Chapter 275: Concubine Xiang Loses Her Son
Hearing the emperor's panicked shout, the eunuchs and palace maids on duty immediately panicked, looking at each other and not knowing what to do.
"What's going on? But what happened to Your Majesty? β
It happened that Hama and Ning Xiang walked slowly outside the hall, and Hama immediately frowned when he saw their panicked appearance and asked eagerly.
As soon as a clever little eunuch saw Hama, he immediately came over: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty said that he was a little tired half an hour ago, so he went to the side hall to rest for a while, and we saw that Your Majesty was asleep before carefully retreating......"
"Pick it up!" Ha Ma urged with a straight face, and he had already faintly heard the angry voice of the emperor in the side hall.
The little eunuch's eyes flickered, and he suddenly made a rather presumptuous movementβhe boldly approached Hama and whispered a few words to him.
Judging from the little eunuch's expression, he was confident in his offending Hama, and he decided that his action would only be appreciated by Hama, not reprimanded.
Sure enough, Hama immediately showed a sudden expression when he heard this, and his eyes when he looked at the little eunuch also lit up, and he praised: "You have a delicate heart!" β
It turned out that when this little eunuch first entered the palace, he recognized a qualified old eunuch as his godfather, so he was exposed to a lot of secrets in the palace that ordinary people couldn't hear or see.
Among these anecdotes, there is one thing that they value the most, and that is the change of power.
The palace is the safest and least safe place in the world, and as incomplete eunuchs, they can only carefully see into the minds of the big people in the palace and guess their intentions in order to pursue their own interests.
The major events in the court are even more transcendent and become the survival skills that they must keep in mind, if they accidentally stand on the wrong team and follow the wrong person, they are likely to be suddenly whipped to death.
After all, even the emperor's main palace empress had been blatantly killed with poisonous wine, not to mention the existence of these cheap ants?
This clever little eunuch was the best of them all, and he thought he had seen the muddy situation clearly.
Even the nightmare that had plagued Timur for a long time, he had a shrew insight into the real cause, so he made a categorical judgment and whispered to Hama as a way of gaining appreciation: "Your Majesty, he must have dreamed of the Mighty Minister." β
How delicate Hama was, and in an instant he understood who the little eunuch was referring to.
As the most important confidant of Tu Timur, Hama was also extremely afraid of Boyan, and he witnessed the bloody scene in the palace back then.
The little eunuch received Hama's praise, and his heart was ecstatic, if he hadn't tried his best to restrain himself, he was afraid that the corners of his mouth would rise to the sky.
The little eunuch was thinking in his heart about how Hama would reward him, but suddenly heard Hama's cold and bitter voice sounding again: "Come on, drag this little bastard out and beat him to death with a cane." β
To a certain extent, in the eyes of this group of eunuchs and palace maids, Hama is an existence that surpasses Emperor Zhizheng.
Because the high-ranking emperor doesn't care if they are dead or alive, and he won't bother to remember who their names are, what their origins were before entering the palace, and other miscellaneous things, but Ha Ma will.
In the palace, except for Empress Qi and Pu Buhua, who can enjoy his respect as close allies of Hama, any other people of humble status who want to approach the emperor must be approved by him.
Today, it is a taboo for this little eunuch he doesn't know to be able to hear the emperor's whispering in his dreams, not to mention that this little eunuch is smart enough to dare to tell such a big truth.
"Spare your life! Spare your life! The little eunuch suddenly realized how ridiculous the mistake he had made, but unfortunately the eunuchs next to him did not relent, and held him tightly and dragged him out with three strokes and two blows.
Ning Xiang beside Hama is already a strange look at this, and being able to be carefully cultivated by Hama and find an opportunity to serve the emperor is enough to show how much she speaks and acts in line with Hama's heart.
Although she has now won the title of "Xiangfei", which is logically much more noble than Hama, she has always slowed down her pace and has not walked side by side with Hama.
Concubine Xiang didn't say a word from beginning to end, because she knew in her heart that Hama would take the initiative to tell her.
She shouldn't know, if she did, it might be a disaster.
After understanding the reason why Emperor Zhizheng fell into a nightmare, Hama held his chest high and continued to move forward.
There is a corridor to the side hall where the emperor is located, which is usually the place where Hama used to instruct Concubine Xiang on some important things.
"How is Concubine Xiang doing lately?"
As he got closer and closer to the emperor's location, Hama slowed down his pace, and his signature smile regained on his face.
"With the concern of Master Lao, Ning Xiang's body has been recuperated." Although Concubine Xiang has become a favored concubine, she is still as respectful as ever in front of Hama.
She knew that Hama never wanted to talk nonsense, and he asked about his physical condition at the moment, which was just to achieve his political goals, so Concubine Xiang answered very carefully.
"Queen Qi is jealous, I'm also doing this for your good, don't blame me in my heart." Hama let out a rare sigh and said something considerate.
Concubine Xiang subconsciously touched her abdomen, and tried to hold up a smile and replied: "Don't worry, my lord, Ning Xiang understands that no one else knows about this matter except for the imperial doctor you secretly sent to my dormitory and the palace maid who arranged it." β
"Alas!"
Hama sighed a few times in succession, "Recently, Your Majesty has summoned you to sleep more and more frequently, and when I am free, I have to take you to meet Queen Qi in person, as long as you lower your posture, she should not be too embarrassed for you in my face." β
Emperor Zhizheng loves women the most, but in the harem, there are very few concubines who can give birth to princes and princesses, which are from the handwriting of Queen Qi.
Concubine Xiang was repeatedly fortunate by the emperor, and coincidentally she was also pregnant with the dragon species, Hama knew that Queen Qi must intervene in this matter, rather than waiting for Queen Qi to send Pu Buhua to send wine to take Concubine Xiang's life, it is better to block the news in advance and erase the existence of this fetus.
"Don't worry, my lord, Ning Xiang knows what to do." Concubine Xiang replied cautiously.
Ha Ma took in her expression, couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic, and comforted: "As long as you pass the pass of Queen Qi, your title may be able to go further, and then your father and brother in the family will follow, and I will arrange a good errand for them in the court." β
