Chapter 295: Gossip

After Yi Concubine came back to her senses, she glanced at Mama Shang, and she could guess what she was struggling with when she looked at Mama Shang's expression, but she naturally wouldn't continue to blame her at this juncture, after all, things had come to this point, even she herself didn't expect such a result, she opened her mouth, and there was a worry in her tone: "I can't blame you for this, and I don't blame myself, I can only blame it for being too coincidental." ”

yes, it all seemed too coincidental.

Mama Shang stretched out her hand and poured a cup of tea for Concubine Yi, slowly handed it to her, and said in a low voice: "There are coincidences, but what really worries the old slave is probably the sudden change of the prince, obviously Concubine Zhao's current status has threatened the prince, but the prince doesn't seem to mind at all, and even gets along with the fourth elder brother and them very carefully, could it be that he moved his mind to pull the fourth elder brother and others into his camp?"

Yi Concubine listened to Mama Shang's words, and breathed a sigh of relief as if she had figured it out, and said in a slightly relaxed tone: "It's good to be able to guess the reason, as long as you know that it's not our people who have a problem, it's not a big problem." However, although the prince's idea is good, but the palace looks at the concubine Zhao, and is afraid that she will not be subservient, otherwise why would she take over the fourth elder brother, is it really kind and fearless?"

Shang Mama couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "What Niangniang said is that if this harem is really kind and fearless, most of them will not survive this time, and it is impossible to be promoted from a noble person to a concubine in a short period of time. ”

Yi Concubine's hand holding the tea cup tightened slightly, and she subconsciously took a sip of hot tea, feeling a warm breath spreading from the bottom of her heart, which was a lot better, "Mama is right, this harem can't accommodate good people, no matter how beautiful people are on the surface, they have their own calculations behind their backs, Concubine Zhao's side is the palace that has taken a look, if it weren't for this, the palace would not have ended up today, and even gave others a chance to take advantage of." Said and said with some regret: "If I had known this, this palace should not have provoked her, yes, this harem but everyone who provoked her Suo Yuluo clan, a few of them are pleased, but this palace is not dead, and now I finally got a chance, this palace does not want to regain favor, but self-righteously chooses to hit her head again, so this is not the sin of others, but the sin of the palace itself." ”

Mama Shang looked at Yi Concubine, who was becoming more and more transparent, and couldn't help but reach out and pat her free hand: " Niangniang was also forced to be helpless, if it weren't for Guo Guiren who didn't know how to be grateful, Niangniang wouldn't be so eager for quick success, she just thought that she was a member of Guo Luoluo's family and could sit back and relax, but if Niangniang had protected her for so many years, how could she have such a stable life, but unfortunately this person just couldn't see her situation clearly, and when she regretted it in the future, as for this incident, everything is not too bad, but it is just a few words of instigation, even if it is found, it can be explained. ”

Yi Concubine looked up at Mama Shang's eyes, and nodded after a long time: "Yes! It's just a few gossips, even if this palace doesn't complain, others will complain, it's not a big crime." "Fortunately, they stopped early, otherwise this trip might have really been knocked into the dust.

Mama Shang's eyes flickered slightly, her heart was full of pity for Concubine Yi, her mother just had too many concerns, otherwise according to the original arrangement, even if this favor could not be compared with Concubine Zhao, it was better than most concubines, but unfortunately they were dizzy for a while, thinking that they could compare to Concubine Zhao, but they didn't want the emperor to seem to take no one to heart, but they protected Concubine Zhao at a critical moment, whether it was because Concubine Zhao was favored or because of the three little brothers, in short, they had to change their strategies and strive to increase their capital, so that something really happened in the future and would not be easily abandoned。

"Rest assured, the old slave will take care of everything. "This is the end of this matter, and there should be no further action.

Concubine Yi nodded, as long as this matter is smoothed out, and the crown prince and Concubine Zhao have no accidents, even if they know that the person behind the calculation is her, what can they do? Since this road is not passable, then she has to find another way to go forward, just like Mama Shang said, even if it is for the fifth child, she can't just give up.

In this way, in a hurry, the group finally arrived at the palace, and I don't know if the queen mother realized that her eager attitude hurt Kangxi, or if she was cowardly in her hometown, anyway, when she arrived at the place, she was not so anxious, and she seemed to want to take some time to recuperate and meet people from various Mongolian departments.

Mama Qiao didn't understand the queen mother's plan, so she asked twice, and the queen mother didn't say anything about her. It's just that the entire palace seems to have a depressing atmosphere, especially before moving in, the emperor's cold attitude made them feel quite uneasy, but the queen mother didn't make a sound, and they naturally didn't make a sound.

Qiao Mama put the tea cup in the hand of the Queen Mother, looked at the stunned Queen Mother, and called in a low voice: "Queen Mother, let's take a sip of tea to moisten your throat first!"

"Uh-huh. The queen mother heard Mama Qiao's voice, and answered lightly the moment she came back to her senses. Stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, took a sip of hot tea, as if he had really come back to his senses, looked up at Mama Qiao and said, "But everything is cleaned up?

Seeing that the queen mother still looked like nothing had happened at this moment, Mama Qiao's eyes flashed secretly, but she said truthfully: "It's all cleaned up, as for the emperor's side, he just summoned a few guards to question, and he didn't have any special instructions?" ”

Generally, what happens suddenly is a big article, Mama Qiao knows it in her heart, and the queen mother also knows it in her heart, but before they find out the ins and outs of the matter, they are not good at acting rashly, after all, the prince and Concubine Zhao are standing behind the emperor, and they have obviously displeased the emperor now, and if there is a move, a bad one may follow in the footsteps of the queen mother.

The queen mother's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, she had heard about this matter but didn't care much, but now that she heard what Mama Qiao meant, it should not be just an ordinary exchange, and she couldn't help frowning: "Is the prince looking for a helper?" Or is this the emperor's arrangement?"

As the emperor's favorite son, the prince's every move must be in the spotlight, especially now, if the four elder brothers in a group are not involved, they all have to attract attention when they are all entangled together at once. Since the brothers of the Mongolian tribes passed halfway, they have not bothered to please the prince, but at this time, the prince is not as anxious as later generations to take everything into his own hands, so the contacts between the two sides are not close, and it can even be said that the prince's attitude is slightly cold. And Yunxi's side, it's not that no one is pleasing her, it's just that she herself is too lazy to socialize, and she doesn't want to displease Kangxi, so she was lukewarm from the beginning, and in the end it was Kangxi who spoke, and she accepted these people to give gifts.

However, the crown prince and Yunxi felt that it was nothing, but the others would be wrong and think that this way was feasible, which made the queen mother begin to be sure that she could win over Yunxi, otherwise why would she want to come back so urgently. Now that the two most powerful parties in this palace are about to get together, how can she not intervene.

"Whether it is the emperor's intentions, or the prince's own thoughts, we can't let this matter go, at least we can't stay out of it, so whether it is the prince or Concubine Zhao and the three elder brothers under her name, we have to be friends, so that no matter what happens in the future, this prince, the fourth elder six, the eighth elder plus the fifth elder brother around the mourning family, a total of five elder brothers, always accounts for most of the odds. "The little abacus in the heart of the queen mother played well.

"What the Queen Mother said is that as long as these elder brothers are wooed, the future will not be said to be under control, at least we will have the advantage. "Mama Qiao saw that the Queen Mother already had a plan in her heart, and it was not good to pour cold water on her at this moment, after all, the matter has not been done yet, and no one knows if it can be done in the end?

The Queen Mother smiled faintly after listening to Mama Qiao's words, and said in a low voice: "Things have come to this point, and there is no room for the mourning family to make other plans, even if they can't win them over, they can't offend them anymore, after all, this harem is no longer Horqin's world, and the Queen Mother is gone, and everything will have to rely on us in the future." ”

She thought that the Empress Dowager would give an explanation before she died, but until now, apart from the original forces in her hands, there was nothing else, and Su Malagu did not make any moves, and several times she wondered if the Empress Dowager had not had time to finish her words?

On this trip, she planned to take the opportunity to test Concubine Zhao to see if she could win her over, but she didn't expect that she hadn't done it yet, but the prince first used the fourth child and a few of them to win over Concubine Zhao, although this move did not hinder her, but in a way strengthened Concubine Zhao's power, making her a little clueless. After all, compared to the prince who is like the rising sun, she, the old woman, can be regarded as a waning day.

It's a pity that she found out too late, otherwise she should have an advantage over the prince according to her plan, but it's a pity that it's too late to say anything, and there seems to be a consensus over there, unless something major happens, the relationship between them is unbreakable, which is really tricky.

"That's what the Queen Mother said. Qiao Mama responded, her eyes swept over the queen mother, and she saw that she was so stunned that she began to lose her mind again, and she didn't want to say anything, after all, there are some things that they can only watch no matter how clearly they can see and not be in charge, as for the impact of missing the opportunity, whoever misses it will be on whom, even if they don't want to, they can only grit their teeth and follow their backs, who let them fight from the beginning There is no choice!
