Chapter Ninety-Six: A Surprise Visit
Since the day of the fight, Yinzhen opened his heart and talked to Wu Xiuning, not only has a certain tacit understanding formed between the two, but even the feelings between each other seem to have changed, as if the feelings that they didn't want to admit before and didn't want to face were slowly recognized at this moment.
Although the words were not broken, the people around them could find that Yinzhen's attitude towards Wu Xiuning had changed greatly, and every time he arrived at Lanyue Xuan, that casual and natural attitude was not like the master's master, but like a husband who had returned home, slowly abandoning alienation and narrowing the distance between them.
Although Wu Xiuning was surprised by this change, she was more happy, it was better to be able to enter Yinzhen's heart than to be out all the time, and if she was included in his wings, many things would be solved, at least it would make some people have scruples.
She is not a person after all, if she wants to protect her children and protect the people around her, she must rely on it, and Yinzhen is her only choice, she must grasp it, as for the resentment of the previous life, to put it bluntly, he is responsible, she is also at fault, compared with each other, instead of making a defeat and cheapening others, it is better to want to open a little, change the problems between them, and strive to do the best.
Now the backyard of the Sibeile Mansion has fallen silent, but the atmosphere in the palace has become subtle, first Concubine De and Concubine Yi faced each other for some reason, in order to win or lose, and then developed into a competition for favor, and then the interests of the young concubines were damaged, fancy competition for favor, and finally the two sides faced off, the old and new faced each other, each with a strange move, for a while, the palace was very lively.
And Concubine De, on the one hand, wants to fight against Concubine Yi, on the other hand, she wants to suppress the new concubines, and then she has to curry favor with Kangxi, so that he can forget the previous unpleasantness, which can be described as exhausting, and in this case, Concubine De did not forget to order Mama Qi to instigate the battle in the backyard of Sibeile Mansion.
"Niangniang, the concubine and grandmother ask to see!" Linglong entered the house and reported.
Concubine De, who was resting on the beauty couch, opened her eyes, a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes, but she said very calmly on her face: "Let her in!"
After Linglong went out, the concubine came in, with only one grandmother by her side.
"Concubine De Niangniang, please say goodbye!" the concubine glanced at Concubine De, who was leaning on the beauty couch, and saluted.
"No courtesy! Why does the concubine have time to come to my Yonghe Palace today?" Concubine De's face was not smiling, her tone was casual, thinking that there were many people who had offended during this time, and she thought that everyone had a different purpose.
This concubine is the most special existence in the palace, at the beginning of entering the palace, she was expected to take care of the prince, not to say that she came for the queen's position, at least it was also the position of the concubine, but who would have thought that a concubine position let her stay for several years, and when Kangxi was crowned for 20 years, she just got a concubine, and then fell silent. It's Concubine De, a clothed palace maid who stood out from it and became one of the four concubines, and now she still holds palace power, so it's no wonder that there are concubines in the palace, and every time she has the idea of not moving, she is the first to rush to her.
This time, the conflict between Concubine De and Concubine Yi is a bit big, without Kangxi's bias, Concubine De will inevitably suffer a lot of losses even if her means are high, after all, no matter how fast the development of the Wuya clan is, it can't fight the profound Guo Luoluo family, and the trouble is big, Guo Luoluo's family has confidence, and the Wuya family, who is still clothed, has no confidence to really follow them (Kangxi only raised Concubine De alone). Concubine De, who was a little anxious, also looked a little wilted because of this.
The concubine is coming to Yonghe Palace now, is it your idea?
"Look at what Concubine De said, the concubine couldn't figure it out before, complained all day long, missed a lot of things, and never visited Concubine De Niangniang, now, the concubine has figured it out, and she knows that she is wrong, so she naturally wants to visit Niangniang, and she looks forward to being close to Niangniang!"
Concubine De glanced at the concubine with a smile, the words were good, but her waist couldn't bend down, and she still wanted her to carry her with such an attitude, which was really ridiculous!
If you ask for someone, you have to have an attitude of begging for someone, she doesn't mind promoting newcomers, after all, she is not young, and she is not as beautiful as before, Kangxi came to her, and it is too much to be favored once in three times, and if she continues, I am afraid that it will be gone once, and in the end all that is left is the decency given by Kangxi!
But there are also conditions for carrying her, why should she pull the other party when she can't bring her benefits, is it because she is no longer favored?
"Yes, I don't think that's the case, the concubine is also an old man in the palace, I don't need to say more about the rules, as for closeness, it also depends on whether the two sides have fate!" Concubine De sat up, and the meaning of her words was also very clear, there must be fate, that is, there must be relative dedication, after all, pies will not fall from the sky.
"Niangniang's meaning is also understood by the concubines, but Niangniang has had a lot of troubles recently, and the concubines are willing to share their worries for Niangniang. The concubine was very confident when she said this, and she thought that she had been prepared for it.
Concubine De's eyebrows raised slightly, obviously she didn't expect that the concubines would be willing to charge, the concubines in Yonghe Palace, except for herself, others have rarely stood out since Concubine Min died of illness, not because she is not beautiful, but because she has the heart of Kangxi, otherwise Concubine De would not be pressed by Concubine Yi at this moment.
She is indeed anxious to find someone to disperse Concubine Yi's firepower, but this kind of thing does not mean that achievements can be achieved, and the candidates are very important.
"Is it? How does the concubine's sister plan to share the worries of the palace? Is it to resist Concubine Yi head-on, or to help suppress those ignorant newcomers?"
"It depends on what the mother commands!"
"Sister Concubine is wrong, not to see how the palace orders, but to see what Sister Concubine does, some things are useless just verbal guarantees, it depends on actions!" Concubine De is not polite at all, she is not the kind of person who is affectionate, she has always seen the result of doing things.
"What Niangniang means, the concubine understands. Concubine Yuan didn't want to rely on these three words to convince Concubine De.
"It's good that my sister can understand. Concubine De picked up the teacup, and the concubine didn't linger any longer when she saw this, and got up to say goodbye very interestingly.
Looking at the departing concubine, Concubine De did not feel happy, but frowned on the contrary.
She can get to this point, not only by luck, in addition to means, caution is essential, and she is more cautious than anyone else, so naturally she will not easily believe in the concubine's surrender. But it's one thing not to believe it, and it's another thing to take advantage of it, after all, her current situation is not good, and her repeated attacks on Yinzhen have angered Kangxi, otherwise Kangxi, who has always been partial to her, would not suddenly leave it alone.
According to the analysis of the current situation, it is unlikely that she will successfully fight back against Concubine Yi and suppress the new concubines. Concubine Yi's own means and the family behind her should not be underestimated, even fighting for her son, people are not less than her, and even when it comes to pampering, she is more prosperous than her, if she doesn't know Kangxi's mind better than others, she is afraid that she will fall out of favor early like Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui.
However, it is impossible for her to give up, whether it is for Concubine Yi, the new concubine, or for Yinzhen, an unfilial son, Concubine De doesn't want to let go, and even because of her current situation, her hatred for Yinzhen is more than that of Yifei and other opponents!
If it weren't for Kangxi's staring, she would have been troubled by Concubine Yi and othersBody, she will definitely not be so simple, as for Mama Qi's side, a few words of advice, it is just a backhand, in case she finds an opportunity!
"Niangniang?" Mama Yu came in from outside, and she frowned when she heard that the concubine had come, and when she saw Concubine De's frowning, she felt that things were not so simple.
"Mama is here. Concubine De came back to her senses, glanced at Mama Yu who was waiting beside her, and briefly told her the ins and outs of the matter, just to hear her opinion.
Mama Yu didn't expect that the concubine would actually come to Toucheng, anyone who heard this would feel that there was a problem, after all, compared to Concubine De, the background of the Hesheri clan had few enemies, especially when the prince's position was stable.
"What do you think?"
The old slave thought that instead of refusing, it was better to explore the truth of the concubine first, after all, there are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves. Mama Yu pondered for a moment before she said.
"Then let's do this first, let our people keep an eye on it, and see what tricks the concubine is playing?"
"Huh. ”
