The Concubine of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 56 Confrontation
"I understand!" The Queen Mother knew that the Queen had also grown up. She is no longer the little girl who entered the palace six years ago.

Just like the emperor has grown up.

So I had my own ideas. Like his imperial father, he began to have his own opinions, but his imperial father expressed his opinions fiercely and did not hesitate to argue with her many times.

Everyone knew that she had a rebellious son and that the Qing Dynasty had a politically talented but radical emperor.

The Empress Dowager always wants to stop me! After being blocked back and forth, the affection between mother and son was exhausted. In the end, they became more like enemies than mother and son.

It's just that the emperor's attitude is now more gentle than that of his imperial father. But this is the appearance! It's just that it hasn't reached the point of being excited inside.

Now history seems to be happening again. The Empress Dowager is a person who has been lost before. Even though she is Bumu Butai, a strong and wise Empress Dowager, she has lived for so many more years and experienced many more things. So I also understood what it means to be timid!
The Queen Mother is a person with experience. She chose to take a step back.

"Mothers worry about their children; children are debts from previous lives! Children and parents understand this." The Empress Dowager held her back straight, and she didn't know if she was feeling this.

After watching the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and Concubine Niu Hulu walk out, everyone stood up. There was a commotion in the crowd, and Concubine Zhang wailed loudly, "My son!" she pushed aside the concubine beside her, Then he ran to the palace where Zhengge Ge's body was found.

One concubine was pushed away by her and almost hit the wall. Even when she bumped into another concubine, she reflexively caught her. There were also maids beside them who helped. The concubine who was pushed away still sprained a bit.

Suddenly, he also frowned. The silent frown makes people hate the initiator even more!
"Hey! Are you okay?" The concubine who was promoted was Lai Mo. People with red flags do not have any ancestral property in their families. They were able to enter the palace because of the draft system, and they did not get much favor after entering the palace. He probably only stayed in bed once, and he was also a transparent person in the palace.

She could not afford to offend anyone in the palace. Therefore, even though Concubine Zhang pushed her away, she still smiled and had no intention of pursuing any further investigation. "It's okay! Sister Zhang also loves her daughter very much."

"You are just too sweet-tempered, and you are not at all as happy as our Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia." Concubine E Zhuo looked down on Han Junqi, but she also looked down on Concubine Mo's cowardice.

Concubine Lai Mo smiled. She knew that she could not afford to offend anyone in the palace.

She couldn't afford to offend Concubine Zhang, nor could she afford to offend Concubine E Zhuo. Her life was already very difficult, so she could only shrink back.

Concubine Lai Mo didn't care about it herself, so how could anyone care about her grievances. All the concubines only glanced at her, and a few of them comforted her, "Concubine Zhang is indeed a little too much." Bar!"

But they all spoke very quietly.

Concubine Lai Mo said softly to Concubine Niutu who she bumped into, "I'm sorry."

"It doesn't matter!" Concubine Niutu shook her head and said softly.

Both were descended from Tianya, and her situation was similar to that of Lai Mo's concubine. He is of low birth, has never been pampered, and lives cautiously. Occasionally I will hold it to keep warm!

Concubine Lai Mo breathed a sigh of relief. On such a big occasion, especially a sad occasion, if there was a commotion, no matter what the fate of Concubine Zhang was, her end would definitely not be good. Just be patient and forget it. Concubine Zhang rushed into the palace where she was visiting Da Gege's body. Outside the door, the queen and the empress dowager were supporting the empress dowager before they could go far. They both heard Concubine Zhang's wailing behind them!
The queen's face immediately turned ugly, "Ms. Zhang is a stubborn person and has good luck. She was lucky enough to give birth to an imperial heir. After all, she is the biological mother of Da Princess. My granddaughter-in-law must save some face for her," the queen said: " Granddaughter-in-law will teach her well later."

The queen still had an impression of Da Gege. After all, she was the queen. She said she took good care of the emperor's heirs, and there must be some evidence to prove it. Therefore, she knew some things about the children in the palace.

Zhang is really stupid, but stupid people have the advantage of being stupid. At least the emperor won't like it too much. Even if they give birth to an heir, it won't be a big deal!
The queen is at least relieved.

If the royal heir is born with his mother, the queen will be even more relieved.

The empress had her own thoughts, so the empress dowager simply turned her head and said to the empress: "You have the final say in matters concerning the harem."

She looks like a kind mother-in-law!

The queen and the empress dowager still supported the empress dowager and walked forward, and Concubine Niu Hulu followed behind, "Queen, I can't live without you in Xitou Suo. You go back! Your empress and I went back by ourselves."

The Empress Dowager set her sights on Concubine Niu Hulu again. She was an excellent woman and would be the best queen. Unfortunately, she was good at everything except for her birth defects. On this point, as long as the queen was here , and cut off all her thoughts, the Empress Dowager said: "Ms. Niu Hulu, you are the only concubine in the palace. When the Queen cannot take care of her, you should pay more attention. Do you understand?"

Concubine Niu Hulu should be weak, but not too weak, otherwise the harem will be the queen's world. A single family has always been prone to crisis.

"The Queen is virtuous. The more I pay attention to her, the more I admire her. If there is anything I don't care about, I will definitely report it to the Queen." Concubine Niu Hulu knew what the Empress Dowager meant. The royal family wanted to use her, but also wanted to guard against her. Niu Hulu was very thoughtful, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to make every move perfectly.

Concubine Niu Hulu wanted to satisfy the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Niu Hulu clan, and the established nobles. If the queen is dissatisfied a little bit, then she won't be dissatisfied!
You can't stand me! You should also treat me well. No matter what, at some point, the emperor still had to protect her.

You can't just burn incense on a regular basis and come to cram it in a hurry. Nor should it!

Concubine Niu Hulu advanced and retreated in a measured manner. She not only followed the wishes of the Empress Dowager, which was also the emperor's hidden intention, but she also gave the queen enough face and would not give room for criticism by the censors and the ladies inside and outside.

Such thoughtful thinking makes people live like this all day long, and they don’t know if they are tired!
But there is probably nothing I can do if I am tired. People who are useless in the palace are not valued; people who are not valued have a hard time protecting themselves, and most of them survive one day at a time. The future and tomorrow are luxuries to them.

The queen knew that the empress dowager was beating and reminding her, by giving some tips to Concubine Niu Hulu, but she still couldn't show it.

"Farewell to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother." The Queen and Concubine Niu Hulu bid farewell to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother.

So what if Concubine Niu Hulu is the only concubine? She is just the emperor's concubine. There are differences between concubines and concubines. She is the only one who can call the empress dowager and the empress dowager "Emperor Ma Ma and Huang E Nie". The Empress of the Earth; the other concubines can only be addressed as "the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager".

The overt and covert confrontations at all levels were staged in the five Qianxi institutes.
