Chapter 207: Kangxi's Means
"It stands to reason that these people are hidden enough, but don't forget, the Niu Hulu clan has deep roots in the palace, and my Tong Jia clan is not bad, when my sister was still the imperial concubine, Concubine Wen was already the honor of the concubine, second only to her, how could there be no defense." Concubine Tong Jiashu smiled when she saw this.
Ji Yingxin also came back to his senses when he heard this, and couldn't help but sigh that he could be in a high position in the palace, there was really no one who was good to get along with, Concubine Wen was able to see through Concubine Tong Jia, how could she not be seen by Concubine Tong Jia, fortunately, no matter which one of these two people was, they were on the same front as themselves, otherwise, the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion would be a little more difficult in the palace.
Seeing this, Ji Yingxin's face also calmed down, looked at Concubine Tong Jia and said with a smile: "The concubine is naturally unique, but the concubine is not bad, otherwise, one or two, how can they be willing to make friends with the concubine?" “
Hearing Ji Yingxin boasting so much, Concubine Tong Jiashu was also a little dumbfounded, glanced at Ji Yingxin, a hint of amusement flashed in her eyes, she didn't expect Ji Yingxin to be able to calm down so quickly, and she didn't care at all that she knew that she was involved with Concubine Wen.
But think about it, the two are now grasshoppers on a rope, Ji Yingxin naturally doesn't have to be too careful, the same attitude that Ji Yingxin showed is also telling Concubine Tong Jiashu that although she is not a concubine in the palace, she is not as good as Concubine Wen and Concubine Tong Jia, but in the same way, as the daughter of the Wulanala clan, she is also qualified to be compared with the two.
If Concubine Tong Jiashu really has bad intentions, even if Ji Yingxin suffers a loss in the end, she will definitely not be able to please her.
Interesting, it seems that this Sifujin is much more difficult than he imagined, and it is not unreasonable for Concubine Wen to value her.
Putting away a trace of vague contempt in her eyes, Concubine Tong Jiashu also smiled in the same way: "In ancient times, Xiao He and Han Xin knew heroes, and today it seems that this little lord and Concubine Wen also wanted to go together, and found Sifujin, a heroine among women, if it spreads in the future, it will be a good story." “
Ji Yingxin saw that Concubine Tong Jiashu finally put her position right, and she was somewhat relieved in her heart, cooperation and cooperation, only if you have equal status, you can be qualified to cooperate, otherwise, the big fish will eat the small fish, and when you can't keep it, you will be abandoned as an outcast.
Because it is still in the filial piety period of Concubine Wenxi, and because the four concubines are competing for palace power, the situation in the palace is changing, and there is little movement in the imperial garden, so no one knows about Ji Yingxin and Concubine Tong Jiashu meeting each other on this day, except for the two henchmen.
Concubine Tong Jiashu was not slow, as soon as the two formed an alliance, Concubine Tong Jiashu secretly took action and cleaned up some of Ji Yingxin's heads and tails outside the elder brother, and there was no trace left, and the power of the three generations of harem concubines of the Tong Jia clan in the palace was really extraordinary.
Concubine Tong Jiashu expressed her sincerity, and Ji Yingzhong naturally did not react, and the next morning, there were court officials of the Wulanala clan, asking Kangxi to make arrangements for the fall of the harem, and at the same time, the Hesheri clan, Niu Hulu clan, Wulanala clan, Tong Jia clan, and the four major clans proposed to let the four concubines assist in the harem.
It's just that, on the basis of the four concubines assisting the harem, it was Wen Guifei who was in charge of the harem back then, and the four concubines were just assisting, and now they suddenly handed over the palace power to the four concubines, I'm afraid they can't handle it, so I ask Kangxi to appoint another harem concubine to assist the four concubines to deal with it.
Kangxi was already jealous of the assistant of the four concubines, and the harem was unstable, so it was inconclusive for a long time. Now that the four major clans are speaking at the same time, with Kangxi's acuity, he naturally senses the undercurrent surging, knowing that the prince is also afraid of the eldest brother's lineage, and wants to push another person out and fight in the ring with the eldest brother.
According to everyone's estimates, Concubine Tong Jiashu is second only to the fourth concubine in the harem today, and now there is pressure from the four major clans, Kangxi will definitely promote Concubine Tong Jiashu to be a concubine and give her the right to associate the harem, so as to balance the power of the harem.
In fact, Kangxi did see this, but he did not promote Concubine Tong Jiashu as a concubine as everyone thought, but made another decision.
In January of the thirty-fourth year of Kangxi, the day of the filial piety of Concubine Wenxi, in the harem, Kangxi passed the decree, the concubine Tong Jia, Duan Lai Roujia, for the filial piety of the queen to stick to the Chengqian Palace for many years, hard work and high achievement, with its leading concubines, leading the harem, in charge of the harem to play the power of management, so that the four concubines assisted the harem, so that the harem was safe and orderly, and the six palaces were harmonious.
As soon as this holy decree came out, the palace was shocked, and even Ji Yingxin and Concubine Tong Jiashu themselves didn't expect that Kangxi's hand was so big.
You must know that leading the concubine's share, although she is not a real concubine, she has already suppressed the four concubines in terms of identity, which is equivalent to saying that Concubine Tong Jiashu jumped one and a half times in a row, from an invisible person in the harem, to the head of the harem all of a sudden, such a big pie is much bigger than what Ji Yingxin and Concubine Tong Jiashu want to swallow, but before that, both of them thought that Concubine Tong Jiashu could get a concubine position and be considered top.
In the face of such a big pie, everyone can be said to have overfulfilled the task, but in fact, except for the Tong Jia family, even Concubine Tong Jia herself was not happy.
The reason is very simple, a big pie is a big pie is good, but such a big pie is not something that everyone has the appetite to swallow.
Concubine Tong Jiashu has a deep foundation in the palace, and has no grace, if she is a concubine, with her background, plus the five concubines fighting, she can barely hold on, and now she has become the head of the harem, which seems to be good, but she herself can't be calmed, once something goes wrong in the harem, she will bear the brunt and be blamed.
That's it, what's more, she said that she is the head of the harem, but in the end there is no specific position, the ancients paid attention to the right name, she has no specific position, no matter how high the share is, to put it bluntly, it is not in the establishment, just a contract worker, or even a temporary worker, in contrast, although the fourth concubine is under her, it is a real concubine, and each has a title, compared to her a concubine without a name, even if it is really a little worse, there is not much difference.
The head of a harem with no name, the four harem concubines who hold real power, what will happen to each other, it is self-evident, especially in this way, the four concubines must regard her as a thorn in the side, and the original situation of fighting with each other will also become the same enemy, and after many years of fighting in the harem, where does Concubine Tong Jiashu not know the horror of the four concubines joining forces, that is the existence of Wen Guifei who has to avoid her edge in the world.
