Chapter 344: Self-inflicted
Nichuhe pondered and said, "It's that kind of folk legend. ”
The palace maid's face froze and she did not speak.
Nichuhe couldn't help but regret it.
Also, these people were selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to come in, either they are the daughters of official eunuchs, or the daughters of good families, and they don't go out of the door, and they don't step out of the second door.
When I was furthest from home, I entered the palace, where did I know those stories?
Nichuhe ignored her and drank tea in silence.
The palace maid glared at Wanying, who had been talking happily with the concubine before, a little unpleasantly.
Obviously, Wanying and the concubine chatted so well, why did her concubine lack interest?
Wan Ying turned a blind eye to this.
She hadn't heard any of these stories, so she couldn't interject.
But the concubine's preferences are quite special, which woman likes this kind of story? Who hasn't grown up watching those folk stories of crazy men and women?
Maybe this is the reason why the emperor loves the concubine?
Wanying couldn't figure it out, so she didn't think about it anymore.
Yongzheng is finally back.
Nichuhe hurried up to meet him, curtsied, and complained, "Why is it so late?" ”
expressed deep dissatisfaction with waiting for him for so long, rather than waiting, it is better to go to sleep, but he can't leave when he comes, and he can't sleep first.
The emperor has this privilege, and the concubines have to wait for him.
Yongzheng chuckled and took her hand, "I came here as soon as I was done, why didn't I read a book for a while?" ”
Nichuhe muttered, "What's there to see?" The eyes are tired, and the concubines just listened to their stories, but they are really boring. ”
She talked about the story she had just heard, and her evaluation of the story, and she was disgusted.
Yongzheng listened funny, "Who only likes to listen to strange things like you?" But those stories are really bad, and it's easy to be sentimental when you listen to them too much. ”
Ni Chuhe agrees very much, most of the women who love to listen to these stories fall in love with men's flowery intestines, sweet words, and are coaxed into confusion, and in the end, they don't hurt themselves?
"The concubine has heard a story, which is very interesting." Nichuhe glanced at him with a smile.
Yongzheng raised his eyebrows, looked at her suspiciously, and fell into her eyes, his eyes were slightly deep.
The palace maid waited for the two of them to wash their wide clothes, and Ni Chuhe did not speak for the time being.
When the two of them rested, the palace maids put down their tents and retreated, and Yongzheng put his arms around her and asked, "What kind of story?" ”
Ni Chuhe ignored the movements of his hands and said the story he knew, "It's the story of Fahai and Xiaoqing, uh, it's not Tong Jia's Fahai, it's a monk, have you heard the story of Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian?" ”
Yongzheng hummed, his eyes dark, staring wistfully at the looming, chattering mouth in the darkness.
Ni Chuhe is talking about Fahai subduing demons and eliminating demons, and after pressing Bai Suzhen under Leifeng Tower, Xiaoqing vowed to kill Fahai in order to take revenge.
However, in the process, Fahai and Xiaoqing fell in love with each other, one is a monk who subdues demons and destroys demons, and the other is a demon destined to be surrendered.
Of course, the final result is that people and demons do not end well, Xiaoqing fell in love with Fahai, and was entangled in her heart and couldn't avenge her sister, and she didn't want to be accepted by her beloved, so she self-destructed the demon pill and her soul was scattered.
Due to the loss of Xiaoqing, Fahai became confused about the matter of subduing demons and eliminating demons, and he was no longer qualified to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
It's a sad ending, but it's a lot of fun.
Isn't the relationship between a monk and a demon more tortuous and interesting than the story of the infatuated men and women of the scholars and young ladies in the folk?
Yongzheng frowned and said: "Since you are a monk, you shouldn't have this feeling, just a relationship that shouldn't exist." ”
Ni Chuhe rolled his eyes, "Monks are also human beings, so monks are not allowed to have feelings?" The concubine felt that it was precisely because Fahai had feelings that he became a flesh-and-blood person, not the machine that blindly subdues demons and destroys demons. ”
"Machines?" Yongzheng frowned.
Nichuhe secretly regretted his words and said with a smile: "It's like a marionette, it will only do things according to the instructions of its master, and has no thoughts of its own. ”
Yongzheng didn't say anything more and concentrated on doing what he wanted to do.
Nichuhe had no chance to speak.
……
In such a plain white and calm winter, another thing happened.
Zhang promised to have a miscarriage.
It happened suddenly.
It is said that Zhang promised and Guo promised to meet again, and the two had a quarrel.
In fact, it is better to say that it is a quarrel, but it is better to say that Guo promised to unilaterally insult.
Zhang promised to be timid and cowardly, never quarreled with anyone, and every time he met Guo Promise, he didn't dare to talk back.
This time, for some reason, Zhang Yu suddenly fell.
It is not yet three months, the tire is unstable, and it is easy to have a miscarriage.
It happened that Guo promised to be there at that time, and this matter naturally became Guo's promise's fault.
Guo promised to be banned for three months.
It can be regarded as a fall from grace in disguise.
Three months later, where will the emperor remember such a person?
There is also a loss of Concubine Qi in this matter, Guo promised to be her person, and it was a tool used to fix her pet, and now Guo promised to be unlucky, and it also caused Concubine Qi to lose a chess piece.
But worse is yet to come.
Guo promised the palace maid Chunxi next to him to secretly send the letter to the queen, and told whether Guo promised to intentionally trip Zhang Promise or was instructed by Concubine Qi, Xichun heard with his own ears that it was the people around Concubine Qi who instructed Guo to agree, and asked Guo Promise to shut up.
Someone testified that the queen gave the emperor.
Yongzheng directly ordered Concubine Qi to be demoted to a concubine, and Guo promised to be demoted to an official woman.
The official woman is between the concubine and the palace maid, and she is the woman with the lowest rank in the harem, in fact, she is almost the same as the palace maid, in addition to doing the same rough work as the palace maid, she also has one more obligation than the palace maid: serving the bed.
It is a palace maid who has the obligation to sleep.
finally sealed the concubine, and now she has been reduced to a concubine, and Concubine Qi is going to vomit blood this time.
Ni Chuhe felt that it was wrong, although there were witnesses, but human witnesses could also be bought, she felt that although Concubine Qi was not a good person, it would not do her any good to harm the child that Zhang promised.
It was Concubine Qi and the Guo family who were unlucky in this matter, mainly Concubine Qi, but there were many people who benefited.
Maybe it's someone who has a grudge against Concubine Qi.
But there are many concubines who are not on good terms with Concubine Qi, I can't tell which one it is, Concubine Mao, Concubine Ning, including her, even the queen is at odds with Concubine Qi.
It's just that the queen holds her identity and disdains to embarrass Concubine Qi.
cough, Concubine Qi is really a failure, and most of the people in the harem have grievances with her, so they can't complain about being framed.
It's self-inflicted.
The matter passed quickly, and no one brought it up again.
A snowfall ushered in the spring of the fifth year of Yongzheng.
The weather is warm and cold, and the spring plums stand on the branches, adding a touch of color to the garden that has not yet added new ideas.
The long-prepared southern tour was finally put on the agenda, and the departure date was in early February, and there was still half a month to go.
The previous dynasty once again proposed to establish the crown prince.
It was only because Yongzheng ordered that during the southern tour, the king of Ruijun supervised the country, and Prince Yi and the minister Ma Qi supervised and assisted.
