Chapter 329: Shunzhi Empress Xiaohui Qiqige 62
The game is coming soon.
On the first day, there were music and instrument competitions.
On the second day, there were dance and paddling competitions.
On the third day, there were Go, poetry, calligraphy and painting competitions.
On the fourth day, there were equestrian and archery competitions.
On the fifth day, there were polo and martial arts competitions.
Not to mention Shunzhi, even the Empress Dowager was very excited.
Several concubines who were really untalented, physically weak, or pregnant acted as commentators!
The Mongolian concubines shouted with great vigor, and everyone's mood became extremely nervous.
Dong E's voice was soft and gentle, and her writing was brilliant, which made the concubines feel very excited.
Even the ladies who came to watch couldn't help but get excited!
At the end of the competition, everyone casts their votes, and when the results are announced every day, it will be either the Queen Mother or Sydney.
Either it's Xueli herself, or it's Xueli and Shunzhi.
There are glass trophies, gold, silver and bronze medals.
The wife of the Minister of Revenue was busy taking notes.
"Great! The first talent competition has come to a successful conclusion!"
After Xue Li finished speaking, everyone applauded!
And that Wang was indeed good at music.
I composed a magnificent song to end the performance!
The name is "Yong'an".
Xueli specially arranged for someone to record it, clearly indicating that the arranger was Wang Yuesu and the lyricist was Dong E Wanxing.
This move also caused a great shock in everyone's heart.
There are also people who record the games, and all the compliments from the off-field commentators are recorded in the book.
There are also those who record the current scene through painting.
Xueli said that everyone can go and read it when the time comes!
He also suggested that Wang compose a national anthem.
It is suggested that a few people who are good at painting draw for everyone.
So, as soon as the game was over, everyone found some fun again.
Xue Li was satisfied and gave out Best Commentary Award and Best Lyrics Award to the audience.
Shunzhi came quietly and left quietly, without taking away a cloud.
Not a single concubine remembered him.
Two Han concubines in the harem were pregnant, and Xue Li continued with the arrangements as usual.
Then folk activities were also in full swing.
Xue Li encouraged the Queen Mother to go out of the palace to watch the fun!
So, the twins were placed in the Qianqing Palace, and Xue Li went out on behalf of Shunzhi to cheer everyone up!
Yes, and bring Oboi with him!
Shunzhi felt aggrieved and helpless.
Oboi brought his guards to protect Xueli and the Queen Mother out of the palace.
Shunzhi was diligent in reviewing memorials and taking care of his children.
Xue Li looked at the competition organized by the ministers of the Ministry of Revenue. It couldn't be said to be exactly the same as in the palace, but it was not much different.
However, those held by the public are more free and varied, with a wide variety of types.
It also lasts for a long time, so it is quite lively for several months.
The New Year is coming soon.
In the 1657th year of Shunzhi (), Shunzhi issued an edict.
Restrictions were placed on the Eight Banners descendants from participating in the imperial examinations, leaving the limited places for the Han people.
This move was seen as a means to win over the hearts of the people and also reflected Emperor Shunzhi's determination to deepen the sinicization. He believed that if the Qing Dynasty wanted to maintain long-term stability, it must rely on the Han people.
After the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, it continued to use the Ming Dynasty's imperial examination system.
In the summer of the 14th year of Shunzhi, the Qing Dynasty held the Dingqiu Township Examination.
Since the imperial examination was an important way for scholars to realize their dream of becoming an official, the competition was extremely fierce.
There were more than 206 candidates taking the exam, but only were admitted in the end, which is an extremely low admission rate.
This was also the year when the imperial examination fraud broke out in history.
Examiners Li Zhenye and Zhang Wopu and others accepted bribes and used their power to provide convenience for candidates.
They do this by "passing notes", where candidates hand over notes with specific words on them to examiners in advance, and examiners will admit candidates based on these words when marking the papers.
Xue Li arranged for someone to expose the matter in advance.
Those two rotten apples were beheaded and their property was confiscated.
Shunzhi was extremely busy, constantly strengthening the supervision and regulation of the imperial examinations.
Xue Li vaccinated the two little ones against cowpox and fed them various pills.
There was a new princess and a new prince in the harem.
Xue Li continued to raise their positions and assess the wet nurses every now and then.
Dong E's body became increasingly weak, but her spirit was surprisingly good.
Collaborated with several Han concubines to compose music and write inscriptions.
It is also a morale-boosting war song, "The flames of war burn our ambitions, and we march forward courageously."
It is another wonderful song of blessing, "Under the Sky".
It was the national anthem "Ode to the Qing Dynasty" that Xueli sang early in the morning.
There is also the song "The Steed" which is about the equestrian competition held by Mongolian concubines.
Not to mention other musical scores, which combine different styles of Han, Manchu and Mongolian.
The styles are very different and sound fascinating.
Xue Li arranged for people to compile it into a book, and had it spread outside the palace.
Shunzhi never thought there was anything wrong with his concubines.
The problem is with the queen, she has no manners when it comes to eating, drinking and having fun.
Xue Li ignored him!
Shunzhi himself also felt that since he had a child, the Queen would no longer force herself on him.
He was somewhat unhappy.
It's his business if he's unhappy, but it's not okay if others despise him.
So, for a few days, Shunzhi went to Kunning Palace every day.
Xue Li was too lazy to pay attention to him at first.
But then I thought again, isn't this a ready-made person to take care of the child?
And I don’t know if it’s because of the pills or something else, but Jingrong looks like a “male or female” at a young age.
Day after day the little head turns around and examines the world!
Jinghua was chewing on her feet and enjoying the sweet smell, and Xueli was so enthusiastic that she drew a picture of it for her.
Who else but her would dare to record this dark history for them? !
You can tell at first glance that she is my biological mother.
By the way, I also drew the scene where Jingrong bit Jinghua's face while sleeping.
Xueli's daily fun, apart from kissing the little beauties, is recording their growth trajectories and playing with Jingrong when she has nothing to do.
Every time Jingrong was drawing, he would look at it very seriously. He would grab the drawing halfway through, and then put it under his buttocks, or tear it up...
Xueli was so angry that she bit him, but the little guy just frowned and didn't cry.
He just turned his butt towards Xue Li and ignored her for several days.
Xue Li always felt that he was a little too smart. After all, compared to him, Jing Hua was like a little fool.
When I smile, my gums turn pink...
But this is a normal kid...
Unfortunately, the system can't help.
So Xueli continued as usual, just waiting to catch the little guy's tail.
At this moment, Xueli smiled softly and coaxed Shunzhi to take a nap.
Then Xue Li took the concubines to take a boat ride, pick lotus flowers and go fishing.
Come and have some barbecue.
Shunzhi was quite happy when he woke up and saw two fat babies.
But when asked again, the Queen went to judge the case for the concubine and did not ask any more questions.
He thinks he is extremely capable and has great ambitions.
But he couldn't do anything about women's jealousy.
Only after doing this a few times did he realize that his good queen was holding his beloved concubine in her arms while going boating, visiting the garden, and appreciating the flowers!
He works so hard to handle government affairs!
Fortunately, the two servants did a good job.
Aobai and Wu Liangfu each held one and teased him!
