Chapter 158: Ulan's Visit
After Qi Wei thought about it, he asked people to pass the news to Yongshou Palace, so as not to worry about his niece.
Yun Yao was also very surprised when she received this news, because Tong Gege was a crossing woman, Yun Yao always felt that he was likely to enter the palace.
Now that he learned that the emperor might give Tong Gege a marriage, Yun Yao was a little like she was in a dream.
To be honest, there are only a few people who have really been feared by her since Yun Yao entered the palace, and even now Yun Yao has stood in a higher place and has seen more things, so she has not seen many things in her eyes.
And no matter how high Yun Yao climbs in the harem, this Tong Gege Yun Yao is an extremely feared one, who makes her special identity, the emperor's cousin!
Not to mention others, even when she was drafted, Yun Yao knew that she was not the real rival in the eyes of the queen and those harem concubines. They were staring at this Tong Gege the most.
Otherwise, with her relationship with the emperor, she would not be so inconspicuous in the draft, and it was not that these people were like-minded and suppressed together, or Yun Yao did not receive as much as Tong Gege!
Therefore, Yun Yao was very relieved that Tong Gege might be married by the emperor, but due to the possible destructive power of the Qing Piercing Girl, Yun Yao still did not withdraw her surveillance of Tong Gege.
These days, Yun Yao has made people investigate Tong Gege's affairs, and it is also a little rewarding.
What made Yun Yao feel schadenfrefret was that this female compatriot who was wearing Qing seemed to be unprepared at the beginning, so she missed a lot of flaws in the Tong Mansion.
So much so that Tong Gege's mother also wanted to invite those monks and Taoists to exorcise evil spirits for Tong Gege, but this crossing girl seemed to be a smart person, so she quickly appeased the wife of the Tong family and the rest of the Tong family.
In fact, the affairs of Tong Mansion were strictly concealed, because Tong Mansion still hoped that Tong Gege would be able to enter the palace, so he didn't say much about Tong Gege's abnormalities.
And according to Yun Yao's analysis, this Qing Piercing Girl is likely to have the memory of the original owner, otherwise she would not have passed the test so easily.
Yun Yao also secretly said that it was a pity, because Yun Yao was ready to spread rumors, as long as Tong Gege showed a little bit of nonsense, she would be haunted by rumors, in order to repay the grievances with her in her previous life.
Who knew that this Qing-dressed woman was quite smart, and quickly calmed down the doubts of the people in Tong Mansion. made Yun Yao's back hand useless.
And Yun Yao felt that if he didn't die if he beat the snake, he would be counterattacked. So Yun Yao didn't continue in the end this time, also to avoid Tong Gege from coming to her.
It is said that the enemy is clear and I am secret, Yun Yao doesn't want to expose her identity in vain to let Tong Gege know, after all, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and Yun Yao is not sure enough to hide it from others.
When Yun Yao was thinking about the affairs of the Tong family, suddenly a little palace maid came to report outside the door and said, "Qi Yu Niangniang, the Wulan grandmother of Shoukang Palace is here!" ”
"Mama Ulan?" Yun Yao asked in surprise.
Even Caiyu next to her looked very surprised when she heard this, and I have to say that the arrival of Mama Wulan was very unexpected by Yun Yao and the others.
Caiyu looked incredulous and said, "I didn't expect that Mama Wulan would have a day of condescension!" ”
It's no wonder that Caiyu would complain about Mama Ulan so much, it's really difficult for ordinary people to imagine the character of this Mama Ulan.
At first, when Yun Yao contacted Mama Wulan, she thought she was a hearty and straightforward person, but the more Yun Yao came into contact with Mama Ulan, the more she found that Mama Wulan's enthusiasm was divided.
To Yun Yao said, this Wulan Mama and the Empress Dowager are a match made in heaven, both of them feel that Mongolian people are superior to other people, not only Han people, but even Manchu people They have never taken it seriously.
Needless to say, the Empress Dowager can't wait for every emperor's harem to be Horqin's people, if it weren't for Kangxi's here, the Empress Dowager would no longer be able to resist the blows of others, and Kangxi's queen would still be a queen from Horqin.
And Mama Wulan not only disdains Kangxi's concubines, and rarely goes to the concubine's palace, but even the queen dares to scold directly, this is a scene that Yun Yao inadvertently bumped into when she was in Shoukang Palace before.
Mama Wulan is nothing more than holding grievances for the Queen Mother, Yun Yao was asked for palace power by Mama Qian sent by the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was also affected by this here.
The Empress Dowager sent someone to ask the Empress Dowager for the palace power, and told the Empress Dowager to hand it over to the Empress.
It's just that the Queen Mother just had some power in her hands, and suddenly let her hand it in, where would it not hurt. It's just that the Empress Dowager has a lot of power, and the Empress Dowager has to comply because of filial piety, and Mama Wulan doesn't dare to complain about the Empress Dowager, so she secretly curses the Empress.
In fact, Yun Yao felt that this "secretly" had to be put in quotation marks, because Mama Wulan didn't say it in front of the master of the palace, but everyone who could inquire about the news in Shoukang Palace could know it. This includes the queen, if it weren't for the queen being grounded by the emperor soon, Mama Wulan would never have been let go by the queen.
And why didn't the Queen Mother care about Mama Wulan, Yun Yao guessed that what Mama Wulan was scolding behind her back was exactly what the Queen Mother wanted to say!
This is not Yun Yao's guess, Yun Yao has assisted the Queen Mother in managing palace affairs these days, but the Queen Mother's temperament these days is very different from Yun Yao's previous cognition.
Yun Yao always thought that the Queen Mother was the Bodhisattva who came later, gentle and kind, and she was simply an outlier of Horqin.
But after Yun Yao got in touch with the Queen Mother, she found that she still took it for granted, the Queen Mother's temperament was actually no different from the abolished Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother was more able to judge the situation.
As for how the Queen Mother's temperament became what she was later, Yun Yao doesn't know.
It's just that Yun Yao remembered that there was no Ulan Mama by the Queen Mother's side, Yun Yao didn't know what happened to let Ulan Mama, a loyal slave, leave the Queen Mother's side, but Yun Yao knew that it was definitely not ordinary people who could make Ulan Mama have no news, thinking of Ulan Mama's unobstructed mouth, Yun Yao felt that she seemed to understand something.
Therefore, Yun Yao avoided Shoukang Palace a little, after all, the current Queen Mother is not respected by the emperor, and what happened in Shoukang Palace before made Yun Yao see Kangxi's attitude clearly.
It is no more than the emperor who hesitated repeatedly when Jingren Palace was searched, and the emperor was not present at all when he arrested people in Shoukang Palace, but just sent someone to notify him in advance, so everyone in the harem knew that the queen mother was not respected by the emperor.
Now Yun Yao is also a little shy about Shoukang Palace, it is also human nature, Yun Yao has rarely run to Shoukang Palace these days, but she didn't expect that Mama Wulan, who was unwilling to condescend to the throne before, also boarded the door, which was really unexpected by Yun Yao.
Yun Yao asked the little palace maid, "What did Mama Wulan say?" ”
The little palace maid replied, "Mama Ulan didn't say anything, she just said that she wanted to see her mother." ”
Yun Yao's heart sank when she heard this, and she felt that it was likely that the person who came was not good, so she couldn't help but be a little worried, and then brought it to her face.
Caiyu is also exquisite, and naturally knows that her master is unwilling to see Mama Wulan, and not to mention Yun Yao, Caiyu is also unwilling to face Mama Wulan.
Caiyu automatically asked Ying and said: "If Niangniang doesn't want to see Mama Wulan, it is better to let the slave maid send her away, and say that Niangniang is unwell." Caiyu didn't have any confidence in what she said, after all, Mama Wulan was not a person to be sent off.
Yun Yao naturally didn't run away, and said with a wry smile: "I can't say that the Queen Mother has something to order, don't slack off!"
Caiyu didn't refute anymore, but muttered in her heart that this Ulan Mama was pretending to be a ghost, otherwise why didn't she explain what it was for?
Mama Wulan made such a show, as if others would think that the Queen Mother and Concubine Zhao had some conspiracy.
Yun Yao naturally didn't know that Caiyu had to mutter, if she knew, she would not have to agree, Yun Yao was not worried about what Caiyu thought at the moment, but another matter.
It was Yun Yao's grandmother who was suspected of being an old acquaintance of the Queen Mother, and Yun Yao only thought that the Queen Mother had admitted her mistake at first, after all, the world is so big, there are no surprises, and there are people who look similar.
But with Yun Yao's verification, Yun Yao was a little uncertain, because Yun Yao found out that there were many similarities between the grandmother and the old man of the Queen Mother, such as Yun Yao's grandmother, which is said to be from Horqin, which made Yun Yao begin to doubt the true identity of her grandmother.
The person who can be related to the Queen Mother is not a small role, and Yun Yao's grandmother was not a slave at the beginning, and it is said that she is still a nobleman, so she can be treated so solemnly by the Queen Mother must be not much different from the Queen Mother's background.
It's just that the Queen Mother has just turned thirty, and Yun Yao's grandmother would already be more than sixty if she was still alive, with such a difference of age, in addition to being a close elder, how could there be any other possibility.
Yun Yao thought that her grandmother might be related to the Queen Mother and even the Queen Mother, and she felt a little delicate in her heart.
Yun Yao's grandmother was able to be incognito to this point, and Yun Yao couldn't help but worry about whether her grandmother was related to something big.
Ancient times don't have to be modern, it's not trivial to be able to be incognito and no longer interact with your family.
And this is related to Mongolia, Yun Yao feels that this is likely to be a big thing, this is from a woman's intuition.
Yun Yao looked like she was stuck in her thoughts, so Caiyu didn't dare to disturb, but the sound from outside the door made Caiyu have to disturb Yun Yao.
"!" Caiyu stepped forward and shouted softly.
Yun Yao came back to her senses all of a sudden, and asked a little blankly, "Caiyu, what's wrong?" ”
Caiyu hurriedly reported, "Niangniang, it seems that Mama Wulan can't wait!" Caiyu's words were euphemistic, but Yun Yao heard the noise faintly heard outside, and knew that this Wulan Mama was definitely not simply unable to wait!
Yun Yao stood up and said with a tense face: "Let's go, let's see what is important to this person who has to see this palace?"
Yun Yao's words were hard, and Caiyu knew that her master was unhappy when she heard it, so she could only serve carefully.
When she arrived at the place where she saw the guests, Yun Yao heard Mama Wulan's arrogant tone outside the door, because the palace maids of Yongshou Palace had a low status, Mama Wulan naturally disdained it, and she was dissatisfied with the palace maids who served in Yongshou Palace, and Yun Yao was impatient to show up in Mama Wulan for a long time.
Just now, Mama Wulan was disgusted with the bad tea in Yongshou Palace, so as to vent her anger, she was not arrogant enough to scold Yun Yao, but she didn't know what she thought in her heart.
When Mama Wulan saw Yun Yao coming, she complained before she saluted: "Concubine Zhao, the palace maids serving in your palace don't know the rules too much, and the guests are still using the old tea before, and they don't even drink the livestock!" ”
I have to say that Mama Wulan is really too blind, Yun Yao doesn't know how she survived, at least the Queen Mother must be very protective of her.
Yun Yao comforted herself that there was the Queen Mother standing behind Mama Wulan, don't be angry.
But I have to say that Mama Wulan is really not a person who knows etiquette, compared with Aunt Su Mala, who is respected by almost everyone in the harem, her level of life is simply a heaven and an earth.
Yun Yao secretly breathed a sigh of luck, and said impatiently: "What is Mama Wulan doing? Please also inform Hongu. ”
Mama Wulan naturally noticed that Yun Yao's expression was wrong, but she was used to being domineering, and when she met Yun Yao's cold face, her face was a little unbearable.
Mama Wulan complained a little: "Look at what Niangniang said, can't the old slave come to Niangniang if he is fine?" ”
Yun Yao finally couldn't help but condense and said, "The palace rules are strict, please remember it." ”
Mama Wulan wanted to lose her temper when she saw this, but she remembered the purpose of her coming, so she could only swallow her anger and say: "Niangniang, the old slave came over and asked Niangniang for help." ”
The face is neither humble nor arrogant, and there is no intention of asking for help.
Yun Yao didn't know what to say, he never thought that someone would ask her to help so reasonably, as if it was an honor for her.
Even Caiyu, who was holding Yun Yao, was eye-opening, and finally couldn't help but support Yun Yao: "What does Mama Wulan mean?" Mother's actions still need you to point fingers? ”
Although Mama Wulan didn't dare to offend Yun Yao, Caiyu didn't take a palace maid in her eyes at all, so she glanced at Caiyu with great disdain and said to Yun Yao: "The palace maid next to Niangniang should also be disciplined well, I don't understand the rules at all!" ”
Caiyu was angry when she heard this, but Yun Yao waved her hand to stop Caiyu's unspoken words, there are some things that Caiyu can't say, but she, the master, can still say it.
Yun Yao said unceremoniously: "The people of this palace have their own discipline in this palace, so I won't bother you!" If Mama is okay, go back, there are still a lot of things to deal with in this palace, and I don't have time to entertain you! ”
Mama Wulan looked at Yun Yao's cold face in shock, obviously she didn't expect Yun Yao's attitude to become so bad, just for the sake of her master's affairs, Mama Wulan could only hold back her anger and said: "Niangniang, the Queen Mother has nothing to do now, and I also ask Niangniang to say a few kind words in front of the emperor." ”
I have to say that Mama Wulan's cheekiness shocked Yun Yao, before the Queen Mother was directly taken away by the Queen Mother, after the emperor grounded the queen, he handed over the palace power to the queen mother and took it into his own hands.
Yun Yao felt that the emperor's meaning was very clear, he didn't want the queen mother to be in power, after all, the queen mother was also a Mongolian.
It's just that I didn't expect Mama Wulan to come over cheekily and ask her to intercede with the emperor!
Yun Yao couldn't see the joy and anger on her face, and asked Mama Wulan directly: "This is what the Queen Mother means?" ”
Mama Wulan was a little apprehensive, and then immediately denied it, "How could it be, this is the old slave who was not very happy when he saw the Queen Mother, and came over on his own initiative." ”
Mama Wulan didn't dare to admit this, otherwise someone would have said that the Queen Mother was greedy for power.
Yun Yao hooked her lips and smiled sarcastically, "Since the Queen Mother didn't say anything, Mama Wulan still stays in peace, these things are handled by the emperor and the Queen Mother, so you can rest well!" After finishing speaking, Yun Yao immediately ordered: "Come on, send off guests!"
Yun Yao asked Mama Wulan to send her away, and she turned around and left here.
Mama Wulan cursed angrily when she saw Yun Yao leaving, and then left the Yongshou Palace in desperation.
Although Yun Yao said that she left early, her ears were very good, and she naturally heard Mama Wulan's curse, "The family is..."
When Yun Yao heard this, her heart moved slightly, and she felt that what Mama Wulan said had a lot to do with her grandmother.
It's just that from Mama Ulan's tone just now, she didn't look like she was close to her grandmother!
However, Yun Yao didn't hear it clearly, so she could only press the doubts in her heart and investigate secretly.
