The Secret Behind the Curtains of Yongfu Palace in 1642

[Late Ming Dynasty and Early Qing Dynasty] [Unofficial History of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties - Hongxue] [Hong Chengchou and Xiaozhuang] [The Mystery of the Bloodline in the Early Qing Dynasty] [Huang Taiji and the Mystery of the Bloodline of the Three Generations of Shunzhi and Kangxi] In the late autumn of 1642, in the palace of Shengjing, an undercurrent hidden in history was brewing. When Hong Chengchou was captured, Huang Taiji persuaded him to surrender at all costs, even acquiescing to his beloved concubine Xiaozhuang to go to prison alone late at night. Liu Ruoyi, a 16-year-old maid, is responsible for the bloody family feud in Liaodong massacre, and is forced to become the interpreter in this conspiracy. She was proficient in Chinese, Manchu and Mongolian, and could glimpse the secret emotions between concubines and ministers that went beyond persuading them to surrender, but in the late night sighs and choked sobs, she smelled a hint of ominousness. Under the palace wall, six pairs of eyes stared quietly: The old eunuch caught a glimpse of a blood-stained silk handkerchief while sweeping, the guard noticed that the prison was extremely tightly guarded, the Ministry of Internal Affairs wrote in the accounts that there was something strange about infertility but miscarriage, the imperial chef was ordered to cook Fujian local food, the imperial doctor's pulse was obviously happy, but he could only write "spleen and stomach disharmony"... Rumors spread like wildfire, pointing to the "dragon fetus" that should not exist in Yongfu Palace. When the word "Hong" engraved on the jade ring emerges, when the late-night bath soup is mixed with herbs that promote blood circulation and remove blood clots, when Prince Rui's spy sneaks into the palace - all the clues are intertwined into a web, pointing to a shocking truth. There are no secrets in the palace, and every lie is waiting to be exposed. And those who peek into the secret have already become pawns in the game.
