Chapter 255: Respective Reactions
The news of Concubine Tong's pregnancy has spread throughout the palace in just half a day, not to mention the reaction of the harem concubines, that is, Kangxi's reaction when he got the news, he will definitely not be happy.
"Liang Jiugong, go and verify this news, I want to know if this news is true!" Kangxi sat on the throne, staring at the fold on the table, his brows furrowed, he spent a lot of time collecting evidence of this witch curse, it can be said that the matter has reached the time when the net is about to be closed, but he didn't expect that the Tong family would be pregnant at this time?
That's not good news!
Kangxi was very angry about this witch curse, in addition to caring about Yunxi and his two sons, the Empress Dowager and Concubine Tong did touch Kangxi's bottom line, which made him feel a sense of crisis at the same time, but also murderous to them.
In fact, this is not to blame Kangxi, even if Concubine Tong stirs up the wind and rain in the palace, the Tong family is not honest, she thinks she is Kangxi's mother's family, and she is acting more and more presumptuously, which makes Kangxi not afraid of it. Even if Kangxi knocked on the Hesheri family last time, he also knocked the Tong family by the way, but the Tong family did not restrain because of this, at most, they did not move for a period of time and then reverted to their old ways. Such a move repeatedly stirred Kangxi's most sensitive nerve, and just when he was about to warn the Tong family by disposing of Concubine Tong, Concubine Tong was actually pregnant at this moment, which is really ......
It is said that tiger poison does not eat children, Kangxi's importance to the heir is well known, if Concubine Tong is not pregnant, Kangxi will never hesitate, but now if Concubine Tong is pregnant, I am afraid that the plan in his hand will have to be reformulated, after all, no matter how cold-hearted and cold-hearted he is, he can't do anything to his own flesh and blood.
Liang Jiugong was shocked in his heart, subconsciously took two steps forward, saluted Kangxi, and said respectfully: "The slave obeys the order." β
Coming out of the Qianqing Palace, Liang Jiugong wiped the sweat that kept pouring out of his forehead with the handkerchief in his sleeve, and sincerely admired Concubine Tong's ability to toss things, she had come to this point, she could still turn over? As far as he knows, Concubine Tong seems to have taken advantage of the emperor's happiness more than a month ago, and took advantage of the emperor's drunkenness to accept a favor, I thought that this time would be the same as before, who knew that at this juncture, people who had not moved for several years suddenly came out of the news, hey, he still sent the news to Concubine Zhao as soon as possible!
Don't look at Concubine Tong in the position of a concubine, not only is the Tong family behind her, but now she is pregnant with a dragon heir, but judging from his experience in surviving in the harem for many years, even if she gives birth to an elder brother, I am afraid it will be difficult to withstand Concubine Zhao's status in the emperor's heart, not to mention that this lord who does not know the height of the sky is still here and joined the empress dowager to make a witch disaster. Although the matter did not make a big fuss, it does not mean that the emperor does not hold grudges, it can be said that if she was not conceived in too time, she might be directly beaten into the dust by the emperor.
Soon Liang Jiugong brought the imperial doctor who diagnosed Tong Guifei's pulse, and the imperial doctor didn't think there was anything wrong with this, he just thought that Kangxi attached importance to the flesh and blood in Tong Guifei's abdomen, so he didn't dare to hide it, and said 1510: "Your Majesty, the concubine Niangniang is indeed pregnant for nearly two months, but the mother is not strong, the fetus is unstable, and she needs to recuperate." β
Although Kangxi was dissatisfied in his heart, he never thought about hurting the fetus in Tong Guifei's womb, and now when he heard that Tong Guifei was unstable, his heart was complicated, but this is the case, Kangxi did not show any emotion in front of people, and his face was expressionless from beginning to end, but it was impossible to guess whether he was happy or unhappy.
The Imperial Doctor was half-bowing here, so that people couldn't see his expression clearly, but his nervousness could be seen from his slightly slow body, after all, even he couldn't tell whether this trip was a blessing or a curse.
The affairs in the harem cannot be mixed with by the imperial doctors, especially after Kangxi took action to rectify them, they dare not get involved. But although they don't dare to mix, they still pay attention to what they should pay attention to, after all, when they are doctors, sometimes it is easy to become the target of venting, in order to save a small life, they are fighting!
"I know, let's all go down!" Kangxi was silent for a moment, then said lightly, and then waved his hand to signal them all to go down.
Seeing this, Liang Jiugong immediately took two steps forward and invited the imperial doctor out, and when he turned around, he glanced at Kangxi, whose expression could not be seen in anger, and was slightly anxious, but unfortunately the sky did not follow people's wishes, he had already sent the news to Yonghe Palace, but Yonghe Palace has not moved at all until now, and he doesn't know what his idea is, which makes them suffer those who are waiting in the Qianqing Palace.
The imperial doctor was also in a cold sweat when he came out of the Qianqing Palace, obviously he misestimated this matter, he originally thought that the emperor would ask because he cared about the piece of meat in Tong Guifei's stomach, but now thinking about it, he found that the emperor's expression was very cold from beginning to end, and even occasionally mixed with a hint of complexity, from this point of view, the rumors that the emperor was dissatisfied with the Tong family circulating in the harem should be true, otherwise how could he not even reward Tong Guifei if she was pregnant, you must know that the harem before went up to the queen concubine, down to the promised palace maid, but if you are pregnant, you will be rewarded, at this time, the situation is really clear at a glanceγ
"Thank you, father-in-law. Before leaving, the imperial doctor arched his hand slightly at Liang Jiugong and thanked him in a low voice.
Liang Jiugong just said it in passing, not because the imperial doctor would be punished, but because he was afraid that the imperial doctor's inappropriate words would provoke the emperor to be angry, and then affect them who were waiting, but now that the matter has passed, people thank him, and he didn't dare to take Qiao, so he had to say politely: "It's easy to say." β
Sending off the imperial doctor, Liang Jiugong looked at the gloomy weather outside, and sighed, thinking that the wind and rain were coming, but now it is good, but halfway through, the peak turned around, so that Tong Guifei got a talisman, but I don't know how the emperor will deal with this matter in the end, and how he will arrange the empress dowager and Tong Guifei who are involved in it.
One is an elder, the other is pregnant, how to deal with the two of them is easy to attract people's handles, otherwise Kangxi was similar to the act of house arrest of the Queen Mother, why did he have to pull the Queen Mother out to make a face, to put it bluntly, this filial piety and unfilial piety are really embarrassing, after all, for the things that the Queen Mother did, it was too light, it didn't work, it was too heavy, and it was easy to be criticized, so he had a headache when a slave saw it, not to mention Kangxi who had to deal with this matter.
In Yonghe Palace, Yunxi sat on the railing, looking at the increasingly gloomy sky on the horizon, and there was still a trace of surprise in his eyes. She really didn't expect that Concubine Tong would get pregnant at this juncture, although she knew that Concubine Tong would have a child who died early, but she didn't expect it to appear at this time.
For a moment, Yunxi herself wondered if even the heavens were helping Concubine Tong? Otherwise, why could Concubine Tong always escape, obviously this time, with this witch curse, she would be able to use Kangxi's hand to knock her and the Empress Dowager into the dust in one fell swoop, not to mention that it would kill the two of them at once, at least it would make them have no strength to make trouble, but now that Concubine Tong is pregnant, Kangxi will definitely reconsider, and then she is afraid that it will be difficult for her to achieve her wish again!
No one could have thought of this kind of thing, even if Concubine Tong really had God's help, it would only be once, after all, with her kind of character, it is not difficult to really die, and who can guarantee that Kangxi will let go of this matter. She took a step back today, and she will surely take countless steps forward in the future.
Luluo stood aside, looking at her own mother-in-law who had been silent since she received the news that Concubine Tong was pregnant, her eyes were full of worry, and she couldn't help but persuade softly: "Niangniang, there are accidents in everything, even if Concubine Tong can escape with the child in her belly this time, it doesn't mean that she really doesn't have to be responsible at all!"
Yunxi turned his head and glanced at the gloomy green pothos, stood up with a chuckle, and said in an indifferent tone: "You're right, you just escaped a catastrophe, not a lifetime, the more some things accumulate, the more violent they erupt." The emperor must be very disappointed in the Tong Guifei or the Tong family, even if he is merciful, it is only for a while, if the Tong family does not know how to converge, the future outcome can be expected?"
How many nobles and nobles have been ruined in this self-righteousness, what a scenery Prince An was in the past, not to mention the royal family, I am afraid that the emperor will avoid two points, but now, once he became a bare-bones commander, he has no title and no power, and it is not the same as the decline of life.
It seems that there are always some people who are reluctant to their own situation, think that they have a bamboo in their hearts, do not take others in their eyes, and regret it when they eat the land, but who cares about him! After all, the Tong family has not been arrogant for a day or two, not to mention the old family, it is an emerging family, and I am afraid that there are many people who are not used to their actions. If they don't do it because they didn't find the opportunity, then once someone attacks the Tong family, it will be a swarm, and even if the Tong family is Kangxi's mother's family, I am afraid that it will be difficult for two fists to reach four hands, and they will retreat to the bottom line.
"Bengong has been waiting, waiting to see what will happen to those vicious people in the end!" When Yunxi said this, there was a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth from beginning to end, obviously she had figured it out at this time, and she was no longer worried about Concubine Tong's pregnancy.
Seeing that her mother had figured it out, Lu Luo didn't say more, anyway, Concubine Tong was pregnant, and it was not only her own mother who was affected, so many concubines in the harem, when she received the news at this time, she was afraid that everyone would be uncomfortable. Not to mention that everyone has the ability to make a stumbling block for Concubine Tong, but there are always a few people who can make Concubine Tong suffer, not to mention that there is still a person waiting for Concubine Tong in Cining Palace to have good news!
"Niangniang, don't worry, this matter is very involved, so Concubine Tong is pregnant, the plan will definitely need to be changed, but the Queen Mother is afraid that she is unwilling!"
