Chapter 158: Sudden Enlightenment
"The Empress Dowager has always been kind and kind, since she wants to be rewarded, Xi'er will follow, as for why the Empress Dowager is like this, there will be an answer soon!" Kangxi sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he patted Yunxi's soft cheek calmly to appease her not so calm mood.
There has never been a good for no reason in this palace, only hatred and calculation for no reason, it can be said that as long as it can be used, most people will not think about what will happen to the person they calculate?
Kangxi's love for Yunxi, although it is sometimes on par with Wei's on the surface, but when you really study it carefully, Wei's or others, no one can make him dig out his heart and lungs, and being able to give a word or two of praise is already giving him a lot of face. But the more he pays attention to it, the more he can tolerate her being coveted, even if the empress dowager may just want to use her to achieve a shady purpose, but Kangxi knows in his heart that he can't rise to the top now, otherwise Yunxi will become dangerous if he is not in danger.
Kangxi raised his head, saw Yunxi's breathing appearance, smiled and asked: "With my support, Xi'er doesn't have to worry too much, the Empress Dowager rewards you, that is your reward, and then." "No matter what kind of idea the Empress Dowager has, Kangxi will not let her get her wish, after all, this time is different from the past, even if their ancestors and grandchildren will join forces to fight the enemy together, but those contradictions cannot disappear because of a joint effort.
The positions are different, the practices are also different, Kangxi can now be said to have no way to retreat, he wants to concentrate power, it is impossible to be humble to the Empress Dowager.
Yunxi heard what he said, nodded seriously and said: "The emperor's words are simple, if the concubine takes the things of the queen mother so carelessly, I am afraid it will not be long before the people of the entire harem will think that the concubine will abandon the emperor and become the queen mother." ”
Although Yunxi's words were a little funny, Kangxi's eyes gradually cooled, obviously he thought of Yi Concubine, when Yi Concubine abandoned him and became the Empress Dowager, didn't he think that the Empress Dowager was above him? Although according to his identity, Kangxi must respect the Empress Dowager, but this does not mean that he is willing to see others rank him after the Empress Dowager.
Kangxi, as the co-owner of the world, has his own pride, and it can even be said that from the beginning of setting his own goals, he swept away the people and obstacles that prevented him from going to the top position one by one. He thought he had done well enough, but a harem concubine slapped him in the face with the most authentic attitude.
Kangxi sneered in his heart, he must have a pimple with what Yi Concubine did, otherwise how could he rather spoil Guo Guiren than spoil Yi Concubine, who once made him quite fond of it! Although he still has a lot of scruples in his heart, especially for the family behind the harem concubines, but who is not favored, there has never been more than one concubine in this harem who can represent the family!
If they are smart, even if they are not favored, Kangxi will leave some dignity for them, but it seems that many of the concubines in the harem feel that his patience is unlimited? The tolerance and nostalgia for them are endless? So these people dare to jump out to challenge his authority, and think that he will always turn a blind eye to let them do it! It's really ridiculous, don't look at the surface that there is nothing, but in his heart Kangxi remembers these small accounts clearly.
"What kind of person Xi'er is, I know very well, maybe the other concubines in this harem will not be able to resist the Empress Dowager's means and approach her, but Xi'er will not!" Kangxi's words were categorical, and it seemed that he was firmer than Yunxi himself.
It's just that after thinking about it carefully, Yunxi always felt that something was wrong with Kangxi's words, and lowered her eyelids, she didn't show a smile on her face, but she pondered in her heart. She knows that Kangxi treats her well, compared to other concubines in the harem, in terms of favor, she can rank in the top three, in terms of sincerity, she doesn't say first, at least she can occupy second, but she doesn't think she can get all of Kangxi's sincerity, and even let him fall in love with her from the bottom of his heart, so Kangxi said this either to know the inside story, or to understand her every move. After all, no matter how careful she is, there will be traces left, but because her position has always been clear, she thinks Kangxi must understand this point to protect her all the time, and even comfort her with a firm face at this time.
Kangxi looked at Yunxi's silent appearance, and couldn't help but pick up Fubao, father and son joined hands to coax her happy, and finally appeased the beautiful woman, Kangxi was relieved. After sitting for a while, Kangxi got up and went back to the Qianqing Palace, since the Empress Dowager had other plans, where could he still sit still. However, after he began to review the excerpt according to his temperament, there was an excerpt of the draft, and when he saw the word draft, Kangxi's mind was in a flash, and all the guesses in his heart found the answer at this moment.
Before, whether it was Concubine Yi or Prince An, Fujin or Prince Fujin, they all let the Empress Dowager lose her wife and lose her troops, not to mention, and she also lost a lot of prestige, and now she will put her mind on the draft, which he can understand but may not necessarily accept. However, Kangxi had already made up his mind to govern his people in his own way, and the Empress Dowager thought that she could count everything if she had Horqin's show girl entering the palace, but he just wanted to tell her with the facts that even if there were many show girls from Horqin in this harem, and even in high positions, they had nothing to do with favor and heirs.
He just wanted to cut off her thoughts, and even let the Empress Dowager face up to her current situation, after all, he was not the first emperor, and he would not compromise again and again because of her.
Calculating the time, the triennial general election will have to be held next year, and it is not sudden to prepare for various matters now. Kangxi just pondered for a moment, and then directly picked up the pen and wrote a big 'quasi' word on it.
If the Empress Dowager wants to use the draft to taste her wishes, then he has to use the draft to make her die again and again.
Although not everyone can read the content of the fold, once the things involved have gone through the process and have entered the preparations, it is not difficult for others to think about it.
When Yunxi got the news, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his expression was a little surprised and at the same time a little more abrupt. If the meaning of the former empress dowager is vague, Kangxi has words in his words, and everything makes people unconsciously feel a little uneasy. But after waiting for this news, although Yunxi is not extremely smart, he has faintly come back to his heart.
The Empress Dowager wanted to let Horqin and more Mengbaqi show girls enter the palace, but Kangxi didn't want to follow the old path of the first emperor, and let the show girls of Meng Baqi occupy the entire harem, so there have always been refusals and blocks, the only exception is Concubine Hui, this Concubine Hui is not Concubine Hui, surnamed Borzigit, she was elected to the palace at a young age, Kangxi was nine years old, and then chased Concubine Hui. Since then, there are no concubines of the Borzigit clan in the Kangxi harem, and every time the draft is held, the show girls of Mengbaqi are either given to the royal family of the clan, or they go home with a sign, without exception.
It can be said that the grandfather and grandson have been in a state of game for this matter, if it weren't for too many accidents and things that happened during this period, who won in the end, it's really hard to say.
Now that the three feudatories have been decided, the situation is very good, even if there was Prince An before, but in the end, it is still the Empress Dowager and Kangxi who can occupy the top, in this case, it is not surprising that the two will have other thoughts. It's just that the Empress Dowager's sudden dragging of them into the battle was too sudden, and even if Yunxi could figure out the Empress Dowager's thoughts, she couldn't understand her intentions.
The battle between the Empress Dowager and Kangxi, not to mention that it is in full swing, but it is also extremely nervous, and the discerning person knows at a glance that it is not good to stand in line at this time, but she wants to force them to make a choice, is it possible that these people can persuade Kangxi to be willing to take the show girl of the Eight Banners as a concubine when Kangxi is unwilling?
"Mama, let people pay attention to the movements of Wei Changzai and others, if someone from Cining Palace contacts them, try their best to find out what they talked about? I always feel that the Empress Dowager is going to the draft, and the emperor seems to want to do something about it? In short, this matter is not at all something that a little concubine of mine can get involved, so everything is careful. Yunxi felt that things were not as simple as imagined, not to mention that the battle between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor was becoming more and more intense, but it also had sparks, but I didn't know which of them could be slightly better this time.
"Niangniang's meaning The old slave understands, Wei Chang is good to say over there, but over there in Jingren Palace, the old slave is afraid that he won't be able to intervene?" Xu Mama looked embarrassed, she didn't expect that the battle between Concubine Tong and Wuya would make it so difficult that they couldn't find out the news.
In the past few years, after the hard work and development of Mama Xu, Yunxi's ears and eyes are not to mention all over the harem, but they are also like sparks, blooming everywhere, just waiting for the prairie to burn.
In the past, as long as it was not particularly secret, Mama Xu could inquire about it from others, but this Jingren Palace also became an accident. The battle between the main hall and the side hall made it impossible to spread the news, and many people were innocently implicated. It can be said that in addition to the strange change of attitude of the Empress Dowager in Cining Palace, the most talked-about thing is the battle between Concubine Tong and Wuya nobles.
Yunxi smiled slightly, during this time, she only cared about guarding Prince An's forces like a hedgehog from secretly attacking herself and Fubao, but she forgot that there was still cooperation between her and Concubine Tong, "Since Mama can't find out from our mouths, then go to Mama Wu or Mama Tu to inquire about the news, presumably they should be happy to answer these questions, after all, the cooperative relationship between us has always been maintained." ”
Mama Xu's body was shocked, and she looked at Yunxi with some hesitation and said: "But Niangniang, there has been no movement in the succession of the fourth elder brother, and the Empress Dowager has suddenly changed her attitude, Tong Guifei is afraid that she will think too much, and she will ...... then."
Seeing Mama Xu like this, Yunxi knew that she was worried that Concubine Tong would turn her face with her, so she couldn't help explaining: "I have already told the emperor about the succession of the fourth elder brother, and the emperor agreed to consider it, but because of the unstable situation, he has not made an order, and Mama can tell the other party about this in the past, as long as the people around Concubine Tong are not stupid, they should know how to answer Mama's question." ”
"This ......" Yunxi's words surprised Mama Xu, she thought that there was no hope for this matter, but she didn't want to develop beyond her expectations, but this is good, if this thing can be done, not only will Concubine Tong owe her own mother a favor, but she can also successfully suppress the power of Wuya nobles, so that it will be difficult for her to recover, "Niangniang is wise, slave maid will go to Jingren Palace." ”
Mama Xu is absolutely attentive to Yunxi, from the day she promised Yunxi to accompany her into the palace, she tried all kinds of ways to help Yunxi gain a foothold, although Yunxi has Kangxi to maintain, but many things in the harem are not accurate, and it is impossible to solve everything with pampering, so Mama Xu often thinks a lot and acts more carefully, so there are often some opportunities to make progress are missed. Fortunately, Yunxi has always been very clear about Mama Xu's intentions, and she has no enterprising heart to rush ahead, and the two can be said to hit it off and complement each other.
But now that the situation has changed greatly, Yunxi is in a very dangerous situation, and it is naturally impossible to take the road of winning in stability as before, so I took this opportunity to remind Mama Xu to change her way of doing things appropriately, not to stick to the old ways of doing things, and occasionally find another way, maybe you will get more results.
