will be appointed as the legitimate wife of the two princes after being selected, but there are still a group of royal family members. It is completely possible to imagine her beautiful future.

Of course, there are also bad things. That is, the hairstyles of the Qing Dynasty are so ugly!

In the past, he often wore a hat in autumn and winter, which was not conspicuous. Or it could be said that his father and mother had a smaller hair than the one on TV, but it was still within the acceptable range. And Jinrou had never seen a man from outside the family before, and even in the memory of Da Jinrou, there were very few men from outside the family. In order not to be exposed, Ding Meng did not take the initiative to go out, and she was not very sensitive to the hairstyle. But after the New Year and the beginning of spring, she walked around more, and many servants in the mansion no longer wore hats, which made her feel sick.

That was not the moon head she was familiar with at all. The hair on the head was at most about the size of a bowl, and it was a small bowl. "Fortunately, it's not all like this." Is that Yongrong in Da Jinrou's memory a yin-yang head? Otherwise, even if you are more handsome than Andy Lau, it's still the same... Anyway, she felt uncomfortable just thinking about it. "It's okay, it's okay."

Jinrou was very much looking forward to the draft, and she had not forgotten Youshi. As for sharing a husband with other women, isn't it normal for men to have three wives and four concubines in this era? As long as the man truly loves you and pampers you, that's enough. Like her, Ma Fa and her father, as well as her uncle, second uncle and fifth uncle, they all have a bunch of concubines. Her fifth uncle is still so obedient to her fifth aunt, but he also takes concubines? As long as she gets married, these things are inevitable. The hope of the digital army has been shattered. What Yongyan and Yongji are not attractive to her at all. On the contrary, Yongrong is better!

Good at calligraphy and painting, a great talent.

Physical examination is very shameful. Even Jinrou, a soul from the 21st century, blushed with shame, and the same goes for Jinxiu and Jinhui. Then the three sisters were separated. After being reviewed by several concubines in luxurious clothes in the Tiyuan Hall, the three girls from the Hetala Mansion all entered the Chuxiu Palace.

At night, Jinrou fell asleep with a happy mood. I still have to learn the rules tomorrow morning. The maids in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are so strict. How can I not rest well? Moreover, there are special people responsible for observing the personalities, styles, and other situations of these concubines in the next month. Here, it is most appropriate to strictly follow the rules of the palace.

Didn’t you see that even the arrogant character of the original Jinxiu behaved properly?

Jinrou has been in the palace for half a month. During this period, she has been cautious and did not take more steps or say more words. However, not all the concubines around her are like her. When they gossip, they can even bring it to Qianlong. What the emperor is in his sixties, but he is still vigorous, an example is the seventeenth prince who is just three years old. What the emperor has black hair and beard, likes riding and shooting, and looks like a middle-aged man, without any old signs...

And the imperial concubine gave birth to the seventeenth prince at the age of forty. Although she was born in a poor family, she has been favored for more than twenty years. Now she is in charge of the affairs of the six palaces as the imperial concubine and performs the duties of the queen.

Besides, although the Imperial Noble Consort holds great power, she is old after all, and her looks have faded. The Noble Lady Shun, Niuhulu, has also been very favored recently...

Although Jinrou disdains it, in her memory, she has also "seen" Qianlong, and it is indeed like meeting a middle-aged uncle. But gossip always rings in her ears, so Jinrou knows everything she should know. For example, the girl in the next room who looks no worse than her is the fifth daughter of the first-class guard Deng Keerke, and she knew on the first day she entered the Chuxiu Palace that "history" has really changed. The girl in her room who looks only pretty is the beloved daughter of the first-class loyal and brave Duke Fu Heng, and the future 11th Master Yongyan's legitimate wife. And when her life story was not yet known to everyone, this girl named Nanhui frequently entered and left the palaces of the Imperial Noble Consort, the Noble Consort, and other masters and ladies. And this little girl did not become proud and cocky because of this. She was always humble, polite, easy-going and tolerant. When everyone knew her identity, many beautiful girls surrounded her to curry favor with her, and followed her every day.

The only thing Jinrou was still curious about was Qianlong, whom she had never seen in person. She had traveled through time once, and it would be a great loss if she could not see Qianlong. If she could really continue to enter Yongrong's mansion, even if she was a concubine, it would be difficult for her to see Qianlong.

One day, Jinrou was embroidering a handkerchief in the house, and the maid called her out, "My lady, the Imperial Concubine invites you to Zhongcui Palace to enjoy the flowers. Please pack up and follow me." Imperial Concubine? This is Wei Jia. Jinrou still remembers the introduction her family showed her. This person is the number one person in the inner palace today. Although she was born in the Imperial Household Department and it is said that her means of getting to the top are not very good, she is favored. And by the way, does Emperor Qianlong especially love women from the Baoyi Banner?

Jinrou looked at her outfit, which was a light yellow Manchu dress, and there was nothing wrong with it, so she didn't need to pack it and went directly. When she arrived at Zhongcui Palace, she found that she was not the only one called here, and everyone who came here was so beautiful, including Jinxiu. Jinrou's eyes compared with Jinxiu's, and all four eyes were full of ignorance and faint excitement.

On the way to Zhongcui Palace, Jinrou was still a little excited, and now seeing this situation, she was even more excited. Then three more girls arrived one after another, and there were a total of eight people. Each of them was outstanding in appearance and was the best among the girls of this year!

"I pay my respects to the Royal Concubine, and I wish the Royal Concubine good luck."

In the crisp voice of the girl, the woman sitting at the top said gently after a while: "Everyone, get up. Give me a seat." After hearing this, Jinrou got up and sat carefully on the embroidered cushion, but her butt only sat a quarter of the way so that she could get up and answer at any time. Her eyes were always slightly downward, and she didn't dare to look directly at the situation in the palace.

Jinxiu was bolder. She quietly looked up at the Imperial Concubine, then lowered her head with a flash of disdain in her eyes.

Then time passed little by little in the questioning of both sides. The Imperial Concubine's tone was condescending, but gradually the atmosphere in the hall changed. A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, three quarters of an hour..., the Imperial Concubine had not yet entered the main topic, and it was obvious that she was making small talk. Jinrou felt that something was wrong. In this case, the Imperial Concubine was either looking at the appearance, and someone else made the decision; or she was waiting for someone, but the person was late. Even the face of the Imperial Concubine at the top was a little stiff.

The voice became lower and lower, and the Imperial Concubine frowned. Jinrou looked down at her feet.

It was not until a eunuch ran in hurriedly that the atmosphere loosened. The whisk rested on the eunuch's elbow and whispered something in the Imperial Concubine's ear.

The whole hall was quiet, but it was too far away, and Jinxiu couldn't hear clearly at all. But she saw the reaction of the Imperial Concubine, which could be described as a loss of face and a fall of the sky. "The 100,000-man army in Changzhou was completely destroyed? Feng Sheng'e was completely annihilated by Chen Ni? Jiangnan was lost again..." The Imperial Concubine's voice was so sharp that it could cut glass.

Jinxiu and the other eight people did not stay in Zhongcui Palace any longer, and were sent back by the Imperial Concubine. There was no joy in the atmosphere of the group, and the words just now echoed in everyone's mind.

"Oh my God!" Jinxiu was stunned, and Jinrou was also stunned. No matter how ignorant they were, they knew the significance of Jiangnan. Jinrou even thought that the Fu Han Army that abandoned Jiangnan had gone from prosperity to decline, just like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom after the failure of the Northern Expedition. Even if they took over Huguang, it was just a last gasp, but now it is obviously not.

"Was the peasant uprising in the Qianlong Dynasty so powerful?" They took down Jiangnan? Then why did Qianlong go to Jiangnan six times? To see a ruin? Did she really travel through the Qianlong Dynasty in history? Jinrou was extremely panicked, she thought of the "left" Jinxiu...

The situation in the Qing Dynasty suddenly deteriorated, and the sisters Jinxiu and Jinrou, who were sent home from the palace, waited for each other's good news. One of them was given to Prince Lu [Yongsheng] as a concubine, and the other was given to Prince Zhi [Yongrong] as a concubine. The latter's legitimate wife was the daughter of Fu Qian (Empress Xiaoxian's younger brother, Fu Heng's elder brother), Fucha.

With the family background of the Hetala family, two legitimate girls actually became the concubines of two princes. If the Qing Dynasty was still the original Qing Dynasty, this would really be a great joy, and a great joy for the Hetala family.

But now, the eyes of the whole world are focused on the South. What will happen to the Fu Han Army that completely wiped out the Qing Dynasty's mobile main force in Jiangnan? Even Jinrou, the time-traveling girl, did not smile at the fact that she and Yongrong were going to "fall in love".

She was completely confused, and she didn't recognize China anymore.

Jiangnan was lost again!

The history of the time-traveling girl was obviously not very good, but her poor historical knowledge and her brain full of paste could tell them that this time and space was really wrong! In this way, Daqingguo would be doomed to fail. Since the Fu Han Army started its uprising, the national power has been depleted and can't be stopped.

"Is there another time traveler?" Jinrou couldn't help but think of 'Chen Ni', the 'Fu Han Army' that didn't exist in her memory, the thief chieftain who was famous all over the world before Double Ten, and this team that developed from the hinterland of Henan and shook the whole Qing Dynasty. "Is the time traveler still a man?"

If you don't rebel when you travel to Qing, you'll be like a drill! The male fans are YYing about this every day. And is that 'thief chieftain' handsome?

Jinrou's eyes suddenly flashed with confusion. A time-traveling woman, a time-traveling man, a noble lady of an important official of the imperial court, a rebel leader of a rebellious army, if, if..., then it is really the greatest and highest manifestation of a woman's value in this life.

Jinrou's whole body seemed to be suddenly passed through by an electric current. For a moment, she was confused and her lower body was a little wet.
