Chapter Ninety-One: Mama Wu
"Since the Empress Dowager said that the nobles of Suo Yuluo are good, then let the nobles of Suo Yuluo sleep tonight. Kangxi squinted his eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
How can anyone who values him and who has made promises move him?
Although as an emperor, whether he is in power or in power, he can't act willfully, but if he really has to make up his mind to protect someone, he can definitely do it.
For Yunxi, his feelings are complicated, whether it is a life-saving grace or a heart-warming move, he will protect her before he is ruthless. Although the matter this time is small, the timing is not right, Yunxi can't bear it, no matter what kind of mentality it is, Kangxi accepts her love in his heart and remembers her good.
As for the others, Kangxi doesn't need to deal with it personally, as long as he remembers the other party's hatred, he doesn't need to do anything, just ignore it and not enough for the other party to drink a pot.
When Liang Jiugong heard Kangxi's decision, he was slightly surprised, but this also made him determine a fact - the noble Suo Xuanluo was really the person on the tip of the emperor's heart.
"The minions obeyed. ”
When the Empress Dowager got the news that Kangxi summoned Xing Yunxi, she nodded with satisfaction, she reached this age, and it is said that she should live for a long time. But there are some things she can't let go of after all, so even if she knows that holding the authority in her hands all the time will cause discord between her grandparents and grandchildren, she is still strong. Just so as not to cause a backlash from the emperor, she would take a step back from time to time.
Don't think that she will only back down, in fact, even if her control over the harem is not as good as before, she knows everything she should know. As long as the emperor doesn't go against her will in everything, she won't interfere too much, but this harem concubine, she hopes that the emperor can get closer to the noble Manjun Banner, or the concubines of the Mengjun Banner, as for the concubines from palace maids like Wei and Wu Ya, she can't look down on them, and she won't allow the other party to sit in a high position, and then lose the royal face.
It's not difficult for her to deal with these two people, even if the emperor has an opinion, as long as she insists, it is not impossible, but she is unwilling to share with the emperor for the sake of two lowly minions.
The Empress Dowager hooked the corners of her mouth, held the teacup, turned her head to look at Aunt Su Mala on the side, and said with a hint of satisfaction at the corners of her eyes: "The mourning family is sure that the emperor will give the mourning family this face, and now it seems that although the emperor's wings are stiff, he still cares about this ancestral and grandson affection." ”
For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, she is willing to retreat, but for her prestige, for the sake of Horqin, she must use the noble girl as the reason to let the emperor accept and favor the show girl of the Mengjun banner.
Su Malagu paused for a moment, resisted the urge to persuade in his heart, and said with a smile: "Although the emperor has his own thoughts, you are still filial to Gege. ”
Although Aunt Su Mala is a maid, her relationship with the Empress Dowager is not ordinary, so she has always been different from others in terms of title.
The Empress Dowager raised her head, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became a little deeper because of her words: "You are right, the emperor, as an emperor, should have his own thoughts, but the mourning family can't let go of Horqin!"
She said this sentence Su Malagu's nose was sour, they couldn't force this matter, the first emperor and the master were separated because of this matter, and finally the mother and son turned against each other, and now she really doesn't want the ancestors and grandchildren to fall out because of this matter.
"Gege, there are some things that we just let it be, it's not good to be too forceful for Gege, or for the emperor. Aunt Su Mala couldn't help but persuade a few words.
It's not what it used to be now, the Qing Dynasty is already stable, and Horqin, no, the whole of Mongolia is no longer as dependent as before, and they are too demanding and will only make everything worse.
How could the Empress Dowager not understand this, she was just unwilling, otherwise how could she fall out with her own son for Horqin, in the final analysis, it was all about making people.
"Su Ma, there are some things that I can't just let go of. The Empress Dowager pondered for a moment, and then said with a sigh.
"Gege ......" Aunt Su Mala looked at the empress dowager with a gloomy face, and sighed inexplicably in her heart.
To say that she has no feelings for Horqin is a lie, and to say that she has not supported the decision of the Empress Dowager is also a lie, but to say that she does not want to defend the emperor is absolutely a lie. But sometimes people have too much helplessness, even if she hopes that everyone is well, but this is not the case. I just hope that things can be as she thinks, and the grandparents and grandchildren will leave a little room for each other.
Compared with the satisfaction of the Empress Dowager, when the rest of the harem received the news, it was really all kinds of beings.
If Kangxi felt that Concubine Tong, Concubine Tong and Wu Yashi slapped him in the face before, then now Concubine Tong has the same idea and feels that her face was hit by Yunxi. The moment she got the news, her well-maintained nails almost pinched into her palms, and the whole person was even more dizzy with anger.
What a Suoluo!
It's just that she won the favor of the empress dowager, so she coaxed the emperor to look at her differently. Whenever she thinks that she is not loved by the Queen Mother, Concubine Tong can't help but feel angry. Obviously, she is enough to please the other party, but the other party just doesn't take her seriously, so she knows that she will arrange those vixens to compete with her for favor.
What made her most sad was that the emperor's cousin didn't understand her mind at all, although she was given the position of concubine, but she didn't want the position of concubine at all, but the posterior.
Wu Yashi, who was waiting on the side, was shocked in his heart, and inexplicably felt a trace of unease. Today, she was in Cining Palace, and she instigated Concubine Tong to target Yunxi because of a few words from Yunxi, who knew that stealing chickens would not make rice, and she would compensate herself.
When she came back from Cining Palace, although Concubine Tong didn't beat her and scolded her, just letting her wait on the side made her suffer enough.
If she hadn't had breakfast in the morning and made an excuse to eat a few snacks in the middle, she would have collapsed by now.
But what can she do?
As long as she doesn't want to give up the emperor's favor and doesn't want to lose the talisman of the fourth elder brother, she has to endure until the emperor is willing to allow her to be in a high position and let her leave Jingren Palace, otherwise no matter how uncomfortable it is, she will have to swallow this bitter fruit.
Wu Yashi is indeed a tolerant person, from the beginning when Concubine Tong selected the palace maids to wait for the emperor, she had a plan but was not in a hurry, showing that she didn't care much. No, everyone else has been brushed down, only she has been until today, why? Just because she got Tong Guifei's idea right.
Look, Concubine Tong was so proud in the past, as if the emperor only had her in his eyes, and ignored everyone. But in fact, the emperor does value her, but he doesn't like her, otherwise why did he come to this Jingren Palace to pamper her instead of Concubine Tong herself!
To put it bluntly, if you think too much, you will be punished. But she herself just likes to deceive herself and refuses to face the facts, so that one opportunity after another is sent to her, and now, she has a position and can be loved, but what will her fourth elder brother do!
Wu Yashi pressed the thoughts in his heart, thinking that he was fifteen today, and couldn't help but say provocatively: "Niangniang, the emperor is also helpless, after all, where is the meaning of the queen mother, and the nobles are ......."
Concubine Tong didn't say anything, she looked at her coldly, the chill in her eyes was full, and it was obvious that Concubine Tong, who was angry, took Wu Ya's provocation as a mockery.
If Concubine Tong made a big noise, Wu Yashi would not be worried, but looking at her increasingly cold face, Wu Yashi, who was still smiling, not only smiled, but even her face gradually became a little pale. She slowly lowered her eyelids, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, wondering how to divert Concubine Tong's anger.
"Mother, it's the slave who is too talkative. She had the heart to behave, but she didn't want Concubine Tong to stop eating her this time.
Concubine Tong turned sideways, clenched the handkerchief in her hand with both hands, and listened to Wu Ya's self-proclaimed slave, the anger between her eyebrows eased slightly, and her tone was sarcastic, "You are indeed wrong." The emperor's affairs are not allowed to be left in your beak. ”
What is helpless, to put it bluntly, it is all the fault of the old thing of the Queen Mother, otherwise the emperor's cousin would have summoned the slut of the Suo Yuluo clan at this time.
Although she is not in the middle palace, but every fifteenth day of the new year, the emperor will come to her Jingren Palace, even if it is not to favor her, it is to make her face, but now, it is really a slap in the face.
"Yes, the slave and maid remember the mother's command. Wu Yashi replied softly.
Mama Wu on the side looked at her coldly, Concubine Tong may not have listened to Yunxi's words, but Mama Wu on the side listened. After returning from Cining Palace, Mama Wu pondered how to uncover the true face of Wu Ya's clan. She didn't find the reason before, she couldn't speak, but now seeing that Wu Yashi once again provoked her own mother to act impulsively, Mama Wu tore her heart.
"The lady is generous and doesn't want to worry about the nobles of Wuya, but the nobles have repeatedly forgotten their proportions. There are some things that the old slave is inconvenient to say too clearly, but the nobleman's provocative words, do you want the mother to share with the emperor?" Mama Wu squinted her eyes when she said this, and her tone was cold and with a hint of annoyance.
Mama Wu, as Concubine Tong's grandmother, naturally looks towards her in everything, even if Concubine Tong is unpersuaded most of the time, this does not prevent Mama Wu from maintaining Concubine Tong.
It is said that the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Concubine Tong wanted to use Wu Ya's clan to win Kangxi's attention, but Wu Mama felt that Wu Ya's clan had snatched away all the attention that originally belonged to Tong Guifei. Mama Wu didn't persuade Concubine Tong in private, but unfortunately Concubine Tong agreed well in front of her, as soon as she saw that others were favored, she reverted to her old ways, and then there was Wu Ya's instigation, Tong Jia's whole person became more bitter and mean.
In such a vicious circle, things get worse.
Although this incident against Suo Yuluo was just an introduction, it made Mama Wu think and make up her mind.
"What does Mama mean by this? How can this palace be separated from the emperor?" When Concubine Tong heard Mama Wu's words, she couldn't help but say loudly.
