Empress Xiao Zhaoren in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 58

She is not smart enough, so she can only force herself to become vicious bit by bit.This is how you protect yourself and those around you.

If Rong Ruo doesn't understand, he doesn't understand at all...

Thinking of this, Rong Huang gritted his teeth, and was about to leave when someone grabbed his arm.

She turned around in surprise, and saw Rong Ruo's dark and deep eyes.She used to not believe that people's eyes could speak, but now——she could clearly see the sadness, regret, and guilt in his eyes.

"I'm sorry," she heard him say, "I shouldn't have talked to you like that."

Rong Huang sneered, pulled out his hand and said, "I am the king, you are the minister, of course you are presumptuous!"

"No, that's not what I'm talking about." Rong Ruo's expression gradually became calm, as if dyed with the color of spring, extremely gentle: "I'm not apologizing because you are the imperial concubine. It's just because...you are Rong Huang."

She looked at him strangely, and said with a broken smile: "I heard that Mr. Nalan is so proud of his talents that he doesn't even pay attention to the emperor's request, and now it seems that it is so."

"It doesn't matter if you use me or plot against me, I just hope that when you are tired and helpless...remember me." Seeing her vigilant expression, he added another sentence deceiving himself: "Even if you don't have the chance to be a husband and wife, at least you will have me." We are also cousins, so you don't have to be so wary of me."

At this moment, Rong Huang suddenly had a strange illusion, this affectionate liar was not sent by the Hesheli family or the Ma Jia family to abduct her, right?
Rong Huang was amused by his own thoughts.She slightly picked her lips, and said softly: "Okay. But... I hope that day will never come."

When he was stunned, Rong Huang finally pulled back and walked out of the sea of ​​flowers almost as if he was escaping.

The girls didn't know what happened just now, or pretended not to know even though they knew it.Rulan lowered her head innocently and sniffed those delicate flowers, and praised with a smile: "The magnolia blooms here are so beautiful, I'm afraid I will never forget them in this life!"

Forever...unforgettable...

Suddenly, the phrase Kangxi said not long ago, "Bi Mei Meng Jiang, Deyin will never be forgotten" sounded in her ears, and she was in a trance for a while.Who is it, and who is it hard to forget?

The day after Ronghuang returned to the palace, the news of Sony's death spread from the Hesheli Mansion.Holding the memorial in his hand, Kangxi seemed to be able to spit fire from his eyes, but he had to grit his teeth and give him the posthumous title of "Wen Zhong".

Kangxi's anger is suffocated.He never expected that Sony would join his army before his death, and even tried to prevent him from being in power, and suggested that his son Suo'etu be one of the assistant ministers!

What is a Suo'etu!Although he is the queen's uncle, he is a bit clever, but he is just the head of the guards, why should he assist the government?It's ridiculous!Did the Hesheli family really think that the emperor was ignorant and knew nothing?Aobai is certainly reckless, and Ye Bilong is indeed cunning, but the Hesheli family has been reluctant to delegate power for a long time, just to keep Fang'er's position as queen, they still have the nerve to call themselves loyal ministers?It's ridiculous!
After venting his anger by dropping a pile of porcelain in the Qianqing Palace, Kangxi finally calmed down and ordered a grand funeral for Sony.

This imperial decree was issued extremely irritatingly. He, the emperor, has no real power yet, so he can only issue some etiquette instructions. All of these are thanks to the Hesheli family!The more he thought about it, the more he hated it. As an emperor, what he hated the most was being deceived.But the Hesheli family repeatedly challenged his bottom line. Do they really think that the emperor can be kneaded like dough?

At this moment, Wei Zhu came in tremblingly and passed on: "Your Majesty, the aunt in charge of the Changchun Palace, Qianyi, is waiting outside, asking you to go to the Changchun Palace..."

In rage, Xuan Ye pointed at the door and shouted sharply: "Get out!"

"Your Majesty..." Wei Zhu was a chief eunuch, so it was very embarrassing to be scolded by the emperor like this.But at this moment, the matter was so important that he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother fainted from crying after hearing the news of Lord Suo's death, and she didn't wake up after pinching her for a long time..."

The emperor didn't take it seriously, he had seen enough tricks like crying, making trouble and hanging himself! "What did she ask me to do when she didn't wake up? Where's the imperial doctor? Are they all dead?"

Wei Zhu secretly wiped off her sweat, thinking that the empress is not a slave who refuses to help you, it's really that the emperor doesn't care about you... Wei Zhu sighed and stepped back carefully.Unexpectedly, just as he was walking to the door, the emperor suddenly stopped him, and said in a deep voice: "Get ready, and drive to Yikun Palace."

Wei Zhu was taken aback, but at this pass, the emperor's first thought was not to appease the queen, but to go to Yikun Palace to visit Concubine Zhao... Such a favor, I really don't know if it is a blessing or a curse!But he didn't have the guts to say no to the furious emperor, so he hurriedly stooped and ran outside to pass on the dragon chariot.

In Yikun Palace, Rong Huang got the letter and stood guard at the gate of the palace early on.She wore a crescent moon white silk skirt with complicated patterns today, which was pure and elegant, and she had a kind of graceful and luxurious demeanor.Seeing her heart move, Xuan Ye quickly stepped forward and held her hand. Although his tone was not completely gentle, it was completely free from the badness just now: "Why are you so disobedient? How many times have I said it, but Tian'er is still cold, Don't always wait for me outside."

Rong Huang smiled lightly, neither agreed nor refused.Knowing that she was stubborn, Xuan Ye stopped persuading her, and they entered the house hand in hand.

She was naturally afraid of the cold, and even though it was already March in Yangchun, the copper stove was still burning in the house for heating.Spices seem to be added to the stove, and the aroma wafts out with the curling white smoke, making people feel warmer.

Spring is born in one room.

Rong Huang held the jug with her own hands, her slender hands were weak and boneless.Xuan Ye didn't know what was wrong with him, and suddenly he couldn't help holding her hand.

Perhaps it was because she was raised in a boudoir for urinating, that hand was so white that it was almost transparent, and it was so weak that it would shatter if squeezed lightly.Xuan Ye was a little distracted for a moment.A beautiful woman is a beautiful woman, every detail is extremely perfect.

"Your Majesty." Rong Huang suddenly spoke, and said infinitely softly: "The concubine heard that the empress is unconscious, and was going to visit... why are you here?"

"Annoyed." Xuan Ye let go of her hand, and sighed softly: "That old man Soni actually made a statement before he died, asking Suo'etu to take his place and continue to assist the government!" As soon as he finished speaking, he Then he realized that he had lost his composure. He shouldn't have mentioned these important national affairs to Rong Huang, especially the matter involving the four ministers... But at that moment, he was too relaxed, and he said it so naturally from the bottom of my heart...

The more Xuan Ye thought about it, the more frightened he became. Just when he was about to think of the dark side, Rong Huang suddenly interrupted his contemplation: "This..." She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but I don't know what to think of again, so I hold back.

Xuan Ye couldn't help being curious: "What do you want to say, but it doesn't matter."

Rong Huang bit her lips: "Then...the emperor must first forgive the crime of discussing government affairs."

Her thoughts more or less represented the standpoint of Obai and Ye Bilong, Xuan Ye couldn't wish for the thoughts of these ministers, so how could she easily blame her?So he held her hand again, and said in relief: "Rong'er, it's okay to say, I won't blame you."

Rong Huang nodded slightly, and pondered: "I feel... Lord Soni is a veteran of several dynasties. Given his loyalty to the royal family, he should not have written such an excerpt."

Kangxi was obviously stunned, and blurted out: "But this memorial was obviously presented by the Hesheli Mansion..." At this point, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Rong Huang and said: "You mean, This memorial is not what Sony intended, but the people in the Hesheli Mansion deliberately did it in order to keep their status?"

Rong Huang hurriedly lowered her head and said: "This matter is of great importance, I dare not make rash judgments."

Xuan Ye stared at her silently for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing, and hugged her in his arms: "Little Phoenix, you are really smart and honest. Don't forget that you are a member of the Niu Hulu family." Why is it so natural to talk about the Hesheli family in front of me?" If she had deep plans, shouldn't she use someone else's mouth to tell him this conjecture?Why would you still speak your mind?
Rong Huang pursed his lips and smiled, sometimes the emperor's thoughts were so strange, if he said something directly, he would believe it, but if he made side-stepping remarks, he would be suspicious instead.

"The concubine naturally knows that her surname is Niu Hulu, but the concubine is a member of the Aixinjueluo family after entering the palace." She looked at Xuan Ye with a smile, her eyes were tender, but she was sneering in her heart.

The memorial she instructed Tong's people to replace Sony was not just to make the emperor hate Sony, but to make Kangxi stick to the Hesheli family for the rest of his life, and feel that the Hesheli family was greedy for power!A dead person is dead after all, so what is the need to pursue it?But she will not let anyone alive, including Suo'etu who proposed to harm her!

Was the emperor persuaded by Rong Huang to go to the Hesheli family?As soon as he left, Rulan couldn't help complaining: "Master, it's fine to push him to Changchun Palace, but he even lighted aphrodisiac incense for Hesheli! Just order it, it's also good in Changchun Palace Okay, why do you want to burn incense in our palace?" She turned her head and glanced bitterly at the copper stove that was still emitting white smoke, with an expression on her face that she wanted to swallow the stove.
