Chapter 10 A Bowl of Poison

"My dear, Concubine Ronggui passed out after hearing the news!"

"Really."

Zhiyu took the tea cup and took a sip. Although his face was expressionless, he felt happy in his heart.

Yinzhen is really good!

Zhiyu is still waiting to see what Ma Jiashi will do when she wakes up.

As a result, I soon heard that after Ma Jia woke up, she went directly to Shou'an Palace.

"Mother, Concubine Ronggui is here!"

"Oh?"

Zhiyu raised his eyebrows and raised a smile on his lips.
"In that case, let's meet!"

She couldn't wait to see Ma Jiashi's depressed face.
"Sister Rong An, how come Sister Rong has time to come to this palace?"

"My sister and I, my sister was the one who spoke out loud yesterday, but now I have reflected a lot after returning home,"

"I brought something specially to my sister today to make amends. Please don't take it to heart."

After Ma Jiashi said this, she bowed deeply and asked the servant behind to present the things.

She is worthy of being one of the four famous concubines in the Kangxi harem, and she is really capable of bending and stretching.
Zhiyu sighed in his heart,

However, she always retaliates when she is angry, and she still defends herself when she is unreasonable.
Now that it makes sense, of course she has to vent her anger well.
"As for my sister, I have forgotten what happened yesterday. I still bother my sister to bring so many things. It's really..."

The corners of Ma Jiashi's smiling mouth were obviously stiff.
"...As long as my sister doesn't dislike it!"

"How could it happen? When the late Emperor was still here, you were one of the four concubines. You had assisted in the palace affairs for many years. You have so many good things, and even if you reveal a little bit about them, they are all good things that we have never seen before."

"My sister's words really offend her. It's just that I have the honor to assist in the palace affairs. If I say good things, I can't compare to Emperor Tong's noble concubine."

"Having said that, it is much better for my sister to have a filial son like Prince Cheng, and to be filial from time to time, than for my sister to have no foundation,"

Zhiyu glanced at the blue sky outside and changed the subject.
"However, I heard that Prince Cheng was ordered by the emperor to return home to think about his mistakes. It was because of the late emperor's filial piety and dishonesty. Is there some misunderstanding in this?"

"you!"

Ma Jiashi couldn't bear it any longer, her eyes were full of anger, and she glared at Zhiyu fiercely,

Zhiyu smiled,
"Why are you looking at your sister like this? Did your sister say the wrong thing?"

Zhiyu said, taking a step forward, staring into Ma Jiashi's eyes, and smiled:

"My sister has no foundation in the palace and is nothing. If anything offends my sister, please bear with me."

Ma Jiashi's chest kept rising and falling,

In a daze, Zhiyu seemed to hear the sound of her teeth grinding.

Worried that Ma Jiashi would become too angry and take action, she quietly took a step back.
Unexpectedly, Ma Jiashi endured it.
"I've been out for a long time, and I'm a little tired, so I'm going back to the palace first!"

Zhiyu looked at Ma Jiashi's angry back, raised the corners of his mouth, and waved his handkerchief.

"Sister walk slowly!"

At the entrance of Shouan Palace,
"My lady..."

Ma Jia's personal maid saw that Ma Jia had been standing at the door of Shou'an Palace for a long time without moving, and couldn't help but shouted worriedly,
"Guarga! Okay, it's really good!"

Ma Jiashi had a gloomy face, looking back and staring at the plaque of Shou'an Palace.

"Does she really think she is the new emperor's favorite concubine? She is so unethical. Let's go to Ningshou Palace!"

Inside Shouan Palace,

Zhiyu knew nothing about this and was still drinking tea happily.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor treats you so well!"

Seeing that his wife just said a few words, Princess Ronggui was so angry that she ran away.

Dong Ju quickly offered a cup of tea and said with a smile on her face.

Zhiyu took the tea cup, raised the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of smiles.

Although he didn't respond, he was extremely happy in his heart.

When the other slaves saw it, they also started to flatter themselves.
"Yes, the emperor just learned about this yesterday, and today he dealt with it, Prince Cheng, to relieve your anger. Even Concubine Ronggui rushed to apologize to you!"

"It can be seen that our empress is the one who is most important to the emperor..."

That said,

Although she has that kind of relationship with Yinzhen,
But on the surface, she is still a noble concubine.

How can you say these words loudly?

Zhiyu couldn't help but frowned,
He put the teacup in his hand on the table and said:
"Okay, the more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes. Are you able to comment on the emperor's affairs?" "That's right, go out and do things. You don't need to wait here."

Dongju also saw that Zhiyu was unhappy and quickly kicked the other slaves out.

He turned around and coaxed Zhiyu again,

"My Lady, why are you angry with these ignorant and ignorant servants..."

Zhiyu nodded, his thoughts drifting away.

To be honest, she was unsure at first.
Although she is about the same age as Yinzhen, she is actually Kangxi's concubine.
Yinzhen also has many women,

Now that he has ascended the throne and become an emperor, there will only be more women, not less.
In her subconscious,
He had always been worried that Yinzhen would care about his reputation and ruthlessly "dispose" her silently.
Although based on the friendship between Yuan Shen and Yinzhen and the help provided by the Guarjia clan,

The probability of this is not high,

But it's not impossible,

Now that I see Yinzhen's attitude, my heart gradually calms down.

Zhiyu is still happy that Yinzhen takes him seriously.

As a result, just after dinner, we were greeted by a strange young eunuch who claimed to be from the Queen Mother's Palace.

"The Queen Mother has summoned the Imperial Concubine to Ningshou Palace."

"But something?"

Zhiyu put down the square handkerchief to cleanse his hands and asked attentively.

"You will know as soon as your Majesty leaves."

The little eunuch bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"Okay, father-in-law, please wait a moment and allow me to change my clothes."

"The Empress Dowager has ordered Rang and the Imperial Concubine to go to Ningshou Palace immediately. The Empress Dowager invites you now!"

Zhiyu frowned,

He secretly gave Dong Ju a look and told her to quietly invite Yinzhen.

Seeing that Dong Ju understood what she meant and exited silently,
Zhiyu shook off the handkerchief and handed his hand to the maid next to him.
"Then let's go!"

Zhiyu originally suspected that the young eunuch was a member of the Ma Jia family and wanted to lure her out deliberately to murder her.

But seeing that he is not good at all,

Following the fastest route to Ningshou Palace in her memory, she felt a little confused again.

She and the Empress Dowager Wu Yashi had little connection, not to mention that Wu Yashi became the Queen Mother thanks to Yinzhen.

You shouldn't take the risk of angering Yinzhen to punish her for the sake of Ma Jia, right?
Ningshou Palace,
As soon as Zhi Yupu entered, he felt the solemn atmosphere.
Wu Yashi, who was sitting at the top, was dressed in a sapphire blue flag uniform. He did not look at her, but lowered his head and stirred the soup at hand.
"Greetings to the Empress Dowager!"

Wu Yashi threw the spoon away.
The spoon collided with the celadon soup cup, making a crisp "ding" sound.
Then Wu Yashi turned her head, looked at Zhiyu with a low expression, and said coldly:

"The sinful woman Guarjia has disregarded human relations and tarnished the emperor's reputation. As the queen mother, Aijia will make the decision for the late emperor and give you a ride."

After saying that, he waved his hand and the nanny next to him held a tray and placed it in front of Zhiyu.

Zhiyu's pupils couldn't help but shrink,
On the tray were three items: white silk, red crane crown, and dagger.

"Please choose the same as the noble concubine!"

"What is the meaning of this, Empress Dowager?"

Wu Yashi actually wanted to execute her openly and openly.

You must know that the relationship between Wu Yashi and Yinzhen, mother and son, is notoriously bad.
Aren't you afraid that Yinzhen will be angry if he finds out?

"Ai Jia didn't make it clear enough?"

As soon as Wu Yashi said this, several powerful nuns and eunuchs gathered around her.

"Of course I dare not disobey the Queen Mother's words..."

Zhiyu's face turned pale, his fingers shrank, and his sharp nails dug into his palms. He forced himself to calm down and continued:
"Anyway, my concubine's life is a shameful one, and it is not a pity to die. However, it has not been long since the death of the late emperor and the new emperor has just ascended the throne."

"The Queen Mother keeps thinking about the late emperor and the new emperor, isn't she afraid that after my concubine's death, this matter will be spread out and make people laugh in vain?"

Zhiyu no longer cares whether there are loopholes in his words,

What she has to do now is to drag her until Dongju calls Yinzhen,

"Haha, the Ai family doesn't need you to teach them how to do things!"

Wu Yashi sneered,
"Are you waiting for the emperor to come?"
