The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 168

Kangxi narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinizing Niu Hulu, who was kneeling in front of him and weeping bitterly, and was too lazy to circle around with her, snorted coldly, and asked bluntly: "Your family is ugly, I have no mind Yes, I am too lazy to send someone to investigate this matter. Now I just want to know what is the real purpose of your prescription?"

Niu Hulu was about to answer, but he heard Kangxi's faint advice: "As for the answer I want to know, you have to think carefully before opening your mouth. If you really want to avenge your mother But you would rather abandon your entire family, you can continue to lie in front of me. The crime of deceiving the king and murdering the concubine, you are not only seeking your own death, but also exhausting your family if you get what you want. Could it be that this Is that what you want?"

Niu Hulu's body shook violently, kowtowed to Kangxi again and again to plead guilty, until blood came out from his forehead, and then cried sadly: "The emperor is the son of heaven, his status is precious, and he has been clothed and fed since he was a child. He should have never suffered Hungry, or have eaten moldy food! But such a miserable life, but the concubine has lived for three years!"

"Since the concubine wore the wrong clothes at the palace banquet on the first day of the new year three years ago and was ordered by the emperor to live in seclusion in the bedroom to recuperate from illness, everyone in the harem thought that the concubine offended Long Yan and made something bad happen. She will definitely be rejected by the emperor, and there will be no possibility of turning over in the future. Therefore, not only Concubine Tong, who was in charge of Fengyin at that time, didn't bother to pay attention to her concubines, but even Empress De, who was the head of Yonghe Palace, gradually forgot her concubines."

"Gradually, even the maidservants who waited on the concubine dared to ride on the concubine's neck to act wildly! The concubine's close maid not only often ridiculed the concubine, but even dared to occupy the concubine's position privately. Even every time when eating, I just casually bring some leftovers to send away the servants and concubines..."

When Niu Hulu said this, he was choked up, and took a few deep breaths before he recovered, "I know that I am timid and useless, and I can't even take care of my only daughter. Maid and concubine Not only did she lose little Gege, but she was even bullied by the palace servants at will... However, the maidservant really didn't want the deceased little Gege to watch in the sky. Disappointed with the concubine!"

Niu Hulu wiped the tears from her face, raised her head, looked straight into Kangxi's sharp eyes boldly, and said clearly, "My concubine...the concubine still has one thought in her heart. I hope that little Gege can think of her mother, and she will be the daughter of the concubine in the next life! Therefore, the concubine does not want to continue to live such a life of being bullied! Bullying! That's why the concubine wanted to present the ancestral medicine, hoping to help Concubine Xi get rid of the scar on her wrist, so as to please the emperor and Concubine Xi. It even implied cold medicine, which almost harmed the concubine Xi! The concubine is guilty, please punish the emperor!"

When Kangxi heard that Niu Hulu mentioned the undesired daughter, his face softened a little.Kangxi pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "I will order someone to investigate the disrespect of the maidservant. If your maidservant is really so presumptuous, and dares to commit the same crime and disrespect the master, I will order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to re-inspect you. Arrange a maidservant to serve you in Yonghe Palace. As for the maidservant serving you now, I will hand it over to you. It is up to you to decide whether to beat or kill at that time. But if I find out that you have half a lie, I will severely punish you for the crime of deceiving the emperor and the felony of murdering a concubine according to the palace rules."

With tears streaming down his face, Niu Hulu kowtowed to Kangxi again and again to thank him.

Unexpectedly, Niu Hulu just kowtowed three times, but Kangxi continued to say: "You don't need to be in a hurry to thank you, I haven't finished my words yet."

Niu Hulu's heart was shocked, and she looked up at Kangxi in surprise, only to see Kangxi frowning slightly, and said to her in a deep voice: "You were so depressed because of the pain of bereavement, and in the end you were reduced to being bullied by your maidservants. Those evil slaves who dared to bully the Lord deserve to die, but you yourself should bear more than half of the responsibility for the crimes you have suffered in the past three years. If you had shown half of the courage you had in offering medicine to the saint in the Imperial Garden earlier , how could you be under the control of a close servant for three years? I can understand the reason for your behavior in view of the deceased little Gege, but I can't forgive your recklessness for almost giving Xi The concubine brings danger."

Kangxi examined Niu Hulu with sharp eyes, until Niu Hulu lowered his head uneasy, Kangxi waved his hand, and said lightly: "The person you should kowtow to plead guilty is not me, but Concubine Xi. Go Yikun Palace kowtows to Concubine Xi to apologize. If she cares about this matter, I will still punish you for murdering concubine according to the palace rules."

After hearing what Kangxi said, Niu Hulu became more and more sure of Nian Xilan's position in Kangxi's heart.Niu Hulu knew very well in his heart that if Kangxi just wanted to make a gesture of doting on Nian Xilan for everyone in the palace to see, he would never do this, and even the details of his words could clearly reflect His love for Concubine Xi.

Niu Hulu respectfully saluted and promised, hurriedly exited Qianqing Palace, and immediately went to Yikun Palace to plead guilty to Nian Xilan according to Kangxi's order.
