The blessing of the Qing Dynasty is difficult to pass

Chapter 628 The sky is falling

After the new year, Hongdan went to study in the study as usual, and went to Ningshou Palace for lunch at noon.

The queen mother really hurt him to the bottom of his heart, every time there is a table full of dishes, although Hongdan is young, he can talk and has a lot of courage, and he is not afraid of the identity of the queen mother at all. , made the Queen Mother very cheerful.

"You child, you have such a sweet mouth. Rao'er stutters and is thirteen clumsy. They gave birth to you, a clever little ghost. It's really painful."

Hongdan was a little flattered by the queen mother's praise, and retorted without even thinking about it, "Where is it, Er Niang doesn't stutter, she often refutes Ama with her mouth, and is speechless."

After Hongdan finished speaking, the scene was silent for three seconds. Hongdan belatedly remembered what he had just said. He quickly stretched out his little hand to cover his mouth, and looked at the Queen Mother with wide eyes and horror. .

His attitude of not having 300 taels of silver here and there made the empress dowager have a bad feeling in her heart. If he didn't do this kind of action, the empress dowager would think that the sentence just now was just a child's talk and didn't take it to heart, but now... …

The queen mother supported Hongdan's small shoulders with both hands, and forced a confession with a majestic expression, "Hongdan, you and the old ancestor should explain clearly, what is going on with your mother?"

Hongdan tried to struggle. He had been told by Yinxiang since he was a child, but now he accidentally revealed this big secret. The strong fear made him shake his little head and deny it, "Ms. fine."

"Don't lie!" The Empress Dowager lowered her face and emphasized her tone.

After all, he was only a six-year-old child. Although Hongdan was courageous, he couldn't stand the empress dowager's intimidation. In addition, he didn't know how to explain to Yiluo Yinxiang after returning home. Boundless fear flooded his little heart. Tears welled up, "No, no lie."

"Tell the truth to the old ancestor, otherwise the old ancestor will not love you in the future!" The queen mother was unmoved, her face sank like water. After being the queen mother for decades, the coercion radiating from her body is not like that of a six-year-old child like Hongdan. can bear it.

Sure enough, in the next second, Hong Dan burst into tears, "Old Ancestor, Dan'er didn't do it on purpose, after going back, Erniang Ama will scold Dan'er to death, woo woo woo..."

He really just said in passing that he never thought of exposing his mother-in-law's big secret to the public.

"Good boy Hongdan, tell the old ancestor, what is going on? The old ancestor loves you so much, and also loves you, Ama, and your mother. You don't want to hide something from the old ancestor, do you?" The queen mother changed her strategy, Seduction began.

Seeing the empress dowager's benign and kind face again, Hongdan twitched and said what he knew, "Er Niang, she doesn't stutter, her stammer is just for others to see."

Of course, he didn't tell the story of Xiao Bailong, otherwise it would be too shocking.

The Empress Dowager's heart was bleeding, she endured the pain and continued to ask, "Your mother suffered a lot. She suffered a catastrophe when she was a child. She stuttered before. Do you know when her stuttering got better?"

"I don't know, anyway, Erniang spoke fluently since she was a child."

as a child?So Yi Rao has been hiding it from her for at least six or seven years.

The child she loves so much, and the child she has watched grow up since she was a child, actually hides such a big matter from her. Is this cheating her sympathy and love?
Fortunately, she always thought that Yi Rao was the most filial.

As expected, Yi Rao was not stupid, it was she and Kangxi who were stupid.

This realization made the queen mother both angry and sad, how, how could Yirao deceive her, stop stuttering, that's all right, she will only be happy for Yirao, and love Yirao as much as before.

But why did Yi Rao lie to her!Why do you have to pretend to be weak and pitiful to win her sympathy?
With all her sincere dedication, is Yi Rao secretly enjoying herself behind her back?She was played around by Yi Rao like a fool!
Huge anger and sadness pounded the empress dowager's elderly body, and the more she thought about it, the more grief and indignation became, until she finally vomited blood and passed out.

Now the Ningshou Palace is in chaos, the maids and eunuchs are running around, some to invite Kangxi and some to call the imperial physician.

Hongdan stayed alone in Ningshou Palace, looking at the court ladies and eunuchs coming and going, and felt that the sky was about to collapse.

The sky is indeed going to fall, wait for the queen mother to wake up and tell Kangxi the whole story, Kangxi also swayed, his mind went blank, and he almost fainted.

He couldn't believe his ears. His son and daughter-in-law, whom he had been hurting for 20 years, joined forces to deceive himself and the king. This is a serious crime of deceiving the king.

Why lie to yourself?Why!
Fortunately, he used to think that Yinxiang was the most filial, sensible and obedient, but he actually lied to him for so many years, lied to him for so many years!

Thanks to his painstaking efforts to train Yin Xiang to be the crown prince, I have pity on his hard work!

Just like the Empress Dowager, sadness and anger filled Kangxi's chest, and he was so angry that he asked people to call Yi Rao and Yin Xiang.

How dare he lie to him for so many years, this matter is endless.

What is cheating, this is cheating.

Hongdan's trick of pitting Yinxiang was not serious. After so many years of concealing things, Hongdan stabbed them out just like that.

Although Kangxi and the Empress Dowager were angry, they were still rational and did not transfer their anger to Hongdan. They had always been kind to him, and ordered the maids to take care of him, and did not let him see Yiluo and Yinxiang.

The child is innocent, and the next meeting with Yi Rao Yinxiang will definitely be unpleasant. Kangxi does not want to leave any bad memories for Hongdan.

Although he was angry with Yinxiang, his love for Hongdan was still there.

Ningshou Palace.

Kangxi met Yirao and Yinxiang in front of the Empress Dowager's bed.

Yi Rao and Yin Xiang already understood what happened by bribing the eunuch who delivered the decree. When they saw these two, they quickly knelt down and kowtowed, waiting for the trial without saying a word.

The reason why they hid it from Kangxi and the Empress Dowager at the beginning was indeed to gain sympathy, which they could not deny.

"Say! Why did you lie to me and the Queen Mother!" Kangxi said in a gloomy tone, almost squeezing the words through his teeth.

He had never felt so heartbroken when the prince swung a knife at him. After all, the prince had done bad things before, so he was prepared.

But Yinxiang is different, such a good, sensible and obedient perfect child, except for being confused about Concubine Min, would even lie to him, and he has been cheating for so many years.

The child he has always been proud of has lied to him for so many years. Various emotions such as betrayal, loss, self-deprecation, heartache, and anger are intertwined. Kangxi wants to kill, really wants to kill.

"Huang Ama calm down, I lied to you, I thought, if Raoer continues to maintain her previous image, she may be able to win the affection of you and Huang Mama, so I lied to you and Huang Mama."

Deceit is deception, this is a fact, and there is no room for sophistry.Yinxiang didn't make useless explanations, but said what he had.

Yinxiang's straightforward attitude made Kangxi and the queen mother even more angry. They hoped that Yinxiang could make an excuse that was hard to tell, but Yinxiang just admitted it, leaving them no room for fantasy.

"You! You are so courageous. Do you know that this is a crime of deceiving the emperor!" Kangxi wanted to lift his foot to kick Yinxiang, but he hesitated for a while and then endured it.

I can't bear it.

"My son is guilty, Huang Ama. Huang Mama, please calm down." Yinxiang touched his forehead to the ground, and kowtowed deeply to Kangxi and the Queen Mother.

Seeing this, Yi Rao quickly followed suit. Hearing that the queen mother vomited blood because of her anger, she felt really guilty and uneasy.

"Yi Rao! Come and tell me why you deceived me and the Queen Mother!" Kangxi roared, he put his hope on Yi Rao, hoping that Yi Rao could make up a reasonable excuse.

"Brother Huang, my daughter-in-law is unfilial and deceived you and the queen mother, there is no other reason, just like the Thirteenth Master said." Yi Rao said calmly.

When Yi Rao opened her mouth like this, her words flowed smoothly, and the anger of the Empress Dowager and Kangxi escalated to a higher level. It was really hard enough to pretend to stammer for so many years.

"Tell me honestly, did you pretend to be stupid and stuttering when you were young!" Kangxi asked again.

Kangxi is the best at associating, and Yirao lied to him about stammering, so he suspected that Yirao's stupidity and stuttering at the beginning were all faked.

"Daughter-in-law dare not. It is true that her brain was not sharp when she was young, but as she gets older, her brain becomes more and more useful, and her stuttering gradually heals."

"Hmph! Who knows if what you said is true or not!"

"Huang Ama, for so many years, my daughter-in-law has never lied to you except for lying to you about this matter. My daughter-in-law pretended to be stuttering just to win your love and affection. I hope you will love her more. There is nothing else. There is no ulterior purpose, let alone the idea of ​​harming you."

She and Yinxiang lied to the Empress Dowager Kangxi and the world, did they have some ulterior purpose?

No, it's just to win sympathy, so that others can relax their defenses against her and hurt her less.It's just that I want to hold the two big backers of Kangxi and the Queen Mother firmly, and I really don't have any bad intentions.

"For your own selfish desires, you kept me and the queen mother in the dark. I and the queen mother love you so much. Have you ever thought about how I and the queen mother feel!" My heart is bleeding, it is really bleeding, the most beloved The younger generation lied to themselves to win their love and affection, my God, even Yinxiang lied to him, who else could he trust in the future?

"Tell me honestly, is your filial piety in the past faked? Isn't it!" Kangxi stared, suspicious of Yinxiang and Yiluo for one thing.

"Huang Ama, the filial piety of Erchen and Rao'er to you and Huang Mama is a lesson from heaven and earth! Erchen has almost never disobeyed you and Huang Mama. Whatever good things Erchen and Rao'er have, they are always the first!" I always think about you and Huang Mama, so many things over the years, little by little, how about Erchen and Raoer, you know!"

Yinxiang quickly explained.

"I don't know! You are doing this because I am the emperor and your mother is the queen mother! You just want to please me and the queen mother, how can you be filial?!"
