The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 166 Retribution
After an unknown amount of time, the empress lay on the couch quietly with a hopeless face. She looked at Qingyue who was sobbing with tears streaming down her face, and asked lightly, "This typhoid disease is caused by the palace ordering Kang Fushou to come from outside the palace. Brought it in, and only used it in Elder Brother’s house. Now that Cheng Hu died of illness, do you think it’s because his hands and feet are not clean?”

Qingyue felt a little distressed in her heart, she gathered herself together, and then slowly replied to the queen: "Eunuch Kang has always done his affairs properly, and if he brought in dirty things such as Kunning Palace, then our second elder brother will say that he is sick." , should also be sent before Chengxiang and Chengqing, this."

The queen turned sideways, sneered slightly, and her voice sounded exhausted: "If it wasn't for him, then it would be my own retribution! Using this trick to kill other people's children, all the ancestors are watching, so then I want my child to die from the same disease, and I want me to know how it feels to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person."

Qingyue saw the empress giving up on herself and speaking in despair, she held her hand with tears in her eyes: "Empress, you are a clean person, this matter was originally Yun Changzai's idea, and Eunuch Kang was asked to do it, what has it to do with you? You don't need to Such self-deprecating, you are the queen of the Qing Dynasty, blessed by your ancestors, you are still young, and you will have princes with the emperor!"

The queen was silent for a moment, then broke away from her hand, and said with a gloomy expression: "If the disease that Kang Fushou brought from outside the palace wasn't this fierce and incurable disease, how could Chenghu be like this?" She raised her eyebrows. hand, looked at Qingyue seriously: "Go and help me with something."

Qingyue nodded and replied: "Your Majesty, tell me that the servants should do the work for your Majesty."

The queen glanced at the half-made tiger-head hat that Chenghu had sewed on the warm seat, and said indignantly: "Chenghu is a bit lonely when he goes on the road alone, so let Kang Fushou go to Jiuquan to serve him."

Qingyue turned pale with shock, she quickly knelt down in front of the queen's bed, shook her head repeatedly and said: "Empress, Eunuch Kang and this servant have served you for several years and have always been loyal to you. My servant begs you to spare her a way out. You are angry in your heart." , it’s fine even if you’re beaten to death and sent out of the palace, empress.”

The queen casually picked up the bronze incense burner on the table beside the couch and threw it at Qingyue's forehead. Qingyue groaned in pain, and blood oozed from her forehead instantly.But before she could think about it, she heard the queen tearing her throat and roaring like a mad woman: "Go if I tell you to go! If you pity him! Then go down together to accompany Chenghu!"

Qingyue has served the queen for seven years, and she has never seen the queen lose her composure like this.

She looked at the queen's trembling body and ferocious face with tears in her eyes, and she was secretly apprehensive.

Although the death of her son was a big blow to her, Kang Fushou did it according to her will. Now that Chenghu is infected with the disease, it cannot be completely said to be the cause of Kang Fushou.

It is really chilling that the queen does not think of the friendship between master and servant like this, and does not distinguish between black and white.

Seeing her standing on her knees, the empress became even more furious, pointing at her and shouting: "Baby maid! Is this palace unable to command you now? Why don't you get out of here?"

Qingyue was so frightened that she hurriedly withdrew from the dormitory, fearing that if she stayed for a while longer, the queen would also deal with herself.

After Qingyue left, the queen was silent for a long time, and suddenly laughed wantonly.

That laughter was especially piercing in the quiet night, full of desolation and madness, as if it was about to tear Ye Lang into a bloody gash.

The veranda where Kang Fushou lives is the most eye-catching room in the palace. Because he is a celebrity around the empress, many palace people flatter him, hoping to get something from him.

When the Qing moon came, there were still bright candles burning in Kang Fushou's house.

Qingyue held a peach wood food box in her hand, slowly placed the food and wine inside on the table, and said lightly: "You haven't eaten well after a busy day, are you going to starve?"

Kang Fushou smiled, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, it's all for the empress, it's hard for you to still remember me at this moment."

When a maid enters the palace, she will not be able to get out, and she will serve in the Forbidden City for the rest of her life. If she is lucky enough to be sympathized with by the emperor, she will be able to fly up the branches like a spruce, but most people will live in this palace all their lives.

Therefore, it is not uncommon for court ladies and eunuchs to have good eclipses in the Forbidden City.

After all, Kang Fushou and Qingyue have been together day and night for so many years, it is not true to say that the two of them have no other affection.

Although the eunuch is a person with clean descendants after being stabbed, he is still half a man no matter what.

In this palace, a little support and sustenance can always be brought to women.

Qingyue and him have never stated their relationship explicitly, but their care for each other makes the unspoken words obvious.

Kang Fushou took two steps forward, wanting to help Yun Shan take out food, but at this moment, he happened to see the dry blood scab on Qingyue's forehead, so he said distressedly: "How could this be? Such a big wound, I'm afraid it will leave Scar." He reached out and stroked Qingyue's forehead, but Qingyue pushed it away, smiled bluntly and shook his head and said nothing.

Qingyue took the white jade jug, poured two glasses of sake for the two of them, and then said: "The empress has always been in a bad mood for the past two days, and she can't sleep comfortably at night. I am serving by her side, so naturally she is in a trance. I didn’t care, so I fell and bumped against the threshold, it’s not a problem.”

As she spoke, she handed a pair of bamboo chopsticks to Kang Fushou: "Come on, you've lost weight after all these days."

Kang Fushou picked up a chopsticks of flat beef and put it into his mouth, and asked Qingyue from time to time: "How is the empress? The second elder brother has gone, and she still doesn't know how to feel uncomfortable. You and I should always comfort her. , so that we can help her get through this hurdle together, right?" He said, took a drink from his glass, and praised the wine twice with 'tsk tsk'.

Qingyue's eyes were fixed on her cheeks, and they gradually turned red as tears welled up. Kang Fushou felt sorry for her, and hurriedly wiped away her tears: "What's the matter, why are you crying so hard? I know you take care of her every day. Brother, the relationship with him is no less than that of the empress, but who can say for sure about this matter of God's will?" He secretly sighed: "In the final analysis, I am incompetent, let you follow me, this life The childless suffer."

"Where is this what I'm asking for?" Qingyue stood up suddenly, took two steps back, knelt down, and bowed to Kang Fushou: "I am very grateful to you for taking care of me these years. Although you and I have The matter of men and women, the reality of husband and wife, but in my heart, I have always regarded you as the closest person to me besides the empress."

Kang Fushou looked at her with some puzzlement: "What's wrong with you today? Why?" He was halfway through speaking when he suddenly felt his chest throbbing, followed by blood gushing out of his stomach and splashing all over the floor from his mouth.
