Chapter 277: Cause and Effect (Three Watches!)
Although Tong Guowei, who was so frightened that he didn't know what to say, he didn't see through everything instantly because of his brother's words, but today's everything still made him feel palpitations.
In the past, whether he was an uncle or an uncle of the country, Kangxi had great respect for Tong Guowei or Tong Guogang. Although the identity is there, the closeness that Kangxi reveals from time to time still makes the Tong family feel proud, after all, in a certain way, they started with Kangxi's mother's family.
There are not many capable people in the Tong family, let's just say that Tong Guogang, that can really be regarded as a great achievement, compared to Tong Guowei, it can be said that most of them rely on their true skills, such a person step by step, it's nothing, but it's a pity that his mind is on practicing martial arts and fighting, otherwise, he wouldn't wait until Tong Guowei came to the door, and he didn't find out that something was wrong.
"Big brother, I know it's my fault in this matter, but the matter has come to this point, we must find a way to solve the matter, after all, the harem is the same as the court, and we can't watch others step on the head of our Tong family!" Although Tong Guowei is confused about the issue of women, he still puts the interests of the Tong family first.
In the final analysis, he did so many things in order to continue the glory of the Tong family and let the Tong family replace those old-school families as the first family. It's a pity that he was too eager for quick success, so that he lost his sense of proportion, and even changed the fate of the Tong family without knowing it, so that the 'Tong Banchao', who dominated the dynasty in the previous life, lost the opportunity to appear.
"As long as no one has ascended to the throne of this queen, we have not lost yet. Now that the concubine has been happy, if she can give birth to one, she can give birth to a second, so we have to fight for not someone else's son, but the elder brother with the blood of the Tong family, so don't provoke Concubine Zhao for the time being, and even don't match Concubine Niu Colu's side, and wait quietly for all this to pass. Tong Guogang looked at Tong Guowei, who couldn't make sense, and then opened his mouth and emphasized: "If you blindly rush for quick success, then let alone lead the Tong family to glory, it is likely that you will not even be able to keep everything now." ”
"Big brother, this is a bit exaggerated?" Tong Guowei squinted, feeling that even if Kangxi would be dissatisfied, it would be impossible to extend the butcher knife to his mother's house.
"You think it's an exaggeration, but I don't. The emperor's preferential treatment of the Tong family is for the sake of the queen mother's face and the affection when he was a child, but the premise of ensuring these preferential treatment is that we cannot become a stumbling block on the emperor's way forward. The current emperor is not the boy who didn't have much power at hand and could only be at the mercy of others, but now he has grown into a real king. And the king's heart is indeed broad, but there are also premises, do you want to test the emperor's patience with us with the entire Tong family?" Tong Guogang spoke more and more bluntly, and while not giving Tong Guowei any face, he also did not give him any chance to escape, in short, he just wanted him to understand that the Tong family was not as stable as he imagined.
The Tong family can come to this point, it all depends on the emperor's pull, the emperor is willing to support, and others are willing to help open the way, otherwise the original family situation of the Tong family is afraid that it will not be able to go this far.
It's not that Tong Guowei really can't see anything, he is just too anxious, so he wants to be in a hurry. Now that he has found a problem, and Tong Guogang is beating on the side, even if he still has other people's thoughts in his heart, he understands at this moment that only dormancy can be exchanged for other opportunities.
"Big brother, I understand, when I go back, I will send a message to the concubine Niangniang and Shuyu, so that they don't act rashly. "Since there is no choice, there is no choice but to compromise.
Tong Guogang observed Tong Guowei's expression without a trace, and saw that he really realized his mistake, so he was really relieved, he was afraid that Tong Guowei would be too self-righteous and not take the emperor's warning to heart, and then continue to challenge the emperor's patience. Now it seems that he listened to his words, although he doesn't know what the final result will be, but as long as the emperor's affection for the Tong family is kept, the future will be long, and what they want will be realized sooner or later.
In the palace, when Concubine Tong and Shuyu received the news, their reactions were the same, and they both felt very surprised, after all, before this, Tong Guowei's actions were not stable, and he was rampage, and it seemed that no one except Kangxi paid attention to him. Now that he suddenly chose to hibernate, the two who didn't know the reason would naturally be surprised.
Because of Shuyu's low status, she has to plan slowly to have a chance if she wants to move, and she has no power or power, what can she do? So she didn't reject this order too much, after all, even if she made a move before, it was to instigate others, and now this is just a little bit of her outstretched claws slightly retracted.
It's not that Concubine Tong Guifei is unavailable, and it's not that she doesn't have a chance, but all the things in recent days have completely wiped out her original innocence during this time. Without love, the obstacle that stood in front of me seemed to disappear all at once, and everything that was unclear in the past was now suddenly seen clearly.
"Mama, why did you say that Amma suddenly changed her mind? Originally, Bengong was thinking about whether to persuade him, but now it seems that our father and daughter have thought of it for the first time. Concubine Tong was lying on the bed, looking at the curtain on the top of the bed, her tone was light and without a trace of ups and downs, compared with the past, it seemed like two people.
Mama Tu looked at Concubine Tong who seemed to have changed her personality, and sighed in her heart, if she could understand it earlier, why would she take so many detours, after all, the original Concubine Tong had the convenience that all the concubines in the harem did not have. But that's okay, although all the convenience has disappeared, as long as their own concubine Niangniang can see it, when the emperor's anger is gone, and there is Xiao Gege, they can always wait for another opportunity.
"It's a good thing to think of together, although everything is not good for Niangniang now, but when all this is over, Niangniang will definitely come to work. Mama Tu looked at Concubine Tong's expression, and naturally said everything better.
Concubine Tong, who is in confinement, does not argue, in the past, she had to compete for everything, and she suffered a lot for this. Now, although she can't change her temperament all at once, she won't be like before, no one cares about it, and only does things according to her own mood.
Concubine Tong Guifei turned her head to look at her sleeping daughter beside her, she directly asked Mama Wu to take her away because she was a daughter, but after she figured it out, she asked Mama Wu to take the child back. Maybe there is really a mother-daughter connection, originally Concubine Tong thought that she would be impatient with the child, just like the fourth elder brother before, looking cute, but when she thought of Wu Yashi, she would unconsciously have a trace of disgust and resistance to him, so no matter what she did, she couldn't achieve real intimacy.
Mama Tu looked at Concubine Tong who stretched out her fingers into Xiao Gege's hand, and then looked at the tenderness in Concubine Tong's eyes, and she was also amazed in her heart. In the past, they had never seen such a warm side of Concubine Tong, but now when they see it, they can't help but feel that this woman is different as a mother.
"Niangniang, since the lord has decided to hibernate, you also agree with this decision, just take advantage of the confinement time to recuperate, as for the harem matter, even if we can't solve it at once, but if we spend some time, we can settle it. "Mama Tu said this is not all comfort, since Concubine Tong is a concubine, she is destined to be different from others, and there are so many people in the harem who want to climb up, as long as she is willing to provide opportunities, there are many people who come to cling, and then plan well, why worry about not being able to succeed.
Concubine Tong Guifei looked at her daughter's sleeping face, and smiled for a long time: "Mama is right, in the past, this palace was too naïve, and she only thought about love and love, but she forgot how lucky men in the world are! ”
Since she entered the palace, even if she is sorry for everyone, her sincerity towards Kangxi cannot be compared to anyone. Now that she is sure that all her sincerity will not be rewarded, she can't just go home empty-handed. If there is anything else in this harem that she can't let go, it is the position of the queen, so Kangxi and the queen, she must get one of them.
Mama Tu didn't say much when she heard this, as long as Concubine Tong had a direction and stopped acting recklessly, they would support whatever she wanted to fight for, not to mention that the position of the queen was originally their goal, and it was a good thing that they could be sure now.
After firming up her thoughts, Concubine Tong didn't say that she was completely silent, but compared to the performance of feeling uncomfortable without tossing the day before, at least she can behave like a normal person now, but it is those harem concubines who have provocative ideas, although they didn't get a favor, but they saw something wrong from it, if Concubine Tong was still like before, just a little bit, they would definitely not feel jealous, on the contrary, Concubine Tong responded so calmly, they didn't dare to continue to look for trouble.
The Empress Dowager didn't interfere too much with this, for her, it doesn't matter how Concubine Tong changes, the important thing is that the chess pieces she buried will move at a critical moment, and even if she can't defeat Concubine Tong in one fell swoop, it will make her miserable. In this case, what she wants to ensure is that her arrangement is not wrong, not whether Concubine Tong Guifei has learned to be obedient. It can be said that Concubine Tong's change is good, but it was too late.
Everything in this world has a cause and effect, as long as you have done something, it will definitely have an impact, even if it is not now, but it does not mean that it will not be in the future.
"Let them keep an eye on it, and when the Tong family is the most proud, the mourning family should let her know that arbitrarily and arbitrarily sometimes consumes not only affection, but also life!" the queen mother chuckled, and with a slight sneering claim in her words, everything seemed to be full of danger.
"The old slave understands. Mama Qiao looked at the Queen Mother's comfortable appearance, with a smile on her face, but she knew in her heart that the seemingly most harmless Queen Mother was actually not simpler than the Queen Mother.
