Empress Xiao Zhaoren in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 77

Liu Qing raised her head slightly, hesitated and said: "Master is right, but...even if the Empress Dowager and the others can turn a blind eye, will your family... Lord Ye Bilong agree? Obai My lord is outspoken, won't he leak the news? Will the Niu Hulu family let it go? Forgive me for talking too much, ma'am, you are worried about these things, so you dismissed the hidden guards, right?"

Rong Huang pursed her lips and let out another long sigh.

Seeing this, Liu Qing hurriedly persuaded her again: "Your Majesty is receiving the Sacred Heart at this time, and becoming a queen is just around the corner. It would be a pity to leave the palace now."

"You're right." Rong Huang thought for a while, and decided to plan it alone for the time being, and then ask Liu Qing for some ways to avoid people's eyes when he thinks more thoroughly.She couldn't help it either. Although Niu Hulu's family was trustworthy, Ama and the others would definitely not let her leave the palace easily.

She waved her hand and said weakly, "Back off and call Rulan in."

Liu Qing responded, and left the room with her head bowed. After a while, Ru Lan, who was guarding the side room, came.Rong Huang nodded to her, and said lightly: "Come on, let's go to the East Wing."

Thanks to the emperor's grace, the Yikun Palace is very spacious. After several repairs, it will take a while to walk from the main hall to the east wing.Ru Lan pushed open the door of the East Wing for her, and saw that it was empty inside, everything was as usual.

Rong Huang was not surprised either, and sat down at the main seat with Ru Lan's hand in his hands. After Ru Lan closed the door, he said, "Come out."

There were only a few "shua, shua, shua" in my ears, and in the blink of an eye, there were six men in black standing in front of me.

Rong Huang was dissatisfied, and frowned, "Why are there four missing?"

The leader, Sun Zhuo, stood up and replied: "Master, the servant was worried that Yikun Palace's weak defense would be taken advantage of, so he kept four without authorization... This is also what the master meant, and those four shadows should not be easily dispatched at any time. .”

Rong Huang took a closer look, this person was handsome, he was a man at first glance, it was really aggrieved to be a dark guard, and he didn't know how her old fox, Ah Ma, managed to subdue him.

She admired her in her heart, but her face sank, and she slapped the table suddenly: "It's against you, who is your master, and you don't listen to my orders?"

Sun Zhuo hurriedly knelt down and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, calm down, it's not that the slave doesn't obey the master's order, it's just..."

"Just what?"

Sun Zhuo said in a low voice, "I'm just worried that Aunt Jingyi will betray you and spread false news, so I have to guard against it."

Rong Huang raised her brows slightly, her heart turned a thousand times.Although this person is just a small head of the secret guard, but his mind is so delicate... What should I do, what should I do...

In the past, she also had the idea of ​​retiring after success, but at that time she was about to be praised by Kangxi, and she just thought about it occasionally, and then forgot after thinking about it.But tonight was different, Kangxi's behavior this time made her firm her mind - go, must go, no matter where she fled to, she would never stay in this disgusting Forbidden City again.

In fact, it's not surprising that she made such a sudden decision tonight. Everyone in the world likes to control things in their own hands, and Rong Huang is no exception.Since she entered the palace, Kangxi only occasionally went to Nalan Huier's place under her arrangement, and another lucky Hesheli family was also in her plan.

But Ma Jia...Rong Huang really couldn't bear her having fun under Xuan Ye.With her current ability, it is not difficult to get rid of a Ma Jia family, but the palace has a long history, and after a Ma Jia family dies, it is inevitable that she will encounter even more annoying opponents.For example, the future De Concubine, Liang Concubine, etc. don't know what kind of characters they are. Could she kill all the women who oppose her?Even if she could, that wasn't the life she wanted.

So Rong Huang couldn't bear it anymore.Ma Jiashi is her bottom line for Xuan Ye, and Xuan Ye has repeatedly challenged her bottom line, so she doesn't have to bear it any longer.

Rong Huang also knew that from the emperor's point of view, Xuan Ye did nothing wrong, it was only natural to favor his concubine, not to mention his grandmother, the Empress Dowager, also agreed that he favored Ma Jia.

But Rong Huang couldn't bear it.This matter has nothing to do with right or wrong, since we can't get along well, it's a big deal and we just break up.

In order to make himself appear more calm, Rong Huang picked up the tea cup and took a sip in a leisurely manner, then placed the tea cup heavily on the table, and said coldly: "Did you see Mr. Nalan tonight? "

No one speaks.

Seeing this, Rong Huang sneered, grabbed the teacup and threw it down, and the hot tea hit Sun Zhuo all over.

"Pretending to be dumb, right? How did Ama raise you disobedient slaves?"

Sun Zhuo didn't change his face: "Master, calm down, they can't figure out your thoughts, so they don't dare to speak without permission. The guards are all rough people. I don't know if the master wants to say that they saw it or not. The slave is telling the truth. To be honest, the slave saw it."

Rong Huang's expression turned pale when he heard the words, and he nodded: "I saw it, why didn't you stop it, why didn't you report it?"

"This..." Sun Zhuo showed embarrassment, and explained: "Mr. Nalan, as a man, it is indeed inappropriate to come to Yikun Palace at night, but...according to what the servant saw, there should be a few secret guards behind him." , with Mr. Nalan's kung fu, it is impossible not to notice it. That's why the slaves did not act rashly, fearing that exposing themselves would cause trouble to the master."

Rong Huang frowned: "You mean...the Nalan family also arranged people around Rong Ruo?"

Sun Zhuo lowered his head: "Young Master Nalan is the eldest son of the family, so there is nothing wrong with Master Mingzhu doing this."

Rong Huang's heart trembled, and he suddenly understood something, and he couldn't believe it.

Thinking about it carefully, the Nalan family is also a century-old family, and it is not surprising that they have hidden guards like the Niu Hulu, Hesheli, and Ma Jia families.What made her unbelievable was Rong Ruo's attitude just now.

Although the dark guards are shadow-like existences, they are people with eyes after all.When Rong Ruo hugged her like that just now, the hidden guards of Nalan's family must have seen a little bit of it.what does he mean?Could it be that she wanted to express her feelings to Mingzhu...

While she was surprised, there was also a faint guilt in her heart.It seems that she underestimated Rong Ruo too much. If she knew that he had arranged for someone to show off, maybe she would not react so violently, and even hurt him...

However, although Rong Huang felt ashamed in his heart, he did not regret what he did.This matter was too complicated, and she still didn't want Rong Ruo to get involved - even though she hadn't made up her mind yet.

Since you can't give the same love, then don't give him hope.

Rong Huang rubbed the center of his brows, and waved his hands weakly: "Get back. You can tell me what happened tonight, Ah Ma."

Sun Zhuo was a little surprised: "Master, this..."

"Back off." Rong Huang closed his eyes, obviously not in the mood to say more.

Several dark guards looked at each other.

After they all disappeared, Rong Huang opened his eyes, showing a dazed expression.

She feels very helpless now, Liu Qing can't fully believe it, and Niu Hulu's family dare not use it, Rong Ruo... Although Rong Ruo has a heart, he is still too young to be her reliance.Rong Ruo's Ama Mingzhu is quite capable, but Mingzhu and her are only distant relatives, why should she help her?Mingzhu is cunning and scheming, she is the future "Master" of the Kangxi Dynasty, and it is impossible for her son and niece to do such a big thing that may lose their heads.

In the end, what should I do... If I rely solely on my own strength, it is not a problem to prepare property and a house outside the palace, but how to escape out of people's eyes and ears?She thought of the Gongdou TV series "Golden Branch Desire" that she had watched before. In the play, Concubine Chen and some little maids and guards wanted to escape from the palace but were all arrested. The final fate was nothing but a death sentence .If he was not fully sure, Rong Huang would never take such a risk.That will only make the relatives cry, and the enemies will be quick.

There is another way, which is to hide in a coffin like Er Chun at the end of the play... But that requires more conditions: first, the master must die; , there must be a huge change in the palace to be able to deceive people's eyes and ears.

In fact, the best way is to fake death, but is there really a "fake death drug" in this world?That should be something fictionalized in the novel.

Rong Huang was extremely embarrassed.

At this time, she didn't expect that a good opportunity has actually arrived.

Loved one
Rong Huang's canonization ceremony is coming soon.Because Kangxi didn't bother to get rid of Obai at this time, nor did he spend money to pacify San Francisco, and this was the first imperial concubine canonized in this dynasty, so Ronghuang's canonization ceremony was held very grandly.Not only the empress dowager who had been ill for a long time was invited, but even Rong Huang's parents and elder brother were invited.

Rong Huang hadn't seen his family for several years, and was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.But she didn't dare to show it, one was because of the royal demeanor, and the other was because of the thick makeup on her face, it was probably too troublesome to make up, and it would not be worthwhile to cry, so she gave up.

After the long and complicated canonization ceremony, there was a family banquet. Many wives came to congratulate and praised Rong Huang's gentle and weak mother-in-law with joy. Even the aunt Bayara felt that she had a good face .Seeing the beauty of Niu Hulu's family, the big families couldn't help but sigh with emotion. If they give birth to a beautiful daughter and send it to the palace, they may not be as good as the iron-blooded man who fought in the battlefield!
