In the blink of an eye, November 23rd came, and Dafu entered the "First Seven".
In current wedding and funeral customs, the "first seven days" are not counted on the seventh day after the death of the deceased, but on the sixth day.
The soul of the deceased will leave the world tonight.
The memory of the deceased will fade and the thoughts will become confused.
Relatives came to say goodbye and burned incense to point her in the direction of death.
The formal ceremony takes place at Zi hour, so the "first seven" are also called "six days of tail and seven days of head".
This day is also a big festival.
Close relatives and friends need to sit in vigil at night.
No need to rush early.
Shu Shu and the others came out of the palace at dusk.
It is still the gathering of Shenwumen.
The same old people who came out last time were the same ones beside Qingxi. There was a nanny and a little palace maid who had just grown her hair.
The nun and the little palace maid were holding a package in their hands.
Qingxi's eyes were slightly red, and she explained to Shu Shu in a low voice: "It's still early for the young masters to pay filial piety. Our empress will send her servants to serve the young master in the prince's palace, and in the next year, she will enter the palace with my little brother..."
This means one hundred days of filial piety.
Even in the future, the younger generation will still have to observe filial piety for their mother, but they will not be considered filial piety and will not rush into others.
Shu Shu nodded and said: "My aunt is working hard, if you can do more work, my concubine can feel more at ease..."
As the head of the concubine, Concubine Hui always behaves fairly and fairly, and there is no obvious difference between her treatment of her eldest brother and other brothers.
Only for the granddaughter and grandson, I finally made an exception. First, I sent the nanny from Yanxi Palace there, and now I also sent the eldest maid next to me.
Xiaojia got off the carriage, surrounded by guards and guards, and headed to the Zhijun Prince's Mansion.
Si Fujin remembered that Qingxi had just brought the manpower, and said to Ama Sigua: "Is it possible that Concubine Hui wants to point Qingxi to my brother as concubine Shenghong..."
The age of celebration is old, seventy-eight or seven years old, and there are only two years left before leaving the palace.
When you leave the palace, you have to consider the little things in the first half of your life.
At that age, other than being a stepmother, there were no good options.
Concubine Shenghong in the prince's palace is also a way out.
Shu Shenghong, that sounds respectable.
The status is between Gege and Side Shushu.
In fact, this is not a polite statement. Is there any canonization by the court?
Amma thinks it is possible.
Little Shushu has passed away, and Shushu will have to leave the house.
Xiao Shushu risked his life to give birth to Dafujin, so Concubine Hui would gamble with her grandson's safety on Ji Shenghong's character and conscience.
He was brought up by his side, and some of his confidants were asked to go there.
If you want to be raised by the palace, eight years old is not a barrier.
By then Da Shenghong will be able to live in the inner court again.
If you want to stay in Shenghong, you need the emperor's grace, but this is too eye-catching.
The least likely possibility is to arrange for confidants to take care of her, and to take her back to the palace from time to time.
Amma doesn't hate celebrating, but she can't help grinding her teeth.
What's that...
Xiao Shushu's body is still cold, and the candidate for the concubine has not yet been selected.
Preparing to fill a house, it is said that Kangxi is also making a choice.
How could such a precious little Shenghong be willing to let me be a widower...
When they arrived at the Zhijun Prince's Mansion, Ama was still led to the West Side Hall, while Si Fujin took several older ones to the East Side Hall.
Outside the funeral shed, the monks, Taoists, Fans and other monasteries remained the same, and Xiaojia's face looked more sad than dull.
Ba Shu Shu, Qi Shu Shu, Qi Shu Shu have not arrived yet.
Yi Shu Shu and Si Shu Shu are there.
You two are late, but because you are "seven-eyed people", you can come to express your condolences.
Because tonight, apart from the fact that the deceased is coming back to say goodbye to his relatives and friends, no one has come to pick him up for fear of collision.
Amma was relieved.
Si Shushu, who is now here, is probably going to have a firecracker, and Ama wants to be affected by Chi Yu.
The royal clan's Shu Shu came with few missions. Only Shu Shu, the two princes from Prince An's family, Mrs. Beizi and two generals' wives had not yet arrived.
The male relatives were muttering and eye-rolling, talking about the news of those two days.
It is not a matter of Sifujin being given a side of prosperity.
It didn't seem like a slap, it hit the faces of the clan members of Prince An's family.
In the past, if the emperor was so mean to his clan members, he would have been criticized long ago.
Before I figured out the reason, I became a stranger to silence.
Xiaojia feels that Prince An’s Mansion is doing its own thing.
If we make a fuss and want to take our nephew back, will His Majesty slap him in the face like that?
Although His Majesty treated the clan without discipline during those years, he was still very tolerant in a small amount of time.
In particular, the Prince's Mansion and the County Prince's Mansion are not inherited by the Baby Prince.
Even without His Majesty's support, I can suppress the side branches and secure the throne.
Instead of a finger-marriage held every eight years, the emperor's side was also reduced to the immediate branch, that is, the upper clan of Taizong's lineage.
Unless the rest of my clan goes to the palace to request an order, they are not interfering with our betrothal.
Today the princes of the Four Banners have a very ambivalent attitude towards the royal family.
Anyway, everyone has no position.
Qi Shushu hadn't been worried for two days and found an excuse to pull Amma out.
"Okay, why is Xiang Shenghong missing? He is still a noble man born in the flag year..."
Qishenghong said worriedly.
Maybe Kangxi wanted to slap Prince Anjun in the face, but he also scared you princes Shu Shu.
Qishenghong said loudly: "I'm afraid it will set a precedent..."
The princes, Fujins, and others have to allocate their population when they are granted titles. If they all come to have such an imperial conferment, where will you, the direct Shushu, stand?
The two sisters looked at each other and looked in the direction of the Forbidden City.
In Kangxi's eyes, he would take you princes Shu Shu seriously, but you still seemed to have turned into monkeys and had no lingering fear.
Qi Shenghong took Shenghong's hand and told him loudly: "He is here at Brother, and everything is under the eyes of the elders. He needs to be more cautious, remember to be virtuous and comfortable, and be filial to his daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law." , anyway, the mistakes can be made in it..."
Amma nodded.
You already knew that.
The royal family is not a royal family, but a common people's family. If you really want to be praised by your elders, you will be given a chance to correct yourself.
Si Shushu prides herself on being of low birth, even though she does not have the support of the royal family.
If I were a courtier like you, my whole family would have to plead guilty, let alone support me.
Amma returned to hold Qi Shenghong's hand and sighed in her heart.
Qi Shushu was right to worry.
Today's gift to Shenghong has indeed become a precedent.
I know that there are very few things that happen in real history.
Anyway, this is not the case with Qishenghong.
When the seventh minor title was granted to the prince in the seventy-fourth year of Kangxi's reign, Qifu Jin was promoted to prince, and the subordinates and eight banners were divided into assistants and masters.
But Shu Shu, who was not the big rice cake before, appeared on the wedding side and dominated the favor for ten years.
Honghui......
Amma is worried.
I think it's a small insurance policy.
Life and death are so easy to reverse...
You just leaned close to Qi Shushu's ear and said loudly: "Sister-in-law Qi, give nephew Honghui a younger brother..."
Be a double insurance.
Qishushu was stunned and looked at Ama.
Amma said loudly: "After that, I heard a few gossips in Shenghong, saying that Li Gege is a good match for a girl. She has been having children one after another here, and there is only one for my sister-in-law..."
You are trying to talk about Honghui's safety, but this has become a curse and a crow's mouth. Is there anyone who can listen to it? So I reminded you from a different angle.
Qi Fujin is a man of rules, even if he spoils his concubines and kills his wife, he treats his children the same way.
It turns out here that it's just a special position, but "it's useless to have a child", but unintentionally it wasn't Xi Shenghong before.
"Instead of worrying about the future, it is better to be attentive to things outside the home..."
Amma said.
Qishushu nodded gratefully.
Shenghong is not a man of words. When he talks to that point, he is also worried about you.
The two sisters talked a lot, became a little closer to each other, and came back hand in hand.
Ba Shenghong looked at it and smiled, but didn't look down at it.
Don’t you have anything to say behind someone’s back?
Is it going to say something to you...
Bashu Shu thought about it for a while and realized that there was nothing wrong with it.
Now you hold two Fujins, who have the least confidence.
Even if others are angry, there is nothing you can do.
Especially for Qi Shushu, her observance of filial piety was delayed for several months.
It will be eight years since next year, and I have a child in eight years.
No matter what the elders say, they still have to arrange for concubines to share the same room with each other in order to beg for a child.
Thinking like that, you looked at Qi Shushu with pity in your eyes.
Qishushu didn't pay attention at all, your attention was all on Ama.
When the drum beats at the eighth watch, the little family goes to the funeral and lays incense.
Afterwards, Xiaojia returned to the west hall.
Qi Shenghong stepped forward, pulled Shenghong and said loudly: "You only know about your Shenghong, let them worry..."
The first grade is directly the seventh grade.
It was that time again, and I went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
I just want to guess, but I also know that there is no handwriting of Si Fujin in it.
Small favors turn into enemies.
Amma was so grateful and said: "I should have received grace a long time ago. It's been several years late. You guys came here to remind me. To be honest, even if I said it that time, the emperor It’s time to think of it..."
Si Shushu Xiaoyan was ashamed to use her background to belittle Qi Shushu, and that would also spread to the Queen.
Qishushu is verbose and just keeps it in mind.
The family has to stay vigil for one more night, which is considered as the first step to send the deceased away.
*
In the west side hall.
Xiaojia also came back after offering incense.
The little family sat down in twos and twos, and the older princes of the clan were helped to take a rest under the Arhat bed next to them.
Besides Si Fujin, Shi Shenghong was invited to come and talk to Si Fujin, but it was Gu Qi Shenghong who was right next to him.
After that, I wasn't tired of that hot noodle brother, and I wasn't a little scared anymore. Now it seems that he is not a paper tiger, but just ignores my white face.
Sifujin was annoyed to death by Guo Luoluo, and he followed Sifujin to talk with a bit of schadenfreude.
"The Chinese New Year will be celebrated in less than a month, so Fourth Brother should have a good rest and gather the people of the banner..."
That said, Sifujin was still running errands.
"We won't be able to hold weddings until the end of July, after my sister-in-law's filial piety, and it will be arranged for you to do it quietly..."
Since it is a marriage, it is also handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
You also want to "accept the gift" and get married.
Sifujin is eager to try.
I haven't thought about it yet, if I should take that as a preview of Shi Fujin's wedding.
At that time, it will be considered as killing two birds with one stone.
The first is to directly slap Guo Luoluo in the face and ask you to behave with your tail between your legs. An Sheng hides away from home and doesn't come out to bully others.
The seventh is to give Fourth Brother a face, so as to appease the Fucha family, so that we can be more loyal to Fourth Brother.
Eighth, check to see if there are any flaws, which can be avoided when the tenth child is getting married.
When I talk about silence, Qi Fujin's face is quite pale, and he is about to scold him at the sight of him.
Sifujin spoke.
I shook my head and said: "This matter needs to be postponed..." After saying that, he paused: "You will go to Ma Xiaoren's house to plead guilty and push the auspicious date to the first half of next year..."
Sifujin took it easy after hearing this.
"Fourth brother, how can you do that? If the Khan's palace is favored, it should be done as soon as possible. What's the point of delaying it until then? What do you want the Khan's palace to think? Is that a sign of failure? Or do you think you want to do another job? ?”
I said loudly, and it was too late for Shi Fujin to stop me.
Si Fujin's face became less stiff.
Shi Shenghong said hurriedly: "Fourth brother can think of those things, so of course fourth brother will also think of it... It's just that fourth brother has less worries. When fourth sister-in-law is happy, blood is the most important thing. If it's not that Khan Shenghong will be considerate, it's because fourth brother has no heart." There’s no sense in it…”

The loudspeaker of the district sounded at seven o'clock, and the temporary nucleic acid test was carried out from 5 to 8 o'clock, and it was 55, so the time was wasted.
