Empress Xiao Zhaoren in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 85

"Sister calm down, let's have a cup of tea first." Concubine Yi motioned to the close maid to hand over the teacup, and said in a harmonious voice: "The queen mothers of the two palaces are protecting her now, and this matter has to be discussed in the long run."

"A long-term plan, and a long-term plan! I am a concubine, you are a concubine, and we still have the imperial concubine and empress to make decisions, why should we bear the anger of a little nobleman?" Concubine Hui recalled the smug face of Rong nobleman two days ago. The way he looked, he couldn't help but feel angry. "I endured it for so many days, and finally came up with a solution. I'm here to tell you."

"Sister, tell me."

"Like what I said last time, the ancestors were interested in people from the Ma Jia family who could have sons. But I heard that many daughters of the Ma Jia family died inexplicably within two days of birth... I I suspect that there is a clue here. But this matter is a family matter of their Ma Jia clan, and it is not easy for me to take action, but it made me realize the fact that the Empress Dowager attaches great importance to the emperor's heirs."

Concubine Yi nodded, thinking silently: Well, nonsense, saying it is the same as not saying it.

Seeing Concubine Yi nodding, Concubine Hui thought she agreed with her own thoughts, and became more and more proud: "My Baoqing is my heart, and I must not touch it. Right now, the only pregnant concubines in the palace are the imperial concubine, and she is also a millionaire. You can't move at all. Mr. Ronggui won't be so stupid as to make fun of his own son, so..."

Concubine Yi's heart tightened: "Sister wants to treat Second Elder Brother...?"

The second elder brother has been raised by Concubine Yi for quite some time. Although Concubine Yi considers that he is Hesheli's child and is not close to him, they still live under the same roof anyway, so it is inevitable that there will be some affection.

Concubine Hui said as it should be: "Otherwise? We can only let Ma Jiashi take action against the second elder brother, so that the Empress Dowager and the others can completely turn against her!"

"What is the motive of Ronggui doing this?" Concubine Yi frowned.

"She wants to help her son sit on the throne."

"But the emperor is now in his prime, and he doesn't intend to establish a prince..."

"Sister," Concubine Hui squinted her eyes, "You don't mean to miss the second elder brother, do you? You can think clearly, he is the son of Hesheli. If the imperial concubine knew that you defended him like this, wouldn't she? Are you feeling cold?"

Concubine Yi panicked all of a sudden: "No, sister, she won't..."

"Why can't she? Sister, you haven't become an eunuch yet, so you don't know. Who doesn't want her child to become a dragon among men who is an eunuch in this world? In the past, the imperial concubine treated you kindly to the second elder brother." The reason why she doesn't care about it is because she has no children. Now that she is pregnant, do you think she will stay out of it?"

Concubine Yi bit her lip, feeling tangled in her heart.But in the end, she still had no choice but to ask in a low voice: "What is Sister Hui planning to do?"

Concubine Hui immediately smiled when she heard the words: "As long as my sister agrees, this matter will be easy!"

To be honest, Concubine Hui's idea is not perfect, but there is still a possibility of success.Because she didn't intend to poison the second elder brother herself like the Hesheli family framed Ronghuang back then, but to find a way to lure Ronggui to take action...

Tat for tat, back then the Hesheli family used Ma Jia's child as a bait to plot against others, but now times have changed, and the Hesheli family's son has instead become a bait to confuse Ma Jia's.

Hershey failed to close his eyes when he died.If she saw this scene, would she turn into a lonely ghost and come back for revenge?I just sigh that there must be a cause for everything. Hesheli and her son were reduced to fish on the chopping board. Isn't it their own fault?

However, Concubine Yi still couldn't be ruthless because of her innocence... So she secretly told Rong Huang about this matter.

kill

Soon after Rong Huang woke up the next morning, he heard De'an, the chief eunuch of Yikun Palace, announce at the door that Concubine Yi had arrived.

Rong Huang didn't take it seriously, yawned lazily, and heard Concubine Yi laughing at her: "People with bodies are different, sister wakes up so late."

Rong Huang smiled and didn't answer, and said calmly: "Find a place to sit by yourself."

"Let me comb my sister's hair!" Concubine Yi came over and took the wooden comb from Rui Lan's hand without waiting for Rong Huang's answer.Ruilan was stunned for a while, not knowing what to do, she saw her master smiled warmly: "It is my honor to let the dignified Concubine Yi be my hair-dressing maid."

"Sister's mouth is really unforgiving. I don't know if my little elder brother will be as sharp-mouthed as you in the future."

"Sharp teeth are not a good thing. As the heir of the emperor, I still hope that he can be more tactful and sophisticated. Don't be like me. He can't eat well in the palace." In fact, Rong Huang also has self-knowledge. If she is not Ye Bilong's daughter, If she was born with a good appearance, with her own ability, she would not be able to get the seat of the imperial concubine at all.

But there are no ifs in this world, since she has dressed up as the princess of Niu Hulu's family and has the skin of the most beautiful woman in the capital, she naturally deserves all of this.

It could be considered as a way to thank Ye Bilong and his wife for their kindness in nurturing this body. Rong Huang wanted to do something for them before leaving, so as not to let those cheap parents suffer.

"Sister, don't worry, with such a good mother like you, my little nephew will definitely be outstanding."

Rong Huang raised his head to look at her, and said with a light smile, "Why is your mouth so sweet today?"

Concubine Yi looked at her eyes with a smile on her face, she couldn't help but feel emotional, is this the so-called brilliance of motherhood?After she was pregnant, Rong Huang seemed to be more beautiful, and her beauty became more and more dazzling. No wonder the emperor always ran to Yikun Palace several times a day even if she didn't want to sleep with her.

Speaking of the child, she thought of her second elder brother again, and couldn't help blurting out: "Sister, I have something to tell you."

Seeing her serious expression, Rong Huang nodded, and told the palace servants beside him: "Everyone go down first."

After the screen faded away, Concubine Yi told about Concubine Hui's visit to her, and added a sentence at the end: "Sister Hui said that I don't need to tell you, I'm afraid you will be hurt..."

Rong Huang smiled lightly, no joy or anger could be seen on his face. "Sad God? If she poisons the second elder brother to death, I will be in trouble!"

"Sister?" Concubine Yi didn't understand.

"No, the second elder brother must have nothing to do, at least not now! Jinglin, when did she make an appointment with you?"

"She said that it should not be too late, and I will act today. In order to visit the third elder brother, Ronggui will go to the Palace of Compassion and Serenity every day. Sister Hui said that when the nobleman comes out of the Palace of Compassion and passes by the Imperial Garden, he will take the second elder brother Hold it there..."

"Okay." Rong Huang quickly stood up, "Let's go to the Royal Garden!"

"My sister hasn't finished wearing her beaded flowers yet!"

"What time is it, why are you still wearing pearl flowers?" Rong Huang raised his voice to call Rui Lan, and was about to rush out while holding Concubine Yi's hand.Concubine Yi was afraid that she would bump into her, so she hurriedly stopped in front and said, "Sister, what are you doing in such a hurry? Mrs. Rong has to wait until noon to come out of the Palace of Compassion and Peace!"

Rong Huang shook his head and said: "Concubine Hui must have expected that you would be soft-hearted, and it is likely that the second elder brother has been taken away by this time. Silly sister, you are now the second elder brother's concubine, and if the second elder brother has any troubles, you will Can you do it alone?"

Hearing what she said, Concubine Yi panicked a little, and the two sisters rushed to the Imperial Garden in a hurry, and sure enough, on the road leading to Zhongcui Palace, they found the second elder brother who was only served by a young eunuch.Just as Rong Huang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Concubine Yi yelling from the side: "It's not good, Second Elder Brother has a fever!"

"Maybe it's because of the wind and cold. Sister, take the second elder brother back quickly and send the imperial doctor to take a look."

"No, empress!" Before Concubine Yi could answer, a beauty in palace attire came out from behind the flowers, it was Concubine Hui who planned this matter. "Your Majesty, excuse me for talking too much, Mr. Rong has no good intentions for the child in your womb. If we don't act first, you will be the one who suffers in the future!"

Rong Huang took a deep breath to calm down, and then said: "I know Ronggui is not a good person, but the second elder brother can't die now... Listen to me, if you want to get rid of Ronggui, there is a better way .”

"Your Majesty, are you serious?" Concubine Hui asked suspiciously.

"Of course, what did I lie to you for?" Rong Huang was relieved when he found the second elder brother, "This is not a place to talk, let's talk about this matter when we go back."

Keeping Second Elder Brother behind means that Rong Huang has made up his mind, if he gives birth to a son, then he will stay in the palace and be with Second Elder Brother as companion.According to the official history, Concubine Yi was originally the adoptive mother of the fourth elder brother Yinzhen.If the fourth elder brother becomes the son of Empress Xiaozhaoren's dystocia and is handed over to Empress Xiaoyiren to raise him, then he has nothing to do with Concubine De, and there will be more times when he will compete with the brothers in the future One penny.

Although she felt sorry for her child, if she stayed by Xuan Ye's side to take care of the child, Rong Huang would feel worse than death.She couldn't serve the emperor, and she would definitely have conflicts with Xuan Ye, which would actually implicate her children.This is completely different from the situation in modern society where couples maintain a superficial marriage for the sake of their children.
