There was a huge earthquake in the outer court, but the inner court was quiet.
Chongzhen calmly adjusted all the members of the Director of Ceremonies in an understated manner, replacing the members with people who were not direct loyalists to Jiu Qian Sui, but who had always cooperated.
This made Jiu Qiansui feel that the emperor was not unable to communicate, but just wanted to expand his power.
At the age of nine thousand, he entered the Qianqing Palace and had a secret talk with the emperor for half an hour.
After Jiu Qiansui came out, the emperor issued a gentle decree to comfort Cui Chengxiu and let him go home to rest first.
Cui Chengxiu went home and listened behind closed doors.
Later, the emperor issued a decree that the Hakka family was the former emperor's wet nurse and it was not appropriate for me to continue to use her. Moreover, I have grown up and no longer need a wet nurse. I have been brought out of the palace by the Holy Lady to go home to support me.
Apocalypse cannot live without the Hakka family, and must always be served by the Hakka family. A minister once advised me that Your Majesty is of age and should not spend time with your wet nurse.
Tianqi then sent the Hakka family out of the palace, but Tianqi was used to being served by the Hakka family. If it were anyone else, he wouldn't be able to bear it.
Without Hakka's comfort, I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, and felt uncomfortable all over.
After enduring it for a few days, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I recruited the Hakka family back again.
Yang Fan didn't understand this matter very much. He once asked Tu Shanyue, and Tu Shanyue told him that you grew up in the mountains and didn't understand the habits of the wealthy people in the Ming Dynasty.
Young masters from wealthy families grew up under the care of wet nurses.
Wealthy families generally choose women who have just given birth to their first child between the ages of thirteen and fourteen to be wet nurses, believing that such products are of good quality and beneficial to children.
Often they buy both mother and daughter. After all, if you buy one alone, the child will starve to death, which is a sin. Rich families don't want their children to commit evil acts as soon as they are born, starving a baby girl to death just to feed themselves.
If the poor people of the Ming Dynasty married a wife and gave birth to a girl for their first child, they would most likely sell both mother and daughter to a wealthy family. In this way, they would get a lot of money and then marry a man who looked good enough to have a boy. Wife, there is still a lot of money left.
And after these two women were bought by a wealthy family, they became the slaves of the young master's house. One is a wet nurse and the other is a maid.
They grew up taking care of the young master and have a deep relationship with him.
As the young master grows up, if someone else takes care of him, he will be very unaccustomed to it and feel uncomfortable all over.
Yang Fan asked the young master what he would do with these two people when he grew up.
Tu Shanyue explained that generally a wet nurse would be trusted by a young master and would be the housekeeper of his room. If the little girl was good-looking and liked by the young master, she would usually be the maidservant, or even a concubine. If the young master doesn't like it and the young master doesn't want to accept it, he also has the young master's trust and will serve him by his side.
Yang Fanxin said, no wonder Tianqi allowed the Hakka family to dominate the palace. It turned out that it was a common situation in the Ming Dynasty for wet nurses to take care of the young master's internal affairs.
The young lady also has to give them some face, after all, they have the young master's favor.
Yang Fan suddenly thought of a situation. After thinking about it, he decided to forget it and stop asking.
The little girl also knew what he wanted to ask, and her face turned red.
There are wonderful things in the inner house and backyard of the Ming Dynasty.
Yang Fan said to Xiao Niangpi: "In the future, our children are not allowed to use wet nurses. I want you to feed them yourself."
Xiao Niangpi lowered her head this time, her face was red, and she made an exception this time and did not step on Yang Fan's feet.
After Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, the Hakka family moved out of Qianqing Palace and currently lives in Erluan Palace.
Yang Fan and Xiao Niangpi led the regiment under the leadership of Wang Chengen and went to the Yiluan Palace to see the Holy Lady out of the palace.
Yang Fan heard from Xiao Niangpi that the people living in Renshou Palace (Ningshou Palace in Qing Dynasty) were not ordinary masters. If we don't lead troops, I'm afraid Wang Cheng'en won't be able to suppress him.
Renshou Palace is far east of the Housan Palace and is the city within the Forbidden City. Today we see the large area of Ningshou Palace and Qianlong Garden built in the Qing Dynasty.
During the Ming Dynasty, there were only a few sparse palaces here, which were used for the retirement of the queen mother and concubines.
In the Ming Dynasty, this place was mainly used as the palace area where the Queen Mother lived.
At that time, this area was relatively empty, and there were only a few palaces built for the queen mother and concubines to provide for their retirement: Hall No. 1 (the specific name of the palace is unclear), Renshou Palace, Erluan Palace, and Jiefeng Palace.
The empresses and concubines who lived here successively during the Ming Dynasty, the more famous ones include: Empress Dowager Zhou during the Chenghua period, Concubine Zheng during the Tianqi period (Zheng Guifei, the favorite concubine of Wanli, the biological mother of Prince Fu), Li Xuanshi (the favorite concubine of Emperor Tianqi), and Yi'an in the late Chongzhen period. Queen Zhang (Queen of Tianqi).
Now, living here are the former inner palace boss Zheng Guifei, Tianqi and Chongzhen's adoptive mother Li Xuanshi, and recently Tianqi's queen, Chongzhen's sister-in-law Zhang Yan, has moved in. They are all masters of palace fighting and proven veterans.
After all, Yang Fan was a foreign minister, and it was not appropriate to enter the palace of these widows. He led a team to guard the door, while Xiao Niangpi and Wang Chengen went in to announce the decree. If the Hakka family did not obey the edict and refused to leave, Yang Fan might need to lead the troops in to arrest them. She asked to leave.
There are fifty internal eunuch soldiers beside Madam Feng Sheng, who were specially assigned to her by Tianqi.
This is also the basis for her to run rampant in the inner palace.
Yang Fan and others were waiting outside the palace gate, feeling a little bored. Suddenly, he felt the ring light up. It seemed like I sensed something.
Yang Fan's cell phone lit up. Yang Fan opened it and saw a message from Yao Guang.
Yaoguang: Where are you?
Yang Fan: Inside the Forbidden City, at the gate of Renshou Palace.
Yao Guang: I feel like the ring sensed something just now. Can you go in and have a look?
Yang Fan: It's not easy to go in. That's where the wives of the late emperors lived. Tu Shanyue went in to do some business. I'm waiting at the door. If something unexpected happens, I might have a chance to go in and take a look.
Yaoguang: It depends. If you have a chance, go in and take a look. There seems to be something special there.
After a while, Defu, the young eunuch beside Wang Chengen, hurriedly ran out and shouted: "Yang Qianhu, please bring someone in quickly. Madam Feng Sheng got angry and beat Eunuch Wang Chengen."
Yang Fan was just thinking about how to find a way to get in. He thought he really wanted to sleep, so Keshi handed him a pillow. With a quick wave of his hand, a squadron of soldiers lined up neatly and drove in with a rumble.
Entering the palace gate of Renshou Palace, the inside is very vast, even a little deserted, with a lot of grass growing on the ground.
The young eunuch led Yang Fan and his party through Hall No. 1 and entered the Erluan Palace complex. There are scattered courtyards here, each with a main palace.
There was a noise in the distance.
A woman who still looked very young put her hands on her hips, pointed at Wang Chengen with one hand and scolded: "You are a castrated dog, why do you want me to move? Who do you think you are? If you could go to Xin Wang Mansion to serve you, I would approve it." Yes, you wouldn’t be here today without me.”
Wang Chengen had several bloody scratches on his face, and his clothes were in a mess. He stood there with a sad face, like a stuffed toy that had been ravaged dozens of times.
"Madam, this is His Majesty's will. You are the late Emperor's wet nurse, and it is not suitable for you to continue to serve His Majesty. Besides, His Majesty has grown up and does not need you to breastfeed anymore. It is not suitable for you to live in the palace anymore. .”
This was the first time Yang Fan met Hakka, the legendary woman who dominated the emperor and the harem.
This woman must be in her thirties this year. She looks like she is in her mid-twenties. She is well-maintained and beautiful. She has a very sexy figure and exudes the charm of a mature woman.
This woman is really charming, and I feel a little tempted to look at her. No wonder the late emperor can't live without her. It was very seductive to look at, and before I took a few glances, I felt a soft body approaching me.
"Yang Lang, is Mrs. Fengsheng good-looking?" The little girl's voice was extremely gentle.
"Good-looking, ah, what, I mean there is something good-looking, she's just an old woman."
I felt severe pain in my toes.
