Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Queen Mother Matters

Not to mention that Yun Yao got the possibility that the Empress Dowager did not take medicine for some reason from this incident, which surprised Yun Yao. And Yun Yao didn't dare to say this speculation, after all, Mama Su hadn't fully connected with her now, so Yun Yao naturally didn't dare to say it at will.

In addition, others don't know that Yun Yao still doesn't know that Mama Su is Kangxi's person! Yun Yao naturally didn't dare to guess this kind of thing at will in front of Kangxi's people, after all, Kangxi was the emperor, even if he didn't like the Empress Dowager, how could anyone else be allowed to meddle in it!

Yun Yao didn't dare to mention it to Mama Su again. He continued to ask about the other people in the palace. And Mama Su also knew the taboo, so she told Yun Yao about the Queen Mother.

"A while ago, master, your uncle Tuhai wrote that he was going to hold a birthday banquet for the Queen Mother. The emperor also allowed the matter. Mama Su mentioned that the Queen Mother told Yun Yao about it.

Yun Yao felt a little strange when she heard it, in her opinion, Tu Hai was not surprised at this time as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but the key was that the time was wrong! Maybe it is that in modern Qing Dynasty dramas, there are often 50 birthdays of the emperor, 80 birthdays of the queen mother, etc., but in fact, in the Qing Dynasty, the royal family and official families followed the law of nine birthdays for men and women for their birthdays.

The Queen Mother is thirty years old this year, and according to the law, there is no need to celebrate this year's birthday. However, the Queen Mother did not have a birthday last year. After all, the Queen Mother is embarrassed, and now few people have a birthday of twenty-nine. In Yun Yao's memory, the Queen Mother only had a big birthday in the nineteenth year of Kangxi, and the Queen Mother was nearly forty years old at that time. And this year's birthday for the Queen Mother is not right! However, the Queen Mother celebrates her birthday every year, and it is just a big one every nine days.

Seeing that Yun Yao was a little confused, Mama Su prompted, "Master, have you forgotten about Qin Tianjian?" ”

Yun Yao suddenly realized, Yun Yao found that the Queen Mother was not the Queen Mother who was respected by Kangxi later, in Yun Yao's memory, after the death of the Queen Mother, Kangxi empathized with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was a scene of mother and son. And Kangxi, in order to show his filial piety to the Queen Mother, is basically a grand scene every time he celebrates his birthday, and he is extremely luxurious on every ninth birthday.

But now the Queen Mother is still a little transparent in the palace, even the Queen Mother didn't think of holding a birthday banquet for her daughter-in-law and niece, just to reward something on her birthday. And Kangxi also did the same, and never worked for the birthday of the Queen Mother.

And this time it turned out to be the first time to hold a birthday banquet for the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother also held a Qianqiu banquet when she was the queen, but at that time, because Shunzhi didn't like the Queen Mother, the Qianqiu banquet was repeatedly reduced, and the Queen Mother did not have the pomp and circumstance it should have at that time. So far, this may be the most grand birthday banquet the Queen Mother has ever had.

But now Tu Hai's book this time is barely reasonable. After all, Kangxi offended the Queen Mother because of the queen's affairs this time, and this time, even if it was to make amends, Kangxi wanted to hold a good birthday banquet for the Queen Mother. And Tuhai is also suitable for writing at this time.

"The Queen Mother also pushed back again and again, and then the Holy Lord insisted on it, and finally pushed but the Queen Mother also allowed the matter, but the Queen Mother said that the Queen Mother has not healed now, so she put the birthday banquet at the end of the year, and the Queen Mother must be good at that time. And the master should also enter the palace by then, and the master will definitely attend the birthday banquet, and the queen mother will definitely look at the master differently at that time. Mama Su was also very excited in the end, although the Queen Mother was a little transparent in the palace, it didn't mean that the Queen Mother didn't have a little majesty, and Yun Yao might be favored by Yun Yao because of the matter of the book on the sea. At that time, Yun Yao also had an ally when he entered the palace.

Yun Yao smiled and didn't say anything, but she also sighed in her heart that she was worthy of being able to be willingly supported by Kangxi after the death of the Empress Dowager, and she could also raise Kangxi's fifth elder brother!

If the Queen Mother pushed back the birthday banquet held by Kangxi for her, Kangxi would probably think that the Queen Mother would not forgive Kangxi and others for this, and Kangxi would probably be full of bad feelings for the Queen Mother. But if she doesn't retreat, now the Queen Mother is still sick, how can she, a daughter-in-law and niece, hold a birthday banquet despite the fact that the Queen Mother is still on the hospital bed! At that time, I don't know how many people will criticize the Queen Mother for this. And the most important thing is that the Queen Mother's move may also anger the Queen Mother, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

And now although the Queen Mother promised to hold a birthday banquet, it was postponed until after the Queen Mother recovered, and not only Kangxi was satisfied. Even the Empress Dowager will not have any ill feelings towards the Empress Dowager because of this.

Yun Yao sighed in her heart about the Queen Mother's cleverness and carefulness, Yun Yao only felt that this Queen Mother was probably an example for her to learn! After all, even a high-status queen mother has to act so carefully, and she is just a little Zhao concubine, how dare she make a big fanfare!

Yun Yao only felt that the fluttering mentality of being sought after in recent days had gradually calmed down, and Mama Su was also happy to see this, after all, who doesn't want to be with a more rational master!

Mama Su saw that Yun Yao saw the caution of the Queen Mother's actions, and she was a little relieved in her heart. This time, Mama Su took out the Queen Mother's slip and said to Yun Yao, also so that Yun Yao could take the Queen Mother as an example and be vigilant at all times. You must know that people who don't learn this trick in the harem will fall down sooner or later.

And when it comes to the queen mother, it is about the other protagonist of this incident, the queen, and Mama Su mentioned that there was some schadenfreude in the queen's tone. Yun Yao didn't know where the queen was upsetting this Mama Su, but Yun Yao wouldn't say anything when she saw Mama Su like this.

Mama Su said: "Before, because of the matter of Qin Tianjian, the Holy Lord let the queen think about it behind closed doors, and also reported the prince of Chengcobalt to the Qianqing Palace to raise him personally, and the queen's palace power was also deprived by the Holy Lord. And because the Empress Dowager was sick, the Holy Lord ordered the Empress Dowager to be in charge of palace affairs, and asked Su Malagu, who had almost recovered, to assist the Empress Dowager in managing the harem. ”

Yun Yao listened to the amazing fact of Mama Su and felt a little indigestion. To be honest, Yun Yao never thought that this queen mother would also preside over official business. You must know that the Queen Mother has been in the palace for so many years, and during her tenure as the queen, the palace power was managed by the Queen Mother at that time, that is, the current Queen Mother, and the only power in the hands of the Queen Mother was not left in Shunzhi's deprivation again and again, and even the middle palace note sheet as a symbol of the queen's identity was accepted by Shunzhi.

And after Kangxi ascended the throne, the empress dowager still held the palace power, and Kangxi's biological mother, the empress dowager Xiaokangzhang, died early, and the empress dowager was not managing the harem. After the queen was married into the palace, the empress dowager and the empress fought with each other, and the empress dowager involved Concubine Niu Hulu in charge of the palace power. It can be said that the Queen Mother has never been in charge of the palace for such a long time, and Yun Yao is very skeptical that the Queen Mother can do this?
