Happy life in the world of film and television

Chapter 1324: Story of Yanxi Palace - Wei Yingluo, Chen Wanyin and Bai Ruiji

"It's him?"

Jiang Chen's eyes fixed when he saw the person approaching Ji Muxue.

Because this person is none other than Aisin-Gioro Jingxuan.

A character in "A Fallen City".

In the play, he is the cousin of Emperor Kangxi, and his love is the biggest source of Meili's ups and downs, misery, and worries in this life. Without him, Meili might not have such a rough fate; when he met Meili who had just come out of the cold palace, his high-handed admiration was broken by this woman who had seen through the world.

"It's actually him?"

"It seems that because of the plot arrangement of "The Fallen City", Jingxuan is much younger now."

"But it doesn't matter."

"After all, it's not a problem that Kangxi's cousin is young. After all, Kangxi can still have children in the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi."

"For men, as long as they are able and women are able to give birth, they can give birth at any time."

Jiang Chen looked at Jingxuan.

In Jiang Chen's opinion, everything that happened to Jingxuan in the play was his own fault.

"However, in this world, there is no need for Jingxuan and Meili's love story to happen."

“Meili, as long as you don’t see Jingxuan now, you won’t fall in love at first sight.”

"After the Plum Blossom Internal Guard Training Card training, Meili and Jingxuan will be from two different worlds."

Jiang Chen thought while staring at Jingxuan and Ji Muxue.

What Jiang Chen didn't expect was that Ji Muxue followed Jingxuan away.

"What does Jingxuan want to do with Ji Muxue?"

"Ji Muxue in the drama was used by Yinsi. Does Jingxuan also want to..."

There was a flash of coldness in Jiang Chen's eyes.

The foundation of the Qing Dynasty was the Eight Banners.

The second is the Aisin-Gioro family.

The Aisin-Gioro family was still a small family, consisting of Aisin-Gioro Nurhaci's six uncles and their 22 sons.

From the establishment of the Later Jin Dynasty by Nurhaci to the demise of the Qing Dynasty by the last emperor Aixinjueluo Puyi, there were 11 generations and 12 emperors. During these nearly three centuries, the emperors of the Later Jin Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty had many concubines, and their descendants also had concubines far more than ordinary people, so the descendants of the Aixinjueluo family multiplied very rapidly.

Historically, before the Later Jin Dynasty entered the Pass, during the second generation Aisin-Gioro Huang Taiji, there were about 100 members of the royal family; during the third generation Shunzhi, there were 419 members of the royal family; during the fourth generation Kangxi, there were about 490 members of the royal family; and during the fifth generation Yongzheng, there were more than 1000 members of the royal family.

In this world where film and television merge, in the Qing mainland, there are already more than 2,000 members of the Aisin-Gioro family.

This cannot be compared with the 300,000 or 400,000 people of Aisin-Gioro descent who were destroyed in the Qing Dynasty in history, but because it is a fusion of the world of film and television, it is much more than the Kangxi period in history.

These people control the top resources in the Qing mainland.

Although Jiang Chen could completely crush them with force, killing them would only cause unrest in the Qing Continent, and all kinds of demons and monsters would come out to stir up trouble.

Therefore, Jiang Chen chose to continue to impersonate Yinzhen and use the advantages of his identity to divide and disintegrate.

Previously, whether it was the anti-Qing and pro-Ming forces such as the Tiandihui attacking the palace, or the assassination of Qiu Shou, there were always people from the Aisin-Gioro family behind them.

But yes.

In the Qing mainland, there are so many forces against the Qing Dynasty and to restore the Ming Dynasty. It would be impossible if there were no thieves behind the scenes who were supporting themselves.

After all, are forces like the Tiandihui really against the Qing Dynasty and to restore the Ming Dynasty?

No.

They are just pursuing their own interests.

According to the investigation of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, behind the Tiandihui and other forces there were high-level supporters of the Qing Dynasty.

This is one of the reasons why Jiang Chen did not wipe out the Tiandihui and other anti-Qing and pro-Ming forces.

Jiang Chen supported the talent show in order to build relationships with various families in the Qing mainland.

Marriage is the best means to build relationships.

Although people like Ruolan knew that his identity was fake, after they received benefits from him, it would also affect their families.

"It seems that Jingxuan is going to arrange for the Royal Guards to keep an eye on us."

Jiang Chen remembered.

Jingxuan in the play is both civil and military, and is Kangxi's confidant.

If Kangxi wanted to fight back, Jingxuan might be his confidant.

"Your Highness."

At this moment, a voice came from the side.

"Ok?"

Jiang Chen turned around and saw Yu Daqi.

Yu Daqi in "The Great Purge".

"Yu Daqi?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Your Highness..." Yu Daqi was about to say something when he was interrupted by Jiang Chen: "Call me Young Master Jiang."

"Mr. Jiang?" Yu Daqi was slightly stunned, then bowed: "Mr. Jiang."

"Yu Daqi, why are you here?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Let me come out and take a look." Yu Daqi said.

"Then let's go for a walk together?" Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Yu Daqi responded.

Jiang Chen walked forward with Yu Daqi.

As they walked, Jiang Chen started chatting with Yu Daqi.

Yu Daqi is a cunning villain in the play, but for Jiang Chen, as long as he doesn't touch his bottom line, it's fine.

Half an hour later.

"Your Highness...Mr. Jiang, I have a house here. It's getting late now. Shall we go in and sit for a while?" Yu Daqi said.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded.

Your Highness, Yu Daqi brought Jiang Chen into the house.

"This is Master Jiang."

Yu Daqi waved his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang." Wei Qiquan walked over.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned when he saw Wei Qiquan.

Wei Qiquan is the heroine in "The Great Purge".

Jiang Chen had met him last time and signed in.

"Mr. Jiang, this is Wei Qiquan." Yu Daqi saw Jiang Chen looking at Wei Qiquan last time, so he thought Jiang Chen was interested in Wei Qiquan. So he used his connections to arrange Wei Qiquan here.

"Wei Qiquan." Jiang Chen looked at Wei Qiquan and said, "Yu Daqi, is this your woman?"

"Mr. Jiang, you are joking. This is a maid in the mansion." Yu Daqi said.

"Maid?" Jiang Chen's eyes flashed.

"Yes, it's the maid. She will live here from now on. If Mr. Jiang likes it, he can come here and take a look." Yu Daqi said.

Jiang Chen looked at Yu Daqi.

Yu Daqi's hint is already obvious.

"Mr. Jiang..." Yu Daqi looked at Jiang Chen eagerly.

"Okay, I want this yard." Jiang Chen said.

"This will be Young Master Jiang's from now on." Yu Daqi said quickly.

"Hahaha." Jiang Chen laughed.

At this moment, Jiang Chen finally knew what it felt like to accept a woman given to him by someone else.

After a while, Jiang Chen and Yu Daqi left the yard.

"Yu Daqi, keep this matter confidential." After leaving the yard, Jiang Chen patted Yu Daqi on the shoulder.

"Mr. Jiang, please rest assured." Yu Daqi said quickly.

Jiang Chen laughed loudly and left quickly.

"Success."

Yu Daqi seemed to see a smooth road to promotion and wealth.

Although he was also somewhat interested in Wei Qiquan.

But compared to getting promoted and making money, Wei Qiquan is nothing.

……

On the other side, Jiang Chen came to the Old Summer Palace.

Well, since the Eastern Palace was too small to accommodate him, Jiang Chen moved into the Old Summer Palace.

However, what Jiang Chen did not expect was that when he first entered the Old Summer Palace, he saw the beautiful girls sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"These beauties are pretty good."

Jiang Chen looked intently.

Almost at the same time, the system prompt sounded.

"Sign in."

Jiang Chen thought silently in his heart.

[Congratulations to the host, you have signed in successfully and obtained ten King Breaking Crossbows. ]

[Congratulations to the host, you have signed in successfully and obtained ten griffins. ]

[Congratulations to the host, you signed in successfully and received ten thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants. 】

"Ten crossbows to break the king?"

"This is the tenth time I signed in and got it."

According to the system introduction, the Po Wang Crossbow is a weapon specially used against warriors, just like the Po Wu Crossbow and Po Shen Crossbow. It not only has the effect of breaking armor, but can also penetrate the body of a warrior. The difference is that the Po Wang Crossbow is a crossbow specially prepared for warriors in the Wu Wang realm. When it is activated, at least four martial arts masters above the Grandmaster level need to accumulate power together and activate their internal force before they can string the bow and release the arrow.

Just like the God-Breaking Crossbow and the Martial Arts-Breaking Crossbow, the reason why the King-Breaking Crossbow can deal with martial artists at the Martial King level is because of the internal force, formation, and machinery. Under the remote control of special devices, the three elements gradually approach perfection, and the internal force originally transmitted to the King-Breaking Crossbow is amplified through formations and machinery, achieving the power to penetrate martial artists at the Martial King level!

A King-Breaking Crossbow can kill a warrior in the early stage of the Martial King realm!

Ten King-Breaking Crossbows would destroy even the strongest Martial King if he was caught off guard!

"To deal with the King-Breaking Crossbow at the Martial King level?"

"This sign-in reward is great."

"For the Jiang family now, the more King-Breaking Crossbows the better."

"Ten King-Breaking Crossbows matched with a thousand Ten Thousand Year Old Black Gold Arrows."

"It's quite a lot."

"Ten griffins?"

"This is the eighth time I've signed in and received ten griffins."

According to the system introduction, this griffin is the griffin in "Fights Break Sphere", a fourth-level magical beast.

Griffins have sunny plumage and fur. Their lion-like hindquarters are covered in yellow-brown fur, and their eagle-like head and forelimbs are covered in golden eagle feathers, but they may also be creamy white with crimson spots. Their head and wing feathers may be blue or green, their chest feathers are vermilion, and their eagle-like beaks and feet may range from transparent yellow to brilliant gold, with black claws.

Because of its large weight, the Griffin cannot turn and circle as lightly as a bird, but it can still perform quite a lot of aerial tricks without a rider. It can fly in any weather and has an instinct to sense weather changes. One of the reasons why the Griffin is difficult to tame is that it has a strong confidence in its ability in the air and will not accept unreasonable orders from its rider.

At the same time, the griffin has superb hunting skills. With its speed, agility, and natural claws, the sight of a griffin swooping down from the air to prey is quite astonishing.

"The fourth-level magical beast, the Griffin, possesses the strength of a fighting spirit."

"This means that the Griffin has the strength of a Martial Emperor."

"This is an incredible treasure."

Although Jiang Chen already has a puppet at the Martial God level, the more Martial Emperor level griffins the better.

"The sign-in reward this time is good."

"There are now a total of eighty griffins, but unfortunately the Jiang family army's air force has not yet been confirmed."

"The Griffin Beast is very powerful. If you want to become its master, you must also be very powerful. And now I am the only one in the Jiang family who is at the Martial Emperor level."

“It seems like this is a long way to go.”

"Ten thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants?"

"That's pretty good."

Jiang Chen was very satisfied.

Previously, I signed in from Tang Guoguo, Yu Qingluo and others and got ten thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants. Then, when I signed in to three hundred and twenty female protagonists in a row and was promoted to the Celestial Clan, I got ten thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants as a special reward. This is the ninth time I have received ten thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants.

Seventy-three thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants have been used up during this period. Although there are still more than 900 thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plants in the system space, the storage capacity is not much.

"Among the ten thousand year old medicinal herbs that have been signed in, the reserve of ten thousand year old Polygonum multiflorum is the least."

“I just don’t know if I can sign more in the future.”

"Even if the Jiang Family Medicine Garden exists, there must still be sign-in rewards."

At this moment, Jiang Chen looked at the signing hostess.

Wei Yingluo, a character in "Story of Yanxi Palace".

In the play, she is Concubine Ling, Empress Xiaoyichun. She is upright and quick-witted. In order to investigate the cause of her sister Yingning's death, she sneaked into the Forbidden City as a maid. She has been using Fu Heng to take revenge, but she didn't expect to develop feelings for him. With the help and guidance of Empress Xiaoxianchun, Wei Yingluo decided to put aside her grudges and serve Empress Xiaoxianchun. After Empress Xiaoxianchun died, Wei Yingluo took her place to accompany Emperor Qianlong and assisted him in being a wise ruler. Wei Yingluo fulfilled her promise to Empress Xiaoxianchun with her life.

Chen Wanyin, a character in "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace".

In the drama, she is Consort Wan, the daughter of Chen Yanzhang, a commoner. She is not favored and is taciturn, good at Chinese painting, and does not fight for favors on the surface. In fact, she longs for favors, but she is powerless. Although she has a good reputation for keeping to herself, she is actually inferior in her heart and often draws portraits of Qianlong to comfort herself. Later, she was used by Wei Yanwan to suppress Ruyi. In the novel version, she and Hailan overthrew Wei Yanwan, who was already a royal concubine, but it was deleted in the TV version, and she became a background board for others all her life.

Bai Ruiji, a character in "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace".

In the play, she is Meipin (Yipin), the daughter of Bai Shicai, a commoner. She is the first chess piece of the Queen Mother. She was born as a pipa player in the Southern Palace. She has a pretty face, sharp tongue and single-minded work. She was ordered by the Queen Mother to disturb the harem. In the early stage, she unscrupulously provoked trouble in the harem and dared to directly contradict the Imperial Concubine. After she became pregnant, she was secretly harmed by Jin Yuyan and Gao Xiyue to give birth to an abnormal fetus, but she thought it was Langya's doing. After Langya died, she thought her life was perfect, but before her death, she was told by Ruyi that she had hated the wrong person and avenged the wrong person all her life, and she died by drinking poisoned wine.

"Wei Yingluo?"

"I didn't expect she would be among the show girls."

In the play, Wei Yingluo entered the palace alone to avenge her sister Wei Yingning. From Aunt Fang, Yingluo learned that her sister's death was not that simple, so she started to investigate from the lost jade pendant, and once thought that Fu Heng was the man who defiled her sister. Later, Wei Yingluo's diligence and thriftiness in deer tail wool thread won the queen's praise, and she even ordered people to reward the embroidery room. Wei Yingluo took the initiative to confess to the queen that the peacock feather thread was lost and that she used the emperor's gift of Dongfeng to avoid punishment. Because of her cleverness, she was transferred to Changchun Palace and became the most trusted maid around the queen.

Wei Yingluo knew that Concubine Yu was the real murderer of her sister. Two days later, the capital would have a long-awaited heavy rain, and there would be thunder and lightning that had not been seen for a hundred years. So on the night of the thunder and lightning, she went to Shoukang Palace to meet Concubine Yu and exposed the evil deeds of Concubine Yu who killed her sister in front of the palace maids and eunuchs. Yingluo used a thunderstorm and a bamboo curtain with silver needles pinned on it to create a scene of heavenly punishment, and was punished by the emperor. The queen took the lead and sent Wei Yingluo to the Xinzheku on other charges, saving her life.

After Wei Yingluo entered the Xinzheku, she had to do all the hard and tiring work. Later, Wei Yingluo ran into the emperor while cleaning the charcoal ash. After learning that the queen had been bedridden for a long time, she asked the emperor to let her return to Changchun Palace to serve the queen. Between telling Fu Cha that Fu Heng had never truly loved her and walking through the first winter snow in the Forbidden City for twelve hours, Wei Yingluo chose the latter to accept the punishment. The emperor intended to make her his concubine, and Wei Yingluo used a clever trick to change the emperor's mind. Later, Wei Yingluo bowed three times and kowtowed nine times all the way from the Qianqing Palace to the Changchun Palace, and successfully returned to the queen.

Due to the death of Empress Fucha, the Emperor sent Wei Yingluo to the Old Summer Palace to mourn for Empress Fucha. After learning that there was a hidden story behind Empress Fucha's death and that Mingyu was abused by Concubine Chun, Wei Yingluo was determined to return to the palace to avenge the Empress and her sisters. When the Empress Dowager was visiting the Old Summer Palace, Wei Yingluo approached the Empress Dowager on purpose. On the occasion of the Empress Dowager's birthday, she cleverly used carp to spell out the word "longevity", copied scriptures in blood, and performed well at the banquet. Because the Empress Dowager liked Wei Yingluo very much, she asked the Emperor to make Wei Yingluo a noble lady. Yingluo successfully returned to the palace and became the Emperor's concubine under the Empress Dowager's suggestion.

After returning to the palace, Wei Yingluo joined forces with Mingyu to overthrow Concubine Chun, poisoned Erqing, and successfully avenged Empress Fucha. At first, she was not favored, so she deliberately designed many programs to attract the emperor's attention. For example, flying kites, flying Kongming lanterns, etc., to express her feelings to the emperor. She knew that the emperor would go to the Empress Dowager's palace to pay respects every day, so she volunteered to read scriptures for the Empress Dowager to get the emperor accustomed to her existence. When the time was right, she deliberately did not go to the Empress Dowager's palace, so that the emperor would come to her in person, and thus catch the emperor's heart by playing hard to get. In a very short period of time, she quickly upgraded to the head of the group of concubines, and was favored by the six palaces, and gained the greatest power in the harem. Step by step, she rose from Wei Guiren, Lingpin, Lingfei, Ling Guifei to Linghuang Guifei. The finale successfully made Qianlong obsessed with herself, and let his own son Jiaqing take over as the next emperor of the Qing Dynasty. His status was also extremely honorable in the end, and he was named Empress Xiaoyichun.

"Wei Yingluo is the Concubine Ling in My Fair Princess."

"However, in this world of film and television fusion, Wei Yingluo's plot has also changed." "By the way, Wei Yanwan and Wei Yingluo have the same historical prototype."

"I don't know what the relationship between Wei Yanwan and Wei Yingluo is."

"Chen Wanyin?"

"I didn't expect it to be her."

In the play, when Chen Wanyin was in Hongli's residence, she was a maid who served Hongli, and she was only a princess in the palace with a low status.

Later, after Hongli ascended the throne, Chen Wanyin entered the palace and agreed to marry him. She was of Han ethnicity, and her position was lower than that of Keliyete Hailan (Hai Changzai), who was born as an embroiderer. She had been out of favor for six years. She lived in Zhongcui Palace with Su Lujun.

Although Chen Wanyin loves the emperor deeply, she is a taciturn person who is not good at expressing her feelings, which makes the emperor feel that she is dispensable. Despite this, she is kind-hearted and once defended Ruyi together with Hailan and Lujun when Ruyi was framed by Aruo for killing the prince. When Concubine Chun Su Lujun was promoted to Concubine Chun, Chen Wanyin also benefited from it. The emperor was grateful for not paying attention to her for a long time, and promoted her to Wan Changzai by the way. Chen Wanyin was grateful.

It can be said that in the early stage of "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", she was basically completely separated from the palace fighting and the main storyline. She often loved to secretly look at the favored concubines from afar (such as Gao Xiyue, Bai Ruiji and Ruyi). She was trying to find out the reason why the emperor stayed for a long time among the favorite concubines, but to no avail.

When Wei Yanwan was a maid and was publicly humiliated by Jin Yuyan, she was the only one who spoke up for Wei Yanwan. When the emperor got scabies, she had no plan and could only let it go. She was not as good as Yihuan and Langya who did it themselves.

At that time, Fucha Langya had not yet died, but the emperor had almost forgotten about her.

Later, Fucha Langya passed away. When the six palaces were conferred titles, she and Lu Muping were promoted to noble ladies because they had served the emperor for many years without any faults and had no merits but hard work. Later, they were promoted to concubines and obtained the position of the head of the first palace. She was happy that the emperor had not forgotten her, and she did not forget to continue painting the emperor's face (since she entered the palace, she was obsessed with the emperor and often painted him to relieve her longing for him).

In the incident of Concubine Jia's ears piercing, he joined forces with Wei Yanwan, Yehenara Yihan, Keliyete Hailan, and Su Lujun to fight against Jin Yuyan.

After that, Chen Wanyin stayed in the position of Wanpin for more than 40 years. During such a long period of time, she did nothing and was completely forgotten by the emperor and even other concubines. However, it was true that she was weak and could not fight, so she successfully avoided all the palace fights in the middle period. She just spent her days in peace with Ruyi and Lujun.

On the eve of the selection of the noble lady Ke Baiergas and others to enter the palace, the maid Shunxin complained that she was completely forgotten by the emperor as soon as the newcomers entered the palace. She didn't care much, but just kept drawing the emperor's face, pretending that she was face to face with the emperor.

After Wei Yanwan regained favor due to the Mulan Hot Spring incident, she was sad and even her maid Shunxin disliked her. However, she comforted herself and forced herself to smile and continued to paint. When Ruyi gave birth to the 13th Prince, she and Su Lujun begged Ruyi to give birth to the child safely.

She was so obedient that even when her maid Shunxin was wronged by Madam Wei, she was protected by Wei Yanwan. After Han Xiangjian entered the palace, the Third Prince just kept complaining, which made Su Lujun anxious and angry. Even she, who was gentle in nature, couldn't help but get angry at the Third Prince. Afterwards, the Third Prince was blamed for advising Xiangjian. Concubine Chun Su Lujun pleaded for her son, but was also condemned by the emperor for being ill. She had no choice but to take good care of her. After Su Lujun passed away, she was the only one in the palace who cried for Su Lujun.

Later, when Wei Yanwan was a concubine, she instructed her to compile and copy the emperor's poems that he had written for many years to mourn Empress Xiaoxian so that the emperor would miss the old times, which made the emperor more and more indifferent to Ruyi; Wanpin just thought that she had been gone for such a long time and was about to become invisible, so she didn't think too much, just wanted to attract the emperor's attention. This mentality was seen through by Wei Yanwan, who was already a concubine. Wei Yanwan grasped that Chen Wanyin's pillar Su Lujun was gone, and Chen Wanyin was an honest person. Suddenly, she was asked to do this method that would help her gain favor, and Chen Wanyin would definitely do it. As expected, although Chen Wanyin had a brief inner entanglement, in the face of huge interests, Chen Wanyin still did it according to Wei Yanwan's method.

After the storm spread, Chen Wanyin realized that she was used by Wei Yanwan, so she rushed to apologize to Ruyi. Ruyi also knew that she was not a fighter at all, and it was impossible for her to frame Ruyi herself. It was obviously Concubine Wei Yanwan who was behind the plot. Therefore, Ruyi forgave her.

Later, after the fall of Imperial Noble Consort Wei Yanwan, she went to see Ruyi with other concubines out of guilt, but Ruyi refused. After that, she lived a peaceful life in the palace, enjoying her old age with Consort Qing Lu Muping, Concubine Fang Chen and others.

"The drama says that Chen Wanyin has always loved the emperor."

"But this is obviously impossible."

"Chen Wanyin has no choice."

"Since entering the palace, I have never seen anyone looking for other men like Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang."

"Honest and loyal, content with his duties, not quarrelsome with others, gentle and kind, never forming cliques with others, just keeping to himself. Deeply in love with the emperor."

"There is no man who doesn't like a woman like Chen Wanyin."

"It's a pity that Qianlong is just an ordinary man, it's impossible for him to treat everyone equally."

"Bai Ruiji?"

"I didn't expect her to come too."

Bai Ruiji in the play was born in Suzhou Prefecture and was good at playing the yueqin. Later, she changed to learning the pipa because the late Emperor Yongzheng liked Geng Yuebin's pipa. She was selected by Empress Dowager Zhen Huan and trained to be a pipa player who met the image of Emperor Qianlong. When Emperor Qianlong and Gao Xiyue were enjoying a pipa piece, she deliberately played the wrong melody and successfully attracted Emperor Qianlong's attention. She was immediately favored and named a concubine, becoming the first person to be taken into the harem after Emperor Qianlong ascended the throne.

Although Bai Ruiji was born in a humble family, she relied on the Empress Dowager as her backer. As soon as she entered the palace, she was eloquent and arrogant. She often competed with Gao Xiyue, who also played the pipa. Empress Langya sent people to investigate Bai Ruiji's background and found out that Bai Ruiji was born in the 59th year of Kangxi's reign. In the 8th year of Yongzheng's reign, she was bought by Ruyi's mother's family and sent to the Southern Mansion to learn pipa. Langya therefore suspected that Bai Ruiji was a member of Ruyi's faction, and felt that Ruyi was scheming.

When the new concubine was meeting the queen, Bai Ruiji relied on the emperor's favor and ridiculed Concubine Hui with ambiguous words. After leaving the queen's Changchun Palace, Gao Xiyue, who had nowhere to vent her anger, slapped her in the face, causing her cheek to ulcerate. When Bai Ruiji and Gao Xiyue were in a mess, Langya took the opportunity to intervene, but did not control Bai Ruiji's usurpation of power, and even blamed Concubine Hui for not respecting herself enough, and ordered Gao Xiyue to concentrate on dealing with Ruyi, the "mastermind behind the scenes."

The Queen's lack of restraint made Bai Ruiji even more arrogant in the harem, and she was promoted to a concubine. When recovering from her injuries, Bai Ruiji was instructed by the Queen Mother to use Baihuadan to aggravate her facial wounds. Only Ruyi and Queen Langya had handled this Baihuadan, and the two were therefore suspected by the Emperor. In fact, Bai Ruiji gave herself Baihuadan, and she used a miraculous medicine that would aggravate her condition at first but would fully recover later. This plan made Qianlong begin to distrust the abilities of Ruyi and Langya, and the Queen Mother behind Bai Ruiji took the opportunity to deprive Langya of her harem power and interfere in palace affairs; and Bai Ruiji herself was completely cleared of the suspicion of "colluding with Ruyi".

Soon, Bai Ruiji became the first pregnant person in the palace, and was given the title of "Mei" and promoted to noble lady. In a conversation with Su Lujun and Jin Yuyan, Jin Yuyan led Su Lujun to say "eating more fish and shrimp is good for the fetus, because that was what happened when I was pregnant", which made Bai Ruiji very convinced. From then on, she ate fish and shrimp with everything she drank and ate, trying her best to give birth to a smart and strong child.

When Bai Ruiji was pregnant with the dragon child, her sedan chair hit Concubine Hui Gao Xiyue again. Gao Xiyue was very angry. Under the instigation of the Queen's maid Su Lian, Concubine Hui couldn't help but put a trace of mercury in Bai Ruiji's seafood, intending to make the child stupid. Jin Yuyan secretly increased the dose of mercury. Her son was born deformed. In order to save the royal family's face, Qianlong restricted those who knew about it from speaking out, and executed the child. Bai Ruiji did not see her child.

Bai Ruiji was therefore confined to Yuhua Pavilion, but the Empress Dowager ordered the Empress to suggest that Qianlong promote her to the rank of Meipin in order to compensate her for the pain of losing her son.

Later, Yipin also became pregnant, but was quickly miscarried by Jin Yuyan. Jin Yuyan herself became pregnant successfully and was promoted to Jiapin. For this reason, the Queen Mother also made another plan and sent the second chess piece Lu Muping into the palace to get a permanent position. However, Lu Muping did not receive Qianlong's favor and her work efficiency was far less than Bai Ruiji. Bai Ruiji left Yuhua Pavilion, and Ruyi was framed by her maid A Ruo and became the culprit of murdering the heir.

After Yehenala Yihuan entered the palace, Bai Ruiji and Lu Muping both fell out of favor due to Yihuan's stunning beauty and talent. Lu Muping then faded out of Qianlong's sight, but Bai Ruiji did not believe that A Ruo had no backers, so she had been secretly tracking down the real culprit. Later, Jiapin was promoted to Jiafei because of her second pregnancy, and began to abuse Wei Yanwan, who looked similar to Ruyi, in order to please Fucha Langya, who was anxious about Ruyi's release from the cold palace.

After Ruyi left the cold palace, the truth gradually emerged. A Ruo, who had wronged Ruyi, was subjected to cat torture and armor stripping. Bai Ruiji thought A Ruo was the culprit and went to Yikun Palace to whip A Ruo. After Hui Guifei Gao Xiyue died, her maid Mo Xin found Bai Ruiji through Yu Yan and Zhen Shu, and told her that the real culprit was Empress Fucha Langya, which made Bai Ruiji start revenge again. Mo Xin found her and gave Bai Ruiji the clothes infected with smallpox bacteria. Bai Ruiji exchanged her clothes with the clothes of Chun Niang, the wet nurse of the Seventh Prince. Chun Niang passed the virus she was infected to the Seventh Prince, and the Seventh Prince died young.

During Qianlong's first southern tour, Bai Ruiji, with the help of Jin Yuyan, ordered people to smear tung oil on the boat. On the boat, she deliberately talked loudly about Langya, saying that the death of the Queen's son was "repaying in kind". When Langya was in a trance and distress on the boat, she slipped and fell into the water, causing the Queen to become seriously ill.

After the Queen's death, Concubine Chun was promoted to Imperial Concubine Chun, Ruyi was promoted to Imperial Concubine Xian, and Bai Ruiji was gradually ignored by everyone. Later, when the harem was full of conspiracies, Bai Ruiji was too depressed and had not gotten over the pain of losing her son, so her face was damaged and she looked haggard.

During Qianlong's second southern tour, Bai Ruiji and Lu Muping appeared in a small boat on the West Lake under the introduction of Empress Dowager Zhen Huan. Bai Ruiji played the pipa and Lu Muping sang Yuan opera, but unexpectedly, Concubine Ling Wei Yanwan stole the limelight with the plum dance. Qianlong saw through that Bai and Lu were puppets of the Empress Dowager, and because of the Qi Ru incident, Qianlong promoted Concubine Ling to Concubine Ling in order to anger the Empress Dowager.

Bai Ruiji knew that her beauty was fading and her identity was exposed, so she could no longer be favored by Emperor Qianlong. So she simply traded one thing for another, took the initiative to find Emperor Qianlong, and negotiated with him with her own life in exchange for the wealth and prosperity of her family for the rest of their lives. She was willing to be ordered by Emperor Qianlong. When Jin Yuyan heard that it was Emperor Qianlong who summoned Bai Ruiji, she was afraid that Bai Ruiji would confess everything, so she tried to poison Bai Ruiji with invisible white powder. Ruyi saw her in the process of giving her the drug, and Ruyi went to Bai Ruiji's palace to dissuade her. Bai Ruiji didn't believe it, so she used the silver needle on her hairpin to test the poison, and it was fine. When Bai Ruiji was feeding her parrot, the parrot was poisoned to death, and Bai Ruiji realized how vicious Jin Yuyan was.

For this reason, Bai Ruiji was sentenced to death by the emperor for framing a concubine. Before her death, Ruyi came and Bai Ruiji told Ruyi everything she had done. In return, Ruyi also said that the real murderer was Jin Yuyan.

In the end, Bai Ruiji played the pipa, spitting blood from her mouth, and passed away. Ruyi arranged her funeral and sent her back to her mother's home for burial.

"Zhen Huan in the drama thought of using women to control Hongli because Hongli was not her biological son."

"So, Bai Ruiji became her pawn."

"It's a pity that in the palace, Bai Ruiji is arrogant, outspoken, loves to show off, has a very low self-esteem, and lacks scheming. She is no match for those people at all. She is worse than Chen Wanyin, who at least can live out her days in peace."

"Although Chen Wanyin is not rich and prosperous, she is at least better than Bai Ruiji."

Jiang Chen looked at Wei Yingluo, Chen Wanyin and Bai Ruiji.

Wei Yingluo, Jiang Chen thought of Qian Xixi from the first world and Feng Ting from the third world.

Chen Wanyin, Grace, Jiang Jing, Zheng Shujun, and Yue Fei (Yue Heng) were played by the same actor in the previous life.

Bai Ruiji, Jun Jiuling from the second world, Ye Ningzhi, and Yuan Yuan from the first world were played by the same actor in the previous life.

It can be said that although the three daughters of Wei Yingluo are not stunningly beautiful, they all have extraordinary looks.

"This group of beautiful ladies is pretty good."

"I wonder if there will be any more beauties before I leave the second world."

Jiang Chen was somewhat expectant.

Because it is a fusion of film and television world, these beauties are only seventeen or eighteen years old.

To Jiang Chen, who is actually almost 40 years old, these beauties are quite attractive.

A moment later, Jiang Chen met Rong Yin (Fu Cha Rong Yin, the woman certified by Jiang Chen's Zhusheng clan and Lang Ya's second sister).

"Greetings, Your Highness." Rong Yin bowed.

"No need to be so polite, get up." Jiang Chen walked over.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Rong Yin remembered that etiquette cannot be abolished.

"Rong Yin, let's take a walk." Jiang Chen said.

"Yes." Rong Yin nodded.

At that moment, Jiang Chen walked forward with Rong Yin.

The Old Summer Palace is different from the Eastern Palace.

Big enough and there are plenty of places to go.

In order to facilitate the conversation, Jiang Chen asked the palace maids and eunuchs to leave.

"Your Highness, there are not many palace maids and eunuchs in the Old Summer Palace. Have you ever thought about making them one of our own?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Most of them are already our own people, the others are irrelevant." Jiang Chen had already changed them. After all, his women were trustworthy, and some low-level palace maids and eunuchs did not need to be taken seriously: "After all, with you here, what can they do?"

"Your Highness, in Qing, we seem to be trapped in the palace." Rong Yin said.

"In the Qing Dynasty, power is highly concentrated, so it is difficult to do what you want in the palace." Jiang Chen did not deny it.

The main reason why the harem did not interfere in politics during the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong periods in history was the strict palace system and the emperor's strict control. The palace system of the Qing Dynasty was very strict, and the isolation measures between the harem and the outside world were very strict, and the contact between the harem personnel and the outside world was strictly restricted. For example, palace maids and nannies were strictly prohibited from passing on matters outside the palace to the palace, and the concubines' family members could not enter the palace at will without permission. This isolation system effectively prevented the possibility of the harem interfering in politics.

In addition, the emperor's control over the harem was also very strict. Especially Emperor Yongzheng, he managed the harem very strictly, the harem was peaceful, the power of concubines was strictly limited, and their main responsibilities were to serve the emperor and continue his heirs, rather than participate in political decision-making. This strict control mechanism ensured that the harem would not interfere with the political decisions of the previous dynasty.

In the Qing Dynasty of the second world, although many Qing palace dramas are integrated, the Qing harem was strictly managed because Kangxi was the emperor.

However, Jiang Chen did not destroy it.

If the Qing Dynasty wants to completely control mainland China, those who enter the palace must not interfere in politics.

Otherwise, the families behind the women in the palace would cause trouble.

"Then Your Highness..."

"We can only arrange for other people to do things. The most important thing for you is to study. There are plenty of things you want to do in other worlds." Jiang Chen said.

"Yes, there are many things to learn." Rong Yin did not deny that it was not easy to learn all the knowledge of several worlds.

"Next I will merge those previous mansions and make them our residences outside the palace." Jiang Chen was referring to the Ninth Prince's mansion and the mansions surrounding it. Now that Yinsi and the others are dead, their mansions can be merged.

"Your Highness shouldn't have placed the family teleportation talisman there before." Rong Yin said.

"I didn't think so much about it before." There are many people signing in from Qing Continent, so many people are taken to other worlds. It's hard not to attract attention when so many people are transferred.

But Jiang Chen felt a little regretful.

It would have been better if he had disguised himself as Kangxi before.

Although Kangxi was in his fifties, it was normal for him to find concubines.

"By the way, Rongyin, how is your cultivation going now?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Now..." Rong Yin answered.

A moment later, just when Jiang Chen and Rong Yin came to a pavilion, an eunuch walked over.

"Your Highness, Lord Chen Tingjing requests to see you."

"Chen Tingjing? Got it." Jiang Chen said.

"Your Highness, go and get busy." Rong Yin said.

"it is good."

Jiang Chen nodded, and then whispered in Rong Yin's ear: "Go back and take a shower and wait for me."

"Yes." Rong Yin responded.

Today is her day to serve, and she would still prepare even if Jiang Chen was not there.

Rong Yin was very satisfied with this.

After all, there is no woman who doesn't want to be favored by a man. They only have Jiang Chen. If Jiang Chen turns a blind eye, they will have to stay alone in the empty room.

……

"Your Highness, your servant Chen Tingjing greets you." Chen Tingjing bowed.

"Get up."

Jiang Chen looked at Chen Tingjing.

Chen Tingjing in "Chen Tingjing, a Famous Prime Minister of His Time".

"I didn't expect that he would be the leading actor in a drama."

At this moment, relevant information about Chen Tingjing emerged in Jiang Chen's mind.

Chen Tingjing was very smart in his early years. He liked to read "Zuo Zhuan", "Shangshu" and "Yili" when he was young. When he was nine years old, he wrote a poem "Peony" which amazed the elders. In the 15th year of Shunzhi, he became a Jinshi and was selected as a scholar in the academy. In order to distinguish him from Chen Jing of Tongzhou, Emperor Taizu gave him the name Tingjing. He was successively promoted to the Hanlin Academy as a lecturer and served as a daily lecturer. In the 15th year of Kangxi, he was promoted to the Cabinet Scholar, concurrently the Minister of Rites, served as a lecturer in the Imperial Lecture, and was changed to the Hanlin Academy as the president of the academy and taught scholars. In the 17th year of Kangxi, he entered the South Study.

In this world of film and television fusion, in the 21st year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Chen Tingjing served as the deputy examiner of the imperial examination. At that time, Deputy Chief Censor Yu Guozhu requested to determine the music chapters because southern Yunnan was pacified. The Ministry of Rites and the Hanlin Academy held a meeting, and the suburban altars and ancestral temples should still follow the old practices of the first year of Shunzhi, and the court banquets should be revised. Chen Tingjing drafted fourteen chapters, and the imperial edict was issued to study. In the 23rd year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, he was appointed as the Left Chief Censor and concurrently in charge of the Ministry of Revenue's currency system. He requested to change the official currency to stop private minting, exempt copper taxes and facilitate mining for the people. He determined the court's clothing system and banned extravagance. He carefully selected governors and governors-general, based on their public spirit, love for the people, diligence and integrity. He strictly ordered local governments to disclose the accounts of disaster relief money and grain to prevent corrupt officials from harming the people.

In September of the 25th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, he was transferred to the position of Minister of Works. He and scholar Xu Qianxue presented the "Jian Gu Ji Lan" to Emperor Kangxi, who appreciated their work and made them advisors. He was ordered to compile and edit the "Three Dynasties Sacred Instructions", "Political Instructions", "Strategies", "The Great Qing Unified Records", "The History of Ming Dynasty" and other books. In December of the 26th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, when Zhang Yi was the governor of Huguang, Chen Zizhi, the censor of Shanxi, impeached him for "having been in office for a short time and being corrupt". Zhang Yushu, the Minister of War, took the opportunity to impeach Chen Tingjing, who was a relative of Zhang Yi.

In April of the 27th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Zhang Yi was hanged for "embezzling more than 90,000 taels of silver". Chen Tingjing submitted a memorial to Emperor Kangxi titled "Sincerely Requesting for Grace to Return to My Hometown to Comfort My Ignorance", in which he apologized to the Emperor and begged to return home to observe mourning. In September of the 28th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Gao Shiqi impeached Xu Qianxue. Emperor Kangxi knew that Xu Qianxue and Gao Shiqi were ostentatious, so he sent Xu and Gao out of the capital. In February of the following year, not long after Xu and Gao were forced to leave the capital, Chen Tingjing was appointed as the Left Censor-in-Chief.

In the 42nd year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Chen Tingjing was appointed as the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion and the Minister of Personnel, and was in charge of the lectures on classics. In April of the 44th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi made his fifth southern tour and summoned scholars from the south of the Yangtze River to Hangzhou, Suzhou, and Jiangning for examinations. Chen Tingjing, Grand Secretary Zhang Yushu, and President of the Academy of Sciences Kuixu were ordered to review the papers.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Chen Tingjing stood up.

"Please take a seat." Jiang Chen said.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Chen Tingjing bowed and sat down.

"What does Lord Chen want to see me about?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Your Highness, I am here for the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel." Chen Tingjing took out a memorial.

Jiang Chen asked the eunuch to bring the memorial over.

"Your Highness."

Soon, the eunuch handed the memorial to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen opened the memorial and began to read it.

After a while.

Jiang Chen said, "Master Chen, if I remember correctly, on the 24th day of the first month of the 24th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, you submitted a memorial titled "Please Encourage Honesty and Eliminate Malpractices and Request the Emperor to Discuss and Develop a System for the Administration of Justice"?"

The Memorial to the Emperor on Encouraging Integrity and Eliminating Malpractices and Requesting for Detailed Discussion and Establishment of Regulations points out: "Corruption and integrity are the key to governance; extravagance and frugality are the root of corruption and integrity. If you want to teach people to be honest, you should first teach them to be frugal." This means that extravagance leads to corruption, and frugality can lead to integrity.

"Your Highness, yes." Chen Tingjing replied.

"I still remember that in the same year you also submitted a memorial titled 'A Memorial to the Governor-General on the Failure of Military Funds to the Country' to impeach Wang Jiwen, arguing that he did not have to donate food and fodder during the war, but instead used the treasury silver. After the army returned victoriously, he used the remaining grain to pay the provincial officials with his official salaries. The difference in the amount of silver was as much as 900,000 taels..." Jiang Chen continued.

"Yes." Chen Tingjing didn't quite understand why Jiang Chen said that.

"I wonder if Lord Chen remembers the performance evaluation system of the previous dynasty?" Jiang Chen asked.

"I remember." Chen Tingjing was shocked: "Your Highness wants to use the performance evaluation method?"

"Yes, I think now is the right time." Jiang Chen nodded.

Speaking of the most commendable institutional innovations of the Qing Dynasty, the "Kaocheng Law" is definitely an outstanding representative. The birth of this system began with a discussion in the court in the first year of Yongzheng's reign. At that time, Emperor Yongzheng, who had just ascended the throne, received a unique memorial from a county magistrate named Li Huang in Jiangnan. This inconspicuous official boldly said that the official assessment was too formal, resulting in the rampant phenomenon of lazy and indolent governance. After reading it, Yongzheng nodded repeatedly and immediately ordered the implementation of the "Kaocheng Law" throughout the country.

This kind of "performance evaluation system" is not an ordinary evaluation system. From high-ranking officials such as the governor and the provincial governor to the most basic county magistrate, all officials must conduct a comprehensive performance evaluation every year. The evaluation covers a wide range of content, including tax collection, case trials, public security maintenance, etc., and even small things such as road and bridge construction are included in the evaluation scope.

At the same time, Yongzheng set up a special "Performance Examination Department" in each province, the purpose of which was to verify the performance of officials. Once an official was found to have committed fraud, he would be demoted for minor offenses, and would be dismissed and investigated for serious offenses. This measure hit the key point of official corruption.

When Jiang Chen became the crown prince and rectified the administration of officials, the performance evaluation system was one of the solutions he thought of.

"Your Highness, isn't this a bit too hasty?" Chen Tingjing said.

"I think now is the right time. Lord Chen, go back and get me a memorial about the performance evaluation system." Jiang Chen knew that old ministers like Chen Tingjing were more loyal to Kangxi than him, but he had plenty of ways to deal with Chen Tingjing.

"Yes." Chen Tingjing responded.

"I want to implement the test method in Shuntian Prefecture at the end of this year." Jiang Chen said.

"I will definitely do it." Chen Tingjing said.

"Sir Chen, I heard that you went to see the Emperor a few days ago?" Jiang Chen said.

"Yes." Chen Tingjing said with his head down.

"You are an old minister of the Emperor. It would be good for you to visit the Emperor more often. Go down." Jiang Chen said.

"Yes." Chen Tingjing responded and prepared to leave.

"By the way, Lord Chen, I heard that you have a daughter named Chen Caiwei?" Jiang Chen suddenly asked.

"Your Highness, my daughter's name is Chen Caiwei." Chen Tingjing replied.

"Is she betrothed?" Jiang Chen asked.

"No." Chen Tingjing lowered his head.

Jiang Chen said calmly: "Master Chen, let Chen Caiwei come to see the Crown Princess tomorrow."
