Concubine slaps face daily

Chapter 202 Concealment
With Yun Xi's help, every move of the Empress Dowager attracted more attention. All the forces in the palace turned their attention to the Palace of Compassion and Ning. For a while, whether it was the attention-grabbing Yun Xi or the newly-raised Wei Chang Now, it is slowly becoming less noticeable.

When it comes to posthumous positions, there are many concubines in the palace who are interested, although the most likely ones are the Tong family and Niu Yulu's family. After all, these two families have a queen mother, and a family has a successor, and the background is the same , coupled with the fact that they both have a daughter in the position of imperial concubine, they just can't do it if they don't want to.

In addition, the Hesheli family of the Empress Yuan was also constantly moving. Although the noble daughters sent in by their family hadn't done anything yet, even if they wanted to keep the crown prince's position, they couldn't sit on the sidelines and let others seize the opportunity.As a result, the entire harem can be described as undercurrents surging, with constant movements.

Because of the news sent by Qiaoying and Long Wei, Kangxi can understand what Yunxi did even if he didn't know everything. After all, he is too busy now. There is no guarantee that it will be protected, after all, he has only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg of the power of the Empress Dowager, so he was so frightened, who knows how powerful that hidden in the dark is.

It's fine as it is now, the water in the front court and the rear palace has been muddied, everyone has their own little calculations, and the situation is getting more and more chaotic, but it is more and more beneficial to him.He was originally worried that he would cause their mother and son to be in danger because he could not take care of their mother and son because of the upward affairs, but now it seems that the girl is more capable than he thought, at least her little head is faster than anyone else.

Kangxi really doesn't like people with deep plans, but Yun Xi's move seems to be clever, it can solve the problem without hurting others, and it can be regarded as the best of both worlds.As for the impact of this matter, in the past, Kangxi would definitely have objected, and even blamed Yun Xi, but now, since he chose to stand on the opposite side of the Empress Dowager, it is impossible for her to consider everything for her, after all they Sooner or later, grandparents and grandchildren will face each other!
As the king of a country, Kangxi doesn't want to be like the previous emperor, where everything is decided by others, and even whoever favors a woman or whoever has an heir has to be nodded by others, so what is the use of him as an emperor!

When Kangxi saw this, he even secretly helped Yun Xi, making the wind blow stronger and more people involved, and Hun naturally became more muddy.Those who don't know can only follow the trend, but those who know, like Kangxi and others, take advantage of this opportunity to eradicate dissidents and protect their own power.

On the side of the Compassionate Ning Palace, the Empress Dowager's illness is getting worse and worse, and sometimes she will faint, which makes Aunt Su Ma very worried. Coupled with all kinds of rumors circulating outside, even if she intends to stop it, she still can't. Unable to solve it, it involves the struggle for succession, what can she do as a little servant, and the empress dowager's illness is getting worse and worse, for a while, she doesn't know whether she should report this matter to the The Empress Dowager knows.

Aunt Su Ma tried every means to erase the impact of this incident, but the temptation of the latter position was too great, she could not stop other people's ideas after all, and even when the method she came up with was repeatedly overthrown, It also made the rumors more and more intense. Today, even she herself is not sure whether she is capable of handling this matter, but the imperial doctor said that the empress dowager's illness should not be stimulated at all, otherwise it will affect life. number.

Aunt Su Ma repeatedly comforted herself in her heart, as long as she expressed her attitude at the right time and contacted the ministers outside the palace, this matter would definitely be suppressed, after all, the empress dowager's prestige was placed here.

Seeing that it was time for the Empress Dowager to drink the medicine again, La Aunt Su Ma looked at the other people who were ready for battle, sighed softly, took the medicine, and told them in a low voice to prepare a bowl of honey water, and served it The first few steps waited for her to drink medicine.

In the past, no matter how bad the empress dowager's temper was, she drank the medicine in one gulp, but now she can only drink the medicine in the bowl several times, and the empress dowager's expression is so decadent that she seems to have aged 20 years overnight. The black hair that was originally only mixed with some white hair has now become almost completely white, which makes La Aunt Su Ma feel distressed when she sees it, but there is nothing she can do about it.

After the Empress Dowager drank the medicine, she felt a sense of suffocation in her chest, and the lingering bitterness in her mouth made her frown. When she turned her head, she seemed to think of something again, and looked at it with doubts. Ask Lagu Su Ma beside the bed: "Su Ma, it seems that the emperor hasn't come to the Compassion Ning Palace to pay his respects to Ai's family for a few days, right?"

During this time, the empress dowager's illness became more and more serious, and she was groggy. She couldn't even take care of the original arrangements, so she couldn't care about Kangxi. He never slacked off for a day, even if she refused to greet her, he would come to see her, let alone when she was unwell, and in the past few years, the conflict between their grandparents and grandchildren has become more and more obvious, the emperor did not say that he would come every day , would come here every now and then, but she thought about it for a long time, and suddenly realized that she had been ill for such a long time, and the emperor didn't seem to come a few times. .

Aunt Su Ma paused her hand holding the bowl, and her expression on her face seemed a little hesitant, "Ge Ge forgot, the army returned to Beijing recently, and the emperor is going to reward the three armies. He is very busy, so you can excuse me. I didn’t go into the harem too busy, but I sent someone over to inquire about Gege’s recent situation, and asked the servants to take good care of Gege so that Gege can recover soon.”

Faced with the empress dowager whose sickness has not faded, Aunt Su Ma really dare not tell the truth, because the emperor's attitude is mostly due to the empress dowager's stubbornness, and she is not easy to blame, after all, what the empress dowager wants is the emperor's If he didn't react at all to the lives of his wife and children, she would feel cold instead, but what made her even more troubled was that the Empress Dowager was her master, and she should have stood by her side, but when she thought of Zhaopin's mother and son Santiao She felt hesitant about her life. If it wasn't for this, when she found out about the rumors, she should have reported to the Empress Dowager as soon as possible, instead of dragging on to the current dilemma and making it even more difficult to speak.

In fact, not long after the rumors spread, Aunt Su Ma had already noticed. After all, because of the power of the Empress Dowager in the harem, any trouble in the harem could not be hidden from the Palace of Compassion, let alone courtiers outside the palace.Obviously she had the opportunity to cut it off, but she didn't want the empress dowager to continue.

"Is that really the case? Su Ma, what are you hiding from Aijia? Or did the emperor make another decision?" The Empress Dowager suddenly stared at Aunt Su Ma, with suspicion and dissatisfaction in her tone, asked in a hateful voice.

It is true that she has become less sensitive than before because of her illness, but this does not mean that she is stupid. Kangxi was brought up by her, and she still knows a little about his temperament. If it weren't for what happened again Even if their grandparents really broke their faces, even if he pretended to show others, he would still come to this Palace of Compassion and Peace every day.If she didn't come now, there must be something she didn't know broke her plan?
Could it be that something happened to Concubine Zhao's mother and son?If this is the case, she would be rather happy. After all, an emperor cannot have weaknesses, let alone have true feelings. If Concubine Ruo Zhao really walked into the emperor's heart, her death now can be regarded as a wake-up call for the emperor, letting him understand that the emperor can't. Sincerely, it's scary because I'm afraid that things are not what she thinks!

"Ge Ge calm down, how could this servant hide something from you! As for the emperor, he met Prince An. I think the emperor did not let go of the last full moon banquet." Seeing the empress dowager's gloomy face, Aunt Su Ma looked gloomy. She was about to explode, so she immediately spoke to calm her emotions.

"Oh, is that so?" The Empress Dowager stared at Aunt Su Ma with her cloudy eyes, obviously having some doubts about her words, although she knew in her heart that with Kangxi's vengeful character, she would definitely do such a thing , but she doesn't believe that it's just that this matter doesn't take up all of Kangxi's time. After all, he is just Prince An, so it won't make Kangxi rush, unless he has other plans, but knowing that there is a problem, she herself is bedridden , so that even if she wanted to inquire, it would be difficult to find out the truth.

Aunt Su Ma met the Empress Dowager's dubious eyes, forced a smile and said: "How could the servant lie to Gege? Although the emperor had a misunderstanding with Gege, he had already reconciled with Gege before, even if Gege had other plans, but after the plan Before it is done, the emperor will not alienate Gege for no reason." Seeing the empress dowager's expression stretched by her words, Aunt Su Ma couldn't help but continued: "I am afraid that the emperor and Prince An will soon be victorious, and it may be At the critical moment, the emperor didn't personally come to the Compassion Ning Palace to greet you."

Most of what Aunt Su Ma said was true, but she didn't dare to tell the whole thing. After all, the series of changes caused by the rumors must have been a fatal blow to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager spent a lot of thought in order to win over those nobles from the family. Now just because of a rumor, the originally solid alliance tends to be disbanded. How dare she speak about such a thing.

The Empress Dowager didn't know what Aunt Su Ma was thinking, but she was very disappointed when she heard that Zhaopin's mother and son were not dead, but she temporarily let go of Kangxi's failure to come to the Palace of Compassion.It's just that her body was already weak. With such agitation, the empress dowager, who was weak, became even more physically weak. She leaned against the head of the bed, panting non-stop, "Prince An really forgot how to measure, the emperor wanted to use this to shock her. It is also a good way to take pictures of the officials, I am afraid that the emperor will do too much and cause the clan and princes to retaliate, this really makes the Ai family feel uneasy!"

The Empress Dowager did not object to Kangxi's dealing with Prince An. It can be said that as long as the harem was not involved, the Empress Dowager still supported Kangxi's decision. It was as if she opposed the withdrawal of the domain at the beginning, but Kangxi insisted, and she finally agreed.But now that the harem is involved and Horqin's interests are involved, she naturally can no longer agree as easily as before. After all, Horqin is her root.
