Chapter 315: A lifesaver
In the Qianqing Palace, Kangxi not only went to the harem few days these days, but he didn't even turn over the signs, first, because he was busy with government affairs, he didn't have this time; second, there were accidents in the harem one after another, regardless of the size, there was no good thing, and he also felt unlucky; third, he always dreamed of the incident that his cousin (Queen Tong) mentioned when he was dying, and his heart was in turmoil, so he didn't have this mood.
He originally wanted to ban Concubine De's feet first, take advantage of this time to slow down, and wait for the limelight to pass before making plans, but he didn't want his plan to be good, the women in the harem, and even Concubine De did not cooperate with him, and they were poor and tossed one by one, so that the wind and waves that had not been suppressed were rising higher and higher, and in the end, even he was powerless to change.
Thinking of Concubine De, the already solid name of the disaster star, when Kangxi looked at the excerpts, his movements were no different from usual, but those who were familiar with him could sense the anger from his every move.
Li Dequan stood aside, clear about Kangxi's mood, but he was more glad that after he was sure that the matter was irreversible, he decisively asked Kangxi to ask for guilt, instead of holding on to the idea of wanting to make meritorious contributions and waiting for things to develop to the point of being out of control before he regretted it, long live the master is the master, and the ladies of this harem are also the masters, even if he has a little more face from others, he will not forget what his identity is.
"Long live the Lord, I'm tired of seeing the excerpt, why don't you drink a cup of tea and rest your eyes!" Li Dequan handed the freshly brewed tea to Kangxi and persuaded softly.
Kangxi put down the folds in his hand, no matter what was written in these folds, whether they were useful or not, he had to read them, approve them, and even give them appropriate evaluations, so as not to chill the hearts of the people below. He was obviously used to this, but now he lost this patience, reached out and took the tea handed to him by Li Dequan, took a sip, and the hot tea in his throat instantly relaxed his originally tense nerves a lot, "Li Dequan, how is the matter going?"
"Back to the Long Live Lord, the slave asked people to check, whether it is the Yonghe Palace, or the Si Creation Bureau, there is no problem, all this may really be a coincidence. Li Dequan lowered his head, his eyes flashed slightly, but his tone was very sincere.
Kangxi had a cold face, and the moment he put down the teacup, he put his hands together, and his right hand lightly turned the wrench on the thumb of his left hand, and said lightly: "I never believe in coincidences, but the matter of Concubine De really makes people feel a little unbelievable!"
So many people have sent people to check, one by one in vain, Kangxi doesn't believe in evil, so he just asked people to check it again, he doesn't believe the results found out by others, and the people under him find out, he doesn't believe it.
Li Dequan lowered his head and didn't speak, the result has been decided, no matter what is hidden in this, it has nothing to do with him, as long as it does not harm the interests of the Long Live Lord, what about the others who turn a blind eye? The servants in the palace, who has no grudges. It is said that there is a favor to be repaid, and there is a revenge to be avenged, he is a slave, this favor is repaid, this revenge will naturally be repaid, and people have to be repaid without anyone noticing.
That's right, the current Li Dequan is the chief manager of the Qianqing Palace, and he is no longer the thin little eunuch who was trampled on in the past.
Kangxi didn't want Li Dequan to answer, even if he had more thoughts in his heart, the facts were in front of him, he had to believe it if he didn't believe it, as for Concubine De's reputation, if he wanted to turn it around, I was afraid it would not be easy, so, he had to consider whether to give up one son or two sons?
The prince's matter is a lesson from the past, not to mention that he hasn't thought about it yet, even if he thinks about it, it is impossible for him to push Yinzhen forward at this time. His sons, all of them are old and disobedient, and each one has his own ideas, and he does things according to himself rather than his feelings as an Amma, so that he can only beat them obediently by his own means.
This is the dignity that belongs to the emperor, the throne, not to see who has the means to snatch it from him, but to see who he is willing to give to, but unfortunately there are not many people who understand this truth!
"Li Dequan. Kangxi suddenly opened his mouth and shouted, and when Li Dequan stepped forward, he commanded in a low voice: "Concubine De's side is like this first, the rest of the harem is closely watched by me, if this kind of thing happens again, I only ask." ”
"Huh. Li Dequan responded, and then knelt on the ground respectfully.
The women in this palace are all powerful, and one is more powerful than the other, and even one is more fake than the other, but no one is like Concubine De, who has done all the disgusting things, and wants to win a good reputation. No, someone shovels the uneven road, and someone takes care of the uneven things, after so many years, the smooth Concubine De Niangniang was finally planted.
Concubine De doesn't know this, she is now in a state of anxiety, desperate to change her situation, but because of the relationship between being struck by thunder, she is trapped in Yonghe Palace, and most of the people who have to use it can't enter and leave Yonghe Palace like her, plus there are many eyes staring at her in the open and in the dark, and it is inevitable to be tied up when doing things, and the effect can be imagined.
"Niangniang, I really can't find out what is on the side, and the emperor's people are also involved. Amber's voice trembled slightly when she said this, and she thought that if she was a little slower, she was afraid that she would have to deal with the people in charge of Li, and she was afraid that she would not be able to come back.
Concubine De glanced up at her, saw that her body trembled slightly, and said with a disdainful expression: "What are you afraid of! So many people in the harem stretched out their hands, and they didn't see the emperor blame, isn't it normal for this bitter lord in this palace to want justice?"
"Yes. Amber answered, but her calf couldn't stop trembling, the knife didn't stab herself, she never knew how much it hurt, she was really scared then, and now she is afraid, and she can't even slow down.
Concubine De, who lowered her head, naturally didn't pay attention to Amber's mood, her mood was not good at this time, and even worse, from being stunned by the thunder to now, things have been checked over and over again, whether it is her person or Yinzhen's person, she can't find a reason, and the more this is the case, the more worried she is.
As long as she is framed or calculated, she has a way to get rid of the impact of this matter, and it is even possible to seek the emperor's guilt or pity. But after checking for so long, it seems like providence for anyone to check, so what should she do?
Concubine De shook her head, her brows furrowed even tighter, she unconsciously pulled the handkerchief in her hand with both hands, and asked again: "What is the situation in the palace?
Hearing this, Amber pinched his palms hard, and tried to calm his emotions and replied: "The palace looks calm on the surface, but there are people in each palace who spread the matter of Niangniang, and there are many versions that have been added. ”
Concubine De suddenly reached out and lifted the teacup in her hand, and scolded angrily: "Li Dequan, a dog minion, since the emperor has given an order, he should deal with those low-mouthed slaves ruthlessly, if he is not ruthless, who will be afraid." In the final analysis, it's just that seeing that the palace is in trouble now, and down, one by one, whether it is a human or a ghost, they all want to step on it. ”
She should have known that those sluts in the palace, looking at her old fourteen, thought about stepping on her, and couldn't tell who did it, but now that she saw that it was done, she thought about condemning her in one fell swoop, but why did she do what they wanted.
The moment Concubine De lowered her head, the corner of her mouth raised a sarcastic smile, she could count step by step as the emperor to hold her to the concubine position in one fell swoop, so now she can also find a way to turn herself over, and even put the old fourteen to the throne.
"Niangniang......" Amber saw her expression hideous, and the moment she raised her head, she called softly, "Then what should the slave do next." ”
"Count the days, it's time. Concubine De glanced up at Amber and said lightly: "Let go of the investigation first, since the other party has been prepared, then we can't find out the reason no matter how much we investigate, instead of wasting our efforts in vain, it is better to think about lifting the ban first." ”
"Niangniang, this ......" Amber thought for a while and said: "Although I can't find anything now, but someone is staring, and the other party is not easy to do, maybe after a long time, I will find some clues, but if I don't check, the other party will take the opportunity to clear the clues that we may find, and it will be more difficult to check in the future?"
"You have found it thoroughly, but it's a pity that this palace knows about Long Live Lord. When Concubine De said this, Wan'er smiled: "This palace has not made a mistake from beginning to end, the blame is only that the palace is too unlucky, and it is hard to let the thunder struck the main hall of Yonghe Palace, and even the feet of this palace." ”
"If there is no child in this palace, Long Live Lord may directly dislike this palace, but this palace has a son, regardless of whether it is the fourth or the fourteenth, but for them, Long Live Lord will not give up this palace, and even excuse this palace. She said in her mouth, but her eyebrows kept wrinkling, and she said so, but things were not necessarily as she thought, "In addition, what we can't find out doesn't mean that the emperor can't find out." ”
If even the emperor can't find out, everything she is doing now is her last straw.
She really hates, but she also really wants to use it, and now in this situation, in addition to the past feelings, she really doesn't know what else can impress the emperor and plan for her, or for Yinzhen.
Amber didn't understand Concubine De's thoughts, but she was also persuaded by Concubine De's confident words, "What Niangniang said is that the slave maid thought about it." ”
"Come here. Concubine De didn't say it directly, but reached out to lift Amber in front of her, and whispered a few words in her ear when she lowered her head, Amber's eyes widened the more she listened, obviously frightened by Concubine De's words, but even so, she didn't dare to have the slightest objection, and even after Concubine De finished speaking, she knelt on the ground and said: "The slave understands, please rest assured." ”
"Well, you just have to do what Hongu tells you to do. Concubine De's eyes flashed, and a trace of entanglement flashed on her face, but she quickly returned to her previous decisiveness.
