Chapter 79: Excerpt of the Defense (1st Update)
The next day, that is, the second day after Kangxi returned to the palace, he was invited to Cining Palace by the Empress Dowager as soon as he got off the court. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The Empress Dowager threw the defense letter written by Zhao Yan on the table, "This is Jia Concubine's self-defense, the emperor can take a look!!" The old lady was a little angry.
But Kangxi had a solemn face, and he was extremely calm in his seriousness, he opened the fold, quickly glanced at it, and said: "Concubine Jia also presented me with a fold, and the description is almost the same......!" The meaning is almost the same: I don't bloom myself, I don't tease bees and butterflies. Kangxi was full of emotion in his heart, and Kangxi didn't feel strange when he received the self-defense excerpt, but this content made him sleepless in the middle of the night last night.
Therefore, at this moment, Kangxi's expression was a little tired, and his eyes were bloodshot.
The Empress Dowager stretched her old face and said, "In that case, when does the emperor plan to lift the palace closure order of Zhong Cui Palace?!"
Kangxi was silent for a moment, and then said, "Good nobleman...... Still unconscious at the moment. ”
The Empress Dowager endured her anger and said: "The cause and effect of the matter, the emperor also heard the Tong family complain, didn't the emperor believe her words?!"
Kangxi said: "Concubine Tong's words are indeed lacking in evidence. But...... Jia Concubine is suspicious. Therefore, before the suspicion is cleared, it is better to ask her to be grounded. ”
"Emperor!!" The Empress Dowager couldn't help but raise her voice a little, "Don't you care about the son of the concubine?!"
Kangxi's face was indifferent: "It's just grounded, and the concubine's share is still given to her." If Concubine Jia is really innocent, I will let her out. ”
"When will it be?!" Seeing that Kangxi's words were slightly loose, the Empress Dowager hurriedly asked.
Kangxi said: "Let's wait for the good nobles to wake up." ”
The wrinkles on the Empress Dowager's brows deepened a little, and the disgust in her eyes became a little thicker, "If she never wakes up, will Jia Concubine be grounded forever?!"
Kangxi said without hesitation: "Wei will definitely wake up!! If she doesn't wake up, she is the incompetent doctor! An incompetent person is not worthy of life!"
Looking at Kangxi's murderous expression, the Empress Dowager's face full of traces of time became darker and darker, and there was a wisp of sorrow mixed in the darkness, she lamented: "Xuan Ye, you don't want a magic barrier!"
Kangxi was slightly stunned, because since he ascended the throne, the empress dowager has never called him by name...... At this moment, he seemed to have returned to his childhood, the peaceful years that he grew up in Cining Palace.
Kangxi looked a little confused, and after a long time, he said long: "Huang Ma rest assured, in the heart of her grandson, there is nothing more important than Jiangshan Sheji." Although I love Wei, I am not enough to be a demon obstacle for her. ”
Kangxi sighed in his heart: The death of the first emperor is the biggest regret in the life of the empress dowager. Therefore, I am afraid that he will also follow in the footsteps of the imperial examination. And he also did not allow himself to go down the old path of the imperial examination...... As an emperor, it is the greatest sorrow that he can't even save the people he loves.
There was silence in the Cining Palace. The Empress Dowager wanted to suppress Wei's, but she couldn't really take her life. Because the Empress Dowager is also afraid, afraid that her grandchildren will be like her own sons. She can't let a woman ruin her grandchildren again!
Therefore, the Empress Dowager worked hard to arrange for newcomers to enter the palace, in order to make Wei's gradually fall out of favor.
Zhao Yan's entry into the palace was favored, which made the Empress Dowager see hope. The hope of the Empress Dowager is that the six palaces will be wet with rain and dew, and there will be no more favored people.
Originally, everything was going well, and the situation in the sixth house was gradually balanced, but Wei's pregnancy broke the hard-won balance......
The Empress Dowager's old eyes are cloudy, but the cloudiness has a deep desire for control......
The Empress Dowager, who has been in the palace all her life, hates the most that someone is out of her control. However, she had to admit that her grandson was more difficult to control than her son. He, like his father, had to master not only the former dynasty, but also the harem......
The Empress Dowager never wanted to control the government, in her heart, she was a woman after all, she would let go of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty at the right time to take charge of the court, and she retreated into the background, looking at the emperor she had cultivated herself, scolding Fang Xuan, and becoming a wise king in charge of the world. And the land of the harem is what the Queen Mother wants to control permanently.
Once upon a time, she was in control, but she lost her son.
Now she wants to be in control, but she doesn't want to lose her grandson again.
Moreover, the Empress Dowager is too old, so she is even more afraid that after she dies, Kangxi will do whatever she wants in the harem, and even the only superficial balance will be broken!!
The Empress Dowager felt a deep tiredness in her heart, "A collection of favors is also a collection of grievances." If you really like Webster, you shouldn't spoil her too much. ”
A faint stunned look appeared on Kangxi's face, the Empress Dowager really cared about Wei's coming, how could Kangxi not be surprised?
"Isn't Huang Ma disgusted with Wei's?" Kangxi asked.
The Empress Dowager did not answer Kangxi's words, but said calmly: "Only when the rain and dew are evenly stained can the jealousy of the six palaces be eliminated." Only when the resentment is eliminated can the harem be truly peaceful. Do you understand what it means to mourn?"
Kangxi said: "Of course my grandson understands this truth." Therefore, the grandson can also guarantee that even if the Wei family has children, she will not be promoted to the position. So, can you rest assured?"
The Empress Dowager naturally understood the meaning of Kangxi's words, and she couldn't help but show a little tiredness, "That's it, let it go! ”
Kangxi smiled, "In this way, the grandson has retired." ”
Looking at Kangxi's distant back, the Empress Dowager muttered, "I hope ...... You really know how to measure ......"
In the Zhongcui Palace, Zhao Yan watched the sunrise and sunset.
In the blink of an eye, she had been grounded for three days, and the defense was like a mud cow entering the sea, without any response.
Zhao Yan stood in the courtyard outside the hall, looking at the clump of phoenix tail bamboo, that was Kangxi's promise to her last year, and it was transplanted in the spring of this year.
The phoenix tail bamboo is "lush to the sun", so it is planted in front of the main hall with the most sunlight.
As a result, it grows excellently.
Bai Tan took the Yunjin cloak out and draped it on Zhao Yan's shoulder, and she said softly: "Niangniang, in this season, it's still a little cold in the morning. You might as well go back to the house and lie down for a while. ”
Zhao Yan shook her head slightly.
Bai Tan said again, "Niangniang, you don't have to worry too much. A good nobleman has a miscarriage, and the emperor will inevitably be angry, but you are just angry. When the noble person wakes up, he will definitely help you speak. When the time comes, the emperor will definitely let you out. ”
"Really?" Zhao Yan said lightly, "I have indeed helped a good nobleman a few times before, and it stands to reason that she should repay me." It's just that in the current situation, isn't it her best chance to get rid of me?"
In the palace, the most unpredictable thing is the human heart! Since she entered the palace, the Wei family has no longer favored the six palaces earlier, but is on par with her. Perhaps, Webster is also eager to return to his former favorite...... Regardless of whether she harmed her or not, Wei could take advantage of the situation and beg Kangxi to punish her severely.
Isn't this a good opportunity for Weis?
Bai Tan's face turned pale with fright, "You won't make a good noble person look like that kind of person......
Zhao Yan sighed faintly, "I hope she's not that kind of person." If the good nobleman is not stupid, he must guess that the Yiya clan is not coerced by her. Since she was not the one who killed the son in Wei's womb, how could Wei help the real murderer clear his name?
It's probably because I've been grounded for many days, but I'm thinking more and more.
Zhao Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
